WASHINGTON, April 1.—The deepest gloom pervades thie 4 Capitol Congress knows that Premier Sagasta has evaded a direct answer to the President’s demands, and nothing seems left but action. A message from the President is looked for soon. “ Many members of Congress were on hand at the White House from 11 o’clock last might, when the Spanish reply began to come in by cable, until 8 o’clock this morning, when the last word of it‘had been received and translated from the cipher code. A formal Cabinet meeting was called this morning, and the Spanish sory was again read. It is a most unsatisfactory message. The trouble, according to those who have seen it, is not so»much in its rejection of any proposition advanced by the President, as its utter neglect to answer any of the questions asked. The chief proposition by the United States was the immediate and complete independence of Cuba. This was sidetracked by Premier Sagasta, who, by counter- propositions, all of which asked for more delay, succeeded in avoiding a definite statement as to anything. The question which confronted the Cabinet to- ‘. was as to tis answer should be made to the note. The President personally favors more, delay and still more diplomatic efforts. Aside fram the granting of the delay asked by Spain, there is only one thing, diplomats say, which the United States. can do. That is the forwatding of an ultimatum, which. must. bé*answered spécifically : by Spain within twenty-four hours. In the event of a failure om Spain’s part to answer such an ultimatum or a rejection by her of its proposition, the President: will suggest to Congress the advisability of recognizing the independence of Cuba and the forcing of that recognition by a warlike demonstration. Then would come the formal detlaration of ‘war. : But before this is made it is likely that offers of mediation would come from some of the European powers, but such offers are not made until formal relations between two countries have been ended, so that any action of this kind would not come before Monday, even if it is made then. The State Department and the Spanish Legation maintained an outward. air of serenity to-day, despite the critical situation whith exists. The Spanish Minister, Senor Polo, maintains his usual serenity and denied to-day the story that he was packing up his household goods preparatory to leaving the country. The story was supported by the fact that servantd were busy in the Legation until 3 o'clock this. morning. During the morning the members of the House met at the Capitol and infor- mally discussed the situation. There was nothing but war talk on everv hand, but it was generally agreed that the promise to give the President until Monday before. taking action should. be lived up to. In spite of this there were many dissenters who held that now the Spanish reply had been received there is no need for online eee, 6 THE PRESIDENT INFORMED THAT CONGRESS WILL ACT. WASHINGTON, April 1.—Senafors and members of Congress who ’saw the]. President to-day told him that it was not possible for Congress to delay the Cuban question beyond Monday; that if Spain had asked further time it would serve only to increase the unéasiness in Congress. the Administration wotld be granted further time. nad >?

The impotence of this once great newspaper in handling this great news event was pathetic. It was the most conspicuous and ridiculous fall-down in the history of American journalism and made the Globe-Bemocrat the laughing stock of the newspaper profession and the reading public. When it sees its prestige swept away and its circulation falling;; when it is rapped by its readers and feels the sting of public contempt, nothing is left it but envious alle and impotent rage. But it st} ould not permit its rage to lead it into such folly as silly references to the imprisonment of editors during the war—years before the birth of the Post-Dispatch and present New York World —-for the purpose of misleading the public and creating a falge impression about the management of the Post-Dispatch and the New York World. Prudence should save it from such lying in view of its own criminal past. It ought to remem- ber its own proprietor, who was convicted of defrauding the Government, It ought to bear in mind its own foundation of whisky ring robbery which made it necessary for the paper to be edited from jail. = = = a POLICE UNDER THE CHARTER. There is nothing in the City Charter giving the Police Board power to make removals and promotions at pleasure, even when a patrolman or officer has served his time, provided hfs recordis good. The charter, Sec. 6, art. 29\says: The policemen shall be employed to serve four years and are subject to removal only for cause, after a hearing by the board, who are hereby invested with exclusive jurisdiction in the premises. Any policeman whose term of service shall expire and who, dur- ing his appointment, shall have faithfully performed his duty, shall, if otherwise qualified, be preferred by the board in making their new appointments. | This means that during his first four years term, If a police- man behaves himself and is efficient, he cannot be removed. It means that when His four years term is up, if he has madea good record, the Board is bound to reappoint him for a new term of four years, in preference to anybody else, and during the second or any following term of service, the same rule would apply as to removal for cause only. The Board has absolutely no legal excuse for passing a reso- lution making policemen removable at its pleasure. But, as the Post-Dispatch has said, the Board is evidently determined to convert the Police Department into an instrument to serve private ends. To accomplish this the department must be put on a Russian basis. What have the people to say to this plan? Are we to understand that the Russianizing of the police has } the sanction of Gov. Stephens? _ Queen = | i is The Post-Dispatch’s magnificent achievement in gathering and publishing the first, fullest and most accurate news of guished recognition from the public.

