JUDGE MURPHY ASSISTED IN SEPARATING THE BEL- LIGERFNTS. APOLOGIES TO THE COURT. —_—_— Judge Talty Was Presiding and He Accepted the Peace Offering— Trouble Started Over the Attitude of a Witness. Maj. Edward Cunningham and Judge Given Campbell, two of the most dignified and respectable lawyers practicing at the St. Louis bar, had a good, old-fashioned fight in Judge Talty’s court-room Wednesday morning. Judge David Murphy of the Court of Criminal Correction, who is associated witn Judge Campbell in the case on trial, par- - years. ticipated in the fight to the extent of assist- ing Deputy Sheriff Becker to separate the combatants and restore order. The case on trial is an old one. It has been in the courts off and on for some It is a suit of Capt. Peter Conrad, an old school river. veteran, against Louis De Montcourt of Cairo, Ill, and other parts of the Mississippi River. The suit is what is called an admiralty case, involving the salvage of a barge and some timber and a lot of other nautical and technical facts, - Capt. Conrad is trying to recover from De Montcourt what he claims is due him for the salvage of lumber, Among the witnesses was a Capt. Portee, also an old river man. Capt. Portee, in previous trials, was a w.tness for Capt. Conrad. In the present trial he was a wit- ness for De Montcourt. Judge Campbell, prompted and assisted by Judge Dav:d Murphy, subjected Capt. Por- tee to a most severe cross-exam.nation., Maj. Cunningham repeatedly objected to Judge Campbell's questions. Sometimes his objections were sustained and sometimes they were not. After a long course of cross- examination Capt. Portee was excused from further examination. As he left the stand Maj Cunningham said he thought it was Shameful to treat a witness so. Judge Campbell took occasion to differ with him, in a quiet and proper way. Maj. Cunningham insisted it was and Judge Campbell insisted it was not. After & moment’s controversy Judge Campbell said something whick Maj. Cunningham evidently took to be a serious reflection on his veracity. At any rate he struck at Judge Campbell and tried to knock him down. Then the two attorneys, ne'ther of whom could be termed young men, went at each Other like a couple of school boys. Maj. Cunningham's spectacies flew off and the mix-up promised to be a lively one. Deputy Sheriff Becker, Judge Murphy and some of the jurymen in the front seats hastened to Separate the two attorneys. They were both considerably mussed wu . . A Pp, Major Cunningham having a contusion un- der his left eye and Judge Campbell a badly rumpled shirt collar.

QUEER THINGS HAPPEN TO HIM — Edward Penno Now Has a Fractured Pelvis. HIS BROKEN NECK MENDED. HE WILL HAVE TO SPEND SEVER- AL MONTHS IN THE CITY HOSPITAL, TRIPPED BY A WIRE FENCE. The Teamster Who Recovered After Breaking Three of His Vertebrae Returns to Dr. Sutter’s Care for Another Operation. As Edward Penno completely recovered after having his neck broken, he does not worry much about his broken pelvis, which is his reason now for being in the City Hospital. Penno is a teamster and lives at 2206 Col- lege avenue. He is 46 years old and has a wife and five children. He is a stolid German and views his misfortunes stoic- ally. A few nights ago he was walking in the stable lot at the rear of his home. It was dark. Some children had been playing in the yard. They had taken two iron bars about eighteen inches high and driven them in the ground ten feet apart. Three pieces of wire were fastened to them and a fence more than a foot high was made. Penno heard a noise in the stable and he ran out to see about the disturbance. He was running rapidly when his foot caught and he was thrown violently to the ground. He alighted on a stone and when the doc- cors examined him it was found his pelvis was fractured. Dr. Sutter says the injury is serious and it will confine Penno to his bed for several months. Penno had his neck broken Nov. 27, 18%. He was driving a heavy load of coal south on Grand avenue, near the Water Tower. He was on the street car track and when the warning gong sounded he attempted to turn out. The wheels did not leave the track promptly and he applied the whip. The horses gave a sudden lurch and Penno was thrown from his lofty seat to the street car track. | He alighted on his back squarely across one of the rails. The back of his head struck the paved ground and he was rendered un- conscious. He was picked up and carried to his home. A physician was @ailed and it was found that Penno was completely par- alvzed. He could move neither hand nor foot. He regained his senses after awhile and said he could feel no pain. His skull was not fractured, and the doctor con- cluded that Penno’s spine was injured and recommended that he be sent to the City Hospital. Dr, Sutter made a thorough examination and found that the patient’s principal in- juries consisted of an ugly fracture of three of his cervical vertebrae. He decided on laminectomy as the only thing that would save his patient’s life. If the operation proved successful the paralysis would dis- appear, the doctor explained, but the oper- ation was a most dangerous one, and the chances were against his recovery. Penno was anxious for the operation. After he had been in the .hospital for nearly two weeks he was operated on. He was laid on the operating table, face down- ward. The flesh and muscles of the neck were laid back and the spinal column bared. The doctor saw his diagnoses was correct. The vertabrae were ‘fractured. and the Boots were pushing against the spinal cord. he spinal cord was itself injured. One of the pieces of bone had pressed against it 80 much that it was strained almost to the breaking point. Dr. Sutter removed the broken bones and wired the vertabrae into position, For several days it was doubtful whether the operation would be a success. On the third morning when Dr. Sutter made his rounds he was delighted to note an im- provement. Penno said he felt some better and told the doctor he could move his foot. It was ever so little, but {t was something, and the patient and physician were encour- aged. After that the improvement was rapid. In a week Penno had comparatively free use of both legs, but could not stand on them, Tater the use of h's arms was restored, and when he was discharged on May 20 he was as well as ever. : He returned to his work and did not misg a day until he met with the last accident that landed him in the hospital and prom- ises to keep him there for another period. Penno says he is getting used to misfor- tune and does not mind It. “The doctor tells me Iam not hurt nearly s0 badly this time,” he says, ‘“‘and I he knows. But I know the pain is much greater, When I had my neck broken I felt a pain. Now every time I move it hurts ne, “It does seem that I am having more than my share of misfortune, but I guess I have no right to complain for many a man would never have got well from the broken neck. have a wife and five children, who pned on me for a living and I am more wor- | tried about them than I am about myself.” | eparring partner o? “Throw up your hands!” Mike Conley down én Seventh street Was walking through the cold, en from a doorway at his side Sbrang a footpad bold. “I Hadto Do All Martin Told Me to Do,” She Said.

