NEW YORK, Jan. 2%.—A local paper has the following cable dispatch from London: All over Lendon to-day sandwich men paraded with the sign, “Grover Cleveland, President of the United States,“ to adver- tise the fact that Mme. Tussaud had added the President to the collection of figures in wax. Mme. Tussaud’s is such a place as the New York Eden Musee, but it is very old. It contains two other Presidents Washington and Lincoln, but Cleveland is the first one to be shown during life, and the first one to be advertised in the streets by sandwich men. It may seem a trifie to mention this, but it is really a part of the great revolu- tion, whereby, what the newspapers call the shameful ignorance of England with regard to the United States in the past is changing to an intimate acquaintance and with his mother. tools «as found in his room, ‘He is rinting Co. at Third and Vine streets.

Short dark hair, parted in the midle, dark brow eyes, a retrousse nose and a well-shap head makes her look almost pretty, but her hands, dirty and with the fingers short and stumpy, are not attractive. According to her story the girl met Kelly three years ago, but did not “keep com- pany’ with him until about six months ago, shortly after her mother died.

In reference to the country circulation of the Post-Dispatch which had been carried on at a loss to the paper, your Committee noted particularly what effect the increase in price, which took place om January Ist, would have on its circulation, but it was not possible, at the time of rendering report, for your committee to determine this precisely. To date the percent- age of loss has not been more than twenty per cent, and we have reason to believe that the first loss will be the greatest, especially inasmuch as youn canvassers in the country were withdrawn during the holidays, and have just resumed work. We have examined the letters of your Country Agents and find that by far the largest percentage of them are well pleased with the change, and will push the paper more vigorously than before. There has been no loss of circulation in the city, however. On the con- trary, the circulation in the city has steadily increased during the past month and during the past two months.

Va., Jan. 28.—Alexan- der Jones, a negro desperado, boarded a passenger train at Keystone last night. He was under the influence of whisky and very quarrelsome. Conductor McCullough came through the cars, and, after demanding fare from Jones, advised him to be quiet. The negro became much incensed, and when an attempt was made to eject him he pulled two revolvers and began firing promiscu- ously through the train, which was crowded with passengers. He emptied both revolv- ers and/attempted to reload, but was over- powered by the train men. When the smoke had cleared away and the excitement had abated it was discover- ed that W. H. Strother, postmaster at Elk- horn, was shot through the abdomen. The wound resulted in almost instant death. Conductor McCullough was shot in the side, hut not seriously injured, and Peter Rice, colored, was shot through the right and pro fa injured. Jones was incarcerated in the Elkhorn jail to await the arrival of a train by which to convey him to Hunti for safe-keep- ing. The train arrived at 2 a. m., and ef- ficers and prisoner boarded it without mo- lestation. Meanwhile a mob had been or nized at Welch, fifteen mi west 1 and marched * tlon one — west of W ‘The train was . 100 men, and at the hes officers to release. 3 the cours-s of the two ating Ware oe tar] Mr. R ' Notwithstanding all reports from the East and Washington that in Missouri the mountains shout, the valleys _— the prairies flush and all the little do clap their hands for | is that there ia very little discussion of presidential candidates among the Demo- crats of this State. 1 The subject of the greatest concern to groups of representative Democrats where- party so as to save Missouri from Filley; and the subject next in im ce is the selection of such a del on to the Na- tional Convention as will certain to make Missouri’s voice heard and respected.

It is ex- pected that he will ve the support of enator Cullom's friends, owing to his manly course in the contest of last winter, when Cullom was elected. Mr. Mason would like to have the State Convention formally nom- inate him; and he would like to have an ex- pression from the State Committee to-mor- row favoring the nomination of a Senator. “I favor a State Convention nomination,” said Mr. Mason. “I believe that brings the office closer to the people.

