The Express Car Bombarded and Blown Open With Dynamite. MESSENGER WOUNDED, AND THE CON- TENTS OF THE SAFE TAKEN, Strong Probability That the Crime Was Committed by Some of the Dalton Band—Detaile of the Robbers’ Work— Amount of the Plunder Secured Not Yet Known—One of the Most Daring and Successful Raids. Fresno, Cal., Aug. 4.—Passenger train No. 17, southbound on the Southern Pacific, was held up by train-robbers six miles east of Collis last night. The usual methods were employed in getting the traintoahalt. Itis supposed thattwoofthe gang boarded the train in front ofthe baggage car while the engine was watering at Collis. Just before reaching the spot which had evidently been selected for the holdup, two of the robbers crawied over the tank to the engine caband ordered the engineer and fireman to stop the train. One of the rob- bers coveredthe engineer with a revolver while the second bandit performed the same duty forthe fireman. The robber who had charge of the engineer, after compelling him to bring the train toa standstill, forced him to walk ahead of the halted train about 500 yards. OPENED WITH DYNAMITE. With the fireman atthe muzziesof their pistols they went to the express car and de- manded that the messenger open the door, The plucky messenger refused and the band- its then brought dynamite into play. They threw six or seven sticks of the explosive against the sides of the car, completely demolishing it. One of the bombs was thrown under the engine during the bombardment of the express car and injured itconsiderably. Duringallthe time of the dynamite volleys the messenger was -in his car and it is a miracie that he was not killed. He escaped, however, with one broken rib and several minor bruises from the flying splinters knocked from the woodwork of the car by the dynamite. After riddling the car, the masked bandits forced open the safe and took out its con- tents. The amount stolen is not known, as raijl- way and express officials bere claim not to know the amount of money and valuables carried by the train. Little attention was pald to the passengers by the robbers and no attempt was made to relieve them of their purses. After looting the treasure box the gang bade the fireman help them carry the contentsa distance and then galloped off on horseback. The robbers’ faces were masked with lightcloth. No de- talled description ofthe men can be ascer- tained from the trainmen., SACKS OF COIN TAKEN. The train was the south-bound night ex- press leaving San Francisco at 5:30 p.m. The sum contained in the messenger’s safe is thought to have been between $30,000 and $50,000. Several deputy sheriffs from south- ern counties of the State are stated to have been on board the train, but no resistance was Offered to the robbers. Two robbers boarded the tender as the train was pulling out of Collis, about fifteen miles west of Frisco. They covered the engineer and fireman with double barreled shotguns and commanded that orders be obeyed under penalty of death. When train passed Rolindo station the engineer was ordered to stop. The fireman was ordered totouch off with a light the fuse of a dynamite cartridge which the robbers placed on the piston of the driving wheel on the left hand side of the locomotive. The explosion was terrific, breaking the piston-rod and partially disabling the engine. The robbers ordered the engineer to get off the train and walk a short distance along the track while they proceeded to bom- bard the doors of the express car by ex- ploding dynamite cartridges, about eight in all, which tore the doors into splin- ters and smashed the floor of the car. The robbers, masked and completely disguised, entered the express car and covering Louis Roberts, the mes- senger, with double-barreled shotguns, ordered himto openthe Wells, Fargo & Oo. safe. Roberts set about doing this, but was so excited and -nervous that ne forgot the combination and so informed his captors, whothereupon struck him a heavy biow on the head with a gun and threatened to kill him if he did not im- mediately open the safe. With trembling hands he did so and they took out sacks of coin, When the. desperadoes exploded the first cartridge on the engine the passengers put their heads out ofthe windows to. see wrat was goingon, but they drew them back again when they found pistol bullets and buckshot whistling past their ears. MAY BE THE DALTONS. The Sheriff of Fresno County thinks it en- tirely probable that some of the Dalton gang did this job. They have operated in this region before, and Bob and Jim Dalton and another member of their outfit, Wiley Dean, are now serving life sentences for robbinga train on the Southern Pacific at Touwlare last fall. The Daltons first introduced the use of dynamite in opening cars when the messenger showed nerve enough to refuse their orders to unlock the door. This wason Sept. 2 of last year on the Southern Pacific at Samuels, twenty miles from the Rio Grande, This crime was followed by the one near Tou- lare, for which twoof the Daltons are now doing time. Ed and Chariey Dalton, with the Whitly gang,robbed the Santa Fetrain at Adair, I. T.,a few weeks ago, and as they have been closely hunted by the Indian police, it is entirely probable that they left that coun- try for the time and concluded to turn another trick in California. The Sheriff will endeavor to effect their capture. tue | man, who deman@ed their surrender, In stead of surrendering the parties opened fire race their winchesters and Fel Pewat 1 ti inchests ts brought down Reeceand Jim.

BLOODY TRAGEDY ENACTED AT §8T. THIS MORNING. St. Joserna, Mo., Aug, 4.—Julius Clemens, an aged German baker of this place, shot Mrs. Philipena Morganthaler to death at 10:30 o’clock this morning and then blew his own brains out. Some months ago Clemens charged Mrs. Morganthaler, who was histenant, with setting fire to one JOSEPH When the case was called in court Mrs. Mor- genthaier was acquitted. She then insti- tuted suit against Cieméns for $20,000 dam- ages toher character. Attorneys said that Mrs. Morganthaler had a good case, and it is supposed that brooding over the proba- pened of losing his fortune made the baker ane. HACKED TO DEATH. ANDREW J. BORDEN AND HIS WIFE FOUND MURDERED. : FALL River, Mass., Aug. 4.—Andrew J. Borden, a wealthy real estate owner and millman,and his wife, were found dead at their home, 92 Second street, about noon. Both had been mutilated about .the head and face with an ax, cleaver orrazor. Mr. Borden lay ona sofa In a room on the top floor of: the house. His head had been cut and gashes from four to six inches long were found on his face and neck. Mrs. Borden was in her own cham- ber on the upper floor and the condition of her face and head was the same as that of her husband. She lay face down- wards in,the bed, which was a veritable pool of blood. The police were notjfied and im- . mediately began an investigation. Up to noon no implements which could have been used in the commission of the crime had been found. Mr. Borden had been seen on the street an hour hefore he was found dead. Some think it is case of suicide. CRIME NEWS. A COON HUNTER FIRES UPON HIS COM- PANIONS. SEYMouR, Ina., Aug. 4.—Last night a party of local sports, consisting of William Greer, Jake Leortz, Sporty Wilson, Bill Wilson and John Firman, left the city for a coon hunt, taking with them a good supply of provisions and snake bite medicine. They camped out inthe woods all night and succeeded in bagging core coons. This g while making preparations for their return home Greer suddenly became dissatisfied with their catch and insisted on staying all day. The other members of the a were in the wagon and refused to stay, whereupon, without waeeeeee he poured the contents of a double- barreled shot-gun into them, and injured Bill Wilson and Jake Leortz seriously. He then turned and fled, and has not been seen since. No effort has as yet-been made by the police to capture him. DASTARDLY OUTRAGE. LONDON, Aug. 4.—A dastardly outrage was perpetrated last evening near Chislehurst, Kent. As Miss Woods, daughter of the Vicar of Bickley, and a niece of Right Hon. George Goschen, Chancellorof the Exchequer, was walking along the roadin the company ofa friend, they were approached by two men carrying guns. The men accosted Miss Woods and her friend. Their advances were.re- pulsed, and Miss Woods’ companion fled and succeeded in escaping, but Miss Woods was not so fortunate. She was assaulted and fired upon. The shot took effectin her face. She was rendered unconscious by the wound and was found lying in the road in that condition by asearching party, which was organized as soon asthe alarm had been given by her friend. Her assailants have disappeared. CRIME BREVITIES. Burgiars entereG a number of saloons last night at Lexington, Wyo. Pat Fagan was the only loser; $3.

Chicago Stands a Chance for Part of the Bluff Money. a DEMOCRATIC CAUCUS PROGRAMME BE- ING CARRIED OUT. Dangers Still Ahead of the World’s Fair Appropriation—A Vote to Be Taken on the Measure at 1 O’Clock To-Mor- row — Senator Colquitt’s Condition Precarious— Washington News. WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 4.—Everything is moving along smoothly this morning in the programme arranged yesterday by the Dem- ocratic caucus. Officers of the Fair have come to the conclusion that the best thing to be done is to accept the situation and en- deavor to pass the Durburrow bill rather than continue the fightand take the chances of getting nothing. In accordance with this advice the Demo- cratic World’s Fair members in Congress will not resort to obstructive tactics, but will vote with their colleaguesto carry out the caucus agreement. The Republican mem- also will not delay matters, this course being taken onthe advice given Representative Hopkins of Illinois by Director-General Davis as tothe wishes of the World’s Fair man- agers, but the Republican policy will be to make it very plainthatthe whole responsi- bility rests with the Democrats, and they propose tokeep their record clear by stead- ily voting for the $5,000,000 proposition, The World’s Fair men have come tothe conclusion that the agreement will bs carried out in good faithand that a square chance will be given them to pass the Dur- burrow bill without any more filibustering, -and thatiffilibustering beagain restored to to prevent the consummation of the causus agreement, arule will be brought in to stop dilatory tactics. Mr. Kilgore andother possible filibusters also understand thata rule will be brought in to stop them, if a rule be necessary. When the biN is brought toa vote the World’s Fair men are confident they can carry the $2,500, - 000 billon its merits. It is realized that the pathway even to the $2,500,000 proposition Is full of dangers, and that on a vote a majority may be found in the House against the difl. Even after it passes the House the billinthe Sen- ate will have torunallthe dangers of a Dill which, though having a majority in its fa- vor, may be delayed by a few men until the sentiment in the Senate infavor of an early adjournment overruns all things else, Then there is danger that amendments may be made on which the two Houses will differ. The World’s Fair men expéct Sunday closing to ve incorporated itn the Durburrow bill and say that they will have to accept it. An effort is beIng made to have a vote on the Durburrow bill to-morrow, and to bring about the earliest possible Congressional ad- journment. Mr. Riley this afternoon moved to take the vote ati p. m. to-morrow. Mr. Riley was Chairman ofthe Peace Committee often. Hesaidthis afternoon that he was sure the bill would pass and by a handsome majority. The sundry civil bill has been sent to con- ference. But there it will doubtless be held until the House has disposed of the Durbur- row bill, for the Republican Senators are de- termined that there shall be no sharp prac-* tice, astheytermit. With the World’s Fair amendments the bill can be easily disposed of, So itisimprobable thatthe conferrees will meet, or at least report, before Monday. Representative Hopkins of lIilinois, speak- ; ing ofthe Republican policy in the House, said: ‘‘Wedo not believe at allin what has been Gone; but Director-General Davis, sev- eral members of the National Commission and others have told us thatthey are satis- fled.to take the new Durburrow bilias the best way to end the struggle, which they don’t want to further prolong, and we will not put any obstacles in its way; but we propose to keep our record straight all along the line as having favored the $5,000,000 proposition and in favor of the House carrying out the will of the majority and not yielding to a iot of Kickers,’’ The Brazilian Commissioner to the Colum- dian Exposition had an auftence with the President this morning. ‘There were no formal speeches, The condition of Senator Colquitt does not improve.

C., Aug. 4.—In the Senate to-day the first business (thirteen Repub- licans and twelve Democrats being present and making little over halfa quorum) was to act on the House resolution extending ap- propriations to Aug. 10. Mr, Allison, Chair- man of the Committee on Appropriations, asked unanimous consent that the Senate concur tn this extension. Mr. Pascoe (Dem., of Florida.) inquired if this was likely to be the last extension. Mr. Allison: ‘‘It would give me pleasure to inform the Senator {fil were able to do so, My impression is that we are nearer adjourn- ment now than we were four or five day sago (laughter). Ihope before the expijration of these five days the surrounding difficulties in our pathway may all be solved favorably.’’ Mr. Pascoe said that if these motions were to be repeated he thought it better to passa resolution continuing all appropriations till December. Mr. Allison said an extension of all appro- priations until December would fall short of providing for the necessary expenditures of the Government. That should only be re- sorted to at the last moment oF time. He thought there was a prospect of the present condition of affairs being brought to a con- clusion and moved a recess wotil 1:30 in order to give time for the extension resolution to be engrossed and approved.

