O’Leary resigned on account of ill-health, due tothe altitude of Leadville, and at once set about to have his successor, Rev. Fr. Brown, recognize the debt of the parish to his sister. Fr. Brown ignored the debtaccording to the New York telegram, and Fr. O’Leary went to the Bishop with regard to the matter in the belief that Fr. Brown had made a mistake. But Bishop Matz also refused to recog- nize the debt of the Leadville parish, and would not give Fr. O’ Leary resti- tution or r of ry! kind. Th A r The Valley Aroused and a Conflict Be- tween Soldiers and Miners deem Probable—Over 1,000 Men Leave the Pits and Inaugurate a Strike Against Change in Wages—Crime News. Krwoxvy mn, Tenn., Aug. 10.—A report that geems to be well authenticated was received here at poon to-day, that a miner named Drummond was hanged by a mod of militia- ‘men near Fort Anderson. He was taken to a railway trestie near the camp and hanged at 2o’clock this morning. Last Sunday night one of the militiamen, Private Laugherty, while coming from the station at Coal Creek to the fort where the State troops are encamped was ambushed, shot and Killed by unknown men. The crime was at once laid at the door of the miners, between whom and the soldiers there is a bitter enmity, growing out of the troubles ofa year ago, when a battle was fought at Fort Anderson. Two miners, named Drummond and Elkins, were arrested On suspicion of belag implicated in Laugher- ty’s murder. It is supposed that the soldiers feared that some of the men would escape punishment, as the evidence against them is very weak and entirely circumstantial. do this morning at 2 o’clocka number of milita men took Drummond from the guard- house where he was confined and banged him without the formality of a trial. It is thought that Elkins will share the fate of his companion before morning. a All indications point to a renewal of the troubles in this region and to an open con- flict between the miners and State troops. From Jellico a dispatch has been received stating that the situation in the Coal Creek region is alarming. One thousand miners have gone out ona general strike and work is jat a stand still in all mihes except those of the Knoxville Iron Co., which work all con- victs. The cause of the strike is the action of the operators in tfying to make the men ac- cepta reduction of 20 per cent on coal dig- ging and give them alike reduction in rents and store provisions. - — — FARMERS’ FLEECED.

Bland’s Forthcoming Bill, It Is Said, Pro- vides For the Free Coinage of Silver at @ Ratio to Be Determined Later and For the Repeal of the Purchasing Clause—Bourke Gochran and the Lead- ership of the Administration Fight— Gossip. WASHINGTON, Aug.10.—Both House and sen- ate adjourned at the close of to-day’s session —the House till to-morrow and the Senate until Monday fora breathing spell, and to make some further efforts to determine **where they are at. by caucusing and pri- vate consultation. The understanding last night was that Mr. Bland would be ready to introduce into the House to-day his sfiver bill and that the Speaker had agreed to recognize him for that purpose. Mr. Bland’s bill, it is said, puts first the free coinage of silver at a ratio which is left blank to be determined later, and provides in the second section forthe repeal of the purchasing clause of the Sherman act, It has not developed thus far if Mr. Bland will attempt to carry out this arrangement. Everything is so much at sixes and sevens in the ranks of the silver men that pre-arranged plans are liable to be upset at the last mo- ment. The committee appointed by the Chairman of the House Silver Caucus yesterday arranged to meet this morning to carry out their instructions and frame a Dill and out- linea plan of campaign. Practically the bill was defined in advance by the caucus resolu- tion saving the ratio and it is this detail that must receive attention. There being no rules in the House at present, the silver men intend to get their bill in as early as possible, so as to secure whatever advantage may fol- low from being first on the list of measures before the House. Speaker Crisp and Secretary Carlisle (his Democratic predecessor inthe Speakership) were in close consultation at the Speaker’s room this morning. It was confined to the discussion of the rules to be adopted for the government of the House of Representa- tives. The conference was of two hours, dur- ation, and was a continuance of a previous consultation on the same subject began last evening. The Administration, it is said, feels the necessity of the House passing such rules as will permit speedy action on the financial question, BOURKE COCKRAN’S DENIAL. WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 10.— I have not deemed it necessary to deny the rumor be- fore,’’ said Bourke Cockran, who returned from New York this morning, when his at- tention was was called to the statement that he would lead the Administration’s fight in the House for the repeal of the Sherman act. 1 have had no consultation with President Cleveland, and represent nothing or noboay except my own congressional dis- trict. The proposition is simple, and the position of those who favor repeal is agreed upon, so that the introduction ot the bill is a mere formal matter, and will afford no op- portunity for a display of genius.’’ It has been said that you would intro- duce the repea) bill?’’ It is not i rtant that any particular rson should introduce it. I have been in avor of letting some older Representative present the bill before the House. The . osition is clear to every man on our side. t must provide for repeal and maintain the parity of the silver certificates and colns with other currency. For this measure Henderson cut King severe offer . breast and arm. The wounded man was conveyed to the City Hospitaland his assall- ant locked up. SUES FOR SLANDER. Mrs. Fannie Moore Wants Damages for the Accusations Made Against Her. Fannie Moore wants $2,000 of Rebecca De- stell, She alleges that Rebecca accused her once in the presence of others of keeping a house of ill-re- pate; anda for the second cause of action she alleges that on July 14 Rebecca complained to the Police Department that the plain- tif was keeping a disreputable house at her residence, 2184 Ada ms street, and as a consequence the house was raided that night, and the plaintiff and her sister and her niece were locked u at the First District Police Station, where the plaintiff was confined for two days, but when the case came to trial he was discharged. She wants $1,000 for this, as for the first men- tioned cause of action, making $2,00) in ail. Mrs. Moore and her sister, who lived with her, it w remembered, were raided by the lice one night and all the ladies the place taken to the station and locked up.

They were not made public nor are they... De. They were sent * houses of the highest re spondents here and Stanislaus Smentkowsk!l, living at 1248 North Twenty-first street, called at the Coroner’s office to-day and reported the death of his child Helena, aged 1 year and 8 months, who died at 10:80 o’clocK last night under some what pecullar circumstances, Smentkowski stated that the child took sick about two weeks ago, and Dr. Heyer was Called in, who stated that the child was suffering from the effects of teething. He prescribed for it, but the child did not seem to do well. Last Monday the neighbors per- suaded the parents of the child to send for another physician, aud Dr. Ji A. Krieger of 2918 Dickson was called in. He prescribed for the child, and the medicine, a solution, was given the child. After taking the medicine Smentkowski stated that the child went to sleep ana slept for fifty hours, at the end of which time it died. Dr. Krieger issueda certificate giving as the cause of death spurious hy@rocephalus, due to en- ter-coleitis. The definition is a collection of water in the head, or dropsy of the brain, A MIDWIFE IN THE CASE. A midwife also figuresin the case.

Smentkowski brought some of the | pills furnished by the midwife to the Cor- oner’s office, as also the remainder of the medicine ordered by Dr. Krieger.

I went tothe Bishop and told him what I thought about him, in a manner that perhaps made him feel uneasy. But 1 did not drawa revolver or piace one at his head. Bishop Matz himself said inthe Denver Revublican that this sensational story was a ‘piece of silly exaggeration,’ for you must know tbat this report is not new. I have no case against Bishop Matz at Rome, and our dispute over the loan will be settled. On the other hand Bishop Mats has made no complaint against me at Rome, so that you see for yourself that the so-called cablegram is a fabrication. PROBABLE LOCAL FOUNDATION. Some of Fr.

