He Takes the Brooklyn Handi cap in 2 :07m. Navarre Was Second, Sir Walter Finishing Third. WEST AGAINST EAST. Clifford, Western Favorite, Sir Waiter the East's. Largest Crowd Ever Assembled for This Event. Gravesend Race Track, Brooklyn, May 15. A better day could not have been selected for the opening of the racing season in the east; for with the Bun roe not a cloud and the air was warm and clear. The Gravesend track was in perfect condition. The great Brooklyn handicap id the fourth ou the cardandshouid.be ruti shortly after 4 o'clock in the afternoon. Tuere was trouble among the army of men who go to the trac daily during the training season; for they were wiinout the usual free passes as the new jockey club had decided that pusses were to be issued only to those whose business obliged them to be at the track and the swarm of tents alleged jockeys and broken down Biorts had the fact staring them in the face that they would have to pay to see the racing. The city is full of western and south ern sporting men, who have come on to back the western horses, and curiously enough three of the favorites come from that section. Cliffori was the choice of a maj -rity from the "west and Sir Walter from the south. In former races there has been a large crowd of hangers on at the track, who were waiting to see how they could manage to lemain through the racing, but none of them were to be seen today. The guards were put on early, and the annoying touts, who have heretofore Bwurmni over the track to the disgust of the respectable race goers could not be seen. The grand stand was as clean as a new pin, and in the morning sunlight the grass looked like velvet. The Crowd lome Slowly. It was not until noon that there was even a decent showing of spectators iu the grand stand, and the arrivals up to that time had been slow; a new expe rience for the Jockey club, as heretofore at noon the seata had been well tilled. On the outside were hundreds who had had free access to the track, and they were trying in every way but paying to get admittance. Touts were halted at the entrance even after they had bought tickets and were told that they were not wanted in side. One new rule of the Jockey club was working in earnest to the great dis gust of those whom it affected. The absence of complimentary tickets for ladies also had its effect on the gen eral appearance of things and the grand stand was chiefly occupied by men, the abseuce of well dressed women being particularly noticeabla At 1:15 p. m. the trains began to come in at more frequent intervals and the grounds were tilling up. The horses were ready for the race. The track had been wet down and rolled, so that it was in prime condi tion. The owners of the candidates seem to be confident of winning, and each has his own particular idea as to when his horse is going to break the bars down. Taylor declares that they will have to beat 2:07 to get ahead of Sport, and says this horse is fit to run for his life. Doggett saya that he will win by three lengths with Sir Walter; and Foster de clares that Dr. Rice ia sure to carry off the money. The Clifford partisans are sure that they will win and Byron Mc Clelland thinks Henry of Navarre is a winner. Taylor says Ajax has no chance whatever and that Clifford will quit as soon as the stretch is reached. And that is the way stories go. It is conceded the most open race since the handicap was lirst run and the record may go when the victor passes the line. The Udd Po.teI. From one o'clock on the attendance in creased rapidly, and it was not long be fore the grand stand was full of people as it could be. Nothing was left but standing room at 2 o'clock. The record of book-makers was broken for 112 weighed iu, the largest previous record being 109. Long before the time for posting the odds arrived, the betting ring was thronged so that the moving about was difficult, 'lhe book-makers began laying odds on the handicap as follows: Sir Walter 2V straight and even for place; Clifford 3,1 and even; Banquet 10 to 4; lon Alonzo 20 to 8; Dr. Bice 6 and 2; Herald 40 and 12; Ajax 8 and 3; Sport 12 and 4; Diablo 51) and 15; Comanche 40 and 10; Copyright 40 and 12; Biitzen 100 and 3o; Lowlander 40 and IS; Loan taka 00 and 20; Bassetlaw 30 and 12; Henry of Navarre 7 and 2. At 1:40 p. m. it was estimated that 30, OOt) spectators were preseut and the trains were coming in rapidly, adding largely to the number. The infield was filled with carriages and not an inch of pace was left along the rail. It was the largest crowd ever seen at the handicap. Air. Dwyer withdrew Don Alonzo from the list of starters at 2 p. m. A little later Loanlakaand Hermitage were both withdrawn. K iein( Be;la.

The sheriff has twenty deputies with him and will make arrests after the handicap. He has sixty warrants, it is said. The judges, Victor Smith, R. W. Sim mons and C A.

New Yokk, May 15. Howe Hum mell, attorney's for Bookmaker DeLacey has given out the in forma' .km that there will be no races at Gravesend today. They have applied to Justice Walsh for a warrant for the arrest of Phillip J. Dwyer and others for conducting a lot tery on the grounds of the Brooklyn Jockey club The action is based upon the recent decision of Judge Pryor that the Ives law which permitted pool selling on the race tracks, was unconstitutional and the nature of special protection .to lotteries. De Lacey's move is in the interest of the bookmakers who were hard hit by the Pryor decision. Justice Walsh issued the warrant and an officer was sent at once for Graves end to serve it Later. Just before the first race was run an officer appeared at the Graves end track and notified President P. J. Dwyer that a warrant had been issued for his arrest and told him that he must appear before Justice Walsh in Brook lyn tomorrow morning to answer. No arrests of bookmakers was made.

The United States to Dm-ind Keparatloa for the Murder of Wilson. Bluefields, April 28. Via New Or leans, .May 15. Within 48 hours over 100 inhabitants, mostly Creoles have left this place for San Audreas and other is lands to await the result of the revolu tion, which appears imminent In all about 800 people have fled. Business is almost at a standstill. Min ister Baker's arrival here on the 27, on board the San Francisco, was hailed with delight There are today more than 150 Nicaraguan soldiers upon the bluffs. Their dismassal is constantly promised, but no sooner does one band leave than another springs up in its place. NICARAGUA MUST ME PUNISHED If She Docs Not Punish the Murderer of the American Wilson. New Yokk, May 15. The Herald's Washington dispatch says: The adminis tration has no intention of going to war with Nicaragua, but the murderer of the American, Wilson, in Bluefields must be punished, and proper indemnity given to the family of the dead man. This is the conclusion of the president After thorough investigation the authorities are satisfied that the killing of Mr. Wilson was noth ing short of a brutal murder, and that the Nicaraguan government has not dis played the proper spirit towards the United States in Beeing that the perpe trator is brought to justice. Before the president's departure on Saturday evening, additional instruc tions to Captain Watson and to Minister Baker, making certain positive demands upon Nicaragua for redressing the wrongs perpetrated upon American citi zens, were prepared. It is also under stood that Captain Watson has been in structed to laud a force of sailors and ma rines under certain contingencies. For the time being the question of control over the Mosquito territory is subordinate to that of reparation for the murder of Wilson. The administra tion wants this matter set tled quickly. If Nicaragua displays the proper spirit of the administration, it is believed, will do all it can consist ently to favor her complete sovereignty over the Mosquito coast, but until the whole matter can be settled through legitimate diplomatic methods the ad ministration will have only one purpose in view, and that is to fully protect Americans and American interests in Bluefields. Ovsrmyer Iid .ot o. David Overmyer has not gone to Leav enworth to try the Sanders train stealing case. He has decided to let tha other attorneys attend to the preliminary hear ing themselves.

HE'S QUITE CONFIDENT That There Will Conviction. Be wNo Sanders' Intentions In Case He is Released. Leavenworth, May 15. The hearing of the case against John Sherman San ders has been postponed until 4 p. m. United States Attorney Perry has been delayed by a small wreck and can't get here. Joseph Waters and W. C. Webb of To peka, are here to attend the case. David j Overmyer had not arrived this morning. Captain J. C. Waters in an interview j said: "We propose to try this case on its merits. These meu are not guilty. They are forced to quit work or take jobs awav from men of I families. 1 hey would work here or anywhere, but they would be rob- f bing some family. and they won't do that This party is composed of Republicans, and the most of them are good men' and good work- men. Sanders is guilty of no crime against the United States. lie has not Violated the 'interstate commerce law. He would have had to be a railroad to I have done that We shall ask no clem eucy from the government for it will not hav a single witness put on the stand to prove it These men are not strikers or disturbers in the general sense. Balie Waggener without auy desire of justice got them off his line. We intend to make a manly defense and will win." Expect to Leave This Week. General Banders says ho expects to leave Leavenworth with his men the last of this week, but that he has no inten tion of going on foot. He was confident, he said, that the cases against the army would' be dismissed, and then the journey eastward would be continued. He said that the people of Leavenworth need not have any fear on account of the presence, of the army in this vicinity. Tne men were as anxious to proceed on their mission as the people were to get rid of them. "We will only be here a short time after Uncle Sam gives us our liberty," he said, patting United States Marshal Neely on the back.

Asked how he expected to Take his men away, General Sanders saia tnat a committee from the Trades' Union of Leavenworth was at work on a scheme to charter the "Belle of Brownville," a ferryboat that has been on the Missouri river from a time whereof the memory of man runneth not to the contrary. Ac commodations can be provided on the boat for about 400 men, and if the army should grow aud General Sanders ex- i I K1 I. nun V. n KliiH nf pects it to do sp barges can be built at a small expense for the rest of the army. General Sanders proposes to pro ceed down the Missouri river to St Louis, thence down the Mis sissippi river to the Ohio, and from there up to Cincinnati. The gen eral expects to go over the Baltimore and Ohio railroad from Cincinnati to Wash ington. The "Belle of Brownville" is now owned by Captain James W. Mor gan. Captain Morgan is the man who was attacked by Benson, the murderer, while officiating as death watch to the latter in the Leavenworth county jail. He has a very through understanding of the Missouri river. Two of Them Locked Up. Two of "General" Sanders' men are locked up in the Leavenworth county jail. Their names are James Cunning ham and U. W. Concannon. These men became insubordinate, aud absolutely refusing to obey jthe orders of their "general" or of United States Mar shal Neely, the latter had them marched to the county jail and locked up. When Sheriff Rotheuberger asked for commit ment papers. Marshal Neely told him to hold them, as he had general charges to make against them. No restraint is placed around the camp of the industrials and they are allowed to visit the city at will. THE CAMP AT LEAVENWORTH. Sanders' Arrar Manifests Discontent at His Freqaent Absence. The Sanders army seems to be doing reasonably well in Leavenworth in spite of the fears of the men before they left here. Last evening's Standard says: "All day yesterday HJamp Sanders' drew almost as well as a circus. The Third street tablished a electric line, which has es- j will leed tnem anu tase mem to v.ney stopping. place near the enne. camp, carried o.oOO passengers yester day and it is safe to assume that fully three-f Aurths of these saw the 'army.' It is estimated that fully 2,000 more either walked or drove to the camp. "Where Two Mile creek empties-into tho river and for some distance up the former stream the laud is flat and toler ably well shaded. A better spot for an industrial army camp couid not have been selected on the reserve. The river runs by it and Two Mde creek through it, making sanitary couduious excelleut The water used for drinking and cooking purposed is furnised by Martin Donovan under contract "The men are ferved with rations somewhat after the true army style. Marshal Neely furnishes the rations and officers distribute them. The food is all bought iu this city. Ice cream and pie are not included in the bill of fare, yet the boys seem to be doing pretty well on what they are getting. Asked what the "army" had for breakfast this morning one of the men said bacon and beans, coffee and bread. For the noon meal potatoes were added to the bill. "In camp the men seem contented, but there exists an under current of dissatis faction and unrest The leader, "Gen- eral" Sanders, is absent too much from among his men. Half of the time they don't know where he is or what he pur poses to do. They are "going it blind," as it were. At noon today the "general" had not put in his appearance at camp, and the men were uneasy. Last night he put up at the National hotel. When the reporter asked a number" of the men regarding the whereabouts of their leader they an swered by saying they had seen but lit tle of him since coming here. It was stated by some that he probably went to Topeka this morning. The "army" would be in much better spirits if "Gen." San ders would spend his time with them and keep them in touch one with the other. When he leaves camp and stays away so much of the time the men claim the same right to be absent also at will. "The. people -of Leavenworth are not mixing and sympathizing with the 'In dustrials' as the people did at Topeka. So strong were the bonds of sympathy being forged there, that a delay of an other day in the removal of the prisoners to this city would have been dangerous. Crowds of men and women visited them daily, and carried flowers and good things to eat. The men were loaded into the cars and hustled off to Leavenworth before their sympathizers were apprised of their removal. While the camp wa-j thronged with visitors yesterday, there were no donations of cukes aud flowers. And again the visitors had just curiosity enough -to pass along and look at the camp and then go home. There is really nothing of Interest to be seen." MUsTLET Til EM GO. The "Botky Mountain tiv-w" on the San- drs Train Seizing Car. From the Denv" Xews. The arrest of Sanders and his indus trials by the United States marehitl was without proper authority; they had vio lated no United States law. If any offi cer of the Missouri Pacific made affidavit that they had violated some .federal atat ute he very probably committed perjury. Of course gome affidavit was made, or the clerk of the United States court would not have issued a warrant It probably charged them with obstructing the United States mails. Such a charge cauuot be sustained for j a moment Sanders took empty coal cars j for the ride. If mail trains were delayed, j it was because the company ditched en f gines and cars across the track to inter- L-i i nr anntc anil T r i 11 11 t fin 1 1 j i r uiaces for the same uurnose. There is not a question but that Sanders would have side-tracked at any station to allow the mail train to pass if it had been de sired. Those who obstructed the mail were the agents of the Missouri Pacific company; aud thej' can't saddle that offense upon Sanders. It is doubtful If there is any state or federal law that meets the case. It is uot larceny, for the intent to steal the cars did not exist either when they were seized or at any time during the trip. They did intend to deprive the company of the use of them for a time; that is all; and that has never been larceny un- i aiAu limb n a Yder anv statute. So far as the Missouri Pacific cars are concerned, they were never taken out side of the company's line: nor off of its property; nor was it ever intended that they should be. In law it is precisely as though a stranger had entered anoth er man's pasture lot, aud jumped astride his bronco, should ride him around in the presence of the owner and against his loudest protest the intruder not intend- 1 1 I J .1 3 to take him outside the held at any time. There would not be the shadow of larceny in such an act. There would be a trespass, but only such a one as might be sued for in a civil action. It would not be a criminal trespass. There is not a provision in Colorado's statutes under which Sanders or his men could be pun ished; nor is there any in the federal statutes, unless it be that of obstructing the mails; and of that they are not guilty. WOULDN'T DESTROY PROPERTY. The Union Pacific Decides Not to Ditch Engine Etc., Green River, Wyo., May 15. On ad vice of President Clark it was decided here not to risk destruction of the Union Pacific's property in an attempt to check the industrials' train and the project to block Green River bridge with loaded cars and engines was abandoned. When the train arrived here 200 men strong at 3:15 a. m. Marshal Rankin with 20 deputies well armed, was waiting for him. As soon as the train stopped train master Hay jumped on the engine and ran it to the round house. The common wealers left the car3 and have gone into camp. Fires will be drawn from all en gines and the industrials kept here. HEALERS tiET UGLY. Two Hundred In Wyoming Drinking and Went to he Arret:eI. Green River, Wyo., May 15.

