Special to the Post-Dispatch. CHICAGO, July 16.—John W. Gates and his friends closed out their corn deai with profits of about $4,000,000. They have about 5,000,000 bushels of corn en route that must be accepted, and prob- ably at a loss, -too. How the manipulators will come out in disposing of these millions of bushels of ccrn is for the future to determine. It is believed that they have much of it sola for September delivery, and will carry it in store until then. If so, they will yet come out big win- ners, a3 they have said from the start they ¥ ould. Shorts to the extent of millions of bush- els have effected private settlements with Harris, Gates & Co. Just how extensive were these settlements or how much the squeezed shorts contributed to the for- tunes of Mr. Gates and his friends will never be known positively. There is no doubt, however, that Gates squeezed them dry. Out of this end of the deal he and his friends made a big pile of money. Uncle Rube, the farmer man, upset the calculations of the-Gates crowd by pro- ducing and threatening to produce more July corn than they could handle. So they ut on the screws, gave the shorts one vio- ent squeeze, and then got ott from under. Both sides claim a victory. Everyone is asking who was short. Even the bulls have asserted that the short interest is scattered, and to have the announcement come out that they have settled millions of bushels, the trade natur- ally asked, who was short? There is a rumor that one big local opera- tor was caught, but this cannot be con- firmed. The elevator men, who have been short, made the corn, delivering 236,000 bushels yesterday. The men behind the corn deal have more money than any set of traders who ever attempted to run a squeeze, but they were too sharp +o stand up and hold the bag for the country to pour In millions of bushels. At the rate the corn has been coming in the past few days there might: have been 10,000,000 to take care of in the last ten days of the month. This, at 70 cents, would cost $7,000,000. Even with the resources of the present bull clique, they did not feel like trying to get rid of so much corn. As a parting joke the Gates party gave the countrymen a dreadful black eye. With millions of corn bilied ‘‘Chicagu,”’ the coun- trymen expected to sell at the fancy cor- ner prices. Now they can make more money out of it by taking it home, feeding it to hogs and selling hogs at $8 per hundred pounds. ROCKEFELLER IN CORN DEAL . —— = ——EE— VENICE, AS SEEN FROM THE NOW RUINED TOWER OF CAMPANIL EB. VENICHE, Italy, July 16—The historic city of Venice is said to be sinking and may be doomed to total destruction. This is the opinion of Prof. Wagner, the city architect. He savs that the subsoil has de- terlorated and the piles and pillars are rotten and unable to stand the pressure on them. Shrinkages and sinking have been observed in the subsoil for many years, although an official commission late- ly declared that there was no danger from these causes. The collapse of the famous tower of the Campanile two days ago is now said to have been due to the sinking of the town's foundations. Built Gver a Vast Lake. Venice is situated In the lagoons of a sort of vast lake, separated from the Adriatic by a long belt of lowland, which ts divided into islands by six channels between the mouth of the Pieve and Adige, 37 miles east of Padua, on the Turin, Milan & Venice Rallway. One of the islands thus formed by tte “iannels is named-the Lido; north of it is Porto di Lido, the channel through which the fleets of Venice passed in former times, but is now the entrance for small craft only. Immediately west of the Lido are the islands on which Venice is built, and immediately south of them is the Porto di Malamocco, now the sea-way for the vessels of the greatest draft. Venice, for many years, was the capital of a celebrated republic, the first maritime , ow => é = 5 : . ‘2 ‘ “5 i Se ae a yt sete 9 - ag eae ‘ri a at ‘ 3 . “yh s i : , ae Ber a ae , b oa _— o_o ore - ee ES RO pa OF BE DESTROYED ak ’ e yen 2 » ad q we rd os BF ih oS ae ; Oe pi an eS Fae ee i MORE THAN 100 LIVES LOST IN A SILVER MINE ar @& Explosion of a’ Magazine SALT LAKE, Utah, July 16.—A telephone | message just received from Park City, Utah, says that the magazine on the 1200- foot level of the Daly-West miné exploded shortly after 1 o'clock this morning.

The tunnel is full of gas and it is impos- sible to penetrate far into the mine. | The Daly-West mine is cne of the largest silver-producing mines in Utah. A telephone message from Park City at 10 o'clock says that 33 bodies have been removed from the two mines. Officials of the Daly-West state that only three more bodies are in the mine. Miners, however, assert that there are 12 or 15 still unaccounted for. bl of the Daly-West Mine Near Park City, Utah. GEORGE GARVIN. 5 RATTI. ; , CHARLES NEIME. My WwW. F.

After a gesture to the audience he threw his body forward, intending that his feet ghould strike the lower bar. The force of his weight, however, loos- ened the upper bar from its socket and it Gropped to the ground. Thomas sotght one of the side ropes. His hand could not reach it, and then he sought to hold himeeif up by his toes on the lower bar. But his body was too far away from the ladder, and turning round and round he de- ascended. The audience shuddered. Women, hor- ror-stricken at the sight, turned away. A @ozen screamed. Mrs. Thomas rushed for- Ward to catch her husband. She was too late. "It is all ower with him;"’ sémeone sald. Thomas was lying on the ground, siurnea for the moment. The crowd gathered about him. Physicians were summoned. Then, suddenly, the acrobat straightened himself out and, looking up, sald: “I'm not hurt bad. There is just a lit- tle twitching in my back; but it was a close shave. If I hadn't turned I would have been killed."’ He was conveyed in an ambulance to the City Hospital. Supt. Nietert says his hurts @re not serious and that he will be able to go about in a few days. Mrs. Thomas accompanied her husband to the hospital and will nurse him there un- tll he is well. LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT. The couple were married at El Paso, Tex., six months ago. The wedding was in the nature of an elopement. Mis. Thomas who was a Miss May Taylor, met her hus- band while he was doing a ‘‘stunt” at Hil Paso. It was a case of love at first sight. Mrs. Taylor, however, offered vig- Orous objection to the match. Bo the young folks planned a coup. Stealing away from her home, Mrs. Thomas acoompanied her intend» across the border line of Mexico, wheres they re- mained hidden until they thought Mrs. PZaylor had stopped looking for them. At an auspicious moment they went back te Bi Paso. In describing his experience vid said that he had a hard time try- to get the license, because he had for- @otten his wife's name, but he managed to call her Jones, and the clerk agreed to do the rest. “Now that I have met with another acol- Gent,” said David Wednesday, “I guess | will write to my wife's folks and see if won't forgive us.