Jere Sullivan Refuses to Obey Mack- lind’s Order to Discharge Men. Superintendent of Street Cleaningand Ke- pairs William P. Macklind,in his eagerness to clear his Gepartment of all Demo- crats, ran up against a snag this morning in the person of Jere P. Sullivan, Superintendent of Excavations. After his sweeping removals of yesterday, Capt. Macklind to-day sent a list of about twenty names toe Mr. Sullivan, and told him to release them. Among the men on the list were John Walsh, M. Matowsky, Tom McDermott, Wm. McDonald and Pat Burke, all Democrats. Sullivan, after looking over the list, went to Capt. Macklindand informed him that as Superintendent of Excavations he was ap- pointed by the Street Commissioner, and felt that he was responsible to him, and not to Oa pt. Macklind, men he employed. He therefore have to comply with thisdemand until the Street Commis- sioner’s return, Maj. Murphy at present being in Chicago. Whether this act on Sul- livan’s part will bring his own post- tion in jeoparcy is a question which is being generally discussea about the hall to-day. Capt. Macklind says that he is by no means through with his work of reducing the force of men under him. He is preparing another list which, he says, he will have ready by to-morrow or Satur- day. Michael Breen, a superintendent of excavation, who also did special work as a Street Sprinkling Inspector, was let out this morning. Assistant Street Com- missioner Rauschenbach took a hand yester- day and suspended John Behan, a street sprinkling inspector, until Maj. Murphy’s return. Behan clained that he has especial orders to reportto the Street Commissioner only, and r. Rauschenbach wanted him to do other work or consider himself suspended, or of the ee Mt. Carmel. ' He arrived inthe city on Tuesday night, but his presence did not become known until yesterduy. He had read the published tele- gram before the reporter arrived. He was cool and collected and commented on notaware of his thatisa mistake. The child lay for about that length of time in a semi-comatose con- dition with water on thebrain. The death of a child by that complaint has all the symptoms of morphine poisoning. The pupils contact, and no living person can tell the difference. What is the matter with Sment- kowski, is that I insisted in his paying me for seeing the child. There was somebody else doctoring the child, who, I don’t know. The midwife who was attending Mrs. Sment- kowski also, I understaud, gave it some- thing like pellets. I his they afterward denied Ihaveacopy ofthe prescription given dy meandthere is nothing in it to hurt the child. It died of what the burial certificate says it aid. and I am now anxious that the Coroner should Investigate it.

There was the same strong air of uncertainty prevailing as to the result, but many men came lato the conven- tion as ignorant of whom they were going to vote for as they were yesterday of the names of the men who were after office. It isa fact that numerous delegates came to Cincinnati entirely ignorant of the men for whom they were requested to vote, The determination of the platform makers to give free Silver the cold shoulder and come out in favor of bimetallism was some thing of a blow to the Neal men, but they are confident to-day they willcarry their man through by the second ballot at best. The Baker men, too, made no bones of de- claring their man simply cannot lose; and the Taylor men, who are popularly supposed to have no chance at all, are of the same mind regarding their candidate. Alter 9 o’clock the delegates came in 80 slowly that at 9:80 not over half were in their seats. Then they came more rapidly and after the band and the organ had taken turns at entertaining such delegates as had arrived, Chairman Crites gave three blows with his gavel, and the convention was on. Inafew words the Chairman introduced Rev. Geo. A. Thayer, who delivered a brief prayer, and at its conclusion Chairman Crites made the first formal address of the day, speaking as follows: He thanked the local committees a the citizens generally of Cincinnati, irrespeCtive of party, for the complete arrangements that had insured the convenience and accommo- dation of the convention, and urged the dele- gates to go forth after their work was done with vigilance and the determination to do battle with the common enemy until the polls Closed in November, when victory would be complete. Continuing, he said: About two months ago there was heid in the cap- tol city of this State d ratification meeting called a — ubdlican State Cohventlon, noted for its depleted 226 ations, ite total lack of enthusiasm and the wil absence of the most prominent Republicans ofthe State, many of whom not even sought the shadow of am excuse for non-attendanee, but their motives were epparenttoal!l. Liow different are the surroundings here, every one of the S08 delegates in his piece, backed by an eqeal number of sturd alternates aod surrounded by thousands of the ran and file of the * from every district and county of the State, ali united and enthusiastic for party success.

The temporary chairman was greeted with cheers as ſong and loud as those which had wel A the opening of Mr. Crites’ speech and met it at the close, Mr. Bargar’s ad- dress was as follows: We meet to-day to perform an important service in ie interests of good government.

IN BASEMENT SALESROOM. — U ]ũ ͤ—[ the Goverament under the rules and regulations and weights as provided by law, A lew requiring the purchase of silver for storage tends not only to burden the Government. but to depreciate bullion not coined and discredit the money ofthe Government already in circulation, and it ought to be repealed. If we should limit coinage of either meta! or change the standard of weights, the matter of coluage sbould be free up to the limitation, but the Govern- ment should never enter the market to buy meta! for coinage purposes. We should have a sound and stable curreney, founded upon a coin basis, and it 16 not necessary for us to adjust that basis to suit the governments of Europe as to the ratio between gold and sliver, or adopt a standard to sult their peculiar notions, nor is it necessary for our whole coustry to be domineered in this matter by asingle city, whose business relations and selfish interests favor the adoption of Kuropean ideas without regard to the intesest of our own country. When we fully realize that our own country can furnish all the material comforte necessary for man’s happiness, we will not be reguired to give attention to Kuropean money standards or become in this regard a follower of any mation or people. It is proper and right we should again declare In favor of tariff reform and against the so-called doctrine of taxation for the protection of individual or corporate 2 & The theory of taxation for protection to enable the employers to pay higher wages isasnare. Such a theory logically involves another, and thas is Government control and super- visien of all protective industries. If the Govern- ment collecte money by any system of taxation or assessment, or allows another to doso fora specific purpose, itis the duty of the Government to see the money dees not lodge in the pockets of employers or is stored away inthe treasury or political campaign committees’ pockets. The leading advocates of the doctrine of taxation for the protection of capital insist that the fizmancial difficulties and business depression results from an apprehension that Democratic Administration may comply with the wishes of our people expressed at the polle last fall, and remodel and reform our tariff laws so that this form of taxation may be re- duced. It ie not complimentary to the intelligence and good sense of our people te say of them that they are alarmed and stricken with business paraly- sis ase of an apprehension that part of the bur- dens of taxation may be taken from their shoul- ors, An honest man, viewing our present condition and looki industriousiy and honestiy for the ¢suse thereof, would net agree in this regard with the ad- vyocates of taxation for protection. Who can trace tne failure of any of the many banks which have been closed during the last two months toanapprehension that the tariff may be reduced? Whe can say that this apprehension had anything to do with the many assignments made by business firms or individuals of great Gnancial sagaeltv during the ear last past, or that the business depression of urope was brought about or induced by an appre- hended reduction ot taxes in our untry, or that the world’s t financial institution, the Bank of Engiand, when u inaugurated or started the stringency ia the money market that was felt ail over our country and continues to exist, had in view or was influenced or affected by the question of our tariff reform T e must pot, shall not be deceived on this en. emocratic party, ever true op te pied e to the people, must perform the work of tariff reform and witheut injury to any legitimate business re- duce taxation te am amount lont for the wants of the Government economically administered. The remainder of Ohairman Bargar’s speech dealt with Ohio State matters the pension rolls and regulation of private cor- porations being the main points touched upon. At the conclusion of Mr. Bargar’s address the Committee on Credentials reported. The only contest of any consequeuce was that m Ohillicothe, where Neal’s delegation had been attacked. The committee reported in favor of 8 Neal’s men and a deafen- ing outburst followed, over delegates springs to their feetand yelling loud and ons or the men from Chillicothe.

We demand that an end be put to such robbery of the taxpayers. 6. The Democratic party expresses its confidence in the ability of Hon.

