BRUTAL TOM LARKINS STRUNG UP AT RHINELANDS. IN THE NIGHT. LYNCHED Taken From the Hotel to a Clump of Woods and Left Dangling From a Limb. Little Alice Gammon, who was fiendishly assaulted by Tom Larkin, a tramp, at Rhineland, Mo., Wednesday afternoon, has been avenged. The Missouri, Kansas & Dastern freight train, which arrived in St. Louis at 8:45 o’clock Friday morning, passed through Rhineland at 5:35 o’clock. The train crew saw Larkin’s body dang- ling from a tree a few yards to the side of the track. They brought the news of the lynching to St. Louis. The story of Larkin’s crime and his nar- row escape from lynching Wednesday night was told exclusively in Thursday’s Post- Dispatch... Larkin followed the child, who was but 13 years old, and deaf, from the Rhineland can factory, where she was employed, to @ stretch of woods about 300 yards from the station. There he attempted to assault her, and so mutilated her with a knife that Thureday night she was thought to be dy- e residents of the town, after Larkin’ 8 but the others yards east and to the north < When the — clothes were 1 » ? on" : was selected. of the wood.

DENVER, Colo., Sept. (Ire Denver Re- publican, owned by ex-Senator N. P.

SPRINGFIELD, Ill, Sept. 4.—March 10, 1891, Senator John M, Palmer was elected United States Senator by the Illinois Legislature. Messrs, Cockrell and Moore, the two F. M. B. A. members of that body, held an interview with General Palmer on March 10, and on the next day cast the necessary two votes that élect- ed him United States Senator. The two Populists held interviews with General Palmer on March 10, which were published in full in the State Register of th time. The interview with Representative Cockrell was as follows: I would like you to give us your views on Tell us how you stand in regard to it, whether you favor Mr. Cockrell: money. the national bank circulatidn, ; Gen. Palmer: Yes, sir. Mr. Cockrell: evening of city at that question of abolition of You believe that all money should be issued and qoined by the Government, and all circulation controlled by the Government? Gen. Palmer: Yes, sir. As I have stated during the canvass and perhaps to you before, I had at one time held the view. that the power of the {jovernment to coin money was derived from the Constitution and was limited to the mere con- version of the precious metals into coin; but that in the progress of time the pub- lic mind had reached a point that the Government was furnishing that which served all the purposes of money. I think I stated that, in 1878, I took th that the Government should furnish all that was to be treated as mo public purposes. Mr. Cockrell: the people exclusively? und tor And should control its volume in the interest and benefit of Gen. Palmer: Unquestionably; that the Government was the sole money- making power of the country. Iadvanced these views in 1878 and they were published in article after article in the State Register, when 1 owned it. Some were written by Maj. Souther, under my direction, and some by myself. The following are some of the clippings from the State Register referred te by Senator Palmer: „There is not a man anywhere who opposes the coinage of silver who does not insist that Congress has the right to issue legal tender paper at pleasure, or who does not rest assured that Congress has the right to farm out the privilege of supplying the people with currency through banking corporations. Democrats, the fight for the silver dollar is more than forty years old. We won it önce against the Na- tional banks under the lead of Old Hickory, and by his bones, we'll win it again.”—Senator Palmer in State Register, Jan. 20, 1878. “Scratch an opponent of the coinage of silver and you will find a supporter of the national bank system, and you won’t be obliged to scratch very hard.’’—Senator Palmer in State Register, Jan. 25, 1878. “Tt is all very well to abuse the friends of the silver dollar as infla- tionists, thieves, repudiators, and all that sort of thing, but really the friends of the gold dollar ought to pay the same attention to the members of the convention who framed the-United States Constitu- tion and who made the silver dollar the unit and standard of value in this country.”—Senator Palmer in State Register, Jan. 24, 1878. “Tf there is any dollar more honest than the silver dollar of 87 1-4 grains (of pure silver) it has not been discovered in the cent- ury or more that the nation has existed. If there can be any such thing as a dishonest dollar that miserable sham trick and travesty of a coin, a gold dollar, exactly fills that designation.”—Senator Palmer in State Register, February, 1878. These are but a very few of such articles uttered by Senator Palmer during his ownership of the State Register at that time, Hundreds of others, equally as strong in their expressions, are found in the files of the State Register of 1878 and other years. _— 11 SBANMMK OFFICIAL ARRESTED. _ | Falsified His Accounts to Help His Brother Out of Trouble. .