Island City, N. Y., for the murder the annals of crime. NEW YORK, Nov. 10.— Mrs. Augusta Nack, the midwife who has been in prison since July on the charge of being implicated with Martin Thorn in the murder of Wil- liam Guldensuppe, has made a complete confession in court of her connection with the crime. She was placed on the stand this morning by the prosecution and under questioning by the lawyers told the whole ghastly story in detail. Judge Smith, accompanied by District Attorney Walter Jay Cox of Suffolk Coun- ty, took his seat on the bench when ‘he hour for openfng court arrived. The twelve jurymen took their places in the jury box and Thorn, handcuffed to Capt. Meth- ven, came in a minute later and shook hands with his counsel. The latter informed the prisoner for the first time of the confession of Mrs. Nack, and Thorn’s face flushed. Mr. Howe hand- ed his client a copy of a morning paper bearing a large headline, which read. “Mrs, Nack Has Turned State’s Evi- dence.” Thorn gazed at it intently and then hand- ed back the paper. At sixteen minutes to ten the main door of the court-house opened and Mre. Nack, accompanied by her lawyer and Deputy Sheriff Debragga, walked up the center of the court. Thorn eyed her closely as she stood with- in a yard of him, but she avoided his gaze. She was soon placed on the stand, and, un- der the examination of Judge Weller, began the recital of her story, leading up to the time that she had left her husband and was living with Guldensuppe at 439 Ninth ay- enue. guess , | husband. de- | ee THE CHILLED PUGILIST OR THE FOOTPAD’S GREAT MISTAKE. An enterprising, but misguided footpad, wished for somebody to Bob Fitzsimmons, Guidensuppe was known there as her Thorn came there to board. Thorn and Guldensuppe had a fight and Guldensuppe lHcked Thorn. Guldensuppe kicked Thorn downstairs.

Thorn came back three days later with his face and eyes black and blue and his neck swollen, He asked me for money.” ‘“‘Why did he ask you for money?” asked Judge Weller. ‘‘He got no work, and I gave him money,” replied Mrs, Nack in broken English. “When Thorn went away I promised to pay his board bill until he could get work. I met Thorn after this at Twenty-third and Ninth avenue and gave him $20. Thorn was very bitter against Guldensuppe and wanted to kill him. Thorn said: ‘Woman, I love you.’ I said: ‘I am a married woman.’ ‘I know better; you are not,’ replied Thorn. ‘Your husband lives in Astoria.’ “Thorn again said he wanted to kill Gul- densuppe. I said: ‘Martin, don’t kill Gul- densuppe; no, kill me.’ One day we had an- other talk with Thorn and he again says he will kill Guldensuppe. I say no; he say yes. One night Thorn and me quarreled. Martin grabbed me by the throat and held me till blood came from my nose and mouth. I then had a talk with Thorn about hiring a house at Woodside. We went out to see the house and Thorn offered the woman who had the key the money, but she would not take i. We then returned to the sa- loon in New York. This man owned the Woodside house and Thorn paid him $15 in cash for one month’s rent of the Wood- side house. I think Thorn gave the name of Braun when he hired the house. Thorn took the receipt and told the landlord he did not. krow when he would movein. Then Thorn told me that he would kill Gulden- suppe in the Ninth avenue house and put his body in a trunk and send ‘it away. I | said: ‘No, don’t do this.” Thorn then told me to bring Guldensuppe to the Woodside house and he would kill him there.

Mrs. Augusta Nack has turned State’s evidence against Martin Thorn, now on trial] in the Queen’s County Court, Long of William Guldensuppe last June. To save her own life the wretched woman swore away that of the man who for love of her committed one of the most cowardly and brutal murders known to The story Mrs. Nack told corresponds with the theory on which the prosecution has proceeded. Guldensuppe and Thorn both loved her. They met at her house and fought. Guldensuppe whipped Thorn and threw him downstairs. met Thorn afterwards and gave him money.

She Thorn rented the cottage at That was in the morning. She that the crime was committed. She said she and Guldensuppe left New York be- tween 9 and 10 o’clock that morning, and after they had crossed the ferry they boarded a trolley car which left them at the Woodside cottage, “I had the key of the house,” she sald, “and I opened the front door. I told Gulden- suppe to enter and examine the house while I went into the yard. He went up stairs and I heard a shot. Martin Thorn came running down and when he met me he said: ‘I’ve shot him; he’s dead.’ He was very excited and I was half dead,” said the self-confessed murderess, breathing heavily. “What did you do then?” asked Judge Weller. “He asked me to go home and come back at 6 o'clock. When I came back that even- ing Thorn had everything packed in bun- dles. He handed me a bundle, which he said contained Guldensuppe’s clothes, and he took another bundle, which was wrapped up in gray colored paper. He said that it was Guldensuppe’s head and that it was done up in plaster of paris. We took the trolley car and went over to New York on a ferryboat.”’ “On which ferry?” “T don’t know. I am a etranger to the city and can’t say. When we reached New York I went home and Thorn went some other place. I cut open the bundle and found clothes.” “Whose clothes?” asked the prosecution. “William Guldensuppe’s,” replied the woman emphatically. “I saw Thorn that evening again and he ‘told me to meet him the following morning (Saturday) at the Thirty-fourth street ferry.”’ “Where had he put the head?” “IT don’t know; he only told me that he had done away with it. I met him the next day at Thirty-fourth etreet ferry, and then we arranged about hiring a carriage.” The woman then told in detail how the other packages were brought in the surrey CONTINUED ON PAGE TWO. MURDERED BY ROB BEHEADED BERS MD BY A LOCOMOTWE Charles Van Buskirk Slain ee by Highwaymen and His Body Placed on the Railroad Track. HAD BEEN VISITING Qe HIS SWEETHEART. Headless Corpse Discovered by the Engineer of a Switch Engine After It Had Been Mangled by the, Wheels, robbed in the Big Four Railroad yor midway between the middle yard office and Brooklyn, on the east side of the Missis- sippi early Wednesday morning. His lifeless body was then thrown across the railroad tracks to be mangled by pass- ing trains and thus cover up the dastardly crime. across the wrong track, and they were in too much of a hurry to place it in a posi- tion to insure thorough mutilation. A switch engine ran over the body, not a freight train, as was evidently the inten- tion of the murderers. The head was crushed off at the neck as neatly as a guil- lotine could have done it. The miscalculation of the murderers be- came plain in the most ordinary way. A strange man boarded inbound freight train No. 69 on the Big Four road about 2 o’clock in the morning and reported to Conductor Hellmer that a man had just been killed a short distance up the track. The in- formant was excited, and before he could be questioned further he jumped off the ca- boose and disappeared. Conductor Hellmer took his train on to Brooklyn and there reported the informa- tion to the night yard-master. The night watchman then telephoned the fact of what seemed then an accident to the middle yard office and requested that the body be sent for. He also telephoned the news to the East St. Louls Police Station. This was about 2: 30 o’clock. As a messenger from the middle yard of- fice started down the track to the point of the accident he was met half way by H. J. White, one of the yard switchmen. “A man has been run over back yonder,” said White. “I know it,” answered the messenger. “I’m on my way there now.” “But it just this moment happened,’’ said White. “How could you know it?’ It was no time then to solve mysteries, and White turned back with the messenger to the spot where the body lay. A crowd had gathered in the meantime and stood around the body. Thomas McKenna, night watchman for the Wabash road, was in the crowd. He slipped his hand up one of the dead man’s trousers and felt the flesh. It was cold to the touch. McKenna then opened the shirt and felt the body. It, too, was as cold ag bodies ever get after death. “Get a lantern,”’ said McKenna, “and let me look closer at the face. I may know the man.” The moon was shining brightly, but the body lay upon the stomach and the face was not in plain view. The body was rolled over, but the head remained in the same position on the ground. Some one attempted to turn it over, and made the discovery then that it was not attached to the body by so much as a shred of skin. A lantern was handed McKenna and he kneeled down over the head and held the light so that its rays fell upon the features. No blood flowed from the head. The mouth was open and the jaws clinched tn the rigor of death. The eyes were closed. A deep gash on top of the skull, lay!ng back the scalp, was noticed. Another wound in the left temple, having the appearance of a shot wound or having been made by some jagged instrument, was plainly discerned. The lit- tle blood around the openings of these wounds was coagulated. “Where is this man’s overcoat?” said Mce- Kenna. “If the body had one on I should | say he was the drunken fellow I saw stag- gering up the Wabash track about mid- cietsaiesititatenianaeitiatiniemdiineds And he did. “Throw up your hands! he roared: and Mike, As juick as e’er you saw, “Let fly” his “dukes” and “landed” on Zhe would-be robber’s jaw. undertook to rob big Mike Conley, the an hour after the performance at the Stand. ard Theater Monday night.

