MILWAUKEE, Wis., Oct. 29.—When the sun Came up out of Lake Michigan this morning heshed no light upon the southeastern por- _ ionof Milwaukee. There was a brighter ~~ ‘ight there than he could furnish and it had Pak &there for ten long hours ana it. will be ' “Shere stillwhen Old Sol has done a day’s -) | Work and gone to rest.

It is now entirely under control, but ‘ the ruins in places are burning flercely, and , &t will be several days before the last spark eee. he fire is extinguished. When the fire © Out in the store of the oil company the brity of the engines of the fire depart- nt were at work in other parts of the city— there being atthe time no less than three separate fres burning in different parts of the city. These fires were comparatively in- significant in themselves, but the part they played in the fiery tragedy which has deso- lated so large a portion of the city was highly important. The en- gines were delayed so long’ by them that it was fully twenty minutes after the first oil barre] had exploded that the first engine came rattling up tothe front of the East Water street fire and it was forty-five minutes before the fire was confronted by a - force thought to be sufficiently large to hold it _in check, to say nothing of subduing it.

This was frolic for the flames and they roared through the large four-story building with a vigor that defied ali efforts to check or control them. Close behind the store of Dahmeir & Uo. and al- most adjoining it in the rear stood the five- story structure occupied by Budd & Kipp, up- holsterers. The hungry flames reached out for this handsome bufiding as they extended fromthe rear of Dahmeir’s, and catching first a huge pile of exceisior in the alley, they had the building in their grasp and, fanneu as they were by the breeze from the south- west, which was blowingat the rate of forty miles an hour, it was buta few minutes be- fore the store was a mass of flames from cel- lar to roof. Just five minutes more and Jacob Wellauer’s grocery store on the east pide of the bay, direct)y opposite Budd & Kipp, was in flames, It seemed as'if a mountain of fire rolled across the sky. One * 4mstant not a building on the east side of Broadway was in flames and the next the rolling waves offire swept across the street and descended on the building opposite. Four thousand streams of water could not stay such a conflagration in its march of de- ‘struction toward the lake. The wallsof the _. three-story brick buildings on Broadway, -- formerly occupied by the Cracker Trust, but then vacant, began to totter and warning voices urged the crowd back just in time. The whole front of the building pitched into ‘the street. A few minutes later the sides fell outward witha crash. HOMES SWEPT AWAY. The people who reside in that portion of the town are of the poorer class. There are no fine residences there and most of the bulidings were small one-story and, here nd there, two-story frame houses. They ' were meat for, the flames, which rushed toward them with a velocity which deft them time to escape with nothing put their lives and what they had on their Packs.

Dozens of frame buildings, along Milwaukee and Jefferson streets, between Detroit and Chicago as well as on Buffalo and Chicago Streets, were licked up as if they had been outlines of paper. Allthese buildings were consumed within half an hour of the time when the flames leaped uvver Broadway, BURNING CARS. Suddenly the wind turned around. Where it was northeast when the fire alarm rang it was now almost due south, cutting out a broad avenue of destruction toward the Mil- waukee River and Lake Michigan. In its path lay the big freight sheds and yards of the Chicago & Northwestern road, together with the round-house and its valuable con- tents of rolling stock. The end of the freight shed on the corner of Chicago and Jefferson streets was the first to ignite, and the flames s00n spread all over the yards, burning freight cars and everything before it.

Streams were from every direction, but all in vain; the,.de- vouring Ln ew roared madly on, and once having ned a foothold in the. building it was a eeeer of hardl reduced to ashes, But with the Fernek’s building the backbone of the fire was broken and the lone wall standing grimly at East Water; street marks the point where the flames were stayed. Th? scenes alohg Buffalo street when the fire was apt beginning to sweep along that thorou re were exciting in the extreme. The residents came rushing from their houses to gaze upon the mountains of flame which was rolling down upon them, many of them not seeming to think for an instant that the fire would come near them. They had in many instances scarcely time to change their mindson the subject. With the speed of a race horse the flames came on and the man who had thought his house was gafe would catch a glimpse of it wrapped in flames as he fled around the nearest corner without even having time to go into the house fora single article, NARROW ESCAPES. In one place an old man was seen desper- ately tugging at some furniture, trying to get it through the front door. A passing fireman hurried to his assistance and by the time he had reached the doorway the street behind him was filled with fire and both men narrowly escaped through the rear door. In some plates people were more fortunate— thatis, they managed to have their house- hold goods consumed upon the sidewalk or in the gutter instead of in the house. They had managed to get it outside only to be forced to drop it and run for tbeir lives.

Soon the smell of burning petroleum filled the air and a volume of explosions shook the earth. The low brick freight house stayed the onward sweep of the flame, but only for a moment. ‘Through the square windows the red glare could be seen, and an instant latera shower of burning cinders flowed away toward the lake, covering a thousand freight cars filled with merchan- dise. Onanc onthatterrible and resistiess wave of fire was sweeping, consuming every- thing in its path over to Jackson street from Broadway. The fire was now following the south wind along Broadway, down Jefferson, along Mil- waukee street. Along Broadway it swept to the Weisel & Vilter Manufacturing Co.’s plant at Chicago street and to No. 10 Engine House on Broadway. When it reached the Weisel & Vilter plant the department had prepared an attempt tocut itoff with dynamite. Three kegs were exploded in the building, having been stored there to await the coming of the flames. Aseach went off in close succession thecry went up from the thousands who blocked the streets for a radius of a mile that the gas-works had exploded. But the plant was almost entirely suved. Seeing that the fire must surely reach them the men rapidly forced the air into the tanks, diluting the gas so that it was weakened beyond the point of possible explosion. Then they let it out sufficiently to sink the tanks below the level and fled fortheir lives. As a result of this good management Milwaukee will have its usual gas supply within a day ortwo. The Bethel Home, near the gas-works, caught fire soon after. Wirth & Hammel’s livery stable on Broadway, containing hundreds of horses, was in the path of the flaming cy- clone. Some horses were safely taken away, while a number were stampeded. The Laura Catlin Kindergarten also succumbed, despite the dynamite. Around on Erte street the Toepfer Iron foundries and the Riedeberg Vinegar Works were also Gestroyed together with innumera- ble small builaings, saloons and residences. Hansen’s malt house, within a few rods of the border of Lake Michigan, with an adjoin- elevator, after smoking from the upper win- dows, suddenly burst into flames and from the lower windows to the top of the high ven- tilating house it wasallablaze. Asa howl- ing Dlast of wind struck it, the flames gg) clear across the street and, in an instant, the mait-house proper, with its tall tower, broke out in spots of filckering fire. The elevator was s0 strongly built that it main- tained its form long after the hot- test perlod was passed and from the lower floors the grain poured into the street like the down-pour of Niagara. Then from the windows of the large malt-house ‘and from the eaves came jets of re green flame—gas from the heated malt. It was not long before the entire building was ablaze and the roar was tremendous. Alarge ven- tilating wheel in the face of the upper story was burning and whirling away like a huge St. Catherine’s wheel. ‘The heat was intense withina block of the malt-house and the smaller house was thoroughly aflame; it was a close call forthe retort house of the gas company; only the most vigorous work of the saloon men with a hydrant hose and buckets of water saved the wooden saloon which ad- joins the retort house. ALONG THE SOUTH LINE. Now having watched the march of the flames to the north and east, let us see them sweep a red path to the south and east. Across the way from Bub & Kipp’s was the store Of Roundy, Peckham &Co. It caught fire before the department was able to pre- ventit. Nextto Roundy, Peckham & Co’s. on Buffalo street was a store belonging to the Pfister estate and occupied by H. Scheftels & Co., and west of this was the warehouse of the National Distilling Co. All three caught fire almost simultaneously and the alcohol stored up in ‘the National Distiling Co’s, warehouse was responsible for the destruc- tion of almost the entire block on East Water street south of Buffalo street. The burning alcohol ran over intothe basement under the large block occupied by Leiderstorf, setting it all afire. This building wasfour stories high. It looked solid and. indestructible. fhe flames gradually workedtheirwayup. After awhile they came leaping outof the roof. Then the corner wails fell. They tottered for a while asif trying to balance them- Selves, then they bent overand went down, covering the whole street from corner to cor- ner with splintered stone and brick. Fortu- nately the firemen withdrew in time, noone being hurt. From the Leiderstorf building the fire spread buildings south of it. Bros., the Mann Brewing Co., DeLorme & Quentin’s soap factory caught fire, one after another. There was a large vacant lot at the corner of Buffalo street and Broadway, n } of the fire engine house, but that did not save it. Southof the engine house, cov g al- most the entire south half of the block, was Riedeberg’s vinegar factory and warehouses, The plant could safely be valued at $500,000, From this factory the flames leaped across Milwaukee street to the Hansen Bros.’ malt elevator. The abandoned Johnston B r nen factories on : useless things. One little tow-headed tot fied frantically along Buflalo street directly in advance of the approaching fire, which was going twenty feetto her one. Clasped tightly within hertiny fist she held a man’s silk hat. a KNOXVILLE, Tenn., Oct, 29.—C. M. Baker, District Passenger Agent ofthe Kansas City, Fort Scott & Memphis Rallroac, was shot and killed by his son, Francis, aged 18, at his home in the suburban town of Lonsdale, last night. Tne boy gave himself up to the police and said his father was beating him over the head witha heavy stick. He got hold ofthe shotgun forthe purpose of frightening his father, who was drinking, and shot him un- intentionally. He also stated his father was in the habit of abusing the family when drunk.

