A notice was also posted by William N. Cromwell. the attorney for the bank, as . ‘the bank should. , oe ouse er 4 me . mittee’ eustodian of the funds of the '£ vension: ‘Heath, Perr follows: “In justice to the depositors and stock- holders of the Seventh National Bank, William Norton Cromwell, the bank's at- torney, has advised the bank to suspend payment.’’ The comptroller appointed Forrest Ray- ‘nor temporary receiver. He ordered the bank closed because it,would not comply with conditions he imposed on it Saturday. This action was taken after a protracted conference in the directors’ room of the bank which was participated in by the new president, Edward R. Thomas, ex-President Wm. H. Kimball, Edwin Gould, Lorenzo Sempel, who is one of the directors, and several other members of the board and Forrest Raynor, national bank examiner. After the suspension of the bank the fol- lowing statement was made at the clearing ouse: “At the clearing house this morning the Seventh National Bank came in debtor ,108.9. The clearing house committee as been in session since 9:30 awaiting the resuits of the clearing. When it was found the debit balance was so heavy the coin- mittee communicated with the officers of the bank and was informed that the Board ef Directors was in session and that a decision would be arrived at within 15' or 20 minutes as to the action of the bank. In consequence of this statement the clear- ings were held back 30 minutes. At 10:45 . . Mr. William Nelson Cromwell, Mr. fain Gould and Mr. E. R. Thomas, pres- ident of the benk, came into the clearing house and informed the committee that, in -vlew of their heat debit balance and for r reasons, it was considered wise that ja orarily suspend.

The Seventh National Bank was _ the New York postoffice. Assistant Postmaster Morgan said when he heard the news of the banks “The postoffice is amply protected.

Among the institutions having cl ness relations with the Seventh was the stock brokerage firm of M ose busi- National arquand & Co. Frank B. Poor of the firm made the | following statement after the bank's sus- pension: 5 “from the outlook just now,’ said he, “T think we're going on. At the same time, we cannot tell. Just now everything is un- certain in the business world, but l believe we will t through.”’ The ewan th National Bank was origi- mally the old Seventh Ward Bank, and was established in 1833. For a long time control of the institution was held by John Mc- Anerney, a southerner, who was president of the bank. In May, 1899, First Assistant Postmaster-General Perry 8S. Heath prac- tically acquired a controlling interest in the stock of the Seventh, and, on July 4, William H. Kimball resigned as national bank examiner to become vice-president of the Seventh, several changes in the direc- torate being made at the same time. Josiah uincy of Rostan was one of the directors elect then. On Aug. 2, 1899. Mr. McAnerney resigned the presidency and Vice-President Kimball was chosen in his stead. Fletcher S. Heath was elected vice-president. The ofticers and directors are as follows: E. R. Thomas, president; Fletcher Ss. Heath, vice-president, George W. Adams, cashier; directors, George . Adams, Eu- ene Bissell, Thomas M. Boyd, Fletcher 8. S. Heath, Erskine Hewitt, imball Alexander McDonaid, dae Major, William P.

If the congregation of the church of the Immaculate Conception, whose church and parochial school are built on this property, does not find a new site and arrange for the erection of a new church the archbishop announces that the parish will be abolished and its territory distributed amongst the adjoining parishes. . yy “I do not regard the Immaculate Concep- tion Church as a necessity,”’ said the arch- bishop to the Post-Dispatch, ‘‘even though it be quite a convenience to many persons residing in its immediate vicinity.”’ Members of the Immaculate Conception congregation are not pleased with the arch- bishop's attitude toward their little church. They even appeared disposed to resist his purpose to terminate their parochial ex- istence. Some gentlemen of the congregation go so far as to hint that injunction proceed- ings may be instituted to restrain the arch- bishop, should he attempt to sell their regardless of their objections. But the archbishop makes his announce- ment with full knowledge of their views on the subject. He knows that they ques- | parish should not! abolished, for new Cathedral feel that the little be inconvenienced, if not the sake of the wealthy parish. Archbishop Wants a Grand Cathedral. tion his title to the property, and that they But the archbishop says that they ought not to interfere with his efforts to provide | } St. Louis witfl a grand cathedral, such as | a metropolis with such a large Catholic. population deserves, and he smiles at ‘their contention that he does not hold title to the property. The question of the sale of the church, which has now reached a crisis, has not developed recently. For five years or more it has been agitated. Dec. 13, 1896, Archbishop Kain notified Rev. Gerald D. Power, who has been pastor of the church since 18$4, that he proposed to sell the church lot, along with the property adjoining it on the east, and that if his congregation did not proceed to purchase the church lot within a reasonable time he would feel at liberty to sell the lot to the first person offering a sufficiently valuable consideration. Instead of collecting a fund to purchase the property the church trustees (10 lay- | men) consuited an attorney and received | from him a voluminous opinion on the con- regation's rights in the premises. This opinion was that the congregation was vested with an equitable title in fee in the property. Backed by this opinion, the congregation has since made no effurt to purchase the property or invest in a new site. When Archbishop Kain, a month ago finally accepted plans for the magnificent new Cathedral, his mind reverted once more to the Immaculate Conception Church lot and the large lot adjoining. The Original C@hedral Site. The church lot is 100 feet. The lot ad- joining is 308 feet. It extends all the way to Twenty-third street, and was originally selected as the site for the new St. Louis Cathedral. But the late Archbishop Ken- rick, before his death, concluded that the cathedral! should be built further west. The Immaculate Conception congregation knew this and expected that some day the 30s- foot lot would be sold and the proceeds ap- plied to the new cathedral farther west. But Archbishop Kain decided that the 1-foot church lot should also be sold for the same purpose. So, after the new cathedral plans were adopted and he was confronted with the task of securing the money necessary to its construction, he inquired if the congre- zation were ready to buy the church lot.

Each priest can say anly two on Sunday, unless the Sunday happens to be Haster Sunday or Christ- mas, when they were permitted to, say three. Ever since 1878 there have been at least four masses at this church every Sunday. The members of the congregation have had no meeting since June & and have de- cided on no positixe peer of action in case the archbishop shold take further action. They have resurrected the attorney's opin- ion, which says they have a vested inter- est in the property, however, and ta’k about it in a way that impels the conclusion that they will test the matter legally before they allow the church to be sold “over their heads,’’ as they put It. Archbishop Is Not Werried. But the archbishop apparently does not regard their dissatisfaction seriously. “The corner of Jefferson avenue and Lo- cust street is no place for a church,” he told the Post-Dispatch Thursday morning. “There is so much noise in that neighbor- hood that it is extremely difficult for the | congregation there to hear Father Powers voice on Sunday. “The church has never done anything. Its windows, its organ, and even its pews were removed there from the old Immacu- late Conception Chureh at Eighth and Chestnut streets when ‘the present church was built. “The congregation wants to continue as a congregation, but does not do anything to prove to me why it should. I have given it plenty of time. ‘‘In their letter to me, rejecting my offer of $10,000, the gentlemen who signed the communication say that ‘before selecting a site it will be necessary to have a sufficient sum of money in hand.’ I agree with them. But 1 am not going to give them the suf- ficient sum of money. I am not going to make them any more offers than I made al- ready. ‘“T am going to sell the church. “The new cathedral must be built and the money that will be realized from the sale of the Locust street property, including the church lot, will be needed to build the new cathedral. “If they can securé an appropriate site for a parish church within the present par- ish, all right. Otherwise, the parish will be abolished when the church is sold. of course, the closing of the church will in- convenience some people; that is, make them walk a few blocks farther to some other church. But I do not believe the pres- ent church is a necessity, and I think the building of a new cathedral is of more im- portance to the Catholics of St. Louis at arge. Not Afraid of Their Contention.

Mundt’s Design, Which Will Throw Bodies Off the Track, Not Approved by Engineer Gar- ’. -rett of the B. P. I. Secretary Waller Edwards of the Board of Publitc Improvements has written te Chief Draftsman A. H. Mundt of the St. Louis Transit Co. informing him that plans for fenders which the company had prom; ised to submit have not been received, al- though letters have been received stating that the plans had been forwarded. The only plan thus far submitted to the board by the Transit company is one de- vised by Mr. Mundt. It follows the general outlines of a locomotive cowcatcher, and is designed, its inventor says, ‘“‘not to pick up bodies, but to throw them out of the way.’ The cowcatcher fender runs on wheels nine inches in diameter, and is construct- ed of wood. It extends for five feet in front of the car platform. The wooden bars which form the surface are curved outward to form a hyperbolic paraboloid, or what is commonly known as a warped surface, The advantage which Mr. Mundt claims for his fender is that ft will allow no per- son to get under the wheels at any time. “A person struck by a car,’ says Mr. Mundt “is generally standing up or is on his hands and feet.

