JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., Jan. 30.—Repre- sentative Buckner’s address in favor of his telephone bill, although. strong and logi- cal, fell flat in the House Committee on Private Corporatiofis. A special order had been made for the consideration of of Buck- ner’s bill, and Col. W. H. Phelps had prom- ised that Manager George F. Durant would be here. John H. Carroll was on the ground, as were Phelps and Flanagan, but not a word did any of them have to say in reply to Buckner nor the: committee give the slightest intimation that they would do anything for the promotion of this line of legislation.

Three questions were asked of them, | however; and there was no material differ- ence in any of the answers. To the question whether a further bond issue on the basis of the last two, in default of other action by C sary, the unanimous answer was that al- thoygh the general policy of such loans wag incredibly foolish and ultimately ruinous, no other coufse would be open to the Pres- ident if tue gold reserve was much further depleted.

Twenty pebdple of those who were on board of her have been landed here by fishing smacks. The persons saved in clude the second of- ficer and the pilot. It is feared that the loss ot life is great. Great crowds throng the streets about ‘the Lloyd Steamship Agency in London, anxiously awaiting further news of the dis- aster. But if the agents have further particulars they have not made them public. Only the announcement of the loss of the ship and the number of passengers sup- posed to have perished have so far been bulletined. The ship was commanded by Capt. K. Von Goessel. The Elbe left New Tork for Southampton and Bremen on Jan. 15, and was on her re- turn trip to this country, having left re- men yesterday. She was due at Southamp- ton to-day, so that the accident must have happened in the vicinity of that port. The steamship is one of the slower ones of the North German Lloyd Line, but was al- ways considered to be a very comfortable and perfectly seaworthy vessel. At the office of the agency in this city, in the Rialto Building, no news of the disaster had been received. It was not known wheth- er any St. Louisans were aboard the iill- fated steamship. The Elbe was built in 1881 at Fairfield by the E. & S. B. Fairfield Co. She is 418 feet long, 4 wide and 35 deep, with a gross tonage of 4,510. Her engines had an indi- cated horsepower of 5, 600.

This was the first real test vote on the rail- road question, and the grand stand per- formers on both sides showed their coward- ice in the usuai fashion. Even Acting- r dodged. After the vote was announced Drabelle said he did not un- derstand the vote and switched, but the clerk called his name twice and he did not even look up. There were more than twenty ayes of- fered pentane the announcement of the gy he final vote to print was 100 ayes, 19 nays. - SCHOOL TEACHERS’ PENSIONS. Representative Davidson made a vigorous attack on the St. Louis School Board teach- ers’ pension measure for no other reason apparently than to demonstrate his enmity for Mr. Drabelle, its author. The bill was vigorusly defended by Messrs. Drabelle and Avery, who very emphatically denied Davidson's charge that this bill was but the forerunner of a demand for an ap- propriation. Mr. Avery declared that a charge was an unwarranted assumption of the absolute ignorance of the succeeding Legislature. The issue between the fr:énds and oppo- nents of the measure was whether con- tributions of the teachers to the fund were to be voluntary or otherwise. Dr. Tubbs held that they were compulsory. Moran informed him that the ruling of the courts had invariably been that where the word ‘“‘shall’’ occurs in a statute af- fecting the rights of third parties it is al- ways to be construed “ma Mr. Spencer declared that. the bill did not contemplate the tate Treasury. of a single ad — Reel State that a sum not simp exceeding f Le: per . of the Salaries of the teachers be as a pension fund. There was no get Poa whatever from St. Louis or among the St. Louis members to this. measure.

The plaintiff's party left the Four Courts first with the the defendant’s clan right at their heels, and then came the trouble. Mrs. Cuddy made @ rush for Mrs. Barnes and tried to strike her, but Al Froehly and Mr. Hobein held her back, and they walked down to the City Hall. The fair. corespon- dent here stop the others and drew off her stylish puffed-sleeved jacket and threw it on the ground, striking an extremely pu- gilistic attitude. She put up her fists and dared Mrs. Barnes to toe the acratch at the same time calling her all manner of names. The scene was highly interesting to the spectators, but an extremely trying one to Mrs: Barnes. Her friends shielded her and beat a retreat toward the car. Mrs. Cuddy kept in her wake and called out challenge after challenge, interspersed with oppro- brious names and a few words that do not look well on paper. The plaintiffs’ party finally succeeded in escaping the irate co-respondent and got on a car for North St. Louis. MRS. BARNES’ STATEMERT. To a reporter Mrs. Barnes said that her life would have been in danger had not her brother kept Mrs. Cuddy away. “My mother-in-law tried to hold me,“ she said, “for this woman to beat me. Mrs. Cuddy was cursing and swearing and call- ing me all kind of names that I would not repeat. I left my husband last July and this woman went to live with him and shortly afterward was arrested and fined $500 for beating her.

An unknown man was run over and killed by a train in the upper bridge yards in East St. Louis last night or early this morning. The body was found by switchmen about 9 a. m., and was removed to Bennet’s morgue, on Collinaville avenue. The head was com- pletely severed and, strangely enough, the bady was not otherwise bruised or mutilated in the least, which gives the case a very mysterious phase, as it is a matter of con- jecture whether it was one of murder, sul- cide or accident: ; The body was that of a man apparently between 40 and 50 years of age, heavy set and weighing about 180 pounds. It —— warmly clad in clothes of very good. m rial. The clothing consisted of a thick g mat suit, black 1 — hat and hea underwear.

