WAS OPENED WITHOUT PRAYER. Morning Session Was Chiefly Given Up to Speeches by Newlands, St. John and Mrs. Gougar. The Silver Convention began its second day's session wfhout the customary invoca- tion, not that the delegates didn't feel ina prayerful mood, but because the Rev. S. J. Niccolls was unexpectedly called out of the city. " Grand Music Hall was uncomfortably hot, but the attendance was larger than on Wednesday, more delegates in their seats and a larger audience in the galleries. When the convention was called to order Congressman Newlands announced that the expenses of holding the convention had not been provided for. At his suggestion a Ways and Means Committee, composed of one delegaté from each State, was appoint- ed. The committee will see that the neces- ‘gary expense fund is provided. Chairman St. John then introduced Vice- Chairman Towne of Minnesota, who ad- Gréssed the convention. Mr. Towne was one of the silver delegates who bolted from the Republican conven- tion and was talked of by the Populists as a candidate for President. He is a smooth- faced man, of. about 40, with a splendid voice, fluept diction and an effective manner of delivery. His periods were weil rounded and nearly all of them were applauded. He said that the press of the country had apparently forgotten its sacred duty and had become the pliant tool of monopoly. Money was, the God it worshipped. But the day of Wneration was at hand. H story was being de to-day. The people had been lax, but had determined to mahage their own They had suffered grievously at the hands of monopolies and *rusts, but here- after they would look after their own af- fairs. He concluded by denouncing the prin- ciples of the present money eystem. The del- egateg cheered long and loud. he single gold standard would ruin the masses o 6 people.

Speaking of Chauncey M: Depew, he said r. ag yf Was a man whose jokes were sought for on this side of the water and his opinions on the other, where he was not so well wn... Dr. I standard min and a monopolist, and wanted to impose the English yoke of gold on the necks of the people of America. The speaker next explained the free silver question, and hé attempted to show how hard times would vanish when free silver appeared. When the free silver party got control of the Government, the robbery of thrift for the benefit of idleness would cease, Three months ago a man who would have dared to predict that free silver would win in the com election would have been set down as an imbecile. Now the moves ment had grown to such proportions, that victory was not only possible, but certain; certain if the silver forces united. Sacri- fices must be made on all sides. The fac- tions must all unite, and the patriotic peo- ple would be relieved of their burdens, There was loud and uproarious cheering by the delegates when Mr. Towne ended. There were loud calls for Gov. Stone, who was in the hall, but he did not respond. Ex-Gov. St. John of Kansas next ad- dressed the convention. He was warmly received. He said: 1 si: asked the. other day how are crops. answered: Crops are ood. We are getting 7 cents for oats, pet 2 God we are getting sound money “I visited another place where oats were selling for 6 cents, and I said: ‘Thank God. We have a tariff." (Laughter.) If there is anything on earth that is deader than Gro- ver Cleveland tt is the McKinley bill.“ Gov. St. John met with such frequent ap- plauss that he was encouraged to go on, and made quite a lengthy speech, in the course of which he spoke of the commercial value of gold. He declared that gold had no commer value except that reads on it dy law. The only genuine 100-cent dollar was the dollar of our daddies.” He denounced the bond issues of Cleve- land as the most 88 acts of any chief ruler of modern times, and declared it nothing less than robbery under the guise of law to enrich a clique of bankers. It was the rankest cowardice to say that AN hers could not now accomplish what 3,000, Americans did 100 years ago. The chains now forged by En — were equally as lung as those of 1776. He be- eved that there was encugh genuine Amer- ican patriotism left to crush out the Bene- dict Arnolds who would resell us to En- Slish domination. he time had come for men to throw away partyism and substitute patriotism. The battle cry of this campaign should be a free ballot and free silver. As Gov. St. John concluded a young man marched across the stage with a big ban- ner, on which were caricatures of Herr Most and McKinley shaking hands, with the inscription, ‘‘Unite and Down These.” he audience rose and velled.

Horrible Fate of Owen Dooley, a Night Watchman at the Standard Iron Foundry. Owen Dooley, the night watchman at the, Standard Iron Foundry, 1240 Collins street, was found,dead in the boiler room early Thursday morning, where he had been scalded to death some time during the night. The steam gauges on the boilers were open and the boilers were empty. It is pre- sumed that early in the evening,as had been his custom, he had allowed the steam to run out of the boilers through the gauges and cocks and that he was unable to shut them off. The steam filled the room, it is thought, so that he could not find his way out and was overcome and fell to the floor, where he was scalded. ä The police reported that Dooley’s death was due to heart disease, they not having investigated the case. The body was re- moved to the Morgue. BAYAN STANDS BY Mg. SEWALL. — INSISTS THAT HITS RUNNINdMATE ALSO BE INDORSED. SO NOTIFIED SENATOR JONES. Is Not Inclined te Accept a Nomina- tion by Populists Unless Sewall Is Included. The Bryan people are becoming more and more confident each day of the indorsement of Mr. Bryan by the Populist convention. They are now claiming that he will be named on the first ballot. Most of them concede, however, that it will be very difficult to secure similar action abandoned their efforts in this direction. They now contemplate an adjournment of the convention immediately after Mr. Bry- an's nomination, in case that should be se- cured, with the hope of bringing the opposi- tion to Mr. Sewall to see the wisdom of his support. If they fail on Sewall, the plan is to ac- cept the nomination of Mr. Bryan independ- ent of Sewall. Mey state this can be done and that Populist State organizations can, where they have a mind to do so, addpt the Bryan and Sewall tickets regardless of the action of the National Convention. Senator Jones, the Democratic Chairman, has been consulted upon this plan and has given his opinion that tt is possible. Senator Jones is, however, still holding out for the indorsement of the entire ticket as the best and only wise course to be pur- sued. He is urged to do this by Mr. Bryan himself, who has wired the Senator that he is not ‘inclined to accept any indorsement that is not also given to his Democratic running mate. Some of Bryan’s friends say, however, that they will take what they can get, and even if Bryan does not formally accept the nomination they will make him their candi- date, regardless of this formality. Some of them regard this as the best position for him to be placed in. With reference to Sewall, his friends and those of Mr. Bryan hold that the Western States would pursue the course they outline of taking both, regardless of the Convention’s action on Sewall. They think the Populist candidate for Vice-President would be voted for in the South, but they rely on the Democrats to carry the Southern States for both Bryan and Sewall. THE FIRST BALLOT Gov. Holcomb of Nebraska Predicts a Swift Victory for Mr. Bryan. Gov. Holcomb of Nebraska authorizes a denial of the report that he has aban- doned the idea of securing the indorse- mem of Mr. Bryan's candidacy; but says that he now feels more confident of suc- cess than ever before.

