He was a strong advocate of cremation and seemed to fear that possibly his wishes in this respect might not be carried out. “I tried to encourage him and get the gloomy thought of death out of his head, but he refused to entertain brighter ex- pectations. I told him that he should try a change of climate, and he said that it had been his intention to go to Florida for a time about the first of June, but he now felt that he might not last that long. “T told him that I did not like to talk to him on the funeral subject, and he replied that he would come back Monday and see me further about it. _ “Morday he came back, but I was ab- eee - 4ucas ; gone. seemed scarcely able to walk, but he worked with me about his affairs, and asked me funeral work. sick, and I would have sent him home be- fore except for the belief that if once he got down in bed he would die. and grit that kept him alive so long. did not improve by the first of May he be- lieved had been with us a number of years, and 16 years ago.

CASE WAS BEGUN TODAY FORMER DELEGATE FACES JURY ON CHARGE OF PERJURY. - ——e | LAA ALLL LE LOLO A Armures, Gran $2.00 goods $1.50 goods Seemingly Unconcerned, as the Veniremen Were Being Ex- amined for a Jury. Jullus Lehmann, former member of the House of Delegates, was placed on trial in Judge Ryan's division of the Crimina! Court on Thursday morning on the charge of perjury. Lehmann was indicted by the February grandjury on a statement made by the former delegate before the grandjury while they were inquiring into the boodling deal whereby the Suburban Railroad Co. of- fered to members of the House and Coun- cil $135,000 to pass a franchise giving that road the right to certain streets and thor- oughfares. The case was the only one on docket in Judge O'Neill Ryan's court Thursday morn- thg, and it was called a few minutes af- ter 10 o'clock. Lehmann entered the room several min- utes before court convened. He was cheer- ful. As he entered the Four Courts build- ing he was whistling, and no one would have suspected that he was a defendant in one of the most important cases that has been called for years in the Criminal Court. Lehmann conversed with his attorneys, Messrs. Harvey and Gernez, and shook hands with such fMends as were within the enclosure reserved for the members of the bar and the press. When Circuit Attorney Folk entered the room Lehmann arose and crossed the room to where Mr. Folk stooa. The defendant smiled cordially and extended his hand to the circuit attorney. They chatted pleas- a for a few minutes. When court convened Judge Ryan asked if the parties were ready to proceed with the case. WITNESSES CALLED. Circuit Attorney Folk asked that the wit- nesses for the state be called. The deputy sheriff called these names: Philip Stock, Charles H. Turner, Richard Hospes, Paul RRefss, William H. O'Brien, George Mockler, Charles Wiggins, Fred C. Lange, John F. Melilert, William H. Lee, J. M. Dutro, R. N, Shapleigh, John P. Camp, Harry M. Coudrey, P. R. Fitzgib- bons, William R. Hodges, W. Lafe Sturtde- vant and Charles W. Holtcamp. Most all answered, and Mr. Folk announced that the state was ready. Attorney Harvey @d not ask for the calling of witnesses for the defense and romptly announced that he was ready. ‘his was somewhat of a surprise, as it was expected that the same dilatory tactics that have been resorted to in the other cases would be adopted Judge Harvey presented a motion to quash the venire for the special jury. This mo- tion was merely perfunctory and it was an- ticipated that it would be overruled. Tihe motion had been made beforé and Judge Harvey said that the same reasons were advanced now, that the drawing of the jury was unfair. a was expect the mo- tion was overruled. TWELVE OF THE VENIRE CALLED. By order of the court 1z talesman of the venire were called into the jury box to an- swer interrogatories of counsel regarding theif qualifications to serve as jurors in the cage. The venire consists of @ tales- men. om these & qualified jurors will be seiected. And from this panel of 24 the defense may reject eight and the state four. Mr. Folk questioned the jurors for the state and Judge Harvey for the de- fense. During the examination of the first 12 talesmen Lehmann sat unconcernedly at the rear of his counsel. He lolled in his chair and was apparently the most uncon- cerned person in the room. TURNER COMES INTO COURT. At 11:30 o’clock Charles H. Turner, presi- dent of the Suburban road, and the com- pany’s “‘legislative agent,’’ Philip Stock, strolled leisurely inio the courtroom. They walked down the main aisle and took seats in the front row of the division of auditori- um reserved for witnesses. The large crowd that was present when court opened melted away during the ques- tioning of the talesmen, and at noon, when court adjourned, there were only a handful of spectators present. Comparatively few of the former members of the, House of Delegates and Council were present, in Strong contrast with previous trials of the ““*boodle’’ cases. LEHMANN SAYS HE DIDN'T KNOW Indictment Followed Statements That He Was Ignorant of the Subur- ban Bribery Deal. Julius Lehmann was a member of the House from the Eighteenth ward when the Suburban bill was pending before the Municipal Assembly. The Suburban people were anxious to get their line extended, and have a Union Station connection. Philip Stock was made the “legislative agent’’ for the road after an attempt to get Ed Butler had failed. $135,000 was raised for the purpose vf buy- ing votes. The Council was to receive $65,- | 000, and this amount was placed in escrow ‘in the Mississippi Valley Trust Co., with Charles Kratz and Philip Stock holding the keys. money was placed in the Lincoln Trust j Co., with John K. Murrell and Stock hold- ing the keys. MEASURE WAS PASSED. The money was to be paid when the leg- isiation desired had passed both the houre and council. The measure passed both houses. but was vetoed by the mayor, Ziegenhein. It was then passed over his veto. Citizens asked for an injunction. This was granted temporarily by the courts and was afterward made permanent. The money remained in escrow. The leg- islators contended that they had done their ee TS — ~ eee ee = — 2333 3237 923799 9977? Users of GRAPE-NUTS don’t care how high meat goes.

