HIS FATE IN THE BALANCE. The Double Murderar Must Be Saved so * Now or Not at All, for Trial for Murder Means Death. Special to the Post-Dispatch. UNION, Mo., April 30.—The second legal fnquiry into the sanity of Arthur Deus- trow, the wealthy St. Louis wife and child murderer, did not begin until 1 o’clock this afternoon, when the calling of the panel of jurors Was taken up. Judge Rudolph Hirzel, the presiding judge of the Franklin County Circuit Court, was ageupied all morning with clearing up his docket, pre- paratory to the protracted contest again ARTHUR DUESTROW. ected in the all absorbing Duestrow case. Weraewhat more trouble is. anticipated in the selection of the jury than at the last hearing, owing to the wide spread -notorte of thé case in this county, attained last February, when the twelve gapss failed to. reach any conclusion as to the defendant’s mental condition. Yet Jndge Hirzel expects to begin the taking of testimony before the day is finished. -According to his expressed intentions, he will hold court every even- ing, as is his custom in complicated cases, and get through the hearing at all hazards by the end of the week. This time the atr uae between the op- posing sides is to be far fiercer and more itter than it was before. The State is better prepared a dozen times over, and the statement is being freely made among Circuit Attorney Zachritz’ witnesses that it will be positively proven that Duestrow is shamming. “Just wait until the State’s evidence comes, and you will hear-something drop,”’ is an expression which has been used more than once by those in a- position to know what is going to happen. The testimony of the defense, which, in this action, has the affirmative of the ques- tion at issue, will probably take less time in its exposition than before.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. LOUISVILLE, Ky., April 30.—Archibald Dixon Brown, son of Kentucky’s Governor, and recently divorced from his wife, and Mrs. Nellie Bush Gordon, wife of Fulton Gordon, a well-known ex-hotel clerk, were found at noon together in a questionable resort and were both almost instantly killed by the outraged husband. Trouble has been expected for some time. Mrs. Gordoh was a very handsome wom- an, belonged to a good family and was the sister of Sam Stone Bush, late editor of Fetter’s Magazine. Brown's pistol was under the pillow of the bed. He got it and shot Gordon fatally before expiring himself. ' FIVE LIVES LOST. A Russian Man-of-War Runs Down a 4 Mail Steamer. VIENNA, April 30.—According to a Se- bastopol dispatch the Russian warship Penderaklia of the Black Sea and the Rus- sian mail steamer Kotzebu collided near Tallinhut lightship. The warship, an old vessel, was damaged below the water-line, but stove a hole in the other vessel, which filled rapidly and sank, five men gaing down with it and being lost. The others on the Kotzebu,. both passengers and crew, were taken aboard the Penderaklia, some of them being picked up after she went. down. WILDE AS A WITNESS. He Absolutely Denies the Charges Against Him. LONDON, April 30.—The old Bailey was less crowded to-day when the court opened for what’ was expected to be the last day of the trial of Oscar Wilde and Alfred Taylor on the charge of serious misdemean- or. Counsel for the Crown, when the pro- ceedings opened, withdrew their charge of ty } conspiracy against Witide, saying: that he} desired to avoid to avoid any difficulty in placing .the.prisoners in«the witressstand. Sir ward Clarke, Q. C., counsel for the accused, demanded a verdict of not -gullty on we count, but the Judge refiised to ai- low it. , Sir Edward Clarke, in the opening speech for the. defefse, denounced the conduct of a large-section of the press, saying that it was such as to gheemens ‘the case of his client and imperil the interests of justice. Wilde was then placed upon the stand, and absolutely denied that there was a word of truth in the charges of indecency brought against him. He answered the questijns of Sir Bdward Clarke in subdued tones, During the examination of the prisoner by his counsel it was apparent that there was a remarkable change in the character of those attending the trial. It was evi- dent that many of Wilde’s friends were present in court, and the general atmos- phere of the place was less hostile to the prisoner than upon previous occasions. Sir Edward Clarke, who will be remem- bered as having withdrawn from the Queensberry case, where he acted as coun- sel for Wilde in the prosecution of the Mar- quis on the charge of libel, wh:ch charge fell to the ground, made a masterly speech to-day. Im it he claimed that. Wilde was a martyr, and had accepted a verdict of not guilty in the Queensberry case, only be- cause it was evident that it could not be properly tried then. But it could now be determined on a proper issue, according to counsel. When Wilde was placed in the dock it was evident that he had been well coached for the occasion. He seemed to have lost all the swagger which so disgusted all who witnessed it during the former trial. Mr. C. F. Gill, on behalf of the prosecu- tion, began his cross-examination on the same lines as that of Mr. Edward M. Car- n, Q. C., who defended the Marquis of ueensberry against the charge of libel. e quoted from_the sonnet to Lord Alfred Pouglass, in which occurred the line: “I am that love; but, dare not speak its name. Mr. Gill asked what was the nature of the love represented in that poem. Wilde, with marked deliberation and emphasis, an- swered: “It is a love not understood in this century. It is the love of David for Jonathan—a room spiritual affection, as pure as it is perfect. It:is something thi age does not understand. It sometimes pu one into the pillory. " As Wide finish his answer there were loud cheers from the gallery, which called forth a rebuke from the Judge, who threat- ened to eject those who took part in the demonstration.