True to the peeple and watchful of their interest he will en- force honest and economical methods in the conduct of pubite affairs and secure to every section of the country the blessing of good government. The coinage plank of the Chicago platform of June 22, 1892, referred to is as follows: We denounce the Republican legislation known as the Sherman act of 1899; asa cowardly makeshift fraught with possibilities of danger in the future, which should make all of its supporters as well as its author anxtous for its speedy repeal. We hold to the use of both gold and silver as the standard money of the country and tothecoinage of both gold and silver without discriminating against eitherapetal or eharge for mintage, but the dollar anit of coinage of th metals must be of equal intrinsic and exchangeable value or be ad- justed through internationai agreement or by such safeguards of legislation as shall insure the maintenance of the parity of the two metals and the equal power of every dollar at all times in the markets and in the payment of debts: and we de- mand that all paper currency be kept at par with anc redeemabie insuch coin. We insist upon this policy as ep necessary for the protection of the farmersand laboring Classes, the first and most de- fenceless victims ef unstable money anda fiuctuat- ing currency. After the reading of the platform, Judge Ermiston of Hamilton County jumped to his feet. ‘*I move the adoption of the report, A dogen delegates shouted ‘‘Seconded.’’ ‘The chairman rushed it to a vote and it was passed in a hurry, the convention standing and giving a chorus ofayes. Only one No was heard. Then the chairman said that the counties would be allowed to present names for the governorship nomination. James PF.

While the enthusiastic howls of Neal’s fol- lowers were yet ringing through the hall, the benign countenance of Willlam A.

AN EXCITING TILT BETWEEN “THE JUSTICE AND ATTORNEY. Bogarda’s Representative Wanted an Order Made at Once and Justice Pol- lard Rebukei His Impstience—Mr. Garesche Refused to Leave the Court Until the Order Was Made. In Justice W. J. Pollard’s court this morn- ing several cases in which; the defendants are Milo T. Bogard, ex-Secretary of the Western Union Building and Loan 48 sociations, and John H. Vette, money lender, to whom Bogard gave deeds and chattel mortgages on his property just before the public announcement of bis failure, came uponthe docket for hearing. The litigation is interesting as throwing light upon the relationship of Bogard and Vette in connection with Bogard's hasty transfer of his property. Christian Heitz, some time before the West- ern Union excitement, became uneasy about some papers which he had left in the hands of Bogard after the transactién ofa real es tate deal between the two and des- manded that the papers be restored to him, Bogard refused to give them up, and Hels replevined. Judgment was given for the plaintif® in the sum of $10 and cost and execution was issued but some of the papers were never recovered. The Con- stable then levied on some of the property of Bogard atthe Ninth street building and also proceeded against the Chattel Loan Co. of which John H. Vette is President as garnishee, thus raising the question of the regularity of Vette’s claim. The answer of the Ohattel Loan Co. or Vette as its head and front, was that it had no property of the defendant, Milo T. Bogard, in its possession at the time of the garaish- ment, and thereupon Heitz filed a denigi of answer, in which is averred the garnishee $10,000 j of Bogarda’s prope in its possession and that Bogard and the garnishee entered into collusion to defraud plaintif? Heits and other creditors. The de- Nialalso avers that the garnishee fille and fraudulently sold the property althou aware of the prior levy and attachment. William A. Krift, the plaintiff in another action, had entrusted to rd $1,000, and after a hard struggle got all except $400 of it back by threatening to have Bogard arrested for embezziement if he did not disgorge. Bogard claimed $100 of the $400 remaining in his bands for fees and Kreft brought an attachment suit for the 500. The complaint set forth that the plaintick had a just. claim against the @efendant, and that he had reason to lieve that the defendant was a bout to fraudulently convey or assign his property and effects so as to rand de- lay his creditors. . As the other case, it was found necessary to proceed against the Chattel Loan Co., practically Answer was hela no eae erty of the defendant, and the plaintiff ou that Bogard and th William A. Kreft rst. Garesche’s first move was Jobn H. Vette, as garnishee. again made that the garnishee Kreft filed a denial in which he Eros need the answer false, and, like Heitg 9 e garnishee had en into collusion.

The delegates and officers were somewhat slow in assembling, owing to the fatigues of the day previous. It was con- siderabiy after 10 o’clock, the hour set, bo- fore the hall began to fill up. Outside in the main entryway the trade ex- hibits were all in good running order, and thosein charge were kept busy operating their skylights and ventilators and their sprinklers and coolers. About 11 o’clock President Smith called the meeting to order and Secretary Stewart called off numerous letters for members of the society. The report of the Chrysanthe- mum Committee, which mad8 up a pamphiet of considerable size, was announced as being ready tor any one desiring to study it. Sec- retary Stewart then read off the awards of the Committees on Exhibits. # The Secretary then read of a sample letter ofregret from the Secretary of the Horti- cultural Department of Trinity Oollege. Secretary Stewart then said that many of those in foreign countries who had been asked to come to St. Louis and then go to the Chicago had written similar letters from their various homes all of whom commended the convention most highly. OFFICERS NOMINATED. One of the principal affairs ofthis morn- ing’s meeting was the nomination of officers forthe ensuing yearand the selection ofa place for the holding of the next annual con- vention. The officers nominated to-day will not be voted upon for election until to-mor- row, The city chosen for the next conven- tion was Atlantic City, N.

Anthony of Chi- cago, John Burke of Philadelphia. M. A. Hunt, whois the present treasurer of the society, took the floor and ina well- turned speech declined the honor of stand- ing asa candidate for President, feeling he had had honors enough and that they should be passed around. The other nominations made were: Vice-President, Robert Kift of Philadelphia. Secretary,Wm. J. Stewart of Boston, Mass. Mr. Hunt, who had just declined the nom- ination of President, was nominated for Treasurer with only one dissenting vote. * R. F. Tesson of St. Louis, then read anes say on the Science and Facts of Successful Rose Growing. Mr. Tésson’s paper was a clear explanation——oT his experience in raising tea roses and the trials and difficulties eneountered by him. The paper was discussed by the delegates at some length. Mr. Tesson’s paper was followed by an address on behalf of the American Rose Society urging the hearty encouragement of that organization. After the morning session the Ross Society held a meeting, as did also the State delega- tions forthe purpose of electing State Vice- Presidents. : VISIT BHAW'S GARDEN. After the morning meeting and its discus- sions the society tookan afternoon off and climbed into carriages and inspected Shaw’s Garden under the guidance ofthe directors of the institution.

