Wickham, on North Taylor Avenue, Entered by » Thieves Who Secreted Themselves and ‘Waited Their Chance—Two Thousand Dollars Taken From a Vest Pocket—A Footprint in the Dust the Only Clue. Last night the residence of Charles A. Wick- ham, proprietor of the Grand Restaurant, 814 St, Charles street, the residence being lo- cated on the northwest corner of Taylor and McPherson avenues, in the West End, was burglarized of $2,000 in cash and a lot of valuable jewelry. The robbery was commit- ted after the burglars had chloroformed Mr. Wickham-and his wife and sister, and it is now known that the burgiar or burglars were secreted in the house all night awaiting the opportunity to thus chloroform its in- matesand then get away with their rich booty. The startling story wasthe talk of all the employes and patrons of the Grand Restau- rant from an eariyhour this morning. Mr. Wickham’s first step upon cOming down- town had beento notify the police and then to return to his residence with Detective Pat Lawler to put an investigation under Way. The private watchman of that block, whose name Mr. Wickhan thinks. is Murphy, Was not at home to-day and Detective Lawler is looking for him. The only clew to the identity of the burglar and chloroformer is the measurement of the im- print of his shoeih the dust of the front yard of the Wickham residence. A short time after the Wickham house was burgiarized the robbers were disturbed in the work of sacking the houseof Mr. A. L. Berry of the Berry-Horn Coal Co., just across the street from the Wickhams. Mr. Berry awoke and fred twoshotsatthe unseen thieves in the dark, forcing them to flee. USED CHLOROFORM. Mr. Charlies H. Wickham was seen by a Post-DisPaTCH reporter who had heard the story atthe Grand Restaurant. He gave the detatis of the chioroforming and burglary as follows: | **Last night whenIwent home,’’ he sata, ‘*‘my wife and sister told me there wasa burglar hidden in the bouse. They had heara him down stairs, but were afraid to investigate, beingalone. I laughed at them, because they have always been springing burglar and ghost stories on me. But to satisfy them I took a lamp.and made a very thorough search of the house, as I thought, from the cellar to the garret. Then I went upstairs and took off my over- coat, coat and vest, and hung them acrossa chair. In the inside breast pocket ofthe vest was the sum of $2,000 in $100 bills, done up in a roll and secured with rabber bands. Noone, not even my wife, knew that I had taken this money home last night. Lintended to use it as a surprise to my partner to-day in paying of some notes’ that we have on two other restaurants here, one on Seventh street and one next door to the dime museum. Shortly after that we went to bed. Again during the night my wife woke me up and said she was sure there wasa burglarin the house. 1 quieted her, laughing at her, and went to sleep again. ‘*This morning lwas awakened by the sun streaming in the room. **I] generally get up before daybreak, being wakened by the night-watchman ringing our front door bell, but he did not ring it this -morning. When I got up I fell suddenly to the floor. Ilarose agdin andtried to walk, but fell once more from a strange weakness and bDblind- mess. I thought I must have been setzed th a sudden fainting. spell. After awhile I recovered somewhat and then tried to arouse my wife, but cou!d not. Inext wentto my sister’s room, and after much difficulty aroused her. Then, following much effort, we at last awoke my wife. The smetl of chloroform was plainly noticeable in the rooms. Papers, etc., were scattered about the floor. ‘The firstthingI jooked for when I realized what must have happened was the $2,000 in my vest pocket. It was gone. All mv wife’s jewelry and about $50in money which she had was gone also. Iheonly things of that nature not taken were a diamond stud in my shirtand my wife’s watch, set with dlia- monds. My wife’s pocketbook had been rified and then thrown on the ground onut- side the house. The print of a man’s shoe leaving the house was in _ the dust of the fuont whlk. It was abouta No. 10shoe. Thisis the only clue we bave. Last night, I Suppose, after we had been robbed, Mr. Berry, across the street, was awakened by robbersin his house and flred at them, frightening themaway. He did not see them and so can give no description. Our night watchman Was an old man whose namelI think is Murphy. His _ fallure to wake meup and to show up afterwards is strange. know he could not have rung the front door bell, because the front door was wide open, as the robbers had left it. The parlor window was alsoopen. Mr. Berry’s front door and parlor window were also wide open. WHERE WAS THE WATCHMAN? ‘*Both houses are right under the electric light on that corner, so that the night watchman, had he been doing his duty, must have seen all these open doors. and windows. The number of my house is 401 North ‘Taylor avenue. I am sure that we were all chloroformed by the burglars, who must have been hidden in the house all night. ‘*When Ireported the case to the police Detective Lawler was sent out with me. We made inquiries for the night-watchman, but could not find bim. Idonot know where he lives. Lawler is working on the case now.’’ —_—_— Crashed in a Tunnel.

Their boat was gone, but their effects were stillin the cabin. Isailed on the 5th for Glacier Bay. On the 6th inIcy Straits, just before rounding the entrance of Glacier Bay. we met Prof. Retd and one assistant inasmall 15-foot boat, with which they were tryingtoreach Junia, In order to obtain assistance. One assistant had been left atthe giacier with the Instru- ments and baggage of the party, as the boat was too small tocarry more than the two men They had been two days in making the thirty miles, which they were then distant fromthe glacier, and hada limited amount of hard bread only in the way of provisions. I took them on board with their boat and stood off into Glacier Bay, nut as the weather came on thick and rainy 1 anchored ati p. m. in Bart- lett Bay. The weather baving been cleared on the following morning I proceeded up Glacier Bay, and although it was well filled with ice, I succeeded in making the face of the glacier at 3:30 p. m., when the third man of the party was tound and taken on board, together with all instruments and effects. Leaving the glacier at 4p. m., we were clear of the bay and the ice at 7:30 0’clock and reached Sitka at 3 p. m. on Sept. 6. Prof. Reid stated in explanation of his ab- sence from the cabinon Sept.1, when the Oity of Topeka arrived, that he had gone in the steamer Queen. which had reached the glacier on Aug. 30, to the great Pacific giacter, twenty ‘miles distant from these, to finish some work there, expecting to be back before the arrival of the City of Topeka, which he anticipated would be on the 2d or 3d of September. He had completed his work on Aug. 31 and had returned to within eight miles of his cabin and could neither see the ship nor be seen by her an ac- count of intervening land and ice. The coast survey steamer Hassler and the seized vessels Coquitiam and Winnifred are now inthis harbor. I have secured tire Pinta at her winter mooring, asI know of nothing tO require her preselice elsewhere and as the season has arrived when severe storms and general bad weather may be expected. BROUGHT THE SEALERS TO. SEATTLE, Wash., Oct. 6.—The sealing schooner Wiilard Ainsworth returned yes- terday from her maiden sealingcruise, which netted her 880 skins. The Ainsworth had an exciting brush with the U. 8. ship Mohican, on May 23. Last year the terms of the modus vivendl were that any schooner leaving port before the agreement had been mace, and not being warned, could not be seized for taking seals inthe Behring sea. Nearly all the schooners th!s year left port before the new modus vivend! had been signed, and aid not known that it provided for seizure in the sea whether ornot warning had been given. Consequently every schooner that sighted a man-or-war tried to get away to avoid warn- ing. On the day mentioned, when, some- where to the scuthwest of Middleton Island, the Ainsworth sighted the Mohican and ciapped on ail sail to escape. ‘Ihe cruiser gave chase and with steam and sail overtook her. When she Was almost alongside. the Ainsworth put about and got away some minutes before the Mohican could get around, but when she did she bore down on the schoon- er very fast. The Ainsworth went about and gotaway again. The commander ofthe cruiser then evidently lost his temper, fora gun was run out forward. This time when "she came within halling distance she commenced bla- zingaway. YTive shots were fired, and then Capt. Cantillion concluded to stop. No dam- age was done, asthe shots whistied through the rigging, some of the{crew narrowly es- caping belng hit. Ensign Harrison, a nephew of President Harrison, boarded the schooner and served official warning to keep out of the sea. / NAVAL CONSTRUCTION. WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 6.—The two naval ships for which proposals were issued by the Navy Department last week will contain anew feature in modern naval construction and'which our navy will be the first to adopt. Each vessel will contain three smoke fun- nels, 100 feet high, or higher by thirty or forty feet than any smokestacks on naval or merchant ships, with the exception of the English merchant steamer Scot, which has adopted a high stack. These new stacks, it is thought, will do away with forced draft. CARMAUX MINERS. No Indications of Yielding by Either Side to the Controversy. Paris, Oct. 6.—It was hoped that some ar- rangement would be arrived at to settle the long continued struggle of the miners at Car- maux, who areon strike because of the dis- charge by the mining company of M. Calvig- nac,a working miner, who was some time ago elected Mayor of Carmaux. The company claimed that he devoted too muth of his time to bis municipal duties and dispensed with his services. The men demanded his reinstatement, and when this was refused a majority of the miners went on strike. Much disturbance has resulted and a number of disorderly miners have been sent to prison. Neither side will yleld an inch, though it is generally thought thatifa littie more generous elas- ticity was shown on each side the trouble could be easily adjusted. To-day the union held a meeting and decided that they would continue the struggle. The glassworks at Carmaux employ many hands and they aiso are on a strike. They went out in sympathy with the miners in the latter’s efforts to secure the reinstate- iment of M. Caivignac, STREET CAR MEN STRIKE. MEMPHIS, Tenn., Oct. 6.—The conductors and motormen ofthe Citizens’ Street Rail- way struck this morning for 18 Cents per hour and a ten-hour day. They have been getting 14 cents. A few cars are running and the company ex- pects to have the lines in full operation with non-union men. W. E. Wade, a striker, is under arrest for drawing a pistol on a volun- teer motorman.