Even Sir Samuel Montagu, the . metaHism in Parliament, was not lesa. ¢ omer: ‘Pate. 4 skimmed through the ost of the een d Sir Samuel, and therefore 1 do not Eke to venture a decided opinion: upon it in all its bearings. In my views, America could supply all her wants any time she chooses in England—in which case stock should be inscribed—or a 31-4 gold loan in America. In the latter event invest- ors here would subscribe for stock largely and America would, of course, get gold in payment for it.“ What do you think would be the effect. of payment in silver?“ J consider,“ he said, that it would be the greatest folly tmaginable.”’ At this point Sir Samuel's partner, who was sitting at another desk, interjected the observation: “I was asking Goschen what he thought would be the result tf it were proposed to pay in silver, and he said that if America did that she would not be able to pay the first instalment falling due on the first mortgages on her railway stock.“ Mr. Goschen is head of the house of Fruhl- ing & Goschen, and brothé of the ex- Chan- cellor of the Exchequer. am a bi-metallist,” continued Sir Sam- uel; but, as I have said, a resort to a loan payable in silver would be madness. The only condition under which it should be feasible would be under an international agreement with the. principal European countries. Otherwise, if America adopted the silver standard singly, other countries would pour all their silver into her, and she would be swamped in a very short time. That would be ruin to American credit and trade. A gold loan under the conditions I have mentioned would be the best way of dealing with the situation.” John Baring of Baring Bros. said: There is really comparatively little inter- est in the question here, because speculation in American securities has become ally nil. Owing to the later tendencies American national finance, has been turned into other channels—into South African and South American investments mainly. nt “But have not, financiers here foomed the ties . an ae a py pgp Pa — — n as in * 1 1 a A.

I cannot believe the Government will allow its credit to be jeopardized, but will take prompt action to prevent European investors from hasty action in sacrificing their American investments. It must be that European capital was a most important if not indispensabié factor in developing the enterprises of the United States. As matters are, that capital now refuses to risk further investment.

Cleveland Means to Act Without the Co- Operation of Congress. WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 30.—The tem- per of the silver men in the Senate and the defiant attitude of the silver men in the Finance Committee offer an almost insur- mountable bar to any legislation between now and March 4. Unless there is a decided change in the situation—and under the cir- cumstances this is aks to eo Congress will probably ourn out en- aqtins any law giving the Secretary vi the Treasury needed authority to main- tain the Government credit, But the President is prepared to act, act speedily, unless he receives some - gible assurance that his appeal for aid will not be in vain. If his suggestions are not accepted and the raid on the Treasury gold continues, a loan of $100,000,000 at 4 per cent, to run thirty years, probably will be author- ized. Mr. Cleveland is determined not to issue any more bonds on a ten-year basis. Before the close of this week it is not un- likely that Mr. Cleveland will make known his intentions as to maintaining the reserve. Under the act of July 14, 1870, it is within the power of the Secretary of the Treasury not only to issue ten-year 5 per cent bonds such as has been floated, but also to nego- tiate bonds payable at the pleasure of the Government after fifteen years from the date of their issue, bearing interest at 4% per cent, and also bonds running thirty years, bearing 4 per cent. There is no doubt that the President has been seriously con- sidering the propriety of issuing these thirty year 4 per cent bonds in the event of Con- failing to respond to his demands. gress It is the understanding that Secretary Car- lisle has received offers to take $100,000,000 of these bonds, and if Congress does not respond a loan of this character and of this amount will be floated. Mr. Cleveland in his message indicated very clearly that he would take this course. He intimated very strongly that there was doubt in his mind as to whether bonds such as were is- sued for the last two loans could be sold to advantage. Such a policy on the part of the President is being rapidly forced by the continued drain at New York and Boston. The with- drawals yesterday aggregated $3,149,000, re- ducing the reserve to $48,616,193. Of the amount taken out, $3,066,000 was demanded at New York. It comes from trustworthy authority that Mr. Cleveland has made up his mind that the reserve cannot be allowed with safety to fall below $40,000,000. As soon as the balance approaches this danger point, ther is every reason to believe that proposals for $100,000,000 of thirty-year 4 per cent bonds „uin be issued. If the advices from New York as to the probable export of gold on Gaturdey next are confirmed, such a bond issue is almost certain té be decided upon within the next week. With the President entertaining these convictions there is little likelihood e the Government being forced susgension of specie payments under his adminis:ration. Such a bond issue as Mr. Cleveland has in mind can be averted only by prompt ac- tion by Congress. The harmony displayed at to-day’s meeting of the House Banking Committee offers some slight encourage- ment that the lower branch at least will not pProve unresponsive to his appeals. Every- thing depends on the effort to unite the Republicans and the anti-silver Democrats, If the action of the Republican members of the committee is any criterion as to what _ attitude the Republicans will take as a party, there is good reasons to expect that a n can be arranged. If the anti-silver Democrats can muster anywhere ed in the re- by the House. he Banking Committee is working along non-partisan lines in the hope that something will come of their efforts.

Herman Moack, who lives at 6023 Lorretta avenue, created quite a laughable scene in Judge Morris“ court Tuesday afternoon at @ late hour.