A Oorrespondent Gathers Details of the Frightful Calamity, NEw York, Aug. 4.—A London correspond- ent gives additional details of the recent | disaster at St. Gervais; near Mont Blanc. St. Gervais is a little village of 1,900 inhabitants, dropped down on the right bank of the stream Bon-Haut, a name which, curiously enough, means ‘‘good stream.’* Another river, called the Fayet, fows near by. St. Gervais is af- fected by excursionists, and is a great resort for people troubled with gout and kindred diseases. It is in the’ middle of a narrow gorge, with Mont Blanc @imly seen in the dis- tance. There is a big hotel, built of stone cut out of the mountain and divided into tive wings. It s the son, and the hotel was fairly filled with ests, most of them French and Swiss 4 very few Americans or Englishmen. rom windows in this hotel the people could out and see the Bionnassay glacier, from the foot of which the little river, hardly More than a creek, flowed. ; . Some time before the night of July 11 part ofthis big glacier dro to the stream at its foot and The water from the mo accumulate and to press against this dam and when the eighty guests of the hotel went to bed that night a greatwall of water hung over them, held in check only by the stones and ice and debris of thig misplaced glacier. The ascent was so steep t dam seemed al- most overhead. The enormous pressure Of the water grew greater and greater until shortly after 2 o’clock in the morning, en all the people of the hotel were asleep. Then It broke through the dams, carrying with it enormous boul- ders and huge biocks of stone weighing tons upontons, Allthis vast Mass crashed down upon the stone walls of tiie hotel and crushed them In like so many eggshells. There was no time for even a thought of escape. It was like the rushing of an express train upon them. Few ped with their lives. None in the dir th of this de- scending mass of stones €nd water got out alive. Not that they were Growned, although the water swelled intoa t torrent many feet above their heads. y were crushed by the huge cakes of ice and the heavy moun- tain boulders. Bodies were found cut In two, with mem- bers disjointed, and here and there were found the arms and legs of people for whom notrunks to fit could be found. Some esti- mates place the loss of life at 115, No human foresight could have foreseen or averted this wget te + ye The danger was remote and the possibility of a giacier drop- ping intothe stream had been thought of, ut as it had never occurred within the mem. ory of man in that place the tourists usedto discuss it and go to bed laughing and talking with each other over the possi lity. The bathing establishme of St. Gervais was made upoffive wings, Four of these were completely wrecked and one is still standing. At supper the night of e disaster there were eighty guests and thérty-five servants in the establishment. Twehty-five of these lived in the wing which was not totally wrecked and so enon pad. Most of the others were killed. This what Mr. Payrand, whose room in the wing that was not wrecked, says of the night: ‘‘Iwas awakened about 9:30 by a roaring noise, by the shaking of e house, which threw me out of bed and against the window ofmy room. It was a dark night, but as I clung to the sllland looked out I saw a black torrent of water with great blocks of ice sweep throughthe yard of the bathing es- tablishment. e ’ ‘ ‘Great masses of -stong. du@_wo0d an twisted boughs as large a ’ house were fruried against the hotel and crashed through and throughit. From a far wing of the Dathing place Isawthrese persons up to their breastsin water trying to wadeto a place ot saftety. The next minute they dis- appeared and the waters went over them. **4liabout me were loud shrieks, and I. clung to the table In my room, thinking that if my place were swept awaylI might save myself with that. ‘**The whole thing was over in ten minutes. it seemed to me, although the water did not subside for many days, und the valiey is still strewn with all sorts of rocksand debris. I am told that those rocks which we found in the bottom ofthe gorge when we came here were brought here centuries ago by a similar damming up and breaking away of the river.’’ All the bodies of the killed, except those covered by the deposit of slime and material brought down from the mountain, were shot down the river Fayet into the broader stream the Arve and carried along with the furni- ture and wreckage, church ornaments, shoes, altars, etc., into French territory. Here a number of gendarmes carried on a horrible fishing for corpses with grappling- irons. They stood on the banks and wherever inthe riverthey could get a foothold and threw out these iron hooks into the bodies that floated by, bringing them on shore and laying them out in rows, All the corpses were naked, The awful force of the current was such that it tore away everything from its victims. All were wounded in some way, and It is not so bad to think that death came to them without the prolonged intensity of suffering which a long struggie entails, Thus far 102 bodies have been recovered and more are picked up along the banks day by day. All the carboiic acid in the world could not wash out the horrible effluvium that pervades all this region, Of course with the mutilation of these bodies identification has been in many cases impossible and in every case difficult. One of the most awful sights was thatof the zgendarmes cutting away wedding rings from the fingers of women whose hands were so swollen that it wasimpossible to remove them in any other way. This was the only means of ideatification, and the tender in- scriptions in many of these circletsof gold made the thing all the more pathetic. A mother and child clasped so firmly in each other’s arms that force hadto be used to pry them apart was one of the pictures on the banks of the Arve. Alithe bodies not identified were photo- graphed, but these pictures afford only the faintest possible clues for identification. As at Johnstown, a great number will have to be buried in nameless graves. Just now these corpses are labeled and numbered and are known only by their numbers. MILL CREEK SEWER ACCIDENT.

FRICK AND POTTER ADMITTED TO BAIL THIS MORNING, What Amalgamated Society Men Say of the Prosecution of the Charge—Trouble Threatened at Duquesne-A Militia Regiment Ordered There-—The Case of Private Iams. PiTTsBURG, Pa., Aug. 4.—The officials of the Carnegie Steel Co. take the matter of their position as defendants on the charges of murder very coolly. Concerning the ac- tion Mr. Lovejoy said: ‘*‘The company has not and will not disturb itself over these suits. We agree with Judge Ewing that there is very little standing for the plaintiffs inthiscase.. Whenitisalleged that we are arbitrary in our refusal to arbitrate with the workmen, it must be remembered that they have conceded us everything, except the right to make individual contracts. One of our reasons for preferring to make contracts with each man rather than with an irresponsible committee, isthat it ls a matter of protection to our- selves, Wethinkit our right to make our own contracts in our own way. The bring- ing of these suits will not change our policy in the least. Our course is fixed and unal- tered.’’ The Carnegie company officials plainly in- dicate that they consider their arrest is the consummation of a threat that they would be arrested unless they agreed to arbitrate. One of the leading Amalgamated men of Homestead said: ‘‘The officials of the com- pany are undoubtedly, responsible for the murders that took piace at Homestead on July 6. Those fellows wiil try by one way or another to dodge and escape the law, and may succeed in doing so by means of the wealth that backs them. I don’t think that if one of them were to shoot any of us fel- lows that he would be punished, for they have influence and money, and that seems to count for everything these times.’’ **If they break up organized labor, the men will secretly combine to reform revolution- ary societies, which will be bad for this country. Itis a bad policy to break up the Amalgamated Association, for it isa safe or- ganization of labor and very conservative. Iamin hearty favor of our lodges voting that a Board of Arbitration be asked for to settle the Pittsburg troubles. We asked it in Homestead, and why not agree to it in Pitts- burg? It will be for the best, but I cannot say what will be done.’’ POTTER’S BOND $10,000, i Supt. Jonn A, Potter, of the Home-| stead mill and his two assistants, James De- voy and Nevin McConnell, charged by Hugh Ross, for the strikers, with murder, were re- leased on $10,000 baileach ina brief hearing before Judge Ewing this morning. Mr. Pot- ter surrendered himself to the Court the mo- ment it was opened. He entered accom- panied by his attorneys, Knox & Reed, and safely passed constables waiting for him at the door. Mr. Potterspent the night pleas- antly with friends in the East End. Alderman King lugged his docket into court on the order from Judge Ewing, and Mr. Potter waived a hearing. McConnell and Dovey were brought from the jail andthe three were placed in the prisoners’ box, viewed by nearly five hundred persons, many of whom were workmen. On the formal ap- plication for bail District Attorney Burleigh addressed the Court. ‘*I am requested tosay, Your Honor, that the prosecution will make no attempt to pre- vent the release on ball of these men.’’ ‘**T am satisfied,’’ replied the Court, Messrs. A. W. & R. B. Mellon, bankers, signed the bonds, Judge Ewing at first ob- jected to these men signingall the bonds, but he said he would accept their personal bond for forty times the amount without hesitation. On the application of Lawyer Knox the Court instructed that Mr. Frick be admitted to $10,000 bail Dy the officers going to his house to secure his signature. The Mell ons also signed this bond. FEELING AT HOMESTEAD. Down at Homestead there is uneasiness over the verdict of the Coroner’s jury, dis- satisfaction because of Judge Ewing’s rulings and downright anger be- cause the constables allowed Dovey and McConnell to visit friends in Pittsbure. They are talking law on every corner and when they have discussed it for a few min- utes invariably endin a denunciation of the Constables, Gegher and Stewart, because they did not ‘‘slap’’ Dovey and McConnell into jailat the moment they reached Pitts- burg. It Goes not appear that the unfavorable remarks of the court hasany such depress- ing effecton the men as would cause any weakening. To-day not a single application for position was sent in by any old employes. The leaders claim there are jothers taketheir places and maintain an unbroken front even if they should go away. At the same time the arrests have not frightened the non-union men inthe works atall. At least none came out this morning, Thomas Bowen, the striker arrested when the militia was called uponto disperse the crowd at Munhail station yesterday evening, was charged before Alderman Gripp with un. lawful assemblage and is held in $1,000 bail for appearance ata hearing next Tuesday at 2o’clock. The information was madé by Deputy Sheriff Gray, and it is understood that a number of others will be included in the same information, as there Were several more present at the time of Bowen’s arrest that were equally as gulity as he. CAPT. HINES MAY DIE. Capt. Hines of the Pinkertons, who was shot in the Homestead riot, is in a serious condition, and itis feared will die. He is still at the Homeopathic Hospital. Capt. Hines kad charge ofthe Pinkertons who at- tempted to take possession of the mill prop- erty and was wounded in the first volley from the bank. The situation at the Union mills is about the same. The reports of the opposing fac- tions are so conflicting that it is dificult to etan accurate estimate of the situation. The firm claims to have 150 mefiand five de- partmentgin operation, while the strikers say that not more than twenty skilled men are at work and that only the plate and guide mills are running. we h ad. I donot anticipate any trouble after the militia gets there.’’ An Amalgamated man and locked out worker, who was one of a committee which went to Duquesne last evening to investigate the trouble reported, returned this morning, To a reporter he said: ‘‘There is no use guising the fact that the men there are all ready to go back. In fact the poorer paid are scrambling to get the positions of fifty or sixty men who will bethe victims, e mill is not to.start until Monday, but 600 applica-~ tions have been made already. Last evening Isaw six men, who had joined the Amal- g@amated Association on Wednesday night walk up and enter the miilyard, They went to the company’s office, and entered their names for positions. I tried to argue with them, but they replied that they had to pro- tect themselves, and as others were flocking in they would lose their jobs. This will be the third strike there in a little over a year.’’ This, morning twenty Homestead men anes to Duquesne to attempt tostem the é. This afternoon it is said that the reason for the ordering of the militia to Duquesne to- day was because several persons who tried to go to work were held back bya mob. No vio- lence was offered, but threats were made, and the Superintendent feared bloodshed, t to enter the works they were ke he d to call rf ATTACKED BY UNION MEN. DUQUESNE, Pa., Aug. 4.—This morning a mob of 300 attacked a party of sixty non- union men as they were entering the steel works to make repairs. The mob was armea with clubs and stones, and in the fight the foreman of the mill, Stagles, and aworkman were seriously injured, and a dozen others were more or less hurt. The Sixteenth Regiment is now on the ground, and no more trouble is apprehended. Two companies will remain to guard the works. It is stated that all but about fifty of the old men will return to work... PRIVATE IAMS. HIS FATHER Tw@26 WHY THE MILITIAMAN RE- FUSED TO RETRACT. GRAFTON, W. Va., Aug. 4.—The father of Private Iamsiof Homestead fame was met on the accommodation train between Grafton and Fairmount, W, Va. The elder Iamsisa farmer in the central part of the State. He is very proudofhis son’s pluck, and says: **He is a brave little fellow.’’ He said also that the reason his son refused to retract his words on the camp ground was because of a long standing quarrel between the boy and the Lieutenant who reported him, and his son said he would rather die than retract or apologize after being reported by the Lieutenant. Mr. Iams is'very bitterin his denunciation of Gen. Snowden and Col. Streator and seems very confident of winning his suit against them. His son, he said, ‘‘will secure a rein- statement in his company just to show those upstarts that they don’t know it all, and will then resign. ’’ SUED THE CHIEF. Nina Marshall’s Action for Against Maj. Harrigan. Attorney Marshall F. McDonald filed a $10,- 000 damage sult to-day against Chief of Police Harrigan and other police officialsin the in- terest of Nina Marshall, the Pine street sport- ing house keeper, based upon the alleged re- fusal of the police authorities to accept bail forthe Marshall woman when her place was. raided. The style of the suit is Nina Marshall against Lawrence Harrigan, William Young, Robert Willlams, Thomas Boyd and George Miller.