TOPEKA, Kan., Oct. 6.—Democrats from all the meeting of the State Central Committee, which has been called for 4 o’clock this after- noon, This committee meeting will be the most important the Democrats have held. It will have to deal with the bolters’ conven- tion, and the Democrats who have been con- sulted are pretty well agreed to the policy to be pursued. An address will be issued to the voters of the State, calling attention to the bolt of the alleged stalwart wing. It will be an outspoken manifesto and the issues will be clearly drawn. There was placedin the hands of the committee a circular from Clay County, which contains a letter from William Mitchell toa ee) Clay Center, offering him two railroad The story which accompanies the is that this Democrat first oo We: Be Simpson, Chairman Republican State Central Committee, requesting passes to attend the Stalwart Democratic Convention.

Yours truly, WM. MITCHELL. A number of the Democratic committeemen from the soutnwest bring proofs showing that the bills for the Democratic convention were circulated by postmasters and that John Showalter, Assistant Bank Commlis- sioner, and other Republican workers have been engaged in working up a crowd. The Democratic Congressional Committee from the First District will demand thatthe State Central Committee use its influence to force Fred Close, the People’s nominee, from the track in the interest of Ed Carroll, the Democratic nominee. The situation in the First District will be the most embarrass- ing whichthe State Central Committee will have tocontend with. The Populists are de- termined to Keep Close in the fight, ag it ts believed that the election of Col. A. A. Harris depends upon it. Chairman Jones and Dick Morris of the Executive Committee take the position that the State Central Committee has no right to interfere in this matter and it is probable thatthe Central Committee will decide to leave the matter tn the hands of the two Cen- tral Committees in the First District. HAMBURG BILLS OF HEALTH, passes. letter How the Normannia Secured Her Sailing Papors—Flague Spots. HAMAURG, Oct. 6.—An Official statement has been made regarding the granting of Dilis of health to the steamers Moravia and Nor- mannia, sailing hence for New York in the latter part of August when it is alleged the presence of cholerain Hamburg was known tothe authorities. According to this state- ment the official register of the chancellery ofthe Hamburg Senate shows that the Mor- avia’s certificate was issued on Aug. 16 when there was no suspicion of an outbreak of cholera in Hamburg. At the sitting of Aug. 24, when the cholera reports of the medical inspecior was first considered, the Senate ordered that the issue of clean bills of health be stopped, but the Normannia’s bill of health, which was dated Aug. #4, had been delivered before the issue was suspended. The chancellery register, containing all the proofs cited inthe statement, has been handed tothe American Vice-Consul for ex- amination. The public schools of Hamburg will be opened to-day. Direct communication with Heligoland has been resumed. ‘ AT BUDA PESTH. VIENNA, Oct. 6.—Sad reports come from Buda Pesth, where the direst confusion resigns.

LA GUAYRA, Venezuela, Oct. 6.—A desper- ate battle has just taken place at Los Teques, a small town on the railroad itne to Valencia ata distance about equal between this place and Caracas. Six hundred were killed and many high government officials captured. Crespo hag struck another decisive biow which, follow- ing upon his previous successes since the revolution beganin last March, means vic- tory for the Crespists. To-day Caracas is more than excited, forat a distance of but ten miles from its city limits Crespo has sig- nally defeated the Government forces. Crespo has announced his determination to enter the Capital to-morrow. Matters are now getting warm forthe citizens of Cara- cas, and the prestige ‘of Crespo’s success may cause many ofthem to fly to his flag. From detalls received here the fight was a most bloudy one, 600 men being left dead on the fleld of battle. Considering the size of the contending armies this tndicates serious fighting on both sides. But stubborn as was the resistance of the Government levies they had to fly before the Crespists ana were utterly routed. Crespo had at his disposal some 14,00 men including 6,000- brought to him by Gen. Colino, who joined him some days agoat Valencia. Under Crespo were Gen. Vegas and Gen. Quintana, who started some days ago, by different roads, on the way to Caracas, their objective point. The Revolutionist General possessed twelve pieces ofartiliery and had the assistance of several Americans, besides that of Gen. Widener, a German, and Gen. Betalll, an Itallan. Gen. Pulido, an uncle of the Acting President. was in command of the Govern- ment forces, numbering 6,000, and went to Los Teques, to takeup a position in order to repel Crespo’s advance on the capital, which was, thus denuded of troops. This defeat robs Acting President Villegas Pudo of his army. All the Government officiais at Los Teques and those accompanying the presi- dental army are reported to be prisoners in Crespo’s camp. Crespo had madea tormal demand for the surrender ofthe capital of Venezuela. He has backed up his demand with the an- nouncemenpnt that he intends to enter the city of Caracas to-morrow at the head of the revolutionary army. La Guayra is stili in the hands of the Government, but it canAot hold out against the victorious Crespites. Forelgners here are now in jeopardy. It may be im- possible to control the murderously in- clinea populace and the ruflianly element of the soldiery. It may be looked Caracas will submit tolt, the inevitable. It has been reported within the last few Gays that Acting President Villegas Pulido was anxious tohave Gen. Urdaneta return to take command of the troops, which he in- tended should resist Crespo’s entry into Caracas. But Urdaneta Isa fugitive and is between two fires, as, on his return here, he would have to deal not only with Crespo, but with Admiral Walker, and he is practl- cally an outlaw. upon as certain that as it now seems TRAINED GUNS ON THE FORTS, NEw York, Oct. 6.—A letter received in this city yesterday from La Guyera, under date Sept. 18, says that upon the recommendation of Benjifro Palacio, the Caracas Govern- ment recently cancelled the exequateur of Mr, Phillip C.

The Bold Brigands Courageously Met by | Brave Officers and Citizens and the Plans of the Robbers Thwarted, Though With a Terrible Sacrifice of the Lives of Honest Men—The Story of the Plot and Its Execution Told by Emmet Dalton. : COFFEYVILLE, Kan., Oct. 6.—The streets are packed to-day with crowds of excited people from all’ parts of this section, ‘attracted by the terrible Daiton tragedy of yesterday. On every street corner, in every alley stand groups of citi- “gens eagerly discussing the attempted bank . shotguns. intes robberies yesterday, with its attendant tragic results. At the city jail an awning has been impro- vised, under which lie the four dead bandits in the coffins provided by the county, with a guardto see that they are not disturbed. Since morning a procession of sightseers which seems to be never-ending, have viewed the dead outiaws. The desperadoes, cold in death, their facés uncovered, seems to possess an attraction forthe curious which is almost without parallel. Among the thousands who have viewed the bodies are many who have known the Daltons for years, and while their crimes deserve to place them Dbe- yond the pale of sympathy, here and there are to be found people who can scarcely repress a sigh of regret for the fate of the dead men. The stairway leading to the room in which Emmett Dalton lies !s always surrounded bya dense crown of men and women, who do their utmost to pursuade the guard to let them pass up the stairway to the presence of the wounded man. All sorts of reasons are advanoed by the people for their requests, but with few ex- ceptions they are not complied with. Thrsugh the courtesy of Sheriif Callahan your reporter was allowed to enter the room where young Emmet Dalton was found sleeping. He had just gone through the ordeal of having his wounds dressed and was weak from loss of blood. He, however, talked alittle. The burde nof all was that Bob wanted to lower the record of all bank robbers and led them into what proved to be a death trap. » THE DARING RAID. The raid of the Dalton bandits on the banks yesterday was the boldest move ever planned by the robber bands who liave terrorized the West, exceedingin audacity anything ever conceived in the fertile brain of Jesse or Frank James. Its very Garing was counted upon by the originator of the scheme to bring success. But it fatled, and certainly ends the career of the men who for four years have set all law at defiance in the Souttiwest. It was almost 10 o’clock when the robbers rode into the town, six ofthem, riding good horses, and splendidly armed with Winches- ters and revolvers. They came boldly down the principai street which at that hour was well filled with teams and pedestrians. Rid- ing straight intothe business portion of the town, they turned their horses into an alley and stopped immediately in front of the city jail, where they dismounted andtied their animals to the fence. quickly passed east inthe alley leadingto the plaza, and four of them were observed to enter the bank of C. M. Condon & Co., while the other two went across street and passed into the First National bank. BAITLE WITH THE BANDITS. Two men having business there went into the bank. They were both stopped at the muzzles of Winchesiers. This attracted at- tention ov the streetand tle cry of ‘‘Bank Robbers’’ soon rang out on every side. Dozens of men rushed into Boswell & Co.’s and seized Winchesters and fliied their pockets with ammunition and secured good positions facing the bank in the street. As many more men ran to Isham Bros. & Mansur’s hardware store, where they seized upon every availa- ble weapon within reach and stationed them- selves behind teams and other barricades in view of both banks. MThe men with their Winchesters had opened fire on the robbers of the banks through the | plate-glass windows, and for the space of two minutes a lively fusillade was kept up. The highwaymen at the First National Bank ran out ofthe back door into an alley,around a half/ block of business houses into the prin- cipal street and made for thelr horses. Those in the Condon Bank passed out of the front door and ran for their horses over the same route the entire party had passed a few min- utes before. This brought them into full View of about fifty of our citizens, many of whom were armed with Winchesters and By the time that the robbers reached their horses five of them were upon the ground. Marshal Chas. T. Connelly, who atthe first alarm ran to a gunshop, near where'the gang’s horses were hitched, seized a Winehester and metthe robbers face to face as they reached theiranimals.. Ile was shot through the heart with a Winchester and fell dead tween two of the highwaymen. THE TERRIBLE RESULT. Before reaching their horses, however, the marauders had used Wincbesters with ter- rible effect, and four men of the citizens’ party lay dead. They are C. J. Brown, City Marshai Connelly, George Cubine, L.M. Bald- win. Besides these, Hon. Thomas J. Ayres, Cashier First National Bank; T. A. Reynolds, and C./P. Grimp were badly wounded. John J. Kloebr, a liveryman; A.F. Seaman, a barber; C. K. Smith, another barber; Par- ker Williams, Mack Webb and several others, followed closely upon the heels of the retir- ing raiders, pouring shot into them with deadly effect. s Five of them fell within a space of twenty feet ofithe point where their horses stood tn the alley. One of the party, however, during the confusion managed to get on his horse and roiie a half mile west of town, where he fellfrom the animal and died by the road- side. His horse was alsowounded and died within ashort distance of his rider. The s acted coolly and deiiberately. Four | gang fell pierced with from five to | shots, while Emmet Dalton was rough and through, ibut is still alive. iobbers who fell are: Bob Dalton,Grat- iton, Joe Evans, John Moore. tz the fight with the robbers over shots were fired into the Condon Bank jon the outside. One of the robbers otin the arm wnhlle in this bank, the ming from the outside. Two shots om a Winchester in the hands of the robbers through a glass door in don Bank, and it was one of these t struck Ayers. The large plate h the First National Bank and at s, as well as at Condon’s bank, was ly perforated by shots from the Wipn- chesters of the gg band, who risked their lives to rid the community of one of the most daring gangs of highwaymen that ever any country.

