PROVISIONAL JUDGE SIDENER RULES THE SAME AS JUDGES MURPHY AND HIRZEL. THE BOOKIES ARE JUBILANT. Breeders’ Law Declared Unconstitu- tional Upon Two Counts—Spe- cial Legislation and Multi- plicity of Ideas. Another victory for pool-rooms! In ‘the Court of Criminal Correction Thursday provisional Judge Sidener sus- tained a motion to quash, which, shorn of its legal verbiage, means that the fifteen defendants recently arrested on the charge of pool-selling and bookmaking, were dis- charged. The case was called Wednesday. Col. John I. Martin made a strong argument on behalf of the defendants, and Prosecuting Attorney Mulvihill was vigorous for the State. Judge Sidener took the matter under advisement. : Thursday morning he read-a long opin- ion. The document covered several sheets of legal paper.

B.. FICKLIN. BIG BATCH OF INDICTMENTS AGAINST HIM CHARGING HIM WITH FORGERY. TWO CASES HAD MISCARRIED. Notes on Which the Prosecution Was Based Stolen ond the Mantle of Insanity Ended the Procesdings. Special to the Post-Dispatch. CHARLESTON, IIL, Nov. 11.—The sensa- tional case of Attorney A. C. Ficklin was brought to a dramatic close this after- noon by his being sent to the Insane Asy- lum. Ficklin is the son of the late Orlando B. Ficklin, who married a sister of Alfred C. Colquitt, late Governor of Georgia. Ficklin, the elder, was well known all over the West. He was an intimate friend of both Lincoln and Douglas—was in Congress with them, as the Lincoln-Douglas debates will show. When the old gentleman died he left Al- fred C. and other sons surviving and Alfred continued the practice of law in his father’s office. Among other things he acted as broker for some rich people, lending their money out and paying the interest promptly as it be- came due, thus allaying suspicion. After a long time it was learned by the merest acci- dent that the notes for several thousand dollars were forgeries, It was known that Ficklin was drinking and he had several attacks of delirium tre- mens, but the public at the time knew noth- ing of his forgeries. Then came the discov- ery and it was found that there was sys- tem about his rascality. “A note would be signed by W. J. Smith aid R. B. Wilkins with the postoffice addresg given in a local- ity where there would ay, a W. R. Smith and R. S. Wilkins of doubted financial standing, thus deceiving the lender, who knew a William Smith and a Reuben Wil- kins ‘by common report without knowing the middle name. There were so many cases of this sort that when the Grand-jury went into the investigation last April there were thirteen indictments found against Ficklin for for- gery, cach indictment having’ several counts. The cases were postponed and Ficklin,. through rich relatives and friends, gave abundant bonds. ‘ This term of court this week the trials were begun, Ficklin being defended by a brilliant array of volunteer attorneys who had in times gone by been aided in their early struggles by Col. O. B. Ficklin, father of the defendant. The first case was proven clearly, but by a blunder of the State’s at- torney in copying the indictment, in wh'ch a note was misdescribed, on motion, Judge Henry Van Sellar of Paris ordered the jury to render a verdict of acquittal instantly, which was done. The next case was called, and while it was in progress the State’s attorney made the astounding statement that he had been robbed in open court and all of the forged notes stolen. There was a dramatic scene enacted, but no one was able to find the notes, and*the case on tMal went the way of the first. Then with eleven indictments left, the State’s attorney obtained a con- tinuance till the January term of the Cir- cult Court, in order to try to find the notes. That was on Tuesday evening and on Wednesday evening A. C. Ficki'n wag tried for insanity and taken to Kankakee. THE WEATHER FORECAST * FAIR—STATIONARY. For St. Louis and vicinity—Fair Thursday night and Friday; little change in temperature. For Missouri—-Fair Thursday night and Fri- day. For Diinois—Fair and cooler Thursday night. with freezing temperature in the central and north portion; Friday, fair. The storm center inthe Nerth has moved eastward to Lake Superior and the barometer has risen generally throughout the West, being highest in the Southwest. There were light rains and snows from the Ohio Valley northward, in the Northwest and on the west Gulf Coast. The temperatures have fallen from the Upper Mississippi Valley and Upper Lake Region west- ward and have risen elsewhere. \ GOVERNMENT FRAUDED, Biggest Investigation Started Since the Whisky Ring. LIQUOR AND TOBACCO TAXES. _—_— WITH CONNIVANCE OF OFFICIALS HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS WERE STOLEN. SCOURING NEW YORK CITY. Forty Revenue Officers From All Parts of the Country Getting Evi- dence Against the Pub- . lic Plunderers. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Nov. 11.—For the last two days forty internal revenue officers have been scouring the city to gather evidence against the large tobacco dealers, cigar manufacturers and liquor distillers. Frauds in the payment of tobacco and liquor taxes, and supposed irregularities on the part of Government officials, are be- hind’ the investigation. When the work is completed it is expect- ed that men of important standing in com- mercial and official life wih be affected. It will take a full month to complete the work, because of its magnitude. The forty officers have been brought here from distant sections of the country. Most of them have never been in New York City before.- Each of them has a record for ef- ficient services. Some of them have come from Southern States, where they have run down moonshiners, and three or four have limp right arms—a sure sign, in the reve- nue service, of a violent collision with a moonshiner. Startling discrepancies exist, it ts between the quantities of HNquors and to- baccos bought and those on which the tax had been paid, and it is said that the Gov- ernment has been defrauded in the past three or four years of hundreds of thou- said, sands of dollars. This work of the revenue officers ie said to be only the first step of the depart- the biggest inquiry made by ment since the days of the whisky ring. STEPPED ON A TORPEDO. Northwestern University Student Will Lose a Foot. CHICAGO, Ill, Nov. 1L.—M'ss Ruth Amanda Colvin of Bonus, Ill., @ student in the School of Arts at Northwestern Uni- versity, stepped on what is supposed to have been a signal torpedo on:the sidewalk in Emerson street, Evanston, last night, causing it to explode with force sufficient to almost sever the lower part of her right foot from the ankle. The injury may re- sult fatally, but at any event, Miss Colvin will lose her foot, as amputation is deemed necessary. RICHARD FOLSOM CLEVELAND. The Ex-President’s Son and Heir Has Been Named.

