The usual order of routine proceeding had been duly gone through with. Speaker Townsend leaned forward, facing the House, and announced quietly: Third reading Of dms.“ Clerk Barrett arose almost before these words were ended, and ina clear, distinct voice read the Lake Employment Fund ordl- nance as already published. Not an amend- ment to the bill bad been offered by the committee having it in charge; not an ob- jection was made to it in any particular. n conformity to a charter provision, announced Speaker Townsend, 'the vote of the House will be taken dy ayes and noes, the Clerk calling the roll of the House, and the vote so spread upon the records.’’ Thecalling of the roll began. It was a splendid response to the appeal for help for the unemployed men of st. Louis. The House of Delegates voted as one man upon the measure, a stirring succession of ‘‘ayes’’ marking the progress of the roll-call. Clerk Thomas Barrett turned to the Speaker of the House and announced: **Twenty-six votes in the affirmative, Mr. Speaker, and two absent.’’ The Lake Employment Fund ordinance had been passed by the House of Delegates with- out a dissenting vote, Thereport, with the ordinance, was at once sent to the Council awaiting it in extra session, and then the bill received its second reading immediately after the House vote. There are to be no legislative obstacles in the way of the plan offering relief tothe un- employed workingmen of 8t. Louis. Neither should there be any lack of com- plteness in the relief offered. The people of St. Louis, the great popular heart to which the appeal for relief of the unemployed is made, willrespondin such away that this will be guaranteed. The appeal made is not that of men stand- ing on the city streets soliciting alms, It is the cry of self-respecting men that work be given them, whereby they can eara with honest labor the money they need for bread. These men crowded into the Post - DISPATOH Office all day yesterday registering their names. Not one of them asked for charity ;every one of them asked for work. They wantemployment in helpingto make the proposed lake in Forest Park. Heip them to this work. Help them to ward of hungerand aestitu- tion by honest labor. Help them to this work in Forest Park, which, when finished, will leave a shining monument to the gener. osity of St. Loulsans towards the suffering unemployed of st. Louis. Every dollar subscriped to the Lake Em. loyment Fund wili help them. Every Col. ar will add to the extent of ze beautiful lake to be made in Forest Park. INDORSED BY BISHOP BO} MAN.

Althaus, Secretary and Treasurer ofthe Western Brass Manufacturing Co., 615 and 617 Walnut street, seemed to be unmind- ful of the fact that this has not been the best kind of winter weather for plumbers’ sup- plies.

Inthe acknowledgment of the subscrip- tion of $20.75 in yesterday’s paper the con- tribution was credited to the employes of the Missouri Pacific Rallroad repair shops. This was an error, as the amouut was raised in the Missouri Rallroad repair shops. The note calling attention to the error closes with the hint—which it is hoped will not be lost— viz., that if the subscribing street railway repair shop had anything like the number of men there are in the Missouri Pacific Rallroad repair shops the hand extended to fellow- men out of employment would have a still more generous subscription in it.

JACKSONVILLE, Fia., Jan. 16.-—If Gov. Mitchell has any intention of abandoning his fight against the Duval Athietic Club, as is hinted by the officials of that widely adver- tised concern, he doesn’t show any signs of it. On the contrary he ts more determined than ever to prevent the meeting between Corbett and Mitchell in Jacksonville. or any other place in the State of Florida, and what is more, he bas laid plans which he says can- not fail to bring about this result. Upon many occasions since this matter came up, Gov. Mitehell has deen interviewed in connection with the fight, and very few of his utterances, he says, have been cor- rectiy quoted. To the Post-DitsPpatTcu staff cor respondent who visited him last night, how. ever, he made a plain, straight-forward statement Jefining his exact position in the matter. The State-house in which the Gov. ernor and other State officials hold forth 18 not an imposing affair. The offices are very plainly furnished, but that some business is transacted inthem is made evident by the presence of the type-writers, who,look over- worked, GOV. MITCHELL. The Governor sits Inthe smallerof two rooms behind a big square desk, smokes cigars all day long, and does his share towards running the Stateina very quiet, dignified way. He isa man rather above medium height, inclined tobe stout, and would attract at- tention anywhere because of the peculiar formation of his head, which rests so near his shoulders that very little neck is visible. His face is very long and very broad, and above his small nose two sharp Diack eyes peep at you. His hair is silvery white, and he has plenty of it. The Governor looks like a determined man, and after spending a few minutes in his office, nine men out of ten would take his word, tf he said he would doa certain thing. Bowden says he is a ‘‘biuff- er. If heis, he is a good one, but he de- clares most emphatically that he is not. There is no red tape about this modest State-house, Around it_lurks an air of pure Jeffersonian Democracy a it’s mo trouble to reach the Governor of Florida. You simply walk in and be tells you to take a seat and relate your trouble. WILL 8TOP THE FIGHT. When told thatthe Post-DISPATCH wanted a final statement from him concerning his ideas on the COorbett-Mitchell affair, he wheeled around in his chair, lighted a cigar, cocked his feet upon the window sill, and staring over a pair of rubber-framed eye glasses, said bluntly: lou can tell the Post-DisPaTcH I’m pote to prevent this prize fight, for that’s what is, no matter what many other terms are ap- plied to it. „But it is hinted that the Jacksonville Militia has deciined to aid you,“ was sug- gested. That 18 not true, said the Governor sharply, and it is unfair to the men in the several companies for such reports to get out, but if they did hap- pen to so decline,it would not affect my plans in the slightest degree. I’m going to prevent that fight, and that's all there is about it. The good citizens of Florida are behind me, and if Bowden and his men think I’m bluff- ing they are entitled tothelr opinions. The Attorney-General says that it’s against the and that should be enou law-abiding citizen. and Mitchell cannot fight in this State. Iknowthere are a great many people in the North whoare only waiting for à positive aSsurance that the fight will take place to start for Jacksonville. I haven’t a eer high opinion of men who will aid with their money spch an affair. If they take these manifestoes of the Duval Athletic Club whichisa myth, and come down here an spend money, it’s their own fault. They certainly have had ample warning. They will not see a fight here.’ HAD PLENTY OF WARRING. But Bowden says they win and declares that you have no power to interfere, put in the Post-DIsPATCH correspondent. Oh, I know that, but who is this Bow- den?’’ was the Governor’s rejoinder. ‘*‘He wants an interview with me to-morrow, and he can have it, but he may as well save his fare it de hopes that any whining he may do about the money he’s going to lose will change my attitude toward affairs. He knew my feelings in this matter in time to get out without the loss ofa dollar. Now 1 hope it will cost himall he has. Aman who will in the most foolhardy way expend money inan enterprise like this, which the Attorney- General has declared illegal,deserves to pay for his pigheadedness. doubt if Bowden cares whether there is a fight or not if he can get out witha whole skin. Jacksonville is not the State of Florida dy along chalk and the religious peopie of the community cer- tainly will have some rights, which shall take care to protect. If these Northern men are so anxious to see this fight, Why in biazes don’t they have it up there! Florida is a small State. It 18 not to the @um ping-grouna for this sort of thing. o sir, Florida may be small, but her citizens shall be protected against the intrusion of law-breakers. Bcwden says I will not dare to carry out my plans. He threatensto bring suit against me. Well he’s doing all the threatening, and we shall see whether this insignificant fellow can run this State. I haven't been asleep all this time, I can assure you.“ OUTSIDE MILITIA. **Have you read that the club has several other plans in view if Jacksonville is aban- doned?’’ was asked. „„I nave,’’ sald Gov. Mitchell, “and I re- peat emphatically that the fight shall be prevented inthe State of Florida. I grant you they may sneak off In the woods some- where and have it out, but I don’t see how even this can be done. I shall not call upon the Jacksonvilie militia. Some of them are in favor of the fight, and have friends who are interested.’’ „the militia of some „Then you will emplo other point cf the State „rod draw your own conclusions, The Adjutant-General has planned to cover every point near Jacksonville and 8.

