WASHINGTON, April 13, 3:25 Bulletin ——A riot has just occurred in the House. Representative Bartlett has just made an assault on Representative Buck of Georgia. Great excitement and disorder prevails. It was occasioned by the objection of Bailey of Texas to the immediate con- sideration without debate of the majority report from the Committee on Foreign Affairs. The Sergeant-at-Arms is now endeavoring to restore order. “Doc” Norton of Ohio hit Representative Gaines of Tennessee across the shoulder in attempting to quell the disorder.

By the Associated Press. MADRID, April 13, 3:30 a. m.—“The doctrines contained in President McKinley’s message are incompatible with the sover- eignty and rights of Spain, and are an interference in the interna-| tional affairs of the country; but the Spanish Cabinet is not called upon to take action until the President’s recommendations become specific acts.” The above is the conclusion of the Spanish Cabinet. The Cabinet meeting lasted five hours, and it.was devoted to the consideration of President McKinley’s message to Congress on the Cuban situation. When the ministers adjourned an official note was issued, setting forth the views of the Government. In brief, the note sets forth that the Cabinet has granted an extraordinary credit for war purposes, and has incidentally increased the grant for the account of the artillery of Porto Rico. Premier Senor Sagasta designated two of the ministers to esnodiately draw up an address to the crown. Senor Gullon read a report of the text of President McKinley’s message. Al- though several paragraphs were lacking, the Cabinet after referring to the Presi- dent’s previous messages, which were considered necessary in order to fill up! the gaps in the present summary, decided that the paragraphs read were sufficient | for the Cabinet to affirm that the Government refuses to acknowledge the right of the United States to interfere in Cuba, adding: “The doctrines contained in the message are incompatible with the sovereignty and rights of the nation, and are an interference in the international affairs of this country.” The Spanish Government, however, expressed the opinion that it is not called , upon to take action until the recommendations of President McKinley have be- come specific acts. Thus it is considered by the Spaniards here that matters are | practically as they were before the message was sent to Congress, and the opinion is expressed in official circles that neither the message nor last night's Cabinet meeting has changed the prospects of peace. The Spanish Government considers that ,apart from its solemn affirmation of Spain’s rights as a nation, the Ministers are not called upon to make any declara- tions so long as the resolutions of Congress or the initiative of President McKinley do not lead to concrete acts. The official note also says: “A firm consciousness of its rights, united with the resolution to maintain them, will inspire the nation, as they inspire the Government with serenity necessary in these difficult moments to direct successfully and defend energetically the sacred interests which are the patrimony of the Spanish race.” The Minister of War, Gen. Correa, and the Minister of Marine, Admiral Ber- mejo, submitted reports relating to the measures taken towards mobilizing all the forces of the country. The Minister of Finance, Senor Puigoerver, read a decree already drawn up, relative to the national subscription to increas¢ the strength of the fleet.

CUSHMAN. K. DAVIS. Senator Cushman K. Davis of Min- nesota is the Chairman of the Com- mittee on Foreign Relations, whose duty it is to report the resolution which will cause war between Spain and the United States. The other members of the Committtee are Sen- ator Frye of Maine, Cullom of Illi- nois, Lodge of Massachusetts, Clark of Wyoming, Foraker of Ohio, Mor- gan of Alabama, Gray of Delaware, Turpie of Indiana, Daniel of Virgir.ia, and Mills of Texas. The position in which Senator Davis finds himself is one of the gravest responsibility. To duo him justice, he is strong. Sen- ator Davis is aggressive, yet con- servative. The Senator knows what war means. He passéd through the civil strife of 1861-66 with honor. He is careful and just. Never before has he had the great authority and responsibilities he now faces thrust upon him. ROBERT R. HITT. Congressman Robert R. Hitt Is Chairman of the House Commit- tee on Foreign Affairs, whose duty it is to report a similar resolution in the House. The Com- mittee has for members, besides Mr. Hitt. Congressmen Adams of Pennsylvania, Quigg of New York, Cousins of Iowa, Smith of Michigan, Heatwole of Minnesota, Pearson of North Carolina, Gillett of Massachu- setts, Henry of Indiana, Dinsmore of Arkansas, Newlands of Nevada, Clark ot Missour!, Williams of Mis- sissipp!, Berry of Kentucky, and Howard of Georgia. Mr. Hitt's train- ing has helped him wonderfully. He has been Assistant Secretary of State (under Blaine) and Secretary of Le- gation in Paris—from 1874 to 188L These two positions alone would serve to give him extraordinary breadth. Then he ha® been in Con- gress so long that he knows all the ins and outs of the legislative part of the Government. “GOD KNOWS WHAT WILL BECOME OF THEM.” There are 30 Americans left tn Ma- tangas.

See WASHINGTON, April 13.—The Senate intervention resolu- tion goes over until to-morrow. ’ WASHINGTON, April 13.—The following is the majority resolution report to the Senate by Senator Davis immediately upon the conveging of the Senate at noon to-day: more than three years in the Island of Cuba, so near to our own States, have Been a disgrace to Christian civilization, culminating, as they have, in the destruction of a United States battleship, with 266 officers and crew, while on a friendly visit to the harbor of Havana, and cannot longer be endured, as has been set forth by the President of the United States in his message to Congress of April 11, 1898, upon which the action of Congress was invited, therefore, Resolved, First, that the people of the Island of Cuba are, and of right onght to be, free and independent. 2. That it is thealuty of the United States to demand and the Government of the United States does hereby demand that the Government of Spain at once relinquish its authority and govern- ment in the Island of Cuba and withdraw its land and naval forces from Cuba and Cuban waters. 3. That the President of the United States be, and he hereby is, directed and empowered, to use the entire land and naval forces of the United States and to call into actual service of the United necessary to carry these resolutions into effect. . As soon as the Senate met Chairman Davis presented this report of the For- eign Relations Committee, embracing the above resolution. The committee di- vided, Senator Foraker and the Democrats of the committee submitting a report declaring for direct recognition of the Cuban Republic. . Senator Turpie presented the report of the minority of the committee as follows: The undersigned members of the Committee on Foreign Rela- .tions cordially concur in the report made upon the Cuban resolu- tions, but we favor the immediate recognition of the Republic of ereign power among the nations of the world. It was signed by Senators Turpie, Mills, Daniel and Foraker. - No demonstration of any kind occurred eithet upon the floor or in the galler- ies during the reading of the report of the committee, but the report as it was read made a deep impression. It is regarded as a powerful—almost bitter—arraignment of Spain. The majority report is a thorough review of thé entire situation, and a strong — presentation of the facts which has led the committee to its conclusions.

The difficulty of demonstrating by conclusive proof the ef- ficient personal cause of that sinister evert was the usual one of exposing plotted and mysterious crimes. No such difficulty, however, obscures its official and re- sponsible cause.” he committee say that the explosion itself of the Maine was linked with a — of precedent transactions, “which cannot in reason be disconnected from it.” . With animus by Spain, so plainly apparent that no one can even plausibly deny its existence, it 1s merely one reason for the conclusion to which the investigating mind must come in considering the entire subject of the relatons of the United States with that government. It is the opinion of your committee that the destruction of the Maine was compassed either by the official act of the Spanish authorities or was made possible by a negligence on their part so willing and gross as to be equivalent in culpability to positive criminal action. 4; itor Rerty and life are destroyed by an act which the exercise of due gence by the person whose duty it is to use it could have prevented, the hap- pening of such an event is sufficient proof that that diligence was not employed. “The time of the explosion,” says the report, “must have been calculated for the moment when the Maine should swing within the destructive radius of the mine.” Concluding this portion of its presentation the committee says: “The duplicity, perfidy and cruelty of the Spanish character, as they always have been, are demon- strated still to continue by their manifestations during the present war in Cuba. All these circumstances considered cumulatively warrant the conclusion that the de- struction of the Maine was compassed cither by the official act of the Spanish au- thorities (and the ascertainment of the particular person is not material) or was made possible by a negligence on their part, so willing and gross as to be equiva- lent in culpability to positive criminal action.” The reading of the report occupied 47 minutes. resolution lie over under the rules until to-morrow. The Vice-President reserved his decision on the point of order. Senator Davis said there was no disposition to unduly press the question, though it would be pressed as rapidly as possible. The speaking would in itself be sufficient to throw the case over until to-morrow. The chair decided Senator Hoar’s point of order well taken. WAR IS CERTAIN: SPAIN MUST LOSE. oF French Statesmen Differ in Their Views on the Right of America to Intervene. | a al Mr. Hoar demanded that the Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch. Copyright by the Press Publishing Company, 1898. PARIS, April 13.—War is still considered by politicians and people of all shades of opinion here as inevitable. Rene Goblet, former Prime Minister, said to-day: “I consider the President’s message so menacing that war is certain. I do not consider humanity in the case of Cuba as ground for action, but only for moral in- tervention. | “T have good reason for telling you that France and the Powers are still actively mediating. “The chief Power so employed is Queen Regent.” Charles Dupuy, who was Prime Minister in 1893, said: “If the message represents the feeling of Congress and Congress represents the feeling of the American people, there must be war. “Tl do not agree with the opinion that America has no right to) interfere on the ground of humanity. I consider all nations a pclice morale, with powers of sur- veillance over the conduct of each individually.” M. Flourens, Minister of Foreign Affairs in 1886, says: “T have not read the whole message, but I understand that its tone is final.” “Will Spain accept inevitable humiliatibn?” “I do not think so. Spain, however, must lose in the long run for want of funds.” CONCENTRATING THE SPANISH SQUADRON, ,_-_ Spain Orders Her Warships to Assemble in the Waters of Cape Verde Islands. Austria, whose Emperor is related to the _ WASHINGTON, April 13.—Spain’s two cruisers, the Vizcaya and jthe Almirante Oquendo, which recently arrived at Porto Rico from Havana, have salled from Porto Rico. It is understood their destination is the Cape Verde Islands. In withdrawing the armored crulsers Vizcaya and Almirante Oquendp from western waters Spain has acied in a manner which is approved by navel experis, when think- ing of her intereste. At Cape Verde Islands they will join the armored cruisers Cristobal Colon and the Infanta Maria Teresa, whieh are en route to that place, and the first tornedo flotiila, which, it ts offic'aly stated, consists of th® transport steamer Ciudad de Cadiz, torpedo boat destroyers Furor, Terror and Pluton and torpedo boats Arie}, Azore and Rayon, It is appreciated by the officials that the union of the four armored cruisers and the flotilla makes a formidible-foree, but it is, of course, impossible to prevent it at this time, It had been hoped by the officlals that the American fleet would be able to catch and destrov the Vizcaya and Oquendo before they could join the remainder of the Spanish fleet, and it is admitted that Spain acted with good judgment In directing them to proceed to the Cape Verde Islands. It is admitted by the authorities that Spain has at her disposal a force which will prevent the American navy from gainingan easy victory, and if war should break Out some hard fighting may be expected. It is evident that Spain expects an attack on Havana, and it ts for this reason that ehe withdrew the Vizcaya and the Almirante Oquendo from that harbor. It is true that she has not, at least according to the latest advices of the Navy Department, moved her torpedo and cruiser fleet farther in this direction, but this is thought to be due to the fact that she is afraid to start it this way on its long journey across the ocean lest war be declared and the fleet be taken at great disadvantage by the flying squadron, which would be advised of the outbreak of war instantly and ‘could move across its path. Of course if the Spaniards sailed from Porto Grande they would come under sealed orders or on orders to look out for hostile American ships, but this would not prepare them for a sudden attack by the flying squadron, which could pick its time and place for fighting. If Havana is invested and the Spanish fleet moves to its assistance part of Capt. Sampson's fleet would have to meet it, unless the flying squadron be kept in these waters. The Cape de Verde fleet Is not strong enough now, however, to make such precaution necessary, and it is considered that the Key West squadron will be sufficient for the work of capturing Havana and of holding the torpedo flotilla at bay or of dispersing and destroying it, and allow the flying squad- ron to carry out the plan already worked out of making a dash at the Canaries and cutting In two Spain's weak line of defense.

