If that contract be wrongfully terminated by the there is no means of estimating the of the plaintiff's damage and loss. value of contract to plaintiff, even as Lod as concerns the feature of emp e- pends upon his being permitted to remain in control. He can remain in the position of manager and editor only in the event of producing the required result. H his contract is peculiarly one personal to him- self. Necessarily it is not ass ble. very condition of his emptoyment is found in the results of his own labor, enterprise, skill, experience and foresight. To unlawfully oust him from the performance of his con- tract is to prevent him from establishing the only test of the success or failure of his efforts, and his work. Furthermore, as bas already been indicated, the value of the stock acquired by plaintiff de upon his being permitted to carry out his contract. He found the newspaper suffering from great depression of business. He has re- stored it to prosperity, ualling its best days of success. But to make his stock val- uable, to win the profit which his labor deserves, he must be left untrammeled, to plan, direct and move as he sees fit, and the determination as to what should or should not be done rests with him and with him alone. The situation, therefore, is peculiar- ly one for the intervention of a court of equity. The damage to plaintiff will be ir- reparable if his contract is unlawfully ter- minated as is proposed by the defendants. In any event there can be no adequate remedy at law. Whether the court regards the stiuation under the general doctrine of equitable jurisdiction, or looks at it under the statute in regard to injunctions, the con- sequence will be the same. The defendants should be enjéined from removing the plain- tiff from his position as manager and editor because his contract is personal to himself, there is no method of estimating the damage to him under its breach and there is no adequate remedy at law. It is well known to the court that at law even where there is an adequate remedy at law, an injunction Will be granted in all cases where an ade- quate remedy cannot be afforded by an ac- tion for damages as on such. 8 It is not even necessary that the damage threatened would be irreparable to sustain the right to equitable relief by injunction. “I submit that upon the petition and evi- dence adduced the prayer for injunction should be granted. extent The Judge Finkelnburg followed Gen. Lewis for the defense. He started out with the as- sertion that he had not been able to prepare a formal printed ar mt. He reviewed hastily the position of orations and their relations to the State. he law prescribes the number of persons who can compose a corporation as well ag Umit the capital so invested. The law also invested the officers of a corporation with certain limited powers and required strict accounts of the corpora- tlon's acts to be made to the State. It was hardly necessary to follow up this state- ment with the other statement that a eorporation cannot act counter to the law creating it. Any contract with a corpora- tion 2 — 1 not made in ac- cordance w e law is against the order of the State. ” 0 Judge Finkelnburg then contested tha Pulitzer Publishing Company was me poration in the strictest sense of the law, and was so recognized by the plaintiff in his prayer for injunctive relief. The contract with the plaintiff alse recognized the existence of the corporation. The plain himself had so recognized it in participating in the proceedings of the directcrs and st c holders. But the plaintiff came fo said that he had a contract with stockholder of the corporation for t trol of the corporation’s affairs years at an annual salary of $10,000. An effort was now being made to show that this contract was also entered into by the corporation itself. Judge Finkelnburg de- nied this, and carefully read the contract in support of his dental. The contract, he said, spoke of, but not for, the corporation. It therefore amounted to noth more than and Pulitzer.

After a stormy career, covering almost the entire period of its existence, the Ori- real thing, and the new theater at Seven- teenth and Pine streets has been taken by the architects and contractors whe are building it. Charles W. Whitney, business manager of the enterprise, has been re- moved and a new man installed in his place. The old company, of which Whitney was the organizer and prime mover, was suc- ceeded Saturday ht by a new one made up of Kirchner & Kirchner, the architects Samuel Jones, Charies Kroell sever sub-contractors who are doing work on the building. The business will be run with as few changes as possible, and the house will be opened next Saturday night, ac- cording to programme. This was decided upon at a meeting of the new company, which was held in the office of Kirchner & Kirchner Monday afternoon. It was said that Col Charles Pope. who was to be the manager under the old com- y, would be supplanted by a new man, but this Col.

There has also been more or less friction between Mr. Whitney and the opera. troupe that was brought on from New York 7 Pope over the non-payment of sal- aries. The theater was to have been opened two weeks ago, and all the ple were here, but the work could not be completed. Since then it has been rushed as fast as possible and next Saturday night is the date now set for the opening. There is plenty of work to be done and it does not seem posible that it can be ready in time, but H. W. Kirehner, one of the architects, says it can. George McKenzie, leader of the chorus. was seen by a Post-Dispatch reporter and asked whether the company had been bad- ly treated.

* RELIGIOUS DIFFERENCES. Se Application to the Probate Ceurt for Means to Settle the Trouble of 2 Lifetime. Mrs. Katie Childress and her husband visited the Probate Court Monday to ascer- tain how they could obtain possession of certain property said to belong to their dead daughter Hattie. They stated that the oroperty consisted of a piano and folding bed now at 5829 Old Manchester road, the home of Mrs. Childress’ mother, Mrs. Nancy J. LaPear. Haitie Childress died August 0, last, aged A. at the residence of Mrs. La- ear, with whom she had lived all her life. Mrs. Childress was anxious to narrate her alleged grievances against her mother, and she told a long story of religious differ- ences and famiiy dissensions.

Mrs. Childress says that out of her earn- ings Hattie purchased the piano and fold- ing bed and that the La Pears intend to sel! the articles to buy a lot in SS. Peter and Paul’s Catholic Cemetery, where Hattie is buried in a single grave. Mrs. Childress was told that she could Ake out letters of administration on the daughter's estate, provided she would give bond. Mrs. Childress seemed anxious about the piano, as she said she wanted it for her 14-year-old daughter. Mr. and Mrs. LaPear, when seen, denied charges. They said that a Catholic before she Childress’ Childress was Mrs. Mrs. ‘as married, and was educated by them a convent, but she became a Methodist later life.