MUST ALSO PAY A $500 FINE Judge Murphy Demonstrates That There Is Punishment Besides Bul- lets for the Wrecker of Homes. Six months in the Workhouse and a fine of $500 is the penalty Henry W. Chandler will pay for ruining the domestic happiness of James F. Coyle. . Judge Murphy of the Court of Criminal Correction réndered his decision in the fa- mous case at 11 o’clock Tuesday morning. The sentence carries with it all the accesso- ries of hard labor on the rock pile; the rough, unpleasant prison garb and the hard read and molasses diet with which inmates of Lohrum’s reform institution are enter- tained. The decision means that there is a law founded on public policy that punishes pri- vate immorality and a Judge on the bench to uphold the law, The statute against lewd conduct had fallen into desuetude until Chandler’s fla- grant violation of friendship and the marital relation brought about its revival. There is no appeal from the sentence of the court and the Lothario who stood de- H. W. GHANDLER: fenseless before the horrible char will expiate amid the filth and brutal com- panionship of the Work-house for his mo- ments of illicit enjoyment in a West End mansion. Chandler was not In the Court of Criminal Correction when Judge’ Murphy ascended the bench. He was down in .the office of Charles M. Napton, his lawyer. He was so confident of acquittal that he deemed it un- necessary to come up to the Four Courts. Lawyer Napton was in court, however, and so was Judge Thomas B. Harvey, who pros- ecuted Chandler last Thursday, and Mr. Ford Smith, attorney for J. F. Coyle in the divorce preceedings. Mr. Coyle was also in court. Judge Murphy announced at about 10:15 c’clock that he was ready to der a deci- sion in the now famous case ainst Chand- ler for immoral conduct. efore proceed- ing, howeyer, he glanc over the court- room and. Totepesing~Chandier, inquired whether he was present. He was not, and then Judge Murphy demanded that he be brought in. He stated he would not an- nounce the decision until Chandler ‘was present. ; Then Lawyer Napton knew that it was all He with his clHent. He telephoned to his office for Chandler to come up. Chandler came and seated himself with _ —- well back from the judge's ench. Judge Murphy cleared his throat and then announced his decision with great deliberation. : “The question in my mind,” said Judge Murphy, “has been whether there is any ground for a reasonable doubt as to the de- fendant’s guilt. Sitting as a jury I must find the defendant guilty to a moral certain- ty, or else innocent.. I must find him guilty to a moral certainty of abiding with Mrs. Coyle for immoral purposes. he meaning of a moral certainty is ‘according to all hu- man experience.’ ith that interpretation in mind I have come to the conclusion that the defendant is guilty as charged. I assess his punishment at six months in the Work House and fine.”’ Back at the attorney’s table Harry W. Chandler sat, apuesemty unmoved at the words of Judge Murphy. “Your Honor,,I desire to move for a new trial,” announced Mr. Napton when the -de- ciston was concluded. Judge Murphy intimated that that was perfectly regular. . We, ill you fix a bond?” asked the lawyer. Yes, I shall require $2,500 bond pending the motion for a new trial.” Mr. Napton’s face clouded, but he stated to the court that he would fix up the bond a8 soon as he could get the sureties. aR can’t get that bond,” declared Ford Chandler and his attorney sat side by | side for some minutes after the decision. Chandler said he no statement to make for publication. Chandler’s crime is still fresh in the pub- lic mind. On geveral occasions during the month of March past Chandler spent the night at Coyle’s house during the latter's absence from the city. On the night of March 23 Coyle, Lawyer Ford Smith and several detectives found the pair ering signal he would enter the house the master. illicit al. te 6 Cir- n the same ler’s conviction Tex., April 30.—Late last sOr “e deat mute, Was run over ron the Fort Worth electric tty killed.

Police Believe That He Is the Murder- er of Christy Masterson. John J. (alias ‘“‘Kid’’) Carroll, the sus- pected murderer of Christy Masterson, is still at large. Bight of Chief Desmond’s best men and a number of patrolmen in citisens’ clothes who are personally ac- quainted with Carroll are scouring the city, visiting all his known haunts and stead- —. following every clew, so far without avail. His disappearance, coupled with the cir- cumstantial evidence found against him,’ has led the police to believe him gullty. The theories of his disappearance are now based on the probability that Carroll has managed to get out of town with the aid of money stolen from the till. His description has been telegraphed in all direotions, and it is thought his capture will result in a short time. BASELY ENTRAPPED. Japan Believes She Was Tricked in the Peace Negotiations.

Horace Van North, doctor and druggist, of 5651 Easton avenue, has learned a severe lesson in the ethics of courtship. Van North was smitten by the petite and pretty Miss Ama Jackson of 6624 Theodosia avenue. He called on her frequently, took her to Wagoner Place Baptist urch and conducted himself like a true da ardent lover until the young lady’s big brother, George Jackson, a traveling man for Rum- sey & Sikemeier, left town on a business trip. Then Van North introduced tactics into his courtship that begot his presence in MISS AMA JACKSON. the Second District Police Court Tuesday morning with both eyes draped in mourn- ing, a contused forehead and a nose bounte- ously decorated with court plaster The whyness of Van North’s raw and bat- tered visage was a visit he recefved last night from big brother George Jackson and younger brother Josiah Jackson, an able- bodied plumber. The Jackson brothers do not believe that *‘all ig fair in love and war,’’ at least they draw the line on giving and trying on of garters. Therefore they punched Van North last night and pleaded guilty to a charge of disturbing the peace. Van North took the stand. first and told Judge Paxson how the Jackson brothers had wiped up Easton avenue with him last night. He claimed that George Jackson led him from behind his soda fountain to the sidewalk for a momentary interview. He acquiesced. . “Why did you insult. my sister?” inquired Josiah, as he made a at him.

This sub-committee will report by a vote of 4 to 1 that it does not believe that general bills can be taken up. In all prob- ability the committee will sustain the sub- committee and report a bill embodying their views back to the Senate. The minority,of the committee who will want to g0 outside of the Governor’s call and go into general legislation, will also make a report. This in all probability will hap- en before the Railroad mittee, which as the Baskett bill before it, can report. Then will come the test vote. The Sena- tors who wish to kill_all } lation under the guise of a general bill will be found to- gether.