It developed at the morning session that some of the commissioners desired addi. tional information regarding the site before taking a vote upon its approval. | President D. R. Francis of the Louisiana Purchase Exposition Co. was sent for and explained some points which the commis- sioners desired elucidated. After his departure the stenographer was instructed to make out a lst of queations, which, it is said, will be presented to the officers of the local company. One subject upon which the commission desires additional information is the exact area of the proposed fair grounds. In the site adopted Tuesday by the local company, the only definite boundaries were the limits set by the ordinance offering the free use of the park. Commissioner Carter said Thursday morning that it was not the intention to take up the appointment of the board of lady managers at this meeting. There are a number of applications file for places upon this board. The of Mrs. James L.

MORRISON JUAY STILL OUT ELDORADO, Kan., June 27.--The Jessie Morrison jury was still out at ll o'clock this morning. Eacepting for meals, the jury has been allowed to leave the courthouse since it retired at 10 o'clock yesterday morning. The jurors had not even been to bed. For “4 hours they had been arguing and wrang- ling over the case. Through the open windows of the jury room they could be heard constantly talk- ing. Bach hour of delay in the retura of a verdict gives hope to Miss Morrison's at- torneys. The defense has not — for ac- yuittal, but for a hung jury, and they pro- fees to believe that the 12 men will be dis- charged without having reached a verdict.

LOUIS OFFICE ARRANGING FOR FREE DELIVERY. MANY VILLAGES INCLUDED Postmaster Baumhoff Has a Yearly Allowance of $18,000 and Will Employ From 30 to 45 Men. Postmast-r Baumhoff is perfecting ar- fangements for a free mail delivery in the suburbs of St. Louis County and the rural districts surrounding St. Louis. The postal department. in Washington re- | cently granted the St. Louis postmaster an edditional aliowance of $18,000 a year to be used in maintaining letter carriers for the Suburban settlements in St. Louis County. These settlements include Webster Groves, O11 Orchard, Tuxedo Park, Shrews- ‘bury, Clayton, Hillside, Oak Grove, Well- ston, Woodland, Jennings Station, Luxem- bourg and the rural country lying between. Mr. Baumhoff stated Thursday morning that work on what is known as the west- ern districts, which includes Webster Groves, Old Orchard, Tuxedo Park and Shrewsbury Park, had already been start- ed and that he hopes to have two letter carriers out by July 1 and another one sf July 16. -He will subdivide the districts, piacing two carriers in Webster Groves, one in Old Orchard and one for Tuxedo and Shrewsbury Parks. In this way the work will be pursued by degrees until all the districts are covered. In speaking of this system Mr. Baumhof?f said: ‘The $18,000 allowed me by the depart- ment will employ 30 letter carriers, and al- | sh the money will be available July 1, will not employ the whole 30 at that date. If I only employ two men on July 1 I will save the salary of 28 men for 15 days, or $700. By taking on two more on July 15, the salary of 26 men, or $650, is saved. In this way I find that the $18,000 will employ 4 men instead of 30. “There is much work to be done, however, before we can employ letter-carriers. Among other things, a number of the streets must ‘ be renamed. While looking over the map this morning I found a Pine street. It is our purpose to have letters inteded for suburban towns simply addressed St. Louis, Mo,., and they will go through this office /in the same manner that the West End mail is now handled, so, of course, it would be very confusing to have several streets named alike.” DELEGATE KINNEY’S KICK. Delegate Thomas E. Kinney of the Fourth ward is dissatisfied with Comp- troller Player's action in approving Fred- erick Geimer as sweeper at Union Mar- ' ket, and has protested to the comptroller . and to Mayor Wells. Delegate Kinney says that the appointment belongs to his ward and that his candidate for the place, | Thomas Tierney, should have been ap: | pointed and confirmed. ’ When he made his first complaint to the | _ comptrolier Wednesday, Delegate Kinney | was under the impression that Geimer | was a Republican. He has learned since, that the comptroller’s appointee is a Dem- | ocrat, but says that he still has a ‘kick | poming. , as Geimer is a resident of South oe outs. L “The job doesn’t amount to so much,” | said the Fourth ward representative, but | , it's the principle of the thing I'm sticking | up for.

REPORT ON. CAR ACCIDENTS. June Grandjury Expected to Return Several Indictments. The June grandjury will make final report in Judge Wocd's court Thursday afternoon. It is expected that an extended report will be made upon the jury’s investigation of the strect car fatalities. Nearly every accident in which a person lost his life was made the subject of investigation, and t is thought that several indictments have een found. The license tag fraud cases occupied much time. Five indictments have ulready been returned and the persons indicted have been arrested. It is thought that this investigation has been concluded and that .Mo more indictments will be returned.

When asked as to the effect of the failure, he said: “I don't know anything about any con- cern except our own and that, I can as- sure you, is all right. If anyone asks ref- erence on the subject I can refer him to 'the state bank examiner. His statement wil, I am sure, be taken. I know there are rumors connecting us with the trouble of the Seventh National, but they are merely camety. I am happy to say we are all right.’’ At noon President Tappan of the Galla- tin National Bank, and chairman of the clearing house committee, said he did not think that any firms or banks, even small ones, would fail as a result of the Seventh National's suspension. President Alvah Trobridge of the Ninth National Bank reiterated his denial of / connection with any of the financial trans- |actions which impaired the Seventh Na- | tional. “IT regret the closing of the Sev- |enth National,"’ he said. “I don't belleve any other bank will be affected; in fact, I am assured by the clearinghouse that none will be.

Upon receipt on Wednesday of further informa- tion regarding the nature of the collaterais securing this loan he sent a telegram to Mr. E. R.

A sprinkling wagon belonging to the Met- ropelitan Improvement Co., filled with wa- ter, was stolen from the southeast cor- ner of Jefferson avenue and Pine street Thursday morning. At noon no trace of the missing wagon had been seen by the company’s Officials or by the police. The exploit ef “Old Hoss” Hoey, used to steal a red-hot stove on the stage, was almost equaled by the men who got the sprinkling cart away from its driver, Tom Douglas. This they accomplished by getting the old negro away from the cart. Douglas had driven to the corner of Jef- ferson avenue and Pine streéts to fill his water tank. He attached his hose to a fire- plug and waited patiently until the big res- ervoir commenced to show signs of over- flowing. Then he shut off the stream and started to mount the cart for his trip down Pine street, Four men were Handing on and one of these invited Douglas to have a drink. At first the negro refused, but when the men pressed their invitation and slapped the old man on the back In old col- lege chum fashion the driver could not re- sist. He crogsed the street with two of the men. When they had the driver, Inside the sa- loon door the two men seemed to be in no hurry about buying drinks. The barten- der was busy, and it was not until the old man said that he would have to be going that the drinks were ordered. Then due time was taken in preparing and disposing of the orders. “Good-by, old man,’ said the one who had stoo treat, and he left the saloon before Douglass could follow him. When the negro passed out of the door, he saw that his cart was missing from the corner opposite. A trail of water lead- ing down Pine street showed that the ve- hicle had gone east with a full head of water turned on. Down Pine street to Sixteenth and then north to Washington avenue the old man followed the watery trail of the cart. Then the atream ceased and atill no cart was in sight. He reported the theft of the team and cart to Supt. Elmer McClure, and a force of men was started in search of the missing cart. Mr. MoClure says that Douglas is one of the oldest and most reliable drivers in the company’s employ and he is not Iin- cliped to blame him too severely for the logan of the cart “The old man tells me that he took a drink with the fellows to get rid of them,” said Mr. McClure, ‘‘and I suppose it never entered his head that he might get rid of his cart at the same time.”’ who the corner, Marriage Licenses.