Last Sunday the circulation attained a figure un- paralleled in. the history of*St. Louis journalism. It was 130,531 copies.

TO MAKE DIAMONDS. From “Diamond Talk,” in Godey’s Maga- zine for April. In order to make artificial diamonds it was first necessary to analyze genuine ones, and even to dissolve them. The largest manu- factured diamond on record is less than one-twentieth of an inch in diameter, while the majority are only half this size. The chemist did not hold his discovery secret; he divulged it to the Royal Sogiety, and members proceeded to imitate him in his fascinating work. They took pure iron and placed it in a carbon crucible with pure charcoal fren sugar, and an electric fur- nace and a powerful arc quickly melted the iron and mixed ji, with carbon. An intense heat is applied to* 1e liquid mass for a few minutes. and ther it is plunged into .cold water. The iron in cooling passes from the liquid to the solid state, and the force ex- erted by the metal in its rapid expansion is tremendous. It is under this pressure that the carbon is separated into trans- arent crystalline form. These small crys- als are the diamonds.

Never since war was declared with Spain was there such excitement in St. Louis as was seen on the morning of May 1, 1898. The bombardment and capture of Havana had stirred men’s souls to theif depths, and news of subsequent American victories on the island of Cuba had caused unbound- ed enthusiasm. But on the date mentioned some event appeared to have happened within the city itself that had excited the interest of its population to the uttermost, The streets were filled with hurrying throngs, making in one direction. No one seemed to know precisely what they were hastening to see, but every one seemed con- vineed that it was something of the grav- est importance. Such ‘trifies as a display of laundry hung in a window or a kite flying overhead have often been known to gather a gaping multitude in times m profound peace, Con- sidering the extreme tension of the popular mind in war times, it would not be won- ‘ierful if some matter equally trivial should attract excessive attention. Some said, as they shoved their way along, that a flo- tilla of Spanish gunboats had stolen up the Mississippi River and had reached St. Louis Others asserted that a strong force of Span- jards, who had aneakeli in, disguised and in small parties, by way of Mexico, had en- tered the city. The point of attraction was soon to be found at the Federal Building. The thoroughfares surrounding that edifice were packed tightly with people. Traffic was completely suspended. A sea of faces was turried upward. The object that com- manded such rapt attention was epparent. Circling *around slowly, at a height of lees than 60 feet above the- roof of Uncle Sam’s local place of business, was an alir- ship, shaped like.a gigantic bird.

Ih’ similarity was increas¢d by the pale slate color of its exterior. All 'this made the name “Dove,” displayed in large letters upon the breast of the airship, secm happily chosen. The whirr of a screw that rotated in front, and the rhythmieal swish of two pairs of wings that fell and rose with a “feather- ing’’ motion on éither side of the air-craft, could be heard distinctly. Her course was guided by a fan-shaped rudder that moved about gracefully at the required angle. A large silken .banner of the United States floated from a pole, and a string of signal flags fluttered from halyards, amidships. Underneath the airship were two smal) tri- ods, presumably for the purpose of alight- ng upon, that looked like the upraised feet of a flying bird, The gazing concourse viewed the wonder in spellbound gilence.

