Freeman, wanted in Menom- inee, Mich., on charges of forgery and jumping a bond for $8500, passed through St. Louis Thursday morning in charge of a Michigan sheriff and an operative of the Pinkerton Detective Agency. Sheriff Stiles stated that his prisoner would be placed on trial immediately ttpon his arrival in Menominee, where a special session of the criminal court had been called in anticipation of Freeman's return. The story of this fugitive’s capture re- veals strikingly the methods of modern sleuths in apprehending offenders against the law. In 1897 Freeman was the agent in Me- nominee for a Chicago limber firm. The company found his accounts short to the amount of $30,000 and he was discharged. Freeman went to Fortland, Ore., and while there the lumber concern, after in- vestigating his books, determined to arrest him on a charge of forgery. The specific accusation was having ut- tered a false note for $6000 to cover the_al- leged inspection of lumber. Freeman could not be found in Oregon, but after a long search Sheriff Stiles lo- cated him in Chicago, lHving under the name of John Peterson. His bond in Menominee was fixed at $8500. He left Michigan before his case came ‘to trial, and the Pinkerton agency was in- structed to find him. The Chicago agency traced -him to S8t. Louis, where the trail was taken up by local operatives. Supt. Murphy detailed Detective Schu- macher on the case. Through several de- scriptions and photographs it was learned that Freeman passed into Mexico over a road out of St. Isouls. On the border his destination was fixed at Orizaba, Mexico. Was Living Under An Assumed Name. Schumacher found Freeman at the Hotel de France, living under the name of E. A. Norton. The detective represented himself ‘to bea fugitive from justice, and won the Michigan man's friendship and confidence. Freeman had lost heavily at the gaming tables and told his new friend that he was compelled to go to Vera Cruz to raise some money. This was ecommunicated to the lo- cal office, who in turn notified the Michi- gan authorities. Prosecuting Attorney Mills of Menominee went to Washington with the governor's warrant for extradition papers and @ request that the Mexican government arrest Freeman, ali , On Feb. it, Sheriff - ) Busy. ~* ~~ or TO-DAY w MAE K ANS sP, , ahaa . sell ¥ e's é¢ Department of the Lakes Col. sent to Port Chalmette. oT army.

HARRISBURG, Pa., April 10.~" the ag- ricuiture of Porto Kico will take lowest rank of the possersions under the contrui of the United States for many years. The introduction, however, of American ma- chinery and American methods is already visibie and must each year make a better showing.”’ This statement was made by Col. Thomas J.

Steps in this direction have al- ready been “taken by several companies growing trees for sale, and the eiftect will soon be visible in the improved fruit which will be shipped north. “The production of early tomatoes, and of early fruit generally; has not thus far proven profitable, mainly on account of the ravages of the ‘changer,’ a species of mole-cricket, which cuts the tops during the night and devours the roots during the daytime, combining the damaging powers of both the mole and the cricket. Thus far. no check has been found for the insect, but the indications are that thorough and frequent cultization will+be found to véry much decrease its destructive qualities. In a number of cases 70 per cent of the tomato plants have been destroyed in 24 hours, thus turning a possible. profit into a positive loss, “Two crops of potatoes can readily be produced in a season, although they have not thus far proven profitable on account of the changer. The indications are that at some ‘time in the future Porto Rico will compete with Bermuda in the production of early potatoes for northern eae Wheat and other ains are not cuitivated at all, and the flour used is imported at great cost. It is said the soil and climate are not suitable for grain pro- _duction—the truth is that, under Spanish ' rule, the natives were discouraged from producing anything that the parent country could furnish at a profit. Hence fruits were roduced for shipment, and -were paid for ‘vy flour_exporte from other countries. “This Spanish policy of compelling the 3 Porto Ricans to ney of Spain is clearly vis- n ible in all of the industries of the island, and the natives do not yet seem to realize that ram 2 other policy is either possible, racticable or profitable.

