RBRabcock has three times been denied recognition as a member of the Merchants’ Exchange, though he holds a paid-up membership ticket. He has been orfered from the building three times and has been prosecuted in the Police Courts for refusing to vacate. Two cases are now pending against him, on? on an appeal from Judge Peabody, who recently fined him for disturbing the peace, and the other on a police summons served Monday, charging him with trespassing. He has engaged Charles M. Napton as at- torney, and his plan of campaign is shaping iteelf rapidly. Mr. Napton sald porter: “‘The first and least ‘mportant of mv efforta in Mr. Rabecock's behalf will be to clear him of the cnurges pending against him in the Polfce Court. The case on the police summons issued yesterday is set for Wednesday, but I shall take a change of venue from Judge Peabody. “The appealed Judge Murphy's court. them both. “I shall not stop there. I am now pre- paring to bring suit against the Merchants’ Exchange not only for persecuting Mr. Bab- cock, but on a separate action for violating the Untted States interstate commerce and anti-trust laws. “The Merchants’ Exchange, in monopo- lizing the trade in corn, wheat, bacon, lard and provisions, is clearly acting iIn_re- straint of trade and commerce and on that ground I shall ask the courts ® dissolve the Exchange. “The refusal of the Exchange to admit Mr. Babcock as a trader, though he is will- ing to comply with conditions laid down by the Exchange, is in itself evidence of a pur- pose to monopolize and restrain trade. “I have a good precedent in a decision handed down on July 19 by United States Judge Fhillips in the case of the United States vs. J. C. Anderson and the Traders’ Live Stock Exchange of Kansas City.” Mr. Napton thinks the case of the Mer- chants’ Exchange in every way analogous to that of the Kanegas City organization, and says that under the law both could be forced into permanent dissolution. He has not arranged details, and Is at present unable to say whether he will sue in the State or United States courts. Under the Sherman law if the Exchange is declared a trust each member could be prosecuted and punished by a fine nor ex- ceeding $5,000 or imprisonment for not more than one year. is set for Aug. 5 in lL expect. to win case ———— When President H. F. Langenberg of the Merchants’ Exchange was told of Attor- ney Napton'’s contemplated sult he said: “I am familiar with the case against the people at the Kansas City Stock-yards. As far as I am able to judge there is as much difference between that organization and the St. Louls Merchants’ Exchange as there is between the North Pole and the Arablan desert. We have no rule against dcvaling with outsiders who are doing a legitimate business. The greater part of the business done here is with outsiders. True, we have a rule against bucket-shops and bucket-shop traders. Far from being’ in restraint of trade our rule promotes trade by preventing fictitious quotations and illegal manipulation. If Mr. Babcock had wheat to sell I would as soon buy it from him as from any one else, “As for excluding non-members from the floor, that is our right. We have arrange- ments here to receive information which would cost any member $1,000 a year if he received it privately. Any one who wants to do a legitimate business can enjoy the rivileges of this information for $2% a year. London, The Biate was represented by Prosecuting Attorney Wallace of Ralls County and ii.

NUMBER OF HOGS WERE KILLED. GORY STAINS ON PLANKS CAUSED ALARM AMONG PASSENGERS ON EARLY TRAINS. Terminal Engine Nearly Pushed Over the Structure, Planks Torn Up and Traffic Delayed for Three Hours. There was a freight wreck on the Fads Bridge at 4:30 o’clock Tuesday morning. Terminal engine 27 was twisted out of shape and the cab forced through the side of the bridge. Three stock cars were turned over, their sides broken in, and a number of hogs were kilied. Traffic was delayed until 7 o’clock, and even after that hour, until well along into the forenoon, train service was congested. The freight was a mixed train and was heavy, all the cars being outgoing and heav- ‘ly laden. The locomotive, as is customary when gv- ing across the bridge from this side, was backing, and as it emerged from the tunnel the rear wheels left the track. The trair was not going at a high rate of speed, but there was great momentum, and as car after car followed the locomotive there was a tearing of woodwork. then a crash as the mass brought up against the At this moment the cars were pushed to one side or the force would have thrown the engine onto the Levee below. While this was happening there was a bellowing of cattle and the squealing of hogs. A wrecking crew was at once sent to the scens from East St. Louis. Energetic work cleared the main track by 7 o’clock, but the delapidated locomotive stood with its cab thrust througr the side of the bridge, and wass@@f py passengers on incoming morning trains. These passengers also saw that the plat- form was covered with blood, and alarming rumors were current to the effect that several lives had been lost. A few minutes after 7 o'clock a hose was stretched, and the gory marks that told of the crushing of hogs were removed. No one was hurt on the train. Engineer White and his fireman jumped before the locomotive reached the side wall. The planks between the rails were torn up for a distance of 300 feet. WEBER RELEASED. The State Failed to Connect Him With Dr. Berger’s Death. Special to the Post-Dispatch. KANSAS CITY, Mo., July 27.—Otto Web- er, the saloon-keeper, arrested as an ac- cessory before the fact in the murder of Dr. Berger, had a preliminary hearing this morning and was released. The State tried to establish that Weber, whose wife had died through Dr. Berger’s neglect, had ad- vised John Schlegei to kill Berger. It is charged that Berger committed a criminal assault upon Mrs. Schlegel while she was in his office. In the hearing of Schlegel the State established the killing of Berger by Schlegel, and then rested its case. TOOK POISON. Jamison, the Famous Rider of War Days, tempts Suicide. Gen.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark., July 27.—Authentic | information of the lynching of one horse- thief and the prodbable fatal shooting of another by a mob of citizens at a point near the Scott and Yell county line reached here this morning. Zoth the vic- tims were white men, and the mob was composed of citizens of Saline County. Two valuable horses were stolen from farmers of Saline County one day last week. Suspicion pointed to two strangers named Crownover and Beach A posse was formed which pursued the thieves two or three days, finally coming upon them asleep in an ope@® field with the stolen ani- mals in their possession.

