MANY BATTLE-SCARRED VETERANS OF FINANCIAL AGITATION PRESENT. Hundreds ot Visitors Excluded From the Hall tor Went cof Room and Socres of Delegates Foroed to Stend in the Aisies—Call to Order by Chairmen ‘Warner end Introduction of Mayor Harrison—His Address of Weloome— General Proceedings. Ourcaco, Aug. 1.—The National Conven- tion of the American Bi- Metallic Leagpe met at 10 o’clock in this city this morning, and the attendance was larger than that of any previous assembly of like kind in the history of financial agitation. Thearmy of delegates assembled over-crowded the First Methodist Church auditorium an hour before the meet- ing was called to order, and it was early apparenta large number would have to be excluded. The features of many of the dattie- scarred veterans of financial agitation were visible in the heterogenous mass. Gen. A. J. Warner of Ohio, President of the League, stood with Congressman Bartine of Nevada, and near them was seated Congressman Bryan of Nebraska,aman of opposite po- litical faith from Mr. Bartine, but foremost in the common battle for free coinage. A few feet away from the Colorado delegation was Gov. Waite of the Silver State. Senators Mantle of Montana and Shoup of Idaho conversed fraternally with Patterson of Colorado, the first two Republicans, and the last the leader of the free - coinage faction in the Democratic National Convention of a year ago. „Gov.“ Kolb, the Populist leader of Ala- bama, surrounded by a score of brawny Populists, was one ofthe most conspicuous men in the convention, and as he conversed warmly with Editor Goodwin of the Salt Lake Herald the two were joined by Herman G. Taubeneck of the Executive Committee of the People’s party, anda moment later the interesting trio was increased by Senator Dubois of Idaho, who will observe no caucus that opposes the free colnage of silver. When Chairman Warner called the conven. tion to order scores ot delegates were obliged to stanain the alsies. In a few opening words Chairman Warner introduced Mayor Harrison of Chicago, who welcomed the delegates. **Chicago seems to be the spot, said he, nere all turn themselves that their ideas may be spread over the land. I welcome you this morning because I believe you have the good ofthe country at heart, Some of you may be rather wild, It is said you are lunatics—silver lunatics. Tlook down upon you and am glad to welcome such lunatics. {[Applause.] Alexander the Great, the three wise men of the East who found the Saviour, Martin Luther, Christopher Columbus and Napoleon Bonaparte were all called lunatics in their times, butall have left their mark on the sands of time. It is crazy men who march the world forward and make progress possible. You may be denounced, but John Sherman was always crazy enough to fll his pockets with the wealth of this world. Gold is found in pockets, It is the fruit of chance, but silver is worked out of the rocks by hard labor. [Applause.] They say that those who believe in silver bi- metalism are crazy. If the act of 1878 could De blotted from the annals of American political action I believe silver would be worth 129 cents an ounce. [Applause.| Be wise in your deliberations, but be fearless. Congress is about to meet. Give the bene- fit of your deliberations to Congress and tell Grover Cleveland what the people want.’’ [Great applause.) Hon. Thos. M. Patterson, in responding to Mayor Harrison’s address, said: **When they tell me Chicago is a gold-bug | dent Cleveland at this time is at the city, and I look behind me and see as its Mayor one of the most distinguished champ. fons of bi-metallism of the, country, I can only say those who say it mistake the bankers and brokers of Chicago for the masses of the people—a mistake often made. [Applause. ) Referring to the thousands of idie men thrown out of work by closing silver smelters, he said: It there is danger of anarehy in this land, who will produce the Anarchists? [Cries of **The millionaires!’’ Wall Street!’’) It there is danger of looting, who will be the cause of it? Wiil it be the men who are driven from their homes by poverty, who have been loyal, law-abiding and country- loving citizens, or will it be the men who, in cold blood and for selfish purposes, 80 manipulated the legislation of this country that the money needed to keep its body in good health was destroyed or fied to hiding places andthus made their laboring men paupers, thrown upon the charity and the Christianity of the land? [Applause.] **We are asking for free coinage. That Hilamilton and Jefferson and Monroe gave to the country, and it was ratifed by Congress and the people when Andrew Jackson was President. [Applause.) We stand by the jaw of 1702, placed upon the statute books when the constitution was first adopted and when the thirteen free and independent colonies became united as free and inde- pendent States. [Applause.) We are in favor of the constitution of our fathers, and we are in opposition to the Anarchists of the land, the Anarchists who sit behind banking counters, [{Applause.] The Anarchists who, by their legislation, would turn the poor people of the land out of their homes, the Anarchists who are forcing down prices and robbing every man of one-half of that which he ownsinthe shape of property.

There was but one man in the Senate who knew the act de- monetized silver; and yet he has never been hung ana shot for treason. [Greatapplausze. ] That act will de known in histo as the crime of 1878.

Let both Sherman laws go to- getherand place the country back on the constitution and the law as it stood before 1873. In his conclusion the speaker denounced the metropolitan newspapers of the country as being controlled by the money power and characterized their editorials as being but the inspiration and the biddingotf the gold- bugs instead of the conscientious ex- pressions of the writers. After Mr. Warner had concluded the con- vention proceeded to the appointment of committees. A committee on credentials was appointed, consisting of one member from each State. On motion of Ex-Congress- man *+ymes of Colorado the chairman was authorized to appoint a committee of five on | permanent organization.

The Committee on Permanent Organization was also authorized to select a larger hall in which to hold the sessions of the convention, The convention then adjourned till 2:80 p. m On reassembling the Committee on Perma- nent Organization reported recommending Hon. Alien W. Thurman of Ohio, son of the Old Roman,“ as permanent Chairman of the convention, ‘ihe report was ratife’ by a unanimous vote and Chairman Thurman being introduced by the retiriag Chairman was received with great applause and spoke as follows: MR. OCHATRMAN AND GENTLEMEN: The fight between those who believe the cir- culating medium of this country should be hard money--that ts, real money, gold ann sliver, and paper redeemable in the same— and those who believe in the use of soft money—that is, pa per promises to pay money, redeemabie in other promises to pay—tis on. Since the late demand in the East to have the Government issue bonds and thecry now made for the unconditional repeal of the Sherman law, charging it, regardless of facts, with all the is flesh is heir to, ought to make this perfectly apparent to every think- ing man; for should the Sherman Jaw be re- | pealed substituting anything in the without lieu thereof, it means final destruction of silver money as a measure of valve, and no man can tell if it win ever be restored to its former place. This means for years and years to come, its reduction to token money, after which the issue resolves itself down simply to the ques- tion whether the paper money of the country is to be issued by — upon the debts of the Deople, or upon other kinds of corporate securities, or If it is to rest upon the broad and safe basis of gold and silver. This is so, because gold alone certainly cannot afford a sufficient basis upon which the amount of circulating medium required by the people of this country can safely rest.’’ THE PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE.

The Improved Tone Due to Engagement of Gold in London. Nrw York, Aug. 1.—Wall Street was more cheerful to-day than for months. The change in the temper of the speculators and the improved tone were due to the reported engagement ot gold in London for shipment to New York and Onicago, It was announced $4,600,000 gold had been withdrawn from tbe Bank of England ee SS America. Of this, $500,000 is consigned to the first National Bank at Chicago, the same amount tothe ns Trust Co. of Chicago, and $250,000 toa Boston bank.