GOES TO A FR aa Chicago's Former Fire Chief Watched His Successor. HARD FIGHT FOR THE LATTER THE OLD-TIMER LOOKED ON WITH A LONGING, LONESOME LOOK. “Y’m From Oshkosh,’ He Said to Warning Policeman, ‘Just Want to See "Em Put It Out.” CHICAGO, June 27.—Breaking through a circle of congratulatory friends a few hours after his official elevation to the command of the Chicago fire department, Chief “Bill” Musham, helmet in hand and struggling into his rubber coat, dashed out of the City Hall yesterday afternoon to the first fire at which he was in supreme command. The blaze was in the paint and varnish Warehouse of the Devoe & Raynolds Co., 176 Randolph street, and was the most threatening of any recent down-town fire. hile the new chief was shouting his orders amid the pandernonium and beneath ihe showers of falling glass, an old man-- stout but garbed in a new Blue summer suit and Straw hat—slowly walked through the po- lice lines and stopped to gaze upward at the flames which were shooting from the top- most windows. It was Denis J. Swenie, who had that morning become plain Citi- zen Swenie for the first time in haf ; century. The gathering thousands that the police Sought to push back from danger forgot all about the fire and fixed their gaze on the grizzled veteran who looked so uncom- fortable in the summer resort hat. He clasped his hands behind his back, rocked back and forth on his heels and looked up critically at the work of the men. Then hie edged nearer bit by bit to the charmed cir- cle and Capt. Gibbons touched him admon- ishingly on the arm. “Get back, sir: public must keep out of danger,’’ spoke the big police official, the railierv twinkling in his eye. “Don’t mind me—I’m from Oshkosh—just wanted to see how you put out fires in Chi- cago,’’ rejoined the ex-chief. Just a Touch of Sentiment. Then the old fire fighter resumed his pose and gazed so long and with such a queer, fixed expression up into the rolling smoke that a friend who had been studying the picture turned to Marshal Campion and ex- claimed: “I believe the old man’s getting sentimen- tal about it all.’’ “Nonsense, sir, nonsense,’’ gruffly blurt- ed out Citizen Swenie, turning upon the speaker. Then he found that he had let a/| stepped fresh cigar go out, and he rather avoided Marshal Campion's eye as he added: “Got a match, Marshal?’ The grizzicd old man in the fashionable | straw hat slipped through the crowd and walked slowly away. Meanwhile Chief Musham was having a hard tussle with the fire. Lead after lead of hose was strung up the front of the four- story building and men swarmed through the windows to the seat of the flames on the third floor, where the fire was first dis- burning varnish stock poured from the top floor and blackened the sky co the west. Finally the new chief was seen to start from his place of command and go swing- ing up the ladder to the thisd fleur landing. There he seized u pike-poic from a fire- man’s hands and dashed through the win- dow into the gulf «f smoke. cry went up that Chief Musham hed been cut off in ‘ie dense smk, but al- most on the instant he appeared and thrust a blackened face wut of the window, while he issued a torrent of orders) More hose went up, @ score more firemca manued the ladders, and in three minuies the fire was ovt.

While the spectators Mned the bank of the canal and watched the woman’s dying struggles in the water the murderer stood and watched the bubbles coming to the | surface. The policeman reached the bank. | He had his choice of capturing the man | or attempting to save the woman. He ‘chose the latter course, and the murderer ‘and the crowd watched him. No one of- ‘he might, could not save her. Then the murderer turned and left, the policeman still trying to reach the victim. Murderer Made His Escape. Charles White, the murderer, made his escape. The Lockport police think he is in Ciinton, Ia., where he is known to have Georgia Page, the woman, was taken from the canal until she was dead. W. A. Dail, the sanitary poliecman, recovered her body after White had es- caped. = the little colored settlement near Lock- port, where White and Georgia Page lived, the woman was regarded as the mans wife. They had quarreled frequently be- cause of his jealousy, and Wednesday night the man had been worked into a furious anger. The woman had made preparations to leave the cabin, and he learned of it before she could make her escape. All during the evening the noise of their fight- ing was heard. The neighbors were at- tracted by it, but none had the courage or the disposition to interfere. It was nearly midnight when the door of the cabin was opened suddenly and White out with the strugg/ing woman held tightly in his arms. He waiked swiftly to the edge of the canal, a short distance away. A crowd followed him, and no threats of his were necessary to show his purpose. When he reached the edge of the water he ture the woman’s arms from their clutch on his clothing, swung back his arms, and threw her over the bank. Her cries re- doubled as she struck the water, but the spectators stood impassively and watched her dying struggles. White’s reputation among them was not one to encourage in- terference with his plans of vengeance. @ Shirt Waist Hats.

He shouted for assistance to rescue the woman and arrest the man. Not a man on the bank moved to help him. White gave no attention to the policeman, but waited to see his vengeance completed. Dail, without help, tried to prevent the murder rather than to arrest the mur- derer. He vainly hunted for a board, a rope ,or aoa with which he could reach the woman. hite’s muscular arms had served the purpose of his vengeance and had hurled her into midstream. The po- liceman had not been able to reach the canal quick enough and the struggle in se ee Was nearly over when he ar- rived. As White saw the woman sink the last time and saw the bubbles come to the top and then stop coming.he knew that his vengeance was accomplished. With the po- liceman still watching for the woman to come to the surface again, he turned and pushed the spectators aside. No one stopped his: going and soon he was lost in the dark- ness. Search for the Murderer. Dail, finding that the woman was beyond help, sent a report to Marshal Coon of the sanitary police and search was made at once for the murderer. A description was sent to the Chicago police and detectives hunted for him through the city yesterday. As soon as it became daylight the y of the woman was found. It was taken to Chamberlain's undertaking establishment at Lockport. White is nearly 200 pounds In weight and 6 feet high. He was the acknowledged lead- er of the colored men living along the canal. He was a laborer on the Drainage canal when it was being one. For three years he and Georgia Page had lived to- gether. She was the comeliest woman in the settlement. He was the strongest man. His quick temper and his —- were the cause of frequent quarrels and had in- duced her to try to break with him. In the opinion of the police no murder in Chicago has been accomplished by such merely brute methods, none so primitive in its savagery and barbarism. one has been committed with a crowd of passive spectators watching it with almost idle cu- osity.

STEINFELD OF CHICAGO. QUEER WANT ADVERTISEMENT The Money Was From an Unknown Person Whom She Had Attended in Illness. Special to the Post-Dispatch. CHICAGO, June 27.—Mrs. John G. Stein- feld, wife of a florist at Forty-third street and Drexel boulevard, was called upon by three men who were strangers and had the appearance of lawyers. After questioning her closely for the purpose of identifica- tion the men presented her with a package containing $50,000 and immediately left the house. Mrs. Steinfeld was too much excited by the visit to do any questioning and did not open the package in the presence of her visitors. The visit of the men with the cash was the climax to an anxious night ——< by the recipient, owing to a pecu- lar ‘opeseonal’ which had appeared in an afternoon paper Tuesday. It was as fol- lows: Mrs. J. G.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, June 27.—The navy de- partment is providing some of the warships with a new life raft. It consists of an elliptical copper tube, somewhat flattened, with airtight compartments, strengthened by fins. The tube is incased in cork, wound with canvas and made absolutely water- tight. Attached to this float is a rope netting three feet deep, from which is suspended a wooden slat bottom. The net- ting is suspended on the inner side of the float from rings which travel on lashings, so that the bottom rests in the proper po- sition, no matter which side of the float falls upon the water when it is throwr overboard. It does not require to be right- ed, adjusted or turned about; it is ready for service the moment it strikes the water. Oars are attached to the sides of the float to propel it when it is occuptied. Enough persons cannot get on this craft to sink it, and, unlike the lifeboat, it can- not capsize or founder, nor, like a raft, go to pieces against the sides of a ship. The war department !s considering the advisability of equipping army transports with the same sort of float. CHIEF MEREDITH WAS INSANE. The Dead Man Had Brooded Over His Grudge Against Considine. SEATTLE, Wash., June 27.—Further iIn- vestigation into the shooting of ex-Chief of Police Meredith by John W. Considine have brought to light few new details. It seems, however, that the wounds inflicted upon Meredith’s head by Tom Considine during the hand-to-hand combat between the two brothers and Meredith were more serious than at first supposed. An autopsy revealed that Meredith’s skull was fractured in two places by blows from a clubbed revolver. The coroner says insensibility would have followed either blow in an ordinary man, also that the fractures might have caused death had Meredith not been shot. The cor- oner will hold an inquest. Thousands of persons have visited the morgue to view the body. The room where it lies is fairly filled with cut flowers and floral offerings. The funeral will be held Sunday afternoon, interment being made here. There ts a growing belief that Meredith was not far from insane at the time of the shooting. He had brooded over his grudge against Considine for many days and his friends who talked with him on the day of the tragedy say he was undoubtedly mentally unbalanced. — Mice, Cockroaches, Bugs, Croton Bugs, and all other Vermin _...vy using...

Flames and clouds of smoke poured out from the hold and when the officers and crew were about to abandon hope First Of- ficer Reid and Fourth Officer Harrison vol- unteered a daring plan.

There are about 50 egg candlers in St. Louis and a great many more egg packers Candling and packing are distinct trades, though the two are affiliated in one union.