Shall 150,000 Men Eesume Their Toil, Or Are Gloomy Times Ahead in the Labor World. -Cleveland, May 15. The concensus of opinions among miners and operators today before the conference met, was that the result of the meeting would be naught. The conference convened at 2 o'clock in Case hall. '1 he scale commit tee of miner met in Bunk's hall at 10 o'clock and the operators assembled in conference at the Weddell House at 11 o'clock. Secretary McBride says that their motto is and will continue to be, "One for all, and all for one." If one section goes to work, all will go to work aud under no other conditions can the mines be operated. What is the coucern of one is the concern of all. The men felt that right aud justice are on their side and that defeat can come only as the result of treachery to themselves. The scale committee in its report, has endeavored to adjust difference in rates for mining in a manner to work" no in justice to the mines of one section as compared with another. The demand is for the wages paid before the reduc tions were made last fall and winter. How Peaanay Ivenii Minn Stand. The corridors at the Weddell house were thronged with the coal operators during the entire day until the con ference was called to order. Innumera blo caucuses and discussions were held, while the air was filled with rumors of every conceivable kind. The principal topic of interest during the morning was the probable attitude of the Pennsylvania operators. Mr Alex ander Dempstor of Pittsburg who tor many years had beeu the president of the big conferences between the miners and officers and who is regarded as one of the clearest headed and best posted men in the assemblage, was interviewed on this subject by a reporter of the Associated Press. Mr. Dempster will not be the president of this convention, and that fact is itself significant of the situation. "Will the Pennsylvania men go into the convention?" Mr. Dempster was asked. "Yes." "How long will they stay? "That I cannot say." "What is the attitude of the Pennsyl vania men today at the convention?" "Their attitude is the same us it always was. They have decided that they will not treat with Mr. McBride on auythiug like a national basis. Mr. McBride has declared that he will not abide by a de cision on any other grounds. Now then it is a question of what he will concede, if anything. He must concede some thing, or the convention will fail from the start." No Chance of Settlement. Mr. Osborn of the Osborn Coal com pany said: "There is no chance that I can see of anything like a like a settle ment of this question within a day or two at least. In fact I do not see how they can ever reach a settlement on any basis. A rumor that coal had fallen 50 cents a ton in Chicago today and that boats were bringing coal down the lakes, caused quite a stir among the operators at the Weddell. Had Not Met at 3 O'clock. The delegates to the conference of miners and operators were slow in gath ering at the convention hall and at 3 o'clock the meeting had not yet been called to order. OUTWITTING THE MINERS. Coal ltelnj; Brouglit From Foreign Land? to Supply the Deimnd. New Yobk, May 15. There have beeu 50,000 tons of England and Nova Scotia coal sold to arrive in New York, a por tion of which has already been shipped from Cardiff, Liverpool and Glasgow, and from Sidney, N. S. W. The cost is within 45 to 5) cents per ton of the ordi nary price of soft steamer coal delivered alongside New York. The bulk ojC this has been taken by the companies sup plying steamers to fill their contracts.' There are negotiations on foot for the purchase of 10 i.OOJ tons more to be de livered here between the first and tenth of June by the same parties foe the same purpose. From this fact it is in ferred that the companies intend fight ing the strike to the finish, lhe present low rates of ocean freights make it pos sible to bring coal from England in un limited quautities. Au agent of one of the leading coal companies, which supplies the foreign steamships with their coal for the return trips, and a member of the produce ex change, has bought much of the above purchases by cable, and say the rates of freight paid ou ttieiu consist only of the cost of loading and discharging the coal, and says they will continue to import coal until the strike is ended. Miff-rinj; at Irontburg, M l. Prostbckg, Md., May 15. The miners strike has alreudy had a depressing effect upon Frostburg. Fully 1,800 men in this aud surrounding towns are idle and a large number of families are on the verge of suffering. The miners claim they can control the situation in the face of some of the mines continu ing to work. They hold that a coal fam ine will raise the price of coal in the market and that this will restore the 50 cent rate. The Strike In Kentucky. Russellville, Ky.. May 15. One i thousand and five hundred miners em ployed in the coal fields of Ohio and Muhlenburg counties are idle.

Tho army was ordered by the authorities here to move at 12 o'clock, which it d.d, leaving five boats behind, two for provision-, and three containing the ball team, which played this afternoon with a picked nine here. Kelly says that when he arrives at Keokuk he will lash his boats together Into a huge raft, place bulwarks on the side aud hire a tug to pull him to Quincy, Illinois. He will remain there several days. The army is in the best shape it has been since leaving Council Bluffs.

J ALTERNATE PAGE FOLLOWS STATE JOTXRNATj, TUESDAY EVENTING. MAY 15, 189. 4 3 a SUGARSSUBJECTS. The Senate Discusses the Tariff Amendments, Which Affect Their Favorite Commodity Suar. TIIEY NEEDED A REST. Senators Become Weary and Sa Adjourned. VP ashikcton. May 15. The aeventa week of the tariff debate in the sen ate begfan at 11 o'clock yesterday wit a fair attendance on the floor. Twft bills, one to pension the widow of Hear Admiral Donald MacXeal Fair fax at the rate of $100, and the other to increase the pension of the widow of Major General Doubleday to $100, were reported and placed on the cal endar. After some business of no general importance was dispatched the tariff bill was taken np. The question was on Mr. Aid rich's motion to make the duty on alum six-tenths instead of four-tenths of a cent ad valorem. Mr. Lodge opposed the amendment. Mr. Hale also spoke. Mr. Butler said speeches were being made merely to kill time, to which Mr. Chandler re sponded: "Better kill time than in dustries." The amendment was tabled "23 to 17. Mr. Aldrich moved to substitute five-tenths for four-tenths. Mr. Higgins, Republican, Delaware, replying- to the insinuation of Mr. Butler, that the Republicans were en gaged in a time killing contest, de clared the Republicans were in no wise responsible for the delay. The Aldrich amendment was tabled. Mr. Piatt, Republican, Connecticut, said that despite the fact that for years this chamber had rung with a Democratic denunciation of the sugar trust, the Democrats, save an except ing one, had agreed, so he under stood, in caucus to vote for a prohibi tive duty on refined sugars. Surely Democratic reformers must be hard driven when thev were forced to swallow the words and opinions of. years. Mr. Piatt's observations on the sugar trust ruffled some of the Demo- crats, and he was soon engaged in a controversy. The discussion of the sugar schedule was adroitly diverted by Senator Vest Into a debate about American wages. Finally Mr. Gallinger, Re publican of New Hampshire, got the floor and proceeded to read, for the benefit of his political adversaries, the editorial opinions of some of the great Democratic dailies denouncing the surrender of Democratic princi ple made in the Jones amendments. At the conclusion of Mr. Gallinger's remarks the Jones- amendment, fixing the duty on alum at 4-10 of a cent, was agreed to without division, as was the next Jones amendment, fix ing the duty on carbonate of am monia at 20 per cent; muriate of Eulammoniac at 10 per cent and sul phate of ammonia at 20 per cent. The next finance committee amend ment, fixing the djty on bone char suitable for decolorizing sugar at 20 per cent, was also agreed to. Mr. Aldrich offered an amendment to the next paragraph to sub;titute 1 cent per pound on chalk and its pre parations, for the duty of 20 per cent in the bill. This was defeated. It was then 5:50 o'clock, and Mr. Allison suggested an executive session, while Mr. Jones suggested the senate sit an hour longer. Mr. Harris, who had charge of the bill, arose and with cut ting sarcasm rejected both sugges tions. "In view of the fact," said he with the triphammer deliberation so char acteristic of him, "that the senate has only consumed one hour in the discussion of this article on which the eyes of the Republicans are fixed with such intense interest the article of chalk I think the United States sen ate should take a rest and I move the senate adjourn. Accordingly at 5:55 the senate ad journed. Retaliatory Datlee. Washington, May 15. Senator Davis yesterday gave notice to an amendment to the tariff bill providing for retaliatory duties upon silks, vel vets, plushes and laces and all manu factures of these articles and also upon dice, draughts. chessmen, billiard goods, dolls, toys, brandy and other spirits manufactured from grain, champagne and still wines, against countries imposing discriminating du ties upon grain or its product or other agricultural productions exported from the United States.