„ e e eee nat SAAR EE Sa nee nn. roe INDIANA AND MICHIGAN. HEARD BY IMMENSE CROWDS. Goldbugs’ Pretense of Disinterested- ness Effectually Punctured and Free Silver Claims Presented. + SOUTH BEND, Ind., Sept. 4.—William J. Bryan journeyed through Michigan and marts of Indiana yesterday. He spoke rlefly at Adrian and Sturgis, Mich., and Elkhart and South Bend, Ind. 7 Following are pringipal parts of his ad- @ress at Elkhart, where he was introduced to an audlencs of 8,000 people by Gov. Mat- thews: It gives me great pleasure to enter the State of Indiana. I feel complimented that tthe distinguished executive of this great State is present to extend a welcome in per- gon. We in the West have always looked upon Indiana as friendly ground, and to her people as a people of congenial spirit. I am glad to be permitted even briefly to discuss in your presence the issue of this campaign. We are entering upon a cam- 7 n which stirs men’s hearts; a campaign which is drawing out the interests of all the people. I have not, in all my journey —— Nebraska to the sea, found a single lukewarm person, I have found some against us, but everybody was for or against us; no idlers anywhere. (Applause.) It shows how the American people are re- elizi their responsibility an 1 to exercise with intelligence and patriotism the right of suffrage when election day ar- rives. Each one must decide this question ‘for himself. As we crossed the bridge I noticed a sign, “‘No Driving Allowed.“ Remember that. (Great laughter.) There will be more attempts to drive in this campaign than any: in recent years; more attempts to coerce and intimidate. I want you to have that phrase printed on a card and carry it wherever you go—that no driving is to be allowed in this campaign. (Great applause.) I find here a little slip, printed upon an appropriate color—yellow. (Laughter.) It gays: “TI, the undersigned’’—a blank—‘‘in the em- loy of blank’’—that is a very appropriate lank, because the man who issued this considered the employe a blank (laughter)— I, a blank, in the employ of the blank rail- road company’’—it ought to be blankety. blank blank blank—(great laughter), ‘‘here- by make application for membership in the Railway Men's Sound Money Club.“ Why don’t they say gold club? Why do they attempt to conceal the word gold“ under the euphonious name of “sound money?“ A voice: They are ashamed of it.“ Yes, I believe that is the reason—‘‘do here- by pledge myself to use my vote and in- fluence’’—there is one good thing in this 1 if they attempt to tell you how to vote, point to this and tell them it is my vote and not yours— and do hereby pledge myself to use my vote and influence for the defeat of free coinage at the forthcoming election.“ Pay attention to this: I believe that such free coinage of silver would be injurious to my personal interests as an earner of wages as well as disastrous to the United States as a nation.’’ If the wage-earner ought to sign a state- ment declaring the free coinage of silver injurious to his personal interests, I want to ask you why the advocates of the gold standard who are engaged in other kinds of business do not make some statement in regard to their business? Why do not the eyndicates who have been misleading the United States Treasury, put in an applica- tion for membership in -a*club and declare that the free coinage of silver is Injurious to their personal interests? (Applause.) Why do not the oP ge erg classes in their Applications state that it would be injuri- bus to their personal interests? Why don’t the money changers and the attorneys of these great trusts and corporations write in their applications that the success of the Ch ticket would be injurious to their personal interests? (Applause.) They want it understood that the laboring man is in- fluenced by personal interests, but these great leaders of the gold standard are sim- ply interested in the public weal! There is a great difference between those who vocate bimetallism and those who advocate a gold standard. Ask a farmer why he wants bimetallism, and he says because it would be good for him. He is not worrying about somebody else. He has troubles enough of his own. It is the same with a laboring man, or business man, or professional man. They say at they cannot prosper unless the great producing classes on which everything rests also pros- 3 They all want bimetallism because it s good for themselves, as well as for the mass of the people. | Ask a financier why he favors the gold . Will he tell you ause it is good for him? You never heard one of them gay it. (Laughter.) They say that they want it so —— the farmer when he —— a dolla~ 0 whether they want it or not; use we love them better than our- es.“ (Great laughter. at is always feel- that he does not gee ughter.)

We won't have their approval, but it is an awfully high-priced approval, anyhow, to buy in these hard times under @ gold stan- dard. (Great laughter and applause.) AT SOUTH BEND. An Enormous Audience Listened to the Democratic Nominee. Mr. Bryan spoke last night here to an au- dience of 25,000 people. He was introduced by Benjamin F. Shively, Democratic can- didate for Governor of Indiana. He spoke in part as follows: „Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen— About a year ago I had the privilege of visiting this city as a guest at the invita- tion of your townsman, who was then rep- resenting this district in Congress, and it gratifies me very much on this, my second visit, to find him the candidate of our party for Governor of the State of Indiana. am glad to greet again the people of this city, and in the short time that I may be able to speak to you. I desire to discuss that ques- tion which is uppermost in the minds of all of you, the money question. If I should at- tempt to discuss * other issue, I am sure that I would not be able to interest you so well as if I devote my entire time to the subject of free coinage and how it is to af- fect your interests. “Our opponents are in the habit of de- claring that a question like the money ques- tion was too deep to be considered by the masses of our people, but our Government is based on the theory that the American people have not only the patriotism, but the intelligence necessary to sit in judgment upon any question which can arise. (Ap- plause.) When I find a man who says that the money question is too complicated for ou, I generally find a man who says that t is just about complicated enough for him. (Laughter.) When you find a man who says the money fuestion is too deep for you, and when I’ find a man who is just about deep enough for himself, and when I find a man who does not want you to bother yourself about such questions, I find a man who is willing to take upon his shoulders the burden of doing your think- ing and your acting on all occasions. And I have found that a man who as- sumes to be so much better than others that he is able to relieve them from all the re- sponsibilities of citizenship, is the man who cannot be trusted to look out for anyone except himself. (Applause.) A person who has so high an opinion of himself as to think that he only can act intelligently upon the money question is generally a man who thinks his own interests\are so much su- perior to the interests of anybody else that anyone’s interests are not to be considered but his own in any legislation upon the theory that you are not able to decide for yourselves ‘how this question affects you. J want to talk about some questions, in order that you may better answer them in your conversations with your neighbors. I suppose there are several different classes of people here to-night. There may be those who believe in a gold standard because they are benefited by a rise in the dollar. If there are any such, I am not very hopeful of bringing them to bimetallism. I have learned that, as a rule, people are inclined they find that a thing is 5 for them- selves they take it for granted that it is good for others, and when a man makes up his mind that a gold standard is good for him- self, he is generally willing to take it for granted that it is good for ag Se ages eise. I say that if there are any here o are benefited by a gold standard I am not hope- ful of converting them. “If, however, there are those who have advocated the gold standard under a mis- taken idea that it would be a good thing for them, I h I may be able 'to lead them to a better understanding of the subject. If there are bimetallists here who have been troubled by questions put to them which they could not readily answer, I desire to suggest answers to some of these questions in order to aid you in your work o read- ing this gospel. If there are those o be- lieve in bimetallism, I desire to deepen that conviction, so if you came here saying that bimetallism ought to be restored, want you to go away declaring that bi- metallism must be restored. “Now the first question to be considered is, ‘What is an honest dollar?“ We hear people talking about honest money. What do they. mean by honest money? Did you ever hear an advocate of the gold standard give the definition of an honest dollar? I will tell you the definition which you gen- 2 hear. It is th : An honest dollar is 8 lar which, when melted loses none of i value. That is what they tell you is an onest dollar. I waht to say to you, my * e that the man who gives you that eaten of an honest dollar has yet to earn the first principles of monetary sci- ence. (Great applause.) An honest dollar is the dollar ‘which retains the same general y at would be down that you h in legislating for who profit by ris sympathies are it is bu things which Owning classes ollars. If a person’s on- have given by the aver- in the dollar. “Su man roperty er ts, — have to sell about much e mon to able 77 — — man who thinks itself is the only test pe ghee ; | q +} — . 4 . £ . vy : 8 z ’ me old to | : = ome = "3 2 4 7 * . . * ft orn Ss, sua ~~ a a re * n “ave 7 a ** 3 * Purchasing power t a f 8 es ovday, to-day and the a use if mel lore anything.

