SUNDAY POST-DISPATCH. MARRIED HIS SERVANT GIRL ‘Moses Scharff Elopes to Clay- ton With Miss Barfuss. GROOM IS 65 YEARS OLD. . THE NEW MBS. SCHARFF IS ONLY 25 AND WAS HER HUSBAND'S KITCHEN MAID. SAID HE HAD A HEADACHE. Offering This Excuse He Left His Of- fice and Later Presented His Five Children With a Stepmother. After living almost to the psalmist’s limit of three score and ten and after being a widower eight years, Moses Scharff, senior member of Scharff Bros., flour dealers, and prominent in business and Jewish circles, eloped with a Gentile 40 years his junior, a former servant in his household. ° There was a scene at his beautiful home, 4000 Forest Park boulevard, Thursday morn- ing, when he told of his marriage. There was much comment when it be- came known in the business district and on the floor of the Merchants’ Exchange, of which Mr. Scharff has been for years a prominent member. Mr. Scharff is 65 years old. His bride was known by her maiden name, Elizabeth V. Barfuss. She was formerly the wife of a Dr. Smith of Cape Girardeau. She ob- tained a divorce from her husband in Octo- ber, 1895, with the assistance of Mr. Scharff, who advised her to bring suit, and testified in her behalf at the trial. She is 25. For eight months prior to her marriage to Dr. Smith she was a cook for Mr. Scharff'’s household, which consisted of him- gelf and his daughter, Marion, and his son, Louis, both single.

DILATORY POLICE TACTICS. Fifth District Officers Say They Know the Man, but Fail to Arrest Him—The Girls Want to Prosecute. The police of the Fifth District have been searching for Henry HoKamp since Sunday. He lives at the northeast corner of Twenty-fifth and North Market streets with his wife and children. Mrs. Hokamp says her husband is at home every night and morning. She thinks it strange the police cannot find him. He works some place, she says, but for the life of her she cannot tell where. The police suspeot that It was Hokamp who attacked Miss Minnie Franke, 273 Warren street, and Miss Loutsa Steube, 2220 Montgomery street, last Sunday night. Misa Franke has been so prostrated by the fright «he received on that occasion that she has been unable to fulfill her du- ties at the Planters’ Hotel, where she is employed. Miss Steube works in a laun- dry at Twenty-ninth and Olive streets. A reporter called at the Franke home Thursday morning. Miss Franke could not be seen, but her sister, Miss Etta Franke, told the story of the assault. Miss Steube and Minnie went over to North Market street with some other young women who had passed the evening with us,’’ she said. “They were walking home, arm in arm, and were in a hurry. As they passed Ben- ton street on Twenty-fifth they were fright- ened out of their wits by a man who sud- denly emerged from behind a tree box. He came directly toward the girls and they screamed with fright. “Shut up,’ he said, as he grabbed Min- Miss -MARion -SCHARFP MOSES SHARFF AND HIS DAUGHTER, MARION. has five children and a number of grand- children. The elopement took place Wednesday. Mr. Scharff left his place of business at $11 North Main street at 1p. m., saying he had a headache and was going home to rest. He did not. He met Miss Barfuss by ap- intment. They took a car and went to layton. Im order to divert suspicion they got off the car separately at points a block apart and entered the Court House by dif- ferent doors, : They met at Deputy Recorder Wetzel’s office where Charies J. Henninger of the Clayton Argus was waiting for them, They obtained a marriage license, Then they went to the Argus office, where Justice Greens- felder met them later and married them. At 5:30 o’clock Mr. Scharff appeared at his residence alone, smiling and with a bunch of violets in his button hole, M'ss Anna Ferguson, who has been his housekeeper for three years, opened the door. “How’s your headache?” she asked, “T havefi’t any headache,” said Mr. Bcharft. “O, I thought he had,” said the house- keeper, ‘‘one of the men from the store was here and said you had a headache. “It’s all gone now," replied the aged groom, smiling broadly and keep'mg his se- cret Miss Ferguson has been the only occu- pani of the house during the day for several weeks. Miss Marion is visiting a sister in Mobile, Ala., and Louis Scharff is in Arkan- Sas on business, Thursday morning Mr. Scharff divulged his secret to his housekeeper, He was putting on his overcoat in the hall. He took a package, carefully wrapped in tissue paper, from his pocket and laid st on the hal] rack. As he was leaving Miss Ferguson called his attention to the pack- e. ono,” said the white-bearded head of the house, “‘those are violets. My wife bought them yesterday.’ “your wife?” ejaculated Miss Ferguson. Mr. Scharff aparently changed his mind ebout going out and went upstairs. A few minutes later he called Miss Ferguson to him and told her he had married Miss Bar- uss. The housekeeper got excited and resigned, gaying she would not remain in the house with the new Mrs. Scharff. “©, well, there'll’ be somebody here to cook supper to-night, anyway,” sald Mz; S6charff. Vie paid Miss Ferguson and slippe out of the house while she was trying to tell him “what she thougnr about it.” Miss Ferguson had qvieted down some- what when a Post-Dispatch reporter called at the house. She is agiight, neat looking blonde.

METEOR IN BROAD DAY. Seen Wednesday by E. F. Coddington at Lick Observatory. SAN JOSE, Cal.,; Jan. 20.—The following telephone message was received from Di- rector Schaeberle of Lick Observatory: “The very unusual phenomenon of a bright meteor in broad daylight was observed here by E. F. Coddington, fellow in as- tronomy, at the observatory. It was seen in the West shortly after 1 o’clock p. m., at an elevation of about 8 degrees above the horizon, moving rapidly toward the north in a path slightly inclined toward the earth. It increased in brightness alcng its course and disappeared suddenly in a clear sky without any report being heard. SPENCER, IND., BURNING. All Communication With Other Towns Cut Off by Fire. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Jan. 20.—Reports were recéived from Spencer, Ind., at an early hour-this morning that the town was on fire. Before any particulars could be learned, the telephone and telegraphic con- nect:ons with that place were cut off. The last report from a train dispatcher there to a neighboring station was to the effect that two of the biggest business blocks in the town were on fire and burning fiercely. Spencer is the county seat of Owen County and is on the Indianapols & Vincennes Railway, 53 miles from here. PACKING HOUSE ACCIDENT. One Workman Was Killed and Two Others Were Injured.

ATTEMPT MADE BY EX-BUILDING COMMISSIONER HACKETT TO SHOOT KOERNER. QUARRELED ABOUT HIGGINS. Koerner Was Hiding in His Office and Hackett Was Trying to Get at Him When Patrolman Crane Got There. E. A. Koerner, a Washington avenue restaurant keeper, looked down the barrel of Thomas W. Hackett’s revolver early Thursday morning and shivered. Had it not been for the prompt interference of Patrol- man Jerry Crane of the Central Police Dis- trict, Mr. Koerner might have been killed. When the policeman arrived Koerner was crouching behind h‘ts desk and Hackett, with revolver in hand, was entering the in- closure around the desk, prepared to shoot. Hackett is a well-known contractor, He was once Building Commissioner, At 1 o’clock Thursday morning he entered Koerner’s place and sat with the proprietor at a table in the barroom. They were well acquainted and the coriversation was pleas- ant until Hackett began chaffing Koerner about running his place without a license. Mr. Koerrter’s recent bout with Excise Commissioner Higgins is an unpleasant topic for him. He showed that he did not relish itand Hackett began abusing the Ex- cise Commissioner for the part he played. “Now that’s qll settied,”’ said oerner, “and if you’re a man and have anything to Bay about Higgins say it to his face and not behind his back.” This angered Hackett and he called Koer- ner a harsh name. Koerner rose and said if the offense were repeated he would slap Hackett’s face. Hackett repeated the offensive name, but the saloonkeeper did not slap Hackett had drawn a deadly-looking re- volver and was loudly shouting that he would shoot. He wag preparing to execute his threat when Koerner, in his haste to avoid danger, overturned a table and fled. The waiters ran out on Washington ave- him, ‘for! nue, calling lustily for the poiice. Koerner ran behind the bar and into his private office, with Hackett close after him. Patrolman Crane was at Sixth street and Washington avenue when he heard the dis- turbance, He rushed in and caught Hack- ett’s arm in time to prevent murder. Hackett resisted, but was arrested and locked up at the Chestnut Street Police Sta- tion. He was charged in the Police Court with carrying concealed weapons. Mr. Koer- ner was not present to prosecute, but the case was continued until the 22d, at the re- quest of Hackett’s attorney. During Noonan’s campaign for Mayor, Hackett shot and seriously wounded Dave Rugan, a well known selittolann. He was acquitted on trial, MOBS 10 BE REPRESSED, Proposed Demonsiration Next Sunday in Paris Prohibited. PARIS, Jan. 20.—fThe Minister of the In- terior, M.