Thie office was created by an act passed by the Thirty-seventh General Assembly, and has now been in operation about eighteen months: The report herewith transmitted is for the year ending July 3, 1894. It shows that the total tax, both State and municipal, collected during the year reported, amounted to $1,229,668.91. Of this the city license tax amounted to $1,011,868.40. During the previous corresponding year the city license tax imposed on dramshops colletced amounted to $361,105.35. Thus it will be seen that under the administration of Excise Commissioner Bell the sum of $150,763.05 more city license taxes were collected than were collected on that account the previous year. This result is all the more gratifying in view of the fact that it was not occasioned by an increase in the number of saloons: but, on the contrary, the Commissioner re- ports a very decided decrease in the number of saloons over those running the year be- fore. He states that during the year he “closed up about 300 saloons for non-pay- ment of licenses and for keeping disorderly places.“ An increase of $150,763 in revenue, with a decrease in the number of sa- loons, is conclusive proof that the act creat- ing the office of Excise Commissioner was wise and timely, and the result is highly creditable to the administration of the Com- missioner. A comparison of the amount of State license taxes collected during the two years referred to is not made because in 1893 the Legislature passed a law increasing the State license tax above what it was the year before. While it is true that the State has been equally as much benefited as the city by the excise law and its administra- tion, the increase in the State license tax referred to makes a comparison between the collections of the two years more difficult. The city license tax was the same both years. Although not required by the law to for- ward this report to the General Assembly, I do so nonetheless in the lief that it con- tains information of value/to your hofiorable body. WM. J.

Judge Dillon Hears the Quo War- ranto Proceedings. The quo warranto proceedings in the case of the State for the use of David J. Collins, a master plumber and a tax-payer, against Theodore D. Kalbfell occupied the attention of Judge Dillon at the opening of court. Kalbfell was cited to appear and show by what authority he claims to hold the office of Supervisor of Plumbing for the city of St. Louis. Kalbfell was appointed by the President of the Board of Public Im- provements on Nov. 28, 1894. The appoint- ment was attacked on the ground that Kalbfell was in arrears of taxes for 1894, when the appointment was made and that he was not qualified by training and expe- — to design and execute plumbing wor When. depositions were About to be taken Commissioner C. Claflin Allen sent the mat- ter back into court on the ground that the p should have been brought in the name of the Attorney General. The At- torney General afterwards entered his ap- ce, Counselor Marshall's contention is that the charter provision that no appoint- ive officer of the city of St. Louis shall be in arrears for taxes, 7 that no taxes assessed against su intee shall be due. He drew a parallel between rent n arrears and taxes in arrears. Rent not yet actionable can be sued for by attachment when the tenant is about to leave the State, but no judgment can be obtained until the rent. is due just as in the case of a note. Leverett U representing the Master Plumbers, held that taxes were in arrears when a tax bill had been rendered and not Judge Dillon admitted Kalbfell’s testimony on the point, subject to objection. Kalbfell said he paid his tax bill for 1894 the day after he was summoned to court in this cause. He testified that he entered the plumbing busin on Aug. 1, 1892. Mr. Bell tried to show that Kalbfell was simply a business officer of his company. Kalbfell mentioned one or two instances in which he had done ractical plumbing work. Kalbfell said he cna not been educated as a plumber. He produced a certificate from the former Supervisor of Plumbing, Hennessey, show- ing that he had executed a bond for the protection of the public from injury by rea- son of plumbing done by him. A wrangle ensued over a detailed examination of Kalbfell as to his qualifications. J Di questions, but said could | bunch of lilies to STUDER’S ELOPEMENT. Mr. Louis Mette Glad His Daughter Is Single.

All the funeral arrangements have been completed. The services will commence promptly at 2:30 at the Southern Hotel. Dr. John Snyder, who was a warm personal friend of the deceased, will officiate. The Elks, who have all the arrangements in charge, will meet at their lodge-rooms promptly at 1:45 p. m. At that hour, headed by a brass band of about 100 pleces, they will march from their rooms in the Hagan Building, across Tenth street to Olive, east on Olive to Broadway, thence south to the Southern. The band is composed of members of the Musicians’ Mutual Benefit Association, the different theater orchestras in the city and twelve members of Primrose & West's band. During the services in the hotel the band will occupy a position in the rotunda. THE SERVICES. The services will commence with the sing- ing of a hymn by a quartet from the Pauline Hall Opera company. Dr. Snyder will then read a passage of Scripture and follow with a few appropriate remarks.

The body will then be conveyed to the hearse, during which time the band down stairs will play an appropriate selection. The cortege will then take up its march, headed by the band to Broadway and Wash street, where the Dand will disperse and the procession will proceed to Bellefontaine Cemetery, where the interment will be made. The services at the grave will be according to the Elks ritual. A special detail of police will be stationed along Broadway while the funeral procession is passi ng. TELEGRAMS OF CONDOLENCE.

They Refuse to Return to Work, as Ordered. eee The strike at the Tudor Iron Works in East St. Louis, which resulted from an at- tempt made two weeks ago to replace the boss rollers, who had been earning about $16 a day, with machinists paid $3.50 a day, has assumed a critical phase on account of a notice issued by General Manager William Hanpeter. The notice was to the effect that employes must report for duty at 12 o’clock to-day, and that those who failed do so would be discharged. The strikers, who are all members of the Amalgamated Association, held a meeting and decided not report for duty until the boss rollers were reinstated. When Manager Hanpeter heard of the strikers’ action he stated that the management would make no concessions — whatever and that as soon as the plant was in readiness it would be put in operation. A week’s time would be required to complete the repairs now in progress, he said, and then he would start up to have private assurances from a number e mill. He claimed the strikers that they would be ready to place. Ald- that none of said the steel . JOHN WELCH IS DYING. He has Been Indicted in Connection With Recent Election Frauds.

