IT will be seen from report elsewhere
yesterday brought before the grand jury
and asked to give the name of the person
or persons from whom he learned of the
raid made on the night OF the Sd instant
10y twelve deputy shcriils, on the premises
ola negro named Webb, suspected of keep
ing gambling den. On being asked for
this information, the reporter stated that
he knew nothing about The raid of his
own personal knowledge, and, being
pressed for the names Of his iniormants,
declined to give them, under arule that is
imperative in the conduct and manage
mont OF newspapers. But the grand jury
refused TO accept this explanation, and in
sisted upon a categorical answer to the
question. This being still refused, the
reporter was taken into court and the
matter was referred TO Judge Greer, who
suggested that the jury avoid, ii possible,
pushing the reporter to the point
Of incurring the extreme penalty
OF the law, recognizing the force of the
plea set up by him. The result was that
he was given 4 week to consult with his
iniormants as TO their willingness TO reveal
themselves or be revealed by him. We
have no doubt that they win readily re-
veal themselves, especially as it does not
in any way involve them in trouble, as
the statements made by them to the Ar
PEAL, and by it TO the public, are, we un-
ierStand, admitted by the deputy sheriffs
10 he substantially correct. With all due
respect TO the grand jury, we think that
in this case they have wasted n great deal
of time for nothing, and can readily re-
licve our reporter of any further annoy
ance by suggesting to the Criminal Court
that it invite the special attendance of the
sheriff and his deputies and ask them il
they did not fire shots and shout and yell
on the occasion referred to, We do not
believe they will deny what they have al
ready admitted, nor do we believe they
wish to.

JACK HAVERLY
To Build Two New Theaters, One I'm
New York and One in Philadelphia.

New York, November 13.-J. H. Haver-
ly says the report that he was about to
build two new theaters, one in this city,
the other in Philadelphia, is true. The
money for the enterprise will be furnished
by Chicago capitalists, but he would have
the management OF the building and fur
nishing OF the theaters. The site for
the New York theater was already
chosen. He proposed to build after
the plan of the London Alhambra,
at cost of Sl,2O0,0OO, and it would
be the largest and handsomest place of
amusement in the country, with a seating
capacity of 1000. The Philadelphia thea
ter will not be constructed on such an ex-
tensive scale, but after the same plan.
Haverly said he expected to begin to
build early next spring, and both will be
completed ready to open in November

The st. Louis Police MIDDLE.

Police Commissioners, at their regular
meeting this evening, decided to appeal
the case of Chief-of-Police Campbell to the
Supreme Court, and postpone his trial on
the charges preferred against him by
Commissioners Lutz and Caruth till next
week. An attempt was made to suspend
Campbell pending action of the Supreme
Court, but the mayor, as presiding officer,
would not permit Lutz and truth to

ESTABLISHED 1910.

THE water question, after all that has
been said and done by the citizens and all
the profuse asseverations and promises OF
President Latham, is just where it was six
months ago. Nothing has been accom-
plished and nothing is likely to be until the
courts or the Legislature interfere. What
ought to be done is clearly set forth inthe
report of Messrs. Harrington, Jones and
Menken, but Mr.. Latham doubts if this
can be done-we suppose he means short
of an expenditure that would swamp his
company. As it stands it is.a nice mess
Of "pi," that nothing short of an act of
the Legislature or an order of court can
sort out to the advantage of the people.

AMERICA yesterday lost one of her most
illustrious surgeons and philanthropists
By the death of DIR. james Marion Sims
For forty years he has been conspicuous
for his discoveries and the application of
them in the cure of diseases peculiar to
women. DIR. Sims was admirably adapted
10y constitution and habit to the work to
which he consecrated his life. He was
gifted in il above all other men in his pro-
fcssion. Added to extensive reading and
practice and TO the engrossing study of
his specially, he possessed almost pre-
scient power enabling him to diagnose
from the face OF patient, no matter how
skilliully the results of pain might be
masked, the special penalties that made
life a burden and peace impossible. Thou
sands OF women in Europe as well
as in this country to-day owe life, health
and happiness to the renowned surgeon
whose inventive skill overcame diseases
that until his day and his remedies came
were deemed incurable. Full of compass
sion for the suffering, he established two
hospitals, at which for years, at his own
expense, he healed and succored the suf-
iering women who elsewhere could find
no relief, His gifts were great; he made
them greater by study and expended them
freely for suffering humanity. In the
brief sketch we publish in another
column. our readers can trace the
career of this king of his craft, whose
memory the whole country will cherish
and whose achievements it is proud of
Full Of years us of honors, DR.. Sims has
gone to his rest beloved by wide circle
Of friends in both continents, and mourned
10y the faculty at the head of which he
had stood without peer for many years.

Special to the Appeal
WASHINGTON, November 13.-An in
formal conference of Carlisle's friends,
headed by Phil Thompson, was held to-
day. After careful canvass of the situa-
ton as it now presents itself they estimate
that Cox, who will get about thirty-five
votes, will certainly drop out after the
second ballot, and that on the third ballot
the vote will stand 10 for Carlisle and
eighty for Randall. This calculation in
cludes the entire eight votes from Ten
nessee. The Randall men say that this
estimate is extravagant and that particu-
larly in Tennessee and Georgia Randall
will divide the vote with Carlisle. The
friends of Randall are considerably exer-
cised over the news of his sickness and
fear his absence will seriously affect his
chances.

A special dispatch from Philadelphia
says the Hon. Samuel J. Randall is now
lying seriously i'll at his cottage, two miles
from Berwin Station, on the Pennsylvania
railroad, eighteen miles out OF town. His
condition, according to the gentleman in
charge of his office, is not alarming, but it
annoys his family and friends. The dis
ease began with the gout, as was supposed
all the Randalls, from Joseph, the Oldest,
down., having been afflicted with that
complaint-in his right foot or toe. Since
then it has spread to the ankle, and it is
feared erysipelas has set in in one of his
knees. His condition is not considered
dangerous, but his friends are concerned
about him. .