Y., Jan. 20.—The Canal Boat Owners’ Association of the State has drafted two bills for the protection of the commerce of the State and of the canals and they will be introduced in theLegislature in a few days. One of the bills appropriates $120,000 for the purchase of four grain elevators at Buffalo by the State Superintendent of Pub- lic Works and provides that he may in- stitute condemnation proceedings to take elevators now in use there if they suit the purposes of the State.

THE COMMISSION SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN CONVERTED TO THE ASPHALT PAVING SYSTEM. EXAMINING PUBLIC WORKS. ee President McMath Spent One Day in Looking Into the Construction of the Riverside Aqueduct and East River Bridge. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Jan. 20.—‘We are in the mud, dirty mud, and must get out,” re- marked Commissioner F. G. Uthoff of the St. Louis delegation of city officials who are looking into the street-paving question in Eastern cities, and are now quartered at the Hotel Imperial. “Yes,’” chimed in Julius Wurzburger, “we have more miles of street than Manhattan Borough, and they are in pretty bad shape. Something must be done.”’ ‘“‘How’s Jefferson avenue? It used to be a specially attractive lane for stalling horses,” remarked a former St. Louisan, ‘“‘Well,”” repled Wurzburger, “it’s still there; the foundation has not sunk entire- ly out of sight, but it may soon.” ‘You have mighty clean etreets here,” suggested Mr. Lehmann. “Who did it, and how did he succeed so well?” The name of former Street Commissioner Waring was mentioned and his policy of re- moving the department entirely out of pol- itics was related hastily. This information provoked a emile, behind which might have been pceking ut the thought, “The foolish fellow, what a graft he threw away!’’ When told that Col. Waring’s salary had been $8000 a year the visiting gentry were not aghast, as St. Louis taxpayers might have hoped, but thought it only fair com- pensation, As no person on earth is worth more than a St. Louis politician, a revision of salaries along the lines of New York's pay roll need not be a surprise. And why should it? Is not St. Louis the equal of New York? But more, does not St. Louis know lis officials and need there be surprise at anything-they do? The mere fact that the informant swelled Waring’s salary $2000—he only gettiag 3$6000—will not be permitted to change the opinion of the S:. Louis delegation. The visitors are combining pleasure with business. They are housed in the smartest hotel in eaten ¢ and are sceing the sights. However, they are putting in some real labor looking at work done by New York departments. Thus far they are sim- ply visitors; after Friday they will become distinguished guests, because that day they will pay an official visit to the Mayor of Greater New York. After that they will visit the street clean- ing, public works and bridge departments, and with experts as guideg will go over the public work they are now informally but ' more carefully inspecting. At present the three features of New York's government that interest the visi- tors most are street cleaning, street build- ing and bridges amd aqueducts. The dele- gation is divided into committees who in- ' vestigate along different lines. President McMath spent all of yestefday ooking into the proposed Riverside Aque- duct, and examining the work on the new East River bridge. All, however, pay at- tention to the str ets, because clean asphalt has caught them. “If we could only get rid of the special tax clause of the city charter,” remarked one of the visitors, ‘“‘we would bulld asphalt streets in St. Louts. We could spread the asphalt on top of the cobble-stones like you do here in New York, and thereby secure the finest possible foundation. We need asphalt and need it badly.’’ “Yes, you are right,” chimed in several, and ‘t was plain that at the first moment possible asphalt streets wil] be built if this committee has its own way. The asphalt mills in Brooklyn are to be visited later. The delegation is pleased with New York. The town is undeniably very clean, and the lorious weather has made their stay thus ar a rare holiday. But in other respects they are pleased, All want to see Mr. Croker. He seems to be the one person needed to make them happy. His political ability appeals to them, They are used to the Ed Butlers, the Chauncey I. Filleys, but Croker is just a little bit superior, and they are willing to acknowledge it. They will call on him later. as they expect to remain here a week. When the delegation reaches home !tg re- ort will be laid before the Mayor and Until then Mr. Wurzburger told what be | Council, | me no authoritative’ statement o recommendations it will contain will | made public. | ADOLPH’S ULTIMATUM; OR, THE BOLDNESS OF A TRUE LOVER REWARDED.

