Though ex-officio a member of the board he has heretofore taken no active part in its deliberations. Prior to the beginnig of the session at o’clock, the Democratic members of the board conferred with Dr. Faulkner. Shortly after the executive meeting was called to order a messenger was sent out of the board room. Te returned a few minutes later with a copy of the revised statutes of Missouri.

Campbell, prior to the board meeting, said to the Post-Dispatch: “T have not resigrned.’’ “Can you indicate what your course will be?’’ “T prefer not to discuss it.’ “Would you accept a captaincy if it were offered you?” “T cannot say until the offer is made.”’ Chief Campbell was commissioned for a term of four years by the board which was appointed immediately after the new police law went into effect, in August, 1899. That board, however, was never confirmed by the Senate, and its tenure of office expired with the appointment and confirmation of the new board Capt. Kiely accepted his present position after serving as assistant chief, while Chief Harrigan once took a lower position in the department after having served as its head. In case a new assistant chief of police is apointed it is expected that Chief Pickel will also be reduced to captain.

The future of Chief Campbell, it was stated, had not been determined. Ite might be reduced to the rank of captain, or, if he should show an unwillingness to accept this, charges could be preferred against him and he might be removed. This latter contingency, it was stated, might postpone the appointment of the new chief. It was further stated that neither Capt. George McNamee nor Capt. Lorenz meenner would be appointed assistant cniet. It was also positively stated that Detec- tive Al Guion would not succeed Assistant Chief of Detectives Smith, who is slated for ee in uniform, probably as lieutenant place of the man who will succeed to the ere vee .

Johnson and*E. C. Rowse of the St. Louis Republican Club, representing George W. Parker and the candidates on the St. Nicholas Hotel slate, urwed the elec- tion commissioners to place the names of Mr. Parker and the other slate candidates upon taining the names of Judge Zachritz and the scattering candidates for city offices. Judge Zachritz was present with Attor- news Chester H. Krum and T. T. Fauntle- roy, who argued in his behalf that the names of all candidates should be placed upon one ticket. Mr. Johnson declared that the St. Nich- olas Hotel ticket represented the wishes of the accredited representatives of the Re- publican party, and that the candidates composing it should be distinguished from those who represented, as he believed. no more than their own personal aspirations. He did not believe that anyone would have difficulty in remembering that Mr. Parker was the caucus candidate, but he declared that confusion regarding the candidates for other offices would certainly result un- less his plan should be adopted. Judge Zachritz’s attorneys said the can- didates had filed their declarations individ- ually, and that all should be placed on the same footing by the board, and asserted that the law does not recognize caucuses of a few “self-constituted” party repre- sentatives. They objected to any arrange- ment of the ticket which would give an apparent regularity to a part of the ticket and make the others appear as independent candidates, Besides Judge Zachritz, most of the can- didates not included in the slate were pres- ent, and they indorsed the remarks of At- torneys Krum and Fauntleroy. It was announced at Tuesday’s meetin of the board that a Hst of judges an clerks satisfactory to both sides had been arranged, and that the choice of polling places had been made by the representa- tives of the two factions alternately. At the afternoon session the board de- cided to place the names of all Republican candidates for nomination on one ballot. This was regarded as favorable to Zachritz, —— of the candidates to request a joint ticket, POLITICAL NOTES. Robert E.

Wallace C. Capen-was granted -a divorce from Florence Lucas Capen at 11 o'clock Tuesday morning by Judge ‘Fisher. The stated ground was indignities. None of the parties to the suit were pres- ent when the decision was handed down. The testimony in the case was heard by Judge Fisher Monday. It was all pre- sented in the plaitntiff’s behalf. Atttorney W. H. Clopton, who was supposed to be looking after Mrs. Capen’s interests, was present, but took no part in the proceed- ings. The case went by default. Wallace C. Capen, plaintiff in the suit against Mrs. Florence Lucas Capen-for di- voree, teok the stand in Judge Tisher's court at 5:10 o’clock Monday afternoon. His testimony did not consume more than 10 minutes. He told about his wife's al- leged attempts at suicide, saying that she once soaked matches in water and tried to drink the water and that when he pre- vented her she tried to cut the arteries, in her wrists. He also described an incident in Faust’s restaurant when, he avers, she flirted witn Julius Boyer and also an incident in the Planters’ Hotel cafe when, he alleges, sie struck him with an oyster fork. When recalled to the stand by his attor- ney, Morton Jourdan, he stated that the attempts to commit suicide were made on Dec. 5 at about 10:30 o'clock in the evening. Mr. Capen also told of his wife's failure to write to him while spending her vacation at Block Island, R. I. Other witnesses were Mr. FLORENCE LUCAS CAPEN.

