After an invest nlhm. which revealed that the names -of many traders on the records were flctitious, he confronted Holstuan with the facts.

-U all up with he is said to have replied, "and 1 mihl as well acknowledge it." Holsman pleaded for leniency, and the pleadings fell on a bl heart, and he was given time in wtiicli to make Bood.

Mr. Bloom, when aak-d atjout Ihe night, said that there was no cause for Holsman leaving his employ except that lie thought Ida connection with the office would be a handicap to it.

owing to ttie failure of the Holsman firm some time Ko Mr. Bloom said he thought that might he true, and did not object to I tollman leaving.

At the end of days the water was reentered and the arlionn. eoii, matter weighed. An average of 5. olio grume, or pounds, per siiuare foot was shown. According to lir.

Yet we go calmly ahead and allow three men and women, young or in the prime of life and much more valuable producing machines than mules, to die everyday lu Cincinnati and make no effort to slop the preventable and curable disease wliuh causes them to die." Max Senior, after making the above statement at Die free tuberculosis exhibit. lJVLkl Kasl Fourth street, yesterday proceeded to show- by statistics that Cincinnati directly and Indirectly suffers a tremendous loss every year by not taking vigorous action, such as is lakeu in yellow fever, smallpox ajid other edii. titles, and stamping out consumption.

In orderNo find out the cause fo the delay in completing the work. Ilia company, he said, would send from head-'uarlers men expert In making such Investigations, and nothing would be left undone that would protect the Interests of Norwood during the time they were on the ground. He was iatformed that the board would not be unnecessarily severe on his com pany, but thai the question of collecting on the bond of ihe contractors would be disiussed al the regular meeting next Mon day night.

MEETING CALLED To Consider the Students' Franks Has Been Declared Off. The wild march of upper class men of the university on Monday, when they treated some of the freshmen to Indignities and marched through the streets and through some of the schools downtown, disturbing classes and the work of the teachers, has aroused the Indignation of some of the members of the Board of Trustees of the university. ine of them was so incensed that he asked Chairman Kuhn, of the iMianl. to cell special meeting for tomorrow to Investigate the matter and take proper action. The meeting was called, but it has liei'ii postponed because of the request to that effect of President Daliney, who could not be present, as he would bo out of the city on' that day.

Mr. Kuhn said last night that he had notified 'the members of the tioard that the mei-ting would prolmhly not be held, and said that he dtrr'ftot know whether another meeting would lie called Inter on or not. It depends entirely upon how Ihe members of the hoard felt about It. Few of the mvm-bi-rs would express an opinion yesterday on the action of the students. Mr.

Du Mruhl said he thought the action of the students was disgraceful, but he believed II was a matter for the faculty of the uni versity to deal with, and the board could hardly take action unless the faculty failed to do their duty. lir. Ransohoff said he thought It was but a boyish prank, and that no great harm was done. Mr. Broun said he had talked to some of the students, and he believed their actions had not been quite so bail as represented.

Mr. Hooker. Mr. Kuhn and others declined, to express an opinion. EVERY ATTENTION Is Showered Upon Darby Dacey, the De Camp Fire Victim.

Iarby Iacey, the unfortunate victim of the le Camp Furniture Company flre. who wa found Tuesday in an old shed at Water and Vine treet. is lying jitthe City Hospital swathed in blindages at)d making a desperate fiKht for life. There is not a space as big as a quarter from the crown of his head to the soles of hi feet, with the xoeption of hLs right leg between tht ankle and the knee, (hat is not a trleeding sore. And while the burning limlt i ate his ears and lips, his eyes are uninjured, and with them he sends a mute appeal to the nurses who are assiduously ministering to him.

Kint. soaked in aluminum acetate to sooth the terrible burns, is constantly being applied, and during the greater part of the time he is kept undor the influence of a powerful opiate that renders him unconscious of his sufferings. How lcey survived the terrible exposure and agony is an enigma to his physicians. With all that and the Tender care he is receiving he cannot live, his death being a question of hours or of days. FAMILY ROW In the Buffalo Pen Lays Dakota4' Up For Repairs.

