The barometer is generally above normal in all sections, except the extreme North- east and Utah. The area of greatest heat extends along the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts from Boston to Galveston, and also includes stations on the Mississippi from the Gulf as far north as St. Louis. All other sections report moderate to cool weather. Rains have fallen from IJlinois eastward through the Ohio Valley, also in Iowa and Northwestern Missouri. Chicago reports 1.22 inches of rain. OUTSIDE ST. LOUIS. The Heat Slightly Abated in New York, but Philadelphians Are Simmering. NEW YORK, Aug. 12.—There were indi- eations this forenoon that the torrid spell, which this section has suffered, with only one slight intermission, for two weeks, was drawing to a close. The heat, however, was excessive all the night, and increased with the rising of the sun, and at 8 a. m. ther- mometers down town marked 83 degrees in the shade, the official record, however, be- ing three degrees less. A brisk breeze tem- pered the fervid rays of the sun, even with the humidity at ye cent. At 10:45 a. m. Weather bserver’s thermometer showed a temperature of 8% degrees. The pavements, however, have a vast deal of caloric stored in them which does not make itself manifest ia official re- ports based on observations 100 feet from the street level. Between 2 and 7 o’clock the lice had been notified of six deaths as t result of the heat. At 9 o'clock all the police records showed that @ixteen persons had been treated for sunstroke since 2 o'clock in the morning. Six deaths from heat and many cases of prostration were reported in Brooklyn from midnight last night to 10 o'clock this morning. RAIN AT LAST. Some Sections of the Country Enjoy Wet Weather.

John Hardy, Who Once Escaped From the Work-House, to Be Given Hours, John Hardy, whose sensational escape from the Workhouse was a matter of in- terest a year ago, was arrested Tuesday night by Detectives McGrath and Anderson. The arrest was madé on the general prin- ciple that a thief at liberty is dangerous. Hardy will be sent to Police Court as a Vagrant and it is expected that he will be given a few tipurs in which to leave the city. Hardy was well known a few years ago as a pickpoe»-., but he became too well known to the police and it got so that he could not mingle with a crowd anywhere without being arrested by some officer who knew him. Then he took to working at hight, and last summer was arrested on a charge of burg- lary, and on @ plea of guilty went to the Workhouse to serve six months. He had not been a prisoner a month and a halt when one evening in returning from a quar- ry to the prison for supper he jumped out of the cart at the end of Jefferson avenue and ran across the street. The guards fired shots at him, but missed. y jumped into a bu to which "ee — shot at him repeatedly with their shot- hedge = fifies, but Hardy only turned about in his seat and laughed at their ef- o capture him. core f . lost them and was not seen agu fn ae last winter, when he ventured ek into St. Louis to visit acquaintances. e was seen by a poltoomes and was ar- the nd sent to Workhouse to finish t ein moans’ sentence.

An emergency accordingly existed. In emergency repairs a ve eculiar sys- tem is in vogue in the Schoo rd in let- i contracts for the work. very member of the Building Committee, when appointed, is assigned certain schools to look after. He is expected to see that these schools are .ept in perfect order. When repairs are needed on any school in the ordinary course of events, the entire committee examines into the matter, and if satisfied of the necessity, orders the work done. In all jobs amounting to over $100 it required that bids be advertised for. When emergency repairs are required ad- vértising for bids is dispensed with. The members of the committee who have the care of the building, confer with Architect Kirchner and designates the contractor who is to be employed. The contractor does the work, presents his bill and is paid. Of course the bill is audited and then approved by the board before pay- ment is made. In this manner the contracts were given out for the repair work necessitated by the tornado. John Cudmore, brother of Di- rector Alex Cudmore, was given $4,993.49 worth of this work, distributed as follows: For repairing tornado damages— Sumner High School.: For repairing tornado damages— Clinton School For repairing Clinton Branc For repairing Clipton School For repalirin tornado damages— Sumner Hig choo For repairing of roof, sliding doors, putting up new fences and re- moving out-houses ftom yards, te., at L’Ouverture School For repairing fences, basement floors, doors, etc., Franklin School Repairing fences, windows, etc.,Eliot School ; Repairing roof of Shields School....

