Cleveland Is More Popular With the People To-Day Than He Ever Was.

BAR HARBOR, Me., Aug. 10.—‘‘In the se- lection of the next nominee for President I propose to take an active part, but I am not a candidate myself.“ said Mr. Whitney to your correspondent to-day. “No man has ever refused a nomination tendered by a national convention,” said the correspondent. . “No one has ever been nominated President against his own wishes,“ Mr. Whitney, decisively. It may be announced at once and the news will clear away a fog of uncertainty in New York as to Mr. itney’s plans that he has no intention of part in the pacifica- tion or reo tion of the Democratic 0 tions in New York city this time. “Time will heal many of the political wounds,“ said he, “and those who are on the scene should find a remedy for them. giad to do any servicc for the ew York city, but I do not see elp, it just now.“ d the possibility of a double on in New.

They were fostered by a tariff which granted enormous profits in spots and at the same time stified general competition and repressed individual enterprises. Colos- sal fortunes did indeed increase under that tariff and the people thoroughly under- stand that the MeKinley act fostered such fortunes and granted them immunity from the restraint of competition. While some great corporations were thus thriving the people and the national treas- ury were impoverished and every month added to the weight of the hundreds of tons of silver that the Government was buying but could not coin and circulate. A crash was inevitable. The Cleveland Administra- tion met the crisis which the Republicans had evaded. The Republicans created the difficulties and the Oleveland Administra- tion has solved them. “I think the Democratic party stands to- day where the Republican party stood at the end of the war. It has made a new record. It has passed through « eat national emergency and conquered it. ery obstacle to a restored prosperity has been removed. This is what the ocrats have done and what Democrats propose to go on —2 even better in the future than in the as Do you wish to go forward, or do yo wish to turn back? the Democratic part will ask the country next year. “Do you think the Government revenues will suffice under the present tarif?“ “Yes, with Democratic economy, but not if Republican extravagance is unchecked. Even without the income tax, which now seems irretrieveably lost, I am confident that the income will be sufficient. Growing prosperity, which I count as almost certain, will nat increase the me from tariff and our industries will More equally thrive under the 23 tariff than under the that I have never been in a tariff which will work harm to a single American forge or factory.“ “Do you take the gossip about a possible third term for Mr. Cleveland seriously?’ the correspondent asked. “I know absolutely — about Mr. Cleveland's intentions,” said Mr. Whitney, frankly. “Since you ms you 8 4 — very strongly my opin 0 6, tha in the next 472 months ‘Mr. Cleveland ll grow in public esteem.

The party missed its opportunity five years ago. Surely the Republicans will not ap- peal to the country for a restoration of a 3 tariff, and in no other event is cKinley a logical candidate. Mr. Reed’s supreme test will be his leadership of the majority in the House next winter, and it is too early to speculate about his position.” Western Republicans speak highly of Mr. Allison of Iowa.“ “Senator Allison,“ said Mr. Whitney, cor- abler man than many people w.

Improving conditiqns will diminish the feel- ing on this subject. The rest must be left to time and an international agreement. In the meantime no one can question the soundness of our currency. “The situation as I see it to-day.” said Mr. Whitney, is that the people have fully vented their resentment upon the Demo- cratic party for the ilis for which the party was not responsible and that they must soon judge it by its record in contrast with ts predecessor’s, which even Republicans admit has been disastrous. the season of the next national convention with, perhaps, a rising tendency of prices and wages; in the enjoyment of some of the blessings of prosperity and with the prom- ise of more; with the assurance of industrial peace if the Democratic party retains its power; with safe finances and a definite political policy and, above all, with an over- mastering indisposition on the rt of the people to either renew the ills from which they have but recently escaped, or to try new experiences of the same sort. The Cleveland administration will leave the ty inestimably stronger at the end of his second term than it was at the first, I wish to make that perfectly clear.” The Post-Dispatch correspondent’s inter- view with Mr. Whitney Occurred in the uiet and beautiful summer home which the rmer Secretary occupies with his daugh- ter, and which he fills with youthful — — for her sake.

FOUR CHICAGOANS IN A FIX. The Clumsy Work of Gapt. George W. Streetor and His Cémpanions Will Prove Their Doom. Special to The Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 10.—The an- nouncement of the arrest in Chicago of Capt. George W. Streetor, Charles Apple- gate, William H. Cox and Jacob Nine by United States Secret Service officers on the charge of forging a Government patent to a tract of made land on the north shore beach of St. Clair street, develops an in- teresting Washington end. Streetor is a notable figure in Chicago. He was a sailor, and one stormy night in Chicago his boat stranded on the lake shore front of the residence of Mr. N. K. Fairbank, the mil- lionairé speculator. Streetor let the boat stay there. The land filled in between the wreck and the shore, and he claimed pos- session. It took Fairbank ten years of lit- igation to dispossess him. There was many a hard-fought battle around the old hulk, Mrs. Streetor herself being something of a scrapper. Finally a syndicate began filling in about 200 acres of lake in that quarter, and Streetor and his confederates determined to have a gigantic land grab. The means they used was’ a crude and clumsy at- tempt at forgery of a Federal land patent. From evidence in the possession of the United States District Attorney here, it appears that last March Capt. Streetor, accompanied by Wm. H. Cox and Jacob Nine, came to Washington. Frequent vis- its were made to the fted States land office, where they tried to file certain papers bearing on the claim. The officials de- clined to receive these papers and a neat scheme was resorted to. They obtained a certified copy of a t of land made to Robt. Kinzie in issf during Van Buren’s administration. This copy was furnished them by the land office on the payment of the usual fees. That patent was for 102 acres in Palestine land district, now Chi- Sago.“ It bore copies of the signature of Martin Van Buren and other officers of that date. With this copy and the commu- nication from the Commissioner of the Land Office attesting its correctness, the con- federates went to work. Wherever the name of Robert Kinzie appeared it was re- moved by the use of oxalic acid and the names of George W. Streetor and Peter J. Johnson inserted. It was a bungling piece of work at best. Had they known more about land office routine they could have done better work. In their haste to fix matters they rubbed out the name of Martin Van Buren and sub- stituted, that of Grover Cleveland without changing the date, thus bringing the al- leged patent up to this administration in part. Another error was made by g the name of the Secretary of the Interior, but instead of writing it “Hoke Smith,’ it appears as “Oaks Smith.” The 102 of the was made the pa os En aktemne at — * — with em w — Wonderful Crops Raised en the Free Potato Farms. NEW YORK, Aug. 10.—No farmer in the State can show finer growing crops than those on the Free Potato Farms in Long Island City, Vegetables of all kinds are in fine shape, and the cultivation is kept up with the utmost care. Results that will surprise agriculturists are expected at the end of the season.

Aside from the opportunity the farms afford the deserving poor to raise enough food to keep them through the winter, the association hopes to instill into the people a love for the country that will lead the masses to leave the tenement. Already the work on the ninety acres under cultivation has taught over a hundred men how much better a living can be ed from the soil than in city employment. It is hoped that country homes can be found for these men and their families where the may become more prosperous. Supt. Igeard estimates the values of the crops at over $3, MISS MEANS YINDICATED. Testimony Showing She Was Not Iati- mate With Actor Hollis. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Aug. 10.—Some time since in a divorce suit of Actor Hollis against his ‘wife, the latter charged him with inti- macy with Miss Pearl Means, daughter of -ex-Mayor Means of Cincinnati. To-day tes- timony was filed showing that at the time mentioned Miss eans was at Yellow Springs, O., where she was a teacher in Antioch Colieg and was not in New York, as charged 1 4 rs. Hollis. President Long ef Antioch liege testified that he .first knew Miss Means in 1883, when she was a “young and frolicsome schoolgirl.“ Her record during the last two years as teacher at the — 5 had been excellent.

CHICAGO, Aug. 10.—After many days of rummaging, searching and prying, the de- tectives who are investigating the astonish- ing house in Chicago built by H. H. Holmes, now under arrest for insurance swindling and believed to have committed dozens of murders, continue to unearth secret rooms and passages. The entire structure is a labyrinth in which no man can find his way about, , As each day goes by and its mysteries continue to be disclosed it seems a veri- table murder factory, designed for killing people by the wholesale and getting rid of their bodies.

The second-story of this remarkable struc- ture contains thirty-five rooms, some which have four doors, and there were at least a dozen ways of going on this sate floor from the front of the building to back. In this way it would have been im- possible to corner him if he were pursued. For days at a time Holmes disa red, eaying he was going to New York, Cin- cinnati or elsewhere, and he would then turn up and describe an im native trip, when as a matter of fact he had all the time been concealed in his house. Holmes was a veritable Bluebeard, and this was his castle. He e his frequently, and they followed each into the unknown.

Whether he was swindling insurance com- anles out of thousands of dollars, plunder- ng young girls, wi ans of their patrimony, or, them, disposing of their bones te the highest .bid- der, he seems to have been actuated all the time by a thirst for gain. But mixed with this was a curious sensuous sentimentalism which made him run after women and squander on them the thousands procured by his crimes, and in several cases he neg- lected opportunities to sell their skeletons, possibly from fear of detection or even from a morbid desire to keep them about the house. This is evidenced by the tufts of women’s hair discovered in the cellar of his castic. the human bones unearthed. by the detect- ives and the elaborate previsions he had made for keeping bodies intact. could have killed a dozen people a day and made away with their bodies in his castle near the Fair Grounds, and all that would be known of them would be that they were mene.

Is it possible, the police have asked, that this man conducted murders upon such a wholesale scale that even the capacities of his r castle were outstripped and that he hurriedly buried bodies in the cellar intending at some future time to throw them into the quick-lime, the retort or the deadly vat? Even a stove which was found in the cellar ofthe Castle seems to have been used by this fiend in furth his ends. It was in this stove that the police found part olf a gold watch chain which has been identified as having belonged to Miss Will- lams. The jeweler who sold it to her and twice repaired it for her, says it is the same chain. Near by was found a bunch of woman's hair and a weman’s shoe. As to all these Holmes has no reasonable explanation. He says the cellar contained gas generators, glass-melting machines and the like. But. those who have examined the retort and the strange tanks say they could never have been used for guch a purpose. He does not say how the human nes, partly consumed and un- related, came into his cellar, further than to state that he dealt in human es, which he says he got from the cemeteries. But he has been unable to give the name of a single individual who sold him such remains, nor has he told what cemeteries were robbed, nor when. Even if bodies were stolen from graves they would not contain pieces uf jewelry, and there was no reason why he should undertake to remove the fiesh when he had hired and paid Chappell for that purpose.

Special to The Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 10.—There is a strong belief in administration circles that the President will offer the position of Jus- tice of the Supreme Court, made vacant by the death of Justice Jackson, to Frederic R. Coudert of New York, if he has not al- y done so. It la understood that he was tendered a similar position on the death of Justice Lamar, but that he declined and it was then filled by the appointment of Sena- tor White of visiana. Again rumor hag it that he was offered the Attorney General- ship at the making up of the cabinet slate in 1893. If so, his declination forced a rearrange- ment of the programme, with the result that the place went to Olney. It is well known that the President has warm admir- spect, not only for Mr. Coudert's but for his personal qualities as 1. Mr. Coudert returns to the President the highest esteem, If the offer ts thus made it will again bear testimony to the President’s persist- ence in seeking to obtain for the country the services of those whom he believes to be best fitted. Should Mr. Coudert accept there would need to be a rearrangement of the circuits by which a Western Judge, probably Justice Brown, would be. called to fill the place made vacant by the death of Justice Jackson.

