WASHINGTON, D.C., July 15,—The strug- gle over the sugar schedule continues. The agents of the American Refining Co. in the Senate have not abated their efforts. They still insist on a duty that will bring huge profits to the Trust. The members of the conference committee from the House remain steadfast. They have not yielded to the onslaughts of the Havemeyer interests. The sugar schedule is no nearer settlement than it was yester- day. Phe fall in the market price of sugar cer- tificates was due to intelligence from Wash- ington that reached New York. The street previously ran away with itself on fake re- ports sent out from interested sources here, Some of the so-called information was sent directly by Senators. The huge stock jobbing scheme was large- ly of Washington origin. Senator Jones of the rotten borough State of Nevada could tell a good deal about the upward movement in sugar if he would loosen his tongue. He is the Mephistophies on whom the chief responsibility falls. This long-headed old man, the brains of the silver movement, is carrying the weight of the Sugar Trust scheme. He is responsible to no one. His election to the Senate does not depend on popular sentiment. Said a Nevada man: “It makes no differ- ence what Jones may do. He might defy almost any rule of life and Nevada would not mind. He can re-electe himself as often as he likes, and no one can prevent him.” Senator Jones insists that the Sugar Trust shall have its advantages. His attitude is that of a Dick Turpin or a Claude Duval, It is “stand and deliver’ with Jones, and there is no certainty that this bold agent of the Benate will not obtain at least a portion of his demands. Speaker Reed's lips have been firmly set. He has talked with Senators and Repre- sentatives. He has lent his powerful in- fluence in behalf of the House sugar schéd- ule, an influence that is felt stronger than ever. Said an intimate friend of Mr. Reed: “The power of the Speaker for good will prevail against all but the power of money.” By this it was meant that the Trust will strive to attain its ends by bribery, direct or indirect. ’ The advocates of moderate protection for Sugar realize that at the present stage of the contest the unlimited resources of the Trust are likely to be drawn on. Put before the House of Representatives on a test vote the Senate conferees’ pre- tensions would be overwhelmingly rejected But Jones, he of Nevada, fresh from the circles that revolve about the Chase Na- tional Bank in Wall Street, demands that the Trust shall be satisfied, at least in part of its claims. Senator Hanna cannot afford to cut off @ great source of campaign contributions. He has need of every dollar he can raise with which to elect himself to the Senate. No one realizes better than he that the political contest in Ohio next November is fraught with grave danger to his hopes. The hands of Hanna is visible itn the con- struction of the committee of conference. He desired Grosvenor of Ohio to have a Place in the conference. Grosvenor is a member. To-day Grosvenor is talking loudly that he is not weakening. He em- ploys unprintable language in making his assertion. Time will show what he does. A member of the House said to-day that he would not dare to vote for any benefits to the Sugar Trust over what the Dingley bill gives it. . “Il would be turned down at the polls itn my district were I to do so,”’ he declared. This tame Representative also stated that he knew of a large number of Republicans ~—more than fifty—who entertained the same belief as regards themselves. One of the Shrewdest political observers tn Washing- ton remarked that Speaker Reed Mms the Opportunity of a lifetime. “He should act on it without fail. He has been told so repeatedly and he fully comprehends the situation. Mr. Reed will command an enormously increased popu- larity throughout the country if he will continue to amtagonize the Jones plot to Sgerandize the Sugar Trust. He could bet- ter afford to yield to the Senate on every other schedule of the tariff bill that is in Gispute than to surrender to the Trust. If Mecessary he should quit the chair and on the floor of the House denounce the Sugar Trust's work and appeal to the country. He has numerous precedents for such a course. Henry Clay set an example. The country would be behind Mr. Reed. If nec- essary the tariff bill should be delayed. I Go not believe that Mr. Dingley will yield to the swashbuckler raid of the Trust through Jones’ aid.”’ The Trust agents have set up a cry that Bpeaker Reed is meddling with what doe, Hot concern him. Some €0 so far as to assert that the Speaker is directly with the legislation of the Senate. They are really greatly alarmed over the situation, know- ing full well that Mr. Reed's power of evil to the Trust is immense. The bluff Speaker is fully aware of these criticisms. He strode about on the Senate side of the Capitol with a determined vis- cisms as the sugar men throw at him. RAISED-A RUMPUS Cardinal Vaughan’s Jubilee Sermon Circulated in Pamphlet Form. ii (Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch.) LONDON, July 15..—A storm has been created in the Church of England by some of the passages in the jubilee sermon of Cardinal Vaughan, Catholic Archbishop of Westminster. Owing to the fact that it was preached at the height of the jubilee festivities, it re- ceived but scant attention from the press, but {t has since been put Into pamphlet form and a quarer of a million copies printed for distribution in the various dio- ceses, The passages that have raised a rumpus are those in which the Cardinal congratu- lates the high church party in the Church of England upon having permeated the Church with Catholic doctrines and prac- tices, and in which he expresses his thanks for this “partial conversion” to the old faith of England. The church papers also contend that in thanking God “for the divine favor which surrounded the Queen with a special grace from the beginning of her reign,”’ the Cardl- nal literally admits that his church is nat the only true church, inasmuch as, accord- ing to his own faith, Queen Victoria is a heretic. Hence, they say, the admission that a heretic can be endowed with a special grace and be surrounded by divine favor is one of the most extraordinary that has ever come from a Catholic prelate. It is understood that the address was di- rectly inspired from the Vatican and repre- sents the Holy Fiather’s personal senti- ments. BURIED IN THE RIVER. Workmen Removing Car Loads of Stone From Bodies of Drowned Companions, Twenty men went to work early Thurs- day morning to recover the bodies of John Choun and Robert Hatfield, supposed to be at the bottom of the Missouri River under cars loaded with stone which were wrecked on the old trestle under the Bellefontaine bridge near Alton. The trestle has been there for years and is used for hauling stone for revetment purposes at that point. The water had undermined the foundation posts. When a heavily loaded train of eight cars on the St. Lou's, Keokuk & Northwestern was slowly moving the trestle gave way within a few feet of the west pier of the bridge. There were eight men on the cars—the loading crew—six of them jumped for their livés and escaped with broken ankles and arms and bru ses, but Choun and Hatfield went over with the car on which they were sitting. The stone pinioned their bodies deep in the mud at the bottom of the river. The work of recovering the bodies is prov- ing difficult on account of the rushing water and the preet mass of rock under which the bodies of the ill-fated men lie, twenty-five feet below. It is doubtful whether the bodies will be recovered at all unless the river greatly recedes at that point. The mishap oc- curred In an angle of the river around which the rickety trestle wound. There is a deep eddy there all the year round, Choun was the foreman of the crew, about - sare mtg Mee 7 at Bucklin, Mo.

Tode Johns6n, 12 years old, of 310 South Third street fractured the skull of Wilson O'Neill, awed 11, of 312 Gratiot street Thurs- day morning with a hoe. Wilson may die. The boys are colored. They were dig- ging worms for bait in an alley back of Cedar street. Wilson accidentally upset Tode’s bucket. Thep quarreled and Tode brought the hoe down on Wilson's head with all his might. It was sharp and cleft the bone, Wilson was knocked down and rendered unconscious, He was carried home and re- vived, The Johnson boy dropped the hoe and ran away and has not bé@en seen since. Wilson’s mother staunched the flow of blood and took the boy to the Dispensary. Dr. Kearney sent him to the City Hospital]. Dr. Kearney says the fracture is compound and a fatal termination is not improbable. Mrs, O'Neill said she would have the Johnson boy arrested. " LET THE WOMAN Go.