It is prized more dearly than what would seem to be a temporary party advantage. It is needless to go over the frauds that have made elections in St. Louis and Kansas City well nigh a farce. Notwithstanding the frauds of last fall were fully exposed and many of the guilty parties now await trial in the courts, the spring elections, though showing improvement, developed Slaring instances of illegal voting. “Our election laws—appiicable to Kansas City and St. Louis—have been proven to be inefficient, and have opened the door rather than closed it. against frauds. Until these - Jaws are radically changed we may expect an increase of wrong-deing at each élection. if the people of the country districts are deeeply concerned in this measure, St. Louis and Kansas City, to which this law applies, contain mofe than one-fourth of the popula- tion’ of the State, and as such they aseist in the election of State officials and in shaping State policy. It will benefit the voters in the country districts but little to know that however honest they may be in the vote cast its effect is easily nullified by the frauds practiced in the larger cities. “This bill has been drawn by the Com- mittee of 100, the names of Which appear on the back of this sheet, so that the character ‘of men urging its passage may be seen. “We earnestly ask that you will at once Bee or write to the Senator or member from ‘your district of whatever party and use your influence to secure the passage of the St. ‘Louis Safety Committee bill. Our firm is Allen’s alleged business to take charge of bills after they are printed, and see that they are given to Senators and persons who are entitled to have them. It is an notori- ous fact that bills were always hard to get. They were soon exhausted. The reason was, it is asserted, that friends of the lobby always got the first copies. When the Sen- ate adjourned at the regular session, Allen had more stationary than he could pack in a Saratoga. Allen was such a valuable man to Phelps that his whole family was taken care of. On the pay roll of the Senate, as a page, is Percy R. Allen. Percy is a son of the Dill clerk. He is a bright boy and he drew $1.50 from the State during the regular session. And he is still drawing it. Allen; the father, is a Democrat, but it wouldn’t do to take care of too many Al- lens in the Senate. The House is Re- publican, and Chief Clerk Griffin is a Filley cuckoo of the most consistent variety. But that didn’t prevent him, when the name of’ Ray Allen was sent to him by the lobby, from putting him on the rough journal force of the House. Roy, like his father, is a Democrat. Roy draws $3.50-a day from the Filley House. Thus the Allen’family is pretty well taken care of. At $3.50 for the father and $1.50 for Percy in the Democratic Senate, and $3.50 a day for Roy from the Republican House, the Allens are doing quite well. As the regular session lasted eighty-one days, they ought to have had enough to keep the wolf from the door next winter, even if the special session had not been called. os i PRs - Fe TIPPED. OVER.

Ferber rent the boat from Mr. Stevens, who has the boat privilege at the lake. It was @ rickety old tub and had no keel. Stevens recommertided it as perfectly safe.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., April 2.—Senator Dan Voorhees, in a talk with the Wash- ington correspondent of the Sentinel, comes out squarely for the free coinage of silver at 16 to lL. He says: ‘‘The real and vital issue now presented to the American people is the proposed elimi- nation of silver from our currency, its total overthrow and destruction as a money metal and the use of gold alone. This is now what is meant by the movement against the free coinage of silver, whatever disclaimers may be made to the contrary, This movement means the panecinine pe 9 of one-half of the of the United States and should be successful ‘it | Silver money will not only survive, but it will be fully restored to its old place as a leading and controlling — ° e anThe commission does not take cogniz- ,ance of any utterances that have been made by Dr. Newton since its appointment, s0 that his recent sermon could not have whatever others may do, I s abandon my principles nor my ss I am ma Ba unmindfu of e raised a Dr. Newton did not appear before the commission last night, as it has no power to cite persons, but it is believed that a report is at completed, and that upon the doctor's attitude in the pulpit in as = future will largely depend of that report, which has hung money as sound. and : same views were enter't | 80 Am be called at any time at the call of “ahi man, but it is beli that the 1 be a asked to appoint a rman. the s, of the commission are th 01 sins, a f the Rey.