To the intense surpr! young Mr. Blodgett was stopped by the gatekeeper, who refused to allow him to enter the train shed on the ground that he had no bridge ticket. He had transportation clear through to his destination, presumably passes on ac- count of his father’s prominence in fai road circles, but the gatekeeper was obdu- rate and refused to admit him unless he — — show the necessary ticket over the ridge. Remonstrance was of no avail. The gate- man said orders were orders and if Mr. ae owned every road entering the sta- tion he would not pass him through to the train unless he had the required ticket. He blocked thé way and the in | man could not pass. It ked only a few minutes till train time and hl agg was beginnin to get anxious. Finally Mr. Dickson an Attorney Blodgett seized the young man by either arm and ran the blockade. He was forced through the gate in spite of its keep- er and the party made for the train. The gateman was greatly provoked by this coup and was inclined to raise a row when a police officer interfered. The young ladies were badly frightened. Mr. Blodgett threatened to take steps to have the gate- keeper discharged. UNINSPECTED BOILERS. Inspector Price Says His Force Is Not Large Eneugh. sy moved towards 3 22, on which There are boilers in St. Louis which have not been inspected for a dozen years or more. Three such were discovered last week which had not been inspected since 1882. There are probably hundreds of others which the department knows nothing about and which are never inspected. This means not only increased risk of life and limb from explosions, but a cash loss to the city, as a fee of $5 for each inspection is paid. The reason for this state of affairs, Boil- er Inspector Price says, is that it is a physical impossibility for th present force to do the work. There are avout 3,000 boil- ers of which the department has a record and collects inspection fees from. Mr. Price thinks there are several hundred, possibly a thousand, more which the department has no record of. The ordinance only gives the office one deputy boiler inspector. It had the same when the office was estab- lished, more than twenty-five years ago. The enormous increase in the number of factories and other boiler-using concerns has seen no increase in the office force, and to cover the bi-yearly inspections re- quired would oblige one man to inspect nine boilers a day. Mr. Price says it takes three hours to properly inspect a boiler, to say nothing of the time spent in going from one place to another. Either the work cannot be properly done, or some boilers must go uninspected. The insur- ance companies inspect a number of boilers where they carry insurance. If their in- spection is sat..factory to the owner the city boiler inspector adopts it and col- lects the inspection fee without making an- other inspection, Otherwise he must in- spect it. ox “To keep half way 2 with the work,“ said Boiler Inspector Price yesterday, I have been putting in Sundays and half the nights assisting my deputy. For the last two weeks I have not got home a night be- fore midnight. My deputy has been work- ing from 6 o’clock in the morning until late at night, and both of us have been working Sundays. This is not required of us, but we have been doing it. I am going to ask the Municipal Assembly for another depu- ty. It will be a gain to the city instead of an additional expense. This office is self- supporting. For July, August and Septem- ber I turned into the city treasury $1,3@ more than has ever been turned in in the Same time since the office was created, and I have another deposit to make. An addi- tional inspector at $100 a month, and a ve- hicle would not decrease the surplus, but would increase it. There are hundreds of oilers which escape us altogether. Some are inspected by insurance companies and vot reported to us; others are not insured and are never inspected. , People have to come and beg us over and over again to in- spect their boilers before we have time to do Others would be willing to pay for hav- ing their boilers inspected every two months for the safety insured by it, but we have a hard time making the inspections required by law instead of doing extra work. It is plain, then, that an extra man would make more than his wages by his work. The office now turns into the treasury a surplus of $2,000 a year; with another man the sur- plus could easily be raised to $3,000, to say nothing of reducing to a minimum the dan- ger from hundreds of boilers going unin- spected. We came across three boilers re- centiy which had not been inspected for thirteen years. We had no record of their existence. There is no doubt there are scores of boilers which have never been inspected.” CUPPED IN HIS CUPS. Frank O’Hare, Target for a Weman, Was Bafe, Accidents will occur in the best regulated families so that it is no wonder, since the family of Frank O’Hare, 919 North Ninth street, rear, is not well regulated that Mrs. O’Hare in trying to maul her husband should have accidentally rendered her 10-year-old stepson Tommie hors de combat.

GIRLS AGREE 10 Horz. Miss Amy Pourcely the Latest to Keep Her Word. Such minor obstacles as parental objec- tion didn’t bother Amy Pourcely and Fred Chappius, two love-sick South St. Souisians. Nearly two months ago they hied them- selves to Clayton and were made one. Fred Essen, the genial justice, had his suspi- cions about the young man being of age, but he said he was, and that was all there Was to it. y g Although man and wife since Aug. 10, the elopers managed to keep the old folks ignorant of the facts until Monday even- ing. After the ceremony Amy went back to her home North Broadway, and Fred to his, 1026 Hickory street. He called on his wife every night, and probably would have been satisfied to continue leading that kind. of a married life for some time to come, but the mother-in-law interfered. She spoke right out and told him, Monday night, that it was not proper for a young man to call on a young lady every et. unless they were engaged, and, she added as he was 19 years ald and her daughter 21 the disparity in ages would not permit of such a denouement. Of course, she said, she knew it was simply a feeling of friend- ship that brought Fred around, Imagine the feelings of the young couple, especially Freddie, although he was stand- ing in the front yard and the wind was pretty stiff and cold, large beads of perspi ration chased each other down his forehead and down his cheeks were other beads not of the same consistency. Then he gasped out something—Mrs. Pourcely knew it all. What followed not even the young hus- band could attempt to describe. Mrs. Pourcely insisted that Fred's mother be in- formed, and although the young couple begged hard they were compelled to go and now every one knows the secret. There are also threats being made by the parents, but the young people are not worried. Chappius is a smooth-faced, very young- looking fellow, who has not yet learned the use of the razor. He works at the Geisel Manufacturing Company’s office, Second street and Clark avenue. “We eloped simply bevause a chum of my wife’s had done the same thing.“ he said to a Post-Dispatch reporter. The chum referred to is Eugenia Southard daughter of the ex-Sewer Commissioner, now Mrs. Ed Primeau. “Why we girls agreed at school that we would elope, if it ever fell to our lot to ve married,“ she said. Three other girls were in on the agree- ment, according to reports, and of these Mrs. Pourcely makes the fourth to have married. POSTPONED THBIR MEBTING. Federation of Labor Will Not Get Together Until Nov. 4. The State Convention of the American Federation of Labor, scheduled to open at 10 o’clock Tuesday morning at Walhalla Hall, failed to materialize. At the ap- pointed hour a few scattering delegates assembled about the doors, which were locked, and after waiting awhile went away. There was a strong suggestion of frost when a Post-Dispatch reporter ar- rived. An inquiry of the barkeeper of the Walhalla saloon elicited “Dunno nothing bout no convention.“ C. J. Anderson, Secretary of the Trades and Labor Union, was hunted up and he was able to explain that the convention had been postponed until Nov. 4. This action was taken by President Rhodes of Kansas City in view of the complaints of some of the St. Louis unions that time enough had not been given to elect delegates. @ or- der of postponement was ee Monday, it being published jn the Midland Mechanic, the official organ, of that date. It was expected had the convention met, as originally intended, that the St. Louis unions would have protested, and President odes’ action is construed as a conciliat- ory move. The trouble between the American Feder- ation of Labor and the Knights of Labor, which has been brewing for years and which culminated in this city recently in the Treatrical Brotherhood troubles, will occupy much of the time of this convention and some outspoken declarations are antici- pated. Therefore, the importance of a full representation caused the postponement. i LEMONS WILL COME DOWN. — — —— Arriving in New Yerk in Heavy Cargoes.