This is because the items 9 the vouchers made tof John Cudmore. In other words, the total cost on the Sumner High chool was $1,247.14 and on the Clinton chool $1,441.33. There was no competition for any of this work, although each school call for more than $100 expenditure, because it was emergency repair work. When Alex. Cudmore succeeded Rebenack on the Building Committee, no change was made in the assignment of schools to the members. Mr. Cudmore accordingly as- sumed supervision of the group of schools assigned to Rebenack, This group included the Sumner High School. As already stated, John Cudmore was given the work on this school, and his bill was $1,247.14. Probably in no other body of public offi- cials is the policy of “you tickle me and I’ll tickle you“ more easily practiced than in the St. Louls School Board. President Henry Bus fixe an example of this in explaining ednesday why he had ap- pointed Cudmore on the Building. Commit- te . The fact that the Sumner High School was the only one in Mr, Cudmore’s group needing repairs does not argue, therefore, that his brother John got the work on six others merely by chance. While the great fight over specifiestions for boilers was waging recently n the Buifld- ing Committee, lexander udmore and Charles G. Penney were two of the com- mittee poentene yen imsisted upon favor- ing ex-Director E. M. Bosley. Four of the other schools which were re- ired by Director Cudmore’s brother were Er the group assigned to Director Penney.

Now It Is a Favorite Trysting Place of Soiled Doves and Their Admirers. If you were to ask any old-time sport or man about town for the gayest, wickedest place in St. Louis during the good old ys gome eix or eight years ago when money was more plentiful than it is these hard times, he would probably smile at the recollection of many a gay night out and whisper, “The Morgan Club.“ Were all the wine and frogs’ legs, and boiled lobsters and stolen kisses, et cetera, et cetera, to come back some hot night and haunt the dreams of any of a thousand men who were wont to go there, conscience, with its thousand tongues, might wake the sleeper with its clamor or perchance might only murmur and then be hushed by the eweetness of the memories. Those were the days when Papa Harry Harris held forth at Jefferson avenue and Chestnut street, with a gay good fellowship that—wicked as it might be called—had the charm of gilded vice, which, especially in retrospection, robs it of half the wrong. But Papa Harry, with his fat, round paunch and his ferocious black’ mustache. gave up his evil ware if these be evil, and took to selling only the finest kinds of liquors to gentlemen with cultivated tastes and also pools on the races. They say it's not well to speak ill of the and as Papa Harry is dead, at least to that world, for the present, perhaps it is best to let him alone. What he did and let be done is done and there's an end to it. But the Morgan Club exists to-day a thousand times more wicked than it ever was, more hideous to the virtuous, in that it stands flaunting ite evil with no effort at concealment, no mask of gayety to hide its rottenness. After Papa Harry ve up e place it fell into the hands of the redoubtable ex- road-house keeper, Herbert, who, but for a penchant for charging patrons with imaginary bottles of wine, was always a success as a caterer to the manifold de- — of sportively inclined ladies and gen- emen. Cool’s enemies say his front name fits him, except in winter time, when it ought to be Ice, to make the comparison perfect, but he has his friends and always manages to get money in over the bar in one way or another. He started in to run the place along the game lines as his predecessor, but he got tangled up with his silent partners over money matters and eventually pulled out. Then the club fell into the hands of Au- gust Maloughren, and there was an in- stant turn for the worse. There is some- thing about this name that doesn’t appeal to people who never met the owner. A man with the front name of August has got to demonstrate that there is something in him before high-rollers take a fancy to him or to any thirst eames or restaurant for which he may ask patronage. August apparently failed to do this. The high-rollers quit going to the Morgan Club. The bon vivants who had haunted it in the days of Papa Har and hung on in the days of Cooleridge Herbert sought other resorts to while away the leaden hours with the solace of wine and women. © A man up a tree this left August hold- ing the bag. But he did not hold it long without — | some shekels in it. He simply switched his class of customers, and the game went merrily on. It seems to make proprietors of these amusement places somewhat hot under the collar to er in uncomplimentary terme to the character of their patrons. It must be because they are really ig- norant of how naughty these ple are, for they certainly see It they knew it, of course, they wouldn’t have them around, because the police and the Excise Commissioner might find it out, and make trouble. All of these proprietors are afraid of the police and the Excise Com- missioner. They are so active in the per- formance of their respective duties. Several others having been informed on this point, it is therefore no more than just to August that he be told just what sort of people went his place, and just — they act, as far as can be without a ewspaper gettin into difficulty with Uncle m’s postal laws.

