Stockholders. } WAS TO “LEAVE ’EM ALONE.” THE ATTORNEY ADMITS RECEIV- ING THE MONEY, BUT DENIES THERE WAS COLLUSION. SECRETARY MACCALLUM TALKS He Says He Has Always Regarded the Payment of the Check as Being Something Out of the Usual Run. Stockholders and some of the directors of the North End Bullding and Loan Associa- tion propose to fight it out to the end with Henry L. Gray, Supervisor of Building and Loan Associations, and his attorney, Judge Thomas A, Russell. Some of the stockholders and their attor- neys bluntly declare that Judge Russell ac- gepted a check for $200 to let the association alone last fall, just after the Obert defaica- tions were discovered. The'two receivership applications came up before Judge Talty Tuesday morning and much legal argument was the result. J@ the audience were interested stockhouiders, among them being William C. Alsdorf. “After the two suits had been consolidated and set for Wednesday Mr. Alsdorf said: “T am willing to make an affidavit that Gray took money to keep his hands off the association last fall. Judge Russell, his attorney, got an order of court to inspect the books. We were very busy finding out how much Obert stole. We did not want tu have any more trouble than we had then, so we asked the Supervisor to keep his hands off. They talked about costs and expenses and one thing and another until it was finally agreed to pay Judge Russell $200 to let us alone and he did it. “Now, this receiver business comes up. The sto@eholders are willing to have the court appoint a receiver, but Mr. Gray and hig attorney’ will not allow that because they want to get the job and get all the fees among themselves. Just as they wanted to do last time. We wilI-not permit it if we can hewp it. We will ask for our n re- ceiver as we have a right to do.’ Attorney Robertson who is in the Drew receivership suit says he will present ‘the dheck story to Judge Talty Wednesday morning as a reason why a receiver sug- gested by the Supervisor should not be ap- pointed. Judge Russell, who has had the bulk of the receivership cases in the courts, ad- mitted Tuesday that he had received a check for $200 from the association, but not in any collusive way. He eays that while the suit to get an order to see the books was pend- ing the association voluntarily allowed the supervisor's representatives to see the books. The inspection made by the super- visor, Judge Russell said, showed that the association was all right, so it was agreed openly that if the association paid the at- torney’s fees for himself and Mr. Aiderson beside the costs, a receiver would not be asked for. The $200 check was merely in payment of the costs and attorney’s fees for services already rendered. At the time Judge Russell accepted the $200 check. the defalcations and the steal- ings of John C. Obert were being un- earthed. It wags casane that he had taken about $59,000 and perhaps more, but the re- sort made by the supervisor after the ex- amination showed the concern to be in ex- cellent shape. Everybody interested now claims that the association has not been in good condition since Obert’s shortages were discovered, and that it could have been ascertained at any time. As the case stands now there are two applications for receivers which have been consolidated, two sets of directors fighting each other and an assignment in the re- corder’s office. Where or what the assets are no one seems to know. One set of directors wants one receiver and another set wants another receiver, while the State Supervisor wants to gobble the whole af- fair. Judge Talty will probably appoint a re- ceiver Wednesday and by that time a ce m- “ton mise voy be affected whereby Judge tuseell will be allowed to act ag recelver’s attorney. Secretary Maccallum of the North End Bullding Association said: “It was Supervisor Gray who suggested that !f we would pay his attorney $200 to etc., he would let us alone, Of caurse we were anxious to have the case dropped, and we hoped that if given time we could straighten out the book w'thout Attorney Russell got the $200."’ Director George H'lke confirmed the check and emphasized the statement that the supervisor did “let them alone,” and never made an examination or interfered MISS EMMA TELLER WEDS. wre em meee Denver (Colo.)