The railroad people refused tw part with the money. Rumors reached the ears of the circuit attorney that the money was still on de posit. A grandjury investigation was in- stituted and Mr. Folk laid before the arandjury e details of the deal. The vaults of the trust company were opened by tke courts and the money found. The evidence was impounded. Witnesses were called before the grand- jury. Charles H. Tyrner, president of the Suburban, and Philip Stock, the “legislative agent,”’ turned states’ evidence. Some mem- bers of the House and Council also turned states’ evidence, and as a result Kratz and Murrell were indicted on the charge of accepting a bribe. Henry Nicolaus, a Su- burban director, was indicted on the charge of giving a bribe. LEHMANN A WITNESS. Lehmann was a witness before the grand- jury. He was one of the first summoned. He denied all knowledge of the deal. He was permitted to leave the room and was informed that he could either tell what he (knew @ that he might stand the conse- /quences and be indicted on a charge of bribery. He cheerfully. maintained that he knew nothing. Next day. after he had again been called before the jury and was again | fiven a chance to tell what he knew. he was arrested in the Four Courts on a bench | warrant holding him to answer an indict- ment that might be returned charging him with perjury. Harry A. Faulkner, anoth- er member of the house, was indicted with Lehmann on a similar charge. Lehmann obtained Thomas B. Harvey and John A, Gernez to defend him. So far only ore of the boodle cases have been tried. That was the case of Emil A. Mey- senberg of the Council. His case was aside from the 8136,000 deal, and his conviction and three vears’ sentence is a matter of recent history. All of the detail of how the $135.000 deal was consummated will be related by wit- ,hesses in the trial which began Thursday morning ‘iurner, and Stock will relate what they know about the transaction.

As the train would arrive in St. Louis early in the morning, prompt action was required, and the injunction, secured by arousing Judge Spencer from his early morning slumbers, did its work none tov quickly to frustrate the -ransaction. Mrs. Bowen had accepted an offer of $600 a share from the Mississippi Valley Co. for her 132 shares, which were in the care of a Cincinnati trust company. When she re- celved an offer of $1000 a share from the Mercantile she cabled to the Mississipp! Valley an offer of $10,000 for release from her contract. This was refused. and the ufficers of the company later learned of the preparations for the sale to the Mercautile through the Commonwealth.