I might have en or 1,000, because the definition that is.given by the advocates of a money, as they call selves, makes — power of the dollar. Whether dollars rise or fall is immaterial o them, accord- ing to the definition which they give. “In a Southern State, in a joint ‘debate, about a year ago, my opponent said to me: ‘Don’t you know that if we have free coin- age of silver and it drives the gold out of circulation, it will take 15 years to coin enough silver to 22 the place of gold? What would you do?’ There I wa, away off from home, among strangers. (Laughter.) I did not have time to think. I had to answer at once, and 80 I just blurted out that I would make more mints, (Laughter and applause.) He had never thought of the possibility of making more mints. Men calculating upon fifteen years of suffering! Why, my friends, it seems to me that the smallest child would say that rather than suffer for fifteen years we would make more mints and coin more money, if the people needed it. (Applause.) “But there is another part of that prop- osition. The man who made this statement wound up by saying that during these fif- teen years money would be so scarce that a silver dollar would be hard to get and a higher-priced dollar, measured by property, than a gold dollar is now. That is the worst of all absurdities. Just think of it. hy, gentlemen, you know that if silver would drive gold out it would“ be because silver was cheaper than gold. I say if you could imagine ch a contingency, if you could think for one moment that silver would be dearer than gold, then the gold would come back and drive the silver out. (Applause.) “But let me speak a moment on this flood of money. Did you ever stop to reason ou: how the free colnage of silver would hurt this country? Now, am not anxious to hurt tthe country. I ex t to live in this country, whether I live office or out. I have tried to reason out; I have tried to examine and find out in what way the free coinage of silver was going to ruin this country. Let us suppose ourselves under a free coinage of silver—how could we be in- ured by the foreigner who brings silver ere? Let us suppose it were the worst foreigner we could imagine, a foreigner who hates us worse than any man on earth. Suppose he came here to us under free coin- age to hurt us. How could he do it? Why, you say he could bring silver and have it coined. “But how could he hurt us in that — 4 Suppose he brought @nough silver to make a thousand dollars. He would take it to the mint and we would put the stamp on it and make it full legal dollars. He came with silver bullion and it is converted into a silver coin and the coin is his. Now let him start on his mission of the destruction of our laws. Well, I was going to suggest in the first place that he might take the money and go home. What would be the effect? We would have lost the cost of coinage and he would have lost the freight on silver both ways, and we can stand that longer than he can. (Applause.) What else could he do? He could just give us this money and go home, We can stand that longer than he can. (Applause and 1 What else could he do? know what you are thinking about. I do not claim to be a mind-reader, and yet, if there is a gold standard man in the audi- ence to-night I can tell what he is think- ing about. He is thinking that that man will bring his silver here and have it con- verted into silver dollars, have it exchanged for gold dollars and have it taken away. They say that would be dangerous. Where will he get the gold? He can’t exchange silver for gold until he can find the gold. You say he will take it to the Government and ask the Government to give gold in exchange. Under bimetallism he does not. The Government agrees to convert silver bullion into silver dollars and gold bullion into gold dollars, but it does not agree to make silver into gold or gold into silver. (Cheers.) Under monometalligm the Gov- — tries to redeem one money in an- other. ‘So, then, this man could not bring his silver here and have it converted into dol- lars and then exchange it for gold at the mint, unless the Government wanted to do it, and the Government would not want to do it, if to do so would hurt the American people; provided we had a Secretary of the Treasury who thought more of the American people than he did of syndi- cates.“ (Great applause.) ——_ SACRED CONFIDENCE.