It had been planned all along to give the ydungster this name. CLOAKMAKERS ON STRIKE. GRAVEYARD. MEMENTOES OF WEYLER' INFAMY Scenes of Starvation in Cuba That Brand Him as the Most Inhuman Monster of the Age. a HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS ARE DEAD ; The Post-Dispatch Correspondent Describes Horrors That Must Appall Mankind and Force a Protest From the Civilized World, Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch. HAVANA, Cuba, Nov. 11.—Half a million people have lately died from hunger in the Western two-thirds of this island. The first dispatches to the Post-Dispatch concerning the wiping out of the helpless concentrados andthe pictures sent it were woefully inadequate in ex- pressing the horrible situation. Truth is, Cuba is starving—etarving almost in sight of food, because vegeta- tion in Cuba is luxuriant, but the concentrados cannot go out of the city to cul- tivate the land. Over half of those influenced by Gen. Weyler’s infamous order of concentra- tion have met death through long torture as the reward of their Joyalty to Spain. The other half will be under ground or be poor food for dogs within three months if some immensely strong action is not at once taken. Every small "Cuban town is a cesspool of disease, while the horrible sanitary conditions of the Cuban seaports threaten the United States with more damage than the cost of a war. | These things are not wild fancies; they are sad, awful, menacing facts. The photographs published in the Post-Dispatch are irrefutable proofs of ihe scenes. They are not specimens carefully selected, but were taken by the Post- Dispatch correspondent and the Post-Dispatch agents in six localities and at ran- dom. They represent the childhood in general of the miserable reconcentrados of Havana, Regla and Guanabacoa. The men, women and children shown are not the worst cases. They can stand upright, most of them. The really emaciated, those evén twice as pitiable as the ones shown, were lying upon filthy rags in dark corners and were too weak to be moved. In some cases of skeletons, almost at their whistling gasps, it was really a question as to whether the shortening of their lives by being moved into the light would not be warranted by the importance of the awful proofs that their photographs would furnish. I have seen a hundred cases, in this very Havana, 30 bad as to make those presented appear healthy and well-fed in comparison. Three hundred and fifty thotsand men, women and children is the awful num- ber that can be proven to have already perished in obedience to Weyler’s savage fiat. In the arena principally affected by this order, all Cuba west of the Jucaro Moron trocha, there were at least 900,000 persons really dependent upon agricul- ture. About 400,000 persons, principally women and children, entered the towns. Fifty per cent, or 200,000 of these are dead and the rest are rapidly dying. The death rate per thousand per day, shown by the moderate examples quoted, Is four. This means that if something is not done at once the remainder of the real reconcentrados will continue to perish at the rate of 800 per day, even if the con- ditions do not keep growing worse. There were about 200,000 persons, of'which about half were men, that pre- ferred Spanish bullets in the woods to starvation in the towns. Prom reports from the field and from recent personal observations, I estimate that of these fully 100,000 have died, including almost all the women and children. The remaining 200,000 of the half million dead were among the laboring class- es and very small merchants in the towns and cities who could neither earn money for food nor go out into the fields and orchards to get it. The following data, collected by the Post-Dispatch from towns in all parts of Cuba, show the extent of this unpardonable state of public starvation: Havana—Deaths last week were 520: a large ratio for a city of even 2,000,000 in- habitants. Melena Del Sur, Havana Province—Out of 250 concentrados the entire popula- tion of one of Melena’s outlying districts, there have died during the past six months every one but five. Santa Clara, Capital Santa Clara Province—Since Weyler’s order 3,000 out of about 5,000 have died. Camaguani, Santa Clara Province—Of 3,000 concentrados, 800 died in ninety days. Las Vueltas, Santa Clara Province—Out of 3,100, 1,500 have died in six months. Los Possos, City of Havana—With the best care in the island out of 1,000 have died in two months, all but 246. Madruga, Havana Province—Concentrados dying at the rate of 112 in fifteen days, or a daily death rate of four lives per thousand. Santo Domingo—Out of 5,000 inhabitants of all classes thirty-eight died daily. Neuva Paza—Out of about 2,850 concentrados, 260 died in the month of October. Havana, Pinar Del Rio, Matanzas, Santa Clara, Manzanillo and Santiago cities show, by Spanish official figures, 67,000 deaths. Of these three-fourths were con- centrados. As nearly as can be estimated the total number of such was 15,000, the mass of the concentration of the pacificos having been in the small towns, the In- habitants of each county going to its county seat. Reliable statistics are very hard to obtain, as much on account of the very incomplete manner in which the Spanish officials conduct them as by the hin- drances which are naturally and officially thrown about this species of investi. gation. From a vast mass of information the figures quoted have been chosen only for A General War on Freedman Bros. of New York.