Intelligent publicists do not disagree on this point. It is conceded on all sides that whoever controls money occupies the throne and exercises the royal prerogative. The taxing power and the control of the currency are different forms of the same power. If a class can cause the levy of taxes for its benefit, it is king. If it can control the currency, it is king. Under the Wilson bill as it was shaped by Messrs. Cleveland and Carlisle and originally reported before any amend- ment whatever was made to it, it levied protective taxes much higher than were levied by the Morrill war tariff Demo- crats have always denounced. It did this because Mr. Cleveland wished it done— because in the last National Democratic Convention, through his personal repre- sentatives, Messrs. Whitney and Vilas, he caused the “revenue only” declaration to be stricken from the platform and to be substituted for it the protectionist straddle which the convention repudiated. Seeming to yield to the-will of the con- vention, Mr. Cleveland merely dissembled and as soon as he was safe in the White House he returned to his original atti- tude—as he did on the currency question also. When he forced the currency issue by declaring the country in imminent dan- ger from the liability of silver to circu- late—for that is virtually what he did declare—the purpose of the men controll- ing him was to prevent a thorough re- form of the Democratic party by dividing it and to secure control of the currency on a double standard of a very little gold and a great deal of corporation paper-~ the latter representing nothing in the world but debt and inflatio™ As far as Mr. Clevelgnd knows any- thing about the. etifrency question, he believes in #hé¢ double standard of gold end ,»PAper—of circulating corporation ~~ “aébt floated three to one against gold— . now seeks to force final account representing thé s0v' that is with every gold dollar inflated by three pieces of silk paper, each one a hun- dred cents less than nothing. But it is not possible to believe that Mr. Cleveland was cognizant of the scope of the plans of the men controlling him. His mind is too narrow and his informa- tion too limited to get at the governing and central truths of any situation. He was governed by his sympathies with the Whitneys, the Benedicts and the other great monopolists and money lords with whom he has been associated since he began his career in New York WBtate politics. It was through their in- fluence that he filled his Cabinet with corporation attorneys and national bank directors and railroad agents—the Hoke Smiths, the Bissells, the Olneys and the Mortons, who are wholly out of sympathy with the Democratic party on every vital issue. . e same alliances that he npeheeningy eer to immediate settle- ment an issue of gold against silver— an issue which does not really exist at all. ‘The real issue is cash—the money of the people representing thelr sover- eignty—against paper notes representing corporation debt and the most dangerous rm of inflation. gece dena Mr. Cleveland may #ay to the contrary, he is an inflationist, for he opposes cash—the metallic money of contre l of the people over and attémpts to substitute ’ % 3 “1. ~~ ** ‘se of it, Boss Filley’s : Mr. John G. Carlisle once believed that the country had suffered more from his friend Jo Sherman than war and pestilence. The situation has not changed fn the least now that he and his present proprietor; Mr: Cleveland, have taken their ground with John Sherman against the Democracy and popular sov- ereignty. He was right then and it is true now that if the plutocratic con- spiracy of which Mr. Cleveland is the willing if unintelligent agent is allowed to succeed, the injury and loss to the people will be greater than the total loss from any pestilence or the direct loss from any war in the country’s history. Se ee ee In last Sunday’s Post-Dispatch there were 40 columns of Want Ads., com- prising 1,578 different advertisements, as compared with 27 columns and 1,326 advertisements in the correspond- ing Sunday issue of last year. The Post- Dispatch is the people’s paper and is very naturally and properly becoming the vehicle for making known the peo- ple’s wants. Twice as many St. Louis people read the Want Ads. of the Post- Dispatch as read those of any other newspaper. PASS THE ANTI-LOBBY BILL. The bill introduced in the Missourl House by Representative Davidson of Marion to prohibit lobbying is based upon the law of Virginia on this subject, but is much clearer in its definitions and more drastic in its penalties. It is a carefully considered measure, well-cal- culated to meet the emergency now con- fronting the people of this State. And yet it is fair and just. The right of pe- tition is not abridged. The opportunity for presenting facts and arguments in writing is not denied to persons or cor- porations, under proper conditions, and no personal rights whatever are in- fringed. Every member of the Missouri Legisla- ture—Democrat, Republican and Popu- list—who honestly desires that the lobby be controlled in its nefarious business can vote for this bill. This was one of the purposes of the extra session and since the House has formally resented every in- sinuation that it is friendly to the lobby, it now has an opportunity to record, with equal formality, its honest senti- ments on an anti-lobby law. The Davidson bill should be pressed to enactment as rapidly as due considera- tion of its provisions will permit. EE Eee THE POLICEMAN’S PISTOL. A morning newspaper gives an account of how Officer Nelson of the Third Dis- trict chased two small boys yesterday afternoon, firing his pistol at them as he ran, and only stopped firing when the poys had disappeared. The occasion for this warlike display was the fact that while playing ball in the street one of the boys made a wild throw and hit the policeman. The officer claims he was hit by a brick. But who gave this policeman, or any other policeman, authority to shoot at small boys, no matter what their offense? Who bestowed upon this officer or any other officer the right to go shooting through the streets of this town at his own will and pleasure? The policeman’s ready revolver and offended dignity have already a long list of disturbances and tragedies to answer for, and it is about time the Chief and the Police Board put an end to this sort of business. Such a performance as that of Officer Nelson is a disgrace to the Board and the department. TE a a THE BRIDGE COMBINE’S DEFAULT. In the case of the people vs. the bridge combine before *the Illinois Legislative Committee the default of the defendants caps the overwhelming testimony against them. The refusal of the representatives of the bridge, terminal and ferry interests to appear is based upon stronger reasons than they have given to the committee or the public. They are afraid to go before the investigating committee. They are afraid to face Atty.-Gen. Moloney on the witness stand. ey know him to be an investigator who investigates to find out things. They are afraid to meet the records and testimony which he holds. They prefer the implied confes sion of evasion to direct confession on the stand. With all of his profession of anxlety to meet the committee and to answer any questions that might be put to him, Maj. Rainsvater has decided that having writ- ten a letter to the commission, he will not testify. Those who have read his letter will commend his decision. The Post-Dispatch has shown how hollow and irrelevant the pleas set up in his letter are. The part of his letter in which he attempted to justify the combine rates was punctured with holes by Chairman Cantrell of the Illinois Board of Rail- road and Warehouse Commissioners. Mr. Cantrell showed that Maj. Rainwater misrepresented the facts by comparing switching with hauling charges and that the combine rates are greatly in excess— on one kind of freight $7.50 per car—of the maximum rates allowed by the IIli- nois Board. The default of the combine leaves nothing to do but to report the findings and have the courts’pronounce judgment. ——_-- -—-— © BEFORE AND AFTER. Before the election the local Republican organ could not find words too strong to use In praising the Council ticket that Boss Filley put up for the city Republi- cans. The odor of bossism clinging around it was a rare and grateful per- fume. No city had ever been blessed with such a splendid ticket. The candidates were praised gingly and. collectively. Each man was commended to the voters by name, and for the ticketQYas a whole it was a privilege to vote. | After the election all is changed. Most ef these noblest works of God have be- come common clay, not to say dirt. They are “bad men,” Y. “one-horse politicians elected under false promises.” They are parts of a “maladorous combine * * * not one member of which could be elected to-morrow, and not one member of which will ever again be elected to any office in this city.” Not extraordinary than the ! _—- "Yan fro | high esta : bn a ”~ the slough of “bad men,” “one-horse poli- ticlans” and “maladorous combines,” not because they have voted for bad public measures or have, aided, abetted or shared in the looting of the city. They have broken no promises to the public and have not disappointed the voters. The griefs of the disgruntled organ are private. Its erstwhile political pets have refused to “crook the pregnant hinges of the knee” to its mightiness. They have declined to swallow with smiling alacrity the queer concoction mixed by good Dr. Walbridge with the aid of the disgruntled organ. They have shown “political virility” in daring to smash the slate indorsed by the organ. They have had the insolence to insist on having a finger in the spoils pie appro- priated by the Mayor and the organ. Hence these curses. _— _ — CU It is charged distinctly and specifically that Chairman Hammond of the Pass Investigating Committee has used a pass ever since he has been a member of the House, that he has ridden on it on his trips to Kansas City, and that during one of his trips to the capital during the regular session he and a friend who was with him’ both exhibited passes to the conductor and rode on them.