Blockade of the Ports Still Enforced by Admiral Humann. BREW COMPLICATIONS IN THE SETTLE- MENT OF THE CONTROVERSY. * A French Commission Sent to the Slam ese King to Demand Guarantees of Good Faith—The Answer to the Ulti- matum Does Not End the Question— Muttering of the British Press Over the Action of France. Panis, Aug. 1.—There are sigus that the Government is bending before the blast that is blowing from the Boulevards. It is now explained that France has not really accepted Siam’s full submission to the demands of the French ultimatum. The submission was only put on record when it was ré@ived from Prince Vadhana, the Siamese Minister to France, and nothing final will be done until M. Leyderede VII. lors. the French Plenipotentiary, who is now on his way to Siam, has accomplished his mission to Bangkok. His instructions are specific as to certain guarantees that Siam must make to carry out the terms of the ulti- matum. The suggestion that France has been influenced by England in the settlement of the Siamese incident is galling to the French, and the Government finds it neces- sary to prolongthe controversy even at the risk of giving offense to Great Britain by the continuance of the blockade of Siamese ports. Dispatches from Bangkok recetved in Paris last night support the report current here and in London that Admiral Humanon had not raised the biockade, but was taking steps to make it more effective, even going so far as to notify the British warships Sur- prise and Pallas to move without the line of blockade. These ships are lying in the Gulf of Slam, just of tha mouth of the Menam. Bangkok, according to these dispatebhes, is in constant fear of an attack from the French ships comprising Humann’s fleet, Which now numbers thirteen vessels. This fleet lies at the Island of 81 Chang, near the head of the gulf. It is said Lord Dufferin and M. De Velle at their interview yesterday merely amplified what has already been prepared for signa- ture. Discussion was confined to a rough draft of the convention for the delimination of the frontiers of the territory to be hafided over tothe French by the Siamese and the formation ofa buffer country between the French and British possessions. ENGLAND IS ANXIOUS. Lorpor, Aug. 1.—London papers are at a loss to account forthe course which advices from Bangkok indicate France is pursuing in Siam. The Daily Neuss this morning says: The latest news from Bankok is very serious. Slam having aecepted the French terms, France's persistence in maintaining a blockade will be equivalent to an unprovoked declaration of war, not an open demand for the cession of Siam. We have no desire toattack France, but while Lord Roseberry made up his mind from the first not to assist nor encourage the Siamese, he was equally determined with the full approval of his colleagues, to protect the commercial rights of his own country. He daistinctly warned France that British vessels could not be stopped under a blockade avowédly pacific in character. It is quite Impossible for Great Britain to withdraw the ships she sent to Bangkok for protective purposes. We cannot be accused of exciting public feeling against France. But moderation is one thing, weakness an- other. The Standard this morning again affirms andat greater length than yesterday that owing to the representation made to M. De Velle by Lord Dufferin, the question of a neutral zone between the French possessions in the Siamese peninsula and British Burmah and the Shan States has been settled satis- factorily, and that it has been agreed the French blockade of the Siamese coast shall be raised immediately. Reports of similar purport appear again in the Post. SIAM GIVES GUARANTEES. PARIS, Aug. 1.—Prince Vadhana, the Siam ese Minister to France, called at the Foreign Office to-day and informed Foreign Minister Develle that Siam was prepared to give thesupplementary guarantees required by Frarmce for the fulfillment of the terms the of ultimatum pending a final settlement of the questions involved. Itis understood thatthe French willoccupy the river and port of Chant. bund, which town lies 175 miles to the south east of Bangkok on the Gulf of Siam, untila complete evacution is made by the Siam military ports on the left bank of the Me- Kong river ENTERED THE MENAM. BANGKOK, Aug. 1.—English and German gunboats entered the Menam River to-day. They proceeded up the river and eame to an anchor off the city. SECRET NEGOTIATIONS. Loxpow, Aug. 1.—A dispatch from Bangkok to-day says that negotiations with France are of such secret character that absolutely nothing can be learned. If no divergent ac- tion is taken by the French fleet, it is ex- pected the details will soon be amicably set- tied. ’ 1 n FOREIGN NEWS, No Truth in the Rumors of Dominion Cab net Changes. OTTAWA, Ontario, Aug. 1.—The stories pub lished of changes soon to be made in the Cabinet are false.

WORKS ONLY ONE WAY. = A Peculiar Law ef the Police Relief Asso- ciation—City Hall News. City Counselor Marshall gave an opinion to the Police Board to-day in the matter of placing the name of the widow of Officer L. A. Boone onthe police pension list. Boone was shot by an unknown man on May 13 last near the House of Refuge. The wound was inthe arm, and thought to be slight, but blood poisoning set in, and be died three days ter. His widow received $1,000 from the police relief fund, and subsequently sought to have her name placed on the regu- lar pension list. The City Counselor holds that the widow of any police officer who has been killed while in the discharge of his duty, or who 18 retired by reason-of age Or other valld cause is entitled to have her name placed on the police pension list, but is debarred thereby from receiving any aid or remuneration from the police relief fund. In the case of the widow Boone, however, it appears that she has already recetwed $1,000 from the relief fund, and, he says he nas nothing in the law which prohipitsa Widow after receiving money from the re tet fund from also being placed on the regulat pension list. . If she had been on the pension list, then she could not have received anything from the relief fund, but the law makes no pro- vision vice-versa. He therefore holds that as the present act stands thereis nothing to prevent the Police Board from placing Mrs. Boone’s nameon the regular pension list. Removing Faupers. City Comptroller Sturgeon, Health Com- missioner Homan and City Counselor Mar- shall will hold a conference to-morrow to determine what shall be done about remov- ing certain inmates of the Poor-house to quarantine station so as to make more room atthe former institution. The City Counselor has already xiven an opinion that this cannot be legally done, but the Health Commissioner says he willdo it unless pro- hibited by the Mayor. As Oomptroller Sturgeon holds the purse strings, he has strück a snag and the Comptroller wishes to confer with him ana the City Coun- sellor before he gives his consent to meet the bills which will arise from the change. Mr. Sturgeon sald to-day that he was inclined to think the Health Commissioner would have to abandon the scheme for the present. Board of Public Improvements. The Board of Public Improvements met this morning with all the members present. A pretest was received from some citizens of DeHodiamont against the laying of a private sewer on Hamilton avenue between Maple and Bartmer avenues. It was referred to the Sewer Commissioner. The Joint Committee on Streets and City Lighting, to whom was referred the plans of the Depot Railway Co. tor laying tracks under their new ordinance, recommended their approval on condition that in certain specified places, and particulariy on all curves, the granite blocks be laid on sand. Mr. Leopold Schmalz, the contractor who repaired the pavement for the Lindell Rail. way Co. on Washington avenue, between Jef- ferson and Compton, appeared before the board and asked them toapprove his work. He said the Lindell Railway Co. would not ay him until the board approved the work. resident Me ath informed him that the board could notapprove his work at pres- ent for fear of compromising the city in its contract with Alien & Vieths, who are compelled to do all repairs on that street. Mr. Schmalz said he thought he was playing in pretty hard luck. Leaves of absence were granted President Mc\iath, Commissioner Murphy and Commissioner Holman, Park Commissioner Fechter was elected President pro tem. MORE REFUGEES.

CUDAHY FAILS. —_— —— —ůꝛ—L(̊• Clap of Thunder on Chicago's Board of Trade. The Utmost Consternation Was Im- mediately Created Among Traders. PRICES TUMBLED ALL OVER THE FLOOR OF THE EXCHANGE. Collapse of a Big Pull Deal in Pork The Failure Fcreshadowed dy the Tremendous Fall in the Prics of Pork From $19 to 810 Per Parrel This Morning—Others Involved— Failures. CHICAGO, Aug. 1.—For the past two weeks the provision pit on the Board of Trade has been very Gull, and especially in the mess pork. Some days last week there was not a single trade in that article for hours. There was a shadow over the market and every- body was afraid totouch it. Last March the trade became aware of the fact that some one was ‘‘bulling’’ the market, and after a time it became a matter of general belief that the deal was run bya single heavy opera- tor, who did not appear in it in person, but who worked through the well-known broker- age houses of J. G. Stever & Co., E. W. BKalley & Co., and A. C. Helmholz. The weeks passed, and it became necessary for the per- son to buy a large amount of pork at high prices, Then came the,monetary stringency, and as its grip tightened those who had been bulls on pork, and the list of ‘‘tailers’’ who always follow the leaders of any daring speculation, began to see the inevitable and stand from under. This added to the strain on the manipulator of the deal and made the outcome more certain. The outcome this morning was the cry from the balcony of the trading room that the firms above mentioned were unable to meet their contracts and ad- vising those having trades with them to close them out under the rules. The sound of Secretary Stone’s voice had not ceased to reverberate in the lofty room when dedlam broke loose in the provision pit. The other pits were deserted. The com plained-of dullness in pork vanished as a roar went up from the wildly excited crowd, Sept. pork, which closed at $19 per barrel yesterday, was first offered at $18.75, then $18, then $17.75, $17.50, $17, $16, and so on down by quarters. halves and dollars, till the price touched $10, a sheer descent of $9 within a little over half an hour. Brokers shouted themselves hoarse and red in the face in their frantic efforts to protect themselves and fairly tumbled over each other in the struggle to let a bidder have mess pork at his own pricein quantities to suit. At the bottom the deals seemed to be about all settled and the market for the first time Operators began to see that pork at $10 per berrel, with hogs at the ruling price, was cheap and they began to buy. The price began gradually tocrawlup, touching $11, then $12 and at ll o’clock the pit was again quiet and the market steady at $11.75. There is no means of knowing just how much is involved in the deal, but it is estimated the specula- tor referred to was long to the amount of 50, 000 barrels, which, with a loss of $9 per barrel, would be about $450,000. At In m., just as matters had settled down and began to look serene, a series of thunderclaps fairly shook the Board of Trade building. The failures of the North Ameri- can Provision Co. and of Jack Cudahy, the heavy packer and daring operatorin hog products, andof Wright & Haughey, heavy receivers and shippers of grain, were an- nounced, created the utmost consternation, and prices began to tumble all over the floor of the Exchange. Cudahy was largely interested in the North American Provision Co., and when its failure was announced that of Cudahy was looked for, and it was not long until it came. After thatthe fallure of Wright & Haughey was not unexpected, as they were interested with Cudahy in his deals. Cudahy had been carrying a large amount of lard and in ad- dition has dealt heavily in ribs. The sudden slump in pork this morning caught him un- prepared to meet the decline in lard and ribs which accompanied it, and he was forced tothe wall. It is impossible now to tell the amounts involved, but they are de- lieved to be very large. The North American Provision Co. alone is capitalized tor $250,000. The John Oudahy Packing Co., which has its main house here, witha branch at Louis- ville and Nashville, is owned by Mr. Oudaby, but its affairs are separate from his private affairs and, so far, there is no indication that itis involved. In the rush to cover con- tracts with the insolvent firms the price of September lard went down to 6.00c,a loss compared with the opening price 8.75c. It closed at 6.62c, September ribs fell to 5.90c, against 7. 250 at the opening, recovering to 6. Mac, however, before the close. NUMBER OF ARRESTS PROBABLE. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Aug. 1.—It was learned here last night that there will likely be a number ofarrests asa resultof the Indian- apolis National Bank failure. Evidence made public yesterday shows the defunct concern was grossly mismanaged, and that the $1,100,000 of deposits were strewn about with lavish hands. It has been given out al- ready that the 81.500, 000 of loans carried by the bank are worthless to such a degree that depositors may not realize over 25 cents on the dollar.