According to latest developments, Dolly Wallace didn’t get all the money blown in by Defaulter Alfred L. Avery, who so sud- denly decamped for parts unknown, leaving , Messmore, Gannett & Co. and the Mound | City Council, National Union, many thou- sand dollars in the lurch. Besides his passion for Dolly, Avery was a sporting gentleman from soup to nuts,“ as they say at the actors’ boarding-houses. When looking for excitement he took the bridle off, to quote from | spo was a poker fiend of the most pronounced type. Well known at many of the poker | games around town, he was considered a West End games run on | m avenues and Gar- | i regular at the two Jefferson and Washi rison avenue near Olive. Said one well-known man-about-town who often sat in the game with him, “I have known Avery to start in on Saturda night and keep it up until Monday morning. He had a mania for poker, but couldn't little bit. I seldom saw him win a bet. When- ever he sat in a game the boys regarded him as easy money and next day would get to- gether, laughing and joking about what a ‘mark’ he was for everybody.” An Incident is related as to what a high ré- gard Avery’s employers entertained towards him. One of them was a member of the se- cret society of which he was secretary and some time prior to the recent expose there was talk of a discrepancy in his accounts. This gentleman was highly indignant over the insinuations cast upon his cashier's in- tegrity, and was positive nothing of the kind could exist. He even went so far as to say he would be Lage gg responsible for any differences from $500 to $1,000. While no doubt Avery dissipated a consid- erable amount of the pilfered funds on gambling and sporting, the majority was spent on Dolly Wallace. Madly infatuated with her, she had everything at his com- mand and worked him to a finish. RHEY BOYD'S DEATH. Coroner Decides That He Died From L PYTHIAN PRESS DBLEGATES. |WOMAN'S FAVORITE WEAPON.

She was charged with disturbing the peace of Mrs. Lucinda ouis Tuesday morning for a two days’ the St. Nicholas Hotel, Alcoholism. The verdict of the Coroner’s jury in the case of Rody Boyd, who was found dead in bed at Paducah, Ky., Monday morning, was that death was the result ot alcohol ism. As he had been drinking heavily and had threatened suicide, it was at first sur- mised that he had taken his own life. Boyd was well known in St. Louls, having been connected with one of the sensations of this city. In 1886 he eloped from Pa- ducah with Miss Lucy Grimes and came here, expecting to practice law. He chose the wrong way and went on a spree, de- serting his young wife. After starving for several days she killed herself in despair at 1106 Chouteau avenue. Her body was not found for several days. Several years ago Boyd married Miss Lillie Rieke of Paducah, who is also well known here through her vsiits to relatives here. He drank shamefully and some time ago took the Keeley cure, after which he Was converted by Sam Jones. He got to drinking again, however, but was after- wards reconverted and conducted several revivals. Ten days ago he came to St. Louis and again went to pieces. He returned to Pa- ducah and abused his wife so Sunday night that she left him. The next morning they found him dead. Boyd was 42 8 old and a fine lawyer, but erratic. is father was a prominent figure in Kentucky politics. HE WAS HUNGRY.

Nowhere in the West did uch enterprise push and energy ‘is. It is a beautiful city, a A center, and one of the great- that I have ever visited. Its peo- ce hospitable and Chesterfieldian. t will be noted from this brief para- aph that Mr. Gould is not only observ- t, but he has the art of saying a great al in a few words. In a few lines he tributes to St. Louis all the qualities of great and attractive city. It is a fine ty, a beautiful city, a great railroad tes, a great city, full of push, energy -Aterprise and of hospitable people th Chesterfieldian manners. ir. Gould is a man of taste. Although thorough business man, he pays at- ntion to the Aner things of life that ake it worth living. He noted the eauties of St. Louis and the fact that 3 people were hospitable and Chester- 2idian. Mr. Gould has been abroad and as seen the beautiful cities of the Old ‘orld, and he knows what beauty is. fe has been in the Prince of Wales’ set ind has hobnobbed with the aristocracy he knows what it is to be Chester- Ma. Of course St. Louisans know all of these 1ings about St. Louis and themselves. hey know that St. Louis is a great, ne, beautiful city and that they are ushing, energetic, enterprising, hospit- able and Chesterfieldian, but they are too modest to say so. But when a man who knows says so they are bound blushingly ‘o admit the facts. — TWO TARIFF OBJECT LESSONS. Two excellent object lessons on the subject of protection are now being pre- ented by the United States and France. Harold Frederic, the correspondent of ne New York Times, writes that under he protective tariff adopted by France 1 1890 the trade of that country has allen into desperate straits. Up to the time of the adoption of the tariff the French foreign trade showed a steady gain. Since then it has shown à heavy and constant diminution. The total fall- ing off of imports and exports within “our years has reached the sum of $260,- 000,000. Under the McKinley taniff the United ‘States was plunged into a condition of business depression that was marked by the decrease of trade, the consequent rediction of wages, strikes and the shut- ting-down of factories and shops. Un- der the jnfluende of a substantial reduc- tion of the tariff we are just emerging m ess distress and are entering ef prosperity. rience of every nation that 1% proves that a high protective an instrument of oppression and dlight on trade and industry. a — Se | APPLES, FOR WHOM? baten appeared in yester- Shout how cheap apples It appears that greenings "6 cents a barrel.