It Will Take a Full Hand in Politics and Pay Attention to Candidates, r IT WILL HAVE NO MORE HOMEO- PATHS IN THE STATE INSTITUTIONS. ‘(Missouri Medical League of St. Louis’’ Promises to Be a Great Power in Public Affairs The city will now have a Doctors’ Trust. It has tried many other kinds of unions and combinations of power, but this latest organization is unique in its purposes, fer- tile in resources and big with dramatic pos- eibilities. . The Missouri Medical League of St. Louis, which has applied for a charter, proposes not only to work great reforms in the med- ical profession, but also to take an active interest in State politics and “scrutinize candidates for office with a view of electing those who will advance the legislation de- manded by the league.” In a political way the league will stand together either as the trades unions, the A. P. A. or any other sem!-political business organization, It will take a hand fn primary elections for delegates to conventions, especially with a view to the nomination of legislative candidates favorable to the reforms it wishes to engraft on the State statutes, and it will not overlook delegates to State con- verrtions where a Governor is to be nomi- nated and Justices of the Supreme Court, or an Attorney General who is to advise the Governor in construing new legislation. The scope of work the league has mapped out for itself is wide and appeals with no little force in many particulars to the pub- lic. The fneorporators are men of. character, who condemn quackery in all its forms, and who would elevate their profession. They are: Dr. Robert M. Funkhouser, President; Dr. P. D. Connolly, Vice-Presi- dent; Dr. H. Wheeler Bond, Secretary, and Dr. W. V. Loftus, Treasurer. The officers, with Drs. Wm. J. Langan, L. T. Reismeyer, R. H. Finley, William Nifong, L. E. New- man and F. G. Nifong, constitute the Board of Trustees. These gentlemen are all “regulars.” The line is drawn at homeopaths, and Gov. Stephens is not likely to receive any resolu- tions of a complimentary nature from them on his reorganization of the management of the Fulton Insane Asylum. The charter states that the object of the union is to advance the interests of its members “professionally, financially and politically; to influence doctors to become citizens; to vote at every election; also, to collect evidence of any hospital and dis- pensary abuse and to exclude well-to-do persons from medical charities, thereby se- curing proper care and attention for the worthy poor; to secure the adoption of laws commanding the appointment by the court of medical experts qualified for their work, and to insure the passage of laws regulating the practice of medicine in the State and United States and to secure the establish- ment of a national bureau of health.” One of the first political fights the league proposes to engage in is to force the pas- sage of a law by the Legislature remedying the decision of the Supreme Court in the recent case whereby it overturned the rul- ing of the State Board of Health in re- quiring a higher curriculum for graduates at medical colleges before they can practice medicine. : This will open up afresh the war on the cheap medical colleges. President Funkhouser, in speaking of the league’s purposes, said to a Post-Dispatch reporter: “The doctors are the only profession with- out compact organization to take part in public affairs. We do not propose to inter- fere with any of the various medical so- cieties. In fact, they have in most instances signifiel a willingness to come into the league. “This free private dispensary system has become an Iniquity, especially in our col- leges. It is free in one way, it is true, as everybody can go to the institution. Men worth $100,000 go to them and there is a bait for them, because the patient will go away with prescriptions to be filled and the doctor will probably have to call at his home. Then, too, in all of these free dispensaries there is a big sign reading: ‘Patients Desir- ing Immediate Treatment Can Procure it by Paying the Superintendent 25 Cents.’ “I am told the superintendent of one of our medical colleges withea free dispensary attachment pays $100 a month to hold the job. There is evidently a richly concealed mint somewhere about’such places. “Then there is the 50-cents a month hos- pital with the manager a prominent member of some sectarian denomination, a leader at prayer meeting, an officer of some secret lodge or two, with his name on every poster or at the head of every catalogue it sends out. This is the class of men who are forc- ing themselves to the front as benefactors of mankind and the healer of all their ills, without money and without price. Yet these same places, these goodly sanitariums, have in many instances, so I am informed, from 6500 to 1,500 people paying in & cents a month each—a snug sum. There may two gr three or half a dozen of the number sick in the hospital during the month, but the contributing public is paying the freight. “Our union proposes to snatch the mask from these alleged charitable institutions pe aed pee, a nearies, Soins at Ke | —— ull measu hari erly caring for the needy,” We “* - ee BUY it eS: uN “ bi v= Pi a what eS é He > eh ae sa ~ Ad ie OST age oi wr. f - 3 7. 3 : hy & ee ee A eae A i : 4% vg : ae ‘ ow MISSOURI'S GREAT MISTAKE THE NEGLECTED LESSON OF FILLEY’S KNOWING LITTLE DOG. ——— lll a THE | BULLETIN | | POST ) | DISPATCH | | : ee -_-. ex %: rT Z ai Wil » ii!

LONDON, July 154.—While among the general public here the tone of Secretary Sherman’s.letter to Ambassador Hay re- garding the Bering Sea seal regulations is greatly resented, the correspondent of the Associated Press is in a position to say that whatever criticism the British Government may have to make on the phraseology of the communication, the latter has not in any way affected unfavorably the negotia- tions which Col. Hay has been conducting. A conference will be held in Washington during the autumn, at which the United States, Great Britain, Russia and Japan will be represented. Since the presentation of Secretary Sher- man’s note to Lord Salisbury, Ambassador Hay has had repeated conferences with his lordship, all of which have been of the most friendly character. The most concillatory spirit is being manifested by the British for- eign office, as is evident by the decision to hold a conference, which, although not yet formally announced, may be regarded as settled. It may also be taken for granted that Canada does not oppose this decision. Mr. Davies, the Canadian Minister of Marine, in an interview with the correspondent of the Associated Press to-day, sald: “We regard the latest proposals of the United States as entirely reasonable, There is the friendliest feeling with regard to the negotiations between the two Governments, and, in view of this, the two peoples should not be resentful. I think this is a reasone- ble view of the matter.” : The telegram from London indicates a distinct come-down by the British Govern- ment, which has persistently refused to re- epen the question of seal extermination or take any step to aid the United States in the effort to stop it, though urgently and repeatedly asked to do so. It looks like a repetition of the Venezuelan incident. May Be Foc ling His Poor Kin. Special to the Post-Dispatch. GLOVERSVILLE, N.

KANSAS CITY, July 15.—The order of the Police Commissioners of Kansas City, Kan., that women prisoners must work on the stone pile along with the men has caused a great commotion and has not yet been put into effect. Perhaps it may never be. The Current Event Club, an organization of wo- men, has expressed itself as immeasurably shocked, and has called an indignation meet- ing to protest against the “‘threatened dis- grace and degradation of womanhood.” The members threaten that enforcemen: of the order means the retirement of the Police Commissioners from office at the first opportunity, and as women vote in Kansas municipal elections, the threat is not regarded as altogether an idle onc and may have its desired effect. Their principal objection to the rock pile plan is that part of the order compelling women to work without skirts and to wear overalls instead. The police officials stand by their order and say that the first women prisoners whose fines are not paid will go to the rock pile, There has been no chance yet to put the order in effect, as friends of all women ar- rested have come forward and paid their fines. NEW COUNTERFEIT. Leck Out for Ten-Dollar Silver Certifi- cates of the Series of 1891. WASHINGTON, D. C., July 15.—Chief Hazen of the Secret Service has given notice of the discovery of a new counterfeit ten dollar silver certificate. It is of the series of 1891, check letter D, with the small car- mine seal, the portrait of Hendricks and the names of Messrs. Tillman and Morgan as Register and Treagurer respectively. The counterfeit is described as apparently a wood cut production, very poorly executed, the seal being light pink instead of carmine, the numbering irregular and the printing and engraving bad.

