' ) Bonds to Redeem and Cancel Bullion Notes a Should Be Issued... » \ 4 These obligations to Run Cent Interest. Fifty Years at Three Per — tive Springer’s Enabling Act. The President sent a special message to Congress to-day urging immediate action to avert financial disaster and sustain the nation’s credit. n He recommends that Secretary Carlisle de authorized to issue fifty-year bonds, bear- ing 8 per cent interest, for the redemption and cancellation of legal tender and Treas- ury notes issued under the Sherman silver purchasing act of 1890. Inese bonds to be in denominations of $20 and $50 and their multiples. The faults of the present financial system by which the banks are now enabled to raid the gold reserve are pointed out and the suggested bond issue proposed as a remedy. Congressman Springer has prepared and will present to the House a bill empowering the Secretary of the Treasury to carry out the President's recommendations. WASHINGTON, P. C., Jan. 28. resident Cleveland to-day sent to Congress the fol- lowing special message on the financial sit- vation: ; ‘5 To the Senate and House of Representa- tives: In my last annual 1 message 2 to your consideration the condition of our netional finances, and in connection with the subject indorsed the plan of currency legislation which at that time seemed to furnish protection against impending dan- ger. This plan has not been approved by the Congress. In the meantime the situation has so changed that the emergency now ap- pears so threatening that I deem it my duty to ask at the hands of the legislative branch of the Government such prompt and effect- ive action as will restore confidence in our financial soundness and avert business dis- aster: and universal distress among our people. Whatever may be the merits of the plan outlined in my annual message as a rem- edy for ilis then existing and as a safeguard against the depletion of the gold reserve then in the Treasury. I am now convinced that its reception by Congress and our pres- ent advanced stage of financial perplexity necessitates additional or different legisla- tion. With natural resources unlimited in variety and productive strength, and with a people whose activity and enterprise geek only a fair opportunity to achieve : ws * 3 *. 5 5 a 5 N 1 1 national success and greatness, our prog- ress should not be checked by false financial policy and a heedless disregard of sound monetary: laws nor should the timidity and fear which they engender stand in the way of our prosperity. It is hardly disputed that this predicament confronts us to-day. Therefore, no one in any degree responsible for the making and execution of our laws should fail to see a patriotic duty in honestly and sincerely at- tempting to relieve the #ituation. Mani- festly this effort will not succeed unless it is made untramelled by the prejudice of par- tisanship and with a steadfast determination to resist the temptation to accomplish party advantage. We may well remember that if we are affected with finan difficulties all our people in all stations life are con- cerned and surely those who suffer will not receive promotion of party interest as an excuse for permitting our present troubles to advance to a disastrous conclusion. It is also of the utmost importance that we ap- proach the study of the problems presented as free as possible from the tyranny of pre- conceived opinions to the end that in a com- mon danger we may be able to seek with un- clouded vision a safe and reasonable protec- tion. | . The real trouble which confronts us con- sists in a lack of confidence widespread and constantly increasing in the continuing abil- ity or disposition of the Government to pay its obligations in gold. This lack of con- fidence grows to some extent out of -pal- pable and apparent embarrassment attend- ing the efforts of the Government under existing laws to procure gold, and to a greater extent out of the impossibility of. either keeping it in the Treasury or ¢can- celling obligations by its expenditure after it is obtained. FUTILITY OF THE PRESENT PLAN. The only way left open to the Governmen for procuring gold is by the issue and sale of bonds. The only bonds that can be issued were authorized nearly twenty-five years ago and are not well calculated to meet our present needs. Among other dis- advantages they are made payable in coin instead of specifically in gold, whigh in existing conditions detracts largely and in an increasing ratio from their desirability ' a8 investments. It is by no means certain that bonds of this description can much longer be disposed of at a price creditable ‘to the financial character of our Govern- ment. g The most dangerous and irritating feat- ure of the situation, however, remains to be mentioned. It is found in the means by which the Treasury is despoiled of the gold thus obtained without cancelling a single - Government obligation and solely for the benefit of those who find profit in shipping it abroad or whose fears induce them to es! De ge’ thoard it at home. We have outstanding t. five hundred millions of currency of the Government for which gold may demanded; and; curiously enough, the + requires that when presented and in d in gold they shall * the same notes do drawing gold ffom th V gain an advantage in repéating the opera- on. More than $300,000,000 in these notes have already been redeemed in gold, and notwith- standing such redemption they are still outstanding. Since the 17th day of January, 1834, our bonded interest-bearing debt has been increased $100,000,000 for the purpose of obtaining gold to replenish our coin reserve. Two issues were made, amounting to fifty millions each—one in January and the other in November. As a result of the first issue there was realized something more than $53,000,000 in gold. Between that issue and the succeeding one in November, compris- ing a period of about ten months, nearly $103,000,000 in gold were drawn from the Treasury. This made the second issue nec- essary, and upon that more than fifty-eight millions in gold was again realized. Be- tween the date of this second issue and the present time, covering a period of only about two months, more than $69,000,000 in gold were expended without any cancellation of Government obligations or in any way ben- efiting our people or improving our pecu- niary situation. The financial events of the past year suggest facts and conditions which should certainly arrest attention. More than 472,000,000 in gold have been drawn out of the Treasury during the year for the purpose of shipping abroad or hoard- ing at home. While nearly one hundred and three m s of the same were drawn out during first ten months of the year, a sum ng more : of that t, being about sixty-nine millions, t amoun Was drawn out during the following two months, thus indicating a marked accelera- tion of the depleting process with the lapse of time. THE PROCESS MAT GO ON. The obligations upon which this gold has been drawn from the Treasury are still out- standing and are available for use in re- peating the exhausting operation with shorter intervals as our perplexities ac- cumulate. Conditions are certainly supervening tend- ing to make the bonds which may be issued to replenish our gold less useful for that purpose. An adequate gold reserve is in all circumstances absolutely essential to the upholding of our public credit and to the maintenance of our high national character. Our gold reserve has again reached such a stage of diminution as to require its speedy reinforcément. The aggravations that must inevitably follow present conditions and methods will certainly lead to misfortune and loss not only to our national credit and prosperity and to financial enterprises, but to those of our pecple who seek employment as a means of livelihood and to those whose only cap- ital is their labor. It will hardly do to say simple increase of revenue will cure our troubles. The apprehension now existing and constantly increasing as to our financial ability does not rest upon a calculation of our revenue. The time has p d when the eyes of investors abroad and our people at home were fixed upon the reyenues of the Government. Changed conditions have at- tracted their attention to the gold of the Government. There need be no fear that we cannot pay our current’ expenses with such money as we have. There is now in the Treasury a comfortable surplus of more than $63,000,000, but it is not in gold and therefore does not meet our difficulty. SILVER CANNOT BANISH GOLD. I @ennot see that differences of opinion concerning the extent to which silver ought to be coined or used in our currency should interfere with the counsels of those whose duty it is to rectify evils now apparent in 9 8 financial situation. They have to con- sider the question of national credit and the consequences that will follow from its collapse. fhatever ideas may be insisted cn as to silver or bimetallism, a proper so- lution of the question now pressing upon us only requires a recognition of gold as well as silver and a concession of its importance —rightfully or 88 acquired—as a baste of national credit, as a necessity in the honorable diacharge of our obligations able in ld and a badge of solvency. o not understand that the real friends £ aver desire a condition that might fol- result the entire banishment of gold from our = currency arrange- ments.

While I am not unfriendly to silver, and while I desire to see it recognized to such an extent as is consistent with financial safety and the preservatioh of national honor and ,} credit, I am not willing to see gold entirely banished from our currency and finances. To avert such a consequence, 1 believe thorou and radical remedial legislati should 8 passed.

Since the first reports of destitution in Ne- braska were published, newspapers in Omaha and other parts of the State have claimed that these statements were greatly exaggerated. To get at the truth Nellie Bly is now going through the parched districts and her truthful’ picture of the situation there, drawn for Post-Dispatch readers, is given in the following telegram from the scene: VALENTINE, Neb., Jan. 28.—One glimpse from the railroads of the home life and one is convinced that the tales of destitution in Nebraska have not been exaggerated. I drove over thirty miles around the country and saw nothing but misery and desolation. Imagine one broad and level stretch of land, with a sky closing over like a dome, and sky and land apparently meeing and forming a perfect circle. Tig sky is of Italian blueness, not a cloud in sight, and the air as soft and balmy as on a perfect October day. But all the land lies desolate, covered with yellow stubble of corn stalks that never matured and grain that never came to a head. The dust in the roads is many inches deep, and one finds it difficult to realize that it is winter. Cheered by the blueness of the sky and the balminess of the air, I thought Nebraska was not.a bad place to live in until I re- membered to look for signs of life. I see for miles, but not a single sign of life, man, beast or plant met my gaze. Trees there were n After driving several miles we saw in the distance a homestead. A little sod house, with one window and one door, a sod stable and the inevitable wind-mill. The wind-mill was still, an old Wagon lay turned up near the stable and all about everything lay barren and yellow.

