McCook strove to break into the nfair by moving to proceed with the vot Miller trier! to get him to not with draw Fepew's name, but he insisted and named Warner Miller. "That's the issue; that's it: a traitor acainst a Republican," shouted Dele tiate .Vidridtt-e. Then Senator John Raines, arose and in scathing terms denounced Millet.

Explains By Wire to His Chief ?iIajor 31 c Kinley THAT TARIFF ISSUE Can't lie Brought to the Front By Any Device. It Is an Irrepressible Conflict Between Silver and Gold. From Our Special Corresnondent. St. Louis, June 13. A private tele graph wire runs from the rooms occu pied by Mr. Hantia into the residence of Major Mi Kinley. In the cor respondence ov; r this wire today. Mc Kinley expre ssed himself as disa ppoi r. t ed that tin- tariff was not being brought more prominently to the front. He ad monished his trusted manager at this end that lie should devote his entire intiueiice to making the tariff the 'trie dominating question of the canvass. In response Mr. Hanna stated that tin- financial question would not down; that it confronted him at every turn, and it was beyond his power to repress the contest between gold and silver. McKinley tii,-n took another turn at the wire. He .advised Hanna to assure ail Republicans seeking his advice that hia-h protection would, of itself, settle the financial question: that with a ie turn to the ini'.ort duties imposed by thc McKinley tariff law-, til" countty would cuter up,,n an era of prosperity t'uat would relegate the money ques tion to the r.-ar. Mr. Hanna has made the experiment of sub,,;-, i i r m t iug the financial issue to tiiat of the tariff to a.n extent sumc-h-nt to convince him tiiat it is not within tie car acit.c of the most potent leaders to accomplish this end. As th- authorized rep.resen t a t i vc and spokesman of McKinley, Mr. Hanna cle cliues to commit himself to a gold pro nunciairiento. He advises, so far as he is willing, to iro in making suggestions on the subject, that the platform can be constructed without containing a ci-. hiration as to gold. The indications are that there will be a prolonged contest in the commit tee on resolutions over the financial plank. The free coinacte Republicans will be defeated in short order. They w ill then, if Senator Hubois understands their purpose, unite with the gold men and vote for a distinctive gold platform. The conservative-, or moderate element, will contend for a declaration th.at will enable them to combat the silver senti ment in their respective districts. They have expressed their willingness to ac cept the Indiana platform with the ref erence to the- ratio eliminated, or to take a declaration that the Republican party will support the free coinage of silver when that policy shall have been approved by an international confer e l c-e. The emba rrassing point is that any phrase designed to placate the pro silver Republicans, may offend the staunch gold men of the east. The other horn to the dilemma is that the device to capture silver votes may be too feeble to satisfy that element and thus fail of effect. These di tlieul ties are seriously worrv ing Mr. Hanna and h- will feel greatly relieved when the committeee on resolutions shall have been named. M. F. M. HANSEKOUGH'S WAY OUT. One Western Senator's View of the Situation. From Our Special Corrt so, .nd .-iit. St. Louis, June 13. "The financial --lank will prooably declare for "the existing standa'-d." said. Senator Ilans bronvrht today-. "The object of so declaring- is to permit the voter to determine what that standard is. The platform managers, however, know that it is the? gold standard. Wo who believe in the use of both gold and silver as standard money have abandoned hope th.at the two metals are to be recognized on equal terms. In view of the fact that all former Republican platforms have declared in favor of the two metals as standard money, we who favor silver a lid who believe that the Republican party must eventually adopt bimetal lism, have a right to demand that the nominee and the party stand pledged out of the mouth of this convention, in that behalf to the foil extent of houesty and persistently laboring for an inter national agac-eme-nt and th.at bimetal lism shall be contended for in t-very feature of our trade relations with for eign gold countries. "1 should favor prohibitive duties upon the wines, liquors and other lux uries imported from foreign countries until those countries cons, ntetl to agree upon bimetallism. The banking and bond elements of the east do not want bimetallism, but the producers and toilers of the west and south do want it. and will not close their campaign until they get it." HAVE 13 STATES NOW. Gold Men "Capturing" the States One by One How?. St. Louis. June 15. Mr. Piatt, Mr. La uterbaeh. Mr. Depevv, Mr. Haekett, and Mr. Fassett were in Mr. Piatt's room today when the Maryland dele gation arrived and announced that they would stand by Mr. Piatt's propo sition to insert the word "gold" in the platform. Chairman Haekett of the Xew- York committee said when this occurred: "Well this is 1;! states, just as many as they started the Union with." After the withdrawal of the delega tion Mr. Flatt tacitly admitted that the issue for which Xew Y'ork was now hghting was gold instead of Morton. The delegation would show its loyalty to its candidate but would make its strongest fiirht for the maintenance of the present goid standard. Mr. Piatt said this morning: "Gov. Morton is for the gold standard and his platform since his candidacy was pro moted, has been for the use of the word "gold" in the platform. Therefore, if we win this tight we shall have won a partial victory- for Gov. Morton even if h- is not nominated." Mr. Lauteroaeh said this morning, when asked to detine the present status of the gold fight: "Why, it seems to me that we are in this position. Mr. Hanna is at present In control of the conven tion. If we continue to gain recruitss ha may concede to ua the honor c drafting the plank. If he does not, we believe we are strong enough to beat him; then he will arrange a plank with out a definite mention of gold He has neither denied nor affirmed our proposition as yet. We are making a hot f.srht and canvass of the matter, and if it be not settled by- tomorrow we wiil bring it to the attention of the convention. I do not want to be thought disparaging in my view of the McKin ley strength, but I do say that the precipitation of a fight over gold in the convention might turn the fnrht toward some other candidate o5 defeat Mc Kinley. Of course I appreciate that his managers are shrewd enough to seek cover." Mir. Piatt had representatives mjt in all quarters this morning and his call ers were many. Senator Lodge, who is managing with vigor the Reed cam paign, called early in the day and an nounced that he had been practically notified by the Hanna people that lie would not be allowed t o dictate terms on platform. Mr. Piatt smiled at the information and said: "Well, we may together change that attitude before tiie day is over." PLATT IN DANGER. Some of His 64 Delegates Become Unruly. .St. Louis. June 15. The meeting of the X'evv York delegation today was marked bv an attempt to retire Thus. C. Piatt. When the delegation was 'called to order it was understood that Chaunct-y M. Lepevv was to be named as chair man of the caucus, and that Mr. l'iatt was to be selected as chairman of the1 delegation., but Warner Miller had been in conference a!! morning with the McKinley managers, and wlien the j double p. reposition was made, he was upon his feet in an instant. "I move Mr. Chairman. that the rani-1 of Mr. Fcpew he substituted lor that of Mr. Piatt." he said. Surprise was written on all faces, and even Mr. Ltepevv seemed taken a'-aek. "I did this because th most distin guished man on this delegat ion lias been entirely neglected," said Mir. Mil ler. There were cries of "Xo." and a mo tion was at once made to divide the question. Mr. Ijepevv was then se lected as chairman of the caucus by a unanimous vote. Th- question was put as to the selection of Mr. matt for the delegation and Mr Miller rene-'.vc-d his resolution to substitate Mr. Dep. w's name. Mr. De-pew sat silent, and Con gressman Quigtr. in hi oosir.g the sub stitution, attacked Mr. Miiler in a vig orous and most vicious manner. Refore Mr. Miller could answer Mr. Quigg. Frederick S. Oi'ohs had obtained recognition and moved that the delega tion take a recess until 3 o'clock this afternoon. A BIG SUNDAY' DRUNK Is What the Visitors Made of St Louis Yesterday. St. Louis. June 13. Although it took from dawn until midnight for the up roar of Republican enthusiasm to reach a climax, it required scarcely two hours for the excitement to sub side. It collapsed like a pricked bal loon and by Z o'clock the town had re sumed its normal state save that the cabbies were busier. So, too. were the all-night saloons and restaurants. In these were congre gated the visitors who had come here for a "time." Here and there through the- down town streets were groups of roistering pleasure seekers and poli ticians reeling to theur hotels. (Some of them we're still piossessed with the wild melodious craze that prevailed an hour before and in a maudlin way sang disc-on neetod snatc h es from popular airs. As morning ap proaches, they become less frequent and at iength a. quiet almost to that of a Connecticut country church was at tained. So ended Sunday night in St. Louis. M'KIKLEY STOCK FALLING. The Talk of Gold Plank Doing Him Up in the Western States. St. Louis, June 1.3. Mr. Wm. Staple ton, editor of the I.tenver Republican, arrived this morning-. "All delegates from Washington and South Dakota," he said, "came in on the Burlington and all are red hot for McKinley. bi metallism and protection, for bimetal lism particularly. They say they can carry their slates with bimetallism in the platform, but if the convention adopts the gold standard on a strad dle they can not clo it. at all. Would have no chance whatever. A decline in enthusiasm was very ap parent they said. Three weeks ago every thing was McKinley and he could have swept the states, but since the. agitati-m of the money question his stock is not as high as it was. In Colo rado we have nothing against McKin ley but we feel very strongly- on the money question. If a gold standard or a straddle is adopted, Colorado will give 100,u(ia against the ticket." AT M'EINLEY HEADQUARTERS. McKinley Has 650 Assured Out of 918. St. Louis. June 15. At McKinley headquarters today th.-re was more of a jam than heretofore, but there is no change in the claims of Grosvenor, Hanna. and Thompson, who do the tab ulating. Unless there is some break from the opposition the M Kinley vote will not exceed fc4 0 out of flS. on the estimate of his managers. The with drawal of Governor Rradley of Ken tucky has been anticipated. Mr. Hanna during the forenoon re ceived the southern delegations. There were no secret conferences today, but representatives from most of the states called before the state delegations for organization and reported how they stood.

