Ew YORK, Oct. 5—Biliott ug the work of the campaign thus far and the prospects for ‘ie few remaining weeks before electbon day. Mr. Danforth says in jet: °°. “The State campaign is making very grat- ifying progress. I am constantly receiving encouraging advices from all parts of the Btate, showing that the tide is turning in our direction. The people seem to be get- Bes ting at the true inwardness of the situation and to appreciate where their interests lie, This is a victory itself. : a “Mr. Bryan’s recent vsit here bas left an umpresslon that no other candidate has ever - gucceeded in producing. His earnestness, sincerity, irrefutable erguments, and plain, straightforward reasoning have won over thousands of recruits to our ranks. “There is no gainsaying the fact that Bry- f in the Twin Cities of Greater ew York have made a revolution in quar- 5 rs hitherto inimical to him. Business men, _ ‘who were led to believe that it was to their interest to oppose him, have experienced a | of heart since they heard his power- | ful, convincing arguments in favor of the ee tause of the people.“ At yesterday’s meeting of District Assem- „ No. 220, of the Knights of Lebor, which ju iction over all matters pertaining J ade it on Long Island and ove? more than. forty affiliated jocal assembles, the candidacy of William Jennings Bryan was formally and enthusiastically indorsed.

The whole ground was gone the French Minister of the Inte- the Director of Public Safety and French and Russian detectives. that it would be running a great risk to take the Emperor and Empress into such den. Any malefactor standing at a window could throw a bomb into their carriage. The fact that they did so shows that the talk at Scotland Yard about a conspiracy to blow up the Czar and Queen Victoria is not so idle as the Paris press would make believe. M. Faure has, however, been able to se- cure the presence of the Czar, in company with himself, at a review of 70,000 soldiers at the Camp of Chalons. M. Faure’s depart- ure at the Grand West-of-France maneuv-. ers of last week prepared France to see him on horseback along with the Czar. The ex- ample set by Carnot and Casimir Perier was thought to have bound him to appear in a carriage drawn by six artillery horses, held with artillery traces and ridden by artil- lerymenp acting as postillions.

Corps Diplomatique, which will present their homages to the Czar and Czarina at Versailles, will contain no such diplomats as Lord Stair, the Duke of Portland, the Earl of Albemarle, the Conde de Haro, the Duke of Osuna. The grand bodies of the State will also be received. They are formed of men who have pushed their way on and up and are ready to show themselves in all but restraint of manner utter courtiers. Original portraits and busts of Peter the Great, the Catherines and Paul and Alexander I. have been brought down from the attic gallery without climbing lofty stairs. The different portraits of Marie Antoinette will be sub- mitted in the same way to their inspection, as also the miniature taken of Catherine the Great just after she became Empress. A wonderful work of art it ia. Scaffoldings have been removed at en- ormous cost from the terraces, fountains and basins have been repaired and a fleet of eighteenth century royal barges furbished up to take the imperial visitors by the canal facing the west front of the palace to the Trianons. This excursion is to follow a lunch in the Gallery of Battles and a long rest of the imperial visitors in the suite of small rooms fitted up by Marie Antoinette as a worivate residence. They are pokey little rooms and all look out on dingy, narroy courtyards. But they are different from the State rooms, the andeur of which was wearisome and the iscomfort dreadful. The small rooms are a bath-room, salon and reading-room; they look like a doll’s house. Fluted brocade or satin of tender and yet lively shades cover the walls. The furniture is dainty, but it is in the style affected by mercenary beauties of the corps du ballet towards the end of the last century. Old courtiers were shocked at the frivolous prettiness of these rooms. In the blue- room or salon there is a dainty sofa in sky blue with gilt frame in a niche set round with mirrors. The lovely Queen whose fate was so tragical liked to see her beautiful head in front in profile and vanishing profile. She ordered in three : mirrors to be set at right angles. But, the first time she went to survey herself in them at one of thé corners she beheld— what?—a headless body, and sank fainting on the sofa. She was constantly meeting with incidents and facing catastrophes that seemed presages of coming woes. In this respect Nicholas and Alexandra resemble her. Their wedding was on the morrow of his father’s funeral. The first year of their reign was blackened by the first set of Armenian massacres, in which „000 people perished. Their coronation was marked by. the appalling catastrophe of Moscow, and the day they reached Vi- enna the first news they received was that fresh massacres had taken place.» Then, on their return journey from Vienna Prince ff whom history must find guilty of complicity with the Sultan, died as the were | out of the train to strete their legs. When they were enjoying rest at the pa- triarchal Court of Denmark the family Cir- cle then was appalled to learn of the dy- namite conspiracy.

