Ke Maintained His Cemposure te the Last and Declared He Was Innocent. PHILADELPHIA, Pa., May 7.—H. H. Holmes-was hanged in Moyamensing Prison this morning. The drop fell at 10:12 o'clock. It was not until half hour later that he was pronounced dead. His neck was broken by the fall. The marvelous nerve of the man never deserted him to the very end. Even on the scaffo he was probably the coolest person in the solemn assemblage. In a few well-chosen words he proclaimed his innocence of any murder, including that for which he was convicted and hanged. He declared that the only wrongdoing in the taking of human life, for which he could be held responsible consisted in the death of two women who had died as the result of criminal operations at his hands. He did not name these victims. Holmes spent the greater part of hia last night on earth writting letters. At midnight he went to bed and elept soundly until 6 to be hanged. That is all I have to +: pe Holmes wrote letters of farewell until mid- night. It is understood that these commu- nications were addressed to his wife in Gil- manton, N. H., and Geo a of Franklin, Ind., the s0-ca whose testimony did much to bring to-day’s execution. He also penned a letter of instruction to Mr. Rotan, — Absolute secrecy is maintai re ng the contents of these letters. a e body was allowed to hang until 10:45 o’ clock. Then it was cut down and placed in a coffin. . At half-past 12 o'clock the big iron door in the rear of the prison swung open an an undertaker’s wagon, rolled out. In it was a plain black casket containing the body. The wagon drove rapidly to Mount Moriah Cemetery, where it was placed in @ vault. Here it will probably remain for two or three days, when it will be 2 interred in another graveyard. Whether or not it will be finally buried In consecrated ground depends upon Holmes’ last words with Fr. Daily and the will of Archbishop HOLMES’ CRIMES, A Career Unparalleled in the World's History. PHILADELPHIA, May 7.—The murder of Benjamin F. Pitezel, fur which Herman Mudgett, alias II. H. Holmes, was hanged to-day, occurred on Sunday, September 2. 1894. The crime was the culmination of a conspiracy between the men to defraud the Fidelity utual, Life Association of this city of $10,000, and the swindle was success- fully accomplished. olmes and Pitesel became acquainted in Chicago in 1890. Pitezel was married and had six children. He was or, and was not averse to engaging in dishones: busi- . if it were lucrative. olmes had been practicing forgery, and he induced Pitesel to enter the same line.“ In January, 1 Pitezel was arrested in Terre Haute, Ind., for a | forged pa- per.

The figures also mean that Filley will again be elected Chairman of the State Com- mittee and that his control of the party machine will be conzinued for another term of two years or un the next national ad- ministration is inaugurated, which, if Re- publican hopes are realized, will give De Ole Man' control of the Federal patronage in Missouri. As to the succession to the National Com- mitteemanship the Post-Dispatch’'s inform- ant is equally certain, with the same facts in his possession as those indicated that Fil- ley will have a walkover. Of the thirty members of the delegation, which will elect the Missouri member of the National Com- mittee thus far chosen, twenty of them, he says, are positively committed to Filley. ‘As it is a foregone conclusion that the big boss is to dictate the four delegates at large to be elected at St. Joseph next week, it is Sate to add these four votes to the twenty already pledged to him. It is known positively that Delegates Leonard and Smith of the Seventh District, the six delegates from the St. Louis dis- tricts, the two rom Kansas City, Delegates Gideon and Davis of the Fourteenth and those from the Eighth, Ninth and Sixth are pledged to Filley, even though the Kerens people did make a good deal of noise in the conventions of some of these districts. It would seem that Uncle Filley, in ad- vance of all official action, can read his title clear to the three most coveted places in the gift df his party in Missouri, to-wit: Delegate at large to St. Louis, Chairman of the State Committee and National Com- mitteeman. As to the nomination for United States Senator, it is said to be a ave question d ether or not will good ty to a slature is elected. For that reason it is probable that he will not ask for an o indorsement either at St. Joseph or at Springfield.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., May 7.—At the epubilcan Convention in Tomlinson Hall ay 5,000 enthusiastic Republicans crowd- ed the corridors, gallery and floor, anxious to see, bear and participate in what was ac- knowledged to be one of the most im- portant conventidns in the history of the State. The greatest interest centered in the attitude to be assumed by ex-President Har- Fison in his promised address to the dele- ; Fates, and every one of the 1,416 delegates, os Neto as the vast throng of spectators through the preliminaries, busily discussed the possible effect of the Géneral’s expected Appearance on the platform. ; State Chairman J. K. Gowdy called the nvention to order at 10:15 and Rev. D. R. — of Indianapolis offered prayer. The report of the Committee on Rules and Permanent Organization was read. Ex- Gecretary of the Navy Richard W. Thomp- don was reported for Permanent Chairman with a rousing chter, and Gen. Stormont Was named for Secretary. The report was unanimously adopted. When the white-haired “Uncle Dick“ Whompson assumed the gavel he was greet- ed with a rousing reception.

