July 31.—The delphia at 6:40 o’clock Thursday evening for Atlantic City, crashed into a Pennsyl- vania Railroad excursion train at the sec- ond signal tower, four miles out from here. The Pennsylvania train was returning to Bridgeton with a party of excursionists from that place, Millville and neighboring towns. It was loaded with passengers, of whom 42 were killed and 43 injured.

Finally ten minutes was given Atkison and he said that at St. Louis the hand of the tyrant was on the throat of Populism and choked off its speech..

KING OF ENGLAND. 15 ‘ AN OLD RUMOR REVIVED. Great Britain’s Ruler Feels the Weight of Her Years and Be- reavements. LONDON, July 31.—The rumor that Queen Victoria intends to retire in favor of the Prince of Wales is again. current to-day, and it is added that court circles are great- ly troubled regarding the condition of the Queen's health. Such reports have fre- quently appeared in rec@ht years, only to be semi-officially contradicted later, But it now secms that there may be some actual foundation for the statements made, It is said that the Queen has decided to spend her time in future at Balmoral or at Osborne, and that she will give the Prince and Princess of Wales the use of Bucking- ham Palace and Windsor Castle. There is ro doubt that the Queen seems to feel greatly the weight of her years and bereavements, and she is quoted as having repeatedly rémarked during her stay in this city, at Buckingham Palace, upon the occasion of the recent marriage of Princess Maud ot Wales to Prince Charles of Den- mark: “This is my last visit to London.” Color is given the rumors in circulation by the deep emotion displayed by the Queen 3s she bowed in response to the en- thusiastic cheers of the multitude which lined the route from Buckingham Palacé to the railread station, where she took the train fer Windsor, after the marriage cere- mony. TURKEY AND GREECE. The Porte Passively Awaits a Reply to the Powers. NEW YORK, July 31.—A special to the Herald from Constantinople says: The Porte is passively awaiting the reply to the representations made by the powers to Greece. The Porte has prepared two notes, one to Greece, mildly drawing attention to Greece’s neutrality, the other, more strong- ly worded, to the six powers, expressing reliance upon their efforts. An official denial is given to the rumor that Turkey intends to revert to a paper currency. Chamberlain May Preside. LONDON, July 81.—The Times asserts that the hope is growing that Mr. Chamber- lain will himself preside over the select com- mittee to inquire into the administration of Rhodesia and into the origin and circum- stance? of the Jameson raid. Coffee Exports Suspended. NEW YORK, July 31.—A special to the Herald from Buenos Ayres says: Owing to the fall in the price of coffee, exports from, Brazil to the United States have been sus- pended.

Last of the Murderers of Artist Atwa- ter Before a Jury at Clayton. The taking of testimony in the case of John Schmidt, the last of the trio accused of murdering Artist Bertram A. Atwater of Chicago at Webster Groves, Jan. 23, be- gan at Clayton Friday morning. The evi- dence against the defendant was much the same as was a@fuced at the trials of his nephew, “Cotton!’ Schmidt, and their negro accomplice, Sa Foster, who have been condemned to death. It is likely that John Schmidt’s case will go to the jury Saturday evening. Mr. Atwater, a distinguished artist of Ohicago, was engaged to Miss Genevieve Orton, a beautiful young lady, whose home is at Webster Groves. On the evening of Jan. 23 he went from t. Louis to Webster to visit her and when e alighted from the train at the station „Cotton“ Schmidt offered to carry his satchel. Mr. Atwater hired him and en- tered a bafber shop, directing Schmidt to return and carry the satchel for him to the Orton residence. While Mr. Atwater was being shaved „Cotton“ Schmidt went to a saloon and met John Schmidt and Sam Foster. It was agreed that John and Sam would wWaylay r. Atwater on a footbridge over a ravine in the roadway, near H. L. Wilson’s resi- dence. “Cotton” returned to the barber shop and taking the satchel started with Mr. At- water for the Orton residence, Cotton“ dropped behind when they neared the bridge and John Schmidt and Sam Foster spran from a place of concealment, levele weapons at Mr. Atwater and demanded money. The brave man drew a revolver and as he did so either John Schmidt or Foster fired at him without effect. Mr. Atwater re- turned the fire, badly wounding John Schmidt. Foster then fired’ twice and killed Mr. Atwater almost instantly. „Cotton“ Schmidt and Foster were caught a few days later and narrowly escaped lynching. They confessed their part in the crime. Held Up a Stranger. James Ryan was arrested early Friday morning charged with holding up Charles Schmidt, a stranger in the city, and robb.ng him of $150 in the rear of the saloon at 119 South Seventh street ursday night.