What Joy, Bartholdt and Pearce Ex- pect in Spoils If Kerens Is Turned Down, Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, D. C., July 27.—The op- posing factions of the Missour! Republi- cans made another visit to the White House to-day. Congressmen Joy, Bartholdt and Pearce believe that they have a chance to turn down National Committeeman R. C. Kerens and they are making every effort to do so. Immediately upon the return of the Pres. ident from his summer vacation, he will have to take the question of appointments for St. Louls. The office of Appra‘ger of the Port and others will then be ready to be acted on. On all these places the three Con- gressmen will act in concert. They have apparently agreed upon an offensive and defensive alliance for the purpose of down- ing Kerens. If the congressional compact ts carried out Congressman Joy will name John Walk. enhorst for apocateees. Mr. Pearce will have one good place, and through Mesars. Bartholdt and Joy the “old man” will have the naming of the postmaster at St. Louls. This, the richest plum of all, is the bone of contention, It does not become vacant for months, but the pins are being set up now, If, through this congressional agreement Mr. Filley could secure this plum over Ker- ens, he could well afford to let Mr. Pearce come back to Congress, and that ts Mr. Pearce is looking after now. The three Republican Congressmen fram Missouri, Joy, Pearce and Bartholdt, have tried to shake Col. Kerens, but he wouldn’e be “shook."" Sunday the Con.- resemen got together and agreed to ask for ve consulates for Missour|. Three of the candidates selected for recommendation by the Representatives were Mr. Musick of North Missour!; Dr. Hugo M. Starkloff of St. Louis, and Mr. Henry of Kansas City.

PROBABLY FATALLY BURNED. HIS SHIRT TORN OPEN AND THE FIERY LIQUID THROWN ON THE FLESH. - a at He Is Delirious and No One at the Dis- pensary oor Hospital Can Learn Where the Crime Was Committed. Will'am Arnold, a fireman at the chemical ‘works of Herf & Frerichs, at the foot of Neosho street, was taken to the City Dis- pensary Tuesday suffering from a carbolic acid scalding. The flesh on hie breast and stomach is burned to a crisp, and the agony of the man is moat intense. ° A singular fact is Arnold does not know how he came to be so severely burned. He only knows that it was done some time Monday night, but where, or by whom, he perhaps will never know. The explanation for this ts Arnold has been on a spree for a week, and can’t re- member where he has been. His boarding place is at Mrs. Steinberg’s, 1330 Merchant street. He took his meals there, but usual- ly elept in the Salvage Corps’ house at 1310 Merchant street. He had rot been around there for four or five days until this morning, when he staggered in the door, crying with pain, and begged that a doctor be sent for. Arnold's shirt front was open, and it wag seen that his breast was biistered. He wage too.drunk to give any aecount of himself, so a patrol wagon was called and he was hurried to the Dispensary. His delirium from drink and suffering from the raw carbolic acid rendered his condition most pitiable. It took three men to hold Arnold on the operating table while Dr. Newcomb exam- ined his injuries. The examination showed that so one had opened Arnold's shirt and pou four or five ounces of carbolic acid on his breast, and that from his neck to his waist the flesh had been.burned until it hung in shreds. . Dr. Newcomb gave the burns a temporary dressing and sent Arnold to the City Hos- pital. The flesh will have to grow anew if Ar- nold survives his double assault of liquor and the gnawing corrosive. Capt. John Glenver of the Salvage Corps says: | “IT was in the alley washing a buggy this morning when Arnold came along. He had not been here for a week and I noticed he was drinking, for he tottered as he walked, When he reached me I observed the carbolic acid, saw he was in bad shape from some cause and turned him over to Patrolman Sheehan, who| was near at the time. “Arnold coulda give no account of himself, and none of the boys here know anything about the A” Several of the Salvage Corps said Arnold is a highly cated man, an entertaining talker and well hked. It is the theory of some of his friends that he tried to commit suicide. He was on a spree, could) not stop drinking, and, be- ing familiar with carbole acid, he made & purchase of that drug. At his bogrding-house, 1330 Merchant street, his landlady says Arnold had not been there fot more than a week. Down at thd chemical works, at the foot of Neosho etrect, his employers said Ar- nold had worked there as a boxmaker, but nothing had been seen of him for ten days, They knew nagthing of the accident.