Mrs. Florence Lucas Capen, from whom Wallace Capen secured a divorce, has been declared by many the most beautiful wom- an in St. Louis. She is about 25 years of age, stutely, a rich oliye complexion, lus- trous large dark eves and a suverb fig‘ire. She is the second daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Robert J. Lucas of Normandy, St. Louis County. Her family is one of the oldest in St. Louis, and has been considered one of the wealthiest. Wallace Capen is one of the three sons of the late Geerge D. Capen, who was a wealthy insurance man &And was president of the Lindell Railway Ge. The Capen fam- ily have a magnificent Wome in Westmore- land place. The marriage of the couple on Sept. 1 1897, was sudden. They went to the Record- er’s office without notifying their families and were married by a justice. For a few years prior to that, Florence Lucas had been a reigning belle in exclu- sive circles. She was selected as Queen of the Veiled Prophet's ball in 1895. She pre- ferred a yeuth named Guerin, whose home was in Columbus, O., to the others, how- ever, and their engagement was announced. The wedding date was set and he came to St. Louis. He had been here but a few hours when he learned that his fiance? and her family had declared the wedding off. No positive explanation was given at the time, but the impression was allowed to obtain that the reason the engagement was can celled was because of certain inquiries the groom-to-be had made concerning the finan- cial standing of his prospective father-in- law. After this incident, Miss Lucas went trav- eling with relatives in California. Shortly | i Capen's bro- *? . after her return home her marriage to Mr. Capen occurred. They resided the greater portion of their time at 7 Euclid avenue. THIS IS NOT MR. ROOSEVEL 4y = Who —?—-?-o—e—-o—_ o_o 90-0 _o_o____o_#—__0—_>_0— > —_ 0 _9—__0—_0_ 9 —_0 Republican Candidate John A.

Matlack said that it was the impression of the Kaskaskia posers that the box had been there about three weeks and that the man whose body it contained had been murdered. M’DOWELL AGAIN IDENTIFIED. Salesman Benson Recognizes Him as a Former Visitor. Louis ©. McDowell was again identi- fied Monday morning. by.Charles. W. Ben- son, a salesman for Gill’s Jewelry Co., at Seventh.and Olive streets.

Benson will appear before the grana- jury and add his testimony to that of Messrs. Walsh, Aehle and Barnett, all of whom have identified McDowell. NLS TO REST BY MEN OF SCIENCE Lh Otto | _patient in a colored hospital in Charleston. | Not many years ago this tribe of which Mr. Matlack said the discovery was made | Kassongo is the prince was Gomposed of hu- 'man flesh-eaters, but this custom has been abandoned, although Prince ‘Kassongo can boast of the fect | | Scendant of a cannibal race. The prince, | who is only 17 years of age, was brought to 'this country two years ago by Rev. 8S. P. | Verner, an African missionary, and lived during that time in the wilds of Oconee County. Recently, however, he suffered so much with rheumatism that it was decid- ed to bring him to Charleston for treat- ment. To all appearances the ordinary southern negro. Kassongo is now much interested in affairs at his home. The present ruler is more than 60 years of age and is dissipated. The ruler’s life has been such that his days will hardly be long, and when his death is announced Kassongo ‘will have to. return to Africa to become ruler of his tribe. Rev. Verner has taken a deep interest in the young African and will have him cured here, so tnat later on he can take up the responsibilities of life which will fall on his shoulders through the death of the ruler of Rossuna, who is now on the throne.

These include two pouches from the United States military station in China, also two bags of registered mail. When ‘the registered bags were delivered it was found that they had been ripped open with a knife and all their contents stolen.