Anti-31eliinley Delegates Ex acting In Their Demands For au Unequivocal Gold Stand ard Flank Because They Want to Fut :Ic Kinley "In a Hole." ARE Wr" ACTUATED So Much By Principle As By SJaliciousuess. Radical Gold Flank May let Be Rejected. St. Louis. June 15. Today promises to be one of platform agitation. The three-cornered lignt has drawn tiie lines very sharply. The men from the east who ate demanding gold in the platform are determined, and such men as Lodge, Piatt and other opponents of McKinley seem to feel that they are placing McKinley in a hole by insist ing tiiat an emphatic gold declaration shall be made. '1 hen- programme is to force the fight in the committee on resolutions, and if they cannot win in the committee to carry it to the door of the convention. Lodge, the Reed manager, is to 1-ad the tight for a gold declaration. If it is not granted he and his friends t-ml other Ree-d men have a faint hope- that the refusal to put gold in t'ne platform will solciify the gold vote on ite-al. It has been the effort of the friends of McKinley to avoid a fight on the floor of the convention between the two factions favoring the single standard and against free coinage. There has been a drift toward a moderate expres sion in favor of gold and there is quUe a. pressure from several states for a declaration against free coinage1 and not to ha ve the word gold used in the platform at all. Senator Lodge, who has drafted a gold declaration and se cured its indorsement by representa tives of a number of state-s, has been pressing his plattk with, a great deal of perisistency- and has irritated s uite of those who would prefer a milder dec laration. General Grosvenor of Ohio said this morning: "We know that there is be ing a great effort made to secure a certain form of declaration. The prob abilities are that no one wiil knew what the financial plank will be until the committee on resolutions reports. It may be that the fight as to the- form of resolution will be carried to the con vention. The financial plank will be what we want, and that, is all there is to it." The silver men were at first disposed to aid the ultra eroid men in securing the straig-htest kind of a declaration, but there is an indication that they- are not quite soenthusiastic in that direction as at first. There are some who seem anxious to make a dramatic- exit f om the convention hall, but a count up to date finds a number of waverers, and the probability that there will lie any delegates to make the proposed grand static! play seems a little doubtful. There is a disposition toward m.ni.-ei-tion among some very prominent silver men. which may make the bolt 1 ?ss pretentious than advertised. In the headquarters of all the candi dates for the presidency who are op posed to Mr. McKinley there is a gen eral air of la ssit ude that demonstrates a realization that any attempt to stem the tide towards his nominatit.ri wiil be vtnsuceessf ul. Even t'ne temporary elation felt in the Maine hendquaiters and participated in by the Xew York ers over the threat made lay a majority of the colored voters that they would withdraw their support from idcKiniey and throw it to Reed, was not deep rooted and the lack of enthusiasm seems to rather dampen the1 at .ieircif t he colored men who had expected a royal reception. Carefully analyzed this morning and the analyzation presented to the several leaders for approval. the result may be summed up about as fol lows: The names of Morton. AlMson, Quay and Reed will be presented to the coiivc-ntlon for a vote with no other rea son than to prove the delegates' and state d legations' loyalty. The battle thus morning is purely up on financial grounds. Maryland's dele gation catne to Mr. Piatt's rooms earl.v t'uis morning ami declared for a gold standard, with the word gold in the plank. This means i: states that have promised to stand by Mr. Piatt. Xew York included. As yet Ohio has not sig nified a willingness through Mr. Hanna to accept this, and so sure is the latter of the conclusion of the convention, that he believes that he can either al low the easterners to fix the plank', in cise use his own judgment and strike it out. CONVERTING COLORED MEN. As Soon as They Can be Got Round To, They Desert McKinley. St. Louis. June 15. The Reed men are jubilant over the results of a colored mass meeting held yesterday afternoon at which representatives from Florida. Alabama, and South Carolina declared for Mr. Reed, and practically withdrew their names from the McKinley col umn. The meeting was called by Con gressman Murray, of South Carolina, the only colored representative in con gress. About 12"i1 colored delegates and alternates attended, and there was great enthusiasm when Delegate John son of Alabama, who has been account ed a McKinley roan, spoke for ?,Ir. Reed, as did Caleb Simms of X'evv Y'ork. and Mr. J. Christopher. The meeting was not adjourned until morn ing. The eastern financial institutions with "barrels" are supportiry; the Keed booux. INGALLS' SHOT AT PEFFER. Brains, Not Hair, Will Win This Year, He Says. St. Louis. Mo., June 15. John J. In galis called at the Kansas headquar ters today but did not stay long, for there were some reporters around and he said that he did not care to say any thing which might get into the news pa 1 ers. ingalls made the same declaration the day he arrived in St. Louis, but he could not resist the temptation to make a remark which was something of a drive at Senator Peffe.-. A loeai paper addressed a note to Mr. Installs requesting him to answer the question whether long haired men were successful in politics. "Bearded men have had their day." Ingalls replied. '-Whiskers will not be in it this year. Brains, patriotism, and wisdom will be substituted for hair." A MIDDLE COURSE Preferred by Michigan on the Money Plank. St. Louis, June 15. The Michigan delegation had a long discussion on the financial plank, General Alger and Cap tain Allen representing the two ex tremes, the former favoring a straight declaration for gold and Captain Alit n appealing for free silver. The majority of the d-l.'gation, how ever, believed in a middle course ami expressed the opinion that the plank should declare for the maintenance of tlte p resent monetary syst in. gold, sil ver and paper, but avoid a speciiic declaration for the gold standard.

In struct ex-Governor Me-rriam, member of the committee on resolutions, to in sist on siraigrht gold plank. and pledged IS votes of the delegation to stand by him to the end. Representative Chas. O.

New Hampshire Delegates Doesn't Want the Party Riding Two Horses. St. Louis, June 15. The Xew Hamp shire delegation is d'-voting its ener gies to securing votes for a gold stand ard plank. YV. D. Sawyer, one of the delegates, said: "Xew Hampshire delegates want the words 'gold standard' used in the tlnan vial pdank. We want t'ne platform so clearly detined for gold that campaign spec-has made in the silver states can not I'.1 telegraphed east and represent that the Republican party is working for free silver."

A movement has bec-n Stirling to have the convention place its candidates in the field before adopting n platform on the theory that this course would permit western del egates who contemplated bolting on a gold platform to first assist in nomina ting ca nciidates. The proposition lias met with little favor and will probably not be pushed. West Virginia for Gold. St. Louis. June 15.

June 15. WarnerMiller at 2 o'clock this afternoon gave this state ment to the Associated Press: "This is not a question of men. The nomina tion of McKinley is conceded. The question shall the delegation from New York lose all their self-respect and se lect as the-ir spokesman a man who has declared that McKinley is an unfit person to sit in the presidential cha ir. "It is a question whether the dele gates shall have for their mouthpiece Mr. Dejiew, who, while1 loyal to Gov. Morton, has not befouled the name of the next president and has conducted his campaign decently or Thomas C. Piatt, who has repeatedly blackguarded and outraged the personality- of the nominee of the convention. The Vote of the delegates this afternoon will demonstrate how they want the atti tude of Xew Y'ork understood." LODGE OX FLAT FOR. II. Says the Word "Gold" Will Certainly Be Used. St. Louis, June 15. Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, who lias had much to do Willi the putting of new vitality into the movement for the, absolute declar ation for the gold standard in the na tional platform said today that he con sidered the battle as practically won. "We have been actively at work all day," he said, "ami have received so rauiiy- assurances that we cannot lon ger doubt the success of our movement. "The eastern states are all coming into line and many other states as well. We have assurances from more than twenty state delegations that they will stand with us. many of them being the states most largely represented in the cciiv t-ntioii." "Wiil the word gold be used?" "To be sure. The object of the move ment is to secure an un. '.quivocal dec laration for the gold standard. There wiil be no evasion or equivocation." In reply to a question as to whether Mr. Hanna acquiesced. Mr. Lodge said very significantly that he had not seen him. nor consulted with him today. The Massachusetts deb-ation is making a systematic- canvass of all the delegations to ascertain the exac t sen timent upon the proposition to make a gold declaration. They have had prepared t ype-wt itten copies of a plank declaring for the existing gold standard until bimetallism can be se cured by an international agreement.

For tunately, that praeious and princ-ly man conducted himself with such die r.ity and propriety that enmity was rii's tamed, and a formidable crisis averted. But it was an admonition to the nation that should be remembered i ow. "Four times within the memory of living" men have the tremendous possi bilities of the vice presidency been ex hibited. Four times twice by death, and twice by assassination has the vice president become president, and in each case for a larpe part of the presidential term. In three of these in stances the accidental president has abandoned and betrayed the party to which he owed his elevation. "The nomination of McKinley being a forepone conclusion, the question, therefore, of his associate is assuming prominence in the public mind. It is more than conjecture and surmise that the managers would exult if Reed would consent to take the second place on the ticket. His locatiem is ood. His opinions are sound.. He could placate New Kreedand and the conservative ele ments. His equipment is unrivaled. The people are not enamored of tiie senate. They are impatient with its methods. Its forms and ceremonies and prece dents are antiquated. It is regarded as a foeay, cob we:, by. mouldy body that needs to be modernized and brought up to date, and the people believe Tom lieeil could do it. "It seems absurd that tbe b-cends and traditions and usages of antiquity should enable one man, or five men, by pertinacious loquacity and frivolous motions to deny justice and todefeat the will cf tiie people. Reed could put the senate in line with the li"h centu i y. but the lat arrivals from Washing ton report that his refusal to take any subordinate position is rather more than positive, belnc, garnished with ex pletives and epithets which leave no doubt of his sincerity. It has been sug gested that the convention mipht nomi nate him unanimously by acclamation as its best act ami adjourn, thus reliev ing him from the embarrassment of de clininLT an unprecedented honor, but th.is would hardly lie prudent in his present state of mind." -RECEPTION AT CANTON.

TIIE C0UMI1Y TTISIIES Confidence, and the Republicans Alone Can Inspire It. Burton Says Democrats Did Not Cause Hard Times. But Accentuated Them and 3Iade Ceaseless Blunders. From Our Special Correspondent. Sc. Louis, June 15. J. R. Burton has been in town several days mixing with the politicians and watching events. He says he is simply an onlooker and disclaims any political intent in spite of the fact that that is the purpose of al most every man who conies to the con vention. Mr. Burton talked freely of general topics, but didnt care to be quoted concerning his campaigm. "The Kansas delegation to the na tional convention is in some respects a strong one." said Mr. Burton. "There are a number of influential individ uals on it. For instance, Murdock is, in my opinion, one of the strongest edi torial writers in the state of Kansas. He is in favor of free silver. The delegation, generally speaking-, I am advised, is not for free silver. The party In the state seems to be agrainst it. But as to what will be done on this question I hare no idea. I hope that hatever is done there will be no friction. I think there should be har mony. I hope that the action which is taken will not create dissensions and that there will be no sores left among the party." Mr. Burton was then asked directly if he thought the Republicans of Kan sas are favorable to free silver. He said: "I do not think a majority of the Republicans are anxious to have free silver. There is. however, quite a sen timent for it and a friendliness for free silver prevails in a stronger degree in some portions of the state than in others, but taking: it all in all. I do not believe the Republicans of the state are advocates of the white metal. There is in fact a dominant sentiment in some sections for free silver, and this is not ably so around Wichita and cither local ities near by. There are also other sections where it is equally strong. "I think the dominant issue at this time is to put the Republican party back Into power. The general feeling is that it can be trusted on any platform, but that the Democratic party can't be trusted on any platform. "There is a deep seated feelinp of confi lenee in the Republican party while the people seem to have learn ed to look with distrust on the Demo cratic party. This comes from the fact that the Democratic party is charged with the creation of bad times, stagna tion in business circles and general de pression. This is correct in some respects, but as a matter of fact I do not think we should lie so radically partisan as to endeavor to humiliate the Democratic party with the charges that it has not been a party of prosperity, although the facts I must admit would lead one to that impression, and the people of the country as well as the state of Kansas believe that the Republican party is the one that they can trust to restore confidence and bring- prosperi ty. "I concur in that view to some ex tent. Rut as a matter of fact the de pression of 1 S f c5 and the several subse quent years was started by natural causes. There had been too much zeal in general investments fe,r years before that, and the crisis was bound to come. Other nations felt it and we did not fail to pet our share. But right here is where the Democratic party had its influence on the situation. It was lust at the time when there should be no tine ei t a i. ty. when stability was tne chief demand that tbe Democratic par ty came into power on the issue of tar iff reform. "Th-n came the change and it had serious rt suits. Then there should have been confidence, but instead of that from the agitation of the tariff. There was nothing to insure confidence just when it was most needed. The tariff bill did not yield sufficient revenue to maintain the expenses of the govern ment. Bresident Cleveland trenched on the gold reserve and th.ot created dis trust as every man who had money be gan to fear the worst. Then again many mistakes were made, and blun der after blunder has been committed by the Cleveland administration. The people seem to believe that the Demo cratic party is responsible for the ex periences which they ha.d in the busi ness and commercial world, and they are going to vote the Republican tick et and put the parly back into power, placing implicit confidence in Its abili ty to solve the financial qmestion. I think the people agree now on the ques tion of tariff." In reply to a question Mr. Burton said he had no idea what will tie done by the national convention on the ques tion of platform, as he was not suffi ciently posted to say. He says he has been here more as a looker on and has simply been snepdiug- his time ir. meet ing his friends and acf tiaintances aod holding conversations with them. "I do not know what they ought to do," he said, "on the financial question, but I do not think there should be a straddle. The declaration should, in my opinion, be so explicit that it cannot be interpreted in two ways. That is the only honest way, and I believe that the honest way will win in politics just as it does in everything else. Whatever the position taken may be.