C., July 15.—Iilinols has received thus far twelve consulates and any number of choice department places, while Missouri has received: one consulate and one assistant secretaryship, Thig un- equal distribution of the good places Col. R. C. Kerens, Republican National Com- mitteeman for Missouri, has come tmck to Washington to rectify. Missouri should have at least six con- sulates and two of the unimportant mis- sions, acoording to the Kerens idea, and this fact will be earnestly pressed to the President’s attention. Missouri Republicans have been given many good promises, but no patronage yet. Unless the President changes his mind the Missourians will have to wait indefinitely. Yesterday an Ohio man captured the mission to Corea which ex-Congressman George Crowther of 8t. Joseph was after, and several places in England, which Missourians had filed appll- cations for, have recently gone to others. Joe Black of Richmond still has a chance for Manchester. In the list of appointments to-day Mis- sourl was given two tmasters. T. L. Wills at Lamar and ank E. Miller at Neosho were appointed. The appointment of Wills at Lamar is really a turndown for National. Committeeman Kerens, ag he did not indorse him and was actively working for another man. Wills’ appointment is due to the fact that in addition to having the indorsement of ex-Congressman Burton he had the backing of the patrons of the of- fice, WASHINGTON, July 15.—The President to-day sent to the ate the following nominations: Roland T.

HANNIBAL, Mo., July 15—About 1 o'clock last night three masked men went to the toll gate on the Hannibal & New London gravel road, at Salt River, and calié¢ out Jacob Cartater, the toll gate keeper. house he was commanded to hold up bis hands, the three men pointing huge guns in his face. They then tied his hands behind his bach and led him into the house, where they alse tied Mrs. Cartater. The robbers then demanded the money that was supposed to be in the house, be- longing to the gravel road company. Mrs. Cartater finally told them where @ small amount of money belonging to her was secreted, and they soon got that. Not being satisfied, they tortured Mr. Car- tater by burning his bare feet and legs with torches until he finally told them where the company’s money was. They secured this, nearly $100, and, after taking a rifle, shotgun, revolver, two gold watches and some jewelry, left the house, About two hours afterward Mrs. Cartater succeeded in liberating herself and assisted in berating her husband, who all this time was in great agony. Messengers were sent to New Lendon, notifying the officers there, and also to Hannibal. | The officers have been scouring the county to-day, but have not yet made any arrests.

This is the first considerable action in favor of the strike in the State, and agitators had noth- ing to do with it. The men’ had a local union and struck voluntarily. SYLVESTER SCOVEL. DE ARMITT’S SINCERITY. Arbitrators’ Cheirman Assuines the Responsibility for It. Special to the Post-Dispatch. PITTSBURG, Pa., July 15.—The arbitra. tors are in high glee, and say that they are now on the road to a settlement of the troubles in the Pittsburg district, and con- sequently the settlement of the strike. Gen. Little of Ohio, who is chairman of the Ohio Board and is acting chairman of the joint board meetings, said: We might truly say we have made a start towards the solution of the vexatious uni- formity question, I had a long talk with Mr. De Armitt, for whose sincerity in the matter I have agreed to become personally responsible. He told me none of the Pitts- burg operators are making any money, and he will do all he can to secure signatures and push the new uniformity agreement. I think he is thoroughly in earnest. ‘T had a talk with Messrs. Dolan anda Warner, and told them of my meeting with De Armitt. They were well pleased and will also assist us in getting signatures to the uniformity agreement. Mr. De Armitt insisted that the Pennsylvania Gas Coal Co. and the West Moreland Coal Co. must sign. ‘Iam going to put a clause in the agree- ment providing that if only 90 per cent sign it will become a ust as if the full 97 per cent agreed to it. he agreement wil! be drawn in such a manner that it will hold in court.

PITTSBURG; Pa., July 15.—District Presi- dent Dolan is so well pleased with the progress of the new uniformity movement that he has wired National President M, D.

This is no fairy tale. During the last strike we paid the expenses of one man who was in the ‘hospital for three months. After break- ing three of his ribs the deputies drove him away from his home.

PITTSBURG, Pa., July 15.—While the set- tlement of the miners’ strike on the basis of a true uniformity in prices and condi- tions In the Pittsburg district is regarded as almost a foregone conclusion (by the arbitration commissioners), many opera- tors haye no confidence in the success of the plan. They claim it will be impossible to get the operators on the Pennsylvania road to consent to pay the same rate as may be decided upon for the Pittsburg district. The last uniformity movement,” said one, ‘was a humbug, and this attempt will be the same. The plan is all right and De Armitt’s position fs all + iy but uniformity ,can never be established in the Pittsburg district.” The members of the Joint Board spent the entire morning discussing “true uniformi- ty."” as proposed by President De Armitt, and they believe that the plan can soon be established.

The company decided to shut down indefinitely. All the heaters were taken into the Iron and. Steel Association Amalgamated a closed until the last night. The mill may be settlement of the strike. — DE ARMITT’S PLAN Regarded as a Scheme to Delay Settle- ment of Strike. CLEVELAND, O.,. July 15.—Cleveland operators regard De Armitt’s true uniform- ity plan. as a scheme to delay the settle- ment of the strjke. “T will gladly sign the true uniformity agreement,” said Mr. Thomas Young, ‘but I will net spend one hour’s time promoting it. If De Armitt means the Pittsburg dis- trict proper I think 9% per cent of the oper- ators will agre@to it. But if he proposes to include the operators on the Pennsylvania lines east of Pittsburg, his true uniformity scheme will fall Mr. Young says that a great many opera- tors are willing to pay the 69-cent rate. WEST VIRGINIA MINES All Busy Except Pan-Handle and Flemington Collieries. WHEELING, W. Va., July 15.—The only change in the mining situation in West Vir- ginia is the closing of the mines of the Flemington Coat Co., on the Baltimore « Ohio, near Grafton. These mines get out coal for the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad. The Tyrconnell and Bates mines, near Flemington, are still at work. Several of the organizers now working in the State re- port progress, but no more mines have been | closed.

HUNTINGTON'S INFLUENCE. White Made Warm Charges and Stew- art’s Effort to Recall a Res- olution Defeated. Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, D. C., July 15.—Senator Stewart of Nevada and Senator White of California indulged in a sensational per- sonal colloquy in the Senate to-day. It was over the San Pedro harbor, in which many St. Louisans are interested heavily in a financial way. Three days ago the Senate passed the White concurrent resolution directing the Secretary of War to advertise for bids for constructing the inner harbor at San Pedro. To-day Senator Stewart, representing Collis P. Huntington and the Southern Pac'fic, made a determined effort to have the reso- lution recalled. As the Secretary of War has refused to do anything unless ordered by Congress the friends of San Pedro had to make a sharp fight to head off Stew- art. In asking for the recall Senator Stewart made statements which Senator White bluntly declared were not true. The Sec- retary of War had asked for the instruc- tions given, said Mr. White, and only Collis P. Huntington was protesting. Senator White said that he had with him the sup- port of the other Senator from California and every member of the congressionai dele. gation and all the people of the State. They could speak for California without the aid of the Senator of Nevada, who represented the interests of the Southern Pacific. Senator Stewart hotly retorted that he had never advocated an unclean thing, and while he was Huntington's friend he did not al- low that to infidence his vote. To this Senator White retorted that the inference drawn must be the correct one, California were all for the rn eo rintle Huntington was against it. The incident closed with an overwhelming yote against Stewart's proposition, MALON WEAKENS. Tried to Run a Bluff on Senator Mason and Got Called. | ; to the Post-Dispatch. \ WASHINGTON, D.