It Went Through With the Rest and the Presentation of Can- didates Began. Special to the Post-Dispatch. SPRINGFIELD, Mo., July 23.— There was bigger politics in the sudden and surprising adjournment of the convention last night at 9 o’clock to 9:30 this morning than appears on the surface. The ostensible cause of the adjounnment was the failure of the Cre- dentials Committee to make its report. At the hour mentioned Chairman O’ Bannon sent word to the convention that the com- mittee could not get through its work in time to report before 9 this morning. Quick as a flash Chas. Schweickardt of St. Louis, an ardent Walbridgeite, sprang to his feet and moved adjournment. De- light beamed from his grim, Teutonic face. He yelled like a man who had been given a cue, Davis rooters were suspicious of his con- duct and set up a how! of noes, but the ayes overwhelmed them two to one. When the motion to adjourn was declared carried 1 Chairman Bothwell, the Walbridge peo- ple in the galleries, and there were appar- ertly hundreds of them, screamed with toy. The secret of all this is that, with the connivance of Filley, Warner and Wal- bridge had formed a combine to beat Cahoon, Whether the combine can carry Walbridge through depends entirely on the MAJ. WM. WARNER OF KANSAS CITY. developments between now and the time the first test cf strength between Kerens and Filley is made. If when the alignment is made De Ole Man’’ discovers that his forces are strong and solid enough to nomi- nate Lewis, he will leave Walbridge to his fate and take up the Henry County man. If they are not he will throw his strength to Walbridge and humiliate Kerens by de- feating Cahoon. This story comes straight from the Filley headquarters. The Kerens people learned of it, and they were at first angrier with aa Warner than they have ever been at Filley. They had counted on Warner's sup- port of Cahoon. _. Warner's desire to beat Davis exceeds his every other desire at present. The only way he could defeat Davis was through the Credentials Committee. To get that com- mittee on his side he had to beg Flley for a compromise. Filley’s only demand was that Warner throw Kerens and this is what Warner did when he combined with Wal- bridge or that is what he seemed to do. To agree fully on the terms of the com- bine it was necessary to postpone all pro- ceedings last hight, in order to give the principals time to consult. The Walbridge managers now claim that if Lewis is not nominated on the third ballot their man will get there on the fifth and the Filleyites do not attempt to gainsay this. None of the St. Louis crowd is now openly fighting Walbridge. All of the Merchants’ League members, including the heretofore vocifer- ously hostile drum corps, are now wearing Walbridge badges. They put them on last night. i At 11 o' clock last night, after he had won his fight in the Credentials Committee, Maj. Warner repaired to the Metropolitan Hotel and was closeted there with Cahoon and Kerens for more than an hour. What the result or purpose of the conference was is of course unknown, but the occurrence was of sufficient importance to flustrate the Filleyites greatly and cause a general feeling of uneasiness among them this morning. Warner has so often shown him- self capable of political double dealing that all elements are suspicious of him. It is known as sitively as such —_ ean be known t his victory in the Creden- tials Committee was made possible only by a deal with Walbridge, with Filley’s con- victory by this means it is thou; able t he has turned around an ing. the ultimate end in view of Warner for the Senate by the nominee of this convention, At any rate, the Ker- ensites are not so bitter toward Maj.

The building is reported unsafe and un- sanitary. Noble Shepard’s escape is attributed partly to the condition of the jail and partially to the negligence of Jailer Wag- ner. Wagner is censured severely. The criticism extends beyond the escape of Shepard and refers to the traffic car- ried on between the prisoners and the guards. The overhauling of the jail at once is strongly recommended. The escape of Chas. Lavigne from 2 cage in Criminal Court Room No. 2 is charged to the gross carelessness of Sheriff Troll's son and deputy. Young Troll’s neglect of his duty is condemned. The Sheriff is let down light and it is rec- ommended that he be allowed more money to employ deputies. The police get it good and hard.

At that time the wisest of us did not anticipate the sudden fall of silver or the RISE of gold that has oc- curred. “This uncertainty of the relation between the two met- als is ons of the chief arguments in favor of a monometallic system, but other arguments, showing the dangerous ‘effect uponindustry of dropping one of the precious metals from the standard of value, outweighs in my mind all the theoretical objections to the bimetallic system.“ these establishments to exist; also for pro- tecting ‘‘fence’’ houses because the pro- prietors sometimes aid in the capture of thieves.

Bittinger defended the majority, which strangely sandwiched the judges and the residential electors between the State of- cers. Jim Moore of Laclede, a Filleyite, plead- ed for the minority. Moore sai the order of nominations arranged by the majority was irregular, and he thought there must be Something behind it. Wurman of St. Louis County, another Filleyite, spoke for the majority. It was developed that the majority re- port was made in the interest of Hirzel for the Supreme Court and the Kerensites fought it stiffly. A First District delegate contended that the majority report looked gravely sus- proteus. He was cheered by the Kerens peo- ple Ben Russell of Crawford defended the ma- ority, on the ground that the Democratic ational Convent on had insulted the high- est judicial body in the land, and Missouri Republicans should show their disapproba- tion of this by placing the nomination for Supreme Judge high on *he list. urther debate was cut off just when it was growing warm by a demand for the previous question.