Pep in ae phn yesterday made defendant court in Kansas City in a suit to collect $250, the price of a magnificent pastel pic- ture of Mrs. Snyder. Epecial dispatches to the Post-Dispatch state that Snyder's refusal to pay the bill was based on the fact that B. R. Strauas, the protograpyer wh > made the picture, had exhibited it to the public in the show win- dows of his studio. The dispatch says: Many visitors to the photograph studio of R. Strauss in the Ridge building have admired a large pastel picture of Mrs. M. Snyder. the wife of the capitalist, who has been facing charges of bribery in St. Louis for so many weeks. The pastel is a beautiful picture of a beautiful wome an and it hung for a long time in Mr. Strauss’ studio. This picture is now in the Snyder res- idence on Independence boulevard, and Mr. Strauss wants to get possession of it be- cause Mr. Snyder has never paid for it. Mr. Snyder objects to his wife's picture being displayed publicly tn a photographer's studio for advertising purposes. Mr. Strauves has made repeated efforts to et either his pay or the picture, but so ar all his efforts have been in vain. Yes- terday he filed a suit in Justice Withrow’'s court against R. Snyder for $250, the amount the photographer says is the value of the picture. Mr. Snyder Offered to Pay $100. “I made several efforts to get either my pay or my picture,”’ said Mr. Strauss this morning, “I sent for the picture last week and received a note from Mr. Synder say- ing he would not return the picture. He offered me $100 for it, which I refused to take. Mr. Snyder assumes the position that I have no right to have in my pos- session a picture of his wife."’ The picture was painted from a photo- grp- it was painted in pfistels by Mrs. ; . Horton, one of the best-known paste! portrait painters in the West. Mrs. Snyder sat for the photograph in Mr. Strauss’ studio and afterward sat for Mrs. at the Snyder residence, 2806 Independence boulevard. Mr. Strauss employed Mrs. Horton to make pastel enlargements for an art exhi- bition he gave in his studio in October, 1901. Mrs. Horton made pictures of Mrs. Snyder and of Mrs. Ernest Moore. when she was Miss Martha Brent. “I gave Mrs. Horton a check that had four figures in it," said Mr. Strauss this imorn- ing. ‘I sold some of her work and thougat I had sold Mrs. Snyder's picture. Mr. Sryder came to my studio one day and asked me to fix the price on the picture of Mrs. Snyder. I asked $300 for it, but before Mr. Snyder left I agreed to sell. it for $250. “‘T can’t pay you so much,’ said Mr Snyder. “However, you may send the pic- ture out and I will fet you know what I wil' do when I return from a trip to Cincin- nati.’ Mr. Snyder returned but uc not sey ory thing more about paying me. Finally I sent for the picture about a week ago and as I did not get it or a check I de- cided to sue.” Mr. Strauss has taken many photographs of Mrs. Snyder. She was a good subject for a Rootoere her's art. Mrs. Snyder was Miss By il MacKenzie of Boston before she mar- ed Mr. Snyder in 1900. OIL DERRICKS WF*’E DAMAGED.

He was dead when park employes, at- tracted by the report of the pistol, reached his side. ° The spot which the suicide chose to end his life is on the picnic grounds, about two hundred yards south of the police sub- station.

POLICE FOUND LETTERS. The police found several letters in the suicide’s pockets which were difficult to decipher, but the name signed to them seemed to spell Percy Hullinger. The letters indicated, also, that his ad- dress was 313 Clark avenue and that he was jealous of his wife, who lives in I)li- nols. The years of age. The spot where the man supposed to be Hullinger killed himself is near the same spot where D. M. Murphy committed sui- cide in the same manner last Menday.

The islands upon which the city is built are 80 in number, are intersected by 147 canals, communicate with one an- other by hundreds of bridges, and are di- reat groups by the Grand canal, which winds in serpentine fashion through the city. This renowned sea-thor- oughfare is about two miles long and from 160 to 250 feét broad. The bulidings that crowd the islands and seem to rise—a base- less fabric—from the surface of the v-ater, rest on foundations of piles and stone. Their facades front the canals. Very often no door is seen, and the only access to the building is offered by an en- trance at the back of the interior of the island; which is covered with narrow streets and lanes. The superb bridge of the Rialto spans the canal at its narrowest part. This bridge consists of one span 91 feet in length and 72 feet wide. It is divid- ed in the direction of its length into five sections. Two of these are rows of shops and three are footways.

The state attained its height of prosper- ity in the fifteenth century. It began to decline in the sixteenth century and was overthrown completely by. the French in 1797. Since then it has been held success- ively by France, Austria and Italy. In 1848 the Venetians revolted against the Austrians and held the city for several Ng The city was again annexed to Italy.

St. Louis business men who prolong their vacations until the first of September will wonder on their return what has happened to the familiar, dingy old Bank of Commerce building at the northeast corner of Broadway and Olive street. Since the bank moved acrossthe street to its new home, workmen have com- menced changes inside and out which will make the building unrecognizable by he time the Commonwealth Tirust Company, its new tenant, shall move in. The first and second of the bullding's eight stories are to have a new face of marble. The corner is to be closed and rounded, and on the Olive street Above the second story, the scrubbing brush is to continue the task of renova- lon, and a light color is to supplant the present hue which has resulted from decades of soot. The eighth story is to be demolished, and a new story, the exterior of -vhite terra cotta, is to take its placa.

To Judge Sidener Linseman and Finnegan | stated that they were watchmen at Has- hagen Park, and that as they were coming | down the stairs they heard the fight in | progress. They considered themselves offi- cers of the law and hurried to help queil the disturbance. On their way down, revolver dropped from his pocket. Some- one picked it up and struck him on the forehead, cutting a deep gash. He. was stunned and when he recovered someone struck him and when he recovered from this surprise, found that he had been ar- regiec. . Both declared they did not know that Cabanne, the man with whom they were fighting when arrested, was an officer, be- lieving him to be the person who was creat- in the disturbance. Pney say that the real offenders escaped the notice of the police. The ‘“‘Hill City’’ was advertised to leave the foot of Olive street at 12:10 a. m. and return at 6 a. m. She did néither. This schedule was ostensibly for the pur- pose of giving the theatrical performers at the various parks and resorts time to get through their parta, dress and get to the oat. At the time at which the boat was to leave a few hundred persons were aboard, with not a single actor among them. The boat's whistle bellow thrice to warn laggard ‘“‘professionals” that it was time to hurry. Still none came. A few nondescript stragglers came panting down the levee and leaped aboard. Still the pens oe od was not cast off and the managers explained that they would wait Linseman says, his until 1 o’clock for the theatrical people to show up. Bar Was Open Early. The bar had been opened in the meantime and between 12 and 1 o'clock the crowd con- sumed 15 kegs of beer and merriment pre- vailed. The crowd seemed not to care if the boat never left the dok as long as the beer held out. The management of the excursion had the bright particular stars in vaudeville now in the city would be present.

Then it was discovered that the keg beer had run out and those who had come prepared to spend nickles for their beer and were compelled to buy it by the bot- tle raised a roar that made the bellowing whistle sound like the cry of a sick baby. Bottled beer was 15 cents. But when thirst came there was the alternative and the thirsty ones took care of it. The more’ conservative element among those who had come to commingle with the Thespians fied to the hurricane deck out of the shouts of joy and the discordant songs and did not come forth until daylight broke. Dancing was the feature of the evening. Nothing went but two-step and waltz to time tunes. only method of waltzing tolerated was that known as the “wiggle waltz, danced to the strains of the pas-ma-la.