"The Chicago Times-Herald has secured an expression of opinion favorable to a short Presidential campaign from sev- enty newspaper editors and declares its belief that 90 per cent of the voters would agree with them. The estimated per cent in favor of a short campaign is low. The business men would be a unit on the subject. A Presidential campaign is a disturbing factor in business. It is a period of un- rest, uncertainty and unnatural excite- ment. Its influence on the normal activ- ities of the people and on business en- terprise is deadening. It is doubtful if any votes would be cast in favor of a long campaign except by the professional politicians and their parasites of every grade. The men who live by politics of course want a long campaign—the longer the better. Our usual campaigns of four and five months are absurdly burdensome on the candidates and the people. The candi- dates are worn out and the people are talked to death. The whole country is exhausted. One month is sufficient for presenting the arguments and doing the canvassing. The rest of the time is spent in “Gamnable iteration,” as Shakspeare calls it and in corrupt scheming and manipulation. All the solid arguments can be pre- sented and the legitimate work done in one month. Two months should be the outside limit. The middle of September is amply early for nominating conven- tions. GOOD LITERATURE. There is truth in the rematk of the Rev. Dr. Boyd to the Evangelical Alli- ance that the Sunday-school library with its insipid religious novel is responsible for creating a taste for sensational read- ing. tion of how to regulate the reading of the young so as to keep them from reading pernicious books. Dr. Boyd emphasized his opinion as to the ill effects of the insipid Sunday-school book by saying library and proposes to offer the young people of his church a collection of real literature without regard to whether it should be lost sight of in selecting profit- able reading. Dr. Boyd’s conclusion is simply an affirmation of the danger of prejudice’ what “to, and the public ‘| would be benefited all around. ¢ > By advice of counsel, the editor of the mto since his un nal career was a . ned far bins bY Mr: Watterson.

Ben- nett, who three years ago mysteriously dis- appeared from Clay County, III., has been found in this city, and the suspicion of mur- der which all that time had rested on two young farmers of Clay County has been re- moved. Three years ago Bennett, who was quite a rover, took his home with James and Ja- cob McKinney near Sailor Springs. He had been a book canvasser, and had traveled over much of the South and West. The MeKinney brothers lived alone in a large, handsome house near the outskirts of the town. The boys were reputed to be rich. A strong friendship at once sprung up between them and Bennett, the latter being of a pleasant, jovial disposition and easily approached. He was a carpenter by trade and handy with tools. Besides, he could turn a hand at cooking, all of which recommended him to the brothers, who were in need of a cook, and much preferred a man to a woman. Bennett went to the farm as an all-round man, and everyone seemed to be pleased. While at the farm Bennett often went to the little town near by and made many acquaintances. After remajning with the McKinneys for nearly a year, Bennett suddenly disap- red. Bennett left his trunk at the Mc- inneys’ house, which seemed to add to the mystery. He had frequently told them that when he left he would not take his trunk, but would leave directions as to where to send it. Mystified by his strange disappear- ance, they looked high and low for some clew that he might have left, but were un- able to discover anything. In the meantime it became a matter of public talk that Ben- nett had disa red under peculiar circum- stances, and it was not ion before the finger of suspftion was pointed at the two brothers. About this time another strange thing oc- curred to stregnthen the suspicions against the brothers. The barn was burned. It was at once surmised that the brothers had burned the barn to hide some crime, and search was made in the wreck of the barn. Hidden among the ashes were found bones, which appeared to be human, and teeth that looked e they might also be human. Shortly afterward an old suit of clothes, which were identified by some of those who knew Bennett, were found in an old well. The evidence of the clothes and bones was tho t to be final and convincing. The people of Sailor ngs were wrought tO a frenzy and for time there were ru- mors of a „ The brothers, feeling their innocence, felt no uneasiness until ht a mob attacked their. house and to take them out 9 them. 80 piteously and argued ‘nig out. their intentions left without carry out their inten » This again aroused the public, and the au- thorities felt that something had to be done. They ordered the arrest of the brothers. The men gave bonds in the sum of $20,000, and were released pending their trial. They at once began to make a search for the lost Bennett and spent 11 1 fortune in doing so, but up Se 3. 9 trace o m. — could secure no a eat his nett was in ignorance Sines — had Ne about.

Women Chess Players. In the spring of 1893 a few women met informally and organized what is now known as the Women's Chess Association of America.“ In January, 1834, they elected their officers. Their roll of membership is at present seventy-five, including a number of honorary members, selected from among the best women * in England and Ireland, the champion player of Eng- land, Miss Mary Rudge, and Mrs. Row- land, of Ireland, being among the number. For three years a game has been in progress between Mrs. Rowland and a member of the American Association and the issue is still uncertain. Girls in Agriculture. Minnesota papers speak with ride of the results achieved by the Girls’ School of Agriculture in that State, said to be the only one in the country. It has been estab- lished for some time, and has sent young women into the world who will be valuable aids to the farmers lucky enough to win their educated hearts and hands. The stu- dents receive instruction in cooking, can- ning, sewing, dairying, fruit and flower cul- ture, household chemistry and entomology, certainly good subjects for farmers’ daugh- ters and farmers’ wives to know thoroughly.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE. The Exposition Season. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The Exposition is altogether the feature of this town. I like it. Everybody likes it city and country alike. It's an immense ‘‘ad.’’—draws like a fly blister and its shad- ow is hot likely to grow less. But its ses- sion surely begins too soon; at least, two weeks. Plainly the season of the should commence not earlier than the 20th of September, continuing open forty days, and ending about Nov. 1. September is one of our hottest months. Many of our citizens are away, and those that are com- pelled to remain at home prefer to take chanees at the suburban resorts to swelter- ing the Exposition Building. The at- tendahce for the past few (cool) evenings proves my assertion. If you will e the trouble to inquire you will learn that the admissions to the Ex. have never id ex- penses for the two opening weeks. The rofits have come thereafter, at least, so am informed. This communication is not in the nature of a “kick.” I highly esteem the mem- bers of the Board of Directors, and possi- bly there is some reason why the season is set so early. If it is an oversight on their art let them partly remedy it by extend- ng this season, say, a week or ten days. It will put money in the “Bx,”-chequer, numerous readers on this subject.