He was a railroad section boss, or had been, and a member of the Catholic Knights of lilinols,. in which organization his life was insured for $2,000. For some years he had deen af. flicted with heart-disease, but though he was S4 years of age, his health was sufficiently good to enable him to work. On Thursday last he came over to st. Louis to endeavor to get a position and later in the day his body was found in the hallway at 112 Gratiot street, as stated, and taken to thé Morgue by Officer McKeon. 3 In the pockets of the deceased there were among a great many other papers and articles a deposit book on the First National Bank of East St. Louls made in favor of Maggie Sheehan.

Vail’s Declaration Just Be- fore He Breathed His Last. PASSED AWAY AVOWING HIS INNOCENCE OF CHARGES AGAINST HIM. He Did Not Want His Mother Worried— The Reference He Made to Charles Funke, His Friend, concerning the Al- legations Against Him—Funeral Ser- vices Over Vail this Afternoon. It has just come to light that Charles F. Vail, just before he breathed his last, madea statement to his bosom friend, Mr. Charles Funke, concerning the killing of Mrs, Vall. Since Vail met with nis awful fall at the Union Trust Co. Bullding last Thursday the question has been asked a thousand times, did he make a statement or will he make a state- ment before he dies?’’ The curious public has stretched its ear to catch from Vail’s bedside the least reference to the tragedy of his life, the shooting of his wife at Old Monroe, Lincoln Co., Mo., Feb. 6, 1890. She died the next day from the effects of the bullet, fired from the revolver in her husband’s overcoat pocket. The courts and the public have since labored to settle the point as to whether the revolver was fired by accident or design. Lawyer Marshall FT. McDonald, vanu's counsel and confidant, has been looked to for a statement from Vail, but until last night Mr, McDonald did not know that Vail bad said a word to any one about the tragedy, from the time of his fall to the cellar of the Union Trust Co. Building up to the moment of his death. Last night, however, Mr. McDonald met Charles Funke, a friend of Vail’s, who passed Saturday nicht with the dying man and hada conversation with Vail, in which he made a reference to his case, which is of interest. REFERRED TO THE CASE. At midnight, Saturday, an hour before Vail died, Mr. and Mrs. Vail had retired,and their son George had gone down-stairs. Charles F. Vail then said to Mr. Funke: Charlie, are we alone?“ We are. „Well, Charlie, Iam going to die. Mr. Funke urged him to de more hopeful, but to no effect. All Iask of you, Charlie, ts mother know that I am about to dle. will be grieved enough when lam gone.“ Vall paused a moment and added: 4s to the charges against me, I can die in perfect eace. All I want you to do is to keep it rom mother that lam going to die.“ Vail said no more, and died within the hour. His remark that as for the charges against him he could die in peace, indicates that to the last he wasfirmin his adherence to bis protests of innocence. THE FUNERAL. The funeral took place at 8 v’clock this afternoon from the home of Vall’s parents, 937 Hamilton avenue to Bellefontaine Cemetery. When the hour for the last sad rites approached the friends of the family gathered about the coffin, and Rev. Dr. F. L. Ferguson, pastor of the West Presbyterian Church, con- ducted the services for the dead, ac- cording to the standards of his creed. The parents of the dead man, especially the devoted mother, to whom Charles was so much attached, received the sincere sympa- thy of all who witnessed the pathetic scene. At the close of the religious services the fu- neral took its way to the cemetery. NOT A DIME MUSLUM. not to let She Queer Western Notionsasto What Was Wanted at the Exposition. From the Spokane Review. Queer ideas sometimes get afloat and stay around among the people for years. For ex- ample,a belief prevails among a number of ersons here in Spokane that the Govern- ment, or the State, or the city, or some mod- ern Monte Cristo has a standing offer of $500 to any one who will go over the falls in a Darrel. Downin Oregon a belief long pre- valled in some minds that the Government would pay $100 to the person who would plant an American flag on Mount Hood, A number made the ascent and ranupthe stars and stripes, but a cold and unpatriotic Govern- ment invariably failed to respond with the gore colin so severely earned. By some inci- ent or accident an impression got extant in this State that the Washington World's Fair Commission was seeking native-born triplets to exhibitatthe Columbian Expost- tion, and as a result the Commission received many letters of inquiry, a number of them saying that they could not provide triplets, but if twins were wanted the demand could be quickly met. Still others became deluded with the belief that the Commission was seeking far and wide for a badger. Letters on dle with the Commission indicate that a good many people thought the Washington exhibit was to rtake of the nature of a dime museum. It is surprising, though, how any one could seriously imagine that the Commission could make use of an animal so common as the~badger. The members are **badgered’’ enough even as matters stand. There are many queer things in the realm of nature, but there are queerer things in the realm of the imagination. BARNACLES ON FISH. The Tereio Known to Infest Fishes as Wellas Ships and Pilings. From the Fairhaven Herald. W. Riley, foreman of bridge construction on the B. B. 4 B. OC. road, is an acute ob- server of men and things. He has devoted considerable attention to the teredo and the sea louse, or ‘‘liminary,’’as he calls it, the bane of Puget Sound piling. Speaking of barnacles recently, he said that besides tastening themselves to ships and piling he has known them to fasten themselves to a species of fish found in these waters, and which are known as bullheads. Specimens of this fish have been found completely in- crusted by this little animal, sometimes to such an extent as to cause Geath, ‘‘Sticking like a barnacle“ would seem to be an appro- priate phrase. Injured by a Fail. Matthew Fitzsimmons ,50 years old, married and living at 1327 Wash street, fell from the fourth tothethird story of the new hotel building being erected on the old Planters“ House site, a distance of thirteen feet, at Ii a. m. to-day and received a scalp wound onthe top of his head and a cut over the right eye.