CHICAGO, June 27.—The disappearance of Charles F. Marcher with the winnings of a number of men who had patronized his winter book on the Derby, was foretold in FIRECRACKERLESS FOURTH — FOR SMALL BOYS AND BIG ACCORDING TO MAYOR WELLS -_ ‘lation of | straints, adream. Charlie Gray of the Gray Cigur Co., 232-238 Washington street, who held two of Marcher’s tickets calling for $45), was the man to whom the message was im- | parted. | Mr. Gray’s bets with Marcher were placed | threugh a third party. Before making the bets close inquiry was made into the relila- |, ar oe of Marcher & Co. On the assurances | received Mr. Gray made the following bets: | On Terminus, $750 to $10 to win; $300 to $10, | place; $150 to $10, to show. Saturday afternoon Mr. Gray played golf. On his way home he learned the result of | the Derby. Terminus had run second, and he felt the tickets in his inside pocket swell into a roll of $450. He went home and retired early, git oe the agTeeable task of cashing his tickets until Monday morn- i ng. : But even the exercise of an afternoon of olf failed to. make Mr. Gray sleep well. trange influences were at work. While sleep strove to dominate his tired brain | these other influences struggled to warn, him of impending misfortune. A vision of | Marcher aleap earing in the distance with | the proceeds of the winter book continually floated through his mind. Although not a believer fh dreams, Mr. Gray was impressed with this one. On Sun- day he met a friend who had also scored on the winter book. ‘We will never get our money, Marcher ski out,”’ said Mr. Gray, and he told of dream. The friend laughed. Mr. Gray did not hurry to the office of Marcher & Co. to cash his tickets Monday morning. About 10 o'clock his telephone bell rang. His friend was on the wire: ’ “Say, Charlie,’ he said, “your dream has come true. Marcher has skipped, and there are about forty men loo to cash. king for him with He hasn't been seen since Apparently the man who stands on the corner downtown and throws a large, pow- der-coated marble on the sidewalk as pe- destrians pass will have a big trade this year. No one has _yet been hurt by his perpetual torpedo, and there is nothing in the ordinances forbidding the use of such a device. Chance for an Inventor. Squibs, crackers, rockets and all other fireworks which are ‘fired or set off’’ are definitely mentioned in the ordinances. If some one can invent a self-firing article of fireworks which will work automatically and make a prodigous noise, and can con- vinee the police that his invention is be- yond the scope of the law, he may reap wealth in St. Louis next Thursday. ‘The Fourth of Juiy Celebration Associa- tion's festivities will not be interfered with by the new order, Mayor Wells says. The managers of the association are to have permits to use all the fireworks they desire to, and the mayor believes that there will be a more general employment of the public demonstration if the usual casualties at- tending several thousand private celebra- tions are omitted. When the policeman and the small boy are pitted against each other in single in- | stances, striking results often follow. What may happen when the entire juvenile popu- the city, free from school re- loaded down with pennies and boiling over with patriotism, arrays itself against the police force remains to be seen. Some such a test will come next week, and the small boy, who is wont to begin his Independence Day celebration long before the sun has dawned on July 4, may give up What he considers his heaven-born rights as reluctantly as his forefathers of ("76 would have given up their favorite di- i version of tossing tea into Boston harbor. whom Marcher rented an office in the Atheneum building, at 52 Dearborn street, and said she would give up the key this morning. She refused to give her name and address, and said she knew nothing about Marcher or his whereabouts. So far as the law is concerned it does not appear that there was any necessity for Marcher to leave the city. The police are taking no interest in the case. IRON CONSUMPTION LARGE. This Is Particularly True in Demand for Structural Material. NEW YORK, June 27.—The Iron Age in its issue today will say: So far as the foundry iron trade is con- cerned the markets have been rather quiet, and are still balancing. Cincinnati, which is the chief distributing point for southern iron, Is rather weak. In the East the pur- chases of basic pig by the leading steei in- terests, both for western and New England delivery, are having their effect. Among these sales is one lot of 6000 tons. In Pitts- burg some larger outside stee] companies have taken round blocks of Bessemer pig. Apparently, however, it is only for prompt |Shipment that this iron is wanted. Consumption continues on a large scale, and there are those who feel confident that it is bound to continue up to the top notch | well into the winter months. In many lines, as in steel rails, and in railroad equipment generally, this is abundantly assured by the orders on the books. In structural ma- terial, in which there was a lull in new or- ders, there is more doing. Some very good contracts have just been placed, among them one lot of 10,000 tons for improvements at the Pueblo works of the Colorado Fue! and Iron Co, The same is true of the ship- yards on the lakes, which have just booked additional tonnage. he labor situation is being given less consideration. The end of the machinists’ strike is in sight. so that that consumin branch will soon be restored to its norma condition. It is not believed that there is serious danger over the molders’ demands, while the conferences between the amal- gamated association and the Union rolling mills are likely to lead to an early adjust- ment. The flood in West Virginia will not de- lay coke shipments from that important district for more than two weeks at the utmost. Some uneasiness has been caused by the reports from England that steel billets and wire rods were again being offered from this side. This was construed as an in- timation that powerful interests had evi- dence that there is danger of consumption here falling off later on. We understand. however. that the management of the United States Steel Corporation has decided to —— the policy pursued by constituent companies in the past of selling abroad only when relief was desirable.

NEW YORK, June 27.-—The ‘‘Gov-Goo Beyes’’ case was revived by Mrs. Elizabeth F. Whitehead bringing a suit for divorce from her millionaire husband, Lydel!l Whitehead, president of the Whitehead Construction Co. ‘The suit was filed in the supreme court fn Brooklyn, despite the fact that Mr. Whitehead's suit had been refused bv a Marhattan jury. Mrs. Whitehead appiled to Justice Gaynor for $1000 counsel fees and $150 a week alimony. Mrs. Whitehead alleges that her husband treated her cruelly and brought her into Gisrepute by representing in his divorce @uit that she had made “goo goo eyes” at John Fred Thomas, and also hat her hus- band abandoned her. She asscrts that her husband receives an income of more than $200,000 a year and that he is the owner of the trotting horse Saratoga Baile. Mr. Whitehead, in his answering affidavit, Genies that his share of the profits of the Whitehead "“Gonstruction Co. exceeds 5,000 a y er, and says he owns no trotting t’ Virginia, which he is willing to sell for He says that after his suit had been decided against him in Manhat- tan, he had invited his wife to share with bim his mansion, Camelot, in Dutchess County, but that she had refused. Her vindication by the jury, he said, had made him offer her every right to which she was entitled. He asserted that he still beileved that he had grounds for a divorce. Whitehead accused his wife of having ade “‘goo-goo eyes’ at John’ Frederick homas, Jr., at the dinner table in their’ me, and that, while he noticed she was seeiningly very fond of Thomas, he sus- pected nothing until he surprised them one es in his home whispering to each other Miss Louise Whitehead, a stepdaughter of Mrs. Whitehead, admitted during the last trial that she had urged her step- mother to fight her father’s application for divorce. She testified that she had often caught her stepmother and Mr. Thomas “holding hands’’ under the dining table.

Carson Probably Fatally Injured in Trying to Save Violin— Husband Sorry the Fiddle Was Burned. TOPEKA, Kan., June 27.—Horribly burned and dying in intense agony was the fate of Mrs. W. C. Carson, wife of a Cow- ley County farmer, because her husband re- fused to deposit $5000 in a place named by unknown blackmailers. Word reached this city of the tragedy which happened. Saturday night in an ob- scure settlement away from postoffice and telegraph stations. Three weeks ago Carson, who is wealthy, received an anonymous note requesting him to bury $500 at the foot of a telephone by the roadside under penalty of having his house burned. The suggestion was ignored. One wek later another anonymous note | was received, this time stating that if $olvy | was not deposited within a week his house would be burned and he would be killed in addition. night while munication, and on Saturday : or Mr. Carson was en route to Oxford mail the home was fired. Mrs. Carson was found about 10 feet from the ruins by Mr. Dunn, a neighbor, horribly burned and in- sensible. She was taken home by Mr Dunn, where «he rallied enough before dy- ing, Sunday, te relate her knowledge o the transaction. She rushed outside when she discovered the fire, but remembered some valuable pa- pers and a treasured old violin, and tried to save them. From that moment her mind was a blank until she awoke in the home of Mr. Dunn. When Mr. Carson returned he expressed great grief at the loss of his violin and papers and at the condition of his wife.

You can announce an opinion as to the power of the secre- tary of the treasury to settle the claims of merchants who paid duties under pro- test on Porto Rican goods imported into the United States between the date of the ratification of the Paris treaty and the assage of the Foraker act. Under the Deoreme Court’s recent decisions in the insular test cases Dooley & Co. have made a claim for the refund of duties paid be- tween the dates named. The controller is now examining the evidence in this par. | ticular case to etermine if possible what | principle the secretary would follow in paying all all similar claims. "hen the Supreme Court’s decision mat made public it was popularly supposed wat| there was available in the treasury money for the payment of this class of claims, Dit | ® when the subject was considered by th treasury authorities it was found that it | may be necessary for Congress to pass al@ special appropriation bill for this purpose. Congress a year ago, by special act, re- turned to Porto Rico, for the general bet- terment of the island, all the money col-, lected as customs duties on Porto Rican | merchandise from the date of the ratifica- tion of the Paris treaty to the passage of the Foraker act. he amount thus refunded was $2,000,000. Assistant Secre- tary Spaulding says that there is ——_ money in the treasury appropriated for t administration of customs services and still unexpended with which these claims could be settled if the secretary has the power to do so without special authority from Congress. If it is finally decided that the secretary of the treasury has ample authority to settle this class of claims out of hand, the payment of the Dooley claim will be the signal for the filing of other similar claims. What amount will thus be refunsed cannot now be even approximately estimated. HER COLONIES WILL RULE HER. British Statesmen See Ahead the Con- trol of Their Nation Usurped. LONDON, June 27.—An important confer- ence has just been held at the colonial office, and preliminary arrangements have been made for takihg up the matter of court appeal.