The peace was dis- turbed occasionally by a ‘“‘rough house.” When, for instance, one young man en- ticed another’s girl away from him. The combatants, however, were usually separ- ated before much damage was done. Whenever such an encounter occurred the women would run affrighted in the di- rection of the fight, screaming lustily, to see if the scrap was a good one. Beauties of Dawn Upon the Water. Dawn on the water is a superbly beautt- ful thing. The stars go out one by one, save the blazing star of the morning.

Gentlemen whe had been mer cups lay upon the deck; weary asleep in close drawn chairs. Every face was yellow and when gentlemen looked into the eyes of her to whom he had made love the night before and for whom he had bought unlimited beer and wiener- wursten, he turned away with a’ shudder. A chorus of young men sat on a dead- light and paraphrased a popular song thus: I surmise if you are wise You'll be careful ef the maiden with the soft- boiled eyes. In little groups here and there sat womén endeavoring to He og 4 such ravages to their beauty as the night had made. In one group were eight women and only one had a pow- dei rag. When she had carefully changed her com- lexion, she handed the rag to her neigh- »or, Who followed her example, and so it went the rounds. The chemical effect of a bowder rag on a faded complex.v/n is mar- velous. The crowd had pushed down to the lower deck, waiting for the gangplank to be shot out. Suddenly there was a scurrying and a woman's scream, Those on the hurricane deck rushed to the edge and looked over. It was liké being in the gallery of a theater looking at a performance on a stage. It was the only real theatrical thing about the excursion. “Spanking” Fight at the Finish. And so the good ship came to port with- Out disaster, much to the discontent of the more strenuous portion of the passengers. But the trip was not to terminate so in- gloriously.

The standard is fixed by the ordinance and milk which dees not meet the requirements shal! not be sold. | Upon the passage of this bill the responsibility will rest upon the city chemist, whose authority is ample for the purpose. If strict- ly enforced the people of St. Louis may have more confidence in the milk they use. The bill ovght ‘to be a complete check to the sale of the impure stuff now distributed by dishonest dealers. A doubtful point, however, is the license of cows. Wil! not such provision be a temptation to sell bad milk to save the cost of license, which, in some cases, may be a ecnsiderable item? ——_-—_--____¢ oe» ee A careful search of the organs discovers no real issue in Mis- souri politics except the offices.

John Retallick, a fire boss at the Cambria Steel Co.'s mine at Johnstown, says that the recent disaster which caused the death of 115 miners was due to blasting, although it was known by the managers that there was danger from firedamp. If this is true, the question will naturally arise, why was blast- ing permitted, under the circumstances? If the prohibition of blasting would probably have saved these lives, who is to ®lame for their sacrifice? It is also claimed that this mine was one of the-best producers of bituminous coal in the district. And mine cwners and share- holders may say that, in order to maintain the rate of profit, blasting was necessary. But this cannot be accepted, in view of the fact that machine mining has long been a success. Mining by machinery run by compressed air is comparatively safe. With @uch machinery there would be little chance for’ the escaping fire- damp to become ignited. The modern coal-mining machine makes a six-foot cutting of 44 inches in four and one-half minutes. On an afternoon, at the mine of Arnott & Co., Pittsburg, a party of gentiemen witnessed one of these machines mine 102 feet of coal, of the thickness of 44 — and six feet in width, and of a total weight of about 70 ns. @ if mine owners can take out 70 tons ot coal with one machine in a single afternoon, what excuse is there for blasting while fire. damp is escaping in dangerous quantities? It is evidently necessary for the state legislatures to impose ~~ tg stringent conditions on mining, in the interest of human e. = = If Congressman Cocper considers al! talk of Cub an annexation brutal, what does he think of the seizure of the Philippines, which are thousands of miles farther from us than Cuba? = = i a NAGGING THE MAYOR _ They have a society out in Denver officially known as the City Improvement fociety, composed exclusively of women. The sole purpose of the society, as explained by the president, is “nagging tho mayor and other city officials.” This is a high and holy purpose and cannot but result in great ‘improvement. , Mrs. Sarah Pleit Decker, the president, says “Denver would be clean and beautiful if the laws were enforced.”’ That sounds familiar. We have heard jt said of St. Louis. But these Denver women have gone after the mayor and pro- q@ose to nag him until he performs his sworh duty and enforces the law. That will be a wonderful spectacle, won't it? A mayor enforcing the law. Prodigious! . War has been declared on billboards and spitting on pavements, A victory has already been won, the biliboards belng removed from in front of the capitol. A little more nagging will “get them out of the public parks. Shade trees are proposed and the mayor and other officials will be nagged until they are planted. This te the way for women to do things. It isn’t a nice way, but no other is productive of results. Inert citizens and indif- ferent officials don't proceed along the reasonable line of duty and G@ppeals to reason do not always move them. But they will often Sct to gei rid of a nuisance. Be the women of Denver propose to make nuisances of them- selves. * What a commentary this ts on the low vitality of municipalities!

One of the most important meetings in st. Louis in 1904 is the World's Tuberculosis Congress, arrangements for which are now being concluded The opinion seemer to be growing among medica! men that con- sumption need no long be a terror. Medical Officer Biggs of the New York Health Department said this week in an adcress before @ philanthropic society: “Tuberculosis is an absolutely prevent. able disease. It is not only preventable, but curable. It is simply & questicn of how early a diagnosis is made. If it can be made at the beginning, 80 per cent at least are curable ir placed in a pure atmosphere.” Dr. Biggs asserts that tubercular baccilli tend to aie. “Direct Sunlight destroys them quickly, daylight in time. The danger is im damp. dark rooms.” * ‘This view is held by most authorities who have rocentiy spoken the subject The difficulty seema be that systematic ass. | r - iss d ge eee ae : ae SVS 6 Pare “4. - 4 ie pe , a LO TL EEE ED EE ee vee Le EE RE Te ope ment is not always obtainable. And this, fit is believed, ts what the World’s Congress, which is ah international organization, will most thoroughly consider. Dr. Biggs’ confident faith in “direct sunlight” and “daylight in time” raises the hope that those who suffer from the discase may obtain relief and perhaps a perfect cure without changing their place of abode. WBiliminate the damp, dark rooms, provide habitations free from dirt, darkness and dampness that invite the disease germe and establish pure, sanitary conditions, and we may expect exemption for all not already affected and prolonged life for those who have been attackéd. SS The mine disaster in Utah appears to have been caused by the explosion of a magazine of gunpewder or dynamite in the mine iteelf. It should be made unlawfu! to store explosives in mines. The magazine should be on the surface and only such small quan- tities of explosive as may be needed for blasts from time to time should be permitted to be taken down. Mining must be made safer. a i Ae re THE WORLD’S FAIR POWERS. The decision of Judge Sanborn of the United States Circuit Court denying the injunction suit to prevent the condemnation of the Tesson- tract for the use of the World's Fair ought to set- tle all controversy as to the power of the Louisiana Purchase Exposition to take land needed for World's Fair purposes. The decision confers full power upon the exposition compang to con- demn land for public uses. in the case of the Catlin tract, whose owners have schemed to obtain advantage over the Exposition managers, railroad leases seem to stand in the way of condemnation proceedings. But some way should be found to obtain that tract, if it is necessary to the success of the World's Fair or to prevent further destruction of trees in Forest Park. Every means should be exhausted, and certainly the company could find means to make it worth while for railroads, if uot property owners, to cease obstructing World's Fair plans. At all events, the remaining trees in Forest Park must be saved. The Exposition managers, with the wide powers conferred upon it by the law and with the power to control enterprises dependent upon it for success, should be able to carry out its plans without destroying the natura! attractions of the public park, freely given it by the city of St. Louis. The St. Louls people will hold the World's Fair management, or any who obstruct the proper plans of the World's Fair, or any who contribute to the permanent injury of the park, to strict accountability. It is incredible that a few individuals or a cor- poration or two should stand in the way of the, interests of a sreat Exposition supported by St. Louis, the United States and ‘ll the states of the Union. Ordinary public spirit should for- ‘a such vicious conduct. ‘n view of Portugal’s friendship for Great Britain during the ‘uth African war, the report that Germany and England will take possession of Portuguese Africa is interesting. = — = i PURE PIRACY, John W.

