WabsHINGTORN, D. C., Sept. 6.—Government receipts are still running low this month. The receipts from customs yesterday, $79,- 000, were the lowest forany one day since wartimes. The total revenues for the six Gays of this month aggregate only $8,890,000 or only about $650,000, while the expenditures foot up $4,900,000, or more than $800,000 per Gay. Because the expenditures continue to exceed the receipts, the Treasury balance. which on Sept. 1, including the gold reserve, was $107,000,000, has declined to $105, 500,000. A pointed reduction is noticed in customs receipts, which during this month foot up $1,697,000, while internal revenue receipts exceed them, something unusual, in the ag- gregate $1,876,009. For the fiscal year up to to-day the receipts from internal revenue are only $1,500,000 less than custom receipts. In round figures the expenditures of the United States for the fiscal year to date ex- ceed the receipts $19,000,000, and this excess has been drawn on the available cash bal- ance of the Treasury. As usual, the largest single item of expense continues to be pensions, the payments on this account this month so far being $2, 400, 000. When the Senate met to-day Mr. (Rep.) of Mlinols introduced a bill, which was referred tothe Finance Committee, to repeal all acts providing for the creation or maintenance of the sinking fund. Resolutions were reported from the Com- mittee on Privileges and Elections granting $2,500 each to John B. Allen of Washington, Lee Mantle of Montana and A. C. Beckwith of Wyoming, for their time and expense in prosecuting their claims to seats in the Sen- ate. The resolutions were referred to the Committee on Contingent Kxpenses. The Vice-President at 12:25 p. m. laid before the Senate the resolution of Mr. Voorhees, changing the hour of the meeting of the Senate to 11 o'clock. Mr, Voorhees said: ‘*after full and careful consultation with the friends on this side of the chamber of the bill to repeal the purchasing clause of the Sherman act, and in whose judgment I have been accus- tomed to confide, and whose wishes I cannot disregard, I will ask thatthe resolution go over for the present, believing that If we oc. cupy the time of the Senate carefully and conscientiously that we can make as much speed, perhaps, as by its adoption until at least a later day. The resolution was therefore laid over. When the resolution of Mr. Morgan (Dem.) of Alabama, providing for a joint select committee, was laid before the Senate, Mr. Voorhees gave notice that he would ask anda if necessary move that u be referred to the Finance Committee, A sharp debate occurred between Mr. Voorhees and Mr. Morgan as tothe right of tho latter to occupy the floor. Mr. Morgan asked if the rights had been changed during his absence, and when informed by the chair that they had not, said he was in order. and proceeded to address the senate in support of his resolution. W r. Morgan closed hisgspeech atten minutes to 2. Mr. Voorhees then moved to take up the repeal bill. Objection to that motion was made by Mr. Morgan, Mr. Harris and others, as being an unfair way of displaying the res- olution.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 6.—The Committee on Rules presided over by Speaker Crisp was this morning forced to publicly acknowledge ite defeat in the House in the effort to lead the Democratic majority and secure the adoption of the rule making 100 members a quorum of the Committee of the Whole. When,the House resumed the debate on rules the surprising announcement was made that the Committee on. Rules had decided to abandon, in deference to the ob- —— of some of the prominent Democratic eaders, the rule upon which debate was nding when the House adjourned ast Saturday, making 100 members a quorum in the committee of the whole. Mr. Catchings, in explaining the change of front made by the Rules Committee, said thatso many members on the Democratic side had expressed iheir 8 to the change in the size 0 the quorum in the committee of the whole that the Rules Committee had decided to accept the amend- ment of Mr. Kyle, restoring the size of the uorum toa majority of the House. Auhough the committee yielded he wanted it to be dis- tinctly understood that the committee still Dolle ved the proposed change was in the in- terest of expedition of business. Neverthe - less it was not the purpose of the committee to force such a radical change against what was manifestly strong opposition om the Democratic side. Mr. Oatchings’ statement precipitated general debate of a very lively and enter- taining character, rticipated in by the leaders of both sides. r. Doliver, the young Republican from lowa, took the floor, saying that he was just about to make a speech in favor of the posi- tion from which the Committee on Rules had just announced. The intention of retreat- ing. He was sorry, be said, that the com- mittee had surrendered. The Democratic members ofthatcommittee had been in a fair way to enlighten their colleagues. From the direction in which they had en mov- ing he had almost begun to believe that they had been the unconscious instruments of the *‘odious’’ rules of the Reed Congress, in fact the authors instead of the screamin victims of that Congress. Mr. Doliver sai he counted himself fortunate to have fol- lowed in that Congress the strong leadérship that had restored to the House the absolute rights of self-government. remember, said Mr. Dolver, ‘‘when my friend from Indiana (Mr. Bynum) rushed like a madman to the Speaker’s rostrum, swearing he would die rather han yield and when the gentleman from Kentucky (Mr. Breckinridge) denounced as tyrannical and corrupt as brave aman (Mr. Reed) as ever lived in the tide of times. They ac- cused him of revolution, yet the highest court in the land sus- tained him, they accused him ef usurpation, vet he was upheld infevery rightof every member of the House. They have assalled his personal character, yet he stands to-day with his party likea stone wall behind him. I congratulate him onthe victory that he is winning over old prejudices and the House on the triumph for liberty of action. [ap- Dla use.] CONGRESSIONAL GOSSIP. The Federal Blectſon Laws to Be At- tacked—Capitol Incidents. WASHINGTON, Sept. 6.—As soon as the House has disposed of its rules the Demo- cratic members will begin their long-prom- ised attack on the federal election laws, and when the bill for this repeal has passed the Jiouse it will in all probability be pushed to as prompt a passage as the Republican mem- bers will permit. President Cleveland, itis stated, has given assurance that he will promptly sign such a bill when it comes to him. Even inthe sil- ver debate Mr. Talbott of Maryland asked unanimous consent to introduce such a bill. It was, of course, refused, and he may Intro- duce the bill. Mr. Fitch of New York will probably introduce a similar bill as soon as the rulee have been disposed of. Mr. Spring- er of Lilinois will introduce a duplicate of the bill presented by Senator Hill in the Senate, It is not improbable that there will bea score or more of bills, more or less verbose all having for their purpose the abolition of the entire federal supervision of federal elec- tions. Democratic Senators have already begun to prepare speeches upon this subject. The Republicans will use every means in their power to frustrate the plans of their Democratic opponents in this measure, and itis a foregone conclusion that the general debate on the subject will doubtless prove as lively as any that may engage the House dur- ing this session. Inthe Senate the fight for repeal of the federal election laws has already rogressed 80 far that Senator Hill’s bill has been reported back to the Senate, and stands well up on the calendar. There are three such bills before the body. On the second day of the extra session, Mr. Bate of Tennessee in- troduced a bill for the abolition of federal supervision of elections, which was properly referred to the Committee on Privileges and Elections. On the same day Mr. Hunter of Virginia introduced a bill which was precise- ly similar in its wording to the Bate bill but for some reason r. Hunter added as the third clause to his dil to repeal all statues relating to super- Vision of elections, a bill to repeal the purchase clause of the Sherman act. Mur. Hunton has never given any explanation why he introduced this combination in the Senate. Mr. Hill’s bill contains less than forty words. At his request the Dill was re- ferred tothe Committee of the Judiciary, and a few days later it was reported back to the Senate with a favorable recommenda- tion, so that whatever credit there may ever attach to the parentage of such a Dill Will be ur. Hill’s. > * * The damage to the light-house system along the Southern coast was soserious by last week's hurricane that itis probable the light-house board will have to ask Congress fora special s ppropriation to make the necessary repairs. Reports received at the Treasury Depart- ment show that nearly all the light along the South Carolina cost sustained some dam- age, and while it was swall in some cases, on the whole the system received such a blow that it cannot be well retrieved with- out special appropriaiion. Reports have not been received from some of the remote stations in the South, but it is believed many of the lights, except those near Charleston, have sustained damage. * > . President Cleveland and Secretary Lamont have been considering, it is said, the advis- ability of transferring Assistant Secretary McAdoo ofthe navy to the War Department to be Assistant Secretary of War. Resistant Secretary Grant, who will be relieved when Mr. Lamont’s assistant is appointed, has proved himself well qualified for — — tion, but being a Republican his dis ment is demanded, * . = Office-seekers are pouring into Washington just now from every part of the country.