Mr. Baker is well known as an honored Knight of St. Patrick and his connection with the Order of Elks, of which heits Exalted Ruler, has given him an opportunity to judge of the merits of singers and players. Of the cast of the opera Mr, William Brod- erick deserves more than passing mention, because of the fact that he not only made his character of the ‘‘Pirate Chief’’ a great one in voice, action and dramatic effect, but he assisted others who were not so “‘well up” in ae their parts in the opera to a successful and finished conclusion. Mr. Broderick’s voice is better than ever, and that it pleased the audience was evidenced by the numerous encores received. Miss Kitty Marcellus, the prima soprano, was a good and pleasing ‘‘Mabel,’’ but that young lady’s costume was quite inappro- priate for the season in which the opera is supposed to take place. Mr. Abdill as “Frederick’”’ could be improved upon, and that gentleman should sing to his audience and not to the chorus. John J. Cahill, a local amateur, mad6é a comical sergeant of gyre The chorus, while in good voice, will im- prove, no doubt. The girls are pretty and as a whole the opera is well costumed and staged. Mr. Packard, the stage manager, deserves credit for his management. The officers of the Police Relief Assoctia- tion are Daniel B. og! President; Sergeant George T. McNamee, Vice President; Oweh McNamee, Secretary; John E. Reedy, Treas- urer. They expressed themselves as well pleased with Mr. Baker’s efforts and bespeak for him and the company high praise. The opera will run the entire week with matinees on Wednesday and Saturday. An elegant souvenir will be presented to every lady attending Friday evening. Reasoning Unpalatable to Wall Street. To the Editor of The Post-Dispatch. The Republic is busy crooning the Cuckoo song and is masquerading it as the tradi- tions and teachings of the Democratic party. A mild protest in harmony with the views of four-fifths of its party readers has been turned down as unavallable in its entirety, et eviscerated for editorial comment in onday’s issue. The following is the com- munication in full, for whose insertion in the columns of your paper accept thanks in advance. G. W. HILL, Editor of the St. Louis Republic. As a reader of your paper, and a good average Democrat of thirty years’ standing, it strikes me that your editorials on the money question lack the breadth and fair- ness with which you are wont to treat im- portant issues of the day. You cite the principles and precedents of the party as essentially opposed to a 16 to 1 ratio or to any ratio not based on ex- change values, and hint at your possible consent to an impossible thing—free coinage at 30 or 32 to 1. It is history that neither of “the great parties ever dared to commit itself to any other ratio; that even our 16 to 1 ratio, in use for forty years, was an undervaluation of stiver and contributed largely to its de- monetization by causing its exodus to the higher markets of Europe and creafifg a. suspicion—since verified—that the United States were preparing to follow the lead of England to a gold standard? Whatever legal. tender powers are yet retained by silver in Europe are on the ratio of 15.5 to 1, and it is unreasonable to ex t the late double standard countries will consent to change a 15.5 to 1 ratio (whose fixity for 300 years was disturbed Bag the United States ratio alone), to a ratio based on present ex- change value at a cost to them of $600,000,00¢ or , 000,000. at logic or justice is there, anyhow, in comparing silver, a commodity under the disfavor of the law, with ye a money under the favor of the law, in order to ar- rive at a quantitative ratio? It is just as logical and just to take corn and wheat; whose ratio with normal supplies of each is about 2 to 1, and deprive corn of its feed and food uses by the law, thereby es- tablishing a ratio, say 5 to 1, and then main- tain that its restoration to its natural uses is safe and right only at or about that ratio. The rank and file of the country, irre- spective of party, want to get right on the money question, are willing to learn and on a fair and full presentation of the facts can be trusted to rendering a verdict which the rest can afford to abide by. If there is any way by which any money at all can be kept in this country with an annual outfiow of some $300,000,000 and an inflow of one-half that sum, without the periddic issue of bonds, they want to know it. If the gold standard will be the cure or is the aaa of this deficit, ir gold and silver promise the only relief and the standard for some reason is unattainable, they want ow it.

CITY, Mo., April 30.—The Democrats of the House last night adopted, by a vote of 32 to 1, with four members not” voting, a resolution declaring for the free and unlimited coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1. But the vote had a still deeper significance. During the course of the de- bate, the advisability of calling a Stat convention, was injected, and the vote on the adoption of the resoltion, with-the pos- sibility of three, four or five exceptions, represents the sentiments of the caucus on that question. The caucus was in session until 11:30, and there was a great deal of talking, but the — showed that the sentiment was all one Gill, of Clay, was the voted ainst the resolution, Rothwell, of Pettis; Pritchett, Howard; Lynch, of St. Louis, and Armstrong of Henry did not vote.

Rothweil of Randolph did not think it was expedient to take action at present. He said that he was not clear on the question himself and that he believed that the adop- tion of the resolution would be construed into an attempt to mold public opinion in recon eee Seereneen. Several re ves sa at a what it would mean. a Armstrong and Pritchett declared them- selves epoceed to free coinage at 16 to 1. Weinhold of Perry and McIntyre of Aud- rian said that they and their people were in favor of free coinage, but rsonally they doubted the expediency Dae a State convention now. Merriwether and Cox are probably against a State convention. The discussion then drifted into the ques- tion of the advisability of a State conven- tion, and demonstrated that, with four or five exceptions, the vote on the resolution would be pretty near a test vote of the sentiment of the caucus. It was 11:30 when the vote was taken. After it was announced there was a general movement toward the door. Pollock of Dunklin, however, introduced another resolution calling for a caucus of Democratic members of the House and Sen- ate, State officers and prominent Demo- crats, who might be at the Capital, to dis- cuss the advisability of requesting the State Committee to call a State convention. A motion to adjourn was made and lost, and then it was suggested that, owing to the lateness of the hour and the fact that the discussion of the resolution was likely to be a protracted one, it would be well to postpone the matter. This was agreed to, and at midnight the caucus adjourned. TURNING TO VEST. Missouri Free-Silver Democrats Said to Be Deluging Him With Leters. Special Dispatch to To-Day’s Globe-Democrat. WASHINGTON, D. C., April 29.—Senator Vest’s mail has suddenly assumed startling proportions. There has been nothing like it since the month following the Cleveland in- auguration, when every other Democrat in Missouri was wild to get an office. Th trouble now is silver. When the Senator’t went’ down in his pocket and bought hun- dreds of copies of “‘Coin’s Financial Schoof”’ for free distribution in Missouri he did not expect the results to come quite so rapidly. But now the letters are coming from all parts of the State insisting that the Senator must head a 16 to 1 movement in Missouri. The,writers denounce the Democratic State Central Committee in unmeasured language. They declare that it is in the control of Da- vid R. Francis and gold-bug Democrats. They tell the Senator that it is useless to wait for the committee to take action, and they urge that he name the date for a con- vention. The unanimity and the importun- ity with which the free-silver Democrats of the State are turning to him gratifies the Senator, of course. With.the help of his stenographer he is turning out answers to the hundreds of letters that he has received since the Illinois movement started. He Is heartily in favor of Missouri Democrats taking action and declaring for 16 to 1. It was stated to-day by a prominent Mis- souri office-holder in Washington that the steps are already being taken for a confer- ence of party leaders, which shall issue a call for a delegate convention. The Illinois convention is set for the first week in June. The date the Missourians have in view is the Fourth of July, and the place Sedalia. The State Central Committee will be ignored unless it recognizes the inevitable, comes together and joins the movement, That Senator Vest will attend the conven- tion there is little doubt, although he has not said he will. His correspondence shows him that whatever may have been the talk of new blood and youn men, the party has now come back to him and is looking to him to lead in this 16 to 1 movement. It is stated that the first formal demon- strations looking to the proposed State Con- yention will be in the form of county mass conventions. Several of these will be held in quick succession, the promoters of them being now in communication with Senator Vest and acting with his full sympathy. strong and so numerous are the expressions received, and so generally do they cover the State, that Senator Vest does not think there is the slightest doubt Missouri will quickiy follow the example of Illinois in proclaiming 16 to 1. a SWEEPING OVEa ILLINOIS. ree Silver Coinage Resolutivas Adopted at County Conventions.