When St. Louis was smaller than it now is, with an element of uncertainty in ite future, there was some force in the plea for a large margin of profit in street railway franchises on account of the risk of losses and of slow returns. But the time for such pleas is past. There is more certain investment than street railway property. A well lo- cated railway assured of big cash business at once and of constantly increasing A good franchise may at once be turned into money, and every year will Increase its value. * The initial value of a franchise granted by the Municipal Assembly may be ac- eurately determined before the grant. It has a definite market value expressed in eash or bonds and it has in addition a value dependent upon future business. The Post-Dispatch has shown that the actual value of the Gridiron franchise Is nearly $4,000,000. This is the sum that may be realized on it above all invest- ment returns. What its potential value may be cannot accurately be determined. Dut it is certain of constantly increasing profits. When the Counell recall the franchise bill and make its passage legal, it proposes the deliberate confirma- tion of the hasty robbery of the city of nearly $4.000.000 and the gift of that sum to pravate individuals. The deed of loot will be calmly and knowingly committed, and every city official connected with the act will share in the crime. —— -~- >. -—— ——_—_——_ no street is business, etock, and potential Proposes to Does Gov.

There is no doubt that the condensa- tion of the sun's rays would supply heat ‘ enough to run the steam engines of the world, but until a way can be found to abolish clouds and to guarantee that there will be sunshine every day in the year we shall still have to growl over coal combines and miners’ troubles. A street car line run by sun power would be a nuisance in the rainy season, and a sun-power factory would lose more money on rainy days than it could make on bright days.

A Milwauk paper calis attention to the fact that while public sentiment in Wisconsin is aroused to fervid heat at the fogging of boys in the State Reform Behool, the fogging of boys tn the public schools goes on without interruption or protest. If Wiecensin has not yet outgrown that period of civilization which tolerates pro- miscuous and persistent fNogging in pub- le schools, so much the worse for Wis- consin. We think it may be truthfully | sata of but few States that this relic of barbariem, the teacher's goad, still occupies prominent place in their edu- cational systems. Nor is the whip more needed in the State Reform Schools. In no institution should degrading brutality be resorted to as a corrective. It is particularly ob- jectionable in a reform school where the inmates are of such tender age 4s to justify strong hopes of their reclamation. Men incapable of managing children without the use of the lash should not be tolerated in any institution for the education or reformation of youth. —_ na The automobile tariff torpedo, just fin- ished by Congress and the President, will tear a hole in every merchantman, ccna eeenalea eal BICYCLE DANGEBS. The Sunday Post-Dispatch thoroughly exposed the dangers of bicycle scorching on the city streets and of riding at night without lamps. Being more nolseless than any vehicle there is more occasion for care in the riding of the bicycle than in driving horses. Experienced riders recognize the value of lamps and the folly of scorching. The wise do not need regu- lation, but the foolish endanger them- selves and others if they are not re- strained. Complaints are numerous On streets, where the smooth surface tempts to reckless riding. On McPherson avenue | the peonvle say it is dangerous to cross the street on account of the reckless seorching. Accidents are numerous and nearly always the person on the wheel is hurt. Collisions because of the failure to have lamps and signal bells are fre- quent. It is as a friend of the wheelmen that the Post-Dispatch directs attention to the need of reasonable regulation. —__-oo—-9 —-—-—-—— If Mr. James E.

But so full has his life been of works of public spirit and charity, that it may be said of him that his business was his avocation and philanthropy his vocation. Not only his purse, but his energies were freely given to public and philanthropic enterprises, and few char- itable or educational institutions in this citv have lacked the aid of his wise coun- sel, his ready hand and his open purse. And his public works were the least of his benefactions.