Health Commissioner Homan is very un- easy over the delay of the Water and Sewer Departments to cake up and push to comple- tion the work of laying the necessary water and sewer pipes to drain Harlem and Gin Grass Creek into the Ferry street sewer. Resolutions have been passed urging she necessity of completing this work before the fall, when on account of the low stage of the water these creeks drain iato the river at points very near the iniet pipes to the Water- works. The Water Commissioner allegesthat he sent requisitions for the 800 2 of twenty - inch pipe, for bollers, etc., for the pumping plant to the Supply Commissioner's office on Aug. land 2, but he has not yet heard of the contracts for furnishing them being let. He thinks it will probably ke about ten days to have them cast and then it will re- qu retwoorthree weeks to lay them after they are put on the ground. At the Suppiy Com missioner’s office the de- lay in letting the contracts was attributed to the fact that only a few bids had been received and the Commissioner was waitin for other proposed bidders. As nearly all o this pipe furnished in St. Louis comes either through Shickie, Harrison & Howard, from the Bessemer Works or from the Addiston Pipe Works at Cincinnati the delay seems to be upreasonable. When the ordinance was passed appropriating $30,000 for this work an emergency clause was added to it so as to put it in effect at once. The Sewer Commissioner claims there is no delay on his part and that ne will be ready for the connection at any time, The Smoke Inspectors. There has been any amount of pressure broughtto bear on Mayor Walbridge and President McMath of the Board of Public Im- provements to appoint the three smoke in- spectors, which the new ordinance calls for. The Mayor explains that this will not be done untl the members of the Smoke Commission have made their final report. It willbe remembered that the re- port of the Smoke Commission, as submitted tothe Boardof Public Improvements, was approved by that body and the Mayorin all respects except as to two exceptions recommended by the These were Municipal Electric light and Power Co.’s plant at Nineteenth and Locust streets and the other was the Glendale Zinc Works at Carondelet. The commission is supposed to make a supplementary report, and although the new law goesinto effecton Aug. 17, it will be necessary to have this report approved before the smoke inspectors are appointed. THE STRIKING MINERS. commission, Nothing cf an Uncommon Nature Has Transpired in Vernon County. NEVADA, Mo., Aug. 10.—nverything is quiet at the various Vernon County coal mines. No miners went out yesterday in obedience to the call made Saturday by the Executive Board of the United Mine-workers of Amer- ica, but instead those that are out are trying to secure employment, either in the mines at other work. Shaft No. 7 has 772 men employed. The shaft can only work 750 men under ground, and they will have a full force by next Saturday. The strikers held a meeting yesterday in the grove in Vernon County, but its object is unknown unless it was to adopt some plan to get non union men out. It is rumored that a committee named at their secret meeting are to demand that the operators and super- intendents consider the re-employment of the discharged miners, and if refused they are to use any means in their power to en- force their demands. The entire manipulations of the strike have been the work ofa lot of Kansas agitators, aided by one Hinesof Missouri. They have been among the miners the past several days and have caused much excitement and may yet cause some of the miners to lose their lives. Thére are now about 1,200 miners at work. The Post-DIsPATCH reporter learns from dif- ferent mine operators that the men seem satisfied and they believe the strike is virtu- ally ended. CONFERENCE AT BEVIER. Macon, Mo., Aug.10.—The Bevier coal min- ers are holding a conference this morning with representatives from Ardmore, Hunts- vilie and Lexington, Theobject of the rep- resentatives is to make Bevier reconsider her determination and fallin line with the striking districts.

RAIDING FALLEN WOMEN. The Street Walkers Arrested Last Night Secure Continuances To-Day. The scarlot district was depleted to a con- siderable extent last night by the arrest of about forty women, keepers and inmates.of disreputable houses. Of late the police have received a greater number of complaints than usual of women soliciting openly on the streets. The comparative immunity women have enjoyod has made them bolder than usual, and menbave been pulled forcibly into doorways and perhaps robbed, while 1 women were jostied and in- sulted. Instructions were issued to ail officers in the Central District last night to arrest all women found soliciting on the streets or **roping’’ trom doors and windows. Sergts. Williams, Boyd and Lyons, at the head of a number of officers, raided several of the most disreputable joints. This morning the women were arraigned in the First District Police Court and secured continuances until Aug.17. Died of Poisoning. An unknown man, about @ years old. was found lying inan unconscious condition on the steps in front of 720 Market street about 12:30 o’clock this morning. He was taken to the Dispensary, where Dr. Hough worked with him for some time, but could not revive him. He was then sent to the City Hospital, and died at 40’clock this morning, Dr. Marks, Superintend- ent of the City Hospital, stated that the man showed symptoms of poisoning but that was evidently due to sickness. The men weighed about 180 pounds, had ion curly sandy hairand mustache, was dre lu a dark coat and vest, corduroy pants, straw hat and wore laced shoes. A post-mortem examination made by Dr. Frank at the City hospital developed that the man had died of morphine poisoning, and it is supposea that he must have taken the drug witb suicidal intent.

The Committee’s Regrete in Accepting Mr. Thomas’ Request to Be Freed From His Contract—Louisianians Oelebrat- ing—Decoration of Their Building and the Grand Parade—World’s Fair News. WoRLD’s Farr Grounps, Aug. 10.—The ex- pected happened last night when the Execu- tive Committee of the Board of Directors ac- cepted Theoaore Thomas’ resignation as Musical Director of the Fair. It was also de- cided to disband Mr. Thomas’ orchestra of 1l4 pieces. **It is the intention,“ said one of the mem- bers of the Executive Committee, to en- gage several bands and locate them about the grounds. Popular music will be played, as the public has expressed itself as opposed to the high class selections which Mr. Thomas insisted on giving; besides this, Mr. Thomas’ release will greatly decrease the expenses of the Fair.’’ The Executive Committee ordered the Council of Administration to cancel the con- tracts ofthe members of the orchestra as soon as possible, and this week will probably be the last that Wagnerian music is played atthe Fair. In accepting the resignation ot Mr. Thomas, the committee adopted a reso- lation that it is not unmindful of the work be has done and regrets the financial condition of the Fuir makes it necessary to lose him. Festivaland Music Halis will probably be used for band concerts on rainy days and for special concerts. This was the biggest day of the fair to citizens of Louisiana. Early this morning they began to come and before noon half the people inthe locality of the State Building wore badges on which was the inscription: **Louisiana Day, Aug. 10.““ It was the day setapart for the formal dedicationof the State Bullding, by the State Commission, and more than 1,000 sons and daughters of the State by the gulf, fixed the date of their attendance at the Exposition in August that they might swell the audience which listened to the speeches of Louisiana Senators. This morning the building was closed and florists and deco- rators transformed the interior into a lovely place.

Lorpox, Aug. 10.—An election has been held in the Parliamentary division of West Mayo to fill the vacancy in the House of Com - mons caused by the appointment of John Deasey (anti-Parnellite) to the stewardship of Her Majesty’s three Ohiltern Hundreds. At the last election Mr. Deasey was returned by a majority of 2,847and the district isso strongly anti-Parneliite that when a vacancy occurred the Parnellites refused to nominate a candidate. The anti-Parnellites placed Dr. Robert Ambrose in nomination and this was tantamount to election. The Sheriff, there- fore, had only to ~ mee gy Sigg the formalities of the law and declare Dr. Ambrose elected. Mr. Deasey, the former incumbent of the seat, was recently convicted of common as- sault upon a young servant girl who worked in the house in which he lodged in London and was fined £235. Subsequent to his con- viction he withdrew from Parliament by ac- cepting the stewardship mentioned. REDUCTION OF THE ARMY. CITY oF Muxico, Aug. 10.—The reduction of the Mexican army (decided upon by the Gov- ernment) to.the extent of 6,000 men, all privates, will involve a saving of about $90,000.