The resolution seemed acceptable generally to the Republican inambers of the committee but when submitted fo Senator ‘Davis of the I’ reign Relations Committee of the Senate he pointed out a radical defect in the latter portion of it empowering the President “to secure to the people of Cuba a stable and independent repub- lican government,” etc. He said it was his opinion that the Con- gress had no power to delegate such authority to the President and after considering the matter from that standpoint it was agreed to change the latter portion of the resolution into a declaration that such a form of government should exist in the island. LINES ON WHICH THE PRESIDENT WILL PROCEED. &. —_ —— > > ——- He May First Send an Ultimatum to Spain, Notifying Her to Withdraw From Cuba. -_—__- _ > é + 5 WASHINGTON, April 12—According to a statement made by an official of the Administration, should the President be clothed with authority to use the mil- itary and naval forces to intervene solely for the purpose of establishing peace and order in Cuba, he proposes to exercise it first by transmitting to Spain a copy of the resolution with the statement that his obligations require him t6 carry out the will of Congress and a notification that he will do so at once unless Spain with- draws from the island. In other words, the President will deliver an ultimatum to Spain before making a naval demonstration in the hope that Spain may, at the last moment, consent to 2 concession of the independence of the people of the island upon an indemnity or upon some other basis which es be satisfactory to all parties involved. If war should then come, whether “holy” or “unholy,” he will feel that the responsibility is ion Spain. The one significant sign of peace is that diplomatic relations between the United States and Spain have not been severed as a result of the message sent to Congress. It is true that all of-our consults have been called out of Cuba, and this would in- dicate a preliminary sign of war But our minister is still at Madrid and Spain’s representative is still here. It was supposed that when the President’s message went to Congress Spain would at once take umbrage and recall Minister Polo. She has not done so, noc has the President recalled Minister Woodford. The two Ministers are thus at their posts of duty and in a position to resume negotia- tions for a definite settlement of the Cuban question, and pending differences be- tween the two countries involving the Maine disaster in the event that Spain should succeed in getting the Cubans to consent to the armistice which the Queen has proclaimed. For the present the matter is leit in the hands of Congress, so far as the Pres- ident is concerned, but if anything should come of the negotiations which are known to be secretiy under way toward securing the indevendence of Cuba on an indemnity bas‘s there is no doubt that the President would quickly open negotiations with Spain while Congress is deliberating over the form of action it. will take. The Administration is not particularly sanguine that the insurgents will consent to Spain's last appeal for peace. The text of the armistice, which is now in possession of the President, was rather disappointing to the authorities here, and if the full terms had been known sooner the addendum to the President’s message, intimating a desire for delay, might not have been inserted, HOUSE DEMOCRATS FOR INDEPENDENCE. The Minority of the Foreign Affairs Committee Agree Upon a Resolution. os 7 ‘ WASHINGTON, April 12.—It is stated that the House Foreign Affairs Com- ” mittee will make no report to the House to-day. The position of the Democratic members of the committee is independence and immediate and armed tntervention. The committee took a recess at noon until 8 o’clock this afternoon. The Republicans of the House who joined in the conference movement for ag- gressive action met in the hall of the old Library of Congress at 11 o'clock. It is probable that a caucus of all the Republicans of the House will be held to determine upon action and instruct the Foreign Affairs Committee to report in ac- cordance with this conclusion. SENTIMENT CRYSTALLIZING IN. FAVOR OF SPEEDY ACTION. WASHINGTON, April 12.—Republican Congressional sentiment is crystalliz- ing against recognition of independence, but favorable to speedy intervention. The steering committee of the House Republicans are generally agreed to yield the recognition of the existing Government, but favor immediate intervention and a declaration that whatever Government is ultimately recognized in Cuba shall be re- publican in form and free from the sovereignty of Spain. . In the Senate Mr. Lindsay offered a resolution directing the President in Cu- ban military operations to act in concert with Gomez. The House Committee on Foreign Affairs expects to have Gen. Fitzhugh Lee before them this afternoon. — see ——> STARTING THE CUBAN BALL ! ROLLING IN THE SENATE. WASHINGTON, April 12.—In the Senate, Mr. Lindsay of Kentucky, started the Cuban resolutions, with one declaring the United States should co-operate with Gomez in any military operations in Cuba. Wilson of Washington followed with a declaration authorizing the President to use the army and navy to end hostilities and secure a republican government in Cuba. Then came Allen of Nebraska with an- other declaring a state of war to exist between Spain and the United States, and rec- ognizing independence of the Republic of Cuba. Pettas of Alabama made a legal ‘argument regarding authority to declare and prosecute war. Then Senator Mason of Hlionis made a speech in favor of war and recognition of the insurgent Government By in Cuba. ‘ — ee oe ee - SPANIARDS BELIEVE THEY 7 WILL RETAIN CUBA. ioe Spectal Cable to the Post-Dispatch, } Copyright by the Press Publishing Company, 1898.

But that she was guilty of any wrong, nearly every one in the courtroom doubted. Honesty was depicted from her large gray eyes, which met one fearlessly, yet not boldly. The chiid, too young to realize the disgrace of a night, spent in jail, and dismayed by the strange surroundings and stern visage of the judge and court officials, nestled in its mother’s arms and cooed and smiled at those who interested themselves in their behalf. Mrs. Callahan was charged with m4- licious oatraetion of property. After the other prisoners had |been arraigned Mrs. Callahan was led before Judge Murphy. She looked questioningly around and At- torney W. K. Harvey stepped forward and explained to the court that the woman was charged with maiicious destruction of prop- erty and that the mother and her babe had been locked up over night. She was poor and unable to furnish bond. The amount of the property alleged to have been destroyed was small. The sternness left Judge ‘Murphy's face, and compassionate mercy took its place.