Gardener Says the Army Is Hostile to Civil Gov- ernment, SOLDIERS TORTURE NATIVES MILITARY POLICY IS TO TREAT ALL FILIPINOS AS ENEMIES. Harsh Treatment, Says the Governor, Has Eradicated the Friendly At- titude Once Shown by the People to Americans. WASHINGTON, April 1°.—When the #en- ate committe® on the Philippines met today Senator _Lodge. chaliman of the committee, laid before the committee the report of Maj. Cornelius Gardener, civil governor of the Philippine province of Tayabas, to which reference was made by Gen. Miles in his eorresponderice with Secretary Roct. This repoct had been withhcid. and this caused the adoption of a resolution at the jast meeting of the coinmiltees, requesting the secretary of war to send the report to the committee. The repert is dated Dec. 16. 1991. Gov. Gardener wer in le nghty has heen done, and then recommends that the operations " ental the insurgents should be by a force of natives. He has traveled all over the province with no other esco"t than natives. In another recommendation he‘says: “As civil governor, I feel it my ditty to say that it is my firm corviction that the United States troops should at the earliest opportu- nity be concentrated in one or two garri- sons, if it is thoueht desirable that the good sentiment and loyalty that formerly existed to the United States among the peopic of this province should be conserved and encouraged. Enemies Made of All Natives. “Being in close touch with the people, having visited all the pueblos one or more times, having lived with them in their homes, I know that such a sentiment once existed. “Of late, by reason of: the conduct of the troops such as the extensive burning of the barrieos, in trying to lay waste to the country, so that the insurgents cannot oc- cupy it, the tor:.uring of raiives by £o0-called water-cure and other methods, in order tu obtain information, the harsh treatment of natives generally, and the failure of inex- perienced lately appointed lieutenants com- manding posts to distinguish between those who are friendly and those unfriendly ard to treat every native as if he were, whether or no, an insurrecto at heart. this favorable eentiment above referred to is being fast destroyed and a deep hatred toward us en- rendered. If these things need be done they had test be done by native troops, so that the people of the United States wiil not be credited therewith. Sowing Seed of ¢ Perpetual War. “Almost withcut exception, sold'ers. and also many officers, refer to natives in thcir presence as ‘niggers.’ and na-ives are be- ginning to understand what the word ‘nig- ger’ means. “The course now being pursued in this province ana in the provinces of Batanga Laguna and Samar is, in my opinion, sow- ing seeds for a verpetual revolution against us hereafter when a good opportunity of- fers. .Under present conditions the ite ical situa lon in this province is flowy retrograding, and the American sentiment is decreasing, and we are daily making permanent enemies. “In the course above referred to, and in it detall what troops prop- erty of those natives who are insurgents or insurgenm ympathizers, and the propery of those who heretofore have risked their ‘ives by being loyal to the United States and giving us information against their countrymen in arms. Often every house in a barrio Is butned. “In my opinion the small/ number of ir- reconcillable insurgents still in arms, al- though admittedly difficult to catch. does not justify the means employed, especially when taking into consideration the suffer- ing that must be undergone by the inno- cent and its effect upon the relations with these people. “The work of the Philippine commission and the lawae that have been enacted by it are evervwho-re favorably commented on hy the natives. The efforts being made for the genera] education of the people are appreciated by all. The provincial gov- ernment and the municipal governments established are slowly bring!ine order out of chaos and anarchy, and, there begins to be visible everywhere in this province progress and prosperity. True lovalty and contentment can onuly come under a be- nign civil government. Army Hostile to Civil Government. “The attitude of the army, thereby mean- ing most of its officers and soidiers, is, however, decidedly hostile to the provin- cial and municipal government in this pro- vince, and to civil government in these is- lands in general. “In Manila especially, it is intensely so, even among the higher officers. The work of the commission in the establishment of provincial governments is ridiculed even in presence of the natives. It is openly stated that the army should remain in charge of the next twenty years. ‘Outrages committed by soldiers against natives in an organized municipality and province, when reported by the President or governor, to the military author ties, are often not punished. This, in my opinion, ' is unfortunate, because loyal natives be- gin to fear that the local self-government promised them, will not last long and that any slight disturbance in a province mav at any iime be made the pretext to again place it under military rule, and this is- just a thing the insurgents at heart most de- sire, “It has been stated that a Filipino or an Oriental does not appreciate just or kindly treatment, and that he considers it an evi- dence of weakness, and. that severe and harsh measures are the only ones «hat are ermanently effective with Filipinos. I ave found that just and kind treatment, uniform and continued, is the only way by which these people can become our friends and satisfied with United States sover- eignty. Superior to People of Mexico. “Having been stationed six years on the Rio Grande, I am well acquainted with the natives of the State of Tamaulipas, Mexico, and while stationed in the province of Santa Clara, Cuba, I visited every town in that rovinee and was able to observe the intel- igence and education there. I believe that the neople of Tayabas province are in every way superior in education, intelli- gence, morals and civilization to the people of Tamauli or Santa Clara. “As an officer of the army I regret that my duty as civil governor of this province impels me *o state the attitude of the ma- jority of my fellow officers toward civil government m thése islands and its effect on the peonvie, but I feel that the interests of the government involved and the future of these people, for whose welfare we are responsible, are of such vast importance that 4 Ought to report things as I see and know a in order that my civil superiors may le j Riyal i nd to order what the situ- ation demands, With the report ie a v of a letter by Gen.