Special to The Post-Dispatch. FRANKFORT, Ky., Jan. . -A surprising and sensational statement has been made to the Blackburn leaders by Mr. Edrington, the Populist, who is the deskmate and réom- | mate of Mr. Poor. Edrington stated that if during the preceding ballots for Senator the Democrats had been united on Blackburn he would himself have deserted the Repub licans and voted for Blackburn, if his vote alone was required to elect him. When Mr. Poor was asked in regard to this state- ment by your correspondent he refused to answer whether or not his friend Edrington had correctly stated his position. “You eA say,“ he added, however, that I am a free man and I am bound to no candi- date.“ The Democrats now believe they will be able to bring Poor over to Blackburn, which may result, when the successor of Wilson. arrives, in Blackburn's election. provided the other Democrats can be united upon him. The sixth ballot of the joint session of the Legislature was taken to-day. There was | the same interested crowd present when the roll was called. A call of the roll showed 132 members present and voting. The fol- lowing pairs were announced: Gross (Dem.) with Jones (Rep), Gilliam (Rep.) with Swin- ford (Dem.).

Hagaman, manager of Faust’s restaurant, has fractured the United States postal laws and is sorry for it. He was arrested yesterday on a warfrant sworn out by Post-Office Inspector mas for sending a dunning postal card through the all. Mrs. George Abel, 249 Michigan av- nue, was the recipient of the card and made the complaint. “I did not know that I was violating the law,” said Mr. Hagaman Tuesday,’ and if I have must take the consequences. These Abels used to live in a house of mine at 2906 Arsenal street, and went away owing me quite a sum for rent. That was nearly a year „ and the other day I wrote to Mrs. Abel telling her that I had not for- gotten her debt, and threatening to ad- vertise it for sale. It seems that in send- ing this on a postal card I violated the law. What I threatened to do was perfectly le- gal, and I don’t know but that the Grand- ury may take this view of it.“ At 2949 Michigan avenue a woman an- swered the bell and said that she was Mrs. Abel. She positively asserted that she did not know Mr. Hagaman and never saw him in her life. She denied „ We any money. The neighbors about street say that Mrs. Abel must have tem- porarily lost her memory on some points. Bidders for New Bonds.

C., Jan. 28.—Senator Gorman’s plan to settle the financial diffi- culties of the United States is to issue gold bonds in sufficient number and amount to retire the greenbacks and then to adopt free coinage of silver. This proposition is far more drastic than that of Senator Faulk- ners. His is to issue gold bonds to retire the greenbacks and then to issue in their stead silver certificates. Of course these pro itions are made for the purpose of enabling the Democrats to get together on the money. question. It is not likely that any such legislation’ as is embraced in either proposition can become law as long as Mr. Cleveland is President. It is ex- tremely doubtful if either could pass Con- ena tor Jones of Arkansas, who has the House bill, as changed to a free coin- age measure by the substitute adopted by the Committee on Finance, in charge, ex- ects to reach a vote this week. o time as yet been set for taking the vote, but there will be no attempt to filibuster to pre- vent it. It is believed that it will pass the Senate, but what the majority will be is a matter of conjecture. It is not thought that it will be overwhelming even with the addition of the Utah Senators, who have taken their seats. The House will not concur in the substi- tute, so that a conference between the two houses will be a necessity. It is in this con- ference that one or other of the measures perenne by Gorman and Faulkner will be rought forward. REGRETFUL REPUBLICANS. They Realize Their Rash Haste in Trying to Run the Senate.

Wall of DuQuoin, III., Tuesday morning filed. his decision in the case of the City of East St. Louis vs, ex-City Treasurer Alexander Flannigan. The decision was read in the Circuit Court- room at Belleville and was in the nature of a decided victory for Flannigan. — Alexander Flannigan was City Treasurer of East St. Louis from April, 1886, to April, 1887, and when during that term, known as the dark days, he went out of office at the inception of the Stephens regime, he left a surplus in the Treasury of exactly 7 cents. he incoming administration was antagonistic to the old one and in a mood to amine closely into all the official acts of their 11 in office, more par- Ucularly if those acts had to do with finance.

As long as there was any money in the treasury no claim went unpaid. If one fund was ex- hausted, the nec amount was taken from another. Sometimes this was a war- roperly drawn and approvéd, mes it was on the request of a cau- cus of four or five Aldermen who had to have the claims of their friends cole in this manner and afterward approve the ir- regular action in the Council meeting.

