ML OF ST. LOUIS B000LERS. The Truth Being Told on the Stand Qoncsrning Traffic in Votes. St Louis, Oct. 2.-When Judge Byan's court met today the trial of Bobert M. Snyder, banker and pro? moter, on the charge of bribery in connection with the passage of the Central ' Traction bil!, was resumed. Frederick G. Uthoff, who was a mem? ber of the ci ty council in April, 1S9S, was put on the stand by the State. In answer to questions put by Circuit Attorney Folk, Uthoff testified that while a member of the city council in 1S9S. when the North and South Trac? tion bills were pending, Robert M. Snyder, called on him at his residence, having been taken there by Louis Dieckmann, by appintment. Uthoff continued: "After" talking socially about half; an hour Snyder spoke of the Central j Traction bill. I told him I did not want to talk about the matter. He said we were both Masons and we could discuss it the same as lodge mat tecs. He said I ought to favor him .with his bill. "I told him I had be6n approached and offered 850,000 for my vote. 41 will get that amount and send it by j Dieckmann,* said Snyder to me." "Witness said Dieckmann brought the package next day. Ushoff said he next saw Snyder at - the Planters' hotel. At this meeting Snyder talked of the Central Traction biU and also of a gas bill. Uthoff said Snyder told witness that if he would introduce this" gas bill as a **rider" tb the.Central Traction bili, and woife for its passage as well as vote lor the Central Traction bill, he would give witness $100,000. "He said he would give me $60,000 next day." Uthoff explained,. $15,000 when the gas bill was introduced and $25,000 when the gas bill was passed. "Then Snyder took up two handfuls of bills," witness stated, "and said '? * "Erhoff, here is 825,000. Dieckmann'< . n the floor of the council with $10, 000 more. I would have had 860,000 for you, but Charlie Carroll got $15, GOO from me today. " Uthoff said he refused to take any of the money then offered him by the promoter. Witness next saw Snyder at the Wal? dorf-Astoria in New York, where de? fendant ?aid .he had $$000 belonging to promoters which he was ready to give Uthoff. He got $2,500 on that visit and $2,500 more three or four mon ths alter. Wi toess told of Snyder's attempts to get the $50,000 from Meier. Snyder said he would turn it over to Uthoff. Circuit Attorney Folk then proceed? ed to question the witness as to the opposition to the Central Traction bill which had devlepoebY and sprung the most interesting bit of information which the Snyder trial has yet dis? closed, involving the name of John Scullin, ex-street railroad magnate, and Edward Butler, a local millionaire politician, in what the witness char? acterized as an attempt to defeat the Central Traction measure bj the use of a big sum of money distributed in relays of $5,000 each to the certain councilmen every montk "In March, 1898, Mr. Scuilin gave me a bill to introduce called the Unit? ed Traction bili," Uthoff stated. "It was designed -to head of the Central Traction bilL "I met Mr. Senilen and he paid me $^,000 to pnsh his bill and defeat the ; other one." "What did you do with the money?" ! "I returned it to Mr. Scullen through Sd. Butler. " After some further testimony in the ! course of which witness said Snyder ' had told him he paid Councilman Chas. iE. Carroll $15,000, Judge Priest, for \ the defense took the witness in hand and began the cross examination. Uthoff tstified'under cross exxamina- ; tion that last week he and Scullin . were before the grand iury together ? and that he told the grand jury that Scullin gave him $25,000 to vote i against the Central Traction bill. Louis Dieckmann, speaker of the ; house of delegates, while the Central Traction bill was pending, testified that Sndyer asked him to assist in get- ' ting the Central Traction bill passed 1 and Snyder said he would see that any ! promise made by George J. Kobusch ; (president of the St Louis Car com- ; j?any) would be kept George J? Xobnsch testified that Snyder had told ! him he paid $50,000 to Uthoff to pass the Central Traction bill. j Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 29.-J. S.

Hughson & Co, A Historical Parallel. Now that Mr. Morgan and his asso? ciates have been angered by the Presi? dent's avowed hostility to trusts and are disposed to resent his temerity and irreverence toward those sacred organ? izations by defeating :his nomination, and, failing in that, h'is election at the polls, we shall probably have about as interesting a campaign as has been witnessed for something more than half a century. If the President is as "strenuous" and earnest as he is reputed to be, the contest will not be unlike a genuine cowboy affair in the West. In many respects it will resem? ble that memorable conflict between Andrew Jackson and the United States Bank, and we shall be able to com? pare the hero of New Orleans with the hero claimant of San Juan. Like Jackson, Mr. Roosevelt [opens his attack on the trusts during his first term. Though the charter of the United States Bank would not expire for six years, in his first mes? sage to Congress Jackson fired his opening shot, . well aware that time would be required to rally the people to his standard and counteract the ad? vantage which such an institution would have, in a sudden collision, with all its money and its menials at hand. "Both the constitutionality and ex? pediency of the law creating this bank,".said he, "are well questioned by a large portion of our fellow citi? zens, and it must be admitted by all that it has failed in the great end of establishing a uniform and sound cur? rency. ' ' From that moment the *war was prosecuted with the bitterest rancor and most relentless vigor. The stock of the bank fell from 123 to 116. Its officers, with Biddle, the president, at the head, realizing the desperate char? acter of the conflict, organized, a pow? erful lobby with headquarters in Wash? ington City. They summoned all their resources. They did not hesitate, or haggle over the price of votes in Con? gress. They subsidized newspapers in every part of the country. The friends of the Administration in Congress suc? ceeded in securing commitees of inves? tigation, but they could not prevent the lobby from packing and controll? ing them. A report was made favor? able to the bank, and as a result its stock rose to 130. It looked as if _the conqueror of the British was beaten by a bank. His foes seemed to over? whelm him. Suborned speakers and newspapers vilified him basely and cruelly: There were secret traitors in his own ranks