NEGOTIATIONS SINCE SUNDAY. Col. F. H. Ray Arrived From the East and Was Empowered to Act for the Big Eastern Com- pany. Tobacco stock is shooting skyward. It jumped, Tuesday morning, from 1024, to 1094, and hovered around the latter figure. It is said on ’Change that the big St. Louis company has finally been absorbed by the American Tobacco Trust. The Post-Dispatch is in possession of proof that negotiations to this end nave been pending since Sunday. That day Col. F. H. Ray, vic2-president of the P. J. Sorg Tobacco Co. of Middle- n, O., arrived in St. Louis and made over- tures on behalf of the trust. That he was successful with the Drummond people is now believed. Some time ago, it is said, the trust ob- tained an option on the Drummond tobacco works. The condition of the option was that the Drummond Tobacco Co. was to come into the combine at a specified fig- ure, believed to be very high, if certain oth- er large factories could be bought q It is now stated that these have entered the combine and under the terms of the ween the Drummond company must do so, also The companies which will compose the completed trust will be, besides the Drum- mond Co., the two factories of the American Tobacco Co. in St. Louis + om Louisville, Venable & Co. of Virginia, P. Lorillard & Co. of Jersey City, the Harry Weisinger To- bacco Co, of Louisville and Daniel Schotten & Co. of Detroit. The capitalization of the trust Is placed at $50,000,000. The formation of the trust is a result of the action of the American Tobacco Co., formerly engaged in the cigarette business, in branching out into the manufacture of plug tobacco and cutting prices. The Drurnmond Co., the Liggett & Co. and several smaller concerns making cigarettes and cutting the > on them. This was disastrous all around and to stop the waste the American Tobacco Co, undertook to organize a gigantic plug tobacco and cigarette trust, Pressure was brought to bear upon Lig- gett & Myers, but that company withstood it and refused to enter any sort of a trust or combination. The Jabors of the representatives of the trust with the Drummond company are re- ported to have been more successful. Col. Ray called on Col. M. C. Wetmore of the Liggett & Myers Company, but Col, Wetmore denies emphatically that the com- pany will enter into any combination. Col. Ray left Monday night for Chicago. He refused to talk, but seemed to be well eotenee with the results of his St. Louis visit When a Post-Dispatch reporter called at the office of the Drummond co mi geon d he was told that Mr. Drummond would receive his card. The card was éent in and a young man. came from the private office. “Mr. Drummond asks me to tell you he cone see reporters this afternoon,’”’ he al The young man returned to the office, but came out a minute later and eaid: ‘‘Mr. Drummond authorizes me to say that no company has an option on the plant and that it has not been sold.” This was as close as Mr. Drummond would come to making a direct denial. AN ESCAPED MURDERER. Roberts, Alias Dublin, Is Wanted in Ireland and England. Son Percival Adams, attorney for one of the men charged with the murder of old Jacob Weinand, is credited with having unearthed the true history of William Roberts, alias Dublin, one of the alleged murderers, and it shows Roberts to be a desperate char- acter. His real name is said to be James ‘Murphy and his father a commission merchant in Wall Hill, Dublin, from whom he still re- ceives money. Roberts is charged in Dublin with hav- ing murdered, when 22 years old, an old man, whose battered and bleeding body was found one morning in the street of Castle Wall. Roberts made his way to the coast town of Tarne, sailed on the trader Vasalia, as a stowaway, was discovered and put ashore at Castle Garden.

HIS BROTHER’S CHILDREN ARE NOW SUING ARCH- BISHOP KAIN. TRIAL IN WITHROW’S COURT. Reilly’s Brother Had Willed to Him * Ten Thousand Dollars of His Es- tate, but James Left the Children One Dollar. The suit to break the will of James Reilly was on trial before Judge Withrow Tuesday. James Reilly was, before his death, a horse dealer on North Broadway and had an estate valued at about $30,000. He was a widower and left no direct heirs. When his will was probated it was found that he had left a number of large bequests to the Catholic Church and to some of his’ relatives, but to the children of his deceased brother, Robert Reilly, he had left $1 each. They were not satisfied with this arrange- ment and brought suit to break the will. The plaintiffs, all children of Robert Reilly, are Annie R. Martin, Nannie Maginn, Cath- erine Reilly, Florida Reilly and Stella Reilly. The defendants are Archbishop Kain, the Monks’ Church, Rev. James McCabe, the Little Sisters of ‘the Poor, devisees, and Catherine Bowdern and Henry Andrews, executors of the will. The plaintiffs ~y Fhe i their father, Rob- ert Reilly, when he died, left the sum of $10,000 to James Reis, but in spite of that died, left only $1 each to Robert Reilly’s children, They claim that the reason for this neglect is that he was of unsound mind when he made the will and was unduly influenced by the beneficiaries and those who gsur- pounces him for some time before his eath. The copy of tthe will, as filed with the petition in the case, shows the deceased had great faith in the efficacy of ped for the souls of the departed. The will provides for masses as follows: ‘*To the Rev. Archbisho ane of the city of St. Louis, the sum o to be used by pin for masses for nS repose of my sou “To the Rev. Archbishop Kain, the sum of $1000, to be used for the purpose of masses for the repose of the soul of my father, William Reilly, deceased . ‘To the Rev. Archbishop Kain, the sum of $1000, to be used for masses for the re- ' pose of the soul of my mother, Mary Reilly, deceased. “To the Monks Church, Meramec and Vir- ginia avenue, $1000, for masses for the re- pose of the soul of my departed wife, Mar- garet Rellly. “After the payments of the bequests aforesaid I give, devise and bequeath to the Rev. Archbishop Kain, for masses for the repose of my soul, all the rest, residue gna teed of my estate wheresoever si ate In the Reilly will case in Judge With-, row’s court the entire morning was taken up with the testimony of Albert Gerst, who drew the will and was one of the witnesses to it. He related in detail the conversa- tions he had with Mr. Reilly over the pro- visions of the will. One part of the con- versation related was that Mr. Gerst sug- gested he was giving a great deal of money to the Archbishop. “What would you suggest, then?” asked Mr. Reilly ‘you to the “Well, yes; put them down for $1000,” said Mr. Reilly Mr. Gexat related the conversations re- garding a monument and how Mr. Reilly had mentioned about what he wanted for himself. In the opinion of Mr. Gerst the remtatos was of sound mind when he made 11s WwW Archbishop Katn, Father McCabe and all the nephews and nieces were in court as witnesses and seemed deeply interested in the testimony in the case.