PORTSMOUTH, England, Oct. 5.—The Czar and Czarina of Russia sailed from this port for Cherbourg, France, at 7 o’clock this morning. Their yacht, the Pole Star, was ac- companied by the English squadron, which will retire when the royal guests are met by | the French Squadron. zar would not have objected to ride the life of her husband. If she rode in the fame carriage with him and the President, one of the gentlemen would have had to sit with his back to the horses, which is con- sidered undignified. riages, which should go the first? lantry would have given the pas to the one containing the Czarina. She was forbidden by her doctor to go on horseback. It is now settled that M. Faure and the Czar, with an escort of generals, are to ride before her ‘carriage at Chalons—that is, should she feel well enough to go to the review after a very fatiguing three days’ bout of sight-seeing and festivity in Paris, and a run down to Chalons between midnight and 9 in the morning, which only leave an hour’s time for dressing and going to the camp. Th® Czar and Czarina arrived here last evening at 6 o’clock in the Queen’s special train, from Ballater, in the Scottish High- lands, where they ‘took the train leavin Balmoral. The police, both English and Russian, maintained a strie watch of every mile of the route from the north, and were observant of the crowd here. But there were no signs of anything but cor- diality toward the nation’s guests. All the ships in the harbor were decked out in bunting, and all had the Russian flag flying at the main. The crews of the squadron of war-ships in the harbor manned the yards as the imperial pair were being conveyed on board the yacht Pole Star. The Czar and Czarina spent the nigh* in Portsmouth harbor on board the Pole Star. There is an impression that the inter- views between the Czar and the Marquis of Salisbury can not have failed to result in good effect. | The mammoth Imperial train proved un- manageable and dangerous. In going round the Girdle Railway, from Vaugirard to Passy Green, where the Imperial party are to alight, it flattened out the rails and ran off the Had it not been going at a snail’s pace th would have been a grave, not to say fatal, accident. Russian railways run in a straight line from one great city to another without regard for intermediate burgs or villages. As the whole country 14s flat for thousands of miles there are no more steep gradients than abrupt dends. The colossal weight of the Imperial train, 430 tons, on a downward grade might ve eaused a catastrophe. A train, therefore, Was arranged to re- place that of the Emperor, waich will afford greater accOmmodation and be only half the weight, but it will not be consecrated unless his Imperial Majesty particularly de. sires that place be made for the Icon or icture of the patron saint, with a lamp urning before it. There is a chapel in the regular imperial train, with Icons of the Virgin and child, of St. Alexander Newsky, St. Olga and St. Nicholas, the Czar’s patron saint, and also the patron of little children. | In Russia he is regarded as a sort of Fath- er BR gece 1 @ nursery compartments will be mi im the French specially arranged A the other hand, to ght A 4 Own train, and Stance before them.

BAD LUCK PURSUES HIM. Gale Destroys Decorations Made to Honor the Ozar. CHERBOURG, France, Oct. 5.—The bad luck which seems to cling to the Czar showed itself to-day. terrific squall blew away the rich trappings and hangings which decorated the way from the landing stage to the hall of the Arsenal. Hundreds of men were set to work to repair the damage. | At 8 o’clock the French northern squadron, consisting of twenty-one vesse left the harbor in single file, a gale of wind blowing. e storm increased in fury until it was feared that the imperial yacht, Pole Star, would receive a severe shaking up and have difficulty in making’ port. At noon the news was signalled that the Russian imperial yacht Pole Star had joined the French squadron and was proceeding to the port, with the French warships at each side of her. The imperial guests will, after reaching the landing, and being formally welcomed by President Faure, proceed along a covered way to the hall of the Arsenal. The in- terior of the Arsenal building known as the magazine has been exquisitely decorated and turned into a reception hall, a banquet- ing room and a diplomatic hall. A line of rails has been laid in the Arsenal grounds from the railroad proper to the door of the diplomatic hall. The Czar and Czarina will go on board the imperial train at the hall this evening at 9 o’clock and proceed to Paris, where they are booked to arrive at 6 entry into Paris, o'clock to-morrow morning They will make a state going to the Russian Embassy, where they will be housed during their five days’ stay in France.

DENVER, Colo., Oct. 5.—At 8 o’clock this morning the largest locomotive ever op- erated in the West, and one of the largest in the United States, pulled out from the Union Depot here for Pueblo, on its trial run, The train consists of forty-five cars and is about 1,800 feet long. Taking into consideration the heavy grades from this city to Palmer Lake, this is a remarkable heavy train for a single locomotive. The new engine is of such huge propor- tions that the largess” locomotives operated by the roads runn:rig into Denver are insig- nificant in comparison. The weight of the engine proper with two gauges water is 75 tons, and the weight of the tank fully equipped is fo re a tons. The tank has a capacity of 5, gallons and the coal ca- is Swelve tons. This would permit, if it were necessary, a trip to Pueblo and re- turn, 240 miles, without replenishi fuel or water supply. 19 is estimated that the engine will make seventy-five miles an hour under any but the most extraordinary circumstances. If it meets the expectations of Henry Schlacks, Superintendent of Motive Power of the Denver & Rio Grande Railroad, by whom i» was planned, the running time of the fast trains between Denver and Pueblo will be reduced to a mile a minute. The — — to-day were President Jet - fery, Superintendent Sample, Mr. Schlaks, a representative of the Baldwin company, the makers; Traveling Engineer F. P.

