Woman's Humane Society Will Act as Guardian and Expend the Money for Her. — If 600 persons will subscribe $1 apiece little Cosette can be sent to school, clothed, fed and all her wants provided until she is 16. The Woman's Humane Society of Mis- souri has taken steps to prevent the little one's return to the person who treated her so harshly and this society will undoubted- ly be appointed guardian by the Probate Court. Following the practice in such cases the child would probably be placed in one of the several charitable institutions. But the suggestion is made that Cosette be not so cared for. Placed in the House of Refuge when a babe and taken therefrom by Mrs. Barbara Kettle to act as her maid of all work, charity has presented a dark side to little Cosette so far in life. The plan is to let some sunshine creep in. In co-operation with the Woman's Hu- mane Society, the Post-Dispatch will re- ceive subscriptions, which will be turned over to the new guardian of little Cosette— to be appointed by the Probate Court—by them to be used for the education and care of Lizzie McDonald for four years. It was suggested Friday that the child be placed in Visitation Academy, Cabanne, and with this in view a Post-Dispatch reporter Sister Mary Acquin, the directress, was questioned regarding the matter. She said: “This is one of the saddest cases I ever heard. To think that a child of 11 tried to commit suicide! What a life hers must have been! May I offer a suggestion to the noble women who are interesting them- selves in this little one and also to the Post-Dispatch? Suppose you raised a fund for the child and placed her here, would she not be looked down upon by her associates in the academy? Would they not make her life miserable by reminding her that she was “I would suggest that the place where from the public. Ask the generous for aid, then trust the little one’s future to the Woman's Humane Society. Above all, do not tell her where the money comes from. Let her know that she is to go to school and be cared for—that is all.“ The sister was asked the probable ex- Bhe consulted with the Mother Superior, and said: “Six hundred dollars should be sufficient for all her needs. She could be given a thorough education, well clad and boarded for this amount.“ Following Sister Mary Acquin’s advice the Post-Dispatch urges those interested In lit- tle Cosette to help raise a fund for the child. The money will be acknowledged through these columns, and will be turned Over to the Woman's Humane Society of Missouri to be by them expended for the education angg®are of the little one. Mrs. T. G. Comstock, President of th society, has accepted thé trust on behalf of her co-workers, and to them will be left tht placed. For the sake of the little one this place will not be made public. Those who doubtedly trust that the kind-hearted wo- men who have interested themselves in the child's welfare will make good use of the @mount subscribed. It is hoped a sufficient amount will be hospital to a pleasant school where for four years she may have the advantages that have been denied her, and forget the life of misery which she tried to end with a The little Cosette fund is now open. It is Saturday afternoon. It is hoped Sunday’s Post-Dispatch will contain a list of names with money subscribed for the little one. It is now known who set the example of “Mrs. Kettle took a rand went to the woodshed. I followed and peeped through a crack. I saw her put up to her 80,“ and the little one pointed “Then she pulled the trigger but it did not go off.

The Probate Court will hear the guardian- ship case on Friday. “You do not want to go back to Mrs. Kettle, do you?“ asked a reporter Satur- “Oh, no,” and the expression of fear came back into her eyes. The principal charm of little Cosette’s face is her eyes. They are large and blue, clear and fringed with long brown lashes. Further details of little Cosette’s life have been learned. At the time of her birth her mother lived at Cheltenham, with the man who was Cosette’s father. Her mother cared for her until she was 8 years old, then gave her to a friend. From that time Cosette lived first with one family, then an- other, for a year. Her mother then took her to Mascoutah, Ill, and gave her to a family. There little Cosette lived nearly a year, treated brutally. At last, desiring to get rida of her, the man brought her to St. Louls™ Not knowing where her mother was he left the little girl at the house on Sixth street, with a woman named Mollie Brown, who had known her mother. Mrs. Brown gave the House of Refuge. About eight months ago little Cosette was received at the City Hospital and for two UKE FRONT ORDER RECALLED. LAMOREAUX REVERSED AND WILL BE DISMISSED. SLICK SCHEME FRUSTRATED. Sensational Snub to the Interior De- partment as Run by David R. Francis. Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, D. C., March 13.—The ge- nius for blundering—to call it nothing worse —developed by the Interior Department un- der the administration of David R. Francis was given a striking illustration to-day, when a sensational order repudiating acts of the General Land Office in the Chicago Lake front case, and which probably will be followed immediately by the peremptory dismissal of Silas W. Lamoreaux of Wis- weeks was treated for spasms, with which she was frequently attacked. Lizzie or lit- tle Cosette remained at the House of Refuge until Mrs. Kettle adopted her, about four months ago. From this time on life to the child was a continued misery, a burden too great to bear. Mollie Brown, who knew Lizzie’s mother, now lives at 895 North Tenth street. She says the last she ever knew of Lizzie’s mother was about four years ago, when she left St. Louis with a man whose name she did not know. Fin LITIGATION. Additional Complications in the Con- test Over the Estate of the Millionaire. SAN FRANCISCO, March 13.—Still an- other phase of the Fair litigation now figures in the courts in the form of a com- plaint in intervention filed by Miss Virginia Fair, daughter of the late millionaire, in the already pending suit instituted by the special administrators against Mrs. Nettie Craven, designed to defeat the Craven claim to valuable city property alleged to have been conveyed by Fair to her in the now famous “‘péncil deeds.” Miss Fair charges that the deeds are for- geries and the result of a conspiracy. She asks that as the claims of Mrs. Craven tend to cloud the property of which she is the owner of an undivided one-third in- terest, Mrs. Craven be compelled to deliver up for cancellation the pencil deeds, and that they be canceled under the direction of the court. Further action 1 ene the administra. tors’ suit to quiet the title to the sand lots was foreshadowed to-day by Superior Judge Black, who directed Notary Public Eugene — garding her claim. No time was set for the taki of the deposition, but it will probably done within the next few days, because the trial is to be begun next week. Several at- tempts have been made to secure Mrs. Craven's deposition, and, although she has been examined under oath in regard to the deeds, she has not yet signed a deposition. It is said that if she swears that the ack- now 1— — to the deeds were attached to the documents when they were presented to her by Senator Fair, she will be liable to a criminal prosecution, and will have to stand a ray wel trial to that of J.