Xra.ies Unions "Want IX: in to Answer Some Pertinent Questions. Cleveland. June 15 Tbe Central Labor union is after Marcus Aurelius Hanna. Mc-Kinley's manager, witn a sharp stick. Resolutions were unan imously adopted as follows and will be sent to Chairman Carter of the na tional committee: "To the Republican Trades Unionists of the United .States: "Realizing that in a few short months the union workingmen of this country wall again be asked to cast their bal lots for president, we, the delegates of the organized laboring people of Cleve land, appeal to Republican wage work ers who have been repeatedly told by their party newspapers and politicians that they muse imitate capital and or ganize if they would enjoy the benefits of a higher tariff, to demand that Lion. Marcus A. Hanna, the principal man ager of William McKinley (who, as stated, will be a member of the latter's sabinet in case he is nominated and elected), explain his attitude to labor organizations: "1. Ask Hon. M. A. Hanna if he did not aid in destroving the Seamen's unions of the lower lake regions and I then contribute to a fund to send A. R. Rumsey, his scab procurer, on a pleas ure trip around the world as an ac knowledgement of his services. "2. Ask Major McKinley's bosom friend, the Hon. M. A. Hanna, if he has not taken a prominent part in wrecking the Mine Workers' unions of Pennslyvania. ":i. Ask this tremendous political gen eral, who fleeces his workingmen with one hand and spends money lavishly with the other to purchase a presi dency, Ml. A. Hanna. if he did not de stroy the union of his street railway employes and positively refuse to al low them to organize. "4. Ask the president maker Hanna if he did not say to the striking em ployes of the C-lobe shipyard that $1.30 per day is sufficient wages for them fwhen competitors were paying more), but if they would vote for McKinley he w-ould favor paying $1.50 a day. "5. Ask the unselfish Hanna if he is not at this moment erecting a mansion for his son and employing scab labor and d'regarding the wage rate and the eight hour day of the building trades. "Finally, ask Mr. Hanna, before his candidate is given a nomination for the highest honor in the land, if destroying workingmen's unions and paying pau per wages for long hours of toil is his interpretation of protection to Ameri can labor, and prosperity and patriot ism." OPINION OF 31 R. CARNEGIE. Wants Gold and Says Finance Not Tariff is the Issue. Boston, June 15. Mr. Andrew Car negie, who is now on his annual tour in Europe, was interviewed in Naples by a correspondent of the Globe recently on the subject of Maj. McKinley's can ciclaev for president and the possibil ities of the Republican campaign. Mr. Carnegie was asked: "Do you think the election of Mc Kinley would mean a return to the McKinley tariff','" "Not necessarily to the former tar iff, though that was a splendid tariff; but it will be the duty of the party, w hoover it elects, to revise the tariff to meet the needs of the government and more, we must have the day of sur pluses again. The fight in the campaign is not to be, in my mind, one of tariff, but for a, standard of monetary value. The Republican platform should be for gold, and the campaign should be car ried on with gold for its watchword My idea of the Republican programme is this: First, nominate a strong man on a "old platform, and make the fight for sound currency and a solid stand ard: secondly, on the party's return to power and I assume that any man the party puts up can bo elected its first work should be to adjust the tariff so as to get sufficient money to pay the expenses of the government and leave a monthly surplus, which should be used to lessen the demand gold obliga tions afloat; third, exploit reciprocity." BUFFALO HERD DELAYED. Austin Corbin Had Loaned 50 to Van Courtiandt Park. New Tork, June 15. There is at pres ent much speculation among the offi cials of Van Courtiandt park as to when the herd of buffalo are to be re ceived from the New- Hampshire pas tures of the late Austin Corbin. It will be remembered that early in May the late Mr. Corbin appeared be fore the board of park commissioners and asked permission to place a herd of 50 buffalo in Van Courtiandt park. Mr. Corbin agreed to bear the expense of enclosing about 80 acres of land with a wire fence of sufficient strength to keep the buffalo in the enclosure, and to make any other improvements that might be deemed necessary. Ha further agreed that one-fourth of the Increase of the herd should belong to the park. Since Mr. Corbln's tragic death, how ever, nothing further has been said or done, and while it is quite probable that the original number of buffalo stip ulated will be shipped by Mr. Corbin's heirs or executors, still it will probably be some time before the animals ar rive.

Centenary Celebration of the Ayrshire Poet's Death. Slemorial Observances that Will At tract Scotchmen From AH Over the "World Oil Jaly 21 it will be just a century since the death of Eobert Burns. On that day not only all of Scotland will revive tho memories of the beloved poet, but Scotsmen will gather from the four quarters of the earth to take part in or witness the centenary memorial cele brations. And not only on the banks of bouny Doon and in other parts of Scot land, but in every country where the Enlgish language is spoken, will the memory of the Ayrshire poet be brought to rniud. From this country, where perhaps there are almost as many of old Scotia's sons as in the Land o' Cakes itself, will go large delegations for the pur pose of participating in the celebration. Almost every Scottish society in Amer ica will send representatives, who will gather at various places in their native land. Andrew Caruogie, who is the honorary president of the New York Scottish society, will go, of coutse, as will many other noted sons of Scotland. Many huudreds, if not thousands, will cros3 the sea mainly for the purpose of seeiug the memory of their favorite poet honored on the familiar heath. All of Scotland, highland and low land, will celebrate. The birthday of Burns has been for years almost a na tional holiday there, but this year is to be a Burns year above all others. In the principal cities and at some of the places which Burns made famous there will be elaborate ceremonies, which will attract great audiences. At Edinburgh and Glasgow especially there will be programmes of memorial exercises that will include literary, musical and con vivial features. One of the chief events will occur at Dumfries, where is located one of the largest of the many monuments that the Scots have erected to the memory of the popular bard. The celebration there will be conducted by the Dumfries Burns club and the Earl of Rosebery will act as president. Local clubs and societies, with representatives of similar organi zations from all parts of the world, will join in precession and march to the mausoleum where wreaths and othei emblems will be deposited and fitting exercises held. After the return from the monument there will be a public banquet m a large hall at which speeches and singing will be indulged in as a matter of course. At Dunoon, a quaint old Scot tish village on the Firth of Clyde, will be un veiled a heroio bronze statue of Highland Mary. It stands on the rocks in front of the ruins of the ancient strong hold known as Dunoon castle. The site is the most appropriate one that could have been chosen, HIGHLAND MARY STATUE. a9 it is not far distant from the farm house of Auchmore. where was born Mary Campbell, the early love of Burns, whom he mourned when he sang: Now preen 's the sod and canld's the clay That wraps my Highland Mary. The statue can be seen for miles up and down the river and marks one of the many historic spots in the neighbor hood. The artist who executed the work is D. W. Stevenson, R. S. A., who took the details of the costume from the works of David Allen, who well knew Highland Mary and was, in his clay, fa mous for his illustrations of Scottish life and scenes, so it may safely be said that the statue is historically correct. Just across the waters of the Clyde is the Ayrshire coast which is replete with memories of Burns. In the city cf Ayr itself stands a fine statue of the poet which was unveiled a few years ago. Nct far from this statue, just outside the town, is tbe humble, cottage in which Burns was born. The "auld clay biggin" is now a cher ished spot and is religiously cared for by a society which, with true Scottish thrift, charges small admission to each visitor to the shrine of poesy. The cot tase elands today, it is said, as it did when, on that cold windy day iu Jan uary, 1759, "rautin, rovin Robin" first saw the light. Even now you can read ily sec in what intense poverty Bums must have lived. There are only two rooms in the house outside of those used as a barn. It was iu the kitchen where Burn3 was born. The rocf is low aud is scarcely six feet from the floor of broken flagstone. There is a fireplace on one side, where the family cooking was done, and the bed is made in a deep ledge beside it. A table and some chairs constitute the furniture of the room. It was here, as the poet him self htts described it, that he was born, wheu O'er monarch's hindmost year but ana Vas five and twenty d:iys begun. Tns then a blast o' J.uiawur' win Blew hansel in on Robin. And hansel indeed did blow, for the wind lifted the roof from one end, and Burns' mother was forced to take shel ter in the house of a neighbor. John F. Willougeby. The Oldest love tetter.

A Steady Eain Cominnr Down on i Enthusiastic Coiiveiitioners. Massachusetts Arrives and Its i'elloiv Posters C0YEII EVERYTHING. Demanding the Solid Gold Standard riank. Silver Men Hold a Conference This Morning. St. Louis, June 15. The president makers awoke today to a dreary driz zle of rain which fell like a wet blanket over the gaudy street decorations and repressed whatever tendency there might have ben to demonstrative enthu siasm of the sort which on the day be fore cropped out suiiiciently to give an old time air to the city. There were no brass bands, nor any marching: nor shouters: the delegations and clubs whicn had pulled into the de lict during the early hours, preferring to remain on their trains, or take to the street cars rather than inarch over the muddy paveme-nts. About the corridors of the big hotels stale cigar smoke hung heavy and me dallioned citizens from back states who had forgotten to go to bed. rubbed their eyes and looked about for the ar rival of the leaders who were late in putting in their appearance at the head quarters of the states. An early stroke of enterprise was to be seen at the Massachusetts parlors w here enlore-d m'-n eie pesited several bales of posters, samples of which they proceeded to paste on every available space. These posters were of an ag gressive yellow lint which caught the eye at a distance, and their flaming red tlanie.-, announced that "we are for gold." The Massachusetts men ha ve re sorted to this spectacular device to im press their financial views upon the coavention, intending also to placard the town witti their announcement, and to keep in circulation the banner with the alteration "Solid as gold for Reed; solid as Reed for gold." Trie reverse of the? financial picture was furnished by the silver men. wiio were among tiie earliest to gather in tiie lobbies of the Planters', retreating to an alcove, where a dozen of th'tn drew their chairs into a circle for con sultation. In the group were Hart man of Montana, a congressman and also a delegate; Tovne of Minnesota, another member of congress who car ries no eemvention ereelontials, but came a free-lane" to forward the cause of the white metal, although his state delegation is pledged to gold; Bryan, the Nebraska I 'emocrat. one of the silver wheel horses of the last con gress, who stands very close to Hland. as virell as several sundry lesser lights. While turning a cool face to the in terviewer at this stage of their cam paign, the silver men inden'se the dec laration by Hartman. that "We want them to be right, or to be honest." which from the silver point of view bears the interpretation that the con vention is desired to make a 16 to 1 frep coinage plank or to adopt the sin ble gedd standard. Their early morn ing efforts were turned to the attempt eel conversion of several southern dele gates whose many predilctions shall bear an interrogation point. Mr. Tmvne doubts the ability of the Republicans to poll anything approach ing their normal majority in Minne sota on any platferm which does not do something for silver. The Fresident Goes Fishing.