UNION, Mo., Aug. 10.—The Duestrow trial Closed its fourteenth day to-day, and still the end is not yet. The probabilities are, however, that by next Saturday night the ease will be in the hands of the jury. Yes- terday’s proceedings closed with the State Still in the midst of rebuttal evidence. This must be continued Monday and upon that Gay it is expected the lay witnesses will be finished with. On Tuesday, if predictions be correct, the experts will begin their rt, experts will be allowed to cite authorities to substan- Hate their positions. The experts for the defense were held in by their attorneys and prevented from doing this as much as pos- sible. It is not thought that the State’s will be 80 conservative, and this will open up a wide field for cross-examina- tion the defense wishes to take advan- tage of it. hen after that the defense will have a chance at sgur-rebuttal. The arguments will follow, and they will occupy two days, a day for each side, so that the cipants in the trial may consider themasetves lucky jif Saturday finds th e Yeste nee AG testimony simmered down was in the main that a considerable number of persons never say anything peculiar about Duestrow and did not believe him insane. His drinking qualities were some- what lessened by their claims but there was Bo direct impeachment o of the defense’s witnesses who testified incidents indicating, according to experts for the defense, alcoholic mania or the men- tal equivalent of epilepsy. If the attorneys for the defense are to be believed they are thoroughly satisfied with the condition of their case and main- tain that testimony for weeks of the char- acter submitted yesterday can do them no harm. On the other hand, however, Circuit Attorney Zachritz and his associates ex- prose themselves well pleased with the sit- uation. @ case James Delea, an expert accountant from St. Louis, was the first witness. He had known Duestrow for four or five years, having met him in the saloon around Thir- teenth street and Chouteau avenue. The man was always domineering and seemed to on the theory that his money would bear im out. On objection of Mr. Booth this was stricken out. In the opinion of the witness Duestrow was as sane as he was. Witness related an incident to show Dues- trow’ temperament. One night he passed estrow and Herman Michael on Chouteau avenue. He said “Good evening, gentle- men.“ And Duestrow replied, Get out you Irish—.”’ Then the Witness struck him, and Dues- trow’s hand went back to his hip pocket.

Abandoned by his own flesh and blood tn the direst extremity of his life, murderer Duestrow is indeed in a pitiable plight. In criminal annals such utter abandonment More those who should be near and dear is indeed rare. Perhaps if his mother had lived she might have stood by him in his hour of need. Certain it is that his only sister, Hulda, is far away from the scene of the trial, on pleasure and recreation bent. A Post-Dispatch reporter visited the state- ly mansion of the Duestrows at 2345 Lafay- ette avenue Saturday afternoon, and upon inquiring for Miss Duestrow was told that the young daughter of the hause was travel- ing in the Northern lake regions with her faithful companion, Miss Kate Sauter. They left the city about four weeks ago, just previous to the commencement of the trial at Union. Nothing has been heard from them since their departure by the servants, who are 1 the house for their young mistress. hey were told that they would be notified of the return of the wanderers in time to prepare for them, but that Miss Hulda intended to stay away just as long as travel was pleasant to her. In the meantime the fate of the unfor- tunate brother will have been decided, and she will not de. present to console him in case of his cofviction, or to hold out a sisterly hand of welcome should he be legally freed from the awful charge of double murder. But then the Duestrow family has never been a united one. Of filial love and grati- tude they knew but little. Years ago, when Louis Duestrow, the father of the murderer, married the wife who is now reviled as a common drunkard in extenuation of her son’s bloody crime, he forsook his own mother. The Duestrows lived for years on Ham street, just off Chouteau avenue, and the old residents there remember well the poor old lady’s plaint over her wayward son, who never came to see her in her old days and left her to strangers for sympathy and companionship. In spite of his easily acquired wealth, Louis Duestrow really never gained an en- trance for himself and family into the best German society of the South Side, although he lived right in their — a house more sumptuous than any. hen. Hulda Duestrow was a little girl she went to a proves school on the South Side. But er peculiarities caused her to be shunned by her little companions. The hereditary taint that proved her brother’s curse did not leave her wholly unscathed. In the school she attended were the children of the most prominent German families. Her father went to the Principal of that school and begged her to do something to make his little daughter at home with her school- mates. The Principal gave a children’s party to bring about social relations be- tween the Duestrow child and her play- mates. The courtesy was reciprocated by the Duestrow family, who, in turn, invjted the little guests of the school principal to their own home as the guests of their young daughter, Hulda. The entertainment was lavish, and the children went home and talked for weeks about the many good things they had been given. Yet the little hostess made no headway among them. She is so queer,“ they said, we don't want to have anything to do with her.”’ Thus the young girl became more and more isolated. No wonder, then, that there is no cherish- ing thought in the heart of this young girl for her erring brother, for she has never experienced the joys of companionship with her kind. Shunned by the little ones whose company her father tried to buy for her with his wealth, stunted in intellectual growth, living apart from love and affec- tion, except such as servants can give for sordid gain, why wonder, that the two only survivors of the Duestrow race are sepa- rated at a time when others cling to each other, help each other to bear such terri- ble burdens and verify time and again the 1 that blood is thicker than water.

Two-Year-Old Minna Hendricks Prob- ably Fatally Injured. of the Week from the Brit- : ish Capital. (Special Cable—Copyrighted, 1895, by the Asse sociated Press.) LONDON, Aug. 10,—The gathering of the yachts and yachtsmen at Cowes this week has not been as large or brilliant as cus- tomary. There are two reasons put forward in explanation of this, In the first place there is no doubt that the inclement weather had a great deal to do with marring the yachting meet and dampening the bril- of a victim of law and circumstance by. the average Lord receives here. ‘was to that marine band can play, } thin 2 brilliant and memorable. liancy of the various fetes at and about Cowes. But it is probable that the real rea- son for the lack of bright color at Cowes this week was the fact that the assemblage of aquatic enthusiasts there last year was 80 great on account of the presence of Mr. George Gould’s sloop Vigilant as a com- pétitor againat the Prince of Wales’ cutter Britannia, that the gathering just ended | lost in effect by comparison, Then, again, there were not many Amer- loans present at the races off Cowes this week and there is no denying that the visiting Americans are fast becoming one of the features of every important public function in England. This is „ ag — effect in many ways. It is teaching English- men to appreciate Americans and showing those islanders that war paint and feathers are not necessarily a part of the costume of a citizen of the United States, and it is giving Americans an insight into English customs and character which they could not otherwise obtain. Summed up briefly, it may be said that those who complain of tho “admiration” which some/ Americans are said to manifest towards a Lord can console themselves with the thought that the fairly distinguished American visiting England is now looked up to with far more respect and is received with more real sympathy than The ab- sence of the Americans at Cowes has thrown a wet blanket over the proceedings and everybody is hoping to see a crack single- sticker over here next year hunting for the American cup which Valkyrie III. still ex- pected to capture, in spite of the repeated victories of Defender over Vigilant, the conqueror of Valkyrie II. Incidentally, it may be a a rumor in circulation here that if the De- fender is not success in retaining the America’s Cup a Yankee schooner ll be sent over here to recapture it. This has caused quite a commotion in Pn mas circles for the performance of Mr. R. S. Palmer’s Vampa in these waters this ear and the accomplishments of Mr. John >. Brooke’s Lasca over here last year have clearly demonstrated that Englishmen have A very sat deal to learn from Americans in building, rigging and sailing schooners. Therefore, the yacht designers here have already put on their thinking caps and are figuring on American schooners and their ways. ° It is more than probable that His Im- parses Majesty of Germany Kaiser Wilhelm as enjoyed himself more than any dozen persons have at Cowes. His floating pal- ace the imperial yacht Hohenzollern, was as usual, the attraction of all and the Emperor beamin brown by the sun and full of energy, went here and there and eve most dyspeptic. thing but admiration for the handsome ruler of the German Empire, who seems | to slip into different personalities with the ease that he changes clothes. One day he is a German General, stern, finely trained and posted on all the tricks of war; the next day he is a German Admiral, a British dragoon or British Admiral, a yachtsman or an engineer, a boat builder or a warship constructor, a canal builder or a song writ- er, an author or a musician—everything, but always perfect in his part, well posted on everything. Indeed, it would seem that the Kaiser enjoyed this year’s visit to Cowes more than his previous visits. and goings during the past week have been of a far less formal character than those of other years. Congequently his majesty has been able te devote a great deal more time to yachting and to private visits to the various yachts assembled at Cowes — he has become more popular than ever efore. The first impressions formed here of Em- peror William were that he was a very much stuck-up young man of little or no real ability. Now people are beginning to see that the German Emperor is when the occasion requires it, favorable in the ex- treme, keenly interested in every happen- | ing, a student of almost everything under the sun a hall fellow, well met,“ when nec- essary. But, although Emperor William has been enjoying himself immensely at Cowes, he has at proper intervals been as hard at work as ever on affairs of state, nothing, apparently escaping that untiring min Immediately after his arrival off Cowes he had a private cable laid between the Hohenzollern and the Post-office at Cowes, the latter in turn being connected with London, and the cable to Germany. So his majesty was able to keep himself constantly well informed upon state affairs, and the messages exchanged between himself and representatives in Germany were for- | ward and received as promptly and as safely as if the Emueror had been at Pots- dam instead of at Cowes. The dinner given on board the Hohen- goliern arranged by the Emperor himself be a brilliant —— — but Uke ny others it was marr y His —— invited the elite of yachting so- ciety to his “afternoon tea“ on the prom- enade deck of the imperial yacht. This deck was luxuriously carpeted for the oc- casion and dotted with pretty little tea ta- bles, while the whole vessel was fragrant with the perfume of a rich profusion of choicé flowers sent by Queen Victoria from the. conservatories of Osborne. The fine band of the Hohenzollern played as only and every- possible was done to make the re- is majesty personally received his guests at the Hohenzollern’s gangway, and they in- cluded the Prince and Princess of Wales the Duke of York, the Princess Louise and her husband, the Marquis of Lorne and all the members of aristocracy now at Cowes, particularly those who were introduced to the Emperor during the recent series of festivities at Hamburg and at Kiel, a the occasion of the opening of the ser Wilhelm Canal.

Y., has had a pleasant time in London. When questioned by a representative of the As- sociated Press upon American politics, the veteran editor said: ) : “I think that Mr. Whitney has the best chance of the Democratic nomination. The uestion of a third term was forever set- tled when Gen. Grant's nomination was defeated. Gov. Morton is certain to have the support of New York, and Gov. Mo- gr would have an enormous majority in 0 “As to British litics/" Mr. Halstead said, “I think that England ts drifting tow- ard an imperial policy, which, by\ the bye, seems to be the policy of all Europe with the exception of France.“ Mr. Gladstone’s speech at Chester on Tuesday last, on the Armenian questice not only was received with interest in England, but all through Europe, In many quarters it is looked upon as a sharp slap at Lord Roseberry, the ex-Premier, and as directly supporting Salisbury in any steps the new government may take towards coercing the Porte into oe something towards re- form in Armenia, n the other hand, some of the London newspapers, the Post, for instance, class Mr. Gladstone’s utterances as being “dangerously mischevious” and as likely to kindle civil war in Turkey, which, according to the Post, may read into an European confla tion an — gy India meat a wal of the hor- © scenes witnessed ri th mutiny of 1857. ue But the Times took an entirely different view of the speech, remarking editorially: He did not say a word ¢alenlated to ham- per Lord Salisbury’s govermment. His im- sioned rhetoric did not ge beyond facts. f the speech assists, as it doubtless will, in bringing about the desired consummation, he will be rewarded for an effort unparal- leled even as a mere physical achievement by a man of his age.“ eventually The letter which was published on Wed- nesday last from Mr. Justin McCarthy, ap- pealing for party unity among the Irish members of Parliament has fallen rather flat here, if only from the fact that while | making the appeal Mr. McCarthy took the dded, there is, a hot attack upon opportunity of makin M is not calculated to r.

