Lozier and Maffitt Made the Fight. J ’ MAFFITT AND ED BUTLER. The State Committee Chairman Signed the Boss Blacksmith’s Name to a Demand for Patronage. When the State Committee adjourned at 1:30 p. m. last Saturday eleven of the fifteen members had expressed themselves as ready to vote for an early convention. The four members opposing were Chairman Maffitt, Dr. Lutz, representing Louis Steuver, Mr. Davis and Dr. Brown. The final vote, as is well known, stood 10 to 5 against a con- vention. The fight all day long was waged between Chairman Naffitt and Robert E. Lozier, representing the Second. District. The accounts of trustworthy spectators are to the effect that Lozier had his war paint on from the start—or at least after he had crossed the room to Executive Chairman Cook and had dis- sc gg that Mr, Cook had thrown up both ands. The most intense feeling between Chair- man Maffitt and Mr. Lozier came when after the afternoon recess Mr. Lozier arose and alluded to a former caucus held in the same room, No. 84, of the Southern, last year after the Kansas City conven- tion, at which Sam B. Cook was deposed as retary and Will J. Zevely was elected in his place. When Mr. Lozier discovered that the sentiment of the committee was unguéstionably against a convention he arose and stated that this room seemed to be a favorite with the Democratic State Committee, that it was here less than a 8 ago that the deposal of Mr. Sam B. ook as Secretary of the State Commit- tee was effected and Mr. W. J. Zevely was installed in his place, and he moved that the Secretary of the Committee, Will J. Zevely, be instructed to go at once to Jefferson City and arrange for the execution of first-class oil portraits of Gov. Stone, Secretary Leseuer, Auditor Seibert and Treasurer Stephens, and that the same brought to Room & of the Southern Hotel and proper hung in conspicuous places upon the walls of Room S, with the inscrip- tion underneath in large red letters: The Last of the Line.“ For,“ said Mr. Lozier, “shoyld this com- mittee to-night refuse to call this convention the youngest Democrat in Missouri will not live to . a Democrat elected to a State 0 n * This brought Chairman Maffitt to his feet n. He taunted Mr. Lozier with being a creature of the Francis-Maffitt faction and said to him that he would have Mr. Lozier remember that he owed to this faction his election as Assistant Secretary of the Sen- ate of the Thirty-eighth Missouri Assem- bly. ir. Lozier replied that he was not aware that he owed his election to this high and remunerative office to the good influences of Messrs. Maffitt and Francis; and he took this, the first occasion after receiving no- tice of such obligation, to publicly and in the presence of the committee, acknowledge his gratitude for such influence, but he was of the impression he owed his selection to fill this high office not so much to the good offices of Francis and Maffitt as to the eneral recognition by the members.of the enate of his services to the party. Again Mr. Maffitt stood up and then and there delivered himself of this remarkable declaration: Jam the man who caused your election to that position. I sent to Senator Lancas- ter and Senator Morrissey the demand for our election and signed it in the name of d Butler.“ Mr. Lozier again and very effusively thanked Mr. Maffitt for his interposition. There were other and more ludicroug in- cidents in connection with this meeting. One of the most characteristic was precip- itated by the inquiry of Chairman Maffitt whether the convention, if called, would be empowered to elect a new committee. This inquiry being answered affirmatively by ‘several of the anti- convention members, Mr. Johh C. Roberts, the newest and least experienced member of the committee, who had at the morning session declared him- self emphatically in favor of a convention, arose and said: “Well, if they are going to turn us out of office, I shall most emph ly vote against the convention.“ had part of the ‘ „Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen of the par me agp have heard here to-day many singular ons urged against the call of a convention; but I must confess that this is the most unique reason I ever heard urged nst similar action by the party.

