The young people were going out to spend the evening. They left their home about 8 o’clock and walked down Laclede avenue.

A reckless attempt to burn a lot of waste paper caused Mrs. Mary Sullivan, 3818 St. Louls avenue! and her 18-year-old son Barnie to be nearly burned to death at 4 o'clock Wednesday afternoon. The boy y ventured too near the flames, which nited his clothing and ran over his like a flash. In attempting to rescue her child Mrs. Sulllvan's dress also caught fire and both were frightfully burned. Their screams attracted a passer-by who suc- ceeded in extin Shing the flames. Both are now confined to bed by their injuries, but will recover. COLD OUTFLOW. Treasury Officials Think the Current, Will Seon Cease. Special te The Post-Dispatch.

It is ohe of the strangest cases of suicide the Coroner has ever been called upon te investigate. The girl lived with her parents at 2307 Lynch street. : The suicide evidently swallowed the poison before she went to bed. She occupied the same room with her mother, whom she awakened by getting up to get a drink of water. About 2:30 o’clock she was seized Her mother was not alarmed, however, until the sufferer re- lapsed into a semi-unconscious condition. About 5 o'clock when the pain became un- bearable the girl told her mother she had en poison. Her father started at once to summon a physician.

She did not reach home till 1:30 in the morning.. Where she spent the interval of three hours and a half is a mystery.

The most exciting event at the South Side race track Wednesday night was not on the programme. Constable Ed Hunt of the First District went out there to serve at- tachment papers on a horse owned by Jim Curran. Scarcely did the Constable put in an appearance when he found himself roll- ing in the dirt with Jim Curran astride of his neck. Officer Quinlan rescued the Con- stable and run both combatants outside of the fence, where they again got mixed up and slugged each other so vigorously that Quinian, to prevent murder, called the he sgutton, “They Will tall Sater Pe e on, ey e udge their troubles later on. 3 BACK 10 MBXICO.

VERSAILLES, Ky., Aug. 2.—Senator Blackburn returned to his home here last night from a brief campaign tour of parts of the Ninth and Tenth Districts, very much encouaged by the prospects of re- turning harmony in the Democratic ranks. He received the Post-Dispatch correspond- ent with characteristic cordiality, but said “You must excuse me from an interview. The condition of the party as well as my own political affairs are in such à critical position just at present that any state- ment I might make at this time would tend to aggravate matters, and so frritate the opposition as to complicate the situation beyond the h of repair in time for vic- tory in November. You can say, however, that so far as my interests are concerned within the party, I feel perfectly safe. The fight from this time on, is between me and the Republican 0 ization. Either I or a Republioas will be elected United States Senator by the Legislature.” “But Senator, news from Washington says the Admi ration is preparing to throw Secretary lisle into the beat you,” was su ted. That's all fub-dubbery,” ekly re- sponded Senator Blackburn. “The vriginal intention of the position to me was to force Carlisle to the front, send him back te the nate i _ goon but the campaign has #80. itself that no open is left f le, and he cannot possibly get in The ond his co race. fight has got “You then fee] confident of your own re- on?“ „ the Senator an- 225 at this ire nobo the “Hes Gen, int ptaelon eae Say ‘the best on r t to used the ter aoa of the Post- has Pepe ee torial of Fu | . —— Din tch spa dered of the last Pos the fight to} , t@ do this eon. hold the Democratic party to the double ‘standard along the lines of my contention -and to show that Mr. Cleveland is widely at variance with his party.“ Senator Blackburn leaves here this after- noon for Louisville when he p on Friday to his tour of the Second Dis- trict at Henderson.

