was known as the British monitor
Scorpion, and she had been under the
British flag since 1865. She was built
in England for the Confederacy in
1868, and carried four powerful guns in
her two turrets. She was regarded as
Il most formidable engine of war in
those days, and her construction caus-

vetoed the eight-hour law for public

defeat its own purpose by making in
some instances public works so costly

THE PISTOL CARRYING PRACTICE.


According to such high authority as
Judge Mcmahon Of the Court of GEN
eral Sessions of New York, the
pistol carrying practice is greatly on
the increase in that city. 1t is related
that a few days ago the foreman of
the grand jury came into the court
room with a pistol concealed in his
pocket, and. having occasion to speak
to the judge, hid his revolver under his
chair. He became so confused over the
fact that he was violating the law in
having a pistol concealed that he left
the court room without the weapon.
To the jury, one day last week, Judge
Cowing of the same court, after he had
sentenced a man to the fomps for
ten days for carrying a concealed wea-
pom, said:
1 do not know how you feel about
it, gentlemen, but l have very strong
feeling about these loafers who go
around armed with deadly weapons. In
ninety cases out of hundred, If |
caught man carrying a revolver, If
the law permitted me- l would send
him to Sing Sing for ten years. Peo-
pie who are legally entitled TO carry
them seldom do. 1t is generally the
loafer who is found with concealed
weapons. 1t Is an alarming fact that
to-day more New York people are
carrying revolvers in their pockets
than has ever been the case before.
The majority of them are young men.
Ten years in states prison for carry
ing concealed weapons would be a Sc
we're sentence, but the foregoing ex-
preston of the judge shows that he
realizes that the pistol carrying prac-
tice is becoming a great evil in New
York city-an evil that must be dealt
with severely in order to check the
many crimes for which it is RESPONSE
BILE
1t seems strange that i'm the me-
tropolis of the country the practice Of
carrying concealed weapons is so gen
eral as Judge Cowing's statement in
dicates. We know. of course. that in
the sparsely settled sections of the
West the practice of carrying concealed
weapons still exists to some extent
but there is absolutely no excuse for
It in New York city Does IL exist
there because the people of that city,
owing to the character OF the immi-
grafton, are becoming more lawless :?
There is some reason OF course. for
It. There ought to be vigorous war
waged on the practice IN all parts OF
the country. II is responsible for a
very large part OF the homicides. and
perhaps for many Of the lynehings.

There is a widespread belief that
therefore health. Accepting this as a
settled fact, it is announced that the
University of Wisconsin is seriously
considering the advisability of estab-
fishing a chair of fun; a chair whose
function and duty it will be to teach
the students how to originate and APP
preciate wholesome humor. We believe
1t will be a good thing. Too few people
know how to tell a good story, and
probably as few know how to enjoy a
good story when it is we'll told. There
are certain old saws that can be de-
pended on to grind out a perfunctory
laugh; but in most instances the cac-
elimination is complimentary merely.
Even when something really bright has
been gotten off-perchance by acct
dent-the laugh is of that peculiarly
wooden sort that makes the narrator
sorry he spoke" If the University of
Wisconsin can possibly bring about a
revival of wit and a regeneration of
the appreciation of wit, it will have
accomplished a prodigeous task.
A great surgeon, like a great special
list in any other line Of endeavor, may
expect to encounter criticism. Thus
it was not unexpected that Prof
Adolph Lorenz of Vienna should have
had his work in this country adverse
ly commented on by members of his
profession. Recently it was said that
his operation on the little Armour child,
whom he came to America to treat, had
not been successful This report is
denied by physicians of Milwaukee,
Prof. Lorenz's friends, who point cut
that the Viennese surgeon operated
only on one hip of the little girl, the
other having been previously treated
by American surgeons. They also
quote the family of the child as say
ing that she is now able to walk free
ly, and even to run and play as other
children do, going up and down stairs
without difficulty. This would seem to
fully vindicate Dr. Lorehz.