He Says That Rather Than Sign His Name as Dan Benton He’ll Stay Where He Is. Special to the Post-Dispatch. MENARD P. O., II., Aug. 12.—The offi- cials of the Southern Illinois Penitentiary are in a quandary. The time of Dan Ben- ton, alias®@Villiam Newby, has expired, but he refuses to sign the discharge papers ex- cept as William Newby. His sentence reads as follows: “The defendant, Daniel Benton, alias Wm. Newby, is sentenced to confinement in the Southern Illinois Penitentiary for the period of two years at hard labor from this date (August 28, 1893), and that he pay the costs of the prosecution. That he stand com- mitted until costs are fully paid.” The United States Judges hold all United States prisoners for 30 days. At the ex- DAN BENTON, ALIAS WILLIAM NEW- BY. piration of 2 days they can go before a United States Commissioner, take the debt- or’s oath and be discharged. Benton'e time was out, including the 30 days for costs, to-day. He was sent for by Chief Clerk Havill and asked to sign the application for his release. He refused to sign except as William Newby, and stated he would stay here until he died. Deput Randolph marched him back to the yard. Warden Schneider sent a — 2 7 to the United States officials and received the fol- lowing reply: SPRINGFIELD, III., Aug. 10.—John J. Schneider, Warden, Menard, III:: United States Attorney says that name of Benton must appear on application. Can be si ned Benton alias Newby. Hold him until he does 80. (Signed) W. B. BRINTON, United States Marshal. Thus the case stands. Benton’s time is out. but he cannot be released until he makes application. The Warden cannot discharge him, or he will be indicted for contempt of court, and he cannot force Ben- ton to sign it. It is a perplexing question, but the prison officials do not seem to enjoy it. MERCHANTS’ LEAGUE. Will Big Republican Organization Make a Show at the Chilli- cothe Meeting. The Merchants’ League Republican Club will meet Wednesday evening to select dele- gates to the State League Convention which opens at Chillicothe next Tuesday morning. The Merchants’ is the largest league club in the State, having over 3,000 members. On the basis of one delegate for every fifty members it will send over sixty delegates, and then there are league clubs in every ward, which, according to the estimate of Secretary Wenneker, will give St. Louis a 1 1 of fully 500 at Chillicothe. he league, which was formerly such a powerful ally of the anti-Filley element, is now controlled outright by the Sage of Beaumont street. The silk-hosed branch of the Republican family lost control when Matt G. Reynolds was led away from the State by a tempting Federal appointment, secured from President Harrison through the influence of Gen. Noble, Kerens and oth- er leading opponents of the man who wants to go to the Senate. The Merchants’ League Club will as a matter of course, place De Ole Man' at the head of its list, provided he will accept. The word has been passed along the line by Boss Filley to get as big a crowd as possible at Chillicothe next week, as the State cam- paign opens Wednesday. Candidate Lewis will make the speech of the day and Filley wants a big demonstra- tion in honor of the event. A special rate has been secured for the convention and Secretary Wenneker is arranging for a spe- cial train for the St. Louis delegates. LBB RESIGNS. Prefers Making the Race as an Elector to Remaining on the Po- lice Board. John A. Lee has resigned as a member of the Board of Police Commissioners for the cityof St. Louls. His res.gnation will be delivered to Gov. William J. Stone, who is now in New York. : It is to take effect at once. The Governor will probably take no action until his re- turn from the East. Mr. Lee started for Mackinac, Mich., Wed- nesday night. Before going he resigned as Pollce Commissioner. Tuesday Mr. Lee thought he would not re- sign until about Aug. 4, but Wednesday morning he reconsidered the matter and he is no longer a member ef the Police Board. This action was taken that he might be eligible to make the race as elector-at-large on the Democratic ticket. Ghortly after his resignation Wednesday Mr. Lee said: “I am not rich in worldly 2 and it was something of a sacrifice or me to give up an office which pays $1,- 000 a year. Yet I have been honored by the party and I propose to stump the State for the ticket. shall remain in Mackinac two weeks and when I return my services are at che command of the party.” Mr. "s resignation leaves a vacancy on the Police Board. His term of office does not expire until Jan. 1, , he fact that his successor will have only a few monthe to serve will probably pre- vent much of a scramble for his place. As Gov. Stone will not return to the State til the latter part of the month, the new Commissioner will not be pamed NEWBY IS STUBBORN. + Pe er EX 8 n a : tan a ; 2 75 ‘ 5 8 1 . . n ae Ak Se n n a4 =~) “Ke Ve MES 1 * Sh he 8 oy * * * * . a . * 1 3 * W „ et 4 25 — r 1 ‘ &. * “et Te we 25 — 1 - ö — a * * . 