Then they made a formal tender of their services to Dr. Pesold, and they were as- Sured that when the First Regiment was called to the front they should accompaly it. Miss Atchison was seen at the Woman’s Hospital Tuesday morning. When the re- porter stated his mission she smiled pleas- antly and began to reproach him for finding out something that she did not want the pub- lic to learn just yet. “There’s no use denying it, however,” she laughingly said, “for the Post-Dispatch seems to get all the news and I might have known it would have learned of our little scheme. But, honestly now, we don’t want anything printed about this. We did not take this step with any desire to achieve met gl notoriety. We felt that we would be needed in case there was war, and we felt it was our duty to enlist and do our best to care for the brave men who would certainly be more or less wounded and maimed. We had all served our time in the hospitals, had graduated as trained nurees and knew we could be of good service. Hav- ing had actual service in the surgical de- partment of hospital work, as weil as the medical department, we felt we would not be doing our duty if we had not offered our aid.”’ The case of J. B.

This was the case in which McCormick, was charged with getting out a pamphlet A quartette of trained nurses, young, fair and patriotic, have organized and tendered their services to Dr. Carl Pesold, assistant surgeon to. the First Regiment of the Na- tional Guard of Missouri.

I would, therefore, join Mr. Meriwether in asking you to make the punishment as light as possible.’’ Judge Murphy said the costs in the case would foot up nearl: $100. A jury had been summoned and the jury and other costs would aggregate neariy $100. So he said he would enter up a $100 fine against the de- fendant, and that would cover all the expenses incurred in the preliminary hear- ings of the case. McCormick was given ten days in which to pay this fine, and in the meanwhile he will remain under his original bond fur- nished for his app¢arance in court.