MURPHY ONCE ENJOYED HIs LATE, RICH DINNERS. Acute Stomach Trouble Left the Eso- phagus in Such Condition as to Make Deglutition Impossible. NEW YORK, Feb. 26.—Colonel Michael C. Murphy, the new commissioner of police for New York, is one of the most remark- able men in the world For twelve years he has never tasted food or drink, and there is no prospect of his doing so for the rest of his natural life. All the nourishment he takes is adminis- te through a. silver tube inserted just above the stomach, into the esopnagus, or natural canal, by which nutritive substan- ces afe carried into the stomach, For Commissioner Murphy the delights of gustatory sensation. and the achieve- ments of gastronomical art are mere shad- owy memories of an irrevocable past. Twelve years ago Mr. Murphy was a pros- perous politician, who liked his meals to come regularly in quantity and quality. He was a hearty eater, and his weight oscil- lated close to the 240-pound mark. He was suddenly attacked with an acute stomach trouble and ulcers broke out on the lining of the esophagus. When the ulcers healed it was found that the cicatrix of one of them caused a stricture of the canal by which the act of deglutition was made impossible. Kminent New York physicians were called in. At first they directed their efforts to preventing their patient from dying by im- mediate starvation. They nourished him by injections of meat extracts into the in- testines and at the same time tried how in- activity would act on the stomach. For two months Mr. Murphy gave his beloved digester a rest. The organ was washed out writ day by means of a stomach pump. While this process was going on the colone! was safely guarded from the sight of food, #0 as not to add mental torture to his physi- cal sufferings. hen the satiny coats of the stomach were restored to their normally healthy Btate the doctors decided that they would try to furnish their paeat with an artificial mouth. To that end they made a smal! in- cision into the breast above the stomach line penetrating the esophagus. Through this they inserted a silver tube and fed Mr. Murphy by pouring food in liquid form into the esophagus by means of a funnel ap- Mied to the free end of the tube. When e began to take his meals tn this way Mr. Murphy had run down from his 240 pounds of well-fed body to 60 pounds of “as uninter- @#ting skin and bone as you'd find in a dime a to. use his own words. © new process of nourishment the patient added 30 pounds to his ay ver ve has never risen above that amount of avoirdupois. Students of psychology who have examined him point to this fact to prove that the mind has a great influence ices ee functions and that the ce Zustation faci : ‘es of allmentation facilitate the process thers say that it is because artificial methods of preparing the food can eet take the place of salivation and mastication pecullar to the mouth. opinions is the true ons not regained his former rotundity. enjoy his cigars, but that is about all the use he has for his powers of the palate came ermal System of life has not pre- . e commissione ) : we active part in the fee ef aw, taking an affairs of the town.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. JEFFERSON CITY, Feb. 26.—The house substitute franchise bill passed the lower branch of the assembly by unanimous vote at noon today.

HAVANA, Feb. 26.—The Cubans regard their constitution as in effect since the dav it was signed. The convention before the end of the week will promulgate the elec-| tion law.

FOUND WEALTH IN ISLANDS. Seldiers Returning from the Philip- pines Bring Small Fortunes. Members of the Thirty-seventh Infantry, just back from the Philippines, made war sérvice in the islands pay. Large numbers of them passed through St. Louis bound for their homes Monday and Tuesday. With few exceptions they had from $500 to $3000 in cash apiece, and one man, said to be the richest in the regiment, had $3300. None of them received less than $500 from | the government up to the time of their dis- | charge, and a good many received as much as $900, due them for service and in travel | pay. the man who had $3300 made his money gumbling.

Most of the other men who had sums with them had been fortunate gam- blers. That is the way they made their money, according to their own statements. Those who have no money at ali, the sol- diers say, lost their earnings in play or else were high livers and couldn't save any to gamble with. Many of them, it was large stated, hand money when they reached San Francisco, but lost it there through contact with contidence men. The Thirty-seventh Infantry arrived in San Francisco on Feb. 10. The men received their discharges on Feb. 20. All of them were members of volunteer regiments that were discharged in the Philippines. “he Thirty-seventh was made up there entirely of men who did not want to come home The men have been constantly in service for nearly three years.

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn., Feb. 26.—Turney Camp, Confederate Veterans of Winchester renn., has adopted another resolution regard to inviting the President to the Memphis reunion.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.—Admiral Samp- son's friends unhesitatingly admit that he made the worst blunder possible in turning down Gunner Charles Morgan, who aspires to be a commissioned officer in the navy, simply because he may not possess society polish. Schley’s friends and .others are jubilant and say the caliber of the Man can now fully be appreciated, While Secretary Long will not comment on the action of Admiral Sampson, he showed h:.s disapproval of the admiral's rec- ommendation by prompt:y indorsing the ap- plication of the gunner. Department officers decline to talk for publication, but their disgust at Sampson s action is manifest in what they say pri- vately. Sampson's father was a poor laborer at Palmyra, N. Y., an immigrant who was a day man putting in gardens, cleaning yards, doing anything honest to earn a dollar. Sampson himself worked in the streets in that village when he was a young man. It is intimated that Sampson's friends may endeavor to catch Morgan on the age limit or in other ways, as they hold him responsible for the Sampson letter becom- ing public. GUNNER MORGAN’S STANDING. He Is a Member of a Swell Club and Has Strong Friends. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEWPORT, Feb. 26.—Gunner Morgan came from Erie, Pa. He rose from the ranks as a naval apprentice to the $1800 po- sition he holds now as a gunner. He has always been a well-dressed man and one who was known everywRere for his mod- esty and good manners. #He is the special protege of Rhode oy delegation in Congress, he being the boon social com- panion of Congressman Bull and a member of his pet Newport resort, the Lawrence (“jub, which prominent New York and New- port cottagers are members of. He is also a great friend of the Herres- hoffs, the Bristol boatbuilders, several of the members of that family recently being his guests. Morgan has been one of the most efficient officers at the torpedo station for years, particularly on matters connected with the torpedo fiotilla.