GOLDBUG ORATORS RECEIVED WITH MARKED COLDNESS. STREET RAILWAY POLITICS. The Mass Meeting of Employes of the Union Depot Lines Was a Frost. The Sound Money Club of the employes of the Union Depot Railroad Co. will assemble in mass- meeting at the Northwestern Hall, corner of St. Louis and Elliot avenues, at 8:30 p. m. Thurs- day, Sept. 3, and listen to the discussion of the money question by able speakers. All employes, whether in favor of gold or silver, are respect- fully invited to be present.. By order of EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE. The foregoing is an exact copy of a notice received by every man employed on the Scullin street railroad lines Thursday. The men were given to 8 that cars would de run from t various division the hall, There were no threats made, but the men felt that if they were off duty at the time set for the meeting it would be to their interest to put in an appearance at Northwestern Hall. On that theory some 500 of the employes, not one in twenty of whom favored the Wall Street standard, attended the meeting of the “Sound Money”’ Club. President John Scullin did not consider the free coinage of silver a bad thing for himself or the country until he was turned down as a delegate to the Chicago Con- vention. He wanted to go to Chicago as a delegate, but slipped a cog at the Se- dalia Convention, and then he became a partial goldbug. When the Democratic State Convention met at Jefferson City to nominate a ticket, James Scullin, a brother of the astute Colonel, wanted the nomination for Railroad Commissioner. He did not get it, and then the Colonel became a goldbug of the thirty-third de- gree, and started to make goldbugs out of every man who depends upon the va- ohn corporations he controls for a livli- The meeting of Thursday night indicated the policy of the corporations very clear- y. President Scullin did mot go to the men and tell them they would be dismissed if they did not vote against Bryan and bimet- allism. His method was milder and less cal- culated to get him tangled up with the law that prohibits intimidation. The club was organized and an urgent request made for all the men, Democrats and Republi- cans, to take a hand in helping the party of Wall street to elect its ticket. The meeting Thursday was the flattest kind of a failure so far as enthusiasm was concerned. It was enthusiastic at times, but that was when the band played and the Mound City Orchestra regaled the meeting with popular selections. The goldbug ora- tors got a frost calculated to congeal the very marrow in their bones. The men were there, but they were not disposed to cheer a man for advocating a doctrine they dis- proved of. The meeting was suggestive of an Ar- menian congregation in a Moslem Temple. They were there not through faith, but The men were instructed to rendezvous at the Mound City car sheds on St. Louis ave- nue, east of Jefferson. At 8:15 cars began arriving from the other divisions loaded with conductors, motormen and other employes.

Affecting to scorn Populist, the Wall Street convention at Indianapolis has nominated a renegade Populist. Charg- ing the Democratic party ;with fusion with Popocracy, the Indianapolis conven- tion nominated a Popocrat elected to the Benate by a fusion between Democrats and Populists in which the Populists dic- tated the terms which Democrats ac- cepted because they were loyal to their party, of which Palmer was then the can- didate. “a In the treaty between Palmer and Pop- _ulists Cockrell and Moore, the day before Palmer’s election, Palmer pledged himself to the advocacy of measures looking to the remonetization of silver. He pledged himself to the support of nearly every- thing else in the Ocala platform. He Satisfied Populist Moore, a most contu- macious stickler for Populist ideas and doctrines, that he was a fit colleague for Peffer, who had just then been elected in Palmer and Peffer went into the Senate at the same time and practically under the samé auspices. It is nothing short of farcical that’ one of them should -*h&ve been chosen by the Plutocratic con- vention called to protest against fusion between Democrats and Populists on the silver issue. How can any honest oppo- nent of such a fusion vote for Palmer, 0 surrendered to Populists five years ago to make such a fusion possible? How can any man objecting to the Chi- _ ¢ago platform vote for a candidate on the Ocala platform which even the Populists who made it have since abandoned? . — — . ᷣ ¶f——— — DIRECTOR GRAWDHB’S WATCH KEYS Mr W. A. Crowder, a steam-heating Gontractor, testifies under oath that Di- *Pector Grawe of the School Board told him that he would do nothing more for the Powers company in the way of get- ting them contracts for heating schools, The reason given, according to Mr. Crow- der’s sworn statement, is as follows: “TI got them one school,“ added Mr. Grawe, “and there was nothing in it for me. I never sold them even a waton key.“ It is unlikely that Contractor Crowder had any motive for inventing such a story as this. If it is true, Mr. Grawe is about | as fit to be a school director as any con- Det in the penitentiary. A man who mos upon a position of trust as merely an instrument for fathering his private business will not hesitate to inflict a loss of thousands of dollars upon the city Whenever he thinks he can see in it a Chance to sell a few extra watch keys.” There are other schgol directors whose oonsciences do not rise above watch keys. Director Brady was not able to clear him- self of the implication that he had had the use of & $300 heating apparatus free for eleven months, and possibly would not have had to pay for it at all, in con- sideration of his vote for a certain system of heating for the schools. It is fortunate that the attorney for the School Board was defeated in his attempt to have the testimony in the Berry case taken before a commissioner instead of a notary. Now let the investigation go on unmercifully. Attorneys Alderson and McEntire would perform a great service to the olty if they could fasten upon some of these directors the corruption of which they have undoubtedly been guilty. ‘ — — . — --- - TWO PALMER PLATFORMS. What the Republican platform dared not assert for him, and what he has not dared to assert for himself, is asserted for McKinley in the Wall Street Indian- apolis platform. _ . After declaring for the single gold stan- dard, that document says: We assert the necessity of such intelligent @arrency reform as will confine the Govern- Ment to its legitimate functions, complete- ly separated from the banking business, and afford to all sections of our country & uniform, safe and elastic bank currency, under Government supervision, measured in volume by the needs of business. Instead of cash coin money we are to dave credit money issued by banks. But 1 this position accord with that er. Palmer, the Indianapolis candi- ~ Sees; in his understanding with the III. n five years ago? We quote e pe shorthand report of the con- — U: “Are you in favor of the national dank circulation?” do you believe that all se . F 1 ad . * 4. * * Ok. E asa * ‘the view that the power of the Govern- ment to coin money was derived from the Constitution, and was limited to the mere conversion of the precious metals into co but that in the progress of time the publ mind had reached a point that the Govern- ment was furnishing that which serves all the purposes of money. I think I stated that in 1874. I took the ground that the Gov- ernment should furnish all that was to be created as money for public purposes.“ Thigg speaks for itself. It was con- strued as flatism at the time. It was construed as Populism by the Populists. But nowhere has it ever been construed imate functions completely separated from the banking business.“ DRIVING GOLD TO EUROPE. The effect of our policy of discrimina- tion against silver has been to drive gold from the country and increase the gold holdings of European banks while at the Same time it has driven down the prices of our exports. : This is not a matter of theory, but of fact. L’Economiste European, an author- ity which no banker is likely to chal- lenge, states the amount of gold in European banks of issue Dec. 31, 1890, at $936,918,000, while on June 4 this year it stood at $1,572,000000—an increase of two-thirds in the six years. This has operated to contract our cur- fency and it has been accompanied by a steady rise in the price of the gold dollar. With gold reckoned at 100 in 1873, it had risen to 115.09 by Jan. 1, 1883, and to 144.72 by Oct. 1, 1893. On April 1, this year, it stood at 162. So that, accompanying the two-thirds increase in the stock of gold hoarded in European banks, there has been since the demonetization of silver by this country almost a two-thirds in- Grease in the power of the gold dollar to purchase silver bullion and commodities which fall in price as gold is forced up and silver down. A very simple calculation will show any one what this means to the States which export wheat, cotton, corn and provisions. Our exports of cotton, corn, wheat, flour, bacon and hams, lard, pork, beef, tobacco and cheese brought us in 1894 but $510,000,000 of European money, while at the prices of 1873 they would have brought $830,815,000. Our exports of the samé articles in 1895 brought us but $452,719,000, while at the prices of 1873 they would have brought us $932,091,000. Taking the two years together, the prices we would have got on the bimetal- lic standard of 1873 would have almost doubled the prices we did get on the gold basis of 1896. This makes it perfectly clear why the stock of gold fn European banks has been increasing so rapidly. As the prices of our exports are forced down, it takes two bushels of wheat to pay a debt to Europe which could have been paid in one bushel twenty-five years ago. Hence, as we get less for our exports, we have to make good the difference by paying out gold to our European creditors—to whom under this system we are forced deeper and deeper in debt every year. In our cities, throughout the United States, and especially in the cities of the Mississippi Valley, the wages of labor, the profits of merchants, the earnings of professional men, depend chiefly on the prices received for the exportable surplus of our farms and mines. We really pro- duce nothing in a city like St. Louis on which it is possible to live. What we do produce receives its value only from exchange with those who produce food, fuel.and the cotton and wool which makes our clothing. If these have money enough to buy what we produce or offer for sale in the cities, then they become our customers, we get their money, and its circulation in the cities gives employ- ment to an increasing numb ot men at rising wages, while gli lines of business, from dealing in real estate to blacking boots and crying newspapers for sale on the street, grow more active because cf the increased volume of money in circulation. Se —_— = urn BOLTERS CROWN THEIR KING. A convention of bolters has nominated for President the most confirmed and per- sistent bolter in history: Men without & party have selected as their candidate the historical man without a party. This is John M. Palmer’s sixth bolt. The first was from the Democratic party. The second was from the Illinois Repub- lican Senatorial caucus which had nom- inated Lincoln for Senator. The third was from the army of the United States in front of Atlanta. The fourth was from the Republican nomination of Grant in 1872. The fifth was from the Populist platform he indorsed at Springfield in 1891. 5 It is hardly necessary to inquire what is the platform upon which such a candi- date now stands. It must be admitted, however, that the platform fits the can- didate. It arraigns the Democratic, the Republican and the Populist parties, with all of which Palmer has, at some time in his career, broken faith. It seems to have been constructed with a view to the accommodation of a man.with a grudge against every form of political belief which has ever found expression or ad- vocacy in our politics. To do this the convention has fallen into some most gross and palpable ab- ‘surdities. Take, for instance, the plank asserting. that the Republican demand for higher tariffs grows out of dwindling rev- enues. It is declared that dwinding rev- enues are caused by stagnation in trade, but, realizing the danger of = a true statement as an argument against the existing gold standard, tie platform charges the stagnation in trade to “the Populist threat of free coinage” and Re- publican extravagance.” These grotesque inconsistencies lead naturally to the ab- surdity of saying: “We denounce protec- tion and its ally, free coinage of silver, as schemes forthe personal profit of the few at the expense of the many.” Here we have the charge that the Democratic and Republican parties are in league; that their antagonistic principles are harmoni- ous and concordant; that McKinley, Bry- an and the Populists are political friends and allies and all of them enemies of Palmer, the only just and virtuous man in politics. Can fatuity go further than this? As to Populism, Mr. Bryan does not star d upon the Ocala platform, and Mr. Palmer does. It is a matter of history and record that in 1691, to secure the votes of Cockrell and Moore, the Popu- lists in the Illinois Legislature, the In- ure wis 8 . 5 >? a we 2 4 ee r * * ~ : .