AMERICAN COLUMBUSES. Linsal Desc>ndants Who Are as Real as the Duke of Veragua. Buffale Special to Philadelphia Press. For the last fifty-two years there has lived in Buffalo a lineal descendant of Christopher Columbus, and around the knees of this pa - triarch could be gathered to-day eight living children, thirty grandchildren and six great- grandchildren, sothat there is little danger ofthe name of Columbus becoming extinct or forgotten. The name of this venerable descendant ofa famous man is Alexius Columbus. He is 96 years old; will, in fact, be 97 on Aug. 123 next. There is no doubt about his age or nativity, for these matters were verified by his son, John Columbus, with whom the old man makes his home, and who for that purpose paida visit to Quebec, near where Alexlus was born and reared. The old man igin fairly good health, His skin is swarthy and his hair is snow white. His children are all lighter complexion, except one daughter, Mrs. Rosa Columbus Sours of Chicago who inherits herfather’s dusky skin. Since the death of his wife last spring, at the age of 76, Alexius has been steadily failing in spirit. Alexius Columbus was a ship- bullder by trade, as was his ancestors. He is the only one of his generation who came tothe States. His sisters and brothers lived in the Province of Quebec, though it is not known that more than one of them Is still surviving. An uncle of Alexius lived tothe age of 114. The old man is a great lover of tobacco. He con- stantly chews or smokes. He has drank, and to this day has his whisky in his room, from which he takes his nip whenever he feels so inclined. Of late the old man has not been regular in his drinking habits, and will sometimes pass a day or two without taking a dram. His sons attribute this to approaching dissolution, and think the old man has not long to live. ‘Ihave been asked several times, said John Columbus, his son, if father would go to the World’s Fair. Some of my sisters are very anxious that he should go, but I oppose the idea. I think the old man would Detter assthe remainderof his days here in quiet han to be exposed to the dangers of travel and the fatigue. Besides I hardly think the old gentleman would enjoyit. He is not a learned man. Henever had any schooling. He cannot readand he hardly appreciates — significance of the Columbian Exposi- on. * His son John, it may be added, is a well - educated and prosperous man. Alexius, the father, is stillan aetive man and possessed of nomean physical powers, The wife of Alexius was an English woman. The grand- children of this union retainthe athletic mold, though their features are American, not continental. SALMON IN THE HUDEON. Some Results of the Work Done by the United states Fish Commission. From the Washington Star. Fora number of years the United States Fish Commission, co-operating with the New York Commission, has been engaged in stock- lng the Hudson and its tributaries with Sal- mon fry. This river, though never a salmon river, seemed to present the natural condl- tions for the establishment of the species. There are, however, on both the main river and the tributaries natural obstructions which would prevent the ascent of salmon to the spawning grounds at the sources of the stream. It was, therefore, determined to test possibilities in this direction by oontinu- ing to hatch out and plant the f in the headquarters, inthe expectation that th would gotosea and on their return sho themee vesat the different obstructions in e river. Several hundred thousand fry have been planted in the river each season tor some ears past; and two years ago 10,000 2 —.— sh from the Maine station were also plant season OF more than salmon ten to twenty- five pounds in weight protection with provision made to permit @saimon to reach the head waters of the river, there is now to doubt that noreason the Hudson will become as important a stream in this respect as is the in 1— — A Sensible Dog.

Yesterday morning the first 200 bars were weighed, but all were found correct, and be- youd an occasion al test the stamp was after- ward taken as correct. The bars weigh about 100 pounds apiece, and in the 2,500 there is abdout $2,100,000, In ali there ig $35,000,000 in silver for the Inspector to count and enough old to make about $50,000,000 in all. Most of he metal is in bars, but there are several million dollars in silver coin to be handled and this also will be counted by weight. The sweepings of the institution forthe past year are now being assayed, after which they will be sold tothe highest bidder. In former oars as much as $8,000 has been ob- tained from the sweepings of the local Mint and they will surely be up tothe standard this year. At least so say experts on Mint sweepings. : ABE BUNTER. A Man With a Head as Hard as a Chop- ping Block. From the Springfield Republican. The day wecelebrate is thought to have been the 108d birthday of Abram Parsons, better and more widely known as Abe Bunter, one of those famous characters of Williamstown known to every living gradu- ate of Williams College. Abe“ probably had the hardest head in world. How he found this out is not re- corded, but he early discovered that in but- ting he had no equal, andhe madethe most ofthe discovery. Plank which it was de- sirable to split Abe would sever by takin the heaviest board in his two hands an splitting on his cranium, Tradition has it that Bunter once broke a grindstone into splinters, and twenty years ago there were venerable and trustworthy citizens of WI liamstown who vouched forthe feat. As his power became known, the students and NN of the village would bribe him to test t. A cheese would be putina bag and Abe told that he could have the cheese if he would break it by bunting. This proved so easy thata thin grindstone was substituted for the cheese in the bag and Bunter shivered the stone with comparative ease. He claims to have killed sheep with his head and even to have battled with bulls inthis way. Ia sober truth, it may be said that those who knew Abe in dis prime would hesitate about backing the bull with money in such a contest. Although Abe has lived beyond the century, he is much more lively than many balf his age. Only yesterday he walked over amile and attended a circus after which he gave several exhibitions o dancing. In truth, Abe’s skulis so remark- able that it has excited the interest of scien- tino men, and when the old man gets through with it it is to go to Wiillams College, under a contract signed and sealed. Meanwhile it looks as if it might be long before Abe carries out his part of the arrangement, for he says he hopes to live a long time yet, He Wanted Coffee. From the Texas Siftings.

A Cow Arouses the Wrath of a Steer and Then Esoapes From Ita Results. From the Popular Scieace Monthly. Acowand a steer—the latter 20r 8 years old—were the only occupants of the barn- yard where the occurrence took place, writes Allen Pringle. A baiting of hay was put out to them, the cow taking possession. The steer wished to sbare it, but the cow, like some higher animals, was selfish and was bent on taking the whole of it, and as often as he would maneuver around from side to sideto get a bite she would drive him off at the point of her horn. The steer was so persistent that at last the old cow’s pa- tience ve way and, taking a determined and vicious charge on him, punished him severely, though he was her own offspring. The steer felt badly hurt, not only in body, but evidently in mind as well, and imimedal- ately started out of the yard and off down the lane toward the pasture where were the rest of the stock, bellowing veugenance at every step in a language which was unmistakable to the bystanders and which the mother well understood, as she ceased eating and listened intently to the threatenings of what was to come. When these died away in the distance she resumed her ration, but with evident ap- prehension. In duetimethe steer was seen returning, bringing with him a companion larger and stronger than himself. As they approached the rumblings of rage and re- venge could be again heard, which grew louder as they came nearer. The cow loos in the situation at once and was now terror- stricken. As herassallants rushed intothe yard she dodged them and rushed out at life- and-death speed and away toward the rest of the stock in the feld, with her pursuers close on her track.

Wasuinoron, D. O., Aug. 1.—Deputy Oom- missioner Bell is reported in a m@rning paver as having made an extraordinary comment on the dispatch from Rome, O., in regard to tho dropping from the pension rolls of an old man named J. F. L. Reed, 8 years of age, a former member of Col. R. G.

Hereplied: ‘‘I was incorrect- ly reported. I used no such language. In answer to questions by the reporter as to what would be the effect upon the soldier's pension ifhe had really become insane, I said that if this were true the pension would not be taken away from him or reduced, for he would be entitled to $12 a month for in- sanity, evenif he had no other disability. This dispatch from Rome, O., says Reed is 8 years ot age. This iserroneous. His papers show him to be 60 years of age. If he had been 83 or even 75 his pension would not have Deen suspended for the reason that Judge Lochren has ruled that where soldiers who are pensioned ander the act of June 27, 1880, are 7% years ot age their pensions shall not be disturbed even by suspension.“ ILLINOIS POSTMASTERS.