Bobb, wife of Charles | Bobb, defendant in the famous litigation of | Bobb against Bobb, which has been in the | courts for 32 years, died at her home at| 3531 Lawton avenue Tuesday, after an ill-| ness that first manifested itself three years ago.

In Baltimore street railway companies not being required to heat their-cars in cold weather, do not supply warmth except in a few stiburban cars, , The cars on the short runs are usually packed, and one of the managers makes the point that it is not necessary to put stoves in because they are sufficiently heated by radiation from the bodies of passengers. Why. did nobody in St. Louis think of this? Some of our cats are cold as barns in cold weather. The reason is that there are too few passengers in them. The remedy is to take off more cars and stuff more warm.bodies into those which “are left. . Plenty of warm bodies! Instead of grumbling because the cars are crowded the passenger should wish for more warm - bodies. Coal costs money, and the saving in wages effected by tak- ing off more cars will no doubt pay for printing several days’ ore warm bodies! a & & = supply of transfer slips which do not transfer, The new American wool-clip has opened in Phenix, Ariz., on a basis of 0 and 11 cents to the grower, against 1¥and 16 cents last year.

In Rear Admiral Sampson's opinion warrant officers in the tavy should not be promoted to the higher grades because they are not gentlemen. “They are recruited from a class of mien who have not had the social advantages that are a requis- ite for commissioned officers,’ says the Rear Admiral. The rule is flatly against common sense and American ideas. The warrant officers are recruited from the “common people just as are the commissioned officers. Their instincts are no better or worse than those of th: Annapolis graduate. If 0, they should have equal opportunity with the graduates to roe in the. service. If Admiral Sampson's views had prevailed in the army a large proportion of high officers would have been excluded. Lieutenant-General Miles had no social standing to boast of when he entered the army in 1861. And what of Chaffee and Lawton? Did any one ever hear that these men fell short of the measure of a gentleman?

Besides the gas in every ton of soft coal there are 100 pounds of tar and 20 pounds of ammonia. When the smoke is allowed to pour out into the air in a dense, black cloud, the greater part of this tar is lost. Of course the ammonia is a$ good as wasted, as the gas in coal which makes heat is car- bonated hydrogen, not ammonia. _ How to get the most out of soft coal is shown by the work- ings of a coke plant, in connection with steel mills, at Ensley, ——_ «Ala. In making the coke all the volatile parts of the coal are saved. The tar and ammonia are washed out from the inflam- mable gas produced in the coke furnace. The hydrogen then ‘Passes on to supply heat to produce the steel, while the tar is made into pitch and creosote and the sulphate of ammonia be- comes a valuable byproduct, profitably sold for refrigerating purposes. Perhaps the best we can do as yet, in the case of ordinary Manufacturing plants, is to prevent waste by a more thorough combustion of the coal, by the use of smoke preven- tion appliances ¢~ more perfect stoking.

According to that wonderful, though rather indefinite, thing called the British Constitution, the King is supposed to act only through his ministers, who are responsible to the nation, but Edward wants to do things himself. The King, as Carlyle has taught us, is “the man who can,” not necessarily the man in royal robes, sitting on a throne. Such men are not kings unless “they can.” Louis XVI, pos- sessed with all the magic of royal descent and invested with all the pomp of majesty, was not a king. But that Corsican adventurer in a gray overcoat—he was a king. He said “I can,’ and made good his word. : Can Edward VII say “I can,” hedged about as he is with so-called constitutional restriction? If he says “I can” and then shows that “he can’t,” something will happen to him. The English people are not likely to kill another king who can't, but they may send him on his travels. - = — _-- = ‘Congressman Sheppard of Texas has friends in St. Louis whose intluence may be potent to prevent his further blocking of the World's Fair bill in-the House.