Before she vanished from sight, as though to demonstrate the. propriety of her name, the Dove released several pigeons, that performed almost the same aerial evo- lutions as she, before starting for their des- tination. When the strain was removed a babel of voices broke the oppressive silence. Speculation of the most diverse and wildly imaginative kind prevailed. Every wise- acre had a different story regarding the origin and the mission of the midair cruiser. Finally the facts were made public. The Dove had been built for the United States Government in a remote nook among the Ozarks. Under the command of her inven- tor, Capt. U. Otis, she Was now bound for the Atlantic Coast to operate against the Spanish fleet that had suddenly appeared in force off New York City. The nature of her armament and the éx- tent of her destructive power were not stated. It was hinted, however, that if she got the drop on the hostile. vessels she would probably pat more Spaftish families ante. mourning than could. find crepe in yain. he secret of her construction, and in- deed the fact of her existence, had been marvelously well képt. This, the military authorities appeared to regard with par- ticular satisfaction. They evidertly de- sired that the Dove, whatever her special work might be, should come as a complete surprise, The popular interest in the epoch making and most opportune invention was unbounded; and the curiosity felt regarding the outcome of her arrival at the seat of war was intense. l The Post-Dispatch's account, printed tn St. Louls two days iater, was clear and simple, and uately conveyed the marvelous tidings. The Dove h ched the Atlantic coast in less than 12 hours. She had arrived in the nick of time, The fleets of the United States and Spain were already engaged off Sandy Hook. United States battleships and cruisers were Viispos- ing of the Spanish warships of their own class handily enough; but were ‘suffering equal damage from the Spanish torpedo eraft. These were charging in mad despera.- tion and with fatal effeet upon the opposin vessels. Three United States ships had ai- ready succumbed to their attacks. The Furor had sunk the Brooklyn, the Ariete the Min- neapolig and the Proserpina had disabled ene rendered unmanageable the Massaichu- Betts. The Dove at this juncture arrived over- head unnoticed by any of the combatants. Circling siowly high in the sky she-ecould not, without the aid of a teleseépe, be dis- tinguished from 4 soaring seagull. The first warning of her presence was iven by t whole school of stilent Spanish to 0 boats exploding in rapid succession without apparent cAuse, This posnemens: occurrence silenced the din of attle abruptly.

The Unit States ships promptly lowered their boats to rescue their drowning enemies. The means of destruction appmed as idng boats was a mystery to friend and foe alike. It was not until the Dove had alighted on the deck of the monitor Puritan that even the United States officers learned that the havoc had been wrought by means of pro- jected electricity that had exploded the torpedo boats bodily. They had been “‘hoist with their owfi petards,” so to speak. Capt.

OF ST. LOUIS JOINS THE COMBINE. TERMS NOT GIVEN’ OUT. Plant Is Located on Papin Stieet and Was Partly Destroyed by the Cyclone, ee ee The American Steel and Wire Co., the new trust that controls about 75 per cent of the country’s total output of wire prod- ucts, took charge Friday of the Co nsoli- dated Steel and Wire Co. of St. Louis. The officers of the company are W. Eden- horn of €hicago, President; A. Clifford of St. Louis, Treasurer, and D. A. Merriman, Manager. At the offices, 1935 Papin street, it was stated that there had been no change in the force in charge, but as the first officers and controlling stockholders resided in Chi- cago, it would be impossible to foretell the purchasing company’s intentions, The local plant is situated along Papin street, from 1935 to Twenty-first street. It was partially destroyed by the tornado and has but recently been fully rebuilt, There has been no work done there since Sep- tember. From four hundred to six bundred men were employed prior to the shut-down. It is said that a majority of these, all that cared to go, were put to°work in Joliet mills. The local force declare they have ‘no knowledge of the time of the selling of the plant, as all that was arranged in Chicago. The Consolidated company succeeded the St. Louis Wire Mill Co. about five years ago. The trust has now secured mills in Pitts- burg, Allentown and Beaver Falls, Pa., two in Joliet, Ill., one in St. Louis and three in Cleveland. In the last city the plants of the H. P. Nail Co., American Wire and Steel Co. and Consolidated Steel and Wire Co. were se- cured Friday and notice posted discharg- ing all employes. It is estimated that 3000 men in Cleveland are thus thrown out of em- ployment. The American Steel and Wire Co.—the trust—has notified the men that all applica- tions for reinstatement must be in by the 9th of April. A HEARING ON APRIL 22. Lindell Avenue Reconstruction Will Then Be Taken Up. The Board of Public Improvements will have the first public hearing in its quarters in the new City Hall April 22 at 10 o’clock in the morning. That time! was set at the meeting of the board Friday for a hearing on the board's motions for! the reconstruc- tion of Lindell avenue from Grand to Van- deventer avenues and from Vandeventer to Boyle avenues. The board had a hearing'on a motion to reconstruct the whole distance, but the re- monstrance was so strong that it was thought best to divide it and try again. The meeting room of the board in the new hall will be in room 200, at the northeast corner of the third floor. WANT THE REMAINDER. A Trust Company Su'‘ng for $1,766,- 653 in Duiuth.

