MRS. HEARNE NOT IN COURT. Sharp Passage Between Dr. Hearne and Attorney Heather Concern- ing His Testimony. * Special to the Post-Dispatch. 4 HANNIBAL, Mo., July 17.—The excite- ment the Hearne-De Young libel suit reach height this morning when it was decided t6mearch every person entering At- torney Mahan’s office, where the deposi- tions are being taken. There has been fear expressed all along that some of the inter- ested parties would take to shooting. his Was especially feared of Dr. Hearne. Consultations were held by Judge Hen- dricks, Hearne’s oounsel; Judge Harrison, the’ referee, and Sheriff Edward Pratt, and this somewhat sensational step was decided “son. It was not taken, however, as plans were changed at the last moment. It was learned that Dr. Hearne had no weapon upon him, and it was thought inadvisable to search him unnecessarily, as he would have been prosecuted had concealed weap- ons been found upon him. Another anticipated sensation did not materialize when Mrs. Hearne failed to put in an appearance. The reason Judge Hen- dricks had given for recalling Richard H. Stillwell to-day was that he wanted him to make his refiections upon the chastity of his stepmother face to face with her whom he was blasting. At the last moment it was thought safest not to precipitate a scene and Mrs. Hearne did not appear. Richard H. Stillwell took the stand shortly after 10 o'clock. At his own request the oath was readministered to him. The first question asked him was: „Have you been in Chicago since your for- ‘mer examination?” Ne I ree ed “Did you see Mra, Susie Hayward there?” J gecidentally met her on the street. I Tegret that I did 80.“ “Did you talk with her about the case?’ J did.” “Was A. L. Clark there during the time?“ “T think not.“ “At the time Mrs. Stillwell was married to Dr. Hearne did you give the bride away?’ “I do not remember.”’ Judge Hendrick's questions then turped to the employment of detectives by thé wit- ness to ferret out the murder, in response to which he went on to explain the conduct of the Pinkertons as being perfectly natural, He had no reason to suspect Hearne at that time, and after the detectives had followed up every clew he let them go. In reference to Mrs. Hayward the wit- ness said his stepmother and Mrs. Hay- ward were intimate friends, and that she robably felt it her duty to advise Mrs. tillwell as to her course of action. I know,” he went on to say, that my fath- ere wife was trying to coax him into an overt act in order that she might get a di- vorce with alimony. My father suspected the relations between Dr. Hearne and his wife. One morning at the breakfast table he said that Hearne should never enter the house, and she threw a coffee cup at him. My father told this fact to Dr. Glass. The Gay before my father’s death he wrote a letter, in which he said ‘he had been get- ing along more nicely than he had been do- ing for some time past.“ He said, ‘he thought his wife had begun to love him.’ I also know that for two months prior to my father’s death he was gloomier than I ever saw bim.“ “Do you remember writing a letter to „Molle ve or six weeks ago?’ I do.“ “In which you said Dr. Hearne ought to come 6n here, as the Chronicle was spending lot of money?’ “I did not say that.” “What did you say?” My recollection is that Mollie wrote to me saying that Dr. Hearne had been in Los An- es trying to borrow $300 from her, or her , to come to Hannibal, and that they would not let him have it. I wrote and Said she did right, and told her that the ex- citement here was still high, and that if he ht stay. The reason I did ew she was not friendly with him, and woyld pot mention it to him, nor would she to her mother, as it would worry her.“ The detectives’ report on their findings in the case was gone over in cross-examina- tion, especially that part dealing with the finding of the bloody rage in the vault. He repeated that there was ae in the re- ort as to the findi of anrt ing except thing to do with the case or the vault, He did not think pecially desirable to search while they were away. ow long had the a? between Mrs. Stillwell and Mrs. Hayward existed?” “For years.

