Wen Many Prominent Bank Officials Were at Gea in Commenting on the Showing—Some Hai Predicted Heavy Increases in Reserves and Others «& Moderate Decrease—Curreney- New York, Aug. 19.—The stock market opened to-day in the usual way by the Ohalr - man giving the announcement that business might be begun, but that was about the only gign of taking up the day's work on the board. Rarely has there been go little busi- ness transacted on the floor bf the exchange as was recorded to-day. What there was of the market was strong on the ex- pectation of a more favorable bank state- ment and the absence of any attempt to gell by the bears. If the scarcity of money, actual castr, continues much longer, it is to be expected that stories of the payment of red-hot dollars over bank counters will be revived. Many stories are being told of the way in which bank-tellers prevent wily de- positors from depleting the bank coffers by drawing cash for the purpose of selling it at a premium to the money brokers. The schemes devised for temporary relief of the fnancial stringency have so swelled in character and number that it is hard to keep track of them. Every day some new one turnsup. The one that commands most gen- eral approval is that adopted ina provincial city, where currency cannot be got with which to pay offthe hands in the industrial establishments and where a resort has been dad to payment in certified checks, the checks being accepted at par by the butcher and baker, who, in their turn, deposit them as cash in their own banks and draw against them as they would against a cash balance, thus keeping a credit currency afloat not subject to discount. Doubtless, inspired by this wise example, the City Bank of Buffalo, an insti- tution organized under the State law, has seta new plan before the public which has works will } ~ of from 7% to 165 ver cent.

While Tampering With Burlington Rails They Are Discovered, Sr. Josern, Mo.-, Aug. 19.—Two farmers discovered a number of strange men at work on the Hannibal & st. Jo tracks near Hemp- hill, a station twenty miles east of here, about 8:30 o’clock last night. They hurried to Hemphill and informed the station agent, who sent a number of section men to investi- gate. When the strangers heard the latter coming they escaped to the neighboring woods The section hands found that one of the fish plates of a rail had been partly re- moved. Itis believed that the men meant to wreck and rob the Burlington’s st. Louis express, which left here at 8 o'clock last night. WRECK THE SALOON, Indignation Leads a Brooklyn Mob to Punish Heertles nes. BRooxtry, N. T., Aug. 19.—Four children were injured in a fire yesterday and they were taken to the saloon of Charles Meyers, near by, for temporary treatment until they could be removed to a hospital. Meyers very brutally refused to allow them to be taken into hig place. This aroused indignation, which deepened during the day. There was not much thought of punishing Meyers for his in- bumanity, while the fire was in progress, but when it was over the indignation against him began to make itself mar ifest. During the afternoon threats of lynching were hear! among the men who had crowded about the ruins, and when night came on an angry mob, numbering many hundreds, gathered and bitterly denounced the saloon. keeper for turning the injured children from bis doors. Finally some one passed around the word that Meyers’ house was to de attac ed. At 9:30 there was an angry army of 10,000 deter- mined men marching over the hiils toward Meyers’ saloon. Meyers had been warned and, quickly barring his doors and windows, he extinguished the lights, ran into the yard, got into his wagon, which was in readiness and hurriedly made his escape to Newtown. Some one threw @ paving stone through the plate glass window. This was the sianalfora general attack, and a minute later a hundred men were tearing down the building. Every- thing in the saloon was demolished or carried offand thena visit was paid tothe living The carpets were ripped up from the floors and everything smashed. A Meyers’ house, and at midnight the mob was REPEAL IS POPULAR The House Anti-Silver Committee Re- ports on a Canvass.

Wasnincroxn, D. C., Aug. 19.—The Anti- Silver Committee of the House—the Tracy- Cockran Committee—met again this morning and discussed the situation. The various sub-committees reported as to the canvass in the House, and from the reports the commit- tee feels certain that repeal will go through the House without any of the Bland proposi - tion as to ratio on the Dill. The reports in regard tothe Senate, however, did not give much ecouragement for au early dis- cussion of the Vorhees Dill. The silver men are determined to keep the Senate blocked with the bank bill and intend to talk on this Dill as long as possible, thus Keeping it the unfinished business and preventing the re- peal bill coming before the Senate. Mr. McCreary (Dem.) of Kentucky opened the silver debate in the House to-day, speak ingin favor of the repeal ofthe silver pur- chase law. He said he would not hold that actasa hostage for free coinage. Let free coinage stand on itsown merits. But this was not the time for the United States to adopt free coinage. The only path which led to the free coinage of silver was an interna- tional agreement, and the only way to reach thatagreement was the repeal of the pur- chasing clause, Mr. Catchings (Dem., Miss.) followed. Mr. McCreary and declared himself squarely and unhesitatingly in support of the uncondt tional repeal of the Snermanact. He would vote against any proposition directly or in- directly looking to the free coinage of silver at any ratio that could be suggested, INGENIOUS TACTICS.

GREENVILLE, S. O., Aug. 19.—Charles@. Barrett of Spartanburg and two others, im - plicated with him in conspiracies to defraud the Governmont by establishing new post- offices and canceling large quantities of stamps to secure shipments of valuable goods on which bogus mortgages were given and foreclosed to defraud shippers, have been indicted in the United states Court here.

FORGERIES CLAIMED, LEXINGTON, Ky., Aug. 19.—A rather sensa- tional suit was filed In the Circuit Court here late yesterday afternoon. The petition was filed by Mrs. Mary Veath, a widow, residing in Lexington, in which F. P. Scearce and tue Blue Grass Building and Loan Association, jointly, are made defendants. Mrs. Veath says in her petition that she loaned Scearce $1,000, and accepted, as security, a note acainst Miss Alice D. Roselle and six shares of Blue Grass Building and Loan Association The Roselle note, she afterwards dis- covered, was a forgery and had no value. She states she went to the building association and asked to know if the association would pay her the value of the six shares of stock which she held, and that the secretary of the association retained the said stock and refused todeliver the same to her, and that the association has appro- —— the stock, knowing that it was given eras security by Scearce. She claims that the certificates are worth $1,500 and that she is entitled to possession of same and damage to the amount of $150. It is thought this suit is likely to uncover a series of forgeries as yet stock. of an attempt to break up a house of ill-fame kept by Marsh. 2 A REVOLTING CRIME.

