IN THE MOUND CITY. The President Heartily Welcomed to St. Louis, A POWDER MILL EXPLOSION. Serious Failure of Druggists in Pittsburg. TOO CARELESSLY WATCHING BIRCHALL ce apenas GOV. McKINNEY ABSENT. He Failed to Meet the Count of Paris Last Evening. Special Dispatch to Tar EVENTNG STAR. Rienmoxp, Va., Oct. 11.—Gov. McKinney ‘was among those invited to meet the Count of Paris and hiscompanions at Col. Archer Ander- son’s last night, but did not attend. The count during the evening said that he would like to have met the governor. VISITING SEVEN PINES’ BATTLEFIELD, RicuMoyp, Va., Oct. 11.—The Count of Paris and party, most of them on horseback, left Richmond at 9 o'clock this morning for a visit to the battlefield of Fair Oaks or Seven Pines, going by way of Savages Station to Frayseit farm and White Oak Swamp and returning to this city by the Charles City road, ecw tase ES AT THE MOUND CITY, Arrival of the President and Party at St. Louis. Sr. Lovis, Mo., Oct. 11.—The President ar- rived in St. Louis at 9 o'clock this morning. The departure from Kansas City last night was marked by a stupid piece of mismanagoment, which camo very near dividing the party into two sections, The President was in the first carriage that drove from the Commercial Club reception st the board of trade to the station. Several members of bis party had not attended the reception and they were on the c ait ing his coming. Others of the party, among them Private Secretary Halford, were in the carriages behind that of the President, A STUPID BLUNDER. As the President and Secretary Tracy mounted the steps of the Haslemere the di- vision superintendent of the Wabash gave the signal for the train to start, and before tho President was fairly on the platform of the car the train was moving through the railroad yard on its way to St. Lous, Mr, Halford’s absence was noticed before the train had gone far, and the President cried: “Stop this train.” The President's colored yalet, Charlie Laurie, jumped for the bell rope and hung on to it but the train kept right on. The bell rope apparentiy was not connected. Mr. Bishop ran forward into Superintendent Magee’s car and pulled the rope there and again without result. It was not until the bell rope in the third car was pulled that the train was stopped. It was then backed into the sta- tion and the rest of the party was taken aboard, OLE ESSE BURST THEIR BOUNDS. Explosions at a Powder Mill and at Petroleum Works, Wirxesparre, Pa., Oct. 11.—The Corning mill connected with the largo Dupont powder works at Wapwallopen, seven miles below Shickshinny, was exploded with terrific force about7 o'clock this morning from some un- known cause, So far as can be ascertained no one was injured, although the explosion was felt in this city fully twenty-five miles distant. The loss to the mill and other property is said to be several thousand dollars. Panis, Oct. 11.—By an explosion of petro- Jeum in'a skittle alley at Soignelles, Depart- ment of Seine-Et-Marne, today, twenty-seven rsons were prostrated and several burned. any of the victims are dying. PITTSBURG DRUGGISTS FAIL, Their Doors Closed In Consequence of Unlucky Indorsements, Prrrspuro, Pa., Oct, 11.—The wholesale drag- gist, glass ware and paint establishment of John L, Dawes’ Sons & Co., Nos. 14 and 16 Wood street, was closcd last evening by the sheriff. The failure is a direct consequence of that of Fleming Bros., druggists, which was an- nounced a weck ago. Dawes’ Sons & Co. wero indorsers of Fleming Bros.’ notes in about 30,000. The firm yesterday confessed ment to ex-Postmaster John A. Miller for ¥12.000. Mr, Miller has been appointed trustee for the firm. Mr. Walters of the firm estimates the company’s assets at $13,000, He thinks the stock and outstanding bills due the company will more than pay the indebtedness, The firm has been in business in Pittsburg over twenty- five years. a TOO CARELESS OF BIRCHALL One of the Woodstock Jall Guards Discharged for Neglecting Duty. Woopsrock, Ont.. Oct. 11.—John Entwhistle, the guard who has been watching over Birchall ever since his confinement in jail, has been dis- charged. Juiler Cameron makes a practice of making a round of the jail onco or twice during every night sinco Birchall has been his charge.