Wponthe hillside above Page street was a deep gully, the natural outlet of the water fromthe country above. A year ago Page street had been filled up across this gully, leaving a small culvert to carry off the ordinary water. This culvert had long ago been choked up and the recent storm had filled the deep basin tothe brim, making a lake two acres in extent and forty-five feet deep. '-On Monday there appeared a crack three inches wide on the lower side of the fill, but there was nothought of immediate danger. Sud- denly last night the fill let go, and with a mighty rush the vast body of water swept Inten min- utes the whole thing was over, and the work of rescue began. A general alarm of fire w sounded, and allthe ambulancesand pa wagons in the city were on the scene. Men, women and children were fished out of the souete and wrecks extending nearly halfa mile. water had carried away the gas-pipe and left everything in darkness. It is possible that the extent of the loss of life may be increased. The city had been fotified of the threatened danger from the mass of water the graded streets and-has been making an outiet for the water during the last few days/ The water has been held there since the phenomenal rainfall of last week and had@ gradually undermined the fill, which wags thirty-five feet deep. When the softened earth gave way last night, earth, sidewalks, trees, houses and human beings were hurled. down the grade towards Concord street, some thousand yards away. The loss on property, at a low estimate, is $50,000, and the loss of Hie is still uncertain. Mrs. August Adam’s body was re- covered this morning at 10 o’clock, The police have been at work since daylight searching for many other possible dead and thousands of people have collected to see the terrible devostation of the flood: The electric carline was washed out and had to build a new terminal this morning below the scene ofthe flood.

They Allow Themselves to Grow Old and the World Néglécts Them. From the Chicago Herald. “‘Why should 4 woman atthe age of forty be, inany sense of the word, passe?’’ asked Mrs. Terhune the other day at the Monona Lake assembly. And then she answered the question in a paper that was full ef the simplest yet the saddest and most pathetic sentences that one is likely to hear for many a day. Mrs. Terhune pointed out that after the age of +p the mental forces of woman are at their st,and yetthe sunset of her life is darkened. Take the average case. A woman of 20 marries, She is handsome, intelligent and educated. She has read, she has bathed a little in the sea of thought and looked with wonderment uponits Diilows. She has even dreamed of voyages out there where state) ships of splendid minds are grasping ail the wings that blow and re pushing for the port of progress, And then she turns to her duties as wife. At rst she foliows her reading and tries to keep up with the times, but it keeps her busier now thanit did. Then the children come, and she is so harried. Her work is so unend- ingand so exacting. She finishes one task only to find it has brought héertothe threshold of a hundred hew ones. she thinks some- times of the culture she Is losing, but she has notimé. Here are duties that Will not be waved aside. She isa good mother, and her clilldren shall not be neglected. She loses her touch with the women whose cares are lighter. She forgets much that sts once knew well. She bends SVery energy that the children may have advantages. She would feel that she had done a selfish, an un- pardonable thing if she sat down to read or to study when there were tasks demanded of her by her husband or her children. Presently she sees that the. boys and girls havé discovered that mother does not know. How quickly children come to that! They gompare her with some one and she suffers. fithowt meaning it or knowing It She loses interest in the things that interest them. She never would have thought she could do that.

She goes her weary way till the day is done, and even in sleep she dreams of toll. ing. All her associates drift further and further from her. Her circle narrows till she stands in the center—alone, There is not a throb from her brain that fis answered bya thought from the world, and she knows it.

FULL TEXT OF THE DOCUMENT MADE PUBLIC TO-DAY. It Is Given Out in Reply to Certain Com- ments Contdined tn a Cablegram From Rome=The Latest Phase of ths Fari- bault School System Controvérsy— Other Letters to Be Published. Rome, Atiz. 8.—From a high source in the Vatican it is learned that the Holy Father is greatiy pleased by an effort oh the part of Mgr. Cor- rigan toestablish the inéexactnéss of one of the statements in the recent papal letter to the bishops of the province of New York. The Archbishop in a letter to the Pope; after the consecration of the new Bishop of Brooklyn, said that a threat had been made to His Holl- hess that & ctilturkampf would break out in America if his Holiness ventured to condemn the Faribault and Stillwater sctiool ar- rangements. The Pope repliei that no such threat had beén miade. Mer. Corrt- gan, to prove his point, collected a number of quotations frdm Afclibishop Ireland’s memorialandad from the letter of Cardinal Gibbons that seemed fo bear a different sense, and forwarded them to members of the Sacred College; wrapped up in separate copies of the letter of the Pope. These quotations are not to the point. They al- ludé only In @ general manner to & remote danger overhatiging the church in the event certain false pretensions made there recently were permitted to grow, and not to the possibility of the condemnation of two small schools resulting in a culturekampf, The effort of the Archbishop of New York to put a different construction uponthe matter, in view of the Popeé’s explicit statement, is re- garded aS an act of great disrespect to his holiness. THE ARCHBISHOP’S LETTER. New Yoru, Aug. 4.—Archbishop Corrigan was seen this mofning at his residence in re- lation to a cable from Rome charging him with disrespect to the Pope. The Arch- bishop said he was perfectly willing to give out for publication the ietter which was sent by him and his fellow- bishops to his Holiness, Pope Leo XIIl., andif this letter gives good reason for the charge of dis- respect to the Pope he(the Archbishop) is wiiling to stanadbyit. Hedeciined, however, to give for publication the letters which he senttothe Pope previousto June 13, claim- ing that what he wrote tothe Pope was ‘‘his own private Dusiness.’’ The Archbishop continued: ‘*If Archbishop Ireland of St. Paul will publish his ‘memorial’ lam willing to pub- lish preceding letters. This parochial school schemé of Faribault is nothing new tn this country.

Most Holy Father: The apostolic letter which your Holiness deigned to write to us, the pastors Of the ecclésiastical prov- ince of New York, has been joyfully received and most willingly aceépted. For it and for the rescript published in the controversy pro- posed by the Most Reverend Archbishop of 8t Paul, we réturn Your Holiness our best thanks. With all our strength we always é61- déavor to remove dissention among the pastors and keep inviolate the bonds of charity amongst all for the promotion of the spiritual welfare of the faithful and to foste? and increasé union with the apostolic see. Nor do we deém that wé have failed in this, the greatest of pastorai duties, by opening éur mind to your holiness as we were induéed to do, notin adpirit of strife, but through deep sense of our pasteral office. Nor did we suppose in like man- nér that our letter would suggest even the slightest doubt of our obédieite to the 586 of eter, both betause we acted simply in the ischareé of our duty, as aisu because it is well khown that we have always and chéerfully obeyed thé orderand advice of Your Holiness.

Jailer Kraemer Was then quietly notified and a thorough search of the cellar and all the rooms connected with the kitchen was made, but without discovering tne runaway. A description of Davis was telephoned within | an hour to all the police stations in the city, and was read off at the 11 o’clock roll call at all the main stations, so that his recapture before night is probable. He is about 38 years old, of medium size and has a long face of light brown complexion. He has a large nose, a short, black mustache, a dimple in his chin and a small scar on his left temple. Two of his fingers are crooked, as if broken at one time, and there isascar on his right thumb. Heisalittle hard of hearing, and when he made his escape he was in his shirt sleeves. ' DAVIS CARPER. Davis was arrested June 3 by Detectives Al- lender and Smith for fraudulently represent- ing himself as the St: Louls agent of a New York detective agency. He had led une Joe Whitehead, a Pullman car porter, to believe that he could get hima good salaried posi- tion in the New York secret service, and Whitehead was foolish enough to pay nim $200 for the position. He wrote several letters to Whitehead, making it appear that they Were written at the New York office J concern, and signing them Board of Managers,’’ and it was one of ese letters that brought about his exposure ndcapture,. Whitehead+got suspicious and aid the matter before the Chie! of Police, and Davis’ arrest followed. A gold watch,a loaded revolver, and one of his bogus secret service letters to Whitehead, ready for mall- ing, were found on him. He- confessed everything, and made no defense whatever. Me was held for the Grand-jury, and was in- dicted a couple of weeks ago for fraud. Dayis lived at 1514 Morgan street, and for the last two or three years has been a sort ‘of business solicitor for two or. three Jawyers at the tour Courts. He admitted thathe used to get cases for acertain at- torney, the lawyer paying him a dollar or twofor his services in each casé, and oc- casionally he solicited for other attorneys. In this way he got acquainted with a number of people about the Four Courts, including detective work.occasionally for some of the attorneys and in time came to be known among his colored acquaintances as ‘‘Davis, the detective.’’ HOW HE ESCAPED. etal., but the newspaper accounts of that memorable jaii delivery have no mention of Fone’s name in that connection. Fone is now in Chicago. ESCAPED FROM THE OLD JAIL. There were several! jail deliveries from the old jailon Sixth street, where the Laclede escaping atonetime. This was the first year of the war,and only stx or seven of the whole party were recaptured. The most sensa- tional escape from the old Sixth street jail was that of Charley Noyes in 1863. Noyes came here inthe early partof the war from Chicago, where he had had some experience as a private detective, and with the assist- ance of Frank P. Blair he secured a position in the postal department as asort of secret service inspector. He was what they called a high roller among the boys, played faro, took | in all the shows and had a good time gener- ally. He made the acquaintance of a young man named Horde, who was check clerk of the local office of the United States Express Co. on Fourth and Vine streets. Horde slept in the company’s office and was trusted with a key tothe safe. One night he put $70,000 in paper money into a valise and left the valise near the door. During the night Noyes opened the door and took out the valise and the next morning $60,000 of the money was shipped to New York in a trunk by a confederate named Smith. Horde was found in bed the next morning inan insensible condi- ition. He hadlockedthe door after SS ee Noyes took the valise and slipped into bed and chioroformed himself. He was finally re- stored to consciousness, and of course, | claimed that he had been chioroformed Dy: the robber or robbers. It required some fine deteetive work to fasten the robbery on Noyes and Horde, but Capt. Bill Lee and De- tectives Larry Harrigan and John Egan were equal to thetask assignedthem. Horde was the first to weakenand Noyes was then ar- rested at Toledo, where he had gone to look for Tommy True, a _ »pro- fessionable bank robber, who was reported by Noyes to have been seen in St. Louis a few days before the robbery. Noyes was uiider suspicion all the time, and was” being watched while he was himseif tensibly working on the case as a detective. The trunk with $60,000 was recovered, but what became of the other $10,000 was never learned. All of the men implicated In the robbery, including a brother of Charley Noyes, were tried and. convicted. Noyes was to serve twelve years in the penitentiary as his punishment, but he took an appeal, and several detectives, and he soon wanted to | While the case was pending made his escape become a detective himself. He did a little | from the St. Louis jail. He represented to two ofthe deputy jailers, who were sonsof the jaller, that the missing $10,000 he -had buried ina lotin Stoddard’s addition, and they wereto digit upfor himand get half the money for theirtrouble. They couldn’t find the money, however, and took Noyes out Hotel now stands, as high &s thirty prisoners | Warner would also come here, To-day he has an appointment in Ralls County and Sat- urday heis duein Trenton, Grundy County. After the meeting to-day Chairman Both- well said: *‘*‘Our committee will get down to business to-morrow, and we will begin mak- ing appointments at once. We intend, of course, to make this a genuine campaign, and Republicans in every county, town and towpship will bereached. As you can say, we have already laid in a Dig stack of literature, which will be distributed everywhere, conveying to the good peo- ple of Missouri the arguments why the Republican party sbould succeed. The opening meeting in Sedalia last week was a@ grand success and the committee feels encouraged #nd full of hope and enthusiasm forthe coming campaign. Maj. Warnerisa splendid campaigner, and everywhere he goes heinspires enthusiasm. People who have been rock-ribbedin their Democracy in past years are realizing that Missouri would be renefited by going Republican, Aftall events we will give our time and attention from now on to the day of the election, aiding this cam- paignin every way,and we areconfident, too, that the next Governor of Missouri will be Maj. Warner.’’ HELP EXPECTED FROM LEONARD. Collector Henry Zeigenhein, who was standing by, remarked that Leverett Leon- ard, the People’s party candidate for Gov- ernor, Was a good man, and that he would polla big vote. This caused Chairman Both- well to remark thatthe buik of these votes would come from the Democratic ranks. Ex-Chairman John McFall of the City Com- mittes was also a visitor, and he informed ‘Chairman Bothwell that Warner would sweep the city like a Kansas cyclone. Congressional Candidate Bartholdtand Chairman Michael Foerstel of the City Committee also had some cheering things to tell the leaders of the State Committee. At to-morrow’s meeting reports from many places in the State will be presented by Sec- retary Hall. He is in correspondence with the County Committees everywhere, and expects to keep posted regarding the situa- tion in every district. Stone Was Once an Editor.