In one corner was a dead body, a mere skeleton of a woman, whose rigid bones of arms clasped tightly a little baby, still alive. A few feet away was the awful contrast of a still breathing female system of bones, with a dead baby on her bosom. There were corpses lying un- coffined but happy in release from months of the awful torture of biting hunger. Women and children packed the upper story. There were elghty-two breaths polluting a room 80x40x12 feet. Most of the inmates had had no shelter at all before and some were trying to cleanse themselves. There were two tin basins for baths, and their use, unscreened by anything, attracted no notice whatever. Guanabacoa presents a daily scene of death. The dead are picked up every day at early morning. ‘There is plenty of room in the town hospital, but no con- centrados are admitted. Under Spanish auspices an amateur performance. re- alized $1,000 for charity. About $100 of it reached the poor. Two meals of the cheapest food were served, a tin cupful to each applicant. In common with all the towns the death returns are here greatly falsified. Starvation is forbidden as a cause of death and the numbers are much under- stated, I am able to prove, of Guanabacoa. The civil register shows seventy- three deaths in fifteen days. During that period the unsuspicious eemetery keeper admitted that he buried daily at least fifteen. This would be 225 instead of seventy-three for the time mentioned, The man told the truth, for I-saw the trench for that day’s dead, and the old bones which had been thrown out of it to make room for the new skeletons just perished near the town, In the Zona de Cultivo, where there was very: little visible cultivation of food, I saw a family of eight persons, only half of whom could stand upright. A girl, perhaps 18 years of age, lay on a sack upon the filthy earthen floor, with a 6-months-old baby. Within the palm-bark partition lay the mother and an- other little framework of tiny bones, with yellow skin stretched over it, in the shape of a small] child. Near by in the small, foul and dark room, lay two boys, almost dead. The father was a road-mender. With one child, he begs about enough to make one quart of soup a day, and this has fed eight per- sons for months. No decent dog would have eaten the mess, which bubbled over a tiny fire. Another man came dragging along the white-hot road with two squashes. He was happy and said his wife, himselfand twochildren would dine well that day. conditions are much better than anywhere else. Cattle have been arriving from Florida and there is still money for some relief for the hun- gry. As a result the starving ones of the near-by towns flocked here in such numbers that the Mayor of the city demanded of the Governor of the Province that they be returned to their miserable, starving places. In the city are sev- eral public buildings and hospitals giving some care to the weaker of the con- centrados, These cannot go about tobeg and die like rats upon the coarse rations served them by the city authorities. Havana's condition is a great menace to the health in the United Statch by yellow fever alone; directly traced to Havana. To-day the conditions here are actual nurseries of all kinds of epidemics. Gen. Pando has assured the Post-Dispatch that the starving pacificos will be at once fed upon dry meat, corn-meal, rice, coffee and the regular soldier’s rations. This may save, perhaps, a half of the remaining concentrados of Weyler’s awful and foolish proclamation: But the others are too weakened to eat solid food and live. There are at least 100,000 dying, eyes turned hungrily toward the States. Their owners suffer from no fault of theirs. They were loyal. were obedient. In Havana the United They If the Red Cross Society is more than a society fad, or if there is any human- ity left in the United States, right here is the place to show it. The poor need medicines, proper food and attendance, and none of these is even hinted at even by the new and humane Spanish Governor-General.

NEW YORK, Nov. 11.—The trial of Mar- tin Thorn, which has been in progress the last three days in Queens County Court of Oyer and Terminer at Long Island City, may be discontinued for an indefinite period, ow- ing to the illness of Juror Magnus Larsen. When court adjourned yesterday until 9:30 this morning the doctors who examined the juror thought he was only suffering from a slight stomach trouble and would be able to attend court to-day. After Larsen, with the other jurors, ar- rived at the Garden City Hotel last night, it was discovered that Mr. Larsen was alf- flicted with appendicitis, and his condition is so serious that physicians who are at- tending him will not allow him to leave his bed. This being the case the Sheriff did not bring up the other eleven jurors te-day and reported the facts to the district attorney. Several hundred men and women assem- bled in the court-room to-day, expecting to hear Martin Thorn refute the testimony which Mrs. Nack gave so dramatically yes- terday, were therefore doomed to disap- pointment., Capt. Methven brought Thorn into the court-room, the prisoner looking none the worse for his ordeal of yesterday. Judge Smith opened court a few. minutes later and District Attorney Youngs informed him of the serous condition of Juror Lar- sen, and, with the consent of the lawyers on both sides, Judge Smith adjourned court until 9:30 to-morrow. The sickness of Larsen brought up 4 discussion among those interested 4s to what would be done in case the juror’s ill- ness would be protracted. “Would the people go on with the case with eleven jurors?” was asked. Lawyer William F. Howe, counsel for Thorn, said an Italian nasned Cancemi had killed a policeman in Broome street, New York, ‘n 1857, and one of the jurors falling sick the lawyers agreed to proceed with eleven jurors. Cancemi was convicted and on appeal the Court of Appeals ruled that neither counsel for the people nor prisoner could waive the constitutional rights of the accused man, which called for a trial by a jury of twelve men instead of eleven. — District Attorney Youngs was asked whether a new trial woulda be asked, and whether, in the event of the death of a juror, he would press for a new jury and proceed with the case during the present term, He replied that he would have to con- sult with his associates before answering the question. “How long would the term last and how jong would it be necessary to wait for the recovery of Larsen?’ To these questions Mr, Youngs replied: “Both of ‘hese matters are in the discre- ion of the Court.” After court adjourned Mr. Howe and Mr. Moss had a brief taik with their client, Thorn. before he was taken back to his cell. Later Mr. Howe outlined his proposed plan of defense which he has been c adopt owing to the confession f Nack: : “Thorn Will take the stand to-morrow,”’ he said. ‘He will testify that the murder was conceived and plotted and planned by Mrs. Nack. We shall prove that she wanted to get rid of Guldensuppe in order that Thorn might take his place. Thorn will state that when he got into the cottage at Woodside on June 2 he found that Mrs, Nack had shot Guldensuppe, and that it was she who said: “I have killed h'm.”’ In other words, Thorn is going to tell the whole truth about it—absolutely the whole truih,” said Mr. Howe, with a dramatic esture, “Will Thorn testify that Mrs. Nack took away the head or will he state that it was he, himself, who threw it into the river?’’ Mr. Howe was asked, The big lawyer hesitated for a moment and then replied: “Wait till we put Thorn on the stand to-morrow. He will] tell about it ’* Lawyer Moss, who Is associated with Mr. Howe in the defense of Thorn, was asked if, in the case of a new trial be'ng ordered the defense would accept an offer from the good reput ation * a gumbler has a nerian roles, which he interpreted with high "t and great feeling. pham nukes Symphony concert Mr. Bis. ner’s “Han | the great aria from Marsch- Only With.

Miles Tells of Mrs. Nack’s Con- fession to Him. NEW YORK, Nev. 11.—Rev. R. H. P. Miles, pastor of the First Presbyterian Church of Ravenswood, L. I., to whom it is alleged Mrs. Nack made her confess.on, é6aid that he had not attempted to work on the woman’s feélings, as has been al- leged. Mr, Miles said that he began to visit the jail at the request of the jail paysician, who thought that he could do Mrs. Nack good. Mr. Miles said that dur- ing his first few visits to the jail Mrs. Nack ridiculed his religion, but that he kept on preaching in the jall corr dor. During the sermon Sunday Mr. Miles said he noticed Mrs. Nack was greatiy agi- tated and was crying. and when he had finished, he says, Mrs. Nack came to him and told him that she wanted to confess ! the murder. Mr. Miles says he told her | that he did not care to hear the confes- | sion, but told her to pray to the Lord. She got down on her knees and prayed, and | later she told him ‘that the prayer had | greatly relieved her, and that a great load had been lifted from her mind. He then left her without hearing the confession. He gays that on Tuesday Mra»-Nack sent for him, and that when he arrived at th: jail she confessed the crime to him in all its details.