The game of getting something for nothing is essentially either the game of highwaymen or gamblers. To put the other fellow ‘in the hole’’ and make him give up may be good robbery, but it is not good business and such practices dem»raiize legitimate dealing and lower the tone of the entire business community. ————_—___—_®@ o= Kaiser Wilhelm’s book of sermons and prayers designed to make soldiers and sailors absolutely obedient to any sort of a commander may be a serious matter for other nations.

Now. in those days it came to pass That it was piping hot, And earth became one baking mass, And men a cheeriless lot. A wight of worth went on his way And did his usual stunt, And worked until] the close of day, As was his daily wont. He never thought about the heat, Although it was so hot That men were falling on the street, So grievous was their lot. He still kept up that pace of his, Although a friend or two Propounded that old query: This hot enough for you?” ‘Is He threw his coat and collar by And opened up his shirt, And labored on without a sigh, Though others were inert. “I cannot see why people fuss Aboyt the weather so, For there is nothing ominous About this kind of glow. “Supposing it fs hot,”’ he said, With accent on the “‘is,”’ “I cannot see a thing to dread About the weather wiz.” And so he talked in cheerful wise, While other toilers sweat And sweltered ‘neath the parching ski:>s, With every garment wet. But when he started home at night And saw the @ercury, His visage truly was a fright, So much surprised was he. He saw it still was ninety-eight— Yes, that at 6 o’clock— And, though he late was so elate, He perished from the shock. Ths bully is easily cowed.

Whom some women love they first “make mad;"’ it seems a sort of tyranny the sex prefers. If it were as easy to do as to promise what an easy thing life would be. A man may fall in lpve with a pretty woman and recover, but when it is a very plain woman the case is hopeless. A girl will snub a man she dislikes beyond ardon, but one she likes never beyond the ‘making up” limit. Happiness is, after all, simply content In gala array. The person who has tact in abundance and a certain softness of tongue can work his way to fortune with little effort. To be a good listener is to be a tolerant one. The face; too, must be drilled to mask itself at will. A millionaire’s wife need never wear dia- monds. She can glitter in paste gems and eyes will gape in envy. | To be a philosopher one need not know; one need only be content not to know. Logic is to woman all that intuition is to man. Love, like wine, is all the better by being indulged in moderately. This Summer’s Fashions. This summer we are feeling the influence of not one, but many epochs of the past, and are making use of many suggestions gleaned from old-time portraits or fashion- plates, but the modish woman of today bears little resemblance to her early progen- itors in spite of that fact. Mantilla Scarfs are being worn quite gen- erally in Paris and are gaining favor here, and are delightful and quaintly suggestive of portraits painted when our great-grand- mothers were young. A most charming summer costume of flowered muslin is worn with one of these wraps in black taffeta, and a@ low. broad hat turned left side. The mantilla is reminiscent and is charming. The gown Is made with rather long shouldérs. The hat suits it to per- fection, but compare the ensemble with any wrap and differences by the score appear. We live in an age of progression.

They were content to wear silk shoes with aper soles, to live and know nothing of the oy of a long tramp, to be languid and Ve could no more wear their garments, unchanged, than we could be content to live their lives.

Pacific railroad companies. A rate of $3 has been made for the round trip to St. Joseph, which is less than one- half of the fare one way. That of itself is big enough concession. the railroade believe. But just how such a remarkable induce- ment came to be made is an interesting story. About ten days ago a prominent state official and member of the Jefferson Club called on the general passenger and ticket agent of the Burlington raliroad. “Yours ia the only line,” said this offi- cClal to the railroad man, “‘running to St. Joseph, and you can easily make conces- sions for a great organization like the Jef- ferson Club." This statement was corrected, the pas- Senger agent calling attentior to the fact that the Missouri Pacific was a strong competitor. “Oh,” said the politician, ‘“‘that’s so, too: but, you know, we are not doing business with the Missouri Pacific this year.” And then he winked and continued: ‘You see, the Democrats cannot afford at this time to have it said that they are holding up the railroad companies for passes, but if the Burlington will give us a low rate, I will guarantee that every politician from St. Louts rides on your road.”’ Cannot Beg for Passes Now. ‘Mr. Politician was informed that the Burlington couldn't afford to take snap Judgment even on a rival and above al! would not cut the rate without at least Serving notice on the Missouri Pacific. f “Well, that will be all right,” said the politician, who, by the way. has a guberna- toria] bee in his bonnet, ‘“‘let the Missouri Pacific cut the rate bue we want the Bur- lington to get the business.”’ Before leaving he was informed that the matter would be taken up with the Mis- sourl Pacific officials. A passenger agent of the Burlington was Getailed to sea H. C. Townsend. Mr. Townsend hesitated at first to cut! ® the rate so low as $38, and it was finally agreed to call into the conference Martin Il. Clardy, general attorney of the Mis- souri Pacific and the man who has suc- ceeded Col. ‘‘Bill’’ Phelps as chief pass dis- penser, and John H. Carroll, who looks after the Burlington's legislative interests. Both Mr. Carroll and Mr. Clardy thought| © it would be a good idea to put in a rate so low that the politicians would not humble themselves by begging transportation And so the conference decided to make the rate $3 to St. Joseph. % Meantime, the politician above referred to called on General Passenger Agent Townsend. “Mr. Townsend,” he said, “if you will get this rate for us we will give you al! the business. “I don't care about that,’’ Mr. Townsend is said to have replied; ‘‘that will probably have to be split up to accommdate the crowd.” Railroads Fooled the Politicians. “But,"" continued the statesman, ‘‘the Missouri Pacific has always been very friendly to us and we want to do something to show our appreciation." About an hour later Mr. Townsend walked into the office of his assistant, H. oe Cc.