Mr. Clay Heather testified yeste to a conversa- tion overheard in Col. erson's office between Cel. Anderson and Mrs. ‘Hearne. We do not believe that it was possible to overhear what was said, and ask the court to appoint three or four disinterested men to to the office with us and let Col. Anderson and Mrs. Hearne’ talk and Mr. Heather listen and see what the result is.“ There was some little discussion over the propriety of this, but Judge Harrison final- y appointed Judge Thomas H. Bacon, John Logan, Sr., Milton Strong and John M. Pat- ton. The hour set for the rather peculiar transaction was 3 p. m., and an adjournment until 1 p. m. to-morrow to hear the report. To-morrow an adjournment of several days will be taken, and every one interested pose to Chicago. The date for the return ere has not been fixed. Clay Heather refused to accompany the party to Col. Anderson’s office. He resta, squarely on his own testimony, and says the other side is welcome to make whatever tests they wish without his assistance. Dr. Hearne and Heather came near get- ting Into trouble right after the adjourn- ment. The doctor is furious at him for the testimony he has given, and when he learned that he had refused to go to Col. Anderson’s office he became very much excited. Sharp words passed between the two, but Judge — 2 quieted his man and took him IMPORTANT REVELATIONS, Significance of the Testimony of At- torney Heather. Special to The Post-Dispatch. HANNIBAL, Mo., July 17.—The testimony of H. Clay Heather, Prosecuting Attorney of Marion County, furnished the sensation of the Hearne-De Young libel suit yester- day. It was not like most of the testi- mony which has been printed so far. All of the other sensational stories save part of Richard Stillwell’s had Been heard in the Grand Jury room and had become food for general gossip in the town for months and years, Not so with Heather’s. It came with a clap of thunder f the clear sky. It was thé ‘final stroke in Attorney Mahan's case. There were not a dozen persons who knew that the young 2 had during all these years carried with him the secrets he yesterday divulged, and when the bulletins put upon the streets by the loca? papers told them of it the previous sensations of this sensational hearing were all eclipsed. Heather’s testimony clinches strongly the evidence given during the early depositions going to show that Dr. Hearne and Mrs. Stillwell were contemplating getting rid of Amos J. Stillwell and that Rufus J. Ander- son, ex-Prosecuting Attorney for Marion County and now local counsel for Dr. Hearne knew of this. Col. Anderson made threats of bringing libel proceedings against Richard Stillwell because the latter connected Rim with this knowledge, but in the face of Heather's testimony that he heard him in consultation with Mrs. Stillwell for an hour as to how this should best be done, places him in such a position that legal proceedings hardly ap- pear probable. Judge Hendrick made a strong assault up- on Heather because of the manner in which he obtained this damaging information. By the witness’ own statement he overheard it through a locked door at a time when he was a student in Col. Anderson’s law of- fice. The Judge intimated very strongly by his questions that this was both unpro- fessional, ungentlemanly, and sufficient to make the witness unworthy of belief. Heather was very frank about the mat- ter. He said he conceived it to be his duty to tell it. If Judge Hendrick, or Col, An- dérson, or anybody else thought that they could talk around where he was about a case of this character and then expect him to keep his mouth shut because he hap- pened to be in the same office they had picked out the wrong man. There is now scarcely any doubt in the minds of the people here that the Grand- ury will indict Dr. Hearne and his wife. he proceedings so far have not only in- flamed the popular prejudice against the couple on the basis of the old facts, but additional information has been ained. Then Richard Stillwell, with his everlasting expressions of innocence in his relatives and his explanations of suspicious circum- stances will no longer be in that attitude. He will now really do as he has always claimed he has done, viz: urge a thorough and absolute investigation of the case to the bitter end. An indictment is the only way that this can be done, and the people of Hannibal now believe that the chances in favor of this eventually are 100 to 1. * The testimony of John R. Stillwell yes- terday was a surprise. There were many who anticipated that with his deep-seated hatred of Hearne that he would tell every- new, but those who claim to that he did not. He is waiting for the trial, and then there will come the time when he will square himself with Hearne. He owes him now for more than the death of his uncle, if mon report and hints on the witness stand be true, and if the look in his eye as he glared at the doctor during the giving of his evidence may be taken as an index of his feelings, there can be no mercy in his heart. Judge Hendrick, the Ben Diego attorney who has been conductin r. Hearne’s case, rs to be a chan man since his ar- val in Hannibal. hen he came here he talked freely and cheerfully of his prospects in the case. He did not realize in the first place the terrible feeling that exists here against his client. He s felt this now, and its influence is apparent upon him. Hendrick now refuses to discuss the case, except In the most guarded way. He declares that such is the prejudice t Dr. Hearne that the newspapers do not give him @ fair chance, and use ev- ery TT. — against him. He has warned . Hearne to keep his mouth shut, do that even the doctor, who has hitherto been willing to discuss the question in any of tts phases, is now much more careful.