The best people of ""XexlHgton and" Fayette Counties, including several hundred Lladies, -turn ed..out. yesterday to- the anti- Breckinridge meeting at the opera house. There were no hood lums present and the meeting from a standpoint of morality, was a tre mendous success. The opera house was filled and 500 people were turned awayV Professor J. W. McGarvey, an eminent minister of the Christian church, was the first speaker, and he showed Colonel Breckinridge np in no favorable light. "He held that it would be a disgrace to the district, to the state and to the country to re turn such a man to congress, and closed his 6peech by a strong appeal to the young men to vote against him. The other speaker was Judge M. J. Durham, Who denied Colonel Breckin ridge was "the only man in the d istrict who could represent the district in congress. The speeches were both well received and made a good im pression. Resolutions were adopted denounc ing Breckinridge's morals and calling on the good people of the district to raise up in their might and- vote against the silver-tongued persuader. But when Harry C.Clay got up and offered a resolution not only denounc ing Breckinridge's morals, but asking that Senator J. C. S. Blackburn be asked to obtain leave of absence from the senate, and that he come home .and from the rostrum speak against Breckinridge, the audience went wild. xne cneering was oeaienin;'. ana 1 1 was plain to any observer that the Breckinridge boom, started by the silver-tongued orator himself a little more than a week ago, was badly strained if not broken. The following are the women's reso lutions adopted: Whereas. W. G P. Breckinridge his au thorized himself as a candidate for re-election to congress from Ashland distrut. notwith standing his confession. under oath, of Ha rant end habitual licentiousness and hypocrisy: therefore. Re-solved. First, that we. itnfn of r.e-rin -ton and P'ayette eouDty.Kcn' okT. do solemn ly protest oirainst kt-t renuuiination as tiie representative of this district Second We believe that such an indorse ment of W. C f Breckinridge at the polls would be a disjra'.-e to Kcntutky. a sh una up n manhood, an insult to mom ichond. a sinful examnle to youth and u menace to both society and the norm Third We e;irnevly Implore our father', hu-bani3 and brother's to ips out the stain that W. C P. Breckinridsre h n brought on the fair fame of the Ashland district The resolutions also passed by the' men are similar, and they add oae recommendation, the calling of such meetings by ladies in every county in the district. REPUBLICAN CAUCUS. No Definite Action Agree! on ia Ke;arJ to the Tariff Hsrht. Wasrisotos, May 15. The Repub lican members of tue senile were in caucus at Senator Sherm mi's house from 8 o'clock until 11:50 last nifht. The caucus partjok more of the nature of an informal conference than of a business meeting, and while it was called with the .purpose of ar riving at a conclusion as to the method' to be pursued by the Republican party in the senate, it close .1 without elicit ing anything in the. way of a party declaration. There was no vot on any proposition whatever, ani the proceedings consisted of a large num ber of speeches. On general lines the greatest diverg ence of opinion was on the abilitv of the Republicans to beat the bill at all, and while there was no formal division which would permit of a counting, the caucus app eared to be about evenly divided in sentiment on this question. A statement that Eastern senators were favorable to a continuation of the opposition on the lines which are now being observed, and that West ern senators were oppo.--.ed to any effort to secure delay, for delay's sake, would be in a general way cor rect, but there were exceptions on both sides. There was much talk as to the gen eral demerits and inconsistencies of the bill and some of the silver sen ators did not fail to call attention to the lack of sympathy which had been displayed by the Republican senators when the silver bill was before the senate last fall, and to intimate that they had no desire at this time to heap coals of fire on the heads of that ele ment in the party at this time by doing kindness in return for what they termed inconsiderateness. Some of the senators expressed the opinion at the close of the conference that another meeting of the minority party in the senate will be held at an early day. Baseball Results.

Kansas Cmr, Mo., May- 15. Owing to the inability of the state -central committee to complete the necessary preliminary arrangements, the pro gram for to-day's convention was changed materially. The district caucuses which had been set for 9:30 a. m. were held at 11- instead, and the convention proper was called to order afioon instead of at 11 o'clock. The OTQer for this change was prac tically the only thing the state cen tral committee managed to do, al though it met at 10:30 a. m, yesterday and stayed in session over- an hour. The meeting was called to order by Chairman Maffit and the roll call by Secretary Sam Cook developed the presence of all the members, except ex-Mayor Noonan of St. Louis, Har vey Salmon and General B. G. Boone aj Clinton. Mayor JSoonan s absence caused a heap of trouble. His Democracy is i unquestionable and, doubtless, to be absolutely sure his district was repre- tented, finding himself unable to be I here, he had carefully given two j proxies. One of these was presented by Colonel William H. Phelps, the j other by Captain Dan Able. Neither one of these gentlemen felt that he could conscientiously give way ta the other, and so there was of necessity a I stop in all the operations of the j committee until Mayor- Noonan j could be heard from. Th e committee I accordingly took a recess till 5:30 and meantime a telegraphic query was sent to Mr. Noonan. For some reason no reply came and the committee af- ter waiting and waiting for nearly four hours finally adjourned till 9 o'clock this morning, after selecting these guardians of the official peace of the convention: Doorkeeper Frank Phillips. Assistants J. J. Williams, A. "J. Shockey, Dee Reese, James Collins, Thomas Walker, W. K. Bradbury, Frank Maguire, Marshall Baldwin, J li. McGowan, Gus Jaiser and J. E. Fitzpatrick. Serjeant-at-Arms Thomas McGee. Assistants Serjeant-at-Arms Jas. A. Reed. Richard Newman, T. E. J. Duan, E. C. B. Jenkins, M. Ross, John J. Rieger, Bayley Steele, Thomas Bidge and F. P. Shannon. Unless Congressman Richard Bland experiences a change of heart, it is probable that all efforts looking toward harmony in to-day's Demo cratic state convention will come to naught. Mr. Bland arrived in the city yesterday morning. He came with jaws set firmly together, and a positive disinclination to talk for publication. will not be interviewed,' was his invariable response to questions put by newspaper men. But Mr. Bland had talked before he came here, and he has talked to in timates since he arrived. It is known that Mr. Bland expects to be a mem ber of the committee on resolutions. He hopes to be its chairman, and he proposes that the. committee shall report resolutions favoring the res toration of the silver coinag"e laws in force prior to the so-called demonetiza tion act of 18 73 coinage on a ratio of 16 to 1. If such a report gets before the con vention, and Bland's followers insist that it will, there will be a fight. Judge John W. Henry of this city and Colonel Griff Prather of St. Louis held a long consultation with Mr. Bland yesterday, and earnestly be sought him to abandon his purpose to introduce, or favor in committee, a resolution which could only result in strife. Both of these gentlemen are silver men, but they can not see what good purpose can be served "by attack ing the platform upon which Presi dent Cleveland and Mr. Bland himself were elected. "Silver Dick" was ob stinate, however, but positively re fused to recede from his position. Klot in Kelly's Army. Ottcmwa, Iowa,May 15. There was a small riot at Kelly's camp last even--ing. The mayor of Ottumwa hired and paid for grounds for the army to camp on. When the men arrived the owner demanded an admission of ten cents to enter. After a number had paid Kelly arrived and demanded that it be stopped. Trouble followed and a free fight was in progress when the mayor arrived and decided in Kelly's favor. Larxt Gas Well on Kartti. Toledo, Ohio, May 15. The largest gas well in the Ohio or in the Indiana fields was drilled on the Wallace farm three miles west of Fostoria yester day. It came in at 4 o'clock yester day afternoon and when the tools were thrown out the workmen had to run for their lives. The drill stem and rope were thrown fully 500 feet. The well is estimated at 50,000,000 feet of gas per day, the largest well on earth. i Dyine; From Eemorse. Cincinnati, Ohio, May 15.

The hot chase after the Taylor boys continues with impetus and at present there seems to be no inclination for abating the pursuit. Everything now looks en couraging for their capture. Couriers have been dispatched and received here during the past twenty-fours, giving details of the pursuers, while telephones and telegraph wires have been active. All Linn, Sullivan, Macon and Adair counties are out with posses, hot on the trail of the foul murderers, dissatisfiea with any thing but capture, and capture, as the Taylors know, has a potent meaning. The already heinous crime has de veloped even into more sensational horrors, which seems almost im possible, in the fact that the murder ed Mrs. Meeks was in a delicate way and Mould have given birth to a child in a few months. This has caused even more lion-like vengeance among the people. Yesterday afternoon the two fleeing murderers were seen in Macon county seven miles west of La Plata. They were seen by a party who knew thn, and the report that they are Beven miles out between there and Elmer is confirmed from another source. They are in the Chariton river hills and they have formerly bought, drove and fed cattle in that yicinity and know the ground, and it will be hard to capture them. The two Taylors, it is reliably stated, took all the way from $30,000 to SCO, 000 from the Browning bank, in which one of them was cashier, after the murder was committed.

STATE JOURNAIi. TUES DAT EVENING. MAY 15. 1894. C3 9 X FULL DFJROUBLL Lot of tbe Silver Territories Not Pleasant, Says Mr. Rawlins the Delegate from Utah. WALL STIIEET DOES IT. No More Silver States to be Admitted Now. Washington. May 15. f Special. "The trouble with us territorians, said Delegate Rawlins of Utah In the course of a talk on the prospects for new states, "is that all the adverse force3and all our trou bles seem to have come to a head at once. There arc several little things which most people have net thought of as affecting our case. As to the next presidency, we should cut very little figure in the electoral col lege, as all the four would have but 13 votes. But suppose the choice of the next president should be thrown into the house. Then Utah cr Oklahoma would count just as much as New York. It is the majority of 6tates, not of members, that decides, and c great many politicians are calculat ing on tho next election being thrown into the house. I sometimes think that alone would bo enough to keep all tho four ter ritories out, but there is another and still more powerful cause. Wall street has serv ed notice that no more silver senators are to be admitted, and what Wall street wants has to be done. I have not been saying so, but It looks very muchas if no new states could bo mado until this silver question is so thoroughly settled that ev erybody will rocognizo the settlement and no more attempts bo mado to change it." rtali' Fertility. "Is 16 possible for tho population out there to go on Increasing at present rates when so much of the area is mountain and desert?" "It is really wonderful how large a pop ulation tho valleys will support, aud in g-reat comfort. I somctim sa think an acre of land in Utah well watered and cultivat ed would produce food for a family. And I am af mid that millions of familiesin the United Stat.ss will have to come to some thing like that. In other words, I think that civilization Is about to receive, if it has not already received, a great check on its present course; that there will bo less division of labor and each family supply itself with almost everything. I cannot sco that there is soon to bo a great revival of business on tho old lines or that there will bo a rich market for manufactured goods. 'It seems to me that the price of farm produce for some years is going to be so low that farmers cannot buy manufac tures. If it be so, each family will havo to be entirely self sustaining, and with gold as the basis of all money it seems to me there must be this steady shrinkage and check to civilization. In such a cose wo Utah peoplo will be right at home. Wo were brought up to live that way and can do it again. It ia depressing, however, to think of the way some of our interests have gone down. Take our wool, for instance, which is only 9 cents a pound, if one can sell it at all, and think of tho millions Utah might mako with wool at a fair price. Low I 'rice of Wool. "You have often spoken of that region west of Great Suit, lake as the most com plete desert in America, and so it was con sidered 20,000 square miles or more of reg ular barrenness. Well, of late years mil lions have been mado on that same desert. All that white sage which looked a mere worthless wesxl that no stock would touch has proved the fittest kind of winter feed, both for sheep and cattle. When the snow comes, so tho stock can get water, all that region is good pasturage, and when sum mer comes tho stock is taken up into the mountains. One herder can take care of 1,000 sheep or more, aud 6o the expense is trifling. The great trouble is that the re turns are trifling, too, just now, but there is scarcely any limit yet to bo set to the development of stock arising in Utah, and there is good land enough with running water to employ o-rfarming population of 600,000 or so. Add to this all tho mining, manufacturing and other business, and you will see the enormous margin for develop ment that Utah has, but there is no use in denying that the fates are against us at present. Silver is away down, and wool is down and going lower, the politicians are against the new state for one reason and Wall street for another, and if we got over all these, why, the chances are that Cleve land would veto us. But Utah can live. Her people know how to be self sustain ing." The Hope of Europe. After hearing this somewhat depressing statement of tho case it was a pleasure to listen to Hon. J. B. McCrcary, who passes much of his time during tho dull days of debate on appropriation bills in his com mittee room foreign affairs. On the gen eral subject of money and the near future bo said: "Nothing would suit the people of Europe better than for us to adopt free coinage. I know it and have often heard them say so. It would put us on a silver basis at onco and give them our $600,000, 000 of gold. In the great conference, of which, of course, you have read, one of the Hothschilds s.iid, "America wants to un load her silver.' I said to him that our corn crop is worth at least 5750,000,000, our wheat crop has been as great in value as f 000,000,000, our cotton crop is $100, 000,000, of iron und coal we mine well over $300,000,000 worth yearly, while of silver our product is but $05,000,000. It is a mere bagatollj. No other country in the world can afford .to wait for an interna tional agreement better than we can. I am equally opposed to an exclusive gold or silver basis. I believe in both, and I know we shall get it if we hold on firmly." Misor Hatten. While the less interesting details of the appropriations bills were being droned over in the house the critics were whet ting their tongues for a general assault on Judge Holman'g Indian bill. He always catches it pretty heavily, but this year the elements of wrath are stirred up against him more lively than usual. So many things are asked for by the friends of the Indians, and the judge has been so re morseless in cutting down even the mod erate estimates that there is a general com bination of tho wrathful element to attack his bill. There has boen a general and surprising change all around the board in the senate, and the progress of the tariff bill is com pared to tha changes of partners at pro gressive euchre. First the sugar senators were placated, and then they were dis gruntled, and then they were- placated again, all this according to current report. Then the sugar planters of Louisiana met and laid down their Imperative demand for more, and so the sugar senators had to be counted out again. It is even so with Smith of New Jersey and Murphy of New York, and so, like Mrs. Bedott, "we poor shortsighted worms can't calc'late, UNDER CORRIGAN'S NOSE. Sensational Scene Made by Boarkt Cock na LwtXIghb New York, May 15. Bourke Cockran created a sensation last night at the opening of the Catholic educational hos pital at Grand Central Palace here. After Archbishop Corrigan had delivered an address Cockran began his speech. He was evidently excited. "To declare," said he, "that the Catholic church is hostile to v the republic, is to declare that the mother is hustile to her offspring. Those who tell us that the Catholic church and its educational sys tem is hostile to this government must speak a falsehood. We cannot have it otherwise. What the church is doing 'today in the parochial achoo.s is just the Bame as Ehe did in ages gone by. I believe the time has come when Catholics should assert them selves and say that they, above all others, are the men whose training and faith compel them to live citizens of. this re public." Then came the sensation. Mr. Cock ran was speaking of the loyalty of the Catholics to the republic. Turning toward- the archbishop, and advancing with forefinger outstretched, he declared with impassioned eloquence that he would accept the teaching of the church from his grace with the utmost reve rence, "but if the day should ever come" and here Mr. Cockran's voice rose until, echoed through the big hall, the rafters rang, "but if the day should ever come he was now so close to the archbishop that his outstretched fore finger almost touched his nose, "when from a pulpit you utter one word hostile to the integrity of this government, 1 tell you that if such language falls from your lips, it will be heretical. You will be false to the republic and false to the church that placed the consecrated oil "upon your hands for the blessing of your children. A subdued murmur of astonishment ran through the hall, quickly followed by a great burst of applause. WHO ARE THE PROTECTED Senator Allen Introdnctfl a Resolution of Inquiry Today. "Washington, May 15. At the open ing of the session of the senate Mr. Allen (Pop., Neb.) introduced and asked for the immediate consideration of a resolution calling upon the secretary of the treasury for information as to the total number of persons engaged in pro tected industries, the number of such persons whose wages are claimed to be affected by protection. The number whose wages are not af fected; also the proportion of position of the United States dependent upon the foreign market for the sale of their pro ducts; also- the number of persons en gaged in protected industries who are native citizens, the number naturalized and the number who are aliens, also the proportion of native or naturalized citi zens who are being displaced by aliens. Mr. Chandler asked that the resolution go over until tomorrow, meantime he suggested that Mr. Allen investigate to ascertain whether it was possible for the secretary of the treasury to comply with such request. He did not think the treasury department was in possession of such data as was desired by the resolu tion. Mr. Allen called attention to the fact that a similar resolution had been passed in 1886. The resolution went over. The vice president announced the fol lowing committee appointments: Mr. Patton, on claims, Indian affairs, epidemic diseases, agriculture and for estry; Mr. Proctor, on fisheries; Mr. Davis, on census, and Mr. McMillan, on naval affairs. The senate then took up the consider ation of the bills on the calendar. A bill to place Dunbar liansotu on the retired list of the army as a captain, was passed, also a bill defining and perma nently fixing the northern boundary line of the Warm Springs Indian reservation in the state of Oregon. A bill providing for a naval training station ou the Pa cific coast met with the opposition of Messrs.

