A NEWSPAPER WAR.
Big Family Fight Over the st. Louis Post.
Dispatch.


Differences of opinion have led to n
bitter war between Joseph Pulitzer,
proprietor CT the New York World and
chief owner of the st. Louis Post Dis
patch, and Colonel Charles III. Jones
editor and general manager Of The Pest
Dispatch
Last weca Colonel Jones applied for
an injunction restraining the board of
directors from interfering with his con
troll OF The Post-Dispatch. Judge Woods
granted IL temporary restraining order.
and the matter will come up OH Sept. 30
The trouble originates over the change
IN the editorial policy of tho paper,
which formerly advocated Sound
money but, under Colonel Jones
management. has championed bemetal-
lism BY All agreement with Joseph
Pulitzer, i'll February last. Colonel
Jones bought IL one. sixth interest in ty,o
paper and was given absolute control
for five years.
He claims that Mr.. Pulitzer has yio
lated the terms of tho contract

editor of The Post Dispatch, how an
editorial writer Of The World was in

This naturally caused considerable
comment, and, among other suggestions
and snrnlises. 1t WAS given out that Colo
mel Dillon went to 81. Louis in the in
forests of Mr.. Puli;zer's paper. whose
traditional character Editor Jones has
been charged with changing, and whose
principles the same accuser, The World.
said hc had abandoned.
The startling rumUr is banded ubout
that Colonel Dillon went to St. Louis

KANGAROO PUT TO DEATH
Zoo Officials Pitied the Poor Old
Homesick Animal.
Drugs Concealed in Cornuc opia
Which Was Slipped Over Her Nose.
Died in an Erect Posture.

The Oldest Kangaroo at The Zoo was put
to death officially yesterday afternoon by
| Mr.. Joseph Palmer, taxsderr-.st OF tie
National Museum. This unfortunate exile
from Australia has of late excited the SYM
pathy of the hundreds of thousands of Wis
itors to the Geological Gardens. In her
extreme old age she began to pine for her
native land, she grew sick, her hair began
to turn very grey. and thin, and otherwise
she presented pitiable spectacle.
II occurred to the officers OF the museum
that this lonesome kangaroo that was not
thing of beauty and could not be Joy for
ever, ought to be hastened into the heaven Of
her kind and kindred
Her taking off was performed in a most
singular manner, one which is infinitely
superior To electrncution, hanging. or
drowning. The official eXecutioner OF this
| pet kangaroo of the nation used chIorofurm
and it is reported that the poor exile died
with the fumes of death in her lungs and a
smile of gratitude on her elongated face.
The process was as ingenious as it was
effective. The assistants OF the taxidermist
entered the cage OF the superannuated kan
garoo. They had in their hands me of these
cornucopia bags, which the kangaroo sup
posed to be bag of bon bons. She rose to
the occasion, sat on her tail, and extended
| her abbreviated fore paws for thepiuusfraud.
She dipped her nose into the bag and
went up against sponge saturated with
chloroform and ether. In a moment she
forgot everything but her native land.
She embraced the bag with her little
arms and tried to embrace the nearest ex-
ecutioner.
As the volatile essences did their work
very rapidly, she only had time to back
up against the grating, hold out her arms
i'll token of forgiveness and died with q
smile.
As the corpse was being taken out the
Royal Bengal tiger uttered an angry protest,
and the elephants also trumpeted their
grief. The lioness woke upas the procession
went by and merely remarked 90 the hyena
before she went to sleep again that the
kapgaroo's love for chocolate drops gave
her dead away.
The head OF the deceased was taken to
the museum yesterday, where they will
make it a new body and it will live again.

WHITE TEACHERS OPPOSED
Their Treatment of Colored School
Children Under Fire.
Potomac Conference Regards the Dis
trict School Syst EN- as Perfect, ,and
Advises to Model After It.

The second days session of the Potomac
District of the baltimore Annual Confer
ence, a. n. E. Church, was held yesterday
street, between d and E streets, southwest,
as stated in The Evening Times.
After religious exercises the committee
on the conditions of the public schools made
their report, which dweit particularly
op the schools OF Maryland.
The report stated that the school sys-
tenn in that State was imperfect and should
be conducted so that the question of color
could be laid aside.
1.-The schools of Washington are in a
most perfect condition." it said, ''and the
ministers of the Gospel should make de-
mands upon the authorities for the same
facilities for colored scholars as are given for
white
j. W. Martin addressed the conference on
the report of the committee. He said
the blame should lie laid largely at the
doors of the parents of colored children
for the inferiority of the coiorcd schools.
II the proper effort was made by parents
more good could be accomplished in secur-
ing what justly belongs 10 the colored child
United efforts In Baltimore proved effec-
tUal
Mr. Martin expressed as his opinion that
colored schools should be taught 10y colored
teachers The white teachers, lie thought,
were not the ones 10 control colored chill
dren.
He closed by saying that, although the
white teachers made their bread by teach
ing colored children, yet they would not
speak TO them on the streets. Thus chill
dren are taught to believe that they are
inferior beings.
j. W. Brown made a brief address. in
which he cOntcnded that the reason the
colored schools do not receive the atten-
ton they should is owing to the indiffer-
ence on the part OF the parents OF culored
children
The colored people left the question OF
going to school to the children themselves.
Let the Commissioners having charge of
the schools in Maryland see that there is
q desire on the part of the children to at
tend schools, and then they will do every
may desire.
Several additional reports were sub
mittcd, among which were 1.-The require
mcnts of the Sabbath Schools" Does
the work of the A. NJ. E. Church require
the election OF more bishops?" what are
the evidences of our progress in Business?'
"The means necessary to make the churches
more prosperous financially" lis vital
piety in the decline in the Christian church,"

Messrs. Somow and DeMeck, the newly
appointed first and second ecretaries
respectively of the Russian legation, are
in the city.
Both gentlemen narrivcdin theUnited States
some weeks ago, but have employed the
interval in visiting the different points
OF interest in the country. Mr.. Somow
succeeds Mr. RaDgdanoff. who committed
suicide last winter, while Mr.. DeMeck, who
has been heretofore connected with the
foreign office at st. Petersburg, is the
successor OF Mr. BotkiDe, who has been
transferred to Hesse Darmstadt.
Prince CantacuZene, the Russian minister
TO Washington, who has been absent in
Europe since last April, sailed from H amburg
yesterday afternoon arriving in Washington
about ten days hence. His stay here willbe
limited to fc W weeks, sufficiently to enable
him to arrange his personal affairs and
present his letters of recall to the State
Department. While the fact has not been
officially promulgated, 1t is well understood
that Prince Cantacuzene will in future bo
located at Stuttgart, and that thissuccessora
Washington will be the present Russian
minister in this city, Mr.. DeKotzebue.
Some surprise has been manifested in
the social and political circles of Washing
ton at the transfer of Prince Cantacuzene
from an important post like Washington
to q second-rate continental city, and 1t
has been intimated that the transfer was
not altogether to Prince Catacuzenes lik
Ing The truth is that Prince Catacuzene
personally requested that he be sent to
Stuttgart in order that his daughter might
be educated there and make her debut in
Russian society. which would. OF course.