Mrs. Nack’s Confession Is a Vital Blow to the Defense. ‘in a business- . |; much affected. to Capt. i be first proved before parts of most dramatic climax in the history of criminal trials in this city. It will prob- ably save her life and cause Thorn’s electro- cution, yet there will be enough of doubt ever present to warrant at least the ques- tion: Is Guidensuppe dead? The trial was progressing famously when interrupted thus sensational. jury of twelve men, exceptionally capable and ac- ceptable, was secured in one day of eight hours. which breaks the record for great murder cases. It was done by the court ruling that the State must accept or reject the talesmen at the conclusion of the State’s questioning and before the man is turned over to the defendant. Other courts could profit by adopting this ruling. Evidence tending to identify the bits of human flesh before the court as those found had been heard over the protest of the defendant, who insisted that it was out of time, as the death of Guidensuppe must is body could be identified. On this failure to prove the man dead Thorn based his case. ublic opinion was that Thorn would not be con- victed of murder, whatever else a free and unaccountable jury might do, guilty though he probably was. If Thorn killed Guldensuppe, it-was done to piease Mrs. Nack, who had a bestial control over the fellow. Sne was the cause and was to be the beneficiary; she was a artisan in before and after the murder; ers was the inhuman heart that incited the man to action and lured the other pcor vic- tim to his death just as she had taken the life of innocent babes while prac icing crim- inal midwifery. Yet, with a coward’s heart, she turns State’s evidence and will escape death, while her tool and the lesser crim- inal dies. She will probably get off with a sentence of twenty years. Even yet Thorn may make the case in- teres.ing. William F. Howe, his lawyer, is very astute and may brea Mrs. Nack. When the Post-Dispatch reporter saw her in her cell, Just before daylight to-day, she Was wonderfully calm. “What do you want?’ she asked. "Mrs. Nack.”’ sa‘d the reporter, “it has been given out that you have made a confes- sion, Is it true?” “What could I evas'vely. “Your counsel, Mr. Friend, has author- ized the statement that you have made a confession Naa Martin Thorn in the murder of Will‘am Guldensuppe, and that it will be used on the trial.’ “If Mr. Friend said so, you go to him. He will tell you all,” she said glibly. “‘I have nothing more to say. I am going to bed.”’ And she gaily tripped from view.

WATKA’S NEW LEASE OF LIFE. The Condemned Indian Respited for Ten Days. EUFALA, I. T., Nov. 10.—Chief Isparhec- “Again, Dr. Huebner found that the cut- ting could not have been done with an ax, for there was not room to wield one, and had there been there would have been dents in the side of the tub, and blood ail over the room. As a matter of fact there were only a. few specks, and these could not have come from a human vein or artery. “Tf there was any cutting up done, which from first to last orn has denied, the ex- pert was prepared to prove conclusively that no one not a skilled anatomist or a skilled surgeon could have done it in that bath tub. No one who did not possess this . skill could have possibly made a success of it. If he held the man alive then the arteries in the neck would have spurted blood all OVvergmhe wall and the same would have been true“when the aorta was cut. The great fight was to have been made on the ques- tion of identification. The head is still miss- ing, but the pros*cution depended upon five distinguishing marks to prove the dismem- bered body was that of Guldensuppe. One was a felon on a certain finger. ly in the examination of a witness as to his knowledge of what a felon was, the defense asked: ; “Did you ever see a felon?’ “Yes, sir; I have one. Here it is; and there it Was on the same hand, on the same finger and at the same place as is said to have been one on Guldensuppe’s finger. This only shows that circumstantial evi- | dence is often dangerous, just as it was proved recently that expert testimony was uselees because the expert based his opinion on a scientific law and table laid down by an eminent chemist, who testified that there was a misprint in his book, and that the very opposite result would be shown by cor- rected rule, The most famous mistake of circumstan- tial evicence in the history of New York was in connection with the great Park Row accident a few years ago, when a restau- rant fell down a the noon hour. It is recalled whenever a big circumstantal evi- dence case arises. An employe of a newspaper left a friend 1 feet from the restaurant, saying he was going to lunch. Five minutes later the house fell. Among the dead taken out was & man whoee head was charred beyond recognition. The body was perfect, how- ever. There was the withered and bent right leg of the missing man; there was the exact size foot; in the pocket .were the two cards of the newspaper man. These marks with othere were quickly ‘dentified by the widow, brothers and friends.

There was more of it than usual Tues- day afternoon and evening. The two women, according to the ne ghbors, had been quarreling all afternoon.