A regiment so officered would deserve to be hissed ouf of encampments of regiments No Pinkerton gang should be permitted to sneak into any efcampment disguised as citizen soldiers. If what Streator did was not in obedience to law, he disgraced him- selfand his uniform. If it was in accord- ance with the law of Pennsylvania, then her militia service isa disgrace to the State, and with all her wealth that State is a dis- grace to the Union. _ CARNEGIB revels in the enjoyment of his Scottish domain while his employes are under charges of murder growing out of an attempt to increase his millions by op- pressive methods openly condemned by him. With the power to prevent all of the violence, bloodshed and misery at Homestead, and with his convictions pressing him to that course, he yielded to greed and sneaked away to let others do for him what he dared nottry. With the opportunity to: win honor and gratitude, he has chosen from the lowest of motives to earn contempt and detestation. With all of his millions Carnegie is a more piti- able object than the poorest of his victims. a In turning the search light of investi- gation on the mess of political corrup- tion feeding upon this municipality the Post-DIsPATCH has two objects in view. One is to vindicate its own position and work and the other is to lay the founda- tion for the purification of the adminis- tration by ballot and for the radical re- form of methods under which public abuses have been heaped up beyond the point of endurance. The Post-DISPATCH’s fight is the people’s fight. a —— —_ Compulsory Arbitration. From the Review of Reviews. The law has permitted Mr. Carnegie and Mr. Frick to eonsolidate great interests and to perpetuate their unified powers by means ofincorporation. Why should not the law say that all corporations employing more than a specified number of men should, un- der certain carefully defined conditions, be obliged to arbitrate points of difference aris- ing between them and thet. workmen ana to accept the results of such arbitration? If capitalists object to such restrictions there is nobody to compel them to avail themselves of the advantages of incorporation, Hiding behind corpo- ration methods, employersare learning to shirk that personal and individual responsi- bility that formerly mitigated some of the horrors of industrial conflict. The demand for compulsory arbitration in the case of largeemploying corporations is reasonable, and it is necessary forthe well being of the State. Thecommonwealth of Pennsylvania hasjsome rights that deserve consideration; andall this social turmoiland greatcost of military interference at Homestead would have been avoided by the simple expedient of a law compelling Mr. Frick to justify his new scale upon demand of the men, in a court of arbitration. If he had been sustained, the men could have done nothing else than go back to work peaceably. If they had chosen to rebel against the court’s decision, the sharp con- demnation of public opinion, backed up by the force of the civil authorities, would have made their position hopelessly weak. Prop- erty massed In the corporate form holds at present an undue advantage over mere in- dividual men, The creature Is tending some- what to overshadow the creator. The work- men at Homestead had better abandon their insane and criminal resort to weapons of violence, and use the grand weapon that their position as sovereign American freemen givesthem. Their remedy is at the ballot. The Drift Toward Socialism. From the Boston Herald. If Mr. Carnegie, with his many millions, is an illustration of what protection can do for an energetic capitalist, it is obvious that there are any number of wage earners whocan see no reason why, after such an example has been set, Congress should not turn its attention to the work of seeing what it can do to directly promote the work of the wage earners. In effect Mr.Powderly affirms that the Government should fix the wages of those employed in protected industries,for itis his opinion that the manufacturer, and not the operative, is now getting all of the bounty which a generous Government has accorded, Nuts for Protectionists to Crack. From the Des Moines Leader. Why does not the workingmen who gets $5 a day ask for protection from competition with the laborer who Is willing to work in the same shop for $1.50aday? Why does not the printer in Chicago, getting 48 cents a thou. sand, ask for protection against printers in other Miinois towns where 265 to 4 cents per thousana ems is the rule? How is it that wages are twice as high on the farm in Mon. tanaas in lowa? How is it that wages are nearly twice as high in British Columbia as in Nebraska? How is it that with wages twice as high in England asin Germany the Ger- man manufacturers Cannot compete with the English. Changing Front Under Fire. From the Philedelphia Record. There are many indications 3 in current without serious doubt of the infallibility of their idol. There wasa major proof.of this doubt in the introduction of bogus recipro- city in the bowels of the McKinley tariff act. 4 minor proof is furnished in the nomination of Hon, Knute Nelson as the Republican can- didate for Governor of Minnesota. Mr, Nel. son was elected to Congress as a Republican, but,the only distinction he achieved during his term of service resulted from his co-oper- ation with the friends of tariff reform and his courageous vote for the Milig Dill, His . ees ae Ve nis Post-Dispatch, Thursday, - Belt Line for Forest Park. golved to draft and submit a % letting fb the highest bidder the CARO: BPA leben Goa ie sh >; | '? a : “a Gh, tee ond ¢ WA 2 - the water.

An Effort Making to Meet the Planing- Mill Bosses for the Purpose of Settling the Strike—-A New Schemes Evolving for the Holding of National Con- ventions. The convention of the Brotherhood of Car- penters and Joiners is now hugging business very closely. The report of the Committee on Constitution, whieh was submitted yes- terday afternoon, gave the body business of | the very highest importance and plenty of it. The opening sections, relating to officers and their duties, were adopted with some ‘amendments of a minor eharacter. When the subjects of initiation and per cap- ita tax were reached, a prolonged discussion ensued. t Sec. 50, relating to initiation, etc., was Mebated for a cuuple of Pours; and sec 533, embracing the subject of per capita tax, was passed without conclusion. The debate on sec. 50 was very est. The committee had reported a sub- Stantial increase in initiation and dues, witha viewto strengthening the Brother- hood, andthe discussion was decidedly in line with the committee, but there was con- siderable difference of opinion asto the ex- ‘Sent to which, under the circumstances, the convention ought to go. It was urged that two years ago the Brotherhood adopted legis- Jation that had not proved advantageous, @nd there was a general disposition to go slow and weigh well the possible effects of the proposed changes, Memorials were read from a number of Eastern unions asking carpenters not to use the structural materials furnished by the Carnegie Co. They were referred to the committee on resolutions with instruc- tions to report at the earliest practicable mo- ment. The planing mill committee did not report, Put members thereof assured the press that they were trying to get a meeting with the bosses, and would do their best to secure a conference this afternoon. They couldn’t Say that they hadany lively expectation of getting such a meeting, but they would spare mo effort to give the employers a chance to meet the men half-way. THIS AFTERNOON’S DOINGS. The debate on the constigutional changes Was resumed this afternoon. The delegates @re moving very slowly in this matter, and they criticise the statement in a morning per that there is a strong disposition on he part of a majority to hand the order over to the Henry George camp. pon adjournment this afternoon the dele- Ss will take a carriage ride to the euser-Busch brewery and other places of 4 Ointerest. A LONG SESSION. The delegates expect no adjournment antil Bome time about the middle or last of next week. They have just begun their work. One matter, on which probably a day ortwo will be consumed, is that of representation, A system of District Councils will be urged. The locals will, of course, have representatives therein, and these bodies will elect delegates tothe eneral convention. The effect of this will to reduce the size and cost of the National Convention. It is believed, also, that it will satisfy the désire of the locals for representation, while each locai is now entitled to representation in the General Assembly, practically many of them are de- barred from sending Gdelegates, It is said that there are about 130 untons of the Pacific coast unrepresented at this convention simply because they cannot afford the ex- pense of sending delegates. Addressed by Gompers and Kliver. Tne planing mill strikers had their daily meeting this forenoon. Addresses by Mr. Gompers and Mr. Kliver, President of the Carpenters’ Brotherhood, enthused the boys tothe utmost. Mr. Kliver assured them that the International Brotherhood was with them and its power would no doubt be thrown decisively in the scale before many hodurs if the employers should decline to en- tertain the offer of arbitration which the Carpenters’ Convention bad proposed. Mr. Grasslee also added a few cheering words. The Committee on Arbitration was not able to see the employers yesterday, but ex- pectaconference of some sort this after- noon. The outcome is awaited with much interest. Ifthe bosses are disposed to treat there will be a peaceable settlement of the controversy, butif not the convention will without any formality make the cause of the strikers the cause of the Brotherhood and a pores fight, of more or less duration, will ollow.

GARZA AGAIN. The Mexican Revolutionists Pursued by a United States Marshal’s Posse. Rio GRANDE City, Tex., Aug. 4.—If the plans of United States Marshal Paul Fricke and his large posse of deputies do not fall, Catarino Garza, the notorious Mexican revo- lutionary leader, will be inthe hands of the law within the next two days. Garza was seen by several reputable Mexicans on the ranch of Vecilio Salinas, a revolutionist now outon bond, northwest of here. This in- formation was at once telegraphed to Marshal Fricke at San Antonio, and he im- mediately left for this place. He immedi- ‘ately gathered together a large force of deputies and left for Garza’s rendezvous, The latter Is surrounded by a few supporters, d been ordered to that country, will ¢ e and it is expected he will resist. The federal | officers went prepared to take the wily leader | or return with his dead body. So little has been heard of Garza of late that the world outside of the Mexican border had well nigh forgotten the bandit and his attempts to overttira the Diaz Government. But he has not been lost sight of by the Mex- ican and United States authorities. Garza has Mahaged within the past three months to cover his tracks pretty well by giving out statements that he had fled the country, and many telegrams have been printed in Northern papers locating him in Atlantic ports, endeavoring to escape to safer climes. All the while, however, he has been on Texas soil, concealed by friends. The Garza movement was organized in Mexico, Garza merely pees from this side with his personal staff and a few others. The sendingof Gen. Lorenzo Garcia to the frontier and the reckless shooting of people on his caprice created discontent among the people, 'seit every contraband and every one who ‘had been denounced asa suspect since the Ruiz Sandoval affair to Gargza’s standard and gave the uprising a force that it would not otherwise have had. Had the Mexican Government placed the matter in the hands of a man thoroughly ac- quainted with the frontier the revolution would have been stamped out at once and the capture of its leaders an easy task. | Catarino Garza is yet ayoungman. Hels a native of Mexico, but was reared at Brownsville, Tex., where in his boyhood he received a fair education, although he was then so wild that it was generally predicted he would die with his boots on. Afterwards he attended the University of Mexico, and upon his graduation entered the army, in which he served until an act of insubordina- tion caused him to fiy to the Texas side of the Rio Grande. At Palo Pinto he married the daughter of a wealthy Mexican-Spantard and started a fiery little paper which he called El Libre Pensador (The Free Thinker), in which he began his assaults upon the Mexi- can Government. Garea came first to pubiic notice at Rio Grande City, where in @ political altercation he shot a man named Sebree and, it is said kiledtwo Oustom Inspectors. He himself was seriously wounded in the affray. After his recovery he went to Laredo, ‘Tex., and soon became involved ina quarrel over Gen. Martinez, who was afterwards assassinated. Garza hext appeared at Duval, Tex., where he started another paper even more flery than the first and where he had any number of quarrels and petty troubles, until at last be disappeared, turning up next at the head of his nixotic expedition, which he thought w the Diaz Government was ng to atas gic stroke.

Attempt to Blow Up a Chicago Broker’s Residence. CuicaGco, Ill., Aug. 4.—An attempt was made last night to blowup the residence of Charles D. Irwin, a wealthy Board of Trade operator, at 2300 Calumet avenue, and the police are searching highand low for the would-be assassin, whoisa woman. The at- tempt would have been successful had not persons passing by frightened the woman, wholeftalarge can half filled with a high explosive, and ran toward thelake. The can was discovered a few minutes later, but the finders were afraid to touch itand called Mr. Irwin out. He picked upthecan and on ex- amining its contents discovered that it was more than half filled with giant powder. In all there was aboutten pounds ofthe deadly explosive. The amount was sufficient, if ex- ploded, to have blown the building to atoms. The actions of the woman leave no doubt in the minds of the police and Mr, Irwin that she intended to blow up his house and cause the death ofall who were inside. The de scription of her as given tothe policeis that she was attired in deep mourning and worea heavy viack veil that fell below her waist. Mr. Irwin cannot account for the attempt. Hesaysno women have any dealings with the firm, hence the motive could not be one of revenge for loss of money.

Et Paso, Tex.,Aug. 4.—Acting Gov. Piemen- tel and Gov.-elect Ahumado, of Chihuahua, Mex., arrived in this city to-day from the city of Chihuahua, to meet and confer with the officials of the United States concerning a division of the waters of the Rio Grande river for irrigation. That is the most vital ques- tion now commanding the attention of the people on the borders of Mexico and Texas. The scarcity of water in the river at this sea- son and the dams of Mexico catching all the flow has caused a great loss to farmers on this side. Gov. Ahumado stated in an inter- view to-day that everything would be ar- ranged satisfactorily; that Mexico would show her Nberality and divide the water with her American neighbor fairly and equally. He hoped this conference would a prece- dent for all disputes between the two coun- tries, believing that justice would more quickly be reached by appealing to the rea- s0h of both people, rather than by force of arms. The conferees will meet to-day. GAS ECONOMIZER COMPANY. Several Interests Absorbed by a New Corporation. CHICAGO, Ill., Aug. 4.—The American Gas Economizer Co. of Chicago has been incor- porated, and will soon be in active opera- tion. The incorporators are J. P. Elcott, Ebenezer Sprague, E. T. Gardner and George Daniels. This company absorbs the com- pany hitherto known as the Francis Incan- descent Gas-light & Regulator Co. of Llinois; also the Unitek States Gas Lamp & Regulator Co. of St. Louis and several smaller enter- prises of the kind in other parts of the country. Mr. Elcott is the 1 nventor of improvements on the lamps and regulators of the old com- pany, and says the complete plan of organ- ization involves two com panles—one to man- ufacture gas lamps, which will be sold; the other to manufacture regulators, which will be leased and remain underthe control of the regulator company. The stock of the two companies will be Owned by the same parties and most of the stockholders are the same as those of the old companies. The consolidation seems to meet the views of all parties. Mr. Sprague, who travels a great dealand has business connections here, in St. Louis and New York, will set many agents at work. D. H. Lamberson, President of the old Francis company, will also be prominent inthe consolidation. Both the lamps and regulators are to be manufactured in Chicago. In the Lead as Usual.