He will bolt his own candidacy and vote for William McKinley. And this will be his first bolt without a violation of faith. For the men who nominated him will all vote the same way. be Wharton Barker estimates the debt we now owe England and other countries at five thousand million dollars, On this interest of about $250,000,000 would have to be paid annually in gold while the country would wait for McKinley to ob- tain the consent of England to interna- tional bimetallism.“ . The overwhelming repudiation of Ben- jamin Harrison by the people in 1892 and ‘his subsequent rejection by the national convention of his party in 1896 are well- known facts, yet there are those who still insist that of the two men, Harrison and McKinley, the former is very much the superior man. The Indianapolis bolters think they will be able to turn Kentucky over to Mo- Kinley. They will not be able to change the result in a single county. Kentucky was a doubtful State only when the Dem- ocratic party was supposed to stand for the Wall Street policies the bolters rep- resent. —_— —— On April 1, 1896, the purchasing power of a gold dollar was 162 per cent as com- pared with the 100 per cent purchasing power of the same dollar in 1873. This is an increase of 30 per cent since January, 1891. As gold is forced up everything else except debts is forced down. i. Disfranchisement through intimida- tion may be just as effectual as dis- franchisement by legislation. Attempts are being made in all directions to dis- franchise employes who do not wish to wear a Wall street collar or serve Great Britain. The Indianapolis convention never would have been called but for William C. Whitney and the Standard Oil Trust. It represents the most dishonest money professional extortioners ever plundered from the American people. —ͤ—ũ—ö—à—4 . a a, The Wall Street programme is to call in the greenbacks, to demonetize silver per- manently and to allow nothing to circu- late except corporation notes. How long before Hanna intends to declare himself on it? 1 Texas is taking $20,000 of silver every day and could not pay her cotton pickers without it. There is no lack of object lessons to show the necessity of restor- ime the money of the Constitution. If Mr. McKinley were on the stage he would play Hamlet by leaving Ham- let out. In his letter of acceptance he omitted all reference to the gold reserve and the issuance of more bonds. * A joint debate between McKinley and Bryan would draw immensely.