COAL OPERATORS’ CONFERENCE They Cannot Reach en Agreement Re- garding the New Price. local coal operators and dealers held @ long conference Friday afternoon to deter- mine how to meet the advance wage scale which was recently ratified at miners’ meet- ings in Chicago and Columbus. here was a gathering of dealers in the of- fices of Donk Brothers Coal and Coke Co. and the situation was carefully gone over. At 2 o'clock the statement was made that no information would be given to the pub- lic before evening “We have not Geen able to get together,” explained one gentleman, nothing yet. I1 cannot anticipate the re- sult of the conference.”’ The new schedule provides that shall receive 40 cents per ton, a 3-cent ad- vance over the old rate. Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania. Kentucky and Mis- souri are affected by this readjustment. Whether this advance in miners’ wages means an increase in the price of coal is to be determined by the dealers’ conference. ONLY HIGH-GRADE PRINTING. The Next Mayor’s Message Will Be a Typographical Work of Art. The next Mayor’s message and accom- panying documents, printed at the expense of the city of St. Louis, will be a work of art from a t fpographical standpoint. City Register Besch is advertisiing for bids for printing 1000 copies. Attached to OT co advertisement is a resolution, recently adopted by the House of Delegates, requir- ing that the work must conform to a first- Clasg standard, otherwise it will be re- ject The ‘resolution was introduced at the in- stance of members of Typographical Union, No. 8, who complain that the typographical work on the past few reports has been very inferior. There has been no complaint on the binding or the paper. SPANISH FOURS TEND DOWNWARD.

Details of Accident Which Befell Hart of Last Year’s St. Louis Team. When Billy Hart, the pitcher of last year’s St. Louis Browns, was released from the home team last fall and signed by Pittsburg ined that good luck had’ overtaken é€ was mistaken, fo® an accident efell him while at practice last week may put him out of the game ‘for good. Of that accident the Pittsburg News says: ‘‘The accident to Billy Hart yesterday, the result ‘| of stopping a hot sizzling liner with his jaw- bone, will be regretted quite as much by the home cranks as by the unfortunate pitcher, even if we don’t have to take our beer through a straw as Billy probably will be compelled to take his for a few days at Ieasi. That class of accident is one’of the’ rarest on the ball fleld, which in itself is re- markable considering the proximity of the pitcher to the batsman and his position right in front of the bat. Jim Hughey was struck above thé eye in oné of the Chicago | peg last year by a volt liner from arry McCormick's bat, which laid him out on the cold, cold ground for a spell. Pitchers are simply lucky in not getting hit oftener. Probably the same sort of accident has never happened to two pitchers before in all the time the game has - been played, though in the days of the old “‘bounding- rock’’ pattern of ball the pitchers had to take a good many knocks.’ * Caught on the Fly.