Proclamation Issued by the Friends of Free Coinage. AUSTIN, Tex., April 30.—The friends of silver in the ranks of the Texas Democracy to-day issued a proclamation indorsing free coinage of the white metal at l1étol Rea- gan is the recognized leader of this wing of the party and is the author of the procla- mation. It discusses the money question very fully and states that the Democracy of Texas is in favor of the free and unlim- ited coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 tol and the restoration of the silver dollar to the position it eccupied for nearly 100 years in this Government as the monetary unit, and recommends that this be done by the United States without reference to any concurrent action by any other Government. That in order to give effect to these views, they recommend to the Democrats of Texas, who believe accordingly, to hold precinct meetings on Saturday, July 20, 1895, and send representatives to gy mass meetings to be held on Thursday, July 23, 189, for selecting representatives to a gen- eral State mass-meeting to be held at Fort Worth, Tex., on Tuesday, August 6, 1895, for the purpose of more perfectly or- ae the Democrats of this State who lieve in these views and in giving a full and final expression from them on the sil- ver question in the next State and National convention. Much stress is laid on the suggestion that the issue must be fought out on party lines and that the Democracy of the State, if per- mitted to express its sentiments, is over- whelmingly in favor of silver money. Rep- resentative Thomas will to-day introduce in the House a resolution rallying Democracy in Texas to the 16 tol theory. It is certain of adoption. Saline County in Line. MARSHALL, Mo., Apri 30.—Saline Coun- ty Democrats are in line on the silver move- ment. The Central Committee at its meet- ing yesterday called a county convention to meet May 27 to adopt resolutions favoring free coinage of silver.

The great ques- tion, as usual, will be a revision of the wage scale, so as to secure a restoration of the wanes lost during the business dep on, Since the summer of the wages of the iron and steel workers have been going down. The puddling rate fell from $5.50 to per ton, and even that rate has been cut n many places, rene 4 in Pittsburg. The voluntary reduction of 10 per cent in the tonnage rates for finishers was followed last year by a further reduction of 10 per cent and in the Youngstown district the finish- ers took another cut of 15 per cent. The only workers who esca were the sheet mill .hands. The tin-plate workers com- promised with a reduction of 12% and 15 per cent on what was demanded by the manu- yrers. The demand for a wage restora- will likely cover the departments of mill work, with the possible exception of the tin-plate bran WHEAT SUPPLY EXHAUSTED.

Two Thousand: Guinea stakes, in which | the Derby. favorites met American horses, others were entared for several events. The Prince of Wales, the Duke of Cam- bridge and a large party drove here from Sandringham.this morning and Lord Rose- bery, the Duke of Portland and a host of other notables were present. _. For the Visitors’ Welter Plate, the first / @vent on the programme to-day, Mr. Rich- ard Croker’s u de Gallie and Mr. Michael FE. Dwyer’s Banquet were entered. All the Am horses were heavily handicapped. The conditions of the Trial Plate were as ‘follows; The Two Thousand Guineas Trial Plate of sovereigns, 3-year-olds to carry . 8 stone, pounds; 4-year-olds to carry 10 stone, 1 pound, and 5, 6 and aged horses to carry 10 stone, 4 pounds; the wiriner to be sold for 2,000 sovereigns, if for 1,000 sov- ereigns, allowed 12 pounds; if for. 500 sover- eigns, allowed 24 pounds; if for 200 sover- eigns, allowed 32 pounds; entrance fee, 5 sovereigns, course, the Rowley.-.

Seven horses ran. Mr. H. McCalmont’s Raconteur, a bay colt by St. Simon out of Plaisantiere, is an easy favorite for the Two Thousand Guinea stakes, which its to be run to-morrow, in spite of the fact that he has to meet Lord Rosebery’s Sir Visto, who was formerly considered far superior to Raconteur, who was bought as a yearling for 3,000 guineas and who did indifferently as a 2- year-old. But he has imyroved rapidly and an exciting contest is expected. For the One Thousand Guineas stakes to be run on Thursday only a small field is ex- ted and Mr. Daniel Cooper’s Float, bay lly by Sheen out of Footlight, is regarded as a certain winner. The weather is splen- did and good racing is looked for. CHINN AND FERGUSON. The Turf Congress Rule Does Not Af- fect Their St. Louis Engagement The Fair Association management an- nounced this morning that Messrs. Chinn and Ferguson would officiate as starters at the spring meeting, for the reason that their contracts were executed some time ago, and the embargo rule against breeders officiating as starters, does not go into ef- fect until May 1. The rule specifies that contracts made previous to this date shall not be affected by the rule. The new rule stipulates that no ome interested in the sire or dam of a horse shall start, judge or have any other official connection with a race in which the said horse is a starter. This rule does not prohibit breeders from officiating when they have nothing to do with the horses or their sires or dams. Among the arrivals at the Fair Grounde esterday were the stables of Capt. R. R. ice and Lee Marion, who has just left the service of Chris Smith. Capt. Rice has Chimes and Frances Pope, while Marion has a number of promising-looking 2-year-olds. Racers From Memphis.