GEN: FITZHUGH LEED WASHINGTON, April 13.—At 10 o'clock this morning a joint committee from the Union Veteran Legion and the Confederate Veterans’ Association of the District of Co- lumbifa, called on Consul-General Lee at the Shoreham Hotel and invited him to attend i public reception to be giverf in his honor at @n early day. In response to their very pressing invita- tion the General said that he would rather not have a reception, The people of Washb- appreciated their kindness. He was. very tired, however, and would much prefer to rest a While in Washington. It was ex-~- piained that there wouid be no handshak- ing cxcept with the ladies, and the only speech that wou'ld be permitted would be a very brief address of welcome by Corperal Tanner. The old soldiers in line wouki give him the military salute instead of shaking hands, and altogether the reception-.would be made very easy for him. It was stated further that the citizens of Washington were extremely anxious to meet him and out of deference to their wishes, the com- mittee thought the General should waive his objections and perm:t them to proceed with the arrangements. He stoutly insisted, however. that he needed rest and in addition he thought it unwfse to appear in so public ington had been very kind to him and he} 4 Manner. To an appeal from an old com- rade that he couid afford to surrender once in his life, especially to his friends and ad- mirers, the General finally consented‘to hold the matter in abeyance until 10:30 o’clock to-morrow, when he would give the coemit- tee his answer. Several] members of the committee after- ward expressed the opinon that the Gen- eral should not appear in this public way, especially at this time. His consent, it was said, might be misinterpreted and give rise to criticism. It is altogether probable that the reception will not be held. During the committee’s conference with yen. Lee, Senor Palma, the head of the ‘Cuban Junta in New York. and Senor Que- | sada, their Washington representative, were introduced. The General shook hands with them in a formal way, but. said nothing. Gen. Joe Wheeler, member of Congress from Alabama, was among the callers.at the Shoreham this morning. As to his plans for the day, Gen. Lee said that as’soon as he had breakfasted he would go to the State, War and Navy Departments, to call upon the officials. Further than that, he made no plans. He did not expect to appear hefore anv of the Congressional committees to-day. Gen. Lee was very hoarse this morning, owing to the open-air speeches he had been. compelled to make during the last two davs. Otherwise he seemed to be in good condition. I hurried out afoot and after a while found Mr. Brinckerhoff and Mr. Del- gado and notified them of the news. We got together and talked the matter over and after some discussion we all decided that the only way we could get out of the city alive was to go by-~stealth. Mr. Brincecker- hoff and myse!f then went to the Governor's palace to get Gen. de Aramas to issue our passports And when we told him we were going to leave he asked how we were going to do it. ‘“T cold him of our plans, and to show what control the Governor had over the city and what protection he could guarantee any one, he answered, ‘That's right; slip out as quiet- ly as you can’ We then began to pack up what effects we could gather together hur- riedly and made our final arrangements. “Luckily the Jarisberg happened to be in port taking on a cargo of éugar and at the time I received Gen. Lee’s final warning she had gotten her clearance papers and was all ready to leave. I sent word out to the Captain to wait for us, as it was our only chance of getting away. At 10 o'clock we left the city one by one and went two miles up the Yumuri River, where we loaded d@r buggage on a small boat, and get- ting in ourse!ves, floated down the river and out into the bay. ‘Here's where the funny part comes in. We had been told that there was only one stenmer in the harbor, and what do you suppose we did? Ran smack up against a Spanish steamer, the Saturnina, and had part of our baggage and ourseives on board before we found out our mistake. “The captain was not on board and we only saw two sailors, but you can bet that we got off that ship without losing any time. We finally got safely aboard the Jarisberg, and at midn ght steamed out of the harbor and then ail breathed a sigh of relief. Had there been an inkling that we were going to leave, everyone of us would have been corpses. “T turned over all my papers to the British Consul, John J. de Costa, before leaving, and also. placed in his hands the authority to continue the distributon of the supplies I had been unable to dispose of. I brought the American flag that we used at the consulate with mg, however.” Mr. Brice said that there were 350 Ameri- cans left behind in Matanzas and that their lives were .n the greatest peril. “T asked for a ship to come and take them away,’ he said, “but none was sent and God knows what will become of them now. Relief ought to be sent to them and at once. The day before I left & of them, men and women,.came to me and begged me for God's sake to take them out of the country. I told them I could do for them, for 1 had spent ail my money it helping the reconcentrados and had to bor- row money to come away with.” AMERICANS ABROPD é&treets,.

The wheelmen will have a big celebra- tion Decoration day, upon the realization of their iong cherished hope for a cinder path from Bissell’s Point, Grand avenue, to the Chain of Rocks. The path is an achievement of the Waterworks Depart- ment, built without cost to the city, with cinders from the boilers at the Waterworks’ engine houses, under the charge of Capt, John A. Laird. The path is about 11 miles in length, of a smooth. surface, slightiy undulating at points. It is 20 feet wide at the widest and nine feet at the narrowest point. The idea of a bicycle cinder path on the big conduit from the Chain of Rocks to Grand avenue originated with Water Com- missioner Holman, more than a year ago, He saw that it would be a good and prac- tical use to put the cinders to that had become such a bother at the pumping sta- tions. and instead of throwing them away he would utilize them for the benefit and gratification of the 20,000 wheelmen-and wheelwomen of the city. It Is now about complete, and is one of the best and longest special cycle roadways in the country. Three wheelmen can easily ride abreast, even at the narrowest point, and its eleyva- tion and construction preclude its use by any vehicles except bicycles. Thousands of cyclists will join in the grand opening parade in the afternoon of Decoration Day. The opening event will be a race between crack cyclists of the Water Department, and the cyclists will take advantage of the occasion to express their appreciation to Commissioner Holman and Capt. Laird. \ THEY WILL HAVE LIQUOR, Gage Admits That Law Cannot Be En- - forced in the Klondike.

Freight Trains Co , | Te ) | et { ina Deep Cut. ee = Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, April 13.—Ten to fifteen days will probably elapse before the crisis culminates. Here is the President's present plan of operation in a nutshell: If the proposed resolution is passed by Congress the President is convinced a formal call on Spain to quit must be made. She must “at once withdraw her land and naval forces.” The President is fully aware that Spain will not be the aggressor. — ee It is Mr. McKinley’s plan Spain shall in some way take the initiative. This is the way he intends to cause her to do so: Several transports will carry food supplies to the starving in Cuba. ; Some of the recently purchased steamers are designated for the work. The Prairie and the Yankee are probably of the number. They will be laden with guartermasters stores. The Quartermaster and Commissary departments of the army are prepared to act quickly. The President thinks that time should be given Spain to consider the demands made upon her. From five to seven days is the period he is disposed to concede, Then, as soon after as it is practicable, the transports laden with stores will be convoyed to Cuba by men-oi-war. This is why troops are being concentrated at Key West. The Consuls will be sent back to their posts and given full protection. If re- sistance is made by Spain’s land or naval forces, then war will have been begun by Spain. A message will probably soon be sent to Congress. It will call for an appro- priation to meet the expenses for the food supplies for the reconcentrados. The above is the President’s plan in a nutshell. WIT.LIAM SHAW BOWEN. i.

Plan for the Capture of the City and the Destruction of 7 Spain’s Fleet. 4 WASHINGTON, April 13.—An official of the Navy Department is authority for the statement that it has been determined as soon as war is declared that Capt. Sampson will steam for Havana and attack it by sea and that a land force will hasten to his aid and invest the city on the west, thus cutting it off entirely from the rest of the island, except by means of the inner harbor. Havana can be readily and safely shelled from the sea without exposing the attacking vessels to a damagipg fire. This is the opinion of Capt. Sigsbee, who made a careful study of the defenses of the city during his stay there. It is also the opinion of Gen. Lee, who has made even a closer study of the defenses of the capital.