DEAD MEN TURNED TO STONE. Silent Denizens of a Once Active and Bustling Western Boom Town. From the San Francisco Examiner. Away upamong the sage brush of White Pine,far removed from the shriek of the loco. motive and only disturbed by the occasional prospector, is a strange, silentcity. Once more than thirty-five thousand people car- ried on all kinds of business and traffic there, It was during the phenomenal rush to White Pine fm 1867. Many hundreds of buildings were erected. It was a wild, new city,which never slept, and where were enacted all the scenes which in the telling made Mark Twain and Bret Harte famous. This was the story which an old White Pine man re- counted: **Now, if you go there,’’ said he, ‘‘you see only a few of those buildings, forthe most of them bave fallen inand decayed. Scattered log cabins yet remain where mountain squir- rels skurry to and froat the sound of man’s footsteps. But itis not of this thatI started out to tell you, but of a second silent city where hundreds of men lie Duried and where scarcely a headstone marks their last rest- ing place. The headstones, where there were any atail, were of wood, and they quietly rotted away. The formation all about there is iargely of limestone. Water rcolating though it partakes of the nature of lime, and this in many cases has petrified the bodies. So if one were to dig hereand there in the great graveyard he would find on every hand petrified men. In many casesthey are pet- rifled so completely thatthe entire remains, even down to the features, are intact. The quiet graveyard, stretching over many acres, numbers among Ifts sleepers all classes. There are those who diedin midwinter of pneu- monia and tpyhoid fever, for in those wild times men could not take good care of them- selves. Desperadoes are there also. Num- berless persons of all dégrees died with their boots on. ‘*The men who came there on fortune bent embraced all classes. There was the hardened prospector and the tenderfoot, the professional man, the farmer for the first time turning his attention towards mines and the gambling adventurer. Death settled upon them, high and low alike. Many an Kastern family perhaps to this day are wait- tnx for the return of father, son or brother. They have dropped out forever, and there, caught by the underground elements and turned tostone, they willlleto the endof time. Itisaljlonesome city to visit now, but twenty-five years ago it was a humming, roaring place, not unlike Creede at the present time, only larger. It looks uncanny ~ LORENZO CROUNZE. ee Probable Nominee of Nebraska Repub- licans for Governor. CLEAR MAJORITY PLEDGED TO THE ‘TREASURY DEPARTMENT MAN. Van Wyck Made the Standard Bearer of the People’s Party at Kearney—Latest Returns From the Alabama) Election— Grover Cleveland’s Letters—Notes From the Political Field. LINCOLN, Neb., Aug. 4.—Gov. McKinley’s speech and the Republican State Convention drew to Lincoln such a crowd as the State Capital had never been before called upon to accommodate. Allavailable space in all the hotels was occupied by beds and cots, and | yet hundreds paid for the privilege of sleep- ing on the floors of carpeted hallways, while other hundreds literally camped out on the State-house grounds and the University campus. Not all the delegates heard Mc- Kinley’s speech. Those from the East End among whose numbers the gubernatorial fight rages the most flercely, rematned up town to caucus and combat the rumors which floated thick on the sultry night uir. The most sensational of thesé was the one that Douglas County’s ninety-four had split and that half of them would ignore their in- structions and refuse to work for Crounze for Governor. While this word was being passed from mouth to mouth, the Douglas County delegation caucused, W. J. Broatch was chosen chairman and each member again pledged himself to stand firm by the instruc- tions. This action checked what had threat- ened to bea stampede of the Crounze men. On the other hand the Major’s men did not feel the confidence shown by the Crounze forces. While Major’s followers claimed his nom!l- nation, when the Crounze estimate showing 457 votessure onthe first ballot (421 being necessary toa choice) was put forth, the op- position did not deny itstruth. It was quite apparent that Crounze would be nominated on the first ballot. Hon. Jack McCall of Lex- ington and Hon. Lawson Sheldon were the dark horses talked of. McCail’s hopes seem to be builded on drawing from Crounze votes enough to prevent his nomination on the first ballot and@ securing strength from Majors and scattering votes enough-to gain the choice on a subsequent ballot. The Republican State convention was called to order at 110’clock this morning by Chairman Mercer ofthe State Central Com- mittee, who made a lengthy speech. The Lansing Theater was packed with delegates and . yee After the reading of the call, John R. Hays of Norfolk was elected tempor- ary chairman and committees on platform aod credentials were appointed. Chairman Hayes, in bis speech, referred to the record of the party in tue past in putting , down the rebellion and giving the country a protective tariff. The tariff must be main- | tained, be says, and the Republican party now and I do not often visit it, but when I do | I am constantly impressed certainty of all human affatrs. The old wooden headstones that yetremain are ex- ceedingly suggestive.’’ THE VICTORIA CROSS. Officers Who Will Receive This Femous Reward of Bravery. From Pubiic Opinion.

AN ALL-NIGHT CONVENTION IN NEBRASKA—VAN WYCK WINS. KEARNEY, Neb., Aug. 4.—After spending ‘the night chiefly in killing time,, the People’s Itis announced in Tuesday night’s Gazette | that the Queen has signified her intention of conferring the decoration of the Victoria Cross upon three officers of Her Majesty’s army, whose claims have been sudDmitted for Hier Majesty’s approval, for the conspicuous bravery displayed by them during the recent operations in the Hunza and Nagar Country on the Giiget frontier in December, 1821. The officers are Capt. Fenton John Aylme of the Royal Engineers and Lieuts. G. H Boisragon and John Manners Smith of the Indian Staff Corps. Capt. Aylmer receives ee ee his cross for conspicuous bravery in the as- | sault and 1891. Actording to the official record this officer accompanied the storming party, burst open the inner gate with gun-cotton, | ' rates for railroads, the passage of a law to which he placed andignited, and though severely wounded, once inthe leg and twice inthe right hand, fired nineteen shots with his revolver, kitiing several of the enemy, and loss of blood, he was carried out of action. Lieut. Guy Huddleston Bolsragon also earns | |a State board; demands equal pay for men the Victoria Cross for his conspicuous brav- ery inthe assault and capture of the Niit Fort. He is describe1 as having led the assault with dash and determination and forced his way through difficult obstacles to the Inner gate, when he returned for rein- forcements, moving intrepidly to and fro under a heavy cross-fire until he had col- lected sufficient men to relieve the hardly pressed storming party anddrivethe enemy from the fort. The Victoria Cross, to be given to Lieut. John Manners Smith, 1s awarded for his conspicuous bravery when leading the storming party at the attack and capture of the strong position occupled by theenemy near Nilt, in the Hunza-Nagar Country on Dec. 20, 1891. The oficial record says the position was, owingtothe nature of the country, an ex- tremely strong one, and had ‘barred the ad- vance of a force for seventeen days. it was eventually torced by a small party of fitty rifies, with another of equal strength in sup- port. The first of these parties was under the commaad of Lieut. Smith, and it was en- tirely owing to his splendid leading and the coolness, combined with dash, he displayed while doins so, thata success was obtained. For nearly four hours on the face ofacliff which was almost precipitous, he steadily moved his handful of men from point to point, as the difficulties of the ground and showers of stones from above gave him an opportunity, time he was insuch a position as to be una- ble to defend himself from any attack the enemy might choose to make, He was the first mantoreachthe sumunit, within a few yards of one ofthe enemy’s stingars, which was immediately rushed, Lieut. Smith pis- tolling the first man. ABOUT TOWN.

THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO HAVE DROWNED THE OLD MAN. Warren Smith and a Man Named Biesegel Taken Into Custody by Detectives— Smith Maintains That Ertle’s Drown- ing Was Purely Accidental—His Story —General Police News. Detectives Gocking and BambDrick arrested Warren Smithand a man named Bilesiegel this afternoon on suspicion of being criminal- ly connected with the drowning of Clemence Ertle, whose body was recovered yesterday at the foot of Bu- chanan street. The body was identified soon after it was taken from the river as Er - tle’s, and it was then reported that the man had been accidentally drowned the day be- fore at the foot of Angelrodt street, where he hada flat-boat. It seems that Biesiegel showed a bank book yesterday to some friends in a saloon in North St. Louis and claimed that Ertlie had given it to him and investigation also developed the fact that Ertle had been drowned Monday night while Smith and another young fellow were with him, Smith lives at 2336 Warren street ana when seen this afternoon he claimed that Ertle rolled off the boat while asleep and was drowned. ‘‘There were three of us sleeping on the boat together last Mun- day night,’’ he said, ‘‘Ertle, myself and a fellow I picked up in a saloon down on Eighth street. We had all been drinking beer pretty freely and lay down ona platform atthe rear end of the flat-boat about dark and soon went to sleep. The old man was on the outside and I was in the middle. About 11 o’clock I waked up and Ertle wasnot there. He had rolled off into the river, I suppose, and been drowned. I don’tsee why we should have drowned him. We had had no quarrel and were not madat himand as for money, he had none, or very little. I used to work around his boat a good deal and never saw him have morethan a dollar now and then. This fellow, William, arrested with me gave him a dollarthatday. Isawthe bank book occasionally lying about the boat but never paid any attention to it and don’t even know that it wasa bank book. Detec- tive Gocking arrested me, I believe, merely because I didn’t tell him who that fellow was who was drinking with us that afternoon. I called him Jack, but I don‘t know what his name was or where he lives, though of course I would know him_ again iflwere to meet him. Monday afternoon the old man returned from the boat about 4 o’clock, and was pretty full, and we had two or three cans of beer atter that. Smith said that Ertie lived in New Orleans where he had a wife and child, an that he came up to St. Louis nearly every summer and made a flatboat and fleated down to New Orleans with it in the fall. Smith is a carpenter, 33 years oldanda singleman. He says he came from Illinois and has iived in St, Louls three years. His father, with whom he lives, isa miliwright. Biesegel is alsoacarpenter and claims to have made Ertle’s acquaintance last spring and to have done considerable work for him on his flat boat. He says that Ertle gave him his bank- book to keep for him until he got ready to return to New Orleans, as he was afraid of losing it on the boat, He sald when seen this after- noon that he didn’t know bow much money Ertle had in bank in New Orleans, but knew that he didn’t have any here, as he bad loaned him several dollars recently Limself, Biesiegel lives at 8715 Florissant av- enue, and came to this country from Ger- many about three years ag°- He was not on the boat when Ertle was drowned. The ~ tectives say that the bank book shows that Ertle had $800 on deposit ina New Orleans bank. asst se eases Knocked Senseless by a Thiet While John Shea and some friends were dragging the river near the Eads bridge about noon to-day, for the body of & man drowned a couple of days ago, he noticed a negro attempting to rifle the pockets ofa man asleep on the levee.

Mr. Zachritz told her to go back and see if she and her husband could not settletheir quarrels ami- cably. If he still refused to admit her, then he would issue a warrant against him for wife abandonment. Warrants were issued against several persons as follows: Willis P.