The expected verdict was found by the Coroner’s jury in the McLure building inquest. Although the structure was sus- pected of weakness and was proven un- safe by a terible catastrophe, the respon- sibility was fixed upon no one.“ “Don’t let it occur again,” is the sub- Stance of the Coroner’s verdict, The enactment and enforcement of laws pro- viding for a thorough system of inspec- tion, and including the filing of plats of each building available for the Fire De- partnfent, are recommended. This is the least result that the catas- trophe and the investigation can bring about. If no one ig to be punished when an unsafe building collapses, causing the loss of precious lives, it is all the more necessary that stringent preventive measures be adopted. Mr. Festus J. Wade is quoted as saying that if the MeLure building was pro- nounced unsafe one-third of old St. Louis would be condemned. If this is true the prompt inspection of all old buildings is a necessity. The risks of existing condi- tions are appalling. * A BULLY BROUGHT TO TERIS. A newspaper which has violently crit- cised the President’s Venezuelan message and hag bitterly opposed the application of the Monroe doctrine to the Venezue- lan controversy remarks: ‘Fortunately, all points of international dignity are now likely to be settled in a dignified and business-like way between England and Venezuela without waiting the re- gult of our investigation.” * t why? If the United States had supinely ac- epted Great Britain’s snub, had “Tailed assert the Monroe doctrine and its ication to the Venezuelan dispute, i had let Great Britain have her own y in that matter and in the interpreta- n of the Monroe doctrine, would the nezuelan dispute be on the road to ttlement “in a dignified and business- ke way?” Would it not have been settled a the British way at the mussles of Zritish guns? Was it not the vigorous assertion of sound American policy, regardless of, consequences, which brought Great Brit- ain to her senses and, teaching her the temper of the American people, forced her to choose between coming to a just ‘ 2 . * * 1 e 1 ~~ n ’ : f 3 + ok a ee 2 8 ; 2 pee 1 2 : N 1 1 3 a i 8 a 4 * 1 — ee: Wen n 8 A 7 3 7 pe ut | * ae foolish 8 * 9 B bas 3 1 4 *. * 1 2 — 52 N f S * * 4 $ . * 2 Foy . : > Gi i 7 Lie 1 2 4 * . re 2 2 3 4 1 Me 8 = „ 3 . * — Be he. » wd N 7 a 1 z N : ‘ 4 * > * 7 .

Missouri Democrats on questions ot tional policy, and especially upon money question, It is probable that 8 platform adopted by the Pertle Springs Convention will be reaffirmed.

Simply, to reaffirm it will demonstrate that, in spite ot Administration treachery, Missourt} Democrats have not changed their views: a particle. . More important even than the plat- form is the selection of delegates, and in making these selections the voters would do well to make their preferences clearly known in advance.

The killing of young Atwater by Web- ster Groves footpads has brought out an interesting discussion on the subject of how to act when attacked by robbers. Chiefs Harrigan and Desmond and Capt. O’Malley of the Police Department. insist that the best course when attacked by footpads is to resist even if unarmed, They say that not only is it unmarily to yield up your property to a highway- man without a fight, but tht there is actually little more risk in resistance than in non-resistance, because footpads are in the main cowards/ On the other Hand, A reformed high- sstrenuous>~ opposes the police declareg nat the citizens who liwayra® are fools. He asserts Wayuwven as a rule are men of | dest brute courage, that they not Ay have the advantage of their victims ‘but are practically forced to kill or injure if resisted. representifig the views of the average citizen, because both are professional. It is manifestly to the interest of the police to have the courage of the public screwed up to the point of resistance, because resistance is likely to reduce the number of highwaymen. On the con- highwaymen to have the courage of cit- izens ooze out in the presence of high- waymen. But there can be no doubt that gen- eral public opinion sustains and ap- plauds resistance as a manly proceeding. All agree that young Atwater displayed the highest courage. But the grounds upon which his course is approved are purely sentimental. They are the same as those upon which a courageous act, no matter how irrational or foolish it may be, is applauded. But from the standpoint of cold reason it cannot be justified, be- cause to set up a few valuables as worth the risking of life is absurd. In the last analysis the question of re- sistance or non-resistance is the question of the relative strength of pride or dis- cretion in the man called upon to decide which course he will take. But deep down in the human heart there is a re- pugnance to submitting to the dictation or abuse of others, Although often di- verted to the support of false standards of honor the sentiment is the founda- tion of the highest personal and civic virtue. Of Course, when the defense of the weak and dependent is involved those who fail to meet the standard of courage and manliness are despised, but when @nly personal property and rights are endangered men honor those who, like young Atwater, stand upon their manhood at the risk of life. | RY 33 B.