When the statement finally made its appearance it provedto be favorable. Probably the item which attracted the most attention was the further increase in circu- lation of $702, 200, which makes the gain in this respect for the past two weeks over $1,400,000. Loans were . $5.- 255,500; depusits decreased, $1,901,100. here was a main in specie of $4,728,000 and a loss in legal tenders of $708,700.

Money on cali was quiet at 8 per cent. There were no transactions in time loans and mercantile paper. The demand for currency was a odererety laree at 14%@8 percent. Spot gold is 2% per cent and for future delivery 1% @i% percent. The Sub-Treasury paid $80,000 of its $88,815 debit balance at the clearing house in gold and the remainder in Treasury notes.

The anti-silver men are said to have a pledge from members of the committee that the banking Dill, first re- orted, shall be disposed of before the repeal fll is taken up for consideration. his opens the way to the development of a situa- tion not apparent at first glance. In the first place a great deal of time may be consumed in the discussion of the bill; and, in the sec- ond place, that Dill is subject to amendments indefinitely. As has been Stated in the Star, the silver men expect this bill to be amended in such away as to develop it into a broad and general nan. cial measure. With silver out of the ques- tion, the amendments likely to be adopted aresuchas will either meet with the ap- proval ofthe anti-silver men or be violently opposed by them. If no silver amendment is attached to the bill, It is likely to come out of the Senate in a shape not to excite the antag- onism of the Administration forces, and it will be apt to pass the House. But it is un- derstood to be a part of the plan of the silver mentohavean amendment offered provid- ing for the free coinage of silver at a raiio of 20 to 1, or for any other silver proposition which may develop the greatest strength in the House. On this amendment the silver men in the Senate can get u test vote without involving the consideration of the Sherman repeal bill. Ifthe amendment is carried it disposes of the repeal bill in itself, and they are confi- dent that this composite financial measure, Silver and all, could be got through the House. If the silver men, however, prove not to be strong enough to adopt this amend. ment, the Sherman law will still be on the Statute booxs, and by preventing a vote on it they can keep it there, In the meanwhile the calculations are that the bank bill as a measure of relief will be come a law. This will relieve the situation from one point of view and leave the siiver uestion just where it is. In other w ras, they propose either to adopt such silver legisiation as they are 1 should take the place of the Sherman law in the form of an amendment to the bank Dill, or else to preserve the Sherman law itself. By this * they avoid the danger, should they be nthe minority, of being defeated in a vote on the repeal bill.

C., Aug. 19.—The Senate was not in session to-day. Rather unex. pecte ly and after refusing to adjourn over from Friday till Monday, early in the day yesterday, the body reconsidered its action behind the closed doors of an executive ses- sionand consequentiy there were no pro- ceedings of interest to-day beyond the speech- making in the House. In some quarters it was suggested that the torpedo thrown into the Senate by Mr. Butler of uth Carolina yesterday in the shape of of an amendment to tne bank circulation bill, repealing the State bank tax, had alarmed the renators who desired speedy action On that measure, and, fearing that the amendment might carry and thereb cripple the national bank system, unless ful time were given to int out the dangers it invoked, they permitted an adjournment.

The bank is the successor of the Finney County National Bank, which, when it was in a falling con- dition last winter, was converted into A State bank. When reorganization was Commissioner Charles N. Johnson visited Garden (ity and made an examination. He was shown $10,000 in cash, and on that show- ing permitted the bank to begin business. After he had returned to Topeka, as it now ‘arpears, a lot of the worthless paper of the National bank was substituted for the cash and the bank was loote‘. Subsequently Bank Commissioner Breiden thal made anexamination of the bank aud notified the officers of the bank that the capital stock of the bank must be made good. Faithful promises were made that this vould be done, but it never was, and eventually r. Briedenthal took possession and the Court appointed K. N. Hatcher re-eiver, Mr. Hatcher has since been in charge and has been at work straightenin out the tangle in which he found e affairs involved. He wasunableto g3t the cashier to give up his books, but after all diligent effort on his part and that of the depositors, he got acdess to them. It appears that 144 11-15 shares or stock had been issued, Some of this was credited to Fastern stockholders of the defunct national bauk and the balance was held in Garden Oity and vicinity. Of the local stockholders but two were responsi'le persons and their stock had largely been transferred to straw men, which enables them to escape suit for indebtedness of the bank. Commissioner Breidenthal has advised the depositors that all of the depositors and stockholders of the old national bank are responsible for the indebtedness of the State bank as the two | concerns are in fact, though not in name, one and the same. He has also urved them to institute criminal proceedinus against the bank officers. Few detatis of the fine work done by the Garden City bank financiers have yet been furnished Mr. Breidenthal by the receiver, but enough is known to show con- clusi vely that the failure is in no way due to the financial depression, but that the dank has been wilfully looted. HAS AN ALIBL S«ys He Can Frovs He Did Not Kill Willie Kohne. John Bowers, the hack driver who was ar- rested by Officer Doyle early this morning upon suspicion of being the man who, on Wednesday last, ran over and almost in- stantly kilied a boy named William Krohne at the intersection of Twentieth and Hickory streets, expects to prove bis innocence by an alibi, When seen by a reporter itn the holdover at the Four ‘ ourts this morning he was most emphatic in his declarations of in- nocence and, should he be able o prove the statements he makes as to his whereabouts that night, he will in all probability be acquitted. ‘*ihey accuse me of driving over the boy at about 8 o'clock last Wednesday evening,’’ he said, but I never saw the boy, anilcan prove it. I took my hack out about 6:30 | o’clock that evening, and drove up tomy home, 115 South Eleventh street, where I ate supper. After supper I gave some children who live near mea short ride. At 7:30 o’clock I was down at Faust’s saloon, where I got a fare, a man, whom I drove to the depot. This took me less than fifteen minutes, and after droppiag him I went back to Faust’s.