Witnesses Who Will Testify That Hep- bert Was Pleading for Mercy When Killed. ALL THE EMPLOYES OF THE TONIC BEER FACTORY HAVE BEEN SUMMONED. Powder Burns Seem to Indicate Rich- mond Fired While Clcse to His Brother. The case of Dr. Richmond Cornwall, charged with murder in the first degree, will come up for trial In the Court of Cnim- inal Correction Friday morning. Many surprises are promised by the Police Department and also by the Deputy Sheriffs who have been working on the case. From an interview with a prominent po- ice official a reporter for the ost-Dispatch earned that the State expects to prove: 1. That Herbert Cornwall was the pos- sessor of a secret concerning Richmond. That when the blows were being rained on his head-—-a hammer and jug being the weapons used—he was on his knees, pleading for mercy and calling for help. 8. That Herbert’s shoes were off and his suspenders down, showing he had been rest- ng. 4.That the powder burne indicate that Dr. Richmond Cornwall stood much nearer his brother than was believed from the testi- mony at the Inquest. In substantiation of the first is a mass of documentary evidence in the possession of Detective Sam Allender, the nature of which he will not reveal, Also, the testi- mony of Herbert's widow. She was closeted with Prosecuting Attorney Mulvfhill an hour Thursday morning and made some im- portant statements. To prove the second, there are several employes, Hugh Finnerty among the num- er As to the third there are a number of wit- nesses who did not consider the matter of importance at the time. oncerning the powder burns the Coro- ner’s staff will be summoned to testify. Mrs. Herbert Cornwall, in her conversa- tion with Prosecuting Attorney Mulvihill supplies a motive for murder and she will make the same statement under oath at the preliminary hearing Friday. “On the night of the day on whiich my husband’s mother was buried,’ said Mrs. Cornwall, ‘“‘Herbert was overcome with rief. Richmond and his sister, Mrs. Ellen ‘hittier, were in the room with Herbert and myself. Herbert asked his brother and sister if they would be true to him. Emma replied that it was her mother’s dying re- quest and it would be respected. “Richmond said nothing. Herbert seemed relieved and said he was not afraid that Richmond would turn against him. ‘If he does,’ he said, ‘I will turn him up for that job he did in Kansas City.’ - “All three seemed to understand it, for they all knelt down and took an oath to be true to each other. “T asked Herbert once what it was he knew about Richmond. He said he had romised not to tell it, but if at any time ichmond should ever go back on him he me something about that Kansas City > that would send Richmond to prison.” Mrs. Cornwall detailed to the Prosecuting Attorney the incidents of her life, from the time she was married two years ago until since the murder, most of which has al- ready been told in the Post-Dispatch. Prosecuting Attorney Mulvihill was seen after his private conslutation with Mrs. Cornwall. “There Is ce ae pecullar in the fact that Mrs. Cornwall did not spend the night at home the night before the murder,” said Mr. Mulvihill. “She says Herbert had onl been drinking beer and had not been drun for some time. He was away from home the evening before the murder. Ever since his mother died Mrs. Cornwall said she Was nervous, That night Dr. John Corn- wall went to the house and suggested that as Herbert might be out until late it might be well for her and her baby to go to her father’s home. She went. Before going. however, she said she would be back at 7 o'clock to prepare breakfast. “The doctor told her to never mind. ‘Nine o'clock will be plenty of time,’ the old doc- tor replied. “It is possible that Mrs. Cornwall was sent away in anticipation of what followed.” DR. CORNWALL IS HERE. Will Have His Preliminary Hearing Before Judge Murphy Friday. Dr. Richmond Cornwall, who murdered his brother, Herbert, a week ago, returned o Bt. Louis from Kansas City Thursday be present at his preliminary examina- tion. & was met at the Union Station by hie father and went to the home of his brother-in-law, Nathan Forshaw, 2817 Franklin avenue. Dr. Cromwall ave he is not surprised that much is being said about his past life, now that he is In trouble. He denied positively that he had refused to permit an autopsy to @ made on his first wife DR. CORNWALL TALKS. He Leaves Kansas City Supposedly for St. Louis. KANSAS CITY, Mo., July 15.—Dr. Rich- mond Cornwall left the city last night, sup- Dosedly for St. Louis, where his prejiminary xamination for the murder of his brother, ferbert, will be held Friday. The sign on thea door of his office at Ninth and Cen.- tral reads: ‘“‘Will be back Saturday at 9 o'clock.” Cornwall said last night that he was much surprised at his arrest for murder In the first degree, but believes his vindication wil] be all the more complete. He has no idea that he will be held to the Grand-jury. The doctor is not worried over the threats made by friends of his dead brother and Says there is nothing for him to fear from that source.

STORAGE WAREHOUSES BEING RENTED BY THOSE WHO AN- TICIPATE A FAMINE. The Railroads Charged With Confis- cating Consignments and With- holding Cars. Should the miners’ strike continue very long upright pianos, folding beds and ar- ticles of vertu may make cheaper fuel than coal next winter. Operators of factories and big steam plants are already scrambling for the coal how in sight in the St. Louis market and if the demand continues as brisk aa it Is at present a scarcity and consequent ralse geems inevitable. ! While a Post-Dispatch reporter was talk- ing to a prominent local coal dealer Wednes- day Afternoon an attache of the Chemical Dullding hurried into the office. “When do we get that coal we ordered?” be sald, excitedly. “Don't press us,”’ said the dealer, in a conciliatory tone. ‘“We'll deliver it as soon as we can get hold of it... How much have you got?” “We might keep steam up for two weeks pn a pinch.” “Oh, well, you'll get coal in less than two weeks.” The caller from the Chemical building in the course of his conversation with the deal- er divulged the fact that the owners of the building have rented a large stable on Carr treet to house an extra supply of coal, hey have ordered enough to fill both their eT and the stable. at large consumers of coal are watching ‘the situation closely is shown by the fact that several large firms learned of the rent- ing of the stable by the Chemical building people and applied for space in it to store an extra supply of coal. The Gran Conder was among these firms. Though the dealers still protest they will be able to supply the wants of their custom- ere, large quantities of coal cannot be had in St. Louis on short notice. When the man from the Chemical build- ing had registered his little kick and left, the dealer on whom he called said; “There le no evading the fact that coal fe mighty scarce in St. Louis. Much of the alarm of large consumers, however, is un- founded, and the scarcity is largely due to the fact that users of coal are agitated over what they believe to be indications of a famine. 1 for one would be willing to sign a heavy bond to keep my customers supplied with enough coal to run their an Pp ts. ‘So far the strike has had only an indi- rect effect on the St. Louis market. In the Northern Ili:nols district, from which nearly ali of the coal used in 8t. Louis comes, the miners have not walked out. They are willing to work, and as many of them as can find employment are working. “The condition in St. Louis is caused not by the miners, but by the railroads, which seem to be panic-stricken over the strike outlook. Every road running into St. Louis from the Illinois mining district is obbling up coal wherever it can find it. he railroads do not buy the coal—they sim- ly oy ae it. Consignments of coal illled to St. Louls are held up on the road and side-tracked, Yesterday one road alone side-tracked 68 cars of coal on their way to St. Louis. It does no good to kick. he railroads are masters of the situation, “Their action has another serious phase. The side-tracking of carload after carload of coal shortens the roads’ equipment of cars, which in turn has the effect of di- minishing the output of coal. “Mine-owners will not operate their mines Unless they can find cars to carry their product to the markets. There is an almost unprecedented shortage of empty cars now throughout the Illinois coal district. In éonsequence men who are willing to work are employed only two or three days in a week. It does not take long for such con- ditions to breed discontent. If the shortage of cars continues it will not be long before the men in the Northern Illinois district will be out of work. Then it is natural to Suppose they will join their striking broth- ere. With no pesepect of employment they would have everything to gain and nothing to lose by dolng so. “If the mines in the Northern Illinois dis- trict cease to operate a rige in prices here will be inevitable. So far there has been no advance. fast year’s price, $1.50 a ton for coal delivered in the yards, is still in ect. In only a few special cases a little more has been charged. “Fortunately there is little or no demand for coal for domestic uses at this season of the year. This makes the condition less Micult to cope with.”’ BOUGHT IT FROM A WAITER. Judge Murphy Acquits Dr. Ogle of Stealing a Beer Stein. Dr. Oliver L. Ogle was tried in Judge Murphy’s court Thursday on a charge of stealing a beer stein at Koerner’s Garden. Ogle bought the beer and had the empty stein in his possession when arrested. He Murph; ho bought it from a waiter. Judge urphy said it was not proven that Ogle ad not bought it, and he was discharged. HE IS E. L. DUCKWORTH. Man Who Shot Himself in Forest Park Identified.