7 5 5 * J 0 , P . vee AS | www = 4 1 2 * x 8 a r * ; — = e J 4 N * 7 9 92 5 SCHOOL BOARD ‘FACTIONISTS MADE A MISTAKE | TRIED TO OUST A FIXTURE. The Building Committee Didn’t Think 3 When It Sought to Help Di- rector Godfrey’s Son. In the haste to make room at the publio trough for the son of School Director Wm. Godfrey the Building Committee of the School Board made a grievous blunder. They. deliberately recommended the re- moval of an employe who was with them in politics and the other issues that gov- ern the acts of the Republican faction of the Board. The patriot in question is one William N. Ewing, operator of one of the elevators at the Board of Bducation Building. TANNOPOLUA’S THUGS Lawyer McDonald Will Immediately Sue Jannopolua and the Sub- urban Railroad Co. 0 Otto Voelker, the Third street commis- sion merchant who was so brutally slugged at Jannopolua’s Suburban beer garden last Thursday night, went out to Florissant yes- terday to answer a charge of disturbing the peace before Squire Belleville. He was accompanied by his attorney, Marshall F. McDonald, and as Mr. Mc- Donald was somewhat uncertain as to whether or not his client could get a square deal in the Florissant temple of justice, a change of venue was asked for. The law is that when a Justice is dis- qualified the case shall go to the next near- est magistrate, but Justice Belleville, after a walspered consultation with employes of the Suburban Railroad, decided to send the case to Justice Noerper in Luxembourg, be- os Carondelet. 8 A court. Mr. Voelker and his lawyer th tarted for the city. On the — was Taune- poine and the manager of his beer garden, umpertz, together with ten or twelve other Fortunately for him the action of the committee was not final. It required the co-operation of a majority of the Board to make it effective. To secure this a recom- mendation had to be made to the Board for Ewing’s removal. It was intended that this recommendation should be made at the meeting of the board Tuesday night. It was not made. In fact every precau- tion was taken to ke the action of the committee from the clal knowledge of the central . This was because the Republican factional members of the committee had discovered their blunder before it was too late. As a result Ray Godfrey, son of Coal Dealer and School Director Godfrey, will the committee that the blunder was com- mitted. It was there represented that com- 1 had been registered against Ewing y Secretary Player and Auditor Hammer- stein of the board. They both denied it, but the committee decided to recommend Ewing’s removal anyhow. Chairman Kisener of the Building Com- mittee frantically telephoned to the Board of Education Building late Tuesday after- noon that a mistake had been made. The committee had not intended the removal employes of the beer garden, including Hen- son, the uniformed slugger who beat Voelker until he was almost unconscious, As the beer garden attaches entered the car they took off their coats and Lawyer McDonald noticed that the handles of re- volvers protruded ominously from the pock- ets of nearly all of them. When the car started Gumpertz announced in a loud and threatening voice that he could lick any — — — who dared to say that Jan- nopolua’s beer garden was disreputable. Jannopolua broke in with a remark that he would go down to see his lawyer and have him begin an action against the Post-Dis- patch for damages. There's the — — — who told the Post-Dis- patch that the garden is disreputable,” shouted Gumpertz, and then he reached over and shook his clenched fist in Voelker’s face. “And I can lick you or any other — — — who 4 it’s disreputable,”” Gumpertz yelled, his face aflame with passion. All the men in the car were watching Gumpertz, and Mr. McDonald says he saw some of them clutch the handles of their revolvers. He saw they were spoiling for a fight and concluded that it was a put up job to trap Voelker into making a break that would give them an excuse for again as- saulting him. ¢ Keep your temper; they are a dozen and all armed ané we are but two without weap- ons,“ whispered the lawyer, who has been in many a ht pinch with his clients. Gumpertz kept up his torrent of abuse against Voelker, evidently bent on incit- of Ewing at all. It was a case of mistaken Patrick Friel, another elevator operator in the Board of Education Building. ~ 1 considerable criticism from the fact that it was taken without cause and Ewing a wife and child to support. When it became known that Mr. Friel was the man intended the criticism was redoubled because he had not only not done anything to merit dismissal, but is also a married man, and in addition is a cripple and compelled to sit down at his work, and for that reason has no prospect of se- curing a livelihood if removed from his present position. But Friel is a Democrat. — — — — None of the members of the Building Committee would explain how the mistake had occurred. Director Lacey told a Post- Dispatch reporter that he thought it was due to the fact that the committee acted hurriedly in the matter, and in its haste got the two names mixed. The fact was that the committee was anxious to secure a Berth for the son of one of its members. A School Director's position pays no salary. So, why should not the son of a director be made a sal- aried employe, so the family may receive at least a small sum legitimately from the — of the head of it with the School Boa The first employe to co under the no- tice of the committee was Ewing, and ar- rangementa were made forthwi for his official decapitation. He was a holdover re gug 2 from the old board, owing his position to Democratic m- fluence, and that was sufficient. The Republican members of the commit learned Nuesdar however, that Ewing h joined the Merchants’ Club subse- vent to the election, which enabled the Republicans to make of the public schoole a partisan spoils machine. They also learned that he had joined the American Protective Association. So the removal of Ewing was not recom- mended to the Board Tuesday night. The posit'on pays $50 a month. The — served to save the official head of Patrick Friel, the ether elevator man.