No exten- sion of time was allowed by Secretary Tracy, and Mr. Malster had appealed to have the penalty remitted on the ground that the changes directed prevented the vessel being finished on time. The vessel was many months overdue in completion. The Secre- tary has taken the matter unde advisement. Secretary Herbert has remitted the unex- pired term of sentence of suspension in the case of Passed Assistant Paymaster Thomas J. Cowie, who was found guilty last October of conduct unbecoming an Officer of the navy, and ordered to be suspended from duty fora —— of five years and toretain his present number on the list of passed as- sistant paymasters.j +. * „ Speaker Orisp is a frequent caller at the Treasury Department. Two or three times a week since the extra session Opened it has been his custom to drop in on Secretary Car- lisle to ascertain from him the changing con- ditions of the monetary situation and to com- municate to r. Cleveland’s financial min- ister such new developments as may have arisen at the capital. Neither the Speaker nor Mr. Carlisle had attached any great sig- nificance to these consultations until lately, when they have found them magnified into a secret and mysterious indi- cations of some contemplated change of pol- icy on the partof the Administration. It is said that Mr. Crisp is now almost afraid to enter the Treasury Building, and Mr. Carlisle does notconceal the annoyance which the exaggerated reports of his doings occasion him. 80 far from intending to hold any momentous conference forthe development of anew line of policy on the State bank uestion, Mr. Carlisle, itis said, had quite orgotten that he had an appointment with Speaker Crisp and Messrs. Hall and Warner on the day in question in point of fact he had invited Secretary Gresham and some other friends to take lunch with him atthe hour named, and onl at the last moment remembered his appoint- ment and begged his friends to excuse him fortwenty minutes. And twenty minutes— just so long and no longer—was the duration of this now celebrated ‘‘conference’’ on the revivai of State bank issues. A similar dis- cussion several months ago gave rise to an assertion widely published at that time, that Mr. Cleveland had deter- mined to recommend to Congress the mposition of an income tax. That rumor had about the same authority and originated from the same source. As recent- ly stated in these dispatches, on the direct authority of a member of the Cabinet, the Admigistration has not discussed in cabinet meeting or out of it any new line of policy on financial matters, and will not enter upon the consideration of any new project until after the Senate has taken action on the question now pending before it. The pro- sal to issue notes for the seignorage on the Siiver bullion in advance of its colnage is an- other matter which is only in tentative shape at present. The matter was brought under Mr. Oarlisle’s notice by prominent officials of the Treasury Department about ten days ago, ana the fact was mentioned at the time. The matter has advanced no further. — = * Although the late war has been a part of the history of the country now for upwards of thirty years, ull the bills incurred by the States are not settled and every Congress sees some proposition introduced on the subject. The most recent bDillof this char- acter was Offered in the Senate yesterday by Mr. Allison of Iowa and authorizes the Sec- retary of the Treasury to auditand report to Congress the costs, charges and expen- ses properly incurred by any State for enrolling, subsisting, arming, equip- ing, paying, transporting, etc., its troops, commissioned or enlisted, for the purpose of alding in suppressing the late insurrection against the United States. A similar bill passed the first session of the Fiftieth Con- gress, andatthat time the Secretary in his written opinion on the proposed measure said that: Such expenses as the United States would have incurred had the Secreta- ry of War raised the troops they should be reimbursed tothe States, and this bill pro- vides for the reimbursement of this class of claims. The committee thereupon recommended the passage of the bill and tt was favorably acted upon. It is probable that the measure now before the Senate will pass that body, but whether it will get further is doubtful. Mr. Allison also introduced a bill to refund to the State of lowa $16,899, the amount paid by the state to the non-commissioned officers and enlisted men of the 2d and 8d Regiments uniforms, which were afterwards discarded by the Government ana the men reguired to purchase blue uniforms in their'stead. Capt. Parker of thé 4th Cavalry, Acting Superintendent of the Iroquois and Gen, Grant National Parks, California, in his an- nual report to the Secretary of the Interior States that there have been no destructive forest fires in the parks during the year, and that trespassers have given no trouble. Capt. Parker speaks of the giant forest as — the most magnificent body of tim- rin the worid. It occupies an area of about elevated Fork. It on an three miles square Marble ow east of the 8 a continuous forest of splendid trees, mainly redwood and sugar pine. Nearly all of the redwoods reach a height of 800 feet from the ground and are from fifteen to twenty feet in diameter. To preserve this great natural curiosity and to make it ac. cessible to the public a good road is essential, and he recommends that $80,000 be appropri- ated for the purpose of constructing such a road. Healsorecommends that bridges be built across the main Kawaeh and North Fork Rivers; that a wire fence be dullt around Drake park; that the two parks be consoli. dated and that the many fine streams in the park be stocked with fish.