H0rel Men's Mutual Benefit associa tion went eastward through Topeka at 1:15 today on their way home from their annual convention at Denver. There wre three trains of them and the party was iu charge of our Jerry Black, who went on with it to Chicago. The New York train came first and tho Chicago train second. Both of these were Pullman's finely equipped and very handsome, but the Boston train was the finest looking and consisted entirely of Wagner cars. The last party was the jolliest, too. When the passenger depot was reach ed the men jumped to the plat form and gave three cheers for the New England delegation of the H. M. M. B. A. Tom Henry of Boston, was the jester of the party aud made things lively. While he played "The Irish Washwoman" on his cornet John Arnold, a dignified looking Boston hotel owner, danced it in a way that was loudly applauded, after which Hen ry played "The Bowery," and the thirty or forty hotel men joined in singing the chorus. "What time is it?" they asked, and all crowded around Pat Sherman while he gave them the time to a second they insisted ou it after which they yelled in chorus, "We thank you;" and Pat looked wilted. "We have had a great time," said they, "and we owe it largely to Topeka's Mr. Black. He has kept us going and has shown us everything worth seeing in Colorado." The party left Pueblo last evening and will stop over a day in Chicago ou the way east SPIKES AND SPARKS. Railroads and Railroad Men Alone the Kausas JLiaes.

MISSOURI DEMOCRATS. They Are Trying Hard to Avoid Serious DiflTernc?H. Kansas City, May 15. The time set for opening the Democratic state coaven tion was 12 o'clock, but the hot fight in the state central committee, which remained in session all the forenoon, set things back a bit. It was proposed to settle in that committee all the differences which it was thought would crop out in the convention. How thoy succeeded, sub sequent developments show. When the convention was finally open ed Temporary Chairman J. McD. Trim bie tried to smooth matters over. He said state conventions did not decide national issues; the con vention had not assembled to nominate a presidential candidate nor to create a presidential possibility, which In a measure was a slap at Con gressman Bland. When he had concluded the Democrats yelled themselves hoarse for Bland, but Chairman Trimble rapped them to order. The convention then appointed the various committees and took a recess un til 3 o'clock. Peculiar to Itself.

Gov't Report, ID, ABSClILFfElTtf PXFRE A TALK WITH MISS YAW. Dr. Ouibor and a Reporter See the Won derful Vocal Cords. Miss Ellen Beach Taw, who has be come famous through her wonderful voice, is at the National. She is slight of figure with light blue eyes and light wavy hair. Her face is delicate and pleasing and she is withal very retiring and modest and has a most charming way. She greeted a Journal reporter cor dially. "Oh, please don't ask me to talk about myself," she said. "I can talk about anything else much easier." t "Will you talk about your voice then?" asked the reporter. "Yes, I consider myself and voice en tirely distinct. It seems easy to me to reach high notes and a3 if every one ought to reach them. One old lady whom I met said, Why, I have seen people with necks just like hers;' she seemed to think 1 ought to have an inch of neck for every note." "Is it not difficult to distinguish the pitch of the human voice after it passes E above high C?" inquired the reporter. "Yes,".answered Miss Yaw, "it is very hard to distinguish such notes. It re quires a practical ear of the very best musicians, I sang before Christine Nilson, and sang C above high C, and she would not believe that I had reached that pitch until she touched the piano. I have cultivated only the middle and lower tones.-. I never had to work on the very high tones. The very limit of my voice is the high E flat but I do not reach that in ..all my concerts. Many class my voice as mezzo soprano." The music lovers of Topeka were given the opportunity this afternoon of meeting Miss Ellen Beach Yaw in the parlors of the National, where an infor mal reception was given for her. Her charming manners and delicate type of beauty quite won the hearts of all, and after hearing her remarkable voice to night, she may count her conquest com plete, as far as Topekans are concerned. Miss Yaw wore this afternoon at her reception an empire gown of pink chif fon, embroidered ia green over pink surah. The sleeves were large puffs reaching to the elbow and were met by pale green suede gloves. An iridescent girdle confined the short waist and the slightly low V shaped neck was outlined with iridescent pas sementerie. The skirt was demi-train with a ruffle of pink lace around the bottom. Her coiffure was the same as seen in her pictures and is decidedly pic turesque. Palms, ferns and hydrangeas adorned the parlor and the dozen ladies who re ceived with her wore pretty afternoon gowns. Dr. Guibor examined Miss Yaw's throat this afternoon and the Journal reporter was permitted to peep. The doctor pro nounced the construction of the vocal organs perfect Her vocal cords are un usually delicate and thin. Dr. Guibor pronounced the lady's throat the most perfectly formed for vocalization that he had ever seen. LILLIAN RUSSELL FREE.

Powell of this city is the state chemist, and some water was sent to him by Dr. E. Swarts. a member of the state board of health, to be analyzed. The water was taken from the wells, of the Metropolitan W ater company, Kan sas City, Kan. It seems that 'the jug that.it was sent in was not clean, and so the analysis showed that the water was not fit for use. Dr. Powell told Dr. Swarts. that it was cot a fair trial, as the jug was contaminated. Dr. L. M. Powell's report said: "No free ammonia present, but fifteen parts per million of albuminoid ammonia in sample." Until the discovery was made that the jug wasn't a clean one, there was consid erable talk iu Kansas City over the con dition of their drinking water. HsTird Men Probably Drowned. Boston, May 15.

