LOUIS, MONDAY EVENIN OOK COCAINE == Thomas J. at the St. James. Breathed His Last Before the City Ambulance Arrived. HE WAS THE U EXAMINER IF THE UNITED STATES APPRAISER’s OFFICE. Me Registered at the Hotel Yesterday Attersee — Burned Papers tn His Roem Imdicate Seicide—A Gevern- ment Officer ter Thirteen Years. Thomas J. Haggerty, Chief Examiner of the United States Appraisers’ office, was found unconscious at 8:40 o’clock this morn- ing in a room at the st. James Hotel. He was writhing in convulsions. A doctor was summoned immediately, but the sufferer died in ten minutes. A City Dispensary ambelance carried him to the Dispensary, whence Dr. Fitzpatrick, Onding life, extinct sent the body to the Morgue. A bottle of cocaine partly used was found on a table by the bedside. No letters or pa- pers were found to indicate that Haggerty Intended to take his own life, and yet an ap- parent effort to hide his identity or conceal some record of the past was discovered in the charred remains of some papers in the little stove inthe room. When touched the stove was found to be still warm, showing that the fire could not have been out long. REGISTERED YESTERDAY AFTERNOON. Haggerty went to the hotel yesterday after- noon about 8 o'clock and registered. Pro- prietor Thomas B. Miller attended to his wants and assigned him to room 166. The Thos. J. Haggei ty. man retired here shortly, leaving a call for 7 o*’clock in the evening. Before that 1 he came down stairs of 0 and went out. He Peturned later in the evening with two com- nions and went once more to his room. It s said they had some beer there, but Mr. Miller states that Haggerty was not intoxj- cated when he registered, although he might have been drinking a little. The hotel people saw no more of him after he went to his room inthe evening, About 8:40 clock this morning Night Watchman Lyons of the hotel heard groans issuing from aggerty’s room. He rapped on the door but received no response. The alarm was von by the watchman and an entrance reed into the room. Haggerty was found onthe bed unconscious. He seemed to be suffering greatly. Dr. 8. K Mues of 618 Pine street was im- mediately sent for. He hastened to the hotel, but bad no time to do anything, as the sufferer diei within a few minutes after his arrival. Then the ambulance came and took the body away. The bottle of cocaine was taken in charge by the policeman. Dr. Miles did not ex- Amine it, but the labelon it stated that it was cocaine. According to this physician Haggerty was suffering from what is known tothe medical rofession as tetanis convulsion, which he t would more likely come from the taking of a pe earn altbough he said it was — that cocaine would ve the same ect.

Proprietor Miller of the hotel stated what he knew ofthe circumstances prior to the finding of Haggerty in his death agonies in the following words: ‘Haggerty came into the fhotel yesterday afternoon about 8 o'clock. He had a tall, light complexioned man with bim. I fecognized Haggerty because he has been around the hotel considerable. The other man I did not know. Iwas behindthe Cesk and Haggerty asked for a room, the light complexioned man remarking, He's been having a lIittle time and needs sleep.’ assigned him to 146. His companion went upstairs with him. Haggérty was not drunk, but had been drinking. In a little while the stranger came down and went outr Haggerty had left a call for 7 o'clock, Dut befors that time he went out. In the evening he returned with sev. eral men. They all went up to the room and ordered some beer. 1 don’t know how mach they drank, how long they stayed or whothey were. No one no- ticed them going out, but they were gone when Haggerty was found dying. Itcould not be learned who these men were. A good many people called at the Morgue during the morning, among them Collector Dako? — McCaffrey. close e There was no one, however, who intimated that they had been out with Haggerty the evening befere. He is said to have been seen with Max Liaman, a friend of his, at a saloon across from the old Oustom-house Guring the afternoon, but Mr. Liaman could not be found to verify the rumer. Mrs. Haggerty, who lives at Chestnut street, was so prostrated by grief as to be un- able to see any newspaper men. Stlas Hag- aerty,a brotuer of the deceased, did not hear of the death until noon and could shea no light upon it. Haggerty was a close friend of Chief of Po- lice Harrigan. The Chief saidthis mornin that he looked upon him as a son, and haa used his influence to keep him an examiner, to which place he appointed him when he was appraiser. Thomas J. Haggerty was 87 years old. He was the son of the late William H. Haggerty of this city, who at one time was very wealthy and one of the best known auction- eers in St. Louis. A PATH OF FLAKE.

Perv, III., Aug. 6.—The expected invasion of 400 strikers from Spring Valley, Seatonville and Ladds, which was planned at the mass- meeting of Saturday, failed to materialize. They were to prevesat, by persuasion or vio- lence, the men from going to work on the Carbon Coal company’s shaft this morning and, under the leadership of Vice-President Murray of the Mine Workers’ Union, ex- cted an easy task. Sheriff Taylor Drought own fifty deputies and the Ottawa Militia. The Law and Order League of thiscity was ealled out Sunday evening; pickets were laced on every road with orders not to al- ow strikers to cross the line detween La Salle and Bureau Counties and prepara- tions made which would have resulted in wholesale slaughter if 2 had resisted in attempting to carry out their plans. Mur- ray, their leader, was officially informed of the reception they would meet and their discretion overpowered their valor. Only a few scattered gangs appeared at the county line and were turned back without trouble. The militia met the strikers from the mines south ofthe river, and a short but lively ex- perience with the onets convinced the invaders that they bad no particular busi- ness on this side of the river. Meantime 100 men west down into the mine and are Work- ing at the Columbus scale. The Union shaft, owned by the same company, will commence work to-morrow, and plenty of men to operate it have already applied for work. THE WEATHER.