SNYDER GIVES $20,000 BOND ‘Charles E. Gutke, as trustee. certain prop- Judge Says It May Not Re- ‘main at That Figure. SNYDER CLOSELY QUESTIONED DECLARED HE IS NOT WORTH 7’ MORE THAN $25,000 NOW. Jurist Had Stenographer Take Down Defendant’s Statements and Re- marked That Security Was Too Small—Attorneys Signed Bond. When Robert M. Snyder and his attor- neys, Morton Jourdan and H. 8. Priest, appeared in Judge Ryan’s court at 10:30 o'ciock ‘Thursday morning to execute a new bond they were greeted with a surprise. Before they had .a chance to tender their new bond Judge Ryan called Snyder be- fore the bench, and said that he desired to question him as to his ability to furnish bond. The court asked the stenographer to make shorthand notes of the questions and answers. “The reason I do this, Mr. Snyder,’’ said Judge Ryan. “is that I am by no means Satisfied with the amount of $25,000 bond in your case. I think it ought to be a very much larger bond.” “But, your honor,”’ said Attorney Morton Jcurdan, “‘we understood you to fix the bend at $2N,00v."’ “ft am aware that you are justified in thinking that,’’ replied the court impertur- bably, “but I now think this bond too small. it is only fair that the defendant should give a bond in a sum commensurate With his ability to furnish bond.” “1 do net understand, judge, whether you mean what | am worth personally or What amount my friends could do for me,” da Mr. Snyder. “We will hear from you on both points. Your own worth and what your friends will do for you, will both be taken into con- _ “Well, 1am not werth not to exceed $235,- ' @0 at the present time,” said Mr. Snyder, and his voice was low and tremulous. ‘“‘As for what my. fricnds will do for me at the present time I cannot state.” _ “Well, in view of the sworn statement of Mr. Snyder, I will not increase the bond "Just at this time. I will accept the bond for ; ‘, understand, gentlemen, I will ; long I will permit the bond | 88 remain at that figure.” The bond was then presented in open It was signed by Snyder and by At- | sre Jourdan and Priest.

In his address asking Judge Ryan to | make this order. Mr. Folk stated it had been) definitely determined that Kratz had exe-| cuted three deeds of trust, conveying to erties to indemnify Gottleib Eyerminn from loss. In the event that Kratz defaulted on the bond. The fact that Kratz had jumped his bond, and is now a fugitive from justice. Mr. Falk said, warranted the issuance of the or- der. In the event that Kratz should be lovated and should be brought back for trial, these papers would be vital evidence against Kratz. udge Ryan took the view of Mr. Folk and jssued the order, making it returnable Fridavy morning. FOLK WANTS HIGH BONDS Would Have All Persons Charged With “Boodling”’ Give $50,000 Surety for Appearance. Circuit Attorney Folk announced to both Judges Ryan and Douglas Thursday morn- ing that he would ask for increased bond in the cases of all men indicted in connec- tion with the municipal bribery investiga- tions. He said the bonds so far executed had not proven of sufficient sums, and he would | ask that the bonds in all cases be increased. Mr. Folk has asked that the Snyder bond be made %50,09%. and it is said that he will ask for this bond in each case. Counsel tor defense will be notified of the circuit attorney's intentions and Judges Ryan and Doug as, sitting jointly, will hear the arguments of counsel! and will pass on the question.