When she went there she was by chance assigned to the infant class, embracing forty to fifty little Indians, ranging from 4 to 11 years in age. The inadequacy of the old methods soon became apparent to her and she broached the idea of turning her scbool room into a kinder- garten. This proposition was too much out of the usual rut, not to meet with objections, but finally, after considerable red tape corre- spondence. with the Interior Department, iss Thomas had her way and entered on her new work. Her success was astonish- ing, even to the most ‘experienced Indian teachers. It was in the latter part of Oc- tober, 1894, when she took in hand forty- two little aborigines, just off the reserva- tions, none of whom knew a word of Eng- lish, or had the slightest desire to learn anything about the white men’s ways and doings. Miss Thomas quickly changed all this. When Christmas came she was able to stand her class in a row and have them recite in concert. Last June, at the closing exer-. cises of the school, they gave separate reci- tations and dialogues, to the intense amuse- ment of the audience. Miss Thomas’ little fellows became the talk and pride of the school. The government inspector when he visit- ed the school last June quickly noted all this. A man of wide experience in such matters, he quickly saw the importance of the work being done by Miss Thomas, and his report to the department embodied his ideas. As a result of this report the kin- dergarten system will be extended as rap- idiy as possibly th hout the Govern- ment Indian schools, and Miss Thomas will — the principal instrument of this exten- sion. MAN'S INHUMANITY TO MAN, Joseph Danforth’s Unsuccessful At- tempt to Raid a Charivari. Joseph H. Danforth, a widower, aged 39 years, and Mrs. Maggie Craycraft, a widow of 32, were deeply in love with each other and wanted to be married. As Danforth’s wife has not been dead quite a year, and Mrs. Craycraft's hus- band shuffled off only eighteen months ago, they were afraid of a “‘charivari.” A bright idea struck Mrs. Craycraft and yes- terday she suggested they go to Clayton. I Joseph procured a carriage from J. H. Gebken’s livery stable, 2232 Gra- vois avenue, where he is employed as a car- riage driver, and went to Clayton; where Justice Wengler pronounced them man and -wife.”’ On the return trip they were chuckling over the clever manner in which they had outwitted their friends, and reaching St. Louis, repaired to 214 Missouri avenue, where a neat little flat had been fitted up— with the erstwhile Mrs. Craycraft's furni- ture, But in some unaccountable manner the secret leaked out and some of Danforth’s friends around the stable heard of it. The cue was th — of’ to the whole neighborh and in half an hour a crowd of nearly 100 assembled in front of Dan- forth’s house horrible din assailed his ears. In digmay he beheld the mob beneath his window. The noise was sug- tn Me of bedlam and was kept up until Janforth capitulated and bought beer all around. This morning when a Post-Dispatch man visited the scene, the place was a sight to behold. The street in front of the house was covered with old tin cans and buckets, pieces of chains, antediluvian coal scuttles and su vated dish pans. The front of the house and inartistically decorated with o tomatoes, decayed vegetables red clay. Danforth when seen Baid: “I don’t look very much like an eloper, do I? Come in and see the bride. She is a widow 82 and l am 39, so I think we are old enough to get married if we want to. We have al- ready the start of an interesti family, as my wife has three children and so have I. The only reason we went to Clayton was to ‘fool’ our friends and avoid a ‘charivari,’ but they ‘caught on" and gave it to us anyway.” DEPUTIES AT THE CHURCH.

Rev. Wright lives at 6404 Fyler avenue, which is out by Clifton Heights. He is about 35 years old and is a son of Maj. Wright. e has been retired from the Baptist ministry some years. In the days when he used to exhort his congregation to be good and go to bed early, he practiced strictly what he preached, and was known for his ex onal piety. No wonder then that to get so gay the neighborhood was scandalized and the fam- ily heart-broken over his antics. His kissing scrapes with the pretty women in the ne borhood were reaching a dangerous pass, for the divine was no re- spector of persons. The family concluded that his mind was turned and decided to take steps to have him examined. Thu y morning Mrs. Stuart, accompa- „ called on Dr. Pine street, and explained to him the predicament in which they were. Dr. Fry advised them to go to the Dispensary and see Dr, Jordan. This they did, and Dr. Jordan in order to have the proceedings legal, sent them over to the Four Courts. ARCHBISHOPS JOURNEY. His Grace Will Visit New York aad New and Old Mexico. Archbishop Kain will begin a long jour- ney at the end of September. On the 29th of that month he will be in Washington, D. C., to attend the annual meeting of the Archbishops. Much business of importance will come up and perhaps Archbishop Kain’s action in removing the bans placed on the G. A. R. at funeral serv- ices may be discussed with a view to having uniformity. During the stay of the prelates in Washington the Philosophy Hall of the Catholic university will be opened and the eucharistic congress will be held. The hier- arthy will attend both events. From Washington Archbishop Kain and many of his associates will go to Santa Fe, N. M., to take part in the ceremony of in- vesting Archbishop Chappelle of that see with the pallium. As Archbishop Kain has within the past few days made formal ap- plication to Rome for his pallium, St. Louis will witness the next assembly of prelates for the elaborate investment ceremony. From Santa Fe many Archbishops and Bishops, among them Archbishop Kain, will go to the City of Mexico to participate in a twelve days’ religious festival, which is to be held there about the middle of October. All the Archbishops and Bishops of the United States have been invited and Presi- dent Diaz has signified his desire for them to accept. The American prelates will be even transportation, either by the Mex- can Government or by the Bishops of Mexico. 70 PULL MRS. WATKINS’ HAIR Three-Cornered Fight Narrowly Avert- ed on Olive Street. In addition to the notoriety she. has re- ceived through that $100,000 suit against Col. R. S.

No secret has been made among a certain class of the fact that £ young woman living at Kansas City journéyed all the way to St. LOUISE WATKINS Louis for the expressed urpose of pulling “Darling Lou's'“ hair. Khe girl called at Mrs. Watkins’ house, 3111 Olive street, with the intention of rr out her threat, but the object of her hatred was not to be found. Whether she had heard of the girl 8 coming and absented herself, or just hap- pened to be out, is not known, but to her absence alone is attributed the fact that there was not anot fler scene at the Watkins domicile. The young woman in question is Miss Lot- tie Tarber, a lively natural blonde with bright olden hair. She is said to be} of W. L.