In Sunday's Post-Dispatch President McMath of the Board of Public Improvements urged the necessity of doing away with most of the grade crossings in St. Louis as one of the preparations for the World’s Fair: Mr. McMath found it neces- sary to adopt this method of bringing the subject before the public, because of the neglect of the mayor to submit the fte- }port of the Board of Public Improvements to the Municipal Assembly, though this need of the city was one of the topics discussed in that report. Progressive St. Louisans generally wiil agree that nothing is of more importance than the abolition of grade crossings if St. Louis is to take her place with the cities of the first rank in modern structure. Chicago has compelled the 22 railways entering its limits to raise or lower their tracks so that the inconvenient and dangerous grade crossings might be abolished. : Every year a large number of persons are killed or maimed. at grade crossings. and this condition naturally gets worse with the growth of the city and the extension of street railway traffic. As President McMath points out, the state of things will be intolerable during the World’s Fair if the grade cross- ings are left to impede traffic and endanger human life. The railways are amply able to bear part or all of the cost of doing away with grade crossings. It may not be necessary or practicable at this time to pass a sweeping law, but,the state Legislature should make such provision as will abolish these crossings in the congested parts of the city and at all points where increased travel and traffic is likely to cause great in- convenience and loss of life. = = a ae If the managers of the St. Louis Fair want to make the biggest hit on record let them secure Kansas as one of the features of their midway,” says the Chicago Times-Herald, But Kansas has much to exhibit other than Midway attrac- tions.

DOLTON. Observance of Washington’s Birthday. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Another anniversary of the ‘Father of His Country” has come and gone, and again the law has been slighted and no gen- eral holiday observed, all of which is doubt- less gratifying to the imperialists. The ap- parent growth of imperialistic sentiment makes it all the more necessary to cele- brate this anniversary in the most thorough and enthusiastic manner, in order to keep alive the spirit of Hberty and the love of true democratic institutions and principles. Of course, we must give due considera- tion to the suffering that would be caused by the industrial army stopping work on this one day, especially to the large and al M. a well-filled. out, starched smock, and with a bright gun under his arm. The villagers all ran to their @oors and looked after him until he disappeared at the end of the main street.

Bonchamps had worked the spaniel, having only the week before bought him from a dog breeder of Bessous; after trying him in the wood, and in the open and, not without much hesita- tion, he had waid 400 francs for him, so ex- ceptional a price, that he did not dare to own it to Mme. Bonchamps. As the notary passed the last house of the village street, a peasant, leaning over the gate of a hedge, which enclosed a vegetable garden, greeted him in a knowing manner and raised his hat: “Good morning, sir, nice lot o' game; you ‘ll ha’ good sport, sir.” The notary seemed disagreeably 6ur- prised, he looked at him askance and re- plied coldly: “Good day.’ It was evident that this man, who was known as Pierre Jacclard, had settled him- self there on purpose to speak to him. A whole series of recent events passed through M. Bonchamp’s mind. Six months hefore he had come upon Jacclard in Halines wood, swinging two hares in his left hand and carrying a load- ed gun under his right arm. The offence was a flagrant one. Jacclard had at once thrown himself at the notary’s feet and declared that it was the last time he would poach. But a sportsman never for- gives the man who steals his game. The case was tried. Jacclard was condemned. On account of former offences he received a sentence of three months’ imprisonment. This punishment had exasperated him. “IT forgive the keepers if they catch us,” said he, “for they gain their livelihood look- ing after game, and it is their business to track poachers; but, if the sportsmen them- selves take part in the chase, it is not fair.”’ For Jacclard, poaching was a struggle; a struggle of cunning, ot malice and of pru- dence, loyally entered into between the con- stable who tracks and the thief who hides; a struggle like that between the sportsman and his game, the constable being armed with the law, as the sportsman is armed with his gun. When Jacclard left the court, he shouted out to M. Bonchamps, who watched him removed: “I'll ha’ you yet, sir.” This was said in such a calm, clear, de- cided voice, with the intonation of one quite sure of his prey, that M. Bonchamps long remembered the threat. He was on his guard for several months, then time having elapsed without apything happening, he forget the matter. On this particular morning when the man greeted him, it was with the same confident quiet sneer which the notary had perceived on the day of the sentence. The poacher was known to be a fellow who could, on occasion, play anyone a bad turn. He lived, no one exactly knew how, with his father and mother, both over 70. Old Jacclard was paralyzed and could not bend his back to sit down. He slept a mattress on the floor and his wife on helped him up in the morning by planting his feet ainst the wall, as a heavy ladder is raised. He went out, stiff at a post, lean- ing on two sticks as unbending as his legs; and thus he climbed the village hill with bent back as if he were on stilts. It took him an hour, in good weather, to accomplish the 400 yards between his cot- tage and his destination. Midway, he ssonpee to take breath and the hapemey of the Black Lion, in accordance with a char- itable custom which dated from the day of his infirmity, brought him a ‘Jacques, a g00d mouthful of gin, which he swallowed, resting against the wall. A little refreshed by this the old man continued his climb, until he came to a rock. He leant against the straight, smooth wall, unable either to bend or to sit down, and broke stones for mending roads with a very long handled hammer which he wielded with both hands. He was paid by the cubit yard, and, on his best days, earned a franc and a half at the work. He did not beg, but accepted alms from kindly passers-by. While thi# was going on, Pierre Jacclard, his son, poached in the river. Few were more dexterous; he'caught barbel and pike, took in the deep lines which he had dropped over night, exploded water cartridges In the parts where there were most fish, and tickled trout in the streams. In the evening Pierre set traps for hares and rabbits; he had even been known to catch a roe. Secretly supplied the hotels in Liege knew how to insure the discretion of the villagers, when it was necessary, by a cou- pie of partridges or a broken-backed hare. hould the boys find him out, he gave them a blow, coppers or cigarettes, according to their age. But, unlike his fellow poachers, if by chance the constabfes came upon him unexpectedly, he did not resist. When he thought he had not been recognized, he threw himself flat down, attempted snake- like to crawl through the brushwood and to disappear in the meadow-grass with the cunning of the Sioux; otherwise he allowed himself to be taken with a good grace, in fact, gave himself up. He was well on his guard against any fit of mad anger, and never threatened to raise his gun, never tried to intimidate “authority.” tle politely took off his cap; they had caught him, se much the worse.