Those who go to the Auditorium to-night will hear the most expensive speech that ha#been delivered or that is likely to be de- livered in St. Louis during the campaign. Mr. Bourke Cockran is one of the high- priced lawyers of New York City. The real cause of his quarrel with Mr. Croker was that Mr. Croker claimed that he (Cockran) was using the prestige of his position as a Tammany Hall leader to obtain big fees for legal services, none of which he was con- tributing to Tamman 'S coffers. When he was turned down by Tammany, Cockran be- came a sort of pet of the New York pluto- crats, and they have made it to his ad- vantage to advocate their cause in the pres- ent campaign. The New York Journal is authority for the statement that Mr. Cockran was re- tained by the New York syndicate of pluto- crats to deliver three speeches a week dur- ing the campaign, for which he is to be paid $100,000. If he delivers three speeches a week for eight weeks, it is easily figured out * the cost of eath speech is upwards of „000. who attend the Auditorium to-night is to es- timate whether or not Mr. Cockran’s speech is worth $4,000 to the plutocrats whose cause he advocates. Spokesmen like Mr. Cockran come high, but the international banking syndicate that makes $11,000,000 profit on one Government loan is able to pay for them. Mr. Cockran spent Monday forenoon tak- ing a bath, making an elaborate toilet and keeping a distinguished group of wealthy gentlemen kicking their heels together in the hotel corridor until it suited his elegant leisure to admit them to his presence. That bath was the longest one on record at the St. Nicholas. It was started at 8:30 a. m. and at 10 o’clock Chief Clerk Beatty was still telling callers that he was tubbing away. Mr. Cockran’s colored valet, an addition to his “entourage” since he became a gold- bug orator, assisted at his ablutions, while his private secretary, also of recent ac- quisition, went through the orator’s letters and telegranis. In the middle of the morning Mr. Cock- ran’s valet came down and ordered his mas- ter’s breakfast. He is a big, brown, yellow- skinned fellow. He would say nothing but that Mr. Cockran had just left his tub, but was not yet dressed. About this time Dr. Thomas O' Reilly dropped in and attempted to send up his card. He was informed that Mr. Cockran was not to be disturbed for any one. Just a few minutes before 10 o’clock Mr. Frederick N. Judson dropped in. He was — too, when he tried to send up a oard. Well, I've an engagement with him for 10 o’clock,’”’ said Mr. Judson. But 10 o’clock came and Mr. Cockran did not appear. As time wore on Messrs. R. Graham Frost and Edward C. Cunningham dropped in. They wore Palmer and Buckner buttons and little slips of yellow ribbon. They helped Mr. Judson wait uutil Mr. Cockran came down 5° mend his broken 10 o’clock engagement. The goldbug circle was further augment- ed by Fred Lehman, George Tansey and Wm. M. Reedy. Wuen Broker James Campbell arrived Mr. Judson saluted him in complimentary tones as the Mark Hanna of Missouri,” but whether in deference to his qualities as a producer or “‘bulldozer’’ is a matter for gentle inference. Mr. Campbell, though, will proceed to buy himself a pair of dollar mark pants and live up to Mr. Judson’s appellation. Mr. Peter L. Foy, and his son, Julius Foy, arrived about 10:30 o’clock, and were sur- prised that Mr. Cockran was not yet about. They were more surprised when they dis- covered that their cards would not be sent up. Mr. Cockran’s secretary, Mr. Joseph Don- nelly, came down and circulated among the members of the goldbug reception commit- tee. He told them that Mr. Cockran would be down presently. The gentlemen twirled their thumbs and cracked their heels and tried to look pleasantly expectant while Mr. Donnelly’s presently“ stretched out into a weary half hour. The goldbug contingent enjoyed itself at first discussing the size of McKinley’s ma- jority in Missouri, then as their wait grew wearisome they fell to speculating on the cause of Mr. Cockran’s lengthy ablutions. Some thought the Democratic atmos- phere of St. Louis had left an unusually unpleasant deposit on Mr. Cockran’s gold er — a Mr. Tansey thought perhaps Mr. Cockran had read the scheduled wardrobe for gold- bug orators published some days back in the Post-Dispatch and was trying to live up to the oratorical requirements of the Missouri “Sound Money” State Committee. At 11 «’clock the newspaper men who had been enjoying the spectacle of an ex-Tam- many Hall Congressman keeping a group of milltonaires and society swells waiting on him for an hour, managed to get their cards sent up to Mr. Cochran’s room.