Mr. Lozier Was in favor of the call of a convention by the committee for the official character which would be imparted by such call and without refer- ence to any action the convention — take. He believed that the people demanded the convention and that their will should command the highest respect of the State organization of the party. READY AT SPRINGFIELD. Delegates to the Silver Convention Are Arriving To-Day. Special to The Post-Dispatch. SPRINGFIELD, In., June 4.—Very few of the delegates to the Democratic State Mone- tary Convention are now on the ground. It is expected, however, that hundreds will ar- rive on the afternoon train. Among the rominent Democrats now here are Hon. A. Hunter of. Paris, ex-Congressman-at- large; George Scoles of Chicago and Den- ap George Scoles of Chicago and Dennis J. Hogan of Geneva. H. E. Taubenneck, one of the famous dig three“ of the sena- torial fight of 1891, and now Chairman of the nation committee of the People’s party, W n here this morning. He was not in- clined to be talkative. ‘‘The Democrats are trying to steal our platform,“ said he, and I am here to object. The People’s party is the only simon-pure silver party.“ Men who have attended conventions, Dem- ocratic and Republican, in this city for the last twenty-five years, predict.a small at- tendance to-morrow. On the other hand, Chairman Hinrichsen of the Democratic State Central Committee is still confident ! that the convention will be a glorious suc- cess. The fact that few people are here does not disturb him. He says that there are no candidates to vote for, and it would be use- less for delegates to cone a day or two in advance of the convention. He does not ex- pect the large arrivals to begin before this evening. Farmers all over the State are busy with crops and they want to lose as little time as possible. Then, the weather in Springfield is intensely hot, and delegates do not wish to spend any more time in crowded hotels than they have to. ö The hotels have all engaged in advance all the rooms they have, and some of them have nothing but cots in the halls left. GROWING IN THE EAST. Feeling in Favor of the White Metal : Is Increasing. , Dr. D. H. Shields of Hannibal, Mo., for- merly Chairman of the Democratic State Central Committee, is in the city. Dr. Shields, speaking of the free silver senti- ment, said that while it was admittedly overwhelming in the West, it was — stronger in the East than was generally supposed. In March,“ he said, “I was in Boston at the meeting of the Grand Lodge of the A. O. U. W. There were a great many people from Maine there, and I was much surprised to find that the great ma- jority of them, outside of the bankers and money lenders, were even then for free sil- ver, and the agitation had not then reached anything like the present proportions. My experience was that the men engaged in the ordinary vocations were strongly for free silver, and they are the great majority. It would not surprise me at all to see a land- slide in some of the Eastern States, where it is least expected, if the feeling continues to grow.“ GERMANY WANTS IT. All the States but Wurtemberg Would Like a Monetary Conference. Special to The Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, June 4.—The World this morning prints the following from Rome: To the Editor of the World. ROME, June 3.— I regret that I cannot reply to your question. “SIEDNEY SONNONI, „Minister of the Italian Treasury.“ The question was that addressed to the Minister of Finance of the great powers, asking if they favored an international con- ference on silver, replies to which were published Sunday. Since the reply from Germany was re- ceived it has been learned that all the twenty-six States forming the German Em- pire have given consent to the proposition to call an international monetary conference, except the Kingdom of Wurtemberg, which insists upon a gold standard. Moultrie County Delegates. Special to The Post-Dispatch. SULLIVAN, III., June 4.—The Moultrie County convention at Sullivan selected Ru- tus Huff, Int Stanley, E. T. Springer, B. A. Silver and John D. Purvis as delegates to the Springfield convention Wednesday. The convention declared for the free coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1, and so instruct- ed the delegation.

George Dashman Meets the Fate Due All Libertines. A MIRACLE. Physicians at IF HE RECOVERS. the Hospital Consider His Chances of the Slightest and Hold Out No Hope. It’s a long lane that has no turning. George Dashman,,the notorious libertine, who has escaped the clutches of the law and the vengeancé of outraged woman- hood for many a long day, was brought up with a short turn Monday afternoon. GEORGE DASHMAN. As told in the 6 o’clock edition of the Post- Dispatch, Mrs. Susie Foster of 2906 Lincoln avenue put four bullets into him. The shooting occurred in the rear of 3223A Franklin avenue, where Dashman, though a married man, has been living with Mrs. Foster’s daughter. Only one of the bullets touched a vital spot, and society may not be permanently relieved of Dashman, though City Hospi- tal re are slim. But rts are that his chances of recov Mrs. Foster meant well, according to her light. There was hate behind the hand that sped the bullets on their murderous errand and joy in her as she saw them enter her victim’s body. Ten minutes after the shooting Mrs. Fos- ter was seen by a Post-Dispatch reporter. Have I fixed him good?’’ was her anxious query. She was excited and blasphemous in her denunciation of Dashman. the laugh to poor Laura Fitts’ He gave mother. when he walked out of court, but he had a different look on his face when I put the bullets into him. Oh! I fixed my dog!“ she screamed, and went off into a hysteri- cal laugh. The cause of the shooting, as learned from the interview, was Mrs. Foster’s hate for Dashman, because of his power over her daughter. Foster-Miller, Statement, was This woman, Mrs. Edna according to her mother’s the mistress of a promi- nent business man, but was infatuated with Dashman, and was literally support- ing him with the wages of her sin. Her mother objected to the latter arrangement, and had frequent quarrels with Dashman. The hate that grew day by day terminated in her sensational attempt to take his life. Dashman knew that his life was in dan- ger. He intended leaving town night with the Miller woman.

SOMERSET Poe A The State Supreme Court Establishes an Important Ruling. 1 to The Post-Dispatch. JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., June 4—The Supreme Court to-day established an im- portant ruling in regard to life and accident insurance policies. In the suit of Mead- ows against the Mutual Life Insurance Company of Cglifornia,’ for $5,000 insurance, it is held that the insured person need only use due diligence to prevent accident or death, and that in absence of tive evi- dence to the contrary, the policy must be paid. The court says that a multiplicity of conditions exempting companies from liability for accidents of almost every con- ceivable character, is contrary to equitable DENIAL OF A POOL, Brewers Say There Is no Truth in the Allegation of a Combine. The reported re-establishment of the pool between .the syndicate and independent breweries is denied at the office of the St. Louis Brewing Association. The meeting at which the pool is said to have been re-established took place, it is alleged, within & week, yet Ellis Wain- wright, the only officer who would be au- thorized to enter into any such agreement, has been for nearly three weeks in the White Mountains. Mr. Phil Stock, secreta- ry of the St. Louis Brewing Association, has also been away ten days. He is on his way to Europe. The syndicate brewery interests claim there is no probability of the forma- tion of a pool and that there is a constant fight on between themselves and the inde- pendent brewers for customers. - SHOT BY SOCIALISTS.