But there is no such hope to hold out to those who have no friends. No seed, no stock—nothing but the barren land. Seed there was none, and stock has gone at ri- diculously low prices to keep life in them up until this time. It is a hopeless condition. It must not be considered any easy matter to visit the homes of these afflicted people. They have all taken up land, and often anywhere from sixty acres upward, so that travel from’ house to house is a work of months, no two houses being closer than three miles. | 4 5 Remembering’ this, and that two out of three homes are deserted, it will be easily understood how I could drive over thirty miles and only visit two families. The next family I found lived in a tiny frame house. There were six children in the family. Mother, who was making bread, seemed like a very intelligent and res able woman. She was an American. had to do some talking before I could fersuade her to confide in me, so dreadfully do these people feel their poverty. „We have never asked for aid,“ she said, ‘but there is no reason why I should be ashamed to tell you how poor we are. We are not to blame. All we could do we have done. But the hot air last summer burned everything up. Yet we did not suffer from extreme heat; but it just seemed that every time a few drops of rain fell the wind rose and drove the rain away; just as it is with the snow. We've only seen a little snow in the air, but the wind drives it away. It does seem as if Nebraska is going to dry up completely.“ NOT ONE EAR OF CORN. Won't you give me some idea of what you raised last year?’’ I asked. “I can tell you in a moment,“ replied the woman, with a bitter smile.

The neighbor repeated my question to the sick woman. “We only had two good crops in eleven years,"’ was the pathetic reply. ' LOOK AT HOME. Tell me of the heathen in Africa, and I will tell you of the people in the West who have not seen a church in years. Tell me of the poor in Ireland, and I will tell you of orer in the West. Tell me of the labor of iberia, and I will tell you of the harder labor in the West. Send your missionaries West; keep your money for your own, and it will be better for us all. Although I traveled so many miles in this thinly-settled country, and when with so many have gone, I only managed to see three families in my day’s work. But the sights I saw in their sod houses and the carcasses of starved animals lying along the wey, I am told is only what would see all over the stricken part of Nebraska. The hot wave traveled over the State in one line, and everything fell deso- late and dead before it. Other parts of the State are all right. Mr. George Crager, the noted Indian interpreter and the United States special agent, was my guide. No man knows this part of the country better. Doubtless the readers of the Post-Dispatch will remember him as the man who captured Big Turkey during the late Indian uprising and brought him in to Gen. Miles. Mr. Crager says that thirty-one miles from Valentine, in Rewanee and Sparks, there is great destitution among the German and French settlements, but as one can only get there ay driving, and as the sand is over the hubs, to get tnere and back is a matter of extreme difficulty. When we came back from Valentine to- day we found that a supply of goods had been shipped to this point from the East, and twenty-eight barrels of clothing, 100 barrels of flour, twelve barrels of potatoes and two steers had been divided among the destitute families who had driven to town for aid. What provision is to be made for those whose horses are dead and who are otherwise unable to get to town I know not. On Thursday last I went to Omaha, where I had a talk with Mr. Nason, the President of the State Relief Commission. We have more stuff now for the sufferers than we can possibly use,“ he said. “We have provided clothing for everybody and have car loads of it packed in our store house. We don’t want any more clothing or food; what we need is money.“ Thereupon Mr. Nason showed me bills to prove that for $189 and some odd cents— money sent to him from Boston—he had bought from the railroad company 100 tons of coal, which at market price would have cost The railroad company merely charged Mr.. Nason what it cost them for labor; freight to points of delivery was ree But I have since found that coal cannot possibly be delivered to the greatest guf- ferers—such people as I have visited to-day —and if the relief commission has more clothing than it needs, none of it has been sent out this way. MEANS OF RELIEF. After my talk with Mr. Nason I went to gee the warehouse in Omaha, and as I ex- pected from Mr. Nason’s talk to see it jammed to the doors, I was thunderstruc to find myself in a large room containiag the following articles: Three bags of coffee, four of rice, four boxes (small) of groceries (all bought for some store in Omaha), six barrels of old clothing, four bags of potatoes—but that was all. The whole lot would not have more than filled a quarter of a car. m Omaha I went to Lincoln and had a talk with the Secretary, Rev. Dr. Ludden. r. Ludden is very courteous and kind and dreadfully overworked. He was ready and willing to tell me anything and to help me all he could. But all he could say was that plenty of relief had been received and distributed. Mr. Nason says that between $1,500 and $2,000 had be¢h received up to the time I gaw him. hey both spoke of the complaints that had been made against the committee, and, while I was ready to see faults on both sides, I must still try.to impress donors with some idea of the difficulties before even those whose only desire is to aid the suf- ferers. Charity is a difficult matter to deal with. The sufferer usually receives the smallest share. But in this case there are thousands of families, even according to Mr. Nason’s list, in Nebraska, who will have to be. fed until next Septemiber. That is a big work, and caution is necessary, or the sympathy and money will be exhausted before the peo- ple are really helped. Indiscriminate money giving is bad. Dr. Ludden has already had numerous complaints from people who have sent money to private individuals in differ- ent towns. The money h&s never been used. Still, it is a big thing to put all the money and relief in the hands of the relief commis- sion. My experience to-day, and it is my first, shows that their efforts to aid have not been thorough. They may have, as Mr. Nason rms, more supplies than can pos- sibly be used; but if Mr. Nason thinks Spey have in his warehouse he is migtaken. could distribute all the pest pope | he has ong the three families—consisting in all of twenty-three 8 Saw to-day. From this Iwill go o other counties afflicted by the drouth. y the way, the State com- mission informs me that it is useless for rsons to send supplies for any particular family. as they cannot be troubled in 75 0 ing distributions.

Objection has been made to the issuance of interest-bearing obligations for the pur- pose of retiring the non-interest bearing le- gal tender notes. In point of fact, however, these notes have burdened us with a large load of interest, and is still accumulating.

I cannot refrain, however, from adding to an assurance of my anxiety to co-operate with the present Congress in any reasonable measure of relief, an expression of my de- termination to leave nothing undone which furnishes a hope for improving the situa- tion or checking a suspicion of our disin- clination of disability to meet with the strictest honor every national obligation.

The firemen succeeded in getting the flames under control by 11 o’clock, but by that time the whole i | was gutted and its contents consumed. he damage is estimated at between $30,000 and $40,000. The building was put up only a few years ago at a cost. without appointments, of $23,000. It is only partially insured. None of the guests’ belongings were insured. The firemen had a cold fight of it, be- coming covered with an icy coating in but a short time. The 2is were obliged to stop work for a time owing to interference by an Easton avenue electric car. They had built two bridges over the tracks from a hydrant to the south of Easton avenue, over which they carried their hose. Car No. 50 came sweeping down town at a tre- mendous rate, and the trolley pole not 1 lowered far enough caught the big hose an away it went, fifty yards east of Grand av- enue, the bridges falling with a smash. It was ten minutes before they could get disentangled. By 11 o'clock the roomers who had gone down town had heard of the catastrophe and they began showing up with very long faces. Eddie Von der Ahe was about be- wailing the loss of his library, which he said was very valuable. What its nature was he did not describe. Joe Weinstein, a clerk in Rice, Stix & Co.'s store, lost his diamond stud. He took it out of Kis tie this morning and put it in his trunk. He has been wearing it stead- ily for five weeks anti the irony of fate is at present very manifest to him. TYLER’S HARD LUCK. George P. Tyler, in addition to losing all of his furniture and other appointments, bad some more hard luck. Just before the fire he took off his business suit, in the pockets of which were $200 in bills, and put on a working suit in order to attend to some matter in the basement. He was down there when the fire started, and his money was burned up. Among the other guests who lost every- thi they had were Mr. and Mrs. Wilson McMahon, Ferdinand Bock, Emil Stegner, the druggist on the corner of Grand and Easton avenues; J. J. Ernst of the Sonnen- feld Millinery Co., John J. . 3. . ‘ nnett, ‘Williams, Charles Williams, C. J J. B. Bauer, Miss Laumann, Miss Ribble, Miss Green and Mr. Webster. It is estimated that the avera loss of the guests is between $300 and ö The Hogan Bros., whose names are Mi- chael B. and John B., owned the building and the store entirely. They were also in- terested in the hotel on the two upper floors with Tyler. BELLEVILLE NEWS. Burned by Gasoline Explosion - Tram . Bun Over—-Notes, I. w.

