The rts are increasing daily. In 1876 and a lively war was carried on again the sign obstructions, the down- town district was cleared of them, and pedestrians did not bark their shins t a sign in front of every door. But it was only a short time until merchants began securing special permission from the Mayor to place their signs on the curbstone. When one merchant saw his competitor p a si on the walk he immediat did A. w In a short time the whole down-town district was a wilderness of‘ curbstone again, and it has remained so for A petition filed Friday in the Probate Court reveals a dispute between a widow and her late husband's friend and adviser over the management of an estate worth $160,000. The petitioner is C. F. Forman of, Nashville, III., brother of ex-Congressman Forman of the famous Eighteenth Illinois District, and of Cashier Forman of the Continental Bank. Mr. Forman asked that Mrs. Caroline Barkhoefer of 8117 Rauschenbach street be ordered to make an accounting of her hus- band’s estate and io qualify in heavy bonds as curatrix of her children’s interests, which Mr. Forman is afraid may be squan- de . He explained his interference on the ground that he was a friend of the de- F. W. Barkhoefer, and had been asked by him before his death to keep an eye on the children. r. orman, in his petition, said that Barkhoefer, at hie death, April 1, 1889, left an estate worth $160.000, half of which was cash. loaned on good security. and the rest real estate in St. Louis and Washineton County, Ill. He bequeathed to the children A son by a former marriage $25,000 worth of nronertyv at Eleventh and Penrose streets, and left the remainder of his estate to his children, Ada Louise and Esther Amanda, for whom Mr. Forman is solicitous. This bequest was made subject to Mrs. Bark- hoefer’s life interest. and she was appointed executrix of the will. She was not to sell or fmcumber the property in the city. Mr. Forman recites that when Mrs. Bark- Noefer made her final settlement in the Pro- bate Court she had $7 in cash and the rest in proverty, the whole bringing an in- come of $7 a month. Of the money loaned $60,000 was let out in small sums of $100 and more, which Mr. Forman says he placed at interest in Washington County, III., on good security. He alleges that when Mrs. Bark- hoefer made her final settlement she became guardian and curatrix of her children’s in- terests without having obtained the ap- roval of the Probate Court. Then fol- ows a series of alleged mismanagement by Mrs. Barkhoefer. He alleges that she called in a large number of the loans in Washington County before they were due. Mr. Forman does not know what she did with the proceeds. From the fact that he cannot find a record of mortgages he con- cludes that she has let out the money on insufficient security and he narrates an in- stance where she is said to have loaned $10,- 000 on a worthless note. Mr. Forman says also that Mrs. Barkhoefer employed to care for the estate a man whom Mr. Barkhoefer in his lifetime often warned her not to trust, and the petitioner alleges that this man caused a loss to the estate of $7,000, which Was covered up by a worthless check. He states also that although the will required her to keep the buildings in repair, she tore down some of them and put up costly struc- tures. In addition, he said that although the home in which Mr. Barkhoefer lived at 2410 North Fourteenth street was comfort- able. Mrs. Barkhoefer erected a costly s on e Carlisle came into e rit ot the experiment and he put it into — . “4 roads carrying mali to St. Louis. The result was that hen the trains arrived the letters to places between Twelfth street and the river erz ckamek tiled te the were in seale — on each route. The letters for the ca outlying districts were massed in pack- ages for the several stations, for the uting#force was not large enough to out the letters for all the 400 carriers city. But this system of working the cit on the train caused friction now and then between the city men and the railway post- office men. The result was the transfer of the city men to the railway mail service. The staff of distributers on the cars will be increased so that when the trains arrive in St. Louis the letters will be in pack 8 addressed to each carrier who has outside mall to deliver and not a moment will be lost in distribution. The transfer of the city distributors to the railway mail — will lengthen their trips, for while they went only to Spring- field, III., for instance, to meet the Chi- cago mail trains, they will go to Chicago and make regular runs. To accommodate the increased force of railway mail clerks, the cars now building are being made as large as the longest passenger coach. The shelves and cases will be as complete as in the postoffice, and in a few woe stamping on cars will be done by machines, instead of by hand, as at present. Experiments are being made with — batteries for lighting the cars, for there is dissatisfaction with the present quality of illumination. If the experiment succeed, the storage system will be used to drive the machine stamps. All this is due to the merits of an experiment in the St. Louis postoffice. UNGALLANT FLORENCE RANK. He Beat Miss Lasley Upon the Face With His Fists. Florence Rann, 2655 Arsenal street, is not endowed with great gallantry, according to the story told Assistant Prosecuting Attor- ney Johnson Saturday by Miss Mollie Las- ley, 2649 Arsenal street. He so far forgot himself Friday afternoon as to strike Miss Lasley several blows in the face. The young lady is the daughter of the late Offi- cer Lasley. According to her statement Rann has been abusing the members of the Lasley family ever since Mrs. Lasley caused a high board fence to be erected on one side of her house. Friday afternoon Miss Lasley was passing Rann’s place when he saluted her, she states, with vije names. “You are nothing but a coward to talk And the Postmaster Failed to Learn It Until Afternoon. Two masked men forced an entrance to the post-office at Clinton, Mo., Friday morning before Postmaster F. R. Piper opened for business and carried away a small iron safe. : . They then locked the place and when the postmaster arrived he had no idea his place had been looted. ess was dull and it was not until late in the afternoon that he was required to e use of the safe.

