‘ : ' ; ie THE ONLY ST. LOUIS NEWSPAPER WITH THE ASSOCIATEL VOL. 54, NO. 281, a DESMOND HOME BUT HE RETURNED WITHOUT KRATZ Knows Where the St. Louis Boodler Is, FOLK ORDERS HIS SILENCE STILL CONFIDENT THE FUGITIVE WILL BE SROUGHT BACK. Mexican Police Officials Still Have Kratz Under Surveillance—Detective Thomas McGrath Came Home With His Chief. “Kratz is still in Mexico, and I think I know just where he is,”’ said Chief of De- tectives Desmond to the Post-Dispatch Thursday morning. The chief aad hardly concluded when the telephone rang. It Was a message from Mr. Folk and con- veyed instructions to the great St. Louis sieuth not to talk just yet of the probabili- ties of bringing Charles Kratz, indicted for bribery, back to St. Louis. “I would like to tell everything that hap- pened from the time I left St. Louis up to now,” remarked Mr. Desmond, ‘‘but I must defer to the wishes of Mr. Folk.’ Chief Desmond, accompanied by Thomas McGrath, returned to St. Louis from Guadalajara (pronounced as if spelled Wad- alhara) over the Missouri, Kansas & Texas Railway at 7:30 o'clock Thursday morning. Mr. McGrath proceeded to the Four Courts, while Chief Desmond went to his home at 4290 Page avenue. Evidently the trip to the Mexican city has proved a boon to the St. Louis detec- tive chief. He is sun-tanned and sligh-ly stouter than when he left fiVe weeks ag> His whole manner indicated that he was confident Ex-Councilman Kratz would eventually be brought back for trial. From his remarks it was inferred that the Mexican police officials now had the fugitive under surveillance. Mexicans Are Hospitable. Detective MoGrath also looked the pic- qure of health. He referred all inquiries to Chief Desmond. Talking in a personal vein the chief said that he enjoyed his trip to Guadalajara iramensely, and that the authorities of the Mexican city had accorded him every cour- tesy. “Guadalajara haé a popultation of 180,000. The natives are as hospitable a people as I ever met. I ifke Guadalajara better than. any éther Mevican city. “The police constabulary there is up to modern standards. It is somewhat pecu- liar, however, to one used to thé American system. Instead of patrolling beats at night a policeman is found on nearly every corner in the business and populous dis- tricts of the city. “te always carries a lantern and an or- derly on horseback cogresponds to our ser- geant. When the orderly comes along the policeman signals with his lantern. “Guadalajara is comparatively free of crime, and great shrewdness has been shown tn the running down of offenders.”’ Plot to Kidnap Chief Desmond. The chief smiled when asked concerning the dispatches from Mexico to the effect that plans had been made to kidnap and arrest him for “pernicious interference.” “T pelieve at one time,”’ he said, ‘‘about two weeks after my arrival, there was some talk of placing me under arrest. “I knew nothing of any kidnaping plot. If any serious efforts were made, how- ever, to handicap us, they failed utterly.” Chief Desmond left Guadalajara at 10:20 last Sunday morning. At that time he said Mrs. Kratz was still thers, and he knew of no arrangement which she might have made for leaving. _ He stated further than he had talked with Charles Kratz, but the nature of the conversation he refused to disclose Chief Desmond arrived at the Four Courts at noon and immediately went into conference with Circuit Attorney Folk. he conference continued for two hours. t its conclusion Mr. Folk stated that Desmond's report was satisfactory, but that he could not discuss at present @ proposed supplemental treaty with tne exican government covering bribery.