WEDNESDAY—ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH—NOVEMBER 10, 1897. THE SYMPATHY OF THE WORLD GOES OUT 10 STARVING CUBANS Reports of the State Department Confirm the State- ments Made by a Post-Dispatch Staff Correspondent. oo GEN. BLANCO CANNOT GIVE RELIEF. Weyler Has Imposed Conditions on the People of the Island Which His Successor Is Powerless to Remedy Even if Disposed to Do So. Bpecial to the Post-Dispatch. é j WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 10.—At the Cabinet meeting President McKinley expressed profound sympathy for the suffering women and children now dying of starvation in Cuba. When Secretary Sherman entered the Cabinet chamber in the White House, President McKinley referred to the published statements of the starvation in Cuba and commended the Secretary’s expression of the universal sentiments of sympathy, if not of horror, with which the American people read the details of the suffering in the island. The President’s remarks brought up the whole Cuban question. It was then revealed that-the United States Consul’s report, recently received at the State De- partment, not only verifies all the details which the Post-Dispatch has made public of the starvation of a large percentage of the women and children of Cuba, but the Consul reports that there is no immediate prospect ‘of the alleviation of the suffering. Even if Blanco reverses the policy of Weyler so far as to extend the territory in which the Cubans will be allowed to cultivate their farms, the relief will now come too late to prevent the deaths of thousands. Members of the Cabinet interpret the reports made by Consuls as indicating that the plight in which Weyler has left Cuba is so horrible that his successor is powerless to afford immediate remedy even if he is disposed to do so. His good faith and sincerity of intention are not doubted. The indications are that unless the President presents the matter in some forci- ble way to Congress, that body will try to take the whole Cuban question into its own hands promptly after assembling on December 6. After the Cabinet meeting Attorney General McKenna said to the Post-Dis- patch correspondent: “You can say that the Cuban sufferers have my sincere sympathy and prayers for speedy relief.” Secretary Gage spoke in like manner. “The sympathy of the entire nation and of the whole world goes out to the said. “They have my hearty sympathy,” he starving Cubans. I sincerely trust the awful privations will soon be a thing of the past.” The Cabinet officers do not agree as to the extent to which interference on the part of this Government would be justifiable. Those members representing great business companies are adverse to any policy savoring of intervention or calculated to produce war. But it has become evident to all that the pacific character of Spain’s response to the representations made by Minister Woodford, or any assur- ances concerning self-government or the institution of reforms in Cuba, will not be sufficient to satisfy an overwhelming public sentiment. M’KINLEY PAVES THE WAY FOR SPAIN’S PROCRASTINATION. WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.—It is becoming evident that President McKinley is paving the way for further procrastination on the part of Spain in ending the Cuban war. To. day the indications are that the President’s message to Congress will declare that Spain’s reply to Woodford’s note is emi- nently satisfactory to this Government, as in it the Spanish ministry pledges itself to | correct the abuses of power in Cuba which was the subject of so much complaint dur- ing the Weyler administration, and gives assurance of its friendly feeling toward the American people. Hie will say that Spain accepts our good offices in its efforts to restore peace in Cuba and in a perfectly respectful and friendly spirit asks this Government 6o far as pos- sible to restrain the insurgent sympathiz- ws in the United States from giving mate- rial ald to the enemies of Spain in Cuba, The reply, the message will say, intimates that but for the assistance that has been given them by filibusters from the United States eng would have been restored long. ago, ut it does not contain a sentence that could give offense or be construed into an expres- Sion of an unfriendly purpose or feeling ogainst the Government of the United States. On the contrary, the note, it will be Stated, is distinctly conciliatory in tone, although insisting upon the right and duty of Spain to put down an armed dinsurrec- tron within its own territory. It is plainly evident that the reply thas made a favorable impression upon McKin- ley and the members of the Cabinet, and it is not unlikely that one of the features of his torthcoming message to Congress will be the statement that there is nothing in the situation to justify present interference on the part of the United States. HAS A WILL OF IRON —_— SPECIAL LEGISLATION WAS NEC.- ESSARY TO KEEP DR. JOHN- STON OUT OF JAIL. HE REFUSED TO PAY A FINE. ¥riend of the President of the South- ern Surgical Association Illus- trates His Character. wr. George Ben Johnston, President of the Southern (Surgical and Gynecological Asso- ciation, now in session at the Southern Hotel, besides belonging to one of the first families of the Old Dominion, enjoys the distinction of being the only man for whom an act of the State Legislature has been nocessary to offset the consequences of a kame of cards. He is a typical Virginian, courteous and affable, soft of speech and strong of will. The following story told by one of tho doctor's college friends aptly illustrates the character-of the man: “It was in the old days, some twenty odd years age,” said Dr. Johnston's friend, “when card-playing in public houses was a misdemeanor in the Stare of Virginia. The disastrous results of this form of amuse- ment in the wilder parts -of the State had stirred society deeply and finally moved the legisiators at Richmond to stamp it with thelr disapproval. While the hew law was not without its good effects it wo rkec hardship upon these who played oy on Bag ment, AS is usual under such circumstances the statute was frequently Violated, “Dr. Johnston came from one of the old- est and most renowned families of the Com. monwealth.

The ma- chinery will be set in motion by those per- sons who are charged with the administra- tion of criminal law. ‘‘Il desire to say, at Judge Roderick E., he beginning, that I occupy a delicate position in this matier, but | want it distinctly understood that there are no circumstances or conditions under which I would touch the office now held by Judge Bland. I was noc elected and do not consider that I would have a rignt to one dollar of the people’s money, no matter how the law might favor me. “But the courts must heid inviolate. When the people-I speak as a citizen— lose confidence jn their. judiciary,.1t means zood-by to our republican form of govern- ment. It appears to me, from Judge biuand s own admissions, that there was more money expended in his behalf than the law permits and that there was an ante-election agreement by which Judge North withdrew from the Ponulist ticket. P “The fact that almost on the first day of Judge Bland’s accession to office, Judge North was elected reporter of the court, when he was not of the same political cam- plexion as the court, gives rise to the sus- picion tnat there was an ante-e.ection agreement in that direction. Mr. Gold- sm ith, who was forced out to make room for Judge North, never voted a Republican ticket in his life. He was a Democrat, al- though, I believe, a goldite. An effort W as made to force Reuben Pew out of the mar. shalship. He wes a'‘silver Democrat ane happened to be a fighter, so he was held on a while longer. “The act which bears upon the subject of campaign expenses was approved March $1, 1893, and is known as the act to prevent corrupt practices in elections,’ The first sect'on provides that persons doing certain things shall be guilty of br-bery at elec- tions, which by the fifth clause is made a felony, punishable by imprisonment in the Penitentiary not less than two years nor more than five. The secona section @h- larges the statements of the first, and then in subsequent sections —, how much oney ‘randidate may spend. mtn ‘the sixth section {tis provided that a candidate may expend $100 for each 06,000 votes cast for that office at the preceding election, and so forth, making the total amount a matter of calculation. Under the provisions of that section I calculated that a candidate for the office of Judge of the St. Louis Court of Appeals could not spend more than between $1,700 and $1,800, which it is estimated Judge Bland exceded. “The law is unjust in some respects, In that it holds a candidate responsible for money spent in his interest by others with hig knowledge or sanction. When prepar- ing- my return to the Secretary of State I considered it incumbent upon me to ascer- tain and report what I knew or had reason to know had been spent by others. Hence, I included an amount paid out by the Bar Association for pamphlets and letters, about $100 or $200.

William Bauer of 2801 De Kalb street took out a license to marry Mrs. Mary Rabe of 2848 Lyon street, June 2% last. He returned the license Tuesday to the Recorder’s office. On the back of the docu- ment was written: “I am too poor to get married; will try again later on.’’ auer said that when he took out the license he intended to become a benedict in a few days. He then had a job in the shops of the Missouri Car and Foundry Co., at Da Kalb and Louisa streets. The day fol- lowing the issuance of the license he says he was laid off. He was without funds neither he nor his prospective bride had enough money between them to pay for the services of a minister. He claims to have tried repeatedly io borrow the required amount from friends, but without success. Bauer is 26 years old. His fiancee is a widow, with four small children. She con- fesses to 39 years. ! When Bauer’s friends heard of the post- ponement of his marriage and the reason he gave, they smiled incredulously. Sev- eral intimated that poverty had nothing to do with it, as they averred that Bauer has been employed steadily at the Missouri Car and Foundry Co. for the last five years ex- cept at intervals of a couple of weeks at a time when he has been laid off. This statement is corroborated by the manager of the above company. Bauer was hard at work unloading scra iron at the car shops when a Post-Dispatch reporter called on him. He said he was reinstated in his old position about i i i i i The Corrupt Practices Act, approved March 31, 1893, makes !t unlawful to give, procure or promise any office, place or employment ing his vote; to make any loan, gift or promise person; to.endeavor to procure such election in return for such gift or promise; to pay any money to be expended in bribing meat, drink, entertainment or provision to any person for the purpose of influencing voters; to coerce voters ‘nm any way, or to pereonate in cast- of any influence a votér the election to to procure voters; to provide or pay the ex- himself or candidate’s or less; may expend, by his own or any other basis of $100 for 5,000 voters 50,000, 50 cents—the number In case a candidate has exceeded the legitimate sum allowed, or been guilty of candidate has the right to bring an action of ouster against him, and in h'‘s own favor.