UNPRECEDENTED. The Hot Spell Just Ended is Without a Parallel. WASHINGTON, June 4—The Weather Bureau furnishes a special bulletin to the press on the heated term. It says: The period of the extreme hot weather that has prevailed over the entire eastern portions. of the United States during the past week has been remarkable for its length and for the high temperature occurring, the latter in many instances exceeding any previously recorded by the Weather Bureau duri the period between the 20th of May and the 10th of June. There is a table given showing the number of days the temperature rose to or above 90 during the w ending June 8 at variqus stations, together with the highest tempera- ture at each.

At thirteen other points, however, it registered. over 90 on six days of the week, Detroit, Toledo, Washington, Pittsburg and Louisville be- ing among the number. At Philadelphia, Chicago, Baltimore, Indfanapo Cincin- ati and ten other stations, or fifteen in all, the mercu was above 90 for days of the w New York, Milwaukee, Rochester and ten other cities had it over 90 for four days; Cleveland and Charleston had it that high for three days, rthfield and Marquette for two seven had it 95, * tg Pe grees er reins 98 The limit here Cc t. in Chicago, 1 other stations, while New Yor only one degree less, and Pi Philadelphia had it two than St. Louls, the mercury degrees there.

At ten other places besides Philadelphia the ther- mometer registered 98 degrees, Washing- ton and Baltimore being among the num- ber. Says the bulletin: “In marked contrast to this record of extreme heat is the fact that between the 13th and 18th of May at the greater number of stations in the list occurred the coldest weather on record for the month of May, with a succession of heavy frosts throughont the central and northern half of the country east of the Rocky Mountains.” HEAT AND DROUTH. They Are Doing Great Damage to Crops in Illinois. CHICAGO, June 4.—The past week has gone to the opposite extreme from the week preceeding, and crops have struggied under a heat averaging above 8 deg., which is from 12 to 15 degs. above the normal temperature. The rainfall has been very acarce. Only northwest counties have been favored sufficiently, and all east, central and southern counties were practically dry, hence the average for the State was but a sprinkle. The sky was nearly cloudless during the entire week, and maximum tem- perature extremely high and the wind boisterous, Where rain fell vegetation is growing finely and small grains and mead- Ows are giving excellent promise, and corn, tatoes, gardens and pastures are. much . Where rain is lacking, however, and that is much the largest portion of the State, small grains and meadows, gardens and potatoes are suffering from the heat and drought. Wheat is receiving less dam- age from chinch bugs than previously, but rust has developed and with the Hessian fly is causing damage. Oats are heading short and are less promising. Rye is short and the heads poorly filled. The fruit pros- pect is still excellent in the southern coun- ties, as is also the prospect for tree fruits in the central counties. Cherries are be- ing marketed in the southern counties and ripening fast in the central. A general rain would, without doubt,materially ch Son Sea but the hay crop will shor .

The revised ordinance merely continued those old provisions in foree. By the ex- press terms of every revised ordinance, since revisions were required by the char- ter, the provisions of the revision have been declared to be a continuance of old —— — where they are the same and ave been expressly declared not to be new enactments. To say that my revision ought to have repealed Mr. Sulltvan's revision, where the provisions of the former were merely a continuance of the provisicns of the latter ordinance is a legal absurdity. Such a conclusion would have the revision contradict itself. But much concern is expressed because the amendatory features of the revision do not repeal the contradictory provisions of the ‘ordinance of 1887. I say they do, be- cause of what is called my “blanket” pro- vision. But a resort to that is not necessa- ry. I assert that every amendatory feature reported by me will be found to have de- pended upon an ordinance which by express designation of section, article and chapter, repealed or struck out an existing provision of the ordinance of 1887. I saw then no reason, I see now no reason for repealing again that which had already been repealed. If, to illustrate, sec. 650 of the Revision of 1887 h been amended by an ordinance adopted in 1889, which repealed the section and substituted something else for it. sec. 650 certainly had been repealed when I came to revise. When I reported the amended section as the existing section I reported the legal and actual fact. I was lawyer enough to abstain from saying in some other sec- tion that sec. 650 of Revised Ordinance 14,000 is hereby repealed. It was already as dead as the lawmakers could make it. In conclusion, permit me to set at rest another feature of this mighty controversy. The revision for which I was responsible was completed in May, 1891. Mr. Arnstein introduced it as the Revised Ordinance shortly after its acceptance by the Council. This ordinance, now the Revised Ordi- nance of 1892, did not become a law until April 7, 1898. Persons seeking to make cap- ital for themselves have sedulously con- cealed this fact and have sought to hold me responsible for the long delay in legislation. But no one with a ray of sense can be mis. led on this propoaition. In August, 1892 the ordinance was enacted which provided for additional dutſes of the revisor and for the publication of the ordinance in book form, if it ever became a law. From May, 1891, or thereabouts, to April, 1893, the ordi- hance was pending in the Assembly. Dur- ing this time many features were added to the ordinance by way of amendments to the ordinance of 1887 and, in some respects, the new ordinance itself was amended. These changes included those which, upon the appearance of the volume whose printing I supervised, were declared to endanger the very foundations of municipal existence. I had no more to do with them than with the Pragmatic Sanction of Charles the Sixth. When they were incorporated in the re- vised ordinanct’”” by the Assembly and ap- parts of e revised ordinance. The very head and Front of my offending had this ex- tent—no more. I did not make the law. My 2 required me to publish it. This much I Your article refers to another matter which it seems to me is wholly misunder- stood. Certain clerks are said to be shorn of $25 per month salary because Mayor Noonan vetoed an ordinance which provided an in- crease. This vetoed ordinance, it is agsert- ed, I incorporated in my revision. I did nothing of the kind. There was nothing of the sort in my revision. But the clerks are entitled to their increase of pay, and have been entitled since the ordinance of April 7, 18983, became a law. If Mayor Noonan ve- toed the ordinance amendatory of the orig- inal provision, the Assembly must have passed it over the veto, or passed it in some way, because the amendatory provision is in the ordinance approved by Mayor Walbridge April 7, 1893. My publication is based throughout upon the official copy of the approved ordinance. I beg to express regret immo corde, that my revision does not meet the expectations of the City Hall officials, and that they do not hesitate to say 80.“ So, at least, you say. But I beg to assure the gentlemen whose expectations have not been met that they make war upon the Assembly which enacted, and the Mayor, who approved, the bill. Furthermore, 1 did not revise the or- dinances to meet their expectations. I did this work according to my own ideas and was approved in my result by the City Coun- cil. In the matter of publication, 1 assert that the work has been Well done. So the President of the Council has certified. I as- sert, furthermore, that for the first time in the course of the revision the index affords a fair de of information as to the text of the ordinance. And now, Messrs Editors, as your paper has exploited the last expose of the infirmities of the much abused re- vision, kindly give place to this attempted rehabilitation, | CHESTER H. KRUM.