who had been corrupt? ed, and his frail figure seemed about to be crushed by the most powerful financial institution of the Western Hemisphere. Perhaps nothing in the history of that remarkable man illustrates the unflinching firmness of his character or the heroic courage of his dauntless soul than his conduct during that try? ing period of his If e.. Clay, Webster, and later Calhoun were fighting him in the Senate, all inflamed by the sting of disappointed ambition and goaded by the rowel of the bitterest personal hatred. But never did he flinch under the terrible diatribes which spared neither his private nor public life. The old spirit rose within him. The old fire.blazed in an eye in which Tom Marshall said he could still see twenty unfought battles. The old fury shook his frame, emaciated and enfeebled by disease!, but; which again displayed itsjdreadful energy. As on former "oc? casions, the fury of combat; the rage of battle strengthened his weakened limbs and added a new flame to his flagging spirit. He was no longer an invalid. There was spring in his step : an, imperial and martial manner-al? most the flush of restored youth in his cheek. He had always fought the enemies of his country; he would Sght, them still, whether they ap? peared in scarlet coats or as the minions of a monetary and degrading despotism. t He summoned Blair from Frankfort to establish the Congressional Globe. To Amos Kendall he would dictate its editorials, walking the floor, puffing, his, pipe that glowed like a furnace : and next day his fiery thoughts would appear bedecked in Kendall's graceful and brilliant style. He, too, would have his organs. He would draw the line between his friends and his foes : and, during his first term, he made over 700 removals from office, not in? cluding clerks, though there had been but sixty removals during the preced? ing forty years. There was not one foot of middle ground, and no spct ot refuge for traitors or skulkers. These he could detect almost at a ?lance. It would be interesting to see 3om6 of the tricky and cowardly politi? cians of the present day writhing un? der the fierce glance of that piercing searchlight-Andrew Jackson's eye. The next session he renewed his rec? ommendation against a recharter of the bank in stronger terms, but on test questions he was again beaten ic. Congress. The charter was renewed : be vetoed it, and the bank could not secure the necessary two-thirds vote. Biddle proposed a compromise, but it was rejected with disdain. After his second election he continued the war. He determined to withdraw the Gov? ernment deposits from the bank. But his Cabinet was divided on the ques? tion. It was difficult to find a Secrp tary of the Treasury who would execute his orders. A committee of investiga? tion reported that the bank was sound and the deposits safe. Four out of six members of his Cabinet opposed re? moval because "the business interests of the country" would be imperiled. McLan? had resigned the secretary? ship of the Treasury: Duane, on whom Jackson thought he could rely, was appointed. But he took the same view and resigned. Jackson persist? ed. "I have no confidence in Con? gress," said he; "if the bank is per? mitted to have the public money, j there is no power to prevent it from j obtaining a charter: it will have it j if it has to buy up all Congres^ and the public funds will enable it to do it." Taney was appointed, ordered rhe j removal and the bank expired before | its charter. There was a panic rc salting from such an industrial revo lution, of course; but, like most rev- : olutions, it did good. It proved a 1 warning to the country that enormous monetary power should not bo confer? red on any institution. Now is Mr. Roosevelt, with all ii is "strenuousness," prepared [to go rhe Jacksonian gait? The money power to? day is far stronger than it was then. It "has twenty-five members of the Sen? ate worth from two to twenty-five mil? lions of dollars each. It has others who covet riches above all things. It has a large faction, if not a majority, in the House. When Col. Roosevelt ; and Col. Wood led the Rough Riders into an ambuscade at San Juan his fol? lowers admired his courage, but ques? tioned his discretion. His political followers may be?[doing the same thing and for the same reason.-Courier Journal. THE PROGRESS OF G?BS. An Increase of a Quarter of a Million Over September Last Year. Habana, Oct. 2.-Senor Montes, sec? retary of the treasury, reports that the customs receipts for the entire island of Cuba during the month of Septem? ber amounted to 81,307,102. The re? ceipts from the postoffice, money order department, internal revenue and sun? dries and reimbursements, etc., bring the total receipts for the month up to SI, 596,401. The cash on hand August 31 vras 81,039,247, which added to the t'otal of September's receipts makes a grand tot^l of $2,635,648. Payments made during September amounted to $1,228,912, and there was a balance in the treasury September 30 of $1,406, 736. This report shows an increase in the customs receipts for September of this year of $264,490 over those of Septem? ber, 1901. The fact that the customs receipts of the island now are keeping up with those collected during the period of intervention has caused a good impres? sion among the business elements of the island ' and favorable comments from the press. These conditions, coupled with an increase in the price of sugar, and the reports that the sugar crop will be much larger than that of last year, are bringing about a noticeable restoration of confidence. The senate has asked President Palma if the withdrawal of American soldiers from Cuba is 'dependent upon an increase in force of Cuban artil lery, A proposition is now before the ? senate.to increase this branch of the J Cuban service by one thousand men. | it is stated that experiments with aluminum as a substitute for paper are now under way in France. It is now possible to roll aluminum into sheets four-thousandths of an inch in thickness, in which form it weighs less than paper. By the adoration of suitable machinery these sheets can be made even thinner and can be used for book, and writing paper. The metal will not oxidize, is practically fire and water proof and is indestructible by "worms. Get a free sample of Chamberlain's j Stomach and Liver Tablets at Dr. ?. J. j China's drug store.

The Fourth Volume of General McCrady's Great Work issued. Gen. McCrady bas now completed his work on "The History of South Carolina," with the fourth volume, " In the Revolution, 1780-1783.*' This volume