Some of LBirchall’s friends in England are endeavoring to get parties here to getup a petition for a reprieve. Up to the present time tho judge's report of the trial as not reached the department of justice at Ottawa nor have any requests in favor of areprieve been re- ceived, ‘The step fora reprieve or commuta- tion of sentence may be taken at any time up to the date of execution, provided time sufti- cient is allowed for its consideration, WILL BURN WILL. THE How the Wishes of a St. Paul Million- aire Will Be Thwarted. Sr. Pavt, Mrxx., Oct. 11,—A sensation was created in business and social circles last night by the announcement that Mrs, Edward Lange- vin had refused to offer the will of her late husband for probate, although Mr. Langevin died three weeks ago. He left an estate valued at $4,000,000, divided pretty equally between ‘e children, with the exception of George . Langevin. his only son, whom he left nothing on account of his waywardness, It is stated that Mrs, Langevin, with the consent of all the children, will burn the will and allow young Langevin to come in for his full share of the estate under the common law. In Wall Street Today. New Yonx, Oct. 11.—The stock market this morning showed only a moderate business at the opening, and while first prices were gen- erally slight fractions higher thanlast evening's figures, the early trading resulted in the estap- lishment of small concessions of sugar re- fineries, losing 3¢, Lackawanna, North Ameri- can and C,,! , and St. Louis 1¢ per cent each, and the others insignificant fractions, As usual, however, when the pressure to sell was removed @ geueral reaction followed, and the early losses were recovered, with ad- ditions in some cases, Union Pacific, Burlington and the Wheeling and Lake Erie stocks bein, most prominent in the upward sorenesh, an all scoring net fractional gains, market became quiet to dull late in the hour, and while a firm tone wailed there was almost no movement in pr: and the dealings were JUSTICE MILLER IS DYING.” That is What Dr. Lincoln Told a Star Reporter Today. THE PATIENT SINKING FAST—A QUESTION OF FEW HOURS ONLY—AFFECTING SCENES AT THE BED- SIDE—THE ATTACK UNEXPECTRZD BY BI— AWAITING THE EXD. ‘One hour today has been but a replica of the others at the home of Justice Miller. Inside, in a chamber which will sopn be entered by death, lies the helpless victim of paralysis; outside is a stream of callers that display more than a little anxiety as to the condition of their friend, who is slowly but perceptibly traveling toward that supreme court where equity andlaw are harmoniously biended and from the decision of which there can be no appeal. Up to mid- night there was hope in the breasts of the watchers by the bedside of the paralytic; but as the sleep of the stricken one deepened and the breathing became more. stertorous those who saw the changes became convinced that the conditions which had seemed so full of promise were only the BEGINNING OF THE END. In the room were Dr. Cook and Prof. Thomas Wilson of the Smithsonian Institution. Chief Clerk McKenney of the Supreme Court had been there, but he had gone home when the sick man's stomach commenced to be trouble- some. At about 1 o'clock the justice vomited and the exertion was sufficient to make his weakness more apparent than at any previous period. Phlegm gathered in his throat in considerable quantity and caused much trouble, If the justice remained in his recumbent position there were symptoms of strangulation; therefore be had to be lifted up into a sitting posture. In this way much of the obstructive matter was removed, and when that had been accomplished a small dose of medicine was administered for the purpose of quieting the disturbed stomach. Everything was bolieved to depend on keeping the justice as stillas possible, fora recurrence of the cere- bral hemorrhage meant instant death. UNABLE TO TAKE NOURISHMENT. From 1 o'clock it was evident that there was little on which to base any reasonable hope for recovery, The nerves and muscles of the throat were much affected and all attempts to give the justice nourishment failed completely. Tho comatose condition was more Pronounced and there was a steady diminution of strength. Still there were slight evidences of semi-consciousness, Attimes the old gentleman would open his eyes and look at his attendants with a gleam of recognition. This became less frequent and just as the cool gray tints of early morning succeeded the artificial illumination in the room, just as the day was opening for the great majority of those who dwell upon this conti- nent, it closed for the almost