UNANIMOUS THE LEADER CLAIMS THERE WAS TREACHERY. Result Is a Victory for the Railways, Although Some Concessions in Wages Will Be Made to the Employes. CHICAGO, July 16.—The Association of Railway General Managers, embracing every road which enters Chicago, have is- sued the following signed statement: “All of our old men not before on hand for work, reported at the freight houses at noon today and were put to work. No con- ference was held with any committee or otherwise, since Tuesday and no agreement was made with the union or with any com- mittee. The men simply reported for work and they doubtless expect, and will receive the pay offered July 1, and which the rail- road companies have been willing all along to pay After ten days of strife, the Chicago freight handlers’ strike terminated today in an unqualified victory for the railroads. A meeting of the strikers, presided over by President Curran, resulted in an almost unanimous vote to return to work, leaving the wage scale and ofuer questions for set- tlement between the men and their respec- tive roads. The Strikers Flock Back. At the conclusion of the meeting the strikers went by the hundreds to the warehouses to apply for their old po- sitions and the teamsters who have re- mained out again took up their reins. By noon immense quantities of freight which had been held back for days was being rushed to the railroads, or taken from warehouses and cars. Ww here stagnation had ru:ied commercial activity again reigned. Chicago merchants expressed un- bounded relief at the termination of hos- tilities, but they were ne less ha py when the meh themselves though: the strike is estimated to have cost them §$10,- 000,000, to say nothing of the trade that has been permanently lost to them. The little hall where the meeting of the strikers took place was jammed to suffoca- tion, and thousands were unable to obtain entrance. It was a brief meeting—oniy long enough for an angry speech by Curran and the vote which followed: “Men,” said Curran, “‘we came out like men: we have acted like men and we should not go back like sheep, but there has been treachery In our camp. Yesterday when I was about to use the telephone the wire got crossed and I heard one of the members of our executive committee talking with a railrvued manager. He was encouraging the manager to hold out, for he told him that the strike was almost broken. This is a sample of the faith that has been kept with me. The officials of the truck drivers’ union have not Kept faith, either, and it seems useless to continue the strike further. Shall we go back and ask for our old jobs?’ All Voted to Return. In this simple form the matter was put to a vote and almost immediately a great chorus of ayes had brought to a peaceful end one of Chicago's most serious and threatening labor situations. It was be- lieved the roads generally will allow the trucksters 17 cents an hour and minor con- oe granted by the proposition of uly 1. The proposition accepted by the men was in effeg: the one given to President Curran by the state board of arbitration earlier in the day, although the proposition in its proper form was not placed before the men. The railroad managers, when told of the vote to return to work, said that wherever possible the old men would be taken back. A smail percentage of the new men, how- ever, will be retained for a time, at least. Nowhere was the news of the settlement re- ceived with more pleasure than atthe ware- houses, where thousands of men gathered from other points of the various roads to take the places of strikers, were longing to return to their homes. They had been well Ted and given good sleeping quarters, but the big majority of them, being accustomed to the comfort of their homes, were tired of ‘“‘being herded.’ The strike cost parties concerned fully $10,000,000 and completely paralyzed the wholesale business oO Chicago. —— - = a 9000 WEDDINGS ANNUALLY Ninety~Nine Thousand Licenses Have Been Issued in St. Louis Since 188].

Alte: HEALTH OFFICE DECLARES PUB- LIC IS PARTLY TO BLAME. Assistant Health Commissioner Says Citizens Should Comply With the Ordinance Provisions and As- serts That the Board of Health Is Doing All It Can. Complaints about the collection ot garb- age have multiplied since the present spell of excessively hot weather set in. In some sections of the city residents complain that the Saroage collectors de- clare that the collectors come only at such irregular and !>frequent intervals that it is necessary to go in search of one of the wagons when garbage is wanted removed. Assistant Health Commissioner Francis admits tha: complaints against tho garb- age contractor have increased in number recently hut he declares that «|: possibie steps are take: by the heath department to make the garbage collection service as effective as possible. He says every complaint received is at once transmitted to the garbage contractor and a record kept and submitted to the Board of Health. The Excelsior Hauling Co., of which John R. Butler is president, is the contractor. Mr. Francis says it is almost impossible to make the garbage collection service per- fect, particularly in excessively hot weath- er, and he also declares that the fault is not altogether with the contractor, but partly with the public. The city ordinances do not specify any definite number of trips which the garbage wagons must make daily to any particular portion of the city. Receptacle Must Be Provided. “In a district like De Hodiamont, hardly more than one trip a day can be expected,” he says, ‘“‘owing to the distance from the reduction works. In the downtown districts the wagons can easily make more irips.’’ Mr. Francis calls the attention of persons interested in the subject to «the following provisions of the ordinances: Section 10. Liouseholders and others who offer the garbage for removal, shall place their re- ceptacies on their property near the alley, not more than five feet from the building line and 60 arranged as to be accessible to the driver of the garbage Wagons or carts. If there are not any alleys; or if such alleys are impassible for wagons, then the garbage must be placed in covered wa- ter-tight receptacks on the sidewalk near the street line. ‘‘We find that many complaints arise out of cases wherein persons have not com- plied with this provision,” said Mr. Fran- cis. ‘In cases where there are no alleys a driver looks down a street and seeing no receptacles on the sidewalk does not make that block at all. ‘In other cases the garbage is placed in baskets and other Insecure receptacles that spill a portion of the garbage over the alleys. The contractor's men are required by the ordinance to pick this up. At this season when watermelons are ripe the work of the garbage collectors is increased. “Complainants must remember, too, that only a certain class of men can be hired to drive garbage wagons. When they get paid off about one-third of them fail to show up for work next day, and the driv- ers who aré substituted are not acquainted with the districts or the places where the garbage is placed. This accounts for some of the complaints. “We hand every contractor at once, and feel that the com- pany tries to remedy it as well as possible. The board of health looks over the com- Plaints at each meeting. “Complaints of some kind come in all the year around, but they are always heavier at this time of the year.” Foresters’ League Quincy Excursion.