You come into this car, surrounded by a gang of your own men, all of them armed and ready to fight, and you attempt to bully an unprotected and peaceable citi- zen. You wouldn't dare to do it if you didn’t have your gang with you. This shows you are a coward.” Gumpertz winced, but he didn’t attempt to strike the lawyer. if you want to fight,” continued onald, “I will find a man who isn’t half so big as you are, and I will wager you a large amount of money that he will thrash you within an inch of your life. “He ts a man who was beaten one night by the armed thugs out at your beer gar- den, and he is going to bring an action against every one connected with it. If you want a personal set-to with him I can very speedily arrange it.“ Gumpertz subsided after this and then Jannopolua and the lawyer fell to talkin in a peaceable way. Jannopolua proteste that he was trying to run a respectable re- sort and that he was not responsible for the assault on Voelker. “Then why did you not come out and unce this in a card to the public?” | Mr. McDonald. If you had done this lischarged from your employ this fel- low Henson and the others who mistreated Mr. Voelker and other reputabie citizens on your grounds, the public would have re- spected you and the newspapers would have commended you.“ “Well, I am not in a position to do that.“ replied Jannopolua. The assault on Voel- ker did not take place in my garden, but in the railroad yards just outside. Henson and the other lice are hired jointly by myself and the Suburban Railroad Co. Hen- son gets $60 a month; I pay half and the railroad pays the other half.“ This was the very admission wanted by the lawyer. „I had been told that the thugs were also in the employ of the Suburban Rallroad,“ said Mr. MeDonald in describing yester- Such thas been the fate of all previous efforte of the Republicans to garner School Board spoils, except in the case of Mr. | Wolkewitz, supervisor of painting and | whitew ing. He was removed in order to permit Director H. C. Grawe to get some of the pickings for bis family through the appointment of his brother Fred. | This did not have to be approved by the board, and it stands as the only successful 18 achievement of the Republicans in this line since they took charge of School Board af- fairs. Until Grawe’s appointment it was un- derstood that the removal of Wolkewitz was in a spirit of economy and that the position would be abolished. This was indignantly denied by Director Lacey Wednesday morning. “Charges were preferred against Mr. Wolkewitz,” said Lacey. “That is why he was removed. Mr. Grawe’s appointment is only temporary, as I understand it. It is only for the whitewashing season. A short time o I asked Wolkewitz what work he was doing while there was no whitewashing going on. He said he was doing odd jobs and runni errands. I thought then that $100 a month was a good d to pay to a man for running errands.” A vain attempt to make room for a nephew of Director H. C. Koenig was made | feel pretty sure t day’s incident to a Post-Dispatch re orter, „but I wasn’t sure of it until I got the ad- mission voluntarily from Jannopolua. Now I shall institute proceedin in the civil courts on behalf of Mr. oelker against both Jannopolua and the Suburban 1 Co., and when I get through with them e lease of the beer gar- den will be worth a great deal less than it now. „Besides a dam suit for the outrage 1 on Mr. Voelker at the beer gar- en, I ehall bring suit for the manner in which Mr. Voelker was treated yesterday on one of the company’s cars. A BOODLE CAMPAIGN. Uncle Filley Is Setting His Pegs to Carry Missouri by Spend- ing Money. The Executive Committee of the State Republican organization has been notified at Tuesday night's meeting of the board. It involved the removal of Auditor Hammer- stein. It came up in a recommendation from the Ways and Means Committee for Ham- merstein’s re-appointment. Director Koenig made a hot talk against the report and accused Mr. Hammerstein of all manner of things, at the same time lauding his nephew for his fitness for the position. The matter was ruled out of order. Mr. Hammerstein will not be removed for the sake of Koenig’s nephew, because a majority of the board will insist on voting for his retention. : — SICK HEADACHE.