A Released Prisoner Gives a Detailed Account of the Cruelties He Witnessed and Endured. Ever since Superintendant Nicholas Karr of the Work House has had charge of that institution its doors have been closed against all save city officials and prisoners. By applying to Mayor Walbridge's Secre- tary for permits, visitors are enabled to see friends in custody at the Workhouse. This was the method under the former admin- istration, but at that time newspaper rep- resentatives desiring to investigate charges of brutality at the institution or interview prisoners on other matters were given free access. Supt. Karr has established a new rule, which bars representatives of the public press from the institution even when pro- vided with a pass from the Mayor's Sec- retary., Without an order bearing the personal signature of Mayor Walbridge, it fs impos- sible for a newspaper representative to obtain an interview with any prisoner. Even with a personal order from Mayor Walbridge, a newspaper representative has never been able to penetrate the ingide of the Workhouse, Prisoners are brought into the office to be interviewed, so that every word can be heard by one of Mr. Karr's representatives. The reason for this is manifest from the fact that a chronological record of events at the Work-house would show scarcely a day without its act of brutality on the part of some one the guards. On account tf the extraordinary precau- tions to guard the secrets of the Work- house as close as were guarded the secrets of the Bastile, the testimony regarding the doings of the Work-house guards is neces- A ’ * 19 «Vv » * » @ 7 4 4 Bo Or TY et ene ‘ : aah “ti ng a 4 = — 13 WHIPPING FUoT. EE 1 — 2 * * * * 8 1 s sarily entirely drawn from the statements of prisoners after their release. Such testi- mony is always suspicious. But in the case of Nick Karr’s bastile these statements made from time to time by released pris- oners agree so closely in detail as to de- mand attention. ; * Complaints of prisapers of inhuman treat- ment at the hands of Work-house guards are growing more and more frequent. They began with the deuth of aeWork- house prisoner at the City Hospital who had been asgaulted and beaten a few days before by Guard Gus Krueger, because ine prisoner was too ill to work. “Are we not permitted to defend our- selves?” ask the guards, and the [nvestiga- tion ends right there. Every prisoner released from the Work- house has a tale of oppression to tell. These stories are that the whipping post has not een abolished in St. Louis; that a word or ook distasteful to a guard will win for the offender. the whipping post, or a blow irom a shotgun. The whipping post at the Workhouse is somewhat more elaborate than the one in vogue for wifé-beaters and similar offend- ers years ago. It consists of a pulley by which men are strung up by their wrists, drawn behind their backs. In this position the unhappy wretches are beaten. It has been scarcely a week since the Post-Dispatch presented a statement from one prisoner released from the Workhouse, which should have caused an immediate in- vestigation. Here is the statement of another, who kept a record of brutality at the Work- house during his tmprisonment, The young man is Henry Henney. He lives at 3026 Easton avenue, and says that before he was sent to the Work-house on March 16, on a $60 fine for disturbing the peace, he was employed in the press-room of Price Bros,’ Advertising Bulletin. Henney was released from the Work- house Thursday. He states that during three days of his term he was locked in the bull-pen.“ When he was about to be released, he states, Nick Karr at first ordered him detained three days longer for the time he lost while in the bull-pen.“ Henney says that he knows enough of law to know that having been punished once by imprisonment in the bull-pen,“ for an alleged offense, he could not legally be punished again for thé same offense by three days’ detention over his sentence. He savs when he told Nick Karr that to hold him would be similar to trying him twice for the same offense, and that trou- ble would ensue when he was finally re- leased, Karr permitted him to depart. The record kept by Henney is about as follows: June 19 a colored prisoner called “‘Jamal- ea“ was strung up under the tool shed and beaten so badly that as he was being let down he fell over. Gus Krueger then kicked him to make him arise. He finally got up with his head bleeding and staggered over to the ledge by the “bump car.” He was 82 weak that when he reached the ledge he fell over. He was permitted to lie there in @ sudden accession of mercy on the part of Krueger. ' Henney described the process of stringing up and beating. He stated that from the roof of the tool shed was suspended a puUl- ley.