A. and the —— of the experts claim to fear that the climate of ew York, especially if warm weather prevails, will seriously in- terfere with the chances of the British athletes. A well-known sporting authority, commenting on this subject yesterday, said: I have no doubt that the climate will have some effect upon the English athletes, | but that is one of those things which can- not in any way be avoided. When the Yale team and the Cornell crew came over here they labored under climatic disadvantages and it is but natural to suppose that this had something to do with their defeat, and we should not begin complaining of the climate of New York before the contests. In fact, even if our men are defeated, I can see no just reason for blaming the climate. All such things must be taken into consid- eration when a team from either side crosses the Atlantic. Then, again, I have never yet had actual proof that the climate of New York has seriously injured any of our athletes, while on the other hand no- body will deny that the climate of England is certainly trying to all visitors. ven supposing it is hot.when our men meet the Americans, the latter will feel the heat as much as the Englishmen, and after all, I have seen remarkab! fast time on remarkably hot days, and should not be astonished if this wag to occur again. As to the chances of the English team, I think it a pretty even thing, although I hear that the ndon Athletic Club will be unable to command the services of some of the men most counted on.” The Ku Cheng massacres are now at- tracting the earnest attention of all Europe.

Attorney Haeussler, who is engaged in a commendable effort to revive the Tax- payers’ League and through it to prevent the waste of public money, has struck a snag. The snag is one that has long gtood in the way of municipal reform. Mr. Haeussler says that there are men who would be glad to help the Tax-pay- ers’ League, but dare not be known in it because they are interested in bills be- fore the House and that men have to put up money to secure the passage of bills they are entitled to have passed and the city gets none of the money. All of this is true and it is also true that men—wealthy and influential men of high standing—are interested in and put up money for bills which ought not to be passed and by which they are en- riched at the expense of the people. Mr. Haeussler will find, as every man who has labored for municipal reform has found, that these wealthy and in- fluential citizens are the greatest obsta- cles to reform. They want boodlers in the Municipal Assembly and the city offices because they thrive on boodle. Extravagances and jobbery are parts of the system by which they plunder the public. The fact is, the Tax-payers’ League will find it impossible to accomplish more than the pettiest kind of reform until the wealthy and influential sup- porters of boodling, the men who supply the funds for the election of boodlers and make jobbing combines profitable, are disposed of. Let the Tax-payers’ League devote attention to “the men who are interested in bills.“ — — — i- THE SCHOOL FOR PLUNDER, The severe comment of the Post-Dis- patch on the action of the Chicago Un- versity in practically dismissing Prof. Bemis because he would not mould his economic views to suit the notions of the trust magnates and franchise-grab- bers who endowed the institution, raised euch a storm of criticism that the officers have been forced to essay a defense of the University. President Harper offers a labored ex- planation of Prof. Bemis” departure which not only does not explain, but is in effect a confession. He makes the gen- eral assertion that there ies no restric- tion on the freedom of opinion in the faculty, but follows it with a carefully elaborated distinction between the prop- er attitude of a teagher of astronomy or chemistry and a teacher of political economy, and between political opinions and scientific thought. The inference is that a professor who carefully avoids the moral side of political economy and who refrains from pointing out that pub- lic and private plunder is wrong deals in scientific thought, whereas a profes- nor who opposes robbery under the form of law pas dangerous. unscientific: political opinions Having as a citizen pointed out that the plunder of the people by trusts and corrupt franchise grabs was wrongful, Prof. Bemis was a teacher with politica] opinions calculated to mislead the 5 uth of the land, 0 ' Agt.

When the wave of blue law enforce- ment which started in New York reached Atlantic City, N. J., it struck a ground swell that threatens to demolish it. The Atlantic City authorities, fired with the reflected zeal of Commissioner Roose- velt, energetically took up the task of enforeing the antiquated Sunday law or rather that part of it that related to saloons and amusements. All of the saloon-keepers and amusement caterers who kept open on Sunday were arrested and fined. But the saloon-keepers and amusement men were not satisfied with this half- way method of enforcing the law. They demanded that all the provisions of the Sunday law be enforced. It happens that Atlantic City has a peculiarly an- tiquated and grotesque Sunday law. It prohibits practically everything that makes life worth living from Saturday to Monday. All travel, locomotion by any mode and recreation are forbidden. No one is allowed under tie law to take a walk except to and from church, fo sit down in a public place, to swing in a private hammock or to do any busi- ness. The Mayor and City Solicitor are under arrest for violating the law and Atlantic City resembles a cemetery on Sunday. The Atlantic City people have gone at the Sunday law in the right way. The rule that the best way to repeal a ridicu- lous law is to enforce it applies to the whole law, not a part of it, or a partial enforcement of it. If the people of New York who want their beer on Sunday would insist upon the enforcement of the entire law down to its pettiest interfer- ence with personal liberty and would swear out warrants for those who vio- late its slillest provisions the law would soon be off the statute book. The reduction of blue laws to an ab- surdity is a public service. It shows the folly of legislation which interferes with the personal liberty and rights of any citizen. It shows the necessity of limiting law to the guarding of the rights and liberties of all and the preservation of public order. HEALTH AND HOPE IN THE COUNTRY, The death of Mr. George Perkifis by his own hand, after twenty-three years of useful work as a newspaper man in Cin- cinnati, was inexpressibly sad. “He saved others, himself he could not save,” might with truth be said of such cases as his. City life and a sedentary occupa- tion had undermined a constitution not strong enough to endure the constant and subtle drain, and too late he sought the healing balm of the country with its pure air and freedom. The lesson of such a life and such an end seems to be that it is the duty, as it ought to be the pleasure, of all young men who have been induced from any cause to choose a sedentary occupation and who find it wearing upon them, to make speedy preparations to turn their backs upon the tempter. The cases where newspaper men have had the wis- dom ahd courage to do this, and to either entirely break away from city life of to combine a very large share of Fans life with their former avocatioh, have shown how beneficial such a step can be made. E. P. Roe was a notable ex- ample of such a wholesome combination of country occupations with a literary career. He was as successful as a grower of small fruits as he was in the work of writing popular stories. The pessimism of the day, aided largely by the blighting influence of city life, which brings about a sort of phy- sical torpor that renders its victims averse to manual labor, is responsible for the absurd idea that “all the land has been taken up.” There are to-day many young men whose strength is being surely sapped by sedentary occupations who will assure you that they would gladly get out into the country, but the land grabber has taken all the land that is worth having. It is true thé land grab- ber has been abroad to such an extent that one railroad company alone in its possession lands that it would take three men three years to ride across at the rate of twenty miles a day. But even E z . 4 7 never dictate the least detail of | perhaps @.liability which invention and skill cannot wholly guard against, but it does seem that progress and invention brought to a high state of perfection. Our knowledge of the sea and the ocean paths of commerce is thorough. Nleo- trical invention enables every vessel to have an efficient lighting system for search and signal purposes. Officers of vessels can now discover objects and make themselves understood to others at great distances. We have improved foghorns for the substitution of noise for light signals when necessary. It would seem that a system of signals could be devised that would make col- lisions, except as a result of criminal carelessness, impossible. But with all of these advantages the danger of collision seems to be increasing instead of diminishing. With the vaat improvements in the construction of ships it has come to be the principal danger of ocean traffic. Seamanship has not only fafled to keep pace with modern progress, but one is sometimes led to wonder if it has not become a lost art. ee i Some cautious feelers are being thrown out in the Republican press regarding Mr. Reed's intention to tinker the tariff in case he is elected Speaker. There is nothing in it, however, except a scheme to Jolly“ the protectionists, with a view to more fat frying in next year’s cam- paign. It is an open secret that the Republican majority in the next Con- gress has pledged itself in advance to the big manufacturing interests not to disturb existing conditions. In return for this pledge the manufacturers agreed to advance wages and stimulate a busi- ness revival, This they have been doing for several months. : . ' * There is inherent probability in the' re- port that President Cleveland will ap- point Mr. Olney to the vacant place on the Bench of the United States Supreme Court. Of all men in the United States, Democrats or Republicans, the one man whose appointment as Associate Justice would be most offensive to Democrats is Mr. Olney. He would strengthen the Su- preme Court in the worst tendencies to which it has recently succumbed. He would make the Court more than ever the citadel of the plutocrats, the trusts and the corporations. Hence the likelihood of his appointment by Mr. Cleveland. —_—_-” -_ Gov. Clarke of Arkansas said the other day to Maj. Davidson ef the Frisco road: “You have a road which was built for $10,000 per mile, bonded for $28,000 per mile, and besides the stock dividends compel the people to pay interest on these fictitiously fixed charges and tremendous salaries for officers; and that being the case, I think it our right and duty to tax this capacity which the roads have for levying an unjust tribute on the people.” So the Frisco road gets no reduction of its assessment in Arkansas. There is no way of teaching most railroads justice except through taxation. —- — The relations between the Colonnas are again strained. This comes of an American girl marrying a foreign title in exchange for her wealth. But the power of example is generally lost in such cases. Women will marry when and where they please, regardless of consequences, na -_ — en —_ n „ Mrs. Barnum's example of keeping her fortune where she can control it herself instead of passing it over to her Grecian nobleman is a good example for other rich American women who marry titles. Such an example, however, it must be admitted, would greatly decrease thé number of un-American weddings. —_—_” . The fact that the Rockefellers are compromising the suits against them by the payment of large sums of money is a fairly good indication that they have been the receivers and beneficiaries of property which did not rightfully belong to them. This is one way of getting rich fast. ~ r oe 1 Lightning has photographed trees on the backs of two boys on Long Island.

It is said that Lady Frere once went to | meet her husband at a railway station ac- companied by a new servant, whom she ‘gent to look for Sir Bartle Frere when the train had arrived.

NEW WARD AT QUARANTINE. It Will Be Germ Proof and Kept Thor- oughly Clean. Quarantine is to have at least one new germ-proof ward. Three of the existing frame wards will be repaired by the Quar- antine carpenter, and the remaining two will be torn down. When Superintendent Woodruff took charge he found the old frame wards in a terrible condition. Patients who had re- covered from small-pox were stricken with septicaemia or bloo -poisoning, contracted from the septic germs in the walis and floors. One of them, Mr. Haas, is still in a serious condition, and has been sick three months from this cause. It was these conditions that led to the death rate being so high. Dr. Woodruff promptly moved the patients to the main brick buildi and the death rate dropped from about of per cent to 10 per cent. On his report to Health Commissioner Starkloff an appropriation of $1,800 was secured for new wards. Friday the Healzh Commissioner, Chief Sanitary Officer and Building Commissioner visited Quarantine. It was decided to spend all the money available on one new ward, and temporar- ily repair three of the others. It will be x30 feet, provided with aniteid floor and plastered walls and ceilin make it thoroughly aseptic, lurking places for disease germs. accommo- JERE FRUIN RESIGNS.

Revs. H. C. Hart and L. A. Magann, who were members of the St. Louis District Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, and held memberships in First Church, corner of Glasgow avenue and Dayton street, have left the communion and ministry of the M. E. Church South, and united with and sought orders in the Methodist Episcopal Church North, The cause was an incident during the last sesion of the St. Louis District Confer- ence over which Dr. Messick presided. When the question of renewing the licenses of local preachers came up, Dr. Messick rule@ that according to the action of the last General Conference of the church the District Conference was not authorized to renew their licenses. A vote taken stood 23 to 22 against giving them licenses. This excluded them from the ministry of the M. E. Church, South, They will soon be given orders in the M. E. Church, North.

The champion was but perfectly cool, Fitzsimmons was almost crazy with rage and made desperate efforts to get at the champion. A squad of policemen were telephoned and the bar room was cleared out.