Champ Clark Attacks McKiriley for Passing the Hat Instead of Ordering War Ships to Havana. “The ‘President's Foreign Pol- icy Passeth All Under- standing.” “THIS IS THE DAY OF MC-HANNAISM.” “If Spain Does Not Speedily End the War the United States Should Expel Her From the West- ern Hemisphere.” Bpectal ta the Port-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 20.—The with the opening of the Cuban debate ‘in eee) REPRBSENTATIVE DE ARMOND., (Who opened the battle in the House.) Democrats In Congress are well pleased the House. While not intending to make the question a partisan one, they maintain that their constituents and the country generally have lost patience with the dilatory policy of the Administration and favor such action on the part of this Government as will end the suffering in Cuba. " In the House to-day Champ Clark of Mis- gOurl opened the debate with one of his characteristic speeches. He said in pert: “If Spain does not -bring the war to a epeedy conclusion the United States ought to expel her from the Western Hemisphere. There can be no doubt as to what has been our foreign policy. Our foreign policy under the McKinley administration, like the peace of God, passeth all understanding. ‘In these days of Mc-Hannaism our for- eign policy is so feeble, so cringing, so cowardly that even old and decrepid Spain insults our flag, maltreats our citizens and eearches our ships with perfect impunity; and President McKinley instead of sending men of war to protect our honor, assert our supremacy and teach the insolent and im- potent Dons a lessons they would never forget, passes the hat around and invites the American people to contribute alms for starving and dying Cubans. “It is high time that we served plain and emphatic notice on all Kings, Emperors and potentates that the navies of transatlantic powers shall not be used as collection bu- reaus for questionable debts, as was donea year or two ago at Corinto, and as was done @ month or so ago at Hayti, The Cuban case ig this: a “For three .years the insurgents have) fdbught with a courage and suffered with a fortitude that has challenged the admira- tion of the world—save and except the Mc- Kinley administration. ® , “Three or four hundred thousand people —some of the papers say 600,000—have died, men, women and children, as much martyrs in the cause of liberty as was Warren or any other hero who died that we might be free—and yet the administration lifts not its finger to stay the slaughter and can think of nothing more effective for t&eir relief than to pose aa the big beggar man. “The party of Sumner, Chase and Seward, which proudly vaunted itself as the friend of mian, has become the ally of pestilence and areon, famine, devastation and murder., “To every suggestion that we should re- enter upon a vigorous foreign policy we are met with the hysterica] shriek that we are advocating war. It is not true. “But suppose it were! There are some things worse than war—deplorable as war unquestionably is—and one of them is to play the cry-baby act until we are despised of all nations and kindred and tongues, “Now that we number 70,000,000 souls, a Republican administration cannot be taunted, kicked or cuffed Into‘resenting an insult or demanding reparation for an in- jury. , “Such a contemptible and pusillanimous policy is enough to make Grant, Sherman, ; your rights, come out on the side of eternal justice and human liberty, thereby dem- onstrating that you are worthy of the high voeation wherein you are called. We Dem- ocrats and Populists stand here ready to re- move from America her great reproach. “We on this side will contribute 152 votes. “If only 27 Republicans will break the yoke, defy their taskmasters and join us in this noble work, before the sun sets this day we will send the glad tidings ringing round the world that “Cuba is free.’ Free, thank God, by the act of' the American Congress.”’ ... TROOPS FILLED HAVANA, Extraordinary Precautions Tuken by Marshal Blanco. HAVANA, Jan. #.—Although the rioting was practically over on Friday night, troops continued to pour into the city up to Sun- day. Gen. Bernal arrived from Pinar del Rio on that morning with a force estimated at 2000 men and bivouacked in the railroad yards in the Prado, where most of the forces still remain. About the same time a column of 100 cavalry rode in and found quarters in the Cuartel de la Fuerza. In Cuba street, on the aritllery wharf, batteries of field artil- lery were planted in position to rake Cuba and Chacon streets, all public bu‘idings along the harbor front from the Plaza de Armas to the Punta were crammed with troops, and large bodies of cavalry and in- fantry were held in reserve in the streets adjacent to Central Park. It is estimated that fully 12,000 troops were in the city, in addition to the regular garrison. There was much speculation as to the cause of such extraordinary precautions, in v_ew of the fact that the city was apparent- ly tranquil. The usual parade of the volun- teer palace guards on the Prado was per- mitted, but a cordon of regulars massed the crowd at a distance, permitting no one to approach the volunteers or to cross the park. After the yolunteers marched to the palace all restrictions were removed, but the cavalry remained in the front of the Hotel Ingletera until the next morning. During the nght one or two small dis- turbances occurred, and a few shots were fired, but no one was hurt. A few bat- talions of troops returned to their stations in the field Monday morning, evidently on the strength Of rumors that the insurgents are about to take advantage of their ab- sence to assume the offensive, although a large number of troops st_ll remain. hey are kept closely confined to their quarters. The artillery was remcoQ@‘d from the streets on Monday and the city resumed its wonted aspect, An explanation offered for the con- centration of troops far in excess of the ap- pores aparity of the situation is that Gen. 3lanco has determined to mobilize one- quarter of the volunteer force and send it into the fleld on active duty. If he ever had such an idea he has apparently abandoned it. A much more probable solution is of- fered in the Madrid telegram in the papers Sheridan, Dupont, Farmagut and decdict restiess in their coffins. “My Republican friends,”’ he said in con- } clusion, “I invite you to lay aside the weight that is holding you down, assert received here th's morning, stating that the riots were the result of a conservative plot in Spain to overthrow the ministry and Gen. Blanco and to enforce the return of Gen. Weyler. ; , “POLICY SHOP RAIDED: Detectives Joyce and Burke Swoop Down on Michael Divers. Michael Divers, 1007 Lucas avenue, keeps > a policy shop.

They do not know ‘his name, but the private watchman in the neighborhood of the scene could tell them that.” The police investigated and say that Henry Hokamp is the man who made the assault. He worked until last week at Gessling’s box factory on Blatr avenue. He was not at home when a Post-Dispatch reporter called. His wife was. ‘There were two policemen here to see him this morn‘ng,”’ she said. “It must be some- thing bad. Won't you tell me what it is”’ When tnformed, but the date not men- tioned, she said: “Why, he was home Sunday night and could not have done it.” “Hiow did you know it was done on Sun- day night?’ she was asked. She realized she had said more than was wise and replied: “Well, my husband came home that night and told me he was accused of holding up two airis, but he said there was nothing in it. My husband is home every night and will face any charge they may make against him.”’ TO CURE A COLD IN ONE DAY Take Laxative Bromo Quinine Tablets. Al) druggiate refund money if it fails to cure. So.

His Wife Had Left Him and He Wanted Her to Return to Him, Which She Would Not Do, anh NEW HAVEN, Conn., Jan. 2.—Edward Duff, aged 40, a mechanic, shot and killed his wife and mother-in-law, Mary Maher, at their home here last night after vainly trying to induce his wife to live with him again. He had been drinking heavily. When he called his wife left the house to avold him. He followed and shot her down in the street. Then he returned to the house, and, going to the room where his wife’s mother was sewing,unconscious of the trag- edy, shot her in the neck and shoulder, so that she died almost instantly. John Reilly, a boarder, whe Was in an adjoining room, met Duff coming from the sewing room with a revolver in his handa. He asked Duff what he had done and re- ceived in reply a ghot, which grazed his neck. Reilly ran off and Duff took to the street. He passed over the body of his dead wife as it lay on the walk. He reloaded his revolver and seeing that the crowd was athering, walked briskly down the atreet or a bleck, carrying the revolver exposed allthe time. The news of the murder spread rapidly and in > and minutes a patrol wagon with three officers rushed up. Duff fought like a tiger, but was disarmed and locked THE OHIO BOOMING. It Is Now 2 1-2 Feet Above the Danger Line at Cincinnati. Special to the Post-Dispatch. CINCINNATI, Jan. 20.—Again the Ohio River is booming, and the prospects to-day are decidedly gloomy. There was a heavy downpour of rain yesterday and all last night. It ceased for a while this morning, but has begun again. The stage is now 47 feet 6 inches, two and one-half feet above the danger line. ‘Merchants in the’ bottoms are moving their goods to higher ground. High winds have prevailed through the night and to-day and the temperature is falling, both which conditions operate to lessen the danger of flood. According to present advices there has not been a gen- eral heavy rain in West Virginia-nor else- where about headwaters...At Pomeroy the river was reported stationary at 28 feet this morning with hard rains all night, the weather being like April. Much damage has been done along the Little Miami River. The bridge on the Pennsylvania road at Morrow has gone out, causing a long detour by trains. ? MARRIED HIS SERVANT GIRL. wr CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONP. say she would not remain under the same roof with Miss Barfuss. f ‘“‘Miss Barfuss told us‘ she had recently come from Germany “when she went to work for Mr. Scharff. She is rather’ short and stout and a blonde. She speaks English with a marked German accent. Before she had been here long she assumed contro! of the houschold. “Her resignation was caused by a quar- rel wits Louis Scharff, the old man’s son. Elizabeth, as we always called her, talked freely to Mr. Scharff about ‘this children. She told him that Miss Schar travagant in her dress and Louis did not keep proper hours. This caused a scene be- tween her and Louis. She left the house. A short time afterwards she sent her trunks to Mr. Scharff’s place of business for stor- age. Louis heard about’it and ordered the trunks thrown into the street. This caused a quarrel between Louis and Mr. Scharff. which resulted in Louis’ leaving home and remaining awey three months. “Meanwhile Elizabeth married Dr. Smith. She wrote to Mr. Scharff frequently, com- laining that her husband drank heavily. was too ex- divorce. She brought suit and in October, 1895, Mr. Scharff appeared on the witness stand and testified as to her character. “She got the divorce, with a restoration of her maiden name. Prior to this, while the divorce suit was pending, Mr. Scharff brought Miss Barfuss to the house and an- nounced that she was to remain several days. Miss Marion thought otherwise. “She said, ‘Now, Elizabeth, you eat your supper and get right out of here. If you don’t, I will.’ “There was a family quarrel. Miss Scharff became very much excited. She ran up- stairs and got a picture of Miss Barfuss and tore it to pieces. Miss Barfuss had given her @e bottle of cologne. She took that and threw it out of the back window, smashing it against the fence. During Miss Marion’s absence, Miss Bar- ‘was not for Davison to decide whether or MUST ANSWER, Warrant.