This decision was rendered on an appli- cation by Martin M. Cooney and others to locate McKee scrip on identically the same ground, and, it is said, under the same circumstances as the present case. The application of Cooney et al. was rejected while the application of Harvey M. La Follette and Matthias Benner was allowed by Commissioner Lamoreaux in the decis- ion which has been repudiated by Secretary Bliss to-day.

Jannopoulo, Consul of Greece at St. Louis, Saturday morning received from the Greek Government a cablegram through the New York Consul, which reads as fol- lows: By Royal order the reserves of 1866, 1867, 1868, 1869, 1870, 1871, 1872, and 1873 are notified to answer to a call to arms immediately, — the exception of the non-combatant Class. ‘Reserves are urged to comply with thé above by immediately returning to their respective ranks. A. G.

JANNAPOULA, “Greek Consul at St. Louis.“ Simultaneously with this call to arms Consul Jannapoulo issued a notice for a mass meeting, which reads as follows: “A mass meeting will be held at Enter- tainment Hall, Exposition Building (en- trance on Fourteenth street), Monday even- ing, March 15, at 8 p. m., by the sympathiz- ers of Greece, lovers of freedom and those opposed to coercion d massacres.

HIS REASONS GIVEN FULLY. He Regards the Bill as Class Legisla- tion and as Threatening Great Injustice. Special to the Post-Dispatch. JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., March 13.— There will be a warm time in the Senate next Tuesday over the Governor’s veto of the bill to prevent insolvent corporations from making preference of creditors. Some of the leading Democrats in the Senate will take issue with the Governor on this bill, and will vote for its passage notwith- standing his objections. Even some of the Governor's most intimate personal friends are likely to be arrayed against him in this Particular instance, if current comment in the Senate chamber may be relied upon. The bill in question was introduced by a Republican—Senator Klene of St. Louls— yet it met the hearty approval of the Demo- crats, and although the Senate is not usu- ally very much given to passing anti-cor- poration legislation, the Klene bill went through with twenty-nine votes in favor of it to five against. Senator Klene, the au- thor of the bill, is not noted for his antip- athy to corporations in general, yet it some- times happens that men like Senator Klene introdice bills that apparently have the stamp of anti-corporation plainly impressed upon them. Following is a copy of the ene bill, which now promises to cause a commotion second only to the Peers ‘‘hang- ing bill: Sec. 1. The assets of every corpara- tion incorporated under the laws of this State, and of every foreign corporation doing business and having assets in this“ State, which is insolvent and unable to continue its ordinar business, shall hereafter be a trust fund for the benefit of all of its creditors in proportion to their 8 claims. Sec 2. ereafter no corporation incor- porated under the laws of this State, and no foreign corporation doing busi- ness and having assets in this State shall have the power, when insolvent and unable to continue its ordinary business or in contemplation of insolvency an ntinuance of its ordinary business or of voluntary guide Son or winding up, to prefer any of its creditors by pay- ment, mortgage, deed of trust, pledge, sale, confession of judgment, collusive Attachment, or by any other means whatever: Provided, that no payment received in good faith in the ordinary „ course of business shall be held to be Within the terms of this act; and pro- ded further, that nothing contained in this act shall be held to repeal sec- tions 2588, as amended in 1895, and 4911 of the Revised Statutes of 1889, or to de- * the State of the priority of payment 0 1 — it is now entitled under exist- ws. ec. 3.

No preference given in violation of the terms of this act shall be annulled or set aside hereunder, unless an action for that purpose shall be instituted in oe proper court within ninety days after oe 1 — * * been given, rosecuted wit ue diligence to A final judgment. 1 The Governor enters into detail in his veto message mee ing his reasons for not roving the pill. fter the prefatory statement, the Governor delves into the su we ＋ e makes a decided innovation in pe well established law of this State, and will unsettle questions that are now not to discussion. It seems to me that it will lead to a great deal of litigation. There are occasions when individuals and cor porations should be permittétto prefer one creditor to another. To prohibft such pref- erences in toto would put it out of the pow- er of an embarrassed person or corporation © obtain temporary aid or extensions. It ® been the settled policy of this State since the earliest reports to permit an indi- vidual to prefer creditors. The Supreme Court has said: f “It is difficult to see upon what basis of people a distinction can be established tween its (a corporation) right to exer- cise the powers of ownershi n respect to such pro ry. and the right of control (within the limitations of good faith) con- ceded in similiar circumstances to an indi- vidual. The right of the latter to give a pre mee to one creditor over another is usually ground on the power of disposi- fon incidental to the ownership of property. hat ground exists with equal strength as a business corporation in this State.“ “The first section of the bill declares the of an insolvent corporation a trust nd for creditors, and the fourth gives ninety days to an unsecured creditor to set aside a conveyance. A diligent creditor may on may at that time h 2 a a me hope to go on if it turns out that it was in fact ineolysdt the collaterals may be taken from him.

HAVANA, March 13.—It is announced that with a view to sending reinforcements to the Spanish army in Cuba, Spain is con- ducting negotiations with private companies to supply volunteers for the island. The Government does not make another appeal to the reserves, but expects in the way in- dicated to strengthen the army, for the 200,000 men sent here in two years have been decimated until it is not able to hold out against the Insurgents, It is estimated here that 8,000 Spanish soldiers have been killed by the Insurgents or have died of yellow fever, smallpox and malaria. Weyler is leaving many towns without garrisons and giving others into the care of the volunteers of the island because he needs his troops for his military operations against Gomez. He has asked Spain for more regulars, but the Government 1s obliged to send soldiers also to the Philip- pines and keep some at home, owing to fears of a revolution of the Carlists.

Ro- loff has landed in Cuba the big expedition which started a few days ago from the United States. The place of landing is as- Bucned to be the northern coast of Cama- ey. The expedition is said to have met with no interference. It was the most im- portant one which has sailed from this country since the beginning of the Cuban war.