Gecretary Hitchcock and Senator Cock- rell Work in Interest of St. Louis Merchants and Manufacturers and Government Indian Agencies. The Indian supply warehouse in St. Leuls.for which ‘he Business Men’s League Mas been working for two years, will be established very soon, a letter to this ef- fect having been received from Secretary gp Interior I. A. Hitchcock this morn- An appropriation of $10,000 for this pur- pose bas been inserted in the pending In- dian appropriation bill. This news will greatly gretty the merchants of St. Louis, who will, by the establishment of tnis warebouse here, be able to compete with the merchants of New York and Chicago for the enormous business of supplying merchandise of all kinds for the Indisn agencies. * WORK BEGAN IN 1900. In June, 1900, Secretary Hitchcock held a conference in St. Louis with President C. P. Walbridge, Corwin H. Spencer, Gustav J. Meyer, R. W. BShapleigh, J. E. Smith and o members of the :] ue consti- teen | a special committee which had been appointed to go into the subject thorough- ly with the secretary and show him that it would be to the advantage of the gov- ernment as wel] as St. Louis to establish a warehouse in Louis and receive vids and samples here for the Indian supplies. The conditions at that time were not fa- vorable to a change in the existing ay of receiving proposals, and the St. uils bidders one by one withdrew from compe- business with reluctance, feeling that’ they could not do themselves justice in bidding and submitting samples either in Chicago or New York. The com- mittee of the Business Men’s League, how- ever, which had this matter in charge, did not lose hope and got together figures showing dhat the government would save money by opening a warehouse in St. Louis in addition to the ones already established. These were submitted to Secretary Hitch- cock, HITCHCOCK INTERESTED. When Secretary Hitchcock was in 8t. Louls a few weeks ago the executive com- mittee of the league, through Rocvetary Saunders, took up the matter afresh wit him. Mr. Charles Nagel, whose relations with the secretary are intimate, took an ef- fective interest in the matter, and made a clear presentation of the situation to the secretary. In Congress also Senator Cock- fell gave active attention to the matter f@nd the result is that when the next adver- tisements for Ponape de 3 proposals for Jn- jan supgiles are published by the Indian urea Louis will be named with Chi- go and New York as one of the places where bids will be received and samples submitted. ST. LOUIS WILL GET TRADE. » The secretary of the Business Men’s % e maid today: “This appropriation of $10,000 for the establishment of a ware- house in St. Louis will mean that this city will hereafter supply the Indian agencies ost of the boots and shoes, dry goods, hardware, groceries and drugs use for the me-nbers of the league who are bidder ay these supplies know that when they can bid and submit samples here they can un- jersell for any point of delivery any of the ouses in any other large city. We all Soy appreciative of the interest Secretary tchcock and Senator Cockrell have taken in this matter and we know that the gov- ernment will profit by the step. We regard the establishment of this warehouse here as one of the most ratisfacto accomplish- ments for the business of St. uis that has come about in years.’’ BOY TRAVELING FAR BY SHINING SHOES WILLIAM CHEEK, 14, GOING 3000 | MILES TO JOIN PARENTS.

Besides, there’ are the work in crafts undertaken by the ‘Wednesday Club, ithe activity of the Englemann Club and the societies big and littlo that are bent upon exalting the pubiie, ‘municipal tife ‘and creating a higher standard of taste. These are, indead, public not private interests and their. use is to broaden and decpen the character of every citizen, helping him to realize his importance not only as a private person, but as a member of society with public interests inseparable from the community. ‘ The material welfare of St. Louis Is assured. It needs pede to emphasize tho uses of a higher culture and more humane spirit to “bring the city up to the standard of the most exacting re- quirement. There are gratifying signs of an awakening in 8t.