He is a brother-in-law to oO. Rexroad, who lives at Springfield, Mo. He is also a nephew of John Duckworth, and Kame Duckworth, eg near there, is his guardian. If this boy is left at the City Hospital any length of time my opin- ion is that he will not live, and he seems very anxious to go home. I think you ought to advise some person who is in- terested in him there to arrange to get him away. If it be not convenient to send some person here to accompany him, I will, upon receipt of money, se- cure his ticket and put him on the train. Of course I am not interested in this boy in the least, except by reason of the fact that I know his people and have satis- fled myself of his identity. My only pur- pose is in conjunction with you to doa umane act. When found here he had a card on his person bearing the address of one Dolan, Indianapolis, Ind. He was, therefore, registered at the hospital un- der that name, and was so known until his reason returned. brother-in-law, asserting his identity an: asking help to get the boy out of town. boy to attempt his own life.

PLACED HIS BETS EVERYWHERE IF ALL HIS MONEY GOT ON HE WON $50,000. All the Texas Sports Were Onto the Good Thing That Was to Be Un- bottled at the Fair Grounds. CHICAGO, July 15.—The local pool-rooms were all visited by Dan Stuart or his agents yesterday, and each place lost as much as $1,000 at the odde of ® to 1 by the winning of J. M. B. at St. Louis. Stuart said that he played the horse all over the country, and it was his money that eo knocked the price at St. Louis, where the race was run. “Tf =y money all got on,” the Texan is reported as saying, “I must have won §$50,- O00 or $60,000." DAN STUART BUSY. Has Signed Sharkey and Maher and Creedon and McCoy. . CARSON, Nev., July 15.—Dan Stuart writes to his Carson agent from Chicago that he has eigned Sharkey and Maher and McCoy and Creedon for the fistic car- nival in Carson this fall and has four other fights in view which he says will be cork- ers, but he mentions no names. ON A NEW SYSTEM. The Old One Proved Fallible to Officer Johnson, Johnson is the name of the policeman of the Sixth District who does duty in the west half of the grand stand at the Fair Grounds. Officer Johnson is known as the betting eepper, but he does not bet any more now. riy in life he discovered the real mean- ing of percentages, and learned that a little sure money was a great deal better than a mere chance to win big money, and all dur- ng@ this meeting at the Fair Grounds he been after sure money. henever there was a small field and a mendous favprite Officer Johnson could found playing that favorite, not to win, but to show. When Sorrow would have an easy spot and be 4 to 6 on to win he would bet 10 to 1 with the bookmaker that Sorrow would show, and by putting up $50 would peeneee to get $55 In return on the result of he race, e had a bet like this the start be- fore the last that Sorrow made. Schreiber’s every day winner did manage to fin!sh third and the policeman won his bet. It scared him bad, but Johnson failed to learn a les- @on from it. Next day Montgomery was on the card and he.looked so good that the betting cop- er went strong on him. He bet $80 to win that Montgomery would run one, two three. It was a cinch that Montgomery would be first or second, let alone “peep,” and the policeman, as soon as the horses went to the post, went to the book In which ae nea laid his bet, in order to get his money quick. Montgomery was left at the post and the blow almost killed Johnson. It takes a long time to get back $80 on Johnson's sure-thing System and eince he made his loss he is “temporarily letting the ponies alone while he is studying and figuring on a new system to beat the races. He found his last a failure. He had calculated on boys falling off and horses dropping down, but the chances of a hot favorite being left at the post he had never figured on because he did not believe tt could happen. eae STARTING IS IMPROVING. ———————— Still It Is a Long Way From Being Perfect. The starting Wednesday was a decided improvement over some of that seen re- cently at the Fair Grounds, still it was far from being perfect. In the last race, the sixth, Aliie B., strongly tipped and backed from 12 down to 38 to 1, and Biack Dan, an outsider, were practically left at the post. They got off fifty yards behind the others and were never able to make up. Allie B. showed good epeed and will bear watching. “The New Orleans custom should be adopted here,”’ declared a Southern book- maker, who spent all of last winter at the New Orleans track. ‘“‘Kit Chinn is a fair man and should be a good starter of race horses, but the trouble is he seems to have too little patience, and jis not able to wait. “In New Orleans last winter there was continuous racing for 147 days, and the tarting gave entire satisfaction to owners, ockeys, bookmakers and the race-going public alike. In every race each horse was wiven three chances to break by the start- and that was all. On the fourth he was eft at the post, and there was no dissat- sfaction ever expressed about it, for the Peason that semple notice had been given. “On the big blackboard opposite. the eg ey before every race, the names of he bad performers at the gate were posted, and the announcement was made that the horses would be given three chances to @ would then be left at the post. cv consequence was the people knew spety money was in danger, and they let 1e ad performers severely alone. ‘This rule had a wholesome effect upon the boys, and | generally managed to get @way on the third attempt.” Notes From the Tracks.