Testimony of ths Man*Who Was Wounded Is Not Necessary to Make a Case, So the Police Say. Dr. C. F., Simmons and his son, Harry, are not to escape with a Police Court fine for shooting Emil Davison Tuesday. Just after the exciting episode on Car- dinal avenue, young Davison magnani- mously refused to prosecute his assailants, because a@ woman’s.honor was involved in the controversy. Furthermore Davison said that if Dr. Simmons believed the story that he had attempted to wrong Miss Mary. Sim- mons, he had done just right in trying to kill him. On his refusal to prosecute Dr. Simmons and his son were sent to the Police Court for discharging firearms, and Davison was charged with carrying a pistol. This was the graver offense of the two and Davison got the worst of it all round. But Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Jchn- son took a different view of the matter. It not reckless target practice could be in- duiged in on a public street, the lives of in- nocent pedestrians endangered, and the eace 60 flagrantly disturbed, thought the rosecuting Attorney. Col. Johnson let the police know that Emil Davison’s decision cut no figure at_ all. There must be plenty of witnesses and if the police would hunt them up he would issue & warrant, and have the shooters prose- cuted, whether Mr. Davison approved or not. Enough testimony could be obtained, without Davison’s, to convict. Chief of Police Harrigan took the same view of the case. There was too much reck- less shooting, he said, and it ought to be stopped. Then Capt. Boyd of the Seventh District got to work and his men located eye witnesses to the shooting. At 11 o’clock Thursday morning Officers Kamer, Hasse and Armstrong of the Sev- enth District visited the warrant office and gave the folowing names of eye witnesses: Fred Farr, a student at the Barnes Medical College; Ed Lynch, 3011 Chestnut street, and H. Krieger, a huckster, whose address is unknown, but whom the police can locate, As to Krieger, the peiics say that he re- fused to say positively whether or not he saw the shooting, on the ground that he did not want to be implicated. But Kamer said positively that Krieger was present and he was insiructed to locate him. After hearing wast the officers had to say, Col. Johnson issued a warrant. It is a joint warrant, charging Dr. C. F. Simmons and Harry A. Simmons with assault to kill by shooting Emil Davison in the right shoulder and the right hand. ‘ The pena ty. on conviction, is from two to 10 years in the penitentiary. THE MURDER UF MRS. MERRY Smith Gives a Brutal Description of the Crime. CHICAGO, Jan. 20.—James Smith, the companion of Peddler Chris Merry, to-day told the story of the murder of Merry’s wife. ‘The truth is, neither Hickey nor I was there when Merry killed his wife,”’ said Smith. ‘“‘We were across the street. We could hear him pounding her head upon the floor. No, she did not cry. She couldn't. He was choking her. “It’s not true what the doctors said about her living until 12 o’clock. He croaked her outright, killed her on the spot. “Then he came over and told me about it. He said: ‘It’s all Over with Poll. I've croaked her sure.’ ‘““Merry was pretty badly broken up that night. We left Poll in e bed and sat by the stove all night. We did not sleep. He thought a good deal of that woman—too much of her. But he had such a temper. No one could get along with him. “The doctor says she could have lived twelve hours. No one could live and stand the beating that man gave her. You know, she had not been eating regularly for three or four days and was weak anyway.” Smith also told about the burying of the body in a ditch outside the city and the journey South of the murderer und nis companions. When court was called Attor- ney Wade for Smith made his closing ad- dress, and was followed by Col, Davidson for Merry. THE CURRENCY HEARING Conditions That Bar Wagner and Towne From Talking.

He told me he fell in love with Mies Bar- fuss before she had been in his house a} month, “Since her divorce she has not worked. She has been rooming somewhere on Comp- ton avenue. Mr. Scharff’s attachment for her has been suspected by his relatives for some t.me, She used to call on him at the store, but Mr. Scharff’s brother, Ben, told her to keep away from there. “Mr. Scharff has three single children, Ma- rion, Louis and Edward. Edward is in Chi- cago. His father ostracised him and would not permit his name to be mentioned in the house because he married a Gentile. And now he’s gone and done it himself.’’ Mr. § rff is a promineni member of the Columbian Club and a member of Temple Israel] congregation.

Consul-General Mason at Frankfort, Germany, ‘is a most indiscreet officer of the McKinley Ad- 3 minsistration. Mr. Mason embodies in his report on wages some interesting facts, showing that American labor is the cheapest in the world. He quotes a British expert’s conclusion that the labor cost of a ton of steel billets or rails is in the United States from 25 to 35 per cent less ‘than in Great Britain, although the wages of American steel- workers are higher than those of British work- men. - A German expert, quoted by Mr. Mason, says that his investigation shows that whereas in American shoe factories the average wage is $15 @ week as compared with an average in Ger- many of $3.80, yet the labor cost of American machine-made shoes is 40 cents, as compared with 58 cents for the same article in Germany. Thus the wages in the United States are four times as large and the labor cost is one-third less. This vast superiority of American labor is due to improved machinery and the intelligence and energy of the workmen combined with intelligent direction. Part of the advantage of the Amer- ican manufacturers is charged to cheap and rapid transportation. It is thus shown that American manufacturers ' pay less for their labor in proportion to its earn- ing capacity than do European manufacturers. From this standpoint, which is the only true test, American labor is paid less than laborers in Europe. The American manufacturer can underbid the European manufacturer and is do- ing it wherever he is permitted to compete. The European has more to fear from the cheap labor of the United States than the American work- man has to fear from the so-called pauper labor of Europe. Consul-General Mason has knocked the pins from the protective tariff argument. Freed from tariff restrictions and obstacles, the American , manufacturers would rule the markets of the world. Do the Republican leaders want the McKinley Administration marked as the administration which took a backward step in the maw facill- ‘ties supplied the people? Shall it make every- body suffer but the trust magnates? i i ha —-— -_ TWO FORMS OF TYRANNY. Congressman De Armond and his fellow-Demo- crats are making a righteous fight on the floor of the House against two forms of tyranny. One is Spanish tyranny in Cuba and the other fs partisan machine tyranny in the House of Representatives. One seeks the privilege of re- eorting to every form of cruel outrage to pro- lung oppression and the other seeks to stifle the voleds of the representatives of a free people who want to protest against the outrage. The McKinley Administration is going a long Sway in aid of the Spanish tyrant. Not only does -4dt make the United States the practical ally of oppression, but it refuses free speech in protest against the alliance and the oppression. If the Democratic minority cannot break the power of the party machine in the House it is, | at least, directing public attention to the infamy ‘of its work. : — a, La a i as Gen. Blanco Is facing a dilemma, either horn jot which means gore. ———— hi hp. a PINGREE AS HERCULES. Republican Governor Pingree complains that the trust tools and boodlers who have made the Republican party their own complain that he is “no Republican. Not with any purpose of finding fault with Pingree, we ask, ‘are they not right? ‘What is Gov. Pingree? Why does he persist in posing as a Republican? He says: “To-day all the trusts and monopolies which ‘@re bleeding the country have taken refuge un- der the wing of the Republican party, because they fear’ the Democratic party, which has Kicked them out.” _ According to Pingree the Democratic party has accomplished the gigantic task of kicking the trusts and monopolies out of its domain. They are now in Pingree’s party. Can Pingree kick them out? : Pingree is a modern Hercules—a little bald- headed, but very self-confident Hercules. He is ‘poking around in a monstrous big Augean atable, which he proposes to clean all alone. If Hercules Pingree and the Republicans who ‘gree with him cannot clean out the Republican stables, what will they do-—stick to the dirty ‘gtables or get cleaner stables? = = ~~ - A Barthboldt epitaph seems to be nearly due ¥rom the Filley typewriter. = ~ THE TURMOIL IN FRANCE. Zola has stirred up a hornets’ nest in France, but he hae done so in the interests of justice. The Government has taken advantage of his action ¢o claim that the army is attacked. The hare- ‘brained student element has seized the opportu- nity’to prove its incapatity to take a broad view of public questions, The anti-Semitic set is im- these temporary disorders stifle or intimidate him. All he demands is publicity. He is not re- ‘sponsible for the uprising of the enemies of order ‘that his championship of Dreyfus seems to have precipitated. In due time the demand he makes must be heard and heeded. | If the French Government fails to test it will merely be a proof of its and incapacity. | The third annual meeting of the St. Louis Business Men’s League will be held at the Plant- ers’ Hotel on Tuesday, Jan. 25, and will be pre- ceded by a banquet. This organization is en- titled to the very earnest support of the busi- ness men generally. In the short period of its ‘existence it has accomplished much for the city and its members have worked conscientiously ‘and disinterestedly in their work for the build- ing up of St. Louis. a the eakness A A. i Md THE CARRIER REDUCTIONS. Mayor Ziegenhein would do well to call a mass meeting of citizens to protest against the re- duction of the letter carrier force and of mail deliveries in the residence districts. The Mer- chants’ Exchange and other business organiza- tions should supplement the general protest with special protests. Prompt action is necessary. St. Louis has better ground of protest against the reduction than perhaps any city in the Union, The present force of letter carriers in this city represents an injustice, because it is smaller pro- portionately than the forces of other large cities, Although Chicago's population is less than twice as large as that of St. Louis, Chicago has five times as many carriers. St. Louis needs and is entitled by the earnings of the city’s mail service to an increase of the present force. Evefy year the local service gives increased profits, a part of which should be ex- pended in the improvement of the service, but all of which is grabbed up by the department and used for the benefit of others. A reduction in the mail facilities of any city is bad policy, but a reduction in the St. Louis mail facilities and our overworked carriers is a special gross injustice. The people of St. Louis should protest vigorously against the outrage. Congress should be urged to do justice in this matter by promptly meeting the emergency with an appropriation. Republican jeers in the House at the charge of violation of the St. Louis platform is an evi- dence of what little principle there is in parti- san politicians, and especially partisan politicians of the cuckoo stripe, 6 — Who would have thought, on the 4th of March, 1897, that on the 19th of January, 1898, a de- fense of the Administration’s Cuban policy would be necessary in the House of Representa- tives?