June 23 Krueger was drunk. Three boys came down. the road leading te the Work- House quarry. No outsiders are allowed to descend this road. It is closed to pedes- trians and open only to the wagons of the contractors, It is a steep incline. The three boys were in a peddler’s wagon. Krue- ger ordered two of the boys off the wagon and sent them back. The road is narrow and to turn the wagon round and reascend the road, the boy who was driving was compelled to proceed to the bottom of the incline, Once there Krueger grasped the horse’s head and stopped the wagon, He then beat the boy with his cane while still on the wagon. Then he started him up the road again, When the boy was half way up he made some angry remark. Krueger caught up with the wagon and 2 the boy off. He hit him on the ead with his cane, knocking him sense- less for a moment. The boy got 7 and attempted to climb in- to the wagon. While he was doing so Kreu- ger repeatedly struck him. He continued to beat the boy after the latter had en- tered the wagon. When the boy finally reached the top of the road the shanty rar there —— him at a signal from Krueger. The boy was placed under arrest and thrust into the sick cell at the Work House. Super- intendent Karr learn f the boy’s Im- YOUR PALATE IS YOUR STOM- ACH’S CONSCIENCE.

June 30 a prisoner named Lawler, a boy, was strung up and beaten as had been done with the negro Jamaica.“ June 30, in the evening, a guard named Bob,“ stationed on the claybank, struck prisoner Red Burns on the head with his shotgun, felling him. Burns got a little out of line in the march to the dining-room. July 14 a colored boy, about 16 years old, was placed in a pond in a quarry and a large dog set on him. The boy escaped with a scratch from the dog’s teeth, but while still in the pond was beaten. He had left his rockpile, stating that he was sick from the heat.