You can’t always tell a fighting dog Dy his looks. A rat-tailed terrier will sometimes eat up a crop-tailed, broad-shouldered bull dog. On the race track you sometimes see @ short-barrelled, short-legged . animal get away with a field of good-looking horses. And what is true in this respect of dogs and horses is true of men. When George Kerwin, the Chicago box- ing enystery, and Ed Lally, the champion lightweight of St. Louis, stepped in the ring at East St. Louis last night appear- ences were all in favor of the St. Louisan. He appearéd to have the advantage of his opponent in weight, height,- reach and all other points which in & pugilistic en- counter mean so nmruch, The St. Louis boy had scarcely sicod up in the center of the ring to shake hands with his opponent -than all hands noticed the advantage he had in generai build. But comparisons’ ended then and there. From that point, indeed, they were odious, Kerwin proving himself Lally’s muster at all points of the boxing game and appearing to hold his man safe at all stages of the encounter. Lally’s stand against the Chicagocn was, in fact, a bitter disappointment to his hun- dreds of friends. He maitle a miserabie showmsg and the old fire, dash and vin which ‘he has exhibited in all his previous fights Were last night totally lacking. lt might have been stage fright or the peculiar style adopted by Kerwin that rat- tled Lally, but one thing is certain, his blows last night were not backed by the old steam and at no point of the proceed- ings did he appear to have the ghost of a chance, Kerwin fights more like Fitzsimmons than any man in the ring to-day. He leans +well forward and, instead of dancing away from his opponent, is always on the ag- gressive, In the very first round last night he pressed Laliy so hard that the latter was forced to sprint out of harm’s way. Only once in the fight did Lally appear to have a ‘“‘peep.’’ That was in the second round, when, after a lively mix-up in one corner, Kerwin fell down. [t looked like a knock-down,* but it was only a slip, anda second later Kerwin was on his feet again and fighting furiously. : In the third Kerwin went in to finish Lally. In the last 30 seconds of that round Wer- win rained a shower of blows on Lally’s head .and face and aa the gong sounded Lallw’sank back in his corner thoroughly ex- hausted and aii but out. The rapid work told on Kerwin somewhat and in the fourth round he was unable to finish his man. Lally, on the other hand, appeared to have caught his second wind and from the fourth to,the sighth, the clos- ing round of the batile, he did better. Still, while the fight lasted he continually clinched to escape punishment and Referee Tim Hurst was kept busy separating the men and trying’ to get them to fight instead of wrestle Hurst’s decision tn giving the bout to, Kir- Pwin met with universal approval. Just be- fore the battle Hurst announced the weighis as: Lally, 189; Kersvin, 139. The veteran and once daddy of all the local light-weights, Charley Daly, was in Kerwin’s corner and Brownlow Sexton was Lally’s coach. tf The curtain raiser last night was a four- round go between Frank Cabrilliac of St. Louis and Billy Brennan of (New York, 115- pound lads. Brennan did not do much but ose and fiddle, and though much taller and aving a longer reach than his opponent, the latter got in the most Ncks and was rightfully given the decision. After the curtain raiser John Seltenreith of East St. Louis, a ee eat man, and Joe Frede of St. Louls, 13% pounds, w announced as going to fight six rounds. In the first round Frede nished his man badly and after a minute’s fighting in the second round Seltenreith went down and out.. He was no match for Frede. but showed great pluck the little while he lasted. Last night Dave Nelson, the man ‘with the calliope voice, announced that Lally and Douglas would box four friendly rounds next Monday night at Havlin’s Theater be- tween the acts of the ‘““Trip to Chinatown,” “That will be Football Night at Havlin’s,” said Dave, “and the Post-Dispatch trophy will be given away then.”’ The announcement was cheered, and so ‘were all the bouts, and the big crowd that crossed the river came ‘bagk again in thor- ough good humor and fteling as though they had been given a good run for their money. JACK DALY’S PROSPECTS. The Lightweight Pugilist Suing for a Million of Money. Jack Daly, the Wilmington (Del,) pug- flist, is suing a Dr. Dougherty of Philadel- phia for a million. Three fears ago Adr. John A. Dougherty, a wealthy resident of Philadelphia, adopted Cornelius J. Moriar- ity as his son. Judge Grubb granted the order and Morlarity, or Daly, as he is known in sportine circles, became John A. Dougherty, Jr. Dr. Dougherty was stuck on ly’s prospects for a few months and spent money on him with great lavishness. aly made a good-natured, easy, going- as-you-please son. In _ fact, did too much as he pleased to suit the Soctoe. A few words passed bétween them, then came & quarrel, and in less than six months the doctor was in the Orphans’ Court asking for the dissolution of the adoption order. ] d his ground. Willard Saulsbury. ‘ . Hayes, the best counsel in Phil- prepared to give the doctor a his money. Testimony in the case was heard two years ago. The doctor's plea for dissolution of the order was temporary insanity. A dozen witnesses took the stand and swore that _the doctor was a morphine eater and was Sxcgedinsty eccentric. Owing to changes iin @ make-up of the courts under ae |new constitution the case has hun re until this week, when it was closed. fan- cellor Nicholson, who sits in the Orphans’ Court, will hand down this decision in a few days. It is the unanimous apinion of the bar that the case will be decided against jhe doctor, who is worth upward of $1,000,- AT COLUMBUS, 0..