A very sick two-year-old bull buffalo. Da-kola by name, was found In one of the three buffalo pens when the keepers arrived with breakfast yesterday morning. Late Tuesday afternoon. Just as it was getting dark, one of the keepers noticed Maude, the mother of Dakota, chasing and punishing Bismarck, father of Dakota, the king of the pen. after there had been considerable noise from it.

but did not investigate further. Superintendent Sol Stephan yesterday said: "We will put Dakota In a sling, just as they do sick horses, and after he gets well will give him a pen by himself and provide him with a family later ou. The young fellow has been getting rambunctious lately, and Bismarck, his father, wanted to do away with him. He did gore him severely, but Maude, who is about as good at fighting as The Si xdat Exqi'irkr Maude, chased him away. It waa a family row all around, but no bones were broken and all will he well shortly.

We have "JO buffaloes in three pens and were fixing up a fourth pen for Dakota when the row occurred. AN ALLEN'S MANIA. The family of Henry Marks. Pulton avenue, was last night thrown Into a fever of excitement by the actions of their servant. Susie Oebel.

They found her In her bedroom on her knees praying fervently and in a strange tongue offering petitions to heaven wtth upraised arms. From her actions it was easily seen that she was demented, and the City Hospital ambulance was requisitioned and she was placed in the strong ward of that institution. The girl, who Is only a few months from Hungary, has neither kith nor kin in this country, and she will be transferred to Long-view. SCHWAkLB INQTJEST.

TABLES TURNED On tha Upper Classmen By Sorsravl Husky Youna; Treshmen.

The tsbles were turned st the unlrerslty yesterday, for when seversl seniors at tempted to repeat the performance carried out by the upper classmen Monday, tbat of having the heads of the freshmen, they were I set upon by a band of these under classmen, and handled In a manner that h.ft several of them bruised and humiliated. The freshmen, since their defeat of when they were overpowered by tbe combined forces of. the sophomores, Juniors and seniors, have been going about the building In groups of fives and tens, continually breaking the rules which the "uppers" have ordered them to obey. When a freshle named Nelson Thompson, therefore, entered the front doors of the McMicken Hall yesterday morning, a thing which all freahmen are forbidden to do. he was seised by a crowd of seniors, and taken Into Ihe basement of the university for a repetition of Monday's hair-cutting.

Just before the proceedings began, however. several freshmen rushed to his assistance. and a general fight followed. When the dust had cleared away the seniors were lying outside the room, and the lower class men were in full possession. This is only a beginning, so the freshmen declare, of a move to revenge themselves against the upper classmen for the tonsorlal work of Monday.

The Juniors will call a meeting of the three upper classes the latter part of this week and probably withdraw from further participation In the halr-cultlng line. They wlll ask the Sophmores to follow their ex ample, and this will leave only the Seniors to cope with the Freshmen, who declare they will take! advantage of this opportunity and retaliate upon the dignified Seniors. CHANGES In City Hospital Staff Demanded By Doctors of B. P. S.

So as To Giro Eclectics and Homeopaths Representation. The Kclectie and Homeopath physicians insist ou representation on the City Hospital staff as well as the so-called -regular" or "old i school" doctors. Dr. Karl irl.in. who is an Allopath, mid Dr.

R. I. Thonma addressed the Board of Public Service in executive session on the subject yesterday morning. They submitted petitions signed by a large number of physicians in various parts of the city demanding that the monopoly of special privileges and opportunities by a few'- and "taxation without representation" which they lnsist has been the case at the City Hospital he terminated. They urged that physicians of till schools be given equal representation In the hospital staff, as they all pny taxes for the maintenance of the Institution and should be given the same recognition.

They recom mend that the Board of Medical Directors be Increased from three to five members and that they be selected to represent the different schools of medicine. They also urged that all members of the medical staff who had served lt years he retired and younger men appointed in their places. The loard decided to take the matter under con sideration. It Is likely that the hoard will hold a public meeting to hear from the doctors of the Allopathic and Homeopathic schools as to their reasons why those from the Kclec-ttc and other schools of medfeine should not he given representation on the hospital staff, while the latter will he given an opportunity to present arguments In favor of their admission into the staff. In speaking of the matter afterward Public Service Director Charles A.