Ionly desireto establish the propositions that, in order to lead a moral life, it is neces- sary to observeacertain sequence in good actions; that ifa man is serious in his aspira- tion to lead a good life, the practical manti- festations of that desire will necessarily un- fold themselves ina certain order, and that in this order the abstemiousness (self-mas- tery) is the first virtue which he will have to cultivate. In pursuit of the virtue of abstemiousness he must again observe a certain definite order, and the first step therein will be abstemioushess in food— fasting. Inthe practice of fasting the first thing from which he must abstain, if he really and truly aims at leading a good moral life, is animal food; and this for the intelligible reason that, not to speak of the passions it engenders and fosters, the con- sumption of animal food is plainly immoral, because it demands an act which does vio- lence to our moral sentiments, viz., murder, and is encouraged and Kept up only by men’s be ty of gold andtheir appetite for savory ood. The reason why the first step in fast- ingand in right living is abstinence from animal food has been admirably formulated, not by one man only, but by all man- kind in the persons of its most accredited representatives during the course of human history. But why, one may ask, if the illegality, 1. e., immorality, of consuming animal Sod has been recognized by mankind for sucha long period, have people nevertheless per- sisted down tothe present in ighoring this law? This question naturally suygests itself to those whoare prone to be guided less by the Hight of their own reason than by public opinion. The answer tothe question, how- ever, is that all moral progress (and moral progress isthe essence of all progress what- ever) is a work of time, is accomplished slowly ; but that the sign of genuine progress, as distinguished from casual advance, is its uninterrupted continuousness and its ever-increasing rapidity. The Vegetarian movement ought to fill with gladness the souls of those who have at heart the realization of God’s. king- dom upon earth, not because vegetarianism itself is such an important step towards the realization of this kingdom (all real steps are equally important or unimportant), but be- cause it serves as a criterion by which we know that the pursuit of moral perfection on the part of man is genuine and sincere, in- asmuch as it hastaken that form which it must necessarily assume, and has truiy be- gun atthe very beginning. It is impossible not to rejoice at this, just as it would be im- possible for people not to feel glad who,after having vainly endeavored to reach the top of the house by ee to climb up the walls from various ‘sides, at last meet at the bottom step ofthe staircase, and crowding together there, feel that thereis no way of reaching the top, except by ascending that Staircase and beginning with this first and lowest step. ETIQUETTE CF THE PIGTAIL. John Wears No Beard Until He Becomes a Grandfather. From the Detroit Free Press. In China the men take as much pride in their hair as women, and the ‘‘pigtail’’ is a thing of no little moment. It enters into matters of etiquette which even the lowest coolie observes, and takes as much skill to manage asalady’strain. Itis not true that a man would rather die than lose his queue, though, notwithstanding a popular supersti- tion to that effect,for all the Buddhist priests Shave their polls, and baldness over the whole scalp is exceedingly common in both menand women. An occasional careless old manis seen without a queue, but usually if there is any hair at all it is carefully gathered into a braid, though the whole may not be any larger than a shoestring, and the owner feels happy. In making the queue the whole head is shaved except r patch from this silk are upon the crown, is braided and strands of added, which end in a tassel reaching to the heels. In descending stairs it is sicked u as a lady picks up her skirts, and sittin down the ‘‘attache’’ places it care fully at his side. In mourning the Diack strands are replaced by white ones andin second mourning by light . of or green. 1g RRS ASR NARI growth which reluctantly sprouts from lip and chin, and old dandies commonly weara little ivory combsuspended from the jacket by asilver chain, with which they coax and pet this hirsute growth with as much concern as any freshman in a medical college, LABOR NEWS. Probable Strike of Union Pacific Telegraph Operators. OMAHA, Neb., Aug. 4.—When Chief Ramsey of East St. Louis, headof the Orderof Rail way Telegraphers, came to Omaha Tuesday he did not anticipate a big strike in the West. To-day hedoes. The Committee of Rallway Telegraphers held aconference with Assis- tant General Manager Dickinson of the Union Pacific last night relativeto the differences existing between that railroad and the teleg- raphers. The latter submitted a modified schedule which it was expected would be accepted. The committee was surprised by an absolute refusalon the partof Manager Dickinson to consider the terms, Grand Chief Ramsey was present at the conference. He was inclined to be reticent as to the future policy of the telegraphers. He said that the committed would endeavor to have a conference with General Manager Clark in person, but did not appear hopeful of securing from him any other answer than the one given by. Mr. Dickinson. Whether the refusal of the Union Pacific to agree tothe modified schedule will be accepted by the telegraphers is a matter yet to be decided. Mr. Ramsey refused to say whether the telegraphers would adopt any more aggressive measures to ob- tain their demands, saying that it would not be advisable to say too much atthistime, It had been expected that the schedule presented would be ac- cepted and there had been no time to decide on future course of action. That would be postponed until after an effort had been made to see Mr. Clark. The committee came here with authority to take aggressive ac- tion, They held a secret meeting early this morning. The situation in railway circles here looks grave. There are more than one thousand operators on the Union Pacific. A_ strike would involve all western lines. The men waot a slight increase. SAWYER’S SHORTAGE. Must Pay Up or Be Tried for Larceny. Ext RENO, O. T., Aug. 4.—The committee appointed by OC. L. Severy, assignee of the defunct bank of El Reno, has just madea partial statement of the condition of the bank books and the financial standing of the President of the concern, 8 M. Sawyer. The deposit of the bank are shown to bealittle over $7,000, but such vehement protests were mate by the citizens that the accountants have refused to act further as examiners. Sawyer credited his assets on the books as $20,000, but this amount repre- sents gity property, which is nearly all con- tested, and is really of no valueatall. The partial statements of the committee has in- tensified the feeling against Sawyer and one of the most prominent attorneys inthe city saidthis morning that unless sawyer or his wife made a speedy settlement with his de- positors that he would be prosecuted for lar- ceny. It will be remembered that recently a sen- sational report was published of the alleged robbery of the bank by the Daltons, It is charged that Sawyer himself was at fault and spread the report of robbery to cover up the shortage.

HUMPHREY & CO., BROADWAY, ¢ so eee 3 © EW ERPECT IR. PING. ee RE AO : OPPOSITION OF MARS, Telescopes in Every Country Pointed at | the Great Star. The eg opposition of Mars oc- curred lastfnight. At about ten minutes past.i2, the planet was exactly opposite the SGn—hence the technical expression—‘‘oppo- sition.’’ It was,a bright night and Mars glowed superbly in the southern sky. The moon was onthe down grade in the west, and in the northwest Jupiter was looming up grandly, and justabove the horizon might be seen the tangled glow of a the Pleiades. Nearly overhead was Cassiopeia; just below this laay was Perseus and Algol, the ‘‘demon star,’’ in Medusa’s head, and yet lower the Charioteer with the splendid Capella as its ‘‘lucida.’’ Above Jupiter was'the giant rectangle, the ‘‘square of Pegasus.’”’ In the northwest, the Lyre, its brightest ornamentthe matchless Vega, was descending the sky, and following it was Cygnus, with its striking configuration, the Cross. To the naked eye Mars appeared no differ- entthban for some days past. It has been increasing inapparent size and in bright. ness for some weeks; the opposition was merely the time of its nearest approach to the earth, and there was no phenomenon to be observed such as takes place in eclipses. All over the world telescopes were directed A towards Mars last night wherever the sky was clear, but the scrutiny has been going : on for months. Astronomers generally have fi been studying the face of the. planet with great assiduity in order to soive several much-discussead problems concerning the conditions prevalling 2 there; and quite, an army or observers have been very carefully measur- | ing the apparent distance of the luminary from certain neighboring stars in order to solve—first, the question of the distance of the planet, and, second, the distance of the Pa ee —_" ia ow ee se eo Ae. f ‘ ~e FAD 3 ’ 6) ode | Ce oe ¥ - sun. Shese observations for distance began early in June, and will continue until Sep- tember. They will form the basis of long and intricate calculations before resuits Can be announced. Concerning the surface of Mars the prin- cipal information learned at this opposition will come from less than a dozen points. oré is expected from the Lick observatory m anywhere else, since the largest fracti/ig telescope in the world is there,a s6- ceréiractor made by Alvin Clark. The Wash- on telescope (26 inches) will yield im- ne ge results; this is the g y which orof, Hall discovered the moons of Mars in 1877. They have a 28-inch refractor at Prince- ton, and tt ought to ylelad good observations. There are two or three excellent telescopes in Europe and on this continent in the houses of trained observers, and whoare expected to contribute substantially towards the solu- « tion of the Martian mysteries, But to North- rn observers Mars, even when highest, is | the South to be seen to good ad- dont aint the observations in the South. phere, where the planet is nearly uired to complement d, will be req fe of the quae e work of observers this Mount Hamilton, Cal.,are giving out news somewhat sparingly as to what they have seen there. Prof. Holden, whois in charge of the Mars observations, announces that not much isto be said of the results until the observations are completed and the whole work has been gone over. He warns the pub- lic against sensational announcements of discoveries on the planet, especially such as may be thought to indicate the possibility of interplanetary communication. About 700 diameters is the highest magnify- ing power that can practically be employed on Mars with the Lick telescope; this makes the planet to appear as only 560,000 miles away. Atculmination ‘iars is only 31 de- grees high atthis observatory and the at- mospheric disturbances renderit very hard to see the markings, and at times they al- most enone Up to the present time Scheaparelli’s canals have not been seen double, but the Fons Juventi (Fountain of Youth), a large, dark region, heretofore seen single, now appears double through the great refractor. At this opposition the north pole of Mars is turned toward the sun andthe south polar cap, which was large and brilliant a month ago, is rapidly diminishing. This confirms the supposition of astronomers that these polarcaps are composed of snowand ice. the refractors disciose another interesting feature. There are numerous dark markings within this polar cap, as if the body of the og et had become visible where the snow ad disappeared. These markings have not been seen before at any observatory. Another remarkable disciosure is the pres- ence of several prominent bright projections on’the southwest limb of the planet. They ‘were visible afortnight or so ago, and it is thought likely that they will reappear on the ‘southeast limb, soon, when it Is hoped to de- termine more fully their character. The moons have been beautifully observed since their discovery in 1877. .Comparatively littie has been learned of these tiny bodies until now, When the great telescope has shown their phases clearly, and has enabled their.diameters to be measured. What greater discoveries may, be made during the —t month can not of course be foreseen, but it is the possibility of more and very important disclosures: that keeps the thought of astronomers the world over turned towards Mount Hamilton. The ob- servers here are making the most of the oc- casion, realizing that so magnificent achance to investigate Mars will not again occur un- til 1909. Mapping Mars. WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 4.—ODservations of Mars were taken atthe National Observa- tory last night by Profs. Hall and Firsby. They discovered nothing of canals reported to have been observed by Prof, Schlaparelli. Henry C. Maire, the well-known astrono- mer, who has been making close observa- tions of Mars at Rochester, N. Y., says: ‘*Mars presented no new features at mid- pian, The workings were comparatively faint because of intense illumination of the disc. The snow capis nowsmall. The west- ern limb from the snowcap northward seems to be more hi illuminated than the east- The light of the western limb appeared nearly white, but not so white as that nowcap. In the Southern ee hemisphere there was quite a distinct green- ish gray streak about 40 degs. from the pole. The Electropoise. BIRMINGHAM, Ala.

This morning, Benjamin J. Williams was arraigned before United States Commissioner @Grawford on the charge of using the United States mails for fraudulent purposes. De- tective Lawler testified that H. C. Lewis, manager of the Southern Hotel, had received several letters in reply to letters purported to have been sent by him inquiring fora steward for the Southern Hotel. A salary of $120 a month was promised, and transportation tothiscity, but a deposit of $10 was required as an evidence of good faith. The letters were ordered addressed to H. C, Lewis, 704 Gratiot street. Mr. Lewis turned them over tothe police, and Detec- tive Lawler ascertained thatno man named Lewis lived at the number given, but that an empioye of the Simmons Hardware Co. name a W. Williams had been re. ceiving mail so addressed. Mr Lawler tes- tified that he confronted Williams with the letters, and that he admitted having written them, giving as a reason that his furniture had been mortgaged, and that he hoped by this means to secure sufficient money to redeem it. The prisoner stated that the letters contained no intimation that the H, 0. & wy whom they were signed was the ma@ma@ger ofthe Southern Hotel, and also said tats secured a good steward that he knew that Yr, Lewis, who was an intimate persomal friend, would give hima place. Mm. Mary Williams, wife of the accused, @eavimeg that a number of let- ters had Beem feceived at the house, which he ma took, saying that they were for man atthe office.

Two or Three Weeks More of Dolce Far Niente, and Then Fashion’s Devotees Will Plunge Into the Swim-—Depart- ures, Returns and Visitors—General Gossip of the Social World. The number ol people who have left the city during the summer season has never been so great as itis at present. Ever since the close of June there has been a steady stream of tourists setting their faces north- ward, westward and eastward, until at present there are scarcely any of the society ladies left.

In fact, the registers of some of the leading hotels read like pages from the St. Blue Book. The Northern Lake contingent is also strong, and those who are visiting the Western mountains and the Yellowstone are numbered by the thousands. Asa ~esult the social world, as faras st. Louis is con- cerned, has almost ceased to exist. The only social event of the week of any note was the marriage of Miss Madge Frederichs to Mr. William Grayson, which took place on Wednesday evening at the residence of the bride, No. 3617 Cook ave- nue. ‘Ihe bride and groom left for the Yel- lowstone for their wedding trip.

Proposed Reception to an Italian Oruiser’s Crew. NEw YorxK, Aug. 4.—The Italian cruiser Giovanni Bausan, which has been detailed as an escort tothe Italian transport chartered to bring the statue of Columbus to be erected in Central Park, will arrive here in less than two months from now. As the arrival of the vessel will really be the boginning of the Columbian celebrations In this country, which will continue until after the opening of the World’s Fair at Chicago, some of the officers of the navy are considering the ad- visability of giving a reception to the officers of the cruiser soon after her arrival here. Up to the present exchange of ideas has been in- formal, but it is contemplated to call a meet- ing soon to formally discuss the matter. The vessel willremain in American waters until after the international naval review at Hampton Roads and at,.this port, to take place in April and May next. As no description of this Italian steel cruiser has yet been given a brief one here will be of interest,especially as so many have supposed her to bea battle ship or near it. On the contrary she isan unarmed cruiser of about the same size as the American cruisers Boston and Atlanta, but having about 50 per cent greater horse power, consequently greater speed. She was built by Armstrong &Co. and resembles the Esmeraida, con- structed by the same firm. She hasa main battery of two 10-inch and six 6-inch breech-loading rifles, which is a powerful battery for a vesselof her size. Her coal endurance is a distance of 5,000 miles at ten knots speed, Steinway Pianos. Large stock in all cases and styles, BOLLMAN Bros.