MARRIED HIS DEAD SWEETHEART. STRANGE EXPERIENCE OF CHAS. ‘THORPE, AN ENGLISHMAN. THE POWER OF A MEDIUM. The Bride Died Forty Years Ago, but Appeared in Spirit Form and the Ceremony Was Performed. CINCINNATI, O., Oct. 5.— Charles Thorpe, aged 65, a wealthy gentleman of Birming- ham, England, has been married to the sweetheart of his youth, who had been sep- arated from him by death for over 40 years. The wedding occurred at a private resi- dence on Seventh street, and was witnessed by a number of highly respectable and in- telligent people, some of whom are well known to society, and who are willing to vouch for the occurrence, Among those present were Dr. H. M. Slosson and wife of this city, who were in- vited there by a spiritualistic medium, who claims she is gifted with the power of ma- terializing spirits. In speaking of the occurrence, the doctor and Mrs. Slosson said that it was the most remarkable demonstration they had ever witnessed. They also said they were fully convinced that no fraud or deception had been practiced. While the medium was visiting the large cities of the country pro- pounding the doctrines of spiritualism and giving exhibitions of spiritualistic manifes- tations she met Mr. Thorpe at Omaha. He called upon her at the hotel, and in the course of a conversation said that while a yourg man living in England he was en- aged to marry a woman who had died be- ore the date set for the wedding, and it was his ardent desire to converse with her. The medium granted him a sitting. Mr. Thorpe afterwards in speak.ng of the occurrence sald he met his sweetheart in the form of a materialized spirit. About a dozen sittings were had in different towns. At Chicago Mr. Thorpe consulted the me- dium and after tellin her that he had gained the consent of his former sweetheart, he requested that a marriage ceremony performed. This being a new departure in spiritualism, the medium doubted that the arrangements proposed by Mr. Thorpe could be carried out. She, however, expressed a willingness to further test her powers as a medium, so she granted Mr. Thorpe a trial, setting the place for the wedding in this city. n the afternoon preceding the event Mr. Thorpe arrived in Cincinnati, and after consulting with the medium went to a florist and ordered an abundance of flow- ers to adorn the room in which he was to be married. The test was to be made at 9 o’clock in the evening. At 8 o’clock those who were bidden assembled. There were less than a dozen persons present. At 8:30 o’clock Mr. Thorpe arrived. The room was darkened and not a single ray of light could be seen anywhere. Mr. Thorpe was stationed at a point near the cabinet. For some time all eat silently in the darkness and gazed at- tentively towards the cabinet, expecting nifestation. ‘ A last there was a sound like the rustling of a curtain as 22 3 9 — e @ ure. - bree gos oy the — rays faintly illuminating the face and form of Mr. Thorpe and giving him a ghostly appearance. is face was then turned towards the cabinet. ö Those who witnessed the strange proceed- ings were startled upon beholding just to nis right the faint outlines of a form which ed to develop in the soft light until it bore the appearance of a young woman clothed in a robe of spotless white.

Having coerced large numbers of railroad employes into joining so-called “sound money clubs," the corporation officials have become aware of the fact that this iu not sufficient to insure the votes of their men. They know that large numbers of the men who are wearing McKin- ley buttons and have placed their names on the roll of “sound money clubs” in order to hold their positions, intend to vote for Bryan. Hence the next step in the policy of coercion. Through their paid emissaries among the workingmen ahd through carefully worded circulars, they are menac- ing their employes with the suggestion bat, notwithstanding the Australian secret ballot, means will be found to discover how the men vote. with this menace goes the threat that those who fail to vote for McKinley will as speedily as possible be dischas~ ff and blacklisted. Of course along will only assert their man- own interests, the corporation officials who are now menacing them will imr .iately after clection be on the best de- “hey will be far more anxious to be on good ape the antagenism of the new Administra- e tor asserting their manhood rights. way for the railroad employes to get fair and even friendly treatment from the corporation officials over them will be to elect an Administration that will owe nothing to the corporations and that will not hes- itate a moment to take them by the throat. On the other hand, the surest path er workingmen from the honorable station of an independent employe to a position of practical serfdom will be to aid in the election of an Administration that will owe its election to the corporation bosses. There is another sense in which the threat is an empty one, There is no pos- sible way in which anybody can discover how a voter votes under the Australian The effort has been made in various States and it has utterly failed except in a few instances where a scheme was worked through the corruption of an election officer. Even in these instances the scheme could not have worked but for the apathy of the other election judges. 7 workingmen have only te realize how they themselves feel regarding the result of this election to know that there will be no apathy this time on the part of election officials, but that on the contrary, the utmost vigilance will be exer- The very Railroad employes and other Every Democratic election judge and clerk in every election precinct im the United States will be especially cautioned to be watchful on Nov. 8 to prevent the success of any scheme or trick for defeating the secret ballot and finding out Where this watchfulness is exercised or even feared, no trick or scheme can succeed. In fact, it will not even be tried. The risk of detection will be too great and the penalties of the law are too severé. The ballot laws of Missouri are similar to those of other States in which the Australian secret ballot has been adopted. Sec. 3742 of the Revised Statutes of Missouri is as follows: “If any person, by menaces, threats or force, or by any other unlawful means, either directly or indirectly attempt to influence any qualified voter in giving his vote, or to deter him from giving the same, or disturb or hinder him in the free exercise of his right of suffrage, at any election held under the constitution or laws of this State, the person so offending shall, on conviction thereof, be adjudged guilty of a misdemeanor.” The penalty for a misdemeanor is fine or imprisonment, or both, The Mis- souri Corrupt Practices act (sec, 4, page 159, Session Act of 1893,) is also explicit: Every person who shall directly or indirectly, by himself, or any other person on his behalf, make use of or threaten to make use of any force, violence or restraint, or inflict‘or threaten to inflict, by himself or by any other person, any temporal or spiritual injury, damage, harm or loss upon or against any person, in order to induce or compel such person to vote or refrain from voting at any election, or who shall by abduction, duress or any fraudulent device or contrivance, impede or prevent the free,exefcise of the franchise of any elector, or shall thereby compel, induce or prevail upon any elector, either to give or re- frain from giving his vote at any election, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and upon conviction thereof shall be punished by imprisonment in the county jail not less than one month and not more than one year. Every honest workingman upon whom coercion is attempted Should assert his manhood right. If he cannot vote in accordance with his own convictions and his own idea of his own interests, he is already practically à slave and it will not be long before he is reduced to à condition of virtual slavery. The issue thus raised by corporation officials is much deeper and more Important than even the money question. It has become a question as to whether free institutions in America are to become a farce—e mere cloak for the despotism of wealth, which is the most grinding, sordid and degrading of all despotisms.