HIS WIFE WANTS A DIVORCE. He Says That She Is Jealous Without Cause and Interferes With His Business. Recause of his love for his fishing rod, as he says, Arthur H. Freidberg, the druggist at 1600 Biddle street, is about to lose his wife. Mrs. Annie Freidberg, a comely young German, hasn't left him yet, but she tried to have him arrested Tuesday afternoon, and then saw a lawyer about getting a divorce. She did all this while the druggist was off fishing. She visited the Four Courts with her two children and demanded a warrant against her husband. With tears and sobs she said she wanted him arrested because he would not give her money enough to go back to Berlin, where her parents live, The .warrant was refused, and the young wife, with her two children, departed. Arthur H. Freidberg is a tall, blonde Ger- man, with a pointed Van Dyke beard, and he has a successful business, there being no other drug store within a radius of three squares. He was married five years ago. The Freidbergs live over the drug store. Mrs. Freidberg said Wednesday: ‘“T have seen a lawyer and until my 4di- vorce petition is filed I will not talk about FINESSE. ~~ The Subtile Weapon of Woman. The kind of management some hus- bands require, cultivates a skill and finesse in their wives that would fit some of them for diplomatic positions. “I never intend to deceive John in any manner, but I find it necessary to do certain things for his good, but without his knowledge; for in- stance, he has been subject to sick spells at times, that seem to come irom stomach and liver. He refuses to leave off coffee, of which he is very fond, yet I know it hurts him, so without his knowledge I have one-half Postum Cereal blended with the coffee, thus giving him a bever- age that is half liquid food and only half the stimulant and narcotic as before. He of course could not tell the difference, and some mornings I served full Postum Ce- real Food Coffee and still he did ngt de- tect the difference. The sick spellsvhave disappeared and naturally I am delighted. The day is soon coming, I hope, when I can tell him all about it and show him that his taste is as well satisfied on Postum as on coffee or half coffee, while the result in physical health is beyond computation. For the present I am compelled to con- duct the work by easy stages, for men are curious creatures you know, 4 ; me aa ~ AEE Ss 2 SH WOULD CO FISHING, my wrongs or troubles. I would have left my husband long ago except for my two children. I want them and the law will have to give them to me.” Druggist Freidberg thinks he is a much abused man, whose load of trouble is too heavy for even his broad shoulders to bear. He was at the prescription desk as usual Wednesday. “All this trouble Is caused by my wife’s jealousy and my love for fishing,’’ he said. Every Tuesday I take a day off and go fishing with a friend. These trips are my only recreation from the prescription room. A druggist’s life is confining and every drug clerk gets a day off. “My wife imagines Tuesday with a woman and when I get back home from my excursions she asks me whether that woman is a blonde or a brunette and there is the deuce to pay. I plead and protest in vain. I have proved to her that she wrongfully accuses me, but that makes noedifference. She will have nothing he that I aen visiting a woman. “At night I don’t dare to sm'‘le or bow to a woman customer in my store. I look through the plate glass window, and in the darkness outside I see my wife's face peer- ing through. I can’t kick my customers out just because they happen to be women, and I treat them politely. My wife imagines that I am making love to every woman who enters the store. After the customer ee my wife comes inside and war fol- ows. “I can’t go down town to see my whole- sale people or to pay my bills without being accused of meeting a woman. My wife has followed me many times, but ft is impossi- ble for me to convince her that I am in- nocent. “Before I was married I was no Jady’s man and am not now. “My wife tells me she doesn't love me and wants to leave. I tell her to do so, but that she can’t take my two children. I don’t believe she can properly can for them, and that is why I wi!l fight any divorce suit. “IT will give this drug store, which makes me a good living, and what money I have in bank to any man who can show that I have even filrted with a woman in five years. And Judge Spencer holds flirting is neither a sin nor a crime." PRISONER PATIENT ESCAPED. Thomas Garrity Didn’t Wait to Be Op- erated On. Thomas Garrity, a prisoner-patient at the City Hospital, escaped late Tuesday night. Garrity is 19 years old and was being held on a charge of burglary. Two weeks ago he became sick. A few days ago it was determined to operate on him for appen- dicitis. He was taken from the cell and placed in a medical ward. When the guard's back was turned he left the ward unobserved. The police were notified as soon as his absence was noted. He was clad in the hospital garb. TOD SLOANE WON AGAIN. Captured the Lancashire Handicap, Riding Easter Gift.

It has been charged that an ante- election deal was entered into in behalf of Judge Bland of the Court of Appeals, by which Judge Bland, in consideration of the payment of $1,000 to the Populist State Committee and a promise of an appointment, secured the withdrawal in his favor of J. W. North, the Populist candidate for the Court of Appeals. The charge is supplemented by letters which were published in yesterday’s Post-Dis- patch. If the charge is true, the corrupt prac- tices act has been violated and a gross stain has been placed upon the bench of Missouri. The law is clear as to the of- fense and its punishment. Its prohibi- tions with regard to the use of money, influence or promises to secure election are comprefensive, Its provisions for securing evidence, for the prosecution and punishment of offenders are plain and effective. Every dollar of expendi- ture by candidates and committees must be accounted for and the purpose for which it is expended set down. If Judge Biand or any agent or com. mittee acting for him paid money to J. W. North or to an agent or committee for his withdrawal, the fact should ap- pear in the sworn statements of Judge Bland and the Treasurer of the Demo- cratic Committee. If it does not appear in the statements they are liable to pros- ecution. If the money was paid to the Populists or payments or promises were made to Mr. North, Judge Bland and the committeemen and all who participated in the deal must be prosecuted. Judge Bland is liable to be ousted from office by the candidate securing the next high- est number of votes. The law is so clear and the matter I!s of so much importance that immediate steps should be taken to ascertain the truth. Neither Judge Bland nor the bench can rest under the imputation of an illegal and corrupt bargain. Judge Bland should not only assert his inno- cence, but seek vindication in court. If the-men who are making the charges are acting in good faith they will press them to a proper conclusion in the courts. The matter should be takén out of the sphere of political scandal and of partisan news- paper trial and the truth or falsity of the charges settled in court. -_——_-—— C—O If Mr. Filley does not soon speak out that public mass meeting to condemn and oppose franchise stealing will get ahead cf him.

Of the $50,000 appropriated for the relief of Americans in Cuba $40,000 remains after the purpose of the appropriation has been accomplished. Thousands of Cubans are starving to death, but Spain, in accordance with the barbarous methods of Weyler, declines to permit relief to be given them either by American Consuls. individuals or the Red Cross Society whose officers have peti- tioned in vain for permission to do their work of mercy. The first act of Congress should be to appropriate the remainder of this sum to a Cuban relief fund to be distributed by the Red Cross Society. The appropria- tion should be coupled with a demand that the Red Cross Society be permitted free acce *s and safe passport to all parts of Cuba to relieve suffering combatants and non-combatants.