Proposes to Pay Pensioners in a New Is- sue of 2 per Cent Bonds. WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 16.—Representa- tive Sibley (Dem.) of Pennsylvania has pre- pared a bill to pay pensions in a new issue of 2 percent bonds. He proposes to offer it to the House in case a bill is presented for a general issue of bonds. Mr. Sibley’s bill ts designed to give pensioners the benefits usually accruing from bonds and also to give the Government a ready means of meeting pension obligations. His plan is to make the bonds in denominations of $20 up to $100, and to make them legal ten. der, except for customs dues. This would allow them tocirculate as r currency.

A Meeting Called for Frida Night to Prepare Plans of Action—Reasons Why the st. Louis Subway Co. Bill Is Supposed to Be a Bell Measure—A Flock of Bills to Give Legislators Ex- couse For Voting Is Looked for- Ar. Sutter Defines His Position. A united effortis tobe made by the labor organizations of St. Louis, aided by the Single Tax League, not only to put the elec- tric wires underground and putthem there as soon as may be, but to force the city to supply the subway into wnich they shal) go, and when it has supplied itto take up the scheme of municipal control of the telephone dusiness and carry it out to the same degree of perfection that it has the water service. The joint committee meeting last night at 1780 Wash street was a mere conference. It was for the pur pose of considering plans for organization, not to map out the fight on franchises that it is proposed to wage relent- lessly until St. Louis becomes another De- troit and its treasury shares with the fran- chise procurers the profits of using city streets. WILL FIGHT FRANCHISES. **We simply discussed the situation,“ said Sheridan Webster of the Single Tax League. „We had been waiting to act until the time came fora popular movement, a movement that the papers would support. We got word that arrangements had been made to pass the Bell Telephone bill and $100,000 would de spent in getting it through and that every vote was pledged. Weap- pointed a committe to investigate. I was on it. We sent back word to our informant that we were doubtful if he knew what he was talking about. He gave us assurances that convinced us. We watched. When the two subway dills came in Friday night we took our cue, We have adjourned to meet at room 501 Fagin Bund- ing Friday night, And we want delegates from every organization in the city that is interested in protecting the city to meet us there without further notice, There we will make out plans. „We are going in to do for this town what Mayor Pingree did for Detroit. It means a big ght all along the line, but it means a big saving totaxpayers and big ac- commodation to the puplic. TELEPHONES AT $30 A YEAR. The city can supply. telephones at 880 a year and pay the interest on bonds and principal too. We now par $100 a year for telephones and if the Bell company gets underground no one knows what we will pay. At $30 a year ten men would use a telephone where one does now, and the need for telephones is con- stantly growing. Business can’t do without them. Even our homes will use them when supplied at cost of the service.“ „Why have you spoken so positively about the Bell Telephone Co.’s connection with the St. Louis subway Co, bill when Manager Durant denies it?’’ „Well, we were looking for the plan that appears to be working. We were looking for a multitude of bills. With one dil a man might be placed where he would have to explain his vote. But with a multitude he can make his choice and square himself with his constituency. He can even point with pride to the fact that he didn’t vote for a worse Dill. There’ll be more bills before the final fight comes oa. THE Sr. LOUIS SUBWAY FRANCHISE. The St. Louis Subway Co.’s franchise, now before the Municipal Assembly, makes an offer that is similar to that made by the Bell Telephone Co. in its various identified bills. It will supply free tothe city, in considera- tion of the anting of the nchise, such dacts as shall be necessary to carry the city’s fire-alarm, tele ph and the police tele- phone wires. But the provision making the conduit a common carrier does not appear to be in harmony with such ideas of telephone monopoly. The st. Louls Subway Co. provides for put- ties electric wires under ground in a con- duit and provides the conditions underwhich the conduit shall be used. The company claims to have been organized under the laws of Missouri and the franchise is for fifty years. Within ten days after the grant- — 7 the franchise the company is to deposit $1, with the City Treasurer and Keep this deposit good for insurance that it will repair streets torn up in laying conduit and condult pipes and making repairs. It becomes a common carrier and permits any person to use its system of underground conduits upon such terms as shall be mutually a upon. If terms shall not be made then the conduit people may appoint an arbitrator, the wire company another and these two arbi- trators a third, The fiz the tariff. A bond of ,000 must be filed by the Subway company within thirty Gays of the granting of the franchise to — carrying out the Board of blic Improvements’ regulations. FORCING PATRONAGE BY LAW.

In lleu of removing the old wails, the contractor put in new piatforms at the stair landings and did other extras for which no allowance was made. The city did not lose anything by the change.

