His Last Game OF Billiards.

New York Telegram.
John p. Rutherford was speaking to a
party of friends last night about the
story recently published in the Tele-
gram about Col. William III. Nave, and
how he was too polite for the great ban
dit. Jesse james, to rob him. He said
that James became quite friendly to the
colonel.
Col. Nave and myself" said Mr..
rutherford, were playing billiards one
night i'll st. Joseph, when a man was
playing at an adjoining table with two
pistols buckled around him. l acct
dentally pOked my cue against him, and
he jumped as if shocked by electricity
Col. Nave seemed to fear there would
be trouble, so he said: Col. Jesse
James, shake hands with my friend,

The milk is commonly slowed away in

enteen out of nineteen of the

were seized with serious symptoms, in
Guiding vomiting, gripping. diarrhea
and pyreXia; one attack, that of the

was traced to morbid changes in the
food, which had led to the production
of poisonous principles, and to the de-

Among the conditions tending to induce
such changes, want of ventilation and

BOGUS RECEIPTS.
Damaging Testimony Against
Sykes in the Fraudulent Ware
hOuSe Receints Case


Sykes in the Fraudulent Ware
house Receipts Case.
CHICAGO, Jan. 27.-The most damag-
ing evidence brought against Ware
houseman James w. Sykes, OH trial be-
fore Judge Horton, charged with hav-
ing defrauded the Merchants Loan and
Trust company out of 800. was given
by Attorney Frank j. Smith this morn
ing. He testified to having attended a
meeting of Sykes creditors in October,
1886, at which Mr.. Sykes admitted that
the date of the issuance of the receipts,
and that these receipts were cOnSe-
Quently fictitious. OrSOn Smith, of the
Merchants Loan and Trust company,
gave similar testimony. Mr.. Smith
said he expressed surprise when Sykes
informed him Of this, and said: "Why,
how could you do such thing, Mr..
Sykes?" The latter replied that he had
gotten into hot water. He was like a
captain at sea, he said-he tried to bring
his ship into port through the storm and
breakers and failed. Edward B. Strong.
board of trade operator, was at the
same meeting, and testified as to the
two other witnesses, and also to having
paid storage charges to Sykes for grain
in store in the warehouse. A ruling by
the court to which the defense eX-
cepted was thought to afford the prose-
cutiOn some material aid in making out
the case. 1t was to the effect that, the
Indictment having been found under
the statute for issuing fraudulent ware
house receipts, if the state proved the
facts covered by the statute the QueS-
ton of intent was immaterial.

and he stated that OH the brow of the
hill leading down from Selby avenue
the cars were stopped as usual, and the
grip tried, and everything was in per-

was about half accomplished there was
sudden lurch of the train and the
speed was increased materially to the
curve. Looking behind. ColWell re-
marked, well, the passenger car is
keeping on the track, anyhow but he
had hardly uttered these words ere the
coupling parted and the passenger car
pitched end over end into the street.
The grip car, however, remained upon
the track. and none of the passengers
were injured in the least. Examination
of the cable shows that there is not the
slightest break at the point where the
accident occurred, or for that matter
anywhere between the terminals of the
road ,,

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-General Pope
has no walkover for the Mankato post
office. There is new star upon the
horizon to-day and ii is larger than a
mans hand. Maj. Clark, one of the
ableSt and most popular Democrats in
Blue Earth county, has SHE'D his castor

called. 1t is stated that he has the in
side track to the heart and conscience
of Cleveland, and that his friends are
legion. Certain parties claim that
General Pope is championed by Hunt,
Nelson, Sabin, Davis and other Republi-
cans, and that is enough to damn any
Democratic candidate for office. Hunt,
when here, was not prudent and GER
tainly not diplomatic i'll his presentation
of the case. Instead of making friends
he aroused enemies for Pope, and the
gallant soldier seems to have fallen
among the Philistines. His chances