SAR Francrsco,Cal., Aug. 1.—Authentic ad- vices received here state that Minister Blount has determined to turn over matters in Hawali, as far as United States interests are concerned, to Commodore Skerrett of the Boston, and he will sail for the United States on the 6th inst., without waiting for the ap- pointment of his successor. Mr. Blount may, therefore, be expected to arrive at San Francisco about Aug. 12. Meantime, his report, which has been matied bythe steamer Oceanic, will have ———.— im and, by the time the Special sommissioner and inister arrives u the Kast, the President and Secretary Gresham will have had ful) opportunity to carefully consider its contents. The intimation that Mr. Blount had relinquished his mission be- cause be resented his appointment as suc- cessor to Minister Stevens does not appear to be borne out by the facts. T appointment followed Mr. Blount’s arrival Honolulu asa natural and neces- — feature of the work placed in nis hands, and the Minister’s reason for returning to the United States is his desire to give atten- tion to his personal affairs, which are much in need of careful handling, and the fact that he has already completed the important part of the work added to him justifies him in returning to his home. In this connection it may be stated that the scope of this work was limited to the collection and collation ofthe actual facts r the existing political situation in Hawall, It was not lated that he should recommend or a protectorate, or should endeavor to restore the monarchy. He was tofiearn all the facts, to ascertain as nearly as he could in the ab- sence ofa 472 vote, which it is not with. in his power to secure, the exact strength of the annexation sentiment on the islands, for the Administration has taken the position that it would not accord with Republican ideas that a different form of government“ reed should be fo upon a majority of the Hawalian people against their desires. But he was not empowered to interfere in the affairs of the provisional Government fur- ther than was necessary to protect American interests, nor was he charged to make any recommendations, and to the President ana secretary of State was left the decision as to the future relations of Hawali to the United States, Mr. Blount’s report forming the basis for that decision. BANKS AND BONDED WHISKY. Wasnhinotor, D. C., Aug. 1.—The visit to Washington of Thomas H. Shirley of Louis- ville in behalf of the Western banks who are carrying loans upon whisky in bond was not successiul. Mur. Shirley is a lawyer, and represents in this matter banks in Louis. ville, Cincinnati, Chicago and Pittsburg. He came to.suppiement the efforts of the Com- mittee of Distillers, which pleaded with Sec- retary Carlisle for an extension of the bonded —— to convince the re could grant their vest. Mr. Shirley based his argument for relief upon wholly different grounds. He claimed that the department could and shoulda ive the distillers and the banks which bold their paper the right to export the product until the tax was paid. In the operation of the law Mr. Shirley explained it happens that from twenty-five to sixty days between the date on which the bonded riod expires and that on which the revenue actually putthe penaity for failure to pay the tax in force; that is, the clerical labor connected with the operation requires or covers at least that period. Mr. Shirley that until the actual yment — the constitutional right of could be exercised. What he asked the Secretary to do, therefore, was io sanc- tion the exportation of whisky in bond even termination of the exact period until th hen payment was ly demanded. But Mr. Shirley was more successful than the distiliers had been and he has gone to New York to try to raise the amount of money necessary to ro- lieve the distiliers and banks. ‘ihe whisky upon which tax will be aue ina few days is that which went fato bond in 1890 and a large sum of money will be necessary to release it.

The feeling in the wheat market was very much better to-day than it was yesterday. Almost immediately after the opening of call cash wheat rose to 64% cents, an ad- Vance of 2 cents a bushel. September also to sse and buyers were plenty, while sellers were few. The feeling of strength was largely due to heavy orders from abroad and to the fact that New York stocks were advancing all along the line. Europe is profiting by the present state of affairs. Large sales of flour for export have been made, and advices from New York are to the effect that European capi- talists are freely buying can securities at low American capitalists who ca ready money are doing the same, and the stocks are being retired. The only weakness manifested was in pork; in this there was a phenomenal decline, from $19.50 to $9.60. This was entirely due to the news of the fatiure of five Chicago firms, and had little local effect, as there are scarcely any deals out in this city. The cause of the Chicago fallures is believed to be liquidation forced upon those who were try- ing to manipulate the market. he wheat situation is regarded as most favorabie if producers act with wisdom. A number of large dealers expressed the opin- ion that if such farmers as could afford to do so would hold their wheat, that prices would improve, but if everything should be rushed to market at once, further decline would take place. The farmer is generally regarded as the worst bear on the market. When pricesare low he rushes his wheat to some Central point. This, at the present time, when money is dificult to ob- tain, bas a pecullarly disastrous effect. A notable fact to-day was the presence of a large number of Missouri and Southern IIII- nois millers on the floor in search of the wheat which they cannot obtain in their sec- tion owing to the shortness of the crop.

SCHOOLS TROUBLES AT HALIFAX. HALIFAX, N. &., Aug. 1.—The difficulty be- tween the Halifax School Board and. Arch- bishop O’Brien over the question of owner- ship of schools for Catholic children, has assumed anew phase. Hitherto the school bulldings attended by Catholic children have been owned by the Archbishop. Now the board proposes to erect a new school for the Catholic children of the North End anu asserts the principle of the city owning all its own school buildings. The parents of the children for whom this school is to be erected have signed a docu- ment indorsing the policy and action of Archbishop O’Brien and pledging themselves not to send their children tothe new school. The result will be that the board will erect an expensive new building for which there will be no pupils, while the Archbishop will him- self employ and pay new teachers for the present North End Catholic School. REV. MULLIN’S JUBILEE. ERIz, Pa., Aug. 1.—Right Rev. B. H. Mul- lin of this diocese celebrated to-day the twenty-fifth anniversary of his elevation to the episcopacy of the Catholic Church.

Steps Being Taken by the Western Pas- senger Association to Lessen Them. New YorK, Aug. 1.— There was a meeting of the general Eastern passenger agents of the Western railways to take steps for ascer- taining how many prepaid orders for immi- grant tickets were outstanding. Chairman Caldwell of the Western Passenger Associa- tion presided, and all the lines were represented, including several transcontinental companies that have lately joined the association. The purpose of the Western Association 18 to keep check on the emigrant Dusiness and abolish big commissions. The root of the evil is in the foreign method of ticketing im- migrants. Ofcourse the agents will work for the railway that pays the biggest com- mission. Commissions of $6 to $10 have re- cently been pald on passengers from New York to St. Paul, although the authorized rate is $1.50 from New York to Chicago. It 18 this practice that the Western Association wants tostop. All the companies violated it. It is likely to be some time before they stop the practice. A revised system of commis- sions will probably be adopted, in which case the larger commissions shall be recognized not later than the end of this year. The above applies to general traffic. In case of the contracts made with Messrs. Johnson, Murrell, Murtensen, McDonnell and Broberg, on business between Chicago and the North- west, the resolutions of the general passen- ger agents provide the guaranteed commis- sion, $1.75, between Chicago and St. Paul, shall be allowed on orders issued not later than Oct. 80, and they shall not be recog- nized beyond the end of this year. At a meeting it was recommended that Chairman Caldwell would be the one to ascertain how many prepaid orders were outstanding. The purpose is to determine the amount of business comingto each road at high commissions. There seems to be no way, however, of getting the desired in- formation from the independent agents. They will not show their orders and it is natural they should exaggerate the number, 80 they may have business com- ing in for some time in the future. Itis presumed most of the compa- nies will honor these fictitious orders rather than lose the trafic. While he is here Chair- man Caldwell will havea conference with representatives of the Canadian and South- ern Pacific roads, They started out paying big commissions and wound up witha gen- eral reduction between the Atlantic and Pacific. LEASE CANCELLED. LOUISVILLE, Ky., Aug. 1.—The lease of the O., O. & Southwestern Raliroad to the New. port News & Mississippi Co. was cancelled last night.

One of the best performances given this season by the Spencer Opera c@ppany was The Gypsy Baron, which opened a weeks run last night at Unrig’s Cave. The opera itself has always been popular and the Spen- cer company was entirely at home in it. It has deen observed by the many who have deen constant attendants at the Cave that one of the notable features of the Spencer company is its versatility. While appearing to somewhat better advantage in some operas than in others, there are none that have been rendered otherwise than well. This quality of versatility is peculiarly char- acteristic of Mr. William Pruette, who ap- peared last night in the character of Sandor Barinkay, the gypsy Baron. His voice is not only true and strong, but seems incapable of fatigue. Hesang his part with great taste, and threw into it all the force which may be regarded asthe most prominent feature of his acting. His fine figure and bearing added much to the _ attractiveness of the part. May Baker as Czipra was at her best. Her voice rang out true and strong, and the nerve and spirit of her acting called out round after round of applause. arlotta Maconda, as Sam, was piquante and attractive as ever, and sang with her ac- customed musical taste and sweetness. As Count Peter Hominay, George Lyding was excellent, and Gerta Lodge made an admira- ble Mirabella. Altogether the performance was a most enjoyable one. Ihe serpentine dance of Miss Idella Grover was enthusias- tically encored. FOUGHT TO THE DEATH, Battle Between Two Enraged Bulle in a Stock Car.

In an instant he had his horns buried in the body ofthe other beast. He gored him twice, when someone, to see fair play, cut loose the Illinois beast. They jabbed each other repeatedly until both were disemboweled and the Texas beast fell dead. The lllinols brute gored and jumped on his prostrate foe until he became exhausted and expired.