It has received the almost unani- mous approval of the commercial and financial community. Its obvious merit should insure it an effective popular sup- port. 338 Ir may be accepted as certain that cholera has appeared in New York Harbor and that the cases now on hand at Quaran- tine will be followed by others as expected immigrant ships arrive. It is said that the United States were never in better san- itary condition and thatthe plague will be kept down even if it does get a foot- hold, But we should not be overconfi- dent. Every detail should be closely watched and the efforts of the authorities should be cheerfully seconded by citizens. e A MONETAKY COMMISSION. The WORLD’s suggestion of a monetary commission to consider and report upon the whole currency question in all its phases will be offered to Congress at an early date. This plan is probably the only one which offers a good prospect of a reasonable, speedy, justand permanent solution of s question which has tormented the country for thirty years. A commission composed of trained students in economics in and out of Congress, and men of affairs who are deeply interested in concluding once for all a disquieting debate, will command the confidence of the country. Free from the disturbing influence of partisan emergencies, which so often makes acts of legislation mere truces like the Sherman law, it will carry on its deliberations with an eye single to the good of the country and the promotion of a healthy prosperity in which all parties and classes shall par- ticipate. There is good reason to believe that the report of such a commission would be, not a compromise, but a settle- ment acceptable to all. The repeal of the purchase clause of the Sherman act will leave the field clear of all vexatious practical difficulties. The sub- ject can then be considered on its merits. And as the commission will be composed of men of all shades of opinion there need be no fear that any interest will be lost sight of which has any real claim upon the country. Holding its sessions continu- ously its conclusions would be ready to present to Congress at an early date, the people meanwhile resting easy in the well warranted belief that its proposals would form the basis for comprehensive and final legislation. 8 CLEVELAND’S POWER. Mr. Bland may get the united vote of the bimetallists for a resolution favoring the repeal of the silver purchase provision and for free coinage at a ratio of ——,’’ and doubtless such a resolution would com- manda majority in both houses, though nota majority large enough to over-ride the President’s veto. But when a bill is submitted in accordance with the resolu- tion, and the ratio blank must be filled with figures, he will find the practical objec- tions to any named ratio sufficiently strong and obvious to divide the bimetallists themselves. The ratio of 1 to 16, for instance, as- sumes more than a large proportion of the honest bimetallistsconcede. It assumes that the present silver dollar is the sole unit of our currency whose purchasing power, with reference to everything ex- cept gold, is unvaried and unvarying; that the difference of value between 412, grains of standard silver and 288-10 grains of standard gold is due entirely to the appre- ciation of gold through the silver demone- tization acts of various countries; and that by providing for free coin- age at the old ratio the United States can, without the co-operation or consent of other nations, deprive gold of its increased purchasing power, and thus restore the old parity at the old ratio. Many honest bimetalliste deny each and all of these assumptions, and will, there- fore, regard such a free coinage measure ascertain to contract our currency basis ruinously by sending all our gold coin in- stantly tothe melting pot. They will not make themselves responsible for sucha disastrous contraction by voting for silver mono-metallism disguised as a bimetallic free coinage measure. On the other hand they would as strong- ly object to a ratio adjusted to the present bullion values of gold and silver, because they believe those values to be on both sides the factitious product of legislation and other temporary causes. They believe that any free coinage measure based upon a materially false ratio would sooner or later,and probably sooner than later, make the financial muddle worse than it is. By ascertaining with certainty or ap- proximately how much, if any, the gold of the gold dollar has increased over the normal unit of value in purchasing power and how much, if any, the silver of the silver dollar has fallen below that power, we might ix on a ratio which would cor- rect those divergencies and give us a gold dollar and a silver dollar of equal intrinsic A I 5 * >a 2 4 value and just alike to creditor and debto™ interests. We could present such à new coinage law with some hope thet its obvious fairness would strengthen the growing cause of “bimetallism in Burops, and secure us the co-operation of the great commercial nations in maintaining it. But without such co-operation first 48- sured, some bimetallists would still hesi- tate to commit the United States to the hazard of maintaining alone against 4 world of opposition what they regarded even as the true ratio or a very close ap- proximation to it. With the veto power and backed by nearly half of both houses of Congress in stubbornly maintaining the present gold dollar as the only honest and stable unit of value,’’ Mr. Cleveland is sure to triumph over the bimetallic majority because of the latter’s inability to vote solid on any free coinage measure,or to pass it over his veto. zp - 4 UNPROTECTED HUSBANDS. Mrs. Harriet R. Williams Strong, mem- ber of the Los Angeles Chamber of Com- merce and successful orange grower, de- clares that the life insurance companies appreciate the superior honesty of women by insuring the lives of men when wives are to be the beneficiaries and refusing to insure the lives of women for the benefit of husbands. Mrs. Strong is evidently of the opinion that ths insurance companies suspect all husbands of a desire to be rid of their wives. Mrs. Caudle used to accuse Mr. Oaudie of a wish for her immediate death, and she even charged him with taking no interest whatever in the children. It was very fortunate that Oaudle bad no policy on Mrs.Caudle’s life. Not only would Mrs. Caudle have been sacrificed, but those incomparable lectures of hers would have been cut short and the world would have been deprived of one of its most delightful literary treats. There are thousands of women, some with really honest husbands, who have re- peatedly accused their mates of wishing them to die,’’ and it may be that the in- surance companies have relied too much upon the testimony of these good wives in making up the insurance scheme. But the insurance men ought to know thatitis a trick of fortune tellers to comfort fem- inine patrons by assuring them that their husbands will die within the year. Mrs. Strong probably wishes that Mr Strong may live to be very old, but she must not reason from this that other women may not be weak in their conjugal sense of duty, and she should not place too much reliance on the insurance com- pany’sestimate. There are wicked hus- bands, to be sure, but a good deal of that comes of the carelessness with which they are selected. * One of the serious questions with which the Cleveland Administration will have to dealis the Union Pacific indebtedness, amounting to $50,000,000, which matures in 1896. Several attempts have been made to come to an understanding with the com- pany,but have been unsuccessful. The Union Pacific people now sit back and are waiting for the Government to act. To foreclose would be to put the Government in possession of a very small fragment of what is now a huge system with branches whose mileage far exceeds the line covered by the Government claim. The company is insolent andapparently thinks the Government isin sucha position that it cannot afford to resort.to extreme measures. The first mortgage ohce held was exchanged fora second for no good reason asfaras can be ascertained, and the game is practically in the hands of the men who have already made millions out ofthe easy-going Government of Uncle Sam, without giving an equivalent. The upshot of it all will probably be that the present loan will be extended for another bearing 2 per cent interest and this in turn is likely to be scaled if not entirely wiped out. The course of Congress in the past justifies this fear. oO = ~~ Tue following extract from a speech made by Mr. McKinley at Grand Rapids, Mich., in 1890, is worth reprinting to show the worth of that gentleman’s opinion on economic questions and his value as a guide, philosopher and friend of the people: What have we done? We have passed the silver bill—the best silver Dill that was ever put upon our statate books. What does it do? Itutilises every ounce, every penay- weight of the silver product of the United States. The Government buys 4,500,000 ounces every thirty days, and issues its Treasury notes for that sum, and makes them redeem- able in gold or silver, and makes them re- ceivable for debts, public and private, abso- lutely a legal tender that puts in circulation a little more than $2,000,000 every thirty days, and in addition to what is put in circulation under the old law, the $2,000,000 of coinage amoath, Then we have made this silver as good as gold, and silver to-day is neerer on an equality with gold than it has been for eighteen years; and why shouldn't they be side by side in the business of this great country? And yet he is advising the repeal of this much-praised law. Surely a man 80 ignorant of the ordinary workings of well- known economic influences is not fit to counsel the people. — TRAA plan of Senatorial nominations by popular conventions should not be adopted or rejected according to the interest of politicians. The plan should be adopted as a permanent feature, or until the people can declare themselves directly at the polls, because it is the best method known of securing the best talent for a high and honorable place.

OVER in Indiana they are not singing **Comrades.’’ It is Conrads.“ The Fruits of Thirty Years. From the Louisville Courier-Journal. Our whole fiscal system is out of order, and back of it there is scarcely a sound limb in the body politic. The banks suffer from a loss of popular confidence; the people suffer from a loss of banking credit. Very much less disparity of money values would be enough to account for this, to say nothing about the decline of the staples and the bursting of the booms, the foods in the South and the debts in the West. Everywhere un- equal burdens are imposed. A system of unjust taxation, feeding the few out of the toll of the many, hag piled up disproportion- ate wealth on the one band and widespread poverty on the other hand. The masses of workmen are no longer permitted to hew their own wood and to draw their own water, but before they can do either they must pay tribute to the protected classes, while the myriads of farmers who sow and reap in Order that zu may live have everything they produce priced in a free-trade market under the gold standard and everything that they have to buy taxed to the moon to insure profits to favored domestic enterprises, Thirty years of Republican misrale tell the dreary tale. Militant Virtue in Indiana. From the Iadianapolis Sentinel. It seems that virtue is not its Own reward in Harrison County. About 100 virtuous law. breakers started out Sunday morning to whip and otherwise maltreat two desperate char-+ acters. But the desperate characters were ‘‘laying in anguish” for them, and when the virtuous people appeared the desperate characters filled six of them full of buckshot, This was very annoying to the virtuous peo- todo all the vio- and those im proper. widely outnumbered, If he fails to — — u- is time that a 9 the general condemnation and that the world should begin to show a proper amount of ro- Spect for these una 1 benefactors of mankind.