He Will Spend Spend Several Days in the Town of His Childhood and After the Ceremonies at Columbia Will Return to This City, BY ROBERTUS LOVE. Mark Twain is here. That is, he was here until 2 o'clock, when he boarded a train for Hannibal. While in St, Louls he took a nap at the Planters’ Hotel. On the way downtown from Union Station he remarked: “St. Louis reminds me of several cities— Philadelphia and other places.”’ Then he went to sleep. But it must not be taken for granted that Mark Twain went to sleep because St. Louls reminded him of Philadelphia. He courted a siesta because he was sleepy. He was sleepy because he needed sleep. It was the most natural thing in the world. Mark Twain had been on a train two nights and a day. He left New York night before last. He didn’t sleep well on the train. That was rot the fault of the train. It was due to the weather. The first night he was too cold. The second night he was too hot. He sald so himself, and he never lies. “The only real liar in this world,” said Mark Twain to me on the train Thursday morning, somewhere this side of Litchfield, “is the practical joker. 1 hate a practical joker. His aim in life is to de- ceive. I never was a practical joker—ex- cept when I was a boy, and a boy has no sense. The practical joker is a boy who never has grown up. His head is full of stewed oysters instead of brains.”’ “IS MARK TWAIN ABOARD?” “Is Mark Twain aboard?’ I inquired of Hi Jenkins, the merry-mouthed Ethiope who pilots the New York sleeper as head porter. “Yes, sah,’ replied Hi, wondering why on earth any man should want to see Mark Twain. It was just about daylight—a raw, chill dawn on the Illinois prairies, January jabbed into June, a latter May morning with March mercury. Still, it was the end ofthe nft#hit when Mark Twain got so hot that he couldn't sleep. “Yes, sah, Mistah Twain is on dis train. He's jis’ puttin’ his clo'es on, in de draw- in’ room. Say, dat gentleman mus’ be rich. He had de drawin’ room all de way through "’ “Will you carry my card into Mr. Clem- ens’ drawing room?” I requested. “Into who?” asked the porter. “Say, I thought you wanted to see Mr. Twain.”’ Meekly I explained that Clemens was Mr. Twain's home name. “What's he travelin’ under on o' dese yere a-lie-asses fur?’ asked the porter. “Mr. Clemens,’ said I, ‘“‘is a writer, a man who writes funny books, and he uses Mark Twain when he writes.”’ “Say, mistah,’ the porter’ said. “I thought dat man was a writer. He laid awake all right befo’ las’ a-readin’ a great big book. Funnies’ man I evah did see. Say, he didn't sleep a wink, dat man didn’. Whah'd you know dat man?’ GOING TO BE DOCTORED. This necessitated another -explanation that Mr. Clemens was bound to Missouri to receive the degree of LL. D. from the Missouri State University at Columbia. ‘“‘He’s zoing to be doctored,’ said 1. DON’ NEED NO DOCTORIN’. “Say, look-ee yere, mistah,”’ said Hi: “dat man don’ need no mo’ doctorin’ than I does; his skin's as pinky as a baby's He's de healthies’ man, fur an ol’ man, Il evah see yit."’ “How is Mr. Clemeéns’ appetite?’ I in- quired. ‘Mighty po,’ sho'’s yo’ bo'n,” replied the porter; “I don’ see how he keeps up laik he does, eatin’ so little W'y, dat man hain’ been vuten de drawin’ room but oncet sence we lef’ New Yo'k. He come out to eat lunch. All de res’ o’ time he been in- side a-readin’ outen dat great big. book.’’ ‘As soon as you get my bed made, so there will ve room for two Missourians in this pigeon hole, you can admit the gen- tieman,”’ said Mark Twain to fhe porter. When I was admitted, Mark Twain was enjoying coffee, bread and butter, his breakfast. He gave a duplicate order for himself and insisted upon his visitor eat- ing what he wanted. The porter came in to take the sevond or- der, and Mark Twain paused between mouthfuls to look up at the smiling car pilot and remark: “Where's the bill? Now, don't, you for- get the bill.”’ “Sho’ I won't, Mistah Twain," replied the porter. “But you look to me like a man who would forget it,’ insisted the humorist. “You hawe the forget face. I'm very much afraid you'll never present me that bili.’’ Then Mr. Clemens tock occasion to ex- plain how he happened to be cold on a reasonably warm night and hot on a cold night.”’ “The first night I was aboard,”’ said he, “the porter thought it was going to be a hot night, naturally, because it {s summer time. I had only one blanket on my bed. I got chilly. It was so chilly that [ was uncomfortable, so I lay awake and read a good part of the night. That porter was misiaken—I did sleep some. “J AM A FLITTER.” “Last night | determined to be prepared. So I ordered an extra. blanket, which the porter brought me.

Mr. Jones was found at 10:45 o'clock Wednesday night in the office of Dr. E. E. Holt, at 1326 Franklin avenue, by Patrol- man Gleason. There were cuts on both his right and left wrists, and he was receiv- ing treatment. Patrolman Gleason questioned the ‘injured man, who was very reticent. At firet he declined to answer any questions as to how he received his wounds. Finally he said that he was talking to a married woman, when. her husband unexpectedly arrived on. the scene and slashed him | across the wrists with a knife.