C., May 7.—The Mis- souri Republican Congressmen who knew of the fight in the Fourteenth District against Congressman ‘““Dolly’’ Mosley are not sur- rised that he was defeated yesterday by nider of Cape Girardeau. The story is told here that Mozley’s defeat, was brought about principally by his la artner, Gillespie. As the tale is told here ozley’s partner expected Congressman * to get him at least a $2,000 job in ‘the House, good for two years. That would have made $14,000 for the firm in two years. Their calculations were knocked into pie, however, when Mosley failed to get any- thing, so he turned against his partner, and is said to have worked industriously for an- other man. But Congressman Mosley is all right. He will probably take back to Southeast Missouri about $8,000 of his sal for the two years, and that’s not a ba thing. The friends of Congressman George C. Crowther of St. Joseph are alarmed be- cause of the fight against him, and are afraid he, too, may be turned down when the convention meets next week. JUDGMENT AGAINST KERLBY.

Three men were buried under a ton of earth at Clarendon and Cabanne avenues Thursday morning. They were rescued after half an hour’s heroic work by their fellow laborers. For several weeks a score of men have been employed digging a sewer on the site of the old Kensington Gardens. Thursday morning about 9 o'clock, twenty fect of the southern wall of the trench caved in at a point just west of Clarendon avenue, Some of the men saw the danger and t out of the way, but three of them were caught under the ponderous mass of damp cay. Frank McGovern and Patrick Conway were burted in the earth up to their waists and Richard Quinn was caught and held a prisoner as he was trying to climb out of the trench. The other men were greatly excited and did not stop to find out who had escaped. They jumped to the conclusion that at least ten men were under the pille of clay. Somebody telephoned for two ambulances. Meantime the men got to work and dug their comrades out. It took twenty-five minutes to “(berate them. McGovern and Conway were badly bruised and unable to walk when taken out, though it is thought that no bones were broken. They were taken in an ambulance to St. Mary's Infirmary. They board at 2727 Manchester road. Quinn was bady bruised about the legs, but was able to go to his home at 1917 G' Fallon street on a street car. After the accident the men went to work putting in braces to prevent a recurrence of the accident. THRICE ATTEMPTED SUICIDE. The Desperate Efferts ef a New York Poy to Kill Himself.

CLEVELAND, O., May 7.—To-day's ses- sion of the Methodist Conference was pre- sided over by Bishop Foss and ta services were led by Rev. Brodbeck of Charlestown, Mass. As soon as taken up and Dr. W.

The committee is agreed that at yester- the eligi- bility of women to vote in this conven- tion is a constitutional one, and that the — Conference has the power to inter- pret thé constitution. The committee 18 ommends the modification of the constitu- tion, changing the qualifications gate to the General words, „ the admission of gal. s report, further, that of a dele- onference by using the lay delegates, instead of laymen, women le- this pro- posed amendment be referred to the annual conferences of the following year, and that two-thirds vote of the General Conference and a three-fourths vote of the annual con- ference ber uired to enact this recommen- dation into a law. The report says that in- asmuch as the question has not been judi- cially passed upon, those having seats on the floor can retain them without rejudice. As soon as the report was completed, Dr. Kynett said that neither party gave in from the principle held by them and neith- er majority nor minority surrendered. The views are the same, but it was sion by both parties, Dr. Kynett a conces- said there was a rumor that great pressure had been brought to bear on the women to retire. The committee believe no pressure should be brought to bear on them which would conflict with their duty to their constitu- ente.