The Court of Appeals this morning handed down quite a batch of decisions. In all eleven written opinions were given. The court affirmed the decree of divorce granted last summer to Brewer Anton Griesedieck from his wife, Gertrude Griese- Gieck. Plaintiff's petition alleged that de- | fended had subjected the plaintit to many. indignities such as calling himvile names and driving him from his house. A cross bill was filed and the trial of the case lasted three days and developed much sensational testi. mony. In writing the decision, Judge Biggs stated tnat the evidence was contradictory in all potnts, but the preponderance was with the plaintitt. An opinion was banded down in the case Samuel T. Hauser, trustee, vs. Judson M. Thompson, appellant; appeal from the Oir- cuit Court. The plaintiff obtained, Jan. 17, 1890, judgment against the Bris- tol Hotel Co., a Missouri corporation. Execution was issued, but was returned nulla bona. Subsequently the plaintiff nied a motion in the court wherein the judg- ment was rendered, asking for an execution against the appellant, alleging that he was the owner of 200 shares of capital stock of the hotel company. upon which de had only paid 50 per cent of their par value, leaving $10,000 un paid thereon. The defense was that the suit forthe collection of plaintiff’s demand against the hotel company was not com- menced within one year after the maturity of such demand. The Court ordered the ex- ecution to issue and the appellont appealed, A Gecision affirming the judgment of the Circuit Court was handed down, all the judges concurring. In the case of Anna K. Farra, respondent vs. Judson M. Thompson, appellant, the record was the same as in the above case and e similar decision, awarding a judgment against the defendant, was given. he judgment of the lower court for laintif? was affirmed in the case of Robert Iller, respondent, vs. the Quincy, Omaha & Kansas City Rallway Co., appeaied from the Circuit Court of Knox County. This suit was begun before a Justice, to recover for ee steers Killed by one of ‘the defendant's trains. In the case of Otto S. Girsch vs. the United States Grand Lodge of the order of Brith Abraham, the judgment of the lower court was reversed and remanded. The order agreed to pay each member £500 upon the death of his wife. Plaintiff’s wife died, but defendant refused to pay the ene- fit on the the mem- bership of had lapsed six months before. The law making the membership of the wife compulsory was passed in 1888. The lower court gave a ver- ict for plaintiff on the ground that the law was invalid and thatthe agents of the order had falled to set forth this law in their representations made to induce plaintif® to join. In reversing this de- cision the Court of Appeals said that such representation omitting the provisions of the law in question were merely N for damages and fora release from the con tract and would not prevent defendants from enforcing their laws. A decision was banned down in the case of Theodore Horstmeyer, defendant in error, vs. Margaret Connors et al., plaintiff? in error. In the case the plaintiff recovered a judgment against the defendant for the amount said to have been paid by bim at their request for taxes and repairs on cer tain real estate. The decision allows the defendant in error to remit his recovery against certain de- fendants, Who are minors, within one wees. On his failure to do this the judgment against the adult detendants will be reversed and — cause remanded for further proceed - ngs. In the case of the Mount Olive and 8t. Louis Coal Co. vs. the estate of Charles Slevin, de- ceased, per Catherine Slevin, administratrix, the finding ofthe Circuit Court for the de- fendant was upheld. In the case of Margaret Sheridan vs. the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Rallway, the case Was remanded. Plaintiffs conveyed to a company to which defendants are succes- sors, aright of way over their farm on con- dition that they establish a farm crossing over their road. The deed to the right of way was without restriction and the lower court instructed the jury to find for the defendant. The case was remanded because of the lower court having sustained de- murrer to the part of the petition alleging ownership ofthe road andethe failure of the company toconstruct the farm crossing. The third appeal inthe case of James Rob- erts, respondent, vs. the Quincy, Omaha & Kansas City Railway, appeal from Circuit Court of Lewis County resulted inthe verdict being reversed and the case being remanded with directions. The action is ons to recover double damages under tie railroad fence law for three of plaintiff’s horses, killed by defendant’s locomotive. Opinions were also handed down in the following cases: Abraham S. Grant vs. the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe, n n Knox County; Mary C. Lycan et al. 6. Miller st al., trustees under will of "Elia J. Grigsby, deceased, Suit for $5,000 Damavze. Before Judge Vallaint this morning was commenced the hearing of the $5,000 damage suit instituted by Frans Kakat against the Koken Iron Works for the loss of a leg Kakat alleges that a year ago he “was put to work without instructions of any kind on a machine the mechanism of which he did not understand; as a consequence of his ignorance his foot be- came entangled inthe machinery, and was so badly crushed that am putation was neces- sary. Later, owingto some complications a second amputation became necessary and this was performed but a short time ago. Sitting in a chair in the Court-room, with the stump of his leg bandaged and supported by another chair, Kakab was an excellent silent witness in his own behalf. His wife and daugkter were with him and he was ac- companied by several charitable ladies, who na ve supported the family since the acci- dent occurred. Barrison Sues for Divorce. In the Circuit Clerk’s office this morning Michael F. Harrison filed a petition for Givorcefrom his wife, Ella M. Harrison, whom he married Jan. 12, 1886, and whom he alleged deserted him.