In cities and villages, however, laws are gen- erally made forbidding vehicles. to traverse sidewalks.

Queen Victoria has elevated a little 16- months’ old girl to the rank of a peeress of the realm. It is probably the first occasion that a coronet has been conferred upon a girl of such tender age and not a member of the reigning house, The new peeress of the realm is the tiny daughter of the late Lord Beaumont, and in future she will be known as the Baroness Beaumont. Strictly speak- ing and to use the herald@ic phrasedlogy, the peerage conferred upon her is not a new one, but is that of her father, and has been ‘‘called out of abeyance.” But inasmuch as this “calling out of abeyance” is solely a matter of the pleasure of the Queen, the honor just announced in the Gazette may be regarded as a new creation.

It has been found in all large cities where the precinct plan has been adopted a great increase has been shown in the registra- tion. “In Chicago, however,“ said Election Com- “missioner Saunders, the plan has not worked so well as it has in New York. The law in operation in the former city is very similar to the one we have here, but they have found it difficult to divide the city up into precincts of 300 voters. They have pre- cincts there, 1 am told, with 4,000 voters, and they seem not to have overcome the difficul “We do not look for any great difficulties here, and our belief is that we will make a vers ® fair division in a reasonable short space me.’ There is a feelin that the registration wll be affected to quite an extent by the fact that under the new law all naturalized voters will be compelled to show papers. This has not been required in the past. Now it is con- ceded that there are thousands of citizens of this city of foreign birth who have been voting for years without naturalization papers. They had them years ago, but allow- ed them to get lost or destroyed. In order to register they will have to secure attested copies or certificates that the records have been lost. This will lead to no end of trouble and confusion and it ig estimated that 5,000 “A 6,000 voters will be practically disfran- chised. Chai-man Higgins of the Election Com- mission is greatly pleased with the outlook | for the operation of the new law and gives it as his opinion that it will put the city in the hands of the Democrats. “At least 60,000 voters, he said, have been staying away from the polls, and I estimate that fully 70 per cent of them are Democrats. We ought to be able under the new law to get most of them out, and that would mean that we could carry the city by 10,000 at the coming election. I do not ¢hink that we will suffer as much in St. Louis by the falling off in the natural- ized vote as the Republicans will. All in all I see a good chance for us at the next election to completely change the political _ecomplexion of St. Louis.” WHOLESALE GROCERS.

THE PEABODY TRIAL Not Theught That the Prosecution Made Out a Case. Judge Peabody's trial, which was begun before Mayor Walbridge Friday afternoon, was continued Tuesday. The prosecution closed its case with the testimony. of the two detectives who were employed by the Civic Federation and by submitting in evi- dence the records of the First District Po- Eee Court, while the defense summoned a lot of witnesses to show that the court under Peabody has been conducted as it was under his predecessors. The general impression was that the pros- failed to make out a case, in that they failed entirely to connect the Judge with the release of Lucas, who was arrested for carrying concealed w s.

Even the people.who believe him guilty say that nothing has been proven upon which the Mayor could act. Eugene Hansman was the first witness called Tuesday afternoon. He testified that he had a number of checks indorsed by W. P. Bentley of the firm of Bentley & Peabody since May last. It was sought to prove by this that the Judge was still doing a law busiaess, but Hansman knocked the pins os under the attorneys for the prosecu- 3 ‘an Peabody & Bentley for years,“ he sai “and after the former was ap- — Judge I made out a ch rm’s name.