Gibson has allowed himself to be interviewed Sor publication and the first uestion asked was: ; What do you think of Mr. Deupréy’s speech as an argument in defense of Mr. Durrant?” | “Well, it is a mystery to me how any man of Mr. Deuprey’s and experience comes deliver such a reckless talk when he h his hand the life or death of a Reading between the lines it is easy to see that the was not the one he ntended to deliver. It resembles the ser- on prepared on Sunday morning after the , discovered that for various rea- sons he could not use the one he had worked on for weeks.”’ os ‘ y did you remain silent so long? “Because as a witness I had no right to alk, and I was willing to take my share of ewspaper criticism.“ “Do you think the situation is changed?” es. I ain virtually accused of the mur- ade My name is singled out from among all the witnesses and uttered in loud tones to the jury. Mr. Deuprey has declared the fight on. The issue now, according to him, is between W. H. T. Durrant and myself. The speech gives me the right to con- clude that W. H. T. Durrant concurs in the accusation. He then has his attorney ac- cuse me of having some connection with the murder of Blanche Lamont. The pub- lic have noticed that I never accused him of such a crime.”’ Rev. Gibson talked in a sarcastic manne? about Deuprey and when asked what he would do if he were arrested, he said, ironi- ‘ally, that he would want Deuprey o defend him. Were you surprised at his charge against you?” Not at all. His accusation is in harmony with all the actions of the defense from the beginning. You surely think I am very simple if you suppose I have been in ignor- ance of the work going on in the ‘under- ground railway.“ Do you think the defense will spring some surprises?’ “That is a good question, but I don’t care to answer it in public. I.think I can smell „ rat as well as any other person. I hope e rat, for his own sake, will choose the sht moment to come out of the hole. When he appears the cat will not have a bell on its neck.“ “Your handwriting is going to figure in this case. “Yes; so Mr. Dewprey says. He knows what he is talking about. He is just as sure of my handwriting as he was of Dr. Cheney's tegtimony.’’ What is your opinion about the handling t the case?“ n In these days when analogy does duty for Slo it is positively refreshing to know of at least two lawyers who are intelligent | *nough to think the people do not see any rence between a bluff and a fact.“ . t you think they are working faith- ys ‘Yes; they are piling up exceptions that e crushing the righteousness out of their Sense. Every technicality is a curse thrown into the face of the friend they profess to defend. No witness has done so much against W. H. T. Durrant as the actions of his attorneys. I would rather be hanged than saved by such means as Mr. Deuprey and Mr. Dickinson are employing.“ “What do you think of W. H. T. Dur- rant?’’ “Whatever people’s opinions are there are few but think that he deserves a wealth of sympathy, but he is unfortunate enough in the hour of trouble to have as his best friends two men whose their wisdom.“ What the prosecution believes timony of the most vital importance in the Durrant case has at last been obtained from ered in Muninsing Bay and crew of eight lost; Capt.

CHICAGO SKIPPER DROWNED. A Report That the Schooner Elma Has Gone Down With All Her Crew. CHICAGO, Oct. 1.—Many reports of dam- age to property and the loss of a number of lives on the lakes in the storm of Saturday and Sunday reached here last night. Only one local fatality is reported—that of Capt. Andrew Johnson of the schooner John Ra- ber, who was drowned off Dane Park while endeavoring to reach the land to secure a tug to save his vessel. Leaking like a sieve, the sailors worn out with two days’ work at the pumps, with its rotten sails blown to ribbons and its halyards stream- ing in the wind, the old schooner John Raber drove close to shore off Dane Park, Ind., and cast anchor. Andrew Johnson, the owner, wanted to save his vessel—it was built in 1848—and ordered out a small boat, manned by three sailors, and tried to reach shore to secure a,tug. A huge breaker overturned the boat when about mile from shore. Johnson failed to rea@n land and last night his body lay on sands awaiting a Coroner’s jury. The three men stuck to the boat and succeeded in making shore. Capt. Weede stayed by the ship with two sailors. They were rescued by the South Chicago life savers after mid- night after four hours’ hard work. ther boats reported missing or lost are as follows: George W. Naghtin, waterlogged: taken in at St. Joseph; part of deck load gone.

CHICAGO, III., Oct. 1—Two mass-meet- ings of representative citizens, presided over by Mayor Swift and Judge William A. Vincent, were held here last night for the purpose of expressing sympathy with Cuba. Committees from army and navy socie- ties, clubs, commercial and labor organiza- tions and other bodies were in attendance, and the result was the e of a series of resolutions expressing indignation at Spain’s treatment of Cuba, asking the overnment to recognize the Cubans as helligerents, and requesting the organiza- on which arranged the mass-meetings to continue the good work. Gov. Altgeld sent the oe message: “Tt is time that Spanish misrule, Spanish brutality and Spanish outrage should be driven from the American continent. The nations have long asserted the right to in- terfere for the purpose of suppressing any practice that shocks the moral sense of the civilized world,such as cannibalism and the slave trade. Yet the cannibals do not tor- ture their victims and do not indulge in wholesale slaughter, while in Cuba the tor- ture is fiendish and the butchery continues, „We must end these horrors or else talk less about our Christian civilization. Be- sides, when viewed from a geographical and political or a military standpoint, should be ours. Let our country first extend recognition, then a helping hand, and lastly a place in the Union. is done the richest island of the world will soon become the gem of the sea. Senator Cullom said: The people of the United States strongly sympathize with the Cubans struggling to be free from Spanish domination. Our Government should do everything consistent with national honor in their behalf.“ EMMA LEON’S CASE. It Is On for a Second Time in the Crim- inal Court. For the second time Emma Leon was placed on trial Tuesday in the Criminal Court on a charge of murder in the second degree. She was first tried March 1, last, the jury disagreeing. Because the defend- ant was a woman Circuit Attorney Zachritz had changed the charge from murder in the first to murder in the second degree. WITH IMPOSING CEREMONIES.