motionless figure on the bed. Since then he has been totally ob- livious of all his surroundings and so he will probabiy remain until soul and body are sepa- rated. AN UNEXPECTED STROKE. ‘That Justice Miller had no immediate fears ofa paralytic stroke until within a minute of the blow is evident. He had been physically disturbed for about three weeke, but he was getting over that very rapidly. While in St. Louis about three weeks ago he was a sufferer from diarrhwa and continued to be so during his two weeks’ stay in that city. The trip homeward had, however, effectually checked that trouble and the justice was only somewhat and not unnaturally weak when ho arrived here. Day by day his strength increased and yesterday he dictated a letter to Mrs. Stocking, one of his daughters, now in Vienna, in which he spoke of his good health. The dictation was made to Mr. E. D. York, who has been the justice's secretary ever since the passage of the law authorizing such an appointment, When the —_justico left to go to the Capitol yesterday morning Mr. York had not more than half completed the task of writing out the letter, which wasa very long one. Yesterday after- noon when the justice was borne into his office that letter, awaiting his signature, was on his desk. It probably will never be signed, but must remain AN AFFECTING MEMENTO, an additional testimony as to the uncertainty of human existence. In that letter are the words: ‘Today I feel quite restored.” Mrs. Miller's condition has been distressing allday. Yesterday she bore up well, but the reaction has set in and her nerves are ina itiable state. She is completely prostrated. ler health 1s good, though, so there is no caus> for alarm. Mrs, Reeves, a relative of Mrs. Mil- ler’s, arrived this morning and is giving her whole attention to the task of calming the almost distracted lady. THE SCATTERED FAMILY. The only members of the justice's family here are his wife and son, the latter, Mr. Irvine Miller, being a well-known Chicago lawyer. Mrs. Touzalin, a daughter, is near Colorado Springs, where she resides, and so is Miss Lucy Corkhill, the justice’s granddaughter. The other daughter, Mrs. Stocking, is in Europe, in Vienna. Aliof these have been notified by telegraph of the sick man’s condition and either Mrs, Touzalin or Miss Corkhill will probably come on here as rapidly as possible. Mrs. Tou- zalin has a two-year-old child who is not in the best of health, so she may not be able to come. CALLERS HAVE BEEN VERY NUMEROUS at No. 1415 Massachusetts avenue, All the Supreme Court justices who «re in the city have been at the house at least once. A list of those who have personally made inquiry as to the condition of Justice Miller would iuciude the names of the most distinguished persons in the city. The presidential family was represented by Mrs, Dimmick, who climbed the steps to find out how things were and to convey to Mrs. Miller the sympathy felt by Mrs, Harrison and herself. A greut many telegrams have been received from all parts of the country. THE JUSTICE § OFFICE. Very dim was the light in the basement room which was used by the justice as his office. Roses and vines cling to the iron balcony on the floor above, and, swinging to and fro in the breeze, they make shadows that chase each other across the desk that shall never again be the business companion of the man who is un- consciously awaiting the call of his Creator. The bundles of papers are neatly arranged, the magazines are in two or three orderly litle heaps and alongside one of these were the heavily horn-rimmed spectacles which the justice always wore when he had to read or write. New and untouched is one large volume just where the right hand of one sitting im the big chair can reach it, On its cover in giit letters are the words, “Justice Miller, October term, 18.0.” It is the private docket which each member of the court hes okie possession and the lock which keeps its covers together may never be troubled by the key now tied to it by a scrap of twine, “JUSTICE MILLER IS DYING,” said Dr. Lincoln to a Star reporter at 1:45 this afternoon, The doctor had come directly from the presence of his distinguished patient. “He may live a few hours longer--even into the night—but that, I believe, will be the limit. He is in a pro- foundly comatose condition and there can be no rally, It is a question only of a few hours and there can be uo doubt as to the result.” es Marriage Licenses. Marriage licenses have been issued by the clerk of the court to the following: John D, Johnson and Mary D. Wise, both of Accomac county, Va.; John J. Farrell and Geneva Car- roll; Kobt.