Believe It Is That of the Frisco Train Robber. | DETECTIVE DODGE AND AGENT BRAD- WAY VIEW THE BODY. — The Hands and Wrists Are Very Large, as Fergusen Described These of the Robber te Be, and a Peculiar Hand- kerchiet With Chimese Figures on It Was Found With the Remains—The Messenger Also Thinks the Drowned Mam Is the Robber. The officers of the Wells-Fargo Express Co. are almost convinced that the dead man who was (ragged frem the Meramec River at Pacific last Saturday is the masked robber who attempted to hold up the’ Friseo fast express last Thursday night and who leaped from the train after wounding Messenger Ferguson. The dead mananswers in every particular the description Ferguson gives of the robber and compares closely with a strange man whom the railroad agent at Eureka claims to have seen hanging about the water tank at his stationa few minutes before the passenger train arrived. Yesterday Detective Dodge and Route Agent Bradway, who huve been at work on the case day and night, went to Pacific to That Jap /s a Liar — — — — — —— a He Never Touched e. * view the remains of the dead man and com- pareit with the description furnished by Ferguson. They found the body had been buried by the local authorities within an hour arter it had been found, and without further investigation than that afforded by a hurried and carelessly conducted inquest. Noteven hadthe clothing been examined, nor had anything been done beyond turning the ckets inside out In search of what they might possibly contain. Nothing had been found except a big single-biade pocket- knife. pected opportunity afforded the robber while stealing a ride on thetrain. If premeditated the robber must have had a key to let bim elt into the car after Ferguson left it td check up the merchandise in the baggage car, and yet no Key was found on the dead man. if the act was that of a man who was stealing ride on the platform, Detective Dodge argues that Ferguson may have left the doorof the car unlocked, and the fellow noticing this, and finding the car unprotected, went in to steal anything he could lay bis hands on. ALLENDER’S BSOLIEF. Detective Allender of thé city police force, one of the shrewdest officers connected with, the Department, has devoted Dis entire time to the case from the hour it was first re- ported. He agrees with Dodge that there isa possibility that the attempt was the result of an accidental opportunity that was afforded by Ferguson neglecting to secure the door when he left the car, bat 7 thinks the body t meide u tha: ofa suicide and nas no conection with the ‘holding up of the train. Nor does he think the terrific explo- sions that tore the pliot from the engine and hurled part of it through the depot at Eureka had any connection with the shooting that took place a few minutes before in the ex- press car. His investigation shows that a car was loaded with powder and dynamite at the Eureka magazine about 5 o’clock in the afternoon and ieft standing oh the side- track near the depot, that the con- tents of the car have since been checked and the discovery made that a fourteen-pound can and two seven- und cans of rie powder were stolen. hese, he thinks, were placed on the track a short time before the passenger train came along. but he does not explain how powder could have been exploded immediately under the forward wheels of the en- gine, where there was no fire to ignite it, and where it could scarcely have been exploded, except by a fuse. e attributes the act to mischievous boys. Detective Allenderis at work on two distinct clews, which he hopes may result in identifying the men who were engaged in the hold up. TWO BROTHERS DROWNED. THE BODY. The express officials procured a spade and the services of Dr. Dunn and dug up the body. It had turned black, and was 80 fast decomposing that they could scarcely en- Gure the sickening stench long enough to make even a partial examination. The body was that of a large asd powerful man, com- pletely Slag. : | t wae: Gressed in | „ Diue eotton workman’s shirt and No. 10 gaiter shoes, Around the neck was a eolored handkerchief, with figures of Chinese char- acters. The face was smooth shaven, except for a medium size sandy mustache. A dig black slouch hat Dad been found in the bosom, with the vest buttoned securely across it. This was the only article except the jack-Knile that had not buried. There was bullet in the head above the right The physician ran a twil it, but was unable to locate the bullet. the request of the officers he cut open the head and exposed the wound from the place where the builet entered until itcame out immediately above the right eye. It was easily traced, and the examination showed that the bullet, while it fractured the skull, did not enter the brain and did not of itself cause death. ‘ BIG HANDS AND WRISTS. The size of the man and the make and color of his clotting tallied precisely with Fer- guson’s description, but there was another feature that still further impressed the officers—the hands and wristsof the dead man. Ferguson had told them that while he was struggling with the robber he noticed that his hands were unusually big and werful and that his wrists were almost twice as large as an ordinary man’s. This descrip: ‘ tion is identical with the hands and wrists of the found in the Meramec. Another feature is ths peculiar figured handkerchief that was fastened around the neck. Fer- guson says he knows the man with whom he battied in the express wore some sort of a mask, and that his im- ression is that it was something like a hinese face. The handkerchief, with its odd Chinese characters, might have caused such an impression when fastened across the upper part ef the robber’s face. These were all the facts that were ob- tained, the stench from the fast decaying re- mains being so great that no effort was made to remove the clothing or make further examination. The body was reburied. Detective Dodge severely criticises the local authorities at Pacific for not making a more careful investigation, and says that if he had been notified in time he would have brought the body tothe city and exposed it to view inthe Morgue, where he thinks it would have soon been identified if the maa came from St. Louis. . DETECTIVE DODGER’S THEORY. The theory by which he connects the body with the train robber is at least plausible. He thinks that after leaping from the car in which the shooting took place the robber got on the second section of the freight that was 8 the passenger train and that he de on it as faras Pacific. This is strength- ened by the fact that the dead man's hat was buttoned deneath his vest, The hat is an unusually big one and would dave been blown from its wearer's head if he was riding.on the outside of a train, and being too largeto putin a pocket there was nothing more natural than that it. be stuck neath the vest for safe . The section of the freight train which he might have boarded was flag & short distance east of the station at Pacific on account of the frst section and the passen- ger being held there for an hour after the robbery. It came to a standstill below the Water rank aes at a point immediately op- I was found and ‘with 00 8 the river. The Catastrophe to a Skiff Party in the Ohie River.