The methods of Mr. John Thomas Brady are invariably unique. Therefore, the police were not surprised when William Christo- pher complained Tuesday that Mr. Brady did steal, take and carry away one lunch stand and the contents thereof, from the corner of Twenty-first and Chestnut streets, and did set up the said lunch stand at the corner of Twenty-secon and Chestnut streets and announce toa hungry public that he was the sole 2 ght and manager of the caravansary, against the peace and dignity of the State. hristopher said that after he locked the folding doors of his stand Saturday night Brady employed two negroes to help him move the stand to the next corner. hen he located his al fresco restaurant Brady was in possession and was feedig the hun- oa in possession and was feeding the hun- with sang froid and ham and eggs. . demanded his stand, but Brady declined to yield possession and insisted that he bought it from a negro.

Moses, the advertisement and business writer of 502 Third street, Brooklyn, relates that he recently had occasion to consult Dr. J. S. Carreau, a well-known physician of 18 West Twenty-first street, New York City, for a stomach trouble which was pronounced a type of dyspepsia. After consultation, writes Mr. Moses, the Doctor gave me a prescription, and | was somewhat surprised to note that the formula was nearly identical with that of Ripans Tabules, for which | had, on more than one occasion, prepared advertising matter. I had Dr. Carreau’s prescription filled, and it proved satisfactory, giving quick relief. A week later, when ! had taken all the medicine, I again called on the Doctor and mentioned the similarity of his prescription and the proprietary remedy spoken of, showing him both the remedy itself and the formula. The Doctor was at first somewhat inclined to criticise what he called patent medicines, but appeared to be surprised when he noted to wh extent his own prescription conformed to the formula I showed him. it was practically the same. After a short time devoted to noting the careful manner in which the proprietary medicine was prepared, he wound up by prescribing it for my case. Of course | had to pay him for telling me to do this, but it was worth the cost to havé such high professionai assurance that the advertised article was, in fact, the scientific formula that it purported to be. I might have taken the proprietary medicine in the beginning and saved the Doctor's fee, but I think the confidence I have acquired in the efficacy of the remedy, through the Doctor's indorsement of it, is well worth the fee. ipans Tabules are sold druggists, or L (50 cents a text ig aon te Se Oa Sale and 2 to 3 p. m.

Bpecial Correspondence of the Post-Dispatch. SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., Jan. 22.—Desplie the rainy weather, the fields have been large at both tracks, in a number of in- stances the races being divided, and spec- ulation has been extremely brisk. Sixteen, has been the smallest number of books to weigh in at any time. Barney Schreiber has at last struck a winning gait, Old Braw Scot has rounded to and is winning right along. Barney made a magnificent civan-up on -him the other day when he beat Nephew out a head in a hot finish. Nepnew was an odijs-on favorite and carried the talent’s money (with the exception of Barney's ani Riley Grannan’s, who made a sweet killing over the race, winning between them no less then $15,000). Braw Scot was two lengtns behind the favorite turning into me stretch and it was only by a piece of superb riding on the part of Jerry Chorn that the old gray landed the purse. Barney, by the way, in- tends to have a we3dinxy-our sale and will open the spring campaign with a small, but select stable. ~ J. W. Brooks, formerly starter at East St. Louis, is officiating here as clerk of the scales at Ingleside, and is more than pleased with the racing outlook. Macfarlane, who is well known in St. Louis turf circles, has been putting flour in the barrel’ since coming to the coast, and is several thou- sand ahead of the game. Eddie Gaines and Leo and Sam Mayer dropped in recently from New Orleans. They all say the game is 100 per cent better here than at the South- ern city. Dannie Hudson of East St. Louis fame, is as robust as ever. Dannie is much taken with the menu served here and says he never ate spring lamb and new peas and potatoes in His Jife so early in season elsewhere. Joe Harvey, Lee Denmire's brother-in- law, owns the good racing filly Wheel of Fortune,” and won in the neighbor- hood of $10,000 over her victory the other day. Dan Honig and his brother-in-law Billy Henry, are doing extremely well, they are winning their share of the races and as both are game betters they are getting the coin. Sheppard and Davis started out large winners when they first began to book here,but the big bettors are reported to have caught them for a barrel of money during the past week. They still continue book- ing, however. Capt. Rees and Joe Murphy are the judges at Ingleside. Joe thinks the new track the reatest in the land, and with good reason. t rained in torrents on Friday night last, and looked as if there would be no racing on the following day. When the public got to the track, however, on Saturday morning they were surprised to see but little signs of mud, the drainage being so perfect that the track was a couple of seconds better than the day before. The play starts in Beate at the Bay District track on Thurs- ay. CREEDON FINISHED SMITH. The Was English Heavy-weight Knocked Out in a Hurry. Dah Creedon, the clever Australian mid- Gleweight, knocked out Jem Smith, the English heavyweight, in the second round of their fight before the National Sporting Club of London last night. The second round only lasted twenty seconds, Creedon finishing Smith with @right hand swing on the mark. Creedon (weighed 162 pounds, while Smith scaled in at 180 pounds. Creedon had the best of the fight in the first round and clearly demonstrated his superiority over Smith, who seems to be the poorest excuse for a champion ever fur- Mished by England. Lew Phelan, who bandied Creedon for Col. J. D. Hopkins when Dan defeated Herman Bernau and Billy McCarthy at Galveston, was offering all kinds of odds on Creedon against Smith At the race track Monday. He found few takers, however. Creedons’ decisive victory last night will ve him great prestige in England. Frank lavin and Peter Jackson are the best men — over there, but Creedon will hardly care to tackle either of them. Unless Tom Trace ets a match the chances dre that Dan — im will soon return fo America.