Satolli, Cardinal Gibbons and Other Church Dignitaries Officiated. — — WASHINGTON, Oct. 1—McMahon Hall, the central building and most beautiful one of what is to constitute a group of buildings at the Catholic Uiversity, was dedicated with imposing ceremonies at 3 o’clock this afternoon. Mgr. Satolli made the opening .address, and was followed by Cardinal Gibbons. The later officiated also in the formal dedication, according to the Catholic ritual. Beside the ag We many of the Archbishops, Bishops and clergymen from various parts of e country par- ticipated 8 Archbishop Corr of New York, Archbishop Williams of Bos- ton, Archbishop Ryan of Philadelphia, Archbishop Ireland of St. Paul, and other distinguished representatives of the church. The dedication of McMahon Hall inaugu- rates the work of the Catholic University in lay branches, in addition to the divinity branch, which it has ucted for the last six years..The new. sc are te embrace a department of 3 with Prof. E.

From to-day on the loss of life and the danger to limb from street car accidents will be greatly diminished provided the street car fenders approved by the Board of Public Improvements do the work they are intended for. The law requiring the street cars of the city to be eauipoet with fenders went into effect this morning and found every line ulpped as provided by law. he Fourth street cable line and the Broadwa were the last lines to be equipped.. Capt. McCulloch of the Broad- way line kept his mechanics busy all night getting his cars equipped with fenders and every car turned out this morning had a life-saver attached to both ends of the grip car, The Fourth street line has a fender on one end only and a few cars were runnſag this morning without fenders, but the Superin- tendent stated to a Post-Dispatch reporter that their absence was not due to neglect, but. because the workmen had not been able ish all the cars. The remaining cars uipped to-night. The Jefferson avenue line with its horse cars is the only line in the city without fenders. When the motive power is changed to electricity it will be properly equipped. TREE SIL TER MEN MEBI. Meetings Decided Upon.

RECORDS BEING EXAMINED. Captains, Sergeants and Patrolmen te Be for a Four Years’ Term Accordiag to Grade. The reorganization of the Police De- partment, which was foretold recently by the Post-Dispatch, has not been allowed to lapse. The fact that it has not come yet ig only indicative of the sweeping changes to be made when the time is ready. The first blow will fall shortly and will serve as the signal for the most wholesale de- capitation in the history of the St. Louis Police Department. Heads are to fail by the hundred, and the ax will sweep from Cap- tain to turnkey. The reorganization of the tore is receiving the undivided attention of the members of the Police Board, and within a few weeks at least will be entire- settled. ; 175 Board of Police Commissioners "= 3 by act of ent are and and au N : One of its vested rised in this sec- be employed to serve t to removal only g by the board, h exclusive 1 — Yaitht lly performe ' thtully ; , otherwise qualified, be preferred by the yoard in making new appointments. Another source of authority has been neglected by the board in not enforcing section: eng ne officers of the police shall be ap- inted by the board for such time as the ard shall determine and be subject to removed by the board for cause. | Under these sections of the law it is under- tood that the board is now engaged in raking a careful and painstaking compar!- on of the grading of the patrolmen and sergeants as made by the captains of the several districts and of the captains as made by the Chief of Police. * Records are being discussed and appraised, and it is understood that the Chief mects with the board almost daily to give his views as to the facts of each case and his personal knowledge of the efficiency or non-efficiency of each member of the force under discussion. It is learned that it will he a week or more before the roll of neariy 1,000 men can be gone over in this manner and no positive action will be taken unti! the work is completed. It is a well-known fact that through the power and influence of political pulls“ and ‘“‘pushes’’ in the past twenty yéars many policemen have been placed on the force and held there in spite the efforts of the Chief of Police, who is a strict and rigid disciplinarian, inadequate discipline has been maintained, owing to undue sym- pathy on the part of the various boards. Outside influence ha been constantly brought to bear, to modify their disposition toward clearing the Department of dead timber, decrepit and disabled veterans, drunkards and men of brutal or bad judg- ment. The present Board, it is believed, is not susceptible to these influences and is determined to clear the force so that St. Louis will have the most efficient body of police in the country. According to rumor, from seventy-five to 125 patrolmen and from ten to twenty ser- geants and probably two or more captains will be weighed in the balance and found wanting—a job, and within a week or two at the most. | The more recently enacted police pension law gives the Board authority to retire policemen disabled in the discharge of duty or veterans who have served twenty or nore years, on half pay of the rank held en retired. This law will probably be esorted to liberally in order to divest the force of some of the inert, though honor- able old veterans, who are no longer active and capable of good police duty. The ser- zeants on the force are nearly all of long ‘ervice and many of them veterans. Some ave served as long as thirty years and lany range in age from 55 to 65 vears of =. . Many of these are marked for retire- nent. BELIEVE IT SOLVENT. “aree State Bank Examiners on Gran- ite State Provident Association. BOSTON, Mass.

No little surprise was occasioned in real estate circles Tuesday by the retirement from the realty business of Adolph L. Steinmeyer, connected with the firm of . Davis Realty Company. For the past years he has been sec- retary and assistant of the firm. Previous to that he was in the jewel- ry business, and will again embark in that line, with the E. Jaccard Jewelry Company. While on the street! Mr. Steinmeyer made some profitable investments. He also made many friends among the agents, who are sorry to see him leave. Mr. Davie said there was nothing unusual about his resignation. He recetved a tempting offer from the jewelry firm and accepted it. Mr. Davis purchased his interest in the realty com- pany. Wainwright’s New Building. The two-story rookery adjoining the Com- mercial Building on Sixth street will be wrecked to make room for a two-story brick and iron structure, to cost $25,000. Work was commenced Tuesday on the im. rovement. The property is owned by Ellis fainwright, who is putting up the money for the new building. It will bé aranged for stores. and offices and, although but two stories in height, will have all the accom- modations found in the costly sky-scrapers. Charles K.