The huge granite columns and hundreds of cubi¢ feet of plate glass, comprising the front wall of the Fagin Building, will soon disappear, it having been decided to re- construct the building. The front wall will be entirely changed and rebuilt of buff brick, with terra cotta trimmings. Over $150,000 will be expended in improving the building. This is the first authentic information regarding the improvement of this struc- ture since its sale to the Chicago syndi- cate, represented by the Nelson & Mers- man ty dealers of this city. Mr. Mersman left for Chicago Thursday to perfect arrangements for the improve- ment. Plans drawn by Kirchner & Kirch- ner, architects, were submitted and adopt- ed. The new structure will be ten stories high. The front wall will be ten feet in thickness and will be highly ornamented with terra cotta trimmings. The plans of the improvement are entirely original. Mr. Kirchner h fixed matters so as the new wall can be trected without wrecking the present wall. The brick will be laid around the granite, covering it entirely. The side wall will not be touched, except to add twelve feet for the additional story. They are unusually heavy and able to carry twice the present weight. One of the chief alterations will be to con- struct a magnificent entrance, faced with Italian marble with mosaic fiooring. In- stead of two elevators four will carry the tenants up and down. Every convenience necessary for a first-class office building will be introduced in the remodeled struc- ture. Ollve street renting property continues in demand. Property owners on this street are beginning to see that first-class im- provements only can bring the proper re- turns. As a result the old Pope’s Theater Building has disappeared as did likewise the structure at Bighth and Olive. Olive street traffic is badly injured by these new building enterprises. Half of the street is used in piling up old material. and more than one merchant is objecting, but the Board of Public Improvements Ras, and it is said wisely given its O. K.“ in the mat- ter. The blockade will increase when work is commenced on the new Fagin building, which will be very soon. nother change which is probable, is in the name of the structure. At present the building is being spoken of as the “Old Fagin,” although, comparatively speak- ing, itis new. It was planned by Architect Clarke and completed in 1889 at a cost of $250,000. Owing to the queer plans of the interior it was regarded as a bad investment by realty dealers generally. The present owners bought it for $450,000, a bargain, considering the value of the ground, viz.: $860,000. When reconstructed it will be one of the most desirable office buildings in the city. The halls will be tiled. with marble wainscoting on either side. The carved wooden ceilings and walls which make the interior so conspicu- ous at present, will be replaced with the ordinary plaster. Members of a prominent local fraternity are talking about leasing the upper two stories for lodge purposes. Should this be done the plans will likely be changed and large and small halls provided for. The — building will be completéd by January | EXPOSITION BUILDING ARCADE. Property-Owners Devising a Scheme to Open Locust Street. During the past week considerable dis- cussion has been going on among the Locust street property owners regarding the open- ing of that thoroughfare at ourteenth street. The Exposition Building is the ob- struction, but after an investigation the interested parties claim that it can be easily overcome. The architect of the Expositon mee says that an arcade could be con- struct through the building without in- terfering with the Music Hall. The plans for an arcade corresponding in width to the street have been drawn, and it remains with the Exposition management whether or not it will be adopted. President Cul- ver of the Wrought [ron Range l Brown of the Hamilton-Brown and the Anderson-Wade ty Co., who own. the Columbia Building on Locust street, are the leaders in the movement. Owing to the absence of many of the Locust street property owners from the city, no immediate definite action will be taken, but everything will be put in such a shape as to cause no unnecessary delay when they return. It is proposed to make the arcade a sou of steady income to the Exposition an Music all Association by constructing stores on either side. At present St. is cannot boast of an arcade. The first to be opened will be the Terminal Hotel Arcade, cutting through the hotel, being the west- ern portion of the Union Station Building. CHESTNUT ST. IMPROVEMENTS.

An Unusually Large Number of Realty Deals Closed. Last week was a record-breaker in realty circles here. Two of the largest loans of the season were made, and one of the largest sales was closed. The demand for resi- dence property increased over that of the past week. The first big deal of the week was a loan of $250,000 made by M. A. Wolf & Co. at 4% er cent to Chicago parties, with which they ntend erecting a seven-story building in this city. Chas. H. Turner and Nelson & Mersman followed with the sale of the Lindell Hotel, from the Boston Ground Rent Co. and others to the Washington Realty Co., composed of local capitalists, for $532,- 500. Mr. Turner then made a loan of $450,- 000 on the property at 4% per cent, which the largest loan ever made in this city at that rate of interest. Many other sales of less prominence were closed, ¢ prices being obtained. The demand for suburban property con- tinues. Farrar & Tate reposted Batu that during the past four weeks they sold 300 lots in Shrewsbury rk. present thirty new residences are being erected in this beautiful sub-division. One of the sensations of the week to south- west property owners was the announce- ment in Saturday’s Post-Dispatch of the Anderson-Wade Real Estate Co.’s deal to improve 350 acres, or 75.000 front feet of und lying between King’s highway and ernod avenue and the city Umits.

A Study of Franklin Avenue’s Busy Scenes on a Saturday Night. That, Crowded and Bustling Thoroughfare Is the Bowery of St. Louis. More Human Nature to the Square Foot Than Any- where Else in Town—Typical Snap-Shots. Franklin avenue is a distinct institution m St. Louis There is no other street like it. It is what the Bowery is to New York on a maller scale. It is in the height or its glory on Saturday nichts. Then is the time to see it. Nine o'clock is high-tide, but an hour later there are more people visible than at midday on Olive street. And the pedestrians are fearfully and wonderfully mixed as to race, color and conditton, phes- ent as well as previous. » Reference is had to that part of Frank- lin avenue between Sixth and Fourteenth streets. West of Fourteenth the people are coming having an ob- jective shop-keepers depend more on local than transient trade. East of —_ oa There, too, the buyers of the poorer class, with whom a dollar must go ite furthest, abound. There, too, go hundreds who have no shopping to do—many with no money to sh with—go there to see and be seen, to while away an hour, to be with the throng according to man's gregarious instincts, to wish for things so near and yet so far—re- moved only by a thickness of glass and the fear of the law. A motly crowd it is, old and young of both sexes, of all shades of color, of many grades of social standing, with a fair proportion of those of none at all. Anything can be obtained on Franklin av- enue, from a nutmeg 1 to a burglar- proof safe, from a needle to an anchor,.from a spool of thread to a bridal trousseau, from @ shave to a cut throat, from a fight to a fiirtation—and the three last are attamable even to the moneyless.

That reads like an Irish bull, Indeed, one how all the the idea has never these goods are ever car always there day after day in the same po- sitions, the stores are o late and ,. and it is only the midnight prowler. who ever sees business in a state of suspension. There are shoe stores with more stock hanging from hooks, like enormous and un- heard of strings of fish, and lying in boxes on the sidewalk, than many stores have in the inside. All kinds of contrivances are brought into requisition to hold goods. Hats shirts, underwear, waists, all manner of things are thrown higgledy, piggedly into boxes, baskets, wire catch-alls, anything that will hold them, and sold from the side- walk. A man can buy a complete outfit without entering a store. He can w two blocks and furnish a house by pur- chasing ‘‘on the curb.” To judge by the signs Franklin avenue shopkeepers do business purely for amuse- ment or as philanthropists, for the welfare of the pub ic. None works for profit. Everybody is selling at closing out the stock, or prices are cut in k. “Cut down sale,” “bargains,” “below cost,” are the signs which greet one at step. The tin shop man has everything that ever was or ever will be made of that metal outside 4 his store front, and a hundred things that are not of tin. 1 shirt one customer that is regard veensware, furniture, dry 8, „ groceries, everything that is en, or used in Cut economy is fo the sign is viated to U R _—-— und, even Next.“ Cheapness is not considered a recommen- dation to whiskies and wines by the - , but it is on Franklin avenue.

Some smaller still carry their store with them in the shape of a tray supported by a strap from the neck. One thing can be said of these merchan they are always to be found behind their counters.

There are all kinds of Sights and ali kinds of people on Franklin avenue. One of the queer sights there is a trio of negro street evangelists. The negro is nothing if not imitative, and this trio puts up a very good imitation of the Pentecostal band which infested the — . — summer. Only, like many other imitations, they go be- ond the original. They mise eternal iness or torment, explicitly and with- reserve, to their hearers, as the ac- credited agents of their Master, according to whether the believer or the scoffer pre- valle in the congregation; and they sing and exhort in old-time camp-meeting style. e blind beggar, who nds an audi- Pine or blows a melancholy tune on a ancholy flute, hag learned that the idle unterer has more time to be charitable than the bustiing man of business, and that the laborer, mechanic, seamStréss and shop-girl will give more readily than the man of means or the woman of fashion. So he abounds on Franklin avenue. At the mouth of alleys enterprising col- ored caterers serve fried fis, crawfish, pig’s feet and pie on frail lunch stands. The ubiquitous weinerwurst and “red hot’? man cries his wares and does not cry in vain. The man with the lung testing machine and he with the galvanic battery set up their stands, and have a crowd and custom too at the first announcement that they are ready for business. An idle crowd will stop for anything, and an idle crowd on a Saturday night will e d their money for anything. It is worth anybody’s while to spend an hour on Franklin avenue be- tween 9 and 10 o’clock on any Saturday evening. It may furnish food for thought for Sunday. e fashionable .West End preacher might go there for a text. He might be able to preach to humanity of humanity the better next day. Certainly he could’ learn more of the subject in an hour so spent than in ten years among his parish- loners. The philosopher might find there more than he has dreamed of in his philos- ophy. There is more to be seen, more to be heard, more to be learned, than can be conveyed in cold ‘ype, provided the visitor has the faculty of seeing, hearing and . All he has to do is to delve just a little below the surface and he may write 2 book and give his enemies a chance at N. Everything goes on Franklin avenue.

The Young Attorneys to Try a Tour- Hundred Mile Walk. EQUIPPED FOR EVERYTHING. | One Way to Spend a Three-Weeks’ Va- cation Which Would Not Attract Many City Folk. Charles E. Wise, Frank Haskins and James A. Carr, three well-known young attorneys, as strong and sturdy in body as they are active in mind, begin a 400-mile walk at 9 o’clock. this morning. This is their way of enjoying a three weeks’ tion. They will hunt and fish and their outfit with them through the wilds of Southern Missouri from Arcadia to Spring- eld. The start will be made from Mr. Wise’s house, o. 30.4 Lindell boulevard. The respectable tramp trio will board a G d avenue electric car and ride to the end of the Scullin line in Carondelet. There they will bid a long farewell to all kinds of con- ve ces and set out for Arcadia. ose who may see the travelers making their way through-the city cannot mistake them. ach has a stalwart form and a sharp legal face. The young men have not seen a razor for a week, for they wanted to have a stubble on their faces of suffi- cient growth to resist the sun. They have succeeded admirably in this. Their outfits will be exactly alike and will contain every- thing they will n Each will carry on his back a large roomy knapsack, and in it will be ammunition for shotguns and revolvers, two heavy blankets and plenty of tackle. The uniforms of the three attorneys would better become scouts in Jackson's Hole than practitioners in the great tribunals of the land. A white sweat- er, a canvas coat, homespun trousers, a air of heavy hunting shoes and a straw at will so completely disguise the ad- venturers that their own mothers would scarcely know them. A shotgun of suffi- cient calibre to bring down the biggest game in the Ozarks will rest on each man’s shoul- der. In each man’s pocket will be a Colt’s revolver, reserved for outlaws and back- woods vagabonds who may be unniannerly or aggressive. A cartridge belt will com- plete the equipment. When the conductor shouts “all out” near the southern city limits, the lawyers will begin their journey without delay. Each has a new hat staked on their ability to reach Arcadia in three days. Arcadia is ninety miles due south of St. Louis on the Iron Mountain railroad, and a skeptical brother attorney thinks that the tramps cannot reach it by Tuesday evening. They are confident that they. can travel thirty miles a day and they expect to enter the lovely Arcadia Valley several hours ahead of time. They may rest there awhile to admire the scenery and gird themselves for what is little less than a plunge into a dark conti- nent. From Arcadia to Hartville, 350 miles west, there is a tler of counties whose primeval wildernesses and mountain tast- nesses are unmarred by a single rail Some of the counties, 1 — — have, no highways, and the velers will ha to trudge along paths trails.