RUN OVER BY A WAGON Robert ‘Dunbar ‘Seriously Injured While Picking. Up Coal. Robert Dunbar, 60 years old, was picking up céal in Market street in front of Union Station Friday morning when a heavy loaded wagon and Dunbar, who is in poor circumstances, was picking it up to take to his home at 1131 Locust st. The injured man was sent to the City Hospital. The driver of the wagon, William Kreiger of 1831 Rauschenbach avenue, was arrested. Dunbar sells newspapers for a scale. The refusal of the bosses to grant this, the men said, meant a general strike. Three hundred men are said to be out. The bosses and men have held numerous conferences, and the result is that the lock- out affects but a small number of men, A special meeting of ‘the union was held in Walhalla Hall Friday morning. It was announced by! an officer that the session was executive and no information concern- ing the deliberations ‘would be made at this time. The hall was well filled with men in earn- est consultation. Said one man} “It can be safely stated that there will be ho general strike among the not be interrupted.

CRAVE GAVE WAY’ ~ BENEATH HER Thrilling Incidents of a Fun- eral at Sullivan, Mo. MISS GRACE MARTIN'S MISHAP. SHE SANK SUDDENLY IN THE SOFT EARTH COVERING THB CASKET OF HER MOTHER. HER RESCUER IMPERILED. Mr. Martin Fainted and His Aged Mother Fell When Told of the Strange Circumstances— Leg Broken. Pasewngers arriving at Union Station over the Frisco Friday brought with them the story of a weird and tragical happening at Sullivan, Mo. The little town Is all worked up over an oc- ‘eurrence, the memory of which sends a thrill through the superatititious, The funeral of Mrs. Mary Martin, wife of James B. Martin, a prominent citizen of Sullivan, was one of the most imposing ever seen in Sullivan, Friends of the family from miles around were in attendance and the pretty little cemetery was crowded when the last sad rites were performed at the open grave. Misa Grace Martin, the beautiful daughter of Mra. Martin, advanced to the grave and knelt on the mound of earth to etrew flow- ers on the coffin of her mother. Bystand- ers watched her with saddened, sympathetic nterest. Suddenly there was an affrighted scream. A horrible sight met the gage of the lookers- on. The soft earth at the edge of the grave gave way wunder the weight of the devoted daughter and she wae pre- cipitated into the grave. Only her head and shou dem and her white, agonized face were e. } visibl he horror of the situation spellbound until J. B. E of the family, went to Miss sistance. He leaped to her : Just as he caught the hands of the fast weakening young woman was a second scream, this time one | warning from the half hysterical women at the grave-side. It came too late, The soft ae — a : earth sank under the weight of Mr. Eng- lish and he, too, was precipitated into thé grave. ’ His efforts to extricate himself were as ig a as those of Miss Martin had been. Some of the more plucky of the bystand- ers awoke to action and set to work to extricate the young woman and her res- cuer from their strange position. While this was being done Mr. Martin, the young woman’s father, gaye way un- der the terrible strain on his sensibilities and became hysterical. The tax on his strength was so heavy that he fell inw faint. Kindly hands carried him to his home, where efforts were made to revive him. Mr. Martin’s aged mother was alone in the house when he was taken there. The unconscious man was carried upstairs and his mother advised to remain below untli summoned, When she was told, as gently as possible, what had happened, she insisted on going to her son’s bedside. On the way upstairs she fainted and fey headlong down the steps. When she wi picked up it was found her left leg Wa¢ fractured below the knee. Miss Martin and Mr. English were more dead than alive when finally extricateé from the grave. The young woman was unconscious for several hours.