A New Law Which Will Make It Un- lawful for Cousins to Marry There, PADUCAH, Ky., Jan. 20.—When the State Senate follows the example set by the House and passes the b!ll prohibiting the legal marriage of first cousins in Kentucky the matrimonial business of Paducah will be dealt a severe blow. er since the St. Louis and Paducah road was built, and even before that time, Paducah has been the Gretna Green of scores of first cousins, who felt that closer ties of kinship could alone make them happy. As the laws of the States to the north and west do not au- thorize the union of first cousins, this has for a long time been the closest point for couples on that relationship to each other, when efoping from Southern and Southwestern Illinole or Eastern Missourt. All sorts of people profit at the Paducah end of these runaway matches. The present state of affairs puts money in the pockets of the Illinois Central Railroad Company, the County Clerk, the Magistrates, the preach- ers, the florists, hotels and the cab drivers. If the measure which has passed the House becomes a statute, all this source of revenue will be rudely killed, and first cousins from Illinois and Missouri will be forced to look elsewhere fora spot to elope to. In the last ten years probably 200 pairs of first cousins from other States, not to mention Kentucky peepee ca iy 5. atenvar Teationship, have ed here.

CARLINVILLE, IIL, Jan. 20.~The Bunker Hill church case has been séttled, so far as the County Court is concerned, the jury re- turning a verdict, after having been out all night. On the first charge the jury found the defendants, Henry Sneeringer and Thomas J. Carroll, guilty, and oo the sec- ond one not guilty. The defense made a motion for a new trial, but the time for the arguments on the motion has not yet been set. The penalty in such cases is not more han $100 fine, and the court will not fix the ne until the motion for a new trial has been argued and the question decided. It is said that the Bishop will now interfere, and that the church property may be sold and the division made complete by the differen: factions getting as far apart as possible in their church relations. The costs in the case are very heavy. as the case has been in the courts since 1896, and the great num- = of witnesses will make it very expen- sive.

LOUIS BROWNS. WILL SURELY NOT COME HERE. Tim Says He Will Hold Down an Um- pire’s Job This Year, Just as He Did Last. There have been rumors and rumors that Muckenfuss, the new president of the St. Louls Browns, bad signed Tim Hurst, the famous umpire, to manage that team. About a month ago the same rumor went the rounds, and the Post-Dispatch tele- graphed Hurst and asked him if he was coming here. He replied that he had not even had an offer from the St. Louis folks and that he was not coming here, One day this week Muckenfuss, in an in- terview, was quoted as saying that Hurst would be the Browns’ manager when the season opened. Hurst was in New York this morning and the special to the Post- Dispatoh brings the very latest news of his plans in so far as the St. Louis Club and ther things are concerned: OW YORK, Jan. 20.—Tim Hurst is not be manager of the St. Louis club. He ad a weary look on his face yesterday when his attention was called to a dispatch m &t. Louis estating that he ‘was siated for the job. ‘Oh, some wise reporter is getting a bit hasty,” said Tim. “J guess some ‘ta-ra-ra- bum’ will manage the St. Louis outfit, but I am not the gazabo. No, I am enjoying the best of health this balmy winter weath- er and will hold down an umpire'’s job again next summer. I have not been ap- pointed yet, but the main squeeze has given me the friendly nod,” Mr. Hurst declared that he had not re- ceived any communication of any kind from the new St. Louls magnate, whoever he is, and that he had not applied for the posi- tion of manager. The rumor that St. Louis ts likely to lose the League meeting that was to have taken lace in February has cast a wet bianket on base ba)! circles. *Still,"*.eald a base ball man, yesterday "4: wouldn't be much of a meeting, even if # was held here.

FITZSIMMONS ADVISES CORBETT. hheplies to Corbett’s Dispatch to the Minneapolis Times. The Corbett-Fitzgsimmons war continues to rage. The following telegram was re- ceived by the Inter-Ocean last night: MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., Jan 20.—Replying to Corbett’s wire to the Times here, I authorize you to go and interview that faking false alarm. On my behalf ask him if he hadn't better distribute some of the $35,000 among some eminent physicians and try and relieve himself from the attack of paresis he has labored under ever since I put him out of the business in Carson City. As he appears to be vverburdened with money at present, suggest to him the ad- visability of settling 4 the balances he owes the physicians who treated him in Hot Springs at the time he crawled out uf the match with me, Before conciuding your interview advise him to blow out the pipe and stop smoking, as it has a wonderful tendency to produce imaginary wealth, and is very irritating to paresis, so I'm told.

ARRANGEMENTS COMPLETE FOR THEIR MEETING IN THE ORIENTAL THEATER. BOTH MEN NOW IN TRAINING. Pointers of Interest to the Big and Lit- tle Pugilists Picked Up at Home and Abroad. All arrangements have been completed for the meeting in the Oriental Theater of Tommy Tracy and Bob Douglas. Beside the meeting of these crack light- weights there will be three first-rate pre- liminary bouts between WéAllie Leyden and Willie Regan at 135 pounds These lads are pupils of Bob Douglas. Tracy, always a hard and conscientious worker, is already shaping himself up for this meeting with Douglas. He is doing his training at Palos Park, near Chicago, the spot whero Creedon got in shape for his meeting with McCoy. ° Douglas is here at home taking plenty of exercise and he promises to be in good shape and to give a good account of himself when the time comes. Douglas is now a living ex- ample of the old saying, “A prophet is not without honor save in his own country.” At Chicago Douglas has met’ and defeated | all the lightweights the Chicago Athletic, Club cou ecare up, but he has never ap-| peared before a cracker-jack at home. His | meeting with Tracy will show just how good | a man he is. Next Saturday night the Home Athletic | Club will give their boxing entertainment at Uhrig’s Cave. The pretty bout will be} that between McHugh and O'Shea. Arthur | |Flint, the old time boxer, will also appear at the Home Club’s meeting. Kid Lavigne says he will not accept the challenge of Tommy Ryan of Syracuse. ‘Lavigne says he will fight any lightweight in the world, but will not go out of his class. As Ryan can not come down to the weight, the ‘“‘Kid’’ refuses to consider his proposition. Kid omg « has drawn the color I'ne. When his attention wads called to Walcott's challenge and $6000 forfeit, he said: ‘‘I have never fought a negro and never will. Peter Jackson put “4 a forfeit to meet John L.