Outer Door of the Throu gh Safe Blown Open With Dynamite. — THE ROBBERS FORCED TO RETREAT BEFORE SECURING ANY BOOTY. James M. Pennock, Who Is Supposed to Be One of the Robbers, Captured by Dr. T. H. Bond and the Trainmen—The Robbers Boarded the Train at Chelten- ham—The Express Oar a Bad Wreck. The St. Louis & San Francisco passenger train No. 8, which left this city at 8:30 last hight, was stopped at a point known as the Sand Out,“ two miles east of Pacific, by train robbers, Three men were engaged in the attempted robbery. James M. Pennock, an ex-employe of the road, was captured near the spot shortly after the robbery with two loaded revolvers‘in his possession and is par- tially identified by the engineer of the train as one ot the robbers. No plunder was se- cured, owingto the fact that the local safe was empty, andthe bandits failed in their attempt to blow the through safe with dyna- mite, The attempt was a particularly bold one, and it was more through accident than any- thing else that no momey or valuables were secured. The men implicated in the attempt showed no disposition to shed blood, if such a course could be avoided, but their com - mands, emphasized at the mugzggles of re- volvers, were delivered in such a manner as to lead to the supposition that they would brook no interference, The pas- sengers were not molested, the approach ofa freighttrain and the imminent danger ofarear end collision @ffectually stopping any design the men may have had in this di. rection, GOT ON AT CHELTENHAM. The three robbers boarded the- train at Cheltenham. They rode on the front end plat- form of the mail car and discussed and made preparations for the hold up regardless of the presence of four tramps who were steal- nga. ride on the game car, These men, Ernest Reisch, Charles Meyer, William Hall and J. W. Neely, were enabled to observe the men closely and can give an excellent description of the robbers. They are held as witnesses. Neely says that the robbers were on the train when de and his companion boarded it at Valley Park, a small station about eighteen miles from St. Louls, and sadysthat they were at first disposed to re- sent the presence of the others. When the train pulled out the three put their heads to- getherand held an earnest conversation in a low tone. After leaving Allentom fe three men com- menced te disguise the Vos. “Two of them — linen dusters on, and then all three tied andkerchiefs over their faces. The tallest one of the party then sad Go, and himself and a man who is said to have not been over 5 feet 2 inches, climbed over the tender of the engine into the cab, and placing revolvers at the heads of Engineer John Weckerly and Fireman Donahoe commanded them to stop the train. In obedience tothe mandate the engineer at once applied the air brakes and brought the train toa standstill atthe mouth the cut. All four of climbed from the the round, where they joined by the third robber, who up to this time had remained calmly on the platform of the mail car. He at once assumed command and ordered the engineer to go to the door of the express car and demand admis- sion. To this the engineer at first demurred, but when a revolver was placed directly under his nose with an injunction to stop such foolishness if he wished to go home alive, he decided that the best course was to comply. In response to his knock Express Messenger Campbell, who claims he thoughtsthatthe stop had been made at Pacific, at once Opened the door to und himself looking down the muzzies of six wicked-looking guns. He had no time to re- sist or to retreat, andthrewup his hands in a hurry when so ordered. About this time it began to dawn upon the trainmen and some of the passengers that something was wrong. Several of them, headed by Conductor Kerrigan, started up the track to investigate. They were met by one of the bandits, who gruffly ordered them to return, a command which was executed in double quick time when a bullet was fired over their heads. The sound of the shooting effectually settied the ae of resistance, and the robbers were allowed to proceed in their work without further trouble. BLEW OPEN THE SAFE. While the train was being held up Engineer Wickerly protested, saying: No. 85 is only ten minutes behind us, and somebody must be sent back to flag her before she hits the curve or there will be a collision.“ One of thetrain crew who bad come up was then told by the robber who acted as leader to go and flag 8 before it reached A the direction of the leader other two bandits and the engineer and fireman climbed into the express carand opened the local safe, but found notbing. The third robber joined them, carryinga sack from which he pro- duced several sticks of dynamite having long fuses attached. These he placed under the through safe and igniting the fuses told the others to get out of danger, which they lost no time in doing. In a few seconds the explosion came, wrecking the ear and scattering boxes and packages in every di- rection, A large hole was blown in the floor of the car and the sides were scorched and splintered. The safe stood the snock well. The dcor was biown off, the inner door remained intact and resisted all efforts of the robbers to force it open. The ex- plosion had set fire to some paper in the car andina short time a lively blaze was in progress which threatened to consume car and contents. This fact coupled with the sound ofan approaching freight train and the danger of a collision Convinced the men that further efforts at robbery would be dangerous if not useless. The engineer was told to pull out as quickly as possible, and the men started on a run over the fields and were — gg — — time in vying the spot, an starte up 80 . that the conductor, the express mes- and several passengers were left be- At the Orst water tank a large stream was turned on the burning express r., which soon ap eee the flames, not, however, without destroying a consid- able quantity of the express matter.

Atter the shot was fired Hall and Neely were for getting off the train and starting for the woods, but Meyers and Relische refused to leave the front of the car, claiming if they did they might get shotat.

LOUIS OFFICERS SENT OUT. The first news of the robbery was sent out over the railroad wires from Pacinc to Gen- eral Supt. Wentworth of the Pacific and wa from Wilbur F. Spaulding, General Freight Claim Agent of the road. It announced the fact of the burning of the car, the hold-upand the capture of Pennock. The police were notified about 10:30 but were un- able to send anybody tothe scene until the fast mail train for the West left at3 o’clock this morning, when Assistant Chief Reedy sent Detectives Dotzman end. Kelleher to PacifiC. Whenthe detectives arrivedethey found a crowd of Pacific citizens guard- ing the four tramps and Jim pen- nock, the Frisco depot having deen turned intoa jail. As soon as daylight per- mitted this morning the detectives, assisted by Detective Lally, made a search over the ground where the robbery occurred. The officers were rewarded by finding twocaps such as worn by railroad men, one soft hat, a pair of overalls and a linen duster. Two handkerchiefs were also found, one of which had done duty as a mask. At 9 o’clock this morning the officers wired Chief Harrigan of the find and also the request of the Marshalof Pacific that the men arrested be brought to St. Louls. The telegram stated that there was a freight train east at9:30andif word to Dring the mento St. Louis was received in time they would take thattrain. The Chief’s rome was to the effect that the department would do alj in its power to aid the county authorities. PENNOCK, THE SUSPECT. James Marion Pennock, the man arrested on suspecion, is well known among railroad men and does not bear the best reputation, being of a quarrelsome disposition. fully six feet in height and weighs over 200 unds. His mother and father live a Suilivan. Pennock had trouble about a year agoand was sus- pected of having bad a hand in some crooked work nearSullivan. He has carried the two revolvers found upon him for about a year. Chas. Meyers is a workingman and for- merly lived at St. James. For some time he has been in St. Louis. Ernest Reische is a friend of Meyers and was also beating his way to 8t. James when arrested. J. W. Neely is the brother of a fireman on the Frisco and lives at Springfield, Mo., which place he was going to at the time. Wm. Hall is from Caldwell, Kan., and claims to be a railroad man. He was beating his way to that point. BELIEVE PENNOCK WAS ONE. General Supt. Wentworth of the Frisco is thoroughly convinced that Pennock had a hand in last night’sattemptedrobbery, ‘‘In the first place, said Mr. Wentworth, what right had Pennock to be riding blind baggage on a passenger, whenifhe wanted to ali he had todo was to ask for a pass and get it. Then what was he doing with two guns? His wife says that he always carried one gun but last night when arrested he ha two, one of which showed that it was an old one, and a brand new one. He was ready enough to get up andattempt to fight when asked to come out of hiding by people looking for train robbers but when three men were blowing upa car he ran away with two guns without firing a shot.