One of the charges was that Mr. Clark and his ‘pets’ were irunk half the time; another that the home was being run extravagantly, and cruelly. As a matter of fact the superintendent never took a drink in his life. One of the statements, made by @ certain lady, was that the institution paid $700 a year for ice. As a matter of fact, the ice costs us just. $30 for 250 tons. Because the public is always inclined to believe that a ublic institution is mismanaged because it a public institution, all -hese matters were investigated and found without founda- tion. On account of them and the antag- onism to Mr. Clark in certain quarters, we raised his salary.” SEVERED HIS JUGULAR. Roustabout Matt McRay Mortally Gored by a Cow. Matt McRay, a colored roustabout on the steamer Gray Eagle, met with a peculiar accident Wednesday afternoon which re- sulted in almost instant death. While load- ing some cattle on the boat at Hager's Landing, Perry County, Mo., one of the animals fell down on the deck. McRay at- tempted to raise the cow, but the beast sud- denly tossed its head and the horn struck McRay in the neck, severing the jugular vein. McRay bled to death in a few minutes. The deceased had no settled place of abode. He is supposed to have a brother some- where in St. Louis. The body was brought to this city on the boat. III BION'S BAD LUCK. His Brother Adolph and a Friend Reb Him ef 8500. A series of forgeries of a peculiar char- acter have been perpetrated by Adolph Bion and Chas. Plack, the victim being Max Bion, a brother of Adolph Bion. Max Bion, who was formerly employed by the Missouri Car and Foundry Company, and who lives at 4222 Norfolk avenue, at- tained his majority about a year ago and became the possessor of $2,000. A portion of this amount he deposited in the Mer- chants’- Laclede National Bank. His broth- er, who is an habitue of race tracks and bucket shops, knew of this deposit and to- —— with Chas. Plack, a brother of rocer Plack at Old Orchard, evolved a scheme to get the money. Together they forged Max Bion's name to checks amount- ing to about $600. These checks were in small amounts, ranging from $20 to $124. Max Bion and Riekert notified the police at once, but no trace of either the brother or Plack has been found. Plack was seen at Twelfth and Chouteau avenue Monday afternoon. Bion says he will prosecute both of the guilty parties to the full extent of the law. TIB DONE If,” Said Mrs. Waters ‘After Taking Car- bolic Acid. — Mrs. Rosella Waters, wife of Michael Waters, salesman for the Mound City Paint and Oil Co., took a dose of carbolic acid at her home, second floor of 2418 Cass ave- nue, Wednesday afternoon. Her recovery is doubtful. She said to her sister, Mrs. Ann Schrier, before Swallowing the poison: Don't be surprised if you hear that I’m dead. I'm going to take poison the first time that I’m alone.“ Mrs. Schrier became anxious and decided to remain at the Waters’ house. When she returned from a visit to the first floor, Mrs. Waters said to her: “I’ve done it,“ and she pointed to an empty glass. Mr. Waters said he supposed his wife was despondent on account of poor health. They have three grown children. FAINTED IN THE STREET. Miss Grace oppenheim Nearly Died on Washington Avenue. Miss Grace Oppenheim of 3014 Chestnut street took luncheon with a young gentle- man at noon. After leaving the restaurant and while coming down Washington avenue, she suddenly fainted in front of Boland’s book store and fell unconscious to the pave- ment. She was carried into the book store and Dr. Leavy of the Hotel Barnum worked over her for an hour before she was revived. CUPID’S PRANES AT CLAYTON.

Purchase ne Lindell $71,500 Worth of Property. The Garneau Investment Co. purchased some valuable future“ business property Thursday, aggregating $71,500 in value. The southwest corner of Robbins’ lane and Washington avenue, being just west of Sixteenth street, was purchased for $60,000. The lot is improved with a large stone dwelling and measures 62 feet 4% inches on Washington avenue by a depth of 160 feet to St. Charles street. Robbins’ lane is a 15- foot thoroughfare forming the eastern boundary of the property. It is understood that this property will be improved with an — house with stores on the ground floor. M. B. O'Reilly, the attorney in the La- clede Building, was trustee of the property. He also conducted the transfer of the prop- erty comprising the northeast corner of Sec- ond and Spruce streets, the lot 1 a frontage of 75 feet on Second street and 8 feet on Spruce street. This lot is improved with a ware-house bringing a fair rental. The third piece of property purchased by the investment company is an old-fash- toned residence fronting 27 feet on the north side of Morgan, west of Sixteenth street, the lot extending back 144% feet. The last two pieces of property have an aggregate value of $21,500. The Washington avenue mansion is valued at $50,000. This deal has been pending for some time and was de- layed a month ago by the death of Joseph Garneau. He had an interest in the prop- erty and purchased it outright. His heirs control most of the stock of the investment company. After straightening out the af- fairs of the deceased the sale was finally concluded. George P. Wolff’s New Home. 1 George P. Wolff, the well known realty agent, purchased from John G. McNair, of the McNair & Harris Real Estate Company the large double residence, Cabanne avenue; lot 100x215 feet, which he will oc- cupy as a home. The dwelling is of frame with a rock foundation and contains ten rooms; a large hall, the entire length of the house, opens onto a spacious veranda in the front.