The Aesculapian Society is a Greek-letter se fraternity. Mr. Boarman is presi- dent of Alpha Chapter. The society was green rganized in Kansas City four years ago. now numbers 1,000 associate and active members, having chapters in Omaha, Kan- sas City and St. Joseph. Medical students and professors are active members; prac- tie physicians are associate members. Alle ters are designated by Greek letters. — md students of any reputable medical sc can organize a chapter by communicating with the chapter nearest to the school. No chapter can be organizei without the consent of the other chapters. The object of the society is to encourage a er grade of scholarship, to promote a dly association of its members, to ren- der more efficient service for the college in which the ch is organized, to bind the members of the different chapters of the Aesculapian — * more closely together for mutual aid and assistance after leaving the college.

Prof. Anderson of the Thomas Or- chestra Makes a Dramatic Exit. oe — wae ’ CHICAGO, mi., Jan. 50. Prot. Anderson, one of the finest flutists ih the world and a prominent member of Theodore Thomas’ orchestra, made a dramatic ending to his somewhat eventful life last night. He called. together practically all his friends and gave them a musical entertainment. Then he shot himself through the head, The suicide occurred at 47 Elm street, where Mr. Anderson was Iiving. One of the invited guests was Miss Frances Streigel. Anderson killed himself virtually at her feet. Many of his acugaintances declare Anderson was the fiance of Miss Streigel, but her friends deny this. Many motives are assigned for the deed. The true one seems to have been a desire to make a dramatic exit after a combina- tion of marital troubles. Mr. Anderson was 48 years old..

IN THE WILD WEST. One Arizona Citizen Effectually Obstructs a Railroad. SOLOMONVILLE, Ariz., Jan. 30.—H. Sul- livan owns land over which the Gila Val- ley, Globe and Northern built its railroad track last summer—built it, aceording to Sullivan, permission. On Sunday he erected a frame building. surrounded by a wire fence. He moved his family into the structure, and the next train was obliged to halt. When Wm. Garland, president of the rail- way company, who was on the train, at- tempted to remove the wire fence, Sullivan levelled a shot gun at the president; warn- ing him to keep hands o advice which Garland promptly followed.

IN FAVOR OF JUDGE LONG. Judge Bradley Grants the Mandamus Against Commissioner Lochren. WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. ®—Judge Bradley of the District Supreme Court yes- terday granted the mandamus asked for by Judge Charles D. Long of Michigan to com- pel Commissioner Lochren of the Pension Bureau to restore the former rating of $72 per month to the plaintiff. The mandamus asked against Secretary Smith asked for by Judge Long was denied as unnecessary. Three questions were involved in the case, whether Commissioner Tanner was justified in issuing the certificate giving Judge Long a $72 a month rating; whether the Commie- sioner of Pensions is empowered to review and reverse the action of his predecessor upon the same state of facts, for alleged error in judgment, to change the status of the relator on the pension rolls and to re- voke his pension certificates, and whether the Court has power by mandamus to direct the Commissioner to vacate his order of revocation. Discussing the functions of the Commis- sioner of Pensions, Judge Bradley laid down the proposition that the Commissioner is neither the Government nor Congress, and cannot give or withhold pensions at his pleasure.

But the apparent impossibility of checking the drain on the gold reserve at a point which the Administration re- gards as safe makes another bond issue inevitable. The reserve is now reduced to $48,000,000, and it is certain that a fresh loan will be made. Under the old redemption law the Gov- ernment has obtained within less than a year $117,000,000 of gold, every dollar of which has been lost. It is again at the mercy of the bankers who have victim- ized it in two bond issues. The inaction of Congress will force the Government into a most humiliating strait. It will be compelled to beg a loan of our own or of foreign bankers under conditions which render it helpless to withstand their exactions and prevent their profit- ing by sharp practices. The question is simply whether being forced to borrow money it shall be borrowed under the best or the worst conditions, whether the Government shall be victimized by sharpers or helped by the people. There is an abundance of idle gold in the coun- try which will be placed at the disposal ‘of the Government if the Secretary of the Treasury is permitted to issue the bonds suggested by the President. The refusal of Congress to permit the Administration to take so sensible a business measure until the crisis is tided over would be an act of supreme folly. —, — AN ABSURD MEASURE. One of the enthusiastic advocates of the law forbidding the playing of base ball on Sunday, passed by the lower house of the State Legislature, said that the Cities are “largely hot-beds of iniquity and cesspools of immorality.” It would be interesting to have this member explain how iniquity and im- morality are to be reduced in cities by cutting off the urban youth from all in- nocent amusement on Sunday, the one free day of the week. Base ball is a harmless sport. It affords healthful exercise and amusement. The only day upon which the youths and young men of thecity can engage in out of door sports is Sunday. If they are cut off from base ball and other innocent games on that day they will seek entertainment in more demoralizing ways. The back door of the den is always open. Places of ren- dezvous will be found where lessons of iniquity will be inculcated. Do the representatives who voted for this measure believe that a jury can be found who will inflict a fine of $50 on boys and young men confined all the week at work for engaging in a game of base bal] on Sunday? Do they believe that if such a law should be enforced it would help the morals of the youth of either the city or country? ° The law is not in the interest of good morals and cannot be enforced. It would only make the Sunday laws a little more absurd than they are and in so far tend to bring all laws into discredit. The present Sunday law is a practical dead letter and supplies a nucleus for a law- breaking combination in cities. The Senate should promptly check this attempt to revive the blue laws and to promote real iniquity at the expense of both the physical and moral health of the youth. ae 88181811 A HOPEFUL VIEW. The uncertainty of congressional action to relieve the financial straits of the Gov- ernment renders the question of conse- quences of paramount importance. The press is filled with gloomy predictions of | f disaster should the Government be un- able 40 maintain the gold reserve at a safe point and meet all of its obligations with gold payments. It is the part of wisdom to face the possible crisis frankly and bravely. There is more danger of panic from sense- less fear than actual financial and com- mercial conditions. It is gratifying in view of the possibilities to find a “leading banker,“ supposed to be no less an authority than J. Pierrepont Morgan, who is a strong advocate of the gold redemp- tion policy, taking a sensible and hopeful view of the situation. He says: 1 do not look for any serious disturbance eoincident with our finaing ourselves upon a silver basis. There is too much money ac- cumulated and too little use for it. The. effect of our being upon a silver basis would be only gradually manifested, and would take the shape of a steadily depreciating currency; that is to say, our currency would gradually recede until it represented the price of silver. Necessarily as its purchas- ing power decreases in the direction I have stated, silver ought to advance in price, and it would not surprise me if the price of sil- ver and the value of the currency met each other half way. I think that this will be ac- mplished without any premium being es- ate ne : es no danger of any kind.

