THE KNIGHTS TEMPLAR.
THE TRIENNIAL CONCLAvE AT
ST. LOUIS.
Preparations for the Great Event
Approaching Completion-AecOm-
mOdatiOns for Visitors.

ST. LOUIS, Mo, August lS.-Prepara-
tons for the great triennial conclave,
Knights Templsr, which is TO be held
here next month, are rapidly ap-
preaching completion, and will be as
complete and satisfactory as 1t is pos.
sible t make them. No hing will be
overlooked that will contribute to the
comfort and pleasure of the visitors.
The vice chairman OF the General
Committee reports that he already
has positive sdvices that $4,000
Knights Templar, accompanied by
10000 members and their families,
will be here, and that fully 100000
other persons will be present to wit
ness and share In the great demon
stration. The reports which have
gone abroad that there will be
lack OF accommodation for the great
crowd are entirely erroneous.
Good quarters will be provided for
everybody who desires to come. Ac-
commodations already ct the COM
mand of the committee are more than
ample 10 meet present demands, and
they can be almost indefinitely ex-
tended. The management OF the union
depot are arranging to entirely clear
their yPrds and tracks from Tenth to
Twenty-tirst streets of freight cars dur
ing concave week, and that space
allotted to passenger trains. Already
space has been assigned for $50 psrlor,
and dining cars chartered by COM
manderies, AID to be occupied by
them duIirg their stay here. An in
definite number Of cars can be given
space in the same way, aud the prob
abilities are that sleeping cars
will occupy the tracks for
several miles and be run in and out
of the depot grounds at the pleasure of
their occupants. A SPECIAL police
guard will be placed over these cara
by the railroad company. The order
of the Eastern Star, which holds the
same relations to the Masonic fraternity
that Daughters of Rsbecca do to Odd
Fellows, will hold its annual conven-
ton during conclave week, and
preparations are being made to give
its lady members fine entertainment
during their stay here.

BUSINESS TROUBLES.
Heavy Failure nj BOSTON.

Boston, MASS August lS.-Samuel
R. Payson to-day made an assignment
TO Samuel Johnson, of HoveY & Co.
The announcement of this assignment
caused great surprise, as Payson had
been considered as one of the wealth
lest men in Boston. His financial diff
ficulty, it is stated, has been caused
by Endorsement of paper OF the Indian
Orchard Mills, which are virtually
owned by himself and family. William
Gray, it,, whose dead body IVES found
this morning, was treasurer of the
mill, and Psyson's assignment is the
natural consequence Of Gray's heavy
dtfa cation. Mr., Payson ia man of
the highest standing, and his difficult
ties elicit sympathy from every quar-
ter, and it is thought by many that
they will prove only of temporary
nature.
Payson has submitted bis rssigna-
ton as president of the City National
Bank, and il will be acted upon
by the direc.o at a meeting tomor-
row. His liabilities are estimated at
about f350,000. Payson stated this
morning that he thought he had
ampe funds to pay every cent of his
indebtedness in full, but his affairs are
in such condition that his property
could not be realized upon at decent
value at forced sale, 30 he believed it
for the best interest OF everyone to
make an assignment. The failure is
due to shiinkage in shares of the In
dian Orchard mills. Payson was a
large owner in the Hallowell Manu-
featuring Company, of Hallowell, Me.

JACK ION, MISS.
Complaints Against the Railroads =
The understandable Dis.
cussiOn.
IsPxcIAL TO THE APPRAL.l

JACKSON, MISS, August 18.-The
railroad commissioners have cited the
officers of the Vicksbnrg and Meridian
Railroad Company to appear on the
20 h, and those of the Illinois Central
on the 30th instant, TO consider the re.
vision and reduction of their tariffs on
ireights. This action is based upon
numerous complaints filed with the
commission from parties on the lines of
these roads. These complaints arise
from the fact that in cases where re-
bates and special rates have heretofore
been given by the roads they have
withdrawn the same and adopted the
maximum ra'es fixed by the commits
sion, they being prohibited by law
from making determinations. The
commission have Issued an order
requiring the Gulf aud Ship
Island Railroad Company TO file their
bond for the lease of the penitentiaty
on or before the Goth of October next
or forfeit their right TO tie lease. The
Attorney General is directed to have
the contract for said lease prepared by
the Goth instant.
Col. HCokef's friends here are great
ly ella ed at the reports they have re-
ceived relative to the joint discussion
between Mes srs. Hooker and BarRs-
dale at Fayette on Monday last, and at
the popular sentiment in Hooker's
favor that is reported from Jefferson
and Lincoln counties.