Mrs. Elien Bauckham arrived at the Union Depot this morning from Covington, Ky., in pirsuit of her husband, George Bauckham, who, she states, deserted herin Covington and took hertwochildren with bim. One of them isa bady 1 year old. She thinks that he has been attracted by a young woman with whose family the Bauckhams boarded in Covin nm. The family has gore to Den- ver and Mrs. Bauckham thinks that her hus- band has gone with them. Mrs. Bauckham said her husband isan electrician, and was employed by a street railway company in Covington and earneda good ‘salary. They had been living in Covington only three months, having come from Chicago. Bauck- ham was in Covington a month before his wife came and boarded with the family re- ferred to, whose name is Kalkbrenner. Bauckham continued boarding with the Kalkbrenner family and engaged board for his wife and children. In the Kalk brenner family there aresix children, the oldest of whom is Amelia, aged 18 years, whom Mrs. Bauckham suspects of being the cause of heg husband’s Geserting her. She has no proof of this other than her suspicions. According to her story her hus- band deserted her last Monday night a week ago. She retired about ll o’clock and fell — When she awoke her husband and the children were gone. The oldest child is Bie years old. Mrs. Bauckham was pros- trated by the shock and has been sick ever since. She has just come out of the hospital. She had a little money but spent it all before she went to the hospital. The Mayor of Cov- ington, she stated, furnished her with a ticket to Denver, Dut she has no money. When she arrived at the depot this morning she was almost exhausted, having eaten nothing since yesterday morning. Assistant United States District Attorney M. M.

Drion Exonerated of the Charge of Forgery. United States Commissioner Crawford had a queer case in his court to-day. Marie Drion was the defendantand Henry George Grandgirard the plaintif®. The accusation against Mrs. Drion was the forgery of Grand- girarda’s indorsementto a money order for $32, sent from Europe to Grandgirard last February. All the parties to the case were Alsatians and spoke and wrote French and German, although they were sadly deficient in English. They livd in Carondelet, Grandgirard beingafisherman. He used to board with Mrs. Dricon, and testified that he did not receive the money orderor sign his indorsement to it, averring that Mrs. Dricon got the order, indorsed it and collected the money. John B. Dempsey, attorney forthe defendant, submitted several letters written by Grandgirard to establish the similarity between the chirography of the indorsed signature and the letters. Mrs. Drion, testi- fy ng in her own defense, became quite ex- cited and spoke successively in French, Ger- man and English. She stated that she re- ceived the letter and gave it to Grandgirard, who opened it and saw thatit wasa money order. She alleged that he indorsed it in her presence and in the presence of her two children, Marie ana Henry Drion. The boy and rl supported their mother’s testimony and Commissioner Crawtord ac- uitted t defendant of the charge. Mrs. rion’s attorney stated that her prosecu- tion by Grandgirarda for forgery was a piece of spite work because Mrs. Drion and her husband got judgment against him on Aug. 26 in Justice Kane’s court for 800 francs, the principal and interest of note which Grandgirard gave them in ‘Alsace seven years ago. The constable seized Grandgirard’s nete. lines, hooks and fishing paraphernalia to satisfy the judgment. in revenge Grandgirard sought unish Mrs. Dreon for forgery, the defendant's attorney alleges. ° To-Morrow Is Lovers’ Day at the Ex.

The lessons are first selected by the American committee, and subsequently submitted to the com- mittee, who have the priyllege to sug- gest such changes as may be helpful to thelr people, Ihe lessons are then revised by the American Committee and published to the world. Owing to the absence of the six American members, the lessons for 1896 will probably not be selected until next spring, for the same reason, and because the mem- bers of the committee are anxious to return to their homes on account of their already lengthy sojourn in the vy 0 Several hundred of the delegates remained in the city to-day to enjoy the excursion, on the steamer Pargoud, underthe auspices of the Woman’s Training School.

_@RTICLES CARRIED AWAY. The Family Were Absent at the Time—A " Wegro Geen at the Door—About the Zewis-Sharpe Elevator and Stole a Watch. Abold robbery was perpetrated about 12 d' clock yesterday at the house, 3226 Choutsau avenue, the residence of Harry G. Le Roy, foreman for the St. Louis Lime Co, at 8500 Gratiot street. Mrs. Le Roy had gone down town at 10:30 o'clock in the morning, and when she re- turned at 1:30 p. m. she found the house ransacked. She had given ner key to a neighbor, Mrs. McNamara, and about 12 o'clock the children of Mrs. McNamara com- ing from school passed the Le Roy residence and saw a negro standing by the door on the porch. They told him Mr. Le Roy was not ‘Jat nome and he went away. They thought nothing of this incident, as they believed him to be a driver working for Le Roy. Some time later Mrs. McNamara passed the house and found the window broken and looking closer saw the door open and every thing inside turned topsy-turvy. Frightened, she returned to her house and waited for her busband, who came home soon after and went over tu the Le Roy place and found the house looted. About this time Mrs. Le Roy returned and an investigation showed that Mr. Le Roy’s new summer suit of clothes, a winter sult, a new chinchilla overcoat, a pillow- slip and, as Mr. Le Roy said this morning.“ everything except the furniture’’ had been stolen. The excitement and fear caused a relapse of a dangerous ill- pews from which Mrs. Le Roy had 4 The family are moving ay m the premises.

He Insists on His Right to Register the Falmetto“ Trad> Mark. WASHINGTON, D. O., Sept. 6.—If the Com- missioner of Patents had been acquainted with the never-say-die qualities of Gov. Tillman he might have known that the Gov- ernor of South Carolina would not abandon his efforts to register the historic watch- word **Palmetto’’ as a trademark for State distillery lig uors. Gov. Tillman does not at all acquiesce in the CommissSoner’s decision turning him down, nor does he fancy the manner in which Mr. Seymour overhauled him and his liquor law. is attorneys have takena formal * from the frst sitting. It nettled Gov. TIII- man thatthe chief of a Government bureau should seem to criticise the sovereign State of South Carolina and his booze distributihg scheme even — 7 so he talked back with a good deal of SP ce. In their brief for the State the Washington lawyers, who have been in extensive tele- graphic communication with the Governor, reviewed the Commissioner’s ruling with freedom and vigor. They tell him in effect that he got outside of his jurisdiction and — not pass criticisms on the State om cials. The attorneys for the State, referring to the Commissioner's construction ofthe dis- pensary statute, say: True, the dispensary act undertakes to regulate the liquor traffic only within the State; the act does not assume to apply to anything to be done outside the limits of thre state. No State probably would be absurd eneugh to enact a law designed to reguiate the sale of {utoxicating liquors as a beverage outside of its own limits. The State of South Carolina, by the dispensary act, legislated, and pretty effective- ly, too, as to the sale of liquors within its borders: bat it did not by the same act, nor has it by any other, fenced itself about with a Chinese wall of ex- clusion against foreigners. If a State can sell liquor at all it can sell like any other trader—to all ber- sons whatsoever. without regard to the question whether they live withig er without its boundaries. The attorneys forthe State then deny the ge ofthe Commissioner to construe the South Carolina statute, and,in the course of their argument, continue: It is no more ® province or prerogative of the Commissioner of Patents to determine the lawful- ness of the trade lu coanection with which a trade mark is issued thas it is of asimple recorder of deeds to investigate and pass upon the value er sufficienc ofthe munimentor title offered for record befor he shall record it.

