A st. Louis special says: The Post
Dispatch printed an article this evening,
based on a statement by person whom
it calls well-known local dynamitcr,
to the effect that Cunningham, now un-

the recent explosion at the Tower, Is
the young man who two years ago lived
here and who was described by the
newspapers at the time as an ''explo-
siye- and infernal-machine maker, and
full of schemes to blow up all the pub
lie buildings in London" He was
known here as Michael j. Byrne. He
WAS a harness-maker, and devoted his
spare time and money to experiments
with explosives and to making internal
machines. He also lived in Chicago,
where he was known as James Gilbert.
and in Philadelphia, where he went by
the name of James Cunningham. lie
claimed to have been obliged to leave
Ireland because he was implicated in
the murder of a landlord, but his story
was not credited by his friends. lie
was in Denver last August, but dis
appeared from there.
One of Byrne's pet schemes was to
organize band Of one hundred men.

Of explosives, to go to London and on
a certain day, at given signal, to
simultaneously explode the machines
under the walls of public buildings.

the free kindergarten fund.- visited the Sunday
schools of the Second and Tabernacle Churches,
yesterday afternoon and created very favor
able impression. His talk to the Tabernacle

At the Grand Opera-house, last night, an ex-
hibition was given by the pupils of the Independ-
ent Turner Society, under the supervision of the
instructor, Richard pertuch. A crowded house
enjoyed the varied performance. and very gen.
erously applauded several excellent features.
From the first number to the last, attention was
held by the adeptness of the little people in vari
ons gymnastic exercises, which began with the
entire school exhibiting at one time, the efficiency
of some in swinging, of others on the ladder,
still others in leaping, and the strength of two
companies of boys in the tug of war"
Preceding this was impressive
massing Of the whole school on the stage.
1t was noticeable that in heavy exercise, such as
ladder and hand climbing, the girls were as pro
fcient as boys could be. A march and stick ex-
ercise by the evening class OF boys was well
done, and the horizontal bar performances by
adult members of the society equaled profes-
sional agility, particularly in the difficult feats.
Equally as good was the leaping and turning OF
the same performers over the block horse. The
little maidens gave great delight to the audience

SUNDAY WHISKY.
II Shows Its Effect in Free Fight at Mr..
Stuckey's Place.

At police rol-c call last evening Superintendent
Lang repeated his instructions to the patrolmen,
to carefully watch all places whore liquor is sold
He made the order more emphatic than usual by
telling the men wherever they had the least sus-
picion of the Sunday liquor law being violated,
suggested either by bright or dim light in the
bar-rooms, to thoroughly investigate the matter.
Within half hour H. W. Sextro bar-keeper for
John Huegle, on East Washington street. was
brought to the station house on the charge of
selling liquor on Sunday.
But while roll-call was in progress q fight oc-
cured in Charles Stuckeys place. on East
Washington street. not far from the station
house. This is the saloon in which Sim Coy
denies having any proprietary interest AS the
account goes, Tom Blauvelt and Bob Greenman
dozen people in the room, among them Jim Nc
Bride Greenman was served with beer, which
he paid for and drank while Blauvelt took cider.
The customary chatting, it is believed,
began between the newcomers and others
of the crowd, some of whom were not in the
best OF humor from liberal rotations at the bar
Hard words followed when. it is charged Nc
Bride struck Blauvelt in the face with his first,
causing painful cut under the eye An elderly
ing beer glass, struck Greenman on the head
with it just as he put down his glass. The
saloon frequenters became turbulent, each one
waiting for chance to take part in the fracas
But the cry Of police brought Mr.. Stuckey to
the front. who hastily locking the front
doors, as hurredly put the crowd
out Of the rear doors, while Sergeant Travis
and other officers demanded admission
at the Washington street entrance, The lights
went down and proprietor Stuckey refused to
let the officers in unless they showed a warrant
No arrests were made on the spot, as the crowd
had scattered in all directions through an alley
outlet. Blauvelt will have Mcbride arrested to-
day, and Greenman is anxiousy searching for
the nameef his assailant
Immediately following the fight, Sim Coy and
one or two friends came hurriedly to the station
house, where Coy and Superintendent Lang had
an earnest conversation. presumably about the
tight, but the outcome of what was said, either
by Sim or the Superintendent is to be revealed,
If possible, hereafter.

The Zealandia on Saturday last
brought the welcome advices Of the
success Of the late effort of deputa-
ton Of plantation agents Of San Fran
cisco for the disposal Of the coming crop
or crops. For some years past this
has been done with the California Sngar
Refinery, and as rule, on basis, if
we are correctly informed, honorable
and acceptable to the planters 1t was
quite natural therefore that in negota-
tons looking to the control Of the com.
ing crop, Mr.. Spreckels should be met
to see what offer he proposed to make,
or what portion of the crop he felt dis
posed to handle. That he failed to
take advantage OF his opportunity and
forced the committee to seek other
means OF disposal Of the output of the
plantations they represented is no sec
ret They have succeeded in putting
things into such shape that within a
months time the American Refinery
concludes contract for three years on
the Cuban basis, and increases its cap
ital to $1,000, 900, and has already
commenced to extend its works.
This successful move brings joy to
not few hearts throughout these
islands. 1t beamed from not few
countenances as the news was given
forth on he arrival Of the mail 1t will
no doubt infusc new life and activity
into our commercial affairs, and gives a
promising outlook in various ways.