VAN, June 3.—The prison of Van, where the Armenian prisoners are confined, is loca- ted under the shadow of the city wall and at a point where the ground is low 80 as to receive the drainage of the rest of the city. Like the rest of the buildings of the city it is built of sun-dried bricks laid in the mud. The prison is only a one-story building, and with no provision for keeping it dry. The inner prison consists of six long, nar- row rooms, three on each side of a common passagéway into which they open, Each room is about twelve feet wide and from thirty to forty feet long, has two windows at the outer end and two small windows and a door at the inner end opening into the passage. During the last winter from thirty to forty men were crowded in each of these rooms, sleeping on the floor, a row along each wall, so that if their feet were a little more than ordinarily extended the two rows would interfere with each other. Sometimes there are twenty-two men in each row, allowing only about eighteen 8 It's Fun for the Silver Men, but Death to the Big Four.“ aie ö N f ach person. ‘J 8 small cells mentioned are damp, dark and entirely unwarmed for winter, A There Is Not Time 0 Call Pri- prisoner, Karakeen Paghepestcan by name, ; * was kept in one of these cells fourteen con- mi ry Blections. rte...

The struggle between McCreary and Blackburn was desperate. McCreary sent Jere Sullivan, his secretary, here, but Blackburn had a man icked who could command a large part of the Owens vote. He also put an Owens man to work in the county which went for Owens in the Breckinridge-Owens contest.

H. vir- two the PHILADELPHIA, Pa., July 17.—H. Holmes, alias Herman Mudgetts, has tually confessed to the murder of the children whose les were found in cellar of a Toronto house. It was learned at the office of the Dis- trict Attorney during the two hours’ inter- view Holmes had yesterday with three members of the District Attorney's staff that he said: “I suppose I'll swing for this.“ This is the only, remark dropped from Holmes’ lips which in any way tends to fhcriminate him. The District Attorney says this is practical admission of Holmes’ guilt. Notwithstand- ing Holmes’ remark, his counsel says he can prove an alibi in his client’s case. He says that Holmes was not in Toronto when the Pietzel children were murdered. This he says can be proven by Mrs. Howard, Holmes’ third wife, who is at present liv- ing with her mother in Franklin, Ind. The authorities place but little cradence in the alibi story and are satisfied fiat he is the murderer. Good Detective Work.

One report had it that he had eloped with a woman who used to scrub the floors. There was no one who could affirm or deny the rumors, and in this confused state the whole matter was reported to Custodian Dalton. That official held a conference with himeelf and then sat down real hard. Something was heard to crack and at the same moment a heavy blue mark was reg- istered in the pay-roll book. A little later, Col. Jackson, the old col- ored janitor, was seen to enter the bosses’ sanctum, and when he made his exit a few mofnenis later he was covered with smiles. Wednesday morning he wore. a clean white shirt and made the dust fiy on the former scene of Paddy's labors. No wonder Paddy was sore. His sides actually pained him.