There's a famous product of the prairies of the Dakotas which is known as the pop- weed. Itisof rank growth, but little less than marvelous in Ks way, says the New York Commercial Advertiver. It has a etalk like the cablage plant, with a large, round top the size of a Hubbard squash and about the same color. There are thousands of acresof it on the Indian reservations. In the vicinity ofalkali beisit grows toa pro- diutous size. Whenthe terrific northwest winds blow late in the fall the pop balls become detached from the stalk and roll for miles overthe prairies until they reach uneven country or other obstructions, where they accumulate and pile up like hivh houses of snow. Be- hind these banks of weeds the wild buffalo found shelter in midwinter from the flerce biizgards. If the pop- weed ball comes forcl- bly in contact with any hard object while rolling lt explodes with a tremendous repo t, a cloud of une powder passes on througi: the air, and thoysands of shar), fine needies are thrown out in every direction. These needles are the seeds of the pop-weed and are what produce the mischief with stock, for they are very penetrating. A ‘‘critter’’ will run froma rciling pop weed like a jack rabbit from a coyote, The Indians tell strange and interesting stories about the weed. It tis said that the young braves of the tribe, for discip ine and to prepare themselves to endure great tor- ture, would fight with. these pop balls as schoolbivys do ith snowballs. ‘‘The battle of the pop-weed’’ is held once a year and is witnessed by the Whole tribe with Lreat pump and parade. To the young braves the occasion is what the Fourth of July is to the white American youth. There are the noise and smoke ot! Dattle to perfection ana the finesherp needles cause intense pain. The exhibitions of bravery are rewarded by promotion in the tribe and presentations of handsome bead work are nade by the young braves’ best squaws or maidens. The neeules from the largest p-weeds are very long and when baied in hot ashes become very hard and strong and make good arrows. The Zulus at the Fair would undoubte ily be charmed with this wonder- fully warlike weed and perhaps, knowing a good thing when they see it, would sure! want to take tack atonorsoof it for s : Certain it is, however, that with the passing away of our bufale and Indians the Dakotas ore ve than anxious to be rid of the pop- GOT A HAT BY FRAUD.

To-day brought no new developments in the mysterious Gisappearance of Minnie and One Larue, the two sisters who left their father’s home, 1126 Collins street, last Thurs- day night at 11 o'clock, and have not been seen since, The letter which the sisters left on the plano addressed to their father con- tains more than was at first noticed. It was @itten on ordinary note paper and the para- graphs were scuttered over the entire eight pages. On one page heretofore overlooked MU, 3 Minnie Laruc. the cause of their departure is given. They accuse the father of holding them responsi- ble fora fuss they had with their brother, Willie, ahd express the hope that now they are gone their fatherand brothers may live happily together. THEIR DEPARTURE PREMEDITATED. It has heen learned since they left that the two sisters must have contemplated their departure at least two dayt before they left. On Tuesday last Ollie, the younger girl, who is 16 years old, left home at 11 o’clock in the morning and remained away until 4 o’clock in the afternoon. Onthe following day her 17-year-old sister Minnie performed the same trick. It is supposed that when they went out on these occasions they carried of their clothing, for they did not leave the house on Thursday until late at night, and then it was known that they had not taken their clothes, as they had been seen on Ollie Larue. the street by nelahbors and they carried no bundles. It is supposed that they made ar - rangements to remain some place on Thars- day night on the two days they were out. On Thursday evening they went down town, they said, to see the illumination, but returned in half an hour. During the night, about Jl o'clock, the father was awakened by his sons, who were upstairs crying. He asked what was the matter, and they in- formed himthat the girls were not home. He thought they were in bed all the time. He went down-stairs and found the note on the piano addressed to him, an! all his daughters’ clothing gone out ofatrunk. He examinedthe photograph album and saw that the girls had also extracted several pictures of themselves from its pages. HAVE NO RELATIVES IN sr. LOUIS. This morning r.

They na! some chanue when they left, but not enough to take them out of the city.“ Mr. Larue has not as yet requested the police to locate his daughters, aud has not made any search for them bimself, Where Pears Are Fount.

Itisofan entirely diferent species, and, asa matter of fact, the shelis of the so-called pearl oyster are of far more value to those engaged in ‘‘pearl fishing’’ than the pearis. There are extensive pearl fisheries in the Guif of California, and some of the finest pearls have been taken from these waters, In 1681 one pear!, a black one, was sold for $10,000, and every year since that time many pearis have been taken from the beds In the lifernian Gulf valued at over $7 $00 each, But such ‘‘finds’’ are re, and as a rule the pearis which are brought up are of very little value, The nelle, wowever, are very valuable.

PASSPORTS IN RUSSIA. Annoyanets That Must Be Submitted to by Trevel-rs in That Country. I traveled second class, says Jonas Sterling in the Century. On boarding the Russian train I oDserved that the passports were re- turned to my fellow passengers but not to me, which caused me some anxiety. Finally a gendarme came in and handed me my pass- port. After a few minutes the same gen- darme came again, accompanied by the con- ductor, and said to me in a commanding tone: **Your passport!’* I answered as po- litely as possible that my passport had al- ready been examined and stamped, and asked why he Wanted it a second time. Step- ping up to me the gendarme roared out, as if e were drilling a fresh recruit from the vil lage: That's our business! Your passport!’’ I produced it wituout further remark. y fellow passenvers looked at me, ads it seemed, with suspicion, and my own feelings remined me of the words of a Russian nobie- man to me on a former visit: ‘‘Russia isa gixantic prison, where honest nen must sub- mit to be treated as criminals.’’ Two years previously I had written a book on the religious movement in Russia, which had been forbidden by the Russian censor, but I did not think my name e uld de on the list of suspiciousand dangerous foreigners.