The assengers werd nearly dead and terribly tened when the engine arrived and pu the train out of the tunnel and on to he bridge. The train came to a standstill on the brid and the windows and doors were opened and the fresh air was permit- ‘| ted to pour in until the passengers were revived. Then the train was fro my over to the Relay Depot in East St. Louis. After arriving at the Relay Station physi- clans were summoned and examined the passengers who had been overcome, Re- storatives were applied and they soon re- covered. A numbér of the passengers left the train at the Relay Station and returned to the city. The train was delayed at the station forty minutes while the physicians were administering to those affected. The bridge tur nel is just a mile long. As everyone knows who has gone through it, even in the six or eight minutes it usually takes, the air in the cars becomes close and stifing. To people who are nervous or afflicted with heart trouble even this brief time in the tunnel is a hardship and ladies frequently are so overcome that it takes them hours to recover. But when it comes to remaining stationary in the tunnel and not knowing when one is going to be able to get out the feeling of those so confined may better be imagined than described. Supt.

Y., Jan. 28.—David Hamp- ton, the murderer of Mrs, Ahrens, was elec- trocuted at 11:13 this morning. He was ap- arently resigned to his fate. He spent his on earth with, his spiritual ad- ev. Fr. Creedon and Rev. Fr. Mc- and Sisters Mary and Clotilde from f the Good Shepherd, Tarry Town. Fr. Creedon administered the rites of communion to the c emned man. Hampton's crime was the murder of Mrs. Annetta Ahrens, a widow, 70 years old, in her apartments in West Fifty-fourth street on the night of Dec. 30, 1892. Hampton and his wife had at one time boarded with Mrs. Ahrens, who owned the building in which. she lived. She had accumulated money by ren out rooms, but being of a miserly tion she had kept most of her money in a cotton bag under the bed. Hampton ew this, and one morni stole $85 and ed from the house with his wife. Mrs. Ahrens followed him up and demanded that he return the money. Hampton was heard to say that if the old lady did not stop bothering him he would cut her throat. On Mrs. Ahrens was found in with her throat cut from ear e@ washstand near the bed w nger stall which belonged to e murderer. This was all the clew the lice had to work on. The knife was iden- tified as one Hampton had stolen from a boarding-house keeper named Mrs, Johnson. The morning after the murder Hampton went to Mrs. Johnson’s house and showed her à roll of bank bills and gold. The mon- ey was in a white cotton bag like the one in which the d woman kept her money. The next day »9ton met Joseph Pasico and — Myeeys he ot oF, his — 12 he wo accompan m to Newark. e showed Pasico a roll of billig and the gold. The two men went to Newark, where Hamp- ton purchased a complete outfit of cloth- ing. He th disa and was ar- rested on Feb. 16. When the murder was committed Hampton had a sore finger and wore a finger stall. He was placed on trial for the murder and found guilty and sen- tenced to be executed last year, but his case was taken to the Court Appeals, and when the decision was ed down sustaining the action of the lower court he was again sentenced to die to-day.

Strong Combination Forming to Gray Prevent His Re-Election. — 13 2 7 CASTING ABOUT FoR THE MOST AVAIL- ABLE CANDIDATE, : ’ * . ' *. *. ee Judge Rose, Dan w. Jones and Düne Talked of for the Place—Berry Must ve on the First Ballot or Ficht It LITTLE ROCK, Ark., Jan, WA opposition to Berry’s re-election to thé Sen- ate has developed during the past twenty- four hours, and it is freely predicted that unless he captures the prize on the first ballot that a dark horse will be elected. Ex-Gov. Fishback is satisfied that he can- not be elected, and is willing to transfer all his votes or so many of them as he can deliver to some ‘strong candidate who can command enough strength to defeat Berry. The man he is in favor of defeating Berry with is no other than Judge U. M. Rose, who is regarded as one of the ablest men in Arkansas. Judge Rose was at one time — for the Attorney-Generalship in eveiand’s Cabinet, and would e appointed to the position if — N accepted. He is the senior member of one 2 the leading law firms in this mds § and e Arkansas member of the Nationa Dem- ocratic Committee, He is a man of con- siderable wealth, and one of the most cul- tured citizens in Arkansas. No one denies that he would be an honor to the State if elected to the Senate, and it was given out yesterday that he is willing te accept the position. The fact that he ‘seldom comes down town on Sundays and that he was seen at Gleason’s Hotel yesterday afternoon, where he rem several hours in consultation with the anti-Berry forces, gives current to the rumor that he is exerting his personal influence to help along his boom. Another candidate for the Senatorship ‘is Hon. Dan W. Jones, ex-Attorney-General, and a prominent member of the Silver League. Every member of the Legislature has been spoken to in regard to his candi- dacy, but very few have promised to vote for him. He has been advised, however, to enter the race and will do so not so much for the purpose of defeating Berry, but in the hope that a deadlock will occur and that he will succeed in ng off the honor. The friends of Gen. Jones believe that there are enough free silver members of the Legislature to elect him if they will make this the issue in the Senatorial contest. On the other hand, it is well known that Berry is a free silverite, and {ft is hardly possible that any such issue will be raised in the fight. Hon, Sterling R. Cockrill, ex-Chief Jus- tice of Arkansas, is not a candidate for the Senatorship, but his name will be used, and it is claimed that he will receive at least ten votes on the first ballot. Cockrili has all along said that if he was a candi- date for the Senate he did not know it. He has never intimated that he would ob- ject to anybody considering him as a candidate, and he is ce n to receive some votes on the first ballot. It is now anything to beat Berry, and should he fail to be elected on the first ballet, not many ballots will be taken fore a number of changes will occur which, it is believed, will not be to the in- terest of Berry. Pulaski County, with its six votes, is uninstructed, and is counted on for Berry. But with Rose im the field, the members will probably vote solidly for the distinguished lawyer. It is estimated that Berry will have sixty votes on the first ballot, which lacks seven of the number sufficient to elect. Five of B ’s support- ers will not be present on Tuesday, having been excused for an indefinite period on account of sickness, and two of Fishback’s friends are absent for the same reason. If the estimates of the anti-Berryites are cor- rect, Berry will not receive more than fifty-five votes on the first ballot. Leadin politicians appear to be of one mind, an that is, if Be is not elected on the first ballot he will be defeated. On the other hand, the friends of Berry claim that .he will be elected in either house with votes to spare, and that no ballot will be taken in joint session. HOLMES ESTATE HEIRS.