CORPORATION USES AND ABUSES. Judge Taft remarked in his Bar Asso- ciation address that “under conditions of modern society corporations are indis- pensable to material progress and are among “the greatest instruments for good that social man has devised.” This is true when they confine them- selves to their legitimate business pur- poses. But when they make politics an adjunct of business and dictate laws and control courts in order to increase their profits and secure immunity for violation of the law they become one of the greatest instruments of evil known to society. When they run parties, pack conventions, corrupt legislatures and own judges, there is justification for popular fear and distrust of them. It is not the use, but the abuse of cor- porations that excites resentment and opposition on the part of the people. No government in which organized greed becomes a dominating factor can main- tain the rights and liberties of the peo- ple or is fit to survive. It was the ten- dency of corporations to dominate par- ties which led Abraham Lincoln to say that the growth of corporations and of corporate power is a greater menace to our institutions than the Civil War. Little nurture is required to develop the possibilities of good in corporations, but eternal vigilance is needed to guard against their possibilities of evil, and it behooves judges and lawyers, who are the instruments upon which corporations must depend to develop their evil possi- ** standard men of Jefferson City } If we are to go into the next campaign | the highest type of American citizenship?

What has been charged against Mr. Cleveland is that in the contest for tariff reform at the last session of Congress, he failed to represent the views of his party and to redeem the pledges on which the na- tional campaign of 1892 was won—the Wilson bill, even as framed by the House, being a lame and impotent conclusion of the long fight for tariff reform. Also, that when the Democrats in national convention assembled adopted a com- promise on the money question in order to avoid a party split, he forced that question to the front as soon as Con} gress assembled, divided his party hope- lessly, and is now stultifying his party’s record by trying to commit the Demo- crats to a monetary policy dictated by Wall street and which they have de- nounced for twelve years. The reason Democrats did not sooner denounce Mr. Cleveland is that they did not Believe that he would so grossly de- ceive them. They believed that he would stand honestly and squarely on the plat- form which his friends framed and which he accepted. It is a slow lesson for Democrats to learn that a President elected by them would utterly ignore the will of his party and in spite of their protests try to align it under John Sher- man's banner. Democrats had been accustomed to re- gard Mr. Cleveland as both candid and courageous. They trusted him enougq; to believe that if he interpreted the mon- ey plank in the national platform to mean gold monometallism, he would say so in time for the people to pass upon it. They did not believe that he would equivocate and obscure the issue until after his election and then surrender the Treasury to a foreign syndicate and al- low his financial policy to be controlled by New York bankers. They were deceived. As soon as they discovered it they began to speak out. The elections of 1894 showed how they felt about it. The elections of 1895 and 1896 will show their feelings still more clearly if Mr. Cleveland persists in his course. 1 unn _ - THE PUBLIC LIGHTING PROBLEM. The Board of Public Improvements is acting wisely In taking up the subject of public lighting at this time in anticipa- tion of the expiration of the present con- tract, four and a half years hence. This period is none too long for thorough work of preparation. Great advances have been made in electric lighting since the city’s first contract was made. Although that con- tract was thought to be remarkably fa- vorable and was when compared with the contracts of many other cities, the Post- Dispatch showed by statistics published in the current number of the Arena that our prices are far in excess of the actual cost of electric lighting. Cities which own and operate their own plants ob- tain their public lighting at from one- half to one-fifth of the cost of those which have contracts with private com- Cities that sell light to private The Board’s committee should investi- to run its own plant, or at least put it in Seah answer why | We are not aware that any one has de- The meaning of Birdie parent. Any one who sings under any circumstances and against all opposi- tion is Birdie Allendale. Kentucky has a winning Birdie Allendale in P. Wat Hardin, who is merrily singing his 16 to 1 refrain in spite of the howling of the Administration claque, and it may be added that when the Democratic Na- tional Convention meets all the power of Wall street and the pull of House machine cannot keep dale from singing a bimetallic song. The Pennsylvania Republicans have followed the example of the Missouri Democrats and established the rule that the Chairman of the State Executive candidate or elected bx the State Com- doubtedly in the interest ot good politiga, chairman elected by the convention. A convention eleetion means that no small henchman of a boss can obtain the im- portant place of chairman, and the vari- ous corrupting influences that have here- tofore been brought to bear on the mem- bere of the State Committee will be ren- dered futile. A man of standing and State reputation will be the only one that will have a chance of election in a State Convention. When Jefferson formulated the less- government-the-better doctrine he did not expect it to be interpreted to mean that the merit of an official is measured by his- vacations. But our city adminis- tration is Republican and cannot be ex- pected to understand Jeffersonian doc trine. Besides, Mr. Jefferson would prob- ably have indorsed that interpretation in the case of Republican officials. There is one unpleasant feature of the great Masonic demonstration in Boston. The Western knight who once tastes Boston beans that are baked in Boston loses all desire for the Western article and turns up his nose at all Occidental beanerigs. He who has become accus- tomed to the Western bean, as cooked in the West, should never be disillusionized by straying to Boston. * It is not known that the devil, even though he makes occasional quotations from Scripture, has become a daily read- er of the Holy Word, but we do know that Matt Quay has offered a resolution de- crying corruption in politics. So soon as we can recover from our astonishment we shall all rejoice with exceeding great joy. Broker Benedict, one of Mr. Cleve- land’s few intimates, announces that the greenbacks must go, and that the sound money men of both parties must get to- gether and make a new party.” A party formed in this way would consist of nine Republicans to one Democrat, and the Populists would outvote it at the polls. — — — — _- _ The Turks complajn that the attitude of Great Britain in the Armenian matter is “discourteous.” The British complaint is that the behavior of the Turks to the Armenians has been a good deal worse than discourteous. The “unspeakable Turk” has placed himself beyond the pale of international courtesy. 1 It seems that a banana peeling on the granitoid will tumble a bicycler as read- ily as a citizen on foot. This is an im- portant fact. The banana peeling has been long denounced, but some allow- ance must be made for it while it is do- ing police duty. — ä—ũ)U—̃— ñ ͤ ei —— — The rapid accumulation of babies in the Morgan Street Home, which is de- pendent solely upon prayers to Heaven for supplies, may prove a severe test of the power of petitions, but there is probably no one who doesn’t hope that every prayer will be answered. — ͤ > — — A thousand Chicago babies having died in a month, cases against sevefty-five dealers in impure milk will be prepared.