E. King. ‘HE HIRED MEN TO COLLECT. BILLS WERE UNCOLLECTIBLE, BUT SECURITY MONEY WAS RETAINED. PLENTY OF UNFORTUNATES. fices Whenever They Demanded the Return of Their Money. _—— Five more warrants were issued Wednes- day morning against H. E. King, charged with swindling by means of a fake employ- ment scheme. The well-fitted offices of the Standard Mercantile and Collection Co. remained locked Wednesday and a long-line of vic- tims who had read the exposure of the Swindle in the Post-Dispatch, stood in the hallway of the Holland building awaiting the chance to regain the deposits they had made, There were a number of women in the crowd; sad-eyed, disappointed women, who had placed their money with King in the beliet that the empioyment offered was gen- uine and respectable. They did not linger long, and hurried away tearfully to get advice or avoid publicity. Prosecuting Attorney Mulvihill found a dozen men waiting to file complaints against King, and three warrants for grand lar- ceny and two for petit larceny resulted. Joseph Schulz, 4261 North Twentieth Street, went to work for King, March 8. He deposited $50, but didn’t collect anything. He asked for his salary after the first week, but got nothing. He heid the position of collector until April 8, when he demanded his $50. Under threats of exposure he se- cured a check for $5, but he persisted in demanding the remaining $45, and was thrown out of the office for an answer. When he presented his check to the Con- tinenta]l Bank it was pronounced no good. Henry Evans, 4261 North Twentieth street, Was employed two weeks. He went to work March 14 and deposited $10. He came here froen Mineral Poini, Mo. M. G. Henson, 406 Dorcas street, was told that he must put up $50 to secure a job, but as he had only $15, King kindly took that and Kept it. Henson collected none of the bills placed in his hands. William Shultz, 2211 South Third street, came over from Jerseyville, Ill., and gave King $30 for a job. He worked one week and got nothing. John I, Lancaster, 612 Teresa avenue, a recent arrival from Clarksville, Miss., went up against the fake $15 worth. He worked only three days and was threatened with violence when he demanded his money back. Marion Whitman, 610 North Seventh street, gave King $50 to secure a position at $40 per month and 2 per cent on his collec- tions. He worked 17 days and collected #2, which he dutifully turned in to the Standard Mercantile and Collection Agency. When he decided to ‘“‘quit’’ Ghe demanded back his mo ggg and was instantly thrown out of the office. An odd phase of the case is the fact that all the men swindled by King were sent to him by labor agencies which “‘guaranteed’”’ the applicants positions upon the payment of $2. The guarantee was made good when King employed the aspirant, and under the circumstances the law cannot reach the labor agencies involved. A number of new warrants will be issued Wednesday or Thursday. THE HENRY SHAW ESTATE. Supreme Court Hears Argument,in the Proceedings to Sell Part of It. The application of the trustees of Henry Shaw to sell part of his real estate was ‘up for argument this morning at Jeffer- son City before the Supreme Court en banc. Messrs. Judson and Hitchcock argued on behalf of the trustees, while George W. Taussig appeared in opposition. We argued that the trustees were not warranted in their proceeding, that the will of Shaw must be carried out, and the prop- erty preserved in specie, in order to carry trust for ail time. Mr. Taussig cited the case of Johns ‘Hopkins, the founder of Hopkins University, in which the reater part of the fund of $300,000 had been ost, because the Investment was in person- alty. On the other hand Stephen Girard, in 1831, gave some real estate in Pennsyl- vania, and directed that it should never be sold. The property now brings over one million dollars rent each year, and yet in 1831 the value of Girard's land was not as great as Henry Shaw’s. Mr. Taussig cited many cases where. in England, charity estates had grown enor- 'mous.y in value, and the income was surely and regularly paid. He argued that if these trustees were al.owed to sell the property and invest the money in stocks, bonds, etc., that in a few years the capital will be lost by speculation, shrinkage, etc, The will of Henry Shaw requires the trustees to jease the property and never sell the same, and Mr. Taussig argued that unless the will is obeyed that soon the trust will disap- pear, Mr. Judson, for the trustees, argued that it is necessary to obtain leave to sell the property in order to carry out the pur- poses of the trustees. This is the second ‘time this case has been argued and submitted in court en bane. The resignation of Judge Barclay and the death of Judge Macfarlane neces- sitated reargument, in order that the new Judges might be familiar with the facts in the case. byterianism for Episcopalianism.

A Chief Engineer, a Surgeon and a Boatswain Will Assist Him in Picking Out Desirable Recruits. Lieutenant-Commander John M. Hawley, U. S. N., arrived in St. Louls Wednesday morning. He remained only a few hours, leaving on a noon train for Cleveland, O. His visit was preliminary to the immediate opening of a recruiting station in St. Louls. Men are wanted for Uncle Sam's ships, and when the Lieutenant-Commander returns to this city next Tuesday he will be accompanied by two other raval officers and a boat- swain, who will see that the men enlisted here are the right sort. Before taking his train Lieut. Hawley se- cured the former prmy recruiting office, in the old Federal Building, at hird and cave streets, for the naval recruiting sta- on. The three classes of men desired are or- dinary seamen, machinists and apprentices. Lieut. Hawley will supervise the enlisting, but the examinations will be conducted by Chief Engineer Webster, Surgeon Persons and Boatswain Duffy. The machinists and electricians will be picked by the chief engineer, the boatswain will see that the recruits possess the qualli- fications necessary in good ordinary sea- men and eqgeranswen. the surgeons will pase upon the physical condition of the accepted men and the lot will be approved of by Lieut. Hawley. The latter expects to have the station opened by Wednesday next, Or et the lateat by Thursday. There is no hint to the men to be recruited As many who pre themselves will be accepted, provided course, they s the examination. L/ Hawley found time while in St. Louts V nesday to visit the —avee, where he met a number of river men. @ says they told him there would be no lack of recruits from river circles, which was pleasant news to him. Such men, he says, already know the rt from the star- side of a vesse age of the The younger will go in for three years, the middle age! will be accepted for two years and the elderly men, if they are sound physically, will be taken for one year. ) The apprentices must be over li ,cais old, be able to read and write and must have the written consent of both parents if living or of the rdian if the og cant is an orphan. e apprentices will be sent to the school ship St. Magy. Lieut. Hawley was detached from the cruiser Detroit two years ago, and has since been in charge of all the navy recruit. ing stations in the oamanry. He left Wash- ington a month ago on his present assign- ment and opened a station in Galveston There he added 68 men to Uncle Sam's jackies, and the day he sent them East the entire city turned out as a complimentar, escort to the train. A brass band headed the procession and the ladies of Galveston pelted the recruits with roses aa they marched to the depot. The Galveston office was open a week, and then Lieut. Hawley, Engineer Web- ster, Surgeon Persons and the indispensable Boatswain Duffy moved to New Orleans. Here they accepted 57 men, and after see- ing them on a train for New York the re- cruiting officers opened for business in Cleveland. The Ohio city by the lake has contributed an even half hundred to the navy, which ts all Lieut. Hawley thinks he will get there. He is sure that St. Loute will greatly exceed the combined enlistment of the three citits mentioned, — The pay of the recruite will begin from the moment they sign their names to the enlistment papers. “ee seamen will receive $19 a month. Machinists of the first class get $55, of the second class $40, and of the third class $0 a month. Ap- prentices of the first class are pald $21 a month, of the second class $15 and of the third class $9. Recruiting officers have also been sent to om St. Paul and other Northwestern Cc es.

Francis Bacon, tn his essay on Cunning, observed that he knew one who, when he wrote a letter, put the most important matter in a postscript “as if it were a bye matter.” The President certainly had this in mind when he added the postscript to his message hinting at delay. Pa He seems to think that delay is the beginning and the end, the first and the last, the Alpha and Omega of sound states- manship. ~ = = — a.