THE’ COURT HOUSE THE SALVATION ARMY IS AS- SAILED BY A BELLEVILLE MOB. LED BY ANARCHIST SCHWARZ. For More Than Two Hours ; the Little Band Battled With a Howl- ing Crowd. The violent demonstrations by the turbu- lent elements of Belleville against the Salvation Army, which have occurred at frequent intervals on the public square for a year past, culminated Tuesday night in a riot. That there are no serious casual- ties to record is a matter of wonder. The scene, which occurred on the very steps of the St. Clair County Court-house, has in all probability never had a parallel in the county. 7 For over two hours the mob surged around the little band of Christians, curs- ing, shouting indecencies, 1 8 — and creating a perfect bedlam of discord- ant noises, and not a policeman an interposing hand. . The Army a ared on the square short- ly before 8 o’clock, and, thinking to gain a point of advantage against the crowd, which had been growing more demonstra- tive every night for a week past and looked more menacing than usual, Capt. Anderson directed the march to the steps of the Court-house and made a stand near the top of thom. Instead of being an advanta- geous — it proved the contrary. The crowd immediately surged up around them climbed upon the side elevations and formed a solid mass extending back to the pillars at the top. The word had been given out that the time had arrived for the final struggle for mastery, and the work in hand was begun without any preliminary flourishes. As soon as the Captain opened his mouth to speak, a chorus of howls and whistles wes tae which effectually drowned his A song was started and carried through in fairly good shape, but when the soldiers stopped singing the crowd kept right on shouting the words of the chorus in discord- ant tones. Another and another of the familar popu- lar airs adopted by the army to their uses were caught up by the crowd and the inter- vals punctuated by profane comments, sug- gestive perversions of the meaning of the words and mocking imitations of the pious exclamations of the Christians. The latter saw that it was the intention to prevent the holding of even a semblance of a meeting and realizing that a victory for the mob would give it such a mastery that the army could never hope to make an- other effectual stand against its persecutors, they settled down for a long siege. Capt. Woods, a visiting officer, tried to read from the Scriptures. He detected a passage which he thought would awe the most profane. He began: For God so loved thé world—’’ He got no further. is voice was drown- ed in a hideous outburst of yells, whistles cat-calls and ribald shouts of ‘Amen,’ “Glory to God” and Praise the Lord.“ The uproar could be heard for several blocks and the crowd rapidly grew until it numbered more than a thousand. The demonstration continued merely a vocal one until about 9 o’clock, When Hans Schwarz, the editor of the little German Anarchist paper, and several friends ap- peared on the scene. As soon as he got into the center of the crowd he began to shout abuse at the Sal- | Sr copia, but for a time hie efforts fell AT. The crowd at that juncture was eulogizing its leaders. What's the matter with Brushy?’ cried a man with a squeaky voice at the foot of the steps. He's all right,” chorused the crowd en- thuslastically. What's the matter with Hans Schwarz?” — a fat fellow from the topmost step. Schwarz jumped up in the air, waved his hat frantically and yelled hoarsely: He's all right!” Everybody else was still. Schwarz was set back, but he callied and pressing to the front repeated the fat man’s question, following it 1 with a repetition of the assurance that Hans Schwarz was all right, but again he was alone. The crowd was a thoughtless one, but it realized that the cause of the Salvationists would be helped by the opposition of the Anarchist editor. Schwarz saw that he would have to do something to recoup himself and making his way through the crowd went up the steps and mounted one of the side eleva- tions. As his figure stood out in relief on the high pedestal the crowd rallied to his standard and gave him an ovation) Spreading out his hands impressively he motioned his followers to silence, and gan a vituperative speech in German. The only hope for the Salvationists was to turn the tables, and with all their in- struments and their voices they set in to drown out Schwarz. He stormed and cursed, and shook his fists at the Christians, called the women prostitutes; imitated their motions in play- ing on their instruments, danced and howled. He tried to fire the patriotism of his hear- ers by singing the chorus of “Marching Through Georgia,“ but ‘“‘Hurrah, Hurra was all the English he could pronou an he padded’ out the lines with hoarse “tra-las.”” Somebody brought him a glass of foamin by employes of the company while riding — and as he struck a stiff attitude an hel it aloft before throwing it down his ullet, the scene was illuminated by red re from in front of the National Hotel saloon and pafidemonium broke loose. He came down soon after and went to the nearest saloon for more inspiration, but returned in fifteen minutes, and again climbed to his high pedestal. He hurled epithets of the grossest in- decency at the Christians, and harangued the crowd to greater violence.