DIRECTORS ACT AS A COURT. The Supreme Court Holds That Under Such Circumstances They Are Not Liable for Damages. * > — — The opinion of the Supreme Court in the case of Albers vs. the Merchants’ Ex- change, which was received Saturday, is a sweping decision in favor of the Exchange, deciding all points involved in its favor. This was a suit for $50,000 damages brought by the plaintiff to recover damages alleged to have been sustained by his suspension from the Exchange, such suspension having been made on account of his refusal to pay a ind ot $ imposed for his refusal to ob- serve the rule against smoking. He con- tended that this smoking rule was inval'd from the lack of power in the Board of Di- ‘rectors to enact or make it. Both the Cir- cult Court and the Court of Appeals held that the action of the Exchange in suspend- ing him was invalid, because there was no power to fine, and therefore their action in suspending him for not paying the fine was illegal. On the trial of the damage suit, in the Circuit Court, Judge Valiant ordered a verdict for one cent in Mr. Albers’ favor, and both sides appealed, the plaintiff be- cause he did not get substantial damages and the Exchange because a peremptory verdict was not directed in its favor, as the Board of Directors was acting as a corpor- ate court without malice, and no private action would lle against them, even if they did make a mistake. The Supreme Court says that there was no error committed against Mr. Albers, but that the position of the Exchange was cor- rect throughout, and commends the conduct of President Orthwein and the directors: that there was no evidence of malice and that the Board of Directors were acting as a corporate court, and therefore the dires- tors were not liable for damages, even if they did make a mistake. The Supreme Court therefore reverses the judgment for one cent in Mr. Albers’ favor and enters a judgment for the Exchange. The opinion also intimates that the Su- preme Court did not concur with the Ccurt of Appeals in 1 that the judgment of suspension was invalid. The pith of the de- cision is contained in the following lan- guage: “As already observed in the discus- sion of plaintiff's appeal, this record is barren of any evidence of malice or op- pression, and as it results from the pro- visions of the charter that in suspend- ing plaintiff from the privileges of the Exchange the directors were acting as a corporate court, and that they were attempting to enforce a vahd and reasonable by-law to prevent smoking upon the floor during the business ses- sions of the Exchange, and last July notified plaintiff that they were invested with jurisdiction, and the mere fact that they had rendered an erroneous sentence for violation of their rules will not sub- ject them to dam „ notwithstanding the action of the Circuit Court avoided the conclusion they reached by enjoin- ing the enforcement of their judgment.“ Mr. F. N. Judson, the attorney for the Exchange, says that the decision is of the utmost importance as a pr ent, and firmly establishes the status of the Board of Directors as a co rate court, and will be very valuable in the government of the —— in the future in removing the ap- prehension of personal liability to damage suits against directors.

WILL PRESENT PROOFS, Judge Harvey to Contest the Brown Delegation as Fraudulent. Judge Thomas B. Harvey will appear be- fore the Election Commissioners late Satur- day afternoon and present affidavits show- ing that Capt. Joe Brown and his campaign committee had nothing to do with filing the so-called Brown delegation”’ in the First Ward, but that it was filed by Noonan men, the filing fee was paid by Noonan men, and Noonan men compose the delegation. Judge Harvey will make an argument showing that this Brown delegation is noth- ing more than a dummy“ for Noonan, and was filed for the purpose of securing extra judges, clerks and watchers for Noonan. Judge Harvey will argue that such methods are unfair towards Mr. Harrison, and will gak that the Brown delegation be pulled 0 wn, I had nothing to do with filing the Brown delegation in the First Ward,” said Capt. Brown to a Post-Dispatch man. It is not es A delegation. But I understand it can’t be pulled down, and if my friends want to vote for it they can do 80.“ “No, the Brown people have spent no money for filing delegations in the First and the Nineteenth Wards,“ said Maj. Charles B. Gonter, Secretary of the Brown Commit- tee. “The Brown delegations in those two wards were filed, I presume, by the Butlers.

It acts directly. on the delicate arene that bear the burdens of maternity. It makes It cures all weakness and disease and gives vigor, vir- ility and elasticity. It prepares for healthy wifehood and safe, capable motherhood, Taken during the squeamish period of an- ticipation, it banishes the usual discom- forts and makes baby’s coming easy and almost painless. It insures a robust and healthy child. It tones a woman's nerves and enables and assists nature to build up her general health. All good druggists on- —— 1 — — —• est ones will not try to palm off some in- ferior preparatién as just as good.“ “After reading your book I got three bottles of your ‘Favorite Prescription’ for my wife to try,” writes George S. Richard- son of Little Creek, Kent Co., Delaware. “It is praised so highly for women with child, and she took two bottles and half of the third before the child was born, and the medicine did its work to perfec- tion. She gave birth to a 9% pound baby girl. Our other babies were always weak and delicate, and this one is plump and fat. It is three months old and jt has never had a day’s sickness, and it is Al due to your ‘Favorite Prescription.’ ” “When I began to take your medicine,” writes Mrs. Sarah Frashure of Mineral, Harrison Co., W. Va., I could not sit up, nor had I been able to be up any for about a year. We had four good doctors to attend me, but I got worse all the time. Was in a very bad condition. Could not eat the lightest food but it would sour on my stomach, and when. they would help me out of bed I could not stand on my feet for such a ‘pulling’ in my stomach. Our family doctor said I would not live a year, or if I did, would never be able to walk again. I lay for a month after I was through with the doctor and almost gave up in despair; I asked my husband to get me one bottle of Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Pre- scription and I would take it and see if it would do me any good. I had been sick so long my husband thought nothing would do me any good, but he went the next day and got one bottle. I began to take it as soon as he got back, and from the day I began to take it I began to get better. Before one bottle was gone I could walk around—to the surprise of my neighbors and the doctors too, for no one who had seen me thought I could live. Took the medicine for about five months, and got so I was able to do my work again. That was about three years ago, and I have not been troubled since. “My trouble was womb disease, piles, and stomach trouble. Would also have spells of spitting blood and the doctor said it was irom my monthly spells; They did everything they could to help me, but nothing did me any good till I took your medicine. It has been about two years since I have spit up blood, and I have not seen any since. Think I must have taken about ten bottles, but did not take enough. The reason I did not continue was, we had to make our living by day’s work, and after doctoring so long we could not afford to buy the medicine. It took all my hus- band could earn to pay the doctors. Just as soon as I could do without medicine I stopped taking it, and that was wrong. Your medicines are all that you claim for them. If it had not been for the ‘Favorite Prescription’ I might have been helpless yet. Am very thankful for your medicine and advice. Have recommended your medicine to several of my friends, and they have taken it with great benefit.“ our medicines certainly did me more good than any that I have ever taken,” writes Mrs. N. A. Bell of Dunn, Harnett Co., N. C. “I was so low down that I could hardly drag around to do my house- work. Now since taking ten bottles of ‘Golden Medical Discovery’ and “Favorite Prescription’ I feel much better and can do all my housework (including the wash- ing) with all ease. I was troubled with prolapsus, but am not troubled now. Am certainly glad that I tried your medicines and shall never forget Dr. Pierce and his medicines, especially if I get sick again. Everybody is wanting to know what did me so much good, that I look so much bettér than I did last spring. I tell them it was Dr. Pierce’s medicines, the ‘Golden Medical Dipeowery and ‘Favorite Pre- scription.’ I was almost a skeleton before taking your medicines; have gained some fifteen or twenty pounds.