A Washington dispatch in the local Republican organ throws light on the motive which induced Mr. Olney to change from a course of masterly in- activity to one of vigorous energy when he deserted the Attorney Generalship for the office of Secretary of State. The dispatch states that Mr. Olney is Getermined to make a record in foreign affairs. He will enforce the Monroe doé- trine and defend the rights of Americans on foreign soil. Particular stress is laid upon the Mora claim, the publication of the correspondence regarding which, it is sajd, will demonstrate in signal degree the firmness and ability of the Secretary. All of this 16 interesting and tends to make the bosom of Americans swell with proud admiration of the statesman who is conducting our foreign affairs, until the explanation is reached. The nub of the information is in the last paragraph, which states that: Secretary Olney, be- ing the sort of man that is more deeply interested in himself than in the Ad- ministration, and having an eye out for international business &fter the end of this Administration, proposes to im- prove his present op tunities.” The cat is out of the bag. The reason of Secretary Olney’s new found official vigor is clear. Inactivity was money in the Attorney Generalship and activity is money in the Secretaryship of State. Mr. Olney’s breast is stirred ta emu- lation by the new of the $100,000 fee John W. Foster received from China.

An inquisitive correspondent asks, “What is the meaning of Birdie Allen- dale?” and “Was she a person?!“ For answer to the second question we can only refer the correspondent to Sen- ator George G. Vest of Missouri. The Senator is the only man known to have information of Miss Allendale. He intro- duced her to the American people and alone can tell whether she is a person, a thing or a mere figment of imagina- tion or an airy fairy vision of lovely and melodious persistence. Miss Allendale's national reputation was gained during the great tariff strug- gle between the Senate and House in the last Congress. While the House was try- ing to keep from swallowing the tariff “pill which the Senate had prepared and was attempting to force down its throat Senator Vest made a vigorous speech in which he sald the House despite all pro- tests would swallow Dr. Gorman’s tariff dose. He comparéd the Senate to Miss Birdie Allendale, the star singer of a concert hall in the far West. The master of ceremonies in her as the most beautiful and I cantatrice in ex- istence, who had delighted crowned heads and whose unequaled vocal gifts and rare loveliness of person had enraptured the civilized world. When this glowing eulogium upon Miss Allendale’s charms had been pronounced a spectator in the rear of the hall said in a loud voice, “Rats! Birdie Allendale can't sing for green apples.” master of ceremonies glared in the Mirection of the speaker and then, wi imperious gesture and | in thunderous es, feplied: “Neverthe- 4 ator who is an avowed and uncompro- mising advocate of the free coinage of silver.