Burnham left on a late train for the East to nurse her THE PEOPLE ARE AROUSED — Mass Meeting Wanted With Every Ward Represented. ALL TAXPAYERS INTERESTED. FRANCHISE GRABBING MUST BE STOPPED BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE. _—— a THE CIVIC FEDERATION IDEA. Waiting to Make a Fight Under the Julian Law Is Merely Lend- ing Aid and Comfort to the Grabbers. The movement for a public indignation meeting to protest against the wholesale street railway grabs is daily gathering mo- mentum. The purpose ie to strangle them in their incipiency if the city legislators can be prevailed upon to heed the demands of their constituents, The suggestions of a number of repre- sentative men in Wednesday’s Post-Dis- patch that the city organize just as the Cabanne district residents are organiz.ng and make common issue against not only the Cabanne Place road, but the Hamilton and Baden, the North and South octopus and other kindred: measures, meets with genuine approval of property owners throughout the city. Al Shapleigh, who, as Chairman of the Delmar Avenue Improvement Association, has been active in consolidat.ng the oppo- sition to the Cabanne place measure, sa.d Thursday: ‘‘A public méeting is the thing, representing the city from Baden to Ca- rondelet, se much the better. The issue that oonfronts property owners is not con- fined to the Cabanne district by any means, and it should not be put on the narrow ground that Delmar, Maple, Fountain ave- nues and Raymond place are appealing to the rest of the city to come to their re- lief. I believe those determined people out there will be able to take care of them- slves, but if the franchise grabbers are defeated in Cabanne they will seek other fields. If the whole city rises up it will settle this proposition. The fact is, public resistance to franchise grabs has been de- layed too long. It is far easier, less ex- pensive and more regular to fight such schemes at their inception than it ig to carry them into the courts: “IT see the Civic Federation proposes to wait unt] the franchises are granted and then make a test of the Julian law. I presume the railway companies wil] hear- tily second such @ programme. A fight in the courts ig to their liking, for while the lawyers are bringing their finesse into play, the road is being bu_It and dividend earn- ing has begun, so as to keep up the ex- penses of the suit. We must not permit such an advantage, but rise up in maeés meetings and fight them inch by inch,”’ Paul F, Coste, President of the School Board, said: ‘I have not had the time to give this matter as much attention gener- ally as I would like, but I have taken up the proposed Cabanne route place, discussed with the Board, and will to-day appoint a committee to co-operate with the citizens who are engaged in the laudable under- taking of defeating that measure. If that line runs on Maple avenue it will have a double track right in front of Dozier School. That would work irreparable in- jury to that property, but aside from pro- tecting the city’s schoo) property we have a& much more sacred duty, and that is to protect the lives and limbs of children who attend the schools. We have too many street car lines already alongside our school buildings. No street car tracks should be permitted nearer than a block of a school. Whatever means citizens decide on to fight this special railway bill or any other that menaces schoo! property will re- ceive the heartiest co-operation of myself and colleagues.”’ Attorney G. A. Finkelnburg said: “As a general proposition, I think we have enough street railway facilities, I have been away from home for several weeks, and am not well enough “oss dna to talk on this latest controversy etween the taxpayers and franchise seekers.”’ Attorney James C. Jones said: “We, out in the Cabanne Place district, have in- sisted from the first that the fight we are making extends beyond a local question, and the proper way to deal with it is ina representative public meeting, that would command and compel attention from the Municipal Assembly. While defeat before that body will by no means exhaust our resistance, that ‘s the proper place in which the people should commence the fight. “T have no patience with the attitude of the Civic Federation in this matter. If that select coterie of reformers mean busi- ness they would be taking the initiative in this contest on behalf of the people. Yet, in the face of a popular uprising against these iniquitous schemes, such ae the Civic Federation would make people believe it is going to stamp out, it announces that it will come to the people’s rescue when the franchise grabbers have all they want, and fight them in court on an unadjudicated statute which they know the City Counselor has solemnly pronounced unconstitutional. They could not have offered more aid and comfort to the ajgost railways than to have announced that they were preparing to fight them with the Julian law.” FOR A TWO WEEKS’ HUNT. Party to Leave for Southeast Missouri on Nov. 24. Nat Wetzel, the Third street Commission man, will take a large party off on a two weeks hunt for deer and turkeys in South- east Missouri.

Wetzel is not the President of that con- cern and in no way connected with it. Mr. Roettger’s protest is provoked by a mistake made in an article in the Sunday Post-Dis- patch, in which Mr. Wetzel was mentioned as F resident of the St. Louis Poultry and Game Co., instead of President of the West- ern Poultry and Game Co. Mr. Roettger says: + Bg Of the anemone ridiculous in 7 e inte atts and siren’ gent dealers of this “Any game dealer in St. Louis will bear us out in the assertion that the statement of the amount of game sent to this market is woefully exaggerated, especially so as re- gards the number of deer, pheasants, etc “Or course it is Known that St. ‘Louis is one of the greatest game centers of the United States, but that there is a firm here that have ninety hunters on their staff should be proven before dished up for the public as truthful. We do not understand how there can be anybody shooting uail thirty days before the season opens and eep it up thirty to sixty days after the season closes, in the face of the law.”’ CASE OF JAMES SCALES.

St. Louis Coroner Covered Himself With Glory in the Nation. Coroner Wait and his party of sporting politicians returned from their hunting ex- cursion to the Indian Territory Thursday morning, laden with trophies of the chase. The hunters camped near Sapulpa. The first day they hired a half4preed guide. He lived so high that day that when the news was splead throughout the neighborhood, the camp Was overrun with greasy Indians and hait-orecds, all anxious to volunteer their services as guides to the party and incidentully partake of the hospitality of the sportsmen, The visitors became so obnoxious at length that the members of the hunting eek held a pow-wow and decided to use eroic measures. Dr. Wait bribed his guide to induce the gang of half-breeds to visit the camp the next day and start a sham tight among themselves. he following day a dozen Indians and half-breeds, armed with shot guns and rifles, straggled into camp and proceeded to make themselves at home. Henry Muel- ler, the South St. Louis heavy hauler, who had been delegated to act as spokesman, was coer e. to tell them to vamoose, when Crooked Buck and Big Moose, two —— half-breeds, suddenly started a quar- rel, Both broke for their shot guns, and a second later the entire gang was mixed up in a tangled mass, struggling. shouting, cursing and flourishing guas and revolvers. Mueiler took to the woods and the rest of the party sought refuge under the tents. Dr. Wait ran up to the struggling mob, seized Big Moose by the nape of the neck and the slack of his jeans and fired him out of camp. Then he returned, grabbed Crooked Buck by the ear, led him to Nhe edge of the woods, gave him a kick and sent him to join Big Moose. The other com- batants did not wait for the doughty Cor- oner’s rturn, but fled precipitately. Dr. Wait was hailed as a mighty hero by his companions, who are not yet aware of the joke he played on them. The party brought back a wagon load of game, and an American eagle, brought down Dr. Wait.