Arrest of the Broker Regarded as a Grave Mistake by Prom- inent Traders. Broker Austin E. Babcock and his at- torney, Charles M. Napton, were in Judge Peabody's court Thursday morning to an- ewer the charge of trespass for doing busi- ness in the corridors of the Merchants’ Ex- change building. Nat Moffitt and Tom Alken of the Irregu- lar Trading Committee of the Exchange, Doorkeeper James Newell and Officer 8t. John were present to testify against him. Mr. Johneon, who bailed Babcock out af- ter his arrest, was the only other member of the Exchange in court. Ashley C. Clover, attorney for the Ex- change, withdrew the charge of trespass and secured a summons against Mr. Bab- cock for a disturbance of the peace. Judge Peabody said he would hear the case Sat- urday morning at 10 o'clock. Ten minutes later Mr. Babcock was at the door of the Merchants’ Exchange holding a levee. He was in his shirt sleeves. is chubby face and bald head were wrinkled with smiles. The traders, as they passed in to the floor, stopped to congratulate “‘Bab’’ or guy him about his jail experiences. He received ex- pressions of good will from unexpected quarters, Men whom he did not know stepped up and shook his hand. “I don’t know you, Mr. Babcoek, but I don’t approve of the vey you're being treated and like your pluck,’’ was the way Capt. Pearson, one of the oldest members on. ’Change, greeted the rotund little broker. Others romised to make things pleasant for him f he went to the workhouse and there were inquiries as to how he liked bread and water for breakfast. Babcock felt ee of the reception ac- corded him. “I'll fight this case to the bit- ter end,”’ he said. ‘“‘People know now why I'm being persecuted. any who took no interest in my case before are now my par- tisans. I'll be right here a business as long as the police allow, and I'll be on the curb this afternoon.” “l have placed my case in the hands of Mr, Napton and will abide by his judg- ment regarding my future actions. I can’t say yet whether I will seek redress damages for my unwarranted arrest. We will wait until the court rules on the case pending against me.” Opinion on ‘Change is divided over the Babcock incident. embers took little in- terest in the brokers’ quarrel] until Nat Moffitt and Tom Aiken of the Irregular Trading Committee had Mr. Babcock ar- ested twice for trading on the curb ‘ednesday afternoon. All trading on the curb Is illegal. Rule 13 of the board expressly forbids it, but Messrs. Moffitt and Aiken undertook to pre- vent Mr. Babcock, whom they will not recognize as a reguiar member of the board from 4 fed in trading not recognize by the board. The dual arrest caused great excitement. The crowd was with Babcock, and when he was led away, a dozen traders followed him to the station to bail him out. His return was greeted with cheers and he had more business thrown at him than he could han- é. Thursday morning traders abandaqned the pit and stood about in groups discussing the case. Babcock’s sympathizers held that the bucketshop charge would not hold water, as there were others on the board guilty of the same offense. They didn’t believe in making fish of one and fiesh of the other. His adversaries claimed that the Ex- change had a right to say whom it would allow to trade in its building. It could ex- clude peddlers, The fact that he rented desk room, it was claimed, did not make him a tenant. The legal prosecution of Babcock will hinge on this point. Prominent operators were outspoken in their opinion of the Irregular Trading Com- mittee’s action. Sol P. Quinlivan was much incensed at the committee’s action. ‘I think it ‘s a shame the way the Board of Directors is persecut- ing Babcock,” he said. “I think he has a @00d cause of action against the Ex- change.” “Nat Moffitt does as much irregular trad- ing as any one about the building. There is not a day that he cannot be seen openly as in ‘puts’ and ‘calls.’ I think it poor taste to put that man on a committee to suppress hy: bag trading, It shows in- sincerity on the face of it.”’ Redmond Cleary said: “I th'nk the com- mitt has acted unwisely. It looks as if they had gone out of thelr way to per- secute Mr. Babcock. I think it a great mis- ta We had better suppress irregular e. trading by the members before attempti to regulate outsiders."’ ‘ed Ex-President Alexander H. Smith sgsa'‘d: “The action of the committee was entirely unwarranted. They have given Mr. Bab- ock a good cause of action against the xchange. Any person has the right to ~_ through the halis of the Exchange as ong as behaves himself. If the mem- bers wie r. Babcock to stay away, the need only to quit trading with him, and will warrant that he will not bother them long. Such actions look childish.’ v. Stanard expressed himself as be- lieving that the action of the committee was ill advised. John Warren said: “I will admit that Mr. Babcock made a mistake in the beginning by antagonizing the board, but the directors have made a bigger mistake in their perse- cution of Mr. Babcock. They have acted more like a lot of school boys than like cool. headed business men. Mr. Babcock can make them pay dearly for it." John Mullally, P. P. Connor ana numerous osere expressed themselves in like man- Messrs Moffite and Aiken say that there will be no let-up on Babcock. The Gratiot Milling Company, from whom herents desk room, will be notified that his presence in the Exchan e building is undesirable. After Mr. Babcock is disposed of they pro- pose to go after some of. the bucket-shop men on the floor. A friend of Mr. C. H. Spencer said Thurs- day that the letter of apology he sent Miss Rausch was not for the offense given out by the lady and her husband, Mr. Babcock. Spencer claimed that he had called on the young lady's father. A heavy snow storm came on while he was in the house. As she Was helping him on with his overcoat he remarked that it would be a fine night to 60 sleigh riding. Miss Rausch, he claimed, construed the remark into an invitation and when she told Mr. Babcock, whom she was shortly to marry, he became greatly incensed. POLICE MATRON BREEN.

Water Commissioner Holman Poixts Out What He Fatal Defects in the Measure Considers The Sweeney filter bill, introduced in the House of Delegates last week, will, if passed, Water Commissioner Holman be- lieves, render the city liable to lose ite wa- waterworks, The bill in its present shape is claimed to be illegal. Seo, 27 of art. 6 of the Charter speoifies how bille providing for public improvements must be introduced. It reads: “The Aesembly shall have no power, dij- rectly, to contract for any public work or improvement * * * nor to fix the price or rate therefor, but the Board of Public Im- provements shall * * * prepare and sub- mit to the Assembly estimates of costs of any proposed work, a under the direction of the ordinance shall advertise for bids, ae provided for purchases by the Commis- sioner of Supplies, and let out said work by contract to the lowest responsible bidder, subject to the approval of th® Council. Any other mode of letting out work shall be held as illegal and void," Mr. Holman says: “The Comptroller is the fiscal officer of the city. Before any con- tract can be let he must certify that there ig money in the city treasury to pay for it. This certification is based on the éstimate of the Board of Public Improvements. “Under the ordinance the Comptroller and the board are both left out entirely. It re- quires the Mayor, Health Commissioner and Water Commissioner to enter into a con- tract within ten days after the passage of the ordinance for filtering the watcr from Sept. 1, 1598, to Sept. l, 1918, by the Jewell fiiier and eleciric process, It is not to be let to the lowest bidder.

It is probable the consumption will be 100,000,000 gallons a day inside of 10 years. The city would scarcely get off at less than $15,000,000 “If the city should be unable to.make the ayments,’’ Mr. Holman says, ‘‘at least a ien in equity would be acquired on the waterworks.” To get around the charter the attorneys of the syndicate formed to get the ordinance passed will contend it is legal because they propose to perform a public service and not create a public improvement.” Bill Changed Was Not Good.