They do not intend to send home their game. What they will not eat they will give away to persons worse off than them- selves. The undertaking is a bold one. Ozark Mountains are famous hunting grounds and are noted as well for their outlaws. The absence of railroads and other modern means of travel will make a return as difficult as a forward march, once they get well out of Arcadia. They ex- pect to arrive in Springfield, which is fur- ther West than Hartville, about September 1. They will have their photographs taken to immortalise their “tough” a arance after their mountain 3 They will then shave, don city clothes, board a Pull- man car and discuss thelr experiences as they speed homeward. A NOTED SBDALIAN’ GONE. Death of John R Barrett, a Prominent Central Missouri Citizen. The Special to The Post-Dispatch. SEDALIA, Mo., Aug. 10.—John R. Bar- rett, for many years one of the wealthiest and most prominent citizens of Sedalia and Central Misscuri, died this afternoon. He was born in Washington County, New Yor February 26, 1834 e leaves a wife an cause of his death was Bright’s disease. He was one of the original directors of the Tebo and Neosha lroad, the begin- ning of the Missouri, Kansas and Texas, and was for years a director in the latter. The site of the proposed State Capitol is on his magnificent farm of 700 acres in the western part of the city. Mr. Barrett was a director in the defunct First National Bank, and its suspension involved him in endless litigation. The troubles connected therewith rapidly hastened his death. — — , HAS LEAVES SIX FEET IN DIAMETER. > a ee „ . e 7 4 4 te ty wt > — — + » 4 » Ar 2 * 4 * 65 ‘ N n ae Are claimed to have tion, though often weed ao worth, intrinsic value. of wor laws," our roducts of a with the stock that has character. utation. ously, are different.

About two minutes elapsed before he descried his wife stretched upon the street, her wheel by her side. Mrs. Rubelmann had to be supported home by her husband, to whom she stated that a big negro had struck her, knocking her from her bicycle.

There was a big row at Thirteenth and Park avenue last night about 11:15 o' clock, in which revolvers and knives were used. One man was stabbed in the back and possi- bly another. The police learned of it by the arrival of one of the victims at the sary.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Aug. 10.—Monday will be the beginning of the fourth week of the trial of Theodore Durrant for the murder of Blanche Lamont, and the only furymen has been the selection of nine urymen to try the case. It is generadly elieved Judge Murphy will allow the chal- lenge of District Attorney and will relieve Juror Brown upon his record in the United States District Court in the Howell coun- terfeiting case. Still it is believed the jury-box will be filled next week. It is said that Durrant’s hopes lie in convincing the jury of his innocence, and not on the technical points. The prospects are that the case will be contemplated. The Sheriff fears that some attempt may be made to harm Durrant by some crank desirous of 98988 notoriety. Every precaution taken to prevent any assault. UNDER TONS OF DEBRIS. Gruesome Search for Bodies in the Collapsed New York Building. NEW YORK, Aug. 10.—The work of clear- ing away the ruins of the collapsed build- ing at West Broadway and West Third street and the search for the bodies of nine missing men supposed to be beneath the debris were continued throughout last night and this morning without cessation. The work will probably not be finished within two days. The list of the missing is as follows: Patrick Cashin, Brooklyn; James Grisso, New York: Edward Hanley, Brooklyn; Wm. Hayes, Brooklyn; Peter Morini, New York; Thomas McGuire, Jersey City; John Mur- hy, Brooklyn; Christopher Rorke, Brook- iva; George Smith, iron worker, New York. The body of the ninth victim was discov- ered in the ruins near the north wall: It was covered by tons of plaster. A gang of men was at once put to work removing the debris from the dy. Jos. Guider, who had the contract for the plaster work of the collapsed building, was arrested by order of Coroner Fitzpatrick this afternoon. CLUBBED BY POLICEMEN. Two Cases Which Call for Investiga- tion by the Board. George Herman, a river man, of 121 Lom- bard street, was severely clubbed by Police- man Sears at II o'clock last night. Herman was guilty of the heinous offense of can- ning beer. Herman says he was at home when Of- ficers Sears and Murphy came after him— he knows not why—and proceeded to club him. Officer Sears admitted the clubbing, saying Herman resisted. He admitted that Herman was in his own house when ar- rested, but said he ran in there when caught caning on the street with two women. While the stories of Sears and Herman conflict, the fact was very apparent that Herman had been terribly beaten. There were two deep cuts, nga the bone, and the man bled frightfully. Dr. Drace had just sewed his head up when an old “‘tarrier,”’ Pat Dean, who lives on Sixteenth street, near Cass avenue, aor in, escorted by a policeman. He said an unknown policeman had been having fun with him by clubbing him on the legs on Seventeenth street, near OFallon, until he was unable to walk. He reported the case at the Third District Station, and was sent to the Dispensary in a patrol wagon. He did not know why he had been clubbed. Whatever the offense, the policeman whe used the hickory did not think enough of it to arrest the man. And Saturday night was not a particularly good night for clubbing, either.

FORT SMITH, Ark., Aug. -10.—Cherokee Bill was convicted in the United States Court this morning of the murder of Larry Keating, guard at the United States Jail, July 2. The jury was out only thirteen minutes. Prisoners on Murder Row had formed a plot to escape and two pistols had been fur- nished them, but guards discovered one before the outbreak was made. Cherokee Bill shot Keating as the prisoners were be- ing locked up because Keating refused to throw up his hands and allow the prisoner to get his pistol. The prisoners waited to secure the keys and Cherokee Bill was brought into submission after thirty shots had en fired. His defense was insanity and also that Keating was killed by a stray bullet fired by one of the guards. It was proved though that Keating was a corpse before a shot had been fired by the rds. Seven guards were in charge of herokee Bill while in the court room and being taken to and from jail. He was insolently defiant and indifferent until a let- ter he wrote and tried to smuggle out of jail a week before the killing, was introduced. It stated that one of the guards would be killed the next week. Then he wilted and hung his head. He did not appear to be moved any by the verdict. e was in a very ugly mood this morning and would have ven the guards much trouble had he been given any liberty. Judge Parker will pass sentence on him Monday. THE GRATE GAYE WAY. Bircher Dyer Precipitated Twenty Feet Into a Coal Cellar. An insecure cellar grate in front of Chas. Dalton's saloon, 533 South Ewing avenue, re- sulted in the serious injuring of Bircher Dyer, 5089 South Ewing avenue at 7 o'clock last night. Dyer was standing on the grat- ing talking to some friends. Suddenly his friends were horrified to see Dyer drop out of sight through the cellar hole. The cellar is about > gem 4 feet deep and used for the storage of coal. It is shut off from the remainder of the cellar by a wooden partition. When the crowd went to his rescue it was discovered that the door of the place was locked and the bar-keeper did not know where the key was. Finally an entrance was forced and Dyer was car- ried to his home. Dr. Downes, $11 South Ewing avenue, ronounced his injuries serious. Sais collar ne was dislocated and his right leg broken. He also received internal injuries. It is claimed that the accident was due to the failure of the owner of the property. to have the grating properly fastened. 1 MURDEROUS AX.

C., Aug. 10.—Admiral The Detroit left Shanghai this morning for a sister ship to cruiser, practicall however, has a slight n which, y unde as at last awakened to the go to . in the service, fact that there is something — Foo Choo which needs nto, resence of p detween the State Department and Minister Denby. Two or three have been exchanged between Secretary Herbert and the Navy Department. Nothing but the sharpest kind of a spur from the Ad- skin or mar his amiable and self-sufficient satisfaction. The action of the American Colony at Shanghai in protesting strongly against American interests bein * Age ond ed in the Sechun inquiry by the British Con- sul is clear proof that Minister Denby’s conduct is condemned here by those who know the situation t. Some of the friends and apologists of t the stories which Minister Denby re have been brought back of his close friend- ship and intimacy with Li Hung Chang and the value to the United States of this intimacy and friendship. He and Minister Denby see each other about ance in twelve months and the visit is purely formal. Li is a thorough student of human nature meets him. He is not deceived by outward appearances and knows a good deal more than an Oriental Heathen can be expected to know. So much for the intimacy and ree Chang. But little reaches the Western world of the real inside of diplomatic litics and intrigue. They go on within the walls of the city of. Peking. Only one man in that hotbed of diplomatic intrigue has been for years the superior of Sir Robert Hart, as well as of every British Ambassador who has held that post. That one man is Count Cassini, Russian Ambassador to Peking. He is the only man who is thoroughly master of the far East question.It was he who prevented Japan from reaching Peking and who engineered the Russo-Chinese loan. It is he alone of whom Great Britian stands in dread at the court of the Chinese Emperor. The Count is a true friend and admirer of the United States. In this he follows the external] policy of Russia since the days of the great Alexander. There are interesting documents, forgotten by all but the most erudite students and unknown to officials of the State Department, lead- ing as far back as the existence of Franklin in Paris, which bear out this assertion. It is to be re tted that Mr. Denb has not availed himself of the friends p of Count Cassini for America rather than tie himself to the aproristrings of Great Brit- ain’s commercial policy. Count Cassini could tell him the means to be pursued to put an end to Missionary outrages once for all. The Tsung Li Yamen know how to stop them when they want to. Count Cassini holds that the only way to stop outrages against missionaries or outrages of any sort in the interior of China is te send troops to seize and decapitate the real offenders and then publicly disgrace the officials who have permitted the offense.

A Skeleton and a Tobacco Box Settles Murder Mystery. and recognizes a man of brains when he Special to de Post-Dispatch. WICHIrA, Kan., Aug. 10.—An old murder mystery was solved to-day by the finding of the remains of a human skeleton and an old tobacco box of unique construction in the cottonwood grove between first and sec- ond streets on the Ar River, where the bank had been washed away by the re- cent high waters. The box, which is fash- ioned out of horn, has been itively identi- fled by Fred Sowers, who edited the Wichita Vidette in the early 70’s, as having belo to a United States Marshal, who went by the name of “Dutch Bilk.“ ‘Dutch Billl’’ began his career as a Mar- shal when Wichita was only a little frontier town and he was a terror to the evildoers of that time. Frequent attempts were to assassinate him and in y, 1871, his ene- mies inveigled him mto a saloon while he was tipsy. That was the last seen of him and it has alwa been believed that he was murderéd, 4 some find estab- lishes the fact beyond question. A NEW COUNTRY.

This, together with the liber- ality of the management on the grounds, renders Queen City Park popular, and it is visited by a larger concourse of people every year. The entertainments are varied, and about the same in character that are enjoyed at other camps. The best talent in the lecture field is — and clergymen from lib- eral churc York are not unfrequently employed here. Col. Robert G. Ingersoll is one of the stars who attracts immense crowds, and people come long distances to enjoy his orations and his agnosticisms. He is ex- pected here soon to lecture. — Literary and social entertainments are the rule every evening, and every phase of mediumship is represented here, except, perhaps, that of materialization. As this is the first week or opening of the season it is fair to presume that will be presented clusion that: tion as-at present practiced and understood, should not be at- tempted in promiscuous audiences, where af: strangers and skeptics cannot be excluded. 4 N Not that 1 doubt the genuineness of this * phaze of medſumship under the proper con- 7 ditions and in the presence of some medi- a ums. I think I have a right to say I know i}! it is genuine. But it is more easily counterfeited than any other phase, and furnishes no better evidence of the truths of spiritualism than many ot. phases, which no one need be deceived by, if they exercise the same judg- ment they would to determine a fact in mathematics or any other science. But no one should attempt to investigate this most sacred and interesting phenomena that has not the leisure, the proper appli- ances and the entire control of the medium curing the investigation. Not to prevent fraud only, but to know that proper condi- tions exist and are maintained during the whole seance. This can be done at one’s own home, but not without care and much extra expense. Mediums that have developed this phase and are sure of it, can be employed and sat- isfaction insured. But promiscuous sittings for an hour or two with strangers, skeptics and fraud hunters furnish no satisfactory results to honest, sincere investigators, and a moment’s consideration ought to convince any one that no positive proofs can be es- tablished in that way without the expendit- ure of more time and money than one in a hundred is disposed to spend. Hence the question in the minds of thousands of hon- est investigators remains unsettled, and is often referred to by scoffers and skeptits 22 evidence of the fallacy of spiritual- There are many other phases w equatiy important which’ cannot tent troverted nor counterfeited, and carry with them the positive proof that the manifesta. tions come from some unknown and unseen inelligence, which: for the want of a better name ig recognized as spirit power. p presence and A comparatively new phenomena is be- coming popular, and is attracting much at- tention—that of n artistic pictures on paper, slates or porcelain, a result ob- tained in the presence of a few mediums only in twenty or thirty minutes.