It is the custom to call the chrysan- | themum a “fad.” But a visit to this year’s flower show ought to convince any one that there is much real beauty in this remarkable flower. The _ towsly, tangled variety, of monstrous size, has, 8 | | } ' largely given place to flowers that are) as perfect in form and as varied in col- or as dahlias, which are of all flowers, | when well grown, thé most perfect in shape. The big flower is still a favorite, but it has been so improved as to please as Well as astonish. There is a great oportunity for florists | to bring out varieties of small chrysan- | themums. The small, single, perfectly | shaped flower, in the richest colors, would be a novelty and would be likely to be- come as popular as the big blossom that has had such a run. The annual show of chrysanthemums proves that these flowers are of easy cul- _ttre in this part of the country. This is fortunate. Lut why are they not more ‘cultivated around the people’s homes? The appearance of the residence districts in the fall months could be greatly im- proved if such easily grown flowers were cultivated in large quantities in yards and gardens. This exhibition of perfect flowers, after the long dry spell, proves that St. Louis florists are second to none in the coun- try. It shows what can be done by care and intelligent work. rr, eee pee eee With every street a street rallway bed, St. Louis would become a convention elty for its own cripples. —— ¢ — PHILADELPHIA @AS WORKS. The Philelelphia Common Council has passed the worst of several proposed or- | dinances for leasing the city Gas Works. It has deliberately tabled the Baker Proposition, which would have given the|! efty $10,000,009, and passed the ordinance demanded by the Addicks C which means nothing for the citizens but costly gas. It is impossible to conclude that bribery has not been at work Pither the Councilmen voting for the Aa- dicks lease are imbeciles or they are traitors to their city. . Director Thompson of the Gas Works | insists that the works have been suc- cessful and profitable and that this can | be proved. This betne 80, there is no excuse for making any Jease. The mi. | nority report of the Council Committee | to investigate the condition and report on the proposed lease states that— In conjunction with the majority of the committer, we have given careful consider. ation to the said ordinance; but utterly dis- agree with the report of the sala majority, having arrived at the conclusion that the lease therein contained would be greatly to the detriment of the city of Philadelphia, in derogation of the rights and interests of ite eftizens, and {ts approval by these Coun. clis would be an act of folly worthy to be fanked with “Esau’s sale of his birthright for a Mess of pottace,”” without even the exouse of apparent necessity to justify jt.

ROENTGEN RAYS IN COURT. Before a Jury. NEW YORK, Nov. 11.—X-rays were used in court for the first time in this country in a damage suit before a jury in the son, 9 years old, was subjected to X-ray examination for several minutes. He was injured on Christmas night, 18%, by being thrown from a street car. The plaintiff contends that the head of the left humerus bone was fractured by the boy’s fall from the car when the conductor threw him off. A dynamo was placed in front of the jury box and near the lawyers’ tables and a large Crooks tube was used. Soon after the case was commenced young Hutohin- son’s jacket and outside shirt were re- moved. The arms and shoulders were ex- posed. Before the examination the question as to whether any possible injury would result from the examination was discussed. J. Stewart Ross, who represents the plaintiff, insisted that a limit as to the time of the examination should be set. It was decided that it should be three minutes. When the boy took his seat with his left shoulder about six inches from the Crooks tube he smiled at the jury and the physicians and lawyers. Dr. William J. Morton looked at the boy’s left shoujder through a fluoroscope, and Judge Johnson, who presided at the trial, stood up and timed the proceeding. Dr. George I. Fowler then took the fluoro- scope and looked at the boy’s left arm and shoulder until time was called. Dr. Mor- ton and Dr. Fowler will tell on the stand the result of the examination. They are witnesses for the defense. Previous to that in court there had been X-ray examinations of Mutchinson’s left shoulder and arm in a Brooklyn laboratory. Photographs of the bones of the shoulder and arm had been taken. These photo- graphs were in the possession of the plain- tiff. The examinations were made to show the result of the fractures. SIR ROBERT PEEL BEGS OFF. > |He Takes Back Everything He Said | and Will Not: Fight. | PARIS, Nov, 11.—Sir Robert Peel, the de- | generate grandson of the great man of that name, did not fight his duel with the Ital- ian Duke Clement de Cirella. Sir Robert's seconds here apologized fully and humbly to the Count, Sir Robert takes back his in- sults and the whole affair has been squared. ‘Sir Robert had been talking about the Dreyfus case and heard that the Itallan taken exceptions to some things ‘he | said, so Sir Robert proceeded to write ' insulting letters to the Duke, who prompt- ly challenged him. After the seconds were ' chosen Sir Robert says he learned that the | Duke had not said what he was credited i with saying, so he did not mean what he wrote. Sir Robert's record is not the most sa- vory in the world, MURDER NOW SUSPECTED. ee ‘Death of George Wills to Be Investi- gated With Care. | Special to the Post-Dispatch, field. ty, Illinois. His body was so badly decom- posed that it, was hardly recognizable. and after a hasty exarmifiation brought in the verdict that he came to his death by } Causes unknown to the jury. It was gen- | erally thought his death Was caused by an | overdose of medicine which contained large | quantities of arsenic. Jie was generaliy and had no know? enemies, and foul] | play was not suspected. During the last _few days it has been learned that the de- ceased had quite a sum of money when he left home, and when found he had none. it has also developed that he had an alter- cation with a ne'ghbor a few days before his death.