The Rochester Democrat and Chroni cle dO'CS not believe there wall be much of a bolt by g-old standard Democrats. It quotes Senator Erice as savins' that gold Democrats would not bolt the Chi cago nomination should the silver men e-ain full centred, and that a third can didate in the field as the representative od the Democrats who favor the gold standard would not be much of a fig ure, unless the regular Democratic or ganizations in the sold states repudiat ed the work at Chicago and turned over their machinery to the third candidate. The Chronicle says further: Not even the president is mourning over the prospect of a silver triumph at Chicago, and the prospects of Demo cratic division are very small. So Democrats of til sections are get ting in line. Ranker Benedict, who has furnished the president with views for some lime, is inclined to resist; but the politicians are ready to join the silver P'rocession. Ean Francisco Call: Gold standard ites are quite riant. Fifty times more silver dollars have been coined since 1S73 than in the entire previous history of the country, but they forget to men tion the fact that the act demonetiz ing silver dollars continued them as dollars only upon the basis of their re demption in gold. It is nonsense,there fore, to say that the country is enjoy ing bimetallism to a greater degree than ever before. About $0,000,000 of the silver bullion purchase notes have already been redeemed in gold, and the balance outstanding can be presented for redemption in gold at any time their holders like. By the ruling of Secre tary Carlisle our silver dollars are mere promises to pay their face value in gold, and, therefore, nothing more nor les3 than token money. The people should not allow- themselves to be hoodwinked by the administration's cry that there is a "surncient abundancy"' of money. The country is squarely and fairly upon a gold basis, which makes the actual per capita money of the country not much over j. During1 Harrison's administration the annual interest on the public debt was decreased more than $10,0o0,000, while durinsr the present administration it has been increased more than $11,000,000. Thus do we progress backwards. The worst feature of all this is that as a result of the present financial policy the people are not nearly so able to pay it as they were before the decline in the p'rice of commodities which has re. suited from the establishment of the gold standard. Hard times are the priee the Ameri can voter pays for his ignorance of fin ancial and ecoiiontic questions. He won't study the matter, and scheming men who do study it, plunder him, throw him out of work, ruin his busi ness and make him a pauper. Isn't it in one sense a just punishment for t!"e voter who wiil not inform himself? An American citizen who hasn't energy enough to study these questions and act on them in an intelligent manner ran not expect any better treatmeilt than he gets. It is maintained by the gold men that the only reason silver and paper circu lates at par is because it is redeemable in gold. The only way to prove this would be to repeal the learal tender part of the law relating to those forms of currency. This would show them up in their true light of supporters of fiat money. The silver men wish to squeeze the fiat out of silver and make a silver dollar worth a dollar in fact. After all, perhaps the silver Republi cans who are talking are not so danger ous to the success of the party as those who are not talking. There are mil ions of them and their silence is omi noius. It is equivalent to saying to the politicians: go on and fix this thing up and if it doesn't suit us then we will see what we wall do about it. The increase in the Interest charges on the public debt, resulting from the bond issuing policy of Mr. Cleveland amounts to over $11. 00", 000 p-er annum. Yet the Republican house refused to pass the Duller bill depriving the presi dent of the power to issue more bonds without express authority from con gress. Ferhaps the next time the Republi cans cf Kansas meet in state conven tion they will declare in favor of some policy. The experience they are now passing through of having Cy Leland publish it to the world that Kansas is a goidbug state should teach a lesson. While the proposition of Mr. Payne of Wisconsin to change the basis of representation from the congressional delegation to the Republican vote seems to have merit, it would probably in crease a sectional feeling" which occa sionally crops out even now. From the way the gold is going out of the treasury it looks as though Wall street had already inaugurated its threatened object lesson which is to culminate in paralyzing the industries of the country if the street la not al lowed its way. Boss Piatt tried walking out 0 an organized body once before when he left the United States senate in the wake of Roscoe Conkling. About as lit tie attention was paid to him then as will be now if he should execute his threat to leave the St. Douis convention. !G mim SCHOOL 1 I The 3Ioster Convention Soon to Ee Held in Boston. DELEGATES FllO ALL AMERICA They Will Represent 140,000 Sekools and 10,OCO,OGO Scholars and Teachers. Representatives of the 140,000 Sab bath schools of Korth America will gather at Boston on June 23 to attend the eighth international Sunday school convention. There will be 2,000 regu larly appointed delegates present, but they will be accompanied by so many friends and others interested in the work that the Hub will find itself called upon to entertain fully 10,000 persons. These delegates represent Sunday schools scattered all over the United States and the British provinces, with an aggregate membership of 10,000,000 scholars and teacliers. Big round num bers these are. But that is what these delegates talk about. You would learn, should you attend the convention, that the figures given are compiled from actual statistics which are gathered B. F. JACOBS. throttfrh the perfectly organized mnchin ery of the. International Sunday School association. You would learn, too, that they not only know just how raauy chil dren in the country attend Sabbath school, but how many children do not and you would hear plans discussed for bringi?!? in these outsiders. It is not staled whether those statistics are mado up along about Christmas time or dur ing the picnic season, when the Sunday school tide is at its highest, or during normal periods, but it is probable that the figures are conservative. Besides the international convention, which is a triennial gathering, this is air-o the thirtieth annual national con vention. The pcneral objects of the convention are to improve and enlarge the field of Sunday school work. The great ambition of the delegates is to hit upon some plan for gathering in the millions of children who for various reasons do net attend Sunday schools. The organization is wholly interdenomi national, and Baptists, Methodists and Presbyterians, as well as members of other churches, work in harmony to gether. The question of creeds is never brought up, and eo there are no clashes arising from this scarce. One cf the m;t interesting features of this association is ihe thoroughness with which it i.s organized. It is a great machine, exerting its power and influ ence in a most praiseworthy cause. The delegates come from every part of the continent. Pastors, teachers and officers of all Protestant evangelical Sunday schools are entitled to participate, but the oflicial delegates are chosen by the state territorial and provincial conven tions. The international executive commit tee is composed of 60 members, one from each of the states, territories and prov inces. The members are elected at the triennial conventions upon recommenda tion of the local annual conventions. They hold office for three years. During the interval bf tween the international conventions the executive committee meets annually to direct the work. Thi3 committee also has a subdivision, known as the central committee, which meets as often as called together by the chair man. The work is divided into two parts the work of ingathering and the work of upbuilding or the increase and the improvement of the Sunday schools. This work is conducted by means of conventions and institutes, with two great auxiliaries, called "The Homo Class Department" and the "House to House Visitation. What the work of these two divisions consists of is indi cated by the titles they bear. When the international convention convenes and gets down to business ev ery tiling will be conducted according to D WIGHT L. MOODY. a prearranged plan. There will be no confusion and no changing of the pro gramme. Reports will be presented from every part of the field and the needs of the Sunday school will be considered in a bread w. The details are discussed in the state conventions and the still finer minute in the county and district conventions. To these smaller conven tions are sent Qualified workers, either paid or voluntary, who bring to the re mote or weaker Sunday schools a knowl edge of the best methods of working. They expound plans for the systematic visits to every home in the district and show how home classes may be formed. It is the object cf the general association to have this organization complete throughout the country and the question of how to obtain this is discussed at- the triennial conventions by men of wide experience. According to a recent report prepared by Chairman B. F. Jacobs of the execu tive committee, the work of organization is considered thorough in 16 states and provinces, good in 15 states and pro vinces and partial in 26 states, terri tories and provinces, while Alaska, Idaho and .Nevada are unorganized. Salaried workers to the number of 48 are employed but many more are needed. ''It is a startling statement, says Mr. Jacobs, "but 1,000,000 of the col ored children of this country are not in a school of any kind and one-half the children and youth of America do net attend Sunday school. To enable the executive committee to extend and im prove its work we ask $25,000 annually in special contributions." Another, and perhaps one cf the most interesting features of the organization, is the international Sunday school lesson committee and its work. It ia composed of 15 members, representing the larger denominations, who are elected for terms of six years each. A new committee will be chosen at the coming convention, which lends to it an unusual interest. This committee meets annually and selects the Sunday school lessons which are studied every Sabbath by millions of scholars. For each week in the year they select a certain number of verses from the Bible, which form the basis of the lesson, and give to each selection an appropriate title. To this is appended a text from another purt of the Bible, a pertinent passage, which is called the golden text. This material is first sub mitted to the whole committee and then given to the various publishers. When the lessou is printed in the various ways, it lias a wide distribution. It reaches the Sunday school scholar in a variety of forms. It may be handed cut by the teacher in the shape of a leaflet, cr it may come as a supplement to a re ligious or secular weekly. The com ments and explanations of the lesson are made by ministers employed by the dif ferent publishers to do the work. The lesson committee has arranged a course that will cover the Scriptures in Bix years. It is estimated that fully 20,000,000 copies of the international Sunday school lessou are used each Sabbath in various parts of the world. Of course they must be selected to meet a variety of demands, and the committee try to make them penrrally acceptable. To this end they give a hearing, before making their selections, to the various organizations, such as the Institute of Sacred Literature, the International Primary Teachers' union, the Americai Sunday School union, the .Lesson Writ- INTERIOR VIEW OF Tr.EMONT TEMPLE. er3' and Publishers' union and to de nominational societies. After the di verging views of these associations have been expressed the committeo consider their recommendations and give them as much satisfaction as possible. The se-'.sions of the international con vention will be held in the beautiful new Tremont temple, which was re cently dedicated, and in the Park Street church. Two sessions will be held each day for three days. Dwight L. Moody, the evangelist, will have charge of tiie opening services, and will also speak for 20 minutes each noon at the Park Street church. On the Sunday previous to the open ing of the convention all the pastors throughout the state and many in New England are to preach sermons or de liver s'.ddresses containing the story of the origin and work of the convention and of the plans for Sunday school work in the future. It is an interesting story too. The first national convention was held 64 years ago in Chatham street chapel, Now York. Only 220 delegates were present representing but 15 states in the Union. At the coming convention each one of the 45 states and all the territories will be represented. The Hon. Theodore Frelinghuysen of Kow Jersey was the first president. The iirst international convention was held 42 years later, in Mar, 1S75, at Baltimore. Rev. Dr. George A. Pelts, also of New Jersey, was chosen presi dent. From these two starting points the movement lias gone forward with increasing power and magnitude. The leading clergymen of all denominations have taken an interest in the work, and some of our most prominent public men have taught Bible classes in tha Sunday school. Chairman B. F. Jacobs, who has been in the movement for many years, and whose services have been largely instrumental in its growth and prosperity, is a Chicago business man. He is an indefatigable worker, and ha3 at his finger tips all the details of the big organization which he has helped to build. C. T. Baztek. Wide Tire Compulsory. The Bloomington (Els,) city council has adopted an ordinance making it compulsory for teamsters to provide their wagons with wide tires, as the hauling of heavy loads on carrow tires damages the brick paying. SCHOOL IS OUT Teachers IVill llepair to National Convention. the To be Held in Buffalo Early in July An Attendance of 20,000 is Ex pected. The annual session cf the National Educational association is to be held in Buffalo, beginning July S and closing July 11. It will be a great congress of educators, in which the 450,000 school teachers ia this country will be repre sented by at least 2O.C0O or their num ber. The practical results from this yearly gathering are beyond measure. Every schoolteacher who attends carries back to her work Eew ideas, new theories of instructioH and gains the etimulus to put some of them into operation. The convention is really a school for the teachers, wher the most advanced pre ceptors gather to excliange ideas which may be taken advantage of by the most hnmble teacher. The convention plat form is tha fornxa from which the com bined thought cf the best educators of the ags is announced and commented upon. It i3 not only a great gathering of teachers, but it is a well organized and carefully classified fc-edy which is sub divided in such a way that special as well as general work may be done. Each forenoon there will be a general meeting attended by all delegates in the large Buffalo Music hall, but in the afternoon there will be separate sessions cf the 15 or more various departments. It is in these departments that the special work is taken up. The superintendents of schools, for instance, are members of one department and they discuss at theii meetings subjects which would have no interest at all to the kindergarten 01 elementary teachers, who have their own department sessions at which mat ters with which they are -amiliar are talked about by men and women who have made their subjects the study of years. There are departments for teachers oi art, music, physical culture, natural science and other branches. Each de partment has two sessions a week, sc that 011 the other days the teachers may attend the meetings of other depart ments than their own in which they may happen to be interested. For three days before the meeting oi the convention the national council, V -7 .'J Y PRESIDENT NEWTON C. DOrGIIERTT. which is the executive body of the asso ciation, will hold meetings at which the routine business msy be cleared up. It is composed of the president, vice presi dent, secretary, treasurer and the chair man of the board of trustees. The presi dent of the association is Newton C. Dougherty. He is the superintendent oi schools at Peoria, Ills. Ke is a native oi Philadelphia and was graduated from the high school cf that city. In 18Gb, when ho was 21 years of age, he moved to Illinois and became principal of the schools of Morris. He w as afterward foi five years principal of the Rocky Hill seminary and then went to Peoria to as sume the position which he now occu pies. The first vice president, Prcfessoi Nicholas Hurray Butler, is one of tir best known of eastern educators, thcugl but 84 years old. He was educated a Columbia- university and studied at nni versifies in Berlin and Paris. In 18?', he organized the New York College fo: the Training of Teachers and a yea; later Vcame professor of philosophy anc education at Columbia and since 180( he has been the dean of that university. He is tiie editor of The University Re view and has written extensively on ed ucational subjects. Irwin Shepard, the secretary, is the president of the State Normal school at Winona, Minn., which position he bar held since 1S79. He is a native of New York state and a graduate of Mourn Olivet college, Michigan. The treasurer, I. C. McNeill, lives in Kansas City, where he has been assist ant superintendent cf schools since 1S90. The schoolteachers who will attend this convention wiil come from every state in the Union. Somo will conu from districts where the leg school house is still in use and others from the large cities where elaborately equip ped structures offer every advantage to the conscientious teacher for study and advancement. A large number of col lege professors and university presidents will attend and will contribute to the general interest cf the sessions by read ing essays or delivering addresses on educational topios. As soon as the con vention is over the thousands of school teachers will scatter to various parts cf the country to en joy the remainder c their vacation. Oi course the most of them will visit Niagara falls during their stay in Buffalo, but when they leave they will go to the seashore and mountain resorts in large parties. This is one of the features of ths convention, which makes its sessions so popular and attracts so many thousands of school teachers every year. AKKETT3 CRA.WF&&Z.