The public is not in a very good temper with the monopoly. Packing is a sequel of boodlihg, and the people of St. Louis will easily recognize the relation between the two. a i os 4 NO COMPETITIVE PRISON INDUSTRIES. The protest of the St. Louls Manufacturers’ Association against the suggested establishing of a chair or carriage factory in the Missouri penitentiary is well taken. If the penitentiary officers have not decided against a new factory they should promptly come to this decision. The expansion of prison {ndustries in competition with outside industrics is not a wise policy. On the contrary, prison industries should never be permitted to compete with outside industries employing free, well-paid labor. The state should never destroy, but should encourage the industries of its citizens. It should never force the employer of free labor to compete with the em- ployer of cheap convict contract labor. It is unjust to the em- ployers and the workingmen. [t is @ policy tpat strikes at the prosperity of the commonwealth. The truth is, the contract system in penitentiaries is not de- fensible. The convicts should be kept employed by the state at noncompetitive labor for the benefit of the state alone. er?0 If Gen. Smith had to be transferred to the United States to. keep him from Weylerizing the Filipinos,.there can be no doubt that some strenuous work has been done in our Asiatic islands. = = * EXCHANGE FOR !DEAS AND INFORMATION. The daily column of Letters From the People in the: Post-Dis- patch is becoming In large measure an exchange for ideas and in- formation. It is not merely a “‘kick"’ column, though complaints that: deal with some form of public wrong form part of its daily materia].. The righting of wrongs often follows publicity, and it is a public service to make public such complaints. No less important, however, is the opportunity afforded readers to spread abroad new ideas or discuss old ones; to ask and ‘ob- tain advice; to urge municipal and social reform; to suggest new movements and improvements and to obtain information on any subject from those who may be better informed. _ In all these ways the Post-Dispatch letter-writers have found help, comfort, amusement or information. The subjects covered ‘are only ‘limited by the numbor of writers and the space that can Only on qtlestions of personal interest, attacks on in- dividuals, advice that should be given by lawyers or doctors and discussions that would arouse bitter religious or political ani- mosity is the column closed. Keeping this in mind, readers can use it in all the ways above indicated, and when so used it will be found a mine of wealth. It is not too much to say that this opportunity of making contact with our fellow men is one of the most valuable that modern invention and enterprise have given the world. But remember to write as briefly as ;ossible. Be concise. _—_ Postmaster Baumhoff’s lecture, “A Trip Through the Postof- fice,"’ might be illustrated with a snap shot of a citizen mount- ing a stepladder to get his newspaper mail and raining the pack- ages on the floor until he can come down to pick them up. Such a picture:might hasten our Uncle Samuel in providing St. Louis with that much-needed new postoffice building. The indemnity taxation of the Chinese is so heavy that Krupp guns have to be brought to: bear on them to collect it.. Many thousands are said to be in revolt. Shooting and taxing him, however, will not be likely to bring John to an early knowledge of Western civilization. i = = = Every time an American statesman looks upon the statue of Rochambeau in Washington he will be reminded that we sold mules to the British in the Boer war instead of following the Rochambeau preccdent of going to the aid: of a struggling re- public. = = = Five Smiths in the House voted against consideration of the Cuban reciprocity bill. If so many Smiths have already forgot- ten the last utterances of President McKinley, how many other people must haves failed to remember them? The advice of an Amsterdam merchant to Americans to export flour rather than wheat seems to be good. As the best flour is exported from St. Louis, the expansion of the American flour trade must benefit this city. The recipes for ‘vegetarian soup . which have been published in the Post-Dispatch will doubtless interest all good housekeepers. The production of delicious soups without meat is possible and is well worth attention. “Bach for all and all for each,’ gays Edward Everett Hale. But how could we havé great trusts and territoria] expansion if each was for all and all were for each? = — * POST-DISPATCH SNAP SHOTS. Would East St. Louis be less saintly under any other name? The Audubon Society will doubtless note that Gov. Yates is down on round robins. The gubernatorial chair of California will be seriously strained if Shafter should drop into it. If the British can see the Boer whiskers what matters it’ how many Dutchmen wear British uniforms? As the March lamb did not put tn an appearance this year,. how is it that the wool market is reported tame and unsatisfactory? The market report that “new onions are weak” is misleading. New onions are not so strong as old ones, but no onion is ever “weak. ) One very cautious lady prepares for burglars by keeping the gas burning all night and placing a bell and a whistle within reach. A New England journal speaks of George H. Williams as hav- ing been “‘chief justice of Oregon fn 185."’ Hé must certainly have been a “big Indian” in that early day. French women are declaring that men represent less than half the sum total of human intelligence. When we consider the many masculine follies this assertion of the French women almost seems to be true. A good many people would “rubber” to see an embalming with the new fluid that gives a body the consistency of vulcanized rubber. The American mummy may become as interesting to the nations of the future as is the Egyptian article to nations of the present day. a ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS. , a ’ A. 1D.