Berry of the Civic Fed- eration says that the work of that organ- ization in opposition to franchise steal- ing will be limited to an appeal to the Julian law. The Julian law had an excellent pur- pose and isa good measure in some cases, but not in all. It would be useless as a means of protection in the cases of fran- chises for branches of existing roads and for lines in outlying districts. The only bidder for a branch or outlying line would be the road with which it connects and Winnebago Indian, reached his 125th year by abstaining from his own prescriptions. Am'd rural scenes and lowing herds, Jailer Wagner will soon forget the escapes and worriments. incident to the care of city cattle. If the man of blood and iron was Pierpont Morganed by Banker Bleichroeder, neither Mr. Cleveland nor Mr. McKinley will be surprised to hear of it. When Ben Harrison was in the White House he got from Europe only a keg of Scotch whisky, but a Scotch fortune is coming into the McKinley family. If a woman can tie a hangman's knot quicker and with more skill than a man, ag seems to be true here in St. Louis, what occupation is not open to new women?

There is no better corn land than that of Missouri, The St. Louis buff rooster that stands perfectly erect and imitates the bearing of an eagle, is a shrewd fowl. He has not made the mistake of imitating a turkey so near Thanksgiving. Baron Dtebat-Daher, who charges that Bismarck took advantage of a great office to enrich himself in speculation, would doubtless condemn also a number of United must depend for a down-town terminus. If the managers of existing roads or the promoters of particular schemes are p®°r- mitted to specify the routes for which franchises are offered they can bid them in at their own prices. Only franchises for complete lines could be sold to advan- tage to the highest bidders, and there is need for few lines of this kind in St, Louls at present. The city is now thoroughly gridironed down-town and throughout the central district. The city through the Board of Public Improvements should specify the lines for which franchises ‘are to be granted, and the ground for the grant should be public necessity alone. The city should , fix the minimum price of the franchise, | either in returns to. the city from the earnings of the road or In reduced fares When the earnings reach reasonable profit on the money invested. It is a question of method rather than flaw. Franchises are privileges granted by the city for the good of the commu- nity. The municipality can dispose of them for whatever j purpose and upon whatever terms within the provis- ions of general laws it pleases. The Julian law was framed and passed to check dishonest municipal officers from turning over valuable franchises to cor- porations and speculators without any compensation. It does not. prevent city authorities from adjusting to the best ad- vantage the methods of granting fran- chises. Honest, common-sense business meth- ods are all that are needed to protect cit- izens from unnecessary lines and from franchise steals. Citizens should be sat- |! isfied with nothing less. They should effectively demand that public interest and not private greed shal] be subserved in the disposal of franchises. a. ll ? .

FAIR CONTINUE TO COME IN CLOUDS. ee SIXTEEN MORE ARE TO BE FILED SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., Nov. 10.—Within a few days sixteen more contests are to be filed in the Superior Court against the trust will of the late James G. Fair. This will was dated Sept. 21, 1894, and the orig!- nal was stolen from the County Clerk's office and never recovered. There is cer- tain to be a suit brought by the three chil- dren, Mrs. Herman Oelrichs, Miss Virginia Fair and Charles L. Fair. Mrs. Neitie Craven will probably file a second and a third may be commenced in the name of an alleged grandchild of the deceased mil- lionaire. The contests will be commenced upon the grounds that ex-Senator Fair was incompetent or insane at the time he made the trust will and that he was acting der undue influence and duress. Mrs. Craven’s suit wiil probably brought by her as the widow of the Senator. Judge Slacq’s decision places in such a position that she must fight the trust will if she expects to get anything at all. The contest will be upon the same general grounds as that of the three chil- dren. It is stated that the contest of the heirs will be brough to obtain relief in case Judge Slack is reversed by the Su- preme Court in his ruling destroying the trust clause in the will. GRASPING FOR DEAD MEN'S MILLIONS, MISS GRACE ELLIOTT’S FORTUNE OF $25,000,000 SEEMS TO BE MELTING AWAY. _ HOBART KNOWS NOTHING OF IT. SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 10.~The $25,000,000 fortuen of the late Imblay Clarke, which Miss Grace M. Elliott of this city expected to inherit, seems to have been a myth. Vice- President Hobart and Goy. Griggs of New Jerséy, whose name are used in connection with this story, gave an air of reliability to it, but disclaim all knowledge of the case in which it was stated they had been en- gaged by Eastern heirs of the dead miner. The story ws that the Vice-President ana Gov. Griggs of New Jersey had interestea thmeselves in trying to find Mr. Clarke’s heirs. In his letter to Miss Elliot's foster mother, Mr. Hobart says: “T have nothing to do with this matter whatever; have never been consulted by anybody, and all the statements which you may have seen and which I have seen are untruthful so far as they have any refer- ence to me.” Gov.