— * ABSENCE. OF PERSONALITIES. A Characteristic & the Legal Profes- ‘gion He Would Like to See in Politics. OMAHA, Neb., July 2.—William J. Bryan addressed the Conyention of Commercial Lawyers of the United States Wednesday night as follows: “I very much regret that circumstances over which I have no absolute control have prevented my taking part in this meeting and gathering the inspiration and the in- formation which such a meeting is able to give. For about seven years I was an at- torney, and I feel yet a very keen interest in all 2 ertains to the profession of law. „J do not remember e when I de- * cided ong oe a lawyer. The determination {was made back beyond the time to which my memory runs. It was my c n pro- fession. There is one thi have always loved in the profession of the law, and it is this: that in the law’ men contend over the principle at stake without arousing those personal animosities which are some- times aroused elsewhe It.has always been a matter of great tification to me to know that lawyers could differ and op- pose each other with all the ability they possess, and yet during all the contest re- tain the toa agg pe relations. “This, as need has always impressed me, and it 4 a characteristic of the law that may well be carried into politics. When that idea is carried into agp oe we can fight our battles upon a lo plane— not battles of persons, but princip 14 men ean contend with no loss of respect for each other and no loss of affection for each other. “During the first of thos 2210 like you, was trying to fi law was. Then for six rs my object be- came 0 to find out What the law ert. to bej So that while 1 have been upon v ous sides of the law, I have been in no sition where I completely lost sight of it. In my opinion, a lawyer is a labor-saving machine. e comes in response to a de- mand. People find it more economical to employ a lawyer when they need one to represent théir interests, to present their ideas or to defend their rights than it would be for each man to be his own lawyer. It ‘is a lawyer’s duty to present to t Court the rights of his client and tho facts which represent his client’s case. And it is not his duty to attempt to secure that which his client is not entitled to. And, if I may be permitted to express an o inion on this subject, the client who would ask his attorney to secure for him more than the og to which he is entitled to under the aw has no right to complain if his lawyer tells him that he has a higher idea of his profession than the client.’ At the close of the address, the delegates clustered around Mr. Bryan to shake his hand, and claimed his attention in * manner for a quarter of an hour. SOUND MONEY DEMOCRATS. — — — The New Tork Kickers Hold Several Conferences. d NEW YORK, July 23—A conference of gold standard Democrats was held Wednes- day at the residence of William C. Whitney.

Bpecial to the Post-Dispatch. AUGUSTA, Me., July 23.—The letter of acceptance of Edward B. Winslow, Demo- cratic candidate for Governor, which will be forthcoming in a few days, will be satisfac- tory to the supporters of the national Dem- ocratic ticket and platform. The dispatch sent from Augusta last night to the effect that the State Committee had “decided that Candidate Winslew should write his letter upon the Id platform“ 18 pronounced by Chairman Hughes to be with- out the slightest foundation in fact. The matter was not even considered by the com- mittee. Chairman Hughes cordially sup- ports both platform and candidates of the national convention. There is no objection to Mr. Winslow as the candidate for Governor, the only desire being to have him clearly assert his cheer- ful acquiescence in the actien of the Chi- cago convention, NORTH .DAKOTA REPUBLICANS.

The threatening’ appearance. of last night’s thunder storm caused much un- easiness, but the fact that it resulted only in a heavy rainfall will have the effect of reassuring those timid people who, ever since the cyclone, have seen destruction in each thunder cloud that hovered above the city. The cyclone season is over, in spite of @ recent “cloud burst” im Kentucky. We are apt to have heavy rains during the , Summer, but the time to expect danger- ous winds and extreme disturbances of the atmosphere js either at the spring or fall equinoxes, when the seasons are changing. St. Louls is probably safe from cyclones for another fifteen or twenty years, and by that time the extended forest growth and other chatiges that affect climatic conditions may have made cyclones in this region impossible.

Like the far-seeing statesman that he was, Mr. Lincoln perceived that in our silver and gold mines lay hidden the wealth that would repair the ravages of the war and make this country the treasury of the world” — i ot ee POPULIST PLATFORM-MAKING. - The platform to be adopted by thé Populist convention should be as care- fully considered as the nominations. Patriotic conservatism is just as impor- tant in the one as in the other. It will be self-stultifying, for example, if the Populists nominate or indorse Bryan, and at the same time ask him to stand upon a platform which he cannot consistently pt. duce an element of discord and confusion into the campaign which ought to be care- fully avoided. For one thing, it could be charged with good show of reason that in nominating Bryan on a platform which he could not accept, bad faith had been shown, and in a political campaign the suspicion of bad faith amo those who are ostensibly, working together ſs hardly less infurious thaw open antag- onism. Before the assembling Bf the Chicago ‘convention, a very strong element in the Populist’ as well as in the Democratic party was in favor of fighting the cam- paign of 1896 on the single issue of the free This issue was made paramount im thé Democratic platform, and the other planks added to it are such as honest and sincege Populists ought to find no difficulty in mdorsing. At any rate, if the Populists insist upon ooinage ot silver. suggests that they do not make it \so j radically different from’ the’ Democratic platform that a genuine union of forces will be impossible. — WHY WOT ‘PULLMAN * We are unable, to, understand why. the National Republican Finance Com- mittee for the Chicago headquarters of. that party. The list includes nearly all the other mémbers of ‘what is ‘known in Chicago as the Pullman crowd,” There are Phil Armour, Charley Far- well, George E. Adams, John J. Mitchell, Jr., H. G. ‘Belfridge, J. Frank Aldrich, E. G. Keith, H. E. Higginbotham and so many others of the neighbors of Pullman along the Lake Shore drive that it must have been a matter of design that Pull man himself escaped. We can under- stand why Franklin MacVeagh, another Lake Shore millionaire and friend of Pullman, was not included, although he is as much for McKinley as any of them. But Pullman, who sat at the right hand of McKinley last February at the Mar- quette Club dane should be on that committee. Doubtless he is a party to the naw tion which left him off “for the good of the party.” And doubtless his contribu- tion to the McKinley campaign fund will be large and juicy. THE NEWS THAT DOES NOT COME. Although the great news and press as- sociations distort and suppress news, and although the “metropolitan press“ be- comes a party to such distortion and sup- pression, the truth prevails. Hastern newspapers received by mail bring the news that last Wednesday night Faneuil Hall, in Boston, was the thusiastic demonstrations in its history, in ratification of the ticket and platform of the Chicago Convention. George Fred Williams, the Massachusetts delegate to that convention, who voted and spoke for piiver, received a tremendous ovation. No report of this remarkable meeting, in that historic old temple of liberty, was sent out by the news associations. The character of the demonstration can be. {judged from a report in a New York gold paper, which says that for ten min- utes after Mr. Williams stepped upon the platform “the cradle of liberty rocked with the shouts of the va, Saag of frge silver in Boston.” N An overflow meeting of ‘maids thou- sand was also addressed by Mr. Willlams, no said: Lombard street will shudder hen it hears that historic Faneuil Hall has declared for free silver.“ Other orators recalled the sacred and historic associations of the spot. The Faneuil Hall meeting, was a part of the news that | does not come, Eastern people also have neavy mort- gage debts... There are mortgagors as well as mortgageés up there. Let the mortgagors of the East and the mort- eagors of the West get. together this year. A great political party hes taken up the strange task of making money scarcer, and it is important that all debtors as well as honest creditors should work together for the common 8 good, It is not a bad thing if the Hastern goldbugs have been scared up to getting gold for the Treas reserve, but their generosity will be only for election pur- poses, After the election and a goldbug victory, the Treasury will again be at mercy and we shall have a repeti- tion of the disgraceful financial proceed- ings we have witnessed under the present Administration. ns The New Tork Herald m may rest el est is not troubling itself as to how New York will vote in the election.