About 1 o’clock Sunday morning George Smith, a white man about 27 years old, was turned: over to Officers Hanrahan and M. J. O’Brien of the Central District by G. H.

The owners of the New York Club have about completed arrangements to play Sun- day games next year, not only on their trips to the West, bet on grounds of their own in the East. A deal for the lease of a piece of ground on Coney Island is about closed, and with a part of the money made by the team this year it will de fenced in and a handsome grand stand erected. Then President Young, or whoever makes up the league schedule for next year, will be asked to book all the games possible on Sundays for the New Yorkers. This move on the part of the New York owners will completely knock the underpinning from bDemeath the Pittsburgs, Bostonsand Quaker City people. They have been figuring lately in an effort to get a concentrated movement organized to eliminate Sunday bail-playing from the National League. * „ + It begins to look as though the finish would narrow itself down to Boston and New Tork. This seems to be the opinion of conservative and thinking enthusiasts as well as the dase ball writers of the country. Baltimore has undoubtedly made a grand struggle and its players are entitled to the warmest praise and sympathy. For alotof new men they dave put up a game of ball that has been the wonder and admiration of the base ball world, From early in the sea- son the wen have played like veterans and their team work has been 1 more than ecellent. If they should fall Dac atthe finish, it is only what might be ex- pected in a long race where the young is beaten by the veterans of age and experi- ence. High pressure will win in a short game, but it takes something more to carry ona long struggle. Weakness in the pitcb- er's box seems to bethe praesent defect, and itis quite possible that werdgne club to se- cure the services of another irler, so that the others could take it easy for a few games, the club might hope to land in better than third place, although that — would not be discreditabie to the clu om — * Three of the ‘‘champs’’—Hugh Duffy, Tom Tucker and Tommie McCarthy—made their debuts on the professional stage M the Bostons’ sojourn at the Monumental City. They appeared with Digby Hell’s Opera com- pany. It was not a difficult task they had, no lines to speak, Dut just merely to pose in a living picture. ‘*‘A Close Decision’’ was the subject of the picture. The three Bostonians were dressed in their uni- forms, Tucker covering the base McCarthy in the act of sliding and Duffy posing just after having thrown the ball. cQuaid, the umpire, was also init, with potas out, indicating d a Worip man that ression of vitriolic ecision wasa potent Glante his band waving up, „affe.