An Outcome of the Unprecedented Low Price of the Cereal. Fostoria, O., Aug. 1.—A large number of farmers in this vicinity are feeding their wheat to hogs, rather than sell it atthe low prices now ruling. Hogs are quoted at from $5 to $7 a hundred, and it is estimated that a bushel of wheat properly ground and pre- pared and fed witha little other feed to give variety, will put from ffteen to twenty pounds of flesh on a hog. This being the case. the farmer can easily realize $1 a bushel for his wheat and save the trouble of hauling it to market. In one case just west of here a farmer turned 150 head of hogs into his wheat fleld, not even taking the trouble to harvest it, and itis said the porkers are do- ing finely on their new provender, FINANCIAL FAILURE, Stockholders in the World's Fair Will Get No Dividends. WoORLD’S Fam GrouNDS, CHICAGO, III., Aug. 1.—With the closing of the gates last night the first half of the ColambDian Ex posi- tion passed into history. The number of paid admissions during the month was 2,759,- 971, and the largest number of paid admis- sions registered was on July 4, when 283,278 people deposited the admission fee with the ticket sellers. The smallest number was on Sunday last, when only 8,632 paid admissions were recorded. The paidattendance for May was 1,050,037, while that of June more than doubled this figure, reaching a total of 2,675, - 118. Officials of the Fair are greatly pleased with the artistic success of the great Ex ition, but this much cannot be said of the fnaaucial end of the enterprise, The attendance has failed largely toreachthe mark it Was ex- ected toattain during the first half of the air, and es lally during the month of July. Forthis the railroads are in the main held responsible and the officials do not hesi- tate tocriticise their stubboruness and mean- ness in refusing to make a one-fare round trip at the beginning ofthe Fair. The pres- ent hard times have had much to do with the poor attendance, but the management thinks the people would have attended largely had the railroad fares been reduced. There must necessarily be a large attendance during the remaining period of the Fair if the management expects to pay its debts, and this is all they now hopetoJdo.

There seem to be grave doubts of the valid- ity of the school tax imposition, which should be dispelled before collections are made. Tun heavy female vote cast in Kansas settles the question of whether women will or will not vote if given the privilege. How will they vote, is the only question to be settled now, and that 1s rather more important than the other. If their votes put better men into office and produce better me methods in politics, they will be welcome forces at the polls. — Tue World's Falr management has suc- ceeded in stirring up an unprecedented amount of ill feeling among the foreign exhibitors by arbitrary rulings and tact- less reguiations. The free-pass question comes to add to the bitterness aroused by the Thatcher awards blunder, which is still rankling in the breasts of the foreign- ere. A mitigation of theexcessive bureau- cratic spirit prevailing would have a good effect. — COMMISSIONER BELL proposes to show that more lawis not necessary until the inadequacy of that already on the books is proved by thorough enforcement. The trouble heretofore has been, not in the law, butin the officials having its admin- istration in charge. If Mr. Bell succeeds in his crusade against unlicensed dram- shops, he will demonstrate the usefulness of his office and his own great worth asa public servant. — WHEN three girls who had been arrested in Louisville for smoking cigarettes on the street were brought before Judge Buckley of the City Court he promptly dismissed the case on the excellent ground that smoking on the street is not a violation of law. He failed, however, to do his whole duty in the matter. He should have com- mitted the policeman who arrested them to an asylum for imbeciles. A policeman who does not know the code of etiquette from the code of laws should not be at large. — . — — — THE SILVER CONVENTION. The friends of free silver coinage will blunder fatally at Chicago if they take a stand which plainly proclaims silver mon- ometallism as the end they are seeking. Bi-metallic free coinage on a ratio insur- ing parity of intrinsic value, or a close approximation thereto, is doubtless the desideratum of a great majority of people in all sections of the country. They cling to the hope that its attainment is practi- cable. When convinced that it is not at- tainable, and that they have to accept a monometallic standard, many of the hon- est and sincere bi-metallists will side with the powerful interests demanding the gold standard in preference to the fluctuating and now rapidly depreciating silver stand- ard. This choice between two extremes of monometallism will be forced upon the country, and the issue presented will be whether the present silver dollar shall be the standard, with gold demonetized and converted into a mere commodity, or the present gold dollar shall be the standard with silver put on the basis of a mere com- modity, if the convention meeting at Chi- cago to-day shall succeed in committing the friends of silver to an unyielding ad- hesion to free coinage on the ratio of 1 to 16. No such free coinage law can be passed over the President's veto. If passed it would instantly demonetize and send to the melting pot every dollar of our 5700, 000,000 of gold coin, contracting our cur- rency that much with all the disastrous consequences of such a contraction. No man will coin a lump of gold into $16 when that amount of gold bullion can be exchanged for §20 to §24 in silver legal tender dollars. Moreover many honest bi-metallists would see in such a coinage revolution nothing but a disgraceful trick of repudia- tion, an effort to scale down all private debts and all Federal, State and corpora- tion bonds. Probably the most numerous and sincere of the bi-metallists are those who want honest bi-metallism—free coin- age for silver and gold on a ratio that would give us, not only intrinsic parity in our coins, but a fair adjustment of all pecuniary obligations, securing the credi- tor payment in money as good as he lent but no better, and requiring the debtor to pay dollars of no greater or less purchas- ing power than was contemplated in his note or bond. This sort of adjustment implies a com- mission of actuaries and expert statisticians to compare the purchasing power of un- coined gold and silver with the market prices of allthe great staples in the mar- kets of the world for the last forty years, so as to ascertain how much of the change in the intrinsic ratio of the two money metals is due to the depreciation of the one and how much to the appreciation of the other. With this knowledge it would be easy to extract the value gained by the appreciation of the metal in one coin and to supply the value lost by the depreciation of the metal in the other, and in this way fix a new ratio of bi- metallic free coinage on a basis of in- trinsic parity and equitable payment ef all debts, public and private. > The masses would favor such an adjust- ment by an overwhelming majority. ‘There is no reason to believe President Cleveland. Sitges ae een 4 ‘ya : * 17 we, J eee 5 Se ‘ | te 8 2 * W 4 3 r — 2 * . ate que 9 would be stronger than on any other ground. But the extremists seem likely to control both sides of this ight and to give the country no choice but between the single gold standard, rapidly appreciating as it is, and the single silver standard, rapidly de- preciating under the hostility of all the great commercial } gations, FUGILISM 4 5 A barzrr VALVE. The Parliamentary pugilists at West- minster having exchanged ‘‘regrets’’ and mutual assurances of distinguished con- sideration (Pickwickian), the incident is declared closed. It will not be reopened until some wal bred Tory or some hot- headed lover of liberty loses his temper and precipitates another row. The most curious feature of this curious affair is the affectation of profound grief over the loss of dignity suffered by the House. If reports wereswallowed without a seasoning of skepticism we should think that the whole British nation was weeping over the ‘‘disgrace.’’ To plain people, however, whose judg- ment is not clouded by tradition, the real regrettable feature in the affair is that Dr. Tanner did not get past the Sergeant-at- Arms and take part in the fight. only solicitude at the present moment is concerning the condition of Col. Saunder- son’sblack eye. The fact is such exhibi- tions of bad temper are signs of safety. As long as Col. Saunderson contents himself with his fists he will not care to use the pistol or Gatling gun in behalf ot his Ulster con- stituents. And while the Irish members give vent to their fury in parliamentary brawls they will not rebel or hatch dyna- mite plot Strong feeling must utter itself, it not by war, by pugilistic en- counters, and preferable. As soon asithe British get used to these festal occasions and discover that they do not betoken a subversion of the social | order they will recognize their value as safety valves and quit shedding crocodile tears over lost dignity and traditions of pomp. LAW-ABIDING SUFFERERS. One of the most significant incidents of the break-down of Colorado industries is the order generally maintained — good among the unfortunate workingmen Who suffer the sharpest from evils not of their own creation. They have no reason to be satisfied with the way the world of finance has been managed and no doubt think they have been wronged either by the selfish greed of speculators or through the ignorance of legislators. A great wrong has been committed and these men cannot be blamed if they bitterly resent it. Starving men are prone to resort to nature’s way to relieve their sufferings and avenge their wrongs, but the tramp- ing Coloradoans have adopted a milder and better course. 1 Their behavior at this juncture indicates a degree of self-control and sound judg- ment with which they have been seldom credited. Distrust of the plain people dis- tinguished the old Federalists ‘and is still rife among the party’s successors. Only a few months ago Senator Hoarof Massa- chusetts gave voice to this distrust when he declared that the people, the mass, were incapable of self-government and must be guided and controlled by the wiser, better and more learned members of society. This belief was never entertained by any who believed in Democratic ingtitutions, but it has been strengthened of late years among others by the reckless violence so often displayed during strikes and lock- outs. The good behavior of these hapless searchers for food in a land overflowing with plenty is, therefore, a most welcome indication that Americans, even while suf- fering the most grievous wrongs, still re- spect the law and are willing to submit to temporary hardship rather than set aside that which is the strongest guarantee of their ultimate well being. Men like these have the legal fiber and may be trusted with as much . as they can get. TEN-DOLLAB “IMMIGRANTS. An Eastern contemporary is much worked up overthe continued influx into this country of what it is pleased to call the $10-immigrant.’’ This newspaper finds occasion for pro- found sorrow in the fact that many thou- sands of immigrants with less than $100 each have been brought into this country duringthe past year. It has nothing to say against the moral character of these poor men who came to make homes for them- selves ina new country nor ot their will- ingness and ability to work. The ground of its plaint is that these immigrants take the work and wages that belong to Ameri- can workmen and therefore according to its view their need to work, willingness to work and ability to work are detriments. This is a queer view of immigration which has become too common under the influence of restrictive and monopoly- creating legislation. It is a false view founded upon a pernicious system of in- dustrial operation. Under fair conditions of industry and trade every able-bodied worker is an addition to the strength, the wealth-producing forces of the country. He isthe creator of wealth whether he works it from the soil or makes it in the shop. Consumption by itself is nota benefit. The consumer is desirable only in so far as he contribute to production. When we draw the industrious 510 immigrant from the Old World we sap R aac 3 N ¥ 2 1 ee * 8 . — P — n 1 — has built cities devel- oped the resources which render us the strongest and nant oepe: people on earth. It has ed bone, sinew and muscle for our may — development. It has produced the burplu which we have exchanged for the wealth ot ‘Europe. It supplied in the Nation“ crisis the con- quering strength of the Union. We do hot want the idle consumer, rich or poor, the disabled or the vicious. All of these are burdens on the country. But every honest man willing and able to work whether he has $10 or 10 cents is a valuable gain. The most senseless and unjust restriction that could be put upon immigration would be a money restriction, — . — — — No PART of the country seems to be free from the World’s Fair tramp who is about the worst fakir of this year of jubilee.