But the fault of what. is lacking lies with me and not with her.“ There is a movement in Pittsburg to erect a monument to Stephen Collins Foster, the song writer, who was born in that city.

LIVERPOOL, July .22.—Mr. Richard Croker and hie friends suffered a severe d- appointment in the result of the race for She Liverpool Cup, of 1,200 sovereigns, to-day. The Americans had been planning a big coup for this race, and Mr. Croaker, it is said, fully expected that Rey del Santa Anita would win even agszins? the field containing such a crack as the 8-year-old Canterbury Pilgrim, and help hm to make good all the losses and ex- nses of his stable here. Mr. ichael F. Dwyer arrived a fortnight ago and ever since that time has been backing Santa Anita steadily. There were eight starters. In the betting Santa Anita and Paris were equal favorites, at 3 to against. Lord Derby's 3-year-old, Cantertury Pil- rim, won the Liverpool Cup.

Batted Out Yesterday’s Game in the Last Half of the Ninth By a nice batting rally in the last half of the ninth inning the Browns won yester- Gay's game from the Phillies by a score of 8 to 7. Up to the time the 83. Louis team to bat the Quakers were one run in the It was the most exciting contest that has Deen seen on the home grounds this season. Wihen.the ninth inning opened it looked as if the Browns were hopelessly beaten. Tay- lor, who had superseded Gumber: in the fifth inning, was pitching steadily, and the approaching rainstorm rendered it dark and giowering. It appeared almost impossible to see the fast ones Taylor was sending in, much less to hit them. Bus the Browns got on to them, and with two men out, the * score tied and Murphy on second, Dowd won — game with a slashing Hner to right cen- r. It was a stern chase for the Quakers, and they sailed well. The Browns had six runs to their credit before the Phillies had one.

Says Yesterday’s Game Was the Hard- est He Ever Played In. ‘“To-day’s game was the hardest I ever took part in,“ said Theodore Breitenstein last evening. The heat was something awful. The sun was fearful strong, the air humid and not a breath of air was stirring. The perspiration rolled off me in rivulets. It wet the ball.and made it greasy. Every time I held the sphere for any period the perspiration rolled down my fingers onto the ball. Then when it hit Morgan Mur- dt mitt it sank in a puddle of sweat. hat made it worse, and it was very hard to control. Once or twice I could not put it where I wanted it, and that nearly cost us the game.’ “Take Delehanty’s two doubles. Well, I know he got them on lew balls. I knew he is death to a low ball and tried to keep it high, but what can you do when you are weak with heat and have a 1 ry ball? Then I could not get it over to Ellis, a weak batter, and one Es oe and went where Dick Cooley wanted it. In all these cases I knew the ball would be hit as soon as I saw it sail up to the plate. We should have had three runs we didn't get. A little sacrificing would have helped us when we were ahead. Because we were five runs to the good we thought we could take chances and hit it out. Did you see the crowd jump on to Roger Connor for missing my throw of Hallman’s bunt? Well, it was my fault. The bunt was a good one and I had to field it quickly. I shot it.to Roger. In my hurry I took a poor grip on it. It curved away from Roger and he was not to blame. It was the same way with Morgan Murphy's bad throw. I was pitching care- fully with the greasy ball and then I let the runner get a bigger start than I gen- erally do. Therefore Morgan had to get the ball away in a hurry and hard. Add to this the fact that the ball was greasy and you will see how easy it was to err, * we won and that makes it all right.“ Generous Breitenstein. He never wants anybody to take blame for any error or misplays he makes. He Offers $50 to Any St. Louis Pitcher Who Beats Baltimore. Yesterday Capt. Dowd and several of the St. Louis players received letters signed, “A Wealthy Admirer,’ that any pitcher or . who beat Baltimore in me coming ser- es would receive a gift of $50 from him (the writer). The mysterious ¢rank gives no possible clew to his identity and while the players would like to know him they are perfectly willing to go ahead and zake the chances. Breitenstoin is in receipt of one of these letters. I would like to earn that $50, as it would be easy money. I 2 do my best any- how and if I win and don’t receive it I will have the satisfaction of knowing that I did my duty.“ * — * as if — 2 8 of the rowns has caus t. uls to fee much like Baltimore. 9 Club Standing.

