besides that. the assistant district az
torney would step up into his place
before the public eye. He must find
some other way.
In his extremity, he determined 10
apply TO the Judge for a postponement
court. This would give him an oppor.
tunity 10 meet the bankers IN New
York, and still conduct the case. He
went at once TO the Judge and explain
ed that be had Just discovered a posi-
bic connection OF several other prom
inent persons with the wrecking Of
the Patton National bank, and that,
before he cross-examined jeremiah
Patton, he wished thoroughly TO In
vcstigate this evidence and fortify
himself with all the details. This
would take considerable time. Stet-
heImer strengthened his suggestion
with excellent arguments-it was a
matter OF the greatest public impor
lance; thousands of helpless deposit
tors relied wholly on the courts TO In.
sure the fidelity Of their bankers;
swift, complete, ruthless punishment
OF every person involved, high or low,
was their only safeguard. He wished
TO ferret out every one OF the GRIM
inals concerned. 20 run them down,
brand them as thieves, and hand them
over TO the warden OF the ~penitentiary,
and the Judge must give him ample
time In which to do this. In fact, II
was a duty owed 10 the whole peo-
pie OF Missouri. The judge decided
finally that, II these were the facts,
lie would direct a continuance upon
the motion Of the district attorney.
Stetheimer went then TO the attor.
neys for jeremiah Patton. He said to
them that his wife was III, threatened
with appendicitis. II was thought; that
he wished to take her st once to Phil
adelphis; that he would probably be
required to remain there during the
operation and the c~onvalescence OF the
patient. and requested them to consent
TO . postponement of the case until
the following term. The attorneys
c~ourteously expressed their regret,
but replied that this was q criminal
trial, and that they could not consent
TO. any order. no matter what. Still,
they could not Q how their client

talesmen; new panels were obtained
and almost wholly rejected. II seeroed
that every man in the city had o
ceivec an opinion against the prisoner.
Finally a curious medley Of Jurors was
secured. and the government began
the introduction Of its testimony.
Up TO this time, Mason had done
nothing. Now he sent for Jacob Col
meyer, a lawyer OF considerable prom
ircnce, and explained TO him what he
was TO do. know IN detail how Sol.
meyer carried out his Instructions:
He went at once 10 ST. Louis and
called On the district attorney. Ik
explained that certain large operation

the big frrns In a certain line In the
west into one gigantic company with a
hundred million dollar capitalization,
under the laws OF New Jersey; that
the matter was still In an early, for
native state. The bankers who were
70 furnish the large sums necessary
TO purchase such plants as would not
voluntarily come into the trust. feared
that some unfriendiy district attorney
might attempt to bring the matter In
10 court, and thereby affect the bonds
OF this syndicate. which they would
hold az their security. II. however,
the principal Office OF this great pro-
jected company could be placed In
some large city OF the west. where the
district attorney OF the United States
was a person OF conservative ideas.
they would furnish the money; other
wise they would not. Bolmeyer rep
resented these bankers, and this was
the problem they had presented to
him for solution. He had gone care
fully over the entire field, and finally
settled upon the district attorney OF
ST. Louis as filling every requirement
Of HIS clients. II no could act,
solmeyer would pay him Ave thousand
dollars as q retainer; then. when the
bankers held their meeting In New
York, ne could come before them and
arrange about his annual retainer.
The size of this annual retainer Sol
meyer hesitated to suggest. but In
timated something In the ncighbor'
hood of twenty thousand dollars.

Passenger Train No "a Crash.
ed lnto Cut Of Cars
engineer RanahaD was Killed
Amest instantly


Baltimore 4 Ohio passenger train
No. IA, due In Mt. Vernon at 7:to
o'clock was side-swiped by a cut Of
freight cars in the Chicago junction
yards early Thursday morning and
Mr.. Charles E. knerr, railway mail
clerk, Of No. 10 Prospect street, this
city, was badly injured. Engineer Ran.
han was instantly killed and Fireman
Leland was seriously hurt, both legs
being cut off.
The passenger train, east bound,
was running at a good rate of speed
and was just entering the east limits
of the Chicago Junction yards when
the wreck occurred. A cut of cars
was being run into an open switch
from the main track and the engineer
did not have time to check his train
after the danger was discovered. The
engine crashed into the cars and was
thrown from the track.
The mail car was derailed and
Clerk Knerr injur,d. Immediately af.
ter the wreck had occurred Engineer
Leland and the fireman were pulled
out Of the debris. The former was
dead at the time while the latter had
lost both of his legs in the accident.
The train was running close to its
time and the catastrophe was the
cause of carelessnes. The passenger
coaches were not wrecked and none
of the passengers were injured to
any extent although many received
a general shaking up.
Knerr was brough to Mt. Vernon
on train No. 4, due here at 1880, and
was taken directly to his home where
surgical attention was rendered. His
injuries will not not result seriously
Trains on the Sandusky division
were not affected, but all running on
the Chicago division were held up
for number of hours.