TOPEKA STATE JOURNAL, MONDAY EVENING, JUNE 15, 1S96. As tlie People 3I.ake it a General Holiday "Jcurnar'Eeporters Instructed To Treat it As Such. AU About the Sells-Eorepaugh Show and JZow a Vast Enterprise Lika That, is Conducted. Several years ago -when one spring morning amid the toot of whistles and the clang- of bells the collossal combin ed Marcus Aurelius Cat?ar Bros'. Ehoiva pulled into Rome and headed for the fair grounds, when the Ware of the trumpets announced the grand entree and Rome scrambled to her seven hills to look over the sidewalls arid dodge the tk-ket man, when the small boys envied the reporter of the Rome Con gressional Record because he got to see the animals? before the show open ed, up to the time that Nero kept his orchestra playing during the holocaust the world was seeing- the establishment of a isreeedeiit. And it was a precedent that has not yet run it- day cvt-n to the present time Yvhen another Marcus Aurelius of the name of Hanna is running things and playing to big- business at St. Louis. The little boys continue to get up early In the mornings or sit up all Tiight before just as they did when the first circus train arrived at the depot of the Ca r t hace. Home and Mediteranean railroad and the covt-red chariots were run off the. ears amid the gaping crowd. And the entire demonstration was re peated yesterday morning when the Adam Forepaugh Sells Bros', shows arived over the Missouri Paciile from Sal sna. There were four trains, long- ones, and all of them w. re transferred to the Santa Fe tracks and unloaded at KSghth street. At least l,r,G0 people saw the opera tion and they were not. all small boys either. '1 iiere were men and women there and psentv ot triem. numbers in carnages and from ad vaiKs ot luee 1 ne camera fiend was tnere and so was tne small bov who maoe a noise entires" out ot proportion to his size. hven mvaii'ts were there.