That's the way to play base ball. Turn every possible trick. Roger put up a tall game. His hitting was immense, and that error was not his. Breit takes that upon himself. Cooley, Mertes and Ellis are good men, but somehow or other the Phillies’ batting order does not look so powerful as when it read Hamilton, Turner, Delehanty, Thomp- son, Cross, Sullivan, Brouthers, Clements and Taylor. That was a team to strike a pitcher dead. Turner and Sullivan were out for it ves- terday. Both got in their hits and played the field well. When Turner singled and stole second on Taylor and Grady, he was nearly crazy with delight. He waltzed all around the -base, but when he started for third on a half passed ball and then tried to return to second, Grady threw him out. Ellis, the Phillies’ new shortstop, spiked Tuck in the play. The spike of his shoe sank deep in Turner’s shin and he was a lame man last night. He will he ready for Baltimore to-morrow. Joe zune good arm nelped things yes- terday. Joe is not feeling well at that. He was. quite sick last night. . Meyers played a stout game yesterday, but he did not hit with his usual vigor. Tom Parrott slaughtered the ball when a hit was needed, but he failed to back up second on throws from the plate. Come on, Tom, wake up, wake up. This thing of fel- lows scoring from first on a wild throw has got to stop. Delehanty ran all the way from first to the plate on Murphy's poor throw to catch him at second. ome of the old players ever remember seeing such a play before. The heat yesterday was simply unbeara- ble. All the players felt it. Gumbert was completely knocked out. The sultriness was fearful, the sun poured down his rays like a cataract of molten lead and there was not a breath of air stirring. The spec- tators in the grandstand were almost as badly off as the players. Emslie is the boss umpire. He runs a ball game right. Poor Dick Cooley was in a bad way yester- day. He could not even knock a grounder off Breitenstein in his first Your times at bat. Eventually he did manage to place a little single past third. Dowd’s judgment in 8 Douglas to the bat instead of Breitenstein is open to question. Doug is a good “‘pinch’’ hitter, but Breit is hitting the ball as hard as any of them. Then, if the game had been but tied, a new pitcher would have to go in. As Breit was warmed up and pitchin good ball, he was the best man to pu in the box. “What was the reason you let Sullivan and Turner go?” asked a Post-Dispatch. man of Al Reach yesterday. Well,“ said the magnate, I had no fault to find with them, but the Philadelphia papers demand- ed that they be let go, and as our home papers have been a bulwark of the national game in Philadelphia and elsewhere, I dis- pont of Sullivan and Turner just to please hem. I do not think that litvan’s su- erior as a ball player exists, and Turner s little, if any, his inferior,” All of which conduced to the belief that if Mr. Reach lets a lot of disgruntled reporters run his —— for him, he won't have any by next r. Joe Campbell, the fat boy with the siege of Paris imagination, writes the following for the Washington Post: the story is going the rounds that Breitenstein. is playing for his release by picching indi?- ferent ball. Unprejudic player... how- ever, are of a different opinipn. They ray that the famous southpaw: has lost his speedy ball. Considering that on, two oc- cesions this season Breitenstein has prac- tically shut out the nators, and that with their crack pitcher, the 'ovely, sulkin Mercer, in the box, this is rich.

Alarming But Groundless Story His Wife Told the Police. The Police Department has started an in- vestigation into the mysterious disappear- ance of Percival Adams, the Four Courts attorney, who has not been seen since Tuesday. Mrs. Adams, who lives at 1512 Walnut street, called on Capt. O'Malley of the Central Police District at noon Thursday and related the c'rcumstances of the exit of Mr. Adams, and then added the startling information that he was lying on his k dead on the second floor of the grain ele- vator in Venice, III., w.th three bullet holes through his body ina 4 a revolver by his side. When Mrs. Adams repeated the statement there was more excitement than usual about police headquarters. But when Mrs. Adams told how she came by at informa- tion the excitement subsided. Mr. Adams had sot been seen since Tues- day, and as he had never been away from home before, she became worried. Thurs- day evening she called on Joe Brusher, a 10-year-old trance medium, at 214 South Fif- teenwh street, and he told her about her husband committing suicide in the grain el- evator in Venice and of the three bullet holes and the revolver. She believed him and was desirous that the Police Department send over to Venice and remove the body to her home. While the police do not place any confi- dence in the report of Adams’ tragic suicide they will, nevertheless, inv 2 it as this is the first information t ey have had of the attorney's s disappearance.

Cameron, a wagon maker in the employ of the Timken Carriage Co., at Second and Branch streets, was released from the Work-house Tuesday, after having served a year for assault with intent to kill. Cameron lives near Twelfth and Palm streets. He has considerable to say re- garding the treatment and punishment ac- corded prisoners at the city’s penal institu- tion, John Lawler is the first prisoner of whom Cameron speaks. Lawler threw pepper in a little girl’s eyes in a bakery, on Grand avenue, two months ago, and. was fined a sum sufficient to keep him in the Work- house nine months. “Lawler came into the place not accus- tomed to work and he Was immed .ately placed on the rock pile in the quarry,” said Cameron. “Each mah has to crush five loads of stone à day, @ task impossible for a new man to accomplish. “Lawler tried hard to do the work, but he couldn’t. Iie got such b. 8 blisters on h. s hands that he couldn’? hold a hammer, and of course, could not do the work. The guards led Lawler into the tool shed in a corner of the quarry, where they tied the end of a rope about his wrists and then Strung bm up, the rafters in the roof, fle h’s feet were off tof the stone floor, one of the guards beat him over the back with a cane, drawing blood at each blow “Lawler wad not the only prisofer. to re. ceive that punishment for his inability to do two men's “Richard Waters and a man named Por- ter were both strung up and beaten because neither of them could crush five loads of stoneina Cameron's narrative of his own treatment is perhaps the most horrible. He shared cell 7 with an old man who was sent to the „Works“ for a heinous offense, “My cell mate was dirty and slovenly and would not clean up the cell, He he ept on a cot above mine,“ Cameron said, dur- ing the night he ‘would spit and Bing and the refuse would come down on me. One night I could stand it no longer, and 1 Pet up and licked the old man. I didn’ t urt him much and left no bruises on him. “The guards, Ike Peters, Came to my cell and dragged me out. They beat and hammered me all the way down to the row of cells of solitary con- f hréw me into the dungeon Hamilton struck me in the mouth with his fist and split my lips wide open. “Of course, I swore at him. I could not help it. There is not much man in a fellow if he would not resent such treatment, Then they got a heavy cane with a steel rod run- ning Circus it and, after one of them had bared my back, the other applied the club. I do not know how long they continued the beating. I became unconscious and when I awoke I was locked in a dark and damp ye through which there came no ray of t. K My back was bleeding in a dozen places, and I was used up. I thought I was dying. There was not even a bench in the cell, and I was compelled to lie on the cold iron floor. I got a crust of bread twice a day, with a cup of warm water. I was kept there des weeks. „The scabs from the wounds on my back fell off only a few days ago, and the scars are still there. “The place is the dirtiest on earth. Noth- ing could be worse. We could not sleep for the vermin which covered the walls o cells and infested the beds. No effort, is made to abate the pest and the numbers are increasing each day. If I thought that I had to serve another year in that place I would commit suicide.”’ A Post-Dispatch reporter called at the Workhouse to see if the stories told by Cameron were correct. e was deniei ad- mission and was unable to see Zuperiaten i- ent Karr or any of the guards. The man who had charge of the entrance said he wouldn't allow President Cleveiand inside the place unless he went there to serve time, and that reporters would be re- celved only as prisoners.