PATERNALISM. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch, It seems that a bill has passed both Houses of Congress to indorse the bonds of a corporation to build or dig the Nicara- gua Canal. This is pure paternalism of the most objectionabie character. One would think we experience enough of this char- acter in the Union Pacific Railroad, with its credit mobilier rascality and its con- stant and persiatent defalcation in the pay- ment of interest on its bonds. All such transactions are wrong in every articular. They are unbusinesslike and ead directly to corruption and pay a premium on rascality. The policy of aiding in the construction of the canal should be on business principles. That is, if the United States puts in any money it should be as a sub- scription to the stock and the cash shauild be paid therefor as the work progresses, and when the work is done the — ＋ of the United States will own the stock sub- d pai will, in all atock, y, the hen the United States would have the power to control and manage the conc through the Board of Directors chosen b the stockholders. Why cannot our Congress learn to do business in a business-like manner? Sup- pose the n proposing to build the canal should go to a large capitalist for aid, what would be his terms? Would he ndorse the bonds of the concern and allow the stock to be taken and controlled by a gang of irresponsible adventurers? It ig a shame that the American people cannot be protected in all such financial trans- actions. A BUSINESS MAN. OUR BENEDICT ARNOLDS. To the Editor of the Post-Digpatch.

A PETITION FROM THE GARTEN SCHOOL. Col. Sim Price Represents. the Railroad Interests at Jefferson-Arguments Before the Committee Mothers of Little Ones Interested in the Crusade, JEFFERSON CITY, Jan. &.—Before the House Committee on Private Corporations last night Representative Johnston of St. Louis County and Sim T. Price of St. Louis, representing the street railroad interests. argued for and against the Johnston street car fender bill. At the start the chairman, Stickney, wanted to limit Mr. Johnston in his presentation, but finally allowed him to proceed without Umitation. Mr. Johnston urged the public necessity for the passage of such a measure, and stated that appeals for such ani act are coming to him from all parts of the State—from almost every town, in fact, where a cable or an electric car is operated. He cited che beneficial operation of fenders on the Southern Street Railway in St. Louis and declared that this was a question in which the entire State was in- terested, and that the Missouri Legislature could not afford to leave it entirely to the City- Council and House of Delegates of St. Louis, which, he assured the committee, did not ser act for the best interests of the people. He called attention to that clause in the bill that provides that if any company shall neglect or refuse to provide fenders, and any accident occurs, that company shall not be permitted to take advantage of any contributory negligence that may be shown, but shall be held as having been entirely to Ame. Mr. Price, in reply, cited article 10 of the city charter of St. Louis, as conferring full power upon the city to legislate in this matter, and he begged that the uri Legislature leave the determination of the kind of device to be used to the city of St. Louis, through ita Board of Public Improve- ts. men HEIGHT OF FENDERS. He declared that the present bill stipu- lated no height at which the fenders must be carried, and that in leaving the question whether a fender was in a given c car- ried at the proper height to the trial jury, the attorne ringing the damage suit could stake his case on the height of the fender, and by claiming that if it had been a half inch igher or lower the accident could not have happened, he could throw all the burden of responsibility upen the com- pany. Mr. Price was asked whether he would be willing to fix a height and allow that to go into the bill; and he replied in the nega- tive, assigning as the reason that the height must vary according to the quality of re ments over which the cars must run. He as- | sured the committee that all lines of street railway that penetrated the county also ran within | the city limits, and that the city had full conrol over them. Mr. Atkins asked whether Mr. Price claimed that the State had no power to regulate such matters, and he replied that it had full power, but, having conferred such fights u the city, it would be better ta let the city exercise it. As to the right ot other municipal corpora- tions in the State, Mr. Price gave it as his opinion that all such corporations, down to third-class cities, had the right to regu- late such matters. As to the legal proposi- tion involved in the clause that proposed to deprive the street railroad companies of the right to plead contributory negligence and leave that right unimpaired with all other corporations, he held that that would be a discrimination, which, tn his opinion, the courts would never sanction, In answer to an assertion of Mr. Price, that this was the Post-Dispatch fender bill, Mr. Johnston stated that it was not the Post-Dispatch’s measure, but that he had conceived a notion of framing such a bill by watching the cars of the South Sixth Street Line in St. Louis. The committee did not give formal notice of its intention respecting the bill, but Chairman Stickney and other members mani- fested their sympathy with it by the inter- rogatories they put, and when Mr. Johnston left the room he stated that it was his firm conviction that the committee would report the measure favorably. The fender petitions, circulated by the Post-Dispatch, in favor of making the plac- ing of guards or fenders on all cable and electric cars in this city, are filling up with amazing rapidity: Everyone readily recog- nizes the necessity for the reform and is anxious to testify by affixing their signa- tures to the petitions to their full apprecia- tion of the sterling worth of the movement. When comple the petition promises to be the largest of its kind ever circulated in this city. It can be safely said, without fear of contradiction, that it will be signed by every thinking man and woman in the community. Parents, and particularly mothers of small children, are more than anxious to see these safeguards placed on the cars. So common have frightful street car accidents become that many know by bitter experience what it is to have a loved one, relative or friend, injured or perhaps maimed in this manner. Still others have witnessed such accidents and can readily realize what a blessing some device will be which will prevent this cruel and useless slaughter. — KINDERGARTEN PETITION, An instance of the widespread interest taken in this subject can be seen in a peti- tion recently circulated in the mothers’ class of the Isabella Crow Kin en Asocia- tee este pencer, 4457 a Atoms, . n 4166 —— Pine street . 0. .