Te PR? that created the desire to buy, advices of rains exciting such alarm among many of the shorts that for a time they were really strenuous buyers. After the real eager purchasers were filled up the keen edge of the demand disappeared and prices fell back. They will fall back still more if tne legitimate conditions do not shape any bet- ter than they do now. Such short scare aevances as that of today are only good to se on. WHEAT—The government summing up of crop conditions, published in yesterday's Post-Dispatch, indicated generally favora- ble conditions and prospects for winter wheat harvesting, the only complaint of Sprouting in the stack and shock in the Missouri valley, and also sta.ed that gen- eral outiook for spring wheat continued promising. Weather conditions, however, were not so settled this morning, though clear skies in the greater portion of winter wheat territory and Liverpool had only followed pomereee %c decline in this country to the extent of %d. Threatening weather was also reported in England. On the other hand Paris was weak at %@ l%c decline, with splendid weather in France, and receipts at Si. Louis large. Latier were posted as 269,600 bu, against 282,300 bu a year ago. A stronger market in Chicago, where rain was falling and influencing impressionable speculators, was the principal working fac- tor in St. Louis, causing the buying side to be favored, largely by scalpers and ner- vous shorts. September opened 1-l6c bet- ter, at Gc, sold ai (GOI, off to 69\%ec and up to 6944@69%c. uly was freely of- fered at opening for long account and sold at (0c to 69%c, but later 70c was paid. De- ote sold at 71%c to 714@71%c to 71% ‘ . Advices of rains in northern sections of the winter wheat belt kept shorts uneasy, they fearing a return to wet harvest con- ditions, including injury to the quality and delay to the movement. Bradstreet’s re- ort on available supplies was more bear- sh than bullish, but did not exert any jn- uence. Nor did the late cables, which reported Liverpool closing %@%&d lower for the day, Paris %@l\c lower and Antwerp unchanged. Shorts were too much affected “4 the rains and too anxious to get out. They found enough for sale to prevent much of an advance during the forenoon. September sold at 68%c and December a it Is with 71%@7lX%c bid later. July ha 7 bygo bid. Bradstreet’s reported 2,993,000 bu decrease in the world’s visible last week, where a year ago the decrease was 4,442,000 bu. The available east of the Rockies increased 821,- 3 bu more than the regular visible. Pri- mary receipts were 873,000 bu, against 1,- 108, bu one year ago, and shipments 156,- 000 bu against 511,000 bu last year. Clear- ances in flour and wheat were 449,000 bu. Before the shorts got through buying Sep- tember sold at 68%c, but a subsidence of this earnest and even eager demand was followed by a weakening in price, as spec- ulative buying otherwise very light. De- clines elsewhere brought out more sellin and September sold off to %c, closing a 694% @69%ec_ bid. December sold down to H%c and at close 69%c bid. December sold to 11%0 and that asked at close.

Se ere : GRAIN CORNERS BOON 10 FARMERS Growers Profit and Manipu- lators Usually Pail. BIBLE TELLS OF FIRST CORNER JOSEPH BOUGHT UP GRAIN AND DEAL WAS SUCCESSFUL. George H. Phillips, the One-Time Corn King, Says Majority of Corners Work Ruin to Those Who Plan Them. In an interview with George H. Phillips, the at one time so-called Corn King, this interview published in last Sunday's Post- Dispatch, that widely advertised grain speculator expressed himself on grain cor- ners as follows: “Corners. in grain seldom are profitable, or at least remunerative when money and labor involved are considered. The benefit to grain growers is inestimable, the loss of the short seller and the added cost to the consumer going very largely into the possess of the farmer. Many corners have een attempted during the last forty years that have failed as corners, worked ruin to the manipulator and at the same time to a large per cent of those short to the ma- nipulators.’’ n reading up the history of grain cor- ners, or in talking with well-informed au- thorities regarding the formation, course and finish of corners that have been run in grain, it is shown that in nearly every instance where the products of the earth have been cornered, the people who were behind the deals and manipulated the mar- kets came out loser. Even so-called suc- cessful corners have lost money for those who engineered them. The first corner in grain history has any record of was that run by Joseph, the ac- count of which ‘ts published in the Bible. After his dream, which soothsayers de- clared typified seven full and seven lean years, Joseph, who occupied a high po- Rition in Feypt, bought all the grain he could obtain and stored it in enormous warehouses. This grain he held until the lean years arrived, when he had grain to sell, if not to burn, and thus kept his people from starvation. Besides being the first corner of grain on record, this dea! of Joseph's was one of the very few suc- cessful ones ever put through. It was, too, the only grain corner run for the benefit of the many and not for the few. FIRST CORNER ON WHEAT. To come down to modern times, afier speculation in grain futures Trad become recognized by all the leading grain trade organizations, it is found that the first corner was in wheat in the Chicago mar- ket in the year 1867. The price was put to $2.85 in Mav, but the finish was $2.16. J. R Keene, one of the present Wall street lead- ers in stock speculation, tried to run the inarkets of the world in the early 70's in en attempt to corner wheat on the Chicago Board of Trade. but they delivered him nore wheat than he believed was obtain- able when he started the deal and made him quit. The “Jim Keene corner,’ as it ws called, was such a fiasco that it fright- ened would-be manipulators and no at- tempt at corners was made for several years, The next famous wheat corner was the Harper deal of 1887, which broke the Cin- cinnati bank Harper was cashier of and sent Harper to the penitentiary. This was another attemput of an outsider to buck against the Chicago Board of Trade, end all attempts so far from outsiders to run) a deal with that organization fighting it has always Gotten the worst of It. der to beat arper the Chicago Board of Trade directors ordered that all contract wheat inside the chy limits, whether in regular elevators or loaded in cars on the last day of the month, was deliverable upun contracts. Thig decision of the Chicago beard was greatly criticised by the com mercia! world, but it broke the corner and Harper. The gg price reached was 944,.c and the finish was at 68. “OLD HIUTCH’S” CORNER. Tn 1888 B. P. Hutchinson, “Old Hutch,” as he was familiarly called and known tiie world over, cornered September wheat. Fle put the price to $2 and forced the shorts to settle at that price. Although “Old Hutch” was credited with having cleared anywhere from $2,500,000 to 000 by his famous coup, he confessed shortly before his death that he had actually lost $1,250,000. profite in his speculative deal had been more than eaten up by his losses in sales of the actual wheat delivered him on con- tracts. Since then the Coster-Martin corn deal, in which the price was put up to $1, but the corner and its backers falling because more high-priced corn was delivered them than their bank account could stand: the Joe Leiter deal in wheat, which forced the orice to $1.85 in May, and broke Leiter in uly, when the price went to 68\%c; _ the one successful and two unsuccessfu! deals run by George H. Phillips, ending with his failures, and this latest corn corner of Harris-Gates, have developed and passed away. In the St. Louls market a number of cor- ners have been run, but they eee ey of a local character and of decidedly minor importance as compared with the big things | ihe Chicago market turned out. FIRST ST. LOUIS CORNER. The first St.-Louls corner was in oats, run by J. R. Matthews back in the @s. This lost money to both the people who were cornered and the man who did the cornering. A corner in No. 2 white corn manipulated by Nanson, Billingsley & Co.. was a money-maker, but a deal in wheat, which the United Elevator people, D. R. Francis and other leading men were trying to put through, was broken by John C Kauffmann and J. C. Ewald, who had most | the wheat sold and were being squeezed, bringing the wheat here from Toledo and delivering it on contracts. A famous wheat corner in the St. Louis market was run for account of a Mil- waukee grain man named J. B. Oliver. The deal was put through all right, but a “‘cor- ner rule’ that was then in force on the Merchants’ Exchange caused him to lose money. This rule made it obligatory that the selling price should be based upon the natural commercial value of the grain, with a certain per cent added to the price where the contract had not been filled by the ade- livery of the actual grain. In 1875. when a wet harvest had so dam- aged the quality of the new wheat that it was almost impossible to obtain the con- tract grade to deliver on contracts. J. B. M. Kehlor, the millionaire miller, squeezed the bears badly, way Oger to settle at 31.87. This was one of the very few profit- able corners run in St. Louis. MILK BY MACHINE.

In the colonies cows are often milked by ma- chinery. ‘The pract.ce is reading. and in a Nttle while the milkmaid will be no more.