The opening night will also be Directors’ night and they willall be there with their families and friends. The cere- monies will open in the Music Hall with the overture from ‘‘Semiramide’’ by Sousa’s Band, Then ex-Gov. E. O. Stanard will de- liver a brief address, as will also Gov. W. J. Stone and Mayor Cyrus P. Walbridge. As to what is going on outside inthe naves in the meantime much could be said. The exhibits are nearly all in place and ready and the pop- 2 stands are being burnished up in fine style. Asmall army of darkies with mops and buckets made short work of the dirt on the floors and paint-work and wainscot parting slap with the feather duster. In the basement grimy mechanics in overallsand jumpers were setting and adjusting machines which would do anything from cutting hair to saw- ing up railroad iron. The fish tanks will probably be filled up this afternoon with distilled water, such as is now to be used at all the free drinking places. Someofthe fish are on hand, but not all of them as yet. The hardware stores have made an upusually large set of dis- plays and great ingenuity has been displayed in the arrangement of various tools and hardware so as to form designs and emblems of infinite variety. Beside their hardware stock the modern pneumatic bicycle is liber- ally displayed as is also the pneumatic-tired sulky. The photographers have gone to great pains this year to make a good display, and to judge from the glimpses had under the sheets which covered them their efforts bave been successful. Ihe art galleries will speak for themseives, and it isabsolutely mecessary to see the pictures to appreciate the mony | and force of the individual and combined pictures. Some of the decorations in the way of flags and bunting used in the Sunday-school Con. vention will be leftin the Music Hall fora day or two, and then the splendid hall will be left as it was built soas to Dring out the full effect ofthe music, which would be partly weakened were much bunting left hanging.

New YorK, Sept. 6.—Andrew Carnegie of Pittsburg, who reached this country from Europe last Saturday, does not approve of revision of the tariff at the present time. If the House goes forward torevise the duties on imports, that will certainly delay the return of prosperity. Even if the changes about tobe made were changes for the bet- ter they could not fail to disturb many indus- tries and spread distress, Pig iron isa most important factor in the situation. The Southern pig iron finds its market toa great extent in New England and on the Atlantic seaboard. It is hard pressed by foreign pig iron, which pays but little ocean freight. A decided reduction in the duties must neces- sarily restrict the product of Alabama and ‘lennessee. Great reductions have been taking place in salaries and labor in Pittsburg. It is sad, but there is nothing else for manufacturers to do than to suffer loss in this emergency. The question is not how much the manufactu rer can make, but how little must he lose? It is the same with labor. It is sad, but I do not see how it can be otherwise than we will have a great many idle men in Pittsburg during the winter. Iam sure, however, that the manufacturers of Pittsburg will arrange to dividetheir men and give each set a part of the work that can be secured. Ofcourse nobody will be allowed to suffer for food. I fear the demand for rails until spring will be small, but in the end all will be well. DR. MARES BITTES, Hospital Superintendent peri-nce With a Snapping Horse. Dr. Heine Marks, Superintendent of the City Hospital, yesterday had a chance to dis- play his skill at poulticing and bandaging upon himself. He had just made a call at the office of the. Health Commissioner, and was walking out the little passage way by the wagon sheds when a horse be- longing to the Bullding Commissioner's office reached his head out and tried to bite offa chunk of the doctor’s shoulder. Fortunately the doctor had a coat with pretty heavy pads in the shoulders or the horse would certainly have taken out a piece of the flesh. Asit was he lifted the doctor clean off his fest. When seen at the hospital to-day Dr. Marks had his shoulderina big bandage and said it was feeling quite stiff and sore.