The Finder Who, Acoording to His Note, Is an DllMterate Man, Did Not Want Any Reward—He Declares in en Ac- ccmpenying Note That He Found Them at the Depot. The Disseau diamonds were found this morning under circumstances which lead to the belief that the owners knew ever since their alleged loss where they were, and that the whole scheme was one to get some cheap advertising. At 10 o’clock this morning a large package was thrown out of a local mall pouch at the Post-office. It was composed apparently of layers ot newspapers, and was unsealed, being bound simply by a rub- ber band. Upon the package an envelope was held in place by six i-cent stamps pasted over the edges. This tore the address the Day Clerk of the Lindell Hotel. The package was seen by the distributing clerk to be short of postage, and was handed tothe short postage clerk. On examining it he saw thata letter was thrust under, not in- closed in the envelope, and as was his duty. he read the letter. It was as follows: THE LETTER. SIn—This is the package that was picked up at Union depo tuesday nite not stolen but found dont want noone conneted if stolen would not stolen but found. On the back written in pencil, like the body of the note, was the address, Mr. Simon Disseau of New York.’’ the package was taken to Assistant Post- Mster Semple. He opened it, as it was un- sealed. First came a thick roll of newspaper, then some cotton batting, and then a red morocco case. In this cuse were a number of paper packagés containing carbon diamonds. Mr. Semple at once sent word to Mr. Willis Howe of the Lindell Hotel. Mr. J. H. Cook- son, who delivered the messa¢e, states that Mr. Disseau on learning the news seemed greatly elated and threw his arms a nd himin a transport of joy. He went at nee to the Post-office, accompanied by Mr. Howe. into whose custody the package was deliv- ered, Mr. Howe turned it over to Wr. Dis- seau, who appeared to be overcome with s- li ht, and warmly thanked the Post-office oficixls. He then took his departure with his black diamonds, EVIDENTLY A FAKE. The entire transaction bears suspicious marks from thefirst. Billings’ telegram an- hnouncing the loss would induce a casual reader to belleve that he wag either a cand. date for the insane asyium or had been look- ing upon the wine when it was red. His ac- counts of the whereabouts of the package were most contradictory. At first he said that it was inthe safe at the Lin dell Hotel. Then he stated that he held & re- ceipt from Clerk Henderson for the diamonds. The next story was that the diamonds had been left in an omnibus. Then from New Tor came the, story that a large numberof uncut diamouds had been lost withthe carbons. Finally the package received, several days after its loss, from some unknown man, who picked it up at the Union Depot. A reward was offered, bat the man did not claim it. He sent the package back in a way which prevented a reward be- ing claimed. The entire transaction has a strong flavor of the Kthopian in tue wood- pile. . the Lindell Hotel rotunda as soon as the re- covery of tile wealth became known. He carried the eventful package under his arm, but the diamonds were not within its folds, have them where they will not again be lost, he remarked, with a sigh of supreme relief, Guests and habitues crowded about m in order to read the letter which came with the ckage, and Mr. Disseau was frequently advised to treas- Ure the ixnorant scrawland the stamp pias- tere envelope. Mr. DLisseau narrated to a Post- DISPATCH reporter the story of the re- covery as already xiven. . 2 Mr., Disseeau, do you suppose that the Writer of the letter knew what was in the packaxe?’’ asked the reporter. Wnuvy, certainly, the letter indicates that.“ How can you explain the obtuseness ofa person who would send $80,000 worth of ata - mon isinan unsealed package through the pone mall with 92 cents ot the postage un- pa ae **I cannot explain it.“ Can you suggest a reason why the finder did not seex the reward?’’ No, except that the promos ot a reward was not made public until! this morning, and probably because the finder was afraid of ex- pos ure. Mr. Disseau smiled bDiandly upon all who came in his way, and led a long train of vol- ubie congratuiators through the portals of tue hotel bar.

Walker, @saloon- keeper, located on the corner of Seventh and Mor gan streets, was arraigned before United States Commissioner Crawford on the charge of opening a letter not addressed to him. Post-office Inspector Hall testified thatin July, 1892, a stranger had been taken from Walker’s boarding house, which he ran in connection with his saloon, to the City Hospital. Subsequently a regis- tered letter had arrived, which con- tained $10. Walker had receipted for it and abstracted the money, putting the letter in his safe. Nearly a year after the sender learned that it had not been received, and put the matterin the hands of the Post- ce au@orities. Inquiry was made of Wal- Fer as tothe disposition he had made ofthe letter. He produced it from the safe, turned tote till, took out a $10 bill, put it in the envelope, and returned the letter. He expressed much surprise when arrested, but admitted all the allegations made. He was of the opinion that the restoration of the let- tor and the money ended his responsibility. He was heia in bonds for the November term ofthe District Court. SHOT FROM AMBUSH. R. T. Justice of Bearden, Ark., Killed by ea Mill Hand. Bearpew, Ark., Aug. 19.—R. T.

How Twelve Tunisian Soldiers Showed Their Regard for Their Old Captain. Capt. Bordier, now a civil official at Mak- tar,in Punis, gives an amusing account of an experience with some of his old Tunisian soldiers, says the Youth's Companion. Some time after he had leit the army and had as- sumed office at Maktar, he met at the town of Bargon twelve soldiers of the company which he had once commanded, He was in- stantly recognized and surrounded. ‘‘They alltalked at once, he says. They hung upon my bridle and upon my stirrups; they embracea my hands; they grasped my boots and the tails of my coat. „God be praised! We have waited for you solong. Have you been well? And madam? And the children? And our lleutenant? ‘* *He was kiiled in Tonquin.’ „May God have mercy upon him. He was a brave man.’ And the Sublieutenant?’ ‘* ‘He was in Tonguin and is now a lieuten- ant and decorated. ‘* May God increase his prosperity.’ At last I wasable to dismount, and good fellows hurried away, to come back bringing mats and rugs and cushions, that their old Captain might be comfortably in- stalled. Me may offer you lunch?“ es, but it is a warm day. and one dish will be sufficient,’ They hastened away, and I saw them holding an animated discussion; then they disappeared in different directions. I after- ward learned that the most profound of the band had proposed to the rest that they should all contribute to a dish and that his wife should cook it; but the others were full of culinary pride, It was decided that each should bring mea dish, for wheu I had said ‘a single uish’ I had not specified whether —.— ‘each of you’ or ‘from you all to- gether.’ ‘ 1 nad finished an interview with the town oMciais and was resting, when I was in- formed: ‘sidi, your lunch is com ng.’ My twelve soldiers were approaching, each with an enormous dish. Twelve dishes to eat on that hot July day, with a terribie torrid sirocco blowing that would have de- stroyed the appetite of a glutton! Twelve dishes exactly like, cooked after a recipe which no doubt had been handed down from remote ages. Twelve mutton stews, swim- ming in rancid oll, dressed with dry raisins and peas as hard as buliets.