Barrett, the pretty bookkeeper of Codman & Codman, estate brokers, who was supposed to have been killed by lightning on Saturday, is evidence that she either committed suicide or was murdered. The police believe that the young woman killed herself and that she was an embegzier. When the books and papers in the safe were overhauled by the members of the firm it was discovered MISS ALICE M. BARRETT. that the cash book was missing. A search of the burned rubbish from the fire, which had been thrown from a window into the yard at the rear, revealed a few charred leaves of the missing book. It was at first thought that the book and papers had been set on fire by light- ning. he police theory now is that Miss Barrett started a fire of papers which she wished to destroy in the wash room, and put the cash book on top. Then she locked the wash room door, and, standing in the main office opposite the safe, shot herself through the heart just as a tremendous crash of thunder destroyed the sound of the pistol shot. the Bilby street real | POLBY ABUSED WOMEN - — — Virginia Avenue Disturbed by a Zine Worker Disciplining His Wife and Her Sister.

Several women in the crowd that had gathered around the house demanded of the men that they break tn the door and sup- press Foley, but they dared not do it. Willie Bergman, a boy wno lives near by, hurried to a telephone and called the police. Patrolmen Murphy and Whalen responded. Foley opened the door tn response to ther demand. The crowd asked the officers to arrest Foley, but Foley knew Murphy and assured him that it was nothing more than a little family quarrel and that his sister- in-law became hysterical and alarmed the neighborhood. Despite the fact that a half dozen persons told the officers-of Foley's violent conduct, they refused to arrest him. CUBANS WILL WIN.

The firemen found the door of the office of Codman & Codman locked, and were obliged to break it open. They found Miss Barrett's body on the floor’ and thought she had been killed by lightning.

Missouri, Illinois, Arkansas and Other Western States to Be Flooded With Circulars Designed to o Catch the Unwary. Special to the Post-Dispatch NEW YORK, July 27.—Swindling schemes holding out promises of great fortunes to be made in the Kiondike region may be ex- pected. The fever is here and ts affecting all classes. Besides attracting adventurous men, young and old, to the far-away Alas- kan gold fields, it is inviting the attention of those who organize mining companies. In a day or two Missouri, Illinois and Ar- kansas will be flooded with circulars. If the craze continues, New York may become quite as much of a center for wild-cat Klon- dike companies as London was the center of South African gold mining schemes. Ad- vertisements for prospective voyagers, in- viting them to join co-operative companies, are numerous. Some are honorable and oth- ers are not. J.