Senators who conscientiously voted against the bill for the repeal of the spe- cial jury law should have their doubts as to the evil effects of that law removed by the Chouquette case, reported in Fri- day’s Post-Dispatch. For the benefit of those who did not read the report, it may be said that this was the case of a woman who was injured almost fatally in a run-away street car. The special jury rendered a verdict cast- ing all the blame for the accident upon the street car company and stating that Mrs, Chouquette was innocent of con- tributory negligence, The special jury. nine of whom were corporation men, then gave Mrs. Chouquette damages“ amounting to one cent, for injuries that wrecked her constitution and will prob- ably cause premature death, It is not often that a blunder on the part of a legislative body receives such a prompt and striking object lesson as this case furnishes to the State Senators who opposed the repeal of the special jury law. The lesson of the case is 80 obvious that nothing need be said to back it up. Senators who voted to uphold this iniquitous law are convicted of error. The vote should be promptly reconsidered and the bill to repeal the special jury law taken up and passed. PLUTO AND POP. One fact among many which utterly condemn the Middle-of-the-Road Popu- lists, is that in many State Legislatures controlled by Republicans bills have been introduced, and in some States have been passed, to prevent fusion between parties. A Senate Committee in the Illinois Legislature, dominated by Republicans, has reported such a bill favorably. The Republicans in the committee were united in support of the measure, In that State, as in others, no concealment was made of the fact that the bill was in- tended to prevent a co-operation of the forces which, united in the last campaign, came so near defeating ailied Republican and Democratic Plutocracy. The men be- hind the scheme know that it would be useless to attempt to disguise the mean- ing of their work. They therefore at- tempt no disguise, but boldly announce their purpose to divide the forces which oppose them. The Plutocrats have calculated well. They realize that if such a union as ex- isted last year can be continued, or if it is to be perfected and made stronger, Plutocracy in this country is doomed to early and crushing defeat. In the face of such a danger they have resolved upon an arbitrary exercise of the legislative power now in their hands to make the continuance of fusion impossible. They are made both desperate and bold by the imminence of their overthrow. In the face of such a proof of the ad- vantage and potency of continued affilia- tion of the parties opposing Plutocracy, there are Populists insisting that the union shall be dissolved. They could not lead their party last year. They can- not lead it this year, or any year. They call themselves Middle-of-the- Road men. The term is apt and descrip- tive.

Combinations Between Noonan and Brown and Noonan and Meri- wether in Several Wards. “Judge Noonan’s chances of nomination are tenfold better since the Election Com- missioners, acting upon the legal advice of City Counselor Marshall, decided mot to throw out the ‘dummy’ delegations,” said an old-time politician, who is not a Noo- nan man, yesterday. “The vast majority of the ‘dummy’ dele. gations on the Democratic side were filed by Noonan’s supporters, and the filing fees came from the Noonan headquarters. In the First, Second, Nineteenth, Twenty-first and Twenty-sixth Wards are found Noo- nan ‘dummies,’ and there are several in- dependent del ions in other wards that would not b nspection. “Col. Ed Butler is manipulating the com- bination for Noonan in the First and Nine- teenth Wards, and is doing some active work in the second. Persons who believe that Col. Butler is knocked out will be bad- ly fooled,” Judge Thomas B. Harvey, the new Dxrecu- tive Committeeman in the First Wa is a son man, and he appeared at the Elec. tion Commissioners’ office —— afternoon otest against the palpably unfair 8 of the Butler-Nonan crowd,” as he Why, the Brown del tion in the First Ward,“ said the Judge, is made up of the same men, with one exception, that com- pose the Noonan delegation: I understand hat Capt. Brown says he never filed the delegation bearing the Brown tion, and that he knows nothing about it. also un- derstand that the money to pay for filing this Brown delegation came from the But- ler-Noonan people. Now, it appears plain that the Noonan forces are pursuing fraud- ulent methods of securing votes for a dele- gation marked ‘Brown,’ when in reality the men on it are for Noonan. Should not one 2 — other of these delegations be pulled own?” “While ft may appear to you that there is fraudulent intent on the part of some- body,“ replied President Jones of the Dlec- tion Board, “‘we have no official knowledge of fraud there. So far as we know, the law has been followed in filing both these dele- gations. Now, if we should attempt to pull wn one of them, which could we select?’ hen the question of whether the total vote for a delegation, or the total vote for an individual who may be running on two or three delegations, should be counted, was discussed. ; “In the First Ward,” said Judge Harvey, say a man of the name of Smith appears on both the Brown and the Noonan delegations. By counting the vote for the individual the returns would show a total vote for Smith that was obtained by adding the number of votes he received on the Brown delegation and the number he received on the Noonan delegation. As the names on the Brown ticket are the same as on the Noonan, there- fore all the Noonan delegates will have counted in their favor the votes cast for the Brown delegation. “I think that a party primary is called for the purpose of getting at an expression of sentiment as to what man is desired for the party nominee. Thus, one delegation 18 headed ‘Harrison,’ another ‘Brown’ and an- other ‘Noonan,’ and so on. The voter, I take it, does not vote for the delegates as in- dividuals, but he votes for a certain dele- gation, because it represents the man he Wants for a nominee. The individual is lost sight of. Hence, the man who votes for a Brown delegation wants Brown for Mayor, but the names on that delegation being the Same as on the Noonan delegation in the First Ward, the man’s vote 1 be counted for Noonan. That is unfair. I think the judges and clerks should be instructed to make a report as to how many vo a rison delegation received, how many a Brown delegation received, and so on, and not count up the votes for the individual wee may be running on two or three delega- Reon es, Chairman Devoy of the Democratic to met N City Frecutive Committee wanted the Board to make a ruling to that effect, but it could not be done,” said Charles Hob- ——2 Chief Clerk in President Jones' office. , “The vote for the individual will have to be counted,” said President Jones. “If the individual can have his name on two or more delegations the total vote for him on all those delegations will be counted for him. There is nothing to prevent a man’s name from appearing on as many tickets as he can get it on. For instance, Gov. Stephens’ name appeared on the Popu- list and on the Democratic ticket at the last election. In giving the Stephens vote the returns did not read so many Popu- list votes and so many Democratic votes, but simply the total vote cast for Stephens was given. The same rule applies to the vote for a man whose name appears on more than one delegation at a party pri- ma cv The effect of counting the vote for the in- dividual will aid Noonan in all the wards where he has “dummy” delegations filed, But few “dummies” were filed for Harri- son. Many Brown workers are said to have a plan of co-operation with the Noonan forces. Where Noonan does not combine with Brown, he makes a deal with Meri- wether, as is evident in the Second Wa The field will try to beat Harrison. THEY KNOW HARRISON..