I “WE ARE OPPOSED TO THEFRED WOINAGE OF SILVER. * * * THE EXISTING GOLD STANDARD MUST BE PRESERVED.”—Republican Plat- form. 1 — 1 te — = “— A VITAL POINT. It is an open secret that, in the coming fampaign in Missouri, it is the intention of the Republicans to concentrate their attack upon the record of the State Board of Equalization during Democratic control of the State Government. This is a vital point, and there is no Nenying that here the Democratic line is Wulnerable. It should be carefully looked _@fter next week at the State nominating convention. a As far as the farmers, property owners and taxpayers of the State are concerned, the State Board of Equalization is of far greater importance than the State offices as such. The Board is composed of the Governor, Secretary of State, Treasurer, Auditor and Attorney-General. This is why the corporation attorneys and rail- road lobbyists look so carefully after these offices. This is why they are so anklous just Row about the nomination for Attorney-General. , Under no circumstances should Mr. Morton Jourdan be nominated. He has been simply the clerk of Attorney-Gen- eral Walker, who has been a main reli- @nce of the railways on the Board of Equalization. There is no doubt what- ever that Mr. Morton Jourdan would take up the work precisely where Attorney- General Walker lays it down. It is orted of Judge Crow that he is traveling over the State on passes sup- plied by Col. Phelps. The Post-Dispatch does mot know whether or not this is so, but the report is important and should be carefully looked into by the delegates to the convention. If Judge Crow is under any obligations to the railroads or corpo- rations, he ought not to be nominated. No man should be nominated to a State office that makes him a member of the Board of Hqualization who does not give in advance satisfactory pledges as to his course while a member of that board. IT MIGHT BE WORSE. This has been a remarkable summer, Whe excessive heat we are now suffer- ing from would ordinarily have been dis- tributed through the latter part of June and the earlier days of July. We have fad heat, but only intermittently, the unusual frequency of storms and thunder showers serving to break the heat waves, increasing humidity, but holding down the mercury. Such heat as we now have is undoubt- edly more conducive to health than the changeable weather prevailing through- out the latter part of June and all of ‘ July until the present hot wave began. The mortality reports of the St.“ Louis Health Office have been exceptionally large this summer. Especially among in- fants and the aged has the mortality been marked. It 1s well to be philosophical even dur- ing a hot wave, and a little reflection and investigation will convince anyone that there could be worse weather than this. A continuance of the present wea. ther would be better for the public health than a return to the changeable and humid conditions hitherto prevailing. CLEVELAND AND CUBA. The wisdom of the action of the Chi- tago Convention in repudiating the lead- ership of Grover Cleveland has never been open to doubt. It will be con- firmed by the second proclamation of neutrality concerning Cuba just issued by the President. The Post-Dispatch has had frequent oc- that executive action in Cuban affairs is controlled by a New England syndi- cate which is to have great Cuban concessions in case the Spanish Govern- ment of the island continues. The charge has not been without circumstantial eyi- dence to support it. This proclamation will, in many quarters, be regarded as positive proof. Whatever the fact may be, there can be no doubt of the sympathy of Ameri- ‘cans for the Cuban patriots. Democrats party is in line with that popular sen- tiom by the Chicago platform, but equal- ly by its positive repudiation Cleve- land and his policies. 2 — A MATTER OF BUSINESS. The following editorial paragraph from this morning’s Republic was evidently aimed at the Post-Dispatch: A newspaper the business of which is declining while that of others is rising is unfortunate, but when it judges from its own misfortunes that a great, thriving, growing city is going to ruin it is imbecilic. That the year 1895 was, with one excep- tion, the banner busines§ year in the history of the Post-Dispatch was proved by sworn testimony in Court and the evidence of its books and bank deposits. It can be proved by precisely similar tes- timony and evidence that during the first six months of 1896, ending June 30, ike net profits of the Post-Dispatch exceed- ed by precisely $29,121.11 the profits of the corresponding six months of the year 1895. The Post-Dispatch asserts as facts and stands ready to prove the following statements: 1. This excess of the profits of the Post-Dispatch during the half year of 1896 over the half year of 1895 exceeds the total profits of the Republic during the year and a half from January 1, 1895, to June 30, 1896. 2. The Post-Dispatch’s profits during the first half of 1896 exceed the total profits of the Republic during the past three years. 8. Excluding the Globe-Democrat, the net profits of the Post-Dispatch during the first half of 1896 exceeded the net profits of all the other newspapers in St. Louis that are printed in English put together. ; The Post-Dispatch is prepared to shcw books and bank deposits on this with any or all of its competitors, The Re- public will be the last of all to accept, because its own books would demonstrate that the race between the sheriff and the sapheads is nearing a finish. THE CHICAGO PLATFORM. The politiciansand newspaper scribblers who are working themselves into hyster- los over alleged changes in the Chicago platform may as well subside. They are gnawing a file. The official version of the platform has at length been published by Mr. Edward B. Dickinson, official stenog- rapher of the convention, and it is found to differ but slightly from that previous- ly published in the Post-Dispatch. The original draft of the platform was published in the Chicago papers Thurs- day afternoon of convention week. Im- mediately the members of the platform committee were besieged by delegates and’ others who wanted additions or mod- ifications. In order to give due consider- ation to these, a session of the commit- tee was held on Friday morning, prior to the meeting of the convention. At this session one or two additional planks were added, and in the tenure of office plank the words “except as provided in the con- stitution” were inserted. If the Chicago newspapers had been less energetic in pushing the campaign of the gold standard men and had given more attention to gathering the news of the day, the platform would have been printed verbatim, as it was read by Chairman Jones, and these belated cor- rections would have been unnecessary. . The only important change which Mr. Dickinson's official copy makes in the platform is the inclusion of Senator Hill's addition to the money plank, which reads- as follows: It should be carefully provided by law at the same time that any change in the mon- etary standard should not apply to existing contracts, f The editor of the Post-Dispatch was in the convention hall at the time Senator Hill’s amendments were proposed, and it was his impression, as it was certainly the general impression, that all the amendments were lost. Mr. Dickinson says, however, that this amendment was adopted by a viva voce vote, and it was his special business to watch and report the proceedings. Whether Senator Hill's amendment was adopted or not is of no consequence, as the status of existing contracts is a mat- ter to be determined by the Courts and not by political platforms. Whether Senator Hill’s amendment was adopted or rejected, the legal status of these con- tracts is not affected in the slightest degree Moreover, the writer of the plat- form was careful to include the words “for the future“ in the plank referring to contracts, so that Senator Hill’s amend- ment was obviously superfluous. The plank on Civil and Religious Lib- erty was adopted by the Platform Com- mittee at Friday morning’s session, and was certainly read ip the convention. The St. Louls Post-Dispatch asks: “What does an increasing gold produc- tion amount to, when under the gold standard all our gold goes to Europe?” There will be no danger that our silver will go to Europe under a silver stand- ard. That much is reasonably certain.— Peoria Herald. Well, where do we want our money if not at home? We don’t want to Aransport it from Europe, cer- tainly. That the railroads and their agents are looking carefully after nominations to the State offices in Missouri is shown by the fact that two of the men they owned at the last session of the State Legislat- ure appear on the Republican State tick- et—A. C. Pettijohn, for Lieutenant-Gov- ernor, and J. F. Gmelich for Treasurer. If there is to be a Third party com- posed of gold standard Democrats, It will congist almost entirely of Wall Street bankers and Federal officeholders. - And undoubtedly Mr. Cleveland would be its _ — 2 hate 0 * — . — - Ce ee * .