Se LisBon, Oct. 29.—Wrapped in an !Impene- trable fog and during.a-heavy gale the ' British steamer Roumania went ashore =, Wednesday at the mouth of the Aralho River, on the Portuguese Coast. Of the 122 persons on board but nine were saved. : The Roumania was an iron screw steam: ship of 3,387 tons, belonging tothe Anchor Line and plying between Liverpool and Bombay. She sailed from Liverpool for . Bombay on Oct. 22. Peniche, near where the Roumania was wrecked, is « fortified town of Portugal, om the Atlantic Ocean, about fifty miles north of the mouth of the Tague. The Roumania experienced heavy weather from eariy on Monday morning. On Tuesday she ran into a furious storm. After a few hours of the first clear sailing she tiad had, the Roumania ran into a thick fog on Wednesday, in about 62 deg., north iatitude. She proceeded at half speed and, it was sup- posed, wellout from the coast. A violent storm came on after several hours in the fog. When the storm struck her, the Roumanta was but a few miles from shore. The ship made but Mttle progress and the Captain was unable to keep her bow to the wind. She wentonthe rdcks almost without warning, for up to the lastfew minutes the ship’s officers did not realize their peril. Heavy seas broke over the ship’s decks, and many of the passengers who ran on deck in a panic were swept overboard and drowned. Every boat that put out from the ship’s side was capsized and the occupants drowned. Every succeeding wave that swept over the ship carried away its quota of victims. Wave after wave had broken over the Roumania, smashing her deck -houses and ventilators, carrying away her smokestack and masts and sweeping many of the pas- sengers and seamen overboard. Those still left decided to wait until the storm abated further before attempting to get ashore. After an hour of suspense the seven men and two women who had remained on board lowered the last boat. The storm had sub- sided, and, although obliged toride through a heavy surf, they reached shore in safety. The two women were the only passengers saved. Capt. Young is reported to be among the lost. . The bodies of the victims of the wreck are : being washed ashore at Cape Carvelero. Most ofthe bodies arein night attire, show- ing that the unfortunates were aroused from sleep only to encounter death in the terrible storm. Theséea is still running heavily and it is impossible to approach the wreck, which lItes in a most dangerous situation and shows signs ofrapidly goingto pleces. The cargo and other wreckage fromthe vessel is float- ing about in the vicinity. Muchof it has been washed ashore and seized by the in- habitants of that region, some of whom are little better than pirates, and look wpon the wreck of a vessel on their shore as a godsend for their special benefit. Wrecks are not uncommon at Cape Carveiero, which projects into the Atlantic asa sortof trap for any vessel that is driven inshore while making for Lisbon or Gibral- tar. Thetréktment of the unfortunates who happen to be wrecked there is better now than it used to be, but the cargo is generally regarded as a prize for the man who gets it first and instances have been known of ran- som being demanded for the surrender of bodies. The Portuguese Government in the case of the Roumania has taken fairly prompt action, and the authorities have or- dered a force to the scene to protect the wreckage and prevent the despollment of the dead. Two daring wreckers who, notwithstand- ing the prevalence of fog and storm, ventured out into the angry waters to obtain some of he floating cargo, were drowned in hear- ee ofthe people on shore. Their piercing cries for help brought no aid, as others were afraid to venture their lives to save them, and the wreckers perished, victims to their own cupidity. The gunboat Zaire has started from Lisbon to the scene of the wreck, and will doubtless afford more effective protection to the property of the steamship company andtothe remaining cargo than any liand force could alone exert. Among the passengers were many British officers with their families returning to Indla from visits to England, and one of the pass- eners was Lady Johnson, wife of Sir Henry Johnson, and daughter of Thomas Dyson, Esq., of Bengal. A great difficulty in the way of getting an accurate report of the wreck is that the region isso tsolated from ordinary intercourse, even with Lisbon, and that none ofthe survivors speak Portuguese. A@l the information so far has been transmitted through Portuguese sources. A largs propor- tion of the crew were Lascars. Thereis no report that they failed io do the best possibie @uder thefcircumstances. A dispatch tiom the scene of the wreck Says that Capt. Young refused to leave the Roumania and perisiied with the vessel. He showeil extraordinary coolness during the efforts to save the passengers and was nobly seconded by the subordinate officers. Some ofthe crew behaved ina cowardly manner, but mostof them obeyed orders faithfully. The British officers on board gave precedence in allinstances to the women and children when it came to a question of. rescue. Many of the passengers were asleep when the striking of the vessel! gave notice of dan- gerand from their cabins without having time to dress, while during the excitement that followed there was no opportunity. The women and children were Kept under shelter until the torrents of water pouring over the vessel threatened to swamp the saloon. Then they were taken out ondeck and every effort was maleto preventthem from being washed overboard. Butthe tremend- ous seas, hotwithstanding, carried a nuin- ber of the Women an‘ little ones to death, while others perished tn the boats. THE proof of the candy ts in the eating.

At the meeting of the Building Committee | of the School Board yesterday afternoon and evening, many matters of interest came up for consideration and some “peculiar occurrences.. were developed. The new bids for the school desks were opened and were as foliows: United States School furniture Co.—Globe desk: Nos. 1 and 2, $2.75; 8 and 4, $2.65;5 and 6, $2.55; rear seats, $2.45; front desks, $2.60.