TRE QUARTER-WILE RUN. Just then the band was playing the Dude's March, with its whistling accompaniment, and the crowd began to laugh. It eased the ten- sion of the atmosphere. The juarter mile was run in two trials and a in the first heat were Norton, M.A.C.; N.Y.AC. tes, N.Y.A.C.; Devereux, -A.C,; Cochrane, N.Y.A.C. 5 ie, M.A.C.; Marbury, Pa.C.

C., and Spencer, B. A. A. Dickinson was in the middle. The heat was not as close as the other, but it excited more enthu- siasm, as Dickinson led from tart and won the heat by three yards with ease in 52, with Spencer and Remington next. The crowd yelled itself hoarse and ‘‘Tubbey” was almost lifted off the ground after the ran, SEVERAL PROTESTS ENTERED. At this point an announcement was mado that several protests had been received by the referee. The New York club protested against the running of Copeland and Quirkbemer of the Manhattan Club, on the ground of professionalism, and the Manhattan did the same on Mitchell on the same ground. The Manhattan club also Protested the run- ning of Nickerson by the’ N.Y.A.C. on the ground that he is not a member of that club, SPORTS IN THE FIELD. Events Simultaneous With Those on the Track, The field was in perfect condition when 1 o'clock came, the hour for the commencing of the regular champiorship games, The sun was just making its appearance from behind the clouds and everything was favorable for good time and sharp contests, Track and field events went on at the same time, and, while the run- ners were getting in place for the 100-yard dash the heavy weights of the tug-of-war teams made their appearance. The stands were all filled and there was the biggest crowd on hand old Analostan Island ever saw. The Marine Band played continuously and added a great deal to the pleasure and interest of the day. The games were started promptly on time and everything was managed in the best possibie spt one the greatest credit on all the offic TRE TUG OF Wak, Tho first in the list of field events was the trial pull of the tug-of-war teams from the A. A.A.andthe M.A.C. The Acorn A.A. team was compose of A. Cole, anchor; It. Ashile C.Y. of Rhode Islandand G.E. Edwards. Th A.G.'s were D. 8, Lord, captain; J. Sinning. jr., D. P. Brokaw and W. T. Rivere. There was no weight limit and both teams were heavy as well as inuscular, ‘The pulling board and cleats were located in the center of the base ball diamond and 1n full view from every point of the ficld. As soon as the second men in the —100-yards had finished their dash the two tug-of-war teams took their places on the cleats and grabbed a firm hold of the heavy manilla rope. When the clamp on the rope was released the men were all up ready for the drop. The pulls were of five minutes duration and naturally every muscle in the eight men was stretched and pulled to the very limit, It was no easy task and the men were not palling for the fun there was in it, On the drop the Acorn’s began to do their level best to get about six inches of the rope on their side of the dividing line. It took all their puiling to keep the advantage, but by the end of the ‘time they bad bettered it to the tune of an iach. THE RUNNING HIGH JUMP. During the rest between tugs the running high jump was started, the bar being placed at 4 feet 6 inches. The entries were: C.T. Weigand, M.Macdermot, . Clegg, YMCA H, L, Halleck, M.A.C K.

Mitchell, Gianinni and Schay- ler, substitutes, Team No. 2 got the better from the go-off and managed to hold it to the end, winning by a footandahalf. This narrowed the contest for fin als in the tug of war down to the Acorns and the N.¥.A.C.’s better team. THE HIGH JUMPING, All this timo the high jumping was in prog- resa, the bar going up by little steps. Several of the men missed at 5 feet 43¢ inches, and the contest narrowed down one by one, At 5 fect 6 inches some more had retired, but there were still enough left to make it interesting. The bar was then put up two inches higher and it began to go dowu with more regularity. At 5 feet 9 li had fallen out but Nickerson, Gong, Hullock and Pritchard. PUTTING THR SHOT.