The rule that a man must fight every time money is posted has not held good for rears. Corbett has money up to meet Fitz, ut Fitz is taking his time. Maher ‘has monéy up to fight Corbett, but the latter refuses to meet the Irish champion. Shar” key and Choynski can get backing to meet any man, but they have I ttle success. have $1000 forfeit up to meet either Fitz or Corbett, and that shows I also mean busi- ness. Parson Davies’ long suit is Joe Choynski, and should the latter get a chance to figh any man, the ger . Gk the corbal | jcognomen would be to him as his relations, for there can be no question but that there exists a rea] friendship between the men, and not a personal regard for “revenue only’’ as marks so many manager- fighter combinations. Maher and Sharkey are abusing each other like pickpockets, one claiming that the other is afraid to fight, and the other asserting that he is the champion of all the maulers, Tom O'Rourke hae been thrown down by the sports and politicians of New York, for the fighting club privileges have been given Warren Lewis, one of the best known men in the Eastern sporting circuit. Lewis will have protection, though he is a Democrat, and O’Rourke, who was supposed to have “stood in,” gets nothing but experience. THE SOUTH’S MIDGET. Little Frank Frayne Comes Here to Ride Against the Big Cyclists. The advance guard to Saturday night's bicycle tournament arrived on Monday, when Jay Eaton, the indoor king, got here from New York. Stnce Eaton’s arrival others have come in quietly and this» morning there was a bunch of arrivals. Frank Frayne, W. T. Anderson and Joe Quinn from Memphis, Repine and Preston from Nashville and Walthauer from At- lanta reported at L. A. W. headquarters this morning. All have come to take part in Saturday night’s tournament. Frayne is the most interesting of this group of riders. He is only 15 years of age, but for all that is said to be a wonder, Walthauer is the present champion of the South and Repine the ex-champion. Soon after their arrival all of the above riders were out at the Coliseum looking at the new track, and every one of the lot pronounced it the best and fastest they had ever seen, There was nothing new to report this mroning about the challenge sent out by Eaton through the Post-Dispatch to ride ‘any cyclist in the world an indoor match, except the news from New York that Sen- ator Morgan had accepted the challenge in behalf of Charles Kaser, and was going to put up his $500 to-day. If he puts it up Eaton and his friends will cover it in double- quick time, At Pascale’s Tournament, Fred Doerr and Adam Koh! will box and Gus Zilm and Fred Doerr will wrestle at Pascales tournament on Sund night. Jimmy Murray, who ts the champion light- weght of Ohio and Indiana, will also ap- ear in a bagpunching contest and in a out with his trainer. Billy Thompson in Town. Billy Thompson, who mana Charley Mitchell when the latter fought Corbett in Florida, was in St. Louls this morning en route to Denver. He has been trying to make a match recently between Mitchell and McCoy. Thompson was the manager of an opera company at Uhrig’s Cave years ago, and during his stopover this mere he p@t and shook hands with many ol friends. The Oak Juniors.

Giese, The St. Louis anti-high hat theater ordi- nance has some original features in it, and subject the city fathers think they have evolved a measure that will stand the test of law and give adequate relief. It is the only ant!-high hat ordinance that has ever provided a penalty against the the- ater manager as well as the theater-goer, and whether the manager wishes to risk his popularity or not he ‘dare not permit the law be violated. _ The bill will be taken up in the Council next week, and as Councilman Hagan has championed several measures of the kind which failed in the House, it is said he will encunter little trouble in piloting the meas- ure through the Council, now that the House is in line, The important sections of the ordinance follow: Sec. 1.

ATLANTA, Ga., Jan. 2.—If only the Ger- man scientist had come along earlier with his theory as to the determ'nation of sex, why then Henry Chastain and his young wife might now be living happily together, and the coming of a little ‘‘dud’”’ of a girl baby might now be lighting smiles in her mother’s face instead of drawing tears into her eyes. Men have left wife and home for many reasons heretofore, but none before Chas- tain had left a pretty, youthful, loving wo- man and a new born child, the pledge of that love, because of the sex of the child. And because of that strange desertion this strange father hag been a prisoner {n Ful- ton County Jalil, and since has attempted Up to a short while ago he lived in happiness with his bride. They were favorably known in the circles in which they moved and their friends and neighbors were dumfound- that the husband his own life. Chastain married about a year ago. ed to learn the other da was in jail, charged with wife desertion, and that he stubbornly maintained his in- tention of remain'ng away from the bosom of his family. His action was al] the more inexplicable from the fact that on Dec. 10 a bright HMttle cherub of a girl, whom the the image of her neighbors pronounced father, came into h's home. °* All possible motives were canvassed to ac- count for his indifference, until at last the keynote was struck from a semi-admission In a rambling talk d he confessed that he had hoped for a &on and heir which Providence He had worked hard for years, he said, to accumulate sav- of the father himself. with a frien has, as yet, denied to him. ings which he could leave to a male child, who would bear and perpetuate his name. When it became evident that Mrs. Chastain Was approaching maternity, anxiety as to the sex of the child so filled the prospective father’s mind that he could not rest content at home. He left his wife and went from one boarding place to another, vainly seek- | prived her of her husband in her happiest ‘hour. She sent loving messages by friends, 'urging the absent one to return. but he did ‘not reply with a word of comfort. For three | days Mrs. Chastain endured this uncer- ‘tainty, and then resentment got the upper hand and she had a warrant sworn out for the faithless man, charging him with de- sertion. It was served and Chastain thrown behind the bars. While he would make no direct confession, he said enough to intimate friends to justify the belief that his disap- pointment as to the child’s sex was so Keen that he did not care \o see it or the mother. “I don’t believe they can do anything with me for acting as I am going, and have reasons which I think sufftclent,’’ he said. “I always loved my wife right encugh, and I haven’t a thing in the world against the baby. Finally, when tmprisonment for years faced the disappointed and obstinate man, he awakened. On his solemn promise that he would return to the support of his family, the case aga‘nst him was dismissed. Under this stress he returned to his home, regarding the newcomer with an express.on of stolid indifference. The reception which Chastain met from his wife was frigid. A northeast January wind is warm !n comparison with his wife's demeanor. Heartsick, broken-spirited and almost ir- responsible, he bought a liberal supply of laudanum and entering a saloon, swallowed it at one gulp. Then came ae. terrific struggle for his lHfe, during which physi- clans almost gave up in despa’r. And now the robust, rollicking man of six months ago is a languid, listless invalid, brooding over the wrong he thinks nature has done to him and nursing the disappointed feeling that induced h!m to leave a faithful. wife — noe like @ nomad until he was lodged na cell. Chastain, after much persuasion, induced to-day to talk of his sorrow. “A man like me,” he said, “who deprived h'mself of all pleasure and scraped and saved, hoping that some day God’'d give him a boy to take his name and any little money that mighter been saved, jest simply has the life taken outer him when he’s told that was ever, to make all dealers pay who remain net within a licensed theater in the city of St. Louis during the time of performance or during the rendition of any programme on the stage or platform, but every such hat or bonnet shall be removed from the head = during the time of such programme or performance; pro- vided, however, the above exhibitions shall not be held to include skull caps, lace cover- ings, or other small and closely fitting head dress, which does not interfere with the view of the stage or persons in the rear of such wearer.