A part of the crowd knelt with them and groaned out mockin eupplications to the Deity. The rest s aloof and shouted and whistled.

A number of stalwart sympathizers with the Christians gathered at the foot of the steps and prepared to resist the onslaughts when there was a sudden lull. Capt.

SHOULD HAVE BEEN FAVORITE. | Form Players Forgot Her Races With O’Connell Last Fall—Sporting * News and Gossip. There was some very nice, well-balanced racing at the Fair Grounds yesterday. The fiel@s were not too large, their class was excellent and a goodly share of the bookmakers’ coin went into the pockets of the people. The day was also remarkable for the fine riding done by Eddie Jones, who rode the winners im the first five races. He failed to land Col.

It will not be forgotten ag the regulars what wonderful races the little chestnut mare ran in her numerous duels with the mighty O’Connell last year. Those semi- weekly meetings between the little mare and the big gelding were some of the strongest attractions the Fair Association Offered to the public. Linda had all the best of half a desen meetings. In all of them, even when beaten, she showed speed like the wind and ‘pluck like a bull terrier. Theref to ple who remember well, it looked mny to hear Linda called a “dog” and a “quitter” before yesterday's race. True she has not performed res- sively this season, but Linda never has n an early horse. In the Spring and early summer of last year ehe could not beat a burro, but by Sept. 1 very few horses in the West could deat her over a mile. most mares she rounds to late and has al- a good-hearted strap and hammered fn the air. A good many alleged students of form felt angry when the mare won yesterday. Some of them wanted her ruled off. They forgot that she was only beaten a nose over seven and one-half furlongs tm 18 a few days ago. That made her good to run the mile in 1:42 yesterday. She did it handily, in half a eee een 8 ger is a y go plater over * — but Linda is a handicap horse of more than average power. ft was hard to see, for some people, how Murphy's horse could es her three years, two pounds and a beating. It i not right when you fail to pick a winner to hallo “fraud.” Owners, tralners, jockeys and judges are not to biame so often as self-sufficient, know-it-all students of the “dope” sheet would have them. Cigarettes, beer, late hours, bad judgment and a r head for figures cause many a false vorite. Racing men and track of- en cannot always be blamed if the horses do not run in strict acoordance with the tenets of the “dope” flend's creed or the tips of the emoke inhaler.

When she got to a telegraph pole, between Robert and Upton streets, she stopped and began talking to it. She accused the pole of being her ancestral tree. and became so angry at it that she was kicking the tips off of her shoes against it when Patroimon O’Brien found her and took her to the First District Police Station in Carondelet. While there she refused to say anything further than that her name was Kate Mitchell, She insisted that she had no information for the police, and would do nothing but condemn her captors for taking her there. She was taken to the City Hos- pital, where her mental condition is being observed. August is the best month of the year for visiting West Baden and Freneh Lick Springs, Indiana.

LONDON, Aug. 12.— The Times will pub- lish a letter from Havana, which gives the evidence of a high military officer that 25 per cent of the Spanish troops in Cuba are on the sick list or are unfit for duty. Dis- cussing the desperate state of the sugar in- dustry, the letter says: Much misery on this account might be avoided if Cuba, by purchase or otherwise, became a State of the American Union. Under 9 stable government, a free market in the United States and assisted by Ameri- can capita}, the island would easily produce a sufficient sugar supply for all the require- ments of America, Under the present Span- ish rule or subject to the uncertainties of a republican government by the Cubans there would be little hope for the sugar industry, Free Cuba may be a good catch cry in the United States, but it does not commend itself to the business people of Cuba. With the sugar and tobacco indus- tries in their preset condition the outlook is gloomy, and Spain would do well to con- sider carefully any offer for the purchase of the island by the United States.” With Bad Prinking Water Use Horsford's Acid Phosphate.