Chances for Their Being Ousted From Scheol Board Premising. Issues have been joined in the Supreme Court to remove Henry Bus and H. H. Rebenack from their seats in the St. Louis School Board. Judge Chester H. Krum, who is associated with Attorney General Walker in the case for the State, filed de- nials of the pleas of each of the defendants Thursday. The reply of Judge Krum avers that Bus accepted the position of Deputy Sheriff after his election to the board, and that he still holds it. It recites further that June 11, 1895, the School Board attempted to de- clare his seat vacant and was prevented by a temporary injunction from the Circuit Court. This case is now pending and un- determined. The reply goes on to state that the occu- pation of both positions is unlawful and that macoptanos by Bus pf. sition of y Sheriff divested the right to tinne as a School Di or. ö Judge Krum stated to a Post-Dispatch reporter Thursday that the allegation that Bus is still a Deputy Sheriff is made with a purpose. We do not know whether he has actually resigned or not,“ said Jud Krum, “He will have to prove the truth of his asser- tion that he holds no public office save that of School Director.” In the reply to Rebenack’s return, his statement that he has not been interested in any contracts for supplies for the schools is denied. “We propose to show,” said Judge Krum, “that since Mr. Rebenack has been performing the duties of a School Director he has supplied the public schools with dis- infectants. He is a member of the firm of Cuff & Rebenack, and we can show that this firm has furnished disinfectants to the schools.“ The assertion of Rebenack that he had paid a school tax for the two years pre- ceding his election, is also denied, and, further, it is denied that he had no inter- est at the time of his election in contracts for furnishing supplies to the schools. The two cases will be argued and sub- mitted next Monday. Judge Krum states that there is no fixed.time in which a de- cision may be rendered. SENATOR VEST'S YIEW. He Will Not Be Bound by Federal Of- fice Holders. Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, D. C., May 7.—Senator Vest to-day exposed the way in which the Administration office-holders had diverted the Michigan Convention from silver to “sound money,“ and said: “I have been criticised somewhat in Missouri for saying that I proposed to abide by the will of the Chicago Convention. I want to be under- Stood. I said that I would abide by the will of the majority, but I serve notice now that if it is to be made up of Democratic office-holders, eficiaries of the Adminis- tration, I shall not consider it either Demo- cratic or binding. The Democratic party is of the people and can not be controlled by Federal office-holders.” JUDICIAL CONVENTION. Demecratic Nomination for the Eastern District, August 18. * The Den ebe Executive Committee of the Bastern Judicial District of Missouri met Thursday at the Southern Hotel. The object of the meeting was to arrange for the convention to nominate a candidate for Judge of the St. Louis Court of Appeals to be voted on at the fall elections. It was decided to hold the convention in St. Louls Aug. 18, the basis of delegate representation to be one to each 500 voters of fraction of 20 or over. Though no candidates for the nomination have openly declared themselves, it is un- derstood that Thomas J. Delaney of Spring- field, Washington Cloud of Peirce City and E. Benton of Neosho will be in the race. - RECEIVER ASKED FOR. — —— (U —V— Complaint Against the Active Building Associatien Ne. 3. John J.

Cc —— A WONDERFUL SALE. The “Grand Leader’s” Challenge Sale Beats All Records. This has been a decidedly busy and an emphatically successful week at the “Grand Leader.“ The week’s crowds resembled those at Christmas time—but there were good reasons. This challenge sale has really called out the lowest prices on mer- chandise that St. Louis has seen for many a long day and St. Louis women recognize that fact at a glance. Besides that, it has become an established fact that whatever is seen in a “Grand Leader“ advertisement is true and can be relied upon. With such a grand reputation for keeping faith with the people it is not surprising that the “Grand Leader's“ challenge sale should have been so great a success, or that its daily business should have become so enor- mous in the few ghort years of its history.

Friday Effert to Take the Democratic Conven- tion Away From Chicage. Special to The Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, D. C., May 7.—Behind the story that the Democratic National Exec- utive Committee is to consider at its meet- ing in New York to-day a proposition to re- move the National Democratic Convention from Chicago is a tale of gold bug scheming, which is of interest. The Democratic Executive Committee is controlled by sound money” men. Since the Cook County Democracy set its prim- aries for May 26, and the silver men an- nounced that they proposed to control it, the gold men have hatched an elaborate scheme. The men who are putting up Chi- cago’s money are for 2 They say that if the silver men win in Cook County and Chicago, it would never do to hold the Na- tional Convention in Chicago. The Demo- cratic Executive Committee is in sympathy with them. It is proposed now, it is said, to open the way for removing the convention else- where. The suggestion that it will be sent, to St. Louis is only a blind. The “gold- bugs” want it to go either to Cincinnati or New York, preferrably the latter. Un- less the silver men appreciate the danger, there is strong probability that the con- vention may be located in New York. That is said to be the inside plan of the men who are behind the new movement. Germania Theater Friday Evening. “Romeo and Juliet” and THE HOWLERS. af HOLMES HANGED 7 IN PHILADELPHIA.