Base Ball Notes, St. Louis is now tied for last place with Philadelphia and Louisville. President Young of the League says he has perfect confidence in Umpire Betts. Pittsburg could not touch Breitenstein until he saw the game was won and let down, McCarthy went to the bat six times at 1 gala Monday and made a hit every me. Patsey Donovan, Pittsburg’s rowdy right fielder, should be barred from the game. Bug Holliday, the Cincinnati center fielder, will not be able to resume playing again for two weeks at least. Pitcher Frank Dwyer, who shut out Chi- cago at Cincinnati Monday, is a §8t.° Louis cast-off, Breitenstein made Hawley look like a monkey in yesterday’s game, and he-can re- peat the trick whenever he feels like do- ing it. Roger Connor, Denny Lyons, Joe Quinn, Heine Peitz and Dick Cooley were in the game good and plenty yesterday. Connor takes a notion to bat every now and then and kills the sphere. He pounded out three hits, including two doubles, yes- terday. ; Heine Peitz is entitled to the entire appro- priation President Von der Ahe makes for his backstop department. He does all the catching and should get all the money. Anson has bet Frank McKee $500 even that Chicago will be sixth or better; Frank Robison $150 even that Chicago beats Cleve- land, and J. T, Brush $50 even that Chicago beats out the Cincinnati team. Comiskey has seven left-handed batters on his St. Paul team, and to accommodate them he has arranged his diamond so that the fence crosses the right field foul -line just a little back of first base. This ar- rangement should make home runs easy and frequent for his “south-paw willow-swing- ers.’’ Superstitious people will see something in the fact that the only three games the Browns have won has been when they had little Harry E. Parker acting on the field as mascot. Von der Ahe is thinking of signing Harry to act regularly for the team. Connie Mack has played one game and made a safe hit. That made his percentage 1,000 and makes him the leader in batting. John Ward, the ex-Giant, will captain and 5 et the Uniontown (Pa.) club during une.

Fitzsimmons’ Intention Regarding His Coming Fight With Corbett. Bob Fitzsimmons was interviewed at Cin- cinnati Monday and he talked in the follow- ing interesting manner: “TIT will train myself, as I always do. I will engage a man to rub me down, but I will be my own boss in regard to work. I know what to do, and how to do it. I have been through the mill enough times to know how to fit myself for a contest. I never felt bet- ter in my life than I do now. I feel that I will win with ‘Corbett. I don’t care how soon the fight will take place. The sooner the better. I would just as soon fight on a week's notice as not. One thing sure, if no club will give us a purse, we will fight for e side bet. I hope it won’t come down to that. I want a purse, if I can get one, so the winner will get something for his trouble. “I strike some tough customers on the road sometimes.

There has been no little anxiety on the part.of the Democratic aspirants lest the appointments of the new Judges should not be made in time to enable them to take part in. making this appointment, but this danger has been suarted. The commissions of the new Judges were mailed at noon on Monday, and they are now full-fledged Judges, with the exception of taking the oath, and can justly expect to be called into the conference of Judges on these appointments. It is necessary that the new Jury Commis- sioner shall be designated at an early day, as the work of polling the city for a new jury list — bn begun by May 15 and fin- shed b ug. 15. The prominence of the candidates for this place illustrates how scarce is patronage with St. Louis Democrats just now. The list includes Thomas E. Barrett, ex-Clerk of the House of Delegates; Joseph N. Judge, at present Deputy Clerk in_ the St. Louis Criminal Court; Fielding Mansfield, the resent incumbent; O. F. Guthrie, formerly n the office of Exéise Commissioner Bell; Thaddeus C. Harris, Treasurer of the Demo- cratic City Committee, and Alex_ Lewis, son of the former Marshal of the Court of Appeals. The latter is the only prominent. Republican applicant, it having been con- ceded, since the ¢reation of three new judgeships making the bench of ig that will act on this matter Democratio, t the successor of Mr. Mansfield would be a Democratic worker. Mr. Thad Harris was prominently mer- tioned for a Police Commissioner, but the impression has now become general that neither of these appointments will be made until after the conclusion of the extra ses- friends have urged him to be- Th argue that every as held office weg though an named. The position of Jury Commissioner pays $2,500 a year and is for four years. Agate Friedmann’s Diploma.

A man used to feel pretty poor before he would think of buying on credit—but, bless your soul, they drive up here now in CAR- RIAGES—they come on bicycles—they drop off the street cars— and we stroke our whiskers with pardonable pride as we contem- plate the change we have wrought’ in credit buying. ‘*Tisn't credit—it’s just plein, common DECENOY—it’s the art of know- ing how to be ACCOMMODATING—and good, honest accommo- dation never cost any man «dollar. Get test framed and hang it up where you can see it—it’s the biggest lump of truth you ever clear off the sidewalk trying to tell you that the best way and the easiest way to buy furniture aed carpets is on credit—that the best place to buy them is HEBRE—where credit costs nothing —where credit prices are just as low as any cash’ pricesin the country. Look us rightin the face and tell us that you will come in here and psy s little money once a week oronce a month—there isn’t s wagon around the place that’s big enough to hold what you can buy. ° Some Red-Hot Facts” About Carpets. There isn’t another house on the footstool that makes and lays carpets free of cost. WE DO—always have—always will. We not only make and lay the carpet free of cost, but we make no charge for waste in matching figures. We've got as fine a floorful of carpets as were ever made—every known quality that’s worth having is here. We'll mention just two qualities to give you an idea of the price—Brussels carpet, 50 cents = yard; Ingrain carpet, 35 cents a yard, ; ‘ Furnish the Parlor! Why not get a real nice suit while you are about it? There’s a heap of satisfaction in having things that are nice—and you've got just as good a right to themas anybody’else. You'll find suites here in Silk Damask—Tapestry—Brocatelle and all other fashionable and durable upholsteries. While youare here ask us to show you the two suits in Silk Tapestry—your choise for $22.50. Fine Chamber Suites! Just put your hand on the one you like best and we'll send it right out to your house—there’s no end of room for choice— there are carved ones and plain ones—and the price stops wher- ever yousay. You might look for & month and you’d never find another suite for $13 that will compare with the one we sell at this price—it’s of solid oak—big mirror in the dresser—and it’s worth $18 cash anywhere. Some Other Things. A dining-room never looks really cheerful unless it contains asideboard. We've gotanice little sideboard here that we sell for $9—and right alongside of it isa beauty for §25—a whole lot more of them at all prices clear up to §200. We sell the best quale ity of woven wire springs for $1.75—other people ask §3 for the same thing; 40-pound hair mattresses—sameas sold elsewhere for $12—our price §7. You will find every requisite here forcom- plete housekeeping—even tothe stove. Write outa list of the things you need—see how much it will costto buy them down town for cash—then bring your list here and let us do alittle figuring—the chances are we can save money for you—and you can pay the bill a little at a time—weekly or monthly—no interest to pay—you needn’t even say ‘‘thank you’’—ready for you to-morrow morning. oo + + (OUSE-FURWISHING Co, ‘814%816 N.