It Will Be a Year Before There Is Enough Money to Build One Cottage. MEANWHILE THE EXISTING MAKESHIFT IS A DREADFUL MENACE TO LIFE. Mayor Ziegenhein Proposes to Shake Up the Assembly and See What Can Be Done. The City Hospital commission is one year, three months and sixteen days old. It has demonstrated its conversational powers. It has learned to talk. A mass of unsightly ruins where was once a@ city hospital, not yet hidden by lichens from public view, replies in eloquent silence - ing of buildings. Said commission,” says the law, “shall make reports from time to time, to be forwarded through the Mayor to the Municipal Assembly, and when they deem necessary they shall prepare and sub- mit to the assembly ordinances embracing what legislation is needed.”’ A reporter for the Post-Dispatch called at the Health Commissioner’s office Thurs- day to ascertain how far the commission had progressed in its labors, and what it expected to do next. In the absence of Dr. Starkloff the neces- sary inquiries Were pointed at Dr. Bruere, as for instance: “When did the City Hospital Commission hold its last meeting?’ “Oh,” said the doctor, cheerily, time ago.”’ ‘some front door with an honest intention to reach a cot in. the north end: and find himself in the basement of the southwest end. That's the way to find the record office, for in- stance. Start in @nother direction and keep going. This being the condition of the institu- tion for a man in good health, what’ would become of the hundreds of sick in the event of fire? And then the overcrowding is tremendous.

A ramshackle maze, the remnants of one of God's penitentiaries, out at Seventeenth and Pine streets, takes up the chorus, and the conversation goes right on. But nobody its doing anything towards building the new City Hospital meanwhile. That's the trouble. An old inhabitant recalls that in March, 1896, one ordinance was passed by the Municipal Assembly and approved by the Mayor, “‘providing for a hospital commis- sion and prescribing the powers and duties thereof.” . . Very few persons pald any attention to the enactment at the time, as there were no salaries attached, and those who pre- sumed anything about it supposed it would be a repetition of the commission appointed somewhere in the vicinity of 1801 to build “How long, as expressed in words and figures ?’’ “Well, it would be heard to say. several meetings last year.’’ “Has it met since Mayor Ziegenhein went into office?’’ *“No, I think not.” “What's the trouble?” “Oh, nothing. It has just failed to get together on its plans and specifications. The commission has wrangled over these, adopted several, reconsidered all of them, and I believe there is now no pendiug busi- ness except that of beginning at the start.’’ “How long will it be until the city can free itself from the old Good Snepherd building and enter a hospital of its own?” “Oh, two or three yeare yet, maybe longer than that.’”’ All this was somewhat discouraging to a young citizen who supposed everything in It held anew City Hall. But the tornado of May, 1896, swept the St. Louis was done with a nop, skip and a jump. OVERCROWDED WARDS. Division x Also CROWDED, , | Division @. CRoworo QUARTERS treat, but the difference is not large. In them the patients swelter and pant for a breath of pure air. Dr. Sutter is not to blame for these things. He keeps the institution scrupulously clean and does everything in his power to make the lives of his patients bearable, The City Hospital Commission is not en- tirely to blame, provided its interpretation of the law is good. It rests with the Municipal Assembly to provide the money for the immediate build- ing of a City Hospital. The authorities are assuming a great re- sponsibility when they propose to keep the old building at Seventeenth and Pine for two or three years yet. Health Comissioner Starkloff is optimis- tic about the proposed new City Hospital, and makes excuses for the old ramshackle at Seventeenth and Pine streets. To a Post-Dispatch reporter he said: “Ever since the tornado we have been cramped for money and overcrowded in all the city institutions. There are now 600 pa- tients in the Insane Asylum, when ther? never has been over 350. The Poor-house, Work-house and City Hospital are taxed to their utmost capacity. Meanwhile the de- mands for temporary accommodations, nat- urally unusual, have absorbed every avail- able dollar. ‘The Municipal Assembly is not to blame, Tt cun do nothing with an empty treasury. It must wait until the money comes in. The Assembly has just cut off $250,000 from all the departments of the city government, in order to make both ends eet. In short, the city is tiding over the tornado losses until the September and October collections are made. “About the new City Hospital. We have nearly $100,000 on hand, but the commission does not deem it good policy to follow in the footsteps of the new City. Hall. It wants money enough in sight to finish at least the working plant and one buliding before a stroke of work is done. ‘The commission has practically agreed on the plan,»which will be what is known as the ‘sun plan’—that is, a series of build- ings so constructed as to catch the sun the longest during each day. “There will be sixteen buildings, when completed, and we estimate the cost at $1,000,000. The buildings will be two stories high, connected by a one-story corridor. The administration block is to be three sto- ries. “We will probably occupy the present City Hospital two years yet. am not bragging on its accommodations, but I EXTERIOR OF TEMPORARY CITY HOSPITAL. old City Hospital into a pile of ruins.

DENOUNCED BY THE DOCTORS. DR. MOORE RECALLS A SIRANGE CASE IN BUTCHERTOWN. Leading Physicians Severe on the New York Society for the Preserva- tion, of the Race, “Tt is an infamous proposition,’’ said Dr. W. G. Moore when asked what he thought of the plan to kill deformed and idiotic children shortly after their birth, as advo- cated by the New York Society for the Pro- tection of the Human Species. Then the doctor smiled as he read the statement that the society would strive to minimize love in the marriage relation and replace its sweet attractions with the cold facts and requirements of acience. “Sentiment,’’ he said, “stands for all the good and happiness in life, and how any organization can expect to harness and control love, that potent passion that has swayed the hearts of men and women gince the world began and made or rulned states and empires, 6 more than I can comprehend. “T observe,” said the doctor, with another emile. “that the gentleman in this case picked out a handsome woman, whether there is any sentiment in the cage or not. “If it is right to kill off the unfortunately born babies, why not do the same with your father and mother when they become old and helpless? The theory applies to them with the same force that it does to in-" fants. “One thing I want to say in regard to this matter is that any man who would bring his child to the public executioner to be killed ought to be electrocuted himself. “IT have never been confronted with a case of this kind in my practice but once. A few years ago I had as a patient the wife of a man living in Butchertown. She had borne many children, and become sick, weak and nervous. I attended her through a number of illnesses. Her husband, a butcher, came to me one day and said his wife was sick again, and he added, “Doctor, you just let her go this time.’ “Why, what do you mean’ I asked, in astonishment. “ ‘Let her go—go dead! he answered. “*What! I exclaimed; ‘Do you mean to ask me to allow your wife to die!’ “*Yes; let her go. She's no good any more.

Tobacco was heavily dealt In and more than recovered the 2 per cent dividend and aggressive strength was also evident | in the leading coalers. Rumors of probable favor- | able developments in connection with the Susque- hanna & Western were attributed to the marked | rise In the preferred shares. Sugar participated in | the advance to a fractional extent, but encoun- tered liberal realizing orders at 134% and reacied rapidly to 132 rofit-taking in Sugar and Tobacco emboldened carried values down a fraction. The grangers were bought and assumed the leadership of the rise, with Omaha unusually peau Crop advices received from various sections were uniformly fav- orable and the persistent strength of wheat was also a factor in the improvement of the grangers. The bond market sympathized with the strength in etocks and prices rose fractionally on light tran- actions. Sales of stocks to noon, 146,400 shares.