No. 2 Auto- matic—Nos. 1 and 2, $2.60; 3and4, $2.55; 5and 6, $2; rear seats and front aesks, $2 each. Maj. J. B. Merwinof the Merwin Publish- ing. Co. did not bid, but T. R. Burrage gave as his address 1120 Pine street, whichis the location of the Merwin establishment. But Burrage’s bid was an advance of lic over the bid submitted by Merwin at the first cpening, and this circumstance was much commented on. A. B. Markey, the agent of the United States School Supply Co., submitted bids for the Globe and Burlington desks, his bid on the first-named showing a cut of 15 cents below the bid pre- viously made. The Scarritt Furniture Co, presented bids fora desk made by the Min- neapolis Desk & School Supply Co., said to belong to the trust, Charles Marschultz, representing the St. Louts Iron Molders’ Union No. 10, submitted a communication from the Molders’ Union of Grand Rapids, Mich., asking the Boar. to refuse to patronize the Grand Rapids School Furniture company or any other concern affiliated with tne United States School Furniture Co., be- cause the firstnamed organization had de- clared against union labor. VOTE ON THE BIDS, The tug of warcame when the yote was taken on theletting. Mr. Robert Rutledge moved to accept the lowest bid, namely, for the Burlington desk. Messrs. Brady,Rutledge and Blair voted’ inthe affirmative and the Big Four, Messrs. Cudmore, Bus, Waitand Troll in the negative. Then Mr. Troll moved to give the contract to the Scarritt Co. Messrs. Troll, Rutledge and Blair voted the affirmative, and Messrs. Wait, Bus and Cudmore in the negative. Mr. Brady refused to vote, He said to-day that he was in favor of accepting the lowest bid, and when the committee re- fused to do it, he decided to Keep clear of all charges and leave itfor the board to solve the problem. The bids were then laid over for a week. In the midst of all the wrangling over the desks, Mr. Rutledge dropped g re- mark which contained init the essence ofa very serious charge. He arose and said that he had been informed on good authority that the repair painting work done during the past summer by Mr. Andrew F. Blong, repre. sentiny the firm of Jas.S. Dowling&Co. had not been done according to specifications, that where twocoats of paint had been called for only one had been given. The incident did not consume two minutes time, being referred on a motionof Mr. Busto Superin- tendént of Construction Singleton for a special report to be submitted next Friday.It was saidthat the work had not been inspected by Mr. J. McGuigan who was appointed to examine al! painting done at a salary of $5 per day, and that he had O. K.’d the bills without making an inspec- tion. The charge was made against all the schools painted by \r. Blong, namely, the Irving, the Banneker, the Madison and Madison Branch, the L’Over- ture, the Franklin and the Dumas, at an expense of at least ¢5,000. Mr. Rutledge was seen to-day and re- peated what he said at the meeting of the Committee. Healsosaid that he did not re- gard Mr. Singleton competent to make an ex- amination, and thought that Mr, Singleton would have to employ an expert to examine the work. In justice to Mr. Blong, who was present, it muy be said that he offered to submit his work to the inspection of any expert painter whom Mr. Rutledge might name. Mr. Rut- ledge replied thatin his private capacity he might accept the proposition. Mr. Rutledge was asked: , ‘*Is it not probabie that Mr. Singleton would cut off his official headif he madea report which confirmed your allegations?’’ **Not unlessa majority of the committee had an interestin the matter,’’ he replied. Mr. Bilong was very much dissatisfied be- cause Mr. Rutledge refused to disclose his sources of information. MR. SINGLETON COMPETENT. Mr. Singleton was seenand asked whether he deemed himself fitted to make an inspec- tion of the work done by Mr. bBlong. He vigorously maintained that he was fitted to judge in such matters long before Mr. Rutledge was born, and declared that he in- tended to accompany Mr. Blong to the schools and make anexpert examination. Ile said thatif only one coatof paint had been giventhe schoolsthe dirt and grimy shadow of the vid coat of paint beneath would show through. At any rate when the matter comes up for consideration again next Friday, there will be a very lively time, especially if Mr. Singleton and Mr. Blong report that the charges avainst Mr. Blong are groundless, andif Mr. tutliedge’s expert takesacontrary stand. It is said that the schools painted by Mr. Biong are mostly in the districts of which Messrs. Cudmore, Bus and Walt have charge, andin Mr. Biair’s district, which was cov- ered by Mr. Bus during Mr. Biair’s summer yacation. in A PLUMBER’S SNAP. Another matter which was disposed of quickly, but was very juicy, was an instruc- tion given to Mr. Stark, the board’s attorney, to see whether he could recover $175 from a plumber named Menke, Mr. Blair charged that Menke was” given the contract to move the closet of the Lincoln School, at stipulated price of $175, thatan itemized bill was sub- mitted, approved and paid, and that now it appeared that scarcely any work at all was done. Mr. Singleton said to-day tnat Menke undertook to move back the closet and fence twenty inches, and made all preparations forit, but was instructed by the surveyor that it should be moved only three inches on account of the linesand it wasonly moved that distance. But he was paid for moving it twenty inches. For bronchitis use Leslie’s Coughine, Price, 25c. ACCIDENTALLY KILLED. Bridge Foreman John G. Anssem Meets With a Fatal Accident. John G.

UPBRAI - — — Herbert Taussig Gets Angry Over the Union Depot Matter. ANIMATED DISCUSSION WITH THE CITY’S REPRESENTATIVE. AN He Tells President Burnet That the Depot Will Bs Built According to Present Plans, Despite ths City’s Protest—His .Threat—Naming New Streets and Changing the Names of Others. There was quitea lively interview yester- day afternoon in the office of the President of the Board of Public Improvements, the prin- cipals being President Burnet and Mr. Her- bert Taussig of the Union Depot & Terminal Railway Association. Mr. Taussig.iit appears had about come to the conclusion that his persuasive eloquence was being lost on the members of the board, so far as inducing that body to allow the Union Depot Co., to go on with the construc- tion of their new bullcing according to the present plans was concerned. He appeared before the board yesterday aft- ernoon and stated that his uncle, Dr.Taussig, the president of the company, couid not be present. He was there to represent them, and he answered the board that if the com- pany was permitted to gO ahead and erect their building according to the present plans there would be no com- plaints and no trouble would ensue. President Burnet tnformed him that even If the board did quietly acquiesce in sucha flagrant violation of the ordinance any citizen and tax-payer could take the matter up and see that it was_- enforced. He further informed Mr. Taussig thatas President of the board he would not vote to approve cf the present plans, and thatthe deput company must comply with the terms of the ordinance, The matter was finally left in the hands of the committee, and the board adjourned. Mr. Taussig then con- ceived the idea that a change of front might produce better results, so Walking into Mr. Burnet’s private office he informed hinrthat he did not care a continental what action the board took on the. plans. **I want you to understand that the depot building is going to be erected according to the present plans and not a stone will be changed from its present intended location, You are the one member of this board who has oo making all this fight and Iam in- formed that it is principally you the Depot Co. has to look out forin this matter.’’ Mr. Taussig then went on and informed Mr. Burnet that he wanted him to under- stand that the Union Depot and Terminal Railway companies were a power in local politics and as it was understood that Nir. Burnet had aspirations in a political line he had better have a care for his scalp, or it would be dangling soon fromthe beit of the great railroad doctor. This was like touch- ing a fuse toa rocket, and President Burnet was the rocket, He rose 6 feet above the Mr. Taussig and said: ‘‘Sir, I you to understand that you and the horde of political bums who have been threatening meif I opposed the present plansofthe Union Depot Building can goto thedevil. lam here, sir, as Presi- dent of the Board of Public Improvements to proteet the rights of the citizens of St. Louis and while lam herelam going to do it. [want vou furtherto understand thatI don’t care a fig forthe Union Depot Co, ora halfa fig ior either of the Taussigs.’’ At this point Mr. Taussig remembered something about bearding the lionin his den, and as the atmosphere was getting oppres- sive he rushed out of the office, leaving his overcoat behind him, Mr. Burnet when seen to-day and asked about the affair confirmed the statement as given above. ' ‘*] have been bothered considerably,’’ he added, ‘‘ever since this Union Depot matter came up by a score or more of ward politiclans who wished to Impress upon me the fact that I was doing myself no good by opposing those Union Depot people. I answered them all pretty much inthe same language I replied to Mr. Taussig. Taussig should have Known me better. We were classmates and are members of the same engineers’ club. I don’t know that any of the other members of the board were approached hy these same men, but the proba!ilities are that they were. Ithink he will find, however, that his bulldozing tactics are a failure. That company has got to comply with its or- dinace so far as I am concernea.’’ The Union Depot plans, which were sub- mitted yesterday, were to-day taken from the Committee on Streets and referred to the Committee on Public Buildings. attenuated want Changing Names of Streets. The Board of Public Improvements held a special session at noon to-day for the pur- pose of taking action on the Union Depot matter, and also on two ordinances recom- mending the namingand changing the names of a large number of streets.