The result of a later that Mr. Muller is not unknown ‘to the po- lice authorities of New York, The records of the District Attorney's office show that John C. Muller, otherwise known as John Golding, was indicted on March 16, 189, on the charge of perjury, and that while he was not tried, having been discharged on his own recognizance, the indictment can be placed on the calendar whenever the Dis- trict Attorney sees proper to do so, and Muller be forced to stand trial.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, D. C., July 271.—A some- What sensational cast was given the Alaskan gold situation to-day by the dils- cussion of plans to send a regiment of United States infantry to a station to be established on the Yukon River. The War Department officials protest that there is no menace in the determinat ‘on to send reg- ular troops to the neighborhood of Kion- dike, and they inaist that the appearance of infantry in that locality will mot be an indorsement of the claim that this country has any hold on the Kliond_ke fie!ds. The information, which has come from Alaska within the last week or two in- dicates that some protection must be pro- vided the law-abiding citizers who are likeiy to spend the coming winter along the Yukon, The troops will act as police, much after the fashion of the well-discip) ned and finely equipped mounted police of Canada. it is not expected by the Washington au- horities that there willl be a clash of fore es on the border or that our troops will be called upon for any service growing out of an international misuoderstanding. The War Department officials are greatly exercised over the cost of the undertaking. It wlll take a great deal of money to trans- apr a regiment to any part of Alaska, specially to the proposed point on Yukon R ver, distant, it is said, some 200 miles from the Klondike region, Then, too, the matter of provisioning such a large body of troops is a serious question, all the more €o as the soldiers must be equipped with sub- sistence supplies to last nearly a year. The great quest ion which confronts the aut! ties is the method to be adopted to disc nolaee desertion. It is anticipated that the soldiers, situated in the midst of such a’ alluring prospect, will not be willing to stick to camp life. me of the army of- ficers. recalling the exper ence of '49 in Cal- ifornia, say that the troops in that section ar serted. in hosts and one regiment was anon de plet ed one-half by devertions of men who wished to get into the mines. A LUCKY , MISSOURIAN. B. F. Purcell Returns From Alaska With a Fortune. Special to the Post-Dispatch. HIGH HILL Mo., July 7.—B. F. Pur- cell of this place arrived here this morning from Alaska, where he had gone in April, 1896, to seek his fortune. He says fortune seemed to smile on him from the day he left here until his return. His family was anxiously awaiting his ee for some days. He has improved his P ysical con- dition and looke much better than he did on his departure, notw'thstanding the severe climate and country, and the terrible suf- fering and privations he endured, but says that Alaska is a poor man’s country, and that he will go back in the spring, to work his half claim, the other half of which he sold for $21,000. When he does return he will not go alone, for there are some ten or twelve here making preparations to go with him tn the spring. Some three or four will probably start in a few weeks. He will not state the amount of wealth he was go he has a fortunate to acquire, but says comfortable sum. A CHICAGO PARTY. An Effort to Beat the Time Record to the Klondike. CHICAGO, July 27.—A party of men who wish to try the Klond'ke gold cure will ‘eave Chicago on a special train next Saturday night en route for the newly dis- covered Alaskan gold fields. There will be 1 -ndividuale in the party. The oe train on which the party will travel will run directly through to San Francisco. There the gold hunters will remain three days to purchase mining supplies. The party will then ship for St. Michaels on a special steamer. The trip will occupy four- teen days, Three steam launches will be in wa'ting to traneport them up the Yukon to the mouth of the Klondike River. This trip will require fourteen days. Each tourist may take 300 pounds of baggage from 5an Francisco, but only a portion of this will be taken up the river with the party. It is the intention of the promoters of the excur- sion to make the shortest journey on record to the gold fields. An effort will be made to ‘complete the trip from Chicago to the Klondike within thirty days. —_——_ QUARTZ DISCOVERED. —_—_—— —-_— —— Valuable Rock Said to Have Been Found on Stewart River. SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., July 27.—The lat- est rumor from Alaska is of the discovery of wonderfully rich quartz on the Stewart River. Particulars are vague, and beyond the fact that the ledge is a large one an! that the rock assays $300, nothing can be learned, This, if true, will mean much for the Klondike district. The Stewart River runs into the Yukon not far above Dawson, and it is reasonable to suppose that the placer gold now being found below may have its origin in the mountains at the head of the Stewart and neighboring rivers and creeks. This is the first record of quartz in the Alaskan country. Heretofore only placer gold has been found. = RECRUITS NOT WANTED. Marshall McDonald Says His Kiondike Party Is Made Up. Attorney Marshall F. McDonald's project- ed expedition to the Klondike Is rapidly taking shape, as a result of the publication in Sunday's Post-Dispatch. He is being be- sieged by callers Who are anxious to join his party. To all of them he says that re- crults are not wanted, as the party is al- ready made up. “IT have learned,” said Mr. McDonald, “that the people with gold fever come from nll classes.

The controversy arises over the contract for construction of the conduit as originally granted to the Edison and the other five companies it now speaks for. The Imperial was formed later and must occupy space in that same conduit. The Imperial contends it is getting the worst of it under the con- tract for construction and that the opposi- tion proposes to make them pay more than their share for work in which they have no controlling voice Supt. Kroell of ‘the Citizens’ Electric Com- pany, which stands alone, also registered an objection against the “tyranny,” as Judge Priest styled it, of the Edison people. The matter was referred to the Lighting Committee of the Board of Public Improve- ment to draw up plans for the joint con- struction of the conduit on Broadway be- tween Wash and Spruce; the cost of the conduit to be paid by the several compan- fes in proportion to the number of ducts be- long. ng to each. After these plans have been approved by the Board an order will be issued that the work proceed, and if any of the companies refuse to comply with the order they will forfeit their rights to conduit space under the Keyes ordinance and will have to appeal to the courts [f they desire to build conduits on other Plans.