The people who do not like the Coxey movement have not yet informed the world what they are going to do about it. What a lot of time and speech some newspapers have, waited if, as Henry George says, David B. Hill isn't worth talking about. If the house could get a bill through as quickly as it got the crank out yes terday, the country would have nothing to complain of. The burning of the Tabernacle doesn't worry Rev. Mr. Talmage any as long as it brings bis name prominently before the public again. The country will today cease for a moment, to give its attention to congress and the Coxeyites while the Brooklyn handicap is run. The enthusiasm with which Iowa river towns are welcoming Kelly is ex ceeded only by the gladness with which his parting is speeded. It has become too much of a task to keep track of the tariff debate by days, and so it is said that the seventh week of the tariff debate has begun. There didn't seem to be any disposi tion on the part of the house to delay the ousting of the gallery crank by fili bustering or no quorum tactics. Mr, Cleveland is a little early in going fishing this year compared with his usual data of starting out, but per haps he has arranged to stay over Deco ration Daj-. A local paper says a large majority of the Banders army are for Bland for pres ident Saturday the same authority stated that the army was made up mostly of Republicans. How is this? Some people have been so busy talk ing about the lawlessness of Sanders' army, that they haven't had time to think about the two lynchings that have oc curred in the state within the last ten lays. Bo little has been heard of Miss Pol lard since the trial, that the public was beginning to have quite a favorable opinion of her, but since she has emerged, from her obscurity she is apt to lose all that she gained. The gold reserve in the United States treasury has again fallen considerably below the $100,000,000 mark. Secretary Carlisle will probably make another issue of bonds as soon as he returns from a ten days fishing trip which he has gone on in company with the president, and Secretary Gresham. Bcsan B. Anthony declared that Bhe had seen the girl who could whistle and when she found one who could throw a stone, it would be demonstrated that woman could do anything. All the needs to do now is to engage the pitchers of the Ottawa baseball nines to tour with her in order to destroy the last argument against woman's rights. The farce of an international bimetal lic conference seems in a fair way of be ing again perpetrated upon the public The move is doubtless for the purpose of affording to congressmen a loophole of escape when they are called in the com ing campaign to comfort their constitu ents and explain their votes on silver. They hope to run the gauntlet on the plea that they are just waiting for an in ternational agreement which is about to bo consummated. If the people want free coinage of silver at the old ratio the members of each party should demand of their candidates this fall a pledge to do all in their power to secure that re sult, then it would not matter who is elected. The money question is the only Important question before the people. Thfr need be no fear that the tariff will be seriously disturbed. ACTION CALLED FOR. The ariay of the" commonweal has come and gone. The uncertainty in the minds of many regarding the make up of. the movement has been removed. Wherever any one of tho numerous branches of the army has remained a sufficient length of time for the people to form an estimate of the men accom panying it, the verdict has been that they are workingmen, of average intelli- I gence and thoroughly in earnest. The fact is gradually taking shape in the f public mind that these men know in a general way at least, what they want and that they are determined to go to Wash ington at any cost, and ask for it They may differ as to details. "General" Cox ey favoring the building of good roads and "General" Sanders favoring the building of a system of irrigation; but on one point they are all united and that is they want public work of some k-ind set on foot That te country is filled with idle men who would work if they could no one presumes to deny. That congress has done and is doing absolutely noth ing to. relieve the conditions is equally certain. These men think they have a remedy. What will congress do about it?- There is nowhere else for the peo ple to go with their burdens and con gress will be forced to meet this ques tion sooner or later. Why don't it do it now before matters go any further? There has already been bloodshed in the northwest; there are likely to be simi lar or worse occurrences at any time. The petition of Mr. Coxey and his fol ers should be taken up by the national law-makers at once, and if their scheme is impracticable, illegal or inadvisable they should be so informed and that would probably end the movement in Its present form. It is unfortunate in this instance that a matter of this Mnd cannot be submit ted to a direct vote of the people. It could be settled in short order. The Democratic party cannot hope to dodge the issue by ignoring it Every thing that party has done since it as sumed control of the government has but emphasized its total incapacity for the management of public affairs. It might redeem itself to some extent by 'meeting the industrial problem in a fair, open and intelligent manner. Such a state of affairs as the present could not have occurred under a Republican administration. The Repub lican party always met emergencies half way. Casting the blame for present con ditions upon the McKinley tariff law will not serve any more, for the reason that congress has convinced the people that it does not intend to alter that law to any appreciable extent, if at all. No, the Democratic party cannot es cape the grave responsibility confronting it It has the senate, the house and the president It can do as it will. It must meet this industrial problem and settle it somehow or have the verdict of incapaci ty already rendered, endorsed even by its friends and have added to its catalogue of misdeeds that of criminal negligence. The silver plank adopted at the Re publican convention in the seventh dis trict is a better one than the one on which Charlie Curtis is to stand in the fourth district It Is a great pity that the fourth district delegates didn't have the courage of their convictions and put up a silver plank with a ring to it. The one adopted at Newton by the seventh district Republicans is as follows and is good enough to put in the state platform: We favor bimetallism and are op posed to monometallism, whether of gold or of silver. We believe that by wise legislation, the annual output of the silver mines of our country can be added to the money of the country, with out disturbing the equal values of our gold and silver coin. We are in favor of gold, silver and paper money coined and issued by our national government, interchangeable at par and in volume sufficient to meet the demands of the agricultural and commercial interests of our country." We don't hear so much about European pauper labor, nor about the "miserable pittance of wages" on which the Eu ropean laborer has to live as we used to. It seems somewhat out of place to drag in the European standard of comparison any more. We don't even have the pit tance to give to thousands of laboring men. It speaks loudly for. the good sense of American workingmen that they have not as yet, at least, gone to rioting when they felt the pangs of hun ger, as their brethren in Austria, Bel gium and France have done. Even the Coxey movement is better than blood shed, dear reader, isn't it? The Republicans of Cowley county in adopting a platform of the six words, "Resolved that we demand a change," set a precedent that it would be well for other conventions to follow. No matter how long the resolutions or how involved the sentences the essence of every polit ical declaration is embodied in the above expression and its adoption as a perma manent form would save lots of wear and tear and an abundance of nervous energy. It is reported from Provo, Utah, that tha sheriff and a large posse arrested twenty-seven Industrials at that place and put them in jail without firing a shot This is certainly a remarkable per formance considering the bloodthirsty character of tha average commonwealer. The church without Christ that is to be formed in Chicago is hardly a new departure as there are thousands less frank organizations in the same fix. The crank who raised such a dis turbance in the house yesterday is en vied by all tha members because of his success in catching the speaker's eye. IT SHOWS FOR ITSELF III I.I III f THE BREEDING OF AMERICAN GIRLS WHEN ABROAD. A New Yorker's Advice to Bis Dang-hter. Bow an Amerioa Young- XmA-j Tried to Captivate the Prince of Naples A, Few Words of Seasonable CosbmL Special Correspondence. Rome, April 30. "My dear Lizzie, n writes a New Yorker to his daughter, "do not forget you are a lady by birth and breeding. Do not forget it; but, on the other hand, do not speak of it; it must show for itself- Too often the American, girl when, away from home forgets this fact, and by some little act of weakness or vani ty attracts to herself the just censure of those who witness her frailty. "I like tho American girl in her own home, said a cultured Frenchwoman. "There she has the proper setting for her independent ways, her brilliant graces of mind and person, but when 6he comes abroad" A shrug of the French shoulders conveyed a world of disapproval. The remark had been call ed forth by the passing of a beautiful American girl through one of the crowd ed thoroughfares in a white dress. Girls Host Not Saanter. It is the almost invariable custom of women in Europe when they must ap pear on tho street alone to be dressed very plainly in dark clothes and to walk rapidly, looking neither to the right nor the left, if they desire to avoid unpleas ant attention. To appear in a fine dress, to saunter along and look in the shop windows, is always considered an invi tation to some of the street loungers to join them. Even should she have an es cort, if her dress be very elegant, she must maintain a discreet and dignified demeanor, or remarks will be made that would be decidedly unpleasant for her THE PEINCE OP NAPLES. to hear. That a woman can travel the length and breadth of Europe alone without insult is more or less true. It all depends entirely upon herself. The American girl does not make as many faux pas perhaps as is attributed to her by her English cousins. At the wedding of the Countess of Essex Miss Adele Grant as the guests were arriv ing at the church, I overheard one Eng lish girl say to another: "In evening dress in an open carriage I What bad form, but they are Americans, I sup pose!" As I happened to know, they were not Americans, and this fact I hastened to impart to the traducer of my countrywomen, and as a vision of loveliness preceded us into the church, "but the bride is," I added. A Painful Reproof, One or two instances, however, came to my notice that merited the rebukes they received. A pretty Chicago girl was stopping at one of the hotels here. In her journeys about the city she fre quently met a handsome officer, and be ing impressed by his fine appearance and gorgeous uniform she thought to make his acquaintance, but knew no one that could introduce her. She was equal to the occasion, however, and contrived to lose herself one day in his immediate vicinity. With great gallan try the Italian gentleman accompanied her to her hotel, where he was invited in and presented to her father and in vited to caiL He was obliged to refuse the invitation, however, for his staff had been ordered to Como and must leave that evening. Rome thereafter had no charms for the Chicago girl, and with her father she soon departed for Coma She employed her time walking, riding, boating, constantly endeavoring to learn the whereabouts of the officer. At last she was successful, and one day saw him, with a friend, approaching. With flushed cheeks and bright eyes she hastened to meet him, bowing effusive ly. The officer raised his hat, stepped to one side and -allowed her to pass without the faintest glance of recogni tion. It was a most painful reproof, but it was merited. Striking and Captivating". There is something about a martial uniform that goes straight to the heart of a girl the world over. It may be that brass buttons, tinsel shoulder straps and dangling sword appeal to her sense of artistic beauty more than m plain civil ian's uniform does. Whatever it is, her choice is always the same. Place before her two men, one in a plain dress suit and the other in a neat and natty uni form, and see how quickly her eye will sparkle with pleasure as it rests on the uniform, to the utter oblivion of the plainly dressed man. The Italian uni form is particularly pleasing to the eyes, being neater than the German or Aus trian, less gaudy than the French and less imposing than the English all as neat as wax, as if the owner had just stepped out of a bandbox. Add to this a jaunty air, black mustache, a pair of sparkling black eyes, and welL who can blame the girl if she does not see the other man? Many an American girl has dreamed dreams when she has been presented to the young Prince of Naples. And why not? He is a goodly youth to look upon, utd it is a well known fact that Queen Margaret and King Humbert are very friendly to Americans. European Cnrtonu, There are a great number of Ameri cana ladies married to Italian noble men among the oompany comprising the queen's court The young prince is uniformly kind and courteous to all wo men, although ha does not betray that fondness for their society that was such a strong characteristic of his father and( grandfather before him. He is a quiet, studious youth, possessing his mother's gentle nature. He is quite cosmopolitan in his ideas and goes about freely in the society at Rome and Naples. At a re cent ball he was presented to two at tractive American girls, with whom he conversed for some time. They had not caught his name when he was introduc ed and were surprised when he passed out to see every one deferentially make way for him. When they learned it was the heir to the kingdom of Italy with whom they had been conversing, they were mortified at their lack of deference. But they need not have been. Their careless indifference was probably a greater attraction than the most obse quious attention would be. Princes are human and like a little variety some times. European customs are so different from our own that for a man to address a remark to a woman, a stranger to him, does not always indicate a desire to be rude or unpleasant "You look like two duchesses," said a gentleman, politely raising his hat as he passed two Ameri can women on the Corso. There was no offense in his manner or actions and none intended. It occurred to him as he approached them that they were re gal looking, and he told them so and passed on. An American in ay admire a pretty face as much as the Frenchmen or the Italians, but he keeps his thoughts to himself, whereas the latter speaks right out "When a man in America thinks a girl he meets on the street is pretty, does he tell her so, as we do here?" ask ed a Milanese lawyer of a Pittsburg girL "No, indeed; they would think he was crazy, said the girl, with a horrified face. Lena L. Pepper. THE NEW YORK NEWSBOYS. They Most Hereafter Refrain From Selling on Street Cars. Special Correspondence.! New York, May 10. The poor little newsboys of New York feel that they are greatly abused these days. The fol lowing notice has been issued by the Metropolitan Traction company and posted in cars of all the lines controlled by it: In consequence of the number of serious ac cidents to newsboys, they will not hereafter be allowed on the cars of this line. Passengers are respectfully requested to co-operate with, the company by buying papers before boarding cars. Since being issued the order has been generally enforced on car lines through out the city. Newsboys in Philadelphia, Trenton, Newark, Jersey City and in several other cities were prohibited some time ago from boarding street cars, and it is claimed by the managers of these lines that their passengers have thus been spared considerable annoyance from the youthful, shrill voiced hawkers, and that dangers of accident to the lat ter have likewise been avoided. The little fellows themselves take un kindly to the order in New York. They have held several indignation meetings in the public squares and denounced the action of the street railway companies as unwarranted and, as one enthused orator expressed it, "unconstitutional." Many of the older newsboys complain that this prohibition is an outrage and a deliberate attempt to rob them of their bread and butter. "Why should we be boycotted," said one excited young news vender when questioned, "when we hain't done nuthin but work hard to serve the public? It's a blamed shame to give us the go by this way. I have been jumpin on and off cars four years, and I never had a. 6lip. Why, it's part of the art o' bein a newsboy to be sure o" his footin. S'pose onct in awhile one o' us do make a miss. Hain't it the same way in other t'ings? Just 'cause a ingineer or a brakeman loses his life they don't stop railroadin, not much. It's 'cause we'se little and hain't got backers dat we has to suffer. An old gentleman, a prominent law yer, who goes up town every afternoon at a certain hour on the Broadway cable cars, was very enthusiastic respecting the stand taken by the street car mag nate Said he to the writer: "I have seen many sorry sights resulting from this loose system of allowing the news boys to invade our street cars. By usage they had became rather privileged char acters. Conductors seemed to have a sort of paternal regard for them which was all well enough in it3 way, and the average passenger had come to believe it his duty not to look sour or concerned when his pet corn "was brought to his mind by some clumsy, assertive little brigand with a bundlo of papers under his arm. But this could all be passed by perhaps were it not that these enter prising urchins take large risks in ex posing themselves to the cruel dangers of our later modes of transit I myself have seen two newsboys killed outright and several so injured and maimed that their usefulness in life was destroyed. Every sensible man should buy his read ing matter before entering a street car. It seems yet too early to predict what, some of the New York evening dailies will have to say concerning this inno vation. It is within the bounds of a ra tional judgment of human nature to suspect that if they find their sale ii minished because the newsboys are not allowed on street cars they will criti cise the order in no moderate terms that is, two or three of them will. Thus far, however, the metropolitan press has treated the decision of the street rail road companies with a lukewarm and casual interest After all, the newspa pers do not seriously depend on street car passengers for their maintenance, and, as for the newsboys, they can do quite as well off the street cars in tha lpg run.