Holland in the Philadelphia Press. Ever since Mr. E. ©, ® partners '| Tecetved several hours before any one else informa- in this city knew it the important tion that Mr. Cleveland was going to sum mon Congress in extraordinary session, so that the Sherman law might be repealed, Wall street has assumed that Mr. Benedict's connections with the Administration were almost of telephonic closeness. Therefore when Mr. Beriedict announces that it win be a bad day for the Democracy if it does not stand upon a financial platform which contains a plank calling for the withdrawal of the greenbacks he is very naturally sup- posed to give some hint of Mr. Cleveland's view upon these matters. It did cause a little surprise that Mr. Benedict should have been either bold or cunning enough to intimate that the time had come for the creation of a new party, pledged to bring about sound and perma- nent financial systems for the Treasury and the people. But Mr. Benedict is sometimes ‘| impulsive, and it has been thought that that suggestion was made before he had carefully weighed his words. Mr. Benedict’s pretty yacht. the Oneida, steamed into Greenwich narbor last Thurs- day morning, bringing Mr. Benedict back from an excursion to Gray Gables. On the following day he made these public asser- tions, His intimacy with the Presidént is due partly to the fqndness of each of them for the salt water, and very considerably to the passion each of them has for the game of cribbage. Mr. Benedict’s friends say that he is a more expert fisherman than the President, and yet cares far less for that sport than Cleveland does. But whatever their common tastes may be for pastimes and outdoor recreations, these do not ab- sorb them so that they have no time to talk upon business or financial conditions. The intimacy is so close that no doubt during conversations upon the financial situation Mr. Benedict continues to address the Pres- ident as “Admiral,” while Mr. Cleveland does not fail to say Commodore“ when he wants to rpeak to Mr. Benedict. Therefore, Mr. Benedict would have been careful not to say anything which might prove em- barrassing for Mr. Cleveland, only two or three months before Mr. Cleveland ts to find himself face to face with a Republican Congress. Impetuous as he is, Mr. Benedict does not go off at half-cock, at least when political or financial subjects in which Mr. Cleveland is interested are under discussion. Yet after all, there is nothing really astonishing in this assertion of Mr. Benedict's, and those who have reason to believe that they have accurate information of Mr. Cleveland's view say that Mr. Benedict represents that view very accurately. The Press has already reported that Mr. Cleveland is believed by the leading mem- bers of the Reform Club to be in complete accord with the view set forth by that club formally at a meeting in the spring. In a word, that opinion is that the financial in- terest of this country requires first of all a gold standard or measure of money. Second, that the greenbacks should be withdrawn as rapidly as possible from cir- culation and destroyed. Third, that private capital be permitted wherever and whenever it chooses to embark in the banking busi- ness, and that the Government should lay no restraining hand upon these partnerships or corporations to prevent their issuing notes. Next that national banking should be made as free as possible,.and that the security for the national bank notes should be established by a reserve fund rather than by a deposit of bonds, Mr. Benedict limited his suggestion to the retirement of the greenbacks, but if he rep- resents Mr. Cleveland’s view that is only a part of the programme which Cleveland’s friends, led by the Reform Club, and preb- ably, by and by, by Mr. Cleveland himself, have now in mind. JAIL BIRDS ON THE WING. Escape ef Twelve Frem the County Jail at Geneva, III. AURORA, III., Aug. 29.—Tweive prisoners escaped from the County Jail at Geneva last night during the absence of Sheriff Robert Burke, who was in this city serving legal papers. A searching party was quickly or- ganized and all of the towns within a radius of forty miles were notified of the affair. Two of the prisoners who had not succeeded in 8 very far were run down by the posse and captured. The other ten are yet at large.

One trial of Kinloch was enough, and then Dowd had his turn.

Denny was hurt in the service of t Trowns and had to take to his bed. Ch demanded that he move from his boarding- house because it was over a saloon, and Lyons was unable to comply. Thereupon he was laid off without salary until he obeyed the order of the President of the Sportsman's Park Club. Denny foolishly tried to play before he was well, and that resulted in his release. Chris could do no better now than to get Lyons back on third. If Tim Hurst e nit celebrate his re- turn to the ball field, he could not have d u more inauspicious thing than to call the Browns-Washington game Wednesday at the end of the first half of the eighth. It looked like a mere pretense, his refusal to call the game before the Washingtons went to the bat in the eighth, and he only waited for two men to step to the plate before doing it, as a subterfuge. It was a rank piece of ‘business, Mr. Hurst. ROBBED BY HURST. The Browns Won Fairly But Were Cheated Ont of the Game. The Browns won Wednesday’s game from Washington, but were held up by Tim Hurst. The score stood § to 5 in the sev- enth inning, and Washington wanted the game call on account of darkness. Hurst refused. The Browns made three runs in the eighth, and for the Washingtons one man had struck out. Then Hurst called the game and the score went back to even in- nings.