D., Aug. 4.—The following weather crop bulletin has been issued by the Observer here forthe week ending Aug. 1: Under the beneficial effect of the past week’s weather all crops madea rapid and healthy growth, and are now hastening toward ma- turity. The harvest of barley has begun ina few localities, and in the northeast section of Pembina County some farmers started the cutting on wheat on thelst. The consensus of opinion of farmers is that the harvesting of wheat will be general in about two weeks. The work of gathering the hay crop has been vigorously pushed, and the yield is reported as enormous. The temperature during the week was extremely erratic. It was above the normal inthe northwest section, about the average in the eastern counties, while in the central and southwest portions of the State it was considerably below. Very waves occurred on the mornings of the 28th and 29th, with Hght frosts In the western counties, causing slight damage only to gar- dens in the western portion of Stark County.

The present warm spell seems likely to con- tinue for some time tocome. Observer Ham- mon of the Signal Service, who returned to the city this morning, sald: ‘‘From present indications to-morrow will be as warm, ora little warmer than to-day. It is hotter in Kansas to-day than itis in St. Louls. Juston the eastern edges of the Rocky Mountains, however, itis cool. This may cause a fallin the temperature here by Saturday, but there is no certainty that such a fall will take place. As to rain, it is raining now in Mon- tana, where it is a little cooler, and the storm will reach Dakota to-day. t cannot reach St. Louts before Friday night, and may not extend so far.’’ The probabilities are that there will bea warm, ,but not an exces- sively hot spell.

' THE ARSENAL BAND’s TRIP TO DENVER AROUSES LOCAL MUSICIANS, © be They Claim That Secretary Elkins’ Action ' in Granting Permission tothe Band to Accompany Ascalon Commandery Was an Outrage—Presiient Miller Delivers Himself of a Forcib'e Protest. Mr. Owen Miller, the President of the Mu- Sicians’ Mutual Benefit Association and ex- ecutive of the Fourth District National League of Musicians, is very indignant at the action of the Secretary of War in permitting the Arsenal Band to go to the Triennial Con- clave ofthe Knights Templar with Ascalon Commandery, and thusdeprive a band of city musicians ofan opportunity to earn a livelihood. Mr.Miller vented his feelings ina telegram to tlhe Hon, Stephen B. Elkins , Sec- retary of War, as follows: St. Lovis, Aug. 4, 1892, dion. Stephen B. Elkins, Seeretary of War, Hunt- ington, W. Va.: In the name of 500 professional musicians of this City, every one of whom isa citizen anda voter, I espectfully but emphatically protest against the or- de ng of soldiers from Jefferson Barracks to per- orm the musica! labor for the Ascaion Commandery es the occasion of the Knight Templar Conclave to 6helidat Denver, Colo. There is neither justice, expediency or necessity for suchaction. Very re- etfully, OWEN MILLER, ecutive Fourth District, National Leagne of Musicians. | MILLER’S VIOLENT DENUNCIATION, Mr. Miller could not findterms too violent to express his resentment of this usurpation of citizen rights by hireling soldiers, as he putit. ‘*This action of Secretary Elkins,’’ Said Mr. Miller, ‘‘is an insult to honorable workmen. He, a memberof the President’s Cabinet and Secretary of War, orders these musicai soldiers to step into the places which of rignt belong tothe men who have to stpport themselves and their faml- lies by their labors ; idea is unworthy even European tyrant. Mr. Elkins could have Ordered lis soldiers with much more grace to Homestead and set themto work in Carne- gie’s milis than do what he has done in St. Louis. If ever he attempted such an out- rage he and his patrons would be forever dis- graced inthe eyes of the American people, and he would never again raise his head above the humblest and most obscure private citizen. And yet Mr. Elkins with his soldiers robs men whe are ready and anxious to work of their only means of subsistence and sends the Arsenal Band to Denver with Ascalon Commandery, and they, poor slaves, must Obey. I don’t blame them, but I most heart- ily condemn the man who by his arbitrary management of the most powerful arm of the Federal Goverfiiment, puts dishonor upon labor and forces citizens into idleness. **] dia not direct my telegram of protest to Washington, becatse Mr. Elkins is not at his office in the War Department bDuailding earning his salary as we musi- clans are anxious to do if he would permit us. No; I sent my telegram to Huntington, W.Va., where Mr. Elkins is boss- ing a political convention‘ and fixing things tocarry his State in November, perhaps to make sure in this way of his own job. I have no doubt that Mr. Elkinsis spouting clap- trap platitudes and meaningless sentiment tothe Virginians and making promises he will never keep, but if he and his kind would do more for the people and say less, honest citizens would not be obliged to fall back before enlisted soldiers and con- template in idleness the protection and beneficence of a so-called government by the people, of the people and for the people. I tell youthatif wr. Elkins continues to use the War Department as a ciub to humble and degrade the tollers of this country he will see when it is too late a handwriting onthe wall which he will never forget.’’ Mr. Miller was highly indignant and he spoke his words with a flery spirit. The Arsenal Band should confine Its labors tothe parade ground of Jefferson Barracks and not intrude upon the territory of Mis- sour! and field of labor for citizens, thought Mr. Miller. The members of the band are regularly enlisted soldiers, he said, supported by the Government. They are employed asa part of the military system of the United States, and they should not, therefore, become interiopers and take a meager pittance from men who have no pa- ternal government tosupply them with the necessaries of life. The Arsenal Band leaves for Denver to- night, and it is not probable that the Secre. tary of War will recall his order. THE TEMPLARS’ SIDE. An effort was made to secure from mem.- bers of Ascalon Commandery a defense of their action in securing the Arsenal Band. Mr. Wm, H. Lamb, Superintendent of letter carriers, said that further than a desire to secure a 200d band he did not know what other reason the Commandery might have, but ne referred the inquirer to the Committee on Arrangements, which had full the hegotiations tor sic. , Greenough, Mr. James Capt. isaac M. Mason, Frederick F. Williamson and other prom!i- nent Templars wereon thiscommittee. Capt. Greenough was seen, Dut he said that none of the committee had any, explanation to make in regard to the Afsenal Band, because Mr. Agiar had undertaken this task. Mr. Aglar, he said, had written a full expla- nation to the Secretary of War, but as Mr. Agiar was at home, sick to-day, his explana- tion could not be obtained. Weather Indications. The thermometer recorded over 90 yester- day, and indications for cooler weather are not very promising. While the hot weather lasts frequent rides should be taken on the St. Louis & Suburban summer cars. These are of extra length, very easy riding, andas the roa‘ owns its own right of way west of Fortieth street a high speed is maintained with perfect safety, thus insuring a continual breeze and delightfully low temperature. A Jolly Day. The ladies of the St. Louls World’s Fair As- sociation will give a picnic at Meramec High- lands On the ’Frisco next Saturday. Oratory, music, dancing, boating, a bounteous repast and general refreshments will guarantee a jolly day.

Chairthan Harrity’s rise asa politica der nas map no rallel. - " bea two years, h little or ho patronage at his command and only his own resources to draw upon, we nas ry from local to na- tional leadership of his party. Rarely has a man under 42 years of age played so impor- int @ part ina National Convention as dia m. Harrity at Chicago. As the recognized teader of the Democracy of Pennsylvania for less than twoyears he did what Wallace and Randall tn ali their pears of ieadership were unable te do, when he had the State’s delega- tion instructed to vote asa unit on all ques- tions without naming any candidate for them to vote for, In all the local polition! fights ia Philadelphia fromm 188% to 1890, Mr. Harrity bas held his party orcanization upto a ver high standard, andthe results have show the wisdom and sagacity of his policy. Mr. Harrity was the leaderand manager of the canvass of Robert E. Pattison for renom- ination as Governor of Pennsylvania. He was Chairman of the State Convention and declined, because of press of business, the Chairmanship of the State Central Com- mittee, Edward ©. Wall of Milwaukee has risen rapidiy in the ranks of Democracy as an ac- tive and sagacious leader. He is chairman of the Wisconsin State Central Committee, Member of the National Democratic Commit- tee and the head of the entire Democratic machinery in his State. He has become one of Wisconsin’s best known citizens and has developed a master hand in politics. Personally he ts a genial, approachable man, fullofspirits and generous impulses. He takes life lightly, which he can easily afford to do, as he is tite head of the VUonsol. idated Electric Light gystem o8 Milwaukee. Mr. Wall was born Aug. 11, 1843, in Milwau- kee, and attended Beloit and Racine Colleges. From 1861 to 1866 he was in business in Cleve- land and Chicago. In 1866 he succeeded his father in business, and in 1877 established the mercantile firm of Wall & Bigelow. In his native city Mr. Wall served several terms as Alderman, and was elected to the State As- sembly. He has also held the office of Collec- tor of Internal Revenue at Milwaukee. Mr. Wall has always been a Democrat and comes of Democratic stock. Heisa believer in hard money and a tariff for reventie only. Matt. W. Ransom, of Northampton County, N. U., entered the Confederate Army, rose to the rank of major-general, and surrendered at Appomattox. He was elected to the United Sta:ies Senate as a Democrat in Janu- ary, 1872; took his seat April 24, 1872, and was re-elected in 1876 and 1883. His wife was Miss Hattie Exum, a near relative of Gen. George H. Thomas, Commander of the Army of the Cumberland. She its a beautiful and accomplished woman, and has reared and fitted her six sons for college. Benjamin T, Cable, Rock Island, Ill., comes from good old Kentucky stock, his father, P. L. Cable, having been a Kentuckian and a gentleman of education and culture. P. L. Cable was a lawyer and a man of large wealth. Benjamin Cobb is 36 years old. He was graduated from Ann Arbor University. He is of medium Neivht, Jolly and companiona- bleand rich. Mr. Cobb has passed a great part of his life in travel and has visited China, Japan and the East indies. He was in Europe when he was nominated forthe Fifty-second Congress and came home to make the race, which he won. Money has not spoiled Ben Cobb. He lives with his fam- ily ina quiet way in a handsome house he inherited fuom his father. He has a great taste for books and is a hard student. His library is probably the finest inthe West. His collection includes sume rare works, among them several Latin mis- sals; one that was once the property of Charlies VII. of France. He has also several hundred costly pictures of celebrated actors and actresses. Mr. Cable has several port- folios filed with autograph letters of distin- guished persons. Histastein paintings, en gravings, etchings andceramics is as culti- vated as it is in books. He is well known in New York, Chicago and other cities—in fact, he has hosts of friends tall over the country. He captivates friends by his easy, genial manners. Mr. Cable is married to a charming woman. Senator Arthur P. Gorman of Maryland has long been known as a successful politician. He helped to manage the campaign for Mr. Cleveland with marked ability and was en- titled to all the credit he received for the big bemocratic victory. There are few parallels to the struggle against the force bill that Sen- ator Gorman led so successfully, and there ts not a more dramatic incidentin our parlia- mentary history. His courage on that occa- sion proved as cooland his head as clear as his bearing was modest. This victory widened Gorman’s fame. Col. Calvin §. Brice of Ohio isone of the most conspicuous figures in the United States Senate. He is one of the millionaire Sen- ators. Col, Brice was educated at the Miami University and was graduated at theage of 17. He has a law office now at Lima, O. He wasonly 15 years old whenthe war broke out, but he enlisted, serving in the Virginia campaign. Afterthree months’ service he returned to school and after graduating raised a company and served tothe close of the war. Then he studied law at Ann Arbor and was admitted to the bar whenonly 21 years old, Early in the seventies Col. Brice became interested in railway enterprises. With Gov, Foster he bullt the Ohio Central, Nickel Plate and several other systems. He built one road through the Gogebic Iron Range, and made a bridge from Canada tothe United states for it at the Sault Ste. Marie.

Sample boxes were taken from the steamer’s refrigerator and the fruit was found to be allright. The fruit will be sold at auction Friday morning. Weather Indications. The thermometer recorded over 90 yester- day, and indications for cooler weather are not very promising. While the hot weather lasts frequent rides should be taken on the St. Louls & Suburban summer cars. - These are of extra length, very easy riding, and as the road owns its own right of way west of Fortieth street a high speed is maintained with perfect safety, thus insuring a contin- ual breeze and delightfully low temperature. ———————— ee Louis Avéndolpt, a Negro Boy, Shot by Officer Huff.