MOST OF CHUMS GONE. “There's Charley Warner—Charles Dud- ley Warner,"’ Mr. Clemens was quick to add, evidently fearing that I would not recognize in the familiar ‘‘Charley’’ the distinguished Hartford litterateur who was his close neighbor for many years. ‘“‘He’s gone, too. Most of the men I chummed with | | | | ' |Mark Twin cout on the Pacific coast are gone. Nash Froeks and Charles Warren Stoddard are left.”’ Mr. Clemens showed heightened t[nterest when his train reached the Mfa@sissippi riv- er. He craned his neck to look up and down the stream, once so familiar to him as qa steamSoat pilot. “See those ripples and curlecues,’’ the author to a young woman who entered his drawing room to get his autograph— and she got it, too, with a smile and a pat on the shoulder. (N.. B.—I promised not to mention this. says he has writers’ cramp able to make his ‘‘mark."’ he thinks, should re- and is scarcely Autograph hunters, |apect age, unless they are unusually pretty | They ; | giris.) “Those little curls on the surface,” sald humorist, ‘“‘are quite famillar to me. are distinctive of the Missisaippl. There is no other river I know of that has eo many of them.” Here was the old pilot cropping out. The Mississippi river pllot must know all those curves and curlecues, otherwise he is like- ly to run into “mark twain’ water—only two feet deep—and hang up his craft ona bar for seven days. The ripples and curls show the depth or shallowness of the water, just as the smile curves or frown angles on a man’s face show his character. “Ry the way, Mr. Clemens,” I remarked, the “an old raft pilot on the upper river told me the other day that you never made a good pilot. He thought you might have been a pretty fair one if you hadn't quit the business just about the time you had it learned and begun writing. It takes a man. he said, about 10 years or so to learn the business.’ SAW A CHALLENGE Here was where Mark Twain woke up. He saw a challenge and accepted it. “I'll venture that man,” he ag “was a mud clerk. I’lf venture he n knew me, and had no opportunity to know whether | was a good pilot or a bad one, ‘ae hie 7 * ew ‘ef ee al ee oy a MD pw at. a 7 : ied : BPO cael nm or t ¢ 7 ‘. aaa oe See ey eo a , “Heo 2 ahd a a ee er said - _ — LL i i le — _ ——_+ -—-* << & rank of their own, at the top. These under them never met them on terms of equality. There was one grade—and I guess your raft friend belonged to that— which was made up of mud clerks, cub pi- lots and strikers. The mud clerk was the apprentices clerk. The cub pilot was the ap- prentice to the pilot, and knew nothing about the business till he spent several years at fit. The striker was the engineer's apprentice. Those three were equals. They never got near the captain or pilot in rank, “Your man was on the upper river, you say. Where did he see mé? I was on the lower river altogether. What did he know about the lower river? “Some men neve® did make good pilots, itis true, but that was because they didn't have the faculty. They were in the wrong business. They were not porn to be pi- lots. Others made good pilots naturally. ‘There was a Horace Bixby, who taught me the business. He wasa pilot. But one of his assistants, whose name I can’t re- call, though he had a license, never was a pilot. He had been at the business 2 years, and still Bixby used to do part of his work and draw part of his salary, be- eause he couldn't steer a boat under all conditions. “Whatever your raft man may think, 1 reckon a man who could draw his own sa!- ary and part of another man's knew enough about piloting to get along, and I did that.”’ THE FAMOUS JINGLE. Changing the subject, lest I should be compelled to give the name and town of the raft pilot and carry him a challenge to mortal combat on Bloody Isiand, I asked Mark Twain why it was that he was popu- larly supposed to be the author of the famous jingle: “Punch, brothers! punch with care! Punch in the presence of the passenjare!”’ “When Isaac H. Bromley, editorial writer on the New York Tribune, died a few years agv, his friends claimed that he was the author of the lines," sald I. ~ “Sy he was,” replied Mark Twain; ‘the and Noah Brooks. I saw the lines float- ing about in a newspaper, after having read the street car placard which inspired them, and used the jingle in a sketch I wrote for the Atlantic Montly, published in Feb- ruary, 1876. “rf told how they had run in my mind until I was welinigh crazy, then I gave them to a preacher friend of mine, who carried the jingle in his brain until he delivered a funeral sermon in the singsong rhythm of the ‘punch’ rhymes and had the whole audience bowing and swaying in o his rhythm. wy Seale. made any claim to the author- ship of the verses, but Noah Brooks writes me twice a year demanding to know why I am trying to steal his lines. These are the lines to which reference is made: Conductor, when you receive a fare, Punch in the presence of the pamenjare! A bive trip slip for an eight-cent fare, A buff trip slip for a eix-cent fare, A pink trip slip for a three-cent fare; Punch in the presence of the passenjare: Ohorus: Punch, brothers! ponch with care; Punch in the presence of the passenjare! THE ORIGIN OF IT. In April, 1875, the New York and Harlem street railroad, horse car route, posted in its cars the following placards, announc- ing that the punch system was adopted: The CONDUCTOR, when he receives a Fure, must immediately VYUNCH in the presence of the gree ae slip for an eight-cent fare, A buff trip slip for a six-cent fare, A pink trip slip for a three-cent fare. For Coupon and Transfer Tickets, Punch the Tickets. ‘"This was the real father of the jingle.’ said Mark Twain. “I have told Noah Brooks that I don’t see how I could be ac- cused of trying to olaim the authorship of verses which the horse cars might have written, 80 musical was the jingle in the placards.

MARK TWAIN'S WELCOME. he | Members of the Merchants’ Greeted the Great Humorist at Noon. Mark Twain was formally welcomed to St. Louls by the members of the Merchants’ “But isn't it a.fact, Mr. Clemens, that its |M@xchange at noon Thursday. value is enhanced because it comes from | Missouri?’’ Mr. Clemens tried to hedge on this ques- tion, but when I asked him if he would go 1000 miles up in Canada to receive an LL. D. he replied, with his honest smile: “You can rest assured I wouldn't.” The honesty of Mark Twain's smile ts its chief ¢haracteristic. One never has any Suspicions about that smile. When the Mark Twain smile comes around, one doesn't think of locking the doors and hid- the silver under the parlor fug. That smile is just what it purports to be—strictly hon- est, no humbug. , Mark Twain were the smile reached Union Station. of the past. “Once I filtted into St. Louts,” he said, ‘“‘with James R. Osgood, the publisher. That was in 1880, when I came hereto take pas- sage down the river on a boat, to gather material for my book, ‘Life on the Mis- sissippi.’ I wanted to go under an assumed name, the captains and pilots would tell me lies about the river; otherwise I fear they might have told mé the truth, if they knew I wanted it for a book. “Il went into the Southern Hotel and reg- istered as ‘James KR. Smith.’ The clerk looked at me and yelled: ‘Front! show Mr. Clemens up to room 258.’ ’’ Mr. Clemens was much amused because the Pullman porter wag not acquainted with nis fame. when he Hie was thinking So MARK TWAIN UNKNOWN. “When I was swindling the pubiic on the lecture platform with George W. Cable, about 15 years ago,” said he, “Cable bet me that we could not find a person who had not heard of Mark Twain. I took the bet. We went at once fnto a store on Broadway, New York, where pictures of all sorts of celebrities, actors, siragers and authors, were kept. “ ‘Let me See the latest picture you have of Mark Twain,’ remarked Cable to the young woman at the counter. “The girl looked puzzled, but she glanced up and down the long line of pictures on the wall and, turhing to Cable. asked: "Where does she sing?’ ”’ Mr. Clemens’ remarks anent the practical joker, quoted early in this narrative, were called’ forth by a question as to the trutn of the story about the presentation to him of a pipe by the printers on the Virginia City Interprise, when he was a reporter there in his earlier days. Mark Twain's pipe, called “The Remains,’ smelt so vile that the printers determined to get rid of it. One night they bought a new pipe for du cents that did not look Iike 30 cents In the gaslight. It looked like $30, but it was as much of 4 fraud as the $ Panama hat With touching speeches they presentea this pipe to Mark Twain, who responded feelingly and threw ‘“‘The Remains” out ot! the window. That was the only time that Mark Twain ever was Known to descena to pathos. , The cheap pipe split in twain—mark that —the first time the recipient smoked it. and Mr. Clemens went out in the yard and hunted up “The Remains.” A PRACTICAL JOKE. “Yes."" he said in the train, “that story is true, and I'm mad about it yet. It was a practical joke, and the cheapest form of wit is the practical joke. I wouldn't have cared if the pipe cost 8 cents or $30, but when they came to me seriously and made the presentation as a costly pipe, when it was a cheap affair, that was another thing.”’ At Union Station Mr. Clemens was met by Dr. J. Roses Clemens of St. Louls, a cou- sin, whose guest he will be for a day or two after Jure 4, when he returns from Columbia as Dr. Samuel Langhorne Clem- ens.