Samuel Bowman, who has @harge of the West End Hotel, Vandeventer and Bell avenues, bee that the building is to be remodeled and made strictly modern. Although the structure was erected but two years ago, its present owner is not satisfied with the construction of the first floor, and other portions of the house. C. Forster, the brewer, bought the prop- erty a month ago. He has decided to ex- pend between $20,000 and $40,000 upon the structure. The rotunda will be lined with onyx. The now magnificent dining and banquet hall will also be trimmed with onyx with crystal chandeliers and marble floor- ing. The halls throughout the hotel will be remodeled and marble, granite and onyx used in ornamentation. When completed the banquet hall will be the finest in St. Louis. New boilers, etc., will also be constructed, and as Mr. Forster puts it, you won't know it after I get through.”’ The demand r accommodations in the Western hotels has prompted Mr. Forster to take the steps. As it is now the building is one of the finest in the West End. It cost without the furnishings, $175,000 when erect- ed. The furnishings are valued at 330,000. Architects Beinke and Wees drew the plans of the buildings. The improvements will be completed in October. MERAMEC HIGHLANDS. Improvements to Cost Hundreds of Thousands Already Under Way. Improvements which will cost hundreds of thousands of dollars have been com- menced at Meramec Highlands, The con- tract was closed over a month ago, and the agreement was to push the work as rapidly as possible. The result is that al- most 33,000 front feet of ground has been improved. with telford streets, granitoid walks, sewer and water mains. he mag- nificent hotel, the Highlands Inn, has been enlarged and remodeled. A large number of cottages have been erected for the ac- commodation of families who do not wish to stop at the hotel, and many other im- provements have been made. Meramec Highlands include 488 acres of high, picturesque land, overlooking the beautiful Meramec Valley. The Nicholls- Ritter Financial and Realty Co., which has control of the-4ract, announce that they will sell hundreds of building lots in this suburb at terms to suit purchasers. Every purchaser of a lot will be made a stock- holder in the Meramec Highlands Co. The railroad facilities between the little suburb and St. Louis are of the best, the St. Lovis & San Francisco and the Missouri Pacific roads passing through the place. In the near future an electric road to connect with the Scullin blue ¢ars at Sarah street and King’s highway, will be operated to the Highlands. It will be known as the Kirk- wood and Meramec road. The franchise has already been granted, and the company back of it hopes to have the road in operation before winter sets in. A Big Lease Closed. Part of the present home of the Sim- mons Hardware Co., Ninth and Washington avenue, soon to be vacated by that firm for its new quarters in the Cupples’ block, has been leased to the Wear-Boogher Dry Goods Co.

Polished Off the Job Himself. John Harbacek’s house, 2208 Montana st., caught flre twice Monday night. Some mysterious circumstances surround the first fire. Harbacek accidentally caused the sec- ong blaze. Monday evening Harbacek and his fam- ily visited a relative. About 9 o’clock a small boy noticed a blaze in the house. He ‘notified an officer who, with the assistance of neighbors, #xti the flames be- fore much damage had been done. Before leavin is home Harbacek says he extinguished the lamp and took great care to see that the kitchen fire was out. Shortly after 12 o’clock Harbacek returned, and lighting the kerosene lamp. placed it on the mantel in the kitchen. As he set it down it exploded, filling the room with flames. The fire was only extinguished af- ter a damage of several hundred dollars had been done. The house is insured for $1,300, and the furniture for $400. Harbacek thinks the house was set on fire, but has no idea who did it. WONDERFUL BARGAINS IN Men’s Underwear and Half Hose.