We, however, cannot do any more than put upthe-best game in our power. In fact that is what the boys have ‘been doing right along since the season opened, but luck seems to have been against us. The game at its bestis very uncertain and one does not know what is going to bappen next. Cooney, who put up such a good game at short for the Chicago club last season, is a good illustration. He started out this season with everything in his favor and almost every crank up home regarded him as the coming shortstop onthe diamond, His work, however, was notup to expectations from the start and the result was I had to let him go. His position at present is being filed by Dahlen, who formerly covered third, Parrott, another new infielder who was secured recentiy,has replaced Dahlen at third and Decker, who formerly played with the Joliet club of the Illinois-lowa League, is at present covering right in place of Dungan, my regular right fielder, who Ils laid up with a broken finger.’’ In reply to aninquiry as to how his new players are showing up the big Captain said: ‘‘mhey are playing to the best oftueir ability. Whether they will continue to hold their own with the Chicago club remains to be seen. That story about Decker succeeding me on first base is not correct; my playing this The Ehret Stabie has been experiencing the toughest kind of luck this season. Don Alonzo and Yorkville Belle have both been beaten under various circumstances suggest- ing a hoodoo in the fence or something very like it. In the first event of the day on Satur- day San Juan was considered good enough to win. He started well, but broke down before the race had been one-third run. Fairview, the hope of the stable early in the season and the pace setter inthe Krooklyn Handicap, is not in condition to race ana Clarendon Is also shelved. It is certainly hard ona plucky young horseman like Mr, Ehret. He de- serves better treatment at the hands of the fickle goddess and his friends hope to see the hoodoo downed before the season at Mon- mouth Park is over. ALLERTON RETIRED FOR THE SEASOX. DAVENPORT, Io., Aug. 4.—The great stallion Alierton, who finished very lame in the third heat of his trial with Lebasco yesterday, is so seriously injured that he will be laid up for the Balance of the season. His owner, OC. W. Williams of Independence, will lose $100, - 000 as a result. EAST 81. LOUIS JOCKEY CLUB.

Speaking for myself I do think it is rather unwieldy. However, if the clubs that are losing money desire to quit at the end of the present season Idon’t think any serious ob- jections to their doing so will be made.’’ CHANGES IN THE BROWNS. Notwithstanding the factthat his playing of late has shown much improvement, Thirda- baseman Pinkney was released by President | Pitcher Jimmy | Von der Ahe yesterday. Galvin was also let go. that from now on, commencing to-day, Crooks will cover third base, .Brodle second and Caruthers will be utilized regularly in right fieid. Pinkney’s release caused considerabie discussion in base ball circles and from present appear- ‘ances it looks as if Mr. Von der Ahe has made a very foolish move. While ‘‘Pink’’ has not, it must be admitted been doing the work ex- pected of him this season, it must be remem- bered that third base is one of the most difficult positions on a club to fill satisfactorily. Consequently it appears as if Mr. Von der Ahe virtually jumped outof the frying pan into the fire by letting **Pink’’ go without securing a competent successor to him beforehand. Crooks may succeed in filing the bill, but that will leave a hole at second. Brodie, who is expected to hold down that position, is an -outfielder and has never ciaimed to be aninflelder. It will be remembered that Chris last season took McCarthy from the outfield and played him at second with disastrous results.

The following were the winners at St. Paul yesterday: Maud B., Van Buren, Issie O., Ju- gurtha and Torrent. : The winners at Gloucester yesterday were Ransom, Richard T., Poor Jonathan, Hya- cinthe, Cesar and Oregon. The winners at the Chicago Hawthorne course yesterday were Deception, Patrick, Bolster, Dud Hughes and Gov. Adams. The Overland Park meeting at Denver was inaugurated yesterday. The winners were Happy Day, Coronet, Brazoos, May Hardy and Geraldine. The races run over the Garfield Park course at Chicago were won by Tobe Bell, Lord of the Harem, Sis O’Lee, Ormie, Betty Badger and Lake View. August Belmont has named the yearling bay colt byimp. Mr. Pickwick, out of Hen- Zenobia, lopen, which he purchased at the recent Fairview stud sale for $6,100, Pecksniff, A rumor Comes from St. Paul to the effect that the Twin City. Jockey Club races will not run the full seventeen days. J a) op, from the attendance the people up in the North- west do not appreciate the quality of the races, when 4 time Freddie Gebhard goes to his stable Frank McCabe covers up the boxes containing Experiment and Canvas. They are all that Freddie has in exchange for about $40,000 they cost him in purchase money, forfeits ana bets. Changes come strangely with the years. Last season Mike Dwyer id $15,000 for Nomad and said that but forthe fact that he was not well engaged he would have given $40,000 for him if necessary. Last Thursday he ran in a sélling race for $1,125. — THE RING. Billy Madden claims to have secured the management of Joe Goddard, the Australian, who recently whipped Joe McAuliffe, and that he is going to New Orleans for the ex- instatement of William A. Rowe, one of the most famous professionals of this country, has been refused. Seven men have forfeited their amateur stauding by violation of the L. A. W. rules, and nave been declared pro. fessionals. They are Lloyd Ross, Merton Carpenter and Cuarles Mack of Sterling, LIL. ; Arthur E. Smith of Chicago, and H. B. Boyer, G. G. Whitcomb, and Mr. Beardslee of Mor- rison, Ill. A number of men have been sus- pences for riding tn unsanctioned races, » W. Bristol, E. A. Lewis, W. D. Miner, E. W. Wilson, L. A. White and G. G. Keiser of Waterbury, Conn., have been suspended for thirty days: G. F, Reitzler and W. Schimmell of iliwaukee, for sixty days, and O. P. Slater of Sioux Vity for ninety days. There are forty-four cycling clubs in Chicago and all are in flourishing condition. Twenty- seven of these are located in clubhouses and half of that number either occupy club- houses built for them or will do so In the near future. As theses clubs average over 100 members each it will be readily seen that Chicago’s club membership is 5,000 or more. In the same line of reasoning, but one rider in six belongs to a cyclingclub. Chicago has, therefore, over 80,000 members of the cycling fraternity. WHEEL NOTES. Touring on the wheel becomes more popu- lar as the improvements in machines looking | to the Ccomfort.and convenience of riders be- come more numerous. Arthur A. Zimmerman speaks interestingly of the patronage extended to athietic and cycié meets in hngland, and considers that country superior to America in this respect. The attendance of 10,000to 18,000 people ata meeting is not unusual. A relay race from Washington to Pittsburg will be started Tuesday, Aug. 9, under the auspices of the Columbia Clubof Washing- ton. A message from President Harrison will be delivered to Mayor Gourley at the end of the ride. itis highly probable that Fournier, the speedy French racing man, will journey to kngiand forthe purpose of having ashy at the recorcés. He will be accompanied, should he go, by Echaiie, Anthony, Charron, Med- inger and others to whose pacing he is used. He is in splendid form just now. CRICKET. Lonpox, Aug. 4.—The great Surrey and Nottingham cricket match was won this afternoon by Notts’ four wickets. It now looks certain that the county championship for this season will go to Notts. SPORTING NOTES. A cablegram from Paris says: ‘‘Billiardist Slosson leaves to-day ona longtrip through Switzerland, visiting Bale, Interiaken, Lu- cerne and Geneva, finishing itall witha visit to Aix-les-Bains and sailing for America on the 2lst of September.’’ Aten-mile pedestrian race for veterans is one of the events soon tooccurin England. One of the starters will be Jackson (the American Deer), whois now in his 72d year. SILKE UMBRELLAS ($2.50 TO $15.) The finest stock in America For both ladies and gentlemen.

Philip Mattmann’s residence, a one-story frame building at 4049 Kossuth avenue, was destroyed by fire about 2:30 o’clock this morning, a8 was also the adjoining building on the east, owned and occupied by Jeremiah White, The furniture of both houses was saved, The loss on each building was about $1,000, but it will fall for the most part on the insurance companies. The cause of the fire is unknown, The alarm was turned in by John Armstrong. Not such flowing Igkes only as the Rio Negroandthe Madera, but the Purus, the Yavari, the Qurua, the Hingo, the Papajos, and dozens of other streams rarely mentioned on this side oftheIstnmus, enter the main river through a delta miles in width and deep enough for the largest river steamers of the St. Lawrence. About the middle of summer these streams begin to rise, those from ‘the south- west first, those from the northwest and north a few weeks later, and a fortnight after the arrival of the second sup- plement the valley of the Maranon, the **wild hog river,’’ as the early colonists called the Amazon, becomes a paradise of swamp-loving brutes. The tapis, the peccari, the fish otter celebrate the picnic season of their summer life, and herds of wild deer be- gin their westward exodus. Near Monte Beira, in the province (now ‘‘sState’’) of Matto Grosso, the woods in midsummer get fullof game,as a hundred vears ago the foot- hills of the southern Alleghanies swarmed with wild pigeons when the forests of the North were buried tn snow. A more than usually sudden rise of the flood cuts off many of these fugitives, who are thus reduced to the altenative of maktng for the highest accessible ground, further east, till every knoll becomes a hill of refuge, crowded with timid prutes wbose survival depends on their escape from the giant cats ann boas who may approach their stronghold by swimming, if the water should have submerged too largea portion of the continuous forest, About two months after the beginning of the rainy season the deluge ofthe lowlands reaches its maximum. Thousands of square miles are submerged so effectually that canoes can be paddled through forests appar ently free from underbrush, since only the taller.trees, with their network of climbing vines, rise like islands above the surging waters. The swollen rivers have found new currents, and broad, gurgling streams twist and eddy throughthe leafy wilderness tear- ing off whole groups of trees with all their roots, but makingamends by depositing hil- locks of driftwood, which soon yet covered with tufts of new vegetation. The pressure of the surging flood against these mounds of alluvium soon becomes enor- mous, but the deep rooted stems of the adan- sonia and the canoho tree may resist till new deposits of driftwood consolidate a number of mounds, thus forming good-sized Islands, witha down-stream base of perhaps halfa mile, buta narrow head deflecting the cur- rent leftand right, like the wedge-shaped frontofa stout bridge pier. At the time of their incipiency these new islands may be tenanted only by river lizards, but necessity fsthe mother of successful exploration, as well as of invention, and a weekx after its } birth the driftwood hill swarms with animal refugees, hogs, deer and capybaris, jostling each other in their struggle for a base of operations, thus often getting noisy enough | to altract the prowling carnivora. The climbing talent of the great cats saves them thetrouble of emigration. The jaguar and the ocelot become entirely arboreal, traveling like monkeys from branch to branch, and making themselves at home in the tree tops; so much so, indeed, that some of them goto housekeeping and raise a litter of cubs In the cavity of a hollow tree. Their larder is replenished by all sorts of pheasants and woodhens, who make their headqnarters in the underbrush, but whoare now obliged to take up lodgings on the lower branches of the unsuDmerged trees. By climbing around the stem and rising sud- denly in view an ocelot can scare a roost of gallinaceous fowls ont of their wits and strike down two or three of the clumsy youngsters before the whtole flock contrives to take wing. A swimming deer in these submerged tangle words has nochance at allagainst the pur. suitofanenemy thatcan leap from branch to branch or climb along the viaruct-like cables of the great NWana vines, anda jaguar would not begin to regret a phenomenal deluge tillthe waters had closed over the tops of the tallest palms. The Brazillan antbear survives the rainy season ina pecullar wayof his own. His favorite hunting grounds, the big ant nilis of the underbrush, are soaking under twenty feet of water, and tree ants hug the nooks of their dens during the season of constant showers. In spite of his big claws their enemy is not prepared torip bigtrees in quest of his food, and his proficiencyin climbing cannot compare. with that of the big cats, but his talent for long fasts is unrivaled even in thisera of Tanner freaks. One drink per week will do him for a period of ten or twelve weeks, during which he husbands his vital resources on the principle of minimum expenditure. With his bushy tail coiled about his neck he dozes away therainy day under the roof ofa failen tree, while his physical torpor is notapttobe offset by an excess of mental activity. Pet dealers often warn their cus- tomers against the blunder of mistaking that lethargy forasymptom of disease, and an experienced menagerie keeper once told me that he would not waste acent on stimu- lating drugs tillthe patient should seem to consider ten days too long a time between drinks. It has been asserted that an antbear’s fore- legs are powerful enough to hug a panther to death, but itis probable thata jaguar could break his head at the first blow, and at all events the tyrant of the Brazilian forests must findit much harder to cope with the agility of the tree-climbing monKeys. In day-time they elude his pursult so easily that they will finish a good mealof wild grapes before deigning to notice his approach, and in the exuberance of his confidence the ring- tailed Capuchin monkey will often turn upon the would-be murderer and follow him for hours with jeers and whoops of defiance. At night the owl eyes of the cat are, how- ever, apt toturn the scales, and the horrible uproars of the moonlit forests can in nine cases out of ten be traced tothe panic ofa monkey swarm waked out of their best sleep by the screech of a dying relative and yelling away with might and. main inthe hopeof confusing, if not scaring, the hidden enemy, The only compensation of these midnight horrors is the circumstance that during the rainy season a monkey can drink anywhere and is not obliged to approach the prohibi- tion districts of the river shore, where the eyes of lurking cats shine with a forbidding gleam and where a thirsty visitor is apt to **see spakes’’ in a most realistic sense of the word, LURES FOR POOR FISHES, Artificial Baits Calculated to Deceive the Wisest Finny Victims. From the Washington Star. ‘‘These little green frogs are something new for bait,’’ said a dealerin anglers’ sup- plies toa Star writer. ‘‘They are made of soit India rubber. Hereare earthworms, also of the same material, threaded on hooks, They save a great dealof trouble when real ones are scarce, and young ladies provided with them while fisning do not have occasion to constantly annoy their male escorts with requests that their lines be attended to.