But in the crude unorganized condition modern spiritualism finds itself in to-day, with an experience of less than fifty years, it is not to be expected that it will be en- tirely free from errors, frauds and misappre- hension, when it is known to have encoun- , tered the opposition of all sects and de- nominations in Christendom, and often a wide difference of opinon among its ad- herents. But as morality, education and the love of humanity are the constituent rinciples upon which spiritual philosophy 4s established, judging from the advance ? that has been made in the last half century it is fair to conclude that the time is not A far distant when these errors and incon- 9 sistencies will be eradicated. One object a, to be accomplished by the National Spiritual * Organizationn and these camp meetings is 7 to compare notes, correct errors and sys- tematize theories for the genera advance- ment of the cause.

LOTTIE COLLINS’ NEW SONG. “J Went to Paris With Papa“ ‘Capti- vating the Britons. Lottie Collins, who is in London, has made another hit with a song which promises to become another Ta-ra-ra-boom-de-ay' for her.

The chorus goes: I went to Paris with papa, to see what kind the Frenchmen are. Buch 1 A they ve got. which Englishmen ave not. You should to Paris go; you learn so very much, you know.

A seat in Parliament as a wedding pres- ent is a novel departure, and one ot the many incidents which go to relieve the bit- terness of the present English electoral contest. The Hon. George Allsopp was the Unionist candidate in the city of Worces- ter. He had arranged to be married in ‘London on Wednesday, and the chivalrous Mayor of Worcester fixed upon the Monday preceding the wedding as the polling day. Mr Allsopp's popularity and the moving picture of his bride in tears on her mar- riage day were too much for the suscepti- ble hearts of the voters of Worcester, and when Mr. Allsopp took his bride to church two days later he was a Member of Parlia- ment, elected by a handsome majority. Politics and love may combine, but it would seem from the Rev. Robert Thom- son's experiment that politics and religion will not mix. This divine announced -him- self as an independent candidate for one of the divisions of Glasgow. He held his election meetings in his own church, and put D. V.“ (“Deo volente; God willing’) prominently in his invitations to the vot- ers. It ts said that he inserted the same let- ters in the manuscript of an address which he had printed, but the proofreader, think- ing that D. V. should be in small capitals, put the letters 8. C.“ (small capitals) in the margin for the printer’s guidance. The latter misunderst however, and substi- tuted “S. C.“ The address appeared in this way, and his opponents at once de- clared that the letters meant “Satan con- senting.”’ A bill making it lawful for a man to DYING SOLDIERS OP FRANCE. Disease Killing the Troops, Sent to Madagascar. Written for The Sunday Post-Dispatch. It looks as if the French war in Mada- gascar might after all be a failure. Not from lack of valor in the French troops or from defects in their equipment, but simply and solely because the army is going through a siege of disease and experiencing a death rate that is almost without prece- dent in the annals of war. When the ex- pedition left France several authorities said that the greatest enemy the soldiers would have to fight would be, not the insurgent Madagascans, but “Generals For- est and Fever.“ The trouble began at the very outset, for the transport ships were horribly over- crowded and not in good sanitary condition. On the transport ship Stamboul disease and sickness gained such headway that be- fore Madegascar was reached of the soldiers had died of meningitis. There was almost as great fatality ard the other vessels of the fleet. Man after man suc- cumbed to the insufficient accommodations and the lack of provision for even ordinary comfort. Nevertheless once on Madagascan soil a far worse state of —— 5 developed. The transports were unlo and the men put on shore, and then it was found that abso- lutely no preparations had been made to re- ceive them.

They are all brought home, admired and “reminisced” over for a few days. Then, as a rule, they are put up on the closet shelf and forgotten. Now, if one must collect souvenirs they should be put to some good use. The young]. person who is at the seashore this summer and is fond of the place may collect her souvenirs with a view to making a sea- shore corner in her home in town. Let her | Te the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. spend hours, if she will, strolling up and Gown the beach in search of those shining little shells which the children call “toe- nails.” If she finds enough of them they may be strung on strips of silk of rubber and form a shell portiere to screen her sea- shore corner from the rest of the room. The effect of the atrings of transparent Shells is odd, but extremely good. If she is interested in photography and has a camera with her she can do much towards aGding interest to her seashore corner by taking snap-shots here and there of all her favorite nooks, corners and views. ‘These she can mount herself on thick water-color paper, not forgetting to put any special date underneath which will recall a pleasant day or hour spent there. Frame the pictures in pressed seaweed or small shells and cov- er the entire wall of one side of the corner with them. Have a divan for the most conspicuous piece of furniture. This should have a fish net draped above it, and be covered with an old-fashioned quilt or rug bought of one of the women natives. Many times the old patch-work quilts or home-made silk rugs show very effective coloring. The pillows banked on the divan should covered with fine canvas or sail cloth embroidered with marine scenes. If she happens to be a sentimental young person she might have one pillow among her collection covered with the silk neckties which once were the property of the young men she met while away. Autograph fans are another proper dec- oration for this corner. A big palm leaf fan is as good as any for this purpose. Have all the friends write their names upon it. Tie the handle with a big bow of ribbon and fasten it to the wall. If the place where one is staying boasts of any antique — one can pic up any number of q t old things for corner. If they must have some personal suggestion one might induce the captain who has taken her out sailing summer to give or sell her the anchor which belongs to his boat. Properly gilded this will make an effective corner piece. The tennis net may also be used as decora- tion, and the tennis rackets should occupy lace in this room.

As a con- cession to fashion enormous sleeves are worn pF little hats or caps are \al- ways jaunty. The corset controversy has been settled by the opposing factions in a manner which satisfies everybody. The 4 person who out for a spin in the is, and whose first object ig to be seen, wears corsets. The women who ride miles every day and who have joined the cycling ex- editions which have gone out from the arge cities di their corsets with their skirts and secure perfect comfort as the first requisite of a pleasant trip. For such excursions a combination suit of flannel ! worn under e waists d bloomers an this, with a warmth and bined efforts of all of whom have DBitterly op ventional figure on the wh to one of these, a ceinture just deep enoug to sustain the waistband of the knicker- bockers, is all that can be allowed.

Knickerbockers and an Eton acket may be bought ready made for about 4 These, with a leather ceinture to replace a corset, a wide sash of ht flannel to swathe the waist, a knitted “waistcoat’’ in colored wools that takes the blouse form, and a close collar and necktie form a very smart and inexpensive costume. Woollen ruffs are coming in. The knickerbockers are ample, and most ample towards the calf, round which they fasten with a strap, showing the rest of the leg. The costume should follow the shape of the body as the plumage follows the shape of the bird, and admit of nothing that could catch the wind. Except for park —_— the only fit material is woollen. This e t depart. ure of women is opening a wide field to the knitter. Pyrenean wool is lighter than Shet- land, and is used in waistcoats and summer cycling kets. The ean women give touches of fancy and brightness to these garments, which remind one of the costumes of professional Spanish bulifight- ers. A new and 833 invention is a garment which is said to answer the purpose of a sail when one is going with the wind. It is in gutta-percha, fastened round the neck at top and thrown forward beyond the steering handles, to the stem of which it is tied. The wind fills it, and the of the bicycle becomes as the flight of the swal.- low. But the rider must look alive if she would not wreck or be w ed. Another Paris ingtitution is cycle grooms, whose business is\to escort young women of wealth and birth who go cycling in the Bois. At first these young persons went to the Avenue dessAcacias under the maternal ng and in the seclusion of the family car- 1 Then the grooms were introduced and now there is sald to be a demand for vernesses who are able to cle so we hat they can at the same time keep an eye on the youth and beauty in their charge.

Before he left Breslau to resume his studies at the Uni- versity of Berlin he was locken upon as a very strong player. He entered a tourna- ment in Nuremberg in 1883, where he won the title of master.

Two years later, in the internation- oy BD, His eye al tournament at Manchester, England, he repeated the same wonderful performance of not suffering defeat in a single instance. Again, two years later, in the international tournament, at Dresden, he once more won the first prize, but this time he lost a game to Adolf Albin of Vienna. This game cre- ated quite a sensation, being the only one lost by the doctor out of fifty-one tourna- ment games, against players of interna- tional reputations. Last year, in the inter- Mational tournament at Leipsic, he again won first prise, thus achieving the wonder- ful record of winning the first prise in four consecutive international tournaments. He is expected to gain one of the highest prizes in the forthcoming tournament at Hastings. . The fourth past master who will play at i Hastin is the 1 player of 1 Michail Ivanovitch ohigorine, who was born at St. Petersburg in 1850. Since 1881 he has played in the international tourna- ments and has invariably proved a terrible foe for even the strongest of his antagon- ists. His reatest achievements are his matches with Steinitz, his winning of the first prise in the International tournament of New York in 1889 and his drawn match 1 last year with Dr. Tarrasch (9 to 9 and 8 Gray). His style is one of unremitting, sustained and impetuous attack, — combined with subtlety and tempered b forethought, is well nigh irresistitie.

¢ LINDELL BOULEYWARD IN 1900—-H CYCLISTS GLIMPSE INTO FUTURITY. CYCLISTS WL WEAR DIAMONDS. ciated Oycling Club. RACES SET FOR AUGUST 24, Many of the Cracks Will Be Here, and Lee Richardson, a Celebrated Trick Rider, Will Appear. The affairs of the Diamond Tournament of the Associated Cycling Clubs to be held at the Pastime track Saturday, Aug. A. are nearly all in shape, for during the past week the members of the A. C. C. have been de- voting nearly all of their time to it. Last year the tournament of the A. C. C. was in the national circuit and the cracks were brought to this city for the first time in many years. This year the date awarded St. Louis was so late in the season that it was not deemed advisable to aceept it, and the Diamond Tournament was substituted. It is placed just before the Canadian loop of the circuit at a time when the opportunity to obtain the entries of the big class B men is greatest. The rMers will be at Milwaukee Aug. 19 and 20 arid g North to smaller towns and then to Canada. Many of them will not leave this — 1 and those are the men who are e cted here. Since Dute Cabanne has been winning fame and prizes on the track St. Louisans have not had an opportunity to see him in competition with the other big ones and cheer him to victory. They have read of his clever performances, but have wit- nessed his races against local men. Last year Cabanne was unable to ride at the A. . C. meet against the others, but rode an exhibition half mile at the close of the day, breaking the State record. This vear he has romis to be here if possible and show is own people what he can do. Other noted ones have signified their intention of com- peting. Verne rize Ust hung up is one of the most valuable and attractive ever offered in St. Louis and the A. C. C. have placed the actual value upon each of the diamonds. There has been no inflation in value and each stone is worth actually the price put upon it. In all there are fourteen diamonds, rang- ing in value from $150 to 619, and two diamond medals worth $50 each. The feature of the day will be the one mile open, class B, and for this event a $150 diamond will be offered to the winner. he second prize will be a $95 diamond and the third a stone. The medals will be given in class A events. One is offered in the novice race and one in the 34 age limit race. The latter is a challenge medal and can only be competed for by riders over 34 years of age. The medal must be won three times in a year by one man before it becomes his property, and if no one is successful a special race will be arranged for all those who have wou it at all. The dbnors of the medal in making the conditions specifiy that any club, holding a race meet in St. Louis under the sanction of the L. A. W. Racing Board, can schedule an event for 34-year-old riders and call for the medal to be put up again. This will give every race meet in the city an opportunity of seeing the veterans ride. In the age limit races F. W. Buckley, a surprisingly fast man, will rot be entered. as he is now im the East, but with such as Julian Laughlin, Wu Brown and Bud Weaver, there will no doubt be considerable interest. These two medals are of beautiful design and richly engraved. Each has a diamond at the top. The complete list of events and prizes, which aggregate $1,000, are as follows: One mile novice—Medal, $60. One mile open, class A—First prize, dia- mond, 350; second, diamond, $3158; third, diamond, $19. One-mile handicap, class A—First prize, diamond, $44; second, diamond, 50 Half-mile handicap, class A—F irst diamond, $44; second, diamond, $31.50. One-mile open, class B—First prise, dia- mond, $150; second, diamond, $9; third, dia- mond, . One-mile handicap, class B—First prize, diamond, $115; second, diamond, . Half-mile handicap, class B—First prize, diamond, $115; second, diamond, $95. prize, L. D. CARANNE. Half mile, age umit— Medal. $50. These prizes are now on exhibition in a weler’s window on Broadway @nd are at- racting considerable attention. Never be- fore in this city has such a collection of prizes for bicycles been given. The track will be in the best condition on the day of the races and with the trainin the riders have received State records wil be sure to go. The Suburban will run extra cars to the unds that day and accommo- dations will be provided for the large crowds that will no doubt attend. A band will be the too, to enliven the day. The association has en Lee Richard- gon, the celebrated trick rider to give a per- formance and to go against his own half- mile backward record. Richardson is a lad about 17 years old and his tricks are marvel- eful rider and at the Na- tional meet in Denyer last year, easily dis- tanced the other fancy riders, who were there.