The President’s message is a cautious legal argument, but not a great state paper. It contains a disappointment for the friends of liberty in Cuba, and asop for the peace-at-any-price men. Proof of the conscious weakness of the message is found in the apologies and explanations of the President’s friends. There is nowhere in the paper an expression of the sympathy of the American people for the — of freedom in Cuba. There is no pledge, implied or expréssed, that the final gov- ernment of Cuba will be a free Cuban government. There is nowhere a .clear intimation that the forces of the United States will be used to drive Spain from the island. There is nowhere a distinct conclusion plainly deducible from the argument that Spain has forfeited her sovereignty and must leave Cuba in the hands of the Cubans. While the President draws up a terrible indictment of Spain's misrulé and points cut the collapse of Spanish sovereignty, he fails in the sentence. He convicts Spain of high crime, but does not prescribe adequate punishment. There is nothing in the message inconsistent with the recognition as the stable government, which the President says must be set up in Cuba, of some form of Spanish sovereignty. In no place does it defin- itely refer to independence as the object of American inter- vention. It harks toward compromise. As to the Maine incident, the message is wholly unsatisfac- tory. It expresses confidence in the Naval Court of Inquiry and its finding that the Maine was blown up by a submarine mine, but avoids the-logical conclusion that the Maine was destroyed by Spaniards. It implies arbitration. The message conveys the impression that the President was controlled by fear of offending Spain and Spain's friends in Lurope, and that he lacked the courage to express the senti- ments in the hearts of the American people, and to stand boldly for their principles and their rights. It is indefinite, indecisive and timid. But there is a clear indication of a desire to shift the issue upon Congress. The vague recommendations offer Congress an opportunity to meet the expectations of the people, to express their sentiments and to accomplish their will. Congress can show what stuff it is made of. Diplomacy is exhausted and “clay plays into the hands of the enemy. The Circulation of last Suoday’s Post-Dispatch was 125,282. . OO Every day's delay means more poor women and children starved or hammered to death in Cuba. oe OUR NON-REPRESENTATIVE ASSEMBLY. The resume in Monday's Post-Dispatch of the doings of our hiunicipal Assembly during the session just about to close, wiil be read with feelings of dissatisfaction by the citizens generally. It tells how these nominally public servants have not represented the people, but the franchise grabbers. They have been so busily engaged in attempts to give away valuable public property that they have neglected about everything else in the line of public work. And in refusing to consider the demands of 56,000 voters for submission to the people of the merit system amendment to the charter the Council defied the people whose representatives they were supposed to be. This number of voters is 6000 more than the entire city’s vote for Bryan. It is only 9000 less than the entire city’s vote for McKinley. Are jhe people of St. Louis to manage their own affairs through real representatives in future? Or are the city’s af- fairs and its purse to be autocratically governed by a set of bosses, elected in the guise of public representatives”? The repeated failures of legislative bodies to do the public will indicates either that the people must find a way to elect officials who will represent them, or, if this is found to be im- possible, take the law-making power into their own hands. a oS Yesterday the Post-Dispatch served up to its readers the President's message in full. It was the only afternoon news- paper which printed a verbatim copy of the message. For all the news read the Post-Dispatch. —-— ——-—~+-_--90@ A SHAM ARMISTICE. The Spanish armistice is a sham. A ‘truce to be effective must be agreed to by both combatants. Ifthe insurgents are bandits, as Spain contends, they will go on shooting Spaniards regardless of the truce, and Gen. Llanco will have to defend'‘himself. If they are belligerents they must be consulted concerning any such measure. They have already declared that they will not be a party to any truce, and this makes the scheme an absurd impossibility. It is to be hoped that the President will not be deceived by any such trick. He has been too lenient already. But if he takes this proposal seriously he will be bamboozled. And Sa- fasta will have another laugh at our expense. a a _—_ ee REGULAR . CIRCULATION OF Se en SS RE a It is to be hoped that St. Louis may never have on its hands such another Municipal Assembly as the one now passine out of the old City Mall with so vile an odor. ' i -~ —— ee, $$ y THE CAUSE FOR WAR. The peace-at-any-price men who have been plaititively ask- ing what cause cf war we have should ponder these words of resident McKinley: “In the name of humanity, in the name of civilization, in behalf of endangered American interests, which give us the right and the duty to speak and to act, the war in Cuba must stop.” There is a cause, The peace President who haa been so long making up his mind says just what has been said by every patriot for the past two months. After reading these words the sentimentalists and the bond- mongers’ dupes ought to know why the Amefri¢an — are practically unanimous in this crisis. And then there is the Maine, blown up by a Spanish mine in a Spanish harbor. on So As the President says, the condition of affairs in Cuba has been intolerable. Still, we have tolerated it up to date. a s&s a ANOTHER FENDER MURDER. What sentiment does the street car manager, director or stockholder feel when news comes to him that another life hus been crushéd out on account of a defective fender? When the Lindell managers heard of the murderous killing of 3-year- Don't send checks on the Post-Dispatch has frequently said, not one of them is The Circulation of last Sunday’s Pest-Dispatth was 125,282. . ee The Spanish censorship of news itl Havana has done Span- iards little good. The world is very well informed as to the Cuban conditions. There is hardly anything more farcical than the attempted suppression of news. Our own Govern- ment ss to some extent, been guilty of this Spanish folly. i, te a Se , PINGREE DEFEATED. ‘Gov. Pingree has been defeated in his effarf#$to bring the rail- roads of Michigan te their senses and compel them to pay their fair share of taxes to the State, the Legislature having declined to co-operate with him to this end. ‘One reason for the failure may be found in this telegram sent by the Governor to President McKinley: “The Collector of Customs of Detroit is here (at Lansing) in charge of the lobby to defeat a bill on railroad taxation. He is assisted by the Coliector of Customs from Port Huron. They are reported to be promising positions to members who vote against the bill. May I ask you to have these Federal officers recalled and this abuse of Federal patronage corrected.” This is pernicious activity of the most pernicious’ kind. Hiannaism is t:;;umphant in State as well as national politics, and any attempt to reduce the corporations to a condition of law and order is met by the whole power of the national boss. +++ The highly amusing statement is made that the postscript to the message would not have recommended “just and care- ful consideration” of the Spanish armistice proposition had the artifice been exposed in time. After all the President’s expe- rience of Spanish trickery he was again deceived by the most transparent artifice. Was he really deceived? a oo The war bond loan should unquestionably be made a popular one. With bonds of $50 at 3 per cent, small investors would have an opportunity such as is seldom offered them. The (iovernment has heretofoére issued bonds of this denomination and they were readily taken. a ae The i Court also thinks that a city has the right to controlits streets. It is strange that so plain a matter should ever have become a’subject of litigation. It is to be hoped that Congress will not deliberate too long.

THREE CASHIERS ON STRIKE. Pretty Women Resent a Reduction in Their Salary. There is a strike on at Thatcher’s Olive street restaurant, It is not a big strike, but it is unrivaled for intensity of feeling. There are only three strikers, but up to the time they walked out they formed the chief ornaments of the place, and were undoubt- edly one of the main attractions that drew the male patronage of the place. The leader of the revolutionists fs Miss Wood. who for a long time has been the head eashier at the front desk, where she made change, and had a cheerful word ora pleasant Smile for everybody. She is ably seconded by Mrs. Campbell, who has graced from time to time the cashier’s desk, both at the Olive street place and the Locust street lunch counter. The third of the trio is the cashier from the Locust street lunch pface. Saturdzy night they were all informed that they would be expected to accept a material reduction in salary. No reason was given, except that business was bad and it was absolutely necessary for the interest of the company that the cut be made, This, ¢dict was given out by Miss Alberta Thatcher. “It’s a crying shame,” said Miss Wood, when talking about it. “They have been giving $% away every day to the customers and nosy they want us to pay it.” “Yes, and they wanted me to work for $12 a month and my dinner,” said Mrs. Campopell. ‘“‘What do you think of that?” “Not gatisfied with that, they want me to make up $10 dollars which a man stole from the counter, and to make good a lot of checks customers left with me because the house didn’t have change for the big bills they offered. They are all good, but they want to take it out of my money,” said Miss Wood. HURRYING BACK 10 COAST, Gun Carriage Cargo, Bound West, Stopped at Kansas City.