These fakirs are lucky if they work their board and lodging from kind hearted but credulous people and keep their photo- graphs from being confiscated for the rogues’ gallery. _ — _ n Mr. TALMAGE must be highly delighted with the headlines given his sermon on Jephthah dy that delicately wsthetic daily journal, the Cincinnati Enquirer, These headlines thus appear: Jeph— The Old Freebooter—At an | Early Age He Was Forced to Rough It—He Held Up the End of His String in Great Shape - And Soon Sewed Upthe Games of Twenty Citles—On His Return From Victory He Kept a Promise—He Must Sacrifice the First Person Seen in His Door—He Looks—Holy Horrors— It is His Fatr Daughter—But Jephthah Was a | Man of His Word, and the Beautiful Young Girl Was Slain."* Mr. Talmage could scarce- ly be more pleased with this display if he had written the headlines himself, A JOYOUS social gathering in Louisville so disturbed the bull dogs ofa gentleman living near that he went over and demanded a ces- sation of the joy and whipped one of the so- ciety young men who came out to talk with him. This was all very unpleasant. A citi. zen who keeps bull dogs should rather move into a quiet neighborhood than to get into fights tor them even though he may always be victor. - = THE brotherhood of man seems now to be fully established. The Rev. Mr. Green of Fort Dodge invited the men of Forepaugh’s |circus to attend his sermon. They went. | Then the circus men invited Bro. Green to the circus, and Bro. Green went. If this isn’t peace and good will, what 1s it? Tne President of the Indianapolis National Bank borrowed heavily from it to keepupthe glue works and curled hair works owned by his sons. Parental affection isa good thing, but Dank officials should undertake to re- member that their depositors also have boys, HAVING to provide for hungry members of bis party and the wnfortunate Colorado miners at the same time must be very trying on Mayor Walbridge. In 80 pressing an emergency he would be justified in calling in Philanthropist Butler for consultation. War if some polic@éman who has never taken an alcoholic drink should have to go up toa bar and intoxicate himself merely to get information tor the enforcement of the liquor laws?

Our chapples will all have to place themselves at the mercy of the winds if this fashion should reappear. ALAS! the hardships that our bebbies know!

So THE man who built the first street car is dead.

There is no blood in that, AS EVERY member of Congress has a plan to release the country, why should there be further doubt in any quarter? Ir the French Admiral at Bangkok 16 makinga mistake, it must be remembered that to err is Humann. Ir the Colorado miners were sh ipbuilders, they might go to work on Secretary Her- bert’s new ships, THERE are thirteen ships in Admiral Humann’s squadron. This is unlucky for Siam. A Specimen Bank Failure. From the Chieago Record. The failure of the Mitchell Bank at Mil- waukee is an example ofthe dominating folly ot the times. The bank is not insolv- ent. Itcan pay every dollar it owes out of its Own corporation resources, and as much more, if it were required, might be obtained on account of the stockholders’ HMabilities. The closing of the bank was not due to a lack of resources, Its collapse was brought about by asudden demand of hitherto well-satisfied Gepositors for their money. The demand was swift and impetuous, and left no time fora realization of cash upon those assets which in ordinary. times might have been counted as good as money. It is not apparant thatthe bank’s business has been badly or even carelessly managed. It is possible that the most rigid system of banking pursued without deviation would not have prevented the collapse. 4 Public Benefacter. From the Phiade!phia Record.

Senator Quay is quite as little disposed as Representative Dalzell to jond countenance to the alarmists who eagerly attribute the existing financial troubles to gloomy antict- pations of tariff revision. In the interview with the Senator in yester@ay’s Record he was asked what he thought of the effect of pros - pective tariff changes on the financial situa- tion, and he sententiously observed: Tue time for the tariff scare was just after Cleve. land was elected; but prices went up after his election, not down. The trouble fs in the banks, rather than in the factortes. MEN OF MARE WALTER BESANT, in a London Queen“ article, locates Central Park in Massachu- setts.

County Treasurer John Aa Doran says that last Saturday, as he was 4 leaving his office to deposit $10,740 in the 3 bank, he noticed a stranger, whom he had geen banging around and peering into his office for several days previous, signal another stranger ina buggy. The latter, he gays, accosted him and asked him to drive down towp, and, becoming suspicious, he boarded a street car which was passing by. Had Doran been enticed into the bugay he would have been at the mercy ofthe robbers. Itisthought that these men and the ones who robbed the express wagon are the same. BRAINED WIFE AND CHILDREN.

It's WATKINS’ MEN WILL PLAY THIRTY GAMES BEFORE THEY RETURN. — :C— Buckley's Return Will Strengthen the Team Materislly ~— 5% Augustine Shipped to Chicago—Arrivals at the Fair Grounds—Corrigan Anxious to Win the Futurity. This afternoon will be the last opportunity local enthusiasts will have to witnessa base ball game until Sept. 10, when the Browns will return home from their Eastern trip and wind up the season, commencing with a three-game series with Brooklyn and closing with Boston, Sept. 80. The team has played well at bome, and if they can only do as well abread, the local fans will be satisfied. With three such pitchers as Breitenstein, Gleason and Ciarkson, allof whom are twirling win- ning wall, this ddes not appear so hard; and the addition of Dick Buckley, who is slated to join the team at Cincinnati next Sunday, oughi to have a most strengthening effect onthe work of the boys. Notwith- standing the splending catching of Peitz, who has developed into one of the best back- stopson the diamond to-day, the club has missed Buckley. Dick is one of the headiest catchers ever seen behind the bat and this is just the kind of acatcher Breitenstein and Clarkson, especially the latter, need to steady them and helpthem along in a close game. Buckley, on account of his long ex- perience, knows the weak pointsof most batsmen andis quick to perceive those of any player, so that he can coach young pitchers and make them much more effective than a less experienced man can. Be- sides he is a power at the bat. With Buckley back again, Peitz can be played at short until Shugart is in condition to do himself justice. The ex-Pittsburger has not been in shape since he joined the club and his ragged fielding at critical periods has had much to do with the loss of a number of games. The club will open its tour at Louisville Thursday, where they play the Colonels three games. PITTSBURG PIE FOR THE BROWNS. Pittsburg started off well enough yesterday but after the Browns warmed up Bucken- berger’s team did not figure to any great ex- tent in yesterday’s game. Brietenstien pitched his usual strong game and when hits would have counted, the Smoky City sliuggers were unable make them off his delivery. Gumdert was batted. Cooley and Brodie’s stick work and Pietz’s all around playing were the features of the game. The summary: St. Louis 11, Pittsdurg 4. Base hits—St. Louis 18, Pitts- —. 10. Errors—St. Louis 8, Pittsburg i. Batteries—St. Louis, Breitenstein and Piet a; Pittsburg, Gumbert and snyder. PHILADELPHIA BASE BALL MAD. **Philadeiphia has been base ball mad, remarked Umpire Charley Snyder the other day. The Washingtons played there to three tremendous crowds—over 81,000 people I think there were. Ido not think the Na- tional League willever abandon the twelve club league idea. They are doing too well— all except Louisville, and I do not think Louisville ever was or ever will be a great base ball city. WINNERS AND LOSERS. At Loulsville—Cincinnnati 14, Louisville 7.