He did not attempt to tour back on his wheel, as the experience one way was enough for him. He tells of rough and hilly roads, snakes, cyclones, cloudbursts and other im- 8 to cycling, which he experienced on Dp. 4 Mr. Trendley stated that everybody from St. Louis to Denver had read his telegrams in the Post-Dispatch and at every town the wheelmen would come out to meet him. He followed some distance in the wake of a man who is riding from. Baltimore to San Fran- cisco and found that little attention had been paid the Eastern man and eVerybody had waited for the Post-Dispatch cyclist.”’ Trendley brought back replies from Gov. McIntyre to Govs. Altgeld and Stone and in the latter Gov. McIntyre assured Missouri's chief executive that it would not be such a Ee time between drinks hereafter. 825 D Trendley is looking well and brown. speaks highly of his treatment along the especially in Denver. , Over Eleven Hundred Cyclists Are Members of the L.

C. Bald of the Columbia racing team has regained his winning form and is again piling up victories in the mile open events, his favorite races. During the course of the national circuit through Ohio, until Toledo was reached last Saturday, Bald met with a series of reverses, due, however, to the ex- . hard work to which he has been subjected. Having been on the path almost continuously since April 19, it was but nat- ural that he should show evidences of the continued strain; but his victories during the present week indicate that the “Can- non Ball” has lost none of his velocity.

The Terrible Swede” Could Not Break N Titus Hour Record. CHICAGO, Aug. 10.—Intense interest was manifested at the national circuit bicycle races to-day, particularly when John Law- son, known as the “Terrible Swede,” was pushed away from the tape in an attempt to break the American hour record of twenty- six miles, 1,489 yards, made by F. J. Titus last year. The tandem teams employed in the pacemaking were: Bainbridge, Lund, Weage and Ulbricht; Rau and Bowler. Bain- bridge and Lund took him the first mile in 2:15, which was over six seconds faster than Titus’ first mile. Two miles were covered in 4:39, as against 4:41 by Titus. At the third mile, however, Lawson had his time was 7:11 4-5, I wson was either unequal to the task imposed, or else was of the t of who do their best riding in the latter of ** 22 ing the whi er passing teenth at ch point he was * ioe ar tent wey ~ the six evident 8 8 upright * | the e- his savages have their tribal organizations and most every line of business, and all professions have associations or organiza- tions of some kind.

A few concerns are taking time by the forelock and have already completed their ‘1896. designs and turned out their first lot of samples says the Referee. Such concerns, | it might be added, will find no trouble in disposing of all the wheels they can manu- ere for the early bird will surely catch the worm. One large Eastern house informs the Referee that its samples of 1896 models are now entirely finished, and that in two months it will be shipping wheels by ¢arload lots. This is what thay be termed progressiveness, and it is such push and energy that has made the concern one of the leaders in a short space of time. Those houses which put off Gosigning their new wheels until they have learned o the advanced ideas of others cannot hope to have a very extensive business. Styles have now so settled that the maker is not compelled to wait until the last mo- ment before bringing out his new models. He has studied the wants of his customers, added such improvements as he thinks will of material benefit to his product, and goes ahead, with thé result that he sells his output y in the season and has only to orders. Such a maker is following out the sug- gestion that there ought to be no Season in the matter of bicycle manufactufe—that when a maker has a new thing he is wise if he gives it to his customers mediately and thus proves his claim of originality. Such is the tendency nowadays, at least more so by far than in t seasons. The concerns which are dealing largely with jobbers, or which have a countless number of agents throughout the country, cannot afford to wait until the last moment to be- gin manufacturing and delivering. Com- petition Is so keen now that orders must Be filled promptly, for individual buyers will not wait to be supplied with a particular machine when so many other good ones may be secured, and the agent must con- duct his business 8 It is doubtful if there will be any trouble about early deliveries for 1896 wheels. L. A. W. FINANCES. Chairman Perkins Submits a Very Fa- vorable Statement. Chairman Perkins of the Executive Com- mittee of tht League of American Wheel- men, has submitted a statement of the finances of the L. A. W. to the general mem- bership. The statement dates from April and is as follows: “The since April g. and received 27.

But of this sum ,923.08 there Is to be Due rer t. d account, $30. eaving a balance to be paid the Treasurer of $3,440.81. The Treasurer received from r Bassett, April 27, 1895, $3,000, and on June 1 1895, $1,000; and he also received from Chas. S. Luscomb, May 13, 1895, $216.12, making a total of 4,216.12.

Lyon moved Sut about five miles on the road to Little York and then turning southward across the prairie came about 1 u'clock in sight of Rains’ camp-fires, which extended north- ward as far as Gibson's Mill. He had com- ly turned the Conféderate left and was them. Halting his column .till dawn he then resumed his march, with Plummer’s battalion of regulars in advance, followed by Osterhaus’ battalion of Mis- souri volunteers and Totten’s battery. The Confederates were not yet aware of his approach, as they had withdrawn all their pickets at midnight. About this time, however, Col. Cawthon, who was in im- mediate command of Rains’ mounted brigade, sent out a picket in the direction from which Lyon was approaching. This picket had not advanced more than a mile and a half beyond Gibson's Mill when they discovered that an enemy was in their front. This fact being made known to Cawthon, he sent Col. Hunter with the “effectives’’ of his regiment, some o men, to ascertain whether this enemy was ad- vancing in force or not. When Hunter reached the picket, about 5 a. m., the head of the Federal column was already in 8 His first intention was to attack. ut Lyon, seeing that his approach was at least known to the Confederates, and that his further advance would be contested, now deployed his men into line, sending Oster- haus’ battalion to the right and Plummer’s to the left as skirmishers, and bringing the ist Missouri up to the support of Tot- ten’s battery. Hunter thereupon retreated and Lyon moved forward as rapidly as the ground would permit. Cawthon was meanwhile forming the rest of his brigade on the northern slope of — Hill. He had about 600 dismounted men in line. When Hunter, falling back before Lyon, reached this position, Cawthon ordered him to retire further down the creek and dismount his men and then return to the field and take position én his right. But before this was done, Lyon app on the hero of the opposite hill with the First Missouri, the First Kansas and Tot- ten’s battery, A brisk skirmish took place and Cawthon was driven back over the brow of Bloody Hill to its southern slope, where he was safe for the time.

To ice’s force Lyon opposed the ist Missouri, the Ist Kansas, Osterhaus’ Bat- talion of Missouri volunteers. Totten’s six- fen tates 7 u atte aggregating nearly 82 men. of his Sales. excepting lummes’ battalion, he held in reserve. The two lines were not more than 300 yards —— but they were concealed from each other by the intervening foliage. As Price’s men were armed almost exclusively with shotguns and common rifies, it was imperatively necessary for him, near as the two forces already were to each other, either to advance more closely to the Union line or wait till it should approach his own. He chose the latter alternative and awaited Lyon’s advance. He did not have to wait long, for in a minutes the word Forward!“ plainly heard and was quickly followed by the tramp of men and by the crackling of the brush through which they were coming. When Lyon's Missourians and their allies had come within easy range of Price's Missourians, out of the ranks of the latter there rang upon the sharp click of a thou- sand rifles, the report of a thousand shot- guns and the roar of Guibor’s battery. And the battle of Wilson’s Creek had begun in earnest. Missourians now fought to the death against Missourians on the leafy hill- side, while from opposing heights Totten, who had but lately been stationed at Little Rock, where his family still resided, fought furiously against Woodruff’s Little Rock battery, which now turned against him the very guns which they had taken from him a few months before. The battle thus joined upon the hillside was now waged for hours with intense ear- The lines would approach again and again within less than fifty yards of each other and then, after delivering a deadly fire, each would fall back a few paces to reform and reload, only to ad- vance again, and again renew this strange battle in the woods.

The latter communicated the glad news to his men, and warned them not to fire ape the approaching “friends.” They waved their flags, instead, in joyful wel- come. Just at this moment Reid on the east and Bledsoe on the west opened fire upen them at point blank range. [It is impossible for me,“ says Sigel, “to describe the con- sternation and frightful confusion caused by this unfortunate event. ‘They are firing against us,’ spread like wildfire through our ranks. The artillerymen could hardly be brought forward to serve their pieces. The infantry would not level their arms till too late. The consternation and con- fusion deepened into a panic when about 040 of the gray-coated Third Louisana, dash- ing up a steep bluff with McCulloch and McIntosh at their head, and Rosser and O’Kane’s battalion following, broke through the thick brush and charged right upon the Federal battery. Sigel’s whole force took to instant flight, abandoning five of their six guns, apd throwing themselves for safety into the bushes which lined both sides of the-Fayetteville road. Here they got se ted. Sigel and Salomon, with about 270 men and Capt. Carr’s company of cavalry tried to make thelr way back to Springfield by the same route that they came, but were set upon by Lieutenant-Col- onel Major with some mounted Missourians and Texans, and the Germans, being aban- doned by Capt. Carr, who made good his escape, were nearly all either killed, wound- ed or made prisoners. Sigel himself got to Springfield with one man only.... Another art of his column made its way to Little ork and thence to Springfield. It was now nearly 9 o’clock. Churchill, who after having been driven out of Nis camp in the early mornin , ha — PA rallied his men and taken them to the north side of Skegg s Branch and gone into the fight on Price's extreme left, was now moving to the center of Price's line, where it was hardest pressed. After de- tailing enough men to hold the horses of those that were dismounted for the fight, he had about 500 “‘effectives.”” Forming these in line on the Fayetteville road, south of the ford, and within reach of the enemy’s shot, he led them gallantly up the hill and went again into the fight on the left of Slack, and in the very front of Lyon’s at- tack ack. The Missourtans, thus strengthened where they most needed strengthening, advanced boldly, Guibor’s guns keeping in line with the infantry, and Woodruff throwing his shot high overhead into the midst of Lyon's reserves. Lyon, finding that his men were giving way, brought forward a section of Tot- ten’s battery with a strong support, to the right and front of his own line, and en- filaded the Confederates at 200 yards, Tot- ten and Gordon Granger both helping to work the ’ McCulloch, who had gone with Churchill up Bloody Hill, diverted this fire by return- ing in haste to the valley and sending Car- roll’s Arkansas cavalry and five companies exans to turn Lyon’s right and charge these guns in rear. The ground was ill-adapted to the operations of cavalry, and Greer and Carroll were finally driven back. But this movement relieved Price, nevertheless, and at the same time so increased Lyon’s anxiety that he ordered the ist Iowa to the front and brought Steele’s battalion of regulars to the further 9 oft Totten. to this time (10 o'clock) the infantry of Pearce’s brigade, three fine regiments— Gratiot’s, Dockery’s and Walker’s—more than 1. strong, had not fired a shot, nor had Graves’ Missouri regiment, about 300 4 strong, that ought to have followed Weight- man into battle. There they lay, just across the creek, not half a mile away, with noth- ing to do and doing nothing. ce, seeing the necessity for instant and decisive action, for Lyon was now bringing every available man to the front and doing prodigies of valor, galloped over to Gratiot, during the pause of the fight which .occurred in his own front while Greer and Carroll were attempting to flank Lyon's right, and begged him to bring his regiment to the help of the Missourians and Churchill.