STATE JOURNAL, TUESDAY VESTING, MAY 15, 1834. 5 TRAMPS IX THE PAHK. Tbere vfote a Dczan of Drunk and Singing. Them THE OFFICERS CAPTURE SIX It 1 Said a Teakettle Wast Cet Kali or Water Befara It W1U Ufc Hut Km, Proud Han. la Xo Teakettle. A dozen victim of the present financial depression who have tramped from on end of the country to the other in search of "work" that presenteth not itself, and also In search of pie, enjoyed a glorious drunk In the city park last night. Alco hol, or in the phraseology of the craft, "white-horse," was the form of liquid hilarity used. As the bottle became lighter its contents got in its work. The trainps sang tunes that possessed neither the merits of harmony nor sentiment; and used language and expletives that were stronger than the liquid refresh ments. They made considerable noise, bc much so in fact that the neighbors around them couldn't sleep and sent for the police. Sergeant D.movan accom panied by Otiicers Campbell and Davis went to the place and by skillful ma neuvering in the grass and in the shade of friendly trees, managed to get close to the disturbers of the peace. A grand rush was made in which six of the gang were captured. The tramy with the "white horse" escaped, as the officers were on foot. In the police court today the men gave their names as Charles White, John Groghan, James Williams, Frank Martin. James O'Brien and Charles Orendoff. Tney all pleaded guilty ex cept O'Brien who denied being drunk. After hearing the evidence Judge Ens minger announced, "1 fine you. fifteen dollars, and if you ever come back here again I will fine you a hundred dollars." "I wouldn't care if I wuz guilty," O'Brien growled, "but I'm gittin' tired of" "Take him out, or I'll fine him fifteen more," the judge said. All the members of the gang were old offenders and were committed to the rock pile. Olher Cases. Hack Driver Wm. Duffy has been ar rested on a warrant sworn to by a neigh bor for alleged violation of the ordinance which prevents chickens from running at large. Officer Parker arrested a young rail road man last night who can speak seven different languages. He was drunk and is said to have insulted a number of women, all in the English language, however. He forfeited a $5 deposit. John Casey, one of Sergeant Steele's "suspects," was brought in last night be cause he Was in the Union Pacitic yards trying to sell a valuable silk lap-robe for 50 cents. He is held pending an investi gation. Fate Russell was fined $15 for disturb ing the calm of his "woman" Ada Burch. Fate borrowed 15 cents from the Burch woman saying he wanted to "shoot a lit tle craps." lie didn't shoot craps and didn't go back so Ada Burch started aft er him. They met in the alley back of Whiting's paint shop and enjoyed a do mestic quarrel which was continued aft er they had returned home. Fate tried to hit the woman with a lamp, and he tore her jacket into shreds. She brought this into court as evidence. She also said that Fate dragged her half a block by the wrists. She said she was badly bruised but didn't show the court the bruises in evidence. Anyway, the court didn't want to see them. Ada Burch who was also charged with disturbing the peace was discharged. THIS IS HOW THEY FEEL. A Topcks Democratic Duslaes Man Writes a Pointed Letter. One of the most prominent business firms on Kansas avenue today received an invitation from three drummers for eastern wholesale houses, asking the firm to meet at the Midland hotel in Kan sas City and inspect their samples. The senior member of the firm, who is a Democrat, has written the following reply to the invitation: M. E. Ellis. A. C. Drown and Others: Gentlemen: You are undoubtedly all good fellows, and were it expedient for us to come to Kansas City we could and surely would have a good time, good dinner, good beer and a good big bill of goods with each of you. But alas, alas, "the great Babylon is fallen," trade and prosperity have crumbled away; the "horn of the hunter" calls only the batts aud owls from amidst the cobwebs of desolation, while the pale phantom, death, rides astride the skeleton of silver and tariff through the halls of congress and Grover goes a-flshing.

Kennady, 4th and STATEMENT FROM CRANE. Opposes Office Holders or Candidates ia State Convention. State Prlntershlp. To Arthur Cappers In your "Topeka Mail" of May 11th,' in reference to the caucus in the Third ward, you say "Senator W. E. Sterne was defeated for delegate. George W. Crane antagonized him because Sterne is for Hudson for state printer." The fact as stated is correct, but the cause given is not. I have not opposed any one for that reason, but for reasons entirely different The fact is, I am opposed to public of ficials as delegates in conventions, and members of central committees; and also opposed to candidates for public posi tions sitting in conventions to make plat forms and nominations. It is very bad taste for them to do so, and very bad policy for the people to allow it to be done. By "people I mean the persons who earn their living outside of politics, and who earn the money that pays the taxes to support these public officials. The history of that caucus is, on Thurs day evening the 3rd, Senator Sterne and twelve others, invited guests, got together in the mayor's office and fixed up j a ticket of fifteen delegates and fifteen alter nates. The ticket contained the name of Senator Sterue and several other pub lic officials, as delegates. It was not a Morrill caucus, and Mr. Sterne opposed a motion to instr act for Mr. Morrill; but it was published in the Capital aa a "large and enthusiastic meeting of the voters of the Third ward," and the instructions were published with it. The following day the members of the county central committee for the ward, published a call for a general caucus on Monday evening the 7th at the CopelancL About one hundred and forty attended. The ticket issued by that caucus did not contain the names of Mayor Harrison, Senator Sterne and several others that were on the tick et made by these select few. There are many good reasons why pub lic officials and candidates for office should not sit in conventions. After a man has obtained a public position, he is supposed to have what he desired, and should, in decency, be content to let others have a chance. When a man is a candidate for one position, he should keep bands off of candidates for other positions. The occupations of public officials are Buch that they can utilize six days each week to talk politics, put up slates, and fix up jobs; while those of us who have to work for a living have our minds occupied with other things, and at night find it necessary to sleep, while they are lying awake thinking up schemes to perpetuate themselves and helpers, in office. Now, the programme laid out for Sen ator Sterne was first to be elected a del egate to the county convention, aud by the convention to be selected as a dele gate to the state e -nvention, and by the delegates to the state convention se lected as Shawnee county's member of the state central committee, and by the state central committee to be se lected as its chairman to manage the state campaign. I would not be surprised if Major Hudson should try to be made chairman of the county convention, del egate to the state convention, chairman of the state convention, or be again made chairman of its committee on resolutions. All this may seem fair to some, but to me it is not. There is danger of ambitious persons prostituting their positions to purposes not intended by the persons v ho gave them their positions. My fear is caused by the knowledge that Senator Sterne, weeks ago, before a delegate was named, assured certain candidates for state offices, (not residents of Shawnee county) that "We are going to give you some votes, but you must remember that it is on Major Hudson's account, and when the time comes, we will expect you to help him in the state printer fight" Will the state campaign be used for the same purpose, if Senator Sterne is made its chairman? Have I a right to protest? Several weeks ago I sent word to Sena tor Sterne that I would oppose him in all his ambitions in this line. He will not go to the county convention, and may not go to the state convention. If he is mt made chairman of the state central committee, this city will not suffer, be cause the committee work will be done here anyhow. I have helped Senator Sterne to office more than ouce, and have done him val uable political service. When he was made senator it was with the distinct un derstanding that he should be neutral on the state printer question. He cast two votes (one a proxy), for Major Hudson in the legislative state printer caucus, but I made no objection; I did feel hurt though, at the kicking that was exhibit ed after my nomination. I will make no mention of the causes that brought about the change in the nominee ten days aft erward, except to say that it was by de ception. Now, Mr. Capper, I have tried to make my fights openly. I have never had the assistance of a large lobby of professional politicians to help me and abuse my opponent Some weeks ago, I published in the State Journal an open letter to Major Hudson, proposing that at the time of electing the delegates to the county con vention for nominating county officers, each of our names should be placed upon the tickets as candidates for state printer. This would let the people of the county express a choice on the ques tion, and could be considered as instruc tions in each representative district Thus, the state printer fight would dis appear from the contest for representa tive. I believe in leaving to the people, the whole people, every question of pub lic importance that can be conven iently submitted to them. The cost would be nothing. The time for holding the convention has not yet been set: there is still plenty of time. All of the tax pay era are interested, and it affects them more, even, than some are aware. I would much rather trust the vote of the people than the acts of a few politicians. I tried to bring about such a result four years ago, but my opponent would not consent to it Two years ago the state printer fight entered largely into the representative fight in the city district, probably to the detriment of the city. I won In that fight, but there were no in structions and I lost a vote in the caucus. It is of no use for Major Hudson's friends to say, "Crane has no right to be a candidate." It is a business position rather than a political one. It is directly in my line of business. (The other can didate cannot say that) It has been given out as a political reward at high prices long enough, and it is high time to place the work on a business basis, at no higher than fair living prices. I have business to be a candidate and use all honorable means to secure the office, and intend to do so. But I submit that the fight ought to be a free one, and stripped of as many "entangling alliances" aa pos sible. Above all things the state cam paign ought not to be made subservient to the state printer fight The safest way is to adopt the- necessary means to prevent it Gbo. W.

RAMBLER, EAGLE ALT AIR, CRESCENT. "Ml lITCHELL IARBUR MAY LAY MEN OFF. Bridge Building Ganjr to Be Dismissed and Other Laf OS's Re ported. The men at the Santa Fe shops and re pair yards are expecting that some of their number will soon be laid off. No official announcement has been made of an extended lay off, and as neither Gen eral Manager Frey, Superintendent of Machinery Player, nor Master Mechanic Smith are in the city, the report can neither be verified nor denied. In the bridge building department of this division six men have been suspend ed, and Superintendent of Bridges Peter Sayre has received orders from head quarters to cut down his force as rapidly as the work now on hand will allow to a number barefy sufficient to keep the bridges in shape for use. This means the early retirement of at least fifty men. An employe of the shops said today that he had it from good authority that about fifty men would soon be suspended from the locomotive shops and repair yards. There are now only five engines in the shops for repairs. ALL ALONG THE LISEi Kail road New Items Interesting to Railroaders and the Public. P. E. Cook and Fred Lyman went to St Joseph today to see what arrange ments could be made toward taking the Santa Fe shop excursion to Lake Con trary in June. If satisfactory arrange ments cannot be made there it is proba ble the excursion will go to Kansas City. Nearly all the engines on the Santa Fe cut off are of the Baldwin make. The old hogs are going to the southern Kan sas division. Contrary to the announcement, the Rock Island will not begin the work on a short cut from Jansen, Nebraska, to Abilene, Kansas, this summer. The sur vey has been made and the road has such a step under consideration, but nothing further will be done about it until times get better. The company, it is further said, thinks seriously of building a short line from about Dresden, Kansas, to Denver. It now gets into Denver over the Unian Pacific road from Limon, Col. The Santa Fe company is not much worried by the announcement that the Kansas coal miners in the southwestern part of the state contemplate going out on a strike. The Santa Fe's men re fused to go into conference with the prospective strikers. They have always been well treated. Assistant General Manager W. I. Allen of the Rock Island, and General Super intendent A. J. Hitt, went to Kansas City yesterday. Mr. Allen will remain in this vicinity until the Sanders industrial army is well out of the road's way. It still remembers its experience with the commonwealers at Council Bluffs. The depot on the Missouri Pacitic over which there was almost a riot last win ter, was moved from Chico to Kipp. Formerly a caboose was used as a depot at Kipp which the woodpeckers had pecked many holes in. Dr. Harvey of Council Grove, attended the convention of railway surgeons at Galveston last week, taking his family with him. GROWTH OF THE A. K. IT. It Is Increasing In Kansas Bit Kot In Topeka. Since the settlement of the Great Northern strike in a mannerjo satisfac tory to the laboring man and so. compli mentary to the American Kail way union the order has grown in an encouraging way.