ITALIAN GANG AGAIN OPERATED SUCCESSFULLY HERE. Several Years Ago the Same Frauds ' ffecured Thousands of Dollars From Innocent, and Guile- less Citizens. Ttalian confidence men who operated in St. Louis in 187 and 1898 and who fleeced St. Louisans out of thousands of dollars, returned to the city recently, and on Wednesday resumed their tactics. They fleeced Louis Slin, a shoemaker of 2021 Market street, out of $375 in cash and jewelry worth $500. The Slin job was, according to the police, done by Frederico Martino, alias “The Cu- ban,”’ and Joseph Arno. After getting away with Slin’s money, and jewelry the confi- n esca ' eciin . on Italian. Martino went to Slins place a few days 4£°, and finding the shoe- maker was an Italian appeared delighted to t a fellow countryman. “iartino had plenty of money and by his liberality gained the confidence of the shoe- maker. Later Arno met the shoemaker. He was & slight acquaintance apparently of Martino. ednesday Slin was about to take his money and jewels to a safety deposit vault. The two confidence men accompanied Rim. Martino while on the way proposed that Blin show the jewels to Arno. Only Trash in the Box. They stepped into a saloon to make the exhibit. Arno assisted in replacing the pac as. Glin’s attention was attracted and Arno had the box in his possession for a few moments. The box was closed, and Blin went on to the safe deposit. When he got there he made the discovery that the 4 > was — ther worthless trash. ° "The trick the same gang played upon Joe Daneri, a saloon keeper, several years ago, will illustrate their methods.

They asked Darer! to accmopany them to the archbishop'’s residence, which he did. Got $1200 in This Deal. Arno went to the hotel where he was topping and soon returned, bearing with Men alias in which he said was the $50,000 in gold. He opened the valise and drew out a package of money rolled as it comes from the banks. He spent money avighiy and apparently became drunk. It would not Bo to go to the archbishop in that condition and Pasquini wanted to take the money back to the bank. It was too late. Then Pasquini proposed that Arno give the money to Daneri to keep. Arno refu . He would trust no one. Pasquini then proposed that Daneri place his own money and jewelry in the valise with Arno’s and that it be locked and left with Daneri as a guarantee. This satisfied Arno and it satisfied Daneri. Daneri had about $600. This he placed in the valise. He stripped off his two dia- mond rings and’ his diamond stud valued at another $600, and placed these in the valise. Arno cleverly extracted the money and valuables and put iron washers in their place. Then the Italians left, to bed. When they did not return Daneri cut the valise open and found he had been swindled. © was convicted and served three years in the Missouri penitentiary. KILLED A MAN, FINED $100.

At the time the mandamus proceedings were instituted to compel the board of public improvements to ‘permit the transit company to erect poles and strir over- w on Pine street from Twelfth _gtreet to Twenty-first street, about six months ago, some citizen suggested that it w be a good time to compromise with t transit company and induce them to ae sufficient tracks to permit the es- ta ng of a boulevard from one end of the city to the other. a “I thought the idea a good one.

They attempted to dash from the car to- oo and all were shaken violently when t came to a sudden stop. Policeman Burgess of the Wyoming street Station saw what appeared to be a burn- ing car with passengers dashing frantic- ally out of it and turned in an alarm of fire. Then he went to the assistance of the passengers. He found all but two able to walk away without assistance. r. Geitz was found suffering severe pain and was carried to the office of Dr. O. F her, on Pestalozzi. street. Geitz says the motorman fell on top of him when he ju from the car. ss Benner's rey was caused by falling on her head in the atreet in her haste to alight from the car. Dr. ‘*ich- tenhan dressed her scalp wound and she Was taken home by her sister. Motorman Doman says the rubber pack- ing about the wires in the controller caught fire from a “short circuit.’’ The packing was consumed, but no other dam- age to the car resulted. Doman says the explosion caused him to lose control of the car momentarily, but that he recovered himself in a minute and stopped the car. LAST CONCERT AT Y. M.C. A.