The excursion to be given by the Young Men's Sodality of St. Teresa’s parish, on the steamer Grand Republic this evening will be watched with much interest because it will take place in spite of the protest of the pastor, Rev. Fr. Connolly. He opposed the excursion so forcibly that the sodalists formed the Catholic Young Men’s Club, and are going to the excursion under that name. But this concession did not placate Fr. n ; re an t excursion : protes st the s objection is based on the fact that liquor is to be sold on board the , and gambling devices will be in operation. lie and others see an inconsistency in churches and church organjzations patronizing or tolerating on the water what they are fighting on the land. e answer has been that if the excursion pany is permitted to retain the liquor and gambling privileges, the boat can be hired for almost nothing whereas if these privileges are not allow by the Sodality, the chartert fee will be several hundred dollars. Fr. nnolly has found a . — exit from this dilemma by : “Don’t have an excursion.”’ letter of explanation written by Mr. T. Albin Layton, Treasurer of St. Teresa's You Men's Sodality, and published in a Catholic paper, has caused some comment. Although moderate and conciliating, has been much praised and sev cised on account of the sharp div the parish on the excursion question. answer to Fr. Connolly’s statement that he had heard that several of the young men were drunk on the boat last year, Mr. Lay- ton said: “I heartily wish that our parish priest had, during his sojourn of two years in this parish, seen more of and heard less about the Young Men's Sodality.” This ex- ression is said to have —2 from Fr. Sonnolly a demand for an apology, and lor the surrender of the Sodality books. This is denied. Mr. Layton says his conversa- tion with Fr. Connolly, after the letter ap- peared, was pleasant. He says that the priest did not ask him to a or \0 surrender the books, altho he admitted that Fr. Connolly thought some things in n stated differ- the letter might have ently. IM CAMPBELL A AERO.

At least, that is the news that comes trembling over the wires from New York City. It will be remembered that Mr. Campbell and family have been 2 a tour in Ru- rope. He landed in New Tork on his return Sunday, and is staying over there a few days. In the meantime the story. of his heroism has leaked out, and all his street friends are sending him gold medals. The story runs that Mr. Campbell took passage home on the Normandie. During the trip the captain of the vessel came to Mr. Campbell one wy, and quietly, but hur- Tiedly, called him as for a consultation.

From the start it was evident that the sympathy of the jury was with the woman case.

In the. min nothing new was adduced beyond what has already been exclusively told in last Sunday's Post-Dispatch. The case was raving its third hearing. It had been tried in Judge Spaulding’s court a year ago, when a verdict for the plaintiff was rendered. The defendant took an ap- peal, and Judge Dillon, of the Circuit Court, decided that there was not sufficient évi- dence to support the testimony. Mr. Miles, who had charge of Mrs. West's case then, took a non-suit to prevent Judge Dillon from instructing to that end. This point was made as much as possible of by oppos- ing counsel, and evoked a good deal of ac- rimony on the part of Mr. George E. Smith, Mr. ilcox’s attorney. Still there was a ruling in Judge Dillon's court at that time which was a sop of com- fort to Mr. Miles and his client in the pres- ent case, which was this: In the estimate of the court the same rule or law which op- erates a bank operates upon the receiver of the draft which Mr. O. M. West, the wo- man’s husband, sent to Mr. Wilcox, mak- ing him the trustee for the faithful appli- cation of the money that was placed in his hands. * On the witness stand Mrs. West was con- siderably harrassed by the cross-examina- tion of defendant's attorney, who endeav- ored to fasten adultery and crime upon her. After Mrs. West had gone to Worcester the second time to effect some sort of set- tlement with her husband, she was desti- tute, wearing, ag she stated on the stand, her winter clothes in summer and her sum- mer clothes in winter. In order to sustain herself she applied for a position as house- keeper to a gentieman advertising for such a person. ‘I found that it was not a proper posi- tion that I was wanted for.“ cried Mrs. West vehemently on the stand, “and it is pret- ty hard lines for a woman to be accused of adultery by the man who robbed me of my money.“ When the testimony was all in, cross-ex- examined and rebutted, Mr. Miles waived the opening address, and left it to Mr. Smith to address the jury first. Mr. Miles ollowed with the ec osing argument, in which he scored Lawyer ilcox unmerci- fully. The latter moved about uneasily in his chair during his colleague's castigation. When the jury retired it was plain to be seen that they would return a verdict for the plaintiff. SAT TILL MIDNIGHT. The House and Council Finally Agree on an Appropriation Bill. As was anticipated yesterday the House and Council agreed on the appropriation bill, but not without the Council making conces- sions it was not expected it would make. The House receded from its amendment reducing the City Hall appropriation from $250,000 to $200,000, but om the other hand the Council yielded in the matter of the $10,000 appropriation for Forest Park police, al- though the ordinances give no authority for the appropriation. The ouse committee was dead set on this particular appropriation goin through and to have further antagoni them on this would have been to continue the dead- In consideration, therefore, of the House committee consenting to a restora- tion of the full amount originally appropri- ated, the Council committee agreed to this and other contessions. An agreement was not reached without a long and at times heated discussion. The Council appentes Messrs. Uthoff, Brink- meyer an eckel a conference committee, and took a recess till 7:30 o’clock to en- able them to meet the House committee, 21 of Delegates Kelly, Kritemeyer, and Mepham. Mr. Kelly did the fighting Sor the House and Mr. Uthor for the Coun- cil. The House committee having agreed after a hard fight on the appropriation of $260,000 for the new City Hall, there was no money in sight to provide for the other House amendments without taking it from other departments. This was accomplished by — off $15,000 from the appropriation of 900 for — gy ey the new court rooms and the offices in the new City Hall and 6,500. from the Sewer Department. This was then distributed to meet such of the amendments as the House committee i on, 13 $10,000 for Forest Park ‘police; $3,000 additional to the Work- house appropriation for extra guards; $1,500 for bath rooms for females at the House of Refuge, and tle proposes increases for the Police and Healt epartments, It took four hours to accomplish this, and it was nearly midnight before both houses adjourned. On the reports of the committees the 1 — bill as amend- ed was finally passed, President Nagel of the Council alone refusing to vote. Unregistered Policemen.