So far as the state at large is concerned, however, the increase in the last few weeks has been very flattering, and now the organ ization numbers among its members nearly eleven hundred Kansas men. It has now seven lodges in the state with memberships as follows: Argentine, B0; Emporia, 285; Newton, 1KG; Arkansas City, 113; Nickerson, 88; Dodge City, 227; Florence, 50. The trouble with the Topeka lodge is that there are too many other railway organizations to keep up, and the men lost their interest in this particular one. The national union numbers nearly ninety thousand." COLORED SPORTING EVENT A Prize Fight Between Tennnsrelowii Pugilists Four Rounds. The colored sports of the settlemeiit known as Tennesseetown had a big event yesterday afternoon. It was nothing less than a prize fight between "Pete" Joihm of Topeka, a pupil of "Kid" Roborson and Will Hansen, a Wichita colored sport, who works in a club. The event was spontaneous, and v;m brought about by a heated argument as to which of the two principals wa the better man. The sum of ten dollars a sklo was quickly raised, the whole $20 to to the winner. A ring was formed from somebody's clothesline, and seconds were selected. Bob Warsham and Simon Jordan were Jones' seconds, and John Ewing secoi d ed Ransen. Warren Robinson was the time-keeper and Ed Ransen act ed in the capacity of referee. Among the 100 colored young men who saw the fight the bets were many but for small amounts. Four ounce gloves were used, and the tight was a tierce and bloody one. Blows fell thick and both men showed signs of fatigue. Finally at the commencement of the fourth round Jones was declared to be knocked out by the referee, arid the money went to the Wichita man. The tight occurred in the vacant lots on Buchanan street between Eleventh and Twelfth. The police were all out to the circus. HORSE KNOW S SUNDAY. Dr. Dick's Intelligent Animal That Dees Not Need a Linn. Some horses are gifted with a greater degree of intelligence than others, but Dr. Geo. Dick, of this city, has a horse which seems to possess the faculty of judgment The doctor drives the horse to his office every day, except on Sunday, and then he is driven to the Presbyterian church. He has learn the system so well that now his driver lays down the lines and the horse trots to the office, if on a week day, but on Sunday he goes to the church without a line being drawn. He has done this repeatedly. ST. JOHN FOR GOVERNOR. Party Prohibitionists Propose to Kan Htm For the Office.

THE- BICYCLE DRESS. Bow Comfort May Kasily lie Cnited with Appropriateness. So much has been said and written upon proper dress for women who ride the wheel that anyone who is not a practical cyclist might be pardoned a feeling of bewilderment. French, Eng lish and American papers have all had a great deal 4tx say upon this much discussed question, ome of them ad- A PARI3 BICYCLING COSTCME. ocatlng extremes that would be more appropriate for an opera bouff e queen than for a sensible woman who whished to take her exercise in a sensible man ner. The underlying principles of correct dress for the wheel are comfort and ap propriateness. The carrying out of these principles need in no sense Con flict with good taste or merge intocon spicuousness. There is perfect freedom in a skirt, provided the skirt is made as it should be. The woman who rides is obliged not only to dress with due regard to her appearance when mounted, but also should exercise the same care in re gard to an attractive and inconspicu ous appearance when sho dismounts at the door of her friend's house, the store, or to enter a hotel, or wherever her faithful wheel may take her, on business or pleasure bound. The fundamental principal of com fort for a wheelwoaian lies in the un derwear. Corsets should never be worn under any circumstances. Neither is it desirable to ride without any sup port for the body,, especially if the rider is inclined to stoutness. An equipoise -waist from which the bones have been removed is the best substi tute for the corset, as then the mus cles are allowed to have full play, and are not constricted in any way. Union underwear is now so universally worn that it would seem almost unnecessary to recommend it; but upon the wheel it becomes almost a necessit3r, doing away with much unpleasant thick ness around the hips. A pair of full Turkish trousers, made of black India silk, will be found an admirable substitute for the petticoat. If preferred, equestrian tights are also extremely comfortable. Leggings are stiff and uncomfortable adjuncts, and are not necessary. They interfere with the "ankle motion," which should be cultivated by every woman who wishes to ride gracefully. For summer wear, low shoes and ankles covered with smooth black stockings are the most comfortable. The form of the skirt is by far the most important part of the wheel woman's attire. It should Hare from the hips, so as not to "hoop" around the ankles or bind across the knees. The skirt should clear the ground about four inches, and be lined with silk or satin to prevent clinging. An Eton jacket or habit waist, as one pre fers," makes a natty and feminine adjunct to the skirt. This can be ex changed on warm days for the ever popular shirt waist of cambric or silk. Given a wheel properly adjured for her height and weight and a few gen eral directions in regard to dress, any woman with ordinary intelligence and taste may rest assured that in riding a cycle she is doing nothing which de tracts from her dignity or personal ap pearance, but on the contrary, she can, by exercising her good taste and never losing sight of the principle of appro priateness, soon find herself in the full enjoyment of a pastime not only unsurpassed for it3 life-giving quali ties, but which will prove itself to be a veritable fountain of beauty- Har per's Bazar. THINGS WORTH KNOWING. Fish netting makes pretty and serv iceable drapgries in a country house. Stalk crackers are improved by placing in a hot oven a few minutes before serving. A peck of fresh lime in a damp cellar absorbs moisture and prevents malari ous troubles. Stasd a wet umbrella on the handle to drain, otherwise the water collect ing at the center will rot the silk. Half a teaspoonful of sugar scat tered over a dying fire is better than kerosene, and has no element of dan ger. Ivobt knife handles that have grown yellow with age or careless usage may be whitened by rubbing with Band paper. A laboi rug of linen crash placed under the sewing machine will catch threads, clippings and cuttings, and save a deal of sweeping and dusting. Kn gloves may b cleaned, when slightly soiled, with a small piece of oiled silk wound tightly about the fin ger, and rubbed vigorously over the surface of tho glove.

Wrinkled and seamed, al most toothless and with but little hair, she is not a pleasant object to contem plate, but is still a wonder and is re garded. with superstitious awe by the people of her race among whom she lives. The old woman was nursing Colonel Bowie, who lay ill of a fever in one of the rooms of the Alamo, and was sup porting him upon her arm in the act of giving him a drink of water at the fatal moment when the Mexican soldiers rush ed in and butchered him in his bed. She shows npon her chin the scar of the wound inflicted npon her at the time. When the massacre was completed, she was one of three survivors, the other two being a little girl and Colonel Trav- THE ALAMO. is' negro servant, and her name will ever be linked in Texan history with those of the heroes of the Alamo. The famous old fortress was original ly the Spanish mission of San Antonio de Valero, and at the time of the siege its buildings covered about an acre of ground. Nothing is left of it now but the old stone church, the convent which formerly adjoined it having been long ago demolished, together with the wall which surrounded its garden. On one side of this historic building is a hideous wooden edifice, devoted to the wholesale grocery business, which ought to be demolished as an eyesore. It is said the proprietors of this business used the old church as a storehouse for their goods before the state purchased the property to insure its preservation.

The state board of public works is in a stew because the plans and specifications for all the state buildings are securely locked in the safe and nobody knows the combination. The inner door has not been locked since the 'present board was appointed. The combination for the heavy outside doors did service for the entire safe. Some youth who was visiting in the room experimented with the combination of the inner door and when S. M. Scott, chairman of the board, went to the safe for specifications for one of the new buildings he found the door closed and .the combination a lost art An expert locksmith was summoned and he decided that the only means of opening the safe was by chiseling out the combination lock. This task will require three days hard work. CALDERHEAD HAS IT. Editor Brlitow Appears to Have Lust the Chance tor "Nomination.

What ever possessed yo"4. to Lave such a monster mounted?. Colonel Bob Downing laughed at my plainly-expressed horror of the terrible beast he had set Tip in his smoking room-a creature more re pulsive even than in life, because of the taxidermist's faithful reproduc tion of a most suggestively ferocious and cruel expression on the face of the stuffed animal. "I had him set up there, Taylor, be cause of the associations," said Colonel Downing, finally. "But for the Great Jhoot Demon I should have still been knocking about the world a confirmed old bachelor, instead of be ing comfortably settled here in Lon don with the nicest little wife that ever man had." "You told me there was an interest ing story connected with your mar riage," I observed. "It is interesting and highly dra matic," he went on. "Light your cigar and take that easy-chair, so that you can keep the monster in view. It'll be a realistic aid to your imagina tion as my history of how I won Mr a. Downing develops itself. I adopted his suggestion, and never in my life did I listen to a story with such interest. Every word thrilled me, and I could well imagine myself an actor in the whole drama, and fancy that the life less beast within touch of my hand was alive and again the murderous demon of an Indian jungle. Just before the colonel began, I noticed that a email monkey, which had before escaped my attention, was perched among the limbs of a dwarf tree in front of the demon, that the taxidermist had used to give his sub ject a more life-like pose. I realized that the monkey was part of the picture, for its grinning face was turned toward the demon, and clinging to the limb with one paw, it had the other extended, as though pointing to something ahead. "What has the monkey to do with it, colonel?" I asked, my curiosity aroused. "The Lungoor? You shall hear. He plays a very important part in the story." With this assurance I was forced to be content, and settling himself in his chair, the colonel began. As an enthusiastic scientist and mighty hunter, he had traveled over every part of the globe, his wander ings having been chiefly in the wildest and most inaccessible portions of our planet. Three years ago, while in search of a peculiar plant which grows only in the deepest of East Indian jangles, and which he was employed to hunt up and secure specimens of, for a cele brated inventor, who wished to ex periment on the use of the pith of the plant in some electrical contrivance, the colonel found himself at Ram gar k, a Bengalene village at the foot of the Behar mountains. Here he was the guest of an ex army officer, Edward Meaney, whose beautiful daughter, Katharine, made a deep impression on the coloneir susceptible heart. To use his pwn description, "sha was a woman among women, courage ous, gentle, kind, sensible and accom plished." The major was the owner of an ex tensive plantation, situated about six teen miles from Bamgarh, where he had a very comfortably appointed bungalow, in which he lived a portion of the time, his only companion being his beautiful daughter. Major Meaney had a smattering of botanical knowledge and when his guest described the plant of which ha was in search, the major said: "I think that I have met with "it while hunting for the Jhoot Demon, in a dense jungle that lies .to the southwest of my place." "Hunting the what?" demanded the colonel, whose sporting instincts were aroused at the mention of a creature of which he had never before heard. "The Jhoot Demon." '"And what in the name of all that is horrible is a Jhoot Demon?" "It's the name the natives have given to an enormous man-eating tiger, which is the terror of that whole country." "Oh! the demon is only a tiger! And you say you have hunted for him? "Repeatedly." "Ever get a shot?" "Never." "I'll try my luck," said the colonel, carelessly. "111 combine business with pleasure. When I'm hunting for this plant, I'll look up his demonship." "Be careful that the demon does not look you up instead," continued Major Meaney. "Nonsense! I'm not an ordinary shikari (tiger hunter),- but a man who has slain over a hundred of the beasts. "That's exactly what poor Dick Culverton said, and Dick shot over fifty tigers in twelve months once, on a wager." "And did the tiger get him?" "Yes. In the past ten years the demon has killed every shikari, native or European, who went out against Jiim. He has never even been sees. gk and, as he never mangles, a body, bat only sucks -the blood through an orifice made over the jugular vein, the terror that the Jhoot Demon has inspired is not snrpri&ing. He does not confine himself to jungle man hunting, and, although he never forces a door, he has got into house after house. Last March he killed two of my servants, and a third, who was lying beside them, was not even awakened." "You excite my interest." "I shall do well if I develop your caution.. Before I went on half-pay, I was in command of a cantonment which "was pitched on what is now my plantation. Two of my subalterns likely lads went out for him and the next day were found dead like the rest." "Boys are proverbially careless." "Doubtless. One of the poor lads, with his last strength, had managed to scratch in the soft ground the words: 'Look out for a L But no amount of conjecture could solve the riddle of this uncompleted sen tence." "I shall certainly make it my busi ness to hunt up the demon." "Poor Dick Culverton left a message also, as creepy and mysterious ss that written by the boy. He had man aged before life left him, to grasp a twig, which was found in his stiffened fingers, and this'rude pen had written in the sand two letters before his strength failed him." "Those letters?" "A M answered the major. Far into the night, Major Meaney talked of the Jhoot Demon, its cun ning, its ferocity, its murderous ra pacity, and the colonei nodded his head, and more firmly than ever re- solved to hunt the terror of the jungle to his death. The day following they set out fo the plantation the colonel, Major Meaney and Miss Katharine. The bungalow was built close to a palm thicket, and the colonel was given an end room, the windows of which, protected only by a mosquito netting, overlooked this grove. The front corner room was occupied by Katharine Meaney, and as all were weary from their day's journey over the rough roads, they retired early. There was a full moon, and the col onel, arrayed only in his pajamas, seated himself at the window to smoke a cheroot before retiring. His feet were elevated on the low sill, and he was gazing dreamily out toward the palm grove, when there was an almost inaudible rustle of leaves among some low shrubbery which grew close to the bungalow, and looking sharply in that direction, he saw a little gray brown paw very cautiously putting aside Xhe twigs. Behind the paw he could discern two small green eyes attentively re garding him. "A lungoor!" he muttered to him self, as it vanished from view. "A monkey!" Then he sprang suddenly but noise lessly to his feet, and his whole frame quivered 'with excitement. "A lungoor a monkey!" he re peated, in a whisper. "What was the message that poor lad left? 'Look out for a L a lungoor, he meant. And Culverton's two enigmatical let ters, written with the twig as he lay dying, 'A M A monkey he meant. By George! there's mischief afloat!" Moved by a sudden inspiration, for which he could never afterward ac count, he picked up one of his heavy express rifles, both barrels of which were charged with explosive ball, and opening the door of his room stepped out into the wide verandah that en circled the bungalow. A mass of creepers growing up to the thatched roof afforded him a place of shelter, from which he could keep his eye on the shrubbery and command a view of the window of Katharine Meaney's room. He had scarcely got himself into position when the lungoor hopped out THE COLOUEL'S RIFLE KANG OUT. Into the clearing, the shrubbery shoo'f, and there followed the little creature pne of the mo&t repulsive-looking monsters his eyes had ever beheld. It was a gigantic tiger, absolutely naked, not a hair anywhere a huge, ghostly, globous monstrosity a very Caliban of tigers, as big as a bison and as long as a crocodile. As the ghostly creature crept after the monkey, he followed the slightest curve and deviation of his guide with the delicate alacrity of a needle under the influence of a magnet. The monkey crossed the little cleared place and made straight to ward one of the windows of the room, occupied by Kate Meaney, alongside of which was the beautiful girl's bed. Holding his breath. Colonel Down ing followed with wide, staring eyes, the movements of the two strange companions. The adroitness displayed by fhe tiger was suddenly converted into a subject of horrified wonder, for, as the brute approached the window be hind which lay the sleeping girl, b$ 'jmdmg