TENNANT-STRIBLING SHOR co. AND VAREAALVERS PAINT CO. FINED, — — The Evidence Against Them Was — elusive—Prof, Potter aud au Oid An- gineer Give Some Expert Testimeny ~The Case Against Woodward & Uo. Continued. ‘ Before the morning smoke-bianket had lifted off the city the clans of the Citizens’ Smoke Abatement Association gathered im Judge Paxson’s court to prose- cute the work of punishing offenders against the smoke ordinance. The defenda- ants were the Tennent-Stribling Shoe Co., the Vane-Calvert Patnt Co. and the d. B. Woodward Printing Co. Attorney Frank Rran obtained a continuance for the latter until Feb. 16. The Smoke Commission was represented by President Kinngslad, Secretary JamesVox and Prof, Wm. B. Potter. Smoke Inspector Nickemeler was put on the stand and tola of the observations he had made of the Tennant-Stribilng smoke stack on Jan,6, The inspectors, Messrs. Cox and Pollen, stationed themselves on the top floor of the Maeyberg Hat Co, and watched the Tepnapt- Stribling smoke stack from 2:06 p. m. until4:15 p. m. Mr. Nieke- meter testifed that the stack belched forth thick gray and dense black smoke at inter- vais during the afternoon, Mr. Tennant, who was not represented by counsel attempted to cross-examine Mr. Nickemeler when the Smoke Inspector broke out, Mr. Tennant you and Ei Walker have the worst stacks on Washing- ton avenue. Mr, Tennant gave up the cross- questioning. Mr. James Cox testified that for two. hours after 3 0’clock on the day in question he had watched the chimney and for forty-two minutes it smoked continuously.. Judge Pax- son asked him it there were any successful smoke devices in operation and he named off hand the Union Trust, Rialto, Security, Mermod-Jaccard buildings, the Boatman’s Bank ourt-house and Hamiltoh-Brown shoe factory as some of the places were smoke abaters were in successful operation. Mr. Tennant, when put upon the stand, said that he was one of the originators of the smoke abatement crusade and had gone about collecting funds to carry on the work of securing the enforcement ofthefordinance. He laughingly admitted that he was swallowing his own medicine. He acknowledged a technical. violation of the ordinance, but stated that he had an abater put im his building and had gone 80 farastothreatento discharge his engineer and fireman if they did not properly attend toit. He said his stack had not been smoking since he was served with notice of the suit and the reason it had smoked pre- vious to that was because of his engineer’s carelessness. Judge Paxson imposed a fine ots which he stayed until notice of a further offense. POST-DISPATCH, EXPERT TESTIMONY. Expert testimony in the crude and refined was the feature of the Vane-Caivert trial. The testimony of Smoke Inspectors Fox and Nickemeler was to the effect that they had watched Vane-Cal- vert smoke stack from 11:1 a. m. to 1:40 p. m. of Jan. 8, from the top floorof the k xcelsior Manufacturing Co. at various times during the vigilthe stack had emitted thick gray and dense black smoke. Prof. Wm. B. Potter was put upon the stand to give expert tes- timony, He had taken observations of the Vane-Calvert stack on Jan, S and ex- plained his markings taken on cross sectioned paper the vertical lines represent- ing the per cent of smoke and the horizon tal lines the time of observation. The obser va- tions made an indisputable case under the ordinance, Prof. Potter then gave expert testimony about smoke and smoke-abaters. He said he had studied the question closely for ten years. ‘‘The effects of thick gray or black smoke, he sald, are to darken the at- mosphere making artificial light necessary: no matter how closely guarded against it deposits soot and damages books, furnl- ture Ir fabrics of any kind.“ Would you say that smoke like that you saw issuing from this smokestack is detri- mental to health?’’ asked Attorney Me- Quillan. Mr. Potter paused for some time and then answered: ‘‘Yes; it affects the throat, eyes and mucous membrane, Personally I suffer from a throat affection that is greatly aggra- vated by our smoke-laden atmosphere. Mr. Potter then explained the various forms of successful smoke abdters that had come under his observation as chairman of the Smoke Commission. He analyzed the action of the steam jet consumer for Judge Paxson. The principle was that a jet of steam shot into the fire-box produced a partial vacuum. The door of the ash pit below being left up allowed the air to rush in to nll up the vacuum, This air swirled around inithe fire chamber and becoming thoroughly mixed with the smoke rendered it easily combusti- dle and most all the carbon was con- sumed, He sald most of the successful smoke consumers were only dif- ferent appliances of these 1 Mr. R. Vane then took his stand and ex- plained that he had put in a smoke-abater on the steam jet prineiple, and hejthought it, had been working well. His engineer had told him it was all right; asked if he had made any attempts to find the best con- sumer, he said that as many as fifty agents had tried to sell him devices and each claimed to have the best.

The Possible Effect the Senate’s Action Mey Have on the President. WASHINGTON, Jan. 16—Wm. R. Horn- blower, nominated by President Cleveland for a place on the Supreme bench, has been rejected by the Senate. The opposition was led by Hill of New York and Vest of Missouri. There can be but one reason assigned for this action. It is that certain of the Senators wished to make an emphatic declaration of their independence of the Administration. There were no serious objections to Mr. Hornblower himseif, or if there were they aid not come prominently to the surface. It remains to be seen what effect this ac- tion will have on President Cleveland. It is whispered he m retaliate by being very slow to make Federai nominations from States represented by the hostile Senators. AGAINST MANUFACTUREBS. Amalgamated Association Seriously Con- siiering Entering Suit for Damages. PITTSBURG, Pa., Jan. 16.—The Amalga- mated Association is seriously considering the advisability of entering suits for dam- ages against the fron and steel manufac- turers, who, itis alleged, have repudiated coptracts with the association by insisting upon further reduction in wages of the workmen, In speaking of the matter, President M. M. Gar- and of the Amalgamated Association said thatin view of the many broken .con- tracts recently, the association proposed to look carefully into the legality of such agree- ments. He said thatJf there are legal grounds for instituting against manufacturers who have repudiated their agreements, proceed- ings will be ordered. He says damages will be asked for if possible. WITH HER DEAD BABY. Mary Johnson's Ride Out tothe Hospital in a Cab. Mary Johnson, a colored patient at the City Hospital, who is held as a prisoner on acharge of infanticide, said to-day that she gave birth to her baby last Friday night. On Saturday night she had Thomas Anderson get a cab and take er to the Female Hospital. She said that she put the infant in a basket and started at 8 o*clock. When she reached the Female Hospital, she states, she found that the baby was dead. she explained to Dr. Kirley her need of medical attention, but she was notadmitted because she had not a per- mit from the City Dispensary. Sheand An- derson drove to the City Dispensary, and when Dr. Fitzpatrick, the physician in charge, discovered that the in- fant was dead, he suspécted that it died of neglect. Anderson, whois a coach- man at 3437 Pine, and is supposed to be the father of the dead child, was arrested, and the mother, who was a servant at 8429 Pine street, was sent a prisoner to the City Hos pital. Both are being held to await the ver- dict of the Coroner’s jury. AGAINST THE RIFFS. Sultan Muley Hassan Takes the Field to Suppress the Mountaineers. MADRID, Jan. 16.—Dispatches tothe Gov- ernment from Tangier say that at length Sultan Muley Hassan of Morocco has taxen the field at the head of his army to assist the Spaniards in putting down the revolt of the Riff tribes. The Sultan’s fighting force consists mainly of 10,- 000 infantrymen under the command of a former British officer, who some years since entered the service of the Sultan. In ad- dition tothe foot solaiers, there are about 500 rather poorly disciplined cavalry, a few batteries of feld guns, commanded by three French officers, and 2,000 irregular cavalry. The revolt of the Riffs has proved very costly to Spain. So far the Spanish troops have been unequalto the task of subduing the wild mountaineers. The leader of the Riffs is the famous Maimon Mohatar or Moja- tar. He has all the traits of the Berber race, being as cruelin victory as he is cowardly in defeat. He the of all that is thought, and done against Spain in the Rif region. Haughty and defiant when he succeeded in his expeditions, he was also seen often mating humble submission and kneeling in the dust at the feet of the Governors of Melilla, who foolishly granted him a pardon after he had fatled in some of his many raids upon Spanish- African territory. THE H&AVY FOG. Assistant Observer Herndon Explains the Cause of Its Presence. A veritable rival of the London fogs bov- ered over this city this morning. It was learned at the Signal Service office that St. Louis has not owned the fogs all to herself, but that for several days past the complaint Bas been shared by all districts of the Central Valley. There was probably some fog here 7 — though it could not be detected for he‘smoke. The Signal Service people say that there are doubtless a at ma fogs here that are mever reported, because it can- not betold from the smoke and they had rather report no fog when there was one than to call smoke a fog. **Fogs, you know, said Assistant Observ- er Herndon, are nothing but atmosphere laden with visible particies of moisture and held to the earth by the heaviness of the at- mosphere above—a cloud on the ground other words.