Miller said: "One doctor of Cincinnati has been trying ever since this board has been In office to get on the medical staff of the City Hospital. When we took hold there were three of the finest men and most competent physicians in the city composing the Board of Medical Directors Dr. Byron Stanton. Dr. A.

B. lsham and Dr. Louis Schwab. Now-some one tried lo induce them to switch about the medical staff and make changes so that he could get a position on the staff. Hut the Medical Directors would have none of him.

Then he tried his skill on the Hamilton County legislative delegation, but without succeeding in interesting it in a change in the law- regarding the government of the City Hospital. Now comes the line work. So this acti-re man goes to Mayor liempsey and tells him what an excellent Medical Director of the hospital his family physician. Dr. W.

E. Kiely. would make. Then he goes to Marx and tells him that his family physician. Dr.

J. H. Elch-tierg. would lend ornament to the Medical Directorship. Then he goes to BendeV and tells him that Dr.

E. tjustav Zlnke is Just the man for the Medical Directorship. What happens- Lo and behold, those grand old men and physicians, Schwab. Stanton anl lsham. are removed and Eichberg, Kiely and Zinke are appointed.

I protested against it at the time, but without avail. The thing was put through. "Well. I will not vote to put through any thing that will put certain people on the medical staff. Of course, under the law the Board of Public Service has full authority over the hospital, but it has been arrangid that the Medical Directors shall have control over the purely medical end of the Institution.

1 am not going to rush in on a matter like the composition of the medical staff. Let the Directors attend to that." INTEREST In the Schaller Brewery Held By John Aim eder May Be Sold To Edward Sohn. Friction between contending interests In the management of the Schaller brewery.

with his holdings linked with Mike Keck and the stock left him by his father, who was formerly brewmaster In the plant, comprised the controlling Interest, and pitted against them was John Armleder and his confreres. Something of a struggle for supremacy has been waged for a long while, and about a month ago Sohn and Keck made a buy or sell offer. It is understood that they offered to buy or sell at t70.ii within a month's time. The offer was made to Armleder to buy within that time, and as the time Is nearly up and nothing so far has come of It. Sohn and Keck will in all probability take over the Armleder interests.

FAULT Lies With Churchmen, Sajs Irwin Krohn, Discussing the Hirpcr IncidenL Business Men's Club Does Not Put Up the Bars Agalast Negro nfJ Some HaT Beei Entertained There Preaekers Express Regret It was stated yesterday that, so far as the officials of the Business Men's Club are concerned, tbe Incident of the refusal to serve Re. J. E.

Harper, the negro pastor of the Carmrl Presbyterian Church, at the meeting of the Presbyterian Club on Tues day night. It Is closed. Formal explanations were made, which show the incident to have been the result of a misunderstanding in not previously making arrangements with the club officials to serve the colored minister who was to b-present. William B. Jones, ho is a mem her of the Business Men's Club and made the arrangements for the Presbyterian ban quet.

yesterday assured the officials of the club that the mistake was on his part, and absolved the attaches from all blame. In the absence of President Albert Bet linger, who Is attending the convention of the Ohio Valley Improvement Association, at Portsmouth, Vice President Irwin M. Krohn said: A Begretable Affair. "The whole affair is a very regretable one and Is a result of the failure to make previous arrangements. There Is no rule of the club which prohibits service to colored people; In fact, colored persons have been entertained there several time In the past, and they were, I believe.

In religious meetings. -The first time the question came up the matter was spoken of in advance of the meeting That gave us a chance to have the club steward make arrangements for service. Had this course been pursued on Tuesday evening I am sure that there would have been no trouble, as we have no objection to the service of colored per sons on such occasions. "There were three banquets at the club Tuesday night, nearly DOO persons having been served. When such a large crowd is on hand we are forced to hire extra wait t-rs.

They would have refused to serve the colored nkan. and If we insisted the waiters would just as like as not have struck. "When Rev. Mr. Harper came to the club the matter wa immediately explained to some of the ministers present and they went to Dr.