After a while a cough sets in, at first dry, but after a few months it is attended with a greenish colored expectoration. The pa- tient feels tired all the while, and sleep does not seem to afford any rest. After a time he becomes nervous, irritable and gloomy, and has evil fore- bodings. There is a giddiness, a sort of whirling sensation in the head when rising up suddenly. The bowels become costive; the skin is dry and hot at times; the blood becomes thick and stag- nant; the whites of the eyes become tinged with yellow; the urine is scanty and high colored, de- positing a sediment after standing. There is fre- quently a spitting up of the food, sometimes with a sour taste and sometimes with a sweetish taste; this is frequently attended with palpitation of the heart; the vision becomes impaired with spots be- fore the eyes; there is a feeling of great prostra- tion and weakness.

It has failed to hurt or to benefit a living creature.” DUBLIN, Sept. (In discussing the Irish conventjon, Patrick Cox of Rochester said: J think that when we return and explain what we have seen, the outcome of the convention will be of widespread influence for good in the United States. As the Irish party ‘is not composed of servant girls, as is commonly said, but of thinkin men, the work of the convention is boun to result in lasting effects. If the Irish in Ireland doff their coats now and work in real earnest, they will receive strong backing in the United States, financially and oitherwise. We have been surprised and delighted with what we have seen,” Mr. Cotagan said: “The convention ig an unquestioned success, and reflects cred- it upon the Irish at home and abroad. Irish- men and their descendants the world over will look back to it with pride. If it is not an absolute union of the Irish race to- day, the foundation for a solid support of the Irish party has been well and truly laid., If the minority will be influenced by the/solemn appeal of the convention to recognize the majority rule, the aspira- tions\of all Irishmen will soon be realized.” DILLON THREATENED. A Mob of Dublin Roughs Makes Ugly Demonstrations. DUBLIN, Sept: (After the adjournment of the Irish Nationa] Convention, yester- day, Mr. Dillon, escorted by 50 or 60 mem- bers of the convention, walked up Sackville street, which was densely crowdei. The delegates were followed by a noisy mob of about 1,000 Dublin roughs, who had been athered about the hail who were ev! dently not in sympathy with ch? Dillonites. The leaders of the mob kept shuuting: “To hal with Dillon,” etc,, and stones and other missiles began flying through me air. To these cries the Dillonites réplied by singing “God Save Ireland,” increasing the riotous demonstration. The police on “+ were not able to cope with the roughs and re-en- forcements had to be hurried to the scene. The police soon turned into Sackr'lle street in strong numbers, and were just in time to stop what was beyond doubt a growing riot, which might have hai most serious conse- quences, for there were threats of lynching, thrashing and ducking Dillon, causing him and his party to hurriedly take refuge in the Impertal Hotel, which was afterward surrounded by a strong force of police, which kept the rioters at bay.

PUT THEIR TRUST IN A DEMURRER SCHOOL DIRECTORS CLAIM TO BE A PRIVATE CORPORATION. JUDGE RUSSELL DOUBTS IT. He Will Hear Argument as to Whether an Investigation of Con- tracts Is Proper. Apparently unwilling to go into the merits of the injunction suit against the St. Louis School Board, the defendant directors, through Lawyer I. C. Terry, Friday morn- ing, tried to defeat the action without the hearing of testimony. The matter was set for 10 o’clock in Judge Russell’s division of the Circuit Court, and when the case’ was called, Di- rectors McClain, Grawe, Ulrich, Berg and Kissner were among those present. Draughtsman Sprague, from the Building Department, was on aud as a messenger with voluminous plans and specifications. Acting School Board Attorney Terry filed his return to thg injunction, and then ar- | gued in support of it. The return was a general denial, and declared there was ro equity tn the bill for the injunction. Law- yer Terry declared that the board was a private corporation, and, if it wanted to, might pay $1,000 for a horse without the courts having a right to interfere. The directors, Mr. Terry declared, were not scalawags, but trustees for the city, and the only question was whether the plaintiffs had not thrown themselves out of court by seeking to enjoin the making of a contract which was (lready made. It made no difference, since the contract was already made, whether the proposed work could be done for $1 a school. . Judge Russell said Mr. Terry’s argu- ment was in the nature of a demurrer, and asked Lawyers Alderson and McEntire if they would be satisfied to argue and sub- the case on the demurrer, ° Lawyer Alderson declined and eubmitted an affidavit of W. F. Cozzens, stating that he had been in the heating business thirty years and that the work on the schools pro- _— by the Peck-Williamson Co. could be one at 50 per cent less than was demanded by thet company.

Interesting revelations as to the devious methods of secret service men are prom- ised in the event that the Federal Grand Jury returns true bills against the persons arrested in the raid on Dr. Mary Walter's house on Pendleton avenue. ~ Jimmy Brunell, a veteran counterfeiter and retired crook, who made spurious money and arrested others for the same of- fense thirty years ago, is camped on the trail of Charles Ulrich, the spy who tempt- 9 Ralph Crese, Dr. Walter and her —— m.

Brunell scouts the idea that Ulrich has reformed. * He claims to have accurate information that the spy is now in Cumminsville, a Cin- cinnati suburb, making counterfeit plates,or altering some 9 he made years and years Ago, when he as the most expert en- gravei in the trade. 5 Brunell claims further to have information to the effect that the money made from these plates is to be used in the South in the interest of the Republican party. Whether his theory as to the use the money is to be put to is correct or not, Brunell believes in it thoroughly. His information comes from members of the class of which he and Ulrich were shin- ing lights thirty years ago,, and he does not admit the possibility of a mistake.