L:brary Muddle. * RENT FOR THE ROOMS IN THE NEW POLYTECHNIC WILL BE DEMANDED. President Brockman Says the People Did Mot Vote to Turn the Old Library and Its Quarters Over to the New Board— School Board Needs the Money—A Hot Debate. The Library Committee of the School Board and the special committee of the Board of Gavernors met in the Board of Education Bullding last night. Hon. John W. Nobile was present at the request of the Gov ernors. President O. L. Whitelaw began th argument by outlining the history of th movement. He was followed by President Brockman, who‘asked the Free Library Boara what proposition it had to offer. Mr. Jocod Furth said that both boards served the same constituency ox the same purpose, education, and, declared that the Free Library Board would pay no money for the privilege of lifting a burden off of the School Board’s shoulders. John W. Noble took up the argument and said that when the people voted forthe free library they meant that the books, fixtures and rooms should be given up by the School Board. Secretary Player read in response a com- munication from Attorney Stark saying the board did not have to give up thej books. Mr. Furth asked the board for a proposition and Dr. Wait replied that $10,000 for fixtures and furniture and 6 per cent interest on the proportionate value of the building for rental were the terms considered by the Oard. This was discussed pro and con until several gentlemen grew warm under the collar. The result of the discussion was the adoption of Dr. Hickman’s motion to have a committee of three from each side meet and agree upon a proposition. WHAT THE PEOPLE ZOTED FOR. That the School Board c not be forced by law to give up the books is virtually admitted by the new board, The people at the last election did not vote to turn the library over to the new board or make the present public libray free. They voted to establish a free library. The ordinance was in a section of the rate ordinance (17201) passed by the assembly in 1893 and was as follows: Sec. 3. Under authority of section seventeen hundred and seventy-nine, Revised Statutes of eighteen hundred eighty-nine, there is hereby levied on the assessed valuation ofall subjects and objects ef taxation and all property within the city made taxabie by law for State purposes, a tax for the year eighteen hundred and ninety-three of one- fifth ofone mill per dollar for the library fund. This section wasthen submitted and the people in accordance with the section 1779 revised, which provides that the people shall vote uponthe proposition, the form of question on theballot was as follows: FOR a 2 of a mill tax for a Free Public rary. AGAINST a one-fifth ofa mill tax for a Free Public Library. In the ordinance and on the ballot nothing appears to show thatthe public library was to turned over to the new Board of Man- agers appointed by the Mayor. The law re- ferrea to by the ordinance provides for the establisument of a library, and tells how the money shall be raised and how the library for the people shall be governed. BROCKMAN EXPLAINS. resident Brockman, when seen in regard tonne stand taken by the new Library Com- mittee, said: It is simply zthis, there is ro law compelling us to turn over the library. The peuple did not vote toturn it over. The people voted to estavle a free library. The schools need money. The Library Commit- tee will have $60,000 per year to run a library which can be run for $20,000. The School Board wants to have the library taken off its hands, butjit does not propose to keep losing money vy it. We have two large floors suitable for office purposes which will certainly bring in 6 per cent on the money invested. Now why should the School Board rob itself for the benefit of a library for the —— especially when they are giving that library tothe peopley They expect us to give them rent free, elevator service, light and heat, besides turning over the library, worth $250,000, to them. If they take the library out of the building we would have the two upper fioors and be able to move the board offices up there and rent the lower ones for offices or mercantile purposes. It is a plain busi- ness proposition in which the Schoo! Board is watching the Interests of the school fund and trying to get a few more dollars for the school children, and simply refuse to furnish heat, light, elevator service and quarters for a different corporation under the State law.’’ Olaim They Have a Contract. The members of the Roofers’ Union were very much surprised last night at the state- ment of Mr. E. R. Wolf, one of the officers of the roofing pool, that none of the members ofthe pool signed a contract with the union excepting Mr. John M. Sellers. Speaking about Mr. Wolf’s statement, a delegation of roofers said to-day: **We have a contract 81 ing firms: J. M. Sellers, H. Reinstedler, John Latal, Glisonite Roofing and Paving Co. All these firms are members or stockholders of the pool in existence to-day. **Our contract stipulates that should a change in Wages be desired by either party a notice of not less than four months should be — dy y Gesiring change.

There was one portion of the White City that many thousands of the 27,000,000 visitors to the great Exposition in Jackson Park Visited, and where they obtained views of the big buildings which were not afforded from any other point of observation. It was the center of Wooded Island, Situated in the very center of the immense grounds, sur- rounded on all sides by the airy white castles and separated from them by ‘the broad lagoons, it offered an opportunity to view to better advantage the grandeur of the Fair thanany spot within the gates. It was said by persons who had seen every exposition in America and Europe since the Centennial of 1876 thatthe greatest charm and beauty of the World’s Fair was the water views, the reflection ofthe buildings on the K 1 sur- face of the lagoons and basins, and the view that could be had of them over the water. Many features of the dig struc- tures would have been unnoticed it was said but for the perfectness ot vision afforded by the water. On Wooded Island the spectator could not look on any side without seeing in the foreground a sheet of water which heightened and beautified the view. There were but two main buildings ou the grounds which did not come within the range of his vision while stationed on the island, and these were the Agri- cultural and Machinery Buildings. In Port- folio No, 8, which was Issued Sunday, about half the scenes pictured are taken from this enchanted isle, and they make up a collec- tion of perhaps the most attractive hotographs that have been put orth. The artist can be followed in his movements as close and accurately, by one who has the book, as though they were watching him in theact of taking the scenes with his camera. The book opens with a picture of Moose bridge, which led the pedestrian from near the Festival Hall across the lagoon tothe island. Two splendid statues of the Moose, larger than life-size and as perfect as could be made, were mounted on pedestals on each side and gave the bridge its name. Then in succession the artist took the views to the south, east and west, showing the grand avenue between the Mining and Elec- tricity Buildings, the Liberal Arts Bulld- ing across the lagoon, the Fisheries Bullding and bridges over the lagoon, the dome of the Horticultural building and other scenes. One who has not experienced the pleasure ‘of an hour or haif aday on Wooded Island can give his imag- ination perfect freedom to picture to the eye of the mind the beauties of the scene, and it willfall far short of what the reality was. These treats of the mind, eye and un- derstanding are reproduced with all the truth of detail: the finest camera is capa- ble of. Only the life, the atmosphere and the coloring are missing from these pictures, but in every other respect they are perfect gems. They are, however, but a repetition of those that came before, in point of interest, as all the pictures are executed with the same artistic skili. Secure one of them now.