The time may come when his real worth will be recognized and a race of copper-lined and whisky-proof descendants will gratefully crown with a monument and strew with flowers every neglected drunkard’s grave. Another Eeltef Blasted. From the New Albany Ledger. Science has disproved the rural belief that thunder sours milk. It is now Known that the souring results from a fungus growth and that this fungus is peculiarly fatal to nursing children. The old-time rural belief was that the concussion from thunder acted mechanically upon the milk and first soured and then solidified it. The theory isa plausi- ble one, easily derived from observing one set of facts, without snowing about the existence of others more important to the situation. It happens that milk does sour Guriag or just after thunderstorms, because the atmospheric conditions then prevailing are usually of a kind favorable to the rapid development of the fungus growth that sours milk. 0 The Church cf the Heretics. From the New York Tribane. What shall be done with religious heretics, men who reject the outward forms of re- ligion but accept its spirit? It is a serious question for the heretics, and possibly for the churches. We cannot attempt to answer it here, but note that inthe last issue of the Evangelist the Rev. William Hoppaugh, a Presbyterian clergyman, advises the forma- tion ot a Church of the Heretics.’’ He is probably not altogether serious; fora church that would gsuitone heretic might not suit any other. But his proposition offers food for thought. The heretics, lke other Chris- tians, see the picture from different points of few; But let us hope that, like other Chris- tlans, they acknowledge in spirit, if not in letter, the religion of all sensible men.

To the Editor of the Post - Dispatch: I desire to deny emphatically part ofthe report in the Post-DisPatcH of the 8th, con - cerning the wonderful spiritualistic power of Mrs. Pesald of Lebanon, III. We hold our beloved dead too sacred to be dragged forth tobe the sport of a diseased brain. The statement that Dr. Cunningham was an inf delisalibel on his name and memory. He had an ever increasing reverence for the marvelous character of Jesus, the Christ. His wonderful patience struck him with rev- erentialawe. He would agree that the piti- ful wreck and waste of so much life here ought to find compensation beyond the grave. The failuresand disappointments in the lives of those who called themselves Christians repelled him. But he never scoffed at things sacred nor at the beltef of others. That a message came in his handwriting is utterly untrue. The message was not even spelled correctly. He encouraged Mrs. Pesolda’s visits to Mrs. Miller bevause they were always accompanied by a well-filled basket of needed delicacies which went a long way toward ‘‘healing.’’ I beg of her to desist in the use of his name, if not out of re- spect to his memory, out of respect for the feelings of the living. B. Roasting the Races. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: For some time I have noticed the ‘‘roasts’’ one of our morning dailies has been giving the place familiarly knows as Pool Alley, and have wondered why no mention has ever been made of irregularities or crooked prac- tices at South Side and East St. Louis race tracks.

CIRCUMSTANCES WHICH EVENTUALLY LED TO HER BECOMING MYOWN. © After all I am going to marry Locille,. It is more than a year since poor Robethon died, and, perhapsI am a donkey to do it at my time of life, but she is unquestionably a charming woman. She made him happy and—Iamafraid Iam a fool. I feel, how- ever, as though I owed it almost to his mem- ory and something to her, too, Yes, there is no doubt, I owe her something in that line—and yet, good heavens! Iam not doing it on that account. I love her, desperately, down to the ground. „Dick, she saia to me yesterday, looking straight at me with her wonderful blue eyes— ‘*Dick, why do you ask me now?“ „Better late than never, I answered, She began, Five, six years ago you-—’’ and stopped. ‘*Iknow. I was a fool, Lucille. I never once thought of it, though. Yoa see, the idea was foreigntome.

Presently I looked up,and as our eyes met I dlurted out, Because I love you, of course. I did not mean to say that, just tnen; the truth is that the idea of ‘‘reparation’’ had got full possession of my brain, and how to express it gravelled me, Luciue laughed lightly. ‘*That, Dick, 16 second thought, and not a bad one fora man who is offering himself as a husband. stin, I want your rst.“ „was thinking that, love apart, you have a moral claim upon mo.“ A great wave of color rose and fell, leaving her beautiful face pale as marble.

Love's gifts, being no impoverishment of love, entall no indebt.- edness upon the recipient. Loveis paid for its gitt in the giving. This, I thought, was a counsel of perfection, and better suited to angels and angelic loves than to men and women in an earthly, highly conventional society. And that is why you wish to marry me?’’ she added. I felt that I wasonthinice. ‘*No, darting, itis not. I 10% you. There's no harm in that, I hope?“ No, nota bit. It is avery good reason.

But there isthe fear that if the wife dend children are away the man!“ may drin too much; there is the rent falling due jor which no provision bas been made; there is the tear that places to wash will be lost if @ week is missed; there is the fear that poor belongings will not be safe during the ab- gence inthe lightly locked rooms they call home. These difficulties only limit the number. There are Many mothers who do not raise them, who do not consider them, who only think of the chance to benefit or save the child. Dr. Louis T. vim'’s patients at the camp are progressing as rapidly toward recovery as one familiar with the curative effect of the Piasa air would expect. The children are very happy and the mothers proud of their Uttie ones’ improvement. Nearly all will be ready for the returning boat Monday, when their places will be taken by the new party now being organized in the city. There is one baby at the camp—pale, ema- ciated and languid—that was born ta south Daketa. Her mother took the little pne to St. Louis and died there.

The grandm r was beginning to think her little one never be well again, Then she heard of the Chil-\ dren’s Camp on Tree View Farm. On the boat there were many who were in- terested in the Dakota daby. There were volunteer nurses who relieved the grand mother of her charge for awhile and at-one of the times while her arms were empty the old lady saw the mother of a baby that had whooping cough trying vainly to relieve her child from the torment of a coughing par- ~pxysm. The grandmother ran to render the mother some assistance, but the doctor stood in her way. the baby has whooping cough, he said. po you want your baby to have it?“ The old lady’s eyes grew big with fear.

Her child was in guéh distress.

Whenever she heard the whooping note she clasped her own closer and trusted none of the volun- teers who would sbare the care of her infant with her. There was no whooping cough at the camp, nor any other contagious disease, and she gon fesumed her customary helpfalness. Her baby is better.