Citizens who have been shocked by the revelations published tn the Post-Dispatch regarding the sale of diseased meats, wil! agree with Dri Charlies W. Heitzman that all meats coming into the city should be inspected. Dr. Heitzman was formerly Chief of food inspection for the city of New Orleans, and has given tho subject many years’ study. He calls attention to the absurdity of having but four or five meat inspectors in a city the size of St. Louls. New Orleans, only half as populous, had twelve, inspectors, who found plenty to do in preventing the ‘pale of diseased meats. Dr. Heitzman, in Wednesday's Post-Dispatch, gives figures showing that. in one year the twelve New Orleans inspectors Condemned 1280 pfeess of trimmed meats, on account of bruises; 08 entire animals, from the same cause; 23,457 diseased livers; 207 pigs with cholera; 82 head of cattle with tuberculosis, and feveral with other diseases, Of meat’ shipped into the city by packers, no less than. 10,860 ‘pounds was condemned on account of decomposition. The work done by the small ‘force of inspectors: in St. Louis is totally inadequate for protection. Meats are sold in St. Louts daily in a condition calculated to spread disease among the peo- ple. This state of things should not be permitted to continue @ day longer than is necessary to find out how many inspectors Gan do the work, and to appoint them. They should be men of experience and education in this line of duty. Effective food inspection must be one of the features in the government of the New 8t. Louis. . While Congress has been fooling with Cuban reciprocity, nearly '@il the planters have been compelled to mortgage their crops. — +o ———— AS TO FLAG COLORS. Director Nicholas M. Bell of the Louisiana Purchase Expos!- tion Co. objects to the strip of yellow in the proposed World's Bair ficg on the ground that yellow is the color of flags used to @Gesienate plague spots. He says that red, white and blue are #oo0d enoveh for him. Red, white and blve are good enovgh for anybody. the color of the flags of anarchy and public auction. Do the directors want to indicate that the World’s Fair is an- stic, or is an auction store, by putting red in the flag? White’ ig the color of the flag of surrendef and is generally ac- ted as a symbol of cowardice. Shall the World's Fair fly color of surrender and cowardice? Blue is the color of de- ipair. Shall we wave a message of despair to the world through strip of bluc in the World's Fair flag? © pest fag happens to be yellow, but it {s rather difficult to the force of the argument which would bar the yellow strip th its historical significance from the World's Fair flag on this unt. By the same argument all other colors which have un- ant significance when used alone should be barred. $ combination of ged, white, blue ana yellow is beautiful and = onious. These colors in a good design would make an at- ve flag. \ And it would magne the demands of history. But red is a bull rine ts ‘one. of the features of the cele- ico of.the accession of. King Alfonso. What good can be a ted of a reign that begins with an exhibition of cruelty animals? = = . - A MEASURE OF PRECAUTION. The reports of soundings near the volcanic is'ands of the West s show that the disturbance is profound and widespread. winking of 3000 feet suggests a danger greater even than the uptions, and already the fear is heard that the islands + ND ee and St. Vincent wit be swallowed up like Atlantis This maybe a foolish fear,and acientists may scout it. But wefence has jittle to teli of voleannes and earthquakes. The com- n or scientific men appointed by the governor assured the of St. Pierre that’ they were in’ no danger. The next they were all buried beneath a mass of lava and ashes. it not be wise to keep this in mind when planning re- ‘work? If the destitute and homeless thousands on Martinique St. Vincent are in danger of being engu!fed, why not carry to Porto Rico or Guba, where they will be safe beyond 4 venture” They can be fed and clothed there more easily teh on their own fire-swept island. | - nee, Engiand and the United States can do the work = avid other nations would no doubt assist. +e & high-ta rift ‘theory must be maintained In Congress.