Aa. i a THE PRESIDENT'S APOLOGISTS. The President's apologists are not improving his case. it was sald that had the President known the terms of the proclamation of truce he would not have added the postscript to his message. But why did he accept Spain's vague assur- ance on mere faith? He founded a definite recommendation upon an indefinite promise. More serious than this is the announcement in Administra- tion organs that he withheld the diplomatic correspondence from Congress and the people out of “consideration for condi- tions in Madrid.” The publication of the correspondence might entise trouble in Spain, perhaps revolution. That ts to Say, the President wishes to do nothing likely to weaken a nation with which we may be at war within a week. Why so much consideration for Spain? What about his own country? Moreover, if the words “to establish a stable government capable Of maintaining order and observing its international oblizations” mean “nothing but independence,” why was the civeumlocution resorted to? The fact is they do not mean inde- pendence. They will mean whatever they may be required toe mean when the time comes to | make them mean some- that Spain was about to yield. Instead of yielding she replied with a sarcasm—the proclamation of truce. | The President’s advisers are corporation attorneys and rep- resentatives of special interests. There is, unfortunately, only one statesman among them, and he is senile. Unless Congress speedily puts a stop to this Cabinet juggling and executive nervousness, we are likely to- be landed in complications from which it will require more wisdom than is now in office to ex- tricate us, a “ae | 3 The Circulation of last Sunday’s Post-Dispatch was 125,282. = = — a Our Municipal Assemblymen do not believe with the Su- preme Court that the streets of St. Louis belong to the people ot St. Louis. hi. dy i THE WRONG AND THE REMEDY. The Central Traction bill is now an ordinance, but the city may yet be rescued from the clutches of this ubiquitous cor- poration. The Julian law, passed for the very purpose of regulating the grant of franchises and preventing such outrages, was ignored by the Council in passing the bill, but should the Supreme Court sustain its constitutionality the action of the Council last night will be void and of no effect. Should the court deny the validity of the Julian law, the only remedy for the wrong done the public by public servants, will be the taxation of the franchise which the Legislature may authorize. But the remedy against the members who have thus enabled a gang of franchise grabbers to steal the commonwealth lies in a strict and thorough inquiry by the proper authorities. When the North and South bill was before the Assembly two distinct charges of corruption were made and as tthe Cen- tral Traction ordinance is practically the same measure it ts a legitimate presumption that the same influences were behind it. This ds a fit subject for the grand jury to take up. ——_—______#¢¢ The Laclede Gas Company may be tmmortal, but the Su- preme Court seems to think it is not omnipotent. The city still has some rights which the corporation is bound to respect. 4 + «& — a COMFORT FOR THE BONDMONGERS. The -bondmongers’ organs urge as a telling objection to war the inevitable bond issue and increase in the public debt. Well, this is an objection, and it seems very kind in the bond- mongers to remind us of it. But it is well to think twice be- fore we trust the Greeks when they come bearing gifts. When- ever a bond issue is ordered the great financiers are so quick to take it, that there is a popular impression that they like it aud don’t subscribe for merely patriotic motives. But after all they need not worry. A popular loan will re- lieve them of the burden of patriotism. The people will take the bonds if issued in low denominations. Let the financiers be comforted, oud ~~ eS Suppose one of the Americans now under the protection of the British Consul at Havana should be maltreated by the Spaniards. What would Her Majesty’s Government do abou it? Everybody knows how to answer this question. It is nA calculated to make Americans feel proud. Remember the Alaine. a The President finds the condition of affairs intolerable and then suggests a plan which will perhaps mitigate the suffering for atime, but does not touch the root of the trouble. Inde- pendence is the only solution—immediate and unqualified. ‘= = — a ec If Mr. Uthoff could realize the disgust with which he is re- garded he would not feel very comfortable. The people who elected him have a right to kick themselves hard and fre- quently. \ ——-__—_—____---@-@ After having subjected us to great business losses, destroyed one of our best battleships and killed more than 260 of our seamen, Spain is still sensitive as to what we say of her. The Mayor is mistaken. The members of the Municipal As- sembly are not public servants. They were elected as such, but it seems the people were mistaken. Mr. Uthoff may be perfectly well satisfied, but it is dollars to dimes he is not comfortable this raw day. Failing in battle, failing in bribery, failing in treachery, how can Spain look for aid in any quarter? It is easier to send a Federal lobby to Michigan than to send a Federal force to Cuba. POST-DISPATCH SNAP SHOTS. Three jeers for Lee gave the Spanish mob **Three cheers for Lee!"’ say we. Just wait a bit and we'll give ’em Fitz, And Cuba will be free. The most popular citizen of the United States to-day Is Fitznugn Lee. The message is complimented by Congressmen who have had pie to distribute. Uncle Henry will go after some Spanish flags with which to decorate the new City Hall. Just a little bit of Wisdom would gave would not be harmed in the least. The greatly increased receipts from water rents is more gratify- ing to the collector than to the consumer. The neck of the Missouri war mule is not clothed with thun- der, but there is lightning in his heels. Once the war begins, Spain's shamming will be at an end. This country is very tired of ‘‘diplomacy.”’ Mayflower is not the best name for a war vessel. The Thistle, the Jimson or the P’lson Ivy would be better. President McKinley is like the duster, who every day brushes the dust into the air so that it may settle again. The President has changed his mind so often that Mr. T'thoff may have felt it no evil to change the Uthoff ideas. Now that she has a millionaire husband, the ghost merely walk for Julia Arthur—it will sprint for her. With a big tobacco trust increasing prices, the chewing con- sumer may be driven to the awful alternative of gum. The gunboat Princeton, which Dialogue & Son are building, may cause considerable talk if it should be completed in time. What will the Mayors of Spanish ciudads do when our Mayor rushes his furious St. Louisans to the breaches in their walls? St. Louls is to be congratulated on the heroism of its Mayor and the Mayor is to be congratulated on the hergism of his sons. The Peruvians are astonished at an American machine that makes 90,000 cigarettes in an hour, but they do not seem to be afraid of it. With Uncle Henry to face dangers from without and {Uncle Henry’s brave doys to confront dangers within, St. Louis is very well protected. Spaniards have been pelting the) American flag with eggs. They will have to resort to much harder shells if they are to do much harm to Old Glory : If we don’t fight the Dons Col. ‘Ziegenhein will have nothing to show for his patriotism but his title, and coionels without scars are already too numerous. | The most striking part of a woman's letter is the postscript. And so it is with the President's message, the postscript of which favors the sham armistice, A St. Louls inventor having found a way to deliver cooked food to residences through tubes, should now turn his attention to some scheme for the digestion of our daily meals. - a i i ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS.

If you were to send them THIS ORCHID IS WORTH $5000. to a church to help out the Easter decor- ations you would be laughed to scorn, and your precious orchids—that’s what they really are—would be tossed in the gutter by an insulted usher or an irate parson. Just the same, they aggregate a value of $7500—enough money to buy lilies for a dozen churches. The $5000 specimen here shown its the only specimen of its kind known to exist. If your jaws are limber you can pronounce its name. This is it: Odontoglossum. Its companion is called a phalaenopsis— a bad name even for an orchid to be called. Both floral vaMeties belong to one man—an Eng- lishman, who wouldn't sell them for $10,000, and yet—well, look at them! No species of any blooming thing ever fetched in open market as high prices as have been paid for orchids during the past five years. Not even the famous Dutch bulb craze saw such a jump in floral values THIS LITTLE SHRUB IS WORTH $2500. as has been caused by the orchid. The two unique specimens here portrayed are among the rarest blooms of their kind and, com- mercially at least, they mark the high top notch of value in the way of orchids. A WONDERFUL TREE. There are many other woods of great value in the Frazilian forests, but the most wonderful of all, from a single tree of which an enormous quantity of clear lum- ber is sald to be obtained, is the canahuba palm (Copernicia cerifert), which grows uAa- cultivated in the States of Parahiba, Ceara, Rio Grande do Norte, Piaubl, and some of the neighboring States. The descriptions given of it to me seem incredible. Perhaps in no other region is a tree to be found that can be employed for such varied and useful purposes, It resists intense and protracted droughts, and is always green and vigorous. Its roots produce the same medicinal] effects as sarsaparilla. Its stem affords strong. light fibers, which acquire a _ beautiful luster, and serves also for joists, rafters, and other building materials, as well as for stakes for fences, From parts of the tree wine and vinegar are made. It yields also a saccharine substance, a8 well as a starch resembling sago. In periods of famine, caused by protracted droughts, tritious substances obtained from it are of immense benefit to the poorer classes. Its) fruit is wsed for feeding cattle. The pulp has an agreeable taste; and the nut, whic is Oleaginous and emulsivey is sometimes used as a substitute for coffee. Of the wood of the stem musical instruments, water- tubes, and pumps are made. The pith is an excellent substitute for cork. From the stem a white liquid, similar to the milk of the cocoanut, and a flour resembling maiz- ena may be extracted. Of the straw, hats, baskets, brooms and mats are made. A considerable quantity of this straw is shipped to Europe; and a part of it returns to Brazil manufactured into hats. The straw is also u for thatching houses. Moreover, salt is extracted from It, and likewise an alkali used in the manufacture of common soap. But from an industrial and commercial point of view, the most valuable product of the carnahuba tree is the wax obtained from its leaves. From this wax candles are made, which are ex- tensively used in the northern Brazilian States. ——— SLANDERED.

The Body of an Indiana Banker Dug Up by Doctors. GREENSBURG. Ind4., April 13.—The disin- terment of the body of the late F. M. Dow- den, the wealthy banker, at midnight, Is the cause of great excitement. The work was secretly done and at midnight under the charge of Drs. Ranschoff, Zener, Kramer and Whittaker of Cincinnati and Dr. Floch- er of Indianapolis, who, after removing the body to the public vault, held a post-mortem. The brain, heart, one lung and one kidney were removed and taken to Cincinnati for examination. esas Pareons of this city reinterred the body. When it was first discovered that the grave had been opened and the body re- moved, it was suggested to have been the work of ghouls and the excitement was in- tense. For several ponre Mr. Dowden had suffered with a puzzling disease, the physt- elans treating him in the different eani- tariums being unable to agree upon a diag- nosis, and since his death they sought a post-mortem, which was objected to by the relatives. Shortly before death his widow was granted a divorce from Mr. Dowden, making sensational charges, and she was also given property amounting to $10,000. In his will their two po eng cog daughter by a former marriage were ’ sneueal portions, the bulk of the estate going to other relatives, one of whom was Harry Dowden, a brother, with whom he resided at the time ef his death. The sec- ond heir, Sam Dowden, filed a suit to con- test. It is known that the deceased was opposed to an autopsy, as were also all his relatives, although the eldest daughter, Mrs. Laura Burnett of Ottumwa, Io., finally consented, after bitterly opposing such ac- tion, TOOK A SPANISH PART. - John Brady Stabbed in Havlin’s The- ater While on the Stage.

Considerable anti- Spanish feeling was shown by the audience, and when Brady went out in the lobby between the second and third acts attired in his uniform, a negro suddenly confronted him and th?fust a dagger in his breast, at the same time cursing him as a enn te There was great excitement, in which the negro ran out of the lobby and reaper Brady was taken to the County Hospital, where it was said, his condition is critical.

