THE ST. LOUIS PAGEANT.

The Trades Procession on the Occasion of
the Inauguration of the st. Louis Expo
sitiOn-A CreditabIe Display Viewed by
Immense ThrOngs of PeOpIe-Expeeta-
tiOns Not Altogether Realized.
ST. LOUIS, Mo, September 4.
One of the largest crowds ever cOngregat.
ed in this city got together last night to
witness the grand street pageant which
marked the opening of the new and mag
nificent Exposition Building, just COM
pleted at cost of $625, 900, and which Is
the honest pride of every st. LOuisan's
heart. Owing to insufficient advertising,
comparatively few strangers were seen to
mingle with the throng of sight-seers,
and thus the chief object of all the labor
and expense of the occasion was
thwarted.
The thousands of elevated seats along
the route of the procession were early oc-
cupied, while all the principal thorough
fares and side streets leading into them,
swarmed with teeming thousands of
spectators.
The pageant, while not without merit,
fell far short of what the ST.
Louis public had been led to
anticipate both from past experiences and
the promises of those having the matter
In charge. A few of the floats came
up to the expectations of the spectators,
while many proved positive disappoint-
ment.
The military companies in the line of
march were principally noted for the
mastery straggle which marked their
movements; but to this general rule the
Tredway Rifles proved a most happy ex-
ception, their order of march and coca
sional evolutions presenting the appear
ance of a piece of perfect machinery con-
troIled by the hand of a master
mechanic. The decorations and
iluminations along the line of march
were only tolerable, with the single cx-
ceptiOn of the display at the Exposition
building itself, where the effect produced
was fully equal to the effort made, and
could only have been improved by tasty
illumination of the interior of
the great structure itself.
On the whole the ''Grand pageant and
opening exercises" were a disappoint-
ment to those who witnessed them,
which can only be excused by the brief
time allotted for the preparations.
1t is believed, however, that the Ex-
position itself, whenf fully under way, will
realize the most sanguine predictions of
its friends and promoters and satisfy the
most critical of visitors.

j, w. Owens, Owner OF the Racing Mnre
Nora NJ, Perpetually Ruled of the st.
Louis Track, Having Been Detected In an
EndeavOr to Throw n Raoe-A Lamo
Plea.
ST. LOUIS, Mo. September
Inquiry into the Nora NJ. matter was
pursued till late last evening. II will be
remembered that this mare was entered
| for five furlOng heat race last Friday, for
which she should have carried los pounds.
When the other seven horses were at the
post her owner, or rather the owner Of
her running qualities. w. Owens
informed the judges that he could
get no one TO ride the mare
except boy named Hartman,
who could ride no lighter than ia "a
pounds. As the mare had been warm
favorite, first, in fact, until just before
the race, the officials would not listen TO
Owens suggestion that he be allowed to
draw the mare, and insisted on her start
ing with even this extra weight up for
the first heat, while they directed that
boy of the proper weight be procured for
the others. The starter reported that
it was with the greatest diff
ficulty he could get Hartman
to bring the mare to the post at all,
though when another jockey, Thayer,
was put up Norah NJ. acted wei in every
way, gave no trouble at the post aud
won the succeeding heats and race. Evil
dence was given TO the judges that Wren
Yetmau had been regularly engaged to
ride the mare and that he could do SO at
her proper weight of los pounds. 1t
was proved to their satisfaction that the
boy had been told by Owens that he
should receive $25 not to ride the mare,
but TO
KEEP OUT OF THE WAY.
II vryas r,-ovrad that fbprarrunu
took seat at the back of the stand,
course, to say the least of &c, very unus-
ual for a iocky, and that when seen there
and questioned by people interested In
the mare, he acquainted them that Owens
had promised him money to stay away.
1t was further stated that ThayeT, "A
Jockey who could also ride the weight,
had gone so far as to offer Owens $50 to
allow him to ride instead of
charging him Jockeys fee
for the reason that he, Thayer, had back
ed the mare to win him $500. 1t was
further proven that QuautrellY the well
known and able jockey, told Owens up to
the very moment of the race that he could
and would ride the mare at ITO pounds,
and the case therefore narrowed into the
facts that while Yetman and Thayer were
ready to ride at los pounds, Quantrell at
only two pounds extra, Owens went out
of the way to pick Hartmann, who it was
allowed has
NEVER RIDDEN RACE
in his life, and put him up at six ana
three-quarter pounds over weight Tho
defense made by Owens practically con-
sisted in his statement that though he
had been racing for a considerable time
he had never taken the trouble to even
read the rules of racing. lie stated that
he had been offered $500 In Chicago To
pull the mare there, and declared him
self innocent on this occasion. Tho
judges, however, were fully satisfied of
his guilt from the evidence of the outside
parties, and ruled him off the track for
life,