DEATH OF MRS. KLAUSMANN. Widow of the Wealthy Brewer Suc- cumbs at the Age of 84 Years. At the Missouri Crematory Tuesday after- noon the remains of Mrs. Mary Anna Klausmann were reduced to ashes. The deceased had lived in St. Louts con- tinuously since 1839, and was well known to the pioneer element. She lacked but little over a month of being 8 years old at the time of her death three days ago. Charles Kiausmann, husband of the deceased, died many yearsago. He was prominently iden- tifled with the upbuilding of the city in the early days and left a fortune to his family, a large share of which Mrs. Klaus- mann disbursed in charitable work. The deceased leaves two daughters, Mrs. Caroline Buchholz and Bertha Kolts, who will inherit the bulk of her estate, valued at several hundred thousand dollars. Bequests are also made to two grandchildren, BARLEY AND WHEAT GO UP. Striking Advance of Prices on Frisco’s Produce Exchange.

William Maloney Has Seen War in Many Lands, but Is Ready to Fight for Honor of His Fiag. A gray-haired old man who performs the humble labors of janitor at the Fourth Dis- trict Station has seen the gore of many bat- tles, and enthusiastically declares that when war with Spain is declared he will shoulder a musket and march away to the wars again, William Maloney is fast nearing the age of three score and ten. He comes of sturdy Irish stock, of a family that won distinction and renown in the British Army. William’s four brothers were soldiers, and one of them perished in the famous charge of the Light Brigade at Balaklava, in 1855. “I served three years in the English army,” said old Wililam, becoming remi- niscent, “and 1 would not forfeit my. knowl- edge of military tactics gained in that time for any man’s money. Scarcely had I joined when our regiment, together with eight oth- ers, was ordered to Sebastopo!. The great Crimean war, with France and England unitedly opposing Russia, was one of tne most desperate conflicts in the world’s his- tory. We arrived at Sebastopol late in the fall. The Russians and Coséacks were camped near the river Alma, having been routed from the city. We charged on them, the second day, and were repulsed with the loss of 100 men. “As we fled a scouting party of Cossacks pursued myself and a companion. We were overtaken after a long sprint and made cap- tives. For three days and two nights we were without a morsel of food. When the guard informed us that it was the intention to starve us to death I went almost crazy. “That night we planned a daring escape, The guard entered our cell at dead of night to make the usual inspection. We seized him by the throat and choked him into in- sensibility. Then I donned his uniform and directed my fellow prisoner to follow me. We slipped into the jail porch, gave the pass word and after scaling a 40 foot wall, got away safely. You can imagine the re- ception we got on returning to camp. Efforts of the army to bombard Sebasto- pol were vain. The siege was renewed every few days, and added sorrow instead of triumph. The winter was something terrible. It was frightfully cold and hun- dreds of soldiers died from coid and starva- tion. But we made some headway and at length the Russians evacuated Sebastopol, leaving a burning city behind them, “From a ‘distance I witnessed the charge from Balaklava, in which 400 good and true men lost their lives. Looking at those brave soldiers rush into that —e of death was a scene I can never forget. We returned to Engiand the latter part of 1856. S@on after- ward I was honorably discharged from the army and came to America, “A few years Jater found me in the service of Uncle Sam. After the brief skirmish of Camp Jackson I was taken ili, and remained in bad health for a long time. I have assur- ances from severa:i of my old comrades that they will unite with me in forming a regi- ment to teach those cruel Spaniards a les- son long to be remembered.”’ ABOUT TOWN.

The following letter to Mrs. Pink- ham from Mrs. M. RANK, No. 2,354 East Susquehanna Ave., Philadelphia, Pa., isa remarkable statement of re- lief from utter discouragement. She says: ‘* T never can find words with which to thank you for what Lydia E. Pink- ham’s Vegetable Compound has done for me. **Some years ago I had womb trouble and doctored for a long time, not see- ing any improvement. At times I would feel well enough, and other times was miserable. So it went on until last October, I felt something terrible creeping over me, I knew not what, but kept getting worse. I can hardly explain my feelings at that time. I was so depressed in spirits that I did not wish to live, although I had everything to live for. Had hys- teria, wis very nervous; could not sleep and was not safe to be left alone, ‘* Indeed, I thought I would lose my mind. Noone knows what I endured. ‘*] continued this way until the last of February, when I sawina paper a testimonial of a lady whose case was similar to mine, and who had been cured by Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegeta- ble Compound. I determined to try it, and felt better after the first dose. I continued taking it, and to-day am a well woman, and can say from my heart, ‘Thank God for such a medi- cine.’ LA) Mrs. Pinkham invites a)l suffering women to write to her at Lynn, Mass. for advice.