His Holiness’ Desire Is That the Catholic Church Help Bring About the Increas- mms Greatness of America—Text of the “Encyclical. . WASHINGTON,, Jan. 28.—The Pope's en- cyclical was made pvblic to-day. The vital portion concerning Mgr. Satolli is as fol- Wen the Council of Baltimore concluded its labors, the duty sttll remained of putting, so to speak, a proper and becoming crown upon the work. This, we perceived, could Scarcely be done in a more fitting manner than through the due establishment by the Apostolic See of the American Legation. Accordingly, as you are aware, we have done this. By this action, as we have else- where inti to certify ; * y ; and imperial. In addition to this, le d in mind to draw more closely the bonds of duty and friendship which connect Jou and so many thousands of Catholics --with the Apostolic See. In fact, the mass olf Catholics understand how salutary our action was destined to be; they saw, more- Over, that it accorded with the usages and Policy of the Apostolic See. 7 For it has been from the earliest an- tiquity the custom of the Roman pontiffs in the exercise of the divinely bestowed of primacy in the admininstration of church of Christ, to send forth legates peoples. And they this, not by an adventitioug but by an inherent right. For the Roman pontiff, upon whom rist has conferred ordinary and immediate jurisdiction, since he can- not personally visit the different regions and thus exercise the toral office over the flock entrusted to him, finds it neces- sary, from time to time, in the discharge of the ministry imposed on him, to dispatch legates into different parts of the world, accordi ng as the need arises; legates who supply his place, may correct errors, make the rough ways plain, and administer to the people confided to their care increased means of salvation. F But how unjust and baseless would be the suspicion, could it anywhere exist, that the powers conferred on the legate are an obstacle to the authority of the bishops. Sacred to us (more than to any other) are the rights of those Wwhom the Holy Ghost has placed as bishops to rule the Church of God. That these rights should remain in every nation, in eyery part of the globe, we both desire and ought to desire, the re so since the dignity of the individual ops is by nature so interwoven with | dignity of the Roman Pontiff that any ‘,4easure which benefits the one necessarily protects the other. My honor is the honor of the universal church. My honor is the unimpaired vigor of my brethren. Then I am truly honored, when.to each one due honor is not denied. Therefore, since it is the office and func- tion of an apostolic delegate, with what- soever powers he be vested to execute the mandates and interpret the will of the ntiff, who sends him, far from his ng of a detriment to the ordinary power of the rey tT: he will rather be an acces- sion of stability and strength. His authof- ity will possess no slight weight for preserv- ing in the multitude a submissive spirit, in the clergy discipline and due reverence for the. bishops, and in the bishops mutual charity and an intimate union of souls. „And since this union, so salutary, consists mainly in harmony of thought and action, he will no doubt bring it to eg: that each one of y shall persevere the diligent ministration of his diocesan affairs, that one shall not impede another in matters of government; so that one shall not pry into the counsels and conduct of another; finally that with disagreements eradicated and mutual esteem maintained you may all work together with combined energies to promote the glory of the American Church and the general welfare. It is difficult to estimate the good results which will flow from this concord of bishops. Our own people will receive edification, and the force of example will have ick effect on those without, who will be persuaded by this“ ar- gument alone that the divine apostolate has | - Gescended by inheritance to the ranks of the Catholic Episcopate. „Another consideration claims our earn- est attention. All intelligent persons are „end @e ourselves have with pleas- ure intimated it above, that America seems destined for greater thin Now, it is our wish that the Catholic Church should not only share in, but help to bring about this prospective greatness. We deem it right and proper that she should, by availing her- self of the opportunities daily presented to der, keep equal step with the republic in the march of 1 1 at the same time striving to the utmost, by her virtue and her institutions, to aid in the rapid th of the States. Now, she will attain th these objects the more easily and abundantly in proportion to the degree in _ which the future shall find her constitu- tion perfected. But what is the meaning of the legation of which we are speaking, or what is its ultimate aim, except to neers | At about that the constitution of the chure shall be strengthened, her discipline better . fortified? Wherefore, we ardently desire that this truth shall sink day by day more deeply in- to the minds of Catholics; namely, that they dan in no better way safeguard their indi- vidual interests and the common good than by @ielding a hearty submission and obedi- ence to the church. _-“"Phis closes the reference to the American delegation, and the Pope proceeds to discuss the indissolubility of marriage. 4 TO WORKINGMEN To Catholics entéring societies of working- ' weightier interests. .

HOW IT WAS RECEIVED. The President’s Message Excites Much Interest in the Senate and House. WASHINGTON, Jan. 28.—There was a ee attendance on the floor to-day when peaker Pro-tem. Richardson laid the Pres- ident’s message before the House. When the reading was concluded there was a round of applause from the Democratic side, in which quite a number of Repub- licans joined. Mr. Springer, chairman of the Committee on Banking and Currency, moved the refer- ence of the message and the administration bill to his committee, and this motion, after some opposition, prevailed. ? In the Senate there was the largest at- tendance of Senators since the session be- gan. There was the utmost quiet while the message was being read and Senators on both sides gave it the closest attention. At the close of the reading Mr. Sherman (Rep.) of Ohio suggested that it be re- ferred to the Finance Committee and this motion prevailed on a viva voce vote. ‘MISSISSIPPI VALLEY NOTES.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., Jan. 28.—Follow- is the report of the Legislative Com- ‘mittee 8 by Gov.

Representative Bittinger to visit, inspect and examine into the re- ceipts and expenditures of the several State educational, 8 and reforma- tory institutions. In compliance with that rovision the Governor did, in November, 894, appoint Charles E. Peers, Senator- elect from the Tenth District; J. F. Dayid- son, Representative-elect from Marion County, and John L. Bittinger, Representa- tive-elect from Buchanan County, di- rected them to meet at the State Capitol, which they did on Nov. 27, and for the purpose of organization. The committee met on that day and organized by electing Senator Peers Chairman and naming Robert M. Yost of St. Louis as Secretary. From thence they proceeded to the various cities and towns where the State insu.utions are located to perform the duties required of them by law. Your tes is gratified that the public institutions of Missouri are well managed, economically conducted, and that their books and accounts are in satisfactory con- dition. From our investigations we find no species of recklessness, no very important inattention to duties and no mismanage- ment anywhere. On the cqntrary, all build- ings huve been kept in as g¥od repair as the appropriations warranted, the officers have exerted themselves in the discharge of their several duties and have shown a pride in developing their institutions that they may cell those of a similar character in any of the Western States. It h been a question in every State as to the Proper government of public institu- tions, whether by local boards, State boards or county boards; or-whether by a con- tinuous system of investigation, or whether by supervision through the several State departments. A comparison instituted by your committee between the methods of government employed in this State and those employed in other States abundantly demonstrates that Missouri has no reason to complain of the system of management that she now maintains. EAST ST. LOUIS BRIDGE. Senator Cockerell Stands in the Way of the Measure. WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 28.—Senator Palmer of Illinois intended to call up the East St. Louis Bridge bill in the Senate to-day, but has deferred his intention until he can get an assurance from Senator Cock- rell that no objection will be made. The measure can only be reached outside of its regular turn on ine calendar by unanimous consent, and an objection, therefore, would knock it out. The last time I saw Senator Cockrell he to.. me he would offer no objection if I called it up,“ said Senator Palmer to the Post-Dispatch correspondent, and he wanted me to wait until he could hear from certain parties in St. Louis. According I shall not make a move in the matter until I see him again and get his assurance that he will not oppose it.“ Senator © vkrell is going slowly in the premises it. order to assure himself on all points in volved in the controversy over the expediency of the bridge. C. H. Haarstick of St. Louis arrived to-day and it is under- stood has come on here to use his influence in preventing action on the bill in the Senate. IN COLONIAL COSTUMES.

Was Much Afraid of Grannis, Her Former Partner, and Said That His Violence Had Caused Her to Faint—Missing Valuables, The inquest on the body of Rebecca Land, the woman found dead in her room in the McLean Building, 319 Market street, last Friday morning, was held to-day. The evi- dence of most of the witnesses only tended to deepen the mystery surrounding her death and leaned strongly toward the theory that the woman was murdered, with rob- bery as the motive. During the morning Alexander Longley called at the Coroner’s office and told a story which adds considerable weight to the theory of murder. He stated that he knew the deceased well. She worked for him, doing clerical work in his office for about six weeks commenc- ing in January, 1893. Since then he has seen her often. Last Wednesday evening she called at his house and appeared to be in great trouble, but refused to tell him the reason. Several times 3 his acquaint- ance with Mrs. Land she had spoken of some trouble she had with her former part- ner, Grannis. According to her story, when shewent into the employment office she bought the business outright and aid trannis rent for the room and furniture. Grannis, she said, always tried to collect more money than his rent and would de- mand part of the proceeds of the business. She said he frequently abused her and grew greatly excited on her refusal to give him more money than was due him, and on several occasions he had insulted her and abused her so violently as to cause her to faint. Mr. Longley also said that Mrs. Land told him a few months ago that three or four men had come to her room the night be- fore about 11 o’clock and tried to force an entrance. She thought it was Grannis com- ing to endeavor to force more money from her and she raised the window and called for help, whereupon the men ran away. Mr. Longley also said that Mrs. Land pos- sessed a fine gold watch and other jewelry and usually. had money on her person, though not of a large amount. He is firmly convinced that she was murdered for her money and valuables. HAD VALUABLE JEWELRY. Mrs. Alline Trussell, a trained nurse re- siding at 3032 Franklin avenue, stated that she had known the deceased for about three years. She had occupied a room in the same building with her at 1517 Olive street when they first became acquainted. She said she had seen a valuable gold watch set with dia- monds in Mrs. Land's possession and also other valuable jewelry, consisting of Odd Fellows’ emblems, which she said had be- longed to her husband. She said the watch was worth about $500. Alfred W. Green, a brother of the de- ceased, stated that he had not seen his sister since March. He had heard of her being afflicted with a cancer through a n at his home at Carrollton, III. e stated that she had told him she owned some property and that he knew her to be possessed of a diamond ring, gold watch and other jewelry. In ‘his opinion she usually carried more or less money on her person. William S. Land, the dead woman's hus- band, testified that he married her Dec. 1, 1891, and left her the following February. He refused to state the cause of their sep- aration. During the last two years he said he has known nothing concerning her, not even her whereabouts. He knew that she owned some property in Florida and Texas, but was not aware of its value. During the time they lived together he tried to get her to sell this property and invest the proceeds here, but he said she got angry and refused, saying he was trying to get possession of it. She sued him for a divorce some time ago on the grounds of desertion but the case had not come to trial Mrs. Ella Cole, who lives in a room ad- joining the one occupied by the dead wom- an, testified as to her acquaintance with Mrs. Land and to the finding of the body. James Clark, the janitor of the building, testified as to the finding of the body. Dur- ing this testimony he exhibited a good deal of nervousness. He repeated having seen the woman about 7 o’clock on the morning she was found dead. H. S. Harrington of Ellendale, Mo., said that he had known the woman several weeks in a business way. About three weeks ago she had sent a girl to his home to do housework. This girl had told him that Mrs. Land had often told her that she stood in constant dread of harm from x Uving on the third floor of the 8 whom she said were gamblers. Mr. Harrington’s statement was corrob- orated by his wife. . Dr. Hochdoerfer, who made the autopsy, testified to finding her neck and two of her ribs broken; also to bruises on her body and finger marks on her neck. Policeman Fred Armstrong testified to the condition of the body. e stated that the body was cold and rigid, and in his opinion the woman had been dead at least fifteen or twenty hours. According to his statement Janitor Clark must be mistaken in his statement that he saw the woman the = morning that her dead body was found. City Undertaker Sheehan, who removed the body to the Morgue, also stated that the body was perfectly stiff when he arrived, soon after it was discovered. He noticed fresh wounds on her neck on which the blood had dried, forming sort of scabs. In his opinion the woman had been dead twelve or fifteen hours. Mrs. Ella Cole stated later that the fold- ing-bed in Mrs. Land’s room was in per- fect order when the body was found and had the appearance of not having been oc- cupied during the night.