Section 6 provides a police court trial as in other cases, Section 8 declares that any manager of a licensed theater who violates section 2 shall be fined not less than $10 nor more than $25. FEW BICYCLE LICENSES And Almost as Few Saloon Licenses ° Are Taken Out. Despite the fact that all saloon licenses expired Jan. 1, only 600 new ones were taken out up to Thursday. Last year there were about two thousand licensed saloons, but this year the Commissioner does not expect that number. : He estimates that there will be about eighteen hundred. This is disappointing to him, as it means a decrease in the fees of his office of several thousand dollars. The Commissioner is determined, how- in the business. He has issued an order that Feb. 3 will be the last day of grace. it isn’t a boy after all, and only a pore, All who have not paid by that day will E WATCHED — TIM HOGAN AND HIS GANG ARE SAID TO BE IN S8T. ovis. BUSINESS MEN ARE WARNED. The Arrivals Are Clever Rascals, Who Rob Mail Boxes and Operate With “Raised” Checks, ’ A gang of crooks, headed by the notori- ous. Tim Hogan, have arrived in St.- Louis from the East. Chief Desmond has been advised of their coming. and has ordered his men to be és- pecialy vigilant. The gang is supposed to consist of a dozen or fifteen. The American Bankers’ Association has sent out circular letters to St. Louis bank- ers and merchants, warning them to exer- cise unusual caution in cashing checks. The favorite plan of the Hogan gang is to loot .mail boxes and take checks from business letters. By means of chemicals figures are raised to suit. The work is so skillfully executed that detection is diffi- cult. The crooks are so bold that they go direct to the banks to have their ill-gotten checks cashed. This is the plan successfully worked by the gang in New York, Chicago and other cities and Chief Desmond is guessing that the same tactics will be attempted here. Every available detective has been de- tailed and all of the banks are shadowed. If there is any attempt on the part of Hogan and his gang, arrests are expected. Tim Hogan's first lieutenant is his broth- er, Jim. Both of them have served time for forgeries and thefts of various kinds. They belong to the higher order of crooks, They dress well and have the manners of gentle- men. No petty crime has ever been charged against them, HIT WITH A MONKEY WRENCH. Benjamin Bender’s Spree May End in a Livery Foreman’s Death. Benjamin Bender, an employe fn John Hahn’s livery stable, 2929 South Jefferson avenue, took out a carriage Dec. 31. He came back at midnight drunk and raised a disturbance at the stable. He broke down the door and he pulled down the-gas fix- tures. Foreman Alexander Underriner and his wife live over the stable. The foreman got out of bed and went downstairs. He threw Bender out on the pavement after a fight in which he was struck. Dr. Smith of 2106 South ‘Broadway said Underriner’s skull was fractured. “You have been hit on the head with a monkey ench,’’ the docton said. ‘You must be careful or bad results will follow.”’ The foreman was finally sent to St. Mary’s Infirmary.

She stopped to discuss neighborhood affairs and left. her back door open. She saw things were gone and sought’‘a policeman, but found none. ; But Mrs. Hanna got the burglar after all. She says she yanked him from his hiding place. He was Will Price, a neighbor’s son, Mrs. Hanna says. She yelled “‘police,”’ and Mrs. Price came.

Brunsman said at noon Thurs- day he was confident Simons would find acceptable bail and that by night he would be free to go to his family at 1324 Benton Street.

C., Jan. 3.—The re- sult of the election in Louisiana Is giving President McKinley serious concern. The total Republican vote cast was less than 2,800. At the State election last fall the Republicans polled more than $2,000. Letters have been pouring into the White House in the last few days in which it is asserted that the collapse of the party is due to the appointment of the motorious Demas to be Naval Officer at New Orleans and the threatened appointment of his equally discredited associates, Wimberley and Cohen, to be Collector and Surveyor of the Port, respectively. Demas and Cohen have come to Washing- ton to push themselves along. Demas is a negro of the darkest hue, jaunty in manner and with fine raiment. is hat sits rakishly on h‘s head at an angle of 45 degrees. Cohen is a white man with an oriental cast of teatures.

Demas explained that he had called to ascertain when the committee would con- sider his appointment. “What appointment?” inquired Senator rye. “Why, I am Mr, Demas, who has been nom nated for naval officer at New Or- eans. Senator Frye answered that he would call the committee on Thursday and that the date of a hearing would be fixed then, so that the charges against Demas could be considered. Demas rolled hia eyes, glanced at Cohen, And exclaimed: “What charges, Senator?”’ “There are a number of serious charges,” said Mr. Frye, “and I am informed there are more to come. There is a deputa- tion of aye from New Orleans who wish to be heard, and I shall give them an opportunity.” Demas endeavored to appear ingenuous, “What shall I do?” he inquired, “How long shall I have to wa'‘t?’’ Senator Frye suggested that he return to New Orleans, and said that he would notify him when it was time for him to appear before the committee.

Attorney Henry Watson raised a ‘new Question of law in the Court of Criminal Correction Thursday morning. _His client, Laura Lee, was acquittéd by a jury in the Police Court on a misdemeanor charge and the city took an appeal. When the case was called in the Court of Criminal Correction Thursday Mr. Watson raired the point that the court had no juris- diction on the ground that the city had no right to an ta and that his client could not be twice placed in jeopardy. _ Mr. Watson relies on the Supreme Court decision that the right of appeal is statu- tory and that in all references to the modes of appeal the statutes say ‘‘the defendant shall, the defendant may," etc., and not in one instance does the word city or State or plaintif!’ appear. He further holds that for the city to appeal is in conflict with the @tatute providing that no one shall be placed twice in jeopardy. The point has never been raised in the Court of Criminal!

SEVENTEEN RELATIVES THERE. A Gale and Hearty Husband and a Wife Who for Years Has En- joyed Perfect Health. ‘ Judge and Mrs, Joshua Houston of 4013 Delmar boulevard gave a dinner party Wednesday evening to 17 of their near rela- tives and intimate friends, to celebrate their 50th or golden wedding anniversary. The Houston residence was prettily deéc- orated with evergreens and pink roses, and the evening was passed enjoyably. Judge and Mrs. Houston have but two children living, a son, Albert Houston, whose home is in San Francisco, and a daughter, Mrs. G. G. Williams of this city, whe will be remembered as Miss Ella Houston. Albert Houston of Gan Francisco is married and has two sons, of whom the eldest, Albert J. Houston, Jr., is engaged to be married to a well-known St. Louis society girl. Mrs. Albert Houston, Sr., is at presefit the guest of Judge and ‘Mrs. Houston, with whom She will rcenain until March 1.

Mrs. Houston is a sister of Mrs. Ella par 4 and Mrs. Harry Hodgen of Thornby ce, Judge Joshua Houston was born on the eastern shore of Maryland, and came to Bt. Louts in 1840, and in this city began to study law. In 1846 he went to visit the Riffle fam- ily, who were well-known at that time, in Lincoln County, Mo., and two years later he was married, by Parson Melkes. of tbe old Christian Church, to pretty Sue Riffle, who was the belle and beauty of the com- munity. A number of years later Joshua Houston was elected Judge of the County Court where he “reigned supreme’”’ until the early seventies. To-day this fine old gentleman is as strong and healthy and as youthful in appearance as a vigorous man twenty-five years his junior. e is tall and as straight as an ar- row, and his clear, deep-set eyes gleam from beneath a high, broad brow. Time has crowned him with silver, but his thick, Shagey locks grow in a wavy abundance that defies the ‘“‘march of the centuries.” Mrs. Houston, Sr., is a fitting mate for the grand old man. She isin perfect health, and has not been ill for many years, Al- ’ though her ‘hair is quite gray, her eyes are bright as diamonds, and her complexion clear and ruddy. In appearance she looks, perhaps fifty years of age, but not a month er. This splendid old couple have occupied their present home on Delmar avenue for the past twenty-five years.