Barnum & Bailey’s Great Show Draws Enormous Crowds. Everybody and his girl was at the “great- est show 6n earth’’ Monday night, although the first night at a circus is not the most popular, especially just after a rain and wind storm, The crowd began to pour into the big tent immediately upon the opening of the doors at 7 o’clock, and the arrivals continued. until. 8:30, after the performance had. betün in the big tent with three rings and two tents. There was much to be seen before that in the menagerie and ethnological congress, and the crowd took care to see it. The dwarfs.from Africa, the giant tribes, the Arabs and Zulus, and all the peculiar feat- ures of the congress which, since ““Barnum’”’ was last here, has become a leading feat- ure among the many with which the attrac- tion is replete, commanded their fair share of astonishment, and when at length the riders, acrobats and contortionists began the exhibitions of their skill the enthusiasm of the audience Became unbounded. As the Irishman said, one wou!d have to look two ways for Sunday to see all that was to be seen, and while the audience at one end of the pavilion was applauding some particularly startling feature an interrup- tion of applause from the other end would distract their attention ‘to another ring. The crowd went wild over the double bare- back performance of the Meers Sisters and the wonderful dancing horse, a magnifi- cent black, which, under the horsemanship of John O’Brien, executed hornpipe, jigs, highland flings and about everything else in perfect time with the music, created a sensation. The Flying Dillons, Willie Showles, Wm. DeMott and Josie Ashton, proved leading attractions. One of the features is the skirt dance on horseback by Miss Ouicka Meers, in which the equestrienne soars from the horse’s back around the arena, and another, Trilby on horseback, executed by Miss Rosie Meers, in which the character changes are accomplished on horseback under the mes- meric influencé of Svengali, the ringmaster. If the advanced woman could have seen the “lady ringmaster,“ she would have turned green with envy. She wore a rich “bloomer” suit of dark-blue velvet, that would have looked especially attractive on a bicycle, and she shared honors with Miss Mathews, the lady clown. ALTON NEWS.

Lozier, of the Second District, was one of the few members of the State Committee who had the manli- ness to throw off the yoke of the bosses and voice the sentiments of his constitu- ents at the meeting on Saturday. It was Mr. Lozier who made the fight in the committee in favor of a convention, and — from all accounts that have leaked out about the secret star chamber proceed ings, he did it courageously and persist- ently. ; In an interview published elsewhere Mr. Lodier reiterates a statement made by him yesterday to a reporter that be- fore the committee adjourned to go to the horse race eleven mem out of fifteen had declared that the le they represented desired a State convention, and that they felt it necessary as repre- sentatives of the people to vote for it. When the committee reassembled five hours Mater, after having witnessed the horse race, six of these members had changed their minds and voted with the St. Louis contingent against a conven- tion. What effected this change of view? The suggestion has been thrown out by apologists for the committee’s action that “business men” saw the committee at the horse race and convinced them of the undesirableness of a convention. This is a very lame apology at best. Are the rural members of a State Committee to do what their own constituents want, or are they to take their orders from the business men of St. Louis? If so, the business men of St. Louis should be al- lowed to name the State Committée, so that responsibility for its action would rest upon them, and not upon the people whom the State Committeemen are sup- posed to represent, but whose wishes they flout and whose interests they be- tray. . But Mr. Lozier, in the interview pub- lished elsewhere, completely discredits this apology. He says business men did not persuade the committeemen at the Fair Grounds, and that the reason for the change of view must be sought else- where. . What was it? So far as the evidence shows, it was the horse race. Are Mis-+ gouri Democrats in the mood to permit the question as to whether or not they shall meet in State Convention to express their views on a great and vital question of party policy to be determined by a horse race? Shall the fact that the Chair- man of the State Committee is also presi- dent of a jockey club that provides horse races for the amusement of the public, be a more potent factor in Missouri politics than the wishes and the interests of the great masses of voters who do not attend horse races? We think not. In spite of that horse race and the strange change of view which it wrought in the minds of State committeemen, the Democrats of Mis- souri will find a way of getting together and proclaiming their views on the money question. x THE WAY TO GET BIMETALLISN. The most sensible word on the bimetal- lic question which has come from a New York Democrat was given in an inter- view in yesterday’s Post-Dispatch by Frederic R. Coudert, the legal repre- sentative of the French Government in this country. Mr. Coudert advances two propositions of the first importance in determining the ceurse of the United States regarding the free coinage of silver. He asserts that bimetallism would be the greatest boon in finance the world has ever re- ceived. He further avers that the United 1 SBtates can force the Nations of Burppe . o come to @ bimetallic basis by under- gr N é : : — 3 7 * 5 ~All business or news letters or telegrams | world ever received and that Burope will . bimetallism.