Sherrington is but 18 years old, and he — WILLIE SHERRINGTON. (The Boy Burglar.) looks younger, but he has a record. He has tried to kill three officers, has escaped from prisons, and still he has gound time to cut something of a swath in society. . Sherrington will be held to answer to three burglary charges. Sherrington is not his right name, He is the son and namesake of Walter Dor- man, a respectable and well-to-do merchant of Cleveland, O. The boy was educated in the public schools. He became remarkably proficient as a pianist, and was a favorite in society. When he was 16 years old he had to leave Cleveland because of two burglaries he had committed there. He came to St. Louis and stopped at a fashionable boarding-house conducted by Mrs. Beggs, at 284 Locust street. Mrs. Beggs is the mother of Walter E. Sharp, who was mysteriously shot one Sunday night last winter. : Dorman went under the name of Sherring- ton in St. Louis. He soon became known in the neighborhood of his boarding-house as “Mrs. Beggs’ Willie.” He became a favorite. He could play the piano so well that the ladies became charmed with him. He won all their hearts and while he was not entertaining them he was breaking into and looting stores. One night last spring a shoe store at Leffingwell and Washington avenues had been entered by burglars and a wagon load of shoes stolen. The 1 was traced to a room in the rear of 3 ores street and the police raided the room. hen the officers got into the room they found Sherrington and an- unknown boy es- caped, but Sherrington was arrested. He shot at the policeman twice, but each time Mie Were fount 30 paren ots ere fdun p 0 5 and the shoes were 8 Four Courts. Then Mrs. Beggs and a lot of church peo- ple became interested in Willie’s behalf, and tried to get him out of the trouble, but it was no use, so Mrs. Beggs went on Sher- rington’s bond, and the youthful criminal was released with an indictment of bur- glary against him. 2 He had been out but a few days when he began to rob and steal again. He broke into a hardware store at Olive street and stole a barrel of cutlery. He forced open the door of the furnishing goods store at 3401 Olive street and cart off a wagon d of goods. The police got on his track, and he left the city, jumping his bond. He went to Chicago. It was supposed that Mrs. Beggs did not know where he was, as she asked the police to find him, and even offered $50 reward for his return, so that she would mot have to pay the amount of the bond. 5 1 eS CAREER OF A LAD WHO BREAKS | once ‘Have You no more Wit,’ said a Passer-by, 2 Be ‘than f WAS MRS, BEGGS’ PROTEGE. | ken ; n the 8 — 2 He — 2 Son shouldered s ong In that Fashion Ther n, and their laughter that the Ola M tion at the result of his isfaction to Ey ae the River, and m AV ve ery ir Hands in the shape of a and 4 pee age ro along along ani “Have You no more Wit than to trudge — like this when You might be storing up All Sorts of Political Favor for The Man who A inted Lou?“ Commissioner Milner climbed up on the Department Payroll and hit it a Great Swat with a Political Club.

Its capacity was 50 gallons of spirits a day, which, when rectified, would produce abeut 400 gallons of the dyed fluid handed over the bar where whisky is called for at the less impos Saloons of the city. If such a“moonshine distillery was con- ducted in the mountains of Tennessee it would be in a cave protected by guards, armed with Winchesters. The New York establishment, however, was conducted so openly that any passer-by along Seventy- ninth street could lock in the windows. It was in the basement of a five-story flat building, in as respectable a neighborhood as there is in New York. The other tenants of the building were not suspicious of the three Russians who last winter rented the basement of the building and commenced the manufacture of what they said were soda water syrups. These men gave as their names Fischi Shapuro, Loeb Wolfinger and Max Segal. They went to work in their little establish- ment every morning at 6 o’clock and stayed until late at night. The first to become suspicious was 2 Deputy Internal Revenue Collector Joseph to] E. Nejedly. He investigated and report- ed to Revenue Agent A. H. Brooks.

The agents found a completely equipped distillery. The still was in the kitchen. In a big reser- voir there were 50 gallons of the red hot liquid ready for the market. Next to the distillery was the room. There were seven big barrels of mash fermenting.

SKETCH OF THE OMAHA MAN. Gen. J. H. Mullen of Minnesota IS Elected Senior Vice Com- mander-in-Chief. ST. PAUL, Minn., Sept. 4—When nomin- ations were declared in order in the Grand Army Encampment this morning, D. R. Bal- lou of Providence, R. I., was nominated for Commander-in-Chief by Comrade Spooner öt the same State; Judge M. L. Haywood of Nebraska presented the name of Maj. Thaddeus S. Clarkson of Omaha; the name of F. H. Hobson of Kentucky was offered by Gen. Case of Tennessee; John C. Linehan of New Hampshire was brought forward by Daniel Coggswell of that State, .and Rear Admiral Meade was presented by a Dakota delegate. « Seconds for the nomination of Clarkson came quickly from all over the hall, but one of the first men up was Admiral Meade, who withdrew his own name. It at once became evident that Maj. Clarkson would win, and all other names were withdrawn and he was nominated by acclamation. Maj. Clarkson was at once called to the and acknowledged the honor con- Gen. J. H. Mullen of Minnesota was elected Senior Vice-Commander-in-Chief, having been designated for that honor by the Department of Minnesota, the custom to give that position to the State holding the encampment. Thaddeus Stevens Clarkson was born at ettysburg, Pa., in 1840. He was educated three miles from the great battlefield of} Antietam. He enlisted April 16, 1861—within two hours after the apppearance of Presi- dent Lincoln’s call for 75,000 men for three monthé—in Co. A, ist Illinois Artillery. He went to Cairo, served under Gen. Grant there; re-enlisted for the war July 16, ** was promoted Dec. 1, 1861, to Adjutant o the 13th Illinois Cavalry: served with that regiment and on the staff of Gen. John W. Davicson, participating in the battle with that command on the march to Helena and Little Rock, Ark. He was assigned to command it during the Arkansas campaign. In August, 1863, he assisted in raising the $d Arkansas Cavalry of union white men of tht State; was promoted to Major and com- manded the regiment until nearly the close of the war, participating in nearly all of the battles under Gen. Steele. On Nov. 11, 1862, he married Mary Beecher Matterson, and to-day has five children. He came to Nebraska, settling in Omaha with his brother, the late Bishop Clarkson, in March, 1866, and has lived in the State for thirty years. He was Postmaster of Omaha under President Harrison’s last ad- ministration. Maj.