And more corporations than rail- roads are engaged in the corrupt work of manipulating votes this year. — i - Every fair-minded American wants the silver miners to receive as much protec- tion and encouragement as the gold |} miners, whose output is continually leav- ing us and which never stays when it returns. Satan seems not to have been too busy in the political campaign to take part in the Illinois State Fair. The indecent sideshow at State fairs must go if the pumpkin and the plow are to flourish. J. West Goodwin’s trip to Washington to besmirch Lom Stephens has proved an exceedingly barren venture. There is nothing in the record of Mr. Stephens to give the Hessians hope. The Standard Oil bolt, led by Whitney, reinforced by Mr. Cleveland as his man of all work, has given the Democratic party not. less than a million votes. Watch the returns. Oct. 6, 10 and 13 are the days on which every resident of St. Louis who wants to vote will have to register. No one now registered can vote om the old registra- tion. The misstatements Candidate Lewis is carrying around with him will not much affect the big Missouri majority that is coming, except, perhaps, to increase it.

An effort is being made to repair, by pri- vate subscription, the tomb of Sir William Pepperell, at Kittehy Point, Me., the leader of the expedition against Louisberg. The family is extinct. Prince Ademuyiwa of Jebu Remo, in West Africa, a jet black Methodist, sat by the side of the Magistrate during a recent trial at the Old Bailey, London. Dr, Conan Doyle won the cricket match | between the Authors’ Club and the Press Club in London almost by himself, making 101 runs to 82 by the whole opposite side. Among the authors upon his side who were not called upon to bat were J. M. Barrie and Frankfort Moore, Mile. Couedon, the prophetess, has come into prominence again, owing to the recent eyclone in Paris, she having predicted in July a destructive storm in September. Her success led her to predict another storm that should devastate the Champs Elysees by fire from heaven and injure the Church of the Sacred Heart on top of Monmartre for Sept. 20, but this prediction failed to realize. Turkey’s representative in London is a — | Greek by nationality and a Christian by religion. His real name is Constantine An- thopoulus Pasha, which has by sqme pro- cess of evolution become transformed into Costaki Pasha. His predecessor, Rustem Pasha, who was of Italian origin, was also | a Christian. WOMEN OF NOTE. Mrs. Arthur Sewall, wife of the Demo- cratic nominee for Vice-President, is a most artistic lady. Among other art treasures at her home in Bath, Me., is a valuable collection of water colors and landscape photographs selected by her on her exten- sive travels on two continents. Dr. Alice Bennett is one of the first women to make a special study of insanity, and was the very first to occupy a practical chairmanship of a great institution. For sixteen years shé was superintendent of the women’s department of the Pennsylvania State Insane Hospital, a position she has just resigned in order to devote herself to private practice. Mme. Bernhardt, until lately at her home at Belle Isle, has contributed to the N- garo a pleasant little chronique entitled “Un Drame en Mer,” describing the everyday life and hardships of the peasantry of the adjoining country. One of her guests at Belle Isle was Charles H. Meltzer, the Amer. ican playwright and critic. A charming bust of the Princess of Wales the Constitutional Club in London, It is the work of Countess Gletchen. Some amused comment has been caused by the fact that, by way of additional ornament, a Cupid has been carved on the lower part of the bust, giving a somewhat strange effect, CHIPS OF FUN.

Some people don’t think anything funny except the physical pain of others, There is some of that kind of fun in “The Gay Parisians,” but it is not brought out so well by Mr. Frohman’s company of high Class, reputable actors and actresses as it whe is by the knock-about comedians of the variety stage, There are no musical feat- ures and the bare suggestion of a dance by four young women in their night robes is neither realistic nor graceful. Of the principals in the cast only kind and pitiful things may be said. Mr. Fergu- son, who is probably the best character | it comedian in America, is entitled to the sym- pathy of his admirers. It should be no reflection on him that he cannot redeem the | 2 leading role, but the chances are that his | “2 reputation will be hurt if he remains in it. | be As for Miss Martinot, she will not suffer be- cause of her part, and her part does not suf. | © fer at her hands, She is good to look at, dresecs charmingly and acts intelligently.