The headquarters of the association were trans- ferred from Chicago to Cleveland, O. Ed E. Mallory, secretary, resigned his pogition early in thé — but was unanimously re- elected. He said he could not afford to live in Chicago on the salary attached to the 2 Aa year. The change corrected this. a In regard to sick benefits the convention decided that $8 per week shall be paid for 12 weeks of sickness and that no benefits shall be paid for more than 24 weeks in any one rear.

The Council took exactly the right course last night in unanimously reject- ing the jobbery amendments to the ap- propriation bill and appointing members of the Ways and Means Committee on the conference committee called for by the House of Delegates. The House, on the other hand, placed itself still further on the wrong side. Its disposition to bulldoze the Council into acquiescence with its job amendments was made manifest. Its action in re- fusing to recede in the slightest degree from its amendments and in appointing the leaders of the raid to the conference committee was a plain threat of a dead- lock which would hold up the appropria- tion bill and thus cut the departments off from money supplies. But the holding up of the appropria- tion bill will reflect on the House, not on the Council. The Council’s position is impregnable. It is standing squarely for economy and against wanton extrav- agance and jobbery. There is no defense for the House. It is attempting a raid on the treasury for spoils purposes. The Council can well afford to hold firmly to the original bill and let the responsi- bility for the consequences rest on the House. —_ THE G. 0. P. WILL HEARKENR. The Board of Directors of the Manu- facturers’ Club of Philadelphia has adopted the following resolution on the money question: There is in our opinion, almost, if not, indeed, quite complete unanimity of belief that bimetallism, or the use of both gold and silver as standard money, under the system commonly known as the double standard, would be beneficial to the Amer- ican people. This belief accords with the tradition and practice of the Government, as the system itself, in our view, does in a peculiar manner with the interests of a na- tion which is the chief of all the producers of raw material, and is heavily in debt. We express the opinion that our Govern- ment should actively endeavor, by persua- sion, or the use of other means, to induce éther Governments to enter upon an agree- ment to restore silver to its place as stan- dard money. The Manufacturers’ Club includes in Its membership some of the shrewdest, most far-seeing and successful business men in America. It has been the backbone of Protection in this country and has supplied the bulk of the campaign funds that enabled the Republican party to win victories in the teeth of adverse popular gentiment. The club is a thorough busi- ness organization. Its members are in business to make money and in politics for business. Their opinion is not a had been composed of so- Ww cranks” it could not have “tically and unequivocally vor of a bimetallic standard “Sof both gold and silver as be noted also that while wants an international agree- is not squeamish about the getting .