Father began to leisurely pass the currency opt to them, until he had given them all that was on the counter. One of the fellows told him he wanted the moneyin the safe.

They then put us in front of them and marched us out through the front door, Father was the first to go out. Justthen the shooting began on the street, and the rob- bers closed the deor and conducted Mr, Shepard and myself out of the back door in the alley and turned us loose. They left father on the outside in front of the bank. Just as we got intothe alley Lucius Baldwin came out of Isham’s store witha pistol in his hand, when one of the Daltons, whoinl rec- ognized as Emmet, pulled his Winchester and shot Baldwin. The robbers then ran out of the alley on to Elghth street, and we put ourselves out of their range.

Our family consists of my mother, two sistersand myself. My father was a fearless man, however, and lam sure he did his duty.’’ THE BANDIT’S STORY. Emmett Dalton made the following ante- mortem statement to-day: **Oct. 1, 1892, I met the boys south of Tulse and they asked me how much money I had. itold them about $20. I asked them how much they had, and they said about $400. I asked them what they were going to do with lt. They said that this town had been trying tocapturethem, I saidthat was a He, for we used to have tots of friends here. Bob said he could discount the James boys’ work and go up and rob both Coffeyville banks in one da Ituld them that 1 did not want any of fT at all. He said I had better go along and helpand get some of the money and leave the country ; that if lstayed around here I was sure to get caught or killed by myself. ‘ihe morning of Oct. 3 we saddled up north of Tulsa, iu the Osage Nation, and rode twenty miles toward Coffeyville and talked the matter over. I went out of love for my brothers, forI knew that the author- ities would get after me anyhow, and I would have no mouey to get out of the country. We camped at the head of Hickory Creek at Lim- ber Hilt, about twelve miles from Coffeyville, the night ot Oct. 4.

My mother was a Sister to Cole Younger’s father.’”’ He confessed that the gang was responsible for the Red Rock, Wharton and other train robberies in the Indian Territory, Which had been credited to them. The story of a hidden treasure, he said, was nonesense. ‘“‘Ifthere had been a nidden treasure,’’ he Said, ‘‘we would ail have been alive to-day.

Carpenter of Condon &Co., who had charge of that bank when the robbers en- tered, sald it was exactly 9:40 o’clock when the men entered the bank, and pointing Winchesters at him commanded him to | hand over the cash: *“*l undertook to parley with them and de- | layed complying as long as I could, when one ofthem passed around behind the counter our private room, where Ball, the cashier, and Mr. Babb, a clerk, were seated atatatle.

A RECORD OF MURDER AND RORBERY. It was the Daltons who first used dynamite asameansof opening express cars. Their last exploit was the holding up of Missouri, Kansas & Texas passénger train No. 2, north- bound, at Adair, Frictay nigirt, July 14,: after overpowering a posse Of ofiicers who were on the train forthe purposeof guarding ir.

Itissupposed that these two Daltons and the two tin California have made‘nine successful train robberies in the Weét and Southwest in the past eigit years, The Daitons first saw the light in Kansas. Their mother, who Is a sister of Cole Younger, one ofthe James gang, is now Hving at Cof- fey ville, Kan, One reason why they have so long evaded »SSE ss | capture is the fact that they have made their |} rendezvous in the Indian ‘lerritory, Lhe Chepokee Strip has no people upon ft at all, and the Creek Nation country its inbabited only by the Indians, who never gave the rob- bers away, and who, in return for a horse or two occasionally, will furnish shelter and provisions. In the Creek country, which is 200 miles long and sixty miles wide, there is dense timber in which any number of men may hide themselves without fear of detection. The Dalton gang traveled with pack horses loaded with provisions, and as the men knew the country like a book they were in little danger after they left the prairie. It was easy enough to track them through the tall prairie grass, but when they reached the timber country, with its deep ravines, it was impossible to follow them suc- cessfully. About $20,000 is now out for tbe heads of the Dalton outfit. This Includes re- wards for var!ous crimes, for these men hest- tate at nothing from borse thieving to mur- der. Up toa few years ago the Daltons had con- fined their rascality to stealing cattle and driving them througb the ‘‘public lands’’ into New Mexico and selling them along the route. Then when they got ready to return to the Territory they would steal a bunch of cattle in New Mexico and bring them home to soll, always returning by a different route. It did no good to indict them. Their friends Gominatea inthe local courts, and even if they were brought to trial they gct off scoit free. Honest cattle- men of the Territory finally grew so exasper- ated at their thievery thatthey organized to rid the territory of the Daltons, and waged bitter waruponthem. It was then that the cattle thieves perforce quit their old prac- tices and turned their attention to train rob- bery. . On the 224 of last month the capture of the Daltons was reported tn New \exico. One ofthe Daitons impersonated an officer, went to Deming and reported the captureof the ang.

Mrs. Hagen was arrested in the iatter part of August, but the case was continued until Oct. 4, on account of the dangerous condition of Mrs, Simmons, who was unable to appear asa@witness. Sheis not able yet to leave the house, and was not present on Tues- day when the case wascalled. Her husband was on hand, however, with the other wit- nesses inthe, case. When he learned that the case had: been dismissed he left, not knowing what -further to do, but learning later in the day that the matter could be reopened by the issuing ofa new warrant he returned yesterday to see if that was going to be done. Theresult of his visit to the Four Courts yesterday and tne full particulars in the case were given to a PosStT-DISPATCH Fre- porter to-day by Simmons and his wife. STORY OF MRS. SIMMONS’ CASE. Mrs. Simmons stated that she was intro- duced to Mrs. Hagen, the midwife, some time in June last by Mrs. Lilly Overmeyer or Obermeyer of 1722 North Eleventh street, and the midwife, she stated, performed several operations on her. One was at the midwife’s house, she said, 2024 Biddle street, and the others were at her own house about the mid- aqlie of August. Mrs. Sophia Wagner, who lives at Thirteenth and Branch streets, Mrs. Simmons § said, witnessed the operation at Mrs. Hagen’s house and the woman who introduced her to the midwife, she said, was present at one of the operations In herown house. When she, wastaken seriously ill Dr. William Reilly was calledin and Mrs. Simmons told him what had been done. Simmons stated that Dr. Rellly attended the case a few days and refused to have any- thing more todo with it, and Dr. W. Seger of Broadway and Angelica street was called in. Twodays later Drs. Robert O’Rellly, W. C. Green and Dr. Graves were called in and took Mrs. Simmons’ statement, and reported the matter to the Heaith Department and Mrs. Hagen was arrested. Dr. O’Rellly, Simmons said, took his wife’s statement. A few days later Simmons again changed doc- tors and called in Dr. George L. Mueller of 110242 Brooklyn street, who has been treating the case ever since. WHAT DIERKES SAID. ‘*The case was first set,’’ said Mr. Sim- mons, ‘‘for Sept. 5and Prosecuting Attorney Dierkes said he investigated itfully. Whenl calied yesterday at his office I asked a man sitting In a chair, who seemed to be in charge, about the case. He turned toa man sitting beside him and asked him about the case and the man began to explain the technicality on which the warrant was quashed. Just then Mr. Dierkes came in, andthe manI had spoken to said to him: ‘Mr. Dierkes, what were the grounds on which the information in the Hagen case was quashed?’ and Mr. Dierkes explained the same as the other man was doipyz when Mr. Dierkes entered, and addea: ‘Besides, I have information that they tried tn extort money from the woman. Itisa case of blackmall. Ihave alsothe statement of a physician that no malpractice was com- mitted.’ DR. BROOME’S INTEREST. ‘** Whois the physician?’ I asked. _.** * Dr. Broome,’ replied Mr. Dierkes, and at the same time the man whom I had first 6poken te said to Mr. Dierkes and pointing to ine, ‘That is Mr. Simmons.’ ‘+ *Yes,*saiai, ‘that Is astatementof the defense. Doyou get yourinformation from the defense?’ ** ‘No,’ replied Mr. Dierkes, ‘he isa repu- table physician.’ ‘**Tcan prove,’ saldI, ‘that Dr. Broome cameto Dr. Mueller andasked him to use his:influence with us to settle the case.’ **Well,’ said’ Mr. Dierkes, walking into another Office, ‘itis all overnow. it is no use to talk about it.’ **T then left the buliding. **Dr. Mueller,’’ continued Simmons, ‘‘came to me wiille he was attending my wife and toid me that Dr. Broome had asked himto use his influence with us to set- tle tire case. He said to £0 and see Mrs. Hagen and see what she wanted, thatitcoulddo noharm. I wentto her house one €vening and she asked meif there was nothing that could be done to set- tle.the case. Sheasked me how much it had cost me.for doctors, etc. Itold her I could not. give .fier any answer, would think over the matter; to get advice. She meto ecall again, and that she would talk overthe matter with her husband and Dr. Broome. Itold hershe knew whereto find me, and she said it would not look well for her to call at my house, and I called again, as she requested. Her husband was present, and she said to him several times ‘We willl settle the case, won’t we, papa?’ He would say something like yes, and at last said, ‘we can’t settle anything,’ and I left the house. Thatis allthere is in the Diack- mail business. MKS. HAGEN OFFERED THEM MONEY. ‘*Shortly after Mrs. Hagen was released on bail she came to my house and said she wanted to do something to help me. ‘lhave civen my lawyer $25,’ saidshe. ‘Hud I not better goand get it?’ **] said I did not know anything about her affairs. ‘hen she said, ‘Here is $10’, and she handed meabill. Idid not see whatthe de- nomination of the bill was, but I refused it. She then tried to make my wife’s sister, who was sitting be- side her, take the money, butltold her not totake it. She called again and met my brother and he told me that she tried to make him take money for us. My vrother now in San Francisco, Cal. My wife’ssister is Mrs. Delia Hamschmidt of 6144 Easton avenue.