Riso Is Doomed to Death and Cepero’s Life Is Threatened. KEY WEST, Fla., Jan. 2%.—The bitter feeling of the Spaniards towards Americans is increasing. Henry Riso, claiming to be a naturalized citizen of the United States, was recently arrested as a political sus- pect and transported to Centa, the Spanish penal settlement in Africa, where he will surely die, as cholera is raging there EI Commercio” in editorial says: “Marin is too tender wi these Yankees. Every one of them at all implicated in the revolution should be summarily dealt with. But for American money and American sympathy there would be no revolution, and the Yankees have no right to expect mercy from Spain, As for Cepero, American cit- izen though he be, he has aided the insur- gents, and should have been shot as soon as taken.“ ) SHIPPING MONEY TO NEW YORK. An Intimation From Havana That , Spain Will Lose Cuba. HAVANA, Jan. 23.—Financiers in Havana are evidently fearful about the outcome of the revolution, for they are shipping large sums of silver and gold by every steamer that leaves for New York. Upmann & Co., who represent the Rothschilds, are —— the lead in these shipments. It is underst that Upmann & Co. have informed their depositors that money is no longer safe in Havana. It is reported that Upmann & Co. are acting under orders from the Roths- childs, who have declined the new that Cuba is joan on the ple ag oy Madrid Government. THE WORLD'S PEACE.

Special to The Post-Dispatch. : NEW YORK, Jan. 2%.—Fifty boys, pupils of the East Orange (N. J.) High School, are doing penance, self-convicted of snow- balling, and many of their chicken-hearted fellows are also being punished for allow- ing themselves to be prevented from at- tending school by the snowball fusillade of the fifty. It was last Tuesday that the snow was right for snowballing and fifty of the boys during the noon recess made a lot of mis- siles and lay in walt for those who had gone home for luncheon and were returning. The bombardment was fierce and it was long after the hour when all were in their seats. : The fifty were then notified that they must remain after hours and see“ the principal] and they appointed four of their number to plead for them. The principal, on his part, named four boys from the senior class to act as their judges. This committee, after considering the matter, sentenced the fifty to a reprimand from Mr. Davey and ten hours’ detention after school hours, the ten hours to be served out one hour at a time. The commit- tee further sentenced those who had been too much afraid to go to the school in the face of the shower of snowballs to serve two hours. The sentences are being served. ; SUPREME COURT OFINIONS. Division No. 1 Passes on. Beveral Cases and Motions.