The five floors were packed with bales of straw, and great difficulty was experienced in get- ting water into the building. Some appre- hension was felt for the large five-story building immediately north of the Cupples warehouse, occupied by the St. Louis Paper Box Co., extending to Elm street. It was water-soaked and kept from burning. It is —— the fire was started by one of the sulphur pans, used in bleaching the straw, upseting and setting fire to the bales of straw.

In a quarrel over a horse trade at Twen- tieth and Paim street Tuesday afternoon George Mitchell, colored, James Cox and Gus Militzer received injuries more or less serious. Cox fired five shots, and one of the bullets entered Mitchell’s breast. Mil- itzer, a looker on, received one of the shots in the leg. Cox was struck with a brick over the head. All are in the same room in the City Hospital. Mitchell's condition is serious, and Cox’s arm is badly fractured. Mitchell lives at 1315 Morgan street; Cox at 1520 St. Louis avenue, and Militser at 3129 North Twentieth street. Park Department Officials.

The power-house of the new St. Louis, Kirkwood & Meramec River Railroad will not be located in the county as reported. The stock holders have scured a site front- ing on Park avenue, running north to Vista street, near the St. Louls & San Francisco Railroad tracks, where they will locate their plant, car sheds, etc. The improvements, including machinery. will cost over $200,000. * The site a 8 — 2 — and is a portion of a acre cently purchased by the dell Railroad Co. for $45,000. The Lindell made the pur- chase intending to enlarge its car sheds and power house. They are having plans drawn at present for the improvements, but will use only three acres of the und. Mr. Whitaker stated to a Post-D tch reporter at the time of the purchage that it was made largely as a speculation, The switehing facilities of the property make it valuable as a manufacturing: site, and Mr. Whitaker hopes to see prices on the remain- ing ground doubled in the next five years. he officers of the new County Electric Railway are St. Louis capitalists and they decided to make the road as strictly St. Louis as possible. It was decided to locate the headquarters of the company here. Enterpr ing realty dealers are at present negotiating for ground in the vicinity of the power-house site, to improve with resi- dences for the accommodation of the em- ployes of the new road. It is estimated — some 500 men will be given employ- ment. In the County Court Monday a ition was filed by the new road's officials, ask- ing to have its bond reduced from to $5,000 and the cash deposit of 5,000 reduced to $1,000 This was agreed to, whereupon @ formal acce ce of the franchise was filed by Hon.