NO TRUTH IN THE RUMOR SHE WANTS PECUNIARY DAMAGES, She Will Patiently Await the Arbitration of Her Case by the United States— What an English Paper Says About Rumors of Her Threatened Early Death—Cleveland Commended. SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., Jan. 16.—In corre- spondence from Hawall received by the steamer Australia there was an assertion that the deposed Queen has given up the con- test and will sue the United States for dam- ages forthe part taken by the former repre- sentatives of this country at the time the Provisional Government was substituted for the monarchy. Samuel Parker, Prime Minister of the ex- Queen and Minister of Foreign Affairs, and A. A. Peterson, Attorney- General, two mem- bers of the Cabinet at the time of the change in Government, came by the same steamer. They briefly denied the statement, deeming that it was unimportant. Last night they noticed in the telegraphic dispatches from Washington that considerable weight is given at the cap- tal to this report. In consequence Mr. Par- Ker last evening sent a strong telegram to Secretary of State Gresham, signed as Prime Minister of Foreiga Affairs, positively deny- ing these assertions and declaring that the Queen has submitted ner case to the arbitra- tion of the United States and will patiently await that verdict. Mr. Parker and Mr. Peterson both said last evening that they saw the Queen halfan hour before they left on the steamer Aus- tralla, and she was firm in her determina- tion to maintain herclaimtothethrone. At no time did she or any of her advisers men- tion the possibility of presentng a claim to the United States for pecuniary damages. English View of Hawaiian Affairs. LONDON, Jan. 16.—The Times, in a leading article, says: It is prudent to accept all un- official rumors from Hawali with reserve. It is possible that the report that the ex- Queen is in danger of death is well founded, and itis easy to belleve that also constitu- tional weakness of heart must have been severely aggravated by the intense and pro- longed anxiety of her present position. On the other hand, it is conceivable that some persons concerned in the intrigue of her downfall must be interested in spreading false reports in regard to her health. Itisamusing and instructive to ob- serve that although the whole conspiracy which Mr. Thurston concocted and executed by the ald of the American Minister was sim ply a plot to annex the islands to the United states against the will of the Queen, he imitates President Doie’s example and swaggers about the international rights of the independent Republic of Ha wall. The article proceeds tocommend Mr. Cleve- land for his rm attitude in the Hawalian matter and continues: What te ultimate issue will be it Is not easy to say, but in the face of Mr. Willis“ dispatches le is satisfac- tory to know that there is a naval force handy sufficient to protect the lives and property of the British inhabitants. It 18 probable that the risk of a violent attempt on the ex-Queen is not serious, but it is both ludicrous and significant to find thatthe American Minister relies upon the telephone from the ex-Queen’s house to his room tor her protection. Although Lilluo- Kalani is no doubt well advised in assenting to Cleveland's terms, it can not be denied that the objections she originally urged against them have a deal of force. In the dramatic conversation reported by Mr. Willis, she exbibited a cuteness of under standing as wellas queenly dignity ofa really striking kind.“ WEIL—NAHM.

Huntington Accased of Hoodwink- ing Mrs. Leland Stanford. EAN Frawoisco, Cal., Jan. 16.—A local paper prints a dispatch from New York stat- ing that it is rumored on Wall street that on account of the trouble between Mrs. Leland Stanfordand C. P. Huntington there was some question as to the latter’s ability to control the Galveston, Houston & Texas Rall- road and other lines in which £tanford is said to have held large interests with Hunt- ington. According to the story Mrs. stan- ford discovered that Huntington withheld from her knowledge large blocks of secur!- ties held by himself and Stanford in com- mon, and that there is a possibility of a suit against Huntington for over $1,000,000. The paper, commenting on the dispatch, says the story is substantially correct. Judge Spencer. Mrs. Stanford’s attorney, who is reported to have written a sharp letter to Huntington demanding an accounting, when asked about the story said: must decline to be interview.d on that subject. If Mr. Huntington wishes to talk he can do so. He may tell as little or as much as he pleases. He is not an attorney practicing other people's business. Mrs. Stanford ascertained, it is claimed, that $3,000,000 of her late husband’s indebted- ness to the Pacific Improvement Oo. dad been paid. By whomshe did not know, as she had not authorized such payment. In- vestigation §showed that the $38,000,000 had been made up by the sale of certain ratiroad securities. These securities had not been in Mrs. Stanford’s possession. When it was discovered that these securities had not been included the inventory of the Stafford estate, it §began to be suspected that Huntington had sold the stock to himself and was keeping control of certain important securities. hen it was ascertained that a long line of securities were in the same condition, held by Hunt- ington but claimed by the Stanford estate. Then it was thet Spencer wrote to Huntiag- ton, and it is understood he intimated nf the securities are not produced, suit will be commenced to secure them. Appraisement of the estate is not finished yet, though the schedule should be filed Jan. 17. DROVE OFF THE BIG, Three Youths Captured With Dr. dberger’s Horse and Buggy: While Dr. Rudolph Sollberger’s horse and buggy were standing in front of his office at 1412 South Eighth street, yester- day at noon, some unknown persons jumped into it and drove off. Some time lat ter as Officers Rudolph and Whalen were standing at Wisconsin avenue and Broadway, three young men who ap- proached ina buggy jumped out and started to run away. Theofmicers gathered the trio in and ascertained that they John Madden, Adam Kapper, 16 years old, and Petz Marrio, aged 17. They were brought tothe Second District Police Station and, the horse which had run away and was caught at Miami street and Marine avenue, was identified by Dr. Sollberger. The buggy collided with a telegraph pole, where the horse was caught, and was damaged to the extent of $20. A case of surgical instruments was in the buggy at the time. SHOT A GIRL. Soll- Christian Hemm Accused of Deliberately Wounding Emma Grimes. Emma Grimes, a 13-year-old girl, residing at 8627 West Davis street, was shot between the knee and hip by Christian Hemm, a l4-year-oid boy, while going home from school at 4 o’clock yesterday after- noon, The shooting is said to been deliberate, and occurred at the north end or the red bridge over the River Des Peres. Young Hemm was arrested and is held to await the results of the girl’s injuries. It is said that the girl remonstrated with him for standing under the bridge and watching her as she crossed and that he then shot her. Young Hemm claims that he did not know she was shot until the officer arrested him. The cartridge used was small, and unless blood-poisoning sets inthe in- jury tothe girl will not be of a serious na- ture. Jacob Urschel, residing at 217 West Stein street, was seriously injured ina runaway accident yesterday afternoon. The South St. Louls Carriage Factory, 7601 Virginia avenue, was entered by thieves last night and a lot of tools stolen. Revival services are being held at the Carondelet Presbyterian Church this week. Fred G. Voltieinand Miss Ida Fauth were married last night at the home of the bride’s parents, 3659 Blow street.