In asserting that bimetallism - would be the greatest financial boon the | be forced to go to a bimetallic basis whenever the United States remonetizes silver he places himself on the same plat- form with the bimetallists. He knocks out the gold monometallists and the in- ternational bimetallists at one blow. To seek the great boon of bimetallism by waiting and begging for the consent of European financiers is hopeless. The New York Evening Post, the leading gold monometallic organ, admits that the plan is a will o' the wisp.“ a “dodge,” a “pretty toy to amuse certain restless minds and keep them out of mischief,” But Mr. Coud points out how we can quickly and certainly secure not only a great boon for the people of the United States but for the world by international the free coinage of silver. Europe will not permit herself to be ruined. es — A DEAD-WEIGHT COMMITTEE. The approval of the new election law by the Governor assures to St. Louis and Kansas City the opportunity to puri- fy their elections. It enables the people of these cities to make a complete change of methods and transfer the control of election machinery from the political thugs to reputable citizens. This impending change of methods em- phasizes the necessity of a thorough re- organization of the Democratic party in this city. Under the old election laws and the old methods of conducting and carrying elections there may have been a fancieg need of thugs, ballot-box stuf- fers, political saloon-keepers, ward bosses and other experts in political fine work on the City Central Committee, but the new law puts an end to their usefulness. In order to win elections hereafter the Democratic party of St. Louis must ap- peal to the honest and progressive ele- ments of the people. It must appeal to the sentiments and aspirations of good citizenship. It must win on principle and by merit. To attempt this under the leadership and control of the politi- cal hoodlums who dominate the City Cen- tral Committee would be a travesty on practical politics. The committee is a dead weight. Under conditions which made the chief qualifications of the committee most valuable the party has been led to dis- aster. Under new conditions which ren- der political thuggery and thimble-rig- ging useless the same leadership will bring it to destruction. The St. Louis Democracy confronts the fact that the future of the local party is hopeless with its present organization. What will the St. Louis Democrats do about it? wT — _” * „„ — CHIEF SWINGLEY’S AXE. While Chief Swingley protests that his removals and appointments in the Fire Department are not governed by politi- cal considerations, the axe strikes none but Democratic heads agd none but Re- publicans fill the vacancies or gain pro- motions. é No charges have been made against As- sistant Chiefs Hester and Finnerty. Both have records of honorable service. Yet both have been removed and Repub- licans. put in their places. Acting As- sistant Chief Walsh has been removed to make room for a Republican. Four men in the ranks known tq be Democrats have been dismissed and six men known to be Republicans have been promoted. It is possible that Chief Swingley has found in the Republican party a man as brave as Mike“ Hester—he could find no braver man—and one better fitted for Assistant Chief, with more experience as a fire-fighter. It is possible that Mr. Swingley knows some good reason for dismissing Tom“ Finnerty that no one else has discovered. It is possible that none but Democratic firemen drink or are inefficient. It is possible that there are no fit men for the Fire Department outside of the G. O. P. All these things are possibilities, but if Mr. -Swingley continually protests from now until the end of his term he will not convince the people that they are actualities. The people are not fools, They know what facts mean and they know that when Swingley fires a lot of Democrats and puts in a lot of Republi- cans he is not working with an eye single to the good of the Department. “Actions speak louder than words,” and whatever fair words Chief Swingley may utter his actions point to the reor- ganization of the Fire Department as a part of the Walbridge machine and to in- creasing its effectiveness not at fires but at the polls. 8 — — POLITICAL PHARISEES. ~ One of the biographers of the late Sec- retary Gresham recalis the fact that he had the courage while still a Republican to denounce the Blocks of Five bribery in his own party.

It is now claimed that he was addicted to a gross indulgence in intoxicating liquors and to most revolt- ing practices. The helpless women in his charge, it is alleged, were subjected to indignities almost beyond belief. One wom- an was stripped naked in a tent by Clif according to the charges, and given an ol rubber coat, open in front and behind and made to walk across the camp ground with her nakedness exposed to all. Two women were placed in a shed, without wearing apparel, it is averred, while men peered through the cracks and jeered at them.

CINCINNATI, O., June 4—Arnold Kiely, a St. Louis clothing salesman, was married last night to Miss Sophie Friedkin, Rev. Fingelstein officiating. The couple are known as uncle and niece. Upon this ac- count considerable trouble was experienced in obtaining a license, the groom, however, succeeding in securing the document upon his statement that, although they had been known as being related to each other, the bride is the daughter of his sister's husband by a former marriage, and there- fore no blood relation to him. There are some interesting complications in the af- fair, however, as Kiely's children will be the children of their uncle, and he is a son-in-law of his brother-in-law. There is no Arnold Kiely given in the St. Louis Directory. CONVICTED vF MURDER. Result of the Trial of Attorney James S. Davenport. Special to The Post-Dispatch. FORT SMITH, Ark., June 4—James 8.