ROBERT O’REILLY’S STATEMENT. Dr. Robert J. O’ Rellly was seen at his office at Seventeenth street and Wash- ington avenue. stated that he had sat in consultation in the case, and had received a statement from Yrs. Simmons, but said it was given to him in his professional capacity, and that he was, therefore, not at liberty ta state its nature. ‘*With regard to our report to the Board of Heaith,’’ said Dr. O’Rellly, ‘*I don’t think that that is a professionalsecret. Dr. W. ©. Graves, Dr. W. . Green and my- examined Mrs. Simmons on Aug, 30 last, and made areport to Health Commis- sioner Dr. W. H. Brennan stating that we found the patient suffering from metro- peritonitis, which we believed to be the re- sult of injury, and that her condition was critical. That was all the information that we gave, and it was all that was necessary for our purpose, but I un- derstand that the police made an in- vestigation and obtained names and statements. Statements were madeto me but they were hearsay evidence. I havenot been summoned as a witness.’’ DR. BROOME SEEN. Dr. Broome was found in his office to-day and asked regarding his alleged assertion to Mr. Dierkes. *‘*AllI said to Mr. Dierkes,’’ said he, ‘‘was that I did not think that Mrs. Hagen had committed criminal act. I did not the case, and could speak regarding it. Mrs. Hagen is a Christian woman, and I don’t think she wou:d commit a criminal act, and in this belief I ani backed by the whole medical faculty. Iam notseekingto shield Mrs. Hagen. If we thought she was guilty we would not have herinourschool. She isa regular midwife and is also attending athree years’ course in our college. Ibeingthe dean of thecoliege am brought forward a little more in defending her. ‘those people tried to bDiack- mail her and extort money from her, and we simply want to see justice done her.’’ ‘‘How about Dr. Mueller’s statement that you asked him to use his influence with the Simmonses to have'the prosecution of Mrs. Hagen stopped?’’ **T don’t think that Dr. Mueller said that.’ Being assured that Dr. Mueller had made the statement Dr. Broome said: ‘*I told Dr. Mueller tbat I could not see what good the prosecution would do,.’’ Dr. Broome said that he told Dr. Mueller that he might be mistaken with regard to the evidence to which he referred,and Dr. Broome gave tothe reporter an Illustration of how Dr. Mueller might be mistaken. ‘‘While I did not state to Dierkes that there had been no malpractice, I did state it as my opinion to the other physicians. The woman had been taking medicine and believed herself to be ina dell- cate condition, but at the time described there coujd be no such conditions as Dr. Mueller describes. **The case was dismissed, because they did not prosecute it. Ou last Tuesday I and some other physicians were there, and the attorney for the defense, Marshall McDonald, and there was not a soul on the other side. Mr. Dierkes asked me if I thought Mrs. Hagen was guilty and I told himI did not thinks he was. Itold himthat the other side did not want to prosecute the case. That they had tried to obtain money from her, and, falling, did not want to have anything moreto do with it. Simmons wentto Mrs. Hagen and promised to settle itifpaid. The police were in possession of the facts.’’ Dr. Garland Hurt was in Dr. Broome’s office, and stated that he thought that the whole medical profession believed in Mrs. Hagen’s innocence. WHAT THE AUTHORITIES CLAIM. The complaint or warrant against Midwife Mary Hagan was quashed last Tuesday on account of a defect in the wording of. the document. . Marshall F. McDonald, the woman’s attorney, Claimedand Judge Clai- borne sustained himin the claim that the information did not charge a statutory of- fense, inasmuch as the language of the statute defining the offense was not cor- rectly quoted in the complaint. The case was on the docket several weeks before the \ gee ah of the complaint was questioned: The defense at that time claimed to be ready for trial, but as the pros- ecuting witnesses did not show up it was continued forthe State. Judge Geo. W. An- derson, who represented the prosecution, stated this morning that after employing him the Simmons fomenag remained away for some reason or other from his office and the court-room, but that he had the case con- tinued a week the last timeit was called for trialon his own responsibility. Now that the old information had been declared defec- tive he didn’t know whether a new warrant would be issued or not. He was acting as Assistant Prosecuting Attorney of the court self you will find in place of Mr. Estep, who had gone fishing and no application had been made/as yet to bim for a new warrant. Mir. Estep ‘would be away twoorthree days and he expected to act for him the balance of the week. MR. DIERKES* EXPERIENCES, Mr. Dierkes, Prosecuting Attorney of the Court of Criminal Correction, claims that he sent three times to the Stmmons residence for the family to at- tend court as witnesses against Mrs. Hagen and that Detective Gocking brought back word in each instancethat Mr. Simmons didn’t seem to wantto prosecute the case. He (Simmons) claimed that he wasn’t ready yet and wanted to look up some more evi- dence before going on with the case. Simmons when told of the claim that he and his witnesses were not in court when the case was called asserted possitively that they were on hand but were not called. THROUGH THE TEMPLE. Suicide of William M. Runk, a Philadel- Dhia Merchant. PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Oct. 6.—William M. Runk, aged 46 years, a member of the large dry goods firm of Darlington, Runk & Co., a director of the Penn Mutual Life Insurance Co., and a wealthy and infiuentiai citi- zen of Philadelphia, committed suicide at his country home, at St. Davids, near here, at 8 o’clock last evening, by shooting himself through the temple. No cause can be ascribed. He carried $525,000 insurance on his life. He was at his place of business yesterday, and appeared to be extremely nervous, aS he had been for a day or two. Late in the afternoon he went to his home and for two hours his wife noticed that he was irrational, but supposing it was due to some businesstrouble, gave it no especial attention. After sendingone of his sons to the railroad station to meet an employe of the store, he went to his stable and withasma!l Smith & Wesson re- volver puta bullet through his temple, dying instantiy. He was seen to go into the stable by the gardener, and a few minutes later was seen by the same person cold in death. The report of the pistol was not heard, The news ofthe suicide did not reach this city until to-day and because of the prominence ofthe victim it spreaa rapidly. The de- ceased was very wealthy and his business is n fine shape and no cause can be ascribed for his action. The only theory is that his mind became unbalanced and dur- inga fitof mental aberration he ended his life. He leaves two boys by his first wife, one of whom is at Yale, and the other at the University of }Pennsylvanias and chil- dren by the second wife. His city home was 144 North Sixteenth street. MAY TAKE 8IX MONTHS. To No Prospect ofthe Immediate Settlement of Telegraphers’ Grievances. The Missouri Pacific Rallway Telegrapnhers’ Committee did not meet General Manager Smith anda Superintendent of Telegraph Hammond to-day on account of Thursday being a holiday for the employes of the general offices to attendthe Fair, ditor of the Missouri Pacific has prepared a schedule present actual expenses, which will be compared with the schedule asked by the telegraphers’ conference to be held to- morrow. Even if the schedule asked by the telegraphers is granted after certain modifications are made, the official papers will have to be sent to the Ex- ecutive Board of the Missouri Pa- cific system in New York, before any definite steps can be taken. This will con- sume nearly six weeks’ time, very much to the dissatisfaction of the members ofthe committee, who are anxious to settle the dif- ficulty and return home. Eack to Gray Gablas.