This conference is one of the sequences to the Australian common- wealth settlement, which was arranged by @ compromise between Mr. Chamberlain and Mr. Barton, and which left Canada and other colonies in an anomalous position. The auestion lies on the fringe of the whole fabric of imperial federation, the proof of which few English statesmen un- derstand.

Panic Following Lightning Stroke— Several Fatalities. PITTSBURG, Pa., June 27.—During a ter- rifie storm yesterday afternoon, one woman was killed instantly by lightning and sev- eral other persons may die from the same cause. Numberless houses and churches were struck by lightning. In the city proper no fatalities are reported, but in Homestead Mrs. Alice Lester, aged 24, was struck by lightning and instantly killed. Miss Grace Jackson, aged 19, of Homestead was struck and her recovery is doubtful. Richard Rucker, also of Homestead, was frightfully burned by the electrical fluid and will hard- ly recover. At South Avenue Park, at the end of the Suburban Traction Co.'s lines, a icnic party, composed of 1200 persons, 700 of whom were children, gathered tn the danc- ing pavilion for shelter from the stofm. _} Lightning struck a tree within eight feet of the pavilion and set fire to the structure. The picnickers were panic-stricken. Wom- en fainted, children screamed and even the men gave way to their fright. Fortunately, the heavy rain extinguished the flames, although a large number of the party were all more or less hurt. A similar panic ensued at St. Joseph's Parochial School on Mount Oliver, where commencement exercises were being held. The hall was filled with children and their parents when lightning struck the building, tearing a portion of the roof away.

LOCAL LEADERS TO DISCUSS PLANS THURSDAY AFTERNOON. es VIEWS OF LEE MERIWETHER He Says the State Organization Will Be Pushed—Mentions Tom L. Johnson for President. Leaders of the local Public Ownership party will meet at the Lindell Hotel Thurs- day afternoon to hear the reports of the delegates to the Kansas City meeting last week, which launched an “Allied Third Party,”’ and to decide whether it is too ear- ly to begin an active campaign throughout the state. Among those who will address the meet- ing are Lee Meriwether, F. S. Kowalski and W. A. Brandenburger. “The question to be considered at the meeting,’’ said Mr. Meriwether to the Post- Dispatch Thursday morning. “is not as to whether or not a state party shall be started. throughout the state. The question is whether it is too early in the summer to send out speakers and begin campaigning. “The* movement,’ continued Mr. Meri- wether, ‘“‘is one of the real Democrats. It is against the habit that has become so prevalent of putting Republicans in office under a Democratic name. I have informa- tion which proves to me that a well-formed an has been conceived for this sort of ing throughout the state. Whether or not the so-called Democrats will dare to carry it out now I do not know.” Mr. Meriwether was asked whether a na- tional party would be started at once. “I do not know,” he replied. Just now we want to devote ourselves to conditions in this state. Undoubtedly if this habit of calling Republicans Democrats continues, our party will effect a national organiza- tion. But that is at least two years off.”’ Mr. Meriwether then said that from the standpoint of the Public Ownership party, Tom t. Johnson of Cleveland would be a more logical presidential candidate of the “Allied Third Party’ than Mr. Bryan. “Mr. Johnson,”’ he said, “has gone the whole way. He is out and out an advocate of public ownership. Mr. Bryan hasn't gone the whole way. He stands for most of our ideas, but he hasn't come out solidly for public ownership in the way that Mr. Johnson has.”’ The meeting Thursday afternoon, accord- ing to Mr. Meriwether, will be for a discus- sion of all the interests of the new’ party, city, state and national. P “It is as if you were building a house,” he said, ‘‘and got the family together to talk over the plans for it.’’ A LABOR POLICY THAT PAYS. How a Big Railway Company Looks _ After the Welfare of tls Employes. From Gunton’s Magazine. As another evidence of progress and im- proved relations between large corporations and labor the New York Central Railroad is making it a part of its policy to recognize that it has a duty toward the social and civil welfare of tis employes, as well as an interest in their economic efficiency. The excellent example set by Mr. Cornelius Vanderbilt in erecting a building for the use of the employes of the New York Central furnishing attractive quarters for social meeting, ro ee ining rooms, sleep- ing rooms for the men away from home, a library, reading room, baths, gymnasium, lectures, etc., practically free, set the pace which the company is making it a part of its policy to follow. Acco ge to a recent report these fa- cilities are being established along the whole system. An encouraging feature of this is that the company expressly recog- nizes that it is inspired to this policy for social and patriotic as well as business rea- sons. They have found that the better the conditions under which the employes live and work the better and more intelligent citizens they are and the more trustworthy and competent workmen. In other words, the rience is that the best economic pag! or a large corporation is that which oes the most for the social opportunities and personal welfare of the laborers; that the bloodless method of treating labor sole- ly as an instrument of production, out of which the maximum work should be ex- tracted and into which the minimum wealth, opportunity and _ social culture should infused, is bad business, bad economy, and ultimately results in bad statesmanship, which may react disastrous- ly upon business; in short, that it is as un- economic as it is unpatriotic.

In so far as milk inspection is effective, there can be no doubt that it @ecreases the death rate among infants and re- sults in a stronger generation of young people, who will, in turn, make better because healthier citizens. A Post-Dis- patch reader who was formerly milk inspector for Detroit, writes that in 1894 the work of his office caused a decrease of 20 per cent in the deaths of infants, the death rate falling from 2000 in 1893 to 1600 in 1894. In the work of inspecting milk, it is an excellent plan to enlist the milk dealer and dairyman as well as the milk user. This has been done in New York with good results. A Milk Commission of the Medical Society of the county of New York, in co-operation with the Chief of the Dairy Di- vision of the United States Department of Agriculture, was formed for the study and improvement of methods of hand- ling milk to be used in the city of New York. This Commis- sion has held conferences with the milk dealers, and set a standard which it is desirable to attain. Competent bacteri- o:ogists have been appointed to visit dairies, etc., and make suggestions. This work, in conjunction ,with that of the Board of Health, will, it is hoped, give New York a much better quality of milk than it has been accustomed to. St. Louis would do well to adopt some such method to arouse public interest in pure milk. Without such interest and or- ganized effort, the work of the Milk Inspector avill be desul- tory and comparatively valueless. For the sake of helpless infancy the subject should be taken up with vigor and pushed to a satisfactory conclusion. | Germany has increased her trade with the Philippines with- out sending an army there or paying anything to Spain. i > oe CALL IT THE CONCOURSE. Speaking of a name for the place in the World’s Fair known Since the Chicago Fair as ‘‘The Midway,” why not call it in the St. Louis World’s Fair, The Concourse? The concourse has a large, dignified, euphonié sound. Its meaning signifies practically the thing to be described and designated. According to Webster “concourse” means “a moving, flowing or running together,”’ which is vividly de- scriptive of the stream of people moving, flowing and running together in The Midway. But it also means, ‘an assembly; a gathering formed by a volutary or spontaneous moving or meeting In one place.”’ Again it means, “an open space where several roads or paths meet; especially, an open space in a park where several roads meet.” Now the peculiar place hitherto called the Midway will be an open place where all roads and paths meet and where an assemblage of persons of all sorts, conditions and colors will spontaneously 1un together. The choice lies between The Concourse or Freak Alley. The Concourse would sound better. -The new smoke abatement ordinance is stringent. It is Pegretted that an ordinance of any sort should be necessary to keep the city clean. Public spirit ought to be sufficient to > > i i A OIL IS CHEAPER THAN COAL. The Southern Pacific Railroad expects to save $5,000,000 a year by substituting oil for coal. Cheap fuel has played a considerable pqrt in the develop- ment of American industries and the trade conquests made by American manufacturers. Coal is plentiful and cheap, and by means of it the country has been expanced to its present huge proportions. But oil, it seems, is cheaper and another advantage is added ‘to those already enjoyed by a much-blessed people. ‘The Texas oil fields are likely to become what the Pennsy!- yania mineral devosits have been so hlong—the backbone of American industry. s , enews ¢+¢e¢0e-——- — Views of Shaw's Garden, with descriptive accounts of its fine botanica) exhibits, should be circulated in every part of he world.