THE BUILDING COMMISSIONER'S art. TORNEYS SPRING A SUBPRISE, They Claim That the State Statutes Teke the Power of Removal Out of the Mayor's Hands, and Produce the Law —Reid’s Trial Continued Pending the Court’s Rulinz. Promptly at 10 o’clock this morning court was opened in Mayor Walbridge’s office with all the witnesses, attorneys and Defendant Reid present. Mr. Leverett Bell informed Judge Walbridge of the proceedings insti- tuted yestegday afternoon in Judge Fisher's court and 1 that the present hearing be lala over until a decision had been rendered there. The Mayor then announced that he would continue the matter until 10 0’clock Monday morning. THE PROAIBITIVE PROCEEDINGS. The attorneys for Building Commissioner Reid, Messrs. Leverett Bell and W. B. Thomp- son, sprung a surprise on the Mayor yester- day afternvon in the shape of a writ of pro- hibition against him for which they made a Heation before Judge Fisher at his home. After hearing the petition read the Judge said he would give them a hearing at 2 o’clock this afternoon and instructed Mr. Belli to notify Mayor Walbridge and the City Coun- selor of his intention, when he presumed the Mayor would not proceed with the trial of the case until! de h passed on it. It appears that Mr. Reid’s attorneys have discovered certain provisions in the statutes of the State, passed in pursuance to a constitutional 2 on this very point of the removal of State and municipal om- eſals from office, which will put a stop to all further farcical proceedings in the Mayor’s office. These provisions were embodied in the Statues by the first Legislature that convened after the adoption of the new constitution and were duly approved and became a law in 1877. They are paramount to any charter pro- visions on the subject and have the effect of nullifying thecharter prerogative assumed by the Mayor of preferring Charges .against an official and then constituting himself a — 2 to try them. Sec. 7 of Art. 16 of the State constitution says that the General A mbly shall provide ‘‘for the removal from office of county, city, town and town- ship officers on conviction of willful, corrupt or fraudulent violation or neglect of official duty.’ 2 7127 of the Revised Statutes, passed in pursuance of the above provision, states the general causes for which an official may be removed and Sec. 7128 states how it shall be done. In substance it provides that upon proper complaint made against any officer the prosecuting officer shall file the same verified by affidavit in the Circait Court and the party shall de cited to appear at the firstday of theterm succeeding, when the Court shail proceed to try the cause with the aid of a jury if demanded and pass juagment on the same. These provisions, Messrs. Bell and Thomp- son claim, are very explicit and take away the power from the Mayor. which he assumed in the Brennan case and is now attempting to assume again in the Reia case. They are satistied that Mr. Reid, it tried at all, must be tried in the Circuit Court. If their position is well taken Dr. Brennan's removal was legal and he can be reinstated in his old office. THE MAYOR’S INDIFFERENCE. Mayor Walbridge, when asked what he thought of the law points raised by the other side, said: * just glanced casually at the statute pro- vis ons referred toand do not profess to be lawyer enough to give an off-hand opinion on constitutional points. If I have no power in these cases and the court so decides, zhat ends it. I shall not worry a bit, fin factI think Iwill haveasnap, as it will take all the worry incident to removals from office of of my mind. Yet it seems strange to me if it should be law, as I. as Mayor of the city and responsible toa great extent for its government, am deprived of the power of removing an appointee who Is ullty of gross incompetency or neglect of oy in office. It would virtually place me as chief exec- utive of the — upon the same level with any private citisen and tax-payer, who can prefer charges against an o do not think it was intended by the Legislature to take from the Mayor of a eity the power of removing a subordinate from office for cause, but that is a question for the courts to decide and I have no hing to do exceptto abide by the final decision. THE CITY COUNSELOR DOUBTFUL. Oity Courselor Matshals@vho will argue the case in behalf of the Mayorat 2 o’clock this afternoon, says the law is good, but it does not deprive the Mayor of the power to re- move forcause. He admits that the present proceeding is not an impeachment as ex- cepted in the statutes, but simply a case of removal! from office for cause, »The question involved,“ said Mr. Marshall, is whether the charter provis- ions onthe subject are in conflict with the State constitution and statutes passed in pursuancetoit. Ifthey are then the State statutes must take precedence. At present Ido not think there is any conflict, but the whole question must be studied and care — considered. The only kick 1 have to register is thatthe attorneys on the other side have given me such short notice to MN an argument. I Will ask for no e A. THE sOLOMON Home of Canntbals and Head Hunters it the Southern Pacific. From the Philadelphia Telegraph. The Solomon group of islands, recently an- nextd by England, is the largest and as yet least known of any in the Pacific Ocean, though among the very first to be discovered. There are seven or eight large mountainous islands varying in length from seventy to 100 miles, and a great number of smaller islands, ranging from fifteen totwenty miles length, dowa to the tiny coral isiet only halt a mile across. The Solomon Islanders are of a mixed race, varying between an almost pure Malay type and the darker-skinned lynesian. Though they are almost universally canni- bails, they stand in other respects by no means low in the scale of savages. The men are, as a rule, tall and well formed, and the women,in their youth, are handsome and attractive, though the drudgery which falls to their lot soon ages and hardens their looks. Indeed, the condition of women . as in most savage races, is one of abDsolute subjection. The wife is tne household slave. Sheis completely in the power of ber husband for life or death. If goods be stolen from the house she is re- sponsibie to her lord in the first case, not the thief. Wives are bought and sold just like otber commodities, and ee the wealthy chiefs polygamy is freely practised. It was on one of these islands that ur. Bates, an English yachtsman, landed from his vessel and started into the woods. He never came back. 8 > j „ ae . . = .

The commercial traveler of the United ‘| States illustrates the growth and exten- sion and improvement and elevation of the world and humanity. Genealogically he is descended from the bagman of the last century, who figures in so many good stories; he who frst traveled on horsetack selling goods by sample, as distinguished from the Gler who sold the articles them- he bagman, deriving his title from his saddiebags, reprosented the extension of commerce and the growth of manu- factures. He effected the direct connec- tion between the wholesaler and the retailer, between the port and the interior, bet ween the centers of commerce and manu- facturesand the wide-spread country. He was the ambassador, the missionary, of trade. With the coming of railroads and steamboats the horseback traveler and his Saddlebags gradually disappeared, and s0 the name bagman went ottof use. The Original labors of this disseminator of trade were greatly increased in this country, and from the fact that his business was to vigor- ously solicit business with an energy like that ofthe ‘‘alarming drum’’ came the appella- tion arummer still in use; but with the increasing magnitude and, as may be said, the increasing ignity of his operations came & yet more comprehensive designation, and the bagman of old became the commercial traveler of to-day, as much greater than his commercial ancestor as a locomotive is in Dower than a horse, and as the colossal sam- ple trunk of the nineteenth century is to the Saddlebags of the eighteenth, ® commercial traveler, mustering dy thousands, is now a great factor ana feature in American business and social life. Tho value and necessity of the commercial trav- eler have been so fully demonstrated that there is no longer any talk of dispensin« with him, As every religion must have its Preachers, so commerce, trade, business must have its speaking ministers and agents, its ‘-stumpers,’’ solicitors and orators. The spirit of organization which distingaishes the century has reached the commercial! travelers. They form a great society and they have divided and _ subdivided the land among them. Incessant- ly traveling, they have directly and indirectly regulated lines and facilities of travel. Every railroad line has felt their Influence, and they have raised the hotel standard of the country. The commercial traveler, being an American citizen anu usually a voter, is necessarily a politician, and if he does not control elections (and he has been knownto do that), he becomes a gees judge as to how the election is going. es moves about among the people and de- comes a people's man;’’ he is an authority on pular events and questions; he connects distant communities, fosters the exchange of ideas, carries the news and fosters the broth- erhood of man. WAS AFRAID CF SHARPERS Jacob Wilder Had Heard of Them and He Was on His Guard. From the Chicago Post. The old féllow had come to Chicago to see the World’s Fair, but he was inclined to be suspicious and cautious. He had gone tothe little hotel that he had been told to go to, but he eyed everyone about it with more or less suspicion. He had settled down in the office to read a paper when a clerk approached him and asked: 5 Are you Jacob Wilder?“ „Heyl“ he said instantly on the alert.