According to “Jiggs’’ Donahue, formerly catcher for McAleer’s Brown Stocking team, Bill Maloney, also catcher for the same team received his notification of re- lease from Manager McAleer last night. Maloney could not be found to confirm the report, but Donahue insists the informa- tion is authentic “When we were in Chicago,’ said Dona- hue, ‘“‘McAleer told me he intended letting Maloney go, as he thought he would be unable to catch any more games this sea- son, owing to the condition of his hand. Maloney was a pretty high priced player and McAleer could not afford to carry him as dead timber. Maloney was yesterday notified that his services would not e re- quired further by the St. Louis team. Donahue says he has also left the team and is dickering with the Milwaukee and Baltimore clubs for a place as backstop. Jiggs has already agre to go to Milwau- kee and has a ‘ticket for that ay He says, at the last minute, that the Baitimore management wired for his terms.

EXCESSIVE SMOKING BLAMED Before Death Resulted His Entire Body Became Hard and White Like Marble. Special to the Post-Dispatch. WOODBURY, N. J., July 1.—George W. lewis, aged 47, is dead at Cross Keys. Mr. Lewis was known as ‘“‘the man turn- ing into stone,’’ and had been a great suf- ferer for 15 years. The case baffled the ablest physicians of this state and Penn- sylvania. Prior to nine years ago Lewis was fre- quently ill, but from appearances there was no particular ailment. Then he found that his fingers were getting stiff, and it was with difficulty that he could move them. This stiffness moved up his arms and soon from the elbows down the flesh hardened until the arms were useless. The skin was drawn tight and his hands became like marble. ‘The prick of a needle was not felt, neither did blood flow from eg cut. The flesh was nearly white, with a marble cast. Four years ago his feet and lower limbs began to harden in the same way. The skin on his face was drawn and he fre- quently said that he felt he was gradual- ly turning to stone. Years ago he was an and he always thought this of his trouble. There was another remarkable feature. The victim got very little sleep. He did not seem to need it.

Special to the Fost-Dispatch. NEW YORK, July 16.—Miss Edna Rhea, daughter of a once wealthy Louisville man, now dead, and whose mother and three sisters, are now visiting in St. Louis, be- came suddenly insane at New Rochelle. Miss Rhea went to New Rochelle to vigit Miss Nana Francis. After dinner, she spent a few hours on the veranda and went to her home at 11 p. m. At midnight, the household was aroused by deafening shrieks and the smashing of furniture. Miss Rhea was found demolishing the bric- a-brac. She was in night dress. After destroying everything she could find and doing about $20 damae aad frignzen- ing the women nearly into hysterics, Miss Rhea jumped from the second-story win- dow to the lawn and fled down the street, tearing her hair and screaming. Somebody telephoned to the police and Pa- trolman Myers and Brown chased Miss Rhea several blocks before they captured her. She fought them all the way to the olice station and, after they locked her n a room, she climbed the ehandelier which came down with a crash. For sey- wterate smoker as the cause ,eral hours, while in the police station. she sang “Holy, Holy, Holy, Amen,"’ and wanted to make the police members of a college fraternity which she called the WU. a * } Miss Rhea desired to remain in New York and arranged to visit Miss Francis at New Rochelle. The police say they have information that leads them to believe that her insanity is due to unreciprocated affection for a young man in this city. Mrs. Hannebran of No. 71 Irving Place says that, s.nce Miss Florence Khea left her house two weeks ago, Miss Edna Rhea har grown more nervous dally. When she started for New Rochelle, she told Mrs. Hannebran that she felt that she was about to have a siege of illness. SNEAK THIEF'S DARING DEED Slipped Money Drawer Containing $5000 in Securities From Office Where Fifty Persons Were Congregated.

GLENVIEW GOLF COURSE, Iil., July 16.—Steady, soaking rain prevailed over the Glenview links when maich play for the amateur championship was called this morning, with prospects that it would con- tinue all day. The course, in consequence, was much slower than yesterday, the ball clinging to the closely cropped turf of the greens and fair greens in a way that was madden- ing at times, and making par golf almost out of the question. The brilliant galleries which were a feat- ure of yesterday's play were ‘noticeably ab- sent this morning and with but one or two exceptions the players tru around the rain-soaked course accom by no one but their caddies and the official scorers. Small crowds were attracted b: Travis, Mr. Ormiston of Pittsburg, Travis medal score in yesterday's quali- fying round, and one or two of the younger western getters, and in spite of the down- our trudged over the course with their avorites. Thirteen players who tied 9 for the last two places in the qualifying lst played off the tie before matc play b n i ing. uls James, a Gleavinw who has made a medal score of course, and O. C. Fuller of Milwaukee were the fortunate ones, and were paired with Maturin Ballou ef Appawamis . Leslie of Skokie, respectively. Both Fuller and James won in fours, James holding a 12-foot put and Fuller going down from the edge. of the green. William Waller, former western champion; Walter B, Smith, Warren Dickinson of Iowa and T. D. Hoop. er of Nassau were among the 13. The rain ceased entirely before 10 o’clock and a strong southwest wind quickly dried the course. This did not improve condi- tions, however, the wind being so strong FT’ FOLLOWERS “ARE SCARCE NOW His Sparring Partners, How- ever, Think He Still Has Knockout Blow. | Special to the Post-Dispatch. a , SAN FRANCISCO, July 1446.—Ten days re . main before the fight for the heavyweight championship of the world takes place at San Francisco.

It was the blind horse's maiden race. Never before had he faced a starter, and his owner had entered him against ae any one of which could trot a mile in 231 or faster.

WHY FRIAR CASE IS DELAYED SETTLEMENT WOULD BE EASY If WISH WERE GRANTED. Religious Question Is Looming Up as Important, Because of Negotia- tions and May Be Factor in Next Campaign. Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, July 16.—Well informed sources affect to see that Pope Leo's vati- can advisors are endeavoring to secure formal recognition from this government. That it is stated in both Catholic and Protestant circles, is the main object be- hind the delay in complying with the con- ditions laid down by Gov. Taft to the vati- can. It is asserted that if the vatican could secure some sort of recognition as a power from President Roosevelt, there would be no difficulty in completing the negotia- tions to the satisfaction of the administra- tion. It is realized by the President and by his cabinet that such recognition is impossi- ble. It would inject immediately into poll- tics a religious ssue that would be suloid«l to any set of men, no matter of what po- litical party. Of course, no such steps could be taken by the President without the consent of qongress, and it is appreciated here that ° ess is firmly wedded to the separation of church and state as laid down in che constitution. Shrewd Republican politicians see trouble enough ahead for their party in the settlement of the Friar question in the i a i ee rar SS aaa Philippines as things are today. It was predicted today by one of the most prominent men in the epublican that before next November the question of. reciprocity for Cuba, no eases what the) President may say or do during his swings | around the circle, will be entirely over- | shadowed by the friar question and by the issue of tariff gevision. The negotiatiodns now progressing so un- satisfactorily at the Vatican between Gov. Taft and the Pope will tend, these roph- ets say, to ore the religious question dl- rectly into politics in the coming cam- — Taft has been instructed to insist that the friars shall be removed from the archipelago. The Vatican has refused to remove them, assenting their right to stay under the Paris treaty of peace. Already there has been a meeting of Catholics in this country to protest against the Roosevelt policy of expeliing the friars. If the policy of expulsion is not persisted in. or {f a compromise is made, allowing other religious officials of different char- acter to replace the friars now there, the anti-Catholic element in politics will be displeased. It is asserted that the President is be- tween two very sharp horns of a dilemma, and that a will = injury to his party whatever the result may be. There is no tendency to discuss the mer- ite of the hestitation. That is left to the President and to the ecclesiastics. What the politicians say is that the whole affair is unfortunate.