osiedienneee ee ee TUESDAY—ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH—JULY 27, 1897, BOY BRUTALLY USED. —— HE IS AUGUST ELLERMANN’S WIFE’S SON, THE NEIGHBORS COMPLAINED. HUMANE SOCIETY HAS WARNED THE BOY’S PARENTS. Charged That Several Grown Persons Beat a Twelve-Year-Old Lad Unmercifully. Cc. 8. Dabney, agent for the Woman's Hu- mane Society of Missour!, has notified Au- gust Fllermann of 2748 Clark avenue that if he does not cease his attacks upon his 12- year-old stepson a warrant will be asked for. Mr. Dabney cons!ders the case one of the most atrocious that has been called to the attention of the society, but as the boy has a good home—should the cruelty cease, and the parents promise to act differently—he has decided to take no action for the pres- ent. August Ellermann is proprietor of a dairy on Clark avenue near the corner of Leffing- well avenue. Willie, the boy in question, is a son of Mrs. Ellermann by a former hus- band. With the Ellermanns live John Feltman and his wife, father and mother of Mrs. E)lermann. A reporter for the Post-Dispatch visited the neighborhood Tuesday. In the two gro- cery stores and the saloon were found sev- eral persons who denounced Ellerman’s con- duct as outrageous. They had heard yells coming from the rear of the dairy, but had geen no act of violence, and the reporter was referred to Mrs. Fannie Nelson, who lives upstairs at 2748 Clark avenue, imme- diately above the Ellermanns. Mrs. Nelson is a black-eyed, energetic lit- tie woman. “Yeos,’’ she sald, “I know all about it, for zeae the complaint to the Humane So- clety. “The treatment of the boy Willle, who, I understand, is but 12 years of age, is out- rageous. In the first place he has to get up every morning at 2 o'clock and go out witha milk wagon. Hereturns at 7 and has to start out again at’. He returns at noon and all the afternoon has to work about the store. All the sleep he is allowed is from after dark until 2 o'clock in the morning. “For a month he was whipped nearly every day, and so far as I could learn his sole offense was that he wanted to play with other boys. All the members of the family took a hand in beating him, step- father, mother and grandfather. "The cries that came from the rear of the dairy were pitiful. For 2 time they only whipped him in the house, but gradually they grew bolder and a few nights ago I saw aA most brutal scene enacted on the back porch. “Willie had been pushed out there by his stepfather and the ttle boy, who was clad only in his undershirt, was being beaten with a heavy stick. He screamed at the top of his voice. I called out to Ellermann ‘Shame! Shame!’ “This seemed to anger him the more, and he beat the boy on the back and legs until the blood came. When the whipping ceased I went over to the spot and saw the blood on the planks. “The next day I asked persons near here whom I could complain to, and was referred to Mrs. T. G. Comstock, president of the Woman's Humane Society. I was unable to find her that afternoon, and In the evening I told Ellermann he had better stop or he would get himself in trouble. “*He is my boy, and I can do with him as I like. 1] can kill him if I want to,’ was his ~g ‘so mind your own busine&s.’ “But had decided to push the matter, and what I saw that evening only made my determination stronger. “This time it was Mrs. Ellerman who was beating the toy. She used a board, and blood was streaming from the lad's ear. It fFeemed to me as if the ear was nearly torn off, and the wound looked as if it had beon chewed by a dog. “Willie ran screaming to the home of Mrs. Lanahan, next door, and she took care of him for that night and dressed his wounds. “The next morning I found the agent of the Humane Society and he investigated and warned the stepfather and mother. He Also asked all the neighbors to report any instance of brutality.’ Mre. Annie Lanahan, to whom Mra. Nel.- eon referred, lives in the rear of 2760 Clark avenue. She corroborated the story told by her neighbor. “Yes,"’ said she, “I took care of Willie one night. He ran to me and begged for pro- tection, and his mother was follow'ng with an uplifted board. I drew the little boy in and slammed the door in her face. “The lad's ear was badly torn and blood Wat eatreaming from it. “I did not see the beating on the porch by the father, but I heard the shrieks, ndeed, shrieks have been coming from the ouse for the last month. I was never in court in my life, and don’t care to meddle with my ne‘ghbors’ affairs, but I would like to testify against theee people.’’ Ellerman was out on one of his wagons Tuesday morning and so was Willie. Mrs. Ellerman, a stout German woman told the reporter that she didn’t understand at it was anybody's business what she id with her son. “Did you hit him with a board?” was ed. “No,” she eald, “I used a stick. think it hurt much.” “Who else whips him?’ “Oh, his grandfather beats times, but he deserves it.’’ FOR THE THIRD BRIDGE.

One hundred of the 10 men who walked out of the Niedringhaus Rolling Mill, at Sec- ond and Destrehan streets, three weeks ago, have returned to work. The fifty others have headquarters in Hoff’s Hall at 3419 North Fourteenth street. Many of them sleep and eat there, and they hold daily meetings. Although the strike occurred three weeks ago, this is the first notification outsiders will have that there has been any trouble between the Neidringhaus company and the men. The strikers are members of the Amalga- mated Association of Steel and Iron Work- ers, and those who are yet out are being helped by that organization. ti. WENT BACK TO WORK ONE HUNDRED NIEDRINGHAUS TEMPTED BY HALF A PROMISE. THE GRIM DESTROYER, FROM A HIGH WINDOW. Now at the City Hospital, Where He Will Have a Bullet Removed From His Brain. Reclining indolently upon a cot, smoking a cigarette in the observation ward of the City Hospital is William F. Rapley, for the fourth time in his eventful existence of 29 years, giving grim death the laugh. Rapley’s case is peculiar every way one looks at it. Few men can survive all he has undergone and live to laugh at his exper!i- ences. More intelligent than one-half the folks met with in the ordinary course of a day, apparently the possessor of a hopeful tem- perament, light-hearted and even jocular, Rapley’s mind seems to run away from his tastes toward a tragic channel. He has faced death and come off victor four times. Once the matter was not cf his volition. That was when he had spinal HARD MAN 10 KILL. WILLIAM F. RAPLEY LAUGHS AT FACED DEATH FOUR TIMES.