model chorister. He had had
wIdeO experience in this line,
for possessing musical gifts of high
order, it was through these he sought
to make himself useful, and in Cleve-
land, as we'll as in this city, he will be
long gratefully remembered by the
churches for his leadership in the serv-
ice of song. In 1887 he transferred his
membership to the House of Hope, in
which church he endeared himself to
its members by his active interest in all
that pertained to its welfare. In his
home and musical circles Mr.. Saunders
appeared at his best, and therein the
charm of his genial manners, his cordial
hospitality and his rare taste tor and
enjoy ment of music attracted and i'm
pressed all who were privileged to meet
him. His beautiful home life and devo-
ton as husband and father were not
the least conspicuous features in his
character. Yesterday noon when about
to return to his Office he announced his
purpose of taking the cable cars, and
parted from his family in perfect health,
the best of spirits. Before many min
uteS had TRANSFERRED he was brought back
to his home, dead. His injuries were so
severe that he was not long conscious

short time, breathing his last sur

who sought to do all in their power for
his comfort. 1t was found that in addi-
ton to cuts about the forehead by the
glass of the shattered car windows,
his skull was fractured and some of his
ribs broken. The shock to his wife and
daughter and the large circle of friends
and neighbOrS whom he had attached to
himself was overwhelming, and the oc-
currence threw gloom over the entire
neighborhood. He leaves brother and
sister in ST. Paul. and brother in
Cleveland and two sisters reside in

funeral will be announced later. p

Use of the Mails

Use of the Mails.
CHICAGO, Jan. 27.-Thomas S. Gard
ner, proprietor of the Chicago Farm
Journal, was arrested last April by the
United States postal authorities for
fraudulent use of the mails in conduct
ing lottery and gift enterprise, was
found guilty in Judge BlOdgett's court
and fined $500. Gardner advertised ex-
tensively in the papers, alleging that
with every yearly subscription received
for the Farm Journal valuable set of
autographs would be sent, together
with the paper. A carefully worded
circular was also sent out promising a
grand distribution among the subscrib-
ers of costly prizes, at such time as the
paper should have attained circula-
ton of 100000 or over. Gardeners
scheme proved very profitable, but the
"grand distribution" never took place
and Gardner was arrested. The arrest
and disclosure Of Gardeners methods

the time.

STEAMBOAT INSPECTION.
Great Need Of Inland Lakes Being

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-Hon, George
Hayes, United States supervising in
spector of steam vessels at St. Paul
called at the GLOBE in company with
Hon. w. P. Murray. Mr.. Hayes is at
tending the annual meeting of the ma
tiOnal board of Supervisors. He says:
I'VE have succeeded in getting Red
lake, Rainy lake and Lake of the
Woods, a chain of lakes $50 miles long,
added to the inspecting service ana
Mr.. Murray has been invited
TO address the board on the neces-
Sity of recommending legislation
looking TO the protection of steamboats,
on inland lakes. More persons are car
ried Oh Lake MinnetOnka annually
than are carried as through passengers
between st. Paul and New Orleans.
River boats are inspected and paSSen-
gers protected as far as possible from
accident or careleSSneSS by the inSpec-
ton laws. Yet lake steamers are not
subject to laws, and passengers are un-
protected. The question before us to-
day is as to whether or not it is conSti-
tutiOnal and competent for congress to
legislate on such matters" Judge Mae
Donald. being present, declined to give
an opinion on the matter without in
vestigating. Mr.. Hayes and Mr.. Muir
ray say that Rice's bill for Great
ing a board of local inspectors
at st. Paul will undoubtedly pass, and
ought to pass congress this session.
This inspection service covers the en-
tire country, but Northwestern business
requires especial inspection. The
steamboats, carried 50O,0OO,OOO passen-
gers in the last year and only 81 passen-
gers were lost, and only boiler eXplo-
SiOns out OF 5000. This shows the work
done by our board. In Hayes district
there were only lives lost by acct
dental drowning and 100000 people car
ried, and 1--WE have had no boiler eXplO-