The call for cast-off clothing, which usu- ally comes from the St. Louis Provident As- sociation in the fall, is made at this time, when winter clothing is laid off. It ig done because, as @ rule, clothing is received too late in the cold season, and by collecting it now the officers can have it ready as soon as needed. Deserving women will be em- ployed to do the necessary mending in the sewing room of the association. All those who have clothing to give are requested to notify by telephone. the central office, at 1117 Locust street, called for. Christian Bauer Fined $1 00.

A gigantic scheme for the control of the lands bordering on the Mississippi and Mis- souri Rivers, opposite Alton, is brought to light by the foundation of a new Jand syn- dicate. This syndicate will have ih its charge all the eligible manufacturing prop- erty lying in that district, including the little town of La Mothe, and Riverside Park. The papers of incorporation will be filed this week. The syndicate will be strictly a Missouri affair, and will be backed by hundreds of’ thousands of dollars of local capital. That shrewd investor, Hugh Thomp- son, of St. Louis, will represent tke syndi- cate in this city. The aim of the new con- cern is to interest financially one man in each large city. The railroad and river fa- cilities of the land are of the best, and, any improvement of these lands lying, as they do, to the. north of the city, with a portion directly in the city, will aid St. Louis generally. Real estate agents and property owners are t ng an active in- terest in the movement. The leaders of the company are doing their utmost to secure the proposed cotton factory, and are offering a large “‘slice’’ of earth for almost nothing for the location of the establishment. Several deals are being negotiated for fac- tory sites in La Mothe, which will be closed as soon as the land company has been incorporated. At present the persons directly interested in the concern are in- clined to keep the matter quiet. Seventh Street Deal. J. L. Hornsby has closed the purchase of 70% feet of property fronting on Seventh street, on the east side, between Sidney and Lynch streets, from F. J. Hunteth for $16,- 000. The property is admirably located for manufacturing purposes. Just what im- provements Mr. Hornsby will make is not known definitely at present. The considera- tion involved was $16,000. H. Griesedieck’s New Residence. Henry Griesedieck, the brewer, is erect- ing a handsome residence on the north side of Hawthorne boulevard, near Compton avenue, in the Compton Heights tract, to cost. $15,000. The building will be con- structed in the Colonial style of pressed brick and stone. This district is receiving more attention every day, and thus far this spring upwards of $100,000 worth of prop- erty has been sold for buildings and specu- lative purposes. Contracts for new dwell- ings and flats were reported let. Tuesday as follows: To Chas. Henecke, two-story brick stores and flats on Seventeenth street, between propaoe avenue and Wash street, to cost $6,000; to . Darr, a two-story brick dwelling, on’ Old Manchester road, be- tween Kentucky and Wittenberg avenues, to cost $2,800; to A. J. Krumm, a two-story frame dwelling on Lanham avenue, between Hewitt avente and the Missouri Pacific Railroad tracks, to cost $1,800; to Anton Meglitsch, two-story brick flats on Spring avenue, between Lucky street and Gass avenue, to cost $5,000; to P. Langelier, a two- -story brick dwelling on’ Walnut street, between Twentieth and Twenty-first, to cost $2,500 Yore Estate Litigation. The litigation over a portion of the Yore estate, known as the Merchants’ Hotel, a four-story structure on the southwest cor- ner of Twelfth and Olive streets, was set- tled a eg i, transfer of the bullding from th ore estate to the Mississippi Valley ' Trust. Company. Outside parties, who had an interest in the building, de- manded thie. The Yore family was well |. known here years ago, the head of the fam- ily havin boat business before the building of the Eads bridge. The hotel property is very valuable, and at one time was a leading — of the city. Agents’ Reports. The S. T. Rathell Real Estate Co, held its auction of Cook, Page and Finney avenues property Monday.

The Citizens’ Smoke Abatement Associa- tion held its annual meeting at the Mercan- tile Club Tuesday afternoon. The import- ant events in the order of business were the report of the Executive Committee and the election of officers. The report detailed 109 convictions in the police courts and five in the Court of Crim- inal Correction for violation of the smoke ordinance during the year ending April 1. The warnings issued numbered 3,025 and special letters 1,000. Warnings and letters have always been sent to offenders, and sometimes have obviated the necessity for prosecution. The report also stated that a census of boiler plants was made during the year, and it showed that few boilers were without abatement attachments, but many engineers and firemen neglected to use them. The report stated that tighter lines should be drawn by the city authorities in the en- forcement of the abatement law. Although it absolutely forbids pas smoke, the Pres- ident of the Board of Public Improvements, who is the prosecutor under the law, re- fuses to sign informations unless the of- fensive smoke issued for thirty minutes in a 100 minute test. The Executive Commit- fos thought that the period: should be re- duced to fifteen minutes. The expenses for the year exceeded the sgrcong for there was a balance of $3,000 at the beginning of 1894, and there is,only $1,500 on hand now.

We produce the. finest Ready-to-Wear Clothing in America. Men are as proud in men- tioning the fact that their Suits are from BROWNING-KINQ’S as they are of having them made at the tailor’s. _ The only difference is you probably get of us somethin that is more in accord with your tastes, for you ‘see the suit on and know how it looks, and with the tailor you have to guess at it. Another thing you can, and likely do, inci- dentally mention the $20 or $25 you saved in buying from us, APPROPRIATENESS To use is another thing.