Ife Compromise Is Made on the Tariff the House Must Yield. WasHirGrox, D. C., Aug. 6.—Senator Palmer of lllinois is one of the best in- formed on the secret doings of his colieagues ofthe Sepate on the tariff. From certain assurances I have received within the last twenty-four bours from the most reliable sources, said he to-day, I am led to Delieve that an agreement will be reached, and the din reported dy Tuesday next, certainly by Wednesday. The conferrees are getti together beyond a doubt, and the only thing that bothers them now is the sugar schedule. This is ia a fair way of being a „ and I think that the conferrees will settle this to-morrow. **As to the exact lines of the compromise Dill, [am advised that it will conform very Closely to the old Senate bill. There will be nochange, 1 think, in the iron and coal schedule, and the sugar schedule will be changea in form, but not in substance. There is no other course open, and the House couferrees now recognize this fact. We must have a bill, and the only possible way to get 4 is by adopting the Senate schedule as near 1 5 The eu men are tting a little bolder their demands, but I believe it is more af than anythingelse. They not only de- mand the old Senate schedule, but insist on this year’s bounty, too. And what compli. cates matters more isthe attitude taken by the experts call Satineta weather. The course was around the Isle of Wight, start- ing eastward, once around, a total distance of about fifty-five miles. There were nearly 800 yachts of all sizes and descriptions lying in the roads. The American yachts Atalanta, White Ladie and May were conspicuous smong those fying the stars and stripes. Conspic- uous in the middle of the parade was a tall mast from which the American fiag was ~ ing. Over the gay spectacle a leaden sky frowned, threatening a showery day, but as a compensation a nice breeze was blown and the white caps were dancing at a lively rate. Duringthe early morning, excursion steamers from Southampton, Bournemoutn, Portsmouth, Southsea and other places, steamed into the roads. EMPEROR WILLIAM PRESENT. Larger numbers were assembled than were ever before gathered atan English regatta. Emperor Wililam reached here at 8 o’clock on board the imperial yacht Hohenzollern. — the day advanced the wind increased in orce. The Vigilant allows the Satineta 55s. ow ing to the reduction of the latter’s sail area, and the Vigilant allews the Britannia 2m. 22s. The three rival yachts gave the spectators A pretty exhibition of smart seamaaship de- fore the start as they cruised up and down, testing the wind from 9 ofciock until tho starting gun was fired. All three yachts started forthe line carrying ciubd-top sails and balloon jibs. Their times were in crossing the line: Satineta (cutter) 10:01; Britannia (cutter) 10:01:05 Vigtlant (sloop) 10:01:20. AN EXCITING OONTEST. At the outset an exciting contest occurred between the Britannia and Vigilant. The former was holding the windward position and the latter tried to pass her, but the Prince of Wales’ cutter immediately luaffed up and held the Vigilant. For a time both yaehts made little forward progress. The Satineta in the meanwhile rapidly forged ahead, and an idea directly struck all the spectators thatthe Britannia’s maneu- ver in holding the Vigilant was the result of a tacit agreement between the two Brit- ish captains to work. in unison 60 that the winner of the cup would be a British vessel, this being a day of Satinita weather and the Britannia having Dut a sm ali chance of winning. Therefore the latter could very well devote herself to apy | the Amori- can yacht. This maneuver so far succeeded that when the Vigilant ultimately got clear the Satinita was a long Way ahead. The times of the yachts in passing East Cowes Point were: Santinita, 10:11:82; Vigilant, 10:18:81; Britannia, : Santinita therefore had a lead of day against Dr. Charles M. Foster, to whom she was married in Buffalo, N. I., on Aug. 22, 1889, and with whom she lived until Feb. 7, 1894. She charges him with deing a habitual drunkard and having a morose and irritabie temper, which would Dreak out into violence at times. She asks foradecree in conse- quence. Got Naturalization Papers. Judge Fisher, sitting in Circuit Court No. 4 for Judge Dillon, granted naturalization papers to the following persons: Geo. W. Baals, Germany; John Rizineke, Bohemia; Johannes Gleicke, Germany; Henry Voegler, Germany; Peter Hessel, Germany, and Daniel Hall, Austria. — — TO ENJOIN A SALESMAN. Suit to Prevent a Drummer From Zell- ive tor Rival Concerns. John Rettenmayer filed a suit to-day in the Cireult Court against George H.

He claims he was damaged in the sum of $1,000. PRESBYTERY MEETING. Business Transacted and an Adjourn: ment Taken Until September. The Presbytery of St. Louis met at 1516 Lucas place this morning and received into membership Rev. Leslie L. Overman, formerly of Ohio, now pastor of Page Bouleyard Ohurch in this city. Mr. Overmanand the elders ofhis church were appointed a committeeto arrange for the installation. Mr. George O. Kirsten, of the Church of the Covenant, was taken under the care of the Presbytery as a candidate for the Gospel ministery. The application of the Second German Church to the Board of Home Mis- sions for aid for the s@pport of Pastor- elect J. F. Mueller was approved. The church is able to pay him $450a year,and it wants the Home Mission Board to supplie- ment this with $400. The Presbytery will meet the next time in regular fall session at St. Charles the third Tuesday in September.

The Philadelphia and Baltimore teams had been scheduled to play two games this after- noon, and all ot the players were either practicing on the fleld or in their dressing rooms. One of the by-standers noticed a narrow tongue of fame shooting up between the boards of the partition at the west endof the stand. The players on the feld did not think the fre serious, and severalof the dystanders started to pat it out. In an instant the entire structure was a roaring furnace. LOCKJAW SET IN. ee Stepping en a Rasty Nail Causes Little Ella Martin’s Death. Ella Martin, a school girl,9 years of age, died of lockjaw at the home of her step- father, Mr. Kane, 2625 Franklin avenue, about 9 o'clock last night, after suffering the most excruciating agony for three or four days. About a week anda half ago the child, while playing about the house, accidentally ranarusty nail into her foot. Her mother and step-father falled to have it attended to immedlately, not thinking it would result seriously. When — Ge * Lemen of 83228 Lucas nvenue was called in on Thursday he found that lock-jaw had set in and despite his efforts he could not check the awful disease. The little girl died last night after suffering the most terrible convtlsions. Her stepfather is a conductor on the Lindell Rallway. OBEYED THE ORDER. Sixty-Geven Strikers Enter Appearance to the Omnibus Injunetien. This was return dayin the United States Circuit Court and sixty-seven defendants in the injunction suit of the United States against Elliott and others entered their ap- pearance. This is the famous omnibus in- unctien suit. The entering of appearance sa formal proceeding. Another Continuance. The hearing of Wm. T. Yow and Robert Dunnaway, who are Charged with selling began upbraiding Katie and brother \ ill.am who was asleep and had been awakened by the nolse, came out on the scene in time to join in a general fight, in which John seemed to stand the concentrated attack of all. During the struggle a family watch dog of considerabie dimensions, éither out of pure instinct or sentiment, took a hand in the fight, and was as vusy as any ofthe other combatants, when the police arrived and took John into custody. This morning when the case was heard William and Hann both appeared with badiy lacerated thumbs and neither could tell whether or not their re- spective wounds were inflicted by the dog or their country brother. Judge Morris con- cluded that John was guilty of disturbing the peace and fined him as stated above. BONNE TERRE RAILROAD. The Purchase by the Burlington Net Generally Credited. The report thatthe Chicago, Burlinston & Quincy Rallroad had purchased the Mississ- ippi River & Bonne Terre Rallroad, a short road running from Doe Run, Mo., to Riverside, a distance of forty -seven miles, was not generally believed in railroad circles to-day. The Burlington officials them- selves deny the report and state that it was probably occasioned by an order the Burlington had given the Mississippi River & Bonne Terre road for a lot of Dallast. The report, how ever, seems to have originated ina plan the Huntington Lines were said to have on foot about a year ago to get into St. Louls from the south over their own tracks, in it was proposed to take Mississippi River & Bonne Rallway as part of their road. The Mississippi River and Bonne Terre line has no direct connection with St. Louis at present; their cars are brought up from Riverside to East St. Louis and St. Louis on barges by the Wiggins Ferry Co. The Burlington would, it is said, gain little, if anything, by the absorption of this little road, wulle to the Huntington lines it is of importance in any scheme to get into St. Louis from this southern territory over their own traeks. TO-MORROW’S MEETING. Passenger Agents Will Probably Consider That Texas Rate.