NEW YORK, Jan. 27.—The ministers of Brooklyn discussed the strike from théir pulpits yesterday. In the Hanson P E. Church Rev. Dr. Louis A. Banks sai ‘Whoever shall win this strike, the unde- niable fact remains .nat the men ought to have received the wages they asked. And if the business of the street car com- panies will not warrant the pune t of such wages, then there is not sufficient demand for their running to warrant their operation.“ “The Strike and Its Lessons,” was the. subject of Rev. A. C. Dixon’s prelude to his sermon in the Hanson Place Baptist Church. He said in part: Every strike should be made a peni- tentiary offense to those who order it, and every refusal on the part of the employ- ers to submit to the decision of a fair and impartial court should also be meanor. A strike is a barbarism not to be tolerated in a civilized community, and if courts do not exist which can adjust differences between employers and em- ployes they should be established at once.“ ev. . Wilson, pastor of the Simpson Methodist-Episcopal Church, Clermont and Willoughby avenues, said he was of the opinion that the companies w at fault. ‘Granting that the compan have suf- fered in the general depression, he said, so that they were less able to meet the de- mand than they were two years „there was never a time when the employees 60 much needed an increase of wages as they need it now.“ Rev. J. A. B. Wilson at the West Eigh- 8 Street Methodist Church last night said: “Ev armory in this city is a menace to the liberty of the workingman and ought to be torn down. They are built to protect corporate capital. I'll tell you how to solve two great problems: Tear down the.armor- ies and let the city build on their sites ten- Story tenement-houses with vators— model tenements, where the wo ing — can be housed decently and healt lly. The armories have all got to be razed to the ground. The people will risé in their might and destroy them with their ballots. You may laugh at me and may say it’s fool-talk, and that we can’t do it. We will do it. We will make it a city question if need be, but they must come down, An- other trouble is the kind of men that Are allowed to figure as ers of the labor- ing men.

It is a bad sign when we are getung to be us they are in Europe, with large bodiés of armed men to keep the 21 down. This labor question never will be solved until the gos- pel of Jesus Christ is used to solve it.“ Rev. Dr. I. W. Hathaway of the West- minster Presbyterian Church at Magnolia and Summit avenue, Jersey City, preached last night on the strike in Brooklyn. He took for his subject: The Typical Man,“ who, he said, loved gold more than God and Christianity. It is a bad scene we have been called upon to witness in the city of Brooklyn,” said Mr. Hathaway. “During the past two weeks a scene of civil war—brother nst brother—scenes of strife, hatred and . A scene to cause the Goddess of Liberty to weep, and should cause every lover of his country to mourn, as well as blush with shame. The whole trouble lies in the fact that our economic system from center to. circumference is anti-Christian. It is heathen—root, trunk and branch. Instead of being unselfish, our economic system is purely selfish. Instead of being a sy for the many, it is for the benefit of the few. Instead of an uitable distribution of God-given wealth, it is a system that concentrates the wealth in the hands of a few. Instead of brotherhood, it is master and slave.

Work—@oider Weather for Tuesday- Skating and Sleighing at the Park Sunday. : : Passengers on street cars and brave men who dared to trudge through the snow did not reach their places of business on schedule time this morning. The cable and electric trains admitted the might of the small white flakes, and the companies set in motion the mogul brooms, which swept the trasks with a loud whirl. At the down-town terminals dozens of cars stood inactive awaiting their turn to start up-town. Hundreds of passengers got off cable and Laclede avenue electric cars at Seventh and Eighth streets, on dees and hurried to work, impatient at At the employes’ entrance to the big stores men and women knocked, got no answer, and hurried to the front door, invariably cursing the snow that delayed them, and subjected them to the penalty for arriving a few minutes late. BRAKES DID NOT WORK.. Owing to the slippery condition of the rails, even after the brooms had gone over the roads, the car brakes did not operate with their accustomed force, and wheels spun around, but did not move forward. Hence on many electric lines the motor- men did not heed om would-be passengers, but let their cars proceed, glad that it was in motion. At 7 a. m. the mercury in the Weather Bureau thermometer showed a reading of 8 degs. above zero, as low a point as was reached during the night. At that hour half an inch of snow had fallen, and the likelihood was that several inches would lie on the Ievel before the fall ceased. All trains arrived at Union Station on fairly good time, thus indicating that the effects of the storm had not yet been felt. We will doubtless feel the effects of the storm to-night,”’ said Stationmaster Jerry Coakley. The trains arrived this morning 2 as good time as if the weather were r.“ The snow was a result of another south- wester like to the one of Friday evening. But the present storm is sweeping from Texas across the Gulf of Mexico, and St. Louis is on the outskirts of its field of influence. Local forecast official Franken- field predicts that the weather will clear off Monday night, and make room for a fair and continued cold day on Tuesday. He expects the temperature to fall to-night, and he looks for zero by Tuesday. Very cold weather prevails throughout the North- west. The average temperature Sunday was 9 degs. above zero. SKATING AND SLEIGHING. The day was an ideal one for lovers of winter sports, and thousands patronised cutters, coasters and skates. The skates were the favorites, and thousands went to Forest Park in the hope of enjoying the great day of rest, by gliding over the glassy ice. The street cars going to the park were decorated with signs which read: Skat at Forest Park.“ The railway companies and the owners of the Park privileges had announced through the Sun- day papers that the lake had been planed and the ice made smooth, but the many who rode out on the Lirdell cars and tried the quality of skating did not discover the re- sults of the planing, and wisely concluded that the ice had been left in its original condition of roughness. ' Many skaters left Forest Park and went to Lafayette Park and elsewhere. At Lafayette Park a large crowd skated all day. In the afternoon when the fine cut ice began to hinder motion, a heavy scraper, pulled by a horse, cleared off the surface. DUESTROW BACK. The State Will Present a Stronger De- fense Next Time. Clreuit Attorney Zacbritz was asked by a Pogt- Dispatch reporter if he was going to have physi- clans to try to cure Arthur Duestrow of paranoia so as to get him in shape to be tried next April at Union for the murder of his wife and child last February. The little Circuit Attorney laughed when the question was propounded to him and said, He has no paranoia. Asked as to his plans in preparation for the next inquiry into Duestrow’s mental condition Mr. Zachritz d: “I intend to have him examined by experts, and expect to be much better prepared than I was this time. I dave until April to make preparations. This time I was very much handicapped. The de- fense had the ammunition purchased with $30,000 and accumulated during a year. I had no one but a few physicians who don't claim to be ex- perts and who gave their services out of courtesy to me. I paid their expenses out of my own pocket. Notwithstanding the odds that were against me they did not down me. I tell you I made the fight of my life in the case. I am very glad to see that I have been given credit for what I have done. Ctreult Attorney Zachritz statement that the physicians who testified for the State do not Claim to be experts is not to be taken as a reflec- tion on the physicians, nor was it meant as such. It is simply the truth. Dr. Warren G. Priest, Chief Dispensary Physician, and Dr. Heine Marks, Su- perintendent of the City Hospital, both of whom testified favorable to the State, modestly do not pose as mental experts, although their experience would entitle them to the claim, and the mental condition of citizens is passed upon by them quite frequently, and persons either restrained of or given their liberty on their decisions.