Nietzsche was an eccentric German philosopher whose writ- ings have exercised a profound influence on the thought of to- day. He believed in the masterghip of the strong man who overcomes all obstacles and makes man and nature serve his will. He called this masten of men the over-man and aseribed to his conquering will and desire all the progress of mankind. Nietzsche has been called the father of modern imperialism. One of Nietzsche's theories was that morality—the code of morality—is a device of the weak for their protection against the strong. That is, the prehibitions of mwrality were devised to restrain those who are able to-take ond keep and do what they please. They are the bulwarks of the weak against the powerful. This dictum of Nietzsche’s may be applied to conventiona) clothes—they are devices to protect the unshapely against the shapely, or, in other words, 16 prevent the superior attractions of the shapely from overcoming the inferior attractions of the unshapely. : ' The dictum may be applied particularly to the coat in summer as an oppressive and uncomfortable device which the ill-built man insists all men shall wear in order that his own defects and the attractions of the well-built man may be concealed. The man who needs padding, who lets his back hump, his shoulder slunip and his stomach project, clings to the coat, regardless of tic heat. The man who stands erect with his shoulders back, who has a well-developed chest and a shapely waist is willing to stand inspection without his coat. That is the kind of man that all men not laboring under special disabilities ought to be. The exceptions are at liberty to wear any kind of a garment. But the lazy man ought not to he permitted to burden his fellowmen with a hot coat in order to conceal the physical effects of laziness. The shedding of the summer coat is a stop in the directign of physical perfegtion. The coated man represents hidebound conventionality, lazi- ness and unshapeliness. The coatless man represents freedom, and progress. The ccated man is a hot hlot on the summer landscape. The coatless man is a cool and refreshing dispenser of cheer- fulness to an overheated community. The coated man is a stick of dynamite, liable to disastrous explosion. The coatless man is a lump of ice on the fevered brow of society. Here’s to the coatless man-—the peach of the twentieth century—today’s fulfillment and tomorrow’s promise. eo ——___$_____—__ Is the St. Louls World's Fair to be held in 1903, or is the site for the show merely to be selected in that year?—Louis- ville Courier Journal.

Comfort in Church. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I am with you in your effort to bring comfort to men by making coatlessness popular. Your editorial on the subject was a capital plea. Not only should men be brave enough to discard the uncomfortable coat in hot weather at home, in office, street and pub- lic vehicle, but at religious gatherings. In- deed, it is of more importance to be in physical comfort there than elsewhere, if the moral nature be indeed higher than the rest of the man. One’s moral side cannot be reached if the physical takes up ones attention. Hence, coolness and comfort at such gatherings is vitally necessary. I am glad that one clergyman recognized this by congratulating a member of his audience on having the good sense to come to church in his shirtsleeves. EARNEST. St. Louis. Society Man’s View. , To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Your appeal for coatlessness and comfort meets a hearty response from every man of common sense. The shirt waist, or even the mere shirt, if not disfigured by s8us- penders, !s neat, graceful and comfortable. It is the very folly of conservatism to re- quire the coat in hot weather, If every man who agrees with this view would act upon his convictions hot weather would be robbed of most of its terrors. I feel sure ihat ladies will not object. At any rate those of my acquaintance do not. On the contrary, they sensibly commend ‘the coat- less condition. If two or three men of fashion can be induced to lead the band we ean have every coat in St. Louis discarded in summer. I wish you prosperity in this crusade for comfort and common sense, SOCIETY MAN. A Poor Section of Olive Street. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I want to call the attention of the proper official to the condition of Olive street from Fourth to the river. Olive street is the main thoroughfare to the levee for pedes- trians. It is used dally by tens of thou- sands of persons, and yet it is- the most disgustingly dirty street In the city. It a regular feeding place for horses during the day. It is full of litter, trash and sweepings from the various houses along the street. It is obstructed with feed box- es, planks and other articles. The side- walks are worn, erous. The eellar doors and gratings are n many places a menace to life and limb. There is a raised platfurm about 50 feet long that is rotten and dangerous for one to walk over. This is a plain statement of the condition of Olive street from Fourth to the levee. Why can't this street be kept clean, im- proved with good granitoid waiks and made safe and agreeable for the public.* Let the reform movement take hold of this matter at once.

Of course there are bad mothers-in-law as well as good, but I think the statistics given in your want ad. page showing that the mother-in-law is responsible for most of the family crime must have been made up by a joker. Here are a few facts about mothers-in-law, in their favor: The mother-in-law is not an interloper. She is not only mother-in-law to one of the married couple, but mother in fact and in blood to the other. One of the young people is still her child—the child she gave part of her life to nurture and support. She hus a claim second to none i{n nature or 680- ciety. For this she is entitled to respect and love.

Nothing less than four fiddlers. Three houses under the party. Whisky go leor, and meat and drink to all comers. As was only to be expected, a spree on such a liberal scale had been prolonged into the next afternoon. Coming on even- ing the four fiddlers found themselves at the Knockagar Cross—the parting of their ways. As was also only to be expected of fid- ders coming from a feast, their manner was effusive. It was distressing to part. They alternately cuffed and kissed each other, sang and scolded. Finally, I regret fo say, they were surrounded by two peel- ers, who in the Queee * name arrested them as disturbers of the peace of the realm, and marched them straight—or at least as vtraight as the cullar circumstances would permit—to Mr, McClane’s.

The history of wireless telegraphy would not be complete without some mention of Joseph Henry, America’s greatest scientist for it was he who first, in 1842, discovered the oscillatory character of certain elec- tric discharges, and who showed that these oscillations produced disturbances which could by suitable receivers be detected at distances of many rods and through inter- vening buildings, writes Prof. Joseph Ames in the Review of Reviews. He even ar- ranged an apparatus on this principle to the lighning discharges of distant storms. The great genius of Henry was never more apparent than in his investigation of elec- trical discharges and other oscillatory na- ture. Itisa oe testimony to the ignor- ance among Americans of their own great men that the name of Joseph Henry is not included in the 80 selected for the ‘‘Hall of Fame’’ of the nation.

"3 * ag2ee £232 Donovan's pennant chasers won another contest Wednesday, the Boston team going down to defeat and the lower rungs of the League ladder through their efforts. The vietory did not change the standing of the first four teams in the race, as both New York and Brooklyn won, while Pitts- burg did riot have to to maintain its posi- tion. All three of the teams immediately below the leaders pulled up a few pegs, and the Pirates no longer enjoy a certainty of hold- ing their enviable position. In fact, with the New Yorks hanging on surprisingly well, and the Brooklyn and Cardinal teams running like race horses, there is very little certainty of anything in the way of pen- nant possibilities. The man who has an even money wager that any of the first six teams will finish in the first flight has almost got a good bet. With the season only something more than one-third gone, and the first team but 074 ahead of the sixth, honors are very easy. The St. Louisans continue to play with dash, brilliancy and success. Wednesday they were held in the thrall of Prestidi- vag aaa Nicholls, and were allowed but six its by him. Nevertheless, they earned three runs, which anyone will admit can only result from timely, not to say lucky, hit- n the field Heidrick shone—somebody shines almost every day for the locals. It was the leader of the League batters’ turn Wednesday. His brilliant catch of cooeeee * far-driven fly saved a three- agger, and, as it turned out, a score, for the next hit was a long fly to the outfield. Poor coaching in the ninth on the part of Boston prevented a sure tie. With the score 3 to 2 Hamilton sent out a heart- breaker to right field and was foolishly coached to take third on it. He was out on good relaying. Kittredge immediately after singled, and would surely have scored the runner had the latter been less eager. Of | course it is always the play chance at that stage of the game, but from the reports it would appear that there was mo chance in connection with Hamilton's play. It was a plain cinch he was out. A team can sometimes get along fairly well on the mistakes of its opponent. 8t. Louis has won more than one game this @geason this way. Wallace made it possible for the Car- dinals to win. Wuith two timely hits he drove in three runs—all that were made. In the second, while Donovan was on sec- d, that valuable “asset’’ of the Messrs. ison, “‘Bobbie,’’ pushed out a home run, tallying two. In the seventh, after Padden had singled, Wallace again came to time and, selecting One from Mr. Nichols’ assortment of mys- yes, slammed it out for three bases. He not get home himself, Herr Kruger be- unequal to the emergency, but he sent Padden with what prov the winning n. At this stage of speculation is ig a great temptation to pause and consider what a ightmare the team escaped from when allace and Heidrick failed to og the team as was at one time eontinually bruit- about. The local team would look much e the Temple after Samson pushed the Pillars down. It certainly was a narrow @scape from baseball nonentity. Burkett @nd Donovan are all right, but take any two of the big four off the team and not Much would be left. Mr. Stanley Robison has gone into re- tirement to avY®did pertinacious fans who uld fain be informed who it is that will signed in place of Jones. He would con- r a@ great favor on the public by reap- pearing with the desired information. He states that he will not say anything for fear that other weak-kneed pitching de- partments might turns the lamps of in- VYestigation in the direction of the party or rties on whom the Messrs. Robison have eir penetrating visions fixed and filch eir legitimate spoil. If the pitch in question is so obscure as to need a search to disclose his personality ad whereabouts, his efficiency may well questioned. It will not be a National League pitcher, @nliess some manager loses his claim on nity—for there is not a team in the league t can dispense with any one of its tried lers. It is suppesed, of course, that will be inflicted with juventies this late the season, Nor is there any team in the American ‘that can afford to t with part of its Staff. Money will make people forget many nsiderations, but it is hard to figure how can purchase a single first-class man of own and tried ability. It is hard to figure Bt @ whereby one might be secured, for . Louis has no player to offer that she Can spare. The alternative is the minor leagues. ere are one or two good ones, but there so rafts of dumb ones. It Is like the | nals, with their present lucky streak, light on a gem. May it happen soon.