The request is, of course, no surprise to you, and I will be obliged to you if will confirm in writing what you said to me about it. Yours truly, “WILLIAM A, VINCENT.” “Chicago, Nov. 10.—Hon,.

He was even more nervous than on the first day of his trial. As soon as Thomaschuetz took his seat in front of the bar his body swayed vio- tentiy from one side of the chair to the other. A Deputy Sheriff remains beside Thom- aschuetg constantly, as an outbreak is mo- mentarily fearéd. -Frequently the prisoner starts as if to rise from his chair. One of the most interested parties to the trial is A. H. Rausch, father of the murdered girl. The old man gave his tes- timony Wednesday, and Thursday he sat in the court-room, craning his neck to hear every wurd of the evidence. Rausch is relentless in the prosecution, The dead girl was his favorite child. Attorneys Robertson and Staubus. for the defense, eypect to acquit their client on the plea of emotional insanity. “The report that we allege that Anna Rausch died from X-ray eperiments made by the doctors, is false,” gaid Attorney Roberteon to a Post-Dispatch reporter. The first witness Thursday was Frank Zuercher of 2314 Scott avenue. Z¥ercher knew the Rausch family intt- mately and heard Anna Rausch’s dying Statement. Attorney Robertson, for the defendant, objected to this evidence on the ground that Anna Rausch did not know she was Roing to die. The jury was retired and after lengthy argument, Judge Zachritz said he would rule on the objection later, and for the peesens the evidence in question would not e admitted. Had Zuercher been perm'tted he would have repeated a statement said to have been made by Anha Rausch shortly be- fore her death, in which she is alleged to have said that Thomaschuetz sought to accomplish her ruin on the evening of the tragedy. The story is that Thomaschuetz became enraged because the girl resented his advances. All discussion on this phase of the case was kept from the jury. K. G. Bellairs testified that Thomaschuetz said that he shot Annie Rausch after con- templating the deed for severally days be- cause she refused to marry him. Thoma- schuetz further told witness that he was crazy just like Duestrow was when the lat- ter killed his wife and child. Sylvester Kilcullen and Perry Ellis testi- fled substantially to the same facts, and regarded the defendant as sane.

_ THURSDAY—ST. LOUIS 1897. cot 10 CREED THAT HE HAS FORFEITED TO DAN. HIS SIDE OF THE QUESTION. He Will Lose His Deposit Only in the Event of His Defeat by Smith. A few days ago Dan Creedon declared that Kid McCoy had really forfeited $1,000 to him. ° Creedon stated then that when he and McCoy put up $1,000 deposit each for their coming fight it was understood that that amount should be forfeited in the event of their making a match with anyone else be- fore their own had been disposed of. So when McCoy signed to meet Mysterious Billy Smith at Chicago this week, Crecdon, although not cla.ming the forfeit from Mc- Coy, declared that the batter had really broken his agreement and should by rights forfeit the money to him. Creedon did not insist on the forfeit, however, but simply mentioned the action of McCoy as something he breach ef faith on the latter’s part. McCoy, who is in training at Dayton, when told of Creedon’s claim, eaid: “I do not intend to have any controversy with Creedon through the newspapers, but when he speaks of claiming my forfeit money he is surely talking through his hat. Accord- ing to our articles signed either one can engage in a contest, but if either one should lose, why, the match would be de- elared off, and the one losing would forteit to the other.” McCoy further said: “I have not lost yet, and I assure Mr. Creedon that I do not in- tend to. I will be on hand when time is called for our match, and I will give a good account of myseif.”’ On Friday night McCoy will try and stop George La Blanche, the Marine, in four rounds, and Harry B. Ruble, a heavy- weieht, of Hamilton, in:four rounds. The contest will be held at the Grand Oper- House in Dayton, and besides the above two contests Con Riley, the heavy-weight pugli- ist, will try and stop a heavy-weight of the name of Brooks. Homer Selby, a brother to the Kid, will also go on with Kid Croft. Arthur Wenz, a light-weight of Middlexown, will also go on with Jack Williams. McCoy is in the pink: of condition, and ready to go on at any time with Creedon. Doc Payne of Cleveland, assisted by Ho- mer Selby and Con Riley, are training Mc- Coy for his bout with Billy Smith, which takes place in Chicago.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. _ PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Nov. 11.—The air ‘is again full of rumors of big deals, in which | | before the | Tracy will ref- Camerferd and E.. Red, Wolford, sun. |. | St. Louis figures conspicuously. President Andrew Freedman had another talk with Catcher Mike Grady of St. Louis, and apparently arranged terms with that piayer. He then sought out Pres.dent Von der Ahe and broached the subject of Grady’s release. The St. Louis magnate wanted $5,000 for his catcher, but this was too much for the New Yorker, who offered $1,500 less for the catcher’s services. Von der Ahe re- fused to budge from his price. z Freedman asked for a price for Grady and Third Baseman Hartman, and the fig- ures that were asked nearly staggered the New York's club president. “Der Poss Bresident” piaced the sum at $10,000, just double the price he asked for Grady. Freedman vine ays out George Davis and a confab followed. He then returned to Von der Ahe and offered Parke Wilson, Jim Donnelly, Ducky Holmes and Mike Sul- livan for Grady and Hartman. This deaJ was refused by Von der Ahe, and Freedman suggested Pitcher Doheny and Felder Hiolmes for Taylor and Grady, but Von der Ahe declined. Philadelphia and St. Louis figured in a big deal, in which the local club gave more than it received. Von der Ahe and Col. John I, Rogers got together on an exchange among themselves. Their talk lasted nearly two hours, and at its conclusion it was announced that Phila- Ill-health is the Sa ‘‘Sword ef Damecles”’ “i.a that hangs suspended MH by a siender thread a shove the heads of ms theusands of men.