WHITE RIVER JUNCTION, VT, Sept. g.
The election in this State ycster-
day was for Governor ard other State Of
tlcers, members of Congress and a Legis-
lature, which will choose a successor
to Senator Morrell. The returns so far
indicate falling off of the Republican
vote from that of 1880 of about fourteen
per cent, and falling off of the Demo-
cratic vote of 1880 of about nine per
cent, and consequent decrease of the
Republican plurality. The Republican
State ticket is elected by 10000 plurality.
Both Republican candidates for Congress,
J. w. Stewart and General w. w. Grout,
are elected.
In the lower district General GrouG ran
behind his ticket. The Legislature is
of course overwhelmingly Republican.
The candidates for Governor ran ahead
of the city.
The following is the State ticket
elected:
Governor-Samuel E. Pingree, of Hart

slander and hanging a bologna sausage
to the door-knob of the front door of her

in two factions. Both sections became

around and on the seats and called each
other liars and hypocrites. Great excite

were guarded by the police. Mrs. Brad

VIII Not Brook Fam Iiarity.
CHICAGO, Ill, September 1.
General Butler arrived last evening at five
O'Clock. His reception was rather insig-
with the Reception Committee concern
ing the time of his coming. There were
only two reporters at the depot when he
alighted from the train.
There were about five thousand people
present when General Butler appeared on
the platform. The hall was uncomfOrta-
bly, warm. The General was warmly
greeted.
Upon being introduced, he said he
took the presence of such a large au-
dience not SO much compliment to him
self as to the cause in which they were
engaged. A great portion of his remarks
was devoted to criticising the RepubH
eau and Democratic parties. He pre-
dicted the ultimate success of the PeO-
pies party. Hs said that the working
men sent him to the Democratic Conven-
tion to find out what they would do for
workingmen. They would not promise
anything, and he left them. If the Peo-
ple'S party voted in considerable num-
berS, the next time the Republicans and
Democrats would come to them, asking:
''What are you going to do?" The speak
er then enumerated the wishes of the
workingmen. He advocated a mOder-
ately protective tariff, a law making it IL
legal to work men more than sixty hours
in a week, and a law providing that
women and children could not be worked
under any circumstances. He concluded
by again predicting that the labOring men
aud the business men will sometime con-
troll the destinies of the country.
General Butler then shook hands with
many as they filed out of the hall. He
arrived at the Palmer House at about ten
O'Clock. As soon as he entered the hall
on the parlor floor B. p. Hutchinson, of
this city, sometimes called "Old Hutch, 1"
approached him. Being several years
ago an intimate friend of Buffers, he
walked behind and struck him on the
shoulder.
"You do that again, SIR" exclaimed
General Butler, angrily, ''and | will
strike you across the head with this
cane"
The act was repeated.
''I tell you mean just what say"
said Butler.
Mr.. Hutchinson looked astonished, but
not desiring to be put off, he followed
Butter into his room.
al don't think that you have approached
me in the proper way" said the General
in a surIy manner, and he pointed TO the
door.
Mr. Hutchinson walked away feeling
as ouly a millionaire can feel who has
been squelched so summarily.

burgh-His Crime.
PITTsBURGH, PA, September 2.
Governor Pattison at a late hour last
evening declined to interfere with the
execution of the law in the case of Martin
Weinberger. Accordingly he was hanged at
O:37 this morning for the murder of his
countryman and companion in business,
Louis Gotfreund, June 10th, 1882. On
the day of the murder the two Hungarian
peddlers, while travelling together in Got
freund's wagon, quarreled, and Got
freund was shot by his companion, who,
in order to conceal the crime, hid the
body in the woods.
1t was subsequently discovered in an
advanced state of decomposition. Search
was made for the murdered mans COM
panion, when it was discovered that he
had sold the horse and wagon to an Ohio
farmer and returned to this city, where
he was arrested, tried and convicted on
circumstantiaI evidence. Weinberger
claimed all along that GOtfreund shot him
self, and it was not until recently that he
admitted the crime. His neck was not
broken, and he strangled to death in fif-
teen minutes.