PAT GARRETT OF TEXAS, RELIEF SOCIET HAS NO TREASURY —_ FAIR WORKMEN INSURE THEM- SELVES BY NOVEL PLAN. PAY AFTER EACH ACCIDENT Paymaster Takes Money From Men’s Wages and Distributes It to Those Injured. Employes of the Goldie Construction Co., one of the concerns holding large contracts on the World’s Fair site, have organized a mutual benefit association without officers and without a treasury, through which they expect to relieve those of their number who are injured tn the accidents which will be inevitable in the building of the Fair, and to provide for the families of those who may be killed. Nearly all the men working for the com- pany have signed an agreement by which each member is to pay $1 to the family of any fellow workman who is killed, and 60 cents to anyone who has been injured in such a manner as to incapacitate him. The paymaster of the company will make the retior payments, taking the money out of each man’s wages at the next pay after the accident. No dues are exacted from members, and the advantages claimed for the plan are that the money cannot be wasted on the organization, and is always payable at the time when it is needed by the injured per- son or the bereaved family. Members who cease to be employed direot- ly by the company are dropped from the as- sociation at the same time that their names are removed from the payroll. Injuries which the employes receive be- fore starting to work in the morning or after leaving work at night will not entitle them to benefits. Those who are =| pe while under the influence of liquor will get no relief. In cases where men without accessible relatives are killed the money will be used for funeral expenses. Stewards are to be chosen to solicit new members. They will be the nearest ap- roach to officers that the organization will Cave. The paymaster does all the disburs- ing. fF FE.

SHERIFF Tells the Post-Dispatch Correspondent the True Story of the Hunting Down and Killing of the No- torious Border Desperado. Special] to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, July 16.—Patrick J. Gar- rett, the New Mexico sheriff who hunted down and killed the notorious outlaw, “Billy the Kid,” is visiting New York for the first time in his life. He was appointed collector of customs at El Paso, Tex., last winter. Recently he and some cattlemen locked horns over the question of his ap- praisement of some yearlings. The Board of General Appraisers was appealed to, and the collector will argue his case against the importers tomorrow. : The-former sheriff, who is staying at the Marlborough, is looking around New York by himself mostly. Garrett amazed the crowds at Coney Ie- land by his workmanship at the shootin: galleries. He hit the bull's eye at any sho — has almost bankrupted the proprie- Pen Portrait of the Noted Texan. He is very tall and very straight, and looks sturdy and strong in every inch of his six feet four. His manner is subdued and he talks in a low tone and most mod- ay when the conversation is about him- self. To the direct question, “Sheriff, how many notches are there on your gun?’ he biushed like a schoo! girl, and said: “Oh, they are only scratches. They were all accidents, mine were.”’ It was twenty-one years ago that Billy Bonney, with a record of killin eleven men, was brought to book by this quiet, determined man. Garrett was a Soputy sheriff in Las Cruces. He had kept a smal] store in the new country, and on occasions had sat opposite ‘Billy the Kid” at the poker table. The outlaw, whose exploits were the talk of the country then, as Tracy’s are today, had associated with him a gang of six men who broke every law and defied all authority. “We had got the gang,” said Garrett. to the ost-Dispatch correspondent when pressed to tell the true story of how he killed the outlaw. ‘“‘Three were dead and three were alive. Billy had murdered a man on the Indian reservation while steal- | ing horses, and he was sentenced to be anges on May 28, 1881. He broke out of the Lincoln County jail a few nights be- fore that and escaped after killing a dep- uty sheriff and a United States marshal I was sent after him. Face to Face With the Outlaw. “On the night of July 12 I got to Peter Maxwell's ranch. I left my two men out- side and went-in to see Maxwell, whom I knew well. Feter was lying in bed in a corner. I put my Winchester against the wall and sat down on the bed to talk with him. I told him I had heard that Billy had been seen around there. He said he hadn't seen him. I knew by his manner that he wasn't telling the truth, and while we were sitting there talking Billy came in. “He had gone across the road, I learned afterward, and ordered a Mexican thers te get up and make him some coffee. When he came back to the ranch house he saw my two mea and accosted them in Span- ish. They made no answer, and he darted into the house and upstairs in his stocking feet. My face was in a shadow when he appeared in the doorway and he darted over to me with his knife in one hand and hie gun in the otf%er. He had his gun with- in a foot of me when he laid his hand on my knee and demanded, ‘Who are you?’ “He spra back instantly and fired. But I had fired first, and the tall went throu his heart. I tired a second time, but t bullet went over him. He had fallen: “A hundred different stories have been told about hew I killed Billy, but this is the true one. I’ve got a tintyye of Billy at home, the only one in existence, I believe, and as I was on the way to the train I left it at a photographer's to be enlarged, for Gen. Lew Wallace, who wants to write an article about him. ‘‘There were many ou traits about Billy, e came from New York State somewhete. e was only 22 years old when he died wut he had been up to all kinds of deviltry for six or seven ‘years. He wasn’t what you'd call a killer. He never made a gun play he didn’t mean, and he never shot up a town or committed any such foolishness. I've inet worse men than Billy.”’ Garrett discussed Tracy, the Northwest- ern bandit, and inquired with much interest if it was true that he had been wounded. a hen . “A man with nerve with a n fi 2% who are after him.” = “os Garrett said he had heard that “Bat’’ Masterson, whom he knew in Dodge City pons? ago, was fined for carrying a pistoi n New York, and the former sheriff ex- pressed no sympathy for him. “I never carry a gun,” he sald. “M 44 ig upstairs in my ipsack, and will stay there.

The collector said that when there was trouble in Washington last December over his appointment he had a little talk with President Roosevelt which wend something like this: “Garrett, they say you're a drunkard?’ “It isn't.true, Mr. President. But I've been drinking all my life.”’ “You're charged with being a gambler?’ “I know the difference between a straight and a flush, Mr. President, and in my sec- tion of the country a man who doesn’t know this doesn’t know enough to keep the flies off in fly season.” “I'm told you're an atheist fidel?’’ “I have pronounced views on some sub- jects, Mr. President, but I know enough they don't agree with the men around me.” Garrett was appointed, and now he thinks Mr. Roosevelt is the best and broad- est allround President this country ever had. He said so yesterday when he told with regret how his duties as sheriff kept him from taking out a company of rough riders to — the colonel's regiment.