I tried every remedy I thought would do him good. I even called in the doctor who told me it would wear away in time, but I used his medicine tonoaccount. I did not know what to do with him. , He cried all the time and his face was equal to a raw piece of meat, it was horrible, and looked as if there was never any skin on it. I had to carry him around on a pillow. I was fairly discouraged. I was then recommended to use Corree ° * emeptes. The frst time I used - -- BABY’S THE CHARTER AMENDMENTS. Little Progress Made by the Council at Last Night’s Session. The City Council made better progress with work on the charter amendment bill at Thursday evening’s meeting, but de- ferred action on the sections of greatest im- portance. ; As was anticipated, the Council split on the plan of assessment for stréet improve- ments. Mr. Carrol denounced the plan of the committee as Henry Georgeism and said he did not want any of it. HHe offered an amendment substituting the plan advo- cated Rs President McMath of the Board of Pubiic Improvements. Under this plan the assessment would be based on the ben- efits to be derived instead of on the basis of valuation. One-fourth of the cost would be assessed against the property fronting the improvement and the remaining three- fourths against all the property in the — The sectidn gether that applicants far the privilege of paying in six annual ineatall- ments must file a written waiver of all ob- jections to the legality or regularity of the proceedings of the clty, was also strongly opposed, on the ground that it would ena- ble:one property owner to block improve- ments. Action on both sections was deferred. ‘Action on several other sections was also deferred, but quite a number were approved, The Council will meet again at5 p. m, Fri- day; when the merit system amendment may be introduced in the committee.

It Was the last meeting of the season of a select little West End organization, and Mrs Puller had invited a number of outsiders, After the prizes were won the guests were invited to the dining room to supper. A particularly tempting cake on the table turned the conversation to cake walking. Mrs. Puller said she had never seen a cake walk, and then some one suggested that the uests leave the cake uncut and ‘“walk’”’ or it after the supper. Mrs. Puller said she was willing, and offered to donate her cake to the winner. It was compulsory upon all the guests to walk, and when Miss Coogie sat down at the piano and began to play “Hot Time in the O14 Town” the procession moved, with Mr. and Mrs. Puller in the lead, Mr. and Mrs. Moon followed, and following them were Mr. and Mrs. Charles Rucker, Mr. and Mrs. John Allen, Mr. and Mrs. J. L ehman, Mr. and Mrs. Wilbrant, Mr. and Mrs. Waldick, Miss Hall; and Miss Wooster. After several turns through the double drawing rooms it occurred to Mr. Allen that his wife didn’t know beans about cake walking and that if he stuck by her side the prize would be lost to him. The last thing his wife said to the Olive street druggist was: “Now, Mr. Allen, I ope you'll leave off your monkey shines to- night and be dignified for once in your life.”’ And Mr. Allen had been as proper as a deacon until he saw his chances for the cake waning. He asked his wife. to excuse him for a moment and he left the room as Mr. and Mrs. Moon were holding the floor. When he reappeared he had upon his arm black Sally, the Putlers’ cook. It ralyzed the com- pany, but Mr. Allen didn’t flinch. Sally laid her head n his shoulder, smfled at the guests, an around the room ‘they stepped, aot and airy. Even Mrs. Allen had to laugh, and that made Allen cut some fancy figures he hold up his sieeve, He says he always goes slow until (Mrs, len laughs, and then he knows it’s all right. A vote was taken the cake was awarded to Mr. Allen and Sally. They divided the cake evenly, and when the ery broke up Mr. Men took home his half, tied up ina n per. “That Sally was a wonder,” said Mr. Allen to a Post-Dispatch reporter, ‘Walk? Why, I'd back her against the world. I e it was a little unusual, but ‘hhad suppos to win that cake. DANGER LINE PASSED. — MISSISSIPPI RIVER IS CAUS- ING CONSIDERABLE OFFICIAL ALARM AT MEMPHIS, TENN.

For Some Time He Lived in New York, but Was in London When Fa- tally Stricken. LONDON, April 1.—Arthur Orten, the Tichborne claimant, died of syncope yes- terday evening. The. Tichborne case is the most famous in British court history. The estate is worth $120,000 a year. Roger Charles Tichborne, the rightful heir to the title and property, sailed from Havre to Valparaiso in 1853, and the following year sailed for Rio Janeiro in a vessel that foundered at sea. A chancery suit was in- stituted and his death legally proved in 1865. Later a claimant turned up who + 4 resented himself as Roger Charles TG - borne, and asserted before the courts that he and eight of the’ crew of the foundered ship were saved; that he went to Australia and lived there 13 years under the name of Castile, but had married under the name of Tichborne, He was accepted by the Dowager Lady Tichborne as her son, but the courts decided that he was an impostor, Subsequently the claimant was indicted for perjury and forgery “under the name of Arthur Orten. In 1874 he was convicted and sentenced to 14 years’ imprisonment at hard labor, Sut in 1884 was released on ticket-of-leave. He went to the United} States and for a time served as a bartender on the Bowery in New York, CHARLES CARROL RETURNS. Nearly Proved Fatal. Charles Y. B. Carroll, son of Charles C.