Bellaire Has a Bystem of Individ- * — HE WILL TRY TO Hav Tr ADOPTED BY THE TURF CONGRESS. Measures Under Discussion to Exclude Short Bred Horses From the Big Tracks—Ormonde’s Arrival—Jud Smith Joins the Browns—Amateur Wheel Tournament—General Sporting News. Capt. Bellairs, the Fair Grounds Superin- tendent, has originated a record book index system which he thinks will act as a safety- valve against the ringing of horses on race tracks. Ihe system consists of the track management recording a complete history of each horse as soon as the owner is given stable-room, in a book, which is to be kept for reference in the scaies room, usually located beneath or behind the judge’s stand. In this book the sex, breeding, color and markings of each horse participating in the meeting is registered, as is also the owner’s record. Entries will not be accepted from stables whose owners and horses are not registered. The scheme is to be given a trial during the club’s coming fall meeting, which will be opened the 26th of the present month. If it works the Western Turf Congress will be asked to take it up and have it in operation oneach track running under the Congress rules. The official adoption of some plan of this kind has long been needed. Allthereputable turfmen on the Western circuit are in favor of it, and when its good effects are felt the general public win, no doubt, have much more confidence in the racing. Many of the Western turfmen have deen urging the Turf Congress to have the matter arranged for in a more centralized manner. Instead of having each association maintain a register, as Capt. Bellairs suggests, they have been advocating the Congress keeping one big register and issue licenses to reputa- ble horse owners. Only owners with these credentials should be permitted to race on the reputable tracks. In addition to this plan, almost every owner racing in the West is in favor of the Congress making a rule that will shut out half-breeds. The big breeders of thorough- breds are with them in this respect, of course, and between the two elements some powerful influence will be brought to bear on the members of the Oongress by the time the next meeting of the organization rolls around. The owners of high-classed horses and the breedersof them argue that one of the objects in the organization of the Con- gress wasto promote the breeding of and contests between thoroughbred horses, This, it is claimed, is impossible as long as the tracks in the Congress continue to make races that encourage the presence at their meetings of short-bred, white-eyed and bush horses. This class of horses should be con- fined to the winter and country tracks. While, of course, the public demands sprint races, itis not necessary to have short-bred horses in them, They should be legislated off the big tracks, and the way to do it, ac- cording to the owners of high-classed horses, is for the Congress to register the standard thoroughbreds and issue licenses only to owners who race this class exclusively. A rule having for its object the enforcement of this principle will, no doubt, be adopted in the near future, This plan is counted upon to do away with the practice of ringing entirely. ORMONDE HAS ARRIVED. NEW YORK, Aug. 10.—Ormonde arrived safely yesterday. Since winning his race in 1887 he has traveled 21,000 miles and he has 3, 100 miles more to go before ending his trav- elsat W. O’B. Macdonougkh’s stock farm, Menlo Park, California. When th ship was warped into the dock Mr. Macdonough climbed on board. Ormonde occupied a specially constructed box stall aimidship on the main deck. It was padded and floored with sawdust. Ormonde looked his size, a full 16.1 hands, and gavethe im- pression of rugged strength. Regarding his future plans, Mr. Macdon- ough sald: For the future I do not think I will race much, not until Ormonde’s produce are old enough for the turf, I have bought the horse solely to use on my own farm. It is an experiment, not a speculation,although I have refused as high as $3,000 for his loan forashorttime. In England I could receive a mint of mouey, but as 1 bought somewhat on sentiment, I thought it better to keep the horse entirely for my own farm. The following mares who were all bred to Ormonde in England were alsoin the con- signment: Cottage Girl, by Isonomy} Mirage, by Speculum; Windflower, by Peter; Sapi- enta, by Windsor; Kissing Crust, by Sweet- bread, with filly by eg) ee ot aiden Belle, by Beau Brummel, with filly by St. Serf; Countess of Langden, by Kingcraft; China Rose by St. Honorat, with filly by Enterprise; Mirandola, by Jolly Friar. The horses were invoiced at $300,000. Mr. Macdonough took outa maritime risk for $100,- 000 at 8 per cent rate on the lot. He refused a regney insurance because the underwriters asked a 10 per cent premium, TRACK AND STABLE GOSSIP. Galen Brown, trainer of the J. M. Brown & Co, string, has telegraped from Oakley for stabling room during the Fair Grounds’ fall meeting. Brown was with the McCafferty & Wishard stable this spring until Washington Park was opened, when he took charge of the string racing under the name of his father, the late J. M. Brown. Last season Brown operated one of the largest strings on the Western circuit. After his sensational death during the riot at Garfleid Park last August, the best of his horses, including G, W. Johnson, ked Banner and O. H. Gillock now known as Metuchen, were disposed of for remarkably high prices. Galen and his brother are now racing a few selling platers. Fred Foster, the owner of Dr. Rice, win- ner of this year’s Withers stakes; Sir Walter Raleigh, Sweetbread, Sullross, Turco and other good ones, has also wired from Oakley forthe same quarters he occupied at the Fair Grounds last spring. Foster will bring one of the best stringsin the West to this point and undoubtedly will win his share of the money. R. R. Rice has notified Capt. Bellaire that he will arrive from Chicago on Saturday with three horses, H. G. Southard from the Anterior of Illinois * expected to show up to-morrow with ten ead. R. Foster bas arrived with J. B. Freed and two others. Nearly 200 horses are now quartered at the Fair Grounds, and by tue middie of next week about twice that number will be stabiled in the grounds. Nearly all the big strings now racing at Oakley will be here to take part in the Jockey Clab's meeting from the start. Charlie McCafferty, a brother of the only Johnnie, has decid to face at the course across the river the rest of the summer. He has an extensive string of poting plasters.

To-night another good card is offered. Every race has filled well. To-morrow is ladies’ night, ladies then being aamitted free to all privileges.

There wasas great a difference as this in many other cases, the pool-room spec¢uiator always getting the butt end of it. This is the one-hundredth night of racing at South Side Park this summer and the races have been so well Sees they will be coatiaued until No- vember. — — — — JUD SMITH SIGNED.

The Australians Had a Battle Royal in the Antipodes Three Years Ago. An old timer, Who is backing Dan Creedon in the coming battle with Alec Greggains, when asked why he was so confident that Dan would win when going against such a tall man, said: ‘‘Il was in Melbourne when Dan met Jim Hall in November, 1890, and it was the greatest battle I ever looked at. Mar- tin Costello was then running Apollo Hall and had matched the men for an eight-round go for a £100 purse, Hall agreeing to stop Creedon in that time. Fully 1,000 spectators were present, and from the first round till the end everybody in the ball was on their feet shouting like madmen, Creedon weighed 154, while Hall was heavier by eleven pounds. The men fought with fonr-ounce gloves. Joe Goddard, then an aspiring heavy weight, was referee, In the first round Hall was enabled by his cleverness to get ig 4 the best of it. Creedon stood off and, being at a disadvant- age in height and reach, had received the most punishment. At the call of time for the second round Creedon changed his tactics, and, rusbing at Hall, fought like a tiger in the style that he since won the championshipin, He landed a terrific left on Hall’s stomach, and, swinging his right, knocked Hall down, although the blow only reached his shoulder, From that time on it was one of the fastest ding-dong battles ever witnessed in the antipodes, and at the call of time at the end of the eighth round Creedon had slightly the bestofit. As Hall had agreed to ‘level’ him in that time and had failed Creedon was awarded the decision and purse. **He then challenged Hail to a finish ‘go,’ and the men would have met, but Hall, hav- ing a good opportunity to come to this coun- try and not liking Dan’s game, did so and allowed the game to go by default. Jim was then as tall as he is now and just as clever, and if he couldn’t finish Creedon—and he never fought harder in his life—I don’t think Greggains can.’’ Pugilistic Pointers. Recently the Columbian Club offered Bob Fitz- simmons a $20,000 purse te meet the winner of the Creedon-Greggains contest Tuesday. President U’Malley received a dispatch from the champion, who is at New Orleans, saying that he accepts the proposition and stating that he would be at the ring. side Monday to challenge the winner in person. Paul J. Pitzlin of Dallas, Tex-, formerly of St. Leuis, is in Chicago trying to arrange a finish fight with some 154-pound man. He says he would like a ge with Baker, Greggains or any of the other good oness the fight to take piace before the club effering the best inducements. There seems tobe a prospect of Billy Myer and Paddy Smith meeting. Gvertures have a made to the Streator man te fight Smith, and if Myer can et to weight he will meet the conqueror or young orbett. The Columbian Club hes offe a purse for a Oght at 135 pounds, but Myer would not get be- low 137 to fight Paddy, As that weight there is A prespect of a fight. ee — ENTRIES ARE MANY.