Correspondence of The As*ociated Press. Mi SOOW, May 30. In connection with the assassination of M. Sipiaguine, the Russian minister of the interior, mention has been made of the new workingmen’s policy in- |augurated by M. Zoubatoff, chief of the se- cret police of Moscow, with the approval of Chief of Police Trepoff. Authentic information, received here shows this policy to be one of the oddest and most revolutionary ever taken by te Kussian government. ; Last autumn, on the ostensible initiative of workingmen, a numoer of university professors and teachers began lecturing tv audiences of workingmen on the question of labor legislation and various other allied subjects. it soon became apparent that the lectures had been organized by the secret police, whose tools the alleged working- men's leaders were, and all the lecturers, e.cept one, ceased their discourses. These lectures were introductory to the organization of labor unions, or friendly societies, statutes for several of which have ust been confirmed by the ministry of the nterior. A characteristic of these statutes is that they permit policemen and priests to be- come members of the sociecies. It is provided that the funds of these or- ganizations may not be used to support strikes. Workingmen’s meetings, conducted by po- lice in temporary tea rooms, were allowed to discuss the eight-hour movement, free- dom of organization, liberty of instituting strikes, and other matters hitherto held to be seditious. Government Scored Immediate Success. Th: government scored an immediate success. The secret, radical movement was out-trumpeted. Every man was invited to openly demand what he had preached stealthily, and rumors were circulated that the government intended buying factories and turning them over to workingmen. The government's victory attained its maximum when 6000 workingmen peaceabiy celebrated, Feb. 19 (old style), the anniver- sary of the emancipation of the serfs, in the sacred Kremlin, the police officiais carefully selecting the participants and giving tickets, in batches of 100, to regu- lar and secret police and spies. Thereupon the governor-general of Mos- cow, Grand Duke Sergius, received a dele- gation of workingmen and promised pater- nal solicitude for their welfare. Celebrations in commemoration of emancipation day had been strictly forbid- den heretofore. So much for the bright side. From the beginning disadvantageous fea- tures cropped out, and the working peo- ple quickly tired of mere talk and demand- ed results. Early in the year strikes began in numerous factories. These were fol- lowed, in some cases, by incendiary fires, while machinery was smashed in Doniioft cotton mils by a mob led, it Is asserted, by police agents. most extraordinary phase of the sit- uation began last February. Although the government tried to hush the affair up, the following story has been absolutely au- i thenticated: Rumors in regard to the matter were current in &t. etersburge and they were verified by an investigation made on the ground. A French company operates silk mills there, employing ordinarily about 5000 men. One day two pretended workingmen, inamed Krasivsky and Jilkin, leading or- ‘wanizers of the lectures and of the friendly societies, demanded admittance at the works, for the purpose of discussing the differences between the company and its employes. Manager Goujon, a French citizen, re- fused to allow them to enter. The two men, who were in reality police agents, rea- ported to the nearest police captain, who ‘demanded that they be admitted, with the same result. Chief of Police Trepoff then called M. Goujon to the telephone and eremptorily ordered that the men be al- owed to enter tne mills. The manager declared his willingness to comply if Trepoff sent a written order. The chief answered that M. Goujon should obey irstantly and the written order would be | forthcoming. | ‘Very well,”’ replied M. Goujon, “since you promise it, I will admit the men.” | chief of Police Became Enraged. Trepoff, thoroughly enraged, then shouted that M. Goujon would have to leave Moscow within 24 hours. The two agents were finally admitted to the mills, and, after a discussion, deman4- ed that the company pay the employes 4,- /000 roubles on disputed wage adjustments, the workingmen having charged that tn- equitable measurements had been made of work completed. M. Goujon refused to accede to this. A factory inspector attached to the finance ministry declared that the demands were : | } unfounded, but nevertheless the two agents | | called out 700 weavers whom Goujon im- mediately paid and dismissed. Chief Trepoff hired a vacant workshop to lodge the idle men and their families and |gave them money regularly, in order. it is | | claimed, to make the strike a success. He also sent notice that the mills would be inspected and threatened that. if a single infringement of the regulations was found, M. Goujon would be imprisoned |The eanitary inspectors, however. found nothing amiss. Thereupon, M. Trepoff sum. moned ~, Coulen, and his neseolates and threatene oO ruln them if , igre with his desires. ey setuces “If the demands were legal, I would ly submit,” responded M. Goujon. a ding that not only would he not take back the 700 persons tn question, but would also dis- miss 2000 others employed in the prepara- tory stages of the work. M. Goujon, with several friends hastened to St. Petersburg and related the circumstances to the officials of the finance ministry, which controls factories.The man- ager carried with him a collective rotest of the Moscow manufacturers, who de- clared themselves unable, under the exx- isting conditions, to operate their factories since the police engaged tn inciting the employes to hatred and distrust of their employers. Soon afterward 60 manufacturers of Mos- cow held a secret meeting, at which they drafted a stronger protest and sent a depu- tation, including M. Naidenoff, chairman of the board of trade. to St. etersbure. Thus matters stood when M. Sipiaguine WAs aseaseinated. What policy the new minister wil) pur- sue ‘8 not knowm but, tn the meantime, the manufacturers stoutly declare they will not resume operations until the ac- tions of M, Tiepoff are disavowed. They do not much object to a long shutdown ow- ing to business being excessively bad. The Goujon affair has taken on an interna- tional aspect, owing to the manager hav- ing appealed to the French embassy for protection. The trades union movement has also 4d- vanced beyond the wishes of the lice.