OTTAWA, Ontario, April 13.—Dr. Nor- , denskjold, a relative of the famous Swed- ish explorer and himself not unknown to fame as a traveler in artio and antarctic regions, is staying in this city for a few days preparatory to starting out for the Yukon. He is commissioned by his uni- versity, that of Upsala, in Sweden, to make certain scientific observations in the sub- arctic regions of Canada and also to make inquiries in out-of-the way pg nen, in the hope of learning something of Herr Andree, the daring aeronaut who started last eum- mer to cross the North Pole in a balloon. Dr. Nordenskjold said that he had not given Andree up for lost at all. Of cou long abDsence was a cause for grave anxlie among his friends, but, notwiths what has been said to the contrary, Andree was both ‘well equipped and well prepared against every conceivable emergency. The fact that he wes heard from about two days after his departure was proof that the balloon was all right, although evi- dently it had not made as much northing as the aeronaut had expected. In the natura! order of things, he said, there was no like- lihood of Andree’s balloon being sighted as far south as British Columbia with the ex- plorer on board. PRINTERS’ STRIKE GROWING. Trouble May Soon Involve 5,000 Men in New York City. NEW YORK, April 13.—The strike of union printers and electrotypers in the book and job printing trade has assumed a more ee- rious aspect. It threatens to involve over 6000 workmen and nearly all the printing houses in the city. The allied printing trades, which include ail the union workmen of the branches, have resolved to make &@ combined fight against the employing Electrotypers’ Awmslation and the Ty- pothetae. The latest nove by the unions is to call out all the presemen and press feed- ers of the Adams Cylinder and Web Pre*s- men’s Union and the Franklin Association of Pressamen and Assietants. The Executive Committees of the two unlone of presasamen and assistants conferred with officers of Typographical Union No. 6, the Electro- typers’ Union and Stereotypers’ Union No, 1, last night, and both committees decided to call out all pressmen and feeders under their control when required to do so. “PRIMROSE & WEST” NO MORE.

A Great Race Run Over the Newport Track Near Cincinnati by the Daughter of Wagner. The Post-Dispatch yesterday gave a list of all the horses stabled at the Fair Grounds couree. The list included mostly the horses that have stabled there this winter. The great stables there that have been racing at San Francisco and New Orleans and those that have been in quarters at Memphis and other Southern racing points will not arrive here until a day or two be- fore the St. Louis meeting opens. The racing In California does not come to a close until Saturday, May 14, the day St. Louis opens, but many of the best horses there now will be shipped east before then, The Memphis meeting closes Saturday, April 30, or two weeks from the coming Sat- urday, and there will be big shipments in from there about then. Imp established a new record for a mile and 60 yards at Newport yesterday. She covered the distance in 1:43 flat, running the first mfle in 1:39, after cutting out her own pace from the start. The six furlongs was made in 1:13% and the seven furlon in +1:25%. Until yesterday there was really no American racing rec at one mile and 50 yards. The nearest thing to it was the mfle and 70 yards run by Lillian Lee, a 3- year-old, at the Harlem track, Chicago, carrying 9 pounds. She negotiated. the dis- tance in 1:484%. Lmp’s performance of yes- terday beat this all hollow. Carrying 106 pounds she went the distance in 1:43 flat, a really wonderful performance.

Board of Health Takes Precautionary Measures at Shawneetown. SPRINGFIELD, In., April 13.—Dr. J. A. Egan, Secretary of the State Board of Health, will leave for Shawneetown imme in the work of preventing the spread o1 outbreak of contagious diseases. Already over 100 pounds of disinfectants have beep forwarded to the scene of the disaster, and more will be sent when necessary. Chloride of lime and carbolic acid are to be used chiefly. It is believed by health experts that the dead animals, swampy marshes and conditions which will prevali when the water leaves, will be productive of all sorts of diseases and precautions will be taken to ward them off. Two more bodies were recovered yester- day—Emma and William Reinholdt, chil- dren of Fred Reinholdt. The work of searching for the dead is much hindered by the enormous amount of debris. It wil) take several days to complete the work. Two sandbars have formed in the patch of the flood, and it is feared many bodies are buried in the sand. A Jarge force of men are kept constantly at work removing large piles of wrecked buildings. The amount received up to date for the benefit of the sufferers is $7171.52. LOST IN MIDOCEAN. Wreck of the Marlborough and the Death of Her Crew. P NEW YORK, April 13.—The North Ger- man Lloyd steamship Saale, Capt. Blanke, from Genoa, Naples and Gibraltar, report- ed that on April 10, at 10 o’clock in the morning, a ship’s lifeboat was sighted. The Saale bore down to her, stopped and launched a lifeboat. Two men in an ex- hausted condition were found in the drift- ing boat. They were transferred to the steamship’s lifeboat, and on being hauled on board reported that they belonged to the bark Marlborough of Windsor, N. 8. commanded by Capt. Cochran, which sated from St. John, N. B., for Sharpness with a cargo of deals. The Marlborough experienced a succes- sion of heavy gaies, chiefly from the east- ward, in which she labored heavily, caus- ing her to leak badly. The storm continued until April 4, when, during the height of the gale, the ship broke up and went to pieces. The crew, consist! uf 17 men, attempt- ed to launch two lifeboats, but the boats were dashed to pieces before they reached the water. The crew had only one other boat. As this would not accommodate all. the men hastily made a life raft from the cargo of deals and 12 of them embarked upon it. Capt. Cochran and our men were last to leave in the remaining boat. Shortly after abandoning the Marlborough they could see nothing of the remainder of the crew. The captain's boat drifted away before the gale. Capt. Cochran died from exhaustion and exposure on Thursday, April 7. The fol- lowing day another occupant of the’ boat died, and on Easter morning, at daylight, another of the crew died. There were then left tn the boat Chief Officer George Marsted and James Fun- ning, seaman. MRS. WHITNEY’S INJURY. Her Vertebra Fractured as a Result of Her Recent Accident. NEW YORK.

He mapped out for himself a pe- culiar course in regard to this important measure and focused upon himself all the influences for and against it, by avoiding to go on record in the preliminary votes on the bill. He was the unknown quantity. the legislative conundrum, despite his promises to the Mayor. That the House of Delegates would ride roughshod oyer the Mayor’s veto wae a fore- gone conclusion, and that the Council would follow in its wake, if not restrained by Ut- hoff, was equally certain. But how would Uthoff vote? This was the question that flew around the assembly halls, No one could say. When approached on the subject, Uthoff’s curt reply was, ‘Wait and see’’ The only persons who showed no signs of anxiety were Promoter Eugene Sweeney and ex-Speaker L. C. Diekman, ROBERT ™.

The new City Hall wag officially dedicat- ed to the boodling franchise grabbers Tues- duy night. That iniquitous street railway grab. the Central Traction bill, duplicate of the in- famous old North and South Sweeney oc topus, has become a law. Councilman Frederick G. Uthoff did it.

Thies. too. in defiance of the fact that the ve eaptp—— eal P ae ose to protest or defend his vote. COUNCIL. Ji not was the last name on the roll. All who lately came to the front as the special lobbyist for the big grab. The Council held a ten minutes’ session at 6 p. m. and adjourned to meet again at 7 o'clock, the hour when the House would meet. As the veto had been sent to the House the Council would have to wait its action. It was the first business taken up, and the proceeding was strikingly devoid of the usual preliminaries when a legisia- tive body is about to run counter to the solemn protests of the executive. Clerk Martin read the veto. There was a pause. The Speaker looked over the House to recognize some member who would make a motion indicating the action to be taken. Not a man broke the ominous macher, Sweeney, Wander, Watson, W eeke, Willmore and Wittenberg—26. Nays—Coudrey, Pauley and Lioyd—3. The lobby was crowded, but there was no Col. Ed Butler, deeply interested in the defeat of the bill, straightened from his leaning posture over the railing, and with a grunt of disgust, left the hall. Then the House took a recess to give the clerk time to prepare the formal message transmitting the veto to the Council. It required but a few minutes, The crowd deserted the House and flowed into the Counc!! chanrber. By mistake the secretary read the veto on the old North and South bill, which was not before the Council, but had come over with the Central Traction veto. He finished one to take up the other. The same proceed. ing followed as in the House. Not a member eyes were turned on him. Smoke curled fron a fragrant Havana cigar that he leis- urely puffed. He was not the least bit ner- vous. His mind had been serenely made up. Elght members had voted against the veto. Ore man was needed. A franchise cheaply estimated to be worth $2,000,000 and 100 mies of the people's streets, were at stake. Should they be presented to a speculating clique? The anewer came quickly, clearly, distinctly, *‘Yes."’ This is the record: Yeas—Brinkmeyver, Carroll, Gast, Gaus, Hagan, Heckel, Kratz, Thuner and Uthoff— . Absent—Mr. Ives. | A few minutes later Uthoff and himself excused for the remainder of the evening. uner, Carroll, Gaus, Kratg and Gast, Who have stood up for the bill through thick and thin, were exuberant. They had scored a great victory against the people, whose Interests they had been elected to protect. The Mayor had used stro language in his unanswerable vetoes on the two North and South bills, but when the third one reached him he seems to have gathered eee FREDERICK G. UTHOFF. fresh strength@nd to have aroused all the cogency of h vocabulary, and he con- cluded with this patriotic appeal to the Assembly: ‘If this “bill should become a law, the City of St. Louis is, for all practical pur- poses granting away at one fell swoop all undisposed of railway franchises, instead of doing so from time to time, as the ap- parent and actual needs of the people may demand and justify. The right to traverse certain of the streets named in the bill may seem at present’of little value or im- portance, Yet, as the population increases and the city continues to grow out toward these points, these rights may become of inestimable value. We should not under- take to tie the hands of posterity too tight- ly. If 20 years ago the city had granted away street railway franchises on as lavish and extensive a scale as is proposed by this bill we would to-day have just grounds: for complaint. If proof is wanting of the rapidly increasing value of these franchises it will be readily found in the fact that this bill offers $250,000 more than was offered but a short time ago for substantially the same franchises, under House bill No. 59. Most likely in another brief period of time the value will again increase at the same ranid rate. “We are ail public servants; the trustees of the people’s property. And while it is true that a power of sale is attached to our trust. let us exercise that power with cau- tion and judgment. If this valuable grant were our own, is it likely that we would convey it to the first customer and at his own figure? Let us deal no more indiffer- ently and nasty. with the city’s affairs than we would with our own.” o— WHAT DID THEY CALL FORP Councilmen and Delegates Throng the Planters’ Corridor. Members of the House of Delegates and of the City Council were conspicuous at the Planters’ Hotel Wednesday. They were there early in the morning with the rush of arrivals from the morning trains and dis- appeared from the rotunda to tthe upper floor, via the stairway and elevator. Their destination was room 434, occupied by Robert M. Snyder, the wizard of the big Kansas City gas deal, and the promoter of the now famous Central Traction bill. ‘The destination of the callers. was not marked by the customary sending up of a calling card: They were welcome without announcement. John Martin, secretary of the House of Delegates, arrayed in a new Scotch Prince Albert, was one of 'the earliest. Hd Mepham and Wittenberg were conspicuous in a crowd of six who called on the promoter. Messrs. King and Lehmann were seen at the hotel. The ‘erstwhile’ promoter, Eu- gene Sweeney, was also there, though he claimed. in his diplomatic way that he ‘‘was just looking around,” and that he knew nothing about the traction bill and could say nothing about it.”’ . tin said that he had just simply called. A Post-Dispatch reporter found Mr. Sny- der in consultation with Mr. Mepham and three other men in the far end of the hall on which his room opens. ‘He left them, but a minute later excused himself, saying he would tell the men to call later. When the reporter left, they were still on the same floor, in another hall. Mr. Snyder .said they had left. Mr. Snyder tugged at his big, black mus- tache as though he meantit. The mustache is a striking part of the promoter. He is eves and black hair. *“*You’re a very busy man?” suggested the reporter. “Yes. I have had callers continually all morning.” “What was the object of the visit of the House of Delegates members and Council- men?’ “Of no ‘particular importance, I assure rou. They called to have a talk with me. hese men championed the measure beeause they knew it was just, and, if passed, a great thing for St. Louls. Some inquired if the bill would be accepted by us, as passed. The time limit for this is 60 days. We will have accepted before the month is out. ‘These calls were in relation to just such matters. The men naturally are interested in it, and we feel friendly to them for im- partial treatment. I could not recall all of the visitors ‘by name. “But the city is getting the best of it. This is the most liberal franchise ever granted. The Mayor’s veto was without foundation and his objections had no weight whatever.’’ Mr. Snyder then proceeded to “tear apart” the veto. “If we should see fit to purchase any road or absorb it,’’ said he, “the bene- fit would be to the people. It would mean an extension of the one-fare transfer sys- tem. It is possible the Fourth street cable will be purchased. It is a losing property now and can be used advantageously in constructing our road. We will have the underground trolley system, in the down- town portion, as far west as Twenty-first street. ‘There is no truth in the report that the Scullin. system is to be made a part of this proposed road. “The Mayor will see that we shal) com. plete the entire road. Arrangements for attual: construction will be begun itmme- diately. I am going to New York to consult with Eastern backers and in a week there will be a_stockholders' meeting at the Planters’ Hotel. “Who are the stockholders? Jules Bache of New York is one of the principals. There are also John Blessing of this city: F. E. Marshall, cashier of the Continental Rank: Louis H. Tebbetts of this city; H. Staple Potter of Boston and myself. I am the president and hold considerable stock. “The tirst move wiil be to increase the capital stock. The underground system is much more exnensive than the overhead wire. The Mayor was right when he ob- jected to overhead trolleys downtown, “Off the other details it ie almost certain that the St. Louis Car Co. will get the contract for the construction of cars.”’ Mr. Snyder will leave Wednesday evening for New York. $3 Cheaper Than Other Lines To New York via B. & O.