C.,“ published else where on this page, directs attention to a trick which should be very carefully guarded against in the coming primaries and mass-meetings for the election of del- egates to the State convention. There can be little doubt that it reveals a plan of campaign that has been mapped out by the opponents of free silver. The proffer of a late convention was re- jected by the gold men because they were well aware that they would be crushingly defeated in an open campaign before the people. Their opinion on this point was not a matter of inference or conjecture. The Post-Dispatch happens to know that before the meeting of the State commit- led very careful inquiries were made by Mr. Francis and others as to the -possibfiity of carrying certain of the counties against silver. It was the in- formation received in answer to these in- quiries that led to the decision of the gold men not “to put up the prettiest fight ever seen in Missouri.”’ It is not to be assumed, however, that their concession of an early convention and the ostentatious announcement that they will take no part in the contest means that they will make no further effort to thwart the purposes of the Democrats. If the silver men allow themselves to be thrown off their guard, they will be apt in many counties to find themselves the vic- tims of shrewdly laid plans to capture the delegations. If the silver men want to make sure of the fruit of their victory over a stubborn committee, they must be watchful and vigilant until all the delegates to the con- vention are elected. When a primary or & mass-meeting is called in any county, they must make sure of an attendance that will enable the real sentiment of the county on the money question to find expression and representation in the del- egates chosen. They must not be caught napping. 2 TAINTED UNIVEESITY ENDOWMENTS. | There is midsummer entertainment in the hysterical protests of some of the clergy against Mrs. Stanford's proposed gale of 1,000,000 gallons of brandy from her ranch for the benefit of Stanfprda University.

The calling of a State convention was not the only victory achieved by the Dem- ocrats of Missouri in their recent contest with the State Committee, Quite as im- portant as the convention itself is the les- son that has been taught the committee 8 its functions and its true rela- tion to the party. Nothing could exceed the arrogance of the committee’s attitude at the outset. The committeemen who voted against a convention on June 1 gave it out that it was Mr. F. W. Lehman's speech that de- cided them. Mr. Lehman's speech was simply an argument that the committee is a body of men so much wiser and more intelligent than the party they represent that it was their duty. to disregard the party’s demands whenever, in their wise judgment, the foolish and ignorant people were exhibiting their folly by asking what the committeemen thought they ought not to have. The idea that the committee are simply agents, appointed to execute the party's will, and that their firat duty is to carry out the instructionsof those who appoint- ed them as agents, was openly flouted in the committee meeting and afterwards by sundry of the committeemen in pub- lished interviews, This political heresy has been effectu- ally extirpated. The committee have learned in the school of experience that they are not dictators or masters, but servants. The good old doctrine that the people rule, and not the agents whom they endow with a little brief authority, has been re-established. Would-be bosses have been subjected to discipline which they are not likely soon to forget. One result, and not the least important, of Monday’s meeting is that the theory that it is part of the duty of a wise com- mittee to restrain and thwart the people in their folly will not be heard of in Mis- souri again for a long while to come. — 2 — CHICAGO’S BIG SEWER. There is no occasion for panic over the. Chicago Drainage Canal. There wes un- scrupulous disregard fer the rights and interests of others in the projecting and building of this big sewer, but St. Louis is in little danger of disastrous effects | from it. Even the great qantity of sew-. age which Chicago throws off would be harmless by the time it reached St. Louis. But this city is further protected by the fact that our water supply is really drawn from .the Missouri River, whose current flows next to the St. Louis shore. Chairman King of the Missouri Board of Health, nowever, ts right in his de- termination to take action towards pre- venting the pollution of the Mississippi or its tributaries through Chicago drain- age. He is correct in his view that this is a proper subject of Congressional ac- tion. The people of one State are en- titled to protection from the pollution of rivers by the people of another State. This right of protection is founded upon a common principle of juatice. Congress should take up the whole ques- tion of river drainage.end have it thoroughly investigated with a view toa permanent solution. The country is be- coming so thickly settled that the qispos- al of sewage will soon be a matter of vital importance to public health. Laws will be needed to preyent the tainting of streams with the sewage of cities. Mu- nicipalities will be compelled to adopt sanitary methods of disposing of their sewage. Practical experience has dem- onstrated that it. can be profitably util- ized by scientific treatment. ‘Tt looks like the Blackburn man will meet defeat,” was telegraphed from Lex- ington, Ky., on Tuesday, but the Black- burn man “got there“ in good shape, and two other Blackburn men triumphed with him.