THE PLOT CARRIED OUT AT HOTEL BELVEDERE EXPOSED, An Infant Obtained From the Female Hospital Smuggled Into the Hotel in a Basket of Clothes—The Woman’s Assistants in the Conspiracy Toll the tory. While Nina Marshall has been employing lawyers to find the father of her Hotel Belve- dere baby, Chiefof Police Lawrence Harri- gan, who has from the first adopted the theory thatthe whole affair was a plot to blackmail somebody, has had his detectives looking for the real mother of the child. They found her yesterday. She is Ida Bostrom, an unfortunate Swedish girl who is at presentthe nurse in the family of Mr. Dan Houser, the publisher. At noonto-day Chief Harrigan had in nis office Mr I. M. Kerley, Superintendent of the Female Hospital; Mrs. Mary Jane McMIl- lan, a woman doctress, living at 1612 Morgan street; Mrs. Sereda Callanan, the daughter of Mrs. Mc- Millan; Emma Neville, the mulatto maid of Nina Marshall, Mrs. Nelson, an old colored woman who does the washing for Nina, and S. 8. Bass, one of herattorneys. The Chief asked Mr. Bass tocomeinand listen to the statements of the other persons who had been brought to the office in order that he might know how false were the statements the Marshall woman had made to her attorneys. THE CONSPIRACY. All the people who had anything to do with the appearance of the baby at the Hotel Belvedere told their stories frankly, disclaiming any intention of wrong-doing. Secretary Henry Paschall took down the statements in writing. It appeared from them that on Monday evening, ct 17, Nina Marshall and her maid went to Mrs. McMillan and Nina asked her to get hera baby to adopt. *‘*My husband and I have quarreled,’’ she said, ‘‘and he has leftme,. ‘‘If I could give him a baby we woulda be reconciled, and my life would be happy.’’ Mrs. McMillan and her daughter were im- pressed by the appearance of tleir visitor, whose dress and behavior seemed that of a lady of distinction, and they were moved by her tears, which she shed copiously while she spoke of her life, blasted for lack of a baby. The two women readily consented to enter into a plot which they imagined had such a pious object. Mrs. Callanan went out to a drug store and, telephoning tothe Female Hospi- tal, asked if there were any babies out there for adoption. ‘*Three or four,’’ was the zeply. SMUGGLED INTO-THE HOTEL. Mrs. McMillan, ber daughter and the maid, gotintoacab and drove out tothe Female Hospital, getting there about 9 o’clock, Where’s that baby you promised me?’’ asked Nrs. Callanan, asthe night watchman came up. ‘*It’s too late; you come to-morrow,’’ said he. The party drove back, and Tuesday went there again and got the baby. It wasa boy, 6 days old, andthe mother consented to its adoption. ‘*‘Whoisto adopt the child?’’ asked Dr, Herley, ‘*‘Mrs, Annie Scott,’’ replied Mrs. Calla- nan. That was the name by which they knew Nina Marshall. They took the baby back to Mrs. McMillan’s house, and the maiu went off to teil Nina of the success ofthe plansofar. Mrs. McMillan put the baby in a basket and gave it some milk. The next morning early, the washerwoman, Mrs. Nelson, came to irs. McMillan’sand said Mrs. Scott haa sent her for the baby. The washerwoman put the baby intoa clothes- basket, covered it with white linen and so smuggied it into the hotel before the very eyes of porters, bell boys and clerks, A few. minutes after- wards, Mrs. McMillan, according to arrange- ment, followed the washerwoman tothe hotel and dressed the baby in the clothes that had been bought. She canie to the hotel every day, regularly, after thatto attend to the baby. DECEIVED THE DOCTRESS. Mrs. McMillan said that Mrs. tt sured her that there would be no trouble about the imposture; that her husband, would be so overjoyed when he found the baby that he would take her away from the hotel at once and they housekeeping.

Among real estate men who closely watch the current of events in their line of busi ness, there are several prominent agents who think it is a little peculiar that, without the slightest previous indication of a change, an institution so advantageously and ~per- manently located asthe Washington Univer- sity should, allofsudden, manifest an ear- nést desire to remove suchjan extensive insti- tution of learning to other quarters. No one has been heard to question the wis- dom of the proposed change, but a good deal of surprise has been manifested that so im- portant a move as the one contemplated should have been sprung in so briefa time and with so much apparent resolution to mvke the change. It has been argued that, ordinarily, a vast undertaking of this char- acter of so much financial Importance to an institution of its kind is eas discussed a, ee long time in ail its respective phases, and generally the first move is toadopt some measures to raise money or sell the reality now owned that the proceeds may be used tn paymentfor a new site and making the necessary improve- ments thereon. Parties taking this view of the Washington University’s removal, as the facts pertalning to the change are known to the public, In- cline to the belief that all the Washington av- property owned by the _§institu- has already been sold, or op- or bargained for at a_ stipulat- price by individuals, or purchased in the In- terest of some corporation that has secured other property and tis trying to buy morein the same locality. The University has the whole block on the south side of Washineton avenue, between Seventeenthand Eighteenth and all of the block between Eighteenth and Nineteenth, excepting about 100 feet oc- cupied by the Woman’s Christian Home. Wright’s Carriage Factory, occupying of about 1.5 fe et southwest corner of Nine- is the only building of any special value on the block between Nine- teenth and Twentieth streets, and it is posi- tively Known that Mr. Wright has been fre- quently importuned during the past few months to puta price on his property, but whether he has sold it is not commonly known. On the north side of Washington avenue, between Nineteenth and Twentieth streets, is the Culver range works occupying tie en- tire block, and it was positively stated a few weeks ago that this property had been purchased forthe C., B. & Railroad Co. However, Mr. Culver has been credited with his denial that the property had been sold, but nevertheless, while parties do not question Mr. Culver’s veracity inthe slight- est, they claim thatthe Culver biock has been optioned or bargained for by the rail- road company. Next westof Twentieth, on the north side of the avenue, there are two entire vacant blocks. Altogether this makes, with the University, the Wright and the Culver squares, six city blocks that are available for railway depot pur- poses, and the theory is that these proper- ties, With possibly allor a portion of other adjacent biocks, have been secured fora — station by the C., B. &Q. Railway oO It is no longera secret thata rightof way from Madison street south to Washington avenue, downthe Nineteenth street vailey, is being secured in the interests of some cor- poration, as numerous well defined purchases along the entire route amply prove. For five years or more past there has been talk of erecting an extensive passenger rail- way depot on Washingtonavenue near Twen- tieth street, and the sudden announcement of the removal of the Washington University, in connection with other facts treated of in this article, by real estate agents gives color tothe theory that the property has already been sold for railway purposes. The dwelling-house property, fronting 49 feet by a depth of 102'2 feet onthe north side of Locust street, at the rear of the Young Men’s Christian Association building atthe northwest corner of Eleventh street, has been sold by W. L. Balson for $32,000. The purchaser’s name is presumablya close se- cret, but it is said, nevertheless, that H. H. Culver is the buyer and that heis also nego- tiating for the Young Men’s Chris- tian Association property adjoin- ing. Mr. Balson bought the Locust street property about ayearagoat $18,000, his sale of it at the price stated being an advance of $14,000 over what the realty cost him. Another Locust street improvement in ad- dition to those mentioned for the corners of kighth aud Tenth streets, mentioned in last evening’s PoOsT-DISPATCH, is to be made by D. B.