It is possible that “The Gay Parisians” will draw well during its engagement, as it had a run of 200 nights in New York. New York has a large float- ing population, however, and it may be that the alluring name of the piece and the high repute of the‘members of the company suf- ficed to attract play-goers who didn’t know what they were “up against.” Hopkins’ Grand Opera-house was crowded all day long yeste — e arranged respects at that popular resort.

The Presidential Nominee Fully Re- cuperated From the Fatigue Con- sequent UponSaturday’s Work. After a comparatively quiet day yester- day at the Soutkern, William J.

IT WILL PROBABLY BE DEMAND- ED BY POPULISTS. — SHERIDAN WEBSTER MUST GO. He Will Be Dropped From the Ticket at the State Committee Meet- ing Thursday. The Populist State Committee will meet next Thursday at 10 o’clock in the St. James Hotel. As the meeting will be the last one held prior to the filing of the State and Con- gresslonal tickets it will probably be one of the committee’s most interesting ses- sions. : It will have at least one vacancy on the ticket to fill—that of State Auditor, Sher- idan Webster, the nominee for that office, is to be taken off the ticket because of his bolt, and the fact, as stated, that he is no longer a Populist. There may be other vacancies. But at this time there is no definite knowledge as to which particular nominee may decide to withdra . ith W. State Chairman Rozelle of the Populist State Committee called on Chairman Sam B. Cook of the Democratic State Committee Monday. They discussed the situation in the State generally and in the different Congression- al districts. It is admitted by the Populists that they still expect fusion on the te ticket, and they insist that it is necessary in order to hold the vote in line. If the Democrats will give them two laces, say they, the remainder of the opulist ticket will be withdrawn and no ee filed with the Secretary of tate. K The only trouble about the Populist propo- sition is in finding two Democratic eandi- dates who will withdraiw. n The Populists would like to have O. D. Jones of Knox County, nominee for Gov- ernor, placed on the Democratic ticket as the candidate for Lieutenant-Governor and they would like one additional place. The fact that Judge John H. N the Populist candidate for 2 of the urt of Appeals for the Eastern District, ig will- ‘to withdraw, is being used by the Bopulists as an argument in support of the proposi- tion to fuse on the State ticket. Unless some agreement is reached on that oint * contend that the vacancy made 2 the thdrawal of Judge North will be led by another Populist. Republican politicians, who tried. unsuc- cessfully to bribe the Populist State Com- mittee to defeat fusion on the electoral ticket, are keeping close watch on the members of the committee who will meet Thursday. They propose to defeat fusion on the State ticket if it is tried. / And probably they will adopt the same methods which proved unsuccessful before, ae they will not be so bungling in/ their style. ä — OCTOBER GRAND-¥ORY. no Comprise Names of the Gentlem the The Grand-jury for October term was selected and sworn in in Judge Edmunds’ court Monday morning.

Monday a number of small fry Filleyites from the interior of the State were in the city, and after making their morning de- votions, were allowed a few hours’ libert to see the sights of the town. ’ Freed from the atmosphere of the Mosqué they talked of the prospects in the State and incidentally gave the tip that the keep- er of the Mosque has been working on what he considers a pres? coup. It is asserted positively that Mr. Filley has made what he considers a great po- litical bargain by which he hopes to get for his candidate for Governor the votes not only of a majority of the bolting Wall street Democrats, but the votes of all the mempers of the American Protective As- sociation. Confidential agents of the secret clety have been in close communion with Mr. Fil- ley recently. | He is said to have assured them that his candidate for Governor is all ht” and that if he should be elected, he d do the “right thing“ by its members. J. H. Harris, “De Ole Man's“ Kansas City Heutenant and a member of the Bilection Board of that city, has been intrusted with the commission of assuring the members of the organization in the western part of the State that Mr. Filley has Candidate Lewis thoroughly in. hand. Chairman Filley will look after the St. Louis end of the deal himself. He is said to be in close h with the leaders of the society and it is also told of Mr. Lewis that he has “toe@ the mark“ by consenting to the arrangements made by his State Chair- | Man. Precisely what Filley expects . from the Wali street wing of the Democratic party is not made plain. It is asserted with consid- erable confidence, however, that he has told ‘the leaders of the bolters’ brigade they must * him out. e State ticket of the Wall street men is to be filed, but the compact is that wherever the influence of the leaders can be used it is to be used to get votes for the straight Re- publican ticket, electors and State nominees. Chairman Edward Cunningham of the Wall Street Democratic State Committee said Monday morning that the lists of sig- natures to the petitions for the filing of the bolters’ ticket had not been completed, but the ticket would be filed in a few days. And then if the bolters carry out their compact with Filley, they will instruct their followers to vote the Republican ticket. OLD SOLDIER VOTE. 7 ‘Congressman Smith Loves Them About Election Times. The Democrats of the Twenty-second II- linois Congressional District, which 16 in the southern part of the State, are making the campaign an interesting one for George W. Smith, the Republican candidate who wants re-election as a pronounced gold standard advocate. A party of Southern Illinois leaders were in the city Monday and said the free silver sentiment was spreading down there like a prairie fire. One Republican free silver club at Villa Ridge, Pulaski County, alone had 200 members. Pierce P. Walsh, one of the party, had a letter in his possession which bodes mate- rial harm to Congressman Smith. He is gi a hard fight for the old soldier vote. The letter in question was written to Congressman Smith Aug. 20, 1889. It was a reply to a request to Acting Postmaster- General J. 8. Clarkson to remove Uriah Butler, who was then postmaster at Villa Ridge, and appoint in his stead a young lady, Miss Mollie A. Pollock. Gen. Clarkson took the position that it would be bad politics. to oust Butler, who was a prominent soldier, to make way for a young lady. Despite this appeal the Democratic veteran was removed and the young lady given his position. This is how Mr. Smith showed his affection for the men who saved the union. One of the strongest free silver Repub- licans in that district is Lieut. Parker, who served with distinction in the Union army. Wednesday next the Union generals, who are touring the country in a private car, will be in Lieut. Parker’s town. He pro- poses to show receipts received from the Government during the war for the income tax paid on his $100 a month salary. He will ask Gens. Sickles and the other vets why the law was not unconstitutional then as it is now, according to the Supreme Court decision, You must register if you desire to cast your ballot at the November elec- tion. Registration every Presidential year is required by the laws of Mis- souri. This is the Presidential year. Three days have been set apart for registration—Oct. 6, Oct. 10 and Oct. 18. If you fail to get your name on the lists on one of these days you will lose your Presidential vote. Political Meetings.