Dr. Marks is not contr discouraged, but he had other things to think about besides a man to whom a matter like a@ bullet in his brain was a trifle, and in desperation he discharged Rapley with the pistol ball in his head, and it has been there ever since. Two years after this obstinate refusal to die, under circumstances that almost any other man would have succumbed to lon before, Rapley got himself crushed, twiste: and mangied under the wheels of a caf- riage.

If he cannot suPDiy y to) three times, the police and hospital records show Rapley courted death and was re- jected so hard he has to laugh at himself. Rapley’s last attempt upon his own life was Monday afternoon. In a fit of tempor- ary insanity he threw himself from a third- pel window of his boarding house at 2914 Laciede avenue. He struck on a shed at the first story and lay atill until the police rescued him. At the hospital they looked him over care- fully, and the most serious injury the unit- ed efforts of the doctors and surgeons could discover was a slightly sprained back. In two or three days Rapley will not feel the effects of his trouble, and unless an opera- tion Dr. Sutter is planning to remove a pistol ball from the fellow's brain should be the means of restoring Rapley’s mind to its normal condition, Rapley will be free to go on trying to make himself a corpse until he eucceeds. That is, granting the pistol bullet which has remained imbedded in the brain over the right eye for four years has had anything to do with derang- ing his reason and aggravating what seems a suicidal mania, The bullet was fired into his skull by his own hand. Dr. Heine Marke was Superin- tendent of the City Hospital then, and when Rapley was carted in, with the blood flow- ing from a hole in his right temple, Dr. Marks was s0 sure the man would die he gave directions for the disposal of the body at the same time he ordered the patient to the operating room. The position of the bullet was considered necessarily fatak Dr. Marks and his as- sistant decided at first that it was useless to probe for the ball, as the man could nut recover, even if the bullet were discovered Next morning the report that Rapley was not rome | alive but improving startled the hospital staff. The surgeons lost no time in probing for the ball, but they couldn't touch it, All this time Rapley was smiling ane oe upon the efforts of the sur- geons to churn u s hunk of lead. p brains and extract the second and third attempt wa but they were no more successful than at first. By the time the third attempt was A lst Tried Friends Best. Forthirty years Tutt’s Pills have proven a blessing tothe invalid. Are truly the sick man’s friend.

The surgeons eyed him skittishly as they pulled out his legs and straightened his arms and thumped him to see if his interior de- partment was still intact. It being Rapley, everything was just like it should be, bar- ring a b.uise here and there and patches of skin scraped away from various por- tions of-his person. Rapley spent a month resting his shaken- up carcass on a hospital cot and then etart- ed out into the uncertain world again. He obtained work in the Street Department and nothing more was heard of him until he rung himself in on the hospital again Monday, this time a little more smiling and serene than before. In the face of the testimony of the wit- nesses to Rapley’s three attempts at self destruction, Rapley declares with a counte- nance that would be funereal if he could prevent a faint flickering of the lips and & suspicion of merriment in his eyes, that he is simply playing in hard luck and that his mishaps have been accidents. “I shot myself one night at Fifteenth and Pine streets,” he sald, “but unfortunately the only fellow by whom I could prove the shooting was accidental died two years ago. We had been out in a crowd drinking and one of the boys had a gun. He began to flourish it around pecmnonetey and I Passes it to keep him from hurting any- ody. “He resisted and we ecuffled. In the ee the gun went off and I got the bul- et.’’ “How about throwing yourself under the Wheels of a carriage?’ “That's not so. I had been drinking again, and was driving in a buggy with a friend. We made a circus turn at Twenty- second and Chestnut streets and I fell out. You might know if an accident ie going to happen anywhere I'd be in it. I’m surprised at myself to think a church didn’t fall on me during the cyclone.”’ “But you jumped from your boarding- house windows, didn’t you? And didn’t you call attention to it as you jumped?’ “‘No, sir. A fellow’s liable to take a drink too much, isn’t he? Well, that’s what I did. I fell out. Three drinks of booze will paralyze me, anyhow.” Rapley groaned and smiled as he turned over on his back. Then he said: “You're a newspaper man, of course. Please don’t roast me. I've been roasted enough. It hurts a fellow in getting a job if there’s a suicide yarn clinging to him. To get work when any such story is told on you, you have to get off the earth and change your name.” “That's what you tried to do, isn’t it?’ “Oh, no! My real name is Johnson.