Tnere was a cr.wd 01 men and ir, t r i "1 i I ii i um ber ot tnem scrambled onto the train when triev learned that the unloading would be done seven blocks north and roi.se mere. The unloading of the horses was a slm.ple matter. The side doors of the cars were opened, a gang pla.nk let clown to the ground end the horses, used to it from long- practice, walked out easily, in most cases at a simple word. Tiie three trains that followed car ried the wagons and vans. At the rear of each train were three or four coaches that were used as sleeping cars by the performers and workingnien. The first train arrived at 10 o'clock and it was 1 o'clock before the last car vv as unloaded. Un top of many of the vans were men asleep, tent hands undoubtedly, and many not overly clean, but troubled with no conscience, probably, for they s!"pt soundly enough amid the shouts of the spectators and trainmen, the jar ir.g and jerking of the engines, and be neath the scorching- radiance of the sun The unloading of the heavy vans was a simple matter also after one had s en it done. The vans and wagons were on fiat cars, their wheels blocked ami the tomrues removed and put beneath. Tile coaches that terminated the train were uncoupled and pulled away from the rest of the train. A bier iron gargway was laid from the end of the last car to the ground. Men put the t ensue in the wagon first all the wasrons "ride" backwards and a team of horses on the ground at the side of the cars were hitched to the wagons by a long rope. They pulsed the car abns until it reached the incline which it run down itself guided by two men at the tongue. To prevent accidents it is held back and its speed regulated by a long rope that is attached to a big iron spool at th side of the last car. By the time the last wag-on is un loaded it has a long roadway over the ten or twelve cars that is made con tinuous by aprons of heavy iron laid from car to car. Two train loads making- 6A wagons were unloaded in this way and a train load of 30 animal vans was unloaded also. Men with teams with from two to ten horses were ready to haul the wagons and vans and floats and band wagons and chariots to the fair grounds. It was all done methodically and sys tematically, every mi and every horse knew his place and kept it. There was no confusion, no ill nature and very little shouting. So much for sys tem. The same number of Inexperi enced unorganized men would have besn unloading yet and done much dam age. The main interest was centered in the expected unloading of the elephants Mi in this the crowd was fooled. The 13 elephants, eight camels and other animals of similar sort not In vans were unloaded at Fifteenth lE-rr.tst cf all in Leavening Power. i t j p i street and very few saw them. The elephants were shipped in three big cars like box cars, five in a car. They, toes, walked out on gang planks as the horses did ami proceeded in pairs to the fair grounds, followed by a crowd of boys whom even a circus man couldn't hoodwink. While the cars were being pushed about the yards hundreds of boys, col. ored and white, jumped on and off the rapidly moving cars and It is a great wonder no one was killed or badly hurt. PUTTING UP THE TEXTS. Ilea That Work With All the Precis ion of Machinery. The circus trains had hardly stopped at Fifteenth street yesterday morning than a, large number of overhauled and dirty shifted men jumped oif the cars and" began enquiring for the show lot. bach carried on his shoulder a bun dle of long iron rods, sharpened at one end, with rings and red rags at the other. When the direction of the fair grounds was given them they gave another hitch to their suspenders and went aiong with merry song and jest. They were the surveying gang or en gineer's corps and it was their duty to locate the different tents, and stake oif the grounds with their iron stakes so that when the wagons and tent hands arrived from the trains they could go immediately to work. Everything took longer yesterday be cause it was Sunday and the men took time. The spectators to the work of the tent hands marvelled at the rapidity of their work. "Usually the same work must be done in half the time. When the tent hands arrived they knew at a glance where each tent was to be erected. The first to go up were the stables and dining and cooking tents. There were eight long stable tents with two rows of horses in each, the circus car ries its own harness and blacksmith shops and these tents were put up also. The dressing and sideshow tents was easy. It is the putting up of the big tents, the animal and circus tents, that is wot th seeing. At the menagerie tent gangs of men run to dig the holes for the six center poles, and gangs with sledge hammers go around to drive the tent, stakes. These stakes are six feet long perhaps, with iron rings about their heads. It takes a very little time to drive one since from four to eight men constitute a gang. Kvery boy and almost everyone that evt-r was a boy has seen it done. The men stand about the stake after it has been started, each with a heavy sledge hammer in his hands which he swings at arms" length. They strike in rotation so rapidly that the heavy ham nit-r heads fall on the stake in a steady patter until itds deep eunuch. The center poles are then laid out. each with its base at the hole intended for it. The guy ropes ate arranged and the poles are lifted and straightened by the guys. The canvas itself is rolled from the wagons in big balls as big as snow balls. Each is one section of the tent roof. When it was rolled the night before, it was doubled three times and rolled to a corner and tied into a ball. It is an easy matter then to unroll all the can vas until the edges meeting from the "top." us the roof is called. The sections are then laced together, men take the pulley ropes and up the t-.p goes to the height of the poles in the center and dapping at the sides. It doesn't flap long, however, till the side poles are pushed up are! tied, and the tent is ready for the side wall. The side wall is the canvas that goes around the sides of the tent. It is laid out on the ground in a string and raised by means of the ropes that afterward hold it in place. VITH THE HEAD ANIMAL MAN Some of the Wild Beasts Are None Too Gentle. William Chambers is the head ani mal man of the Sells-Forepaugh show, lie has charge of all the animals and knows the names of all of them from the tiniest bird to the largest elephant. Mr. Chambers has a resolute face and his hands are seamed witn deep scars. "A lion gave me those," said lie in re sponse to an inquiry. "I put my hand on the bottom of a cage and he took hold of it. I have never had any very exciting experiences, though I have seen sume poor fellows torn to pieces by tigers and lions. "It has been a great many years since I started in this business," con tinued the animal man. "and of course I like it. I uo nothing else and I have been with Sells' show for the past five ye;; rs. 'When I started in the business I bandied elephants only, but I have handled about all the different kinds of animals on earth since then. I Pke the elephants best because I got accus tomed to them first. "Here is a. lion I raised myself ."walk ing toward a cage containing three lion cutis, nearly full grown. "lie is f ear yens old. Hello. Xero. old boy." sjid the big man. affectionately patting the beast's head. Xero put one of his big paws through the bars and turned his head in intense satis--f action. Mr. Cham bers took hold of the beast's foot and pushim: by the hair revealed set of dangerous looking claws. "This f has nevr been whipped. It would not go well with man who went into the en ae and tried to whip him. lie would not stand it. "I use different methods with differ ent animals. T have to keep most of the animals afraid of me. Here is a mean ore." said Superintendent Cham-b.e'-s walkireer up to another cassce. "Here Prince." he shouted firmly. The oissr beast sprang to his feet, his long teeth showing and sprang aurainst the bars with terrific force. "Now watch him cower," Mr. Chambers picked up a long bar with two sharp prunes on one end. He shoved the bar through into the cage and the ferocious beast crouched in Iramble submission. "Xow get up." called the superintendent and the lion reared on his hind legs and nlaced liis paws on the side of the cage r, ear the top. Mr. Chambers led the way- from cage to cage and it was plain to be seen that be is complete master of the situation. He patt d a cowardly hyena on the head and the animal crouched on the floor. "They are the greatest cowards in the world." said he, "but they are also very treacherous. If one jumps on you the whole gang follows suit and a man wauld stand a poor show for his life. "Here are the Bengal tigers we got in Australia. They were as quiet as they could be for a time and one day Latest U. S. Gov't Report J f j f sr. V. wi V i iJt lf I""'.- dow-n in Kentucky they attacked the head animal man who was riding with them and before they could be beaten off they had injured him so he died. Since then they tore off a man's arm and only a day or two ago they dug a man in the backs who was standingr.ear their cage. "These two black tigers once escaped from their cage down here in a railroad wreck and we recaptured both of them. We shot a limb out from under one and as he came to the ground he jump ed on a man called Texas Jack. The man went dow-n but he threw up his arm and it happened to go down the tiger's throat. It went down so far that the animal could not bite him and we secured him by pinning him dow-n with stakes. The other one was cap tured the same day in a corn shock after he had been having a terriffic fight with a bull dog. "I suppose I will always handle ani mals. I spend a.l rny time with them and would feel lost any place else." The animals, and there are a host of them, all present a sleek, well-fed appearance. A TALK WITH MR. SELES. Some of the 3Tir.ar.cial JsVIysteries of a Very Big Show. Mr.Ephraim Sells is the big man with the show. He is not big physically, but when he speaks his word is law-. There is probably no man in the show business who so thoroughly under stands handling men as Mr. Sells. He is everywhere. When a piece of canvas is to be spread he is on the ground and he is not long in detecting a laborer who shirks his duty. He gives out in structions about the animals and keeps his eye on the performers. Mr. Sells has general oversight over all the details but unless something goes wrong he does not spend much time with any particular thing. He knows the names of all the elephants and takes great pride in the animals, the performing hippotami" being his special favorites, probably because they are worth more than any of the other animals in the menagerie. Mr. Sells is quite democratic in his manners. He eats his meals in the performers' tent and sees that no one goes hungry. Twenty-five years in the show business has given Mr. Sells a brusqueness, which seems to be a nec essary adjunct of the managerial pro fession. "This has not been a very good year for us," said the veteran showman to a Journal reporter, "but I do not com plain because I know how hard money comes. Our tour in Kansas has not been as successful as it might have been but I am not surprised. The sur prising thing to me is that Kansas peo ple are in as good shape as they are. "Kansas is made up of people who came west to make homes. They are the best class of people on earth, but about the first thing they ran against was the mortgage shark, and I believe Kansas is cursed with worse men of that class than any place. Some of your bankers belong to that class, too. Well, the farmer has been working for the mortgage shark ever since he came to Kansas. He raises a crop of corn, sells it and turns the proceeds over to the man who holds his mortgage. Then this state has not had a first class crop year for five years. All these things help to make the people hard up. "We have made our show bigger and better than ever, but the people have not the money and that is all there is to it. We have taken $2.;100 a day since we have been in Kansas, and that seems like a lot of money, but it takes S2.5U0 a day to run this show, and you see we have not a great deal left. "An ordinary man who visits this show or any big show has no idea about the magnitude of the affair and what it costs. That menagerie repre sents quite a fortune. I was offered $4, oOO for the rhinoceros before we left Xew York, and the elephants are worth from $1,500 to ?,,.(W0. A low price for the pair of hippopotami would be $50, 000, so that you can see that there is a pile of money tied up there. Then the tents cost .noj." Mr. Sells and the reporter were stand ing near the horse tents while he was talking, and the conversation was in terrupted by the sound of some one whipping a horse. "Here, there!" shouted Mr. Sells in his loudest voice, "what is the matter there?" "This horse is being whipped for kicking," shouted hack the stable man. "Is it Tom?" called back Mr. Sells. "No, it is Mac." the man answered. This apparently satisfied the proprie tor, but the beating of the horse was not resumed. Mr. Sells places the value of the show this year at $250. OoO. "But." he said "there is no sale for this kind of a tiling. There are probably four or five big shows in the country who might use our stuff, but outside of that there is very little sale for any of it. I have to stay in the business because I can not let go. even if I wanted to. The roan who has money does not want this business, and he would go broke in two we ks, anyhow. "Ton have no idea how- riartiotdar we ha.ve to be. We keep an inventory of everything belonging to the show and we know it when a cot is missing or anything else, no matter how small. "In the matter of tickets given to storekeepers for put tine lithographs up in their windows we k"t p close tab. Tne sirst set of bill piosters r-nnv1 around and ma!-" a contract with the store keeper by which the merchant is to keep the lithographs in the window un til the show comes. "Foiii.-timos it happens that th man tears down the lithograph after he has his ticket and the advance people leave. In a week or two another set comes around and they inspect all the litho graphs. Kvery v.-imlow is numbered and when a lithograph is missing a note is made of it and the number is kent for reference. The merchant has a ticket with a numher eorresoonding and it is placed on the 'no eood list." "This list is tabulated and a. man sits near the ticket taker with the b'st. When a lithograph ticket is presented it is referred, to the man with the list and he reports whether good or rot. Jf he finds the man has torn down his lithographs the ticket is refused. Some times they raise a great fuss about it. but then we take out their contract and show it to them. Often they threaten to sue us. but they never do. "It costs more to show in a big town than in a small place, because it c:i;ts much more to bill a big place. Show bills cost from four and a half to seven cents a sheet, while the lithographs cost from five to nine. Then a great many more bill boards have to be put tin in a large place, and there are a great many more papers we have to use for advertising. It costs us 51.000 more to show in Kansas City than in Topeka. "I have been in the show business twenty-five years and I do not know when I will get out, perhaps never." said Mr. Sells meditatively, as the re porter left him. YOUNG ALLEN SELLS. A Nephew of Our Late Lamented Townsmen Manages the Show. Toung Alien Sells, who was named after the well known Topeka Allen, is manager of the Sells-Forepaugh show, lie is a son of Ephriam Sells and a very nice fellow. This last might be said of everyone connected with the Seils-Forepaugh show. 'Isn't it a sretty hard matter," a Journal reporter asked' him. "too keep a big show like this clear of thieves and f oilowers "Xot so hard as you might think," said Mr. Sells. "You see, we take care to have honest loyal men at the heed of every department. They have two or' three assistants each, and it is a pretty hard matter for anyone do any pilfering or stealing under their eyes. If an employe is caught at anything like that lie is immediately turned over to the authorities. "Of course We can't keep anyone out of the same town the show is in, but we can keep them away from the show grounds. "A more effective way to keep crooks away, however, than to arrest them is to whip them. Those fellows had rather lie in jail than be marked in any way. It doesn't take much of a mark to serve for identification in future, you know. "I chased one fellow, a pickpocket, off the grounds in a Michigan town last year and that very evening saw him again in the crowd at the ticket wagon. He had a loaded cane in his hand and I went out and snatched it out of his hand and hit him in the forehead with it. It not only nearly killed him, but marked him so that he will be put at a disadvantage in do ing crooked work for the rest of his life. "It was a lesson to others, too, -r.d we were singularly free for some time after that. "A man may come into a circus crowd and operate for two or three days with out getting caught, but we soon learn his face and off he goes. "I remember one year we were at Hutchinson and a pickpocket under took to go through a woman's pockets. She was a lag woman and had nerve, and what did she do? Did she faint? No. She grabbed the fellow- by the hand that was in her pocket and held it there, yelling at the top of her voice. He got five years. I think." WONDERFUL ELEPHANTS. Joseph Beatty. Their Trainer Talks About Them. Joseph Beatty, a little fellow with a firm chin and gray eyes has charge of the herd of elephants with the Sells Forepaugh show. Only a week ago he narrowly escaped with his life in Kan sas City. Dick, a big elephant who was not considered vicious, attacked him and had it not been for the agility of the trainer would have finished him in short order. "Dick is not a bad fellow," said Mr. Beatty in an apologetic tone. "But all male elephants have spells when they are dangerous. I got this about three months ago" and air. Beatty pushed back his hat and revealed a fright! al scar on the side of his head. Topsy threw me against a wall. I have not had much trouble. An elephant is easy to handle as long as lie behaves himself. When he gets ugly he is mighty hard to manage. "This is John L. Sullivan that used to box. He was also a clown elephant but we have dropped all that. He is the only talking elephant in the world and is one of the most intelligent I ever had anything to do with. The big one next to him is Vic and she is as jealous of him as she can be." Mr. Beatty went up to John and took hold of his trunk. Vic rattled her chains dangerously. "John, are you hap py?" questioned the trainer. The elephant gave a squeak w-hich the trainer interpreted as meaning yes. "Vic is very hard to matiage," con tinued Mr. Beatty. "In going through the country if she sees a cow she will start out and catch it. She hugs it up and lets it go. She will do the same thing with a pig or a horse. If she sees any one hurt a camel, it makes her al most crazy. She has a special fondness for camels and she would make short work of a man who was whipping a camel if she got hold of him. She won't allow any thing to be hurt if she can help it. "We have only two of the African el ephants. They are wild and difficult to teach and are altogether very unsatis factory. An elephant is easy to train as long as they do not think you are making them work. As soon as they think that they usually get balky. "I have handled elephants five years with this show and like the work. We work with them the year around." COOKING AND EATING, How It is Carried on At the Circus Grounds. The cooking and eating departments with a show like the one that is here today are no small affair. There are two big kitchens and two big dining tents. They- have only tops and no side walls, and though all tl e cooking is done and the food is served almost on the prairie, one might say, everything about it appears to be clean and wholesome. In one tent the performers, the candy men and the managers' departments eat. Here it is that the women eat. At one end of the tent is the table at vehich the proprietors and the executive staff have their meals. They are waited on by eighteen col ored waiters in white suits and aprons and caps. The tables after they are laid look like banquet tables. Oood food is served. This tent has six cooks and several pan washers. The other dining room, in which the workit.gmen eat, is of about the same proportions, though the tables do not Ipok quite so nice. The food bill is enormous. When eggs are served it takes sfMG dozens and the pans they are fried in over fires in dug trenches are about four feet lng by two feet wide. The cooking is done on an immense scale. When steak is used it takes 250 pounds. Four bushels of potatoes are consumed at a siimle meal; 70 loaves of bread are used ,20 pounds of coffee. SO pies, C60 pounds of roast, 2 bushels of beans. 6 gallons of milk and about 20 pounds of butter. At supper last evening fried chicken was served in the performers' dining room and it took 4S. GETS IN THE PAPER. P. D. Sullivan is Fixed for the Anti Concert Jokers. F. D. Sullivan is a very pleasant young man who is with the show fiom choice. His father is a millionaire in Columbus. He has charge of the re served seats and concerts. "I am lixed for this town," said Mr. Sullivan. "We have cards printed and put them up when we get to a place where we can not announce the concerts. I understand that the peo ple here do not allow the announcement of concerts and when we get to a place of this kind we do not try it. "However, we have a good concert. I think it is the best on the road. It is a departure from the old form of con certs and I think we are entitled to at least a chance to show the people what we have." THE FAMOUS SELLS EROTHFltS Lewis and Ephraim With the Show and Peter in Chicago. There are three of the Sells brothers and thev have been associated in the show business for the past quarter of a century. Alien Sells used to be asso ciated with his brothers, but he with drew from the partnership several years before he died. Lewis and Ephraim are with the show, and Peter Sells is in Chicago now. He looks after the advance busi ness. The brothers are ail pleasant gen tlemen and they like Topeka. Topeka people have some claim on them, and tney might be called at least brothers-in-law to Topeka, for they own a great deal of property here. Allen Sells is the son of Ephraim. He was named for his uncle. He has been in the show- business almost all his life, and is known as the general superin tendent. If there is anything about the show business that these gentlemen do not know, it is because it is something that is not yet disc-ovored. They know their business and they have tact enough to know that it is best to make friends of every one they meet. The Sells brothers control the great est show traveling, and they try each year to aad new features and make their entertainment better. They keep pace with the progress of the world. Cleverest One of All the Agents. The press agent of the show is Mr. James D. De Wolfe, who is one of the youngest men in the business, and the Journal is willing to say the best. He looks after the comfort of representa tives of the newspapers. "Now plepse don't say, 'Book out for pickpockets.' We have officers of our own and do our best to keep away all suspicious characters. We are trying to make our show as clean as possible and no thugs follow us if we can help it." SANTA FE EMPLOYES. A Little Itlore Information on the Watch Controversy. From an article published in the State Journal June 11, headed "Inspec tor Montgomery's reply to C. H. Mor rison's circular, we quote the follow ing:" He (Morrison) quotes the Cres cent Street at $18.00, my price is $16.00, also "Kegarding the New Sanat Fe them at any price. In buying the New Standard Watch Morrison can't get Standard Watch you are protected," "and my price is right, viz $31.50." To prove that the Crescent Street movement and the Santa Fe Route movement are identical except in name, I submit the following commu nication from the general agents of the American Waltham Watch com pany, manufacturers of the watch in question. Bobbins Appleton, Agents. American Waltham. Watch Co., Walt ham, Mass. Chicago, June 11, '96. C. H. Morrison, Topeka, Kan.: Dear Sir: Replying to yours of the 10th would say that the special "'Santa Fe" movements that we are now deliv ering, are "Cresent Street" grade at $20 list. Yours trulv, BOBBINS APPLETON. If the General Inspector sells the Cresent Street for $16 and for the same watch marked "Santa Fe Route" asks $31.50. there is a net profit of Fifteen Dolla.rs and fifty- cents on each watch sold for change of name or for "protec tion." This multiplied by one thousand, the probable number of conductors and engineers required to buy new watches within 60 days if the order is enforced, would be $15,500. A nice little sum ex tracted from the employes for carry ing a piece of paper, from an author ized inspector, stating what they al ready know. That their watch is all O. K., engi neers and conductors are continually looking at their watches, comparing them with other time pieces and are better judges than any other class of men of a fine watch. Their position and their lives as well as the lives of others depends largely upon the relia bility of the watch they carry-, that this class of men should be required to have their w-atches passed upon by a jeweler every thirty days is, in my estimation, simply an insult. I consider the watch inspecting system, however managed, a corporation fraud. It is a bad system that gives one man the power to condemn at any time any of the 1.500 watches carried by these men and that man a dealer in watches. Several jewel watches were likely adopted because not in general use. I will guarantee there is not a watch factory in the United States that will contend that a IT jewel watch will keep better time or give better satisfaction than a 15 jewel. The two extra jewels are placed too far back in the train of wheels to govern the time. A 21 jewel watch would have given the men some compensation for the money expended as the four extra jewels are placed at the most, sensitive points of the watch and at the onlyr parts where they could affect the time keeping qualities. An engineer who carries a 15 jewel watch writes me thus: "I will bet my watch against 25 cents that it will not vary seven seconds a week, and yet I must buy a 17 jewel watch." He says ,,AU things are fair in war." We shall see. C. H. MORRISON. SUNDAY SUN IS DEAD. The Vile Sheet That Was Kansas City's Joy Played Out Kansas City, June 15. The Kansas City Sunday Sun is dead. Innumer able lawsuits and jail sentences, to gether with fear of personal violence, finally worried the scamp who ran the sheet into giving up his avocation. The Sun, first issued in this city Sun day. February 2?., l.yjo, from the old Kellogg publishing estabiishm-erit. Fourth and Broadway, was a f o w months over six years old when it gave up the ghost in the Nelson building, Maine and Missouri avenue. Jure 7. That was the last date of the Sun and the Sunday News, the latter issued as a quasi substitute, but the final gasp was heard two days pre-iously, when a pa per, in some respects remarks-tble and in others reprehensible, ended a career as notorious as that achieved by cny other journal in this country in the same length of time. The Sun was a financial success be cause Kansas City people liked it. So many of the besmirched rejoiced in see ing their neighbors besmirched. Thous ands of peopde in Kansas City were not ashamed to be seen reading this organ of the disorderly houses and saloons. On the street cars it was openly ped dled and read by men and women alike. It went into many families and the children devoured it. No determ'ned effort was ever made by public officers in Kansas City to suppress it. With a weak and demoralized public senti ment it thrived as many other vile things in Kansas City thrive. But it is dead. Preston, its editor, left for St. Louis last w-eek. He will report the conven tion for the New York Voice. This must be entertaining to the high moral readers of the Voice. Dr. A. P.