"a NJ. CROUCH, Democratic

SE6A NJ. CROUCH, Democratic
Candidate for Probate Judge.
Doubtless never before in the his.
tory of Knox county has candidate
been presented for probate Judge who
is SO well equipped for the Office as is
Seba NJ. Crouch, the Democratic candi-
date this year. This is saying a great
deal, but the facts fully warrant the
statement
When Pat. Berry became probate
Judge he selected as his deputy clerk
Seba M. Crouch after a careful in.
vestigation Of the qualifications of sew
eral available persons for the position,
and the results fully justified his judg.
ment in making the choice. In the ex.
cellent record Pat Berry has made in
the Office much of the credit is due to
Seba Crouch. who has proven valua.
BILE assistant to him in the work per.
tanning to the Office proper as well as
In matters relating to the important
juvenile court, which was established
under Berry, and which has been such
potential factor for good in dealing
with unfortunate youths. Too much
credit can not be given to Mr. Crouch
for his valuable aid in making the pro.
bate judges office such a great success
as it has been under Berry
Upon becoming clerk in the pro-
bate judges Office Mr.. Crouch took up
the study of law, the better to equip
himself for the discharge of the duties
of his position, devoting his evenings
to a diligent study Of 1t. When he
presented himself for examination be-
fore the supreme court of Ohio he
passed the test with a high grade in
all branches and was admitted to the
bar He is thus not only familiar with
the principles of the law. but his ex-
perience in the Office has given him
knowledge of the practical workings
and requirements of the Office that rem
der him exceedingly well.equipped to
perform the duties of probate Judge
and continue the office on the high
plane of efficiency that has character
ized Pat. Berry's administration of it,
Under the election law. requiring
the names of candidates for all offices
Of judge to appear on separate bal
lot, the Office of probate Judge is in
cluded. and there will be nothing on
the ballot to designate the party poll
tics of the candidates, and an x mark

At the coming election the names
of candidates for the various judicial
Offices, viz: Supreme, circuit. common
pleas and probate Judge, will not be
found on the regular ballot, but will
be placed on a separate ballot, which

The names of all candidates for
each judicial Office will appear one aft.
er the other. They will be rotated In
the printing of the ballots, SO that no
name will occupy the same place on
the ballot. There will be no party
emblem or other designation on the
ballot whereby the politics of a can
didate may be known.
There are numerous candidates for
some Of the Offices Of Judge, and in
order to enable voters to familiarize
themselves with the names of the
Democratic candidates, the form here
with given shows the names Of the
Democratic candidates with an X
mark In front Of each name.
This form may be taken into the
election booth by the voter as guide
in enabling him to identify the Demo
cratic candidates when he comes to
mark his ballot for candidates for

TO DENOUNCE
Cure Frauds 10 All Of The
Churches

From thousands Of pulpits in all
parts of the United States, fake cures
for consumption will be exposed and
denounced on tuberculosis Day, Octo.
ber 9th. This is part Of the pro-
gram for the movement announced
by the National Association for the
Study and Prevention of Tuberculo-
sis.
Literature giving information on
fraudulent and alleged cures" for
consumption will be sent to clergy.
men all over the county, and an or.
ganized crusade against the traffic in
these drugs and devices will be insti.
tuted. The literature will be sent to
ministers either directly from the Ma.
tional Association ONCE in New York
or through the many state and local
anti-tuberculosis associations scatt.
tered throughout the country. 1t is
estimated that over 10000 clergymen
will be reached in this way.
From actual records on file In the
office Of The National Association, It
Is estimated that the volume of bust.
ness done annually by the various
concerns who sell fake remedies for
tuberculosis amounts to well over
$15,OO0,000. The number of these
remedies now being used as SO called
cures" Is over 500
Three classes of cures" are dis.
tinguished by the National Associa-
tion. In the first class are included
hundreds of devices and drugs which
can be bought for any sum ranging
from ten cents to five dollars at a
drug store. The second class of
cures includes the institutes.
professors, or companies of doc
tors" who for consideration guar.
antee to cure consumption by some
secret method of which they are the
sole proprietors. There are nearly
one hundred and fifty of these insti.
tute frauds in the United States,
cheating the people out of millions of
dollars annually.
In the third class of cures" are
placed number of homemade rene.
dies, which either through ignorance
or superstition have been advanced
as treatments for tuberculosis. Some
OF these are onions, lemons, rattle.
snake poison, coal dust, lime dust,
pigs blood, dog oil, milk "strippings."
and even alcohol.
None OF these remedies will cure
consumption. declares The National
Association. No drug. gas or other
material has yet been discovered,
which, when eaten, inhaled or inject.
ed into tho system, will kill the germs
of tuberculosis without doing serious
injury to the body The only real cure
for tuberculosis recognized by The
National Association consists of the
combination of fresh air, good food,
and rest taken under the direction of
a competent physician.