THE silver im the Senate should on between dis- eussion and obstruction. The one is a necessary condition ot free government, while the other serves no other purpose than to enable an interested minority to defeat the popular will. Tux greatest of permanent Expositions will open to-night. Gov. Stone and Mayor Walbridge will lend official dignity to the inauguration of the season and to the first of a series of delightful programmes, in which the famous Sousa and his splendid band will be a leading feature. n Ir seems 80 easy to rob railway trains that it is remarkable that so many of them are allowed to goon unmolested. No re- sistance whatever is made, and the robbers have only to proceed as they would in any ordinary undertaking. A burglar enter- ing a house is in imminent peril compared with the rogue who climbs over the tender. THE New York authorities have taken steps to give prominence and influence to a harmless crank. They have had Emma Goldman arrested and indicted for ‘‘un- lawful assemblage.’’ With the grievance of arrest and punishment for silly speeches to howl about the Goldman woman will have some chance of inciting an ignorant mob to riot. Ir the Baltimore claim agents are play- ing no game in handling the mail of pen- sioners their excitement over the action of the Post-office Department in institut- ing an investigation is not easily ac- counted for. If they are dealing honorably with the veterans and the Government they should be only too happy to have light thrown upon their methods. a ne, DEMOCRATIC DUTY. If proof is needed that the Democrats who are fighting the unconditional repeal ofthe Sherman law are defending a Re- publican protection bargain, it is fully supplied by the story of the way in which the measure was forced upon the Repub- lican leaders by the representatives of silver mining. The testimony of the striking of the bargain is credited to Senator Jones of Nevada. The proposition to purchase silver to the amount of 4,500,000 ounces a month was flatly rejected in conference committee until Senator Jones threatened to kill the McKinley bill with silver votes, which brought the tariff pro- tectionists to the terms of the silver pro- tectionists and the bargain by which the people’s interests were sacrificed to the greed of special interests was struck. That Democratic Senators pledged to destroy protection should join in a con- spiracy to compel the country to suffer the ravages of one of the monsters created by this villainous protection alliance is a remarkable and disgraceful surrender of principle. There is not a shadow of excuse for Democratic opposition to repeal now. The vote in the House and the known attitude of a majority of the Senate render the op- position mere obstruction of the popular will. With the repeal of the Sherman law and the adoption of the reported sugges- tion of the President for the coinage of the Treasury bullion the country will be safe from the danger of deficiency or currency contraction until Congress can finda way to redeem the Democratic pledge to give us honest bimetallism. To vote for repeal in the shortest possible time is the first duty of Democratic Sen- ators. —_~* 1 THE GRAVES CASE. The case of Dr. T. Thatcher Graves rep- resents either an instance of fiendish in- j ustice or a curious study of human nat- ure. If a moiety of the charges made in the doctor’s farewell letters against the ad- ministration of justice in Denver and against Prosecuting Attorney Stevens is true the one isa grotesque and abomina- ble travesty and the otheradevil in hu- man shape. Onthe other hand, if they are false and Dr. Graves was guilty of the murder of Mrs, Barnaby his conduct pre- sents an interesting but repulsive view of human nature. Although the conviction in court and the evidence afford strong presumption of guilt, there is room for speculation as to whether the suicide and the final state- ment of Graves support the theory of guilt or innocence. On the one side it may be urged that an innocent man would not commit suicide, but, strong in the con- sciousness of rectitude, in hope and desire for vindication, would fight on to the end; that the act of suicide was confession and the final statement the attempt to win post mortem sympathy, give his reputation the benefit of sustained hypocrisy and ob- tain revenge. But it may be urged with reason that the spirit of an in t man may be broken by overwhelming persecution. Dr. Graves had spent all of his money in the first trial, and had another to fight with increased odds against him and without means. Itis a plausible supposition that, hopeless of winning, he believed he could vindicate his reputation by an oath sealed with death. There is a strong inclination to believe; that the most infamous villain abrinks Foing to death with the crime of ury fresh on his soul. The truth is, the reasons on each side fairly balance each other, There is noth- at be SN a sae — 1 me * . on | there g 0 + ' teat manner would shrink from per- jury and hypocrisy in the face of death. If Graves was innocent his case is a piti- able instance of cruelty and injustice. If he was guilty it ismerely a glimpse of hell, the effect of which is heightened by one redeeming t and act the trace of aban- doned virtue and the hint, of a lost para- dise—his love and solicitous care for his wife. 1 1 _ VENDICATION NECESSARY. The evidence so far submitted to the Po- lice Board concerning the Maloney kul- ing makes a black case against Patrolman Lyons. It indicates that Lyons was under the influence of liquor when he shot Ma- loney, that the shooting was entirely un- warranted, that Lyons was the aggressor, that although charged with the duty of arresting immoral women plying their vocation on the streets, he associated with them, drank with them and accompanied one to a disreputable house. Unless this testimony is refuted the dis- charge of Lyons from the police force and his trial on a charge of murder are impera- tive, but these proceedings do not exhaust the necessities of the case. Lyons was ex- onerated by the Coroner’s fury. How did it happen that none of the overwhelming evidence against Lyons submitted in the Police Board trial found its way into the Coroner’s office? Was it the fault of the Coroner or of the Police Department? This point must be settled. It has been freely charged that certain patrolmen used their power and in- fluence to suppress testimony against Lyons by threats and persuasion. This charge is supported by inference at least in the testimony, The transfer of certain patrolmen from Lyons’ distriet to another district was a preliminary step to the in- vestigation of the case and the trial of Lyons by the Police Commissioners, The use of the police power to suppress testimony and defeat the ends of justice is one of the worst offenses against good government. The shielding of guilty offi- cials in any manner is intolerable. Chief Harrigan and the Police Commis- sioners have an imperative duty to per- form in this matter. They must sift the charges to the bottom and vindicate the Police Department by proof of innocence or the punishment of the guilty. — n MGR. BSATOLLI’S ADDRESS. The address of the papal delegate, Mgr. Satolli, at the Catholic Congress is likely to begome historic. It is an eloquent and forceful plea for justice in social relations and fora resolute adherence to right in human affairs. Denominational differ- ences disappear in face of this plea for a —" common Christian principle—a principle recognized as the base of all morality by Catholic and Protestant alike. The Archbishop acknowledges in this address the uses of liberty as an agency in the moral emancipation and elevation of the race. ‘‘In the name of Leo XIII., said he, ‘‘I salute the great American Re- public, andI call upon the Catholics of America to go forward, in one hand bear- ing the book of Christian truth and in the other the Constitution of the United States.’’ There is nothing equivocal in this. Protestants and Catholics may well take it to heart and accept it asa guide in political and social action. The address abounds in wise counsel which indicates a thorough understanding of the needs of the hour, the problems of liberty and the great opportunity afforded for the solution of vexed questions by American institutions. It all revolves about the conception of justice. ‘‘Jus- tice,’’ says the Archbishop, ‘‘is before all.“ © @ „ „This must not be a world of slavery where the multitude live only for the benefit of the few.’’ And in the conditions created and guaranteed by the constitution are the means for realizing this ideal. The sentiment of this address will be heartily echoed by all Americans, It will go far to reassure the public mind and quiet apprehension concerning the pur- poses of the delegate and the significance of his mission, There is no hint of politi- cal action or ambition. Only justice and mercy as the ends of religion and morality seem to be in the delegate’s mind, , — m, — FOLLOWING close upon a suggestion by a New York evening newspaper there come reports of Hastern banks refusing accommodations to their Western and Southern correspondents because of the course of Western and Southern Senators and representatives on the silver question. The latest example is that mentioned by Senator Vance of North Carolina, who pro- duced proof of such refusals in the Senate, The banks cannot choose a better way to „get themselves disliked.’’ They cannot more surely intensify the popular feeling against them and invoke a whirlwind of public displeasure, They may be night in their contention, but that is not the ques- tion. Right or wrong, the people will not tolerate any coercion from banks in poli- tics and will make it warm for any institu- tion which undertakes to prevent a free vote in Congress. AN attempt to ena a valuable street rail- way franchise running fifty years in New Orleans yesterday broke down because there was only ene biddef, he representing the syndicate already in control of the road.

This well illustrates the curious con- money, which might have been in the banks earning more money and serving as a basis for legitimate business enterprise, waslocked up in safety deposits, where it was kept free from harm and free from good. But the tide has turned, happily] Both banks and people are recovering con- fidence, and it willnot be many weeks before the currents of business will run with all their wonted force. WHEN the feminine owner ofa vicious dog in Brooklyn learned that it was to be killed, she sobbingly broke out n court: I love him better than my life, and if you take him from me it will kill me! He is not gullty and should not die! I will pay for the best physician in New York or Brooklyn to examine the boy, and if he has been bitten to attend to him. I will pay his expenses at the Pasteur Insti- tute! Only save my Fido!’’ The boy, who had suffered from the bite, did not seem to excite the lady’s sympathy intheleast. Be- ing only a human being he was probably not entitled to it. The dog was killed, and it is safe to say that if hydrophobia should de- velop in the boy, Fido’s mistress will not go looking up Goctors to attend him in his last moments. We have our train robbers in the West, but inthe East they would be considered rather slow. When the dead of the Long Island Railroad disaster were yet warm thieves rified their clothing, broke ear-rings from their ears, wrenched jewels from their an- gers, and turned their pockets inside out. * BaRTHOLD!I’S statue of AAderty ; leaks in rainy weather, and M.

This fact, however, is merely circumstantial. Nobody supposes that any of the ist of September crowd at the Merchants’ Exchange had anything to do with the hold - up. ONLY 1,000 of the 10,000 Chicago clamorers accepted city work when it was offered them after the riot. It will not be a matter of great difficulty for the nation to protect its real workers.

To Increase Our Trade. From the New York WORLD. Senator Sherman says: We ought toen- courage in every possible way the ex porta- tion ot our products, althoughI cannot see precisely how it can be done. Two or three ways of increasing our for- eign trade ought to be obvious. It is an old saying that those who want friends must show themselves friendly.’’ If we want more trade we must show a dispo- sition to trade on fair terms. No nation in Europe will buy of us if it can get what it wants elsewhere on anything like as favor- able terms, This disposition has been cre- ated dy our hostile tariff laws, which were avowedly framed to keep out foreign products, It takes two to trade. Commerce between countries is based on mutual advantage in the exchange of commodities. How can we expect to ‘sincrease the exportation of our products,’’ except as foreign nations must have food, while we raise high the barriers of our prohibitory tariffs, based on the idea that commerce ig war’’—that trade must be like a jug handle, all on one side!“ One other way to increase our exports is to untaxthe raw materials of our manufac- turers, placing them on equal terms with their foreign competitors as to the cost of production. Unshackle commerce and it will take care of itself. MEN OF MARE.