HARWICH, June 4.—The regattas of the Royal Harwich Yacht Club was continued to-day with races over-the same courses as yesterday. For the yachts over forty tons the course was thirty-seven miles long and for the twenty-raters the course was twen- ty-two miles long. The Prince of Wales Britannia crossed the Neg line half a minute ahead of Mr. A. B. Walker’s Ailsa. The wind was light. Mr. Howard Gould’s Niagara had the weather berth in the start of the smaller achts and she also had the best of it at e beginning of the race and led Prince Batthy-Stratiman’s Stephanie and Lord Dunraven’s Audrey by two lengths. Leav- ing the river the Niagara had nearly doubted that distance in the lead and looked like a winner. THE RELAY RACE. Reds and Blue Start From Chicago , for New York To-Morrow. To-morrow the great Chicago-New York rélay bicycle race will start from the Win- dy City and it is scheduled to end in New York June 8 In organizing this relay, a departure was made in establishing a se- ries of races, distinguished from each other by the colors blue“ and red,“ that are worn by the riders, and also the mate- rial of the pouches which will hold the two messages. One will be dispatched by the Postmaster of Chicago to the Postmaster in New York, and the other sent by Gen. Ruger to Gen. Nelson A. Miles, command- ing the Eastern Division of the United States Army. Which will win is a prob- lem too deep to answer now, but one thin sure, the men who ride on both sides wi lose little time and the winners must ride all the way. Each rider will wear a badge of the color, red or blue, for the side on which he rides—the blue for the military and the red for the postal service. It will require over 500 riders and substitutes to carry the mes es. This is more starters than were ever in a race before. Complete reports will be published by the daily pa- pers along the line that are associated in the control of the relay. — — STRAIGHTENED OUT.

TORTURING DISFIGURING SKIN DISEASES Instantly RELIEVED 1 ö c CURE are é Grand Stand and Course Pro- posed in the Fair Grounds. DIRECTORS gether With Its Inaccessibility Has Stirred Up Wheelmen. The complications in the Pastime Athletic Club which have brought about the tempo- rary and probably the permanent closing of the track at De Hodiamont, have stirred up cyclists to the necessity of having a new track established at @ more convenient point, and Fair Grounds officials are now considering the advisability of building a one-third mile course in the inclosure where the deer park was situated. The Pastime track is one of the finest in this section of the country. and the club has never gtinted itself in the matter of improve- ments upon it. Only this spring several hundreds of dollars were spent in benking the upper turn and placing a new surface upon the entire course. The one great draw- back, however, has been the inaccessibility and e time consumed in reaching it, and that has tended to keep the attendance down.. People have refused to take the long ride after one experience. Mr. Robert Aull will lay the proposition to build a track in the Fair Grounds before the directors as soon as the races are over and while it is by no means certain that favorable action will be taken, the Fair Grounds Association is in position to control all cycle races held in this city should it de- cide to put up the grandstand and track. The Associated Cycling Clubs have been ne- gotiating with Secretary Gwynn fcr some time with a view to having a cycle track within the mile track, but this was found impossible, and the only solution was a separate grandstand and third-mile course. When the Pastimes felt that the main- tenance of the track at De Holamont was too burdensome an informal proposition was made to Associated Cycling Clubs to take it and run it: but as the tender was not made in an official manner the A, C. G have never taken the matter up. In the meantime racing men are suffering for the want of a track to train upon, since the P. A. C. track has been closed, and efforts are being made to have special ar. rangements for St. Louis racing men so —— they may not have to leave the city to train, MORE ENTRIES. Twenty More Men Decide to Ride in the Road Race. Secretary Laing of the Forest Park Road Race Association yesterday received twenty more entries for the fifth annual event, which takes place next Saturday. They are as follows: „Louis Cycling Club—C. C. Weaver, . Fox, Bud Bersch, O. K. Bovard, W. P. A. C.—Louis Coburn, David Coburn, Jr.; H. A. Tatum, R. J. Leacock, L. M. Rum- sey, Jr. Victor Cycling Club—Jas. H. Little, B. C. orter. South Side Cycle Club—E. A. Grath. V. M. C. A. Cycling Club—R. L. Miller. Kansas City Cyclists—Henry W Unattached— C. . Newman, David * Crofton, Albert Ernst, C. A. Jordan, Roy Dunn. This brings the total number of entries up to eighty-nine. The scratch men will probably be A. G. Harding of the St. Louis Cycling Club, E. A. Grath of the South Side Cycle Club, W. W. Hamilton of the Denver Wheel Club, P. S. O'Connor of the Press Cycling Club, Buffalo, N. Y., and C. H. Peck and Tracy Holmes of the Chicago Cycling Club, but it would not be an entire surprise to see the Post-Dispatch diamond time medal won outside of the scratch men and some of the riders on the one and two minute mark will make the best of them scratch gravel to keep up with them, let alone ern them, The prizes will be distributed at the Mis- souri Railway Co.’s pavilion at 6 o’clock the evening of the race. * BIG SPECIAL RACE. Suggestions for a Great Sweepstakes Over the Handicap Route. Latonia is now in the field for the pro- posed special race between Clifford and Henry of Navarre and the Fair Associa tion should make every effort to close a deal for the event at once. Charley Carmichael, the owner of Cash Day, has expressed his willingness to enter the great son of Strath- more in any big race that may be arranged for the cracks and Jimmy McCormick, Wal- baum’s trainer, writes Judge Burke that he will come here with Lamplighter. Fred Foster, the owner of Dr. Rice, told a Post-Dispatch representative yesterday that he would willingly start the great son of Onondaga in a special sweepstakes over the handicap route, one and one-quarter miles, providing beaten horses were given a suit- able weight allowance. „would like to see the race run about the last Saturday of the meeting,” said Fred. “That would give us time to get our horses in condition. “The association could well afford to add from $5,000 to $10,000 for the race and the sweepstakes should be from $500 ,000. The scale of weights, with an allowance for beaten horses, should give everyone an ual chance. If this race is arranged, I believe that Ramapo, Rubicon, Lamplighter, Yo Tambien, Ray S. or Halma, Henry of Navarre, The Commoner, Clifford, Cash Day, Faraday and Ducat, the greatest handicap horses on the American turf would be ready to run for the money.” FRED FOSTER’S FARM. The Turfnlan Purchases a Place Near Madison for $21,700. Fred Foster, the famous turfman, is a St. Louisan sure enough now, having just purchased the Simon Farm of 120 acres, three miles from this city, near the Madison race track, for $21,700. Foster purchased the farm about noon yesterday and hurried ‘across the river to the Fair Grounds, ar- riving there just in time to see his fast mare, Lollle Eastin, carry the black, yellow sash, red sleevs and purple cap, to victory in the opening event. Fred’s commissioners backed Lollie from evens down to 7 to 10. Foster thinks he has made a good investment in his new farm, being convinced that it will be worth double what he paid for it inside of the next two or three years. The improvements include a nice house and Foster will have a splendid barn th a covered training track con- structed for his horses. He is already in the bre business, having mated Dr. Rice to Out of Sight early in the spring. — 2 — NEW RACE TRACK. May Be Constructed Near the Fair Grounds This Summer. In view of the fact that the Madison and East St. Louis tracks may be squelched by the Illinois Legislature, it should be men- tioned that unknown parties, supposed to be race track promoters, are negotiating for a site, suitable for a regulation mile His location is a part of a piece of ground on which a good mile coarse could be con- structed, with plenty of stable room. The party mentioned authorized his nt to investigate when he first received offer for his lease, and he says that the same people that made the proposition have cptions on most of the territory around his place. Of course they may be only real estate speculators, but in view of the pres- ent dismal outlook for any but legitimate —— in Illinois, a great many of the knowing ones seem to think that St. Louis will soon have another mile track. The Fair tion is not thought to be anxious to uring only a limited period of. the WILL CONSIDER. | The Closing of the Pastime Track To- | Ai Stat Rhy, 4243 „ 3 da 3 ö eg . oe : 450 New Styles Just Arrived Pe co Razor Point and Narrow Square Toes. 1 4 An Sizes, \ 5 to 11. 1 6.