Now an edi- on, in Reavy paper covers, is te be given away to whuever wi cent © pay GAADY AND HARTMAN, delphia received Pitcher Donahue, stop Monte Cross and Catcher Douglas for Pitcher Taylor, Catcher Clements, Outfield- er Dowd and Utility Man Lave Cross, The consensus of opinion among the base ball men was that Philadelphia had received three good men, but had parted with-four better. There are two sides to every story, and while some will praise the Philadelphia management for th's swap, others will con- demn it. It is hard to see, however, where Philadelphia can lose anything in the trans- action, save by the letting go of Lave Cross, He was the only one of the quartette who of late has been any credit to himself or any worth to the team. Clements was dissatisfied with this city, although it is his home. He is still a gocd catcher; some say none better. With him, however, it appears to have been the case of a player playing too long with one club. For the last three seasons Taylor has been going from bad to worse. No one questions his ability when he fee's like pitching, but the management, having tried all kinds of ways to manage him, finally had to give up In disgust. The same can be said of Dowd. He may be the great player it was sa'd he was when he came to Philadelphia last summer, but he never showed it here, Lave Cross’ going away will doubtless causé genuine regret among those who ap- preciate @ hard-working, earnest bal! play- er. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said of the others. Louisville is after Second Baseman Hall- man of St. Louis, but the price asked for him is too high at present to effect _a deal. Cincinnati has traded Catehers Schriver and Gray, Pitcher Rhines ‘and Outfielder McCarthy to Pittsburg for Pitcher Hawley and Outfielder Elmer Smith. t is under- stood that the deal was consummated a couple of days ago, but has been kept quiet until te-night. Nothing much was done here yesterday at the League meet'ng, save the swapping of players. No conclusion was reached on the minor league problem. The annual banquet waa given the visit- ing base ball men at the Hotel Bellvue last night. To-day will be devoted to a carriage drive through Fairmount Park and to a general sight-seeing, which is part of the entertainment provided for the vis tors by Messrs. Reach and Rogers of the Phil- adelphia Club. -. COURSING IN CALIFORNIA. The Favorites Won in Nearly All Races Run at the Merced Meet. MERCED, Cal., Nov. 11.—A large crowd Was present at yesterday’s dog races.

It was the famous “gelar plexus” blew with which Fitzssimmens k Jim Corbett, which did the — wee: The reund opened with Greene forcing the ace. After several) exchanges in which honors were even, Greene forced Ziegler to a corner and « evteg | with his left for the biew landed clean and . Short- r i ia. had reached five when Ziegler made a des- perate effort to come to his feet. The effort was too much for him, however, and, grasp- ing the ropes and pulling himself to his knees, he collapsed and fell on his face and was counted out. THE JUNIOR LEAGUE. Plenty of Its Players Good Enough for the Senior League. The Junior Foot Ball League will hold its semi-monthly meeting this evening at its headquarters, 2610 Cass avenue. The representatives of the different clubs are requested to be present. Capt. Hines°of the Griffins says the ra‘n last Sunday eaved the Thistles from an- other defeat All the Junior that were to be played last Sunday will be played on + penkagiving Day, if all clubs are agree- able. “Noisy Dan” Sullivan is a wonder at playing foot ball. The Griffins are afraid that Flood will throw his hook out for him before long. [f any the managers of the different clubs -n any of the leagues are looking for players they should take a walk up to Griffin’e Park and watch some of the youngsters perform. Such players as Bar- rett, Wilcox, Woods, Ryan, Bresnahan and Ahern would strengthen any team. —_——_---9o ---— TOD IS RIGHT IN IT. games Jockey Sloane Is in Winning Form in England Just Now.

Secret Service Operator Murphy of the United States Treasury Department has been unable to locate the source of supply of the counterfeit silver dollars that are being freely circulated in St. Louis. Two of the spurieus coins were received at the Sub-Treasury Wednesday. The coins are so perfect a counterfeit that they passed through the National Bank of Com- merce and Barr’s dry goods store without detection, The counterfeit {s an imitation of the 1888 dollar made at the New Orleans mint. It has more silver in it than does the genuine dollar, and has the right rimg and feel. The only way it can be detected is by the milling on the inside rim and by the let- ters. The milling is only about one-half as thick as on the genuine dollar and the let- ters are larger and stand out plainer. Mr. Murphy does not think the dollars are made in St. Louis, but are sent here for distribution. Catarrh Mrs. Josephine Polhill, of Due West, 8.

This will be American Beauty Night at the Flower Show. Queen Chrysanthemum will graciously step from her throne and give way to the incomparable red flowers. Competition is brisk, and the display of American beauties that can be seen at the Flower Show is unrivaled. Never were more perfect flowera shown, and the com- mittee who will announce the awards will have a difficult task in deciding who shall have the honor of the blue ribbon. Besides the prizes offered by the Florists’ Club, there are half a dozen special prizes for the best display of American Beauties. The displays by W. W. Coles of Kokomo Ind., Mr. Heller of New Castle, Ind., and by Yeung & Co. and Ellison & Tesson are gorgeous. The florists all have their prize entries on the same table on the second floor. The main prize is for the best bunch of elghteen roses. The specimens exhibited show what cueeeresion and intelligent study will pro- uce Some of the stems are more than five feet long. The leaves are large and per- fectly formed and the stems are so green and smooth that many people were heard to suggest that they were artificial. Though the flowers are as large as one’s double fist, they retain the beautiful shade of red and daintiness that has made the Beauty the queen of all roses. Carnations will also be on drese parade to-night, as will the mgnonette and dainty little violet. The offerings are numerous and these exhibits will attract much at- tention. The attendance Wednesday was most sat- isfactory, more than 2,500 persons viewing the flowers. This is an improvement over the largest day last year. To-night the attendance is expected to be stil) larger.

LOUIS BURNED NEAR LEW- ISPORT, KY. —_—---——— NO FATALITIES REPORTED. The Accident Caused by a Box Car Be- ing Blown on the Track and the Loss Is Heavy. —————- LOUISVILLE. Ky., Nov. 11.—A passenger train on the Louisville, Henderson & SBt. T.ouls road, which left St. Louis last even- ing and-which was due in this city at 7:39 o'clock this morning, was derailed and en- tirely consumed by fire at 4 o’clock this morning near Lewisport, ninety miles from Louisville and 2238 mileg from St. i/0Uls. No lives were lost and so far as is known mo one was seriously injured. Cie accident is attributable to a freak of the high wind last night, which overturned @ box car standing on the Lewisport siding. The car fell directly across the main track and near a sharp curve. It was hot seen py the engineer of the passenger train until it was too late to stop his engine and the train crashed through the obstruction, over- combina- turning the engine and tender and tion car. The steve in the combination car cet fire to inflammable matter in the car and before the trainmen could remove the ear the other coaches, also sleeper and day coach, were totaliy destroyed, in addition to a combination car in which were the smoker and baggrage. the passengers had plenty of time to escape, and Traffic Manager Hill, who was on the ill-fated train, wires that aside from a few bruses, no one was injured. The loss will be heavy. Although the wreck occurred early in the morning, Charles Jones, the Western Passenger Raent of the Louisville, Hender- eon & Evansville Railroad, whicg is a branch of the Louisville & Nashville, had not heard of it at 2 o’clock Thursdiy after- noon. lle says had-any St. Louis passepgers on the train been killed or injured the office ere would have been not'fied. With no cusualties from it the wreck would prob- abiy be reported to the Louisville offices, There were four or five through passen- fers to Louisviile on No. 46, which left St. i tuis at 8:55 o’clock Wedné@sday evening.