CORBETT NEAT AT IT AS WELL. Julian Agrees to Let His Man Fight Under the Siler Construction of the Rules. CARSON, Nevada, March 13.—The im- proved condition of the roads gave Fitzsimmons an opportunity to-day to use his wheel, and early in the morning he took a spin of about five miles. After returning to the ranch, he started out for a run on foo, accompanied by Hickey. He took a run of about six miles, and returned in time to punch the bag about 11 o'clock. For half an hour he battered the yellow leather sphere back and forth with great energy. He then called upon Hickey and Stalgner to meet him with the gloves. He sparred four fast rounds with each man, paying particular attention to the style of ghting which will be allowed in the ring under the interpretation of the Queensbury rules made by Siler, and to which yesterday Fitzsimmons agreed. The work of Fitzsimmons in hitting with the one arm free as shown in his boxing this morning was not of a character to bear out the statement of Martin Julian in yester- day's conference to the effect that Fitzsim- mons was not accustomed to that style of fighting. His short, quick right and left jabs for the head and stomach were made with marvelous rapidity and with reat force. Again and again he rapped Stelzner and Hickey in the hardest kind of manner, convincing those two gentlemen, if nobody else, that he is no novice in the art of fight- ing at close range. The red-haired pugilist did not seem to be much cast down because, as alleged by Mar- tin Julian, he would be greatly handicapped by Siler’s rulings when he met Corbett in the ring. He capered about the gymnasium apparently in excellent spirits, and on every occasion when he jabed Hickey or Stelzner it seemed to afford him the greatest delight. In the aftbernoon Fitz took another ride on his wheel and wrestled a little with Roeber. He has been doing little wrestling of late, and from now until Wednesday he will take even less of this violent exercise than he has during the last ten days. Fitz- simmons is nearly in the finest possible con- dition, and he and his trainers are working carefully to avoid drawing his condition down too fine. The probability is that Fitz will fight not very far from the middle- weight limit. Fitzsimmons has selected L. M.

Corbett ts the favorite at 7 to 10 on and his price will probably be forced down to 1 to 2 before the men enter the ring. “Five hundred dollars to $1,000, to take the Corbett end, The pool-room keepers have been lucky in win whoever comes out victor in the fight. CROWDS LEAVE FOR CARSON. parture of Special Trains. Special to the Post-Dispatch. CHICAGO, March 13.—There is no end of bustle and excitement in strictly sport- ing circles to-day over the prospective de- parture this evening of the two special trains to take the bulk of the local and Eastern ring patrons to Carson. The Parson“ Davies special, which runs by the Rock Island road, takes gk d a thousand souls. Among them are eo ‘lu London, one from the New York Ath- letic Club, headed by Mike Donovan; John ‘oa 6— SOME OF THE EARLY AND UNDE SIRABLE ARRIVALS AT CARSON. The big gong, which is to sound the rounds, was put in place this morning. For many years it has been in use in a mine at Vir- ginia City, giving signals for the lowering and hoisting of the cars. Notwithstanding that but five days re- main before the battle, Corbett continued to- day his vigorous training. He started in with a ten-mile run over the rough mountain roads. For almost the entire distance he kept up his swinging dog trot and emerged from his rub-down as fresh as a 38-year-old bronche. A few hours’ rest and a by no means light luncheon, put him in shape for the hard work of the afternoon. He began it as usual with a half hour of wrist exercise, and followed it up with a vicious punching of the bag. Five games of hand ball with his brother Joe as a partner was the next number on the programme, and the champion, more fortunate than yesterday, was put in excel- lent humor by winning three of the games, He then took on McVey for a three-minute wrestling bout and left the big fellow badly winded and bruised by the exercise. With- out a moment’s intermission Jeffries was iven three minutes of hot sparring and oe Corbett followed with a similar amount of the same work. Billy Woods was then taken into the arena for practice in the style of fighting, which the agreement reached at the con- ference between Julian and Brady is like- ly to make one of the features of the fight. orbett demonstrated his ability to make it interesting for his opponent in this sort of work, and Woods’ punishment, despite his neumatic armor, was unusually severe. ach of the men was given four rounds, Corbett taking no rest between times. Trainer White, at the conclusion of the work, expressed his entire satisfaction with the champion's ability to beat Fitzsimmons at close fighting. The fever of battle has begun to pervade all social classes in Ne- vada and particularly m Carson City. The small boys talk it unceasingly, their elders discuss it on the street corners and in the saloons, and the members of the Legisla- ture. which is still in session, do much talking on the hitting ability of Fitz and The hotbed of all this sporting fever is the penitentiary, just southwest of the town, About three hundred convicts are confined there. Many of them are engaged in out- door work and have several times seen Cor- bett pass on his daily run, and nearly every day they see Bob Fitzsimmons with his red hair and blue sweater go past on his way to and from the city. They have caught the prevailing spirit and are showing them- selves “‘sporty’’ to the best of their rations of tobacco, their half holidays and every privilege which the rules of the inst tute will allow them to stake on the result of the Their betting is all the more fierce be- cause there is no possible show of their rison says the ivided between The warden of the It is not known definitely how many seats ed in every mall and it is as been anticipated by Stuart, but enough to pay the stake After a lengthy conference with Dan Stu- Geor Her and Rur.