My servant then emptied the stuff out, ut it into another bucket and 4he cart river kindly dumped it into his wagon; this was done by my servant after our bocket (which is metal and oes tight) was full to Overnowing.

WOLFF, No. 8081 Locust street. March to the Ballot- Box. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: The marching of thousands of the most useful citizens through the streets of this city was a magnificent sight. Much as united Iabor has accomplished it has still done preliminary work only. To solve the labor problem much has yet to be done, and to do it labor must of necessity enter the political arena. Labor is aware of the fact that it is pushed against the wall, and as a rule it blames the employer for it. But Has it ever occurred to labor that some one may be behind the voy ce 3 if you please — o pushes Very often the employer is ‘the victim of the same environments as the laborer, and in such cases to make war against the em- ployer is unjust. The individual who holds the key to the store- house of nature pushes the employer as such, he in turn pushes the laborer and the latter ts going to push whom? If labor desires to de emancipated it must attack the fellow who has possession of the key and either compel bim to give it up, to open the door or make him pay for the priv- lege of withholding It. In solid phalanx let the laborers march to the polls, cast their votes in favor ot ‘equal rights for all, special pri ann to aes." and the world is theirs. Tom. Finance and Financiers. To the Editor of the Post- Dispatch: Your excerpt from Arthur Brisbane’s Arena article, in Sunday’s Post-Disratcs, in which he takes an identical stand with myself on the currency question, by the way, is dis- missed by you with the curt comment, to wit: The methods recommended by the author will probably fall to meet the general appro- val of financiers.’’ Have not, I ask, the methods of those finan- Ciers failed to meet the a proval of the world and every money userinit? Have not the methods of those financiers brought about periodical panics, one recurrent about with every. rising generation? Have not the methods of those financiers generated a system which makes the anom- aly of a ‘‘money market“ essential and makes money so unstable that the different Kinds fluctuate constantly, as com with each other, and makes them all to va as compared with products and their own chasing power? Now that the methods of these e have falled, as no sane man will question nor one can ga nsay, is it not rather a rec- ommendation than the implied condemna- tion to any methods that fall to meet their Views?

Written for the Posr-Disrarcu. What appeals to me as my most interesting experience as a writer occurreda winter or two ago ina little lumber hamlet of the hill region of Kentucky. For a moment, at least, it was quite thrilling—rather too thrilling, indeed, to be useful as material to me, with my strait and simple art standards. I have a grovellingifondness for reprodueing only the usual features of life, and this little episode, though it was pitifully commonplace in its setting, had about it something that was not only unusual but nearly sublime. I had gone down to the village in question with ambitious design of seeing a ‘‘tide’’ in the river. Tides are peculiar to wintry months. They are useful to lumbermen and incidentally to writers, but they have their unpleasant features. My little hill hamlet, having doffed its green livery, was cowled in dark mad. Rain sheeted the air. Theinn seemed to be saturated, and the roar of the river on the skirts of the town corroborated the inn-Keeper's assurance concerning the magnitude of the special ‘‘tide’’ which was in progress. **She’s booming tor all that’s in her, de- clared the inn-keeper, an elderly man, who had enjoyed, during the previous summer, the happy privilege of being useful to me in many ways. They look for the boom to bust to-night. Thousands of dollars afloat. You see that man by the stove? He's one of the big timber fellers from up North. Just come down. He’ll lose heavyif she busts, Say, take a look at that feller! You remem- ber me telling you about the boom-house man's daughter? Well, that feller—he was the man—he was Idy’s beau. 90 L remember the story. Ona certain day in the previous June, I was standing at the head of a mill chute looking sunken river. Suddenly a dug-out shot round the bond. The man in the rude thing seemed only half human. He was bent and shrunken, with a clay-colored skin, matted red hair and sucha woe-begone vacuity of face as me. The innkeeper had related that this poor creature lived alone in the boom- hause, a shed on the river clit, and that duty was to cook for loggers’ in time of „Used to own a nice little farm up yonder only Gown at the „He's seen trouble,’’ said the inn-keeper. 82 bed me a as I observed the man "py the sto story lay fifteen years behind him, a chin which made me believe the pe had a an honest chronicler.

The reports of the ambulance corps who pay frequent visits to the different camps, show that a number A few fatalities and few cases of severe Iiliness. Reports from the railroads centering here show that they have brought in more than 200,000 persons in the past three days, but say they were compelled to lay down,’’ as one of the superintendents expressed it, be- cause of their inability to haulall who want to como, for there were not enough cars to be had. This will be one of the busiest days of the veterans. The first session of the encamp- ment proper began this morning at 9:50 o’clock as well as the @first session of the Relief Corps Convention and the Daughters ofthe Regiment, This afternoonthere will be scores of regimental and alivision re- unions, and to-night there will be a dozen or more public and private receptions, the out- side entertainments being electric and nat- on displays, the most important reports made to the 2 Encampment was thatof the „ sey on Legislation dy Chalir- The purpose of the appointment mmittee was todo something to > the — 2 — of the two federal totally disregarded for many roviding that those dis- from military or naval services by of wounds or sickness incurred in the Uns of duty should havea preference in ap- tment to public offices, and the other one recommending those honorably discharged men by reason of expiration of their terms of service or the close ofthe war to the bust ness men and firms of the country for lucra- tiveemployment. On this subject the report says: * Atthe time of makiag oar report to the National Encampment at Washington, we succeeeded in get- ting before Congress a measure, whieh if enacted inte a law would have effected a sure cure. This was reported te the Senate with an amendment that Gestroyed its value for the parpose we had in view. Against this weentered an earnest protest. It was reported tothe House, however, with an amend- ment making it ne bil pe in the way of protection to veterans than the bill prepared by your committee, and this we aceepted The report details the failure of all these efforts and adds: Letters and telegrams to the gentleman who in- troduced the Senate bill and to the chairman of the committee of that body, which had reported it back **with an amendment showing how not to do ft, sived no attention. Perhaps they were unworthy of notice. The report, after discussing in detail the efforts to effect this legislation, concludes: The Grand Army of the Repubiie—united «es one in a comnon cause—assisted by the fons of Veterans and all patriotic persons must attack the citadel where the later day enemies are intrenched, charg- ing itagein amd again and never cease advancin charging and firing uatil they have won the vietory: Your committee is pleased to announce that W N to —8 early consideration of H. as amended in committee, but which aden inthe Fifty-second Congress, it * already béen introduced in both branc he Fifty- If 2 vigi- third Congress, now in session.