STRUCK HIM WITH A BALL BAT. SAM DAVIDSON’S ARM BROKEN AND HIS HEAD INJURED. Cross-Warrants Applied For by Both Sides to the Encounter. Fierce With his right arm in a sling and a lump as big as an egg behind his right ear, Sam Davidson of 1914 North Seventh street called at the Four Corts Tuesday to swear out & warrant against the city’s dog catching crew. His injuries were the result of an en- counter Monday with the quartette from the dog pound. According to his story, he was sitting in his doorway enjoying a pipe and the com- panionship of a little brown pup. The dog was a half water spaniel and half anything else, but the darkey loved it as only an old bachelor can. The two were so inseparable that Davidson’s neighbors called it his wife. Davidson was telling it his troubles when the dog catcher’s wagon stopped at the mouth of the alley. Theodore Roderman,the foreman of the crew, sprang from the wag- on, and before the old man realized what had happened the wire noose was around his dog’s neck and it was dragged towards the wagon. Davidson is probably 50 years of age, and is bent and frail. He got desperate, though when he saw his dog being choked, an dragged away from him. He threw himself on the burly dog catcher and released the dog. Andy Betzold, another dog catcher, dealt Davidson a blow behind the ear that stag- gered him. The dog, instead of scampering for liberty, stuck to his master and was wired again. Despite the blow on the Head, Davidson again closed with Roderman. Then Nick Abel, the driver of,the wagon, picked up a base ball bat that is carried for offensive and defensive purposes and brought it down across the hand that held the wire noose and prevented the dog’s being swung into the wagon, “Hit him good and hard,” cried Roder- man, and Abel swung the club and brought it down with full force across Davidson's right fore arm. The 6mall bones were shattered by the blow. Davidson's arm fell limp to his side and he staggered back against a wall almost fainting from the excruciating pain. His dog was flung in the wagon and the dog catchers drove away.

When he Saw that the negro was determined to prose- cute them for their brutality he went to Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Johnson and asked for a warrant against Davidson. Da- vidson followed him to the warrant office and said he was prepared to swear out a warrant for assault against the men who had injured him. Mr. Johnson told the negro to bring wit- nesses, The pound keeper was told to bring in the dog catchers to swear to the informa- tion if he wished to prosecute. Under compulsion PoundkKeeper’ Bartel! finally admitted that the men on the wagon were Bob Johnson, Theodore Roderman, Andy Betzold and Nick Abel. He said that Abel at Roderman’s request had struck the negro first across the hand and then across the forearm to make him let go of the fare- man, whom he was holding between the wheels of the wagon. He denied knowing that Davidson had been struck back of the head. He said Johnson was suffering from a gunshot wound and did not leave the wagon. He admitted giving the men Instructions to use the base ball bat when interfered with in their occupation. Prosecutor Johnson says he will hear both sides and take the matter under advise- ment before issuing a warrant. TO BE TRIED BY A JURY. Judge Murphy Causes Surprise by Ac- tion in Mrs. Brown’s Case, Contrary to general expectation, the case of Mrs. Mary E. Brown, charged with petit larceny, was not resumed Tuesday In the Court of Criminal Correction. Instead, it was laid over until next Tuesday, Aug. 3, at noon, at which time it will be tried before a jury. The case was on Judge Murphy’s docket Tuesday, having been continued since last Thursday, when all the testimony was heard, to allow the prosecution an oppor- tunity to file an amended information. The original information was faulty in that it did not specify that the property alleged to have been stolen belonged to Stix, Baer & Fuller, proprietors of the Grand-Leader. When the case was reached on Tuesday's docket Attorneys John I. Martin and C. Orrick Bishop, representing the prosecution and defense, respectively, were on hand. Judge Murphy caused some surprise by A that he would order the case retried before a jury. He vouchsafed no lexplanation for this determination, and as ‘the suggestion was perfectly satisfactory ‘to both attorneys, the case was continued until Aug. 3, and a jury ordered impaneled for that date. | Mrs. Brown lives at 2619 Gamble street. ‘She was arrested two weeks ago in the \Grand-Leader on a charge of shoplifting, ‘the specific charge being the theft of a veil valued at W cents.

Dr. Newcomb set the bones in his arm and put the injured member in a sling. The doctor thought the blow back of the ear was administered with a silungshot. Poundmaster John Bartell, who is a dep- uty under City Marshal Reinstadler, when seen by Davidson and a Post-Dispatch re- porter, refused to identify the men who par- ticipated in the assault.