The middle-of-the-road Populists are fa- vorable to Debs, and through Victor L. Berger and Henry D. Lloyd telegraphed him to come here. He replied that he would try to do so. That was Tuesday. Mr, Debs has not arrived; he is not com- — f ing. Mr. Debs Is for William Jennings Bryan for President.

Patrick McKenna made a desperate break for liberty at the City Hospital Wednesday night, and it was only after a severe struggle and numerous bricks had been hurled through windows and cons‘d- erable furniture was demolished that he was overcome by the hospital guards. McKenna had been picked up on the street by a policem served acting queer and taken to the Cit Sutter said he had delirium tremens. McKenna is a powerful fellow, about 0 years old, six feet tall and exceedingly muscular. While he was in the reception room and was being held by Guards Spohn and Huelsman, he conceived the idea of escap- ing. fie ave vent to an unearthly yell, and tening his arms, knocked both guards down. He then made a dash through the open door. Night Nurse Chism, who was in the room, gave chase, closely n ae SOS guards, who had re- ain their feet. oll along the route chosen by McKenna there was a plentiful supply of bricks, which had been left by the masons who were mak- ing some repairs. He gathered his arms full as he ran, and hurled them at his pur- suers, who were kept busy dodging them. Some of the missiles broke a dozen panes of glass in the window of the reception room, and smashed some of the furniture. The guards managed to evade the misstles and crowded McKenna until he exhauste his supply of bricks. Three more guards came to their assistance, and at the outer gate they surrounded the crazed man. It was only after a powerful effort that he was overcome and bound. He was strapped and carried into a cell.

Manion, ac- cording to the friends of his children, is to be followed by a contest over the property. Mr. Manion died possessed of a large for- tune. Besides the widow, three children by his first wife survive him. They are P. P. Manion, Jr., Charles J. Manion and Mrs. Kate Meyer. While it is yet unknown what disposition, if any, was made by the deceased by will, the friends of Mr. Manion’s children state that they will contest any attempt to turn the property over to Mrs. Manion or to give her any share until their claims have been satisfied. . 0 This statement is based upon the assertion that Mr. Manion married wealthy when 19 years old and that the property left by him had belonged to his first wife, who was Miss Jane Reilly before marriage. On this account, it is stated, the children of Mr. Manion claim to have a better right to the property than Mrs. Manion. The * marriage of Mr. Manion, it is stated, was bitterly opposed by his children, so bitterly that afterward their intercourse with the second Mrs. Manion was of the most formal character. When Mr. P. P. Manion, Jr., was told by a Post-Dispatch reporter the statements made by friends he declined to discuss the matter. The funeral of Mr. Manion took place Thursday morning from the late residence of the deceased, 3837 West Pine boulevard, to St. Xavier’s Church, thence to Calvary Cemetery. It was largely attended and was directed by the Knights of St. Patrick, a band of music accompanying the remains to the grave. Requiem mass was celebrated by Fr. Bronsgeest. The active pall-bearers were: Joseph P. Whyte, C. C. Carroll, John Finn, Silas Demain, George Bransford, Hunter Ben Jenkins, Capt. I. M. Mason and Capt. H. Brolaski. Following were the honorary pall-bearers: Given Camprell, Col. Jos. P. McCullagh, Capt. John N. Boffinger, Col. D. R. Powell, Capt. Aaron B. Hall, Joseph Miller, Cor- nelius Lynch, Chas. E.