A Wife’s All-Night Vigil in Front of a Pretty Flat Near Chouteau and Ewing Ave- nues. ‘Two Brave Lads Perform an Act of Bravery Which Adds to the Lau- rels of Uncle Henry—A Thrilling Rescue. + ee eewne ceeeee Dr. Eugene R. Waterhouse took out a marriage license Tuesday morning to wed Miss Viola Maynor, the co-respondent in his wife’s divorce sult. Dr. Waterhouse and his other wife, Mrs. Hattie S. Waterhouse, occupied the atten- tion of the Circuit Courts for several months with their domestic affgirs. The way it all started was one day last fall Dr. Waterhouse came back to town from a business trip to Ohio. Instead of returning to his home on Eighteenth street, just south of Chouteau avenue, he went | to the flat on North Ewing avenue, where Miss Maynor then lived. Mrs, Waterhouse heard of it the same evening, and, escorted by her grown-up son, marched her forces up to Ewing avenue and laid siege to the house of Miss Maynor. The vigilance of Mrs. Waterhouse and her son was rewarded shortW after daylight by the appearance of the doctor on the front st«ps. Mrs. Waterhouse grabbed him, sat.sfied herself as to his identity, and then went straight to her lawyer for a divorce, | The suit was filed the next day, and in it Miss Maynor was made co-respondent, Her testimony in the case was taken by deposi- tions. She admitted being very friendly with the doctor, and having taken a_ ride, or two with him in daytime to perfectly proper places, She was on the rack all of one afternoon, and in reply to the severe cross-questioning nt ayy lawyers, paid them back in their own coin, Her depositions indicated that she was entirely capable of taking care of her own affairs. She @éxplained the doctor’s presence in the house on that eventful night by say- ing that she was a patient of his, and that he came often to see her. He had come to town tired and worn out, and rather than go to his home, which was not the most pleas- ant place in the world, he remained at her house and slept on a couch in the parlor. When the case came to trial Dr. Water- house made no defense, as he had not paid the alimony ordered by the court, so he was not in good standing as to his pleadings. | Bo court = not ey ms co-defendant his arms, and the Ziegenhein boys ran into \ paren a Te tat’ Bong Enis ony BO the childrens’ room.

For some moments she lay still, watching the reflection through the transom. No thought of danger stirred her and she prepared to return to sleep. Mayor Ziegenhein lives at 3321] South Thir- teenth street. The ged gh phy of Eugene and Hnry ar situat so that the reflec- tion from th fire at the Fey home shone brillantly They were up and on the street in a twinkling Rushing to Fey’s house they found the doors securely fastened. The en- tire kitchen was in flames and the fire was ating its way rapidly along the main roof. The boys peered in at the windows, but saw no one. With the assistance of a club they pried open the back door and dashed in. Smoke and fire whirled through the room, blinding the lads and Scorching their cloth- ing. A few buckets of water cleared the path.to the door of the sleeping apartment, This had barely been accomplished when Fey staggered into the room, followed by his wife. The poor woman was frantic — fright and clung wildly to her hus- anda, ‘The children! The e¢hildren!”’ she cried. ‘“‘Where are they?’’ shouted Eugene Zieg- enhein.

Almost opposite the entrance to the Cen- tral Police Station the runaway collided with an express wagoh. Kreiger's vehicle was completely demol'shed and the mad horse broke loose from his fastenings, and leaving the wreck behind kept on his wild) stampede. Pedestrians scra for places of safety, as the runaway toucned dreadfully close to the s'dewalk at t.meés. At Twelfth and Walnut streets, when it appeared that the horse would crash against the front of Cronin’s saloon, Police- man Roe of the Central District sprang into the street and seized the horse by the bridle bit. The officer was tossed about as a plaything, but he checked the wild animal and after. being dragged half a block, his firm hold upon the bits brought it to a full stop. While all of th!s was going on, Kreiger was en route to the City Dispensary. An examination revealed numerous bruises, but unless internal injuries develop, he will speedily recover. Kreiger is a plumber and lives at Eley- enth and O’Fallon streets. BURIAL PERMITS. Jennie Panis, 40, 1400 Deriin: pneumonia.

He went immediately to Mr. Loe- wenstein’s residence, 1321 Dillon street, and brought him to the store. Upon examination it was found that the thief or thieves had stolen diamonds rings, pins, earrings and severs] Venetian vases, which he had just otten in. Three or four of the vases had been broken and were lefi in the show window. Mr. Loewenste:n does not know exactly what he left in the window, and Will have to take an inventory before he can find out all that is missing.