But the Great Struggle for Control Gave a New York Woman Oppor- tunity to Increase Income to $2460 a Yoar. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, May 29.—Several families in moderate, and even poor, circumstances have been madé comfortable as a result of the fight between the Gould and Rock Island interests for control of the Wiggins Ferry Co. at St. Louls. Dow, Jones & Co., in thelr Dally Bulle- tin, tell the following interesting story of the Bent the outcome of which is still in doubt: “It {is not often that Wall street dro anything into the lap of the widew or the orphan, but the Wiggins Ferry controver- sy between the Gould and Ro Isiand in- terests has made at least one worthy widow happier for the rest of her life. “Durnin he controversy for the control of the Wiggins Ferry shares a New York trust company received imperative direc- tions to buy of Mrs. —— of New York City 82 shares of W s stock. As high as $1000 a mhare cou be paid under the order, but the transaction must be imme diate. “A trust company official forthwith post- ed uptown end, to his amazement, found the holder of those 82 shares to be in @ habitation indicating a long struggle with poverty. ° ‘Everything was neat and clean about put th vras every tndication that several bodies had to be clothed and feq from some smal! investment. “Mrs. —— was assisted down to her chair by the other members of her family and said: ‘“'T have been receiving 8 r cent upon those 82 shares and that $ is all that this household has had to live upon. I was told that I could get per share. I have endorsed my certificate and sent it out West to be seld for that price. “Can you’ truly tell me that you can get more than that for it? You look like an honest man, and I will trust you if you can promise more.’ “The trust company’s official replied: ‘Madame, I can premise you at least yer share, and may be able to get you more f you can stop that certificate and turn it over to me.’ “The necessary papers were quickly signed, the certificate. was stopped in tran- sit, and $1000 per share, or $82,000, was placed in the trust company to the credit of the invalid widow. “The second interview with the owner of that $82.000 was as brief and as clearly to the point. She said: ‘I trusted you before and you served me faithfylly. You may now take charge of this money to insure me and those depending upon me a certain income.’ “He responded: ‘The trust company will pay you per cent upen it.’ “And now those &2 shares are returning 3 par cent tnstead of 8 per cent, but the widow is getting $2460 where formerly she the house, got only $656.

A storage battery has been completed by him of which he says: - “I believe my battery satisfactorily solves the problem of obtaining a pource of power for running automobile vehicles that will give a good mileage without renewal. It will not require expensive care and will not erate fortune. The murderer fied to the West and the old man’s property was ad- ministered by the court, each of the heirj| receiving an equal share.