heavy realizations, chiefly in the best
investment securities, caused a deE1or-
aliZation on the stock markets today,
almost amounting to a panic. Consols
once touched 8713, being a full point
beneath the lowest reached during the
Franco German war.
The heavy liquidation is said t. be
due to the needs of American financiers
and spectators. Great apprehension is
felt regarding the position on Wall
street and anxiety is entertained con-
corning the stock exchange settlement
here Wednesday. There are rumors of
probable failures, which. in the best
Informed quarters, however are said to
be exaggerated.
The slump in United States Steel
stock caused some anxiety as to irs
probable effect on Andrew Carnegie's
library endowments. 1t is stated, how
ever, that Mr.. Carnegie views the slump
with the utmost complacency. An APP
peal to him today on this subject elicit
ed the following response:
Mr.. Carnegie never owned any sec
ond mortgage bonds or shares of the
United States Steel trust. His bonds
are first mortgage bonds, covering all
the property, and are not quoted upon
the stock exchange"

kers employed are almost invariably at

The conditions which prompt the
liquidation and the probable limits of
its extent are consequently the sub
ject of grave disquiet and apprehen-
sion. 1t was the failure of stock-job-
bling operations that brought the early
selling, and the losses represented
were almost wholly on paper, as the
previous gains had been. But later
episodes represent the failure of en-
terprises in which extensive capital
had been embarked, at demonstrably
unproductive employment. Capital
thus sunk is capital lost.
Comptroller Ridgeley's opinions, ex-
pressed before the Maryland and
Washington bankers, that "a large per-
centage of the loaning power has gone
into unproductive interests formu-
1ates the dread of Wall street over the
iron and steel industries, the high in
terest rates, especially on mercantile
paper, and the eurtailment of produc-
ton in other lines, caused the fear that
overeXtenSion has spread to Industrial
and commercial lines, representing adj
ditional "unproductfve interests" to be
followed by liquidation and contrac-
ton.
The present course of the banks is
directed toward conserving the COM
mercial and industrial needs for cred
it's, and to this end they are inexora-
bic to all promotions and financing
projects. The miscarriage of these
projects is still the cause of most of
the liquidation.

the Industrial Trust Title and Savings
company, was today appointed receiver
for the Consolidated Lake Superior COM
pany by Judge Platt, in the United States
district court. His bond was placed at
$4,000. Judge Lynde Harrison, of this
city, counsel for the company, said the
company consented to the appointment of
the receiver.
The application for the receivership
was presented by Judge Walter c. Noyes,
of Noyes e Brandege, of New London. in
behalf of P. F. Rothermel, Jr.. Samuel NJ
Clement and Joseph De Funkin, of Phila-
delphia, attorneys for certain stockhold
ers 1t was set forth in the application
that the directors had failed to take up
New York; that the actual value of the
plant as expressed in the amount ex-
pended in buildings machinery and other
properties, Is far in excess of the amount
of the loan; that the stockholders fear that
II forced sale were allowed they would
lose the entire amount of their invest
ment. A receiver was therefore asked Ior,
and also a temporary injunction to pre-
vent the sale of the property under fore
closure proceedings.
Judge Lynde Harrison, counsel for the
company, presented a written statement
which, at his request, was read by Judge
Noyes, saying that the company admits
the truth of the allegations contained in
the complaint and consents to the appoint
issuance of an injunction to prevent the
sale of the property and to prevent the
issuance of suits against the receiver.
Judge Moves then suggested the ap-
and it was formally made by the court.
AS the company has no assets in this
state it was suggested that the bond
should be nominal, further proceedings to
be had in New York state.
NEW YORK, Sept. 2S.-Charles H.
Tweed, of Speyer & Co. said:
THE action of the Connecticut court
will not interfere with the sale of the
securities of the Consolidated cOmpanV

places the affairs of the company in the
hands of an individual No arrangements
have been made for postponing the SALE

looking for all summer
Explanations followed and it was
learned the two were uncle and neph-
ew. An estate was left them as the
only heirs, but could not be probated
until w. T. Berry was discovered or
proven to be dead.
The New Yorker had followed the
Des Moines man to the Pacific coast,
had traced his steps into the frozen
north, back to California and after
travelling all summer came to Des
MONIES to thus meet him on the street
Papers have been prepared, and the
estate will be settled in a few weeks
the Des Moines man receiving a hand
some sum.
w. T. Berry left his old home in
Gioversvllle, N. Y, February 3, 1886,
and went across the continent to San
Francisco, Cal. There he worked for
two years and then went to the Klon-
dixie, not for gold, for the discovery
mad not been made at that time, but
because he thought he could amass
wealth in the mercantile business there.
After two seasons he returned to Cali
fornia and engaged in the fruit rails
ing business. Then he came to Iowa.
and few years ago settled in Des
Moines. His fathers brother, getting a
clue to him, traced him over the course
of his career.
There was popularity in the will
OF Mr.. Berry's grandfather. 1t left the
property to be used by his heirs and
divided among their children, share
and share alike. Mr.. Berry. of Gloyers-
vile, has amassed quite a fortune of
his own, and having no heirs was anx-
1ous. if possible, to find one living.
Thus the search and the rather odd and
novel meeting in Des Moines.