Stiepel, with 000 insurance on his life and later thrdugh her laisonj Th with the now missing. insurance agent, Harry Armitage, and the efforts of the la was about both of the suspicion of crimg, to equal the weird tale of a novelist or the imagination of a melodramatic pla Mrs. Stiepel was as woman with a fairly n practicing. physic on 0 during the latter years of his life had a large income. Instead of saving it he in- vested a goodly portion of his yearly income in life insurance, carrying at the time of his death policies to the amount of $71,000, On the afternoon of Nov. 21, 1890, Dr. Stiepel left his house in a buggy to make his usual rounds among hig —, While driving by the corner of Jefferson and La- fayette avenues he was mysteriously fired upon by someone * in ambush. Two bullets from a small Filobert rifle struck him in the right temple, but did no serious amage. The doctor drove himself to the City Hos- pital, where the bullets were extracted. He then went home and remained in bed a few days, expecting to be about shortly, The attempted assassination created a sensa- tion, but developments later increased the mystery and led to no end of gossip. Despite the trifling nature of the wounds, the doctor grew worse. He became feverish and had symptoms entirely out of keep- ing with apparent causes, so that when his death cane on Nov. 30 the suspicion grew that he had been tampered with after the shooting. The Coroner did nothing until after the funeral, when the clamor of the newspapers forced him to disinter the body. An examination of the dead man's stom- ach was made and traces of arsenical poi- soning were discovered, The inquest lasted fourteen days and the Coroner’s jury gave in the verdict that death was due to the effects of the poison, but the guilt was never fastened upon anyone. In a month or. go talk died out and the affair would have been forgotten by the public but for the story of illicit love with the doctor’s widow as the central figure, which came out a little more than à year ago, In the latter.part. of .November, 1891, the St. Louis newspapers chronicled the dis- appearance of Harry Armitage, manager at that time of the Aetna Loan Co. He had drawn $8,000 out of the bank here one af- ternoon and fallen off the face of the earth. The whole thing was apparently planned, as a few days before this he had sent his bride of six months to Chicago, telling her to fur- nish a flat and await his coming. When he did not show up in Chicago Mrs. Armitage, with proper oritely alarm, hur- ried back to St. Louis and laid the usual suspicions of foul play before the police. She also came to the Post-Dispatch. office and told her story and thereby there devel- oped the remarkable unraveling of the mys- tery. j . Armitage knew there was something back of the disappearance, and she sus- pected blackmail among other theories. She formed this theory on ua visit to her Chicago flat of a mysterious Woman who had a strange interest in her husband and an intimate knowledge of his history. It was the day before she left for St. Louis that her visitor called. She was a German woman, about 4 years of age, with a thick-set figure. She introduted herself as Mrs. Maria Haffner, a West End widow,’’ whom Armitage h deceived and deserted for Mrs. Stiepel, o in turn pan been deserted for the then Mrs. Armi- Age. Mrs. Haffner told Mrs. Armitage about a baby which her husband had a share in at the Stiepel household and a number of other incidents in_ker career, which, under ordi- nary circumstances, would not ipcrease ned love and respect for her lawful spouse, But Mrs. Armitage suspected that there were Sinister motives behind the visit and al- though the West End widow remained all night at the flat and the two women oc- cupied the same bed, neither of them slept awink. They lay side by side, neither dar- ing to close their eyes for fear of being in- jured by the other. The next day their 2 suspicions culminated in a row and Mrs. Haffner disappeared. ; Then, ag has been stated, Mrs. Armitage came to St. Louis. She made up her min to #2. ont to the Stiepel woman's residence and find out whatehe knew about her miss- ing husband.

She wanted to convince herself that he was not there. The last heard of Armitage was at Colo- rado Springs. Neither the whereabouts of him or his wife are now known. He had led a gay life in Texas and Arkansas, hav- ing been married in Little Rock under the name of Throop. It was believed that Mrs, Stiepel’s story about a child having been born in Germany was one of her tricks to force Armitage to marry. eters Mrs. Stiepel has been a shrewd business woman. She leaves about $100,000, most of which will go to her 19-year-old daughter, a young woman of rare musical talent.

In addition to these, John H. Dieckman, | who lives in the Twenty-fourth Ward, ts now building a handsome residence in the West End and will remove from the dis- trict in the spring.