There will be about two hundred on this train. Altogether, it is estimated that a total of about one thousand people have 3238 through and left Chicago for the 8 CORBETT TAKERS SHY. Plenty of Fitz Money in San Fran- cisco at Odds of 10 to 7. SAN FRANCISCO, Cal. March 13.—No large wagers have been made on the fight | in this city yet, although thousands of dol- lars are said to be ready to be put up. At Corbett's pool-rooms $7,000 has been placed so far on the fight, but in small bets, seldom exceeding $50. Fitzsimmons’ friends have been holding out for odds of 10 to 7, and yesterday there Was more of the Cornishman’s money of- fered at that odds than the Corbett admirers wanted to take. At Whitehead’s pool-rooms there was considerable Fitzsimmons money at that price, but no takers. Corbett’s backers are holding off for bet- ter odds. They say by next Tuesday they can place their money on even terms. The pool sellers do not expect they can place any large amount before Monday evening. KING'S LAKE CLUB. George A.

It was he who managed the successful team from this country that attracted world-wide attention in the recent Olympic games at Athens. Formerly trainer for Columbia College, then for Princeton and finally for Harvard University, Mr. Graham had much to do with raising the standard of collegiate sports. A small army of gentlemen have been guided by him since he left Harvard and took his present position, superintend- ent of the famous gymnasium of the Bos- ton Athletic Association. Three of his proteges, White, Brewer and New En- McCarthy, have ye won the gland championship at the mile, quarter- mile and five-mile run.

THE DOSE IS SMALL special to the News from Rome, Ga., says: A frightful passenger train wreck occurred | here at an early hour this morning, on the approach to the high bridge of the Southern Railway, over the Etowah River. The en- gine plunged down a bluff sixty feet high | into the river, with the engineer sticking to his post. The wreck caught fire and seven cars were burned. The injured: ENGINEER JAMES T. PITTMAN, left leg broken and badly cut and bruised; fa- tally hurt. FIREMAN ALFRED KENNEDY, inter- nally injured and bruised; fatal. EXPRESS MESSENGER POLK CUL- BERSON, leg badly lacerated. BAGGAGEMASTER WINSTON, pain- passenger; fully brui . JOHN SIMPSON, colored, badly bruised. All these.men live in Atlanta. Two other passengers whose names could not be learned were slightly injured. The train which was wrecked was the passenger train from Chattanooga, due here at 3:% this morning. It was composed of one Pullman sleeper, day coach, smoker, baggage and express car and five “ars of | erishable fast freight. About sixty feet rom the bridge is a trestie — A feet high crossing the Western & Atlantic Ra'‘lroad , tracks. Heavy rains caused the trestle to give way and the ree ly cars, baggage car and smoker fell into the cut, while the en- gine jumped the track and plunged into the river. The wreck caught fire from the stove in the baggage car. The Fire Department was summoned and many citizens hastened to the scene. They had much difficulty in cut- ting out and rescuing passengers in the smoking car. The Pullman and pay coach did not leave the track and were pushed back out of the fire. The escape from instant death of Bngi- neer Pittman, who bravely stuck to his pest, was almost miraculous. The abut- ment of the bridge tore the tender from the engine, which plunged down the bluff into the river. The engineer, with his leg broken, clung to his engine, and yelled for help. No one heard him, and finally he fell into the river and then swam ashore, At 1 o’clock this afternoon a large force is at work, clearing away the wreckage and rebuliding the trestle.

Burke called at the telegraph company's office Friday night and asked Chapman if there was an answer to a telegram sent during the day by Mrs. Baker, of 1112 North Sixth street, to a Mrs. Morris, in Louisville, Ky. Chapman said that there was no an- swer, and Burke insisted that the officials had not transmitted the message. Chap- man handed Burke a duplicate copy of the message, showing that tt had been sent, and Burke smatched the duplicate and refused to give it up.

The Salvation Army will spend the spring and summer getting in readiness the larg- est sheltering house west of the Mississippi to be opened in the fall. It is proposed to rent a large building in the neighborhood of Third and Market treets. & soon as a desirable one is se: cured the work of adapting the inside to the purpose will be begun. Accommoda- tion is wanted for from to 1.000 men. A — 1 wood yard will be run in connection with the proposed institution. If the pros- 9 lodger has not the cash to pay for is bed and breakfast he can saw logs or Split kindling to earn his keep. Those for- tunate enough to have the required few cents will be taken in without being re- quired to work. It is the intention of the projectors if enough funds can be raised to fit out a bathroom, and all . —— will find beds via this apartment. leanliness thus being ' gecu „ @ more wholesome and healthy condition can be maintained. Commander Booth-Tucker is in San Fran- cisco looking into Maj. Winchell’s allotment colonization settlement scheme, that pro- vides work for idle men in wooded lands d sawmills. He is expected to stop off St. Louis one day at least on his way back to the East. The sheltering house idea will be laid before him for his sanc- tion, which is taken far granted, and the summer camp meeting will be discussed. An effort will be made to hold a large public meeting while he is in the city. The floods have been overcome, traffic fs resumed, and all Baltimore & Ohio South- western Railway trains are running on time. CHILD’S RETURN ORDERED. Circuit Court Instructs E. B.