NEW YORK, Nov. 10.—Nine years ago, September, 1888, William R. Foster fled this country. It was discovered that he was a defaulted to the amount of $193,000, He has been arrested in Neuilly, France, and will be brought back to this country to face his crime. For whom was this fortune stolen? For a woman—a wee slip of a girl, only a hand- ful of grace and winsomeness and fascina- tion—his ward, Lola Beloite. Foster is the son of the late millionaire flour merchant. He is a graduate of Colum- bia Law School. He was the legal adviser of the Gratuity Fund of the New York Produce Exchange, and received from that source an income of $10,000 a year. From -his private practice he received as much more. He was a member of the University, South Side, Downtown, Union and New- port Clubs. Personally he was aman of distinguished appearance and engaging manner, being tall, well built, with large dark eyes and hair. He wWas an frreproachable dresser. He Was popular with his fellows. He had the tastes of the average New York business and societv man. He was open-handed, gen- erous—extravagant, possibiy at times, though not recklessly so for his income of 000, It is safe to ony that there was not a member of the Produce Exchange who stood on a more enviable plane, who was more admired and respected than the hand- some, dashing young fellow who had the entire charge of the financial affairs of the eee Fund, The change in these conditions come when Lola Beloite came into Foster's life. Her mother kept a boarding-house at As- bury Park. No one knows quite where or how the dignified young lawyer first met the girl who became his ward, was educated , introduced thereafter as his neice, 4d with him and who, his , Is now his legal wife. Foster lavished presents fit for a princess upon his girl sweetheart. She had only to suggKest a desire, a wish, and it was granted. It was a fairy-tale existence. Poor little Cinderella had found her handsome, gener- ous prince, At Bayport, L. IL, is a superb mansion, surrounded by great trees, tropical flowers, murmuring fountains and dim, dark, wind- ing paths—a perfect setting for a love drama. This beautiful home Foster be- stowed upon his ward, and here she ‘was installed as mistress. Traps and carriages and horses were pro- vided for this little girl who used to walt upon her mother’s summer boarders, and who had been pleased with the present of a ribbon or a pair of gloves. Foster had neglected his practice for this girl. He could not bear a stuffy town office, nor musty books, nor tedious papers, when he thought of the birds, the flowers, the moonlight of Bayport and the entranc- ing woman who awaited him amid these poetic environments, His practice was falling rapidly away. He needed money. So he forged—this gen- tleman, well born, well bred,: well educated. To support the woman he adored in silken luxury he became a thief. His methods were to prepare a mort- gage on certain property, forge the signa- ture of the Register, attach a false seal and execute any other forgeries that might be necessary to give the document a legal aspect. Checks for the fictitious mortgages were then drawn upon the Gratuity Fund and pocketed by the forger. It is not yet known how long these for- geries were vein AE san Some detlare they began five years before the discovery. Strangely enough, fit was through another man’s crime that the trustees of the Gra- tuity Fund first became suspicious of their counsel. James BB. Bedell, a member of the law firm of Shipman, Barlow, Larocque & Choate, was found to have been conducting b.g sw.ndling operations by means of forged mortgages. When Bedell’s operations were made public and the crime was in every one’s mouth, Foster made a significant re- mark—a remark which led to his undoing: “It igs easy to get rid of money,” he said. “What is $00 to a woman? It goes so easy that it mounts up fast.’’ One of the trustees of the Gratuity Fund overheard his remark, and it set him think- ing. A whisper had crept to the Produce Exchange of the beautiful girl in Bayport. Foster was often laughing'y spoken of as ‘fa devil of a fellow,” “‘a high roller’ and “a great old boy.”’ This trustee, Alexander Wrenn, suggested to the secretary of the fund the advisabil- ity of calling upon Foster to show how his accounts stood and to have his securities ex- amined. When Foster was spoken to on the sub- ject he made some frivolous objection to the proposed examination. But his objec- tion was dismissed and he was ordered to appear before the trustees on September 26 The trustees met, but their legal adviser was not there. He had absconded, Detectives tracked him through Vermont to Canada, but did not succeed in capturing him. To all intents and purposes William R. Foster disappeared from off the face of the earth. With him went the woman in the affair; the woman for whose caprices he had toesed away his reputation, his future and his honor. For nine years they have wandered in far lands. A glimpse of them has been caught here and there; rumors of their life abroad have drifted back to this country, but always vague, intangible rumors. They have been seen in Spain, it is said, and in England, and two years ago were supposed to be in Zurich, Switzerland. During Foster’s exile his father has died and willed him $200,000. William Foster, §Sr., paid the fund $50,000, and the Bayport house was seized and sold for $26,000. This makes Foster’s present in- debtedness to the fund $177,000, which his friends claim he has been willing to pay if the fund would waive criminal proceed- ings against him. Duncan C. Norvell is clerk of the Gratuity. Fund. Last summer he spent his vacation in Swtzerland. It was while there that Mr. Norvell heard rumors of an American who was leading a life of extravagant ease and luxury ina suburb old chateau near Neuilly, France. Mr. Norvell communicated his discoveries to the trustees of the Gratuity Fund on his return from Furope. He was delegated to go back and work with Scotland Yard de- tectives, who were already on the trial of the rich Americans at Neuilly. ‘ Mr. Norvell sailed and within three days after his oe the arrest of William e Foster was made at Neuilly, by Inspector Frank Frowest of Scotland Yard,, London, ~~ See BANKS SECURED BY DEED, The Bauer-Walter Co.

If all the women in the City Hospital were as silent as Josfe Kozelck and Kate Schieber that institution would be like a deaf mute asylum. These women are recent arrivals in the observation ward. Kate Schieber is 47 and she has not spoken a word for nearly twenty years, her rela- tives say. She has been weak all of her life, but was kept by her mother and brother in their home at 811 South Third street, until Monday, when they gave up the struggle and sent her to the public in- stitution. A reporter for the Post-Dispatch called at the Schieber home. ‘*My sister has been frailin body and mind from infancy,’’ said her brother, ‘“‘but of late she has grown much worse. My mother is old and feeble and at last we decided to send Kate to the hospital, although we re- gretted to do so. “She hasn’t talked for nearly twenty e elevator. The! years, but it is on account of her affliction. The report that she made a vow never to. Harty. pustor of St. Leo's Parish, w speak again is not true, and she never had a love affair, 1am positive. She was never able to think of such qa thing.’’ At the hospital the doctors regard Schieber woman's case as hopeless. “She is an insane sufferer of che melan- cholia type,”’ said Dr. Lippe to a Post-Dis- patch reporter, ‘‘and that accounts for her silence. We often encounter such cases, although this is one of unusually iong standing.” Even more interesting is the case of Josie Kozelck. She is 22 years old, buxom and rather pretty. Until last Saturday after- noon Josie was sound in body and mind. the avenue. About 4 o'clock Saturday after- noon she disappeared. Six o clook dinner was not ready and there was much specula- —- as to what had become of the servant gir). Sunday afternoon Policeman Egan found the young woman prostrate upon the side- walk in front of St. Vincent Orphan Asy- lum, The officer could not learn her iden- tity, as she would not talk. She was sent to the City Hospital and recorded there as unknown.” Soon after arriving she told one of the at- tendants that she was going to see God. Then she suffered a violent spasm, lasting ten minutés. After that she stretched out upon her cot and lay motionless as a statue. She has not spoken since. A brother of the atient called at the hospital and identified er. He vainly tried to get her to talk. Josie Kozelck has been in St, Louis about two years. She came here from II]linofs and @ brother is the a J relative in this city. “She wiil probably recover,’ said Dr, Lippe, “because her affliction is not of long standing. She has hysteria major. Her re- fusal to talk is simply an insane freak. She is liable to resume epeech at any time.” The wanderings of Josie Kozelck from the time she left her place of employment Sat- urday until she was found Sunday afternoon, will be a mystery aiways. From her appearance it was evident that she walked constantly until she fell. Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing Syrup for Obildren teething cures wind colic, diarrhoea, ote. ———— HIS FOOT WAS SCALDED.

He sat in a big chair Wednesday and flopped from side to side. Every muscle twitched convulsively; he shoved his feet to and fro on the floor and rubbed his hands; the veins on his neck stood out like cords; cold, clammy sweat poured off of his fore- heat and the throbbing in his temples was plainly visible a dozen feet away. The sight of the alleged murderer was enough to excite the pity of the most hard- ened.

Henri Soulard Bogy, one of the best known young men in St. Louis, died at 10:44 o'clock Tuesday night at the family. resi- dence, 3645 Olive street. His death was a particularly sad one, e Was 27 years of age and was. born and reared in this city. He was the son of B. P. Bogy and the grandson of L. V. Rogy, formerly United States Senator from Missouri, After his graduation from the St. Louis public schools the young man spent a year as a cOmmon laborer in order to get a true insight into the lives and conditions of the workingmen.