The first call forthe registration of the unemployed desiring work on the Forest Park Lake was published in the Post-D1s- PATCH Saturday afternoon. Yesterday over 1,100 men had applied. Sunday hav- ; ing intervened these applications were practically made within the period of one day. What stronger proof could there be of the pressing need of the relief offered by the Lake Employment Fund than this eager rush of men for work? These ap- plicants are honest, industrious working- men. Nothing is offered them except the bare means of a living in return for a day’s labor. They seek only the poor privilege of working to earn bread for themselves and their families. Under the ordinary ratio of voters to pop- ulation the application of over 1,100 men for work in one day means that over 5,000 persons are without means of support. But the application list has just been opened. To-day there was an enormous increase in the number of applicants. The revelation of the Post-DIsPATCH em- ployment registration list is sufficient to n. pity. The picture of a great throng of strong, willing workers pleading for work is full of pathos. Itis an irresistible appeal to their more fortunate fellow-men, Who can refuse to help these men to help them- selves? Who can refuse to aid in keeping them from despair and the humilia- tion of beggary, and in saving them and their families from starvation? Their pitiful plea for work should be enough to stimulate all to help them, but whena plan of relief is put forward which not only offers them work and wages, but all the people of St. Louis a great benefit, what excuse can be given for not helping it to success? 4 The men who are pleading for work at this office are suffering now. They need wages at once, Every day’s delay deep- ens their distress. Whatever you give, give promptly. MUST MAKE A CHOICE, The Democratic party is the party of popular rights and progress, This was the purpose of its organisation and its triumphs have been triumphs of liberty and improvement, But it has not always won its battles. When a party in a self-governing country is tied to special interests or to a policy which promotes the prosperity of a class at the expense of the general welfare it is bound to decay morally and intellectually. This happened to the Democratic party in the slavery contest and the Republican party came into being to carry on the real Democratic work in a special emprgency | when the party of Jefferson andJackson was | employed to restrain rather than enlarge the liberties of the people. And it bap- pened to the Republicans also when, having obtained complete control of the Government, itfell under the corrupting influence of the money power and was used to serve the purposes of an aspiring The dominant party ie always exposed to such dangers, and if it succumbs to temptation it is sure to meet with disas- ter. The Republicans suffered the pen- alty of unrighteousness just as the Demo- crats did before them, and the latter are even now listening to those who would form an alliance with the party which has favors to bestow. Mr. Andrew Carnegie is the first to discover the change in public sentiment, and he hastens to hint of cam- paign contributions. Others will soon NW organ e: . de no com- promise between the two. It the income tax is defeated, it will be a sign to the people that the party they have trusted is yielding to undemocratic, anti-popular principles and is unworthy of their con- fidence.

The Single Tax League has started a good, practical work for the benefit of St. Louisans in opposing the granting of pri- vate franchises for wire subways. What- ever may be the motive of the members of the league, their object is good and in line with the interests of the public. The underground space for conduits is limited, and the company which first se- cures a franchise will have an advantage over other companies, which may be turned into an oppressive monopoly. All the protestations that corporation managers may make of the.-unselfishness of their purposes will be vain. Everyone knows that no possibility of twisting a private franchise into a monopoly will be neglected by the company owning it. Every safe- guard will be attacked. The fact that a corporation like the Bell Telephone Co.,which has enjoyed a monop- oly for years and is eager’ to continue it, insists upon the private franchise scheme is sufficient to condemn it. If it seeks no advantage why should it not be willing to go into a municipal subway with equal advantages for all competitors? The municipal subway represents the only wise and safe solution ofthe under- ground wire problem. It enables the city to retain control of the subway privileges. It cuts off all possibility of monopoly. It will be a profitable investment. But unless the matter is closely watched the chances are that a subway monopoly will be granted. The Bell Telephone and other strong companies are taking care of their interests. The city’s interests need guarding, and general support should be given the effort of the Single Tax League to do this public service. _ 4 i alll i Two hundred newsboys on the down town streets are selling the Daily Post-Dispatch for two cents.

Weare now engaged in working outa new fiscal system to take the place of the happy-go-lucky makeshift which for so many years has been used to promote the fortunes of special interests and speculat- ing adventurers. The currency is tainted with an element of uncertainty which is the bane of real industry and which is a perpetual discouragement of legitimate enterprise. The borrower limits his busi- ness activity through fear of an apprecia- ting standard which stealthily adds to his obligations while the lender’s confidence isimpaired by a dread of depreciation in the money unit. Taxation, which should be imposed only to raise revenue for the support of Government economically administered, is at present employed chiefly to serve the purposes of privilege while the interests of the people are forgotten orignored. These facts have been recognized and the work of radical reform has beea ordered which shall place the country upon a healthy Democratic foundation. A war in Europe would put a stop to this reform work. An artificial prosperity would be evoked by the practical cessation ofindustry inthe warring countries, just as it was produced by the civil war. The people will forget all about common sense and financial wisdom and mistake a fever for the glow of health. Thus it has been in the past, and there is no reason to believe that it will be other- wise in the future. The popular belief that a great Huropean war should be welcomed as a grand oppor- tunity out of which America might grow rich is founded upon a most vicious jeconomic fallacy, It will no doubt en- rich many individuals, but it will not add to the prosperity of the country. Onthe contrary it will tend to emphasize the class distinctions which arye even now so clearly in evidence and, worse than all, tull the people into acquiesence in our present diseased condition. Let us hope that the great war may be postponed until we find a cure for the ills which tor- ment us. Se Ir is strange that in the face of the Wilson bill the factory of the Dobsons, near Phila- delphia, is about to open, employing 1,800 (2,000 hands), the Sanford ‘Carpet Mills (2,000 hands), the Greenwood Cotton Mills (1,700 hands), the Yonkers Carpet Mills 2,000 hands), the Mohawk Valley Cot- ton Millis (350 hands), 8 the ‘lias — eg yg OR.