NO MORE FANCY WEDDINGS IN THE EVENING. A BLOW AT CHOIR SINGERS. Roman Catholic Synod to Pass On Several Changes in the Rules of the Church. The Roman Catholic clergy of the diocese of St. Louis are engaged in earnest study of proposed church laws. as They will assemble in a synod at Ken- rick Seminary, Sept. 8, to pass on the little book of laws, and decide whether they shall become operative. ; The statutes to be acted on were drafted by a committee of priests learned in the legal lore of the church. They were ap- pointed by Archbishop Kain and were en- gaged at the task for several months. The little pamphlet, containing the pro- posed statutes, is jealously guarded by the priests, for on the cover is the injunction: “Priests are warned not to let this fall into the hands of the lal by order of the Most Rev. Archbishop; illiam Faerber, President of the Preparation Committee. The command is in Latin, as is the entire book of laws. The Archbishop’s reason for this order is that he wishes the priests in whom the law-making power resides when assembled in Synod, to use their own judg- ment in passing on the statutes, unbiased by the expressions of their flocks. But as the little blue-covered pamphlet contains mat- ters of deep interest, the Post-Dispatch se- cured access to a copy for the benefit of iis readers. The proposed laws are classified under five general headings, each forming a chapter. On the cover is the title, “Matters to Be Proposed at the Third Synod of St. Louis.“ Incidentally it may be said that the first synods were not held within the memory of the present generation of local Catholics, On the first page is a list of the members of the Preparation Committee, which drafted the laws. They are: Frs. Brown, Faerber, Fenlon, Fitzpatrick Gafron, Gol- ler, Grimmelsman, Hanley, Hessoun, Hoi- weck, Kenrick, McCabe, May, Shea, Tobyn, Walsh and Ziegler. . The general introductory law is that the decrees of the Third. Plenary Council of Baltimore and of the first synods of this“ diocese and of the provincial councils are to be of full force. The first chapter is entitled The Divine Worship,” and under it are sections on the sacred ceremonies, the sacrifice of the mass, preaching, funerals. Present general laws on these topics are merely restated and no innova- tions are proposed. The second chapter relates to the sacra- ments of baptism, confirmation, holy eu- charist, penance, extreme unction and holy orders. As to these the laws now in force are re-enacted and restated. The third chapter is of special interest to the daity. It is devoted to the sacrament of matrimony and gives rules for marriages. Perhaps the rule of most moment to Cath- olics is that marriages must be celebrated at nuptial mass except by special leave of the A As evening weddings are very much in favor among society people who belong to St. Alphonsus’, St. Fran- cis Xavier’s and a number of other West End parishes, the ban placed upon 5 o’clock marriages will cause much sor- row in the hearts of belles and beaux who have looked forward to stately ceremonials in the early evening. The rule is stated thus: “If it should happen that for grave reasons marriage should be celebrated without mass, then it should be done without any ceremony or show, and with only two candles.“ The brilliant illumination of churches, the banks of flowers and plants, trained choirs and all the other features of after- noon weddings will be things of the past if this proposed rule becomes law, as it likely will. Néither upper tendom nor the members of the lower strata of society will care to be mated in church im the adternoon if only two wax candies are to cast light upon their adornments, and illuminate the bridal procession. Following this rule is the further one: „We also direct that under no circumstances should marriages be celebrated after 5 o’clock in the af ternooon.“ It is & matter of general knowledge that while marriages, especially among wealthy Catholics have been announced for 5 o’clock of late years at the request of the Serer tae carriages have rarely rolled up to the church doors sooner than 6 o’clock. The fourth chapter is styled “Concerning the Proper Training of the Young.” The rules relate to parish schools and one of the principal regulations is as follows: “A school must be built in any parish where a school does not at present exist, within two years from the promulgation of these decrees, unless the bishop, for grave reasons judges that it should not be erect- ed. The priest who for that period delays the erection and maintenance of a school or does not heed repeated warnings of the bishop will merit removal from his church.“ This rule if passed and rigidly ‘enforced, as many priests believe it will be, will cause a flurry in many parishes where there are not schools, unless the pastors 3 Archbishop Kain that none are need. ed. The fifth chapter concerns the care of and zeal for souls, and takes up secret so- cieties, the singing of Catholics in Protest. ant choirs and other topics. . The secret society clause affirms the rule of the church which forbids Catholics to join the Free Masons under pain of ex- communication, and then adds: “No one is ignoran? that the Knights of Pythias, Odd Fellows and Sons of Temper- ance are condemned.

As to the presence of Catholic singers in Protestant churches the rule laid down is: “They sin grieviously who for the sake of gain sing or play musical instruments in Protestant churches.“ If this clause receives the approval of the synod, its enforcement will cause consider- able trouble, The Catholic churches do not pay their singers, while churches give handsome members of their choirs. h caused some Catholics to accept positions in Protestant churches.

N This same chapter forbids several things which of late years have n popular in Catholic churches. Among them are ex- Catholic vhurches. Among them are ex- cursions and festivals at which liquor is sold and concerts in churches for which an admission fee is charged. The decrees in their present form have the approval of Archbishop Kain. They require the votes of a magority of all the priests in the diocese to become binding. A MOB OF WOMEN. Enraged Negresses Wanted the Blood of an Assailant of Children. Frank Eyre, 29 years old, a painter who came from Chicago a week ago, had a nar- row escape from death at the hands of enraged negro women in the rear of 904 Market street Wednesday night. He was discovered in an out-house with Cornelia Thornton and Lavergne Smith, 5- year-old colored girls, by the mother of the Thornton child. She attacked him with her fists and was soon assisted by the mother of the other child. In a few minutes a mob of negroes th- ered about Eyre and he would have fared badly but for the arrival of Policaman Maher. He took Eyre and the children to the Dispensary, followed by an angry crowd. The children were found to be un- harmed. Eyre was taken to the Four Courts in safety. WITH ANOTHER MAN.

The Chairman Wears a Bryan Badge and Is Enthusiastically in Favor of Indorsement. . 1 1 0 * The Populist Committee on Platform met at the Lindell Hotel immediately after its appointment. Gen. J. B. Weaver of Iowa was elected chairman over Hon. Jerome Kirby of Tex- as, the vote being 22 to A in Gen. Weaver's favor. Upon taking the chair, Gen. Weaver con- gratulated Mr. Kirby upon being so nearly on a parity with himself. He continued his speech by saying that the money question was everywhere considered paramount in the present*campeign and the People’s party had made it such. This question had split the two old par- ties, and there was no doubt of the oppor- tunity presented to the Populists. He deseribed the demands of the party on this question as being the free and un- Umited coinage of silver, the issuance of legal tender paper money and the aboli- tion of the national banks. | 5 He said the transportation question was also essential as was the question of the election oft United States Senators by the people. While he felt, he said, like congratulat- ing the Democrats upon their recent ac- tion, He wanted to say that he believed the People’s party should plant itself on its. own platform. He was for the principles of the party first, and for the party autonomy next, but he desired.that it be understood that he did not 2 to give up either.

Assistant Secretary. The committee decided upon the appoint- ment of five sub-committees of five eac Pe finance, transportation, lan pe direct legislation, and authorized the chairman to make the selections, The com- mittee then took a recess unt! 2 o'clock. The selection of Gen. Weaver as chairman was a Bryan victory. Gen. Weaver ts chairman of the Bryan caucus and wore a Bryan badge when he took the chalk. 5 TRAGEDY AT CINCINNATI.