GIYEN THEM for Their Temporising; and Compro mising Volley on Che Tariff Bill. The Shawnee Democratic Club at ita regular meeting last night, adopted a long series of resolutions denouncing the tariil manipulators of their party which shows what Kansas Democrats think of thfiir party as representatives of the people. The resolutions contain the following: Whereas, It ia generally reported in the newspapers, and seems nowhere to be denied, that one Arthur P. Gorman, who represents, or. rather misrepresents, the people of Maryland in the United States senate, with what now appears to have been a design to entrap the tariff reformers of the senate, and prevent any tariff legislation at this session, did on the first of this month, cause a caucus of the Democrats of the senate to be held, in which it was stated that in order to insure the prompt passage of a tariff re form bill, it would be necessary for the Democrats to refrain from offering any amendments to the bill, from that time on, and to support any and all amend ments that might be proposed by the finance committee without question, which amendments would be slight and not change the essential character of the bill, and Whereas, The said resolution was then and there passed, by the said caucus binding the Democrats to such action under the belief so falsely induced by Senator Gorman and his coconspirators against tariff reform; and Whereas, After the passage of the said resoiutiaa, certain so-called Demo cratic senators, namely. Senators Gor man, Hill, Murphy, Biice, Smith, Irbv and Jones "of Arkansas, caused more than four "hundred amendments to be made to the tariff bill through the finance committee, thus completely changing it from a tariff reform meas ure to one essentially protective in its nature; now therefore Resolved, That the members of the Shawnee club denounce the said sena tors and all others who shall attempt or prevent the speedy passage of the tariil reform bill, as traitors to the Democratic party and the consumers of this countrj', and worther only to have their names written along side of that arch traitor Benedict Arnold; and that we confident ly call upon our Democratic senator, the Hon. John. Martin to do ail in his power to prevent the consummation of this iniquitous treachery to the Demo cratic party and the people of this coun try. The club elected the following new o fleers last night: President, W. A. Siiy- i der; Vice President 'Euirene Wolfe; Cor- i responding Secretary, J. Max Claudy; Recording Secretary, John Ilovendon; Treasurer, D. P. Elliott; Trustee, L. A. Stebbins. TEN THOUSAND PEOPLE In liliiellne Tent iwico at Vest onlay' PerrormaDces. Alf. T. Ringling says his main circus tent seats 10,000 people easily. If this is true nearly half of Topeka's popula tion must have witnessed one of the two performances; for at neither oue were there more than 500 vacant seats. Tl;e packed tent showed Topeka's apprecia tion for a first-class performance, for Ringlings' in jts line is the least objec tionable of any attraction. The perform ance was an enjoyable one for the per formers did their parts well, the horses were well trained, the band was above the average and the clowns were not very tiresome. One of them said to a donkey, "If you don't get up I'll knock you down." The man who announces the after-concert stole a march on the Topeka people and prevented their observing the old time-honored customof applauding him into silence or humiliatihg retreat to the dressing room. He didn't let the au dience know he was announcing the con cert until he was doue. The only safe way, it seems, is not to allow him to an nounce anything at all. What do people doing the circus and having a lark, care for announcements, indeed. Prof." Melville is the musician who plays the calliope. (If you call ic a cal-i-o-py the circus hands won't know what you meHQ.j Many of the circus hands took baths Sunday. There are eight "candy butchers" with the circus. Hjalmar Lundin, the strong man from Sweden, supported twelve men on his chest at last night's performance. The circus shows at Seneca today. The Ringlings deserved all the patron ago they got yesterday. A year ago and the year hefore 'they were prevented from exhibiting here on account of bad weather. The Bum of $163 in licenses was paid into the city treasury by the circus. The circus has a number of detectives constantly in its employ to nee that the employes are courteous and to prevent "grafting" of any description. The lion cubs are only seventeen days old. CIRCrS PLAYED SMASH With the Doeior Heeling Last Islght Only Eight Present. Eight o'clock, and not a single doctor in sight. Eight thirty and only eight doctors present. Such was the state of affairs at 723 Kansas avenue, last even ing. It was the regular meeting night of the Topeka Academy of Medicine and Surgery, but the circus had a greater at traction for many of .the doctors than the society. The faithful-ones were Doctors Re id Alexander, J. P. Lewis, B. M. Ward, J. a Dudley, H. T. Wehe, Maggie McCrea, Ida C. Barnes, Frances Storrs, Mary V. Church and Harriett E. Adams. There was only one paper to be dis cussed. Dr. Si. G. Stewart was down on the programme for a paper on "Neuritis," but as he failed to appear, there was nothing done. Doctors Lindsay, East man, McCrea and Wallace were down for discussion on the paper, but Dr. McCrea was the only one present. "Neuritis" is a disease, the common name of which is inflammation of the nerves. It was suggested that the society ad journ and go to the circus in a body, but as it was then 8:45 p. hi. it was thought that too much time had been spent in waiting. Dr. Reid Alexander, the presi dent, asked Dr. B. M. Ward why he wasn't at the circus. "Well, I'm getting too old to enjoy such things," replied the doctor. THE FEYER IS BROKEN. Chairman Simpson Says Kansas Is Well Over tbo Populist Crass. Mr. J. 'M. Simpson of McPherson," chairman of the Republican state cen tral committee, is in the city. He is in good spirits and is satisfied that the Re publicans will sweep the state this fall. He said to a Journal reporter: "The Republicans of the state are quite confident. There is evidence on all sides of a change in sentiment toward the Republican party. The failure of the Populists to accomplish any of the reforms promised by their platforms and their leaders, lias discouraged the rank and file of that party, while the Demo crats have become thoroughly disgusted with being classed as assistant Populists. "To those in. closest touch with the sentiment of the state it appears certain that the fever is broken and that Kansas is herself again. The people realize that under Republican administration no soldier. ever visited the" pension office with fear and trembling and no honest laborer was turned upon the highway." "What do you think will be the politi cal effect of the Coxey movement," was asked. "Well that is a delicate subject. No one can tell what the result will b or where the movement will end. The Populists hoped to receive strength from the movement but I think they are disap pointed and it is difficult to tell which, if any, party will receive any benefit" THE WAR ON QUACKS. Convention of Kansas Doctor Assem bles Today to Propose Legislation. The convention called by Dr. Dykes of the state board of health to consider changes in the laws governing the prac tice of medicine, assembled today at 3 p. m. in representative halt The main object of the doctors is to stop quacks from practicing in Kansas. They will recommend the enactment of the Illinois lav governing practicing physicians. This law provides that the state board of health shall conduct ex aminations for physicians who.desire to practice and if a satisfactory Bhowing is made a certificate i3 issued by the board granting the applicant the right to prac tice. AVhen a diploma is held, it must be submitted to the board for verification and if found satisfactory a certificate is issued The county clerk of each county keeps a record of the certificates which is open to inspection. The law provides a penalty of $100 for the first offense and $200 for the second. The convention will also recommend changes in the law governing the sale of patent medicines. A law requiring the publication of all the ingredients of patent mediciues on the label will prob ably be recommended PRESBYTERIAN ASSEMBLY. Til j An ti-Bri jjjj Element Predominates by a ltaiio of Four to One. Saratoga, N. Y., May 15. The general assembly of the Presbyterian-church of the north opens here today and will con tinue for four days. It will be the eighteenth annual meeting and unlike the Albany synod two years ago at which the Briggs element was in the ascendency this convention will be anti-Briggs in the ratio of about four to one. The lines to the convention will be clearly drawn on this issue and a test of the strength of the factions will be made when a modera tor is elected on. Thursday. The candidates will be Arthur B.. Rowan, D. D., of Port land, Ore., for the Briggs side; Henry C. Clinton, D. D., of San Francisco, Samuel A. Mutchmore, D. D., of Philadelphia, Col. John M. Cook of New York city and James Gardner, D. D., of Gloversville, N. Y., for the anti-Brigg3 men. Topics that will come before, the con vention for discussion may be named briefly as follows: Proposition to so frame the charters of theological semin aries that they cannot, like the Union theological, divorce themselves from the assembly. The list of seminaries in volved includes Princeton, McCormick of Chicago, Auburn of New York state and Lane of Cincinnati. These institutions possess large endowments and are in receipt yearly of fresh gifts, all of which come from Presbyterian sources and are held to be used for de nominational purposes. The appeal of Henry Preserved Smith, charged with heresy in his relation to the Briggs case, is an inquiry as to Dr. Briggs' conduct since his suspension and a motion to depose him from the ministry; the question of consolidation of the Presbyterian and Episcopal churches and also the ten fed erations of Presbyteriaus; proposition for a new method of Sunday school teach ing in contravention to the Westminster catechism; discussion of the circular is sued by the Briggs' adherents and which is alleged to be rebellious. NO MONEY IN IT. The lCite On Cereals From Denver Now Cut to Cents. Denver, May 15. Today a cut from the 15 cent rate to 12J cents on cereals and other products from Kansas and Ne braska, was announced. The freight war has simmered down to a test of en durance between the railroads, and if long continued will probably result in receiverships for the weaker lines. It is estimated that the earnings:of the roads will show a falling off of $3,000,000 for May. DIDN'T BEGIN THE CUT. George Gonld Says 3Ilsonrl Puclfle Isn't Itpspoiiilble for Drop in Kates. New York, May 15. To an Associated Press reporter George Gould said today: "The Missouri Pacific ia in no way re sponsible for the drop in freight rates. The reduction was first put in effect by the Atchison and the Missouri Pacific only followed reductions made by other roads which was necessary to protect their customers. The Missouri Pacific will restore rates whenever its competi tors will do bo." 1 The Rossville Ueleestes.