What Chairman Cook Thinks of the 3 Boltocratic Ticket. 4 The nomination of Palmer and Buckner by the Indianapolis Convention came in for very little discussion at the State Demo- cratic headquarters. The officers of the Committee paid about as much attention to the gathering of assistant Republicans as they would to one of Uncle Filley’s haracteristic. ches. When Chairman Cook Was asked Friday what he thought of the ticket he said: Well, the personnel of the ticket cuts but little figure as the men who made it do not intend to vote for their nominees, Any person can 8 see that the nominees are put up as stalking horses to draw votes away from Bryan and en- his defeat, if . ble. But mer if weak, even for a Boltocratic candidate. He is also inconsistent.

The votes of Moore and Cockrell, the Popu- Hist legisiators,sent him to Washington and the country is aware of the fact. If they nad not voted for him he would not have been elected. But what's the use of dis- cussing the ticket, when the motive of its nomination is so apparent. It is to deceive the voters and I don’t believe they will fool many as 8,000 in the entiré State of Mis- * TRIPLE HANGING. Three Men Swung at Paris, Tex., for Murder. Special to the Post-Dispatch.

MICHAELS’ HARD LUCK. Docked Five Days Salary Because His Boss Died. Henry Michaels, an assistant weigher on the bridge scales, is looking for the Mayor to tell him a hard luck story. Michaelis is appointed by the weigher and gets $50 a month whenever he gets it. Last month he was put down on the pay roll for only $40.32, therefore he made a great row. He went to the Comptroller, but could not get any more there so he sought the Mayor. he Comptrolier’s officials explain the difficulty by saying that about the middle of the month the weigher, August Homan, died, thereby annuling the appoint- ment of Michaels, who remained unappoint- ed until Mr. Elias Houser’s was appointed to Homan’s piace and re-appointed Michaels. He was docked the five days, however, he was out of office. MISS SHINNICK’S PROMOTION. Named as Principai of the New Gravois School.

Not this alone, but the $5 that he paid into the treasury of the Figaro Matrimonial Bureal in order that he might secure the bride and the incidentals was also missing when he realized that his short, sweet dream was over.

Mr. F. Reis, the manager, received him and showed him a list of eligible ladies. But Herman was impressed with the advertisement he had read and wanted to meet the adver. tiser.

Noock waited until closing time with great impatience, but Miss Hertz failed to come. Then he feared he had been passed up. He determined to call on Miss Hertz at her home, and was chagrined to think he had a to ask her address. asked Mr. Reis for this, but was told that the $5 he had paid was simply for the meeting, and the bureau had no right to give the address.

I found in the morning, upon crawling out of my berth, that the train was standing stil. The porter told me it had been standing thus for an hour and a half, while I had been sleeping the sleep of the just. I dressed and peeped out, and saw that we ‘were alenaside the platform of a country station. I took a good breakfast in the dining car, and then went out to stroll up and down the platform. .

I reckon there is time enough before we are able to get out of this.” I settled — 93 in the absent stoker’s seat and prep ten. “It wasn’t such a long time pack, said the engineer, only a year ago last spring.

By and by the little gong above my head clanged sharply, and with a puff and hiss of escaping steam we were off into the night and storm, rattling over junctions, past . — lights, and between long lines of car- — till, with a roar and a rumble, we rushed over the long iron pe and away through the hills, waki slumbering echoes with our shrill w sate. “Then I pulled the throttle wide open, and the clank and roar soon settled into a hum, for old % was doing her best, and we were making fifty miles an hour. “The darkness was intense, save where the headlight, an electric device, 2 its funnel of light into the gloom. a big fire, and kept steam up to a high pres- sure, so that we fairly flew past sleeping hamlets and still farm houses. “At our first watering station I made sure that all was working smoothly, while Jim which he took ted the “headlight.

But we're so near the bridge ‘we "ll take a look at it.’ We took our lanterns and went ahead, leaving Jim with the engine; he looked frightened to death. But I tell you, we hadn’t ‘gone five rods before we stopped in horror. “There at our feet lay a black chasm, filled with the roar of the river, as swollen with the spring rains, it dashed down toward the jake. The bridge was washed away. “Only a few splinters of wood and twist- ed iron clung to the abutment, while now, far out over the blac 88, the awful black figure of a woman ced on the thin air, relieved so the shaft of light that the headlight threw. “It was flinging its arms out as if in wild glee.

Was that the thing you saw when you stop the train? he asked. „Woll, it’s 8 moro than luck that saved us to-night, Frank.’ We went back slowly to the oo feel- ing very queer, and thankful, t can assure you. Several passengers had come running forward by this time. Among them was a young fellow from Chicago, about 18 years old, who was smarter than the whole of us, as it turned out. “When he was told of the woman in black he turned and looked at the locomo- tive headlight. Then he ran up toward it. I looked up as he did so, and I saw a peculiar spot on the glass. * Foy ay your woman in black? the And there it Was, sure enough~that game moth miller you see there in the frare.