The Judge conferred with Prosecuting At- torney Heidorn and was instructed to bring the man to Clayton for examination. With these orders the Justice returned post haste to Ferguson. According to Squire Pollard the quiet folk of Ferguson were much alarmed by the ap- pearance a few days ago of a peculiar old man. His clothing was ragged and worn, and his long unkempt locks, gray beard, wild eyes and wilder actions were enough to send every child in the town into hys- terics. But few people saw the old fellow. None knows him name. He is said to have spent most of his time roaming through the woods and about the fields. Those who claim to know say he only ventured forth at nights, and would make the forest ring with his wild cries and maniacal laughter. He always kept clear of the town, eating what he couid pick up around the farm houses. He seems to have inspired the farmers’ dogs with the same fear that sent the children home panic stricken, for none of the usually belligerent hounds are on record as having ventured an attack. Wednesday morning when James J. Sulll- van, a foreman at the brickkiln, went into his yard he found “the old man of the woods’’ curled in a fence corner. His clothing was saturated with water, showing that he had passed the night in the rain. The wast form shook as if pained. and the fire of a dethroned reason urned brightly in his eyes. Sullivan called to his wife and, despite the violent resist- ance of the old man, he was carried into the house and given a stimulant. Sullivan then went to notify the "Squire and found that official at the train about to start for Clayton. Judge Pollard promptly took the matter in hand. He said he feared the unfortunate man would be dead before assistance could be given. MEACHAM BUILDING LEASED, The Buxton & Skinner Stationery Co. Will Be ths Tenanis. An important real estate lease was closed up’ Wednesday by the Nelson-Barnes Real- ty Co.

Meacham Arms Co., who retired from business last December. The building belongs to the Gerard B. Allen estate.

At Tuesday night’s meeting of the School Board it was decided to adopt manual training for boys and instruction in cook- ing for girls, in an experimental way, without pledging the board to any perma- nent action. The action was embodied in the follow- ing resolutions: Resolved—1, That the Board of Education au- thorize the acceptance of contributions of moneys for the purpose of equipping rooms for woodwork and cooking and for the employment of teachers and the purchase of supplies fer the same whenever such contributions are offered on conditions satisfactory to the President of the board and the Committee on Instruction, and provided that the aid can be accepted with- out pledging the board in any way as to future years. 2. That woodwork for the boys of the sev- enth and eighth grades and cooking and do- mestic economy for the girls of the same grades be introduced into the course of study just so far as adequate provision is made for instruction in those subjects. The school picnic question, including the resolution prohibiting the holding of picnics in parks where beer is sold, was discussed, and the whole matter finally referred to the Committee on Rules. The secretary and treasurer’s report, which was filed, showed that of $1,399,277.60 appropriated for the year end'ng June W, there had been expended $893,740.30 for all purposes, leaving a balance of $505,537.30 to be expended. he credits to the various funds at the same time were: General, $634,527.69; building, sade ge percent $3115.24; permanent insurance, $20,000; total, $682, 418. ANOTHER SIDE TO THE CASE. Mrs. Thatcher Denies the Statements of the Three Cashiers. Mrs. Alberta Thatcher, manager of the Thatcher restaurants, feels aggrieved at the statements made by the three women cash- fers, who recently quit her employ. She says: ‘The young ladies in question did not leave the house on strike, nor were any such in- justices meted out to them as described. Neither since the house opened has it ever been contemplated to offer such insuffictent wag*s as $12 per month to any, even the least, among the employes of the firm. One of the cashiers left on Friday last on account of some contemplated changes and the two cashiers mentioned were dismissed Saturday for good and sufficient reasons relating to the proper management and discipline of the business; reasons In which neither the patrons of the house nor the outside public can have any pa interest or concern whatsoever. The employes of Thatcher's are invariably treated with the greatest kindness and consideration, which is best proved by the length of time they retain their positions and their anxiety to return after having worked elsewhere.’ Central Democratic Club.

WOGE TALTY INTERPOSES. jond of $50,000 Wiil Be Requirea— Affairs of the Association Now - in the Hands of the Cir- cuit Court. and Loan Association grew hot in Judge Walty’'s court Wednesday morning, when ke matter was called up. Judge Talty had issued a writ against the © North End association citing it to come » into court and show cause why its affairs should not be put into the hands of a re- ceiver and wound up for the benefit of its @reditors, Two returns were made, one by "Attorney James A. Kinealy, representing | the old board of directors, and one by J. Hugo .Grimm, representing the new board. Mr. Kinealy’s return admitted all the facts set up by the Supervisor of Building and Loan Associations as grounds ‘for a receivership and acquiesced in the demand for an order to that effect. "That return was made by Vice-President : and James McCallum, as secretary. Mr. Grimm said he had a return to file and ob- | ted to the Kinealy return. ' The court asked him by what right he d ared. He said as attorney for the legal directors of the association. The court said, after some argument and much protest on ~ the part of Judge Russel] and Mr. Kinealy, - that Mr. Grimm might read his return. Mr. Grimm then read his document and ' -efterwards the court allowed it to be filed. _. The return says, among other things, that _ tt is not true, as alleged in the petition of '_ Henry L. Gray, Supervisor, that he has * made a careful examination of the books _ Of the association.. In October, 1897, the re- - turn declared, the relator filed a suit in the ut Court alleging that the Secretary Of the association had appropriated moneys . Of the association, and that the President to allow the Supervisor te sce the books. he suit of the Supervisor further stated that it was unsafe and inexpedient for the > a8sociation to continue in bus'ness. Later - on the return says that the Supervisor filed an amended petition asking the court to dissolve the association-and appoint a re- céiyer. Then the return says: “And 4efendant further states that there- fter, to-wit, on November 4, 1897, relator erein, being relator itn said suit No. 8@44A, filed an amended petition in which he SO out at-léngth the ‘alleged irregularities o defendant in the conduct of its business, to which amended petition reference is coungpa f made to show said allegations, and on said 4th day of November, 1897, defend- filed its answer in said cause, And defendant states that thereafter, to-wit, on wee ember 10, 1897, said relator for some _ —«Feason not disclosed by the record of said - @8tse, dismissed the same, and defendant States that though prior to the dismissal gaid cause the relator had begun the ex- gemation of the books of the defendant, et upon the payment by defendant of a sum of money, exceeding $200, to the tor or his attorneys, said cause was dis- and the examination of the defend- 2 seals ~ accordi to the return, made an assign- > Ment to H.

When the State had finished {ts testi- mony, Wednesday noon, in the trial of Frank Stetson and Charles’ Sheldon, charged with the murder of Patrolman Nicholas Hunt, the court, on motion of Attorney Bishop, representing the defense, directed the jury to bring in a verdict of acquittal, for the reason that the defend- ants were not joined with the real mur- derer, who is supposed to be Wiliam C.

Stetson and Sheldon “will now be tried on the charge of robbery and it is said they will plead guilty and get light sentences to the penitentiary.