BASS DRUMMER IS IT. “In organizing a.band from the raw ma- terial, the instructor has to consider each member's natura] qualifications. All want to play the B-flat cornet, but not every- body has the embouchere, the lip for it, and it is better to be a good man on some less prominent horn than to be a failure in a leading part. There is an instrument for every kind of lip, and if wofst comes to worst there !s the alto horn. I believe I could play the aito horn myself with a little practice. “Perhaps the most important thing for the instructor to bear in mind for the first few months is: Make much of the bass d4rummer. All the other players have tuo be taught how to make a tone, how to play the scales, how to do the simplest ‘things in music, but the bass drum has no particular pitch, though it is always writ- ten on C, second line of the bass clef, and all the technique necessary is to hit the ‘batter head not in the middle, but about a third from the n.argin. This is just why the instructor must not neglect the bass drummer lest he say to himself: “Where do I come in? I’ve paid in my share, and I’ve done my part in organizing the band. The other fellows get all the instruction and I get nothing. I want my money back. I’m going to quit.’ Now, the bass drum is a very importaat instrument in a band. It keeps the iime. It is not so easy to play as it looks to be, and the man with the necessary ease of rhythm is not one to be let go of in a hurry..In the Amicitia play together once !n a week for the pure joy of it, the bass drummer is a million- aire, I am told, and takes a lot of pleas- ure in his performance.”—Harvey Suthe,- land in Ainslee's Magazine for April.

He was my friend, faithful and just to me: But Brutus says he was ambitious; And Brutus is an honorable man. He hath brought many captives home to Rome, Whose ransoms did the general coffers fill.

To two boys, fellow pupils in the Stoddard School, who accompanied him as far as Manchester, St. Louls County, young Smith held out the enticing prospect of a life amid the stirring scenes which they had pictured on the s e. When his com- ons turned back, he re to join hem, and was last seen trudging west- ward along the county pike.

FOUR MILES FROM GLASCOW Supplied Chemicals for the Making of Gunpowder in Indian Times, Tradition Says. George P. Boll of 2615 St. Louis avenue, & zinc and lead prospector of extended ex- perience, has returned from Monroe County, in Southern Ill, where he explored the noted “Saltpeter cave,’ four miles from Glascow City. He went 1500 feet to the end of this cave searching for minerals in paying quantity. He found traces of copper and much salt- peter, also a epapeiona which he hopes will prove profitable. “Saltpeter cave" is 300 feet up on the side of a hill, 500 feet high. The entrance is very large and the major portion of the cave consists of large rooms. Near the center of the cavern fs a naturai well, very deep and the passage way around this orifice is narrow and one must use care in passing. The exploration of the cave is not diffi- cult after the hill is scaled. In olden time, so the legends tell, Indians sought refuge in the cave when pressed by foes and there the early settlers resorted to procure saltpeter to make the powder to hunt wild beasts and wilder men.

Bradford, Skipper of the Galatea, Expires. LONDON, April 10.—Capt.

Proposed Postponement of Contest Ascribed to Lame Hand. Is Harry Forbes arfaid to meet Johnny Regan? Recent developments in the line of post- poning the bantamweight championship match indicate that the Chicago fighter is none too anxious to risk his laurels in the ring with the man from Brooklyn. ‘ol. John D. Hopkins is in town, and art of his business will be to see that the tight is postponed. President Haughton stated that while he was in Chicago a physician examined the hand of Forbes with an Xray apparatus and found that it was all right and fit to with. Later on, Hopkins anounces that the hand is not all right, and says Forbes cannot fight for 30 days. resident Hauhton at once took the cue that Forbes would not meet Regan in the near future and wired George onroe to come on from Hot Springs. The presence of Monroe in the city is in- dication that Haughton considers’ the chance of Forbes coming to time very slim. May 8 is the day set for the fight, and Hop- kins may not accept. Monroe, when he found out he was to go on against Johnny Regan, balked. Monroe has not had any very extended training, and was obviously not anxious to take on Regan. Mouroe fought a 20-round draw with Re- gan some time ago, and wants all the train- ing he can get before taking on the Brook- lyn man. In the meantime it tis entirely probable that Forbes will not meet Regan nest. The hand excuse is a little lame, as that injured member was well enough for Forbes to fight Kid Goodman less than two weeks after the injury was sustained. Old Scentetr Rye Is Mellow And wholesome.

The famous aeronaut will soon start for St. Louis to arrange plans for the airship contest at the World's Fair. Alberto Santos-Dumont (that is his full name) will be in the country for three weeks. Engagements in England during the coronation of King Edward require that he recross the Atlantic by that time, byt if the necessary arrangements can be made, he will return here in July or Aug- ust for either a race with a rival or an ex- hibition. That he might be prepared for a visit this summer, he has shipped his jatest- built airship, Number Seven, to this eoun- trv, and will have it made ready for use. He will do no flying during the present vis- it to the ete pal fe The young aerlalist was accompanied by Emanuel Alme, former secretary of the Aero Club of Paris, and Albert Chapin, a machinist expert in airship mechanism.