Allen make. good his defense in a suit now pending in Judge Fiitcraft’s division of the Circuit Court, married women will find difficulty in purchasing confections, jewelry or any- thing else not strictly necessities, on their husbands’ credit. The suit is on an account for borrowed money, candies and knick-nacks bought by Mrs. George W. Allen from Henry Maillard, a famous New York manufacturer of choco- lates and bon bons. It was brought up momentarily in Judge Flitcraft’s court Mon- day by the filing of depositions in behalf of Maillard. The suit originated in Justice F. A. Cline’s court on May 15, and is for $20.90. Mr. Allen took an appeal to the Circult Court from Judge Cline’s decision, Mrs. Allen always was a bit ‘eccentric. Some time ago she built the magnificent mansion on the northwest corner of Grand avenue and Washington boulevard at a cost of $50,000, After it was finished, but before it was occupied, a fortune-teller told Mrs. Allen she would die in that house, The mansion remained vacant until a pur- chaser was found for it about six months ago. The fttemized bill filed by Maillard as part of his petition is, therefore, not as odd as it might othorwise appear. he candies were bought and the money borrowed by Mrs. Allen while she was in New York, duri the fall and summer of last year. The bi she ran up was as follows: hree fancy boxes 88 BO tu re .Z2 22 5 „ „%% % %%% %%% %%% „% „%%% „% „% „%„%„%%6 Fire crackers eeeeeeee eeeeeeeseeereeeseeeere 7 Pure caraque eeeeeeeece „ „%%% %%% „%„%„„%„ „% „% „% „ „„%„%6„ Cash borrowed eeseee eeeeeereeeeeeeeseereeee Caramels 62 „% „%„„„ „„ „ „ „%%% %%% %%% %%% „„ „6 „60 Lunch 5„5„ „%%% „„ „„ „ %% %%% %% „%%% „%%% „% „ „% „„ Three boxes caramels One box clear caramelnsss Etuis „ „ „ „%%% %%% „„ „ „ „„ „„ „4 „6 „ eee Pure cara que 0 Cash borrowed eeeeeeeeeeeee eee eeeeeeeeeaeee R % et ee SSSSESSSSESR | Credit can eeeee eeeeeeeeoeoeeeeeeeeee Due 23953 2„ „„ 62 „„ „„ . an The item “etuis,” in the bill, designates a S S toilet case, the French word being used. Mr. Allen made no defense to the suit in dered by default. the Circuit 2 where Lawyer Hiram J. Grover is looking after his interests, it Appears that the defense will be that Mr. Allen is not responsible for the bill, as a husband is responsible for only such debts of his wife as are for necessaries. On account of Mrs. Allen’s penchant for running up bills, Mr. Allen some time ago sent out notices to tradesmen that he would not be responsible for them and this fact is set up in answer to the petition. The deposition filed Monday was in response to this. It was made last Thursday in New York by J. T. Hogan, manager for Maillard. It states that if any such notice had been received by Maillard the deponent would have known of it and that no notice was received. Further, Hogan testified that on one oc- casion Mrs. Allen borrowed $1 at the store and on Sept. 25, 1895, asked for $25 more, as she needed it to get home. The money was loaned her. The deposition concludes by stating that Mrs, Allen represented at the store that she was stopping at the Park Avenue Hotel, which was patronized only by fashionable and wealthy persons, and also that she was always richly dresse and seemed a pérfect lady. 2 The result of the suit will be watched with considerable interest, because it will probably establish what constitute neces- saries for married women. In such cases the court takes into consideration the cir- cumstances of the person and it may be that Judge Flitcraft will decide that chocolates and bon-bons are as much necessities for wealthy and fashionable married women as are bread and meat and wearing apparel for their least fortunate sisters, since they have always been accustomed to such luxu- ries. RANDALL SAYS IT’S ROT. Whitewashes His Grafting Father’s Crooked Work. J. Harry Randall says the charges against his department are all rot. “Why,” he said to a Post-Dispatch man, „J could have made more in six months than I make in four years if I had wanted to. I could have got all I wanted and skip- ped out, but I didn’t do it, did 1?“ “Have you investigated the charges against your father?“ he was asked. Ves, I have investigated, and it is all rot. There is nothing in it at all. These people who have been talking in the papers without knowing what they were talking about will hear more of this in the courts.” “How do you mean?“ Never mind. Wait till the time comes. They have done a good deal of harm and will be punished for it. As to my issuing orders to put in escapes or put on shutters, I have not written a dozen of these letters in the past year. It is all folly to state that I have issued such orders.” “You have investigated all you intend to, then?“ “Yes, pretty nearly. I am satisfied that I am not to blame for anything. I am sure there is nothing in the char at all.“ “Then you will mot discharge your fa- ther?“ : guess not. There is nothing in the “No, 1 charges, nothing at all.“ 5 all was not disposed to talk about the case at all and tried to put it aside in a most off-hand manner, WANTS HER PURSE. .- The Mercurial Mrs. Florence Frost Writes to the Police.