Spurious Silver Dollars Unloaded on the Banks of Omaha. OMAHA, Neb., Jan. 30.—During the last ten days Omaha has been flooded with a quantity of new counterfeit silver dollars, so good that they have passed without much difficulty. A number of them came into the banks every day, brought by depositors, al- though a few have been presented by strangers. Bank clerks say that they are the best imitation they have ever met with. The counterfeit appears to be made of an alloy, and contains glass, as the ring, al- though sharper than that of the genuine, is very true and is readily accepted as such. The best of the coins are coated with silver, although they retain a soapy, greasy ap- ce. The face and back cannot be de- ected from those of a genuine coin. The milling is also very good, but as is the case with all counterfeits, the edges are not sharp. The dates are various, but the greater num have the date of 1891. This 1891 dollar is the best of the counterfeits, being the one that is coated with silver and, to an or- dinary observer, exactly like the unine. The weight is almost correct, more so in some than in others, but still a little lighter than the genuine. EXPECT A SPECIAL LETTER. It Is Thought the Pope Will Write More - §pecifically About Mgr. Satolli. WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.—It is the opinion of high Catholic ecclesiastica that the Pope’s encyclical will be followed at no distant date by a supplemental letter specifically dealing with the American delegation. This is based on the fact that thé encyclicals generally deal with matters of general in- terest to the church, so that the functions of the American delegate would more prop- erly be made in a special letter. Although in the encyclical, it was not such attention to the details of Mgr. Satolli’s mission as had been anticipated, and is for this reason * a supplemental letter is thought to be ely. A report has been current of late that Mgr. Satolli would go to Rome before long. But it is stated by those in a position to know that the delegate has no such inten- tion at the present time. It is believed, how- ever, that Cardinal Gibbons will make the visit to Rome which was deferred some weeks ago. SENATOR FAIR’S WILL. Complications Which May Arise Through the Theft of the Document.

Davis, who was employed by Private Detective Stillwell to examine the document, with a view, as he claims, to making a comparison between the original and the printed ver- sions of it. The fact that the will has not been pro- , and is not admitted to be the last will of the dead millionaire by the various legatees, will make the case more compli- cated. It is also claimed that there are some | things about the Original will that need close investigation, and that for this copies will not answer. TWO POST-OFFICE RULINGS.

To keep cut glass always in a state of sparkling beauty requires time and care. It should be washed in warm soapsuds and then rinsed in hot, but not boiling, water. Let it stand in a pan of dry sawdust until dry, then brush with a soft brush and rub with a piece of chamois, and the result will be well worth the trouble. OUT OF THE ORDINARY.

APPROVED BY THE DIRECTORS. Manager Laurell of the Pastime Club Will Not Be Reinstated. The Board of Directors of the Pastime Athletic Club met last night and approved the action of the House Committee in re- questing the resignation of C. W. Laurell as Secretary and Manager and a 2 several other employes. Several p tions for the position were received by the rd, the most prominent of which was from J. E. Ashcroft, who is well-known as a concert director. Several complaints of Mr. Laurell’s management were filed, but after the action of the House Committee the board laid them aside. The matter of the admi fee to the boxing ami wrestling tourhaments was grought up on the complaint that some members abused their privilege of half price admission and it was decided that no member would hereafter be accorded the privilege unless his current quarter’s dues were paid. Several applications from professional ath- letes were made to have the Pastimes in- tercede with the Amateur Athletic Union. for their reinstatement. These were re- ferred to the Athletic Committee.