TO MARRY A WEALTHY GIRL. — eee He Is the Third Member to Be Voted Out of the Organ- ization, When the Happy Home Protective Asso- ciation meets the next time President W. H. Kane will bring up the case of Lloyd Rick- art and suggest that he be expeiled. The offense charged against Mr. Rickart has not yet been committed, but as his guilt is only a matter of a few weeks the associa- tion intends to lose no time in acting. There is only one offense known to the Happy Home Protective Association and its punishment is expulsion. To marry a girl with money, real estate“or diamonds consti- tutes the offense. As its name implies the object of the asso- ciation is to provide happy homes for all marriageable young women who have noth- ing to recommend them except good 1o0oKs, good temper,liovable disposition and a yearn- ing for domesticity. “Rickart is the pride of the association,”’ explained Mr. Kane to a Post-Dispatch re- perter Thursday. ‘‘He is one of those hair-parted-in-the-middie lads, and he’s go- ing to marry a girl in the West End who owns some real estate. That bars Rickari. “I didn’t think he'd go back -on the prin- ciples of our association, but h‘s engage- ment is announced. We investigated the financial standing of the young woman, and we find that Lloyd has violated our rules. “But the association is not tottering.

It was started last January—not very long ago, but long enough for it to have made a place for itself in 100,000 of the best homes of the country. There is something about successes that interests us. The successful man, the successful enterprise, the successful novel, the successful play—all these appeal to us. We instinctively turn away from ‘‘frosts.’’ The thing that the pedple want and will have is the thing we want and will have if we can get it. We want to read the book that everybody is reading; we want to read the magazine that everybody is reading—our friends are reading. We like to know why this thing or that or the other is a success—what it has about it that makes it a success. ’ | PO Gencedeces 1014 Lafayette av | The Puritan for November will show you why it is:. success. Itis a great issue. 48 large quarto pages, rich in i lustration, rich in the variety and excellence of its contents. Don’t fail to get it.

Boyle’ and “Dr. Joseph Boyle.”’ and they both use the same kind of atationery. Neither of the Boyles give their address, except ‘‘city.”’ Mrs. Alice Van B'bber examined the two letters. She knows only one of the Boyles, and that one is the “‘doctor,’’ and she says she knows he is the one who lived at 1i17il Pivision street Mrs. Van Bibber denied many of the statements made in the letters and re- marked that she could detect the penman- ehip of her erswhile lover in both of them. THE MARKETS. — ST. LOUIS, Nov. 11. There was nothing new from Argentine to-day in regard to the crop situation and nothing worthy of consideration may be expected for several days, but Liverpool is evidently over its scare. Ant- werp cables state that the frost damage is very light, but it is too early to determine the extent. Paris cables, however, estimate the damage at from 15 to 20 per cent. The Government crop report for November sug- gests a crop of 1,900,000,000 bushels as compared with 1,828,000,000 suggested In October report, and is considered bearish. The condition is estimated at 23.7 per cent. The preliminary estimate last year was 27,3 and in 1895 it was 26.2. The aver- age per cent of quality was 86.3 as compared with 88.4 in 1896 and 82.3 in 1895. Favorable conditions for fall sowing in most of the European countries, and the condition of the crops, so far as sown, is likewise favorable.

Liverpool traders had apparently recovered from their scare over the reports of damage by frost in Argentine concerning which there were plenty of denials, and some futures in that mar- ket showed us much as 14d decline at the opening here. The Price Current in its weekly crop sum- mary said that rains had decidedly improved the crop situation in a large portion of the drought region, and with favorable temperature there had been some renewal.of seeding. Northwest receipts were 970 cars, as compared with 1,037 last week and 451 a year ago. Local receipts were 136 cars. Yesterday's export sales at all points amounted to over a million Dnshels. A cold wave was es peg coming from the northwest. This steadied the market a little, but only for a short time. But little support was given and prices sagged off again. May opened at S9%@R9%e, ad- vanced to 9#0@D01ic, then slowly declined to 80%ce. It reacted later to &80%c. Corn was slow and weak on the Government crop report, which made the crop considerably larger than expected. The Price Current said it was inconsistently high. Receipts—307 cars— were May opened '44i5¢ lower declined under liquidation to at 80@S0\%c, and QTL. Oats were quiet and weak following the break in wheat and corn. teceipts amounted to 38? cars. May opened 4%@\%c lower at 214%@21%¢e, and sold mostly at the lower fraction. Provisions were du!! but firm. Hog prices were steady. Packers were bidders for lard.

C., Nov. 11.—charles Parsons, President of the State Bank of St. Louis, has submitted his views on cur- rency reform to the Monetary Commission by request. He favors the redempt;i silver dollars and silver certificates ee hia contention being that they were tn cir. culation as at par with gold and that it would be dishonest to refuse to redeem them in gold. He does not care to predict the amount of silver dollars and silver cer. tifieates that, under these circumstances would be present«d for redemption, as they would remain in circulation unless the Goy. ernment demanded their prompt liquidation —which he would not favor. Otherwige they would be presented from time to timé for taxes and other Government dues, fi, would have Congress pass a law declaring that the word “coin” in Government bonds meant gold or its equivalent and gradually retire the treasury notes and greenbacks. He deprecares the suggestion of forcin silver upon people who do not want it oat suggests the issuance of small notes, all of greenbacks, hig theory being that the Goy. ernment would profit by the wear and tear of these notes, which is large. One feature of Mr. Parsons’ plan is the chartering of the clearing-houses of the country and the issuing of clearing-house currency. | __-APTER FIVE DAYS.