SENT FOR HER TO ITALY. The Day After Her Arrival She Be- came a Mother and the Wedding Was Temporarily Postponed. —— Joseph Grello, the handsomest and heavi- est man in the Italo-American Cavalry, was married Wednesday evening to Miss Amelia Questo, late of Saprala Croce, near Genoa, Italy. Mr. Grello’s matrimonial venture has been touched on before in the public prints. It is a romance with interesting sidelights. Years ago when a lad of 18 he married the eldest daughter of Intenseo Questo and brought her to America, After bearing him. several children she died in an insane asylum. Grello grew lonely and remember- ing that his wife had a little sister he wrote to her. She replied telling of her loneliness and adding that her parents had died and left her quite a snug little bag of ecudi, Joseph wrote again, tnclosing his photo- graph taken in the imposing regalia of the Italo-American Cavalry. He also proposed that she come to America and take care of him and her gister’s children. Before replying she went to Genoa at carnival time and hed her picture taken. Other things happened at the carnival that might not have occurred had she been prop- erly chaperoned, Anyhow, she gent Grello her picture and an acceptance of his pro- posal. Two months later Mr. Joseph Solari, a brother-in-law of Grello’s, visited Burope to see his parents. At Grello’s request he brought Amelia over. Joseph greeted his bride effusively, and was quite impressed with her looks, al- though he marveled a trifle at a tendency to embonpoint quite unusual in a girl of her age. There was great merry-making in the Solari household over the bride’s arrival. The next day Joseph went out and pur- chased a flat full of furniture and two hands full of rey When he return he was informed that his bride was ill and could not see him. He was barred from her apartments the next day, but an infant's tiny cry aroused his suspicions. He called his sister, and she told him Amelia had borne the fruits of her carnival trip. The wedding was postponed. Joseph is a forbearing young man, and he learned to overlook Amelia’s indiscretion and love her as well. The baby has been baptized, and is a lusty youngster.

J. | GOLO GALORE HUM ALASKA, —-———— MINERS HAVE REACHED sAN FRANCISCO WITH NEARLY, A MILLION DOLLARS. Tell Marvelous Stories of the Wonder- ful Discoveries Made in the Clondyke Region. THE MINES ARE BY ALL ODDS THE RICHEST IN THE WORLD, Labor Commands $15 a Day and Ten- derfeet Are Accumulating Vast Fortunes, Special to the Post-Dispatch. SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, July 15.—Forty miners from the Clondyke district, in Alas- ka, have reached this city. They are weather-beaten, ragged and look like tramps, but they have with them nearly $1,000,000 in gold dust washed from the sands of this most marvelous mining dis- trict. An average of $25,000 each was their record for a few months’ exile in the far North. Some of the miners carried their gold in buckskin bags, while the others had can- vas sacks. Some had filled fruit jars and jelly glasses with the yellow metal. The gold was coarse, ranging in size from small shot to a hazel nut. It was poured in one pile and looked like yellow corn. The total weight of the treasure was more than 320 pounds, The most lucky of the miners were Mr. and Mrs. T. 8. Lippey, who brought $60,000. Mrs. Lippey was the first woman to cross the divide from Juneau to the Yukon. The returned fortune-hunters say that at Clondyke wages are $15 a day and board, with 100 days’ work guaranteed. A letter from one of the officials of the Alaska Com- mercial Co., at Circle City, gives this ac- count of the great rush to the new diggings: “The excitement on the river is indescrib- able and the output of the new Clondyke district is almost beyond belief. Men who had nothing last fall are now worth a for- tune. One man has worked forty square feet of his claim and is going out with $40,- 000 in dust. One quarter of the claims are now — at from $15,000 to $50,000. The estimate of the district is given as thirteen square miles, with an average of $300,000 to the claim, while some are vaiued as high as $1,000,000 each. A number of claims have been purchased for large sums on a few monthg@’ credit and the amount has been paid ort of the ground before it became due, “At Dawson sacks of gold dust are thrown under the counter in the stores for safe keeping. The pecullar partof it is that most of the locations were made by men who came in last year, old-timers not having had faith in the indications until the value of the reg.on was assured, whereupon prices pa so high that they could not get in. ome of the stories are so fabulous I am afraid to repeat them for fear of being sus- pected of the infection. “There are other discoveries reported a little beyond and on the Stewart River. but these have not yet been verified. Labor is $15 a day, with board, and 100 days’ work guaranteed, so you can imagine how difficult it is to hold employes. Men who were look- ing for bits last year are now talking and showing thousands and the air is full of millions. If the reports are true it is the biggest placer discovery ever made in the world, for though oth@r diggings have been found quite as rich in spots, no such extent of dirt has been known which prospected and worked so high ‘~~ through.”’ The new Eldorado lies just across the Alaskan boundry in British Territory. It is of recent discovery, but already there are at least 3,000 people on the ground and more are flocking itn that direction. The discov- ery of the Clondyke regions presents a story that is uniquely interesting. Around Forty- ‘Mile, on the Yukon, is a tribe of Indians known as the Slickers and with them is a man who years - was known as George Cormack, but who is now called “Slick George.’’ In September last, at the head of a party of Indians, he left his hut near Forty-Mile Camp and started in a southerly direction, saying that he intended to find a new gold field before his return. He came back two weeks later and startled the min- ers with the announcement that forty miles away there was gold to be found in plenty. The stream abounded with the yellow metal and all that was needed was for somebody to pick it up. Many persons flocked to the place and in time the wotd reached Forty-Mile Camp that untold riches could be found along the bottom of Bonanza Creek and its tributaries. Men who had failed at the former camp immediately packed up their belongings and set out for the new fields. It was a hard and trying journey, but that was nothing with the promise of millions at the end of the route. CALIFORNIA ECLIPSED. Alaska Gold Mines the Most Wonder- ful in the World. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, July 15.—Those familiar with the history of gold mining declare that the gold flelds of Alaska are among the rich- est, both in quality and in extent, that have ever been known. The stories that the Span- ish explorers heard about Eldoradd were no more wonderful than those which are now coming down from Alaska, except that the Spaniards heard of gold already mined and refined, whereas the Alaska gold is not yet ot their gold; dug.

There are one or two men in New York, who know Alaska mining and Alaska mines well. One discussed mining in Alaska, after stipu- lating that his name should not be printed. “This,” he said, as he laid a lump away in a drawer again, “was picked up on the sur- face soil six years ago. Another piece as big as my fist that was picked up at the same place we have been offered $200 for. Now when there is gold like that lying about open to the air, there is just one inference to be drawn. It comes from some place. Tho man who finds the place ig rich. hy, man, ‘49 was nothing to this! Johannesburg is no such center of gold fields as in Juneau. “But there is this difference between Cal- ifornia in °49 and Alaska in '97. AlasKa ‘is all staked out. The news has not gone abroad until the people near at band, the people who have spent ener. time and their very lives in developing the country— the eople, in short, who deserved the re- ward—had eeized on everything in s ght. The product of the quartz mines of Alaska in 1897 ylelded $2,356,000. I say to you earn- estly, honestly, that is only a pin scratch. To-day I received this dispatch from a man who is going over a collection of twen- ty or more mines, all belonging to ihe com- pany in which I am interested. Changing the names of the mines, the dispatch reads OO iave just examined ~p B+ Kitten. Dog has ten-foot vein and Kitten thirty. and showing.’ Orthat staggers me, used as I am to big quantities and queer developments in Alas- ka veins. Still, there have been thirty-foot veins before, and there may be lots more of them. The beauty of it all is that these veins grow richer as you work down into them. To sum the whole thing up, I be- lieve that right in the Alaska gold de 0s ts is the mother vein of the gold of North America. But it’s too late now to go up there with the idea of making money out of the mines. Everything is gobbled up. It is no poor man’e country. A man might as well start out from Juneau, after all his kit and outfit are bought, without a cent, as without $500 or $600. ACCUSES DENNY TYNAN. Ella Hopkins Wants a Warrant for His Arrest.