FREE STRERT CAR RIDES. New Order en the Broadway Line, Owing to H. H. Timken. The Broadway cable line has a new rule which is certainly a novelty in the street car business. Hereafter any man who wish- es to may ride on this line free of charge. The conductors have received orders to al- low persons who’ refuse to pay their fare to remain on the car as long as they please. This rule arises from trouble which Con- ductor George Menifee had with Henry H. Timken of the Timken Carriage Co., Broadway and Branch street, and which re- sulted in Menifee’s being discharged. One evening about ten days ago, accord- ing to the story of the street car men, Mr. Timken hailed Menifee’s car in the middle of the block west of Branch street. The car, in accordance with the rules of the company, did not stop and Mr. Timken, catching on as best he could, sat down in a towe ng — — When enifee asked for Timken’s fare, the latter refused to give it to him, because the car had not stopped. The conductor waited until six blocks had passed and went again for the nickel. This time he met with a more emphatic refusal than ever, so he t ays. oT will pay when I get good and ready,” said Mr. Timken. . Orders are orders on the Broadway line, and one of the orders at that time was that no passenger should be permitted to ride free. Remembering this, Conductor Menifee pulled the bell and invited Timk tc alight. This invitation was retype, serious trouble was threatened. e st man etarted for the rear coach and ‘ Timken would have probabl "been a in the street, when an acquaintance who was on the car, stopped the trouble paying the fare. Two days later Menifee was 1 told that Mr, Timken to Capt. McCullough that attempted to beat him, while held bim.

Rev. Tyrrell has just returned from his vacation, and. will begin active work at once for Sunday closing and the better ad- ministration of the laws. To a Post-Dis- patch reporter he said: : “I suppose the desire of the promoters of the tent meeting is to crystallize public sen- timent and lead the same practical reform- atory work.“ Along what line he will talk he had not made up his mind up to noon. He said — 1 — . 8 WSS fHE REV. FRANK G. TYRELL OF Sr. LOUIS. a great deal would depend on the audience. The work of the Sabbath Association, he said, has not been dropped, but no aggress- ive work could be done during the summer with so many of the active workers out of the city. He said he could see no reason why those who have been spending their time and money on the question should quit. He looks upon the work that h been done as merely the preliminary skirm- ish, with the task hardly begun. The lecture will not be delivered by Mr. Tyrrell as a representative of any organiza- tion. He is not well enough acquainted with the promoters of the tent meeting to know exactly what they expect from him, further than they asked him to speak on the subject named. If they want to make a red hot fight for Sunday closingg he is ready and willing to de all he can. “In my lecture to-night,” said Dr. Tyrrell, “TIT shall probably discuss the saloon as an anarchistie element in society. The saloons have been closed in Kansas Sity and in New York on Sunday, and if they can be closed in either place, there is no reason why it can be done here. The divine then gave the South Side and the Fair Grounds race tracks a hard dig and paid his compliments to race horse men and gamblers in general. “There is plenty of room for reform in St. Louis,” he contitued. “Chicago has shut down its race tracks and the race track gamblers have come to St. Louls, The Gouth Side track, I consider as little better than an gnte-room to hell. | “And, far as straight racing goes, th the Fair Groun trac I am he when I think of t are at the head of it. I don’t belleve there is such a thing as decent horse racing. I am alittle like Sam Jones. He said he liked good horses, but he had not been to a race course — twenty ears. He said if they would reed up their men as well as their horses he wouldn’t mind It seems like the attention they pay to their horses the their men become. ; BRANCH IN THE EAST.

Hermsdorf black, imported to sell WRITS OF REPLRVIN Are Not Obtainable in Down-Town Jus tices’ Courts. Lawyers having business in the justices’ courts want fo know why they can never secure writs of repievin in the courts of the two down-town justices, Spaulding and Shechan, Since the new law went into effect putting justices of the peace on sal- ariee, applications in these two courts for such writs have been refused invariably, and litigants compeHed to go to outlying justices of the peace. These writs are among’ the most important issued in justices’ courts. Complaining lawyers state that when application for such writs becomes fecessary, it is vital that they be issued and served at once, in order to prevent the removal of property. Frequently the necessity of two rity tions, the second necessitating a trip of many blocKs, requires so much time as to practically nullify the writ when secured. At the office of Justice 2 Tenth and Olive streets, John homas Brady, brother of Constable Ben Brady and an unsalaried assistant to that official, called upon Deputy Constable Allison to explain, in the absence of Mr. Brady. We won't bother with such writs, be- cause we haven't a sufficient force of con- Stables to serve them,” said Mr. Allison. “I do not know whether we have a legal right to refuse them, but certainly they ought to go to the uptown justices, who do much less business than we. I understand that some of those justices are refusing them because they are not in their district. They have no right to refuse any writs on that score except a certain specified list, which does not includé writs of replev- in. We have some cases a month in this court, and can hardly serve the writs on these with one constable and two deputies without bothering with writs of replevin. It’s the same in Justice Sheehan’s court. We are mostly occupied with landlords’ summons. We do more business in this court than any of the other justices, pos- sibly excepting Justice Sheehan’s,’’ Lawyer MoManus, when asked about the right of these justices to refuse writs of replevin, stated that he believed it to be contrary to law. “They could be mandamused.“ said he, “but no one wants to take that trouble. It would require time, too, and time is everything in replevin cases.“ THE ST. CLAIR COUNTY FAIR. Four Days’ Celebration to Be Held at Belleville, III.