The measure of the distance the Senate bas drifted away from the people may be realized by the contrast now presented bo- tween the position of Democratie Senators and the sentiment of their constituents. There is not a Senator standing up for the trust and protection grabsin the Gor- men bill who could justify his conduct be- fore an assembly of Democrats. Sup- pose Senator Vest had to came be- fore the people of Missouri for re- election and bad to defend bie conduct in the Finance Committee and on the floor of the Senate. What could he say of his submission to the dictation of Gorman, Brice and Smith in secret conference, of his adherence through thick and thin against his principles as a Democrat, against the opposition of the President and the House, in violation of Democratic pledges and in defiance of the popular will, to a vicious compact in favor of plunder- ing combines, which would not be hooted by an assemblage of Democrats? How y- * oould he justify yielding to trust dictation felding trust allies, and resenting and opposing attempts to secure honest legis- lation? The course of the Senate majority isa revelation tothe people. It shows how dangerous itis to have a branch of the Legislature removed from popular control and how far sucha body can drift away from sympathy with popular sentiment. It demonstrates the necessity of bringing it under popular influences and compel- ling its members to go directly to the peo- ple for justification and renewal of official commissions. — — . — ——— CHINESE PATRIOTISM. As a result of overpopulation, over- taxing the productiveness of their country, the Chinese masses are doomed to harder work and leaner living than any other people on the face of the globe. Oft-recurring and frequent famines carry them off in such vast numbers that human life is almost as cheap there as insect /ife. Kills men like flies’’ is ever presentin their minds. It would seem that these people have no more reason to love their country or to cherish a reverent affection for its gov- ernment than a galley slave has to luve his gloomy prison and be grateful for his dole of bread crust and water. in America that they will swarm hither to live on the leavings of our wage earners and to work for wages on which an Amer- ican would starve. Hence the fear Yet we see that the poorest coolies among them, who sell themselves to the Chinese Six Companies for passage money to America, return in case and that the idea of returning to China to live never We of ly Japanese Minister from fury of Chinese mobs; that the Chinese regiment on board the Kow Shung would invariably provide for the their corpses to China their death during exile, of of departs from their minds. that the whole power Chinese Government scarce- to protect the departing the patriotic see the suffices let her British Captain surren- a Japanese man-of-war and went down with her rather than surrender as prisoners of war. Moreover it is evident that every Chinaman in the United States to-day is ready not only to fight for the Flowery Kingdom, but to freely give all his surplus wash money to her defense. It is the half-starved Highlander’e love of the squalid hut in his native glen over again. It is the master passion of patriot- ism, native to every land under the sun, and most intensein the bosoms of those whose lot in life is hardest and most hope- less. not — THE FERGUSON CASE. There is no provision, it is stated, for the reward of Messenger Ferguson, who nearly lost his life in defense of the money intrusted to the Wells-Fargo Express Co. and the Frisco Railroad. Will there be any recognition of this man's heroic fidelity beyond the privilege of repeating it and of risking his life again in the performance of ill-paid duty? Messenger Ferguson’s act in grappling with the robber whom he found in posses- sion of his car was one of surpassing courage and heroism. With all advantage on the side of the robber and heavy odds against himself he made a winning fight. With a practical certainty of injury and overwhelming chances of death he de- fended the company’s interests and drove off the robber, after inflicting what is now believed to be a mortal wound. It may be urged that Ferguson did noth- ing more than his duty. It is doubtful if under the circumstances this will bear Ee. and if a man, paid for clerical work and poorly paid at that, is required to risk his life in police duty. But grant- ing all that can be said of duty the stand- ard to which Ferguson rose was shiningly high.