How does this compare with the Republic’s al- leged city sales of 24,448 copies in the city and 32,492 in the country on ‘*high water mark’’ day, the 8th of October? its paraded report ‘‘gives the whole away’’ in these words: You will readily understand in the time allotted we could not make athorough examination to in- | clude any great length of time We decided to take your reports of an average day’s circulation, s8e- lecting one day, Oct. 8, 1892, as a fair average, But, gentlemen advertisers, circulation which the excep- tional the PostT- DIsPATCH may have had for a dayora/| | was named by a convention representing week, or even that which it may have held for three months, is not ‘‘bona fide circulation,’’ nor have we ever claimed that it was.

Will the Republic dare face this test and on this basis permit a committee of ad- vertisers to compare its circulation vouch- ers with those of the Post-DISPATCH and Globe-Democrat for the ten months of this year ending Oct. 31? In those ten months will be included all the padding it could get in the way of temporary circulation from campaign sub- scribers or by ‘‘cycloning’’ the slums with free lottery tickets in every issue. With that reinforcement, will it dare invite the average average circulation comparison? itshall, we donot deny and never have denied thatthe report of the com- |Mittee may show the Post-DiIsPATCH be- hind both of the morning papers in distant country circulation. But we are more than ever convinced by the much paraded report of Mr. Fuller as to the Republic’s 8th of October circulation, that the report of the committee will fully attest these facts: First—That the SUNDAY Post-DIsPATOCH, in those ten months, has been delivered to more regular subscribers in the homes of St. Louis and vicinity than any other newspaper printed in St. Louis. Second—That .during the same ten months the average local circulation of the SUNDAY Post-DIsPATCH has been more than twice that of the Republic. | -Third—That the regular average week- ae Rae any Bee SE er cieenintien ot Oe De oa ie in the metropolitan district which furnishes 95 per cent of the business of our retail trade has been in those ten months twice as large as the Republic’s and larger than the combined circulation of the Globe-Democrat and Republic within the sameé district. oe | Will the Republic dare to give a commit- tee of advertisers a fair chance to verify or disprove these propositions? —_— | aw Bin ir i. ll . HENRY GEORGE, In his address at Entertainment Hall to-night Mr. Henry George proposes to review Gov. McKinley’s speech of last Tuesday. He will examine the whole theory of protectionism as expounded by its ablest expounder, and explode the fal- lacies with which the politicians have so long befuddled and befooled the people. Mr. George is acknowledged, even by his economic enemies, to be one of the clearest headed, fairest minded thinkers in public life. His grasp on the principles of political economy is unsurpassed and he has a gift possessed by no other economist of making the subject interesting for its own sake. His famous book ‘‘Protection or Free Trade’’ is the clearest and most convincing demonstration of the fallacy of the protection theory ever written. Itis a intricate subject and has done more to en- than all other treatises since Adam Smith demolished the mercantile theory of trade more than one hundred years ago. transparent -honesty and close adherence to first principles enable him. to trace out biased by prejudice or self-interest. So complete and comprehensive is his work elaborate, illustrate and explain his prop- ositions. The secret of his great power, however, lies in his moral fervor.

All who are puzzled by the contradictory argu- 'ments im favor of the protective policy can rest assured that their doubts will be dispelled by a careful study of Mr. George’s refutation.

Work of the Secofiid Day’s Session of the Denver Convention. DENVER, Colo., Oct, 29.—Fully as large an audience as greeted the opening of the Woman’s Christian Temperance Union Convention yesterday was assembled this morning when the day’s work was begun. After devotional exercises the change in the constitu- making the National Secretary or Superintendent of the Young Women’s Branch a member ofthe Executive Commit- tee, was carried. The National Secretary announced that forty-two States, five Terrt- and the histrict of Columbia, general officers, fifteen super- intendents of departments, nine or- ganizers, thirty-seven vice-presidents, 53 State officers. 254 delegates, total 379, were represented at this convention.

Kngland, Susan B. Anthony of Leavenworth ItIs Peralleld by the Kansas “Straight- outs.’’ . Fort Scorr, Kan., Oct. 29.—Probably no other man in Kansas, in either party, is the subject of more severe or bitter execration and abuse than is Col. A. A. Harris of this city, Chairman of the State Central Commit- tee of the bolting ‘‘straightout’’ Democrats, which is using every influence to defeat the fusion ticket, and@* advising Democrats to vote for the Republican candidates. Not only arethe Democrats of the counties sur- rounding Bourbon County condemning Col. Harris, but every mail brings to him letters of denunciation and regret. Mr. Harris hasthis week been visited by J. B. Crouch of the Topeka Democrat, W. M. Mitchell, State Railroad Commissioner, and Wm, Rossington of Topeka, all for years identified actively with the Democratic party of Kansas, but who are now bolting and stumping the State for the Republican ticket. The ablest Democrats, and those in positions to know, openly accuse these men of being in the employ of the railroads, who are apprehen- sive that the legislators of the fusion House and Senate will be subversive to their pros- perity, and so strong is this belief in the minds of the Democratic voters that a poll of Bourbon County, Chairman Harris’ own home, by the fusionists, has failed to reveal a single man who sympathizes with the trai- tors, asthey are termed. Harris claimsa following of 30,000 Democrats and has an- nounced his ability and intention to elect the Republican ticket from top to bottom. These representations are absurd and are re- ceived by Democrats witha jeer, while the Republicans are patting him on the back. Helis activefy at work stumping the State with his co-workers and the Kepublicans are receiving them with open arms. The two **straight-out’’ meetings in this city this week were absolutely ignored by the Demo- crats and Harris was treated with contempt. Chairman J. D. Hill of the Second Con- gressional District Committee has just com- pleted @ pollof the district and issued a cir- cular stating that the ‘‘straight-out’’ move- ment has not affected fifty votes tn the dis- trict, and that the Second, the only district in the State with a Republican Congressman, will elect Moore, the fusion candidate, bya good majority. Chairman Breidenthal of the People’s Party State Central Committee has heen fig- uring on the coming election and sald to-day to the PostT-DIsPaTCH correspondent: ““There are not nearly s0 many voters in the State now as there were in 1888. Then the country was full of young men who were holding claims in Western Kansas, which gave the State a very large number of voters | To-day this | _ischanged, and «vhile we may have more | in proportion to its population. population we will not, in my opinion, poll as many votes.