The Proposed Investigation Promises to Be a Harmless Inquiry. JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., Jan. 28.—Repre- sentative Swanger of Sullivan, Chairman of the House committee appointed on Friday to investigate the Excise Commissioner's office, is already giving indications of having received instructions from his party’s cau- cus dictators. In ‘discussing the pending visit to St. Louis with Representative David- son, the Democratic member of the commit- tee, Mr. Swanger said that he did not appre- hend that more than one day would be re- quired for the investigation of Nick Bell’s office; and as he was anxious to get back to his duties as a member of the Auditing Committee, he presumed that all the com- mittee would need to ascertain was whether Nick Bell's fees are excessive, and that could be readily determined by a few hours’ examination of the books and records of the office. He did not say a word to Mr. Davidson about the investigation of Col- lector Ziegenhein’s office, which is also pro- vided for in the resolution, and it is here that the majority and the minority of the com- mittee will disagree, if at all. “If they. had simply wanted to know whether Belus „ excessive, they there afe plenty who will admit But they have discovered that there is small probability of finding that Nick Bell has received anything but what the law gives him, and they want to avoid, if possi- ble, an investigation of the Collector's office. But if they think I am going down there to fool away my time they will be very much mistaken, If there is anything wrong with the Excise Commissioner’s office I want to know it; and if there is anything wrong with the Collector’s office I will know it, and I will see that the ple of this State shall know it too. But I have this request to make of the citizens of the city of St. Louis through the Post-Dispatch—it any of them know or have reason to believe that anything is wrong about the management of either of these offices, I will thank them to indicate it to me. not expect that much assistance will ex- tended me by the Republican members of this committee in the investigation of the Collector’s office, I would be teful—and the people of the State would grateful— for the appointment of a competent short- hand reporter to take down every word that is said by and before that committee; and also for an expert k-keeper to go through the books and accounts that may be placed in our hands. The majority of this committee will be able, if they are so disposed, to prevent the summons of wit- nessess and the production of books and papers, but if the citizens of St. Louis will aid me in this matter I promise that the investigation shall not be a sham. I am not going down there for my health.“ When the House Militia Committee came to consider the Davis militia reorganization bill, it made few changes, principally for the reason that its members were not suffi- ciently well versed in the science’ of arms 4o be able to intelligently amend it, and therefore they took the word of the National Guard officers present that the measure was all right.

HONEST INQUIRY NEEDED. Little faith can be placed in the inves- tigation of the Collector’s and Excise Commissioner's offices in this city by the committee appointed for that purpose by the House. The intention of the Repub- licans was to investigate the Excise Com- ‘| missioner’s office alone as a means of securing partisan capital, and the addi- tion of the Collector’s office was the re- sult of a tactical move of the Democrats. It is mot likely that there is anything wrong with the Excise Commissioner's office, except the fee system, and the pur- pose of the committee and the influences under which its majority must work threaten to render its labors in the Col- lector’s office of little value. But there is need for a genuine investi- gation of several offices in this city. The Collector's office demands a thorough overhauling and its connection with the revenue of the State makes it a proper Subject of legislative investigation. Re- form legislation concerning it is badly needed. The expected petering out of the Mayor's commission and the failure of all Grand-jury inquiries show the futility of local investigation under pres- ent conditions. But there is another office the investi- gation of which is demanded by the wel- fare of the people. That is the Circuit Attorney’s office. The recent disgraceful betrayal of the State’s cause in the Troll trial is the culmination of a series of out- rages in defeat of justice committed by or under the direction of Circuit Attorney Zachritz. The Foerstel case, the Zieg- enhein inquiries, the Butler case and other instances of brazen subservience to political pulls suggest a fruitful field of inquiry. The Circuit Attorney's office is the key to the citadel of justice. It is impossible to root out criminality and corrup- tion unless the administration of that office is pure and honest. The people are helpless when it offers a shield for rascals. The farcical action of the House offers an opportunity for the Senate to come to the rescue of the people. Something must be done to re- lieve the people of this city of the polit- ical ring which thrives on official abuses and holds the hands of justice. AN EASILY SETTLED QUESTION. If the adoption of the Council fender bill hinges on the question of the value of fenders and the possibility of securing fenders which will greatly reduce fatal- ities and serious injury in street car ac- cidents, the bill must become a law. A simple but efficient fender is in use in this city. Sixteen persons are known to have been saved by it within two years. BEbfficient fenders are in use in other cities and the proof of their value may easily be secured. Baltimore is now enforcing a law for the use of fenders. But if no fenders had been devised and there were no proof of their efficiency, it would still be the duty of the Municipal Assembly to compel the street car com- panies to check the appalling slaughter of human beings by providing some sort of protection for the public from the wheels and machinery of their cars. The record shows that as they are con- structed at present the motor cars are death-traps and the ordinary obligation of humanity and public safety demands a life-guard which shall save life. It would be a just act to compel the com- panies to provide such guards as a part of their duty to the public. But the ques- tion of fenders may safely be left to the Board of Public Improvements. The reckless disregard of human life by the street car companies must be stopped. They must be forced by law to use the streets with the least possible danger to the people and especially the young and infirm. 5 — 2 * — CONSUMPTION INVESTIGATION. Whether the consumption serum dis- covered by Dr. Paquin and tested with apparent good effects, or whether any other particular cure for consumption is € ual or not, it is gratifying to observe _| tha medical science has taken hold of the study of consumption with earnest deter- mination to master it. If there is any disease that deserves the mame of the “scourge of mankind,” that disease is consumption. Its ravages are appalling. Unlike the dreaded Spi- demics, its destructive work is constant. It annually claims a host of victims from every class of society. The discovery that consumption is in- fectipus under certain conditions, that it may be communicated from one person to another, suggests that much of its ravages in the past has been caused by carelessness. Probably a large percent- age of cases charged heretofore to hered- itary tendency was due to infection and because of blood taint, but through infec- tion from neglect of precautions. Isolation of dangerous cases promises to do much to check the work of the dis- ease and the new energy which is now being shown in the investigation of meth- ods of treatment and means of cure promise excellent resflts in the fight against this arch ally of of death. Banker Heidelbach, in en explaining why our gold flows across the sea, says we owe to Europe annually, for money spent by American travelers abroad, about $100,000,000; for freights carried in foreign ships, about $100,000 000; for divi- dends and interest upon American secur- ities still held abroag, minimum $75,000,- 000; for profits of f reign corporations doing businees here, dnd of non-residents, derived from real tate inv estments, partnership profita, to., about $75, The total is 3380, 000000.

That is to say, he was dying from inflammation of the inner membrane of a ‘vein. Considering the cable rates, “phiebitis’’ was justifiable in this case, notwithstanding the suggestion of insecta to untrained ears. The impecunious Tord Beresford does right to insist that before he takes an American wife she shall settle money on him. Mrs. Hammersly Marlborough is wealthy as well as beautiful, and the course of true love should be made smooth when it can be dow} so easily. The confession of a woman in New York that she has been engaged in setting fire to buildings for five years, must have been a little depressing to the insyrance interest. It is to be hoped that the new woman, while determined to be no butterfly, may not turn out a frebug. With a half mile of} people waiting in the cold to get admittance to Mrs. Cleveland's latest reception, it looks as if Washington society has recovered from its alleged shock at the reception held just after the death of the Vice-President’s daughter. When Langtry and Fred Gebhard chanced to meet at Delmonico’s the other night they both blushed and said nothing. Auld acquaintance evidently had not been wholly forgotten. Sophie Lyons professes to have had con- siderable success as a promoter of matri- mony. If hearts can be stolen, Sophie is certainly capable of managing a matrimo- nial fence.

PRACTICAL DEMONSTRATION ONLY WILL CONVINCE THEM, Blood Serum Therapy in Ite Infancy— Koch's Lymph Oure-Sketch of Dr. Paquin, the New Aspirant for Medi- cal Honors. Notwithstan the results claimed, the Physicians who heard Dr. Paul Paquin’s alleged discovery of a serum cure for con- sumption presented to the Medical Society at Saturday night’s meeting, doubt its effi- cacy. They do not believe he has discovered a tuberculosis specific. Drs. Mulhall and Glasgow, whose opin- ions on this will command most respect, had not yet read Dr. Paquin’s paper when seen, but broadly passed upon his claim 2 he had discovered a cure. 1 of the doctors interviewed on the sub- ject said that they would refuse to accept he correctness of the statement until they witnessed practical demonstrations of the treatment, acompanied by the mont con- vincing results. DOUBT ITS EFFICACY. When asked to express his opinion on the alleged newly discovered cure. Dr. J. C. Mulhall said: “The subject is hardly dis- cussable as yet, for so far Dr. Paquin has presented no me greets of the 1 of his supposed c I can only make the same 2 “that I did when Dr. Koch's — came out, viz.: that in my opinion ere never 1 be found a specific for con- here mag Be a specific discov- the tubercle germ, but none y, which is in fact the root of consumption.