A Stefving Mans Mistake. From the Chicagp Mat!. There was d broad smile on the faces of many in the Chicago Avenue Police Court to- day when it 2 learned that John Luroni, an Italian, haj fallen into the clutches of the police becar@ he had mistaken a garden hose for a pie@ of sausage.

The Mayor may still have an official removed, but the sufficiency of the cause will have to be demonstrated in court. It will prevent a repetition of such laughable and farcical spectacles as that afforded in the Brennan trial, and will put a stop to the hypocritical degradation of the removal power to the uses of partisan politics which is at present approaching a scandalous point in this city. 7 TOO MUCH LAW-MAKING. This country is suffering from an over- production of legislation. All classes look to the Government to do for them what they can best do for themselves, and eyery truly good man wants to see his neighbors raised to his own blessed condition by force of law. Maine has a prohibition law, enacted many years ago, which was ex- pected to make men sober and abolish all want and misery from the Pine Tree State. Iowa and Kansas have tried to coerce the people into sobriety by the same means, Illinois makes it a crime to sell cigarettes to minors without the written consent of parents. In all these experiments it is forgotten that when a man is convinced against his will he’s of the same opinion still,’’ and experience demonstrates the futility and positite harmfulness of attempts to pound piety into people’s heads with the butt end of the law. Men who do right because they must are no more good men than were nations made Christians when savage kings drove them in thousands to the river to be baptized by the missionaries. The inevitable consequence of such legis- lation is to breed contempt for law, for when restless spirits discover that the community ignores the violation of one law they jump tothe conclusion that law in general is a rope of sand. But in the manufacture of profits legis- lation is even more active and more per- nicious thanin the manufacture of good- ness. We are now suffering from the total failure of legislative attempts to pro- mote general prosperity by making a few individuals rich. The suffering of the people is not caused by the Sherman law alone orany other, but by the general system of interference with private affairs of which those objectionable acts are only incidents. Thetheory was that the gov- ernment must take careof the people. This was a beautiful idea and does credit to the good will if not to the under- standing of those who originatedit. But in practice it came to mean that the Gov- ernment should take care of a favored class by voting them large gratuities on the promises that individuals so favored would divide the bounty with the rest of the com- munity. | The consequences are here. They may be seen in the long lists of failures re- ported every day. They are seen in the bankruptoy of the rich and the starvation of the poor, in the truculent demand of Colorado silver mine owners for = special favors and in the menacing attitude of idle men begging for bread. We have tried to better nature’s handiwork and now she is getting her revenge. Things will get better when we stop looking to the Government to help us and our neighbors to profit and piety, and de- pend upon self-help only. In a Demo- cratic country the purpose of the Govern- ment is not to rule or aid the individual, while ls gratifying to know that the ons- — r ed J : - * . 1 24 > ie ö . oe 1 FR N 8. 8 * 913 e . 0 1 4 ie 4 a 1 9 .

It should not be forgotten that there is enough currency in the country for the or- dinary needs of trade, and that the so- called scarcity results from a fear among the owners of money concerning its future standing and stability. Confidence, not money, is Scarce. It rests with Congress to revive this con- fidence by wise and prompt action. The waste of time consumed in-the trivial de- bates of the past few days is reprehensible if not positively criminal. With a few exceptions the speeches are mere ex- changes of partisan love-taps and have no reference whatever to the question in hand. Debate is useful only when it is directed tothe subject under consideration, and whenever it is occupied with jokes and buncombe the whole country suffers. It is not atall likely that any new prin- ciples of monetary science will be devel- oped in the singular dialogue now going on in the two Houses. Not a vote will be changed by it, and its only -use is to ex- ploitthe depreciated wit of the partici- pants. Time passes; much inay be lost through delay. Every member of Congress is well acquainted with the merits of the Wilson bill. Letit be passed at once and after- ward let the question of the standards be talked out. * 8 — — a * FINANCIERS. It has often been charged that great bankers and other practical accumulators of money are poor counselors on questions of the financial policies of nations. There seems to be some foundation for the charge if we may judge from the conflicting opin- ions published every day coming from eminent and successful money makers. A well-known writer on financial topics, who is thoroughly familiar with the mental habits and business methods of New York bankers, writes of this in- capacity: Here in New York we have many excellent bankers and bank officers, but not one of them is a recognized authority on any finan- clal subjects but those which directly con- cern the details of the banking business. During the present crisis most of them have shown great tact and skill in conducting the affairs of their institutions and unduestion- ably their good management has mitigated the severest features of the monetary strin- gency. Still, after all, the ability they have displayed has been merely that of prudent. shopkeepers. Their vision has not extended deyond this city, and in many cases not de- yond their own immediate field of action. The fact is, success in private business does not argue any breadth of vision nor imply a profound understanding of the laws of trade .Themind of the average busi- ness man is absorbed in meeting his own emergencies. His intelligence is occupied with the task of maintaining a parity be- tween his bills payable and bills receiv- able which is not an easy thing to do and requires the most constant vigilance and thought. He has no time to think of the great controlling currents of trade which flow in their channels in obedience to laws ordained in nature’sdegislature and which cannot be set aside by any ordinance of man. The science of trade is beyond the reach of traders themselves who float with the tide and are the first to suffer from any derangement of the finances aris- ing from the negligence or folly of man- kind, They cannot see beyond their own interests which may or not bein harmony with the interests of the public. Mr. Gladstone, who is sald tobe the greatest Chancellor of the Exchequer En- gland ever had, and whose budgets are marvels of clearness and good sense, prob- ably could not makea dollar in private business, while Alexander Hamilton, the greatest financier in American history, ac- quired all his so-called practical knowledge of trade before he entered public life at the age of 17. _ n... - = 1 nn THE enormous error ot Gen. James Paris Lewis in choosing a Queen of Beauty outside of st. Louls may, after all, be viewed chari- tably if we will just sit down and think about it. Doubtless J. P. L. accepted the office of When he began to consider he must have discovered what a ax he was in. Of course I'll have to name a St. Louis girl, he may have said to himself. Then he may have refiected thatina city where there are hundreds of beauties and every girl is good looking the tumult that might be raised over the choice of any par- ticular one would ruin him forever. Even banishment might follow. Nowa man may be banished from Ohicago with great benefit to himself; but no man has ever fully recov- ered from expulsion from St. Louie. At his wits’ end, our Paris could think of nothing better than to choose his Helen from Oolum.- bia, not perceiving that such a course would bring upon him the concentrated wrath of ali St. Louis beauty. Gen. Lewis’ selection may really ,show the pre-eminence of St. Louis in its leautitul women, and if they can only be brought to look at it in this way the unfortunate man may yet be saved. »Tis sald Columbia's emblem Should be the tasseled corn, And that all other embiems Should but excite our scorn.

