Knives and Pistols Drawn ut a Poll
ing Place In ST. LOuis.

A riot broke out at one of the polling
places in the seventh ward of st. Louis yes
terday, where republican primaries were
being held for the selection of delegates to
the republican city and twelfth district con-
gressional conventions.
Knives and pistols were drawn, and for
a time 1t looked as if there might be blood
shed, but nobody received more than
bruises. Fifty or more police officers ap-
peared on the scene and quelled the riot
arresting Tom Maloney, one of the leaders
of the gang which caused the trouble, and
nine or ten other en-. Several other lead
ers escaped during the confusion
1t seems that the riot commenced when
a, Fl. Luster drove up to the polling place
with a shotgun, announced himself an A.
Z. A. and said he was afraid of nobody.
Another version Is that lie damned the A.
P. A, and said he was ready to fight any
member of that organization. His remarks
whatever they were, incensed the crowd,
and a rush was made for him. He drove
off and escaped, but the trouble continued.
The men who were later arrested at
tackled a number of negroes. who had al
ready voted, or wto were waiting TO do so,
for the reason. it is said. that they Were
supporting A. p. A. candidates.

JUST FORTY-FIvE MEN
The Number Actually at Work on the
Post Office Today.
This Includes the New Water Boy
Work Has Been Begun on
the Blue Derrick.

The new water boy on the post Office build
ing has caught on 20 the methods and
ways Of work there with zest that Is
truly promising. He has learned to climb
the long inclines that lead from the ground
to the upper regions of the building without
batting his eye or missing a step. He has
found the means of balancing himself on the
edge of the walls. He has also found the
way to a PARKWAY well, where he
plenishes his bucket. With rare art he has
chosen well that is so far away that Il
takes him just quarter of an hour TO make
the round trip. In view, therefore. of these
accomplishments he can no longer be ex-
cluded from the daily census on account Of
his inexperience. He has achieved the post
office gait quicker than the average work
man who goes on the job,

Including him, there were 'forty-nve at

lusty and thirsty. They contained within
their bones and sinews the power to build
that structure all by themselves, even with
the questionable aid OF the supervising
architect of the treasury They might get
1t done as early as September II, AID. 1855
or Pc. q. But they would have to be given
all the leeway I'm the case and allowed to
work through rain and shine and on holi-
obstacles OF the customs of the country
must be placed In their way.
The marvellous luck OF the contractor
can be appreciated when IT is recalled that
there has been but one rainy day during
the past three weeks that has interfered
with his job, and on that day 1t was pos
sible Tor him to get some men to work In
the trench, which was muddy anyhow.
There Is now no prospect Of RAIN and the
Chances are that the average for the pres-
ent week will exceed that for the proceed
ing two weeks.
Work on the Blue Derrick.
Today work has actually been begun
on the blue derrick that has been kept
down for over six days on the first story
instead of being elevated to its proper
place on the top Of the third story frame
at the northeast corner. 1t is whispered
around the site that through some miscal-
culation there has been a delay in the ship
ment of certain stones that are designed
for this corner, so that the stone work
cannot be begun until they arrive. This
may account for the leisurely manner in
which this derrick has been handled. The
contractor for the brick work Is fretting
over the delay and wanders disconsolately
around the site with his hands in his pock-
cts and his Sunday clothes on, explaining
at odd moments TO his many dear friends
why he cannot hire them on the job.

THE MONEY CAME IN.
The Central Union Mission Will Have
joyful Anniversary

III mas been known for some time past to
the friends of the Central Union Mission
that the financial outlook was not cheerful
especially about the LIST of the present
month, when a large amount was due on
account of ma;ured notes and interest, a
part OF the debt on the building. The mon
ey for current expenses had not come in
and there was ia deficiency in that fund
The accounts of the industrial department
also showed gap between the income and
outgo. The facts were made widely known
and the directors used every effort to Sc
cure the necessary funds
The gratifying statement is now made
that all the money needed to meet the in
deptedness has been received, and that, in
addition. money had come in sufficient to
MAKE up the deficiency in the current ex-
penses ana also to go some way in proVid-
ING Tor the lack III the fund Tor the indus
trial department. The money come in so
unexpectedly, and from so many sources,
that the members of the board OF directors
say themselves that they do not know
where it came from. 1t seems that people,
recognizing the emergency and appreC .ng
the good work which the mission is ling,
sent in generous checks without sohcita-
ton. The mission Will be able to celebrate
its anniversary, as has been its custom in
the past, entirely free from current debt.
The anniversary exercises VIII be neld next
sunday. lntfe VIII DE service IN the
auditorium of the mission in the afternoon,
which is specially designed for those who
are accustomed to attend the mission meet
ings. Addresses are expected from Rev.
DIR. Mackay Smith, the rector of St. Johns
Churcn; Rev. Or. Hamlin, pastor of the
Church of the Covenant, and Rev. Dr. Hugh
Thompson, pastor of The Metropolitan NJ. L.
Church.
In the evening the public anniversary ex-
ercises will be held at the New York Ave
nue. Church. At that meeting an effort will
be made to give the public an idea of the
work accomplished by the mission. There
will be reports from the various officers and
branches of work. The converts of the mis-
sion will be called upon to give their ex-
periences, and a number of the pastors of
city churches will make addresses