Glasgow he also expressed himself 2 a being extremely skeptical as to its mer- know nothing whatever about this 8 cure,” he said, as it is the first time I ever heard of the use of plain animal serum in cases of tuberculosis. The laws of serum therapy are now in their infancy, and they have not been studied suf- ficiently to foretell what may be accom- og: in the future. There is a ssi- ility that a specific may be found for con- sumption, we are all hunting for it, but so far it gh not 1 discover here have been a good any claims made in the past — 28 of this nature had been found, but they have all died out and we naturally look upon them with suspicion.

In view of the non-committal attitude of physicians in the best —.—— to condemn or indorse the alleged discovery, permission was obtained to see the patients who have been treated. The well known hopefuiness of the sufferer from consumption, and par- ticularly the patient in a city ingtitution, should probably be borne in mind in reading these reports.

I was in bed for two years, but by living in Texas I managed to be up part of the time during the last two years. I was in the Alexian Brothers Hos- vital in Chicago, where they told me I could not live over two weeks or a month. I went from there to San Antonio, 7 7 on Dr. Munger's .

I had nine in that week and five or six hemorrhages after- wards. Had three hemorrhages in hospital before this treatment began, and have had three since, though two o these were caused by over-exertion with the lung tester.“ John Smith, aged 23, said: I have been sick two years, losing strength and flésh all the time and suffering from severe hemorr- hages.

The Disease Exists in Many Parts of Minnesota. MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., Jan. 23.—A short time ago Dr. C. N. Hewitt, Secretary of the State Beard of Health, was led to gus- pect the existence of erysipelas in swine at various localities in Minnesota, the symp- toms noticed in cases of diseased animals coming under his observation resembling strongly those of erysipelas in human be- ings. Together with Dr. Reynolds, Vet- erinarian of the 228 98 School, Dr. Hewitt made post-mortem examina- tions in a number of these cases, and de- veloped cultures f the disease in his lab- oratory. Samples of the tissue the cultures were forwarded to the Bureau of Animal 8 of the D of my qulture at Was dinate, he Bureau ecided that the Dr. Hewitt’s opinion as to the nature of the disease is correct. So far as known this is the first identi@cation of this disease in the United States, al- though it is common abroad, and especially in France, where its germs were discovered by Pasteur. Recently unusual restrictions have been imposed upon the hog traffic of this State, the 1 of diseased swine having increased greatly in Minnesota and adjacent States within the past few months, hog cholera, swine plague and erysipelas being the most ** uent cases met with. The State Board o ealth has issued circulars to the nly boards and officers giving instructions as to how to guard against the spread of these dis- eases, and measures have been taken to eradicate them and prevent their further importation into the Stat te. LONELY JOHN DONOVAN. The Solitary Democrat From Michigan Makes an Explanation. CHICAGO, III., Jan. 2.—‘No, I don't find my position as the minority from the Mich- igan Legislature particularly embarrassing since the election of United States Sena- tors,“ said John Donovan, the only Demo- cratic member at Lansing, who was in Chi- cago last night. Committee work keeps me hustling: Sometimes I will have three | or four of my twelve committees in session at once, and have to go from one to the other, spending ten or fifteen minutes with each.

In the Sen- ate he had voted frequently to confirm Dem- ocratic nominations by unanimous vote. I had a high for him, and it seemed deserving that he should have the honor of a unanimous election. He is the only Senator ever elected who has enjoyed the distinction of béing named by a unanimous vote. I was the only person who stood in the way of such an event, and, after a con- sultation with Mr. Uhl, who was nominated by the Democratic y, I decided to cast my vote as I did.

B.- Bishop Samuel Fellows preached last night on The Com- ing Church.“ He said: “I hold to a firm belief of a church in the future whose candi- nal principle shall be the recognition of God. I do not say that this church, through any of its ministry, will be able to answer the question metaphorically or logically how the idea of God comes into the mind or why it should be believed. The church of the future will rest upon the Bible, an open Bi- ble in the vernacular tongue, for there is no other book that can be so easily and suc- sfully translated. The coming church wil 1 hold in every member the righN of pri- vate judgment and interpretation. Men are i to grow wise. The pew is going to ce if it is not already, as learned as the pul- pit. This church will have a creed, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with ‘all thy heart, and thy neighbor as thyself.’ It oo have a ministry—a divinely called minis as well as one called by the church. church will be flexible in its policy. It is going to have no bigot It will be church of the whole peop e. Never will it be a club of select men and women. The rich and the poor will meet together. 2 MUST USE METAL TIES, Only a Question of Time When American Railroads Will Come to It.

From All the Year Round. Whether Lilith was one of the female creations of chapter I, or a demon, or somé- thing between the two, she was, considered matrimonially, a complete failure. She was expelled after living with Adam for 130 years, and subsequently became the wife of Satan, by whom she was the mother of the Jinns, so familiar in Persian fairy lore. The emphatic remark of Adam when he first saw Eve, “This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh,“ makes, it is suggested, a comparison between Eve and the utiful but flendlike Lilith not com- plimentary to the latter, while the refer- ence on the birth of Seth, him as Adam's son, “in his own likeness, after his own image,” conveys a painful hint of the un- canny offspring born to Adam and Lilith. Perhaps in revenge for this, Lilith—the name occurs translated night monster“ in Isaiah XXIV e — — foe little children, whom wont to strangle with one of 12 glorious golden hairs, unless the — ess of their mothers drove her away It has, indeed, ‘aren vely suggested by an a ae y daring, that our lullaby is — a corruption of I. abi,“ Lilith, avaunt, which mothers and nurses would croon over the cradles or write on the doorpost.

In reply to — eat ie of fighting and my theories of ng, : would say that when time is called I generally spar about and wait for my opponent rasse 4 e my le I never my as fi places — too much disad The first round I take my time, and I come to my corner I receive advice from my „Who is my manager, as a man who. is a good second will see something that I may overlook. I believe more in a swinging blow with the left hand, as there is no chance of a man hurting it, as his opponent cannot give you his elbow s0 as to Hisable GEORGE DIXON. you. I do not believe in swinging the right, unless yout opponent is tired or you see a good opening. ag 4 favorite blow is a swing- ing left for the kidneys, as most men are weak at that point, and if you land properly the man is sure to weaken, and that will lower his hands and leave his jaw exposed, and you may be able to land the knock-out properly without danger of hurting your hands. My rushes have a tendency to worry my opponent, as he does not know when I will make them, so I change my tactics accord- ing to the way my opponent meets me. I stand at guard, my left extended and feint with my left. At the same time I draw my left foot back to my right, which increases the distance bétween my opponent and me, and my opponent thinks I am about to re- treat and will generally follow. That is the time I step in with my left foot, generally, swinging my left, and if my opponent is not steady and clever I generally land on his kidneys and follow either with a right cross counter or swinging right, and either is sure to land. Of course, the right has not the same speed as if a man led to you and you crossed him. I would prefer to land on a man’s body, especially about the kidneys or in the pit of the stomach. It does not mat- ter whether a man has his back to me or not, his kidneys are exposed. Seven-eighths of the people will laugh if they see you hit a man when his back is turned. I prefer to play for the body un- less, as I said, the jaw is exposed. pre- fer a man that will come and fight and make play, and not one who fights on the de- fensive or who runs away. I like a rusher, as I am sure to whip him quick, as I think I can outpunch any man my weight or twenty pounds heavier. The only rusher I ever met was Willis of Australia. He was my own weight, 115 pounds, and I beat him in five rounds. It took Griffo thirty rounds to whip him. It does not matter to me whether a man fights at long range or close quarters, as I feel at home in both. My best Weight at present would be 116 pounds, but it depends on the weather, as on a close day I could weigh 114 and retain my strength. I have had forty finish fights and have al- ways knocked my man out. Since I have been traveung with my com- pany I have met over 500 men in four round contests and always won, some of them quitting before the time, but I have scored 300 knockouts on the road. My method of training is: I first take a dose of medicine the first day for the bowels, the second for the kidneys: at the same time I do light walking until my flesh begins to hardén. I believe in hard work, not severe short quick work, with the best of food. The hardest fight I ever had was with Solly Smith, and he is the only one who hurt me. Griffo was the heaviest man I ever met for money, but I have met heavier ones on the stage. Griffo was fully twelve pounds heavier than I, and I built myself up nine pounds over my weight to meet him. I think he is clever. He has shown himself to be that, as he made monkeys out of every man he met before me, and some of them. Campbell and McAuliffe, were supposed to be very clever. I do not think he has any effective blow, as he is not a puncher, but keeps rushing the left palm of his hand over your mouth, which is nothing but heeling and &gainst the rules. He knows all the dirty tricks of the ring, such as backheel- ing, which is only allowed in London rules, and his elbow is quite a factor in a fight for him. The referee called him down eight times for committing deliberate fouls. The only fair referee I ever saw was Mr. Vise of the National Sporting Club of London, who knew the rules ar? lived up to them. He would have disqualified Griffo on his second attempt to backheel me, as Wallace at- tempted the same thing and was told the next attempt he would have to leave the I am not writing this as an excuse, as I believe the next chance I have at Griffo, if toa finish, I will whip him. I never feel nervous going into a fight. I always feel confident, and know that if 1 keep cool I will not lose so quick, as excite- ment makes a man breathe fast and tires him quick. One fight is the same as another to me. GEORGE E. DIXON. JAMES J. CORBETT. The Champion Talks of His Fight With Fitzsimmons and Prize Fighting. ST. PAUL, Minn., Jan. 28.—Champion James J. Corbett, who appeared here last night Wth his company, after expressing the certainty of his feeling that the fight with Fitzsimmons should come off in Flori- da, in answer to the question whether he would go out of the country to fight said: “Now, why should I do that?