Eisele was arrested at the time of the as- sault, but was released on a promise to pay Breitweiser’s doctor bill, the injured man declining to prosecute. At noon Wednesday the Sixth Police Dis- trict reported the arrest of Eisele. Breit- weiser was a bricklayer, 40 years old, and lived at 2117 Obear avenue with his family.

At that time she knew nothing of Sheldon, but when she found that his trouble was in common with that of her boy, she assured him that he would not be deserted, and ever since he has shared with his companion all the comforts that the anxious mother could bestow. Mrs, Stet- s0n returned to Buffalo after the prelim- inary examination, last fall, and came back to St. Louis a few days ago for the trial in the Criminal Court, Both of the defendants look more like bright school boys than the outlaws that the evidence shows them to have been when they entered Peter Heibel’s grocery store with masks on their faces and held him up at the point of pistols. It was a technicality of the law that saved them. The evidence tends to show that the fatal shot was fired by Will- iam C, Thornton, alias St. Paul Tip, whe was associated with Stetson and Sheldon in the robbery of Peter Heibel’s grocery store at 600 South Jefferson avenue, and who escaped and is still at large. It waa while pursuing the robbers that the brave policeman received his death wound. The law presumes that a murder commit- ted in connection with the commission oO! 2 robbery or other crime carries with it im- plied premeditation sufficient to conviction end infliction of the death penalty; and that each member of a fugitive party is eyually gullity, although the murder is actoally com- mitted by only one of that party. ut in order to convict under these circumstances, where the evidence shows only complicity, it must be shown that the defendants were joined in a common effort to escape arrest —that is, they must be together when the murder occurs. It was on this point that Sheldon and Stetson were acquitted of murder... The evi- dence does not show that they were directly with St. Paul Tip when he fired the shot that resulted in the policeman’s death. After the robbery of Heibel’s store, the three rob- bers fled together, but Sheldon was cap- tured by Policeman Hunt and was turned over by him to Policeman Delaney, who rushed to the rescue, while Hunt went on in pursuit of Stetson and St. Paul Tip, the other members of the trio. Stetson was captured shortly after Sheldon, chase after St. Paul Tip was. con : About that time the shot was fired, so the evidence of Policeman Delaney shows. Policeman Delaney was also a target for the robbers, one of the bullets ssing throu h's clotning.

Hill isan experienced campaigner and well qualified to drill and command a large body of troops. There are in St. Louis hun- dreds of business and professional men who were formerly members of the National Juard. From these Col. Hill will recruit his regiment. Maj. O. F. Guthrie is another St. Louis ex- Confederate, who longs for active service after years of peace. He is a giant in stat- ure and a born fighter. The Major prom- ises the novelty of an entire regiment of ex- Confederates. He has applied to Gov. Stephens for authority to form a regiment in Northeast Missouri, ,his former home. The Major commanded a regiment in the late war. He thas already selected Capt. Sebastian as Adjutant and Lieut. B. J. O’Reilly as quartermaster. The war fever has spread to the military classes in the colleges. Many of the scholars at the St. Louis University are anxious to zo to the front. In deference to their wishes Lieut. Johnson, United States Military In- structor at St. Louis University, has made application to the War Department for permission to form a regiment of young men. Activity In the National Guard continues but Col. Batdorf is at a loss to know what may be expected of him. He is beginning to think Adjutant-General Bell is incommun- icado, “T have sent letters to the Adjutant, but have received no reply,” said the Colonel Wednesday. “If, as has been announced, the Governor has ordered the militia to be put on a war footing I have not been noti- fied. As matters now -stand I have men, but little elae. Our guns are obsolete. uniforms are so worn that they would not last through two weeks of active service. Thursday night we will receive recruits. Men who are anxious to go to the front should join the militia in preference to inde- pendent companies, as it has been officially stated that the regular army and the mi- litia will go to the front on the first calli.’’ Capt. Hunicke says the naval reserves are rapidly being gotten inghape. An examina- tion of six candidates for ensign was held at the Armory Tuesday night. The com- petitors were Dexter Tiffany, Jr., F. Calvert, C. J. Cornwell, J. W. Young, R. Laws and A. F, Fay. Of these the two making the highest percentage will be chosea as ensigns. Interest increased at Jefferson Barracks Wednesday when the news reached there that arrangements are being made for the removal of 500 infantry men from Whipple Barracks, Arizona, and ‘Fort Apache to the St. Louis post. They’ will be well under way Thureday and sheald reach Jefferson Barracks sary next week. The news was of special import in view .of the fact that officers at the post think the cavalry there will have to be transferred to make room for the infantry.

Father Tuohy Mrs. Maud Bradley and Mrs. Annie Smith, of middle age and respectable appearance, and who claim to be sisters-in-law, were arrested Tuesday evening at the Famous, charged with shoplifting. Three shirts, two corsets and some under- wear were found in possession of the wom- en, said to have been stolen from Penny & Gentles and the Famous, The women have no police records, hut the detectives claim they have a good case against them, and that under the “sweat- ing’’ process they confessed.

Family Were Awny for a Few Hours, and the Thieves Gained Entrance by Skeleton Keys. The house of George Nagle, 2019 Lynch Street. was entered by burglars Tuesday afternoon at 4 o’clock and robbed of $150 worth of goods. Nagle is pried and has five children. He is empl@ved at the Anheuser-Busch brewery, and yesterday afternoon was at work as usual. Four of his children were at school, and Mrs, Nagle left her house about 3 o’clock with her youngest child, a baby, to attend the funeral of a Mts. Hold- erle, on Salina street. The burglars broke into the house at the auspicious time when nobody was at home. They went through every trunk, drawer and closet and took everything of value that they Among the valuables they secured were five rings, a watch and $12 in money. They overlooked a large roll-of bills that lay in the corner of a bureau drawer. At 4 o'clock Minnie, the little 10-year-old daughter of Mr. Nagle, returned to her home from school. As she entered the door *he heard footsteps in the rear of the house. As she knew that her mother and the other children were out she was go badly fright- ened by the noise that she could neither move nor cry out. She etood perfectly still for several minutes and heard the robbers as they ransacked every room. Mrs. Nagie returned in a few minutes and Minnie told her what she had heard. Mrs. Nagle secured her husband's pistol and with it in one hand and the baby in the other, ehe began to search for the intruders. entered the kitchen just in time to see them escape from a rear door, run through an alley and scale a high fenee. In the excite- ment, she forgot to use the pistol, although she had an excellent view of the burglars. She could only see their backs, and she does not think she will be able to identify them if they are captured. A family by the name of Secnipt live in the second story of the Nagle home. They are out of town visiting, and it cannot be ascer- tained whether the burglars entered their home, also, but the police believe it was also ransacked. It is presumed an entrance was made with skeleton keys, OUR MAKE of Spring Suits and Spring Overcoats, ait made in jt. Luuis. Owing to che rise in the price ot wool, and conseyuentiy of woven fabrics, there has Deen much juggiuug this year by some Manulacturecs of men’s-wear woolen fabrics. it is es- sentiaily important, therefore, that you should have ali the guarantee and protection possibile with the suit you are buying this spring; that it is what it shouid be.

EGGERS CALLED DOWN HARD, Judge Zachritz Sharply Rebukes Him and Orders a Prisoner Acquifted. Daniel O'Connell, alias O’Brien, on trial for grand larceny, went scot free in Judge Zachritz’s Court Tuesday, because Circuit Attorney Eggers persisted in asking wit- nesses questions which the court deemed improper, O'Connell was jointly tndicted with Thomas Lee, Jr., for horse stealing. Lee Pleaded guilty and was sent to the peni- tentiary. O'Connell was tried and the jury disagreed. Monday he was again placed on trial. Mr. Eggers asked a witness Monday wnat had become of Lee, and was rebuked by Judge Zachritz for an attempt to prejudice the jury by bringing matter. before them not in the record. Then he asked the pris- oner on the witness stand Tuesday whether he had not stolen a watch on a previous occasion. Judge Zachritz stopped the Circuit Attor- ney, sharply rebuked him, and instructed the jury to acquit, on the ground that he had been denied a fair trial by the improper questions put by Mr. Eggers, which tended to prejudice the jury. Mr. Eggers, as the Judge left the bench, g@aid: ‘I wish I could appeal the case." “I wish so, too,”’ retorted Judge Zach- ritz. “If the Supreme Court had a chance to pass on this case, and your questtions, you would get the worst rebuke ever admin- istered (0 a prosecuting attorney here or elsewhere."

CAME IN A MISSIVE FROM HOME. While in the City Hospital Suffering From a Fall She Receives a Letter and Kisses the Writing. Ada Clark wtfll not return to her home, near Lebanon, Mo., next Saturday, as she expected. Instead she will remain at the City Hospital, where for three months she has been a patient. Ada has the measles and the disease reached her in a peculiar way. | Ada is 20 years old and is more than ordi- narily preity. A year and a half ago she came to the city from her country home and obtained a place as saleswoman in one of the big downtown stores, she workea long and faithfu.ly and the first of the year she determined to visit her oid home, she obtained leave of absence ana went to Union Station. She was Waiking on the Midway when she slipped on a piece of banana peel and fell.

