One of the most profitable and least
deserving forms Of beggary In the larger
cities is that piled by those miserable
locking creatures that crouch on the
corners of fashionable and busy thor
oughfares playing cheap and wheezy
musical instruments. They muster
strongest in cold weather, and at all
times they seem to respect one anoth-
er's territory. Some Of them have died
worth thousands Of dollars. Their har-
vest is especially rich in shopping hours
and in the holiday season, when thou
sands of country folk, to whom the
theat, ical misery Of these mendicants
is unfamiliar, drop pennies, dimes and
even larger coins into the waiting cup.
When death or voluntary retirement
takes one OF these beggars from prof
table territory the vacancy is at once
filed by another forlorn object. Any
observant person may detect beneath
the rags Of many professional beggars
evidence Of abundant warm clothing.

nu-,o.,ties Abaut SNOW.

The pure white luster of snow is due
10 the fact that all the elementary
colors Of light are blended together In
the radiance that is thrown off from
the surface of the various crystals.
More than thousand distinct and per
feet forms of snow crystals have been
enumerated and figured by the various
investigators in that line. One hundred
and ffty-one different forms were once
observed by the English scientist,
Glashier, who carefully made engrav-
ings of each and printed them in q
paper attached TO the report OF the
British Meteorological society for the
year 1855.

The supreme court has decided that
$25 a day is too much to impose upon a
travelling man to sell goods in an incer'
porated village, town or city. A munich
pal officer is supposed to use discretion in
such cases, but still we are unable to sec
where any injustice is done to the travel
ing iunketer. Our business men pay the
taxes to keep the town running and should
be entitled to all of the patronage that the
surrounding country will afford and not o'
,ntertered with by individuals attempting
20 dispose Of inferior grades of goods.

Governor Mckinley had been loaning

Then the governor ascertained that his
name appeared on Walkers paper for
more shan 100000 instead Of about $l5-

was paying up previous obligations and
wanted his name for that purpose only
But he was deceived and the result is his

SERIOUS CHARGE MADE
BY His Creditors Against ROsen-
baum's Business Meth
DDS.
Probable That a Warrant for HIS
Arrest Will Be Is
suod.

1t is claimed by the representatives or
the creditors of Samuel Rosenbaum, the
East Seventh street dry goods merchant,
whose name has been mentioned in the
courts frequently OF late, that he will be
prosecuted on charges more serious
than those of a civil nature. 1t is au-
thoritatively stated that he will be ar
rested on the charge of larceny.
This is supposed to be in consequence
of the freely spoken advice of Judge
Egan, that it would be the proper thing
for the grand jury to take the actions of
Mr.. ROSenbaum under consideration
and an investigation made OF the pc
cular business methods in vogue in his
establishment, as shown by the eyl-
dence of the creditors. From the pa
perS On file in the court and the state
ments of those who are interested In the
case, it is learned that for some time
detectives in the employ of ThieFs de-
tective service have been at work on
the case. resulting in some astonishing
disclosures. The evidence OF the men
who have worked OIL the case shows
! that, to say the least, the business meth
ods of the RoSenbaumS have been of a
| startlIngly unusual character.
| During the month of August Samuel
| Rosenbaum purchased large quantities
of goods from various firms in st. Paul
and other cities and shortly afterwards
failed with liabilities largely i'll excess
of the assets of the firm. The thousands
of dollars worth of goods which had
been recently purchased were not to be
| found and the creditors were puzzled.
Snow. Church Il Co., representatives OF
the creditors, placed one OF the Thiel
detectives to work on the case and he
soon reported that large quantities OF
goods had been taken from the store al
3O5 East Seventh street and shipped
away. He soon traced them to St
James, Mimi. Following up this clue
he found that store had been opened
at st. James during the first part o.
September and that it had been stocked
with goods which had arrived but few
days before from St. Paul. The pack
ing cases in which the goods had ar
rived had been marked to ST. Paul, hu
the marks had been scratched out ant

CARS ALL ABLAZE.
Russian Railway Train Filled
With Recruits Burns While
at Full Speed.
Forth-Nine Men Killed and TWen-
ty-Five Injured by Burning
and Jumping.

ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. IA fatal
railroad accident occurred today on the
line between SlatouSk and Samara. A
train composed of several cars filled
with recruits was running from Sla-
tousk to Samara when lamp burst in
the first car. The train was going at
full speed and the fire swept back, and
in a few moments all the cars were
blazing. The engineer, for some un-
accountable reason, did not stop the
train until he had ran for considerable
distance. In the meantime there was a
scene of indescribable terror in the cars.
The recruits, or at least as many as
could, leaped from the windows and
doors. Many of them landed uninjured
in the heavy snow banks, while others,
who landed in the cleared track, were
killed. Those who were unable to get
out of the cars were burned to death,
for the train was entirely consumed.
Some of the men were terribly burned
before they jumped.
When the confusion had somewhat
subsidized the officer in charge of the re-
cruits, who saved himself by jumping,
called the roll of his men. 1t twas found
that forty-nine of them were dead and
twenty-five terribly burned Or other
Wise injured. A strict investigation
WlIlibe held to determine the cause of
the fire. 1t is supposed now that some
of the men in the forward err we're sky
larktng and upset the stove. The
draught caused by the onrushing train
caused the flames to spread with such
great rapidity that nothing could be
done to eXttnguish them. 1t is claimed
that the engineer was guilty of criminal
negligence in not stopping the train as
soon as he saw the fire. Had he done
so, the loss of life would have been very
small
St. Paul daily globe., 1893-01-18

employ of Rosenbaum at st. James were
found, and the evidence which they gave
was astonishing. They said that when
the goods were first unpacked there had
been about three dozen new trunks in
the stock. These trunks were filed, one
at a time. with the choicest goods in the
store, and the trunk would then be taken
to the depot. The man in charge of
the trunk would purchase ticket to
some small town in the vicinity or Min
neapolis and check the trunk on the
ticket to the place. The check would
then be sent by mail to the destination
of the trunk, where it-would be used by
the recipient. In this way the goods
were sent to various points out of the
reach of the creditors.
The Thiel man also discovered that
some of the goods in stock had been
packed in cases which were placed in
cellar and kept there until the assign
ment had been made. The goods were
then taken out and disposed Of in vari-
Gus ways.
In addition the detective learned that
Mr.. Rosenbaum had made proposal 10
one of the prominent citizens of st.
James to take possession of the store
and be given bill of sale for the entire
stock for the purpose OF eluding credit
ors. 1t was this evidence which caused
Judge Egan to state that it was case
for the grand jury to investigate.
Manager Cooley. of Thiels detective
service, was seen last evening by re-
porter for the GLOBE. He at first de-
MED the statement that he had made an
investigation, but OIL being confronted
with the above story he admitted that it
was true. 1t is expected that the WAR
rant will be issued for the arrest Of
1ROsenbaum today.