NEW COMPLICATIONS IN THE PO-
LITICAL SITUATION.
Col. Ford Determined to Make the
Race for Treasurer-A Sad
Accident.
ESPECIAL TO THE APPKAL.I

HELENA, ARK, August 1S.-Con-
trary to the expectations OF the men
composing the Justly celebrated gum
elastic Democratic Committee who 80
summarily squeched portion of the
regular and formally nominated nomi-
neee of the Democratic party, compli-
cations have arisen that may possibly
prevent the epds OF their trade being
accomplished. Col. E. M. Ford, the
present incumbent, Democratic Treas
urer of the county, aud who was con-
sidered so formidable that no one
could be found TO oppose him before
the Democratic primaries, emph ti-
calIy refuses TO abide by the arbitrary
action of the committee and will APP
peal to the citizens OF the county to
eustain him in his position. Decisive
protests are being made by the lead
ing Democrats of the county, and
unless the committee reconsider the
matter and place him and W. H.
Burner back, it is hard to foretell what
the result will be. One thing is GER
tain, that an overwhelming majority
of them bitterly condemn the action
of the committee and will make every
exertion consistent to see him re-
elected.
Henry Smith, hard working, in
dustrious man, of considerable prop
erty, living near Pine City, went oat
squirrel hunting Yesterday and had re-
turned home. He was standing on
his doorsteps talking to his little girl,
with the butt of the gun resting on
step above. By some means the gun
slipped off OF the step and the ham,
mer hitting caused it to discharge its
contents into his forehead killing him
instantly.

yesterday at the Hospital de Saint
Jean, in connection with the case
of the woman cut in pieces
by the midwife, Rodelet, and
her lover, Masquelier. As
have already sent you, the former,
who denies the accusation, tried to
throw discredit on Masquelier's con-
fession by stating he was physically
incapable of cutting up body in the
manner described by himself. In con-
sequence Masqueller was requested by
the authorities TO cut up at the
Hospital de Saint Jean The body Of a

The Mystery of Mrs. j. p. WOOten's
Death Cleared Up.
ESPECIAL TO TIE APpEAL.l


JACKSON, Tenn, August 1S.-Mrs. ].
P. Wooten, who died at her home, ia
this city, on the 9th instant, suddenly
and under:peculiar circumstances, has
caused considerable talk during the
p2s. week in Jackson society. IL was
believed all the time by Mr.. Wooten
that his vile was poisoned by negro
woman who lived on the place Last
Saturday the body OF Mrs. Wooten
was disinterred, and Drs. Fenner and
Cartme!l removed the stomach and
sent it to Mr.. j. @. Wharton, chemist,
at Nashville, to be analysed. Today
Mr.. Wootsn received dispatch from
the chemist that his wife had been
poisoned with strychnine, which was
found in her somsch. Considerable
excitement prevails throughout the
city, and serious trouble is expected
tonight, as it is boldly proclaimed by
good citizens that this female devil
should dangle at the end of a rope be-
fore morning. 1t has Just been de-
ve!oped that this same neRress has
caused the death OF several other Of
our citizens by poison. Some OF our
best citizens are endsavoring to keep
down mob violeuce, and are insisting
that the law should take its course.

ments msde by the lawyers for the
deiente indicated that they, like their
clients, were autonomous and, he
added, ridiculous. He believed thst
the verdict which the Jury would
bring in this case would be one that
he could hand down to his children
with pride-if anarchy spared them.
Once, in the course Of his address,,
Mr.. Grinnell took occasion to say tina,
Mr.. Ingham's address for the State
was monument of orAtory, which
was unsnswerable This had been
openly acknowledged by one Of the
attorneys in the case, when the court
had adjourned on that day.
Capt. Black-Grinnell, that stae'
ment is outrageous. Such remark
was certainly never made by me Nor
any OF my associates.
The other counsel for the defense
objected and denied that they had
thus complimented Mr. Iugham.
Mr.. Giinnell continued, saying he
was only paying his associate a COM
pliment.
A moment later a similar remark
was made by the States Attorney and
resu ted in sensation in the court.
Some one in the crowded room sp-
plauded vigorously. The Court or
dered that the person or persons
making the disturbance be instantly
elected. The bailiff could not locate
the parties and the States Attorney
moved that the entire audience be re-
moved. He would prefer, he said, to
speak only to the jury.
Capt. B ack seconded the motion,
but the Court, after severely repri-
manding the audience, said upon a
recurrence of the disturbance that
section of the room in which the dis
turbsnce took place would be cum.

element running through the audi

the States Attorney appeared to

The Court having announced that
he deeired to consult with the attor-
neys for both sides after adjournment,
when Cap. Black rcss at A o'clock to
note an exception to Mr.. Grinnells de-
nomination OF the defendants as "assss-
sinators." The States Attorney pro-
posed ali adjournment then as he had
been interrupted, 80 the court adj

Nearly opposite Bowling Green is q
saloon wherein 1isports medium-built
yellow dog. There is nothing notices
BILE in his general appearance. He is
simply q "ysller dog" Yet he is in
telligent to q marked degree, although
his education pertains rather to the pot
house kindergarten than to the more
refined primary training Of higher life.
The proprietor placed Jack on the bar
and asked him in the most seductive man
ner imaginable whether he would have
some whiskey, at which question Jacks
face assumed q most panied expression,
and be looked the picture Of detection.
perhaps you would like BEER? y
said the proprietor.
Jack barked, and glass of the foam
ing beverage was put before him. He
Tapped ss much as be could without
tanning his nose fast in the glass, and
finding no more forthcoming, lesped
from the counter and lay down under
. table, welting the floor with his tail
to express his satisfaction.
"He only drinks certain amount, "
said the proprietor, and no coaxing can
get him to exceed his limit.