It is not every man who starts out to be a pugilist who can say that he has fought 12 prizefights in his life and never lost one. Charles B. Cornwall, who has attracted some local attention recently by his show- ing against Klein at the Jefferson Club and elsewhere, is one of few who own such a record. Cornwall came here from New London, lo., where he was born 18 years ago. Up to April, 1897, he never had engaged in a boxing bout. His first prizefight was April 27, 1900. pia day in the American League, whereby 4500 Baltimoreans sweltered and made empnatie remarks while waiting for the game ve- tween the Bostons and the Baltimores, scheduled for that date, to start. It appears that a mistake was made in the original schedule, and the alteration was not sufficiently called to the atten- tion of the teams of the League, for Bos- ton understood that it was to play on its home grounds at that date. At Baltimore the team and spectators waited patiently for he Bostons to arrive, while the latter were erforming a similar disagreeable task at oston. The crowd had to return disap- pointed—and all they got out of it was rain- checks. Louis team for the present season are, so far, of the highest order. Harper leads the League, with ll games won and 3 lost. Powell is second of the local staff with 8 won and 5 lost, and Sudhoff third with 6 won and 4 lost. Harper has been saved in more than one instance from what seemed sure défeats by being withdrawn from the game and fe- laced by Powell. Sudhoff has had hard uck in losing two or three close gamés. Two had every mark of victory about thern. Powell is in better form than ever be- fore, and has been pitching better ball than either Harper or Sudhoff lately. Thursday’s Fair Grounds Entries.

SAN FRANCISCO, June Sdna Wal- | lace Hopper has been confined to her bed ever since she arrived here, and her phy- sician permits her to see no one. | The bellfef that she inherits, through her mother, wealth of Alexander Dunsmuir, proves to be a mistaken one. When Alex- ;} ander Dunsmuir died he left a_ will be- | gueathing to his brother, James Dunsmuir, Under it the widow re- ceived nothing, but it was apparently not his intention to leave his widow unprovided for, however, for in his lifetime he had al- ready given her property sufficient to make her amply comfortable. Chief among these gifts was the Dunsmuir place at San Leander, cosisting of 315 acres of foothill land. In addition to this James Dunsmutr, perhaps apprehensive of a contest, gave the widow a written agreement to pay to her out of the estate $25,000 a year, but this annuity terminated with Mrs. Dunsmuir’s death. COMMERCIAL FIGHT AHEAD. Dr. Von Peez Wants Europe to Com- bine Against This Country. WASHINGTON, Jtne 27.—Consul Mahin of Reichenberg, Austria, has sent to the state department an article recently con- tributed to the Munich Allegemein Zeitung by Dr. Alexander Von Peez under the ti- , “The Struggie for Industrial Suprem- acy.” After reviewing the progress of England and Germany in commerce and manufac- tures, Dr. Von Peez passes to the United States, ‘rising in the new world with sin- ister rapidity.’’ He says, among other things: “The three competing countries now suf- fer from obstacles which hinder their free movement. Germany has China, England has the Transvaal, America the Philip- pines. IF‘rom appearance the United States will be the first to throw off its burden. After that country shall be free from the Philippine war, its industrial advance upon Europe will be fully manifested.”’ Further on Dr. Peez says: “What should first be done in defense is to follow the example, in regard to tar- iffs and trade treaties, which the United States has set for us. At the European seashore (England is included herein) a tariff should be established counter to that of the Union, while the European nations 97 re ee |should arrange tariffs touching each other P.

AN OLD ROMANCE REVIVED Miss McPherson Claims That Her Step- mother’s Property, Left by Her Father, Is Unlawfully Withheld. Jessie May McPherson of Rochester, N. Y.. who has brought suit to compe! the Mississippi Valley Trust Co. to deliver to her $20,000 in bonds and diamonds belonging to the estate of her stepmother, the late Mrs. Mary B. McPherson of St. Louis, has set up a novel claim in the United States Circuit Court. Miss McPherson says that she is the svle ewner of the property which she believes is being unlawfully withheld by the trust . any on the grounds that her father, villiam McPherson, an attorney of Roch- ester, has assigned all his right of inher- itance, under the laws of the state of New ork, to her. Sonn R. Meyers, attorney for Horace B. locke, an engineer residing at 4416 North Twenty-first street, and William C. Locke of Worcester, Mass., the brothers of the deceased, says that he is informed that Miss McPherson will come into court and ask for the disputed property as assignee. The suit is the dry-as-dust climax of a tender romance that filled the last nine months of Mrs. McPherson's life. For W years she had resided in St. Lovis as the wife of Maj. McVane, a retired officer of the United States Army. Maj. McVane was the distant cousin of William McPherson of Rochester. There was an early attachment but they drifted apart. After the death of Maj. McVane In St. Louts, some time prior to 1894, the dis- tant cousin came to St. Louis from Roch- ester and pressed his suit of long ago. Aged Lovers ‘ Were Married. The widow accepted him, and they were married here at an advanced period of their lives, early in thé year 1894. Miss McPher- son became ill shortly after the marriage. 4 t her in the care of The elderly groom lef Weet Belle place and started for Rochester to prepare their new home. Mrs. McPherson was destined never to see her new home, for while her husband and stepdaughter, Miss May McPherson, the present litigant, were in the midst of the preparations there came the news of the death of the bride. Mr. McPherson's attachment for his wife and the tokens of her personal tastes was such that he entered suit to recover only that portion of her property which included her personal property, consisting of mining stocks, which had depreciated, and espe- cially the jewelry and other family heilr- looms. klis claim on the property was based on the laws of New York, which gave him the right to claim that his domicile was her doinicile and therefore, although she had never actually occupied it, her property should revert to him. The brothers of the deceased set up the claim that undef the laws of Missouri, this state having been her home for many years, and she never having left here after mar- riage, her property descended to her next of kin, there having been no children. The supreme court of the state upheld this view of the case and a final settle- ment was ordered in 1897. The estate was just about to be apvortioned among the —e when Miss McPherson brought her Suit.

Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch. LONDON, June 27.—Vegetarianism as a cure for drunkenness is the theory the In- ternational Vegetarian Congress, which opened tonight in London, will submit to the world's tipplers. The vegetarians as- sert that experiments made during the last three months at the Women’s Inéebriate Home at Torquay have demonstrated that @ vegetable diet is an absolute destroyer of the liquor habit. Forty inmates of the institution, who entered confirmed drunk- ards, became total abstainers as a result of their daily fare, wherein flesh and fowi had no place. Further testimony along the same line will be presented to the cungress by Bram- well Booth, commander of the social branch of the Salvation Army. Mr. Booth says that inebriety among the London slum population has declined steadily and per- manently wherever the people have been weaned from meat. The Salvationists will henceforth adopt vegetarianism as a fixed feature of their temperance work. Reports will also be tendered the con- gress showing that vegetable diet is gain- ing favor in the world of athletes. Pro- fessor Eustace H. Miles, head of the phy- sical culture department at Cambridge, and amateur tennis champion of Great Britain, will introdute statistics to prove that the stoutest brawn thrives on the products of the soil. Dr. Kenneth Harris, a Scotch physician of 80 years, will describe a 400-mile tri- cycle ride-that he has just completed from nad’s End to Edinburgh without tasting meat. Dr. J. H. Kellogg, Battle Creek, Mich.., will read a paper to the congress detail- ing the growth of the “health food’’ move- ment in the United States. . Arnold F. Hillis, the London millionaire, the International Vegetarian “Vegetarianism is attaining 8 aera proportions the world over. uch notables as Count Leo Tolstoi, Sarah Grand, Thomas Edison and Annie Besant are types of our adherents. “The movement in America, like many other moral reform schemes in that country, is gradually falling into the hands of companies and syndicates. This is likely to be the result of the more general adop- tion of our principles by business people. “Still the ethical side is flourishing, es- y in New York, Chicago, San Fren- cisco and Philadelphia.