On the State ticket Lestimate the Populist vote at 179,000 and the Republican vote at 143,00, giving the People’s party State ticket 36,000 majority. As to the lo ses our party has sustained by reason of our men returning to the Republican party tlhatisa matter upon which there has been more misrepresenta- tion than upon all other matters connected with this campaign. The man who states _thatany considerable number of our men /have returned to the Republican party ts either woefully ignorant or ts a willful politi- Tha facts are that no man has left party except a few of the fol lowing classes: First, men like Frank Mc- Grath, ex-President of the State Aillance, who joined the movement in the hope of se- curing office; second, men who simply voted the tieket on account of some personal grudge against the Republican party, orsome of its candidates, and third, men who arein politics for the money there is init and have secured their price. Ihave no doubt in the worid that Kansas will be taken out of the Republican column on Nov. 8.’’ cal Har. POLITICAL NOTES. —_——- — AN OVER ZEALOUS REPUBLICAN OFFICEHOLDER BOUNCED. ALTOONA, Pa., Oct. 29.—The President’s train reached Pittsburg this morning at 6:20, having madean unexpectedly good run to that point. None of the passengers were awake on reaching Pittsburg. At 6:40 the train pulled out for its ascent up the western Slope of the dAlleghanies. Most of the occupants had risen by the time Johnstown came in sight and they viewed the great changes and improvements that had taken place here since the gre at flood of 1889 with much Iinter- est. Breakfast was partaken of while rounding the famous horseshoe curve and Altoona was reached at 9:45, fifgy minutes ahead ofthe limited schedule. If this rate of travel is maintained that train’ will reach Washington at 4 or 5 this evening. TURNER AT CHARLESTON. CHARLESTON, Mo., Oct, 29.—J.

Notwithstand- ing the Republicans used all their efforts to Keep the colored voters, whom Mr. Turner had especially wished to address, away from the hall, there were a great many present and when it comes to the test there were many who were converted by ‘Mr. Turner’s speech. Mr. Turner made a rousing speech wv hich was beyond the expectation of the Republicans who gathered atthe meeting to find some flaw that they could make sport of. ? BUCK’S EDITOR.

WILMINGTON, Del., Oct, 28.—United States Senator Anthony B. Higgins has been ac- cused of anattemptat bribery by Isaac J. Wooten, Democratic Registrar in East Little Creek Hundred, Sussex County, Del. Mr. Wooten disclosed an alleged plot of the Republicans tocarry Delaware for the Re- publican Presidential electors by fraudu- lent means. Hesaysthat on Oct. 13 he had an interview with Senator Higgins atthe dwelling house of G. E. Smith, Postmaster at Laurel, whoisone of Higgins’ political lieutenants and a man of great influence, At this interview Wooten says that Higgins said that if he would do what Smith wanted him to in Sussex County the Republicans would carry Delaware atthe Presidential election. Higgins declared it was his ambition to show the ople that he could carry his State. He said Harrison would back him up, and that Nobile would stand by him. Previous to the interview with Higgins it had been proposed to Wooten by Smitu that he (Wooten) should get himself chosen as voters’ assistant for Little Creek, and then manipulate the tickets of the illiterate voters in the interest of the Republicans. Wooten says he pretended to be willingto do what was wanted in order to find out who was back of the scheme. Higgins in the interview with Wooten promised, so Wooten says, that if he would manipulate the ballots as required he should be re ded by a lurcrative office. Woouen says he reported the matter to his friends and they told him to get ee to promise him some | eh py place. ooten accord- ingly mentioned to gt ned ang Re wanted the tion in the land th wrote hich showed Woot terfrom Higgins in re- gard to the matter. ‘for President Harrison and Mr, Gen.

He was met at the depot by Assistant Secre- taries Wilson and Williams of the State Com- mittee and driven to the Lindell, where he took ai light breakfast. He then made a bee line for the Turkish bath and announced that he would be deadtothe world foracouple of hours. He has come home from Washington to speak ata big rally arranged for next Monday evening in Exposition Music Hall. He then leaves to speak else- where in the _ State. Monday night he will talk tariff and defend the McKinley schedules from the McKinley standpoint. He will also attack the position of ex-President Cleveland and the policy adopted at the Chi- cago convention. Gen. Noble remained tn the hotel untilafter 12 o’clock, when he emerged look- ing the picture of health and contentment. A representative of the Post- DISPATCH was -in waiting and he received a most cordjal welcome from the Secretary of the Interio®. Unlike many other men of public renown Gen. Noble Is al- ways affable and pleasant, particularly to representatives of the press. GEN.

Noble was asked what he thought of the outlook in Missouri, and that if he con- sidered the Republican leaders rainbow chas- ing tn their effort to elect Warner. inreply he said: ‘‘Maj. Warner, I am sat- isfled, will be the next Governor of Missouri. Everything points that way now. He will be elected and he will make Missouri a model executive. iThat there is a new awakening in this State is too decidedly marked to doubt it and it means a change in the administration of State affairs. ‘*Now so far as the work of the State Com- mittee is concerned, they are working in the right direction and will accomplish the re- sult expected.

His engagements for Friday and Saturday nights have not yet veen arranged. He will be back here Mon- day and vote at the election. How a Riot Was Averted. The parade of the Warner Democratic Club, an organization composed mainly of bums marshalled by Cuddy Mack and John Thomas Brady, came very near winding up inariot lastnight. The Warner Democrats started out from Broadway and Biddle with a band furnished by the Republican club on the recommendation of Mark Char- trand. Cuddy Mack and John Thomas Brady, both notorious characters and ex-dive “eg: ers, were iniull charge. They got up the club on the platform of a **Wide Open Mis- souri,’’ which they expect War- ner will give if he is elected. These worthies have a grievance against Maj. Harrigan, the Chief of Police, because his department closed up their es- tablishments. They want a Kepublican Po- lice Board and a new chief who will not give so mach attention tothe holdover law, which on more tRan one occasion deprived them of their liberty and restrained them from engaging in their siugging pursuits. When the paraders reached broadway and Washington avenue, they got mixed up with a cable train and the parade broke up In sec- tions. Fora time it seemed that the xripman and conductor would be mobbed. When the scattered forces reached Sixthand Chestnut word reached themthat a negro club was coming from another direction. The ‘‘War- ner Democrats’’ at once got ready for an attack, but were frustrated by the presence of mind of a member of the Repub- lican City Committee, who hastily sent word to the negro paraders to keep out of the reach of Warner Democrats. Whenthe Afro-American enthusiasts heard that John Thomas Brady and Cuddy Mack were in command they acted on the sug- gestion without any argument. hong > ubli- can leaders steered the followers df Brady and Mack up to Turner Hall, where they were regaled with a banquet of beer and sancwiches. The committee will not give the club another turnout, as the membDers consider it a dangerous proceeding. Thought He Was a Deputy Marshal, There was agood story toidon Col.

Nancy Hanks was sent against her rec- ord by Dobie on the new kKite-shaped course at Sedalia Thursday inthe presence of some 17,000 persons, but she was hampered consid- erably by a stiff wind, andthe best the mare could do was to cover the mile in 2:06%%, which, however, under the circumstances demonstrates that Sedalia’s new course is all that its builders claims, namely, one of the fastest of its class in the West. Mr. himself, after registering, left the hotsl. He is on his way to Terre Haute, where his stable winters. Nancy Hanksis not, as is generally supposed, the property of Mr. Doble. The latter only handles the mare for J. Malcom Forbes, a millionaire Bostun fancier of trot. ting horses. : Convict Sub-Leasing Illegal.

The whole fabric of his argument is vulnerable.

He says heis a Demo- crat because he believes in free trade, and that he believesin tree trade because he is a single tax man.