C., Aug. 12.—In a com- munication to the State Department, just made public, Consul Thomas Ewing Moore ot Weimar comments on the law recently | adopted by the German Reichstag, by which ‘the Government will exercise control over Stock Exchange transactions. Consul Moore believes that the effect of the new law, if carried out, will be wholesome if it prevents stock gambling and makes it difficuit to float unsound stock upon the market. | The law provides that the German Stock and Produce Exchange Commissioners are to be appointed as representatives of the Government, whose duties shall be to con- trol all exchange transactions and exact the fulfillment of the laws governing uch transactions. They are entitled to be pres- ent at the meetings of the exchange com- mittees and draw attention to abuses. They shall report to the Government any wants they discover and propose such means as | Rey judge will provide for them. sting of stocks and bonds shall be de- cided by a Committee on Admissions, of which at least one-half shall not be mem- bers of the Exchange (Bourse). At each committee meeting such members must be excluded as have any interest whatever in bonds and stocks under consideration. Such members must be substituted by other members. Stocks and bonds can only be ad- | mitted after at least one year’s existence of the company, and after the publication of one year’s profit and loss account. The duties of the Committee on Admissions are: 8 require all documents which may serve as a basis of judgment for a new issue of bonds and stocks. 2. To have the public informed as fully as possible of the actual and legal condi- tions necessary for the proper apprec.ation of the bonds and stocks, and not to admit —— if the information furnished is incom- Ple te. 3. Not to admit issues by which common public interests may be hurt or the public | deceived. The committee may refuse an Issue without giving reasons. f a prospec- tus, on the strength of which an issue of stock has been effected, contains false state- ments or omits facts important for the ap- procetion of the stocks, both those who ave prepared the statements and those | who have made them public are held re- | sponsible for any loss experienced by the owner of the stocks, The adoption of the law was brought about by the Agrarian party in the Reichs- tag. whose leaders are at the head of the Bund der Landwirthe, a union of 80,000 farmers throughout Germany, and their ' chief aim is to get higher prices for their produce and be less dependent upon the erlin — They say that the time deliveries facilitate imports, and hence de- press prices, allowing the large speculators to exercise complete control of the market, They say that the speculator makes a play- thing of the principal food of man, and that much more grain is sold than is grown on the earth. The way in which grain mer- chants view the law is shown by the action of the Bremen grain firms, large and small, which have declared unanimously in favor of the abolition of time delivery contracts, The Reichstag has passed a resolution au- thorizing the Imperial Government to ad- dress the foreign Powers with a view to call- ing an international convention looking to the abolition of time delivery contracts. In consequence of the new law the speculating public will in future speculate in bank, rail- way and steamship shares, as industrials will be practically closed to them.

Thresb returns and estimates, — to the Iowa weekly bulletin, indicate the average yield per acre for that State as 26 bu oats, a 7 and 14 bu spring wheat, 16 bu rye, 28 bu barley, 1.6 2 timo hay and 1.8 tons clover. he t e and tonged heated spell has un- doubtedly done 2 damage to pastures. Espe- cially, it is stated, is this the case in the Fast, in- el w States. „Hat any rate, will increase t demand for millfeed and thus help out the Western millers. The Government weekly bulletin makes a very un- favorable report as to the effects of the continued dry heat upon the cotton crop. The Bureau's August figures for Iowa, Nebraska and Kansas indicate a corn crop for these States of 961,600,000 bu. The final returns for 1895 were for 628,900,000 bu for these States.

Tug Wilson writes from Lebanon, Mo., to Joe Carr. the Exchange caller: ‘‘You can announce it on Call to morrow that I'll det any one $100 that wheat and earn will advance 80 per cent if we don’t have rain within forty-eight hours. I know money is scarce, but winter wheat will de a let scarcer in the near future. Not one bughel of wheat on the Sante Fe road. west of Pa- cific, will come to St. Louis.

He liked the smell of the hot tamales and the grateful warmth emanating from the big tin cans in which the tamales were stored. If he found a tamale man absent from his st for a moment, Muggins would squat down like a Chinese idol in front of the can, and take charge of it for the rest of the evening, while customers waited and the tamale man shrieked and swore, afraid to approach loss.