Boon Within the Reach of Every Famil). The Good that Follows the Use of Lactated Food. “Infants are suffering frightfully in these days,” said a physician to a Post- Dispatch man yesterday. , July and August are fatal months for children, and the death rate from cholera infantum will keep up during September. „Cholera infantum, under which title many cases of indigestion are reported,is a preventable disease, and he showed the reporter a recent grouping of statistics from which it appeared that this disease was preventable by the use of lactated food. Hundreds of physicians prescribe this lactated food for their little patients at the A of summer, with the assurance that the dread disease will not appear in that family. Thousands of mothers have testified to the fact that lactated food has done what nothing else could do—saved the lives of their little ones. No better evidence can be offered of its superiority than the many instances in which fretful, peevish and sleepless babes, as soon as put upon lactated food, sleep all night and wake up laughing. The happy change, physicians say, is solely due to the superior nourishing and satisfying qualities of this food. It must be borne in mind that lactated food is so inexpensive that it is within the reach of every family. For twenty-five cents a mother can buy a package that contains enough to make ten pints of cooked food, The most skillful specialists in children’s diseases have publicly advised mothers that to be on the safe side they should use lactated food unt their children are old enough tq come to the table. It strengthens the weak ones and keeps the well babies strong. Mrs. Percy Purcell left on Monday for the lake regions, via Chicago. rs. B.

The crowd was very Orderly and was paid as rapidly as pos- sible. Meanwhile a run began on the Fourth National Bank, which has a capital stock of $1,000,000 and a surplus fund of $200,000, and is rekarded by business men as perfectly solvent. The directors of both the American and Fourth National Banks published cards this morning to the effect that their banks were perfectly solvent and also pledging their personal property to the payment of depos - tors. The run on the American Bank was stopped by 10:30 o’clock by the announcement of the board that they had decided to sus- pend payment. The Fourth National Bank continued to pay depositors as fast as checks were presented, and at this hour (10 o’clock) is still doing 80.

This morning Jesse A. Graham, one of the n s. | Stockholders of the St. Louis Enclosing and Mailing Co., petitioned for a receiver for the concern. The company’s works are on Morgan street, just west of Vandeventer avenue, in the old Narrow Gauge Depot. Graham’s petition alleges sucha condition of financial distress, owing to the strin- gency, as to render it very doubtful if the company can go on, anda receivership was asked as the shortest way out of the trouble, The corporation was levied on yesterday and other levies are being threatened. The peti- tion alleges also mismanagement and ne- giect of business. The company was repre: sented and joined in the application, and all parties agreed in asking the appointment of 8. O. Cabanne as receiver, and he was ap- pointed with bond at $15,000. Etephensen Made Receiver. W. M. Watts, Walter H. Beck, Frank J. Watts and Z. F. Baellert, composing the firm of Beck, Watts 4 Co., brought suit against the Beck- Watts Fixture Co.,H.K.Gilman,the Great Western Manufacturing Co. and the Great Western ElectricjSupply Co. The Beck- Watts Fixture Co. is a St. Louis concern; the other defendants are in Chicago; the plaint- iffs were in the retail trade of selling lamps, gas and electric lighting fixtures, etc.; the Chicago defendants are manufacturers and wholesalers of such goods. Plaintiffs allege that on May 24 last they en- tered into a contract to form a corporation kno as the Beck- Watts Fixture Co., $100,000 capital. The bg eye was started by Beck, Watts & and was accepted by H. K. Gilman, trustee for the Great Western Manu- facturing Co. and the Great Western Electric Supply Co. Beck, Watts & Co. were to turn in Ab 1 their assets and Giiman was to put in enough of the stock of the Great Western companies to give him a controlling interest. The new corporation was to assume Beck, Watts &Co’s abilities, $11,417.96. Gilman took some steps towards organizing the new cor- poration, Dut never completed itor had the articles recorded in Missouri, and H. W. M. Watts and F. J. Watts, ho represented the corporation here, have received no salary. Gilman did not provide forthe obligations of Beck, Watts & Co., although the latter had con- veyed all their property to the new corpora- tion. He has failed to send the plaintif’s goods under the contract, and now he de- clines tocomply with any of the provisions of the agreement. Plaintiffs averthat they have now some $5,578 notes soon to mature, which defen- dants refuse to provide for. Some of plain- ed paper has already gone to protest, and —4 state that they are able to suits attachments which will break them up in consequence of their having conveyed their assets to an unorganized foreign corporation. They allege that the Beck-WattsiFixture Co., in so farasithasa legal existence, is a corpora- tion of the State of Iowa, without authority to do business in this State; that it has no legal existence in fact and no officers chosen according to law, and no assets andis irresponsible for any judgement at law that might be obtained againstit. And they think that the other corporations occupy no better footing. Petitioners asked that the deed or bill of sale from Beck, Watts & Co. to the Beck-Watts Fixture Co. be set aside and that a receiver de appointed and an ac- counting dad and that the defendants be enjoine from doing anything further under said contract. Judge Valliant granted the prayer and ap- pointee L. B. Stephenson receiver to take charge of all the assets of plaintiff? and of Beck- Watts Fixture Co,, upon giving bond in $30,000. His bond was filed and approved, and he took the oath of office, Another of Florida’s Deals. N. B. Week and P. G. Shelton, A. 8. Bu- chanan’s executors, sue Julius V. Boucher, Joseph Dickson, et al., to have some Florida conveyances set aside. The petition alleges thatlast November Frank J. Price owned certain property on Chestnut street near Twenty-first, and put trust deed thereon to secure about 88.000 worth of potes to order of Alonzo K. Florida. Afterwards Florida indorsed the notes and sold them to Buchanan, and itis charged that he then, on Jan. 16 last, — 1. the property to Price and pre- tended to release the real estate from the lien Of the said deed of trust, and the game day Price conveyed the real es- tate to Boucher in trust to secure another lot of notes payable to Flor- ida’s order; and that then Florida executed conveyances and releases until the exact situation of affairs is not to the plaintiffs very well known, and they want them all set aside and the original Price deed of trust be declared in force, Buchanan having become owner of the property and buying the first notes from Florida.

The house burned stood at the southeast corner of Goodfellow and Sucille avenues and was unoccupied. The bullding was of frame and the property of Morrill Elimanofthiscity. It was occupied until about a month ago by Orrick Bishop, Assistant Prosecuting Circuit Attorney. The attention of the neighbors was attracted by the Diaze and the door was broken in. Flames were discovered in a closet in the kitchen. In this closet was discovered a ory can, the appearance of which indicated t it had contained some inflammable sub- stance, and near the can were some partially burned fragments of paper. The fire was burning fiercely behind the wainscoting and the flames were beyond control. The build - ing was a total loss, The insurance on the house aggregated $5,600. There were two policies, each of $3,000, issued by the United States Fire Insur- ance Co. of New York, and the Southern Fire Insurance Co. of New Orleans. The sum of $200 in each policy covered the barn. The insurance companies are investigating the case. WABASH LOW RATES. Louis to Kansas City..... Louis to St, Josep...

New Tonk, Aug. 10:—Prof. Hermann, the magician, expressed a desire to be present at the interment of Mind-reader Seymour yesterday. Speaking of the proposed test, he said: 1 see that A. J. Seymour, the mind-reader, has made a proposition out in Illinois to be buried and remain under ground while acropof barley is grown over him, Now, it is impossible to do this and come out alive. I’ve heard of similar tricks in the East, and, although I have tried to witness such performances during my three visits to India, Ihave failed. Now, I say this can’t be done, and in order to prove it Iwill offer my services and go out to this fellow’s obse - guies accompanied by a reporter. if the fellow is — under the ground in clay soil I will see that there is no ‘fake burial,’ and 1 miss my guess; or, say, I will guarantee that he will stay inthe ground until the day of udgment unless his friends remove him de- ore that time. I will be ready on a day’sno- tice from now until Sept. 1. or from Sept.1 to the ]6th. Bear the World-Renowned Sohmer Pianos at Koerber’s, 1108 Olive street.