Mr. Parker further tells us that in Yokohama there is a phrase dammurize—hito, which he thinks« has avery Jate origin—not further back than the adoption of the masculine civilization of the West by the gentle Japanese. It's funny, isn't it? And what a commentary on American and English manners. The appeal of the President for funds to relieve the sufferers in Martinique and St. Vincent has beén supplemented in St. Louis by -Mayor Wells and Messrs. Charles Parsons and R. 8. Brook- ings of the local committee. In response to the request of the committee the Post-Dispatch will gladly co-operate in raistng the needed funds. We will receive and acknowledge all contribu- tions sent to the Post-Dispatch and will turn them over to the committee. The destructive work of Mount Pelee and La Sou- friere is so tremendous and terrible that it appeals to the civilized world for sympathy and aid. The American people should lead in the work of relief, and St. Louis shoula be among the first of American cities in promptness and liberality of response. Give what you.can and give quickly. y —_-S AN UNUSED NATURAL ADVANTAGE. St. Louls wants the full benefit of all her natural advantages. One of the greatest natural advantages possessed by St. Louls is a great waterway to the gulf, which should put the city in close touch with the sea, and control freight rates to the seaboard and all'intermediate points, including the vast territory surround- ing these points. But St. Louls does not enjoy the full benefit of her great water- way. simply because the waterway is not utilized for freight transportation, After years of urging Congress has assured the permanent im- provement of the Mississippi by providing appropriations for five years. It has assured an eight-foot channe!}. Shall the money devoted to this improvement be thrown away so far as St. Louls is concerned? Shall all the cities on the river, except St. Louis, reap the benefit of an improved river? Shall St. Fouls be cut out of her proper, natural advantage in the river? These questions are up to the merchants and manufacturers of St. Iouis—what shall the answer be? With the waterway unused St. Louis now labors under a great disadvantage in trade. The rates do not permit successful com- petition with other cities. New York can ship cheaper to New Orleans and the South than 8t. Louls. The advantage enjoyed by New York is enjoyed by every city with free access to the sea. With the waterway utilized St. Louls will have the rates to the sea and the rates to a vast territory contiguous to the river and the gulf cut in half. Every raltlroad handling St. Louis business to the South will have to meet the river rates. The result of putting regular freight packets properly construct- ed for river traffic on the river would mean a tremendous accretion of trade for St. Louis. The merchants and manufacturers could well afford to pay thousands of dollars to support regular pack- ets The returns'‘in increased business would be ten to one. The efforts of the Manufacturers’ Association to revive the river traffic on a business basis between St. Louis and New Orleans should receive the hearty co-operation of the business men of St. Vouis. ; a will mean a great growth of profitable business for St. souls. = = a a -_ One of the greatest and most successful newspaper owners in the United States is dead from a street railway accident. Walter N. Haldeman, the president of the Courier-Journal Co. of Louis- ville, the business associate of Mr. Watterson. was so young an old man that he might have reached the century mark. His death, at the age vf 81, closes a most remarkable career and is sincerely regretted by thousands. Shortening the weight of a load of coal 9350 pounds is what Truthful Jamcs would call ‘‘coming it strong.’* Heavy fines for delivering light weights of coal should be as frequent as the offense itself.

PAUL FORD’S PROFITS. Writing of Paul Leicester Ford, the slain author, the correspondent of the Philadel- phia Press says: “If we judge by finan- cial results, then he stands in the highest rank of those authors who have been suc- cessful. His earnings from his fiction, in- cluding his royalties from the play, have for several years been very large. They were great enough to permit him to build the house in which he was slain at a cost, house and land, of nearly $100,000. Some three years ago when he was in Paris he bought a brooch of rare and curious set- ting, paying for it a little over $20,000, and he was reproached by one of the party who was with him at the jeweler’s who said to him: ‘Paul, you cannot afford to pay for that,’ and to this he replied: ‘Oh, Janice pays for it." Therefore, he had at that time received enough in the way of royalties from ‘Janice Meredith’ to enable him to pay for his jewel that cost $20,000. “His royalties were steady and had been especially ‘gratifying from the play of ‘Janice Meredith.’ His literary work was in constant demand and he practically re- ceived for it his own prices. “He owed much of his popularity and reputation in New York City to brilliant qualities as a conversationalist, and as he resembled Alexander Pope, the poet of Twickenham, who was hunchback In phy- | sical deformity, so he also resembled him in nimbieness of wit and alertness of mind | whereby he was able to make his conver- | sation, even upon trifling things, some- times almost too brilliant, so that there was even a suspicion of affectation, al- theugh that was unjustified. ’ STORIES OF THE CHILDREN.

William Golden, employed in a saloon at Seventh and St. Charles streets was caught between two Broadway cars, going in op- posite directions, Wednesday evening, and seriously injured. He was twirled like a top the entire length of the cars, yet held on to a basket of wien- les, to save them from being spilled, dur- ing his perilous passage. His collarbone was broken and his shoulder injured. “IT could Have stood sideways between the cars and perhaps escaped injury if I had been willing to drop my basket, but I was afraid my boss would not like to have the meat lost, so I held on to the wienies,”’ is Golden's matter-of-fact statement of the accident. He is a patient at the City Hospital. Golden was crossing Broadway at Mor- gan street when he was caught. He real- ized his danger a,moment before the cars closed in on him, But he was afraid to jump out of the way, fearing that he would be struck and run over.