She Is the Girl Who Was Put Out of the Planters’ for Receiving Young Fay in Her Room at Midnight. The adolescent but irrepressible John T. Fay, son of the somnolent Anna Eva, has married the young woman whom Mr. Felix O’Connor, moral guardian of the Planters’ Hotel, put on the freight elevator a couple of weeks ago, after having “discovered her and young Mr. Fay in a room after mid- night under circumstances that shocked his supersensitive soul. Her name before her marriage was Eva Dean and she lived at N. 2 Lafayette av- enue. In taking this step the 19-year-old Lotha- rio has either displayed a great amount of 3 courage or a lamentable lack of sense. Judging from his previous brief but somewhat lurid career, the preponderance of evidence favors the latter supposition. For the time being the young couple are out of the way of the world’s wicked eyes, and if Mamma Fay keeps her word the next time they put in an appearance they are Hable to be hungry, for she vowed by all the sheeted ghosts of the universe that if her boy married this woman he should never have another dollar of hers. The ceremony took place in O' Fallon, III., the early part of this week. It was per- formed there purposely to avoid notoriety, but the loose-jointed tongue of the young husband w ed freely about it, once the knot was tied, and a tell-tale hotel register adds corroboration to his hymeneal hymn.. Everyone who became interested in Miss Fay's exhibitions at the Fourteenth Street Theater will remember John's little esqca- pade at the Planters’. During the second week of his mother’s engagement he took a dark-haired, dark-eyed young woman to the hotel about midnight and registered her as “Mrs. Fenton,“ She was given a room and sent to it, while John hung around the — a short time before going up- stairs. When he did go, instead of seeking his own couch, like a good boy, he dropped in on “Mrs. Fenton.” Then Felix O Connor. who has hair-trigger suspicions with him always, dropped in after him, and there was the deuce to pay. The result of it all was that “Mrs. Penton” was chased out of the hotel on the freight elevator and John was sent back to his room, where he stayed about ten minutes, and then fol- lowed “Mrs. Fenton.“ He told his friends the next day that he found her, and other- wise boasted of his gay performances. Of course, the affair reached his mother’s ears, and there was trouble for John, but it didn’t rattle him; and after a hitch or two with her second sight, Miss Fay found out who the woman was, and John had to stand another round, but he came up smil- ing. So taken was he with the young woman, who was none other than Miss Dean, ac- cording to John’s own lips, that during the third week of the engagement here, he de- cided to marry her. his caused terrible maternal commotion and John conceived the bright idea of having his lady love ap- peal to Miss Fay. The girl consented and called on the mother at the ters’. It could not have been a pleasant visit, for Fay in- formed the young woman that iff she ex- pected to marry the boy she must also ex- pect to support him. She declared that she never. would have him about her or give him another cent as long as he lived. John was also given to understand this and it cooled his ardor for the time being. He was his mother’s treasurer and had a good thing of handling all of her money. The result of this hint was that John left town with the company and proceeded with — —4 matteo Foo R — where they have en playin s week. But en's — were too tightly fastened on him. He couldn't stay away. He came back to St. Louis during the early part of the week, met the girl in O’Fallon and mar- ried her. Thursday he brought his bride to St. Louis with him and registered at the Belvedere Hotel. Then he went out and told his friends how it all wappenes Friday night he paid his bill at the Bel- vedere ond disappeared—no one knows where. Among the other highly spiced confidences which John passed around promiscuously among his acquaintances was one to the effect that Eva told his mother that she had loved John not wisely, but too well, and that he was the only man of whom she could honestly say this. Of course there is a law against this sort of thing Wer certain circumstances, but Miss Fay set her hindsight to working and fi ured it out that inasmuch as Eva was and John only 19 the shoe fitted the other foot and the bluft didn’t work with her a little bit. Eva has been rather a gay girl around town for a year or two. She had a room at 2622 Lafayette avenue and ate in restaurants on the catch-as-catch-can plan. She was a frequent visitor at the South Side track and was considered quite wise enough to take care of herself under an circumstances. A ri at the doorbell of Eva's lodging house turday morning brought a young woman to the door. In response to ques- tions she said that Eva had left for her home, in O'Fallon, Monday. ; “Did you know she was married?’ asked e reporter. “No,” replied the girl. Who'd she mar- ry, Mr. McCarthy?’ : “Which Mr. McCarthy” “Mr. Jack McCarthy, the stock man. She was going with him and said she was going m * to marry . “No,” said the reporter. “She married Anna va Fay's son. “Oh!” the girl exclaimed, as she blushed bit, and she hastened to explain that she nothing about the fair a’s doings.