Among the effects found in the room were several letters from “Perry's” wife in St. Louis, the signatures to which had been torn off. The Coroner’s physicians ae — autopsy, and, — e 8 he. chloroform and conges ave a verdict of death from inhaling the umes ef chloroform. About three weeks after this occurrence, Jeptha D. Howe, a St. Louis attorney, after correspondence with Coroner Ashbridge of this city, came here and asserted that the body was that of Benjamin F. Pitezel, and that he—Howe—was here to collect $10,000 insurance from the Fidelity Company, for which amount a policy had been made out in favor of Mrs. teze] in Chic a year before. Meanwhile Holmes, who had intro- duced Pitezel to the insurance nts, was induced by them to come to UHadelphia and identify the body. This he did posi- tively, and so did Alice Pitezel, the 16-year- old daughter of the dead man. With this unequivocal testimony the insurance com- pany paid the money. Here the first stage of this extraordinary affair came to a close. The second opened some time afterwards, when Marion C. Hedgepeth, the notorious train robbber, in jail at St. Louis, declared that Holmes, while in an adjoining cell, had told him of a conspiracy with Pitezel and Howe to swindle a Philadelphia insurance com y by the substitution of a body.

About the Inaugars’. While the Field Will BS S. u It Will Make Up in Quality What It Lacks in Quirtity. —— It le tow certain that the Inaugural Handicap will, in the vernacular of the turfite,\be “a horse race.“ Everybody fa- millar with the expressive and pungent language of the men who pin their faith and hopes on the thoroughbred horse knows what that means. It means a magnificent struggle between a lot of game animals, fit to run for a man’s life or a kingdom, for @ purse that is a small fortune in itself. The race will not be a walkover. At least five of the horses that will start have more than a possible chance to win. And with five good ones to select from what more can the spectators and speculating public desire? Scarcely more than seven horses will start for the rich prige. Three days ago it looked ke a dozen would face the gate, but the rials of Wednesday and Thursday have convinced many owners of the n of scratching their entries. This will be all the better for the character of the race. It is 1 not quantity, that makes a horse race. No horse will go to the post Sat- urday unless he is fit to run in the company. This wili simmer the race down to just such animals as are on edge,“ which will insure 6 nd struggle, in all probaility the great- @st ever seen on a Western track.

The track at this point offers the best opportun. ity for timing the trials, and there was not man who had a “stop” who did not put it to use. Assignee was the first crack out. The son of Spendthrift was jogged a couple of miles and then sent along for half a mile at a 1:44 clip. Assignee has had plenty of work lately, too much some 3 say, and was not pushed. He liked is work and is undoubtedly in splendid condition. Magnet's work was closely watched, but there was u diversity of opinion concern- ing it. He went a mile in 1:42. Some say that he finished strong, while others say that he had to be booted out. From this they argue that he is not up to a bruising race, such as the Inaugural promises to be. Be that as it may, there is no doubt that Magnet stock went down a point with the railbirds on his showing Thursday. Buck Massie was out, but was not ex- tended. His mile Wednesday in 1:41% with a big boy up, satisfied his owner. inda reeled off the distance in better than 1:43. © mare will carry some stable money turday. . - The chatter along the rails Thursday morning was all about Urania. There is a quiet tip going about the grounds to keep your eye on the Kendall filly.”” Urania ar- rived ednesday and was out bright and early. She went the mile in 1:42 without urging. This set people to wondering if Chris Smith hasn’t got something up his sleeve and started a Urania boom. She fin- ished second in the race last year.