The fiscal year ended Monday, and to-day the Mayor notified the heads of depart- {ments that they must send In their annual reports as early as possible. The first and only report ready for the Mayor’s inspec- tion so far is that of Louis Grund, Asses- sor and Collector of Water Rates. Mr. Grund and the city are to be congratulated on the excellent record of last year. The receipts show $659,929.25 over those of last year. The total receipts for the year were $1,388,564.45, against $1,335,635. 20. Water Commissioner Holman points to these figures in his argument for the mu- nicipal ownership of a light and power plant, which, he says, is as easy to build up as the city has built up its Waterworks } for the benefit of the people. Heretofore the department reports have straggled in on the Mayor from month to month and delayed his annual message to the Assembly. The reports of 1895-96 are not yet out of the hands of the printer by reason of some of them not reaching the Mayor until two months before the year expired. The Mayor hopes to have all the reports in and his message prepared for the Assembly early in May. ~ eee ae ECZEMA Made Baby Kick and Scream. Had to Wrap Her Hands and Put Her on the Table to Dress. Would Tear Her Face and Arms Almost to Pieces. Grew Worse Under All Remedies, CUTICURA CURED HER When my little girl was six months old, ehe had Eczema. We had used cold creams and all kinds of remedies, but nothing did her any good; in fact she kept getting worse. I used to wrap her hands up,and when I would dress her, I had to put her on the table, for I could not hold her. She would kick and scream, and, when she could, she would tear her face and arms almost to pieces. I used four boxes of CuTicuRa (ointment), two cakes of CuTicuRa Soap, and gave her the CUTICURA RESOLVENT and she was cured, and I see no traces of the humor left. I can truthfully say that they have saved her life, and any one suffering as she did, I should advise them to give CuticurRa a fair trial. Feb.7,'98. Mrs.G.A.CONRAD, Lisbon, N.

Entertains Thousands of People. Yesterday was “The Broadway’s” birth- day, and it celebrated the event in a right royal style. Every lady caller was pre- sented with a magnificent large picture of the battleship Maine as she proudly rode the rippling waters of Havana Bay before 'the explosion—~a truly up-to-date idea and worthy of so generous a house. To say that crowds were in attendance all day long ‘is drawing it mild—the house was really one of the busiest places in town. The display of furniture, carpets, rugs, draperies and housefurnishing goods was remarked by every one as being far, far in advance of anything ever shown before in St. Louts. Variety is one of ‘The Broadway’s” strong points, and the Post-Dispatch re- porter was amazed at finding such an enor- mous stock and all so beautiful and withal all so low-priced. Style is a very desirable thing in furni- ture—even in the cheaper kinds—and ‘“‘The Broadway” has certainly succeeded in mak- ing ‘‘style’’ stick out in all its forest pleces. ‘The Broadway” is to-day the largest |furniture and carpet house in St. Louis, its retail store at Broadway and Locust, with its six grand floors, being reinforced by a warehouse even larger at Second and n e. In a city like this many people find It more convenient to buy the'r household goods on credit, for they are thus enabled to select better goods at the start. To such ‘The Broadway” holds out a helping hand and makes prices so reasonable that there Is no excuse fcr cheap and inferior goods going into any house. To-day “The Broadway” enters upon its second year of a success which has been marked from the very day the doors opened. Long may it wave, WAR IN MEDICAL CIRCLES. Dr. Ozias Paquin Dropped as a Member of the Medical Society After He Had Resigned. At the last regular meeting of the Acad- omy of Medical and Surgical Science it was decided to strike the name of Dr. Ozias Pa- | quin from the roster of membership in view of the fact that Dr. Paquin had paid for ad- 'vertising epace in the newspapere, making known his treatment for alcohol!sm. | Dr. Paquin was seen at his office in the 'Chemical building and said: “I have been | expelled from an organization of which I 'was not a member. Nearly a ae agc ‘resigned my membership and the position | of secretary of the society. At first they re- 'fused to accept my resignation, but upon 'my absolute refusal to act longer they were ' forced to elect another secretary and when ' that was done I most certainly consider that r, severed all connection with the organiza- tion. ; “TIT most emphatically deny that I have done anything contrary to justice and right. It is true that I paid for space fn the news- papers, yet every statement was founded on fact and contained nothing that I would consider an infraction of the rules of the society or code of medical ethica. Hardly a day passes that mention is not made of some St. Louls phyvrician and his work, yet because I am willing to pay for this men- tion I must be singled out and made an example of. TI can’: understand why it is wrong for me to pay for what some other physicians luckily get for nothing. “The peculiar character of my treatment precludes.the possibility of me bringing It before the public in any other way than by pers. Which we have dune in a modest, hon- est Way. “I attempted to put the treatment before the public bv bringing it to the notice of the medical world and scored a diémal failure. I then had published tn the ne clear statement and the fund ill-smelling. therefore uses the least ice.

Tuesday night's seselon of the Municipal o I: a clear statement of facts in the newsFpa- | a | ket fol Assembly will decide the fate of the old ‘North and South and its twin measure, the Central Traction Railroad bill. The Mayor has vetoed both bills and they are before the House of yr Previous votes in e House shdw that there will be no difficulty in passing the bills or either of them over the veto. But , the hitch comes in the Councli and there all depends upon the vote of one man. He tye gemma Frederick G. LUthoff of South st. uis. Friends of the big grab and friends of the Administration have made a livély struggie to win Mr. Uthoff to their way of thinking, but even after the vetoes were sent in last Friday night nefther side could say on which side he would throw the die and set. tle a question that is uppermost in the mu- nicipal mind. In the House to-night the charter amend- ments that have be given thetr first reading. The programme is for the House to meet from day to day until the amendments come to a final vote. So far no opposition has developed to any of the amendments and a will probably be in the Mayor's hands by Friday. This is as the Mayor desires, as he is anxious to get the amendments before the people. MARKETS BY TELEGRAPH. CHICAGO, April 12.—-Wheat today was very dull.