Bb WALKER FALLS From a Third-Story Window, Receiv- ing Injuries From Which He May Die. + ; Wilidm Bergman, 55 years old, walked in his sleep Thursday morning and fell from a third-story window of the Hotel Nolte, at 2556 University street, sustaining injuries which it is thought will be fatal. Bergman was employed at the hotel as porter and occupied a room on the third floor. He retired at about 10 o’clock Wed- nesday night, leaving the window in his room opéi At een Thursday morning the gentleman occupying the room on the ground floor directly under the one in which Bergman slept, was sitting by the window reading, when he heard a human body strike on the pavement near him. He looked out and saw the bo@y of the porter, clad in underclothes, lying in a heap on the aidewalk. He summoned assis- tance and Bergman was carried into the hotel, but he was soon removed to the City Hospital. Dr. Sutter thought that while no bones were broken the man had re- ceived internal injuries which would proba- bly result in his death. Bergman says that he has often walked in his sleep and that he probably walked out of the Window this time. THE POOR MAN’S FRIEND. Neighbor of Bryan Tells What Man- ner of Man He Is.

AUDITORIUM WAS NOT LIGHTED. The Citizens’ Committee Forgot to Or- der the Hall Lighted and Ad- journment Was Necessary. The Pops had a hard time of it Wednes- day night. They were left to flounder around in utter darkness at the Auditori- um until they were obliged to adjourn the session until Thursday forenoon without doing a thing. A scene of the greatest confusion pre- valled. At one time there was danger of a panic. Delegates stumbled about and fell over each other in the dark and cursed everyone they thought could have possibly had anything to do with the state of af- fairs. The Middle of the Road men, who had gathered an hour in advance of the time for the convention to reconvene, in order to caucus, were wild about it. They denounced it as a deliberate plot on the part of the Bryanites to delay ac- ‘as the delegates began ene err 8.

They aoa lights and called for the Sergeant-at-Arm He was not about and his neubatherts did not know what to do. It grew darker. It was impossible to zee across the convention hall floor. The delegates grew turbulent. The lead- ers could not restrain them. They had that panicky feeling which comes to crowds in the dark when their surroundings are strange and mysterious.

They jeered at “Cyclone” 823 when he tried to tell them that the storm had affected the wires. The band played as though to stop meant eath. 4275151 was the only tune that could rouse the angry men into a semblance of enthusiasm. They felt that they had been tricked. They knew it was a diabolical scheme and it was hard to hold them in control. By and by Senator Butler came. He ad- journed the convention still in darkness and the disgusted, suspicious Middle of the Road men scrambled out as best they ‘could, vowing all sorts of vengeance. Frank Gaiennie of the Citizens’ Commit- tee during all this hubbub was out at his house. He wandered downtown to the Ex- position building about 8 o’clock. Here he found that the silver men had long since ad- journed. Then he meandered over to the Audito- » “CYCLONE” DAVIS AS AN OASIS OF LIGHT.

The truth of the matter is that the dark- ness resulted from negleet on the part of the Citizens’.

The Democratic ratification meeting at Music Hall Saturday night promises to be a demonstration of popular enthusiasm un- paralleled in the city’s history. From every precinct come assurances of support and the larger wards will make imposing turnouts. to co-operate have responded cheerfully and will send large and representative dele- gations. It is estimated that they will rally a thous- and strong to do honor to the Democratic standard bearers. The Bland Club, preceded by a band of thirty pieces will march to the hall in a body, carrying transparencies. Marching clubs will also be sent from the First, Second, Fourth, Thirteenth, Seven- tee ntieth and Twenty-second wards. The Jefferson Club will hold a meeting Friday night with the view to arranging for a large representation of that true- blue Democratic organization. It ie certain that Music Hall will be un- able to accommodate the rally and arrange- ments are being made for overflow meet- ings. The R at Music Hall will be called to order by Judge Frank M. Estes, Chair- man of the Committee of Arrangements, who will call Col. Charles H. Jones to pre- Me as permanent Chairman. Following a brief address by the per- manent 8 a chorus of thirty male volces will sing a new and stirring cam- paign song, entitled, No Crown of Thorns, no Cross of Gold The following distinguished gentlemen will then address the convention: Senators Vest and Cockrell, Hon. R. P. Biand, Gov. William J. Stone Hon. Norman J. Colman, Hon. Charles P. Johnson. These names give assurance of a feast of eloquence, and the unterrified Democracy before them may be relied to make the vast auditorium vibrate with their applause. The note of victory for Democracy is in the air, and the battle of the masses against the classes will be inaugurated with a rush that bodes ill for the enemies of silver. — That Mr. Bland will certainly be present is attested by the following telegram: “LEBANON, Mo., July 23.—Col. C. H. Jones, Post- Dispatch, St. Louls, Mo.: Will be with you Saturday night. R. P. BLAND.” Burlington Route to Montana. A COLORED FAGIN. A Negro Teaching a Boy the Art of Burglary. CHICAGO, July 23.—The police are inves- tigating a strange story just told them by 16-year-old Arthur Peterson. Young Peter- gon was arrested on the lake front Moses St. Clair, colored, 54 years old, who was with the boy, was also arrested and locked up. At the police station he refused to talk, but the boy told Sergt. Murphy that in St. Paul, his native city, he met St. influence over him. Less ago, young Peterson said, he came to Chicago with St. Clair, who told the boy, so the latter said, that if he attempted to leave bim or told anyone about reatment he. 4 N he would kill him. * we went out to Oak said young Peterson, mitted 28 number of burglaries in each place. St. Clair compelled me to assist him in these biretarian telling me what to do. We got conside rable valuable property, which St. Clair disposed of, and then we went to New York. There we com- mitted one burglary. We did not realize very much from it, and St. Clair thought we had better come back to Chicago. We rrived in Chicago several days ago, and I — been watchtng for an opportunity to get away — St. Clair. In the Middle of the Street. This may be all right for those who like it. We live in a free country, but the part who adopt this watch word can never loo for the support of the women of America— — know the good things are on one side, this time it is the West Side (note, the West is always in it), and that no mistake may be made it is on the corner of Broad- way and ranklin avenue, where ,you would think the woman’s convention was in session there. However, such is not the case, but orton of much more import- ance is now transpiring there, viz., the saie of the salvage stock of the great New York house of C. A. Auffmordt & Co., whose im- mense stock of highest grade black and colored dress goods was bought at auction by Penny & Gentles, and is now being sold a them at 28 cents on the dollar. The black silk and wool goods, such as crepons, Sk and novelties, are the marvels of — dry goods. Don’ 't miss this sale. See in this issue. FASTED FIVE MONTHS.