It now looks like Buck Massie will go to the post a slight favorite over Magnet and Assignee. Of course, everybody interested in turf matters is wondering what odds the pen- cilers are going to give them. A well posted man in such matters said. Thursda that a fair slate on the race ought to loo something like this: Buck Massid 2 to 1: Magnet, 5 to 2; Assignee, 3 to 1; Urania, 5 to 1; Linda, 8 to 1; Don Carillo, 15 to 1; Sir Play, 20 to 1. These figures show about how the chances of the various horses stand in popular estimation, but it is practically certain that the ‘‘bookies" will not do quite this well by the public, as they have a reputation to maintain for- not looking for the worst of it.’ * . - More horses are arriving at the grounds each day. J. Abernathy got in Thursday with Davissac and a couple of good 2-year- olds. Several small strings were accom- modated with stable room. Considerable conftsion has been caused by a lack of understanding on the part of the owners of the arrangements for making entries. All entries must be made at the Secretary’s office, near the amphitheater, Pintries for Saturdays races will be re- ceived until 4 o’clock Friday afternoon. After that entries for each day will close at noon of the day previous, Prospects were never so bright for a successful meeting since the Fair Grounds track was built. President Maffitt and Secretary Aull are both much encouraged by the way horses are coming in and the interest shown in the meeting all over the West. Secretary Aull reports that most of the horses now at Louisville will come here directly that meeting ends. The standard of the racing wll be higher than for several seasons past and every effort will be made to keep the sport entirely free from scandal. 5 Pat Dunne, John Newsom and Secretary Aull went to Louisville to see the Derby. They got back Thursday well pleased with their trip. Dunne uncorked a good thing over there in Stentor and now his friends are roasting him for not putting them „next.“ He says the telegram went wrong. Dunne says that, reports to the con- trary notwithstanding, the best colt won the derby. While Ben Brush was not as well up to a bruising race as Ben Eder, he was the gamer animal and won by sheer luck, as well as superior piloting. The wyer crack ran a good race, but was not at his best. Still Acaugan's colt ran grandly, and had he had a better jockey up would have won. Only a nose separated th at the finish. The result of the racc will stimulate interest in the great Na- tional Derby, the premier event of the Western turf, which is to be run here. Had Ben Brush won in hollow style it would have the national of all stake wonld have been at his mercy. As it is now, the question of superiority is still unsettled and there will be an immense crowd out to see the great pair come together at the Fair Grounds, THE BROWNS ARE ALL RIGHT. They Gave the Phillies Three Desper- ate Battles—Why They Should Win. The Phillies won their third straight game from the Browns yesterday. It was taken in exactly the same manner as the two previous ones—by a great batting rally in the last two innings. Seldom has a finer or more exciting game been played in St. Louis. Cleaner fielding or harder batting wes never done upon a ball field. Both teams did excellent work with the stick, and their playing in the field was always brilliant and sometimes sensational. Quinn, Delehanty and Thomp- don made some of the most wonderful fielding plays ever seen upon the diamond. Breitenstein and Taylor were the pitchers. Taking into consideration the fact that Breitenstein’s arm is not yet in perfect condition, he did wonderful work. Be- fore the game he said he felt well, but com- plained that he did not have the speed he should. However, he expects a few more warm days will bring back all his old-time swiftness. Breit was touched up for twelve hits, but with the exception of those in the eighth inning, they were well scattered. He would have won the game had it not been for the mighty Delehanty. : he Browns hit Taylor hard, but only in the fourth inning could they make their hits develop into runs. Parrott’s great triple with the bases full helped the team to three of these runs. Sin- gles by McFarland and Cross did the rest. The Phillies scored one run in the first and two in the fifth. In the eighth singles by Nash, Clements and Sullivan, an error by Cross and double by Delehanty put the Quakers one run to the good. probably roobed interest, as the — > The Browns would have won were it not for sensational catches by Thompson and Delehanty. Meyers, the last man to the bat in the eighth, lifted a wonderful fly to right. It looked like a sure home run, when old Sam Thompsdn, who has been playing ball for 25 years, raced under it and placing dis back against the wire fence reached far out into the “shoot the chutes” lake and grabbed the ball in his right hand. Thomp- son did not know that he had it, and was 60 overcome with surprise and emotion that he could not move. He stood like a statue 93 a minute and held the ball imply by his e. The stands and the players rose at the old hero and cheered him again and again. In the ninth inning Quinn drove what looked Uke a 1 to deep left. The ball salled on a dead line and not one spectator thought that Delehanty had a chance for it. The big left fielder came along carrying his 20 pounds as lightly as a feather and picked the ball up just as it was about to strike the ground. Delehanty did the trick with so little appearance of effort that it looked easy. * — The Browns aid some fine fielding. Old reliable Quinn cut off two incipient triples by marvelous stops in the eighth and ninth innings. There may be better second base- men than Quinn, but they never come to St. Louts. Parrott also nobly acquitted himself in the field. True, he made a bad muff of Brouth- ers’ fly in the first inning which was respon- ble for one run, but it was excusable. With two men on bases and one out big Dan hit a long liner to right. It looked eafe and the runners all ran around. Parrott came in like a quarter horse and steadied himself for a double play. In his anxiety to catch ope throw with the same motion he dropped However, his three-bagger atoned for the mistake and by good running and throwing he held two triples and three doubles down to singles. If Parrott would wait for a good ball he would lead the League in batting. He is too eager and som es hits at wild pitch- es. As a fielder he will be all right if kept im the game every dax —ͤ—U—D) — — DIDDLEBOCK’S NEW PITCHER. Campfield, Late of Dallas, Signs With Rr St. Louis.