Fowle of Cincinnati, repre- senting the Oakley race track, is in the city booming this season’s meeting at the course. When he first came here Mr. Fowle persudded Walsh and Cella to enter their crack handicap horse, Simmons, in several of the all-aged events at Oakley. Appa- rently the entry has been accepted, much to the surprise of all who are acquainted with the fact that the Hawthorne, Har- lem and Latonia race tracks threw Sim- mons’ entry out of their stakes on ac- count of his supposed owners’ connection with the outlawed Madison race track. When asked whether the Oakley track would refuse the Simmons’ entry, Mr. Fowle said: “Our directors have not yet decided to take such action and I am inclined to think that if they intended to it would have happened before now course, I am not authorized to talk for the Oakley track managers, but I do know that Simmons is going to be a great drawing card this sea- son, and the tracks which refuse to accept his entry will not increase their gate re- ceipts by such action. I may be mistaken, but I think he will be allowed to run in the Oakley stake events.“ + * 2 The many local friends of Clem Creveling, the St. Louis boy, who is without doubt the greatést all-round racing official on the American turf, are wondering why the Fair Association management does not give him a chance with the starter’s flag this season. Creveling is the presiding judge at Roby, Chicago's Guttenburg, and he also officiates in the same capacity regularly at Kansas City. On the Western trotting circuit he is the king starting judge, officiating at the Terre ute, Indianapolis and Washington Park meetings. As a running horse starter Creveling secured his first experience at the South Side Park meeting three years ago. Afterwards he handled the flag at the Fair Grounds and he is one of the few starters that ever gave satisfaction at the big local track. Creveling starts at Hot Springs, commencing next month, and if his work is satisfactory the Fair Association should give him a trial, in case it is impossible to get either 138 or Rowe. Creveling is a big gun in Chicago trotting and running horse circles, but somehow he is not appre- ciated at home. f E * The most casual student of the stud book during the past twenty years is familiar with the name of Alarm, the stallion which died at Bashford Manor the other day.

It is through his daugh- ters, however, that his greatest fame comes, the Alarm mares already ranking with those of Lexington, War Dance and Glencoe. He was the grandsire of the unbeaten Tremont, Domino, Tournament, Sallie McClelland, Sleipner, Wadsworth, Selika, Ignite, Azra, Loudon, Roche and hundreds of others of fame on the turf. He was the first horse to run a mile in 1:42%, which he did at Sara- toga, and on the imperfect tracks of the old days ran three-quarters in 1:16. He met and beat the best horses of his age. The marked family traits of his get are extreme speed and unflagging courage. acers which will com- te at the winter ice meeting in Canada ga horse witha history. His name is Lit- tle Pitt, and, strange to say, he is near! thoroughbred, as he * Lapidest Chief, thoroughbred, out of a half-bred mare by Gra agile. He ts 8 years old and was used in a butcher’s cart in Montreal, Can- ada, till last spring, when W. S. Brown of that city bought him. Last year he started in eighteen races, won eight, was second three times and third twice, and finished the season with a record of 2:13%,. Track Talk. Dave Gideon has arrived at San Fran- cisco. Alix, 2:03%, the champion trotting mare, won $10,500 in purses last year, while Diree- tum, 2:064%, the champion trotting stallion, won $11,500, Of the pacers that entered the 2:20 list dur- ing 1894, forty-six were bred in Maury County, Tenn. Of that number, twenty-six went in 2:15 or better and five in 2:10 or better. The Tennesseeans think there is no county in the unlom that can show so good a record of extreme speed.

Olympic Cycling and Athletic Club Will Enter the Field. A new bicycle and athletic club is now be- ing formed by several well-known wheel- men, who were formerly connected with the popular Victor Cycling Club. pro- moters are as follows: Messrs. Bridge brothers, Saupe, Heuer, Hyman, Hawks- ley, Stork, Dyson, Williams and others. r. Dyson, who is well versed in club mat- ters, and who held offices in the Victor Cy- cling Club in the capacities of Captain, sec- retary and vice-president, is busy arranging the constitution and by-laws. The main features of the new club will be to connect cycling with athletics, to encourage and fos- ter both sports, and to encourage harmony and sociability. The membership will be limited to fifty, and no one will be eligible who is under years of age. It will be called the Olympic Cycling and Athletic Club,and will be incorporated under the State laws. Information regarding membership, dues, etc., can be had by ad- dressing E. T. Bridge, 118 Olive street, or George E. Dyson, care Meyer Bros. Drug 0. WILL TRAIN IN DIXIE. Sanger, Titusand Cabanne to Get Into Shape in Alabama. Sanger, Titus and Cabanne will go South for their preliminary spring practice. Train- er Dave Shafer will take the trio to Bir- mingham, Ala., about April 1. There is a fine horse track there with a rough surface and nice climate; and he will put the boys through a course of training for strength. From there . will go to Louisville to try the fine three-lap 11 cement surface. It is a good one, and he hinks by that time the boys will have a pretty good amount of speed. From Louisville the team will go to Springfield, and on that fine track they will re on finishing touches for the season and open up about May 1, and from there on follow the circuit. ” * team is composed of three world’s recor holders. Sanger holds the one-mile un- paced world’s record, Cabanne the one- * mile record and Titus the one-hour reco The Wisconsin division of the League of American Wheelmen intends to increase its territory if possible,as appears by an amend- ment to the constitution of the L. A. W. which will be introduced into the national Secretary and Treasurer M. . ; e amendment is as follows: Add to Art. 2, sec. I. as now in force, the following ph, to-wit: “Fifth—For the purpose of this section the State of Wisconsin shall be considerea as 7 that portion of the State of Michigan adjoining said State on the north, and bounded on the north and east by Lakes Superior and Michigan, and such territory shall not be considered as a part of the State of Michigan.” Howard E. Raymond, having been asked if John Johnson, the class B wheelman, is an amateur, promptly replied: Mr. John S. Johnson is a duly q amateur, in accordance with the amateur rules of class B of the L. A. W. Mr. Johnson's status is clearly defined in said rules, which are open to the inspection of any association.“ And yet Johnson, Sanger and all the brood of class B wheelmen sell their prizes openly, and have announced their de to run for cash prizes. If they are amateurs accord- ing to the L. A. W. standard, it cannot be denied that the standard of that organiza- tion is very low. P 8 A report coming from Boston states that notwithstanding all that has been said re- garding the proposed is of Robert Bruce to head a search party in the interests of the missing Pittsburg: cyclist, Frank Len it will not be undertaken. The excuse o the parties who contracted with him for the expedition for backing out is that they did not consider it justifiable to send the young man, who is a venturesome fellow, — oy long trip against the wishes of his amily. TRAP SHOOTERS ORGANIZE, A Much-Needed National Association at Last Perfected. A meeting of the representatives of trap shooters’ associations, from all parts of the United States, was held in New York last week for the purpose of forming a national association. here were many clubs that were unable to send delegates, but sent let- ters instead se the action of the convention, whatever it might be. Maj. B. H. Brientrall of the South Side Gun Club of Newark, N. J. presided over the meet- ing, and W. R. Hobart of the same club acted as temporary secretary. It was unanimously decided that a permanent national association should be formed, and a committee of five was appointed to pre- sent a plan for such organization, and also to draft a constitution to be presented at the next meeting, to be held April 3.