COTTON IN THE sOUTH. It Ie Worth Money and the Have Lots of It. New Yorn, Sept. 6.—Announcement that All the banks in Memphis, Tenn., had been notified by their New York connections that they were prepared to ship all the money necessary to move the cottoncrop caused comparatively little comment in the trade. Vice-President Anderson Gratz of the Amer!i- Can Manufacturing Co., which supplies 60 per cent of all the bagging used for cotton in this country, in discussing the outlook, said: In the Memphis section they have just de- gun to move the cotton, In the South. Geor- — and Texas sections, they began to move he duct two weeks ago. think the financtal stringency has been felt less in the South than anywhere else. We have every confidence in our customers and are taking their notes freely. The cotton growers are well off at this time, because when they be- gan to harvest the 1882-98 crop they could not get credit, and consequently could not sell out in advance. Now they own thecotton outright and there is a good market for it. The outlook in the South Is very encouraging and money is now comparatively easy.’’ Planters WORLD'S FAIR.

Come, III., Sept. 6.—Jacob Schaefer and Frank C. Ives were matched to play at 14 inch balk line for $2,600a side at a late hour last night. The match was the outgrowth of the claiming of the championship cup and title by Schaefer.

This is the result of the wrangle over a match in Paris in July of last year. BALTIMORE PURSE STRINGS. They Are Always Unloosened for the Pur- chase of Good Players. Ned Hanlon, since he has taken hold of the Baltimores, has managed to keep the Orioles wellupinthe race. That Baltimore appre- ciates a club that will fight shy of the tall end position is evident by the looseness of the management's purse strings. Ned captured „he Count Tony Mullane by the outlay Of a pretty penny, and Frank Ward’s release from Cincinnati! was not in the nature ofa gift either. The buying of Walter Brodie was abold piece of financial work, as several. clubs were spiritea bidders in the auction. The Baltimore club will not have reason to regret the stiff price they paid for him. Hanlon’s latest dicker was the signing of Bob Gilks, an ex-spider who has been play- ingin Mobile this season. Gilks isa hard hitter and can travel in fast company. THREE STRAIGHT TO BOSTON.

The Browns will open up with Brooklyn at Bporte- man's Park Monday, remainiag home untilthe end of the season. Secretary Muason has signed Arthur Gwineham of the St. Joe club. He was the hardest-hitting catcher in the Southern League. New York took Philadelphia into camp yesterday. Score, 13 to 6. The New York magnates were so impressed with Cateher Grim’s work at thé Pole Grounds recently that they are willing to pay Losisville a good round sum for his release. ONE LUCKY STROKE. McCafferty’s Coup Came When It Was Nost Needed. Johnny McCafferty’s successful coup at Sheepshead Bay yesterday, with his sprint- ing 4-year colt, Tom Harding, reminds the Western turf world that the little Georgian, notwithstanding the hard luck he has been experiencing with some of his most service- able performers, all season, is still in the ring and will wind up the campaign with enough to p his feed Dbilis this winter. Johnny started out this spring with one of the largest strings in training on the Amert- can turfand many expected to see his stable sweep everything before it. Had Reese, the much-talked of 8-year-old, livea, \\cCaffert expected to win the American Derby wit him, and Helen Nicholls was counted upon to win, as she did, the Queen Isabella stakes, the most valuable 4-year-old filly event of the year, in the West. The 2-year- old division included some promising material, and it goes without saying that the **Poo Bah’’ turfman was confidentof win- ning with it some of the valuable 2-year-old stakes On both circuits. Hugh Penny was expected to capture some of the Western derbys, as well as a few of the rich Eastern 8-year-old stakes, while the selling plater division insluded Nero, Tom Harding, Little Billie, Fred Taral and Bo Peep. Aloha, st. Mungo’s big son, the best known horse in the string, was relied uponto carry the white and green shoulder straps tothe front in some of the rich handicaps for all ages. The string was 6o large it was divided up in three sections, and Wishard,McCafferty’s partner, A. C., a brother of Johnny and Galen Brown, were each given A division to handle. Macklin and Rieffe, two lightweight jockeys, were engaged to do the riding when the little Georgian could not makethe desired weight and in addition to riding Johnny was general man. ager of the entire stable. The expectations of McCafferty were not realized, however. The 2-year-olds purchased last summer were sick all winter and the rest of the horses contracted the same complaint from them. Hugh Penny turned out to be of no account exceptasa sprinter. Helen Nichols could not be gotten in shape for a hard race and in consequence has been started but once up to date. Aloha did not round to racing shape until late this summer. Fred Tarai’s legs became so bad he had to be sold. Gov. Fifer was taken sick at this point and has not been started since, and the 2-year-olds have been of no account whatever. Fatality, the 17 purchased for over 8,000 at the O’Brien-VicDonough sale at the Fair Grounds, seems to bea failure, und on the whole the stable has deen n ooed’’ in greac shape all year. Galen Brown and A. C. Cafferty are not with the string any more while Macklin, the lightweight, was droppe at Chicago. Wishard is now handling the entire ne, which, however, is much smaller than it Wasthis spring. Rieffe, the lightweight rider, is still with the stable. TRACK AND STABLE GOSSIP. Orville West and Horace Argo, the book- makers, who have been associated for years in the ownership ofa stable of horses, have dissolved. Mr. Argo has gone out of the horse-racing business and will confine his efforts hereafter to bookmaking and breed- ing. He sold his interest in Salvation, Bob L., Too Quick and Alien to Mr. West. He has now four brood-mares, Elsie B., Golden Spangie, Neva C. and Nora E. Mr. West will continue the stable. There isalotof talk over at Latonia about Bob Pate’s racing venture in the Oity of Mexico. It is said there that Ira Bride will have the betting privileges.

WANTS TO MEET SHARPE. A Staunton (III.) Fighter After the Local Lightweight—Ring Gossip. J.

He would prefer a go“ with Harry Sharpe of this city, or Mr. Davidson of Virden, III. Mr. J. Mascot Weiss adds that he hopes his challenge will not be overlooked as he is in earnest, CHICAGO’s BUMS AND HOODLUMS. Speaking of his action in calling out the Sta te militia to suppress the Griffo-Lavigne contest, which it was expected would be pulled off in the arena of the Columbian Athletic Club at Roby Monday evening, Gov. Mathews of Indiana said: ‘*l ordered twelve companies, something over 400 troops, to surround Roby; if there was any virtue in military force, the outcome would have been wholesale arrests of the principals, the of- ficers of the club, the reporters and as many as possible ofthe Chicago bums and thugs if the ight was proceeded with.’’ The Governor further said; ‘‘A great many —— have accused me of being dilatory in he matter of calling outthe troops to sup- press the — ad Dut I was only waiting for an opportunity. It was necessary for me to await a call from the civil authorities. Pugilistic Pointers. Jack Hickey of County Olare, Ireland, saw stars and stripes last night when he attempted to spar four rounds with Bob Fitzsimmons. The Kangaroo played with him for two rounas and inthe third Hickey’s seconds threw up the sponge. ly ry is said that his death is a matter of buts short time.