Made by American Brewing Qo., St. Louls, HE WAS SENSITIVE, - — Peculiar Cause Assigned for the Suicide of Ernest Hartman HIS SISTER-IN-LAW WANTED TO KISS A BOARDER. Hartman Thought She Was Injuring the Reputation of His House and Slapped Her—She Had Him Arrested and He Shot Himself—The Carondelet Suicide Identified by Her Children. The rash moodinwhich Ernest Hartman sent a bullet into his brain at his home, No. 2607 Gravois avenue, at 10 0’clock last night, points a moral to persons given tosoft sentt- ments and feelings too tender for trifling hurts. Hartman was sent to the City Hospital as soon as an ambulance could be summoned, and died at 4:30 o’clock this morning. His wife, Louisa Hartman,to- day told the story of her husband’s troubles which drove him to suicide. Their home is across the street fromthe old Union Depot railway car stables, and Mrs. Uartman has a large number of motormen and conductors as boarders. Two weeks ago, she stated, her sister, Katie Jeraid, who used to do housework for her, remarked to one of the boarders, ‘*Won’t youlet me Kiss you?’’ Mr. Hartman, who was present, upbraided her for this remark and told her that such conduct would lower the character of the house. Katie did not take Mr. Hartman’s words in good part, but talked back, for which he slapped her on the cheek. Shecalleda policeman and had him arrested, and he, ashamed at the dis- grace, purchased a revolver as soon as he was liberated, and returned to his home, presumably to shoot himself. Katie, according to Mrs. Hartman, saw him coming, and locked the front and rear gates. He tried the front gate and, seeing that he was barred out, he pulled out his re- volver and placed it to his head. Mrs. Hart- man saw the movement and implored him not to kill himself. He relented from his purpose for her sake and_ she lethimin. Katie left aboutthe same time, but, according to Mrs. Hartman, ber hus- band, Ernest, did not recover from his fit of despondency. He constantly brooded over calumnies about him which he believed that his sister-in-law was spreading- He was es- pecially fearful, said Mrs, Hartman,of certain things which he thought that Katie had tola to her nncle, who, according to Mrs. Hart- man, is a certain Father Brockhaven ‘of O’Fallon, Mo. Mr. Hartman was very much ashamed to face his priestly uncle, who was expected in the city to-day. Added tothis was the loss of his position. Hartman was employed ipa planing millin North st. Louls. He had been late several times recently, and yesterday morning he took his belongings and went to board near his place of business. Last night he came home and told his wife that he had been discharged and intended to shoot himself. She begged him nottodoso, and assured him that she sided with him, and not with her sister. But about 10 o’clock he found the revolver, which she took from him two weeks ago, and fired the fatal shot through his right temple. Mrs. Hartman did not know why he haa been discharged, but suspected that be bad hada fight with his brother-in-law, Jotun Jeraid, with whom he had trouble before. Hartman was 25 years oldand had been married two years. Identified as Mrs. Mary Zimmer. The body of a woman found in the Missis- sippi River, nearthe Vulcan Iron Works, by Louls Schmidt and Andrew Hanson at 5 o’clock last evening, was identified at the Morgue this morn- ing as that of Mrs, Mary Zimmer, a widow 46 years. of age, residin with her four daughters and one son at 41 Clayton road.

Lowpon, Oct, 6.—Lord Alfred Tennyson, poet laureate, died at Haslemere at 1 o’clock this morning, Immediately after the death of Lord Tennyson your representative had an interview with Sir Andrew Clark, one of the physicians who attended the poet. Sir An- drew said that Lord Tennyson’s death was the most giorious he had ever seen. There was no artificial light in the room and the chamber was almost in darkness, save where a broad fiood of moonifght poured in through a western window. The moon’s rays fell across the bed upon which.the dying man lay, bathing him in their pure pellucida ligh* and forming a Rembrandt-like background to the scene. Allwas silent save the soughing of the autumn wind as it gently played through the trees surrounding the house, a fitting requiem for the gentle poet who sang of love and the beauties of nature. Motionless Lord Tennyson lay upon his couch, the tide of his life gently and slowly ebbing outinto the ocean ofthe infinite. No rocks of pain or sorrow checked its course or causedaripple upon the outgoing tide. As peacefully and gently as he had lived, so he died, looking untilthe end into the eyes of those Ceartohim. All the members of his family were by his bedside and Sir Andrew Clark remained by his side from the moment of his arrival yesterday until he breathed his last. So gentleand painless was the passing away that the family did not know he had gone until Dr, Clarke broke the news to Lady Tennyson, who bore the closing scenes of her great trial well in spite of her extremely del- icate health. The Hon, Hallam Tennyson,the poet’s son, says that his father’s death was eminently peaceful. He did not show a single trace of suffering to distress his sorrowing relatives and friends. Once ortwice during the night he lifted his eyes tothe face of the watchers by his bedside anda beautiful smile played over his features. No doubtasto the future was in his wan face, andasthe end came he appeared to fall asleep. So restful was he and so calmly did he respond to the beckon- ing hand ofthe angel of death that those who stood beside him scarcely knew that he had passed away. Hallam further says that Lady Tennyson bears up well under the sorrow that has come to her. She was with Lord Tennyson throughout al his sickness and ministered to all his wants so far as it was in‘ her power and all hope was practically abandoned early in the afternoon. The doctors were sur- prised that he lasted through the previous night, so great was his debility. He could take no nourishment and continued to grow weaker and weaker until the end. It may be mentioned asa coincidence that a year ago to-day a man died who was as pre-eminent in his field of labor as was Tennyson in his. On Oct, 6, 15891, Charles Stewart Parnell, the great Irish leader, ' passed away. “~The Pali Mall Gazette thinks that Mr. Glad- Ystone will appoint Algernon Swinburne to the post of Poet Laureate, made vacant by the death of Lord Tennyson, It quotes from a recent articie in the Speaker, written by Mr. Gladstone, entitled ‘‘Poetry in the Nineteenth Century.’’ After awarding Ten- nyson the palm, Mr. Gladstone wrote: ‘*Pressing upon him or walking in the same path we have had many true poets, some extraordinary and many of very considera- ble powers. Among those claiming the first of these descriptions we have mentioned Browning, and merest justice requires that we add Swinburne.’’ The Pali Mali Gazetie adds: ‘‘In view of the abuse Mr. Swinburne has lavished upon Mr. Gladstone, the choice would be character- istic and an instance of a great man’s mag- nanimity.’’ Few privileged visitors entering Aldworth House are not interested in the many things lying about the entrance hall on chairs and on the floor. Onan umbrella stand Is a large collection of soft-brimmed half brigand-like hats, black and white, whichjare so familiar in the public portraits of the dead poet. Dr. Clark saw Lora Tennyson in London three months ago. He then told Hallam Tennyson he thought his father was break- ingup. Sir Andrew said to-day that death was partially the result of suppressed gout, complicated with influenza, but it was chiefly due to naturaldecay. He added: ‘*His end Lord Tennyson might well have pictured and earnestly desired as his lot,’’ Lord 1 many Say spoke to his wife about an bour before he died, and his words to her were the last he uttered. Lady Tennyson bent over her dying husband and he whis- pere‘la few words to her, His features in death bear a look of absolute peace. The Tennyson family have no burial ground, and it is expected that Lora Tennyson’s remains will be interredin Westminster Abbey. His funeral will be a public one. GERMAN MILITARY BILL. COUNT EULENBURG DISPLEASED WITH CAPRI- VI’sS CONDUCT, BERLIN, Oct. 6.—Count Eulenburg, Presi- dent of the Prussian Cabinet, hesitates to support the new military bill because he is extremely displeased at the strange conduct of Chancellor Caprivi, who, although no longer Premier, had moved itin the name of Prussia without consulting him, Caprivi’s initiative before the Federal Council Is therefore in danger of being disa- vowed by Count Eulenburg. Several other members of the Prussian Cabinet are opposed to the modus procedendi, and, notwith- standing the warm protection afforded to the Chancellor by the Emperor, itis feared that a deal of unpleasant friction may arise. The Emperor is striving to paralyze the hostility of the current and hopes to suc- ceed. Count Eulenburg’s recent departure for his country estate isnot unconnected with the disagreementamongthe governing author- ities. The Minister of War declared that nothing could be expected from this action of Caprivi. A telegram was received from Rome at the Imperial Chaneelior’s office on Saturday saying that. the Pope was not well and that Dr. Cecarri had been called in ser- eraltimes. It appears that His Holiness is suffering from physical and mental prostra- tion. Itis belleved here that his iilness is more serious than stated in the dispatch, THE Le RIDE.