Yet nobody doubts what Mr. McKinley would do if a higher tariff bill | were to be sent to him for his signa- | ture. Though Gen. Simon Bolivar Buckner is to be made Committeeman for Kentucky on the National Dgmocratic Bolting Com- mitte@ he will not be able to surrender the mocratic party of Kentucky to Wall street and the monopolies.

There is nothing like keeping the system in a condition to resist any sort of weather. — That wearisome political nuisance and universally detested. cuckoo, J. Sterling Morton, has bobbed up again, this t'me in another bolter movement in Nebraska, But the farmers will settle with Morton. They know him very well. W The poisonous mosquito that has killed a colored fitizen of St. Louis is doubtless an intruder who came in on one of the Southern trains or steamers. The Mis- sourl insect is sometimes troublesome, but never fatal. * ns eral — There is unquestionably a great deal of opposition to Uncle Filley, and it seems to be growing, but the old man is very much alive yet, and city politics will continue to be interesting, if not edifying. ’ — “= Electioneering insurance companies are one of the evils of the gold standard oppression. They and the gold standard tyranny will, however, soon hear from the people. * With the spirit of reform in the Mu- nicipal Assembly, let us hope that the taxpayers of St. Louis will not be fur- ther robbed in the matter of valuable franchises. , _ 3 — ee Baker Kohlsaat is alarmed lest free silver would bring him higher prices for his bread. This alarm has overtaken Baker Kohlsaat since he became a banker. : 88 — — The New York Sun’s opposition to Mr. Bryan is amusing, but it is not effective. It looks as if the Sun is going to get the job of criticising Mr. Bryan’s adminis- tration. Daniel Webster said the good white money of the Constitution could not be overthrown, but Daniel could not es- timate the financial degeneracy of our day. The Post-Dispatch has done a thou- sand times more for St. Louis than any ' other journal. The cackle of the local Cheap Johns does not deceive anybody. As Don Dickinson’s partner is to work vigorously for the Chicago platform and ticket, there ought now to be an end of the gold standard folly in Michigan. — Treasury gold protection does not cost us quite so much as high tariff protec- tion, but the policy that necessitates the protection is a twin to the tariff abuse. If Cleveland does not put Carlisle on the Supreme bench when an opportunity offers, there will be gloom in the cuckoo cage. ee With corporation cattle in the Legis- lature the popular interests are certain to be trampled upon. iyö— —— n — The nation is awaking like a giant who has long slumbered, and the pigmies will have to move on. i — — * _ There is no midsummer dullness with the St. Louis Republic.

From the Washington Post. How does the Philadelphia Press know that in case the United States mints were opened to free coinage all the silver in the world would be dumped' upon ts? Does more silver than it needs? If so, why have not those countries been “dumping” it upon Asia, which is a greedy and insatia- | ble buyer of the metal, which takes all that Mexico coins and is constantly esk- ing for more? France, Germany, Italy and Belgium have no silver to bring over here for transformation into United States dol- lars. They have use for all their silver, and nothing is more notorious than that they are 15 anxious to coin more. There is not, as Mr. Whitney declared in his pub- i lic statement last month, a writer or lec- | turer on finance in all Europe, not except- ing England, but holds that the world wants more coin. Urban Amenities.

