Crop Prospects In Europe.

LONDON, April 25.-The dryness OF
the weather in western Europe during
the last eight weeks is causing excep-
tional anxiety among the grain grow
ers. England has suffered much, al
though less than France. In the Beauce
district, known as the granary of Paris,
wheat is whitening and dying. In the
northern departments the beet root
crop is dying. On the other hand, the
vines in the wine-growing districts are
fiourishing and especially in the cham
payne province promise splendid
vintage.

NOTED MURDER CASE.
Two Wealthy Men Charged with Drag
ging Woman to Death.

ST. LOUIS, Oct. 3O.-To-say there was
called for trial for the fourth time in the
Criminal Court the case wherein Alex and
Louis Landau, two wealthy merchants, are
charged with murder in the second degree
in causing the death of Miss Augusta
Lowell. The tragedy resulting in the death
of the lady Of the most noted in
the criminal history of st. Louis, and the
arrest of the Landaus two years later for
the crime, and the charges of conspiracy
now made by them, with the counter
charge made against them by the prosecu-
ton Of spiriting away witnesses, have made
the case sensational in the extreme Miss
Lowell, a teacher in the Normal School,
met her death in a horrible manner on
Dec. 2, 1890. While crossing Grand and
Delmar avenues, shortly before dusk, she
was run into by a horse attached to a
buggy in which two men were seated
Without stopping to see whether the wom-
an was injured of the men whipped
the horse and drove rapidly away. The
unfortunate woman'S clothing became en-
tangled in the vehicle, and she was dragged
eight blocks before being freed. When
picked up by persons who had seen the ac-
cident and followed the buggy, Miss Lowell
was unconscious, and died several hours
later at the City Hospital. No trace of the
men in the buggy could be found. Two
years later Chief Harrigan was informed
that young Louis Landau, a nephew of the
man now charged with the crime a clerk
in the Chemical National Bank, had stated
to several persons that his uncles were
the men who were so long sought for.

Novel Case Growing Out Of Failure of a

MEMPHIS, Tenn, Oct. 30.-A case is on

charged with embezzling the funds of the

the charter OF the company had not been
filed with the Secretary of State or regis

IL had no legal existence in Tennessee. The
Attorney-general desired to nolle prosequi

verdict of acquittal must follow. under the
law. The point has been decided by the SUI

This means that foreign corporations that

against delinquent agents. and il is claimed
by eminent legal opinion that contracts

TO SUCCEED COLBERT
George w. Powell Appointed
Superintendent Of Police.
Pendergrast for Building Inspector,
KOehne for Marketmaster and
BrittOn for Weighmaster.

George W. Powell has been named by
the Board of Public Safety as the new
superintendent of police to succeed Thomas
F. Colbert The appointment was an
nounced late yesterday afternoon and ere
ated universal surprise. as his name had
never been mentioned as one of those be-
ing considered for the position. For several
days past the knowing ones said the ap-
pointment would go to one of two men,
but in this instance the knowing ones did
not know.
About o'clock yesterday afternoon Mr..
White, of the Board of Safety, was leaning
against desk in the room of the board.
1t was in the twilight, and the few Office
seekers in the corridor had no idea that any
appointments would be made, but by and
by President Ruckle dropped in and the
gas was lighted. A telephone message
brought Mr.. Conner to the office. and the
full board was soon a-meeting. 1.-THE object
Of this meeting remarked Colonel Ruclxle,
with side glance at the door leading out
into the corridors where the office seekers
had been accustomed to throng, ''is to de-
termine on few of the appointments this
board is to make. The first thing. 1 sup
pose, in order would be to accept the resig-
nation of Superintendent Of Police Colbert"
Mr.. Conner moved that the resignation be
accepted, and Mr.. White seconded the mo-
tion., the resignation to take effect this
evening. President Ruckle and Mr.. Conner
scrutinized sheet of paper which the pres
ident brought from his inside pocket. Mr..
Conner finally took the paper and began to
read off the names that had been deter
mined upon for few of the offices.
For superintendent of police, George w.
Powell read Mr.. Conner. II move that he
be elected to fill the vacancy caused by SUI
perintendent Colbert's resignation Messrs.
Ruckle and White Joined Mr.. Conner in vot-
ing aye.
After the board adjourned, Mr.. Con-
ner, of the Board of Public Safety was
seen by reporter and talked freely of the
action Of the board and the considerations
which had led them to make the appoint
Inent. Mr.. Conner said: 1.-The starting

CLIFFORD RAN WE'LL
Easily Captured the $4,000 Prize
at Hawthorne Park.
70 Tambien, the FavOrite, Beaten Fif-
teen Lengths and Lamplighter Left
Behind Thirty-Five Lengths.

CHICAGO, Oct SO.-Clifford won easily
at Hawthorne this evening I'm the sweep
stakes mile and one-quarter race. in which
he, Yo Tambien and Lamplighter fought
for the $1,000 prize. For the first half Yo
Tambien, the favorite kept her glistening
chestnut coat in the lead, but from the
three-quarters post Clifford had 1t just to
suit him, and went under the wire in 2:O9a4,
with Yo Tambien fifteen lengths away and
with Lamplighter twenty lengths behind the
mare.
1t took twenty minutes to get the horses
started, for Yo Tambien, usually so obedi-
ent, was acting wickedly. But at last the
red flag went down, and with splendid
speed the horses came toward the stand.
AS they passed the judges stand Yo Tam
bien showed three-quarters of length
ahead of Clifford, with Lamplighter a half
length behind. At the quarter the mare
had kicked a full length between herself
and the bay colt, and Lamplighter was two
lengths to the rear. But as the horses
neared the half Clifford gained rapidly,
and as they passed the mark the two were
racing neck and neck, with Lamplighter
clear out of it Clifford gained steadily I'M
til, when the stretch was reached, he was
two lengths ahead of the mare. and fin
ished with Yo Tambien fifteen lengths be-
hind him and Lemplighter twenty lengths
further back in the procession.
When the race was over Mr.. Walbaum
said that he intended to take Lamplighter
thing on this track. L did not expect to
win," he said. Yo Tambien's friends
claimed that her edge was taken off by the
special race Saturday, and that had the
big race been run then the result would
have been different. Clifford's hackers were
loud in their praise of the three-year-old
son of Rrambie and not without reason
for his performance this evening was a
splendid one. With track that was esti-
mated to be two seconds slow the time was
unusually good. The sectional time shows