Senator Vest in his speech for free silver colnage based his argument ona plea for bi metallism, assuming, as the free colnage men always do, that opening the mints to sliver under the present circumstances would float all the cheap silver dollars which could be coined from the world’s silver bullion at par with our gold dollar. ‘‘If,’’ he said, Congress had the power now to put this country (all obligations being out of the way) on a single standard, the issue might bea fair one, but with debtsto the amountof eight billions due by the United States, the striking down of about one-half of the cur- rency would be not only unjustand ruinous, but absolutely wicked.’’ The Senator entirely overlooks the fact that unlimited silver coinage now would result in driving out of circulation considerably more than one-half the currency. In short, the flood of cheap silver would expel every gold dollar in the country and every dollar of paper money redeemable directly in gold. That istosay, all our money except silver and silver paper would be ‘‘strack down,’’ and we should be lett with not only a sin- gie standard, but a single standard of de- preciated silver. Would that be any less unjust, ruinous and absolutely wicked’’ than the single standard of gold about which the Missouri Senator grows excited? ‘MEN OF MARK Gren.

To attempt bimetallism is abont as foolish as it would de to attempt to travel two dl. vergent roads at once by putting one foot in one and the other footinthe other road.

But their work was forthe children and they grew earnest “again. They were there to lift the children up out of their misery, and there was work to do. If there were never a word of praise for all that has been done by those devoted to the camp's interest and service, there would be material for giowing in the sight of the little ones, whose eyes have brightened, whose cheeks have found substance and color there. But there are words of praise and words of thankfulness from those who see the charity from the outside and those who have par- taken of its benefits. To-morrow there will be preparations for evacuation of the camp. One army of pa- tients, recovered, will go out in triumph ana a new party ride in, dejected.

It is one ot the Jargest in point of attendance and one of the most interesting in the way of entertainment. The crowds began to arrive early. Before s o'clock there was a crush at the gates and it continued at intervals during the day, Englishmen were gut in large num. bers to make their celebration an auspicious one. The British Empire Demonstration Committee, composed of British Colonial Commissioners, co- opera ed with her maj- esty’s commissioners in making the affair worthy of the great nation. Canada, Aus- tralia, India, Ceylon, Trididad, Cape Colony, British Guiana and seventeen British socie- ties lent force, feature and eclat tothe parade and ceremonies. The demonstration opened at the lake front at the statue of Columbus at 8:30 o’cluck. There the procession was formed with Capt. Gordon, commandant of the British troops at the Fair, as grand marshal. His aids were Thomas Grovostock and Col. James Stewart. All the British troops were in line. The various English societies were out in full force and six coaches were filled with royal and colonial com missioners and the natives of Guiana and the East Indies. After parading the prinei- pal streets of the city the procession dis- banded to form at2o’clockin front of the Victoria House. From there the line moved to Festival Hall in the White Hall, where speeches, music and Prof. Tomlin’s chorus of 1,000 voices were heard. It is hoped that the 500,000 residents of III - nois Will take part in the parade on Illinois day, on Thursday. Harvest is over and seed- ing has not yet begun, and it is just the sea- gon of thé year that all citizens can attend. Railroad rates will be good for ten days or more, so that people can attend the whole of that week. The whole of the Midway Plal- sance, representing the nations of the earth and Buffalo Bili’s cowboys and rough riders, will be inline with 4,000 Illinolstroops. It will be the largest and most interesting pro- cession yet taken place. What promises to be the grandest fete night the Worid’s Fair has yet seen is announced for next Tuesday evening. It is to be held in the north end of the grounds where the State buildings are located. Each of the State Dulidings will be brilliantly illuminated and the trees on the lawns will be hung with col- ored lights and Chinese lanterns. Lightre- freshments will be served onthe lawns. All the State buildings will be open to visitors. Atsome of the buildings there will be danc- lag and at others there will be music and singing. The affair isto be held in honor of the West Point Cadets now in camp at the Fair. An effort is being made to have a large number of young ladies from each State at their respective State buildings to ald in entertaining the visitors. The Council of Administration ata meeting held to-day discussed the disgraceful prize fizht which was he'din the stock pavillion Thursday night. Every member wa- present and they were unanimousin denouncing the affair. A resolution was adopted calling for a thorough investigation of the affair. It was also decided that if it was found that any ofthe employes of the Exposition at- tended the fight and knew of it and fail-d to notify the police, 2 will de at once dis- charwed. The council further decide! that if the affair was engineered by any ot the con- cessioners or that any concessioners took art in the fight they will be prosecuted to he extent of the law.