From the Sedalia Democrat. The initiatory steps were taken by a num- ber of Democratic newspaper men on Friday last to perfect an organization of the Demo- cratic editers who, in spite of an unfriendly administration, adhere to the doctrine the party has so often enunciated on the silver question. > With the masses of the Democratic party overwhelmingly in favor of the coinage of both gold and silver into primary money, the party machinery seems to have drifted into the hands of Democrats who favor the gold standard. All of the power of the national adminis- tration, backed by shrewd manipulators and a seemingly exhaustiess campaign fund, ts arrayed against bimetalllem, and is appar- rently determined to fix the gold standard upon this country, and then couple with it some scheme for wildcat currency, such as was proposed by Secretary Carligle last winter. These new converts to a strange doctrine admit the insufficiency of gold to do the business of the country, but instead of using both gold and silver at an honest ratio as primary money, they propose to use gold alone as redemption money and to supply the deficiency by paper issued upon the sup- aasets of the banks, and to tax the solvent institutions to make up the losses through the insolvent af issue. It ig against the effort of a fraction of the party to commit the 4 — to any such wild and vialonary schemes, and against the effort to fix the gold standard upon this country, that the editors of the Democratic Hewapagers PFopnee to organize and to bat- tle. . that gold ard literature free through the country press. 141 ; 7 en very pounds the table until the glasses rattle and expresses his opintons with a volume of voice not at all conducive to secrecy. I heard a good deal of what Mr. Zevely said, and a little of what bis tions said. They were talking about the committee meeting Se . day. Ina general way I gathered t they were ar- Scheme something about this o coming State Convention | least that seemed to be the -prevailing opinion. The conclusion garter much discussten, was that it a late convention was held and a canvass should be entered upon between the oppos- ing factions the odds would be altogether in favor of the Silverites, and that a defeat under such circumstances would be disas- trous, as there would then be no possible explanation therefor. And hence it was de- termined, as I understood, that the best play they could make (“play is the word they used) would be to have a number of speeches made before the committee in fa- vor of a late convention, asking that the Gold men might have an opportunity for a fair discussion before the people; that they would make a great clamor for a late con- vention, but arrange so that notwithstand- ing and in spite of their insistence the State Committee would call the convention about the ist of Auguet; that they would then pretend to be greatly disgusted and swear they would have nothing to do with the convention. All this “play” was to be duly and elabo- rately advertised in the papers. But this did not mean that they were in fact to aban- don all effort to capture the convention. It was argued that the farmers are busy with their crops and that if the Gold men gave it out that they would not make any contest that the Silverites, being over confident in their strength and not expecting any oppo- sition, would be indifferent or careless about attending conventions; that the Gold men now had a good organigation in the State which ts well in hand and can be quickly moved, and that by passing the word around and lying lew they might be able to rush in at the last hour and cap- ture enough delegatiens to control the con- vention, or at least to make a very formid- able showing; that they could then exclaim “Bee what we have accomplished without an effort! What might we not have done if we had made a fight?" It was contendgd that an early convention would help; rather than retard, a clandes- tine victory of that kind, as their forces, composed largely of bankers, railroad offi- Clals, ete., could be easily, quickly and secretly organized, while the organization of the masses would take a longer time and must necessarily be done publicly. On the other hand it wap argued that if the scheme to capture the convention should fail they could then fall back on the original propo- sition that they had been denied a hearing and had kept aloof from the whole business. When this conclusion was reached a new bottle was gpened and sparkling glasses were tipped with much seeming satisfac- tion. Although I am not much in sympathy with the Silverites, I do believe in fair play. Although amused I could hot but feel a cer- tain amount of indignation at this plot to deceive the peaple of the State. I was not playing the part of deliberate eavesdropper. While sitting quietly with a friend in some- what close proximity to this company of rather hilarious statesmen I could not well avoid overhearing quite a good deal of their conversation, particularly so when Mr. | Zavely was the speaker. Seeing the whole plan so completely carried out and re- ported in this morning’s Republic, I cannot resist the temptation to write this letter to you for such use as you may care to make of it. D. R.