Up in Chicago they say that a mile and a quarter over the Fair Grounds track in 2:06 is equal to 2:06 or better over the Wash- ington Park track. George W. Smith has been arrested at Pana, III., for stealing the race mare Free Silver from East St. Louis parties. Smith is now in jail... Domino is the favorite at 5 to 2 for the Brooklyn Handicap, with Ramapo and Laz- zarone equal second choices at 5 to 1 each, Sir Walter is quoted at 6 to L Jack Chinn's great colt, Lissak, was named in honor of Louis Lissak, a well- known San Francisco sporting man. Willie Martin, the famous jockey, was in- definitely suspended at Latonia yesterday for a queer ride on Rightmore. Figaro took up 112 pounds and ran a mile in 1:41% at the Fair Grounds. This cracks the track record one-quarter of a second. Garner’s poor ride on Simmons beat Walsh’s horse yesterday. Texas Tom” had a $300 bet on his crack. Fred Foster backed Ben Lomand all three ways. Ross drew his whip when he had the race won, Ben Lomond sulked under it and let Minnie Cee beat him out. Over at Cincinnati they say Byron Mo- Clelland will not race Navarre here, because the track is too hard. Katie B., winner of the fourth race at Roby yesterday, was disqualified and the race given to John Wilson, a 100 to 1 shot. The Saratoga Club, which “welched’’ at the Fair Grounds Saturday, tried to cut in at Latonia last week, but Col. Bill Apple- gate was not satisfied that the club was all right. The unauthoritative report printed by an irresponsible party yesterday that Prince Carl had been killed, caused Chris Smith great uneasiness for the time being. The fable about Salvator being named for a braffü of beer will not do. Mr. Haggin named his great horse after a faithful old negro servant of his family. BETTS A FINER. Mekin, Davis and Doyle Hit for Good Round Sums. President Young has notified Meekin, Da- vis and Doyle that Betts had fined each of the first named twe $25 and Doyle $100, and that the fines must be paid this week or all would be disqualified from playing. Under the rules the club cannot pay any of these fines, but they must come out of the play- ers’ pockets. With the Lynch fines added Davis has already lost $125, Doyle $125 and ‘Meekin $25. These Betts fines will be paid under protest, and Young will be notified at the same time that Doyle will bring suit to recover the money as a test case. COSTLY ERRORS. Dowd and Brown Lost the Game for the Browns. The Browns outbatted the Brooklyns in the game Monday, but the latter team was more fortunate in bunching the hits. Ehret pitched a good game and held the Bride- grooms down to six hits. Brown and Dowd made costly errors and but for them the score would have been tied in the ninth.