We take the liberty of reminding the Comptroller and all other city authorities of the evi- dence that the taxes now provided for are not properly collected and a large amount of money to which thecity is entitled never reaches the treasury. It may be added also that there has been no dearth of revenue to expend on increased salaries and municipal jobs. 8 _ Tak Yznagas, Wetmoresand other Gegen- erate Americans have falled to get into the exclusive circles of the Austrias capital, but the daughters of Sir Pullman have been wel- comed there, and it is said thatthe New York 400 will take revenge by ostracising them this winter. But why should the Pull- man giris care for the measly 400? What does ostracising amount to when it comes from people who bave been Austriacised? Sir Pullman is in great luck socially and pe- cublarily all the time, aud only prompt legis- lation can call him down. _— = o~ * Ann.

Among the river men and merchants con- siderable Opposition had developed against the passage of the Bast St. Louis bridge bill, which is now in the hands of one of the Sen- ate Committees in its amended form after : passing the House of Representatives. This opposition has taken the form of letters of protest forwarded t» the committee and to enators Cullum, Vest and Cobb. The bill was called up for consideration in the Senate on Saturday morning, but Senator Cullom objected to its being taken up until he had heard from some letters he had writ- ten to St. Louis, presumabiy in answer to the protests he had received. It is believed that the bill will be taken up again in the near future, The objections appear to be based upon the factthat in the opinion of river men and others the placing of another pier bridge be- tween the Merchants’ and Eads Bridves would ren ier the most important portion of the St. Louis harbor much too overcrowded and seriously hamper shipping. Asa mat- ter of fact it is claimed that alrea iy there is too little space to spare for comfort. Shortly after the bili was introduced in the House President Boyd of the Merchants’ Ex- change calleda meeting of the Mississippi River (ommittee and placed the matter be- fore them for consideration and action. THE PROTESTS. A full inguiry was made into the present harbor facilities and as a result of the meet- ing President Boyd was authorized to send a protest Dased upon the above grounds to the committee having the dil in charge. This was done and since then several merchants and river men have backed up the initial step by forwarding similar letters of protest. Mr. Webb Samuel, President of the United Elevator Co., has taken an active part in the matter. He toldthe reporter this morning thatthe opposition was notso much to the bridge as tothe kind of dortige proposed. He thought that fa suspension bridge, in- stead of one supported by piers, had been proposed it would have met with general ap- proval. (apt. Mason and Mr. H. C. Haarstick Presiient of the st. Louis and Mississipp Valley Transportation Co., have been acting together in the matter and have sent several letters of protest and remonstrance to the .Issourt senators at Washington. Mr. Haarstick is away from the city, but Mr. Austin k. Voore, treasurer of the company, explained the objections urged, which were materially the sameas those formulated by the Merchants’ Exchange. The harber facilities are already so cur- tailed,’’ said he, that they do not meet the requirements of busy times, and navigation is more or less dangerous. With another bridge placed between the two at present in existence these facilities would be materially lesseped and the sources of danger greatly increased.’’ DEATH OF GOV. BLAIR.

She ran away with Frank Ricord last Monday and wrote her mother that she was married to Ricord and was livingin St. Louis with him. Fielder met Ricord yesterday morning in Clarksville and was told by him that he and Maud Were mar ried and living at 508 U’ Fallon street. Fielder came totownto verify the statement, and could not find Maud at the number stated. Ricord was found in East St. Louis last nigut and was brought to Assistant Chief Ready.

The average annual rainfall over the whole earth Is 36 inches. Ihe principles of rainfall were first cor- rectly set forth by Dalton in 1787. Parasites that prey upon filés sometimes become so full of blood that they are visible to the naked eye. About 1,000 specimens have been found of one Meteorite which exploded over Winne- bago County, Ia., in 1890. Among flowers chrysanthemums live the longest after being cut.

Felt hat makers here and elsewhere are much interested in an experiment under- taken orm the Delaware coast, where rabbits were turned loose of an isiand with the ex- pectetion that the creatures would in time multiply so largely as to furnish a great number of skins for felting. There has long been a considerable trade in the rabbits skins all over the peninsuia of Delaware and Maryland. The preliminary plans for the great South- ern Exposition, to de held in Baltimore in 1897, contemplate fifteen bulldings, to cost about $1,600,000.

Mind and Body. What can biology tell us about the mind? The mute history of the world’s evolution speaks to us more plainly than words, and the lesson taught us is that the higher the development of the being the more intri- eately complex is the nervous system. That che mind can cause disease of the body, the accumulated testimony of the ages empnat- ically bears witness. Weare told in Koman history that impressions made upon the mother while carrying her infant before birth might seriously affect, for good or l, both the physical development and mental characteristics of the offspring. | Of Interest to Women.