He reached England fifty-one hours from Berlin, but when he arrivedat Filorisdorf he had been onthe road seventy-three hours and six minutes, one hour and thirty-three minutes longer than Oount Starhemberg. Lieut. Reitzensteiy wag the first arrival of the third group of German starters. His horse fell exhausted a few paces beyond the goal. CARNEGIE SCORED. SHARP PRES§S COMMENT DRAWN OUT BY THE GIFT TO AYR, LonpDoN, Oct. 6.—The Chronicle in an article this morning in regard to Mr. Andrew Car- negie’s gift to Ayr, asks why Ayr does not provide its own library instead ol! depending on millionaires. Carnegie would be better employed in bestowing his surplus wealth on his American employes. It requires plenty of confidence on the part of the man who passively consented to the bloodshed at Homestead to pose as a benefactor of Scot- land and a eulogist of her greatest poet. UGANDA MISSIONS. PaRts,Oct. 6.—The Board of French- African Missions geste SE letter from Bishop Hirth, heaG of the ch Cetholic Missions in Uganda.

He says the King abjured the faith and was again placed upon his throne. Hethen joinedin the persecu- tions of the Catholics, but allowed Princess Sara torejointhem. The Catholics recently Started out of the district, taking with them 300 women, Before they had proceeded far the caravan was attacked and captured by Protestants, who abducted all the women. An attempt was made to recapture them, but only a few were recovered. STORM IN ITALY.

WASHINGTON, D. ©., Oct. 6.—The Marine Hospital Bureau has caused to be translated and published an article from medica! journal of Constantinople the routes by which the cholera spredd over Asia and Europe. The article states that the Eastern and Southern part of the Trans- Caucasus were the focus of the epidemic, and in @ period a little more than two months, or — from June 20 to Aug. 24, there were about 30, / 000 choleraic deaths inthe Caucasus out of a population of about 5,000,000, or one death in about 200 of the inhabitants. leading bing The Caucasus has been one of the thost vir- ulent foci ever known in a cholera ept- demic, As tothe history of the progress of the disease the article states: ‘‘If we cast a glance over the progress of the epidemic we will see that it started from Djellabad, a city in Afghanistan, situated between Peshawur ‘and Cabul, about the month of December, 1891, that it slowly traversed the mountains ous territory separating Cabul from Herat, which latter place it reached in March, 1892; that it gained Meched In the Khorassan about May 27, from four to. five months after leaving Djeliabad, but. from Meched it reached the Trans-Caspian Ralil- way about June 20, appearing at the stations of Askalabad and Ousormada on the Caspian Sea. it was, therefore, six months and more in traveling from Af han- istan to the Caspian Sea, Sur’ there en- countered other railways and routes of navi- gationand traveled to St, Petersburg, in Northern Russia, and Hamburg, In North- western Germany, inless than two months, The rapes of its progress was therefore quadrupled during the second stage of its line Of travel.

Mr. Peck and bis stenographer were present with Mr. Meegan, their counsel, Assistant District Attorney Coben appeared for the prosecution, Mr. Meegan said the idictment found was a fraud upon the courts and bad been previously pre-. pared and in his opinion it did not specifical- ly state what public records Mr, Peck is charged with destroying. He said that pursuant to the provisions of the code under which these indictments were found, the prosecution must show that there was an unlawful removal and de- struction of public records; that they were public records; that they should bive been flled posited; and that such or records had been filed by authority of law. The in- dictment was found on the alleged destruc- tion of certain public records, books, papers and documents, but no specific c is made of the destruction of the ciréela and answers.

Some time after midnight last night Mr. J. G. Boyd, whe is comnected with the Mun!- cipal Electric Light & Power Co. of this city, but who lives in the suburban town of Mapie- woot, awoke thirsty and arose to get a drink. Itaas a beautitul moonlight night, and Mr. Boyd stepped to his window and looked out at the sylvan scene in front of his residence, He saw,tohis surprise, that HWaplewood answered perfectly the descrip- tion of Ceylon’s isle given inan old hynm, where ‘‘eyery prospect pleases, and only man is vile.’’ Two burglars were preparing to burgle the tesidence of Mr. Boyd’s neighbor, Mr. A. B. One of the burglars was bending over, leap-frog fashion, ang the second was standing on the ‘‘back’’ made by the first, tryingto open Mr. Car- penter’s front parlor window. Mr. Boyd stepped back and got his pistol. Unfortunate- ly the biinds of his windows were closed, and he would bave to open them to get a shot at the strange looking combination of legs and arms under Mr. (arpenter*’s window. He did so, and with the betraying noise the legs andarms sud- Genly took filght, with one shot from Mr. Boya’s pisto: chasing them. The burglarious leap-froggers Gisa ppenred around the corner of the house they were trying toenter. Mr. Boyd called with aloud voice tohis neigh- hor, Mr. Carpenter, and then wentte bed and asieep again. / His own residen¢e #s-not guite finished yet, the iower floor, Open, was stored with furni- ture, his family are in the East and Mr. Boyd was sleeping thore to prevent the furniture from being stolen. Several hours after the Carpenterjepisode he was awakened by some one fumbilng at his door. He thought day had broket, and that it was the painter come to work oij the house, so he calied out: “fT say, Reyburn, why don’t you make a little morejnolse?’’ in answpr to this sarcastic query there Caine a shidden rush of feet through the empty houke, tlhe sounds disappearing in the Cistante. |Air. Boyd again jumped out of bed, realizing that bis burglars were still at work, fondied his trusty pistol and went out to look fdrthe robbers. No traceof them couid be found. Once mone Mr. Boyd slept—this time until morming. When he dressed and passed down Stairs he found that tie burglars had got even with him for his troublesome waefu!- nes3 Curing the night. Five buckets of fresh paint of different colors had been emptied over the wa!tls and e@eiling of the unfinished Boyd hone. Into ail the keyholes fn the place varnish had been poured, compietely| clogging them. A number of loeks not yetfitted tothe doors were thrown into the sink. Allthese things angered Mr. Boyd, and-he came into town and reported the caseto|the police. He states that he will keep Virilinhis unfinisned but elaborately painted and varnished residence from now if a burglar shows wp there avainit is woe to the burglar. The same vang bas been operating in \aplewood for some tline past, it Is believed. Lou Ling’s Whereabouts Knowz. The morning papers published a story this morning to the effect that a Chinaman named Lou Ling has been spirited away and | probably murdered by Highbinders. Accord- ing to the story Ling, who has been Amer- fcaunizeid by the Y. M. c. A., acaingt the opium gambiers of Chinatown and consequence incurred their enmity. police deny that they are looking for him and agiso deny thesensational statements about tie raids and arrests made on information fuinisted by him. Joe Sang did not fracture Ling’s skull or strike him at all, but did chase bim with a piece of gas pipe. Lou Ling told sergt. Boyd last Sunday that he was goingtoChicago. If he does not re- turn by next Tuesday the disturbing of the peace case against Joe Sang will be dis- missed, asheisthe principal witness in it. The case of carrying concealed weapons will be prosecuted, however. —e Yesterday’s Fake. Capt.

Supt. Singleton Charged With Not Ex- amining Work, the Bills for Which He Was to Certify To—Careful Review ©fthe School Board’s Finances—Rec- ommendations of the Committee. -- The report of the Examining Committee of the School Board, which was appointed on Aug. 9 last by President Bartholdt, has been ‘prepared, and will be submitted to the board atits next meeting. The committee was composed of Morris J. Lipman, Chairman; Capt. Hequembourg and Jack P. Richardson. They began tbeir labors of examining the books and accounts of the board on Sept. 15. *Thetotalcashon hand July 1, 1891, Since then there received $1,560,180.63. The total ex- penditures ‘of the board Guring the year amounted to $1,630,656.57, leaving a total cash on hand July 1, 1892, of $241,427.80, This balance stands tothe credit of the general fund, permanent fund and the building fund, and also to the new high school fund and some minor accounts. The receipts were $1,007,418.28S from taxes levied for school purposes; $109,114.36 from the State school fund and $278,711.45 from Sales of realestate of the board. Of the ex- penditures $777,225.60 was paid for teachers’ salaries, $206,020 was paid onthe cOntract of $344,990 for the new Board of Education building; $27 000 on the new School bullding; 6187 083.95 was forthe erection of other new schoo! Duila- ines, $122,417.76 for repairs and $20,819.15 to architects emplored for special work. mew Duildings, with a seating capacity ol 2,0 scholars, were erected during the year. The committee examined 2,163 vouchers with Dills attached and found them ali properly @udited and entcred in the books. BILLS IMPROPERLY MADE OUT. The old evil of bills not being made out properly by parties havins claims against the Board stiil exists and the committee recommen:'s that’ hereafter all these bills shouid be rejected by the auditing oilicer uniess they specify the price of eachanad every article charged for. The committee @iso finds fault with the manner In which many of the bills were certified to, the cer- tificates not belingttilled out by the proper officer in many instances. This was the case With the superintendent of repairs,who failea to comp!y with the direction of the Building Committee. The party who exaim- inesand approves the bill should alsoin- spect the work done and see that it is all right. This has been neglected, and the committee recommends that the re- quirement in this respect hereafter be Strictly enforced. The Audiior should be given more time to approve bdills. Bilisnow gotrom the Audi- tortothe Building Committee whereas in the natural order of things they should coine irom the bullding Coinmittee tothe Auditor and thence tothe Auditing Comumit- tee. was was MR. PLAYER’S ACCOUNTS, The books and accotunts of Secretary Player were found to be properly kept and in excellent condition, Mr. Player in addition to being Secretary and Treasurer !isalso Secretary of the Ways and Means Committee and of the Lands and easing Committee. He has chargeof the Jeaseas. The booksof the Auditor were aiso foufid to be properly Kept. The rent rolls in his possession and also the accounts pertain- ing to them were correct. fhe systemin use In the supply depart- mentunder charge of Mr. William Bryan was founc to.be first-class in every respect anitcarried out carefully with great min- wtie of detall. Thetotal cash received for beoks sold by principals during the year was $31,904.51. In the office of H. Clay Sexton, bailiff of the board, matters were found to be satis- factorily conducted and not morethan $19 Was outstandingfor uncollectible rent bills. In the Superintendent of Construction and Repairs Department, \ir. B. R. Singleton’s office, a considerable improvement in the methods of the office over last year was moted,. NEW EPUILDINGS. The new buildings erected during the year were the Ames, fourrooms; LBryan Hill, six rooms; Jefferson Kindergarten extension, two rooms; Adams, elght rooms, and Mar- quette, twelve rooms. ‘The contract price of the new high school is $59,945.20 and the building is to be completed by Sept. 4, 1893. The architect’s fees last year amounted to $20,819.15, which !s in excess of that of the previous vear, when the total amount paid Was $15,599.47. For the year ending June 80, 1890, $50,000 was appropriated for repairs, and $50,094.76 expended. In 1894 $70,000 was appropriated and $71,634.03 spent, and in the Iast year $55,000 was appropriated and $122,417.76 was expended. Incommentingon this the commiitee states thatin October, 1591, the Examining Committee callei the Stiperin- tendent of Repairs, Mr. Singleton, before it and asked why so uch money had been spent in repairs for that year. He said that the buildings had been so well repaired that he saw no reason why $1,009 per month, or $8,000 for the balance ofthe year, should not cover all the expenses which would be incurred for repairs. ‘‘As the figures show. that $67,417.75 was ex- pended for repairs subsequent to that time auring the remainder of the fiscal year, the echool buildings must have been in excep- tionally good condition of repair on the 30th The matter of these excessive expenditures above the amounts originally appropriated is one with which your honorable body is entirely competent to deal, and we donot undertake to advise you in the premises.’’ There has also been a large increase in the repair force of the Building Department. In June, 1892, the total salaries amounted to $3,559.45 per month—whereas six months prior to that the pay-roll was only $1,978.35. The committee reccommendsthat at the conimencement of each fiscal year the board advertise for bids for:all-materials expected to be used in repairs during the year. A great saving could thus be effected. The material thus ordered could be delivered as it was required. The com- mittee visited the Safe Deposit Co, and found there all the bonds ofthe officers, Olicies of insurance and the important ocuments belonging to the board. The committee finally in the report thank the Officers of the board for the assistance oh them in making and preparing the re- port. BRO. HARDESTY. He Saw No Special Reasons Why He Should Coniribute.