HAMLET WITH 150 DEAD I DISCOVERED PROF HILL’S EXPLANATION. The sone of the catastrophe in Martinique forms an elongated oval, containing on land about eight square miles of destruction, This oval is partly over the sea. The land part is bounded by lines running from Le Precheur to the peak of Mont Pelee, thence curving around to Oarbet. There were three well marked sones. vegetable and animal, was utterly destroyed; this sone; second, a sone of singeing, all men ané animals, burning the leaves on the trees, large outer, non-destructive sone of ashes, wherein some vege.a- the trees themselves; third, a tion was injured. First, the greater northern part of St. blistering Bame, in which all life, Pierre was in which also was fata) to all life, killing and scorching, but not utterly destroying, a center of annihilation, The focus of annihilation was the new crater midway between the sea and the peak of Mont Pelee, where now exists a new area of active volcanism, with hundreds of fumaroles or miniature volcanoes. a aon. s FORT DE FRANCE, Martinique, May 23.—Noon—The crater of Mont Pelee has been approached within one mile. This feat was accomplished Tuesday afternoon by George J. Kavanagh, an un- attached newspeper man who had accom- panied Prof. Robert T. Hill, the United States governr®cnt geologist, on his ex- _pedition. A +4 When Prof. Hill turned south toward St. Pierre, Mr. Kavanagh continued on past Morne Rouge. His route seems to have been along or near the Cale Basse divide. He says he descended from Morne Rouge into the valley between Morne Rouge and Mont Pelee. This valley was deeply strewn with ashes. Mr. Kavanagh was guided by an aged negress to where an old footpath once led to Lake Palmiste, near the summit of the crater. There an iron cross, 20 feet high, was buried in ashes to within a foot of its top. Before him, stretched upward the moun- tain slope, covered with ashes, which, soaked by the heavy rains and baked by the sun and volcano heat, looked like a cement sidewalk. The whole mountain was shrouded in smoke. Forgetful of the explosion of the previous night and the awful suddenness of the outbursts; and tempted by the seemingly easy ascent, he continued upward and made &s and rough sketches. Mr. Kavanagh found the valiey filled with ashes and two great rifts, which he to approach. At 6 in the even- ed back, reaching Morne Rouge at about 8 o'clock. He had made no new observations, and realized his danger only the next morning, when occurred the great- est outburst since Mont Pelee’s first erup- tion. On Wednesday Mr. Kavanagh tried to descend to St. Plerre, but failed. He found a little hamlet, in a valley near the mountain, black with 150 dead bodies. They were not carbonized, nor had their cloth- ing been burned off. Probably this valley lay near the inner edge of the zone of blasting flame. George Kennan reported from Morne Rouge this morning. . Two hours ago, Prof. Angelo Heilprin. president of the Philadelphia Geographical Society, but here under the auspices of the National Geographical Society, left to make a three-days’ careful exploration and study of the new craters, each and north. PROF. HILL ON MONT PELEE The Washington Geologist Witnessed the Explosion of the Volcano Monday Night. FORT DE FRANCE, May 29—Prof. Rob- ert T. Hill, United States Government ge- Ologist and head of the expedition sent to Martinique by the National Geographical Bocilety, witnessed Monday night's ex- Plosion of Mont Pelee from Morne Rouge, Only @ short distance north of the craters, ‘but, as it providentially; happened, out of the sone of destruction. ~The professor re- turned here Wednesday. Vivid Bolts Of Lightning. Speaking of his expedition to Mont Pelee, Prof. Hill said: “My attempt to examine the crater of Mont Pelee has been futile. I succeeded, however, in getting very close to Morne Rouge. At 7 o'clock Monday night I witnessed a frightful explosion from Mont Pelee and noted the accompanying espa While these eruptions con- tin sane man should attempt to as- oS the crater of the volcano.

We discovered that it had broken out at the very head of the River Falaise and about two hundred yards from the high road. Our party rode directly to the edge of the crater, as it was then qulescent. fe saw that a great slice of the mountain had fallen, leaving ex- posed a perpendicular cliff. In «this cliff were five huge tunnels, which were not smoking. The crater is a great sloping oval depression. from which smoke Is- sues, as it does from the great crater, with the exception that here and there were few ashes in the smoke. The River Falaise is boiling hot and so muddy that one quart of waier weighed four pounds. Volcanic stones of the nature of pumice float in this water. “Mr. Kennan witnessed the explosion of Monday night, and was much interested in the phenomena. The explosion was accom- panied, at intervals, by bright light which lasted for half. an hour at a time. This light was steady and ilt:uminated the entire mountain top. Prof. Hill says he did not see this light. I left Mr. Kennan and his party in good health and in safety. They seemed to be in no hurry to come back to Fort de France."’ The explosionof this morning was ac- companied by an enormous column of smoke, which rose fully three miles into the air, but which was largely hidden from the view of the people of Fort de France. IN THE RUINS OF ST. PIERRE Post-Dispatch Staff Correspondent Tells the Story of Mont Pelee Horror. FORT DE FRANCE, May 19.—From the sea St. Pierre has the appearance of a deserted and decaying Village. A _ closer inspection reveals that it is not deserted. but peopled with the dead, lying about tne streets in the most pathetic attitudes, crushed under great boulders of rock, frag- ments of falling walls and girders of iron, and covered with a thick coating of light yellowish dust that explains the terrible fate of the 34,000 people whose lives were either burned or crushed out within a period of two fleeting minutes so terrible to recall that even the survivors do not pre- a to supply details or reliable descrip- on I landedjat the foot of a street looking up toward the great cathedral, 200 yards north of which was the statue erected by the proud people of St. Pierre to signalize the fact that Josephine, who was eee _— press of France. was of Martini I started up this street intending to v sit the cathedral first and the statue of Josephine afterward. bad not proceeded 20 feet when I was confronted by a skull sur- mounting a heap of debris. Dead Body at Almost Every Step. . . Twenty feet further along, jammed up against a thick stone wall, were three more bodies, still smokin The French troops had apparently made an effort to bury them, but their efforts had not been suc- cessful. At almost every Step afterward a body was encountered. counted 40 of them in one block, 36 In the open streets and four in the doorways of houses. Some idea of the panic that must have ‘revailed among the people of St. Pierre in attempting to escape the awful rush of ashes and dust from the mountain above was seen In the Rue Victor Hugo. In one spot in that street I saw seven bodies al! jumbled together as if the people had been fighting for the right to rush down to the sea when tvercome by the shower of death- dealing ashes or crushed by the falling timbers and walls. A most pathetic spectacle was presented in front of the Hotel de Ville (City Hall). where a great many people had gathered. Here, almost crushed by trees that had been torn from their roots on the mountain above was found the body of a woman, lighter in hue than the average native of Martinique, lying on the right side in a natural pvusition, with the body of an in- fart. The woman apparently had been at- tempting to shield the babe from the on- rushing torrent of ashes. Two feet away was a man who seemed to have fallen face downward in trying to rotect a woman almost buried under hi ess than six feet away were five other bodies. Two of these were children. In the American consulate we countd five bodies buried under the walls. They had been crushed beyond recognition. Saw 432 Bodies in Two Hours. I made a memarandum as we went along, and at the close of two hours it showed that I had seen 432 bodies. Some of them were #0 far below the surface of the thick layer of yellow volcanic dust that care had to be exercised to prevent stepping on any of them. At the convent the bodies of two women fully garbed as nuns were found un- der a great girder. They had not been buried but crushed to death. In the cathedral all the interior decora- tions and furniture had been demolished. The great square belfry remained, but | the roof was off.