She stated that some time ago her hus- band sent her away to live on a farm owned by him in Stafford County, Virginia, and that during her absence he instituted di- vorce proceedings, charging her with de- sertion. Her maiden name was Annie Pat- wy and she formerly.resided in Brooklyn, where her fathegis a man of consid- erable prominence. She said she married Leitch in Brooklyn fifteen years ago. A A7 7 ey after their marriage they moved 0 fy ten mg to her story, Leitch sent her to his farm in Virginia last May, saying he would soon follow her,'and that they would make their home there in the future. Since then she has waited in vain for him to put in an appearance. Every week he has.sent her $ with which to 8 for her wants and those of the chi Last November, —— 1 received a mgr on that her hus- applied for a divorce. She was unity without the means to enable her to return to St. Louis to refute the charge, but her father hired a lawyer to look after her interests. The county of Stafford then fur- nished her with transportation for ‘herself Hand children to St. Louis, and she has come to fight the divorce case, which comes up before Judge Valliant next Friday. When she arrived in the city Leitch | was penniless, and with her ire is de- pendent upon the Police Department. Andrew 8S. Leitch, her husband, was seen at the office of the Union Record, 417 South Fourth street, where he is empleyed | as man- ‘Brought denied ate charges satisf For the first few years we lived in Brooklyn, an had many ments. One on 4 home in the evening, I foun my wife had left me and taken our two chil- dren with her. I located her in the home of a friend in Brooklyn, and after locking up our own home I took the keys and gave them to her: I hired a room for myself and continued to work at my trade as a printer. A few months later I left Brooklyn and traveled es. Eh the South, working in dif- ferent cities — following year I came to St. Louis and have been bere ever since. For the first few years I worked as a com- ‘positor on one of the newspapers and later started the Union Record. “About a year after my arrival in St. Louis my wife found where I was and fol- lowed me here. She told a false story to the police, and a detective came to me and threatened to arrest me if I did not live with her. If I had known her then as well as I do now F would have defied her, but as it was I took her bach to avoid trouble. I furnished a home for her in town and we went to housekeeping. Certain things came up, the character of which I do not are to state, which led me to separate from her. I engaged a room elsewhere in the city, ' but continued to support her and the children. She was forced to change her residence a number of times on account of the neigh- bors complaining to the landlords regarding the way she conducted herself. I refuse to state the nature of these complaints. This final separation between us took place about ear ago last May. She had been woe- extravagant and had got me head over s in debt. It was due to her extrava- ce that I lost- possession of the Union Record. several creditors of her making having threatened to sue me. “Last May I told her I was going to get a divorce if possible, afd told her that if she desired I would send her to my farm in Vir- ginia. She accepted my proposition and gave me to understand that she would not oppose my action in the divorce suit. Her story about my sending her away and then bringing the suit without her know is all bosh. I don’t wish to make any direct charges against her now, but the testimony at the wel A am =. show that I am not to b oo e matter.’ ‘When asked if he would render his wife any financial aid in her present impover- ished condition, Mr. Leitch replied: % will take the children and provide for them, but as far as she is concertied 1 never intend having anything to do with her again.“ . * fuifs hee COURAGE OF A MOTHER.

The United States Consul at Gothenberg (Mr. Boyesen), in a report to the State Department, shows that, by a royal ordinance, the import duties on grains have been greatly increased, in some cases more than 100 per cent. The rates are as follows, per 100 kilos (22) pounds): Rye, wheat, barley, maize, peas, beans and ether kinds not specially provided for- old rate, 1.2 kroners; new rate, 3.15 kroners (34 cents).

As à result of * they consider an a t to Mr. Morrill and their society, it is said to have mated to Dr. Mart that it fectly agreeable to his parish continue to remain away. F runs high in the vicinity of the handsome house of worship at Vincennes avenue and Thir- ty-sixth street. In the opinion of many of those opposed to him, the preacher was most unhappy in his choice of topics. They did not wis wives and daughters to go to church hear abont the vice and degeneracy of ng tom-house place, of Armour avenue and the Levee district discussed, even.if it was de- nounced. They wanted a minister who held himself more closely to an exposition of re doctrines of the Christian religion in ublic talks. The dissatisfaction — — ut Dr. Martyn continued in the eourse he marked out for himself, and his sermons became more violent week by week. That portion of his flock not in sympathy with Dr. Martyn began to openly suggest his resignation, and finally, within two years of his “‘call’’ to the Sixth Presbyterian pul- pit. he did ask the Board of Trustees to re- 28 him. Whether he was formally re- ested to quit could not be ascertained. — Martyn will, however, continue to draw his salary as pastor until May 1, though he expects to be relieved from active duty be- fore March The reverend doctor, when interviewed, was inclined to make light of the trouble that led to his resignation, and the later o- currences that have caused the date of the separation to be advanced three months. “It’s all poppy-cock.“ said he. “Of course some of my parishioners disagree with me, but there was no unpleasantness whatever. I have only kindly feelings toward the members of the Sixth Church. My relations with them were and still are of the p! antest nature. I have taken up this rei work because I thought it my duty. naturally I have made some enemies. truth is not always palatable, and when a man’s corns are trod on he winces.“ The Rev. Carlos Martyn began to minister to the spiritual welfare of the Presbyterians of the South Side in December, 1892. He came to Chicago from Newark, N. J., and the vigorous character of his sermons soon attracted attention. He took a prominent part in the movements looking to munici- 4 reform, and the bitter opposition to im manifested by a portion of his parish- re ag eventually culminated in his resigna- tion COMMERCIAL CRIME Adolph Sutro Lays Bare Pacific Railway Corruption. NEW YORK, Jan. 30.—The lobbies for and against the extension of the Pacific Rall- way’s time of settlement with the Govern- ment are now in Washington working ac- tively. Their strength is such that consid- eration of financial questions of greater im- portance is interfered with. The latest ad- dition to the literature of the battle is the following letter written by the re- form Mayor of San Francisco, a mil- lionaire who won office by his fight against the Pacific franchise grabbers: SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 29, 1895. lf the true history of the Pacific railroads and the iniquities connected therewith were written it would form a record probably never equalled in the annals of commercial crime. From the day the first Pacific Rail- road bill passed Congress the beneficiaries inaugurated a system of cheating the Gov- ernment and robbing the people that has been carried on till the present day. Among the results are the general destruction of prosperity in California, the failure of farm- ers, and the decrease and almost cessation of manufactories and the ruin of jobbing houses and merchants. This is not all. The evil influence of these unscrupulous men has brought about a condition of social affairs which has prob- ably never been seen in any other State ot the Union. Corruption and bribery have wielded a high hand, and the example set by those men rolling in their ili-gotten wealth has been destructive of honor and honesty in the rising generation. They have corrupted our judiciary; they have corrupted our Municipal Council; they have corrupted our Legisiature, and they have corrupted Congress. They have, by espionage, intimidated and made cowards of our merchants. They have by the power of money managed to control public opin- ion, and they have loweréd our standards as citizens of the United States. All this evil has been brought about by the Southern Pacific of Kentucky’s monop- oly of the carrying trade. Its constant aim has been to extort in freights and fares all that the traffic would bear. in order to maintain their monopoly they managed to kill all incipient projects for competing rail- roads. They — subsidized for .many years the Pac Mail Steamship Company, and “wey 1 os the control of even a saili- a6 ss hip around Cape Horn. The Southern e magnates have stripped the Central Pacific of everything it possessed, turned it to thelr own use and put the proceeds in their own pockets. As security to the United States Govern- ment they have, to use their own language, left nothing behind but two st of rust from the Missoufi to the Pacific, and now they have the hardihood to ask for fifty years’ extension 5 a. their debt, their real purpose 2 a release from their personal lia ne, 1 the only security the Government Pe pay ty The 7 ey of California protest, and the ote has been signed by over 200,000 vot- rs against any kind of refund.