Lamothe of Alton, III., to the site of the city of London, which he says was leased in 1788 by an ancestor only excites ridicule here. There is no such lease as he speaks of in the local archives. The first one on record dates back only to 1820. Capt. W. P. Lamothe recently sold 700 acres of land on the Missouri point at Al- ton, III., to a St. Louls s ayn leate.

Texas Fruit Palace is incorporated under the laws of Texas, with a capital stock of $25,000, and it is the aim of Hast Texas fruüft men to make it a permanent institution and give yearly exhibitions and to demonstrate #8 the world that this belt of Texas produces any kind of fruit or mel- ons produced elsewhere, and markets them two months earlier. One of the leading objects of this associa- tion is to bring the great fruit industry e A Well organized system and tangible shay The demand for green, canned, evapora ed and desiccated fruits cannot be supplied mit — n Fruits are no rded as luxuries, merely, but as of prime necessity to every aa? these reasons the industry has tly stregiated within the past eae . until it has reached very large proportions. The fruit palace is the out- — of peeat thirty years of toll and ex- ce spen mn the orchards an - yards of * Texas. ene ree investments have been made in this business of late years, resulting in the immense increase of trees and product, with the rapid improvement in variety and qual- ity of the fruits. The place selected for the location of the fruit palace was wisely chosen, being almost in the center of the large fruit belt of Texas. This fruit belt has an area of about the size of the State of New Jersey, and is highly adapted in oli. te, elevation, running streams, rainfall, ne dity, freedom from storms of wind and , from severe frosts and insects that de. s{roy ae fe.

MAGNET CHANGES OWNERS. Dan Honig, the St. Louis Horseman, Buys Him From Hickok for $3,500 Dan Honig, the St. Louis horseman, made an important addition to his stable when he purchased the seneational 38-year-old St. Blaise colt Magnet for $3,500 from F. H. Hickok. Magnet is a grand looking chest- nut by the imported stallion St. Blaise, out of Magnetic. He won at 50 to 1 the first day of the meeting, and since then has run second to Gallant, three-quarters, ing 1:14: beat Dorah Wood, Frank Farmer an ib- ertine five and one-half furlongs in 1:02, and was second to Star Ruby, six and one-half furlongs, in 1:21. This was his last appearance at the Fair Grounds. Magnet was conceeding weight to everything in the raee, and when Lollie Bastin tried to stay with him he ran the first half in : flat. Honig thinks he has secured a great colt in agnet, and all the horsemen at the track believe he is cor- rect. In fact, it ie generally conceded that Magnet is the best 38-year-old shown here during the present meeting. — b — CARR’S HARD LUCE.

NOT WORRIED. Promoters of the Big Fight Do Not : Mind the Opposition. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, July 17.—There is nothing about the movements of the men who are getting up the big glove championship con- test to indicate that they are worried in the slightest degree over the manifesto of the Attorney-General of Texas, or the al- leged uprising of the moral element of the Lone Star State against the project: Dan A. Stewart is P quietly with the details. For six months he has been work- ing on the fight. Before he visited New York, the contracts for the erection of a monster amphitheater were completed. Now the big building is started and the tickets are out. Within a week offices. will be opened in the big cities and bookings for seats may be made. Madison Square Garden is a pretty bi place, but the Dan Stewart building wilh seat ten times as many persons. Des does not ex t to crowd the house. It would take 518 customers to bring this about. He. believes, however, in being fully pre- pared for a rush. Ten dollars has been fixed upon as the price of the cheapest seats. The next come at $20, and the boxes are $40, unless there is a mark-down sale. If the seats should all be. sold the gross receipts should amount to the net sum of $1,225,244.94. without count- ing Mr. One-Eyed Connelly’ 8 usual contri- bution. This is a trifle more than Mme. Patti ever realized from a single concert. Dan Stewart is not a dreamer, however. He'll be satisfied if 8,000 buy tickets. SETBACK 70 P PROS. Cash Prises at Asbury Park Showed Up a Scrub Lot.