GOES 10 VITAL GARESCHE SHERIFF WILL TAKE VIOLIN ON A WRIT. o_— - --- A writ in the hands of a deputy sheriff for the possession of the $300 Stradivarius violin, which, until today, has been at the home of Miss Marie R. Garesche, 427 West Pine boulevard, marked the closing of an interesting Icgal struggle for the old and valuable instrument. The present owner of the violin claims that it is over 100 years old. It was origi- nally the property of the grandfather of Alex J. B. Garesche, who died a number of years ago. Vital \W. Garesche, who brought acticn in Judge Ferriss’ division of the Cir- cuit Court in February, alleged that by his grandfather’s will the violin was his prop- erty. Marie R. Garesche, a rranddaughter of the original owner of the violin, asserted her ownership on the grounds that the grandfather's will provided for the disposi- tion of the instrument to the member of the family who became the most proficient in the use of it. She became an accomplished Vital Garesche, she failed to return it. Vital Garesche cook and instrument Marie Garesche’s claim: that was worth $5000 made it courts, the oem to appraise the real value of the vio- perts who appraised at the trial. the bow ancient violin and a flood of melody filled the old court room so accustomed to hear- ing only harsh and cutting tones of lawyers and judges. Jidge Ferriss decided that the instrument was worth only $500, and ordured that it be turned over to Vital Garesche. WILLIE DORGAN WAS CHOKED Crowd of Boys Annoyed Charles Jacobs of East St. Louis and Innocent Bystanders Suffered. Charles Jacobs, 30 years old, of 612 North Sixth street, East St. Louis, was arrested Thursday afternoon for choking William Dorgan, a 10-year-old bey, on the walk in front of the Jacobs’ home. A crowd of school boys had been try- ing to tease Jacobs py zeibos of him. They ran when he ed after them, but young Dorgan, whe had not been taking part in 5 he fun, ! for five days before going to St. Louis. “Il hope to see New York the principal air port of the world befure I pass away,”’ said he. ‘I have no doubt but that in my t'me, pe—rhaps ten years if | get the proper en- couragement and help. aerial navigation will be an accomplished fact: I have no doubt bu—t that I will live to see passengers transported by airship acress the Atlantic from New York to Paris. “I have not patented my airship in this country and do not intend to. I want other men to take my ideas and improve on them !f they can. “If the St. Louis World's Fair takes place next year, it is possible that nobody except myself would be ready to enter a race of airships, but if it takes place two years from now, I am sure there would be other entries. I have great hope for the future of the airship. You are doing some excellent work on it here in the United States and your professor, 8. P. Langley, is one of the preeiers men In the fleld in the world. This ® the country, too, in which it should be taken up, for you have the money, the men and the enterprise.’”’ As the Deutchland neared Nantucket. Santos-Dumont attempted to send the fol- lowing message ashore: “I bow to the greatest country in the world.’ He did not succeed in getting the message off.

Judge § P AS TALKED SUM Postponement Has Had No Official Stamp. NO ACTION HAS BEEN TAKEN HAS ONLY GENERAL KNOWLEDGE OF WORLD’S FAIR SITUATION, Says It Would Be Obviously Improper to Interfere With the Local Expo- sition Association Directors, Who Are Best In- formed. Thomas H. Carter, chairman of the Fed- eral World's Fair commission, told the Post-Dispatch Thursday morning that he had discussed the postponement of the Fair informally wih directors of the local com- pany and with other members of the federal commission. “It has been only such talk as goes on in hotel corridors,’ said Mr. Carter, *‘There has been no formal consultation and noth- ing that was said had any official stamp. No action has been taken.” | Mr. Carter repeated his statement that the local company must take the initiat:ve in any postponement action. “It would be obviously improper,” said he, ‘four anybody having only genera! know- ledge of the situation, to interfere with the action of the body which has specific in- formation and is in direet charge of the exposition.”’ Secretary Stevens of the local company said there had been no discussion of post- ponement since Chairman Carter's ari‘.val in the city. “Gov. Francis,” said he, “did not know Senator Carter was here until he read it in the evening papers last night. He had not seen him when he went home last night. of the matter it must have been with other directors.” Senator Carter said the federal commis- sion would probably meet after the re- turn of the members from the Charleston exposition, where they will be on Louis- iana Purchase Day, April 24. “T have just received from Senator Thurston,” said he, “his acceptance of an invitation to make an address on that day on behalf of the federal commission.’”’ Chairman Carter further said the board of women managers would meet and or- ganize not later than May 1.