It was impossible to get | action upon any but boodle measures or measures which gave ample protection to corporation interests. The temper of these committees has not changed and nothing but obstruction to the purposes of the better elements of the Legislature can be expected from them. fhe key to the whole work of legisia- tion suggested by the Governor lies in the committees. Under the most favor- able circumstances with an honest Speak- er and the honest elements in control it will be a matter of the greatest difficulty to pass good laws with the Meyers com- mittees still in power. — THE RAA INDUSTRY. There was no form of practical patri- otic activity in which Thomas Jefferson took more delight and upon which he placed higher value than the introduc- tion of a useful product to the know!l- edge and cultivation of his countrymen. His writings are filled with evidence of his high estimate of such service and much of the time and energy of his mature years were expended in the cult- ure of foreign plants which he thought could be grown with profit in this country. This is the kind of service that Prof. Waterhouse seems to have about accom- plished. His articles concerning the culture and uses of the ramie plant which have been published in the Post-Dispatch are bearing fruit. The meeting of St. Louis manufacturers to consider the practicability of utilizing the Allison de- corticating machine in a local factory is a practical step of great promise towards the accomplishment of the objects for which Prof. Waterhouse has labored for many years. There is no question of the value of ramie culture in suitable soil and climate, nor of the possible profits of ramie manu- facture at a location convenient to sup- plies. The plant is prolific of crops and can be utilized in a wide diversity of valuable products. The fact that the Southwest offers exceptional advantages of soi] and climate for its cultivation makes St. Louis a most excellent location for ramie factories, It would be greatly to the credit and industry inaugurated here. It is to be hoped that the proposed factory will be built. *. TO-MORROW’S SUNDAY POST-DISPATCH. You'll read to-morrow’s Sunday Post- Dispatch because you can’t help reading it. It's one of the best yet, and the Sun- day Post-Dispatch is breaking all records in the line of crisp and well-handled news, superb and varied illustrations, bright and fascinating special stories. It is a holiday paper, light of heart, ex- ceeding fair to look upon, and as healthy as the salt breath of old Ocean or the balsamic breezes of mountain heights. Here are some of the bright features it will have to-morrow: They Live in Peaceful Suburbs—Story of the 50,000 “commuters” of St. Louis, the suburban residents who have built up the beautiful country surrounding this great city; how and where they live.

The Holy Well of Zem-Zem—Moslem priests and holy men are inciting their Mahometan followers to a religious revolt because united Europe is demanding that this dread birthplace of cholera be cleansed and purified. Pilgrims to Mecca are already stricken with the disease, and danger to the world is threatened. The Sunday Post-Dispatch télls_ the story of this remarkable crisis, and illus- trates it with a striking seven-column picture of a frenzied gathering of Mosfem fanatics around the brink of the Zem- Zem well.

Bugs in Song and Folk-Lore—The quaintest story imaginable, written by a St. Louis “bugologist’’ who loves bugs just as if they were kin to him, My Tyrant—Can’t you tell from the very title that it’s a love story? Well, it is, and a dainty one at that, and ap- preciatively illustrated and so happy in its ending that you'll linger over ſt and re-read it, all because you enjoyed every line of it. The New Blow With Which Champion Corbett May Knock Out. “Bob” Fitz- ‘simmons—A fresh discovery in pugil- ism, the full details of which will be given in to-morrow’s Sunday Post-Dis- patch. It's the very latest sporting sen- sation. Women Who Bet on the Races—A pend- ing suit for $100,000 for breach of promise brought out a charge that the fair plain- tiff.in the suit was a plunger“ on the races, and was known as “The Queen of the South Side Track.” She denies this, but the subject thus brought up is in- teresting, and the Sunday Post-Dispatch tells how women bet at the tracks, and the dangers they run.