In the same year he also receiyed his diploma from the law depart- ment of the university, and was admitted to the bar. He at once entered upon the practice of his profession, In 1886 a part- nership was formed with Harvey L. Chris- tie, and later they admitted John L.

Chauncey I. Filley’s Senatorial aspira- tions are threatened with a new danger in an unexpected quarter. Since he started out to go to the United States Senate he has been more arrogant than ever. At the Republican State Convention in Springfield where De Old Man'“ had things his own way and put up or cut down Re- publican politicians like cornstalks, he Was particularly severe on all those who mere supposed to have predilections for Maj. William Warner of Kansas City, his most formidable o nent. Every one that Maj. Warner was for Fil- ley was against and his butcher knife was constantly at work garmering e scalps of Warner Republicans. In this same convention Senatorial Candi- date Filley was particularly severe on Webster Davis, the ex-Mayor of Kansas City. He slaughtered the “Young man with a hole in his hat“ and withal accomplished the deed under the guise of friendship. Until their candidate for Governor had actually been rolled!“ good and hard and effectually, the Davis men believed that Filley was their friend. They were told otherwise by men on the inside, but with that fatuitous confidence in De Ole Man's“ word, which had brought others before them to grief, they believed that he was for Davis. In the light which now breaks the gloom in the Davis camp with the brilliance of 88 candle power, they see things dif- er 7. . ord comes from Kansas City that since the Springfield Convention Maj. William Warner and Webster Davis have reached a mutual and satisfactory agreement. They are to combine their forces in a Wigorous fight against Filley. heir combined strength is to be used to defeat his aspirations to go to the Senate to succeed Mr. Vest. The possible election of the Republican State ticket appears every day as a more remote contingency, but to be prepared for the boss' in any event, they have ar- 2— a mutual plan of warfare against “him. Every bit of influence possessed by Davis in the State is to be thrown in the scale against Filley. Maj. Warner has always been against Je Ole Man, and with the new combination e is assured of the solid support of Kan- Bas City and Jackson County. That means in Jackson County alone two anti-Filley Senators and six Representa- tives in the Legislature should the Repub- licans accidentally duplicate the landslide of two years ago. , Soon after the Springfield convention Maj. Warner and his former enemy, Webster Davis, met by appointment. Davis was still bleeding from the wounds inflicted by the boss, and Maj. Warner struck while the fron was hot. It is said that he presented such con- Vineing evidence of Filley’s treachery to 1 if that the latter admitted that the * an“ had defeated him, and had been tr., sherous to him all the time. The details of this conference between Davis and Warner were kept secret. Enough has leaked out, however, to make it certain that they have one end in view and will work together for it—to eliminate Chauncey Ives Filley from the Senatorial race. Ex-Mayor Davis' brother, Walter, Super- intendent of Streets of Kansas City, has ad- mitted the new deal in an interview, in which he said in substance that the Re- publleans of Kansas City and Jackson County would support Maj. Warner as — Filley in any contest in the future. aj. Warner's friends claim that the compact goes still further. Webster Davis will go into every county in the State they say, where he has influence an friends, to urge the nomination of Repub- lican candidates for the House and Senate who are against Filley and for Warner for the United States Senate. While the Kansas City anti-Filley men are thus working to prevent De Ole Man from even being “Minister to Dahomey,” the Beaumont sage is flirting with the Wall street wing of the St. Louis Democracy and smiling kindly on them as they coyly proffer their services to aid in the election of the Republican State ticket, the Repub- lican Congressmen and the Republican elec- tors from the different districts. Maj. William Warner is reported as bein in a state of perpetual happiness since he closed the deal with his former enemy, Davis, the expert hat shooter from the Kaw. With Jackson County solid, with Col. Lib Morse, the Excelsior Springs mathematician, figuring for him, with Maj. John L. Bit- tinger guarding the northwest, with the _ Cahoon men in the southwest, Maj. Warner feels that his fences are in excellent shape and that Chauncey I. Filley is not within 1,000 miles of the Senatorial nomination, MEXICAN NEWS. A Governor’s Resignation and Some Big Railroad Projects. CITY OF MEXICO, July $1.—Gen.