ATTRACTED BY HIS DAUGHTER Looked So Much Like His Wife That He Followed Her Home Where the Truth Was Made Known. Syecial to the Post-Dispatch. JOPLIN, Mo., June 27.—wenty years ago John Doerr disappeared from his home in a little Illinois . village, leaving a bride to whom he had Been. married ‘only a month, and during all those years nothing was ever heard of him. He disappeared as completely as if the earth hod swallowed him. Yesterday Doerr and his wife met in this city. Twenty years ago Mary Wilson was one of the most popular young ladies in the vill- age in which she lived; she had suitors by the score and could have had most any of the young men of her home town for a husband, but Johr Doerr, a@ young dry goods clerk, was her choice, and one day in June, 1881, they were married. They went to a home of their own and for a month their married life was a dream of happi- ness. But the young bride’s happiness came to an abrupt ending one day when the husband-lover failed to come home. Doerr left her one morning ostensibly to go to his work, but he failed to return. Mrs. Doerr sat up all night awaiting him but she wait- ed in vain. Before a year had passed Mrs. Doerr, who returned to her parents, became the mother of one of the brightest of girl ba- bies, and upon the new arrival was be- stowed all of the mother’s love. Her par- ents died within the next few years, and, being the only child, Mrs. Doerr was left in possession of a large farm. Three years later she sold the farm and with her daugh- ter moved to this city, where she has been very successful. The baby of 19 years ago is-now a most beautiful and accomplished young woman, She had never seen her father, but her mother had often spoken of him and they had knelt together in prayer for him many times. Mrs. Doerr always felt that some day her husband would return, and .yester- day their prayer was answered. ‘hen Doerr left his bride twenty years ago he went directly to the California gold fields, hoping to become rich in a few weeks and then return to his bride: but months and A pa went ~~ and still Doerr was poor. e kept up his courage and after many years of hard toil he made a rich strike. He had then been away from his wife 15 years, but he had worked so hard that the years seemed only like days to him. He went to the little I'linois village where he expected to find his wife, but she was not there and nobody seemed to know where she was. Doerr then began a hunt for her. Doerr was were. in Main street here a ggg morning when he passed a young ady who looked so much like his girl- wife of 20 years o that he could scarce- ly control himself. Surely that waa. not his wife, he theught, and yet the resem- blance was so great he could not help [ol- lowing her. She entered a street car and Doerr occupied a seat just opposite her. The young ladv noticed that he scarcely took his eyes off of her, and she became very restless. When she left the car Doerr also left, and followed her to her home. After she had entered he asked some of the neighbors who lived there and was as- tonish to hear: “Mrs. Doerr and her daughter.” Doerr did not walk to the gate, but bounded over the fence and ra - Mrs. Doerr came to the door, and there he stood before his sweetheart and wife whom he had not seen for a score of years. The recognition was mutual. Miss Doerr appeared upon the scene, and was surprised to find her mother in the embrace of a stranger. She was told that the stranger was her father, and then there were more embraces, kisses and tears. Explanations followed and Mr. and Mrs. ohn rr and their ea, will leave in a few days for Californ COFFEE SCALDS FATAL. Baby Daughter of lL. 8. Doyle Dies From Spilling Hot Liquid Over Her. Edith P.

FOUR YEARS IN ON REMARKABLE SCHOOL RECORD OF A RUSSIAN GIRL. COULD NOT SPEAK ENGLISH Yet She Started to School in Boston and Graduated the Same Year. Special to the Post-Dispatch. BOSTON, June 27.—At thé Wells gram- mar school graduation exercises today the public learned of a remarkable achievement by a bright-eyed little Russian girl named Tyna Helman. She entered the school last fall not know- ing one word of English. She could speak a little French and Spanish and her own native tongue fluently. Bhe was placed in the lowest grade in the school, but in a few weeks her teacher thought she would gain more in the next higher grade. At- tention was shortly called to her again in this grade, and from one advancement to another she went, until last December her teacher said: “I do not know that she can be grad- uated, but I think she would receive more benetit from the highest grade,’’ and the principal advanced her. When it came time for the last examina- tions and the diploma list was made out, the name of this little girl who entered school in the fall in the lowest grade was among the list of graduates, and with hon- or, too. Thus she made the four years’ course in one. She wiil enter the girls’ Latin school next fail, and expects to go to college after that.

Seprial to the Post-Dispatch. DERBY, Conn., June 27.—Burton Griffin; 30 years old, died today in agony from a kissing bug’s bite. Two weeks ago Griffin felt a stinging sen- Sation on his arm while at work at the Warrell foundry. A drop of blood appeared and he saw a large black bug fiy slowly away. Next day Griffn became ill and his arm began to sweil. Griffn was an athlete and in robust health when bitten. Workmen believe the bug is still in the foundry, and it is with difficulty they can beepersuaded to stay there. A piece of soot floating. through the room drives them into a panic. FATAL HOTEL FIRE. Several Lives Probably Lost in the Flames at Kern, Cal. BAKERSFIELD, Cal., June 27.—The Cen- tral Hotel in Kern, about a mile east of here, caught fire this morning and before the flames were subdued one life is known to have been lost and others missing. Ed Tibbetts, a fireman, had his skull crushed. The fire is eapoenes to have started from the explosion of a lamp in one of the rooms. In a moment all ways of escape were cut of by walls of flames. One of the dead bodies, burned to a crisp, was found. It was identified as George Clark, a black- smith helper tin the Southern Pacific shops. John P. Thornton was badly burned about the body. His condition is critical. I. C. Burniger, who has just returned from the Philippines and stopped at the hotel, has not as yet been located and it is thought that he, too, perished in the flames.

DIED WITHOUT A PHYSICIAN She Succumbed to Disease Despite El- ders’ Prayers, Leaving Wealth to Dowie. CHICAGO, June’ 29.—The pleadings of a sister to forsake the Dowie faith and seek health and life’in & more congenial clime availed nothing wgainst the influence the general overseer Sf the Christian CatHolic Church had overMiss Josephine Frost whose home was in Arizona, and she die Wednesday night,“as many others of the cult have died—without medical attendance —at 10 Sixteenth street, from consumption. Miss Frost is reported to have been pos- sessed of considerable money and property and it is said that in a will she made she left it all to Zion. Miss Frost was 34 years old and up to two years ago resided with her married sister, a Mrs. Adams, in Arizona. When she found she was afflicted with consump- tion she made up her mind to come to Chi- cago and trust her future to the prayers of Dowie and his followers. At first she was installed in Zion home at Twelfth street and Michigan avenue, where she was under the care of Dowle, but later she moved to a boarding house at 14 Sixteenth street. After being there a short time she took up her abode in the boarding house conducted by Mrs. Ella Caldwell, a follow- er of Dowie, at 10 Sixteenth street, and it was there that she died. When asked if Miss Frost had been at- tended by a physician Mrs. Caldwell said: “She died without medical attendance, for if it had been otherwise she would have been possessed of the devil. Mrs. Cook was continually at her side and prayed for her recovery.”’ Mrs. Cook ig One of the Dowileite nurses and was the one who was assigned to look after Miss Frost. It is said that a short time before the woman died Deacon Speich- er visited the nurse and prayed with her. As is the custom when death claims a Dowieite, no badge of mourning was dis- played at the house, and the first intima- tion the neighbors had that Miss Frost was dead was when was backed up to the door shortly befure noon and the bedy was taken away. The ern avenue, who has Dowle to take charge of the bodies of dead Zionites, and who, on several occasions, has clashed with the health department because a death certificate. Mrs. A. Hennis, with whom Miss Frost boarded for seven months after leaving Zion home, said yesterday that the woman had received many letters from Mrs. Ad- ams, who is opposed to Dowle’s teachings and who implored her sister to seek relief for -her malady elsewhere. In one of these letters, Mrs. Hennis sald, Mrs. Adams told her sister that she was going to Mexico on a pleasure trip and asked her to join her there. Miss Frost, however, was a stanch supporter of Dr. Dowie and her faith in him could not be shaken. For two years the dread disease was per- mitted to sap her vitality without any ef- fort to check its progress. excepting the puree of Dowie, the e'ders and Mrs. Cook ut Miss Frost never complained and finally died, still strong in her faith. Not Worried at Ordifiance. Samuel W. Packard, who is Dr. Dowie’s legal adviser, does not feel much concern over the ordinance introduced by Alder- man Rector in the city council Monday night, which is designed to place Zion home and other Dowle institutions where the sick and injured are received under police regulation. Mr. Packard yesterday gave it as his opinion that the ordinance would have the result of advertising Dowle ex- souatvely and that it would end there. He “The ordinance wil) call people's atten- tion to Dr. Dowle and his work and they will become interested in him. As a co sequence, they will go to hear him, their interest will grow and finally they will be- come followers of Zion. I do not think it would be becoming in me to discuss the legality of the proposed ordinance at this time. It will be time enough for me to do that when I am called upon to do so, if that time shall ever come.”’ Militiamen Will Shoot More. Col. John I.