FOUGHT OVER A PISTOL IN SCHWENKER’S STORE. Story of Shooting by Rosche, Mortally Wounded, Differs from that Told By His Employer and John Norris. Herman Schwenker, grocer, and Frank Rosche. his clerk, who shot each other early Monday night in the former's store at 9683 Marcus avenue, occupy adjoining cots at the City Hospital. Schwenker'’s wound, which is in the shoul- der, is not considered serious. Rosche, who was shot through the liver and lung, is thought by Superintendent Nietert to be mortally wounded. The aartes of the shooting as told by the men differ. The only witness, John Norris of 4730 Kennerjy avenue, is held by the po- lice until these points of difference can be inquired into. Schwenker made this statement to the Post-Dispatch Tuesday: “I sent Rosche to a neighboring store to purchase butter for some customers who were waiting. He stayed more than an hour, and, when he came back, appeared to have been drinking. 1 told nim I did not require his service any longer. “He went upstairs and soon came down with a bundle, and asked me for some wrap- ing paper. I told him to hel himself. hen he began to swear at me and I slapped him in the face. He walked off. I turned to wait on a customer and he fired. a pistol, the bullet striking me in the left shoulder. “Tl ran at him and we fought all over the store for possession of,the pistol. I finally ot hold of the barrel dnd turned it against is stomach. It went off the second time while we both had hold of it and he fell.” Rosche said: “I was not drunk, and would not have shot Schwenker if he had not beaten me. “He did not shoot-me at all. While he and I were fighting over my pistol, young Norris ran behind the bar, got Schwenker’s pistol, and shot me.” Then the men were placed under ar- rést, a few minutes after the shooting, Rosche'’ s revolver had two empty chambers, and Schwenker’s was fully charged. Norris, in a statement to the police, de- nies taking any hand in the affray. His statement tends to corroborate that of Schwenkcr. Rosche js 2% years old, single, and resides at 4439 St. Ferdinand avenue. Schwenker 1s 48. He lives with his wife and child over his store. A warrant was issued Tuesday morning charging Rosche with asault to kill. The assistant prosecuting attorney declined to issue a warrant against Norris on Rosche’s statement.

He was eight years on the payroll of the Senate in that capacity and his subsequent honors and ex- - | flence did not make him forget the feelings of hag Oa eeEr gay 3. 8714 4.014. oat Ht 138, $13 he boys and men who fill such places today.