He Made the Books Show That His Dealings With the German Na- tional Bank Were Square. Sterling C. Edmunds, a brother of ex- Judge Henry L. Edmunds, who was recently indicted in the United States District Court at Louisville on a charge of conspiracy to defraud the German National Bank of that city, returned from there Friday night. He was in a happy frame of mind when he went to his home at 3166 School street because he felt that he had vindicated his integrity. He says that he explained his relations with the bank to United States District At- torney Smith so that his honesty was ap- parent in all his transactions. The indict- ment against him, he says, will be nolle prossed. Mr. Edmunds was in the tobacco business in Louisville up to a short time ago under the firm name of S. C. Edmunds & Co. He purchased large quantities of tobacco, draw- ing against the German bank to pay for it and depositing the warehouse receipts with the bank as collateral. Before this transaction was completed Mr. Edmunds moved from Louisville to St. Louis. Then the bank failed, and it was discovered that President McKnight had, wrecked it. The tobacco dealer’s account with it was in such shape that he appeared to be in on the deal. His departure from the city ‘was deemed suspicious, and the Federal Grand-jury returned a verdict against him. Officers came here ten days ago and took him back to Louisville. He went straight to District Attorney W. F. Smith and re- lated his version of the difficulty. It was of such a character that the lawyer sent him to the bank with Receiver Courtney to go over the books and make proof of his claims. “I took my books with me,“ said Mr. Edmunds, “and spent two nights in the bank with the receiver. I accounted for every pound of tobacco and every dollar that I had drawn from the bank. When I had finished it was perfectly evident that I had been entirely ey pee The trouble was that McKnight had run in a lot of his checks against my account, and this made it look bad for me.. “Receiver Courtney expressed himself as being thoroughly satisfied and explained the situation to District Attorney Smith. The latter, of his own motion, then had the bond reduced from $2,000 to $500, mereiy nominal. I was asked to remain in the city so that if anything should turn up I would be on hard. “The indictment against me will be nolle prossed when it comes up in court, and my connection with the case will then end.“ Banker McKnight has been indicted on nine counts. He is charged with breaking almost every law governing national banks. He is the man who entered into a con- 1 with a number of Alderman to loot the city as well as the bank. The failure of the latter saved the city. Six of the Aldermen have also been indicted. DUMPING GARBAGE. Another Effort Being Made to Save the River From Pollution. Another attempt is to be made to prevent the dumping of garbage in the Mississippi River the coming summer. Efforts were made last year and the year before, but failed. John Scullin, Charles P. Chouteau, Pierre Chouteau and Alex H. Smith, residing on the bluffs in South St. Louis, and the Iron Mountain Co., by its pres dent, C. C. Maf- fitt, have sent a letter to Hon. Henry Flad of the Mississippi River Commission, claim- ing that the stench last summer made their residences untenantable and caused illness. Unless relief is given they say the suburb will be ruined. A copy was sent to Harbor Commissioner Stone. In his reply he says that the pres- ent situation is due to the deficiencies of the 8 contract and complicated by the tornado. he remedy, he thinks, is in mu- nicipal legislation supplementing Federal legislation. He also calls attention to the evils arisin from the dumpings of sweepings, ashes and other insoluble material in the harbor. Mr. Stone is strongly opposed to anything being dumped in the river.

ALL ABOUT A BOND FORFEITURE /( law” taxing street railway corporations 2 Erb Relieved His Profanity by Telling the Judge He Didn’t Know Any thing About Law. —— Judge Stevenson’s Saturday morning ses- sion in the Second District Police Court wound up with a sensational incident, not scheduled on Marshal Henry Peterson's docket of offences. It was a serious clash of authority be- tween the Judge and the court’s Marshal, in which profanity was profusely mixed with reflections on judicial ability. Bad feeling was engendered during the session of the court when Judge Stevenson took occasion to sharply criticise the Mar- shals for allowing Mamie Rentz, a dive- keeper wanted on a bond forfeiture, to leave the courtroom. She had heen arrested Fri- day on a new charge, and at the request of her attorney the case was continued by Mr. Dodge, When it was called the court refused to allow a continuance and ordered her called on the bond, She was not pres- ent, and both sureties were forfeited. When the session was about over Attorney Henry Watson approached the bar with Peter Fitzpatrick, whose bond had been forfeited on March 9, The lawyer explained that the defendant had been told by his counsel on that day that his case was con- tinued, and as he was not well he left the court room. He now asked that he be al- lowed to adjust the matter by the payment of costs. udge Stevenson thought this would establish a bad precedent, and refused the request. He ordered that Fitzpatrick be locked up. When court @djourned Chief Deputy City Marshal Henry Erb, in charge of the court, told the Judge he could not hold the man, as no judgment had been entered against him. The only action possible was against the bondsman for the recovery of the $200. Don't tell me what is law!“ shouted Judge Stevenson, with an oath. — — vou and your law! I know my Turn him duty. Turn that man loose! while his loose!“ exclaimed the Marshal, deputies ran to obey his order. Attorneys and court officers gathered round and stared in speechless astonishment at the proceeding. Judge Stevenson looked calmly at the ex- —— officer but made no reply to his out- urst. “IT tell you I know some law myself,“ shouted the Marshal, pacing the floor, “‘and that is more than you do, All the law you know could be put in a peanut shell. You never practiced three days before going on the bench. Where's the prisoner? Oh, there he is! Now he is out and he won’t be locked up here again.“ With his parting shot Mr. Erb turned to. his duties at the desk. Throughout the scene the judge never interposed a word, and when it was finished walked from the room with Mr. Dodge. There was a great hubbub when the door closed behind them. Most of the crowd ap- plauded the Marshal, only a few deprecating the affair. As a whole the hangers-on en- joyed it, the remembrance of fines enhancing the pleasure of hearing the Judge roasted. J could not hold the man,“ said Mr. Erb, when the room had been cleared. There was no judgment or fine against him and he could not go to the Work-house. Neither had I any papers to warrant putting him in the holdover. His bond has been for- feited. All I can do is to take steps to col- lect it from his bondsman. “Judge Stevenson should have known this. If he didn’t I think I told him.“ ALMOST A FIGHT. Two Fiery Citizens Nearly Come to Blows. A certain short, stout citizen of St. Louls, well known on the Stock Exchange, was only separated from a tall, slender stranger with whom he was endeavoring to mix things, by the timely interference of friends this morning. Neither party was in what would have been called condition,“ but from the vehemence of the argument —— to the set-to, a lively fight would ave resulted. The trouble originated from the simple little sentence that seems to be puzzling a number of people just now. The stout, short belligerent argued that effer- vescent Hunyadi Salts IS the most perfect Aperient and ative,”” while his tall friend seemed equally sure that Efferves- cent Hunyadi Salts ARE the most perfect Aperient and Laxative.’’ The question is to be settled by the public school children this month, but they could not wait for that. On one point they could and did agree, however, and that was that the Salts were all right. SUNDAY CONCERTS. Symphony Orehestra Will Again Be Heard at Music Hall.

There was a rush about the Missouri pie counter at R. C. Kerens’ office in the Secu- rity Building Saturday, but the country poli- ticians who called to interview the silvery- haired leader, who has access to the ear of President McKinley, could not even cash in hopes. Office-seeking is mighty poor business these days, if Mr. Kerens’ words to the Post-Dispatch count for anything. “You can say that Mr. McKinley has not tackled the distribution of offices, and he will not until after the tariff bill is passed. Hard times, idle factories, unemployed workingmen, these constitute the emer- gency just now, and Congress and the Presi- dent are bound to receive it.