He inspected the famous Foun- tain Ferry track at that piace yesterday and expressed himself as much pleased with its general appearance. President Maffitt of the Fair Association is very enthusiastic on the subject of build- ing a track at the Fair Grounds. He told a Post-Dispatch reporter this morning that the association is considering the advis- ability of building in two places. One plan is to build a new track and grandstand in the southwest extremity of the grounds, the other to enlarge the amphitheater so that it will permit ot the construction ofa one-third mile track. The latter scheme would prave the most expensive, but Mr. Maffitt thinks it would have additional advantage of being pro- tected from the wind on all sides. This would, of course, result in a very fast track. „ = . R. H. Combs, one of the Century Club’s crack riders, met with a severe and pain- ful l While speeding east on Delmar avenue onday night.

At that time Col. Byrnes called upon the various office-holders, 1 Postmaster Harlow, Collector Wenneker, ub-Treasurer Farrar and. Surveyor Churchill. All of these gentlemen he met upon the street and spoke to about a fund for an educational cam- paign in the interest of the Republican party They met at Gen. Farrar’s house and each contributed. Mr. Wenneker gave $1,000, Sur- veyor Churchill, $500; Gen. Farrar, $500; and Marshal Buchanan, $500. Postmaster Harlow was shy his contribution and it is understood never paid it. O.

Wenneker said: “I am satisfied that the money went to the gen- eral good of the party and I suppose if I am satisfied no one else has a right to object. It was a voluntary contribution and was not made under pressure. I knew it took money to run a big campaign and was ready to do my Share. Comptroller Sturgeon, who was Assistant Postmaster at the time, said: “I did not contribuze, but I met Mr. Byrnes at the time. I believe Maj.

C., May 7.—Almost 30,000 Government employes were brought with one sweep under the protection of the civil service by the issuance of an order by President Cleveland making a general re- vision of civil service rules. The order is the most important since the inauguration of the system, more than a decade ago. It takes effect immediately. The new rules add 29,399 positions to the classified list, increasing the number of classified positions from 55,786 to 85,135. The number of clagsified places which are ex- cepted from examination has been reduced from 2,099 to 775, being mainly positions as cashiers in the customs, postal and internal revenue services. Indians who will be em- ployed in minor capacities m that country were necessarily put in the excepted lisi. A Almost all of the positions in Washington which have heretoforfe been excepted have been included in the competitive list. The only classified . positions in Washington which will be excepted from examination under the new rules will be private secre- taries or confidential clerks (not to exceed two) to the President and to the head of each of the eight executive departments. No positions will hereafter be subject to non- competitive examination,except in the cases of Indians employed in a teaching capacity in the Indian service, BATTLE IN FLORIDA.

TABULES | Mr. Karah Goff, residing at 1010 Adeline street, Kansas City, Mo., states: Although I am young and have always been healthy and blessed with a good appetite, yet during the past six months I have been affected— after I would eat a hearty meal— with a severe pain in the stomach, lasting for from one to three hours, causing me great distress. Then again I would become suddenly dizzy and almost fall sometimes. This would happen on the street and cause me.a good deal of annoyance. The only relief I could get was the constant use of cathartics. About two months ago a friend gave me a small vial of Ripans Tabules, asking me to try them, as they had done him good. I did, and was so pleased with the result that I bought a 50-cent box, and up to the present time have had no further trouble with my stomach.” * Tabules are sold by druggists, or it the price (0 cents & Dox) ta seat te’ The Sample vial, 16 coota.