EMANN, Execcutri p_Will Get Her no we Pi ace ithe aily Evening and Sunday Mor ning Post-Dispatch | in your : Homes for — EE 4 * THE GENUINE MODERN WOMAN. — > It dia not seem to him that he could give herup, dut she was an artist; more than that, she was a woman of undoubted genius. He had read all the books about women of genius tied to ordinary men, from ‘*The Story of Avis’, to David Grieve,’ and he knew perfectiy well from the study of these authorities that she could not love him—at least, not as she loved her art. Also—thouagh this, of course, was a minor consideration— he was acquainted with one or two womer of gonids who had married, and he observed that they were not the only persons discom.- fited by the situation, for a man can suffer as acutely from a disordered housebold asa woman froma blighted talent and a ruined career, From pondering these cofisiderations it modern lives go—he had never told her 90, nor asked her to share — wa He felt sure that it would pain ner tender heart to retuse him, and this is a pang from which all but the most heartless men would save the women they love. Although he considered his unbappiness inevitable it often made him very iow in his mind, and ordinarily he relieved himself by railing at Fate and the Modern Woman. On one’of these occasions he dropped in at her studio late in the afternoon, although he was quite aware that she preferred to re- ceive him inthe evening in the flat which she shared with her sister artist. She was alone and tired. Her sitter—she was a portrait painter—had just gone, and she was in the act of making a cup of tea for her own use. The tea table was an inviting one; the in - tle kettle purred cosily ; she handled the tea- ball gracefally with pretty and expressive bands. He sat on the edge of His chair and stared at her miserably over the top of his teacup. Whegpe broke his morose silence it was to remark with rude didacticism: **The popularity of the tea kettle and the chafing dish in good society seems to me a The kitchen is so attractive that even the drawing-room cannot dispense with its graces. A woman who is barred out of her kitchen by a French chef will still cling tothe privilege of using her chafing dish, and in her case it is beautiful and significant that it should be so, dut— he hesitated a moment. ‘*well?’’ asked she politely. „don't see what, from that point of view, you are doing withatea Kettle. You have abjured all that it stands for; you have found something better than the domestic Ute. He endeavored to speak with that philo- sophic calm which should impart the favor of impersonality to what Ne said, but there was bitterness in his tone. „That is nonsense, responded the wo- man of genius crossiy, for her work had not gone woll that day. Tea tables are pop- ular because women need stimulus and chaf- ing dishes because men like substantial nourishment. I certainly have gnot abjurea tood. Personally I adore domestic life, and I like it all the more from the fact that it is not the only career open to me. In general it adds the element of grace to the life and of the only form, but because itis the sweetest of all. 5 * 0 ‘*Those are pretty views-very pretty.“ he remarkea gloomily,‘‘but I have not observed that you practiced them. It isn’t of any par- ticular avail for salvation to assent with one’s intellect to any orthodox doctrine while one’s actions are still heretic. You have refused tbe things that are best of all.“ ‘*Who said I had refused them?’’ she de- manded impatiently. „Tou wouldn't have me marry the wrong man just to show that my views upon the woman question were conservative, would you?’’ , ‘*Thatisan easy thing to say; but you Know you will never find the right one. yh She looked at bim—a curious, measured, wondering gase. There was scorn in it, but was it all scorn? „No, she said slowly. Iam not mas- ol da tod enough for that. Iintend to let him and me—even though We play at hide-and- seek together all our dars. It was rather dificult for this man to ad- mit an important idea off-hand into his mind, but something ae Pe voice stirrea him so that he sprang feet. 11 — It was half an hour later before it occurred to him that all this was violating precedent. Do you suppose you can be happy?’’ he implored, and then he brought up the sub- ject of the booxs in Wwhieh the married woman of genius had always been misera- ble. He refrained, however, from speaking of those households which had fallen under his observation in which the husband of the genius had been dissatisfied with the cooking of the heefsteak, Oh, books,” said she, with an Infinite. scorn, lla vont you ever noticed that peo- ple write the best about things of which — — wee absolutely nothing?

But I intend to give up nothing! | Iam afraid you are a little stupid. „Would you mind “explaining: the situa- tion to me? he asked numbiy. That is very easy. She said composedly. I simply don’t intend to be unequal to the combination of love and art. polite The luminous Drilliancy of this solution kept him silent while she went on: Line “Those women you read about, you know, modern when they tried to do things—they . were working against a tremendous, though, invistble pressure.

UFOR AN AMERICAN GIRL. - The Great Good Fortune’ of the Wite of Baron Hickey—The First Instance of a Monerch Quietly Taking Possession ofa Territory That Belongs to No- body—The Place Described. Anna, of Trinidad, is the latest and most im g title ever secured by an American girl. Such will be the distinction bestowed on the Gaugh- ter of John Flagler, the Standard Oil Millionaire, dy her husband, the Baron James A. Harden Hickey, when he com- pletes his arrangements forjcragning him- self King James First, sole proprietor and ruler of a bran new nation. That history repeats itself is an accepted adage, but the yet-to-be-written history of the kingdom of Trinidad will form a fiagrant exception to the rule. According to the plans of the Baron it will be the first instance ofa monarch quietly taking possession ofa territory which Delongs to nobody, which is claimed by noone and coveted by no one, Where thereare no rights to be trampled in tue mud, and no natives to be slaugh- tered. A LITTLE POWER TO ITSELF. The Baron claims to have hiton the least bit of habitable earth, capable of support- ing a considerable population which has escaped the grabbing greed or the annexa- tion passion of the powers, and he proposes to make it a little power to itself.

N Wm. Shoemaker, a brass polisher, was stabbed and probably fatally finjured dy Louis Woldschmidt, at Thirteenth aad O’Fal- lon streets, about 10:30jo’clock last night. Shoemaker says that Woldschmidt cut him because he refused to buy a glass of beer. Shoemaker was taken to the City Hospital. One of the wounds was the longest gash that Dr. Marks has ever seen. It began on he tshoulder and extended to the hip. The injured man is Very weak, but was able to tell the following story: ‘‘Ilive at Cass and Blair avenues. Last night I was on my way home,and when I was passing by tue corner of Thirteenth and O’Falion streets I was accos Louis Waldschmidt whom I knew slightly. He asked me if I would 7 a glass of beer.