Cattle—The cattle market this morning was ina better condition than it has been any time this week. Values were quoted stronger, In the native division 15 head of extra prime steers were disposed of at $5.55 per 100 lbs. These cattle were Polled Angus and the best that have been seen at this apaenes for months. They were the property of Maj. J. Hepvlerof Vermont, Mo. The price paid for Ste steers fully demonstrates the fact that choice cattle when offered at this market wiil bring even more money than quotations would indicate. A few other bunches of good cattle were also on sale, but the bulk, as it has beeninthe past, could not be graded good quality.

The request for all grades is good and active, but there isa very strong demand for choice hogs of good weight. The hogs sold to-day were not heavy, the representative sales will not show one lot where the hogs averaged 100 hs. A local packing house has recently opened ferthe season and has aiready a representative at this market. The daily capacity of this house is 3,000 hogs, and its re-entrance into this market will tend to greatly stimulate the trade.

The door was once more opened bya lady apparently 20 years of age, who, after some hesitation, admitted that the doc. tor had had a difficulty with some gentleman, but that she was in the rear of the Dullding and knew none of the particu- lars. The employes of the drugstore on the corner adjoining the doctor’s house, and the next-door neighbors, had- heard of the difficulty, but refused to give any information relative to the personal en- counter between the Laclede avenue special- ist and the mysterious stranger. A COLORED MAN’S STRANGE &TORY, A negro, giving his name as Andy Bunn, was engaged in shoveling coal in the cellar of the house next door, and was within five feet of the little front porch where the combat was had.

Acall was made at his office, No. 2132 Clark avenue, at 7 o’clock iast night, but he had ieft word that he would not return again, although the gas was burning brightly inthe front office. Acall was made at his residence an hour later, and the front parlor was lighted up and some one was rendering one of Bethoven’s selections on a plano when the reporter rang the bell. The music ceased and the performer, after peering through the blinds at the reporter, turned out the lights andit was quiet Without and dark within.

She completing her deferred purchases for the trousseau, shame-faced and shy, while he is ineffably bored and jealous of the ribbons and laces which are robbing him of so much of her thought and attention. At the Exposition they are strolling arm in arm through the naves, both of them inter- ested perhaps in the housekeeping outfits. In the Art Gallery they aresomewhat interested othe pictures, but in the Music Hall they are undoubtedly interested in each other, as they sit close to each other and let the music serve as an accompaniment to their thoughts and whispers. To-day they are all out at the fair, the country brides and grooms inspecting the horses and cows and calves and poultry, and dairy productsand jellies and pickles and preserves, for these are the things they will soon be interested in in their own snug country bomes.

After hearing all the affidavits produced before them yesterday afternoon the State Board of Health refused to take any action ~ against the Newland College of Midwifery. Dr. L. G. Tandy had affidavits of three of the pupils of the institute to the effect that no examinations were required to obtain a diploma. Dr. Newland had a number of counter affidavits in which these statements were denied, The board considered the evidence ine sufficient and so dismissed the charges with- out prejudice to the institution, In regard to the statement made by Dr. Newland that the charges against the instil. tution were due to the fact that Dr. Tandy wasa nephew of Dr. Atkinson, Secretary of the State Board of Health, which statement Dr. Atkinson branded as a lie, Dr. Newland told him he madeit on the authority of Dr. Mack, the personal friend of Dr. Tandy, who was Mack’s authority. When Dr. Tandy told Dr.Newland he would ‘*gsmash his face,’’ the latter waved him off with the remark that he wanted to have nothing to do with him.

Wasnrk6Toy, Oct. 6.—The Bureau of Naval Intelligence has been for some months pre- paring a |b ok soon to be issued to the service which will be invaluable both tothe mer- chant m {n Ineand the navies of the world, The book will state in detail the localities of coaling istations of different governments, ship yards, repair stations and docks, the coa ab i city of the stations, quality of coal and other matters relatingtothe coal sup- ply of vefsels boundon long voyages. The book will show conclusively that in this respect the United states is far worse off than any othef country pretending to bea naval power, possessing as it does only three foreig n coaling stations, namely in La Pas Mexico: samoa and Honolt iu. Great HMritain has important stations In all her possessions, in many places where coal can be landed from Eng and for the use of her vessels of war as well as her merchant marine. | All of her stations are strongly fortified and garrisoned, asshe appreciates the fact that should her coal supply be seized in war timesa most serious blow would be dealt herinavy and commerce. In such case it would be impossible for her to get coalelse- whe re as all nations would declare it contra- bandandlrefuse tosupply belilgerent vessels. Jt will-beiremembered that during the chase of the Chillan ship, Itata, by the Charles- ton, Mewsico decitnéd to ailow the warship Esmeralda, which was @eting as the Itata’s consort, to coel in that country, and the ls- meraida ¢onseguently had to remain in Mex- ican waters uniilafter the Itata was surren- dered to/the Charleston in Chili. The book will further show that should the United States bertome involved in war with a foreign power chee re would practicatly be no foreign ports outside of her three stations, ail of which aréon the Pacific Ocean, where she could hope to get coal. Some years ago a tract of land was purchased from Venezuela anda siijail lot of coal was landed there, but it was soon stolen by the natives, and no fur- ther eifort was made to land coal there. ‘MIS80U: RI MATTERS.

How od elderly men and women we see who plainly show they are ‘‘going down the hill.’’ The trembling hand, the uncer- tain step, the lack of brightness in the eye the shrunken feature-, al! indicate that life is not at high tide, that the strength and vital forces are not what they once were, and, in fact, that they are go!ng down the hill. This, of course, is to be expected, for when one reaches later years physical troubles are sure to come, but how many elderly people we see are healthy, happy and comparatively vigorous. They aiways seem cheerful, bright, contented. Why should not all be equally fortunate? It cer- tainly is possible. Every elderly man @nd woman needs to gently assist nature, ail the while needs to take some pure stimu- lant regularly. Every doctor in the land admits this, and its common sense must be manitest to all. It should not be under.- stood, however, that any ordinary stimu- lant would be recommended. It must be something pure, powerful, health-giving and strength-imparting. Such a stimulant | can be found only in Dufty’s Pure Malt Whiskey. Itis the only modicinet whiskey inthe market. Its wonderful popularity is due entirely to its power and what it has accomplished. health, and may reasonably expect to pro- long the life, Do not be induced, however, to try any infertor article or any which the druggist or grocer may seek to put in its place. There is nothing which can accom- plish the same object. —_ , —_ —_ SOCIETY GOSSIP. Mrs. Basil Duke, visiting her son at 2117 Olive street.