NEW YORK, May 7.—A local paper this morning says: It was reported in Newark last night that several members of the First Regiment of the National Guard there had accepted generous offers to fight for Cuba's independence, and had left the city under orders of the Cuban Junta. The number of guardsmen who are Fo- ing is not definitely known. It was learned, however, that at least a dozen have already signed an agreement with the representatives of the junta, and a much larger number are seriously considering the matter with the prospect that they will join the expedition. On Tuesday night the first detachment left Newark. The party was in charge of Willlam L. Edwards and Private Haggerty, and was composed en- tirely of members of the First Regiment. They were escorted to a rendezvous in this city, where they are said to be now sta- tioned. It was given out that the expedition in which the Newarkers will take part was to embark on a steamer at Perth Amboy. This report was intended to throw the emissaries of the Spanish Government off the scent. It is said the men who will make up the party will board a vessel at sea, being conveyed from various points in tugs and sailing vessels. ne volunteer is said to have been offered a bonus of $700, together with his fare to Jacksonville and a monthly compensation of $30. Another statement is that the men are to receive a bonus of $100 and $22 a month. The representatives of the junta have for several weeks st maintained a recrult: ing station in the city. It known thet a number of influential members of Le Post, G. A. R., have been — 2 them. force of men recruited ffom all parts of the country is said to be in Newark now waiting a chance to reach Cuba. AS-TO BELLIGERENCY. Counsel for the Cuban Legation Pre- pares a Statement. NEW YORK, May 7.—The Cuban Junta has issued a statement of the law regard- ing Cuban belligerency, together with a petition of Tomas Estrada Palma, delegate of the Republic of Cuba, for the recognition by the United States of the belligerency of the Cubans. The statement was prepared by Horatio 8. Rubens, counsel for the Cu- ban legation in this city, and a copy of the same to-day will be in the hands of every Congressman. It is pointed out that with the existence of civil war comes the question of recog- nition and that much of the existing mis- apprehension on the subject arises from a confusion of the various kinds of recogni- tion of insurgents—first, recognition of bel- ligerency, which is the lowest grade; sec- ond, virtual or commercial recognition, and third, recognition of independence. That the Cubans are conducting a war Mr. Rubens shows by citing the strength of their army of 60,000 men and Spain's army of 120,000. The present attitude of neu- trality by the United States, he says, gives a great advantage to Spain. Sagasta on Reforms. NEW YORK, May 7.—A dispatch to the Herald fiom Madrid says: Former. Premier Sagasta denies that there e ence ot opinion among Léberal leaders re- ply may Cuba. He said: The war costs a undred million dollars annually and cer- tanly 10,000 soldiers every year. Can we fold our arms in the face of this sorrowful aspect? The Liberal minority will do its duty. We shall endeavor to procure prac- tical solutions of the difficulty in order that the institution of reforms, instead of being a promise, shall become a reality.“ FIRE AT HEIDELBERG. Four Persons and 27 Horses Perish in a Riding School. HEIDELBERG, May 7.—The University Riding School was burned to-day. Four ersons were suffocated, and several others ad narrow escapes. Twenty-seven horses perished German-African Scandals. BERLIN, May T.— Eugene Wolffe, the African explorer, has published a card charging the Foreign Office with bad faith in pointing Lieut.

About twenty-five of the committeemen answered to their names when Secretary Albert Griffen called the roll in ready obe- dience to Filley’s command in the assembly room of the Merchants’ League Club at 10:30 a. m. Nearly every one of them was asked by reporters before the meeting what its objécts ‘were and not one of them professed the slightest knoWledge or the faintest gleam of information. Boss Filley fought’ shy of reporters and when finally cornered by them brusquely re- plied that it was none of their business. Col. “Bill” Leeper of the Fourth District, usually frank and outspoken, was dumb as an oyster, though he ventured, in a timid sort of way, this assertion: “I guess Mr. Filley wants to decide on the general programme for the temporary organization of the St. Joseph Convention. Maybe we will name the temporary chair- man thus early, so as to give him time to prepare a rousing speech. You know it is much better to do that than to suddenly surprise somebody with so great an honor and have him make a bungling extempo- raneous speech.” Julius urtzberger guarded the door, and after the committee had been in ges- sion a half hour s‘artled the waiting re- r with the information that nothing ad either been dlsqgussed or done. “Filley’s committeemen are just sitting around like a lot of wooden Indians. are they?’ inquired the newspaper men in 3 * 5 “You insult us!“ ctammered the infur'i- ate Jann 8 , f err uchenstein o Clayton emerged from the star chamber” and 1— besieged, declared that he “‘coulén’t betray the confidence of the committee.” Cen- gressman Bartholdt at tnis point floated in om the street, all smiles and self-gratu- lation over the “blow-out"’ his constituents had given him in South St. Louis the night before, and feigned the utmost surprise that any sort of political meeting was in progress. Joe Kletsker of the Twelfth District finally relieved the journalistic tension by escaping the eagle cye of Wurtszberger, — by the other ds at the door and volunteering tae information to the re- porters that the Siate Committee was con- sidering the Tweifth District contest and was trying to reach some basis for an { ble settlement between the warring factions.