Barr's big store is still in holiday dress, the occasion being the celebration of the forty-sixth anniversary of the establish- ment of the business. Owing to the fact that an appreciative public may have an opportunity to enjoy the gorgeous display of beautiful things brought from all parts of the world, the celebration will be con- tinued until Wednesday night. The aisles are profusely decorated with palms and flowers which add to the attractiveness of the displays.

In the silk department is found a superb display of rich fabrics in the most artistic patterns. Nothing could be more exquisite in color. ing and design than the rich brocades. and pompadour silks displayed both in light and dark effects, ranging from less than a dollar to $18 a yard. In this department may also be found chiffons, and dainty mousseline de soies, for the debutantes. In wool or silk-and wool fabries there are many novelties, rough effects predominat- ing.

HIS. DUTY IS NOW.-ENDED. Discussion of the Case by City Coun- sslor Marshall and Attorneys Johnsen and Eggers. 3 —— 7 Tuesday morning Dr. Starklaff. on the ad- vice of City Counselor arshall, sent As- sistant Prosecuting Attorney Johnson and City Attorney Clover copies of the trans- cript of the evidence taken before him Sun- sores 5 regard to the corpse traffic of the ‘emale Hospital. With the transcripts he sent a letter to each requesting an invest!- gation of the statutes with a view to as- certaining whether Richard Kerley could be prosecuted under. the criminal code. If pos- sible, Dr. Starkloff will secure warrants at once, as he fegards the testimony taken before him as fully corroborating the state- ments of Maggie Dalton. When the transcripts reached Mr. John- son he had a stack of law books on his desk and was busily engaged in searching for some clause or section under which he could swear out a warrant against Dick Kerley. Before the transcript reached him; Mr. Johnson said: 80 far I have found noth- ing which would make young Kerley liable to punishment. Section 3842 provides a punishment for stealing bodies from graves, but there is nothing covering the taking of bodies from hospitals. Of course, after I have looked over the transcript I may find some evidence against Kerley which would warrant proseguting him for a fel- ony.”’ City Attorney Clover is still away from St. Louis. Assistaht City Attorney Exegers stated to a PosDispatch reporter that although the crintes committed at the Fe- male Hospital can be punished under the city ordinance punishing the shipment of a body from the city without the permit, that punishment would be insufficient. It con- Sists of a fine of from $250 to $500, which means but six months in the Work-house. The proper method of procedure, Mr. Eg- gers thought, would be under section 6886 of the Revised Statutes prescribing the method of trafficking in dead bodies, and placing medical colleges and others engaged in it under bond to observe the regulations. Any traffic in bodies by persons other than those mentioned in the statute is punishable by a fine of not less than $100, which may mean $1,000, and one year in the Work- house. The yo prepared by Health Commissioner Starkloff has not yet reached the City Attorney’s office. City Counselor Marshall said: “I have not prepared a formal opinion. I have not read the testimony, because I deemed it un- necessary. There is a State law which makes body-snatching a felony punishable by a sentence of from two to ten years in the Ps a panacea On the other hand, a City ordinance makes it a misdemeanor to ship bodies out of the city without a permit, unishable by a fine of or six months mprisonment or both. If either of these laws have been violated it is the duty of the State or city officers to prosecute the guilty parties. It is for them to pass on the evidence to see if a case can be made. I therefore advised Dr. Starkloff to send officially copies of the ordinance to the As- sistant Prosecuting Attorney of the Court of Criminal Correction and to the City At- torney, and call their attention to the State law and city ordinance referred to. If any one implicated was a city official the duty of the Health Commissioner would be plain, but as only ex-officials are in- volved, they can merely be proceeded against as citizens. I have advised Dr. Starkloff that, having called the attention of the proper officials to the facts, his duty as Health Commissioner is ended. The developments in the potters’ field horror Monday were the discoveries that another grave contained nothing but sticks of wood; that some one had a tamper- ing with the graves by changing the grave numbers so as to baffle investigation as much as possible, and that there is a stat- ute under which traffic in dead bodies is made a felony punishable by from two to ten years in the penitentiary. Health Commissioner Starkloff concluded yesterday morning that it was useless to open any more graves since the results ob- tained on Saturday conclusively proved the charges made by Maggie Dalton. But Chief Clerk Moskup of the Poor-house kept it up, and found that the coffin supposed to con- tain the body of Melvina Jones, who died Jan. 20, 1895, contained only two sticks of wood. It was in the course of the search for this body that Moskup discovered that some one had been tampering with the grave numbers. Thus the Melvina Jones grave, which should have been numbered 1,985 according to the records, was num- bered 1,216. he object was clear. If the grave marked 1,585 had been opened it would have been found to contain a body which would. have passed for 2 of Melvins Jones. But as the number 1,216 was not in line with the surrounding graves, Moskup discovered the attempted substitution, and was not misied. It was thought at first that Dick Kerle if arrested would only be charged wit violating the ordinance prohibiting the re- moval of bodies from the State without a permit, and conviction under that was deemed doubtful, as the proof might not be forthcoming. But sec. 883, Revised Stat- utes, provides that any person found to be engaged in the sale of deafi bodies shall on conviction be deemed guilty of a felony and be imprisoned in the penitentiary not less than two nor more than ten years. Sec. 3,842 makes the penalty of grave rob- bing the same as above. Whether steal- ing the body before it reached the grave can be construed into grave robbing is a matter for judicial determination. HIS MOTHER'S APPEAL © Has Saved Clyde Mattox From the Gal- lowsin Kansas. WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 1.—The President has commuted to imprisonment for lite the death sentence imposed upon Clyde Mattox of Kansas, who was to have hanged on the llth inst. This is the case in which the prisoner’s mother, after appealing personally to the President, secured a letter assuring her that the death sentence would not be carried out. Mattox: was convicted of killing an old colored man, John Mullen, who was seeking to protect two colored girls. He was con- victed and sentenced to be hanged in 1891, — a new trial from the United States upreme Court and, after two more trials, was “enn convicted and resentenced to death March 23, 1894. . was 28 As a last resort case, remarkable for the number of the man was sentenced to death, an apncel was made to the President, wae. . long consideration, has just 2 the sentence, as above stated.