She wrote her mother and told her she would start next Saturday. Miss Clark received a letter in return and was told how gladiy she wou.d be wWel- comed. In the letter she was incidentally informed that her little brother and sister had the measlés, but the cases were light. ] so delighted that she kissed . over and over again. A day or azo symptoms of measies developed. ‘ ) Dr. Sutter was astonished and could not see how his patient could have contracted the disease. Then Ada told him of the letter and the matter was explained. ~ REVOLUTIONARY PICTURES. she Interesting Collection Which Delight- ed Many Lovers of Art and Patriots. A large number of artists, lovers of art, and descendants of revolutionary stock at- tended the exhibition of the Scribner col- lection of Revolutionary pictures at the Museum of Fine Arts Tuesday night. The collection, said to be the most com- plete in existence, is intensely interest.ng, and is calculated to send a thrill of paea- triotism through the spectator. The work of F. C. Yohn, the youngest and least known of all the artists whose pictures were displayed, attracted the most atten- tion. Side by side, w.th kindred subjects by artists of fame, their work suffered by comparison, in the eyes Of those not preju- diced by the reputation of the artist, with that of the youth, 22 years old. Every picture of Mr. Yohn's is alive. Action is his forte. His faces, in repose, are not beyond criticism, but in the clasn of battle, in the advance, the retreat, the charge, faces and figures are alike boid, striking and full of life. 7 The young artist has caugat the true spir- it of his supjects, too. His revolutionary warriors in the “Fight at the Bridge” at Concord, in “‘The Capture of the Fort al Ticonderoga,” ‘“‘Surrender of Burgoyne, “Rattle of Bradywine,”’ “Clark’s Advance Against Hamilton’’ and others, show tne men of 1776 as they were—not all arranged in the familiar Continental. uniforms or long-skirted coats of the period, but m.n- gied with the grizzled bearded hunter and trapper, the farmer, the mechanic; not in rigid line of battle, but fighting as they could from various vantage grounds, their faces aglow with the fires of patriotism and the righteousness of their cause. One of the most striking of the artist's petures is “Prescott on the Parapet at Bunker Hi 1.” The present tour of this co lection will give Mr. Yohn the reputation his work enticles him to. Otf.er artists whose works are exhibited are: Howard Pyle, B. West Clinedinst, Carlton T. Chapman, E. C. Peixotto, Harry Fenn, W. Appleton Clark, H, A. Ogden, W. Ditzler and F. Luis Mora, all of whom have established reputations, Not all of the pictures are of war. There are peaceful subjects of historic interest. There is Jefferson reading the Declaration of Independence by the light of two tallow candles. the house where the first American flag was made, Independence Hall, the ola | North Church, the bridge at Coneord as it | ie to day, portraits of Adams, Jefferson and | Hancock, and in all 10) subjects, the whole | forming a collection which will well repay ‘a visit. The view wiil continue all of this week, _ RINGLING BROS.’ CIRCUS. — ae - —-~ Delighted Audiences Nightly Crowd the Coliseum Building. The Coliseum is baviag a splendid run of audiences in attendance on Ringling Bros.’ Circus. This is the first opportunity ever afforded St. Louisans of seeing a cir- cus in a@ metropolitan way, and they are + charmed with the repose, the nase | and the perfect safety of the entertainment. The list of attractions !s unusuaily strong, especially the aerial feats, the wire waiking and the riding. Little folks are delighted with the tiny bicycle riders, the Miller family and the Foy family. Old ‘folks laygh until their sides ache over the clown band of musical mimics, It should not be forgotten also that the fin- est menagerie ever seen in St. Louis is with the Ringling Bros.’ show. DR.

SUICIDE OF TIM M’NAMARA. Father of the Notorious ‘Mickey Mack”? Swallows Strychnine. Timothy McNamara, father of the noto- rious “Mickey Mack,’’ committed suicide Tuesday afternoon by taking strychnine at his home, 1408 North Tenth street. The old man had been arrested for stealing a saddle from Joseph Henningmeier, a ne‘gh- bor, and it is said he became despondent at his inability to raise $10 to pay his law- yer. After being out several hours the old man returned home. He remarked to his wife that ‘‘a higher Judge would pass on his case.”’ Shortly afterwards she found him unconscious. Mrs. McNamara ran for a doctor, but says the one she called on re- fused to go unless his fee was first paid. An ambulance was sent for, but the unhap- py man died on the way to the City Dis- pensary. Railroad employes all believe in Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup, the old standby. Juvenile Minstrels. Fager for the best seats quite a crowd gathered at the box office of the Fourteenth Street Theater to get cho‘ce of location for the juvenile minstrels, All the lower boxes are sold except two. The matinee wil) be- gin at 2 o’clock next Saturday, under the direction of Jacob Mahler, who as a trainer of children stands easily alone in St. Lou-s, The fact that he has charge of the en- tertainment is sufficient guarantee of its success. The affair is given for the Fresh Air Mission. Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing Syrup is an unexcell d medicine for children while teething. Funeral of Peter Blow.

La Barge Married to Miss Jessie G. Womack and the Se- cret Kept Two Days. With the lifting of the Lenten pall came the culmination of a pretty romance which is being volubly discussed by members of exclusive society circles in Northwest St. Louis. It has just become known among thelr many friends that Albert G. La Barge and Miss Jessie G. Womack were the central figures in an Easter Sunday wedding. They concealed their plan and its accom- plisnment so well that not even their par- ents knew of them. Until they confessed they had only two confidants, the brother of the groom and a young lady, a friend of the bride. Albert G. La Barge is a grandson of La Barge and a son of A. Barge of ihe Boat- men’s Bank. paren&® reside at 3936 Maffitt avenue. The bride’s mother lves at 40'S North Market street. Both are members of the choir of St, Mattrew’s Catholic Church, Mr. La Barge singing bass and his new found bride filling the double roll of organist and soprano, At the high mass in the pretty church Easter morning, the inspiring “Gloria in Iexcelsis’’ was sung with a burst of joyous- ncss that caused wonder in the congrega- tion. High above all rose the triumphant voices of the soprano and the basso. Of course the reverent ones in the pews did not know there was a marriage license in the basso’s pocket, and that the singers’ harmony of soul was refiected in their ren- dering of the glorious Easter song. They did not know that on the previous afternoon the sing«rs had met and accom- panied each other to the Courthouse. The final march as the congregation filed out was spirited with just a suspicion of tremulousné¢ss, Four of the singers lingered in the choir loft. When the candles on the altar were ex- tinguished and only clouds of incense re- mained in the church the four descended and entered the gacristy, where Rev. Father Shields was laying aside the vestments he had worn at mass. Miss Womack was leaning on Mr. La Barge’s arm. Behind them were Joseph La Barge and Miss Daisy Ball. The license was shown and the ceremony performed in the presence of the two wit- nesses. The groom’s father {fs still a trifle testy, but his mother has forgiven all. The bride is at her mother’s house and the groom at the home of his parents. Mrs. La Barge is a handsome brunette, tall and stately and of elegant manners. Mr. La Barge is well and favorably known in the West End. BABY'S PUG DOG KILLED. What a Scullin Street Car Did to Emma Hite’s Playmate. Joseph One of John Scullin’s big, heavy electric cars has run over little Emma Hite’s pug dog and thereby caused anguish in a baby heart. 2mma is a pretty, golden-haired tot of 4. Her parents live in Clifton Heights, at the terminus of the Union Depot lines Tower Grove division. The pug dog was the light of Emma’s life. There are no other little girls and boys at her house and Tootsey, the pug, was her only playmate. He wasn’t pretty to look at, except in the baby eyes of Emma, but six weeks of close acquaintance had strengthened the attach- ment between the cherub and the pug. Tootsey’s only fault was a tendency to go to sieep. He had the somnoience pe- culiar to many human beings of his build. Tuesday afternoon the. spirit of rest came over Tootsey and he did a fooksh thing. He toddied under a car and went to sleep on the rail. When the car started back to town Tootsey’s life went out. Lit- tle Emma was inconsolable. Convulsions seemed imminent, when Mr. Hite bethought himself of a ruse. He made a hurried trip to town and bought another pug dog. The fancier did not have Tootsey’s size in stock and the substitute was iarger. Mr. Hite smuggied the new pug through the back door. He meant to tell Emma it was a new pug, but when the tot saw it she clapped her hands gieefully and said: “Bad old 'teet car didn’t hurt my Tootsey *tali. t dest made him bigger.’’ Emma is still happy in her tgnorance, but. when closer acquaintance shows her that the new pug is a rank counterfeit, anguish wi.l again take the place of joy in a baby heart.

AN EASTER ROMAKCE.'MURDER OR SUICIDE ——_ JOHN SANDERS OF COLUMBIA, ILL., FOUND DEAD IN HIS ENGINE ROOM. NO ONE SAW THE KILLING. Shot in the Back of the Head—The Wound May Have Been Self- Inflicted or Otherwise. John Sanders, engineer of the electric light works at Columbia, Ill, committed suicide or was murdered early Tuesday morning. He was found with a gaping hole in the back of his head and a pistol near his hand, but he had feared assassination, and it is believed by many that he was mur- dered. Sanders had become mentally deranged. He labored under the hallucination that enemies were plotting against his life and intended to blow up the boilers of the plant. This idea took such a firm hold on his mind that he lived constantly in mortal dread of being bluwn to pieces. He talked so much about the plot that the City Marshall of the place was finally induced to make a thorough examination of the premises. He found no infernal ma- chines or explosives and nobody in hiding. His report. however, did not set Sanders’ mind at rest. His terror grew from day to day and became pittable. Every time he went to his work he bade his wife and child an affecting good-by, never expecting to see them again. Monday night when he went to work he was more apprehensive than usual. About 38 o'clock in the morning the fireman was attending to the boilers, when he heard a shot in the engine room. He rushed in and found Landers lying in a pool of blood. Death had been instantaneous. A revolver lay near by, and the wound was in the back of Landers’ head. A great many people in the town now think that Landers’ apprehensions were well founded and that he was murdered in- etead of committing suicide. The location of the wound does not pre- clude the idea of Sanders Shooting himself but it is considered improbable that ha would have placed the weapon to the back of his head, When the deed was committed a bal! was in progress in the village and intense excitement was created. Sanders was about 45 years old, MORE FRANCHISE GIVING. Present to the Terminal Railroad— The Charter Amendments. The charter amendments were read for the first time in the House of Delegates Tuesday night.

The Council- presented the Terminal Ralil- road Association with a valuable gift last night when it passed the ordinance granting a franchise for a switch from the Sixteenth street yards across Clark avenue and over Moore street, within a short distance of Market street. The Railroad Committee had reported ad. versély on the bi.l and Mr. Horton made a strong speech against it, but the Council was in a franchise-giving mood and all such gifts were in order.