Claim That Association No. 5 Is Secured by Claims on Other Associations. When Milo T. Bogard, the late Secretary of the Western Union Bullding and Loan Asso- Cilations, was removed from office and his pecullar dealings with the members ot the associations were discovered it was given out by the directors that Mr. Bogard was not short in his accounts with the associations. Yesterday it developed that Mr. Bogard was $7,000 short in his accounts with Western Union Buildingand Loan Association No. 8, andthat his bond in that association was only $6,000. Mr. Julius Leffmann, who has been in charge of the Western Union Associations since Mr. Bogard was deposed, was seen by a PosT-DISPATCH reporter this morning, and admitted that the statement was correct. He explained that Bogard had been acting as a . clearing-house between the Asso- clations, transferring funds from one to the other, as he saw At. Associations Nos. 2 and 8, he claims, owe Mr. Bogard money which they will not pay over to him until everything is settled. Mr. Leff- man claims this will make good the losses to the associations and leave a surplus which mempers * the r —— — 182 lost money on Bogard's a tw . mitted to attach. * 3 ABOUT TOWN.

Mitchell, Jewett ana Sweeney Will At- tend—President Von der Ahe’s Predt- lection for Pitohers— Track and Stable Gossip—Cycle Chat— Sporting News of All Borte. St. Louisans will have an opportunity next month of seeing the greatest athletes in America, and in the world too, for thai mat - ter, performing on a local track. The Fas- time Club’s new grounds on De Hodiamont avenue were to bave been opened to-day ac- cording to contract, but it was found impos- sible to get them in anyttfing like proper shape before Sept. 1. This gave the club an opportunity for an opening which a midsum- mer meeting would not have afforded. The International Amateur Athietie cham pion- ship games will be held at Chicago the sec- ond week in September, and it was decided by the club to wait un- tih after the championships were decided and then invite the winners down to compete in the inaugural games. Corre- spondence to that effect has been carried on with the result that the new grounds will be graced on opening day by at least halfa dosen of the greatest athletes of this coun- try. Mitchell, the wonderful hammer thrower; Harry Jewett of Detroit, the won- Gerful sprintef, and Richards, the Eastern college man; Sweeney of New York, the great high jumper, and other leaders in every line of track athletics will de present. When well handicapped these men will make splendid contests with the local athletes and spur them up to their best endeavors. The opening of the Pastime’s new grounds has been set for Sept. 19, and a big guarantee will be assured by the patrons of the club to cover the expenses of carrying the big open- ing meeting successfully. MORE PITCHERS. Frankand Goodenough Have Both Had Exp-rience in the Box. President von der Ahe has had more than a fair share of luck in base ball, but in no in- stance has his good fortune been so pro- nounced as in picking up good pitching ma- terial. It seems that every man the Boss President“ lays his hands on has a set of curves concealed about his person. The great twirlers that have been developed on the St. Louls team are now doing the best work on balf a dozen League clubs, but that’s another story. Mr. on der Ahe’s latest pitching acquisition was Bannon, whom hobody would suspect of being a twirler, but Kid“ Gleason insists that he will make one of the speediest pitchers in the profession, Then Henry Peits developed a taste for throwing teasers up to the batter, and is now being coached for a twirling debut in the fall exhibition games, And sti petohers bob up, for in Charley Frank ana Biliy Goodenough, the latest acquisitions from the Memphis club, the Browns have two more twirlers within their ranks. Both started in their profes- sional career as pitchers, Frank twirling his frst season onthe diamond for the Mobile Club, while Goodenough tried to saw out the opponents ofthe Galveston (Tex.) Cfub. Both men proved to de better batters than twirlers and have since become outfielders, Dut eithercan goin the points again in a inch. If Bannon were still with the team be Browns would have nine men under con- tract o could do a turn in the points, and the Browns could have surprised their — — nents by changing pitchers every inning without ing a man out of the game. WON IN THE TENTH. It does seem strange, but it is an actual fact, thatthe Browns had a little slice of luck yesterday. In the ninth inning Werden it a vicious grounder tothe left that Hall- man let go through his legs and Perry tied the score. Inthe Phillies’ half Lave Cross missed a chance to score by poor base run- ning. Then in the tenth Breitenstein did business with bis rival for three bases, and Brodie’s single brought him home. Both sides fielded remarkably well. The score: St. Louis 8, Philadelphia 2. Base hits—Sst. Louts 7, Philadelphia 11. Errors— t. Louis 1. WINNERS AND LOSERS. At Washington—Chicago 7, Washington 3.

At the Fair Grounds there is a horse with a rather remarkable history. Itis Dr. Rice in Fred Foster’s string. Mr. Foster came in possession of the horse in a rather queer manner. Dr. Rice once belonged to Gideon & Daly. Oneday after Dr. Ricehad runin a race and been beaten away off his owner met Foster, and, sizing him up for a Western sucker, told him that he was sick ana tired of Dr. hice, that they were superstitious and dia not think they could do anything with him. The truthof the matter was Dr. Rice had shown some signs of being a bleeder, and they thought it a good time to unload. How much do you want for him?’’ was asked Foster. .**Five thousand dollars will buy him, was Send him over to the the cash, replied Fos- v you. ees: give you r. The horse came over. The next morning Foster worked Dr. Rice a mile and an eighth in 1:54. Two days later Mr. Foster started him in the Withers stakes, worth $9,- 840 to the winner. Doggett ebim.

Old Men Go to Jail to / tone forthe Orimes of the Young. From the I ondon Dally News. Astudent of life and manners in the Pun- jaub has been struck by the large proportion of very old meninthe Indian jails. In the prison at Mooltan there were last year sey- enteen life prisoners whose total ages were found to amount to more than 1. 100 years— two of them being patriarchs of upward of eighty. This remarkable fact is attributed partly to the great improvement in the econ- Omy of Indian jails, since the exposure of their mismanagement some years ago, but more directly to the prevalent practice when a crime has been Committed of handing over the least useful member of the famliiy asa sort of vicarious offering to justice. Omthis point the Inspector-General of In- dian Prisons observes that the confinement which conviction entails is, of course, less irksome to the aged than to the young. **Moreover,’’ he continues, the Deople know that a specially comfortable place in the shape of f „ ample clothing, a special dietary, the lightest of work, and a society not entirely uncongenial awaits the old man in our jails.’’ A case has been cited in which a man had been strangled. The rson towhomthe crime, by his own con- ession, was brought home was a feeble old fellow who had been lyzed in both arms for twenty years, ard could not have com. mitted thecrime. But as his family all gala he did it, and he himself said he did, and as there were plenty of ‘‘eye.witnesses,’’ the wr man went cheerfully to jail,and lies there which and the flower in his lapel, almost al- ways a red rose, he wold hardly be Douglass Sherley.