This is one of the consequences of the plutocratic policy of protection. Foreign nations cannot buy of us unless we buy of them, and we have done what we could to kill foreign trade. But we have kept the home market, of which the farmers of the West enjoy the undisputed possession, at 50 cents a bushel. . -_ n. * THE dense fog of this morning put all the motorneers on doubie duty. They not only hadto handle their brakes but keep their bells clanging from one end of their route to the other. The oldest citizen could not tell where he was at,“ and got off atthe wrong place. The combined radiance of the street Mght, the headlight, the corner saloon and the stars of a brace of policemen scarcely served to enable the car men to distinguish a waiting figure at the crossing. On sucha morning the would-be passenjaire“ should dropa whistle into his pocket on leaving home. The shriek of a whistle will plerce a fog when all the corner lights fail. Many World's Fair visitors will sincerely regret that Secretary Carlisle has disallowed the $6,000 claim of Miss Phabe Couzins for pay as Secretary of the Board of Lady Mana gers. It cannot be that Miss Couzins had anything to do with the reception tendered Mr. Carlisle by the lady managers, which cost the gentleman $100, yet she is not to be paid for her services. Nobody can blame Mr, Carlisle for doing anything to get even, but ou Phoebe may have had nothing to do with that reception.

There are in the signs of the times good reasons for hopefulness and courage. The probability is that the worst is over, and that business has begun a course of improvement that will be steady and continuous. Two developments of the last fortnight are particularly cheerful. There have been fewer tailures than were expected. It was easily possible and was greatly feared that the immediate consequences of the new year’s settlements would be aumerous and heavy failures, spreading gloom and dis. couragement. The time has not been free of misfortunes, but they have been so much fewer in numberand less in magnitude than had been feared that there is a sense of posi- tive relief. Another favorable symptom is the resump- tion of work in many departments of in- dustry. It appears to be true now that more men are being employed than are being dis- charged. This is the condition of better times. If it continues it will bring good times. Wages may be low, Dut any wages are better than none, and all the neces- saries of life are as cheap as they can be under a high tariff. This noticeable improvement comes on the heels of the report of the Wilson Dill. Just at the time when, according to the protee- tionists, everything should be at the worst in view of impending tariff reductions, there is a distinct and perceptible revival. The demand of business is for a prompt es- tablighment of fixed conditions. The agony incident to a change has been endured. Ev- ery business is prepared for the new situa- tion, but desires it to be made certain. A new era of prosperity is before us. A Welcome Gint. From the Boston Post. It this Wilson bill should become a law,“ says the manager of an Alabama iron con- cern, “the foreign producersjwould ship 100,000 tons of cheap pig-iron to New York and Bos- ton, immediately glutting the marksof the East. And what a Welcome lat“ it would be! How the fires would roar again in the cold furnaces, the closed gates of the N mills swing open again, the d eserted shops be throiged with workmen not die With such a ‘*gint’’ the Cambridge Rolling Mills, the South Bostoa Iron Works, the Norway Iron and steel Works—aeli the in- dustries here in Boston that have been killed by McKinleyism—would come to 1e.

Tue Wortp is putting in. some very strong work for the measure, and has Gecidedly the better of its contempo- raries in the discussion of the question. Some of the so-called arguments advanced against an income tag by the New York papers show how weak is their cause. For instance, the Evening Post comes at it In this way: “If a maa with $4.000 a yoar-ought to pay more taxes than a man with $1,000 4 year, ought the man | witn $1,000 a year to have as much to say about the management of public affairs? Cor taln! should enly be allowed to vote once — „K man’s four times. It is absurd to say that the $4,000 man ought to pay more because he gets more pro- tection chan the $3,500 mea. He gets exactly she ‘Same protection. The $4,000 és generally a salary dependent on health and life, about neither ef which the State concerns itself, When as able a paper as the Post can Go no better than that, the cause must be des- perate indeed. A Bad Bacord. From the Philadelphia Record, The inaguration of Gov. McKinley fora ‘second term suggests to his admirers the happy thought that three years hence he wil! be inaugurated in a higher office. Three years are a long time to wait for an office or for anything else in this changing world. But practical Republicans who long for the spoils of office will think twice before taking as their candidate for President the man whose high tartff-free whisky programme has been repudiated at the ballot box in two presidential elections and in two sudcessive elections for Congress. Hungry and Unhoused. From the St. Louls Christian Advocate. The most important question before the American people to-day isto provide for the vast and increasing army of the unemployed. The streets of every great city in dur coun: try are filled with hungry, unhoused and idle men, who would willingly work if they could und employment. It is estimated that there are over 2,000,000 of these unemployed and destitute men, many of them with fam!- lies, who are wing on charity and who know not where the next meal is to come from.

When a recess was taken at 1 o’clock for lunchthe gentlemen stoutly protested that no meeting had been held, the — ga ® „ “tek purely of a social nature. man of "Kentucky, who presided . asked about a rumor that the ominy millers had met for the purpose of effecting a_ trust, denied it in emphatic terms. **Since there is going to be a publication of the meeting made,*’ sad Mr. Hellman, ‘*‘] will give you the facts in the case. We have organized notrust and could not if we so desire We tried to organize an association some. six years ago, but made a dismal failure, There are some forty hominy mills in the Unitea States, but we have never been able to get more than ten represented at any meeting we have held, which has been once a month in Chicago. of course,our meeting to-day is being held to benefit our own interests. The price of corn having gone up we are going to make an effort to raise the price of hominy. We accomplished absolutely nothing at our morning session, but hope to at our afternoon session.“ The reticent manner of the hominy millers has eaused the belief that this is their first meeting and that an attempt is being made to formulate a trust, although this is denied by Chairman Heilman.

Just Wow Perfectly True It 18 Ton Will Acknowledge. After You: Have Read Both the Begin- ning and the End. A writer has said that the sorrows greatly exceed the pleasures of life. This is not so, or atleast it should not be 80. Most of our sorrows and troubles come from ill health. Make yourself strong and well and you will find the joys of life far outnumber its troubles. People who are out of health, who, while not exactly sick, are always ailing, allow themselves to be depressed in mind, in other words to despair of ever again being in perfect, sound and vigorous health. They think that because they have not been cured by trying many things that there is no cure for them. Just how absurd and silly this is, is well expressed in a bright letter and hope in- 8 ag letter from one of our readers, 993 of 578 Atlantic 3» i Av. .

It is purely vegetable and harmless and will surely make you well. It is the discovery and prescription of a noted physician, Dr. Greene of 35 West rath street. New York, the successful specialist in curing all forms of nervous and chronic diseases. He can be consulted in all cases free of charge, personally or by letter. TRENTON COAL.