Frost has sent a per- fumed lettet to Chief of Police Harrigan, asking that official to try and find for her the pocketbook containing $23, which she Says was stolen from her at the Lindell Hotel before she was ejected Friday evening for being drunk. She begs the pardon of the police for tting them to so much trouble in having her “little fun in town.” She is now at the St. James and says she will leave town in a few days.

John Thomas Insisted on Showing Mr. Dwyer How a Proper Saloon | Should Be Conducted. John Thomas Brady, who needs no in- troduction to newspaper readers, and “Bul- let” Dwyer, leader of the Tenth street gang, exchanged a fusillade of shots in Mr. Brady’s saloon at Ninth and Walnut streets early Monday morning. No one was injured, but the walls and windows of the saloon resemble a porous plaster, so numerous are the perforations. The difficulty arouse over the familiarity which “Bullet” indulged in toward a blonde young woman who is known in the shady walks of life as “Diamond Flosste.“ John Thomas, as he says, for the sake of his saloon’s reputation, objected to Dwyer’s remarks and with two such redoubtable characters as parties to a controversy, gun- powder was the only possible solution. It was about 2 a. m. that Dwyer blew into Brady’s dispensary. He was accom- panied by a few genial spirits with reputa- tions to match that of their leader, ey lined — along the bar and asked the thick- chested proprietor for a round of drinks, While they were engaged in ttin side of the refreshments Miss Flossie ap- eared at the door of the wine room. She ad a couple of gentlemen friends in tow and having just finished a tour of Hop Alley she desired to top off the night’s outing with a few beers in Mr. Brady’s establishment. “Hello,” she called cheerily in toward the bar. “How are you?’ Brady said hello, he was all right, and Dwyer said hello, he was all right, too. “What the hell are you helloing about?“ inquired Brady of Dwyer. She's talking to me. None of that business goes here. She’s got friends with her and I don’t want none of you mixing up where you ain't wanted.“ Bullet“ happened to be about as well ac- quainted with the fair Flossie as Brady was, and he deeply resented the insinuation that he had been sticking in his lip when he wasn't wanted. He immediately informed the illustrious scion of the Brady tribe that he could knock the stuffing out of him if the saloonkeeper would only step out from be- hind the bar. 4 goes on the theory that if he isn’t boss of his place at least twenty others will attempt to be and so to stop all argument he let fly at Bullet's“ h with a bottle of cider. “Bullet” dodged the bottle and while he stooped to pick it up Brady came around with a gun long enough for a ram-rod. He began pumping lead at his gay customer in a manner that left no doubt as to his in- tentions. Bullet“ made for the door. I'll be back later,“ he yelled, as the swinging doors slapped behind him, and then he pattered up Walnut street to his own room. Having obtained a gun he re- turned to do battle with Brady on more even terms. out- There were no remarks. They simply — — shooting and ducking with great rapidity and regularity. .

Chief of Police Harrigan will detail severa) detectives to run down and arrest the three murderers of Charles Kidd, whose skull was broken with coupling pins and his body placed across a railroad track 100 yards from his home at Frederickstown, Madison Co., Mo., on the night of Dec, 27 last. Edward Kidd, the white-halired father of the murdered man, was at che Four Courts Monday morning. He had a letter from Judge Holliday, prosecuting attorney in Madison County, introducing him to the Chief. Since the murder of his son he has worked on the trail of the assassins, and he came to St. Louis with the information that they are now in a small town near St. Louis. The Madison County Grand-Jury has re- turned indictments against the three men, but the local authorities were unable to find them. Mr. Kidd did a little detective 1 and has located them near Exactly where they are he declines to state, and does Chief Harrigan, but the latter says he will send officers there.