New York, Oct. 6.—Tom O’Rourke, Man- , ; ager of George Dixon, saysthat the colored champion will fight Billy Flimmer of Eng- land. The conditions under which Dixon will agree to meet the Englishman are that the men shall weigh in at 112 pounds at 8 o’ clock in the afternoon of the fight; the fight to be for the bantam weight championship, a stake of $10,000a side and a purse of $7,500. Plimmer says that if Dixon means business he will have to weigh 112 pounds at the ring- side. Plimmer says that O’Roarke stated two days ago that Dixon could fight as well at 122 pounds as he could at 118. If he will agree to these conditions I will agree to make the match for $10,000. GODDARD AFTER CORBETT. It is the intention of the Barrier champion, Joe Goddard, to bring about a meeting with Jim Corbett or get the championship by de- fault. It will be just a month next Monday since Billy Madden, the Australlan’s mane ager, deposited $1,000 as a forfeit with a sporting paper here to bind a match with the champion for $10,000 a side and the best purse offered, to Oct. ll. Unless the Californian consents to arrange afixht on the above mentioned conditions Goddard will claim the championship and stand ready to defend the title against all comers. ‘According to all rules,’’ said Madden, “‘a champion must be ready to de- fend his title when there isa necessity for that sort of thing. Goddard is the only man to challenge Corbett who has put upa sub- stuntial forfeit, and he demands that Corbett must pay some attention to his proposition or relinquish his hold on the championship.’’ THE PUGILISTIC STARS. John L. Sullivan is not an actor, ifthe opinion of New Yorkers can be relied upon. The ex-champion made his metropolitan ce- but at the Columbia Theater last Monday evening. The house was crowded to the ceiling, and several hundred of John’s ad- mirers were turned away from the gallery and told to call earlier some other night. John surprised the people who had come prepared to witness .a repetition of the awkwardness and enervating effects of booze he was wont to exhibit in ‘‘Honest Hearts and Willing Hands.’’ His whipping has made anew man ofhim. He 1is not un- graceful and possesses no little histronic tal- ent. Itis needless tosay he was enthusias- Mil ton cane Right Corbett made his debut as a star at Elizabeth, N.J. The audience Was incredulous and to Jook upon the whole matter as a joke, but Jim satled in seriously and intelligently, and soon got the nudience interested. Strange to say, his part is not funny but very serious and pathetic. Jim madea decided hit. Manager Brady, who plays the part of Gentleman Jim’s father, showed himself no slouch, but Prof. Jobn Donaldson, who took Jim Daly’s is said ‘‘to be full of prunes,’’ but then the professor has had no time to rehearse. McAllister’s setis. notin it with the prize- ring when it comes to furnishing first-class histrionic talent. YOUNG MITCHELL AND ALECK GREGGAINS. Young Mitchell has created quite a stir in pugilistic circles all over the country by challenging Aleck Greggains to fight in any of the pugilistic clubs at San Francisco. Mitchell retired from the ring shortly after his fight with Reddy Gallagher, and just about the time that Greggains was coming to the front. He says it was his intention never toenterthe ring again, but that Greggains has abused him so often that he has finally decided to challenge him. The match would no doubt create lively interest in Se coe circles all over America, especially, however, on the coast, and it would be a great drawing ecard for the clubthat could getit. It is not a certainty, however, for Mitchell has fixed the weight at the middle weight iimit, 154 pounds, and Gregyains would probably find itimpossible to reduce himself tothat. If, however, he can fight at that welght the match will be easily made, for alithe local clubs would bid for it, says a San Francisco exchange. Mitchell has posted a forfeit for a $5,000 side bet. PETER MAHER’S CHALLENGE. Dave Holland, backer of Peter Maher, has posted $100 forfeit in New York and issued the following challenge.on behalf of the Irish thampion: ‘‘Having assumed the management of Peter Maher, the champion of Ireland, I will match him to fight Joe Goddard, the cham. pion of Austrailia; Ed Smith of Denver, Colo., orany other heavywelght in America for $1,000 a side, Police Gazette rules to govern ana the contest to be inthe athletic club offering the largest purse.’’ Goddard, the Australian champion, re- cently offered to fight any man in the coun- try, and as he has no prospects of a match, this should be a good opportunity to arrange one. seemed LOCAL PUGILISTIC GOSSIP. The much-talked of contest between Mike Mooney and Harry Sharp has come toa point of issue atlast. The latter has posted his forfeit of $100 to bind a contest with Mooney on the original proposition as published re- cently, which was to the effect that he, Mooney, would forfeit $250 if he did not knock out Sharp in five rounds with 2-ounce gloves in a 16-foot ring. Mooney stated yesterday that he had been incorrectly reported in this respect. ‘‘I never authorized any such a challenge as that,’’ said Mike, ‘*butI do belleve,’’ said he, ‘‘thatI can put Sharp outin ten rounds, J told Sharp this on the street Monday, and at the same time. informed him that J] was not responsible for the statement that [could put him outin five rounds.’’ Now Sharp says that Mooney did not goon record in this manner inthe conversation they had Monday. ‘‘I met Mike Monday,’’ said Sharp, ‘*and asked him what truth there was in the statement that he was anxious to demonstrate his ability to put me outinfive rounds. He admitted that he had made the talk and stood willing to stand by it. I will take oath tothat effect. I am not looking for newspaper notoriety,’’ said Sharp, ‘‘butaslong as I bave been dragged into this matter 1 donot want tobe putinan unpleasant :ight before the public. All I de- sire to say is that have ac: cepted Mooney’s roposition, which it must be remembered he admitted making to me, and have posted my forfeit to dind a match with him on his published terms. Asthe matter now stands it is purelya question of veracity between Mooney and Sharp. Mooney’s proposition appeared in an afternoon paper and Sharp meeting him afterwards says he agreed to stand by what he was quoted as saying. Sharp then posted his forfeitto bind the match. Mooney has since discredited the newspaper story and says he did not acknowledge the credibility of Sharp. : Sharp Is willing to face Mr. Mooney for five rounds. Now will the professor accept? AMERICAN GLOVE CONTEST RULES. The wide difference of opinion regarding the interpretation of the Marquis of Queens- -berry rules has led Prof. John Duffy, the referee of the Sullivan-Corbett fight, to put on paper bis ideas of the rules that should govern a glove contest. He strongly opposes all such practices as ‘‘shouldering,’’ ‘‘el- bowing,’’ ‘‘clinching,’’ and in fact all the different tactics of Seng. Prof. Duffy’s long experience eminently fits him for the task. His coce, which hecalls the ‘‘American Glove Contest Rules,’’ are as follows: 1. The contestis to be a fair, stand-up boxing Dg, OF as nearly ih inthe ri SY ais Att ys i ' that size as possible; the ropes and stakes in the be but little doubt that this player will be to be ded. ; ; - 2. The Bona to be of three minutes’ duration, shoulder- g’’ or ‘*back-heeli tant f the re! to caution eg ea forasecond offense suc testant liabie to disqualification. sistent F pani **shouldering’’ or *‘elbowing shal ed f l be deem oul fighting, just as ‘‘heeling’’ or Sy ye « ° 4. Itshall be deemed a ‘‘foul’’ if one contestant strikes another below the belt or while the latter isdown. Amanisto be considered down when he has one knee on the floor or is lying on the ropes with his feet off the floor. It shall be optional with the referee to disqualify a boxer for the first or second violation of this rule. . When a man is down his opponent shall not be allowed to stand over him, but must step back at least six feet, the referee to measure the distance. Ten seconds shall be allowed a fallen boxer to re- gain his feet and it shall be the duty of the referee to count off the aforesaid ten seconds aloud. Should safa boxer fail to rise at the expiration of a seconds his opponent shall be declared the winner. 6. No tampering withthe gloves shall be per- mitted and the referee shall examine them on the hands of the contestants before the contest begins to satisfy himself thatthe padding has not been comes back from the knuckles. Should a glove urst or come off it shall be replaced to tne referee’s satisfaction, A contestant shall not be allowed to wear shoes with spikes. 7. Theseconds or handlers shall dono coaching while the contest isin progress, norshall they be permitted to throw water on their principal or apply any restoratives until the round isended. Nor shal the seconds be allowed in the ring excepting Guring the minute’s rest between the rounds. 8. A contestant shall not be allowed to fall to avoid peenmens. The referee shall caution himfor a rstoffense against this rule and may disqualify such contestant for a second offense. 9. The pivot blow shall be deemed a foul. The chief points in the rules are that they effectually bar in-fighting, and when a man is Knocked down afford him an opportunity to rise without having his adversary stand- ing over him. It will be remembered in the late Hall-Pritchard fight Hall, though the better man, came nearly being counted out, Decause when Knocked down by a blow that did him little harm Pritchard stood over him and prevented him from getting up. Corbett, McCaffrey, Wm. E. Harding of the Police Gazette and Warren Lewis have pro- nounced the rules perfect, but Sullivan, Billy Madden, Gus Tuttle and P. J. Donahue ob- jJecttothem, as they give the short range fighter little chance. JACK SKELLY’S HARD LUCK. Thecourse of true love never did run smooth as Lightweight Jack Skelly has found by bitter experience. When George Dixon knocked his visions of a dove-cote for his Brooklyn lassie into smithereens he kept a stout heart, and looked forward to his home benefit with much confidence.

Jack’s hopes of financial recuperation were rudely dashed to earth, for his benefit yielded what is known in theatrical parlance as a ‘‘frost. As many as 200 people were present, and Jack is out nearly $500 by the affair. e PUGILISTIC POINTERS.