Plea for Equal Suffrage Befere Senate : and House Committees. WASHINGTON, Jan. 28.—The Senate Mharble room was cdmpletely filled to-day by a delegation of ladies from the National Equal Suffrage Association, who appeared before the Senate Committee on Woman Suffrage to present their plea for recogni- tion at the ballot box. Senators Call and Peffer were the only members of the com- mittee present, and they were late in ar- riving. The ladies were all present at i o’clock, the hour specified for the meeting. The speakers were presented by Dr. Annie Shaw. They represented the States as follows: Conecticut, Mrs. Elizabeth D. n; aware, Mary E. Milligan; Dis- trict of Columbia, Mrs. Ellen P. Thompson; Illinois, Mrs. Frank Hubbard; Kentucky, Sally C. Bennett; M land, Caroline H. Miller; Massachusetts, Salvinia H. Hatch; Michiga;, May S. Knaggsa; Minnesota, Julia B. Nelson; Missouri, Mra. Conkling Whit- ney; New Jersey, Dr. Mary Hussey; New York, Mariana W. Chapman; North Caro- lina, Helen M. Lewis; Oklahoma, Mrs. R. W. Southard; Pennsylvania, Mrs. Blanken- burg; Rhode Island, Mrs. Mary Arnold; South Carolina, Virginia D. Young; Ver- mont, Mary N. Chase; Virginia, Cora Langhorne. None of the speeches were of more than five minutes’ duration. The speakers all dwelt upon the right of the female sex to equal participation with men in shaping legislation, and almost all of them referred to the injustice of taxing women without al- lowing them to vote. Mrs. Thompson of the District of Col- umbia declared that there were 25 per cent pore of educated girls than of educated oys. Mrs. Hubbard indirectly rasped the com- mittee by declaring that women had shown two of the virtues of statesmanship to-day, those of punctuality and patience, the ref- erence being to the tardiness or absence of the members of the committee. A delegation also visited the Judictary Committee room of the House and made speeches to the committee. The speakers were introduced by Susan B. Anthony, and among those who spoke were Henry B Blackwell of Bostoh, Mrs. Saunders, wife of ex-Senator Saunders of Montana; Eliza- beth Yates of Maine; Dr. Cora 8. Eaton of North Dakota; Mrs. Sarah Colbyiof the Woman's Tribune, Mrs. Francis Williams, a Nevada ranch and mine owner, and Mrs. Caroline M. Eberhard of Ohio. GLAD 10 BE RELIEVED. Col. Guinzburg Discusses the Chdhge in the Executive Committee. Col, H. A. Guinzburg returned Monday night from a trip of three weeks to the East, He accompanied to Washington the dele- gation that tried to secure the National Democratic Convention for St. Louis, and then went on to New York on private busi- ness. . During his absence the Executive Commit- tee of the St. Louis Democracy, of which he was appointed chairman at the inception of the new movement, met and reorganized by ‘electing Lieut-Gov. John B. O'Meara in his stead. Col. Guinzburg had heard nothing of thie until he got back home, and though the action was a surprise to him, it causes him no regret. . “As @ matter of fact,” said Cal. Guinz. burg to a Post-Dispatch reporter, “I am very glad that the committee has been reorganized and Gov. O’Meara made Chair- man. It relieves me of a grave responsi- bility and a great deal of very thankless work. It appears that during my absence an emergency arose, rendering immediate action necessary. Before the action needed could be taken it was deemed advisable to have it formally approved by the Chairman of the committee, and as I was away and would not be back for two weeks the -re- ization was effected, “Nearly all the work reported by the committee up to the time of reorganization had been done by me, and, as I before said, I am glad to be relieved of it.“ SHOOT SWINDLERS CAUGHT.

For four days he wandered around the mine trying to find the passageway out. When no longer able to stand on his ‘feet he crawled on kis hands and knees. In the course of his wan- derings he struck a mule stable. Here he had a fight with scores of big rats for the 888 of some oats. He ate oats, and e thinks it sustained his strength for a time. When he crawled out of the chamber it was with the intention of dying of star- vation. Rats surrounded him, ready to prey on his body. 0 OBITUARY. Death of Gen. Joseph Porter of New York.