When they drew near to the position which they were to occupy, Price said to the men: Fou will soon be in a pretty hot place, men! but I will be near you, and I will take care of you; keep as cool as the inside of a cucumber and give them thunder.“ Turning to Gratiot he said: “That's your position, Colonel; take it and hold it, whatever you do.

The Quartermas-. i brave soul cast down by the shock, he said in a confused way to those nearest him that he feared the day was lost. But he came quickly to his senses, and ordering Sturgis to rally the First Iowa, which was begin- ning to.break badly, he mounted a horse that was offered to him, and swinging his hat in the air, called out to his men to fol- low. A portion of Mitchell’s Second Kansas, which Lieut. Wherry had just brought again to the front, closed quickly around him and together they dashed into the fight. The next minute Mitchell was struck down 8 wounded, and al- most instantly thereafter a fatal ball pierced Lyon’s breast. He fell from his horse into the arms of his faithful orderly, who had sprung forward to catch him, and in another minute he was dead. The command now devolved on Maj. Sturgis. He called his chief officers to- gether. Price had already been reinforced by Gratiot and now Dockery’s Arkansas regiment and a section of Reid’s battery were getting into position, and with them was the Third Louisiana, which, for the first time since its encounter with Plummer in the early morning had been gathered to- gether under its Colonel (Herbert) and was eager to add to the laurels which it had already won in the fields on which it had defeated Plummer and routed Sigel. Sturgis decided to retreat. The order was given and silently obeyed, Steele’s battalion of regulars covering the retreat and march- ing away from the field in perfect order. t was now half past 11. Silence had again fallen upon Bloody Hill, on whose rough sur- face the dead of both armies lay in great heaps. The Confederates, stretched out among the bushes in which they had been fighting all day, were waiting for the ene- my's next onset, or for Prices order to at- tack, and ready for either. Suddenly a cry rang along their ranks that the Federals were retreating—that they had already got away and were ascending the hill from which they had begun the attack upon Rains at dawn of day; that they had at last abandoned the field for which they had fought so bravely and so well against un- conquerable odds. Springing to their feet they gave utterance to their unspeakable relief and to their unbounded joy with that exultant cry which is never heard except —— a battle field whereon its victors stand.

The new machine is te, be propelled by means of levers, and its mechanism is such that power may be @pplied constantly, thus eliminating the 41 center go annoy- ing in a crank Propeller. ’ By reason of this K is claimed the machine will be valuable for army pur- poses as well as for cyclists traversing hilly countries, and for country and sandy wheeling generally. The inventor, who is a Chicagoan, claims he has discovered and embodied in his device a gear effect equiv- alent to drawing out the levers on that part of the circumference at which the stroke has its greatest efficiency and shortening them for the remainder of the circumfer- ence. He explains this effect is accom- plished by lengthening the levers to such an extent to be able to double the gear and making the stroke upon that of the circumference represented by deg. of a circle. This will avoid the dead center, make the arc to be traveled less than 15 inches, and the rider will be enabled to make the stroke approximately of maximum eff ciency. This is done by means of a simple and automatic mechanism, and it is demon- strated that a whel red to 140 is as easily propelled as a gear ordinary bi- cycle. For racing a 160-gear may be used. There is in the propeling of the machine no resistance of sa or straps. The levers are 9 inches in length, having for their fulcrums the same shaft as the front sprocket wheel, and le means of ball-bearing clutches. They t propel and stop the machine, making a dis- tance of 28 inches as compared with 42 inches of the crank lever. When one lever is press- ed forward the other is brought backward without the use of springs or straps, and the power applied may be constant. There- fore the stroke is virtually of maximum ef- ficiency on all points of a circumference and can be made from any decimal part of an inch to 14 inches, the effect being that the levers are drawn out upon that of the circumference at which the stroke has its greatest efficiency and lessened for the remainder of the stroke. ‘ A MILLION WHEELMEN. There Are Probably That Many in This Coun Writing of “The Bicycling Era,” in the August Lippincott's, r. John Gilmer Speed hazards the gu that there are now a million riders of the wheel in the United States, that within three years t will be three and a half million, and that ten years hence fifteen millions of Amer- icans will be cyclists. Going back to the beginning of things, Mr. Speed resur- ge in a letter from rects the following John Keats to his brother in America, in February, 1819: “The nothing of the day is a machine called the velocipede.

Governor by his congressional district. But the simplest ticlan knows that with Bland's dist solid for Stephens for Gov- ernor, it would take some such man as Bland himself to keep Stephens from being Governor. It is, therefore, reasonable to resume that the young and restless Colonel S really a candidate and that this limita- tion of his ambitions to his district is only the Colonel's modest way of making the announcement that he is in the race. Lon Stephens is 38 years old. His father, Col. J h L. Stephens, died a wealthy banker of Boonville, and left a fortune to his children. Lon had a natural aptitude for politi inherited from his father, who was himself at one time a candidate for Governor. Lon was winding up his re- ceivership of the Fifth National Bank of St. Louis in March, 4890, when a vacancy occurred im the office of State Treasurer, and Gov. Francis appointed him to that office. He brought such business methods to his work as “Oy — revolutionized that department, and gave him the nomina- tion and election as State Treasurer in 1 rr S44 48 48 4.8 4.8 e e e e eee Because he had palpitation of the heart, Mr. A. J. Allen determined to quit smoking. He thought the tobacco habit was the cause of his trouble, but when he ceased smoking the pulsations of the heart were more violent than ever. Mr. Allen is a registered chemist of Lynn, Mass., and at second thought he concluded that, if tobacco wasn't the cause, it must be acute dyspepsia. His knowledge of chemistry naturally prompted him to take Ripans Tabules, weill knowing their efficacy in disorders of the stomach, liver and bowels. Quick relief followed, and now there is no more distress in the region of his heart. ä But the remarkable part of Mr Allen’s experience follows: He decided to forego smoking anyhow, and discovered that Ripans Tabules not only satisfied the longing for tobacco, which all smokers are familiar with, but at first he act- wally looked forward with pleasure to the three periods each day when he took the tabules. Mr. Allen no longer smokes, and has no desire to, nor does he take the Tabules. He is a well man, and does not need medicine of any kind. Mr. Allen believes Ripans Tabules will prove a powerful aid to any man who desires to abandon the tobacco habit. . Ripans Tabules are a scientific remedy for disorders of the digestive organs. Although a man of large. means and a stockholder in several ational banks he was among the first to publicly declare himself in favor of the free coinage of sil- ver at 16 to 1, and when others hesitated he proudly and bravely went about the State preaching the doctrine and declaring 7: HON RICHARD P.

It has been reported Ne gps of late that ex-Congressman Hatch of annibal has gubernatorial aspirations. This is prob- ably not true. His closest friends have said within the last week that he has no idea of entering the contest for Governor; that if he should decide to continue in public „ life he would again become a candidate tor Congress. The probabilities are, how- ever, that Col. Hatch will retire. The peo- ple of his district honored him eight times with a seat in Con ss, and for sixteen years he has tasted of the delights of Wash- 7 f ington existence.

MR. S. B. COOK, EDITOR OF THE MEXICO INTELLIGENCER. There are few men in Missouri AA made Secretary. With Maj. Salmon who are not familiar with the kindly face and cheerful voice of Mr. 8. B. Cook, editor of the Mexico Intelligencer. Everybody calls him Sam,“ not because there is not dig- nity in his bearing—for he is not given to levity under any circumstances—but be- use everybody likes him. It is character- tic of Western men that when they like another they quickly find out his front name, call him by that, and leave all his titles to those who do not know him. Sam B. Cook was born in Front Royal Va., Jan. 11, 1852, but has lived in Missou since early boyhood. He came first into politics in 1878, when he was elected Sheriff and Collector of Warren County in face of a Republican majority of 800, and was re- 8 by an increased majority two years ater. In 1882 he took editorial charge of the Warrenton Banner, and in 188 purchased the Mexico Intelligencer of Col. J. E. Hut- ton, who had been elected to Congress the year before. Mr. Cook has made such a success of the Intelligencer that to-day his leading editorials are widely read and copied and he has a comfortable income from the profits of his business. But as his personality and power diffused 2 over Central Missouri, Mr. Cook came drawn again directly into politics. In 1892 his coneressional istrict elected him a member of the State Democratic as hairman of the Executive Commit- tee, Mr. Cook had ch of the State cam- paign of that 1 and the increased Dem- Ocratic majority secured in face of what seemed possible defeat was an achievement to be remembered. Mr. Cook was made Chairman of the Executive Committee in 1894, and had charge of that campaign, but no single man could have held together the factions then disturbing the party. Still Mr. Cook’s labors were arduous, in- telligent and surprisingly effective. His recogniz power as a writer and speaker, and his ability to poll more than his party vo in the lower end of his district, whe the big Republican major- ities are located, have, in connection with his position on s currency question, given his name great prominence tn the coming congressional contest. The people are familiar with the fight he made recently within the State Committee for the regular calling of a State convention to pass upon the question of free silver. It was a gallant fight, conducted with skill, patience and ultimate success. His district heartily indorse his course, and his county ut him at the head of his delegation to ertle Springs by a unanimous vote. Edifor Cook has thus far achieved a complete and perfect success as a journal- ist and as a practical man of businéss. He is popular at home and throughout the State and it is altogether probable he will soon be heard from in Congress. THE DOCTOR’S ADVICE.

If we look be- neath the common titles by which men mon- opolige the earth, and remember that re- motely they were secured by force and cun- ning, we see at qnce that from the premises the only virtu title to the land is its use.

If there were only six men on an island they would not be cruel and unjust to one- another. In mostc men act arbitrarily and greedily because ey believe they are contending against society as a whole. But this is a great fallacy. All of our wrongs are ea the individual because these individuals only suffer. Two men may suffer from the same cause, but they suffer separately as individuals. Hence if selfish men ev here knew that they were wronging the individual and not society as a whole they would alter their — and strive to mete out a nobler jus- ce. It may be said by a candid but not over shrewd objector that the sans culotte are all to blame for their poverty. is an overstatement, for there are men hunting work who cannot get it. Hven those who do not want work are the results of con- ditions over which they had little control. When we remember how many disabilities men inherit—and they do inherit advantages and disadvantages,whether Darwin or Weis- mann is correct—we are forced to look upon the unthrift of the worthless as a phenom- ena with which we must deal. The more dif- ficult the problem the more seriously should society. deal with it. If your child is sick nigh unto death you insist on your physician using his utmost skill.

How strong Populism is in Texas may be inferred from the fact that the leading Texas daily paper, the Dallas News (Demo- crat), devotes four columns of the first page with flaring head lines, to a report of a rally at Fort Worth, commencing Monday of the past week. The rt is able, im- partial and devoid of ridicule, which is even more significant than the space granted. The report among other things, said that farmers from every point of the compass were in attendance, many from a distance of hundreds of miles, having traveled over- land in covered wagons. This is an off year in Teras politics, yet the rally was an abun- t in every particular. Single- taxers will take peculiar satifaction in learnifig this when they know that some of our prominent Texas adherents took a lead- ing, if not the leading part in the affair. One of the Committee of Arrangements is quoted as saying that they had secured the large tent of Dr. Longstreet, the single- tax lecturer,” for the speaking, and the rter further along says: “While the celebrat single-taxer, Dr. B.
