ALBANY, Sept. 25.-Labor Commits
sioner Peck's counsel, L. J. Mccgan,
again foiled District Attorney Eaton
and his coadjutators in their attempt
Yesterday to bring tho commissioner 10
trial on the criminal charge Of destroy
ing public documents. Attorney Nee.
can even succeeded in having the plea
OF Mr.. Peck to the Indictment sent in
by the grand jury deferred until after
the case OF Anderson against Peck TO
compel the latter to produce the
papers now alleged to have been
burned has been argued. Mr..
AIeegan, as he had agreed, produced
Commissioner Peck before the county
court OF sessions at IL o'clock in the
morning. The district attorney read the
indictment and called upon Peck for n
plea. The commissioner started to
plead not guilty, when his counsel stop,
ned him with wavs Of the hand and
asked Judge Clute to defer the plea till
an. m. next Wednesday, n day which is
after the date set for +. Ellery Andor-
son's case, and day before that set for
hearing the criminal charge against
Peck before Police Justice Guttmann.
Judge Cute granted the request, the
Andersonite9 swallowed their chagrin,
and Commissioner Peck's former bonds
men. Messrs. Thomas Cowell and X. L.
Annesley, came forward and qualified
again in the sum OF $1,000 each.
Labor Commissioner Peck was seen
here on his way TO the court. At 1880
he entered the court room, accompanied
by his counsel, L. J. Mcegan; his stem
oarapher, Albert Rogers, and one OF tho
clerks in the labor bureau, W. j. Rogers.
The quartet smiled as they greeted the
newspaper men and others who were
waiting for them.
To the reporter he said he had no
news about his report. 1t had been
given to the public pretty fully. "But," y
said he, "you know that only part OF
il has been published. don't believe
these fellows who arc after me will like
the other part OF the report any better
than they did the first part. The more
they investigate my sources OF informa.
ton tho less pleased they will be, il
they are looking for evidence OF calam'
ity in operations OF wholesome pro-
tective tariff. 1t is very evident to my
mind that that Anderson committee did
not want the details they asked for.
All they wanted was to haye me refuse

Every good thing has its host of imi-
tators; every genuine article its coun.
terfeits. The imitators always choose
the most valuable and popular article
to counterfeit, so that when they claim
their sham to DO equal, or as good, or
the same as "So-and.So's," the public
may depend upon it that "So-and-So's"
article is the best OF the kind. The
sham proves the genuine merit of tho
thing 1t copies, and never has this been
better illustrated than by the limitations
OF ALLcocE' S Porous PLAsrERs.
ALLcocE's Porous PLAsrERis the stand
ard OF excellence the world over, and its
lmitators in their cry that theirs is las
good as ALLCocE's" are only emphasiz-
ing this fact and admitting "ALLcocE's"
TO be the acme OF perfection, which it is
their highest ambition to initiate. The
difference between the genuine and
these limitations, which copy only gem
eral appearance, is as wide as that be-
tween copper and gold.
The only safe way for purchasers is to
always insist upon having ALLcocK's
Porous PLAsrERs. They are the only
perfect plasters ever produced.

DEATH OF PAT GILMORE.
The Great Band Leader Dies Suddenly n
81. Louis

The Great Band Leader Dies Suddenly ut
ST. Louis.
ST. LOUIS, Sept. 25.-Prof. Patrick
sarsfeld Gilmore, the great impresario,
died at his apartments on the third
floor OF the Lindell hotel at 6:45 o'clock
last evening. At o'clock in the morn
ing he was seized with an attack OF
cholera morbus, brought on by acute
indigestion, which, combined with a
cardiac affection, caused his death.
His wife, his daughter Minnie, and
Drs. II. II. Mudd, James y. Scott, Gus
tay Baumgarten and w. A. Fischet were
at his bedside. For weeks he has been
suffering from palpitation OF the heart,
and even last year he complained OF q
weakness in that organ.
Friday night he was informed OF his
appointment as director OF music at the
Worlds Fair, and this probably aided
the dissolution. At o'clock he rallied
some, but he at once lost consciousness
and passed away. Among his last
words were caution not to let the peo-
pie know that he had had cholera NOR
bus, for fear OF causing o scare and in
teriering with the fall festivities here.
At first the report OF his death was
not believed. His band was playing at
the Exposition under the direction Of
Assistant Director Charles Freudenvoll,
and when the sad news was borne them
many Of the older members broke down
and sobbed like children. The concert
was Immediately stopped and the au-
dience gathered in groups, discussing
the sad feature OF the Exposition. For
time big excitement prevailed. 1t is
thought the band will continue under
Freudenvolps leadership.
Patrick Sarsfeld Gilmore was born
near Dublin on Christmas day, 1920.
When his school days were over he was
apprentiCed to merchant in Athlone,
but his love for music had made him a
member Of the Athlone band. When
eighteen years old, Gilmore came to this
country. In 1858 he organized in Bos-
ton what has since been known as Gil
more's band, the one with which no
has given concerts all over this country
and over half OF Europe.
Gilmore and his band were with
Burnside in the Carolinas in the first
two years OF the war. After the war
Gilmore returned to Boston, and there,
in 1871, he held the great Peace Jubi-
lee which made his name famous
among tho bandmasters OF the world.
Next year he organized another, OF
an international character, foreign ma
tons being asked to take part. 1t was
given in building holding 100000 peo.
pie. The chorus numbered 10000 and
1000 trained musicians took part.
With his jubilee honors heaped upon
him Gilmore came to New York, and,
adding to his original organization,
formed his fomous military band, now
known as Gilmore's Twenty-second
Regiment Band. With this band he
visited in 1878 the various capitals OF
Europe, taking prizes at band concerts
in several OF them. OF late years, as
everybody knows, Mr.. Gilmore was
identified with the summer concerts at
Manhattan Beach.

At the New California Messrs. Hallen

Ii. Grattan Donnelly's Later On" Mon
day. May 2. they will be succeeded by
George II. Jessop's and Aug. Pitou's Amer
lean play, "The Power OF the Press" said
to be the best since shenandoah" This
play illustrates the immense influence
welded by the newspaper press in this day
and country, an Influence which. as repre-
scented IN this drama, Is almost invariably
eXerted on the side of right and justice, ana
IN defense of the weak and helpless. The
main incident on which the play is founded
actually occurred in New York City and
was fully reported by the press. THE
Power of the Press" is purely local drama
and every scene and character will be
readily recognized by all who are familiar
with New York City. We are shown the
elegant new home IF the Manhattan Ath-
letic Club and the poor tenement dwelling
OF the nottingham. We see a great indus
try. shipbuilding yard in full operation
and a wharf on the East River with all the
shipping; We are also taken 10 the hand