Like the Statesman From Kansas, the Prise-Fighter-Actor Believes That One Knock-Out Is Enough for Any Man. KANBAS CITY, Mo., Jan. 30.—The Hon. John J. Ingalis, ex-Unitec Slates Senator from Kansas, and John L. Sullivan, ex- champion heavyweight prize fighter, have met, and, according to witnesses of the meeting, are the best ot friends. Ralph Ingalls, son of the ex-Senator, who was the cause of the two men coming to- gether on an east-bound passenger train on which both were ers, gives an inter- esting recital of the affair. Mr. Ingalls was on his way to Texas on a lecturing tour, while Sullivan was coming to Kansas City with his theatrical company to fill. an en ment, The ex-Senator had been admiring Sullivan’s physique, and upon learning his * dentity immediately evinced een nterest and desired to meet him. Ingalis contrived to bring the two ramen men together. They clasped hands and indul in a hearty shake. “I am p to meet you, Mr. Sullivan,” said Mr. Ingalls. “I have heard much of you, and admired your remarkable pugilis- tic prowess.“ It affords me Aare pleasure to meet you, Senator Ingalls, answered Sullivan. 1 have read many of your speeches in the Sen- ate, and I have always considered you one of the greatest men of this country.“ Mr. Ingalls said he would like to feel of Mr. Sullivan’s strong right arm which had ut many ponents to sleep, and hoped r. Sullivan would take no offense or con- sider him forward or impertinent. Mr. Sullivan declared that it would afford him t pleasure, and immediately pulled off his coat and extended his arm for Mr. In lls' inspection. Mr. Ingalis felt of the arm for a moment. He then stood back a few feet and gazed rapturously upon the great expanse of chest and shoutliers, after which he felt of Mr. Sullivan’s hand. After finishing his inspection, Mr. Ingalls ex- claimed: “I don’t wonder that you licked so many men and held the world’s cham- pionship so long, with those powerful arms and that massive, sturdy frame.“ “John,” he continued, laying his hand gently upon Mr. Sullivan’s shoulder, “why don’t you enter the ring again and try to win the championship from Corbett?“ “For the same reason, I guess, that you did not enter the race for Senator.“ replied Mr. Sullivan, with a merry twinkle in his eye. “I consider one knockout enough.“ They say you are too old to put up a suc- cessful] fight, said Mr. Ingalls. The talk about a man being too old to fight ‘after he is 35 is all nonsense,“ ex- claimed Mr. Sullivan, who went on to give reasons. The two men, who had become the center of an interested group of passengers, con- versed till the train reached the Union De- pot. At parting Sullivan presented his pict-’ ure to Mr. Ingalls, and each shook hands with the hope that they might soon meet again. WAS IT DYNAMITE? Experts Investigate the Cause of the Mendota Brewery Explosion. MENDOTA, III., Jan. 30.—So0 many con- flicting stories are in circulatién as to the cause of the wrecking of the brewery of C. Henning & Sons, of this city, that the coroner’s jury determined to investigate Christian Henning, senior mefhber of the firm, said he did not believe the disaster was caused by the bursting of a boiler, as the havoc occassioned was entirely too great to come from that source. Frank Henning, who was slightly injured in the wreck, . believes that the disaster was caused by dynamite. He did not believe that’ the heavy ice engine, weighing up- wards of twenty tons, could have n com- letely Overturned, anchorage and an hen shattered to pleces sim by the ex- losiéh of the boilers.” He di 0 not believe hat the ground ‘would have been rent by a boiler explosion. He is borne out in this opinion by two expert boiler irispectors from Chic and one from La Salle who have been at work on the matter the last two days. Some of the facts discovered by the latter have caused a decided sensation, particularly among the relatives and friends of the killed and injured as well as those of the brewery owners. Mr. Hennin would not say sang. el ‘he thought e dynamite was goa in the brewer by design or whether t was being us used by the well diggers. FELL DEAD IN COURT.