ALLEGE DiCcePTION, ee ee Grounds on Which Mrs. Margaret Mce- Coy’s Children Contest Her Will ThomAés F. Connelly and John F. Connelly, by his next friend, Thomas F. Connelly, be- gan a sult to-day to set aside the willof Mrs. Margaret McCoy, the mother cf Thomas F. and John F. Connelly and Mary B. McCoy. who is madea defendant to the suit, together with Martin 8s. Brennan, a brother of Mrs. McCoy. The petition sets forth that Mrs. McCoy, prior to her death,de- posited with Brennan $3,350, of which sum $2,800 remains in his hands. In her will Mrs. McCoy, itis aileged, gave $1 to each of the plaintiffs and Mary B. McCoy, and gave the balance of the estate to her brother, Martin S. Brennan. It isalleged that Mrs. McCoy was not capable of making a will and that she was infiuenced by Brennan, whoilt is charged, used deception. a ee Wanted the Guardianship. Anitnteresting legal fight for the posses- sionof a 33-year-old child took pluce in the Probate Court late yesterday afternoon. The cnild is Frank Guerke. Both of his parents are dead, and he itis the heir to an estate vaiued at $2,509, His father, Gustav Guerke, dled about two weeks ayo and his mother has been dead fora year. Since the death of his father the chiid has been cared for by his aunt, Mrs. August Brune of 1520 Menard street, who was a sister of the chiid’s father, who dled at her house, The maternal grandmother of the boy, Mrs, Caroline Maty, who lives in C arondelet , and Mrs. Brune were each seeking the custody of the child. A feature of the case was that love for the child seemed to be the incentive on both sides. Each party expressed a willingness to raise the chiid without remuneration from the little fortune which, if left to accrue, Will be a handsome sum when he comes ofage. Both sides had lawyers retained and the case was bDitterly contested before Probate Judge Woerner,fsitting in chambers, from 3 p. m. until 6:30 o’clock. Hon. W. M, Kinsey appeared for the grandmother, Mrs. Maty, and Attorney W. F. Woer- ner represented Mrs. Brune, the aunt, A number of witnesses were examined on both sides but the eviaence failed to disclose anything against either of the applicants tor the guardianship of the child. ‘The strongest polnt made against Mrs. Brune was that she was not a church member, while Mrs. Maty was a strict member. of one of the German churches in South 8t. Louls. Several witnesses testified, however, that the father ofthe chila had said that in the event of his death he would not want his mother-in-law to have the custody of his children. Upon this testimony Judge Woerner de- cided the case, giving the custody of the chfid to Mrs. Brune without making any orderas to remuneration. Vaul Guerke, a relative who administered on the estate to which the child is entitled, was made cu- rator. Other Suits Filed To-day. James H. Allen began a suit to-day against Raphael Pedretti and Charles A. Pedretti, doing business as F. Pedretti’s Sons, for $1,500, which he alleges he paid the de- fendants ona contract to decorate his house in Forest Vvark Terrace, and which he alleged they did not perform according to agree- ment. ‘jhe Franklin Bank fileda petition to-day asking leave to pay into court funds de- posited in the bank belonging to the order of the Iron Hall, amounting to $5,279.37, to be interpleaded for by the receiver of the Iron Halland other parties, someof whom have filed attachment suits and garnisheed the bank. Adam E, Wyler entered suit to-day against Joseph T. Donovan asking for an order to compel Donovan to convey to him a lot front- ing 50 feet on Easton avenue, in city block 4826, which Wyler alleges Donovan agreed to seil him: fur $600. Eugene Babbitt filed suit for divorce to-day against Nancy Babbitt, charging desertion. Tney were married in St. Clair County, Mo.. in February, 1883, and lived together until July 9, 1892. In Favor of Zieganhein. In the suit of the Sylvester Coal Co, against Nathan Owen and Collector Henry Ziegen- hein for $3,441.94, which was begun in Judge Klein’s court last Wednesday, and has been on ttrial ever since, the jury returned a verdict to-day, giving a judgment for $3,519.60 against Owen and giving judg- ment in favor of Ziegenhein. The action was based on a cialim for coal sold Nathan Owen & Op. by the Sylvester Coal Co., in 1891, when it was claimed, Mr. Ziezenhein was a mem- ber of the Owen Company, but this was de- nied by him.

Manufacturers have bought quite freely of fall clip Texas, as such wools were bought in the interior with more discretion and hence could be sold ata living profit. Other kirds of Texas and territory move fairly well when offered on a basis of recent sales, which are materially below prices paid earlier in thé season. Manufacturers as a whole are undoubtiy enjoying a prosperous business, and therefore have no necessity of bearing prices Nag | have simply taken advantage of the fact that the clip moved with unusual ranidity to the leading markets and caused a large visibie sup- biy of domestic, to which was added the largest imports of foreign wools on record, the latter amounting at the close of the tiscal. vear to 148,670,672 ibs. In 189] the imports were 129,303 648 a4 aa in 1890 they amounted to 105,431, 2 bs. The increase in the number of or in this coun- try was also considered quite a factor in the situation being 44,935,365 head in 1892, against 43,431,136 in 1891. The relatively high prices obtained for the coarser grades of bright wools is due to a special cause, namely: the pre- vailing fashion of serge goods in ladies’ wear and of cheviots in men’s goods.

One explanation of the uninterruptedly heavy movement of winter wheat tothe acenmulative cen- ters is that country elevators and warehouses flied up With wheat early in the season from the free farmers’ deliveries. Now that wheat keeps on de- clining, and has gore down so largely the calls from banks for margins from these country holders causes them to ship in wheat to market to meet these mar- gin demands and this keeps up the heavy run to market.

College Football—Steffelfinger Likely to Go Back to Yale—Mitchell’s Trial—A McAuliffe-Myer Boxing Bout—McCaf- ferty’s Betting Commissioner Returns to St. Louis. ™ NEw YORK, Oct, 29.,—The arrival of Peter Jackson on the Teutonic and the fact that Jim Corbett is being pursued by a girl and an angry bookmaker with a ‘‘gun’’ have re- awakened interest in the doings of those eminent knights of the knuckles, the more so as the colored Australian has taken up the trallof the Western female and her pencil driving triend, and is himself in pursuit of Pompadour Jim. Says Jackson: ‘‘I have issued my first chal- lenge, and if it is possible to force Gorbett intoafightI willdoso. He owes me areturn match, andIam bound to getitifthereisa fightin him. If he will not fight I will force him to give up the title he now holds, I will meet him at the Coney Island, California or National Sporting Club, and you can wager that whichever way the battle results there will be a winner, There will not be another draw.’’ Whether this will cause Jim to give up a money-making theatrical tour is freely dis- cussed and the general opinion isthat he would be very foolishif hedid. The men will undoubtedly get together sometime, but not in the immediate future. Meanwhile Peter is growing older and Corbett’s chances stronger. Comparatively little money is being wag- ered onthe result of the Godfrey-Choynski mill, to be decided atthe Coney Island Ath- letic Club Monday evening next. The battle is a good betting one, however, so far as the | mere notion of a gambleris concerned and before the fight a lot of money will be tied up in small wagers. Noreally big bets will be made for Choynski has never don anything to warrant strong suppor and Godfrey is growing old. grea many look to Choynski’s youth to pull him «through and others of his fol- lowers are simply taking ‘‘Parson’’ Davies’ tip. Choynski has never yet shown any- thing like Godfrey’s_.best form, but the latter’s age is against him, and it is felt in Many quarters that he will gounder. ‘‘Old Chocolate’’ has still a good bit of fight left in him though, and those who know him Dest are backing him heaviest to win the coming battle. Alex. Greggains expresses the opinion that Choynski will win if he is cautious, as Godfrey is very clever.