Harper and gave him a full explanation of the situation. He then left the club." Fault Lies With the Club. The incident provoked no end of com mi nt among the Presbyterian residents of the city, laity as well us clergy. The con sensus of opinion was that, while it was an unfortunate' occurrence to have a colored minister of the Cincinnati Presbytery excluded from a great social church gath ering in. the ion of Christian brother hoods, the funlt was not to be found with the church, but rather with the Business Men's Club.

Still, the question arose: Who provided Rev. Mr. Harper with his ticket for the dinner, when it was known that he would not be allowed admission? The answer wa easily forthcoming. It was William 11. Jones, one of the Executive Committee having the arrangements in charge for thet dinner and a prominent member of the Second Presbyterian Church.

No one expressed more regret over the incident than Mr. Jones, who yesterday made thi- statement in apology that he had sold Rev. Mr. Harper the ticket, forgetting all about the rules in force at the Business Men's Club, of which he i himself a memlM-r. Dr.

John Watson, pastor of. the Second Presbyterian Church, upon whom was devolved by the committee tne unpleasant task of explaining to Rev. Mr. Harper the emergency of the situation, said yesterday: "No one can feel more keenly than I do regret for this unfortunate occurrence. 1 was requested to tell Mr.

Harper because I have been on most pleasant terms with him. and have co-operated with him In his success with the Presbyterian Colored Church In this city. 1 did not request him to leave, however. This he did of his own accord. I am still a Trustee of the univer sity in the South where Mr.

Harper was educated. Some of our prominent men In the church belong to the colored race. We have no colored line In the church, and we never draw It. Mr. Harper has been present at several dinners or banquets given by our societies and brot herhoods, and no objection was ever raised to his presence.

"A Christian Gentleman." "He la a culluriii Christian gentleman, whatever his color may be. Nor. do I think that the Busim Men's Club Is to blame for enforcing a rule. The objection of tne waiters to serve a negro is at the bottom of all. It is to be regretted that Mr.

James sold the ticket to Mr. Harper, forgetting all about the Business Men's Club rule." Rev. Dr. F. C.

Monfort said: "It was an unfortunate occurrence. We have no color line In the Presbyterian Church and Mr. Harper is one of the best respected and honored members our Cincinnati Presbytery. He has attended our social banquets time and again. This was simply an objection of the Business Men's Club, and if the dinner had been given at one of our churches Mr.

Harper would certainly not have been excluded. Why. some of our strongest and most representative men are of the colored race. We have Dr. Sanders.

President of Biddle University, able and eloquent. We have one synod composed entirely of colored presbyteries and among them efficient clergymen. We have entire presbyteries made up of the colored race. Our educational work in the South is constantly on tbe increase, and I tell you there Is a certain percentage of the colored race that i being uplifted, while the other Is degenerate and going down." Revs. Dr.

McKlbbln. Brown and others expressed similar views. Dr. William F. McCauley was vehement in his denunciation of the incident, and said: ''Thts is the second time that Rev.

Mr. Harper has been excluded from such occasions after receiving an invitation. It is a shame that it should be tolerated by the Presbyterian Church. It would have been better to have given the banquet somewhere else, where the selection of our company wrould not be interfered with. What is good enough for the Presbyterian Church ought to be good enough for the Business Men's Club.

We have no color line in tbe Presbyterian Church and we never draw any." Robert P. Hargiit. Chairman of the Arrangements Committee, said: There was no reflection on Rev- Mr. Harper. The committee did not know that the club objected to colored men.

We regret the incident very much. WILL EZAHSEST II AH TIN. If the petition for pardon from the workhouse for W. J. Martin, now being considered- bjr the Pardon Board of the Board of Public Service, ts favorably acted upon and Martin Is releaased.

DIPHTHERIA In Children's Ward at City Hospital, and Annex Is Overcrowded With Patients I iph i Imria estordny hrnko out in the rhtl dren'a ward of tne Oily Hospital and Walter I'lifT. tiw nine-year-old victim ot the dread iliMHsr, who was admitted aevernl days ago witli a broken hip, was hu.Miiy rana furred to the annex.