But the operators have set their faces like flint against it. The word has been: “There is nothing to arbitrate.”’ It is a heavy responsibility they assume when they arbitrarily ' vefuse to consider, what the general public has come to believe, is @ reasonable prcposal, and the weight of responsibility is multi- plied when their policy is seen to lead straight to a disastrous general strike. There arc now 180,000 men idle {In the anthracite region, most of them being members of the union, but the number includes many engaged in auxiliary industries which have been interrupted by the strike. There are between 425,000 and 450.000 soft-coal miners, and all these may be thrown out Add to these the general-idieness and ) dislocation of business which must ensue if these men strike. ' The mind doés not willing contemplate a condition so full of = aly possibilities. There must be something to arbitrate, and the operators should have some regard for the public interest. The business of the country must not come to a standstill while the parties to this econireversy fight it out. : -— ++ The Democrats of Missour! should kick out the lobbyists.

Pler- pont Morgan and James J. Hill have bought a controlling interest fn a St. Louis bank follows Closely upon the intelligence that four more railroads are seeking entrance into the city. The importance of St. Louls as a financial and commercial center is recognized by the business world. Mr. Morgan him- |@elf, who is probably the greatest and most sagacious financial! génius the world contains, is quick to see the opportunities in the great Southwest and realizes that the time has come to “make the most of them. 8t. Louis is the natural depot of supplies for the entire region, south and west, the center from which radiate the lines of traffic. _In such a center modern facilities of exchange are indispensable ana the appearance of Messrs. Morgan and Hill is evidence that they are to be supplied. Old. St. Louls ts gone forever. . New St. Louls Is here to stay. “She signs of the change are seen on all sides The slurs about the “overgrown country town,” the complafinis of “ultra con- Servatiem” and slugeishness are no longer in order. With the year 1902 St. Louis takes her rightful place as one of the great financial and commercial cities of the country, and before the next ieensus ir taken tho transformation will be completed. St. Louts will be not only a big but a great city with all that that implies. eee eee ooo = | -—— The investigation of public printing irregularitics may develop another type of public plunderers. T —€ MISSOCURT'S BELL Gov. Dockery has taken up the matter of providing a suftable gift from the people of Missouri to the battleship Missouri with: promptness and enthusiasm. He has appointed a strong com- mittee of citizens from al! parte of the state to collect the neces- sary funds. fs The gift recommended by the St. Louls Artists’ Guild ts a (ship's bell “expressive of the highest form‘ of art in design, deco- ration an? tone, composed as far as possible of Missourl min- @rals and designed by Missouri artists." Gov. Dockery, who has a special Interest !n the battleship, hav- ing urged that the name of Missourt be given a great battleship, and having voted for the construction of the Missouri, hearttly ‘Sn@orses the bell as the best memento that could be selected. It is approved also by Admiral Francis T. Bowles and the officers of the navy In the bureau of construction. Tt te estimated that the cost of a suitable bell will not exceed $7,600, but the cost will be determined largely by the design. It should be a beautiful and rich-toned bell. The money should be raisod by the small contributions of a : | great number of Missourians rather than by a few wealthy men.

Three well-known millionaires are associated in the ven- ture, which will be called the Twentieth Century Club, the idea being to provide a comfortable and even luxurious bome for those who have no time and perhaps not the meana, to obtaln.elther com- fort or luxury. Three large houses Im Stanley Garden, West, have been thrown into one, and beautifully dec- orated and furnished. Each member of the cinb will have ber own bedroom. with the use not only of a eltting and dining room, but also of « music room, &@ writing and reading room, and lounge for after-dinner coffee or afterroon tea. The mem- bers will dine at separate «mall tables, and af.er dinner they wil] be able to step out from the three large French windows into a beautiful private gar- den, with Gowers and shady trees and comfor:abie seats.