HEASD AND OVERHEARD. Facts and Fancies Jotted Down in the Daily Notebook. "Another visiting girl. and. oh dear, such a pretty one, too." sighed a To peka girl the other day. But sh.t did not mean the sigh, because it would take a rogincmt of pretty girls to affect her j-oOalarity. A Topeka man who is said to wish to pose as engaged has tried to establish tiie coveted reputation by calling live times in succession upon one young lady. 'i'he most recently talked of engage ment, is that of a young lady who is quite popular in society, to a gentle man who seldom goes to any social f unctiem. "Aren't you even afraid of burglars or mice?" asked a Topeka woman of Mrs. Stetson at the reception. "Xo," was the reply. "I am so glad I met you, then." A woman who overheard tiie conversation claimed to be just as brave as the lecturer herself.

Living; in one of the prandest and most nip.guineeift palaces in Brussels is a girl of 14 who is without doubt the richest heiress in the whole wide world. Her name is Lncienne Premelic Hixscli, and she is the granddaughter, legiti mate or otherwise, of the late Earon de Hirsch. In the course of a few years she. will come into possession of the almost incalculable sum of 130, 000, 000. It was not until the baron's will had been made public that the very exist- MISS LfCIEXyE HIRSCH. ence of this young girl who is to become a multimillionairess was generally known. It was one of the skeletons in the closet that was dragged forth to the light when the rich old baron had gone the way of all flesh. The story will recall to Parisians young Lucien de Hirsch, the baron's only son, who died about nine years ago. Fifteen years or more ago the Hir.sches lived in a palace that had formerly been the home of Empress Eugenie. Lucien was then 24 years of age, and like his father, who was not at that time so rioted for his philan thropy as later, he was a man of fash ion, the owner of a racing stud, a mem ber of many clubs, and the possessor of all that a- rich and gay young man might desire. There came to the De Hirsch palace one day a tall and strik ingly beautiful young woman. Her name was .Mile. Premelic, and she had been employed as a governess. She came of an old and aristocratic family whose estates had teen swept away in tho wars. She was just the age of Lucien, highly educated and remarkably fascin ating as well as intelligent. It is not surprising, therefore, that Lucien, from regarding her as merely a part of the domestic machinery, eventually fell in love with her. Some say there was a clandestine marriage, and others say there was not. At any rate, Mile. Premelic left the palace and took up her residence in an other part of Paris, where in ISSfi a baby was born to her. This was Lu cienne, named after her father. When the little girl was 5 years old, her father died, and from that time on Baron do Hirsch made liberal provision for the support cf his son's wife and child. But tho baron had conceived a violent dis like for Mile. Premelic and decided that his little granddaughter, who is referred to in his will as his "adopted daughter," should be brought up away from the influence cf her mother. The ex-governess at first refused to part from her child, but at length consented after be ing promised that the girl should be brought up a Catholic rather than a Hebrew. So now the daughter of a French woman whose family was in moderate circumstances is to become the world's richest heiress. She is being very care fully educated and is being fitted to control the vast wealth that will some day be hers. In the will of Baron de Hirsch, Lucienne was left the sum of f 000,000 directly, and the bulk of his fortune, which after all other legacies have been paid will amount to fully 130, 000,000, is to beheld by the baron ess in trust for her. If Lucienne shows y'."fr, 111. .7' C ,i. i, Ml ti 1 v U- -Mir J -i-- t f V 1 i 'i EMMA KOKTII LOCK ETT. that she is developing into a strong and sensible woman, .she will receive the fortune when the comes of fige; other wise it will be withheld until the death of the baroness. Another young woman who has re cently received a vast stun of money is the daughter of the late Colonel North, the "Nitrate King." Emma North Lockett her name is now, for she was married fotir years ago to George Alex ander Lockett of Liverpool. The mar rie was one of the showiest ever seen itt England. The bride and her nine bridesmaids fairly glittered with a daz yt:g display of diamonds and pearls, itud rte nobility- who were pesexit were deeply impressed.

Something About the Famous "Baritony and 2ia Views on Standard Opera. Xo special introduction is needed for Mr. William T. Carlelcn. He is one of the best baritones on the operatic st-age, and his popularity is eo-ontousiy e with his ability. His success is due to his fine voice, his line stage i-.re-er.ee and his .artistic methods. Ke made his debut when he was 1 years of age r.t the Gaiety i heater in London Vrhen it was under tho niaiiageuient of John Holling-thcad. Charles Sactley was the first baritone of the company, and Carleton v.-.as engaged f r roies usuully as signed to the wwud burl' inc. He remain ed with Heliiugsbe.id from 1870 to IfcTij, making several proviuci.il t-or.rs with tiie company dnri: g that ti:-e. p is iirst ex perience in grand o: era was in Sertrrnhcr. 1871, when he saaic ix'.i Sims i! eves in "Lucia" at the Theater Royal in Birming ham. Mr. Carleton 's first appearance in A mer lea was iu September, 1673. He came to WILLIAM T. CARLKTON". this country under au engagement to sinj; leading baritone roles with the Kellog;: English Opera company and remaintc with that combination live years. Their repertory was quite extensive, in eluding "The Talisman," "Aida.," "Mi gon," Marriage of Figaro," "Don Gk vanni," "Ernani," "Troratore." "Lucia," "Faust" and many other standard operas. The part of the original Flying Dutch man was created by him at the Academy of Music, in New York, in 187.3. He also originated the roles of Amonasro in "Aida," the Toreador in "Carmen," Cceur de Lion in '-'Che Talisman" and Peter in "The Star of the North" when these operas were first, produced on tiie English stage. The Kellogg company's performances drew so well that the less successful attractions kept out of the way. After finishing his engagement with the Kellogg company Mr. Carleton went to London to slnsr at Her Majesty's the ater in Italian and English under the man agement of Colonel Mapleson. After that he relumed, to America under engagement to sing in English and Italian opera- under the management cf Max Sgrakosch. Marie Roze, Toi'riaai and other well known art ists were members of the same company. During that engagement Strakosch pro duced Loire's luepfc-tophele" for the lirst time in America. Tho SArakosch broth ers Max and Maurice were great im presarios. There never were finer operatic productions in this country than those given under the Strakosoh regime at the Academy of Music from 1S73 to It-75. Tiie productions of "Lohengrin," "Aida" and other operas were simply magnificent, the company comprising the very finest singers of the day, such as Christine Nilsson, Mau rel. Cat. ij auini, Capoul and others all in their prime. In speaking of his abandonment of grand opera in favor of comic opera, Sir. Carleton said recently I became associated with comic opera because 1 foresaw the turn of the musical tido in the public taste. Grand opera wits giving way to a demand for light opera. The "Pinafore" fever started trie Itrtll roil ing, and after the Gilbert and Sullivan craze had set in legitimate opera Lad no possible chance. Tho odds against it were too heavy.