It Ward, whu li is tlie children's ward, and has marly a corc of patients, waa tln-n disinfected and the little om a subjected to anti-toxui treatment. The transfer of Walter Oliff and the admission yesterday of tSVorKe Wucrtx, similarly afflicted, renders the condition in the annex appalling. ln four little rooms, which would bo crowded with right paik-nta, 15 infantile atifTerera are now sheltered. Willi three ursea, who must cart, sleep and live within tnese narrrtw confines. The physi cians in ehaipe of these cases say that they have pleaded for more room from the I'liy Hospital authorities, but "that their reo.ucM lias boen denied.

ileal: Officer 1 r. Samuel Alien said yesterday: "The Health I rtmeut is powerlesa to correct the evil that is only too apparent. The City Hospital lias no ad titi.te facilities for the isolation of any kind of 'umHKioui disease, only makeslii ts. The other wards are all pretty well tilled up. and if the epidemic should increase the hos pital authorities will be confronted with a terrible responsibility.

If a frnest in one of our hotels who has no residence here should stricken with diphtheria, he or she would have to go to thia miserable litil1 diphtheria annex, with children and adults." Ir. K. Ouatav Zinke. one of the Medical Directors, said: "it cannot be dt-nied tbat the hospital does not afford the best of isolation facilities for contagious diseases. ,1 shall, however, order that another ward be ofened to-morrow for the accommodation of diphtheria cases, so that tne congestion is rHIeved." To prevent the development of diphtheria at the House of Refuge all the children who came in contact with Cecil Proctor, aged t.

mho was taken to the City Hospital with the disease, have "been separated from the other inmates and will be kept isolated until the danger of contagion is past. Four new cases of diphtheria mere re ported to the Health Office yesterday. They were from 1.VI7 Froviden-? street, 110 Gage street. McMillan street and the south east corner of Shlllito and Heading road. CONSPIRACY Was Hatched For the Purpose of Ruin ing Him, Says Myers.

In Police Court yenterday morning Ed ward of lli'i Build street, who, the police say, ran a murk Tuesday night, wan arraigned on the charge of rohbery. His case was continued until the L'4th. Meyers and his friends claim that he mas the victim of a plot to get him into trouble. Meyers is a bmther-ln-laa of Vincent iJotjr. The lntter hns come to his a-nistanoe and says he will have no trouble fn proving the above fact.

Meyers says that he drank freely Tuesday afternoon, and dnlare that when he y-ft the work upon which he ass employed he never had a revolver. In a poolroom on West Sixth street h- met several men and he announced himself as iot)-'s brother-in-law. In the crowd was the cousin of a man Ioty was chargi-d with shooting some time ago. but of which he was acquitted. Meyers says he had trouble with them and left the place.

He alM denies having cut Arthur Weisenhorn in Polinsky's saloon, and the latter stated at the huspltal yesterday that Meyers was not the man who uwd a knife upon him. He claims that when arrested it was Doty's enemy who gave Patrolman Bell a gun which he said he took from Meyers. Meyers has always borne a good reputation. He is out on a 1.J0 bond. GOT OUT A WRIT For a Grocery Boy and the Wrong Dog Spangenberg-'s Mistake.

A few days ago Attorney E. Spangenberg missed his St. Charles spaniel of fine pedigree from his home, on Eden avenue. Yesterday morning Mr. Spangenberg saw a canine whteli he thought aaa his running behind one of the delivery wagons of Voss at Co.

The driver of tlie wagon called at Mr. Spangenberg house dally, and he forthwith sent his son to Magistrate Maus's Court, where he secured a writ of replevin for the dog. The writ was directed at "John Doe." and was placed in the hands or Constable Jake Krohrnan. The latter found out that "John Doe" was Jake Klein, and the boy, greatly frightened, accompanied the Constable and Mr. Spangenberg to his hotue.

where he produced the dog. A clever'bit of detective wcrk went wrong, however, when the dog was found to be of the opposite sex than the one owned by ihe attorrrHy. The Bismarck Caie, MEKCASTII.C LIBRARY BLOC 43S MMLSl'T T. l-aalesr- Dlataar RMa la tbe Vr.t. Biesrapotitaa Sees tee.