There ae Oly more beer to the men at Cambridge than atany other college and this is especially true of the candidates for the center of the rush line. Friends of A. A. Zimmerman, the crack wheelman, are annoyed at the reports that are stillin circulation throughout the coun- try thattheir man is a complete physical wreck. They say that this is untrue, that he is not a complete wreck. They say he is in excellent health and all that he needs Is arest. He is nowtaking advantage of his spare time by smoking an unlimited number of cigars and doing other things which he avoided intraining. Next year he will be on the track again, andin additition to wheel- ing will devote some attention to broad jumping. The entries for the eighth annual horse show, which opens Nov. 14, have closed. This year’s show will eclipse all others. More than 600 horses have been entered and the value of the prizes is $35,000. BASE BALL. The Chicago Base Ball Club is having a lot of trouble getting the old men to sign for neXt season at reduced rates. Ryan, Hutch inson and Kittridge are firmly opposed to a cut, and do not appear anxious to be with the Colts next year. Ryan’s contract calls for $3,000 for three years, and when Manager Hart suggested a cut of $1,000, the nonpareil outfielder made a vigorous protest. He absolutely refused to sign at the price. Hutchinson says he will leave the diamond sooner than come down a cent in his terms, and kitt°idge, who has re- cently married, say s his increased responsi- bilities render t lim possible for him to stand a reduction. He.and Walter Wilmot find that they can make more money in connubDial life than the Chicago club Is willing to pay them. Schreiver is the only one ofthe old crew who has signed, and he submitted toa $1,000 cut. The outlook just now 1s not very encourag- ing for either the clubor the players. / THE RING, Lonpon, Oct. 29.—The appeal of Charley Mitchell, the prize fighter, who, on Oct. 7, was sentenced to two months’ hard labor for brutally assaulting George Salvage, an aged lodging-house Keeper, will be heard in January. Judge Sir Peter Edlin, before whom the appeal will be heard, has gained a reputation for the severity with which he deals with lawbreakers. He recently con- firmed with promptness a sentence imposed by a police magistrate on the pugilist Pritch- ard and this iact does not argue well for Mitchell. M’AULIFFE-MYER BOXING BOUT. Jack McAuliffe has gone broke again, so his friends in the East are saying. The money the clever lightweight made in New Orleans was blown against the races as soon as he got East. Of course he is notin any immediate need and with his theatrical contract he should feel secure for the future. like a little of the long green just at present and consequently there seems some semblance of probability in the statement made by the Chicago Dispaich that arrangements are on for a limited round sparring exhibition between him and Billy Myer at Chicago. Such an exhibition would draw like a mustard plaster. Myer is re- ported to be willing but says he would rather make it a finish fight. THE BUTTE ATHLETIC CLUB. A rival to the Olympic Club of New Orleans has sprung up in Butte, Mont. The new organization is termed the Butte Athletic Club and at present one of its directors, George Haldron, is in San Francisco in search of ‘‘talent.’’ The Butte Club is composed of well-to-do citizens and its membership is limited. to . The members are not eyo as to the price they pay so long as is good. An effort will be made to arrange a .match between the winners of the Goddard-Maher and Choynski-Godatrey fights, and Haldron says that $6,000 will be forth- coming for a match between Griffin and Murphy, the feather-weight pugllists.

PUGILISTIC POINTERS. Win or lose, George Goafrey say he will not fightagain. If Choynski loses he will aban- don the ring and try to make a living by some other means.

His efforts will probably be unsuc- cesful, as all the big clubs have refused to offer a purse, for they believe Dawson would make a chopping biock of Burge, tivel the THE TURF. **A racing association,’’ said a well-known New York lawyer, while discussing Ed Cor- rigan’s suit against the Coney Isiand Jockey Club, ‘‘is a business corporation, enjoying privileges for which it is requiredto make some publicreturn. Ifa man were ruled off for fraud or some serious infraction of the rules, I am inclined to think the decision would be the same as in this Huron case, But Ido not believe any judge will sustain the Coney Island or any other jockey clubto to the extentit has gone.’’ The lawyer went on to show how the obligations jockey clubs are under made it imperative that owners and others should have rights in the matter. The fact that owners expend their capital in forming and sustain- ing racing stables, which capital is practic- ally placed at the Service of racing assocla- tions, gives them unusualrights that every court of law would feel it incumbent on Itself torespect. ‘‘Why, for the time being the stockholdefs of the association and the horse owners are toall intents and purposes partners. It would ve just as unfair and ar- bitrary on the part of the club to lock its gates againstan owner who had not ren- dered himself amenable to such action as it would be for one Dusiness partner to lock another out of his place of business.’’ In response to the question as to fhe status of those owners who have been forbidden to race on tracks governed by the Board of Control, unless they agree to abide by the board’s de- cision, the legal authority said he considered such action equally unjust. ‘‘I do not believe the clubs could maintain the legality of such action foran instant,’’ hesaia. ‘‘Iit is not alone that they refuse to receive owners and horses who race at objectionable times. Such a defense could receive able arguments on both sides. But they denythe rights of owners and horses who race on tracks where racing is held during the restricted season, Such action can scarcely be misunderstood. It is clearly a wanton destruction of property and an infringement of public and individual rights.’’ TENNY FOR $20,000. David Tenny Pulsifer, owner of the great swayback, when questioned recently as to how Tenny was getting alongand if he has sold him yet, said: ‘‘No; I haven’t sold Tenny, although:I have had a number of offers for him. My price is $20,000 and if I don’t get it I will keep him and either breed him to several mares I own or put himin training next season. Possibly I may do both.’’ Mr. Pulsiferis contemplating a trip to California. He has given up allideas of going to Europe. Tenny is now at Morris Park and is as fat as a Canadian pony. RAST 8ST.

A scheme concocted by the Republican State Committee of Kansas to defeat Sockiess Jerry Simpson, Congressman from the Seventh District, and to elect the entire State ticket of Kansas by furnishing free transpor- tation to the negroes of Oklahoma Territory to various points inthe Sunflower State, is exposed this morning by Hon. H. E. Tau- beneck, chairman ofthe National Executive Committee of the People’s party, through a member of the Populist Committee of Oxla~ homa Territory. The ietter conveying the information reached Mr. Taubeneck last night at the Richelieu Hotel and is as follows: GUTHBIE, Okla. , Oct. 27, ’92. Hion. H. E. Taubeneck, Chairman of National Committee : DEAR S1tR—I am fearful of the result as to the elec- tion in the ‘‘Big 7’’ District in Kansas, on account of so many negroes being furnished@ree transporta- tion from the Territory to Kansas. tam toid that many of them are dropped offat Wichita. Fifty-five left Guthrie on Monday and fifty more are to go to- morrow. Whatcan be done? 8. D. DICKER, Member of Territory Committee. When Mr. Taubeneck was asked this morn- ing if any action would be taken to prevent the voting of the negroes imported from Oklahoma Territory to Kansas, he replied: **Oh, of course we donot propose to let the matter pass by unnoticed, and will decide inaday ortwo what action we shall take. It became apparent that Kansas belonged to the Populists several months ago, and the Republicans have set about to devise some ee to redeem the State, and it appears rom -present indications "that decided on is made known inthe letter from Mr. Dicker, a@ member of our Territory Committee, and an entirly reliable gentleman. 1 heard several weeks ago that negroes were being shipped into Kansas by the trainload, but I was un- able to ascertain where they were coming from untill received the news from Guthrie las® night. I do not care what means the Republicans resortto, they can never carry Kansas, as itis reliably a People’s par- ty State by «a majority not lessthan 40,000. We will elect the entire State ticket, the ma- jority of the Congressmen, and the electoral vote will, as: a mat- ter of course, be fou in the Weaver column. The Republicans are making a des- perate fight, however, and will resort to any trickery to ‘defeat Simpson, who is being fought by the Republicans in Kansag in about the same manner as Tom Watsonis being fought by the Democrats in Georgla, When Ihear from Oklahoma again the National People’s party headquarters will turn its_at- tention to Kansas and makean attempt to spoil the plans concocted by some shrewd Republicans to steal the State from us,’ GRAND EXCURSION TO THE OITY OF MEXICO.