There were present Chairman Mamtt and secretary W. J. Zeveley,{members§ex- officio, Ex-ecutive Committee Ohairman 8. B. Cook, and members A. 0. Sherwood, Dr. J. R. Brown and R. E. Lozier.

City Counselor Marshall, m response toa request from Mayor Walbridge, delivered to- day an opinion defining the rights and duties of public officers. The opinion is the result of the protest made some time ago by a delegation of mechanics that city fremen were compelled to do carpenter work on the engine houses. Mr. Marshall decides that it is illegal to em - ploy firemen on such work.» The opinion is comprehensive and includes many other questions. It also declares that sec. 120 chap. 10 of the revised ordinances of 1693, which amends sec. 119, chapter 10 of the revised ordinances of 1887, is invalid. The effect of this amendment purports to be thatthe Commissioner of Supplies may, with the approval of the President of the B. P. I., employ such mechanics and laborers as ~ be necessary for carrying oa the work. City Counselor Marshall, however, in de- claring this amendment invalid says that it would allow the Commissioner of PubDiic Bulidings no power to make or recommend repairs on the engine-houses. MANNER OF LETTING PUBLIC WORK. He also defines the manner of letting pub- lic work as follows: The Beara of Public Improvements must prepare and submit to the Assembiy estimates ef the cost of the pro work. The Municipal Assembly must pass an ordin~ ance autherizing the work and make an approriatien based on the estimate of the 6vust to per or the same. he Board of Public Improvements must adver- tise for bids as provided for purchases by the Com- missiener of Supplies, and let out the work by con- a . / * * 0 „ . 2 83 aie ay 3 N oa 2 yh 22 7 Ie W 3 9 * , A é 8 5 5 1 * « NMMO P CRE PSOE ade Nis!

They’re of proper tional fnance and the tariff, on which a wide difference of opinion exists between the country and city members of the party. With regard to the work of the Kepublican State Convention, Mr. Cook believes that it willbe whatever the Filleyites of the State may choose to make it. Mr. Cook said: ‘‘if it were a mere question of popular strength I presume Mr. Joseph Flory would be nomi- nated for Railroad Commissioner by accla- mation, butit is Impossible to say that this will de done, as the Republican bosses may when they get on the ground have some entirely different plan in hand, in which case they would have no dificulty in setting Mr. Flory aside.

Mark had given it out that Mr. Filley should not attend the State Convention, andifhe could make this threat good, the prospect for the success of the Silks in retiring Filley from the state Committee was delleved to be flatter- ing. In this crisis, Filley’s od cer. Charles D. Comfort, sent for Chartrand to come to is omce. Ohar- trand went and Comfort talked harmony and regularity until Chartrand began to think the Filleyites were on the run. Comfort got * argument to the right place, and then said: Now. Chartrand, you see there isn’t going to be any coptest against you out there; su name your <Gelegation.’”’ Mark named Nathan Frank, J. PF. Vastine, Thos. Wright and himeelf, but added: 17 there isn’t going tobe any contest against me, Comfort, i don’t care to go on the ticket, ou go on in my place. No, business matters inferfere; I can’t go tojthe convention. But you put Filley on in your place. Eventhen you'll have three of the delegates, and he can’t hurt you. and gant 5 — con- vou. ¥ elp a Here's id.“ * Chartrand fell into the trap, and made up the delegation as stated. The day the dele- gation must be fled Chartrand went to the office of Secretary Rohifing, where he found John Henry Pohiman, both as close to Filler asthe old wide-awake hat. He told them the story, and after HKohifing had told Chartrand that no other ticket had deen offered, Chartrand, Rohifing and Pohiman went tothe Recorder’s office at 5 o’clock in the afternoon and filed the Filley-Frank- Vastine-Wright ticket. There Chartrand was informed that no opposition ticket had yet been filed, and the twocunning Filley- ites and the gulleless Chartrand left the office. Immediately a young man named Russell, who is em ployed in the Collector Ziegenhein’s office, but whois not known in politics, who had been waiting in the haliway for Chartrand to come and go, slipped into the office and fled the real Filley the Society for the Suppression of Crime, and also a post-office inspector, announcing the arrest of Harry Milton Upp at York, Pa., on the charge of sending obscene matter through the mails.

Inquiry at the office of the Board of Education revealed that no one of that name had ever taught in the public schools of this city. Mr. Comstock gave Mr. McAfee informa- tion of evidence found on Upp which may lead to some prosecutions in this city. tract to the lowest responsible bidder, The contract so let must be eee by the City Council before the city is bound.

All other work must be authorized by ordi- nance and let to the lowest bidder. The Board of PabNc Improvements can contract for only such repairs as are declared to be emergency repairs, with- out which grave and serious injury might re- sult to city property. The opinion concludes with the following: Firemen eannot lawfuily be employed on Fire De- Dartment repairs or improvements, and all city Heeres should be informed that it isnot in their power to order work or repairs, except in the man- weight for wear from now till late in the fall, F.