J., Bartender's Battle With Thugs on a Bridge. NEWARK, N. J. Aug. 29.—Three men shot, two of them probably fatally, is the | result of @ shooting affray which took place last night on New Jersey Railroad avenue near the Market Street Station of the Penn- arvana Railroad. The man who did the ting is John Moore, 3 years old, em- loved as a bartender. His victims are: John O’Brien, 21 years old; shot in back of head and skull probably crushed with butt of revolver. James O’Brien, 2 years old; shot in fore- head; wound not serious. John Donlan, shot in left breast. Moore is locked up at the police station. He is in a pitiable condition, his face 1 kicked almost out of human semblance an his body covered with bruises. The locality in which the shooting took lace is known as The Bend,“ and is close the River Street Bridge of the Morris Canal. On this bridge there is always a crowd, whose practice is to hold up people for the price of drinks. The story told by Moore as to what led up to the affair is be- .Meved by the police to be correct. He says he had incur the enmity of some of these loafers by his refusal to treat them. Yes- terday their threats to do him up“ were more determined than ever. When Moore was ready last night to leave his place he saw some of his enemies near the bridge and more on the block toward Commerce street. He had to cross the bridge to get home, and, fearing an attack, placed a re- volver in his pocket. When he reached the bridge he was attacked and before he tould draw his revolver was knocked down, while several of his assailants began to kick and punch him. He shouted for help and after a struggle reached his revolver and regained his feet. He at once opened fire. Some of the ye | * ran, but others rushed at him, an e had to retreat, running and firing as he ran. The first man seen to fall was John O’Brien. As O’Brien fell, Moore stooped over and dealt him a heavy blow on the back of the head. Moore retreated a few steps farther, and, turning ain, fired an- other shot, this one striking James O'Brien in the center of the forehead and glancing off. Two more shots were fired by Moore, one of which struck Donlan in the left breast. The noise attracted the police, who arrested Moore and sent the wounded men to the city hospitals. DETERMINED STRIKERS. Rochester Garment-Workers Confident of Gaining Their Point. ROCHESTER, N. T., Aug. 29.—The strike situation among the garmentmakers re- maing unchanged, except that more hands have gone out. The bosses show no in- clination to accede to the demands of the and .the latter are firm in their ntention to fight to the end. The strikers are frm, and assert that they will spring another surprise on them to-day. The strikers say that they are not satisfied in tying up the smaller shops, and if the props tenses of these shops do not accede o the demands of the strikers and if the secret union of the manufacturers and the bosses becomes more formidable, the strik- ers say that they will come to something more decisive. We have a weapon to use against them,“ said a leader, “which, when it is called into use, will bring them to terms.” Big dealers refused to make any state ments of their side of the situation and seem confident of success. Several shops will attempt to-.start up o- day with non-union help. Last night 200 buttonhole-workers at a meeting decided to strike in sympathy with the men now out. ON THE BELLAMY PLAN. Montrose Co-Operative Colony Just Es tablished in Colorado. | TOPEKA, Kan., Aug. 20.—Mrs. Anna L.. Diggs, the agitator, and Dr. S. McLallin, editor of the Advocate, the official paper of the Populist party ih sas, have just returned from Montrose County, Colo., where oa | have been to establish Montrose County co-operative colony. The colony is to be conducted on the Bellamy plan and is being promoted by the same organization that a year ago perfected arrangements for establishing a colony about fifty miles below Washington. The Potomac’ location was abandoned, Mrs. Diggs says, because of its unhealthfulness. The Colorado colony is to be located on Government land, which will be taken up under the homestead and desert land act laws. . Intending colonists have already filed u I. 4. acres of land, and ten men have located there and begun work, making reparations for the reception of the colon- and their families. Other members of the proposed colony will in a few days file upon fully 5,000 acres more. Mrs. Diggs now claims a residence in Colorado, and ove that one reason which that State was selected for her colony is that women there have their political rights, and that gde is tired of battling for them elsewhere with- out result.

The trouble originated over a business quarrel in the latter city between the mother organizations, and the feeling of discord spread to this city and there has been a desire — the part ot the rivals © boycott each other. : Chin-Fong, a well known Chinese mer- chant, who owns a restaurant in Pell street, came out on the sidewalk last night and ad- dresed a large crowd of his trymen. Acting Captain Johnny, of the Elizabeth Street Station, in anticipation of trouble, had stationed a number of patroimen in the vicinity and as soon as the crowd became demonstrative, Chin-Fong was ordered to desist. The police dispersed the crowd. This put a damper on Chin and his follow- ers and they gave up the attempt to hold an open air meeting.