There appéars to be almost an epidemic of St. Vitus’ dance among children. The dis- ease comes directly from weak nerves and an irritated condition of the nerve centers. Its approach is shown by the nerves be- coming weak, the child is pale, nervous, restless, irritable, does not sleep well at night, but tosses restlessly, talks in sleep, grits its teeth, and has irregular appetite. | There will de a twitching of the eyelids, the hand, the arm, the leg, or portion of the body, which spasmodic movements will grad- ually increase until the child is more or less helpless. It is a very serious disease and should never be allowed to run, as the most serious consequences ensue in the utter wreck of the nerous system. it mus? be cured at once. The cure of tittle Luke, son of L. C. Reed, of Hegewisch, III., is wonderful and should be known to the parents of every nervous child or sufferer from St. Vitus’ dance. It affords me great pleasure, gays Mr. Reed, to state that my son has been cured of St. Vitus’ dance by the use of Dr.Greene’s Nervura blood and nerve remedy. it is the best medicine in the world. My little son had scarlet fever, and was sick for about two years after he got over the fever. i “LITTLE LUKE b. REED. | „He was very nervous, and got so bad still. employed a physician, but he got worse all the time. A friend advised me to try Dr. Greene’s Nervura blood and nerve remedy. 1 got one bottle of the Nervura, and before he had taken half of it he began to improve, vnd when he had one bottle taken the St. Vitus’ dance was gone. it is wonderful the way this medicine worked.’’ Watch your children, and if you detect any of the above symptoms, any weakness of the nerves, pale and sallow condition of the skin, loss of appetite, and observe the child growing thin, sharp featured and puny, give it immediately the only sure cure for this distressing nervous disease, recognized by physicians, Dr. Greene’s Nervura blood and nerve remedy. it will cure St. Vitus’ dance, give the child strong nerves, good di- gestion, pure blood, and make it grow sturdy and strong. It is not a patent medicine, but the pre- scription of the most successful living spe- cialist in curing nertvéus and chronic dis- eases, Dr. Greene, of 35 West 14th~ st., New York City. He has the largest prac- tice in the world, and his grand medical dis- covery is the result of his vast experience. The great reputation of Dr. Greene is | guarantee that*his medicine will cure, and the fact that he canbe consulted by anyone at any time, free of charge, personally or by letter, gives absolute assurance of the bene- ficial action of this wonderful medicine.

L1—About half the male population of this city as- sembled at the Aransas Pass depot long be- fore the arrival of Fitzsimmons’ train last night. Fitzsimmons and his party were met by a committee of representative men and escorted to the Constantinople Hotel, where elaborate preparations had n made for their entertainment. A band filled the cor- ridors of the hotel with music while the party partook of supper. Fitzsimmons and party retired quite early owing to their long and tedious trip. The pugilist, how- ever, is in splendid physical condition and is sanguine of success, . Fitzsimmons will reside in a two-story ten-room brick cottage surrounded by twen- ty-five acres of prairie land. About three minutes’ walk from the cottage are Fitz- simmon’s training quarters. GOSSIP FOR TURFITES. Jockey Pratt Met His Death on the First Day of Foster’s Track. There was only one thing that marréd the opening of the new track at Sportsman’s Park Saturday, but that was a serious acci- dent that cost Jockey C. Pratt and a horse their lives. In the third race Col. Wheatley fell and Little George and Little Chris fell over him. Pratt had the mount on Little Chris and when the dust cleared away he failed to rise with the others, who went down. Then was given an exhibition of brutality that is seldom exceeded. Seeing the prostrate boy on the track a spectator rushed out and grabbed him by the leg and dragged him across the track as though he were a dog. Another spectator helped him in the task by pulling on Pratt’s arm, and in that fashion they got him out of the way of the other horses, which were continui the race. Then more humane people pick up the dying jockey and took him into the dressing room. His skull was fractured and he died in the ambulance on the way to the hospital. „ The accident at Sportsman’s Park, while it was not due entirely to the bad turn, — emphasizes the fact that the track will have to be altered to avoid such affairs in the future. The turn is a very sharp one and is just before the finish when the horses are going at their top speed. of the game the animals should be given as straight a course as possible, and while it is not possible to have a lo stretch at Sportsman’s Park, the trouble could be tly obviated by extending the own further on the east side, so paddock would be taken in. This would straighten out the stretch to a considerable extent. 1 5 i All the talk about springi the League rules on Von der Ahe for ‘allowing pool- selling on his grounds has subsided, and Chris was smiling and happy at the openi of the new track in his par Six thousan people paid their way into the grounds and the seven books could not handle all their ev money. The prediction of many that the horse which got off in front would finish in that place was not verified, and several pretty wind-ups were had. Starter Brown was exceedingly careful to give no horse the best of it and would not let them off Hing will be . t'few days, b thet r a few da that the crowding will | e avoided. si q * Arrangements have been made to race meeting at the Flatbush, IL. they beginning Oct. 5, the same date that the Jockey Club will begin its autumn meet- ing at Morris Park.

The exciting finish in the National League, which was promised several weeks ago, did not materialize and beyond a slight tremor when New York defeated Baltimore, the fang saw last year’s c pions slide into first place this season ease. A month ago it looked as though the champions, Cleveland, Philadelphia and Chi would finish neck and neck, but the Phillies and Colts gradually fell off and Baltimore con- tinued its almost. uninterrupted series of successes with the Spiders as the only dan- gerous rivals. The rest of Pat Tebeau's men for a week, with Baltimore winning regularly, clinched the victory for the Ori- oles, and they ended three games each way to the good. se The following table shows the games won and lost by clubs by series: 3 — — one > — oe ooo 64/84/92 nelly. but it e rooklyns, is taken part y bird contests on almost ery ground in the Nun 2 He is an ac- tive member the Blue Grass Gun Club of abe are tvs Y., and at a recent tourna- ment of that organization he captured the maney on three of the six events, Gas- ht has an idea that his club’s grounds are the hardest in America to make a good score on, and he is out with an offer of $10 to any man who can break 90 out of 100 clay * . of | : were blessed in Baltimo th — _ —_----- uv:ò — DDr * rr rn Broadway and Morgan Street. rr Never Were Offer - ings So Rich and Rare.