SITUATION SOMEWHAT MIXED Receipts in the Northwest Light, Cables Lower and the Demand Generally Light. Closing prices were but little above the loweat of the session and showed a very narrow range for tLe entire day. Wheat and flour clearances were 265,120 ess corn, 647,215 bu, and oats, 59,043 bu. May wheat closed ke down and July ‘sc below the previous close. May corn closed }@ 4c down, and July 4@%c down. May oats % below the previous close. The wheat market was # uncertain quantity to- day, conditions were somewhat mixed and traders inclined to hold off and await developments. Local receipts -were fair, but in the Northwest they were small, indeed. As an offset to any bullish feeling which might result there was some general unloading in the early part of the day’s session. May wheat opened 2G M4e down at Titec, and then sold at T4\4c, 744@74%c, T4\c, THC, T4wO T44%c and then at Tahoe again. July wheat opened somewhat late, at 73%«c. Liverpool was %d down for wheat. Paris 15 to 20 centimes, or %c to Ic, below the previous close. Antwerp unchanged. Receipts of wheat at St. Louls today were 42,042 bu, compared with 10,739 bu same date last year. Of these 552 sacks and 51 cara were local, com- pared with 773 sacks amd 10 cars same date last year. Receipts of wheat at Minneapolis and Duluth today were 210 cats, as compared with 5090 cars same date last year. Receipts of wheat at primary points today were 408,026 bu, as compared with 541,000 bu same date last year. Shipments, 256,900 bu, compared with 258,000 bu same date last year. Corn Narrow and in Poor Demand. Corn showed some weakness today, unloading, however, was light and the range narrow and c‘ose to the yt es closing price. A decline of Xd at Liverpool was the principal bear argument and added to this was the: fact that receipts continue heavy and not in the besi demand, May opened at 39c¢ and then sold at 38%@c, and later advanced to 39c and to 39@89%c, then fell to 30ec. July opened at 39¢ and sold up to 39° @ \ul4: fell to 39c and again advanced, going to 38'\\c. Receipts of corn at St. Louis today were 136,325 bu, compared with 95,200 bu saine date last year. Of tbese 450 sacks and 117 cars were local, com- pared with 108 cars same date last year. Receipts of corn at orimarv points today were 965,17 bu, as compared with 1,019,000 bu same date last year. Shipments, 447,006 bu, compared with 343,000 bu same date last year. Oats Receive Little Attention. The oats market attracted little attention today, traders till late in the day not favoring the futures with a single bid. A few offer prices were recorded, but these brought about no sales. May was offered at 26%4c and again at 26%c, Receipts of oats at St. Lonis today were 66,000 bu, compared with 70,800 bu same date last year. Of these 38 cars were local, compared with 42 cars same date last year. Cotton Narrow and Steady. The cotton market was narrow and some- what Rpt od today, Liverpool cables being % to 1 point down from the previous close. At New York Feb. open 8 points up, arom 1, May 2, July 2°down and Dec. 2 ‘The early advances in near months were ‘quickly lost, but later to a large degree re- covered, the market for some time hanging around the previous closing prices.

Feb. 26.—The market opened fever- ish and unsettled under the influence of conflicting movements in the steel stocks. The sale of 5000 'gphares of Steel and Wire carried that stock down from 431, to 42, compared with 45 last night. On the other hand. American Hoop on the sale of 5000 iphares, Was quoted at 37 and 35%, compared with $5 last night. National Tube rese 119. The other members of the group showed fractional changes both ways. The changes in the railroad list were also mixed. and the international stocks generally failed to respond to the advances in London. The railroads became generally strong. St. Paul was the leader and rose rapidly from 148 to 151%. Such stocks as Hurlington, Rock Island, Great Northern preferred, Pennsylvania, New York Cen- tral, Atchison, Kansas & Texas preferred, Nortn- ern Pacific, Union Pacific and Southern Rallway preferred gained a point or over and Delaware & tludson and Missouri Vacifie were benefited 2% and 2% respectively. Minneapolis and St. Louis stocks were active and the common rose 1 and the pre- ferrel 24). The steel group was feverish and under steady pressure Tinplate lost 2% in_ all and Tennessee Coal, National Tube, Steel and Wire common and preferred and Federal Steel ruled at the lowest of the morning, at 1 to 8 points under last night, except for American Hoop. General Electric ran off 3, but rallied sharply. and Conti- _tental Tobaeco preferred advanced 2 points. Bonds were lower in most cases. Prices of the steel stocks underwent rapid fluctua- tions following the nvublieation of authorized de- tajis of terims on which the stocks of the various steel companies will be exehanged into the new United States steel corporation. A heavy selling movement developed whil the stret was analyzing the terms offered, which drove Steel and Wire 244 points below Iast night, the preferred and National Steel 114, and lowered American ae preferred gh price at the st#rt. Federal Steel preferred declined 1% from the best. white Tinplate suffered a_ point. Anerican Hoon receded. but Federal Steel ruled | better than at the start. Ileavy liquidation of the smelting stocks lowered them 5 and 3% respective- ly for the common and pre fe ‘tred. In the general market prices were easier for the railroads, but the 'tobaceo slocks were strong, American Tobacco ris- ing 4 anc Centinental Tobacco 1%. Toward 11 o'clock there was a tise to 37% for American Hoop | and Steel and Wire, National Tube, National Steel land Tennessee Coal recovered 141%.