Catcher Grim has had hissalary iacreased by the Louisville claband will do most ot the catching hereafter. Treadway of the Baltimores has made more assists than any other League outfielcer. Tiernan has made the fewest. Paul Madford has the record of accepting more bases on balls tnis year than any other player in the Leacue. The Senator is a good man to leau off. The release of Ban nom has beenrecalied and Jim- mie may go in and pitch one of this afternoon's games. id Gleason savs the youngster has the making of an excellent twirler. — 1 catches without achest protector. He was knocked out twice yesterday. but pluckily finishea out the game. He will come into contact with a foul tip some day, however, that will knock him out com- pletely if he persists in not wearing a protector.

Crowley has shipped his splendid 4-year-old colt St. Augustine, an own brother to Firenzi, one of the greatest mares ever seen on the American turf, to Ohicago, where he will be started at Hawthorne in the near future. St. Augustine performed in the most consistent manner at the course across the river the past month, and demonstrated conclusively that, with the exception of Lamasney Bros.“ Service, he wag the best harse at the track. He did everything asked of him, and in such a haody manner that even his owner does not Knop gust how he is. It will pay to keep an on bim at Chicago. D. W. Kelly bas arrived at the Fair Grounds with his string of ten, {cluding Bonnie Byrd, a track scorcher at the recent Wash- ington Park meeting. A. C.

Levy has wired for stalls for his stable, which includes such ones as Bolivar Buckner and Clara Bauer. Ed Oorrigan says he will 1 send nis 2-year-old Vassai to Coney Island for the Fu- turity. The master of Hawthorne asserts that while he Goes not expect fair or courte- ous treatment down East he will send the colt if he thinks he has a chance to win. Corrigan has an ambition well developed to capture the Liverpool Grand National steeplechase. It has bren * for several years back that he has been simply walting to develop a jumper Of class enough to warrant taking him to England where only a first-class jumper can earn bracelets.

There is no question that the sport has been ex- tremely poor and tame. The Brighton Beach meeting. will come to an end next Saturday, and from that time on Monmouth Park will have practically no op- position, for Saratoga can hardly be consid- ered as a rival. The racing there has not been successful this year, the attendance and the betting being very light, both affected, doubtless, by the stringency in the money market. Next Tuesday night bas been set aside as butchers’ night at South Side Park, andon that night the Butchers’ stakes will be run. This will be a race of one mile, and the Dest horses on the track will compete for it. In- vitation cards admitting gentleman and lady will be sent out this week, and every butcher in St. Louis will be favored with one or more of _ these complimentaries. The South Side management have introduced their night racing to all sorts of people, and now they are going to show the butchers ina wholesale way what it looks like. In sending out the invitations an effort will be made not to slight a sidgle bona file butcher, and it is more than Hkely that on the night la question every butcher boy and girl in St. Louis will be seen at South Side.

New York, Aug. 1.—A cable dispatch has been received from London saying that Dick Burge of Newcastie has challenged Jack McAuliffe to fight at catch-weight in four weeks from signing articles, and for a stake of £1,000 to £2,000. McAuliffe has accepted the challenge and Charley Mitchell, on behalf of the American champion, has called on Burge and will put up the money. SMITH WON IN TWENTY-EIGHT ROUNDS. Paddy smith, Denver“ Eda’s lightweight brother, defeated George Green, Detter known as ‘‘Young Corbett,“ before the Colambia Club for a purse of $3,500 last even- ing. Smith was seconded by his brother, Joe Choynski and Dan Murphy, while Green was looked after by Jim Cordett and Billy Delaney. Smith had the best of matters from the tenth round, but was unable to finish Corbett’s protege on account of his game- ness. Inthe last round Smith knocked him down twice in succession and Green’s sec- onds threw up the sponge. Henry Baker defeated Billy Mayo easliy in six rounds, pre. vious to the inauguration of the lightweight battle. George Siler officiated as referee of both contests, which were witnessed by 4,000 sports. Paddy Smith, Green’s conqueror, is 22 years of age, a native of Birmingham, England stands 5 feet four inches and has fought at 187 pounds. He defeated Billy shannon nineteen rounds, Billy Miller (who died from injuries inflicted in the ring at the hands of Dal Hawkins) in twenty rounds, fought a ten- round draw with ‘*Frenchy’’ and was de- feated by Danny Needham. He is a boxer of the rough Birmingham school and noted more for gameness than for cleverness. He trained Jim Carroll for his meeting with McAuliffe and Spider Weir for his meet with Billy Murphy. e is of convivial habits. and Sporting Notes.

European Ports Tust Be Watched by American Health Officers. The Dtetetic and Hygienic Gazette for August will contain an article on ‘‘Cholera and Quarantine’’ by Dr. Edward O. Shakespeare of Philadelphia. Whether or not Asiatic cholera will again cross the Atlantic this summer still remains problematical, says the writer, but the persistence of the disease during the last fall and winter in Western Europe gives reason for anxiety. Past experionce teaches that in no single instance in the history ofthe disease has the epidemic completely vanished from Europe in less than four years after the time of its first arrivalon that Continent. The same experience also proves that in North Ameri- ca the greatest danger has heretofore been during the second or third year of the Euro- pean epidemic. In 1892. says Dr. Shakespeare. France stood conspicuous and alone among European nations in pursuance ye etree — and con- stantly of the policy of attempting to sup- press the truth concerning the existence of cholera. During April and May of last year and during the whole of last summer, fal and winter and the spring of this year, we know that cholera has not deen ab- sent from France. We know also that not less than twenty-six or twenty-seven of the departments ofthat republic have been visited by the epidemic, which, if we judge by the fatality of the disease and the rapidicy of death after the onset of the attack, pos- sessed as virulent a character as any of the past. Yet, not once, as far as we can re- member, dia the words ‘Asiatic cholera’ ap- pear ir any of the oficial health bulletins is- sued by the French Government or by the municipalities. ** The doctor quotes figures from the London showing that there were 704 deaths from cholera during the month of June in the southern part of Fragte; 188 of these were in Marsellles. 3 It now seems very eertain. Dr. Shakespeare asserts, that last year Hamburg was infected frst from France, instead of from Russia. Whether the cholera in France was an impor- tation from Southern Russia or was more di- rectly introduced from its original starting point in the East, the writer thinks is impos- sible of exact determination. But it Is chiefly to France that the civilized world west of Russia and Hungary must directly credit the misfortunes created by the Euro- pean epidemic thus far of 1892-6. This is what the doctor has to say about the danger of a cholera epidemic in Europe this summer: While we still have cholera in Russia, and cholera in France to threaten us this year, as we had last summer and autumn, these old seeds of the epidemic ma be materially reinforced before the end o the summer. The virulent scourge, which was recently devastating the valleys of the Tigris and Euphrates, and is rapidly advanc- ing northward towards the Black Sea and westward towards the shores of the Mediterranean, and that which carried by British ships to the Red Sea port of Mecca, is marching towards the Suez Canal may be dangerous for Europe. * °* 4 ‘*With the history of deception concerning sanitary bulletins already pointed out, it may be safely assumed that not only has cholera been far more prevalent in France last year and this tnan the offictal statistics have ad- mitted, dut also the official announcements as to present dissemination of the disease in — . are very much witbin the real auth. He expresses himself as follows concerning the probabie effect of the new Federal quarantine law: In our opinion we are in some respects in a far better situation since the passage of the national quarantine act last winter, faulty as itis, than we ever have been before to cope effectively with the danger ofan in- vasion of cholera from Europe. * * * The manner of administration of this new na- tional quarantine law is what concerns Us at this moment. We are strongly inclined to believe that the faults of this bill will be found to outweigh its advantages if there is warrant in ft fora practical substitution of a genuine quarantine at our home ports, where we have the authority, interest and facilities to enforce it, by the service ofa few marine hospital surgeons at foreign ports, under sufferance and with noactual power or au thority to enforce their orders on the & 7" hat our chief dan- if they should eee from ot igration ll immig 4 be suspended.