MANY SUITS BEING FILED. Saturday Is the Last Day for the Feb- ruary Term. Saturday will be the last day for filing suits to the February term of the Circuit so all the lawyers who have suits ing move toward the uite a bat SS ae ak > er —S ae WOULD BUY A CAPITOL, Henry H. Lloyd Believes in Preserv- ing Historic Buildings. ——_—— Henry H. Lioyd, Assistant Secretary and General Claim Agent of the Wabash Rail- road, whose office is in the Century Build- ing, Proposes to buy the first Capitol of the ie and present it to the Daughters of the Republic of Texas. i Mr, Lloyd is in ‘New York this week, but a & letter to Hon. William T. Austin of alveston he made his offer. € writes that he thinks it would be a great oversight to allow so historic a build- ing to go to destruction through exposure to the elements. He is especially interested in Brazoria County matters, not alone be- cause he has property there, but because of family associations. I would undertake,” he writes, “to pur- chase the Capitol, rehabilitate it so far as could be done without destroying its orig- inal characteristics, and then donate it to the association. I would move it to, say, Alvin, which is easy of access from all points, and through which many people are constantly passing, and that I would erect it there upon a block of land which own, and would then give the entire prop- erty, block and building, to this associa- tion, probably arranging to have the plot of ground put in attractive shape, so that both building and the land on which it stood would constitute an attractive mon- ument. “My idea would be to have scene compe- tent carpenters go there and carefully take the building apart and move it to the block of which I speak at Alvin, setting’ it up ex- actly as it was before and using as little material as possible. Then, as a preserva- tion against further decay, the building should probably be well and thoroughly painted, and when that is accomplished and the property is set out in an attractive shape with a fence around it and some shrubbery planted, I would execute 4 deed for it to the association.”’ A FIGHT WITH MORPHINE, Dr. S. C. Berry Believes He Can Con- quer the Habit That Binds Him. Dr. S. C. Berry of Bridgeton, Mo., 54 years old, has been a victim of the morphine habit for 20 years. He has now determined to fight against the drug and is at the City Hospital for treatment, One misstep, when he was an inexper!l- enced young doctor, cost two lives, broke up a home and made of him a morphine fiend. This is his story and the sequel is that he resorted to the drug to drive away remoreée. Once started, he could not stop, and he added the whisky habit to the other. “I began with moderate doses,” says Dr. Berry, ‘‘but soon increased them until] I got to taking half a bottle a day. I have neither increased nor diminished this quan- tity for the last eight years. A bottle lasts me two days, no longer. Twelve years ago I began drinking a pint of whisky a day. I have not increased or diminished that quan- tity, and have never been drunk. “Eight years ago I quit morphine for three weeks, A severe hemorrhage from the stomach followed and I suffered such pains that 1 was forced to return to the drug. ‘“‘Now I want to be a free man again, and I believe under medical treatment I can conquer the habit. If I do 1 will never re- turn to it.’’ RETAIL BUTCHERS RETALIATE. They Will Establish a Co-Operative , Commission House and Patronize It.

Brolaski has filed a suit in the Circuit Court against the L. A. Thompson Scenic Railway Co. and L. A. Thompson for $4800. He claims the Scenic Railway Co. owes him for services. Mr. Brolaski says that when Thompson came here to find suitable sites for his railways he engaged Mr. Brolaski to find a place and introduce him to persons who would put up money to build the roads. Mr. Brolaski says that as a result of his efforts contracts were made for scenic railroads at the Suburban Gar- den and at Forest Park Highlands. He asks $2600 for his services in the Suburban and $2300 in the Forest Park Highlands case. SHOT TRUST MEN WEAKEN. The Independent Companies Have Cut Prices Away Down.

LOUIS, January 18, 1898. ‘To the Board of Directors of the Merchants’ lAfe Association of the United States: Gentlemen—At the annual meeting of the members of the association on the 1lth inst. for the election of Directors for the ensuing year, the following gentlemen were elected: TMoger P. Annan, Geo.-D. Barnard, Chas. W. Barstow, Hon. Richard Bartholdt, A. C, Bernays, F. W. Biebinger, Jas. L. Blair, C. R. Blake, Geo. W. Cale, Murray Carleton, J. B. Case, C. M. Christy, Hon. Seth W.

J. ‘Wertheimer, J. C. Wilkinson, Hon, J. E. Withrow. _ It is the duty of the board-elect to organ- '§ze by electing a President, Vice-President, General Manager, Secretary, Assistant Sec- retary, Medical Director, Attorney, Execu- ‘tive Committee of seven, Investment Com- gsnittee of three and an Auditing Committee of three for the ensuing year. We hand you herewith for your consideration the annual ‘gtatement of the association at the close of ‘business December 81, 1897, ag certified by the Auditing Committee. The premium and interest income for 1897 has been $146,683.37, ‘against $86,594.30 for the previous year end- ding December 31, 1896; showing an increase ‘of 69 per cent. The amount of insurance in force December ..8i, 1897, after deducting Japses, was $8,506,000 ,against $6,332,500 at ithe end of the previous year, December 81, . 19896; showing an increase in the amount in force of 3% per cent. Our surplus of $138,- |693.57, which has been saved to meet policies (gmaturing in excess of current mortality, lghows a «satisfactory and healthy increase. ‘\Aftor deducting expenses for obtaining new business, which is paid but once out of the first annual premium, you will find the ex- pense of management to be $18,296.20, being much less than that of any old line, And. even less than any Natural] Premium Asso-. olation, unless proportionately In an excep- tional case where the amount in force is very large and the business well established. ‘All death claims for the current year, amounting to $74,000, have been promptly paid, it being the policy of the committee not to allow clatms of any kind to accumu- fate. On account of the increased and rap- idly increasing business of the association, the committee found it necessary to change our general offices to our present very desir- ‘able quarters in the Century Bullding. The general policy form of the association has been recently amended, making it obliga- tory on the part of the assoclation to deposit the entire premium income of the associa- tion in trust (except what may be used from first annual premiums for expense of new business and the expense portion of $4 per thousand from subsequent annual pre- -miums) to be held exclusively with interest ‘earnings ag a guarantee for the redemp- tion of policies. As the amount of this de- posit, according to past experience of life dnsurance companies, is sufficient the asso- clation’s ability to meet its contracts at ma- furity is self-evident. Respectfully submitted, LEO RASSIECUR, J. H. CONRADES, CHAS. F. WPENNEKER, JAS. F. EWING, H. DAUGHADAY, RICHARD J. COMPTON,’ JAS. F. COYLE, Executive Committee.

She Says They Were Married in Ba- varia and Refuses to Tell the Little One’s Name. August Bauer, charged with burning alive the 65-year-old daughter of the woman who is known as his wife, says he will never live to stand trial for the crime. He declares he is only awaiting an opportunity to commit auicide. Capt. O’Malley of the Central Police Sta- tiom has ordered extra precaution to see that no opportunity is allowed the frantic prisoner to gestroy his life. While Bauer raves like a madman in the holdover, his reputed wife, the mother of the child who was burned, tosses wildly on a bed in St. Mary’s Infirmary, Fifteenth and Papin streets. She was taken there immediately after the inquest Wednesday. A reporter for the Post-Dispatch ca led at the infirma Thursday. he young mother was half asleep. The = upturned face was pretty in its girlishness. When an attendant spoke to her she was startled. To questions she replied: “IT love August better than my own life and I loved my darling baby, Annie. have loved August since I wag a little girl and he was a littl boy.