Additional Gossip From Wall Street Caused Another Upward Spurt Here—Mechanics’ Bank Ten Dollars Higher. Reported daily by the Wasserman-Rosen- berg Bond & Stock Co., 8t: Louls. Rampant—and excited bullishness took possession of the local security market to- day and the sessions abounded in the re- enactment of scenes which have recently distinguished the St. Louis stock market trom every other market In the country. Whatever other markets may have had of an ante-holiday feeling, St. Louis ex- hibited a more active and stronger front than ever. Of course, interest was transfixed in the Third National Bank stock, which at the opening scored the extraordinary gain of $10 per share—virtually ‘‘overnight,”’ as the | tat ession is—selling at $330, compared with a high mark of $320 Wednesday and 17 close. The advent here of the omnipotent financial syndicate known as the Morgan- Hill interest, together with the attendant surmises of the street, were sufficient in their entirety to cause the exchange of over 500 shares, After the high opening there was an in- dication of profit-taking, which slowly but certainly forced the price back to which was the figure at which the last salo was madc, and the price wanted by hold- crs; $323.50 being the best price offered. Only 40 shares of Mechanics’ National Bank stock changed hands, but it, too was at an advance of $10 per share, $300 i\being paid for two small lots taken. This figure, it should be added, is the highest on record for this stock. 25 shares Merchants’-Laclede at $306.50 represented a gain of the high-water mark price ex- ucted yesterday. | Most of the other hank stocks did not ‘show great changes, some of them being subjected to profit-taking pressure, whica reduced gains made earlier in the week. This was notably .the case in National Bank of Commerce, which sagged back to $411 from $411.50 pefore the eee. with more offered at $411 and $409.50 b A few lots of State National dave ht $224, a fraction better than the last sale Wednes- ay. Lincoin Trust was far and away the feature of the trust company group, with an advance of $8, to $281.50, which figure was reached during the course of the open- ing bulge. Afterwards there was rather liberal selling around $280, under the im- peus of which the price fell to $279 asked at the close. with $277.50 the best bid. Trad- ing was heavier in Lincoln Trust today than has been known in months past, and the figures recorded are quite appreciative, though nearly $19 below the record price o fseven months ago. A strong feature was Missouri Trust, which, contrary to many of the other 1s- sues, maintained the major part of its advance until the close. It sold up to 125, with more offered at that figure, and 124.50 bid by a number of brokers. Title Guarnty Trust also developed a bet- ter tone than for some time, which was traded in from $127 to $128.60. Colonial Trust promised well after the opening sale at $223. selling as high as $224, but later it receded to the original gale price. Arbitrage transactions condutced in Mercantile Trust issues caused fairly heavy trading in those stocks, but did not cause an improvement. The old stock dropped from $431.50 to $430 at the close, while the new was depressed from $433.50 to $433. After selling at $392. St. Louis-Union Trust experienced a reactionto $390, which was the last selling figure. A gain/of 75 cents was scored for Germania Trust, which was bid $212.75, after selling at .$212.50. The demand for this stock was not- ably good. Less was done !n American Central In- surance stock than for some time past. Only a few shares sold at $291 and $290, with more offered at the latter price. For Rell Telephone of Missouri stock $160 was bid. This is the highest ever offered for this tndustrial. In the syndicate tractions the market was not very active. St. Louis _ Transit was only sparingly taken at $31.25 and $31.37%, while a somewhat better pete existed for the preferred United Railways at $84 and the 4s at §87.75. Neither of the latter securities sold, however. FIRST CALL—QUOTATIONS.

ITS WEIGHT IS 2400 TONS NEW BRUNSWICK, N. J., May 2.--An engineering feat which for magnitude and quick execution has se“iom been equaled was accomplished today at New Brunswiek by the Pennsylvania Ral!iroad Co. The bridge croseirg the Hariten river and the draw connecting, which spans the Deéia- ware and Raritan canal, were moved 14 feet and 6 inches in one minute and 43 sec- onds. The iengih of the bridge and draw is 906 feet. Tue bridge has five spens, each 10 feet tong. and the draw span is the same length. 16 allowance for expansion is about $ fest. The start was made at 12:10:30 p. m., im- mediately after the 12:0 eastbound train, which war two minutes late, cleared the bridge. Bolts were removed and disconnec- tions made, and at a given signal the struc- ture, weighing 2400 tons, began to slide eas- ily and nolselessly onto the new abutments. In one minute and 43 seconds the tracks were in their new sitions. Connections at the ends were mede, and the tracks were ready for service at 12:19 o'clock, the entire work taking eight and a half minutes. There was not one second’s interference with the regular railroad schedule, and at 12:25 o'clock a westbound freight passed. The first passenger train croased thé bridge eastbound at 12:47 o’clock. At the eastern 'end the. new eastbound track connects with the old track at a distance of 480 feet. On the western end, the former eastbound is now the westbound track, and the new east- bound track completes the four-track sys- tem through New Brunswick, with a com- paratively smal] strip yet to be finished, about half a mile west of the bridge. The feat is the most successful of its |kind in the history of the Pennsylvania Railroad. The preparations were begun about Jan. 1, new abutments being con- structed since that date at each end of the bridge. The actual time taken was leas than the engineers expected. The work from its inception has been undar the per- sonal supervision of F. L. Shephard, the general. supe-intendent of the United Rall- roads of New Jersey division, and he was in charge today. ny of the companys engineers and engineers from other roads also were present, some having come spe- clally from Chicago. Mr. Shephard was highly complimented on the success the undertaking by President Cassatt of the Pennsylvania.

PROPERTY IS IN ENGLAND Bpecial to the Post-Dispatch, MILWAUKEE, Wis., May 2.—Miss eBatrice McKenzie of Chicago now rehears- ing with Becker & Wall's opera company here, claims to be heiress to the famous North and East Marden estate in England, on which is located the Goodrich racecourse, where the English Derby is run, and she has retained attorneys in the suit that she is about to bring to secure a legal! title to the Dioperty. The estate is worth nearly $5,000,000, and includes, besides the Goodrich racecourse, about 100 acres of land between Bright- on and Chichester, and $500,000 now depos- ited in the Bank of England. The claim is based upon the fact that Miss McKenzie's grandmother, the sole and onty heir of the property. The only heir at the time of her death in 18381 was Miss McKenzie's father, George 8. Mc- Kenzie of Chicago. ‘Mr. McKenzie engaged Jeffrey Hawkins, a London lawyer, to bring suit for title to the estate. Because of difculty tn proving the death of tHe eldep McKenzie the case dragged along for a number of years, and finaliy resulted in his being offered one- nt of the cstate if he would drop the suit. Mr. McKenzie refused the offer and con- tinued the suit. Just at the time he had found the necessary preofs of his father’s death he himse!* écok sick and died as the result of an operation in the Cook County Hospital in Chicago about two years ago. Miss McKenzie, the only heir of her Fath- er, has taken up the suit where he left it and has retained Jean Lablera, attorney for the Actors’ society of New York, to con- duct her case for her. ——— A TEXAS WONDER.