Does it suppose its readers are so ignorant as not to know taxes are paid with the money paid in rents, and that the wage-earners are all tenants or tenants of tenants in one way or another? It is likely that the Illinois joker who will have to pay $200 damages for placing a pin in a chair upon which one of his ' fellow-citizens sat has come to the con- clugion that Illinois jurymen have no sense of humor.

A summary removal of Mat- att from the chairmanship would be about the proper thing. From the St. Francois Herald, Wonder if it ever occurred to Maffitt of the State Committee that he is not the boss of the Democrats of Missouri, but one of their servagts? From the St. Francois Herald. The Democratic newspapers of Southeast Missouri almost without a single exception are stanch advocates of free silver. It is only fair to say that they represent the views of an overwhelming majority of the Demo- cratic voters of their section and of the en- tire State. From the Marion County Herald. A great deal of solicitude seems to be felt by a certain class that the approaching State Convention and resolution in favor of free coinage which is sure to be adopted may disrupt the Democratic party. This must mean that the minority who do not-favor free coinage will desert their party and vote some other ticket. The average Western Democrat is reconciled to this result. He is tired of compromises. He is weary of shout- ing himself hoarse over victories which mean continued legislation in favor of the pampered East, while in West we get as our reward the substitution of one citizen for an- other as postmaster and occasionally have the pleasure of seeing some chronic office- holder, repudiated at home, placed in an obscure clerkship at Washington. Hereafter a Democratic victory must mean something in the West besides a change of postmast- ers. We must have for a candidate a man who does not say he is going out West when he takes a trip to Ohio. One who realizes that a portion at least of the nation’s popu- lation dwells west of the Mississippi, We may get beat. on this isdue, but we will at least have the satisfaction of knowing, after the scrimmage is over, just what the fight was about. It is useléss to talk of Whitney, Hill or Carlisle as presidential possibilities. The Democratic party must come West for its candidate next year. We believe we can win with a Western man. But we prefer de- feat to victory with a second Cleveland as standard-bearer. From the Pike County Post, , Some Democrats in St. Louis have or- ganized a so-called sound money” club, and part of its work is to circulate the speeches of John Carlisle on the currency question. This is simply a foolish expenditure of time and money. The Republicans are busy cir- culating John Sherman’s speeches on the same subject, and they are in all essential respects identical with Carlisle's, From the Boonville Democrat. The recent organization in St. Louis of what is called a sound money” club is an additional reason why the “honest money” Democratic editors of Missouri should meet for consultation. This St. Louis club is backed by the administration at Washing- ton and by unlimited means. An active can- vass of the State in the interest of the single gold standard and to perpetuate the great crime of 1873 upon the people, are among the objects they have in view. It is the duty of the Denfocrats of this State who are opposed to gold monometallism to prepare for resist- ance by organization, by speakers, and by the free distribution of literature advocating the rights of the people. We, therefore, hope to meet at Sedalia on the 23d, not only the able Democratic speakers who have been in- vited to attend, but a very large number of our contemporaries of the Democratic silver press. \ — 9 Correspondent Boonville Demo- Keep one eye on D.

I suppose that St. Louis Judge was doing what the law allows when he fined Patrick J, Ryan $10 on Thursday morning for ask- ing a well-dressed citizen for a nickel. But ah me!

NICKEL BASIS. The Czar’s Proposed Loan. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. If it is true that the Czar of Russia of- fered to lend the American Government 80, 000,000 or any other sum, it shows how far the United States has degenerated of late, for officials of its Government ave shown so much of the s t of autocracy that the greatest autocrat on earth should think it perfectly natural and robable that this country would accept nancial aid from him. That it was not at once indignantly refused also shows that the Administration at Washington has lost every trace of the true American spirit. an this be the country that hel the French in their at revolution? ut why ask that, when nce he has so degen- erated as to dicker with and pander to the Russian tyrant?