AGENTS FOR A RESTAURANT STAND ON MARKET STREBT STRIKE A HARD PROPRIETOR. WOMEN ARE GOOD “STAYERS.” Rent Wasn’t Paid, They Claim, Be- cause the Real Estate Men Were | Not in Their Office at the Proper Time. Mrs. Catharine M. Baughman and her three daughters, Charlsie, 2 years old; El- sie, 18, and Maudie, 15 years old, are camp- ing out in the deserted King Bee Restau- rant at 1723 Market street. Scott & Farrar, agents for the prop- erty, are making every effort to dislodge Mrs. Baughman and her pretty daughters, but so far the feminine quartette laughs at the real estate men’s dilemma, Friday Mr. Farrar went to the Four Courts and told his troubles to Assistant City Attor- ney Meigs, who issued a police summons, chargi trespass. Mr. Farrar said that a few days ago Mrs. Baughman'‘and her three daughtess came to his office and wanted to view the prem- ises at 1723 Market street. : Mrs. Ba man Bad experience in the restaurant siness and was pleased with the location. Anxious for a tenant Mr. Far- rar gave the keys and the women left on their inspection tour. They never came back, Mr. Farrar said, and when the agent went to look the mat- ter up he found the women in possession. They refused to either pay any rent, vacate, or return the keys. A reporter called at the King Bee Friday. The place was in the utmost confusion. Boxes of household plunder were piled over the floor and smoke was belching m a big stove and blackening the walis. Charisie and Maudie were in possession and when the reporter assured them he was not representing the real estate men he was admitted. Maudie, though she is but 16, was the spokeswoman. Her hair was dishev- d her face and hands were black a is from that awful stove that we can’t stop smoking,” she said. “Ma is not here now and I don’t knew anything about this business. he agents did t keep their word, and course we won't stay here. But they can’t put us out, just the same. We are here and will stay till we get good and ready to leave. ; eee at ~~ wey nek are oe.

He came here while ma was down at his place. He just stormed about here, but he did not et anything. If he had stayed in his of- ce he would have been paid his money.” Charlsie was not so combative as her younger sister, ‘We came from Peoria a month ago,” she said, ‘‘where we were in the restauran business. We thought this place a go one. but it is not satisfactory. Ma and Elsie are out looking for a new place now. ‘Maybe we will move to-day. But we will stay here until we find a place. I do not see ‘how they could get a summons chargin us with trespass, They gave us the keys. PRESS CLUB ENTERTAINMENT. Vaudeville Show and a Cake Walk Which Took the Cake. The newspaper men owned the Fourteenth Street Theater Thursday night, where the Press Club gave its complimentary enter- tainment and cake walk. The theater was crowded and the “S. R..O." sign was out early in the proceedings. “Trilby sans Trilby’” was the’ opening sketch. The roles were filled by Tom Thurlby, George Rehse, Dick Wood and Peter MoCord. It was not a bit like Trilby but it went, and scored a great hit. Other performers belonging to the noble army of journalists were Steve ‘Martin, who sang a tenor solo; Bob Lee and H. Niemey- er, who gave a ahicken-steaiing symposium, and would ‘have introduced a scrap between game cocks had not J. V, Hackett, as a stage policeman, interfered; Otto | en- @orfer gave some clever imitations of J. K. Emmet, and F. RK. Larrimore and F. Hack- ett Huenphrey ve a piano duet. It was not all tnrestrained hilarity, how- ever. The performance was tempered by more serious numbers. Miss Grace Hagard ave a patriotic symphony, Prof. A. G, obyn rendered a piano solo, Sidney Schiele gave a violin solo, and the Elks Quartette sang several selections. Little May Rosenberg, in her character of Carroll Johnson, Jr., was very clever. Misé Josephine Newman, in songs and speciai- jes, earned much applause, and A. aton did clever work in molding faces from Us of clay.