HE WILL NEVER KNOW WHY. Finn, Who Couldn’t Be Understood, Fined by Judge Peabody. Peter Lain, a Finn, will go to the Work- house Wednesday afternoon. He will, per- haps, never know why. He was in police court Wednesday charged with Knocking a sandwich out of Frankie Palmer’s hand at Ninth and Chestnut streets Tuesday night and then trying to stab her with a pair of talilor’s shears. He could not speak English in court and Deputy Marshal Bader called for a Finnish interpreter, but there were none in the audience. The witnesses for the city were heard and then Lain was asked what he had to gay. He said something no one could under- stand and the judge fined him.$19. The woman said she met him at Ninth and Chestnut streets. He was very drunk and knocked a hamburger sandwich out of her hand, then, when she swore: at him. he drew a pair of tailors’ scissors from his pocket and made a lunge at her. She got away and Patrolman Hoffman arrested him, SENTENCE SERVED WHILE FREE H. Bullard Given a Year, but It Dates From a Year Ago. H. Bullard of Lincoln County appeared in the United States District Court Wednes- day morning to have sentence passed on him. A year ago he pleaded guilty to the charge of mailing an obscene ietter. Judge Adams accepted the plea but suspended sentence. sullard was fined $1 and was given a one-year jail sentence, He will not serve a day. The judge said he would date his imprisonment from the day or which he was arrested, which was Oct. 26, 1896. So Bullard’s sentence was already served before he entered upon it. — ae = & M INFALLIBLE YEAST POWDER The First and Best Baking Powder, , Beeston tMourite BOSTON. 2 a -e ee ae + ate — Al | MRS.

Why Will People Endure So Much When It Can Be Easily Avoided? “The great American trouble is dyspepsia.”’ No one realizes this more than the miserable sufferers who drag out painful existences. The body requires health, strength and assistance. It calls for nutriment, but meets no response, because the stomach is unable to digest, assimilate and turn into blood food that is forced into it. What then can the poor sufferer do? It is useless to take more food, because the broken-down stomach cannot take care of what It already has. There can be but one answer to this question, and that is to assist the stomach to properly da the work for which it was created. Do you ask how? The answer is simple. There can be but one way, and that is to help the stomach to help itself. Not by drugs, not by mineral washes, not even by massaging, but by constant and healthful stimulation. In this way alone can the worked stomach be restored. There is but one pure, healthful and medicinal stimulant now known to the public and the profes- sion, and that is Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey. This whiskey should be taken either before, after or with the meals, and you can readily see how by gently stimulating the stomach when the food is taken, it enables the stomach to digest the food and thus prevent dyspepsia and the troubles which follow in its wake. It will be well for every reader to rememeber these truths, and also to remember that it is the only medicinal whiskey which can be depended upou to accomplish just what you most require. SPOKE ON SPECIALISTS PRESIDENT OF THE SOUTHERN SURGICAL ASSOCIATION. OVer- DUTIES OF THE PROFESSION. The Time Has Come for Medical Men to Divide the Burdens, Said Dr. Johnston. The attendance at the second day’s ses- s.on of the Southern Surgical and Gynec- Ological Association was larger than_ the first, for a score of belated members ar- rived during the night. The day’s programme attracted many local physicians, who joined freely in the discussion of papers. The morning was devoted almost entirely to essays on gynecology and debates on dis- puted details. A banquet will bé tendered the association, Visitors and local surgeons, Wednesday evening, at 7 o’clock at the Southern. were read by Drs. Howard A. jaltimore, L. S. MecMurty, Louis- } Joseph Taber Johnson, Washington; M. McGannon, Nashville; D. F. Tailey, Birmingham, and H. H. Grant, Lou'sville. The president’s address was warmiy re- ceived. He chose a subject that every thinking physician had debated in his own mind and the suggestions met general ap- probation. Dr. Johnson said: “The president is allowed great latitude in his selection of a theme for h‘s annual address. I have avoided a strictly profes- sional subject, and have thought proper to d.scuss briefly the subject of ‘The Prev- alence of Specialism, and Who Shall Be Specialists?’ “The tendency of the times is toward specialism in medicine. The science of medi- c.ne has grown to such gigantic proportions that no one mind can any longer thorough- ly master every deta.l; hence the necessity for specialism. It is desirable because it gives to the profession and the people the most intelligent consultants and the most skilled attendants. “The principal reasons for the existence of specialism are: The growth and de- velopment of medicine, the peculiar apti- tude and tastes of individuals and their opportunities for acquiring a special KkKnowl- edge and particular skill, the larger reve- nues afforded, the greater leisure’ and celebrity to those who pursue them and the demand of an improperly educated public. “T would divide-specialists into two kinds; the true and the pseudo specialists. The profession recognizes the excellence and value of the one, whilst the other derives his standing from the magic term ‘special- ist,’ which is so ill understood by the pub- lic. “The professional ualities of the true specialist may be likened to a massive pyramid, the finished capstone of which constitutes the specialty. In the case of the pseudo specialist this pyramid of learning is inverted—there is no base of knowledge —it is top-heavy and unstable, ‘The real value of a specialist depends upon his broad cultivation in the depart- ment of general medicine—a mind well stored with facts, experience derived from contact with all forms of disease and a judgment matured by observation and un- derstanding. “Tike an officer in our army or navy, he must know all that is taught the common soldier or sailor. How, then, can a tyro, a neophiti, boldly step upon the stage of specialism and claim equal rights with he who has won his spurs by hard, incessant work? ‘The present system has vantages. It many disad- perm'ts unqualified men to foist themselves upon the pen as special- ists. The public ignorantly confides itself to these poorly equipped men, in the belief that they are securing the best services the profess:on affords. “The public has been improperly educated to the tdea of specialism. Specialism means more to the lay mind than to the profes- sional. In the public eye all specialists stand upon the same footing, possessing ail the needful requirements to give the best serv- ice.

We have permitted the public to regard all specialists as superior to general practition- ers.

Colleges sh8uld recognize only the real specialists, the men of the broad knowledge that comes from wide experience. “If our spec'al societies would fix a standard and lay proper requirements ap- plications would conform to them.

Now the |}same condition of affairs is sought to be made west of Grand avenue as exists east of it. Do we need the additional car lines? No one has asked for them except the bene- ficiaries of the franchises. They want the franchises for the speculative profits there are in them. A proof of how the legislative touch affects the street railway barometer occurred when it was announced thet the ‘North and South Railway bill had passed the House, Lindell stock went down 20 points and Suburban tumbled 11 points. I contend that it is neither right in law nor morals for city legislators to give away something that does not belong to them for the benefit of a few individuals even !f there is a public demand for it. I think the time is nee for @ mass meeting on this subject, and believe it will have a salutary effect.” W. G. Boyd, Treasurer D. R.

After all, the people are to blame for electing such men to office, but the re- | sult has been to force every bus'ness man to the conclusion that he has got to devote | some time to cheaper politics as well as | business. He has either got to do this or. submit to the confiscation of his property and an abridgement of hig rights.’’ Col. Harry Guinzburg esaid that in his ‘opinion a public indignation meeting was a necessity in view of the recklessness of the Municipal Assembly, and the avarice of the corporations in getting from them whatever they wanted in the way of franchises.

They claim that by un- fair advertising and evasion of bids when made, the lettings come eventually into the hands of H. Lioyd, who seems to have achieved considerable success as a bidder for school work. Unsuccessful bidders illustrate their claim by the facts contained in the reports made by Building Commissioner Ittner and the Building Committee at the Tuesday nig‘ht meeting and the meeting in October. It is stated in the report of Oct. 12 that bids were solicited under the rules of the board for work at the Dozer, Fremont, Clifton Heights and Hodgen Schools, with the following result: , Work at the Dozier Sohool—H.