A Great Road Hace Bald's Victory Over Sanger Cycling on Foreign Tracks International Meet at Copenhagan. The cycling season has notv become sucn a solid and permanent thing that one can hardly believe that it was opened only a few weeks ago. Since the roads settled down to trustworthy compactness the real business of cycling has been taken up. Every day new records are made and old ones are broken. Every day hundreds of men and women and children graduate from the cycling schools and take to the turnpike. Great as the craze has been, it is all the time growing greater. There are several departments of the Bport, and all of them are booming. The racing contingent is at the topmost heisrht of its energy and ambition. Tho "cen tury" zealots are hard at work, tiie out ing clubs are careering about in gay groups, the staid folk who wheel for exercise roll diligently along by ones or twos, and the children, never tiring, come and go in all directions. The record breakers have commenced early this year, and the probabilities are that they will go on with their good work during tho whole summer. One of the first to make a notable cut on old figures was young Amos 13. Hughes of Denver. His feat of cutting down the two mile record to 3i56 3-5 has made his name famous all over the land. He is a modest young man and well deserves his laurels. He has been on the track only a little more than a year, and his development of speed has been little less than marvelous. He opened his bicycle career by riding a novice mile, competition, in 2:10 2-5, which was mighty close to the novice record. Later in the year he rode a mile nnpaced in 2:10 and at various race meets did some fast work. His improvement goes steadily on, and he will probably make it warm for many of the more pretentious cracks. The recent big road race at Millburn, N. J. was intensely exciting, and the out come was somewhat sensational as well. The disqualification of Hadiield on account of the allegation that he had been paced for a part of the way caused a good deal of comment and a vigorous protest on the part of Hadtield's friends. It seema a great pity that volunteer pacing cannot be elim inated from such contests. The record made by Monte Pcott of Providence (l:0S:2ii) was regarded as phe nomenal. It is said, furthermore, that he AMOS B. HUGHES, could have covered the 25 miles in much shorter time had he so desired, because he loafed over the first live miles. The defeat of danger by Eddie Bald ii Boston seemed to astonish a greet many wheelmen. The fact that Eddie was able to wrest the laurels from him in three dis tinct races was additional surprise. The performance took place at the A. C. O bicycle meet at Charles Kiver park, and 14,000 people witnessed it. It is said by Sanger's friends that over coniidence on danger's jiart was the cause of his defeat. When he fell in behind the bunch, he was content to keep out of a pocket and confident of getting into posi tion when it became necessary. But he overestimated his powers and postponed his sprinting until it was too late. Tho accomplishment of A. A. Chase in London was one which will be talked about a long time. Covering GO miles in 1:45:38 8-5 is not only a feat which no one else ever equaled, but it is a record that will remain untouched for a good many months and possibly years. The latest novelty in cycling is that adopted by the Volunteer Fire brigade of Kidgewood, a suburb of Brooklyn. This is a double tandem equipped with hose reel and other ayipurtenances. The cry of fire is a summons to mount the wheel, and as fasta.s. if not faster than, horses can run the cyclists ride to the flames, clanging their bicycle bells on the way and shouting for a clear track. In connection with the forthcoming in ternational championships at Copenhagen, in August, it is interesting to know that there are two tracks at Copenhagen, two more in the south of Sweden, about 20 miles from Copenhagen, and eight in the Banish country towns. Nearly all these are first class cement tracks. On all, as well as those in Gothenburg and Chris tiania, there will be races before and after the international championships at Copen hagen. Racers who go to Copenhagen may therefore have 20 racing days at least dur ing a period of about tliree weeks. The Derby Winner. Persiinmon, the colt that won the Berby for Queen Victoria's son, is a good one. He won last year two events tiie Coventry stal'es at Ascot ar.d the Richmond stakes ct Goodwood out of three starts. In Lis third race he was third to St. I'rusquin and Oinladina in the Middle Park Plate, the winner of which is generally the win ter favorite for the Derby. At that time Persimmon was coughing, and he was only started because he had been heavily backed by the public in the future betting. fie was hred by his owner, who purchased and raced his daiu, Perdita II, as a 2-yir-cld. She foaled two indiiserent coits to Barcaldine and then threw l-'lorizel II to St. Simon, who is thus a full brother to Persimmon. Florizel II has won a num ber cf good races for the Prince of Wales, in.cludLi.ii the iiitiicliester Cup last yeivT. DESPERATE DEED. A rian Enters a Leading New York Bank, Shoots the President, Sir. G. II. Wiekoff, THEX SHOOTS HIMSELF His Object Was Plunder, But lie Failed. He Demanded 86,000 of Presi dent Wiekoff. New Tork, June 15. A report has reached police headquarters that Presi dent G. H. Wiekoff of the Bank of Xew Amsterdam had been shot by a stran ger who entered the bank and after shooting Mr. Wiekoff, shot himself. The injury to Mr. Wickon" is not known. Another version had it that Mr. Wiek off was shot by someone connected with the bank. Later George H. Wiekoff, president of the Bank of Xew Amsterdam was shot twice in the abdomen and side this afternoon while in his private office in the bank by a man named Clarence Clark. Clark demanded money and meeting with refusal fired the shots, then turned the pistol on himself. Both are now at the hospital in an uncon scious condition. When Clark had gained access to Wickoff's office he pre sented the following letter which was written on Hotel Marlborough paper in a clear legible hand: "We want $6,000; five one thousand dollar bills, ten one hundred dollar bills." "I will shoot you if you make a move ment, so be careful. My partner out side also has you covered and if you give alarm within three minutes I will throw a stick of dynamite through the front entrance. "Put the money in an envelope. Don't talk." The shots wer heard by a patrolman in the street who ran into the bank building in time to see Clark shoot him self. Mr Wiekoff is 60 years old and re sides in Mont-Clare, X. J. ClarJc is 30 years old and wears a sandy moustache. He was well dressed. FAVOR ABLE FOR CROPS. Has Been the Weather of the Fast Week. The weekly weather and crop report which will be issued by Weather Ob server Jennings tomorrow will say: During the past week the tempera ture has been below normal in the east ern two-thirds of the state, and above normal in the western third. Good rains have fallen south of the Kansas river and east of Xess and Ford coun ties; also in the extreme northwestern counties. But little rain fell elsewhere. The week has been very favorable for all crops over the eastern half of the state.

Three Foreigners With Jawbreaking ITames Plunder the Treasury and We Let Them. X'ew York, June .15. Heidelbach, Ickelheimer Co. have engaged $100,000 in gold for shipment to Germany to morrow. L. Van Tlofman Co have engaged $350,000 gold at the sub-treasury for shipment to Germany on the Havel.

"Here I came all the way from Dover to see the circus, and now look at ;ne. I never went to a circus nor a fair, and I wanted to see this show." This was what James McCarron said this noon when lie was locked behind the bars of the city prison. He is a farmer of Dover and began to celebrate too early in the day. Patrolman Bahl picked him up in an alley. "I should think these policemen ought to kill a fellow when they arrest him, instead of bring ing him in here," and then the jolly farmer from Dover danced a little. Death of Mrs. Sarah Hahn.

The day force will be on duty till midnight and the night force will begin early this afternoon.

A lim ited number of single copies in stamped wrappers, ready for mailing, may be secured at this office for four cents each.

A special to tha Times-Herald from Xew Tork say?: A rumor which comes from the oliiees of a well known law firm, with the head of which President Cleveland is on most intimate terms, is to the effect that Grover Cleveland. Thomas B. Heed and Secretary Carlisle will, after the 4th of March, 1S97, establish a law firm in this city, to be known as Cleveland, Reed Carlisle. The announcement of the formation of the above firm will, it is said, effectually answer the question regarding Presitlent Cleveland's inten tion as to a fourth nomination. It may be that this is to be the president's method of answering those who have so anxiously demanded to know the course he intends to pursue. The an nouncement will, too, demonstrate, the secretary's intentions for the future. One incident thct gives a bit of color to this remarkable rumor, is that Speaker Reed made frequent calls at the White house before the adjourn ment of congress. Before his last nom ination Mr. Cleveland was a member of a prominent law firm in this city. Two things concerning that partnership are known. Tiie first is Mr. Clevi hm i surpised all who came into contact witn him by his intimate knowledge of tin law. The second is that the partmi ship proved lucrative to all Connected with it. It was stated many l.s ago that Mr. Reed would, should he fail in his political aspiration, refuse a renomination for congress and renmv--to this city for the practice of law. A t that time nothing- was sriid coin'emo:-; any connections he might form here. CIRCUS WEATHER. Prepared for the Occasion by Observ er J enniogs.

II. ELLIS A Kansas Candidate Who Dares To Kaise His Voite, Against Cy Leland'slSale of Kan saslto Wall Street. Says Ee Will Lose His District by 5, 000 Votes on a Gold Standard Platform. The following- is related in a St. Louis paper: A. If. Ellis, the Republican nominee for congress in the Sixth Kansas dis trict, arrived this morning in great dis tress over tiie prospect of a gold stand ard platform. lie appeared at Kan sas headquarters in the Hotel Hurst before Lit Crum and Xat Barnes were out of bed and straightway filed his protest. "Where's Leland?" Ellis asked. "I saw in the paper that he came out un qualifiedly for the gold standard. Kan sas don't want anything of that kind, anil Kansas men should not encourage the eastern gold bugs to fasten that sort of a platform upon us. I suppose that will be about the size of our dose, but Kansas will not take it. I am sure I will not. I will not be bound by the national platform or any other au thority to support it. I will oppose it on the stump, I will vote agahist it in congress, and no Republican caucus shall whip me into line. If I were to go before my people advoeatinj tlie gold standard I would be beaten in tlie district by 5,000 votes. We of the short grass country know what we want and it is not gold standard. "By saying this I am not saying any thing to eneejurage the Populists. Tb.ey want the 'free coinage of paper.' If the national convention here will give us half a chance, if it wiil not bind the party to the gold power, we can carry Kansas without any trouble this fall. The Democrats are hooking for pro vocation to join hands with tlie Popu lists and if they do there will not be forty straight-out Democrats report at the polls in my district. If there be no fusion 4.500 will vote the straight tick et. So you see I am interested in this thing and as I said before, if this convention forces tlie gold standard upon the party I will bolt just so far as to refuse to take the medicine. I am in the race for congress to win and I wdll advocate what my conscience and my people want and we are forever and eternally opposed to the gold standard." Joe Richards, Harry Gordon, II. S. Taylor, Charley Elliott, M. F. Low, Xat Barnes, Lit Crum, J. R. Burton, John C. Carpenter and J. L. Bristow and later Cyrus Leland heard Fllis' utter ances, but not one expressed a word of sympathy for his sentiments and a number of them expressed tlie contrary view, saying that the only salvation for the Republican party in Kansas was the adoption here next week of a plat form declaring unequivocally for sound money.

Campbell of Stafford county. better known as "Camphell of Stafford." has written a letter to the Ottawa Journal, the Pop ulist paper owned by ex-State Printer Snow and edited by V. J. Costigan. In the course of his letter Campbell eriric-izes some of the actions of Chair man Breident'e.al of the Popuiist state central committee1 and unlit for the po sition of chairman. Fie says: "We have entirely too much machine pohiics. Too much importance is at tached to the state chairman. He should in no case become a dictator. "1 know a thousand men in Kansas, who. in my judgment, are !ettr poli ticians than Mr. Breidenthal. and I say this through the best of feeling. While I behove him to be horest. I think .bdrn a very po..r politician, and have fee- the last four y"ars. "He1 in my judgme-nt is an honest man and an c-xc-Hint bank commis-siom-r. but utterly unfit by nature for state chairman. I know of a great many very fo diseh things that has been done by his permission, at least: things that have hurt the party very muc h. "And we politicians have been afraid to say our sou's were our own for fear w e werald "get it in the neck." p:ut I propose in the future to "speak right out in moetin'." "Xow as to governor. I am for Col. Harris. I want to see Gov.