Hill of New York tendering his thanks for its request for an address from him and expressing his regret at being unable to comply. In part he wrote: ‘“‘The reference to political matters contained in the resolution leads me to say that the Democratic party, as the great conservative force of the country, is more than ever essential to the well being and safety of the republic. The nation is con- fronted at home by the malign influences of corruption and plutocracy and it is threaten@d abroad by the machinations of the enemies of constitutional government and popular liberty. ‘It becomes our party as patriots and Democrats to strengthen our party organ- ization to unite all elements of opposition to radicalism, to organize for further con- tests upon right lines, so as to make na- tional] victories again possible to avoid re- crimination and to subordinate all@selfish and personal considerations in the exhibi- tion of a widespread national and party pa- triotism. “We should stand as a solid phalanx in favor of a strict construction of the federal constitution for the preservation of the re- served rights of the ae for the main- tenance of the constitutional currency of our fathers, for a system of public taxation imposed for public purposes only, for econ- omy in all public expenditures and for the supremacy of the constitution with all its guarantees, over eve portion of our na- tional jurisdiction, and we should resist by every honorable means in our power the Republican efforts to fasten upon our coun- try the evils of militarism, the wrongs in- yolved in the diverston of public moneys in the shape of congressional subsidies, the tendencies toward centralization of power and the substitution of imperialistic ideas for the plain and simple theories of Demo- cratic government. “Upon all these issues the Democratic party is right, and sooner or later the right will surely prevail.”’ TO GRIEVE THE PHILATELISTS. Department Will Destroy a Quantity of Hawaiian Postal Cards. WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.—Tomorrow morning the postoffice department will de- stroy about 54,000 postal cards, which be- longed to the Republic of Hawaii. There are about 28,000 l-cent and 26,600 2-cent cards to be burned. This last remnant of Ha- wali's postal service wiil de placed in a big furnace especially constructed by the re- demption division for the purpose of de- stroying the postage stamps and postal cards of Hawali’s republican government. Two weeks ago all of the Hawalian uncan- celled postage stamps obtainable were burned. Their face value was about $58,000, but if the department had the power to seil them at least $100,000 would have been given for them by enterprising collectors. ROBERT FAUCETT GUILTY.

Baldwin, Jr.. Appealed to New York Physicians to Take Up the Crusade for Decency. NEW YORK, Feb. %.—William N. Bald- win, Jr., chairman of the committee of 15 in an address last night to a large number of physicians at the regular meeting of the Medical Association, to which he had been ™_ guest of honor, said of the vice situa- on: “I came here to be instructed, for the medical profession are the ones to lead in this matter. The committee of 15, of which I am a member, are not interested in refining or improving individual cases. None of us poses as purists. But we draw individual's morals. “Every child, rich or poor, should have a chance to grow up decent if it wants to. Every family should have a chance to be decent. And we mean that they shall have a chance. We have made much study of the social evil and the best methods' of im- proving conditions. We realize that abroad it is felt to be fmpracticable to regulate vice. But you and we don’t dare to meet ublic sentiment. The layman, however, s of small importance. It is the medical man who should lead the way and say what should be done. **Let us face facts. The g#ocial evil exists. It is our duty to see that it is kept in pe places and not where decency is r 16 good families is not the place for it. ‘“‘Are we afraid to face the condition and say you shall not contaminate the tene- ments?’’ ‘ “What shall we do with i[t? I am not speaking for the committee.

Then arose a cry of triumph from all of Amell’s friends, for all the foes save Larsen fell now on sit. At seven e’en Larsen faltered, a grim- ace on his face.

W. Has Been a Railroad Man for 57 Years. NEW YORK, Feb. 26.—The contemplated retirement early in June of Martin L. Sykes, first vice-president of the Chicagu Northwestern Raliroad, and also vice-pres- ident of the Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapelis & Omaha Railroad, has been confirmed, Mr, Sykes has had the step long under consid- eration. He has been in the railroad service for 57 consecutive years, and feels the need of relaxation and rest. Mr. Sykes began his railroad career with the construction corps of the old New Ha- ven and Hartford road in 1844, and he sub- sequently became superintendent of that road. During the civil war he was in the employ of the Cleveland, Painesville & Ash- tabula Railroad, which developed into the Lake Shore system, and he had charge of the transportation of,nearly all the troops ' from the western states. Soon after the close of the war Mr. Sykes entered the service of the Chicago & North- western Railroad, and has been with that company ever since in various capacities, treasurer, secretary, He was treas- urer of the company for a quarter of a cen- 'tury, and when the Chicago and Northwest- | ern acquired control of the Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha, in 1882, he be- came treasurer of that company as well. He was relieved of these financial offices 'at his own request about three years ago. ‘or several years he has been vice-presi- dent of both companies. Mr. Sykes will remain as a director of the Chicago and Northwestern system. His place as first vice-president, it is asserted, will be filled by the election of E. E. Os- born, now the general attorney of the com- pany. William Meyer’s Condition Critical.— Willlam Meyer of 3901 Kennerly avenue, who was shot by his brother-in-law in a be dving at the City Hospital.