BACKED BY $200,000,000 DIRECTORS HAVE BEBN CAUGHT $5,000,000 SHORT IN STOCK. They Are Delivering Their Certificates Fom Their Strong Boxes te Prevent the Corner From Being Forced. Specialto the Post-Dispatch. NEV YORK, April 10.—John W. Gates and hs speculating friends, who are said to hav $200,000,000 back of them, may drive the Bimonts and their allies from control of theLouisville & Nashville Railroad. Theyhave locked horns with the directors of tht road, and, as a result, the stock *has sai up from 109% to 114% on transaoc- tions ¢ 143,900 shares, the heaviest dealings in theptock, with few exceptions, in many years. Mr. fates and his friends have caught the Louisvile & Nashville shorm of $5,000,000 worthof its own stock, and are attempt- ing to squeeze the directors. To prevent him fom putting through his corner, the officen of the road are going into their ~ boxes and delivering ‘heir stock. Certiffates whith have not been trans- ferred for many years are coming into the stock market ewry day Up to this tine the honors appear to be with Mr. Gates, who is amazing Wall street by his daring md nerve. It is generally eoncrded that hi is the most intrepid oper- ator that rig im has seen since the days of “Char Woerishoffer. His re- cent speculatiog in Colorado Fuel are said to have nett im 000. The enormow transactions in Louisville & Nashville e brought out many wild rumors, one of Which is that J. P. Morgan and the Soufern rallway were seeking control. At present fe two roads are antagonists, It is a fact hat Morgan strengthened his ern during the excitement, * in # nutes yesterday, his house bought abot 145,000 shares of Southern stock, all tat was hurled at them. Ru- mors of corolidation, however, are denied. The fightin L. & N. has been going on about 10 4ys. John W. Gates and his friends leaned that the directors intended to issue $000, of new stock which the stockh»lads in 1898 had authoriz them to sell wen it was destrable. This, they decided tcdo quietly about 10 daya ago. The stax. however, was not ready for de- livery. @ new certificates were not printed,and it would uire at least 30 days tohave them properly signed by the officersand made ready for delivery. The ¢crectors, therefore, adopted the only expedjimt open to them: They sold the stock ¢ prices around 106, borrowed the cer- tificats from Stock Exchange houses to make the delivery, and thus technically went short of their own stock, intending to deliver the new stock to the brokers of whom they had borrowed the old. Gates Saw a Great Opportunity. John W. Gates was quick to see an op- portunity for a great speculative move. He sold out several thousand ghares of Color- ado Fuel and Iron and began buying L. & N. against the great short interest which the directors had bullt up. The stock be- gan to advance rapidly: April 1 it sold up to 106%, and on April 2 it sold at 106. April Sit sold at 107%. April 4 the high price was 108%. April 6 it advanced to 109%. The high price Monday last was 109%. It sold up to a on Tuesday, and yesterday jumped to As fast as the stock has advanced brokers, acting for the L. & N., have been making deliveries from the stock owned by the di- rectors themselves. As the new stock will not be ready for 30 days, they are forced to adopt this expedient to prevent Mr. Gates from establishing his corner. On the other hand there is ve dan- ger that control may pase out the hands of the Belmonts if they let too much of their stock go, so that, from a strategical viewpoint Mr. Gates appears to have much the best of the situation. Wall street is deeply tnterested in the fight, but there has been no wild scene on the Stock Exchange incidental to it. Only yesterday did the street get an inkling of the real situation. The strengch of Southern Railway is due to sympathy with the upward movement of the rival-road, and this led to the story that Mr. Morgan was attempting to unite the two great systems. The two railroads are fightin s onck genes bitterly, and the new issué o stock, which ts the cause of P ge present corner in L. & N., was prompted by de- sire of the latter road to 2 as © Pponitol f At- lanta, Knoxville whic in conjunction with zt.

PRAIRIE DU CHIEN, Wis., April ?.—Ex- perts investigating the discovery of gold and silver here declare there is no doubt of the quantity of the quartz or the values, but simply a question of the best possible means of development. The vein of quartz ranges from four to eleven feet in thickness. It has been traced for an area of four square miles. Possibili- ties of a large placer mine are disclosed, owing to the stfeams which have been cours- or years through this district.