THE LIGHT THAT FAILED, Roentgen Rays” Put to Shame by the Telephonic Probe. Special to The Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, May 7.—After the X rays had failed to locate a bullet in a man’s leg at Bellevue Hospital yesterday, it was found by Dr. Gardner’s telephonic probé The case was one of the greatest interest to the medical profession. The patient was Chas. Deval. Two years ago, while examining a revolver, he shot himself in the left leg ust above the knee. Physicians could not ocate the bullet, and he was sent to the hospital in March last. The X rays were turned on his leg without result. A half dozen shadowgraphs were obtained, but the bullet was hidden even from the eye of the new light. The doctors were puzzled. After a study of the case the 3 of Bellevue determined to apply the telephonic probe. This instrument is like an ordinary telephone, and records the touch of any for- eign substance in the body. The operation was before an open clinic. Deval refused to take an anaesthetic. The X ray photo- graphs were produced and then the tele- rere probe was inserted. The click of the ullet sounded in the physician’s ears in a few seconds and the missile was on the table a minute later. Cheers greeted the success of the operation. MILWAUKEE CAR STRIKE, The City Council Putting Pressure on the Company. MILWAUKEE,. May 7.—The Common Council took up the street railway strike adopted a resolution for the appointment of a committee of five Aldermen to act in conjunction with similar committees of the Merchants and Manufacturers’ Association and the Street Railway Employes’ Union in an effort to mediate. Another resolution instructed the City Attorney to take steps to vacate the franchises of the street rail- way company unless the officers of that cor- poration agree to submit the questions at issue between them and their late employes to arbitration. For the first time since the strike began the police admit that the situation is becom- ing serious. Though the police force was strengthened by eighty-five special offi- cers yesterday, Mayor Rauschenberger and Chief of Police Janssen have decided that in view of the demonstrations during the day 100 additional officers should be sworn in at once, Disturbances continue to occur in all of the city where attempts are made to run cars. The new men are stoned, car windows smashed, switches plugged and other acts of violence committed. The crowds are so scattered and so strong in numbers that the police are unable to preserve order, Few cars are in operation and they are run ir- regularly. BRITISH ARE STUBBORN, Refuse te Join in Any Plan te Step Seal Destruction. WASHINGTON, D. C., May 7.—The ne- gotiations between the United States and Great Britain respecting the Behring Sea seal fisheries during the past year indicate that these fisheries are in a very unsatis- factory state and that up to this time the British Government has firmly resisted every effort of the Department of State to extend the scope of the regulations pre- ascribed by the Paris arbitration, well known to be inefficient in important re- spects and, in fact, has even relaxed the regulations — as to facilitate the illegal killing of seals. The State Department endeavored in vain to secure a continuance in force of the re- quirements that all firearms carried by sealing vessels in the seal waters should be sealed up in the close season. The Brit- ish Government held that the Paris award did not impose any such requirement and refused to include it in the regulations, notwithstanding that it was represented by our Government that the absence of some regulation constituted a violation of the plain intent of the Paris tribunal's findings. ASBURY PARK CRUSADE. War Will Be Waged Against the Drink Evil That Is Under Gover. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, May 7.—Though Asbury Park is already a most rigid temperance town, an important movement will be in- augurated there this summer against the drink evil that is supposed to exist under cover.

Bradley has consented to allow the army 0 erect a tent at Asbury Park during July and August. This will be Col. Hadiey’s headquarters. A paper. will be started, too, RECEIVER APPOINTED For the New Mexico Mining Company at Santa Fe. SANTA FE, N. M., May 7.—Newton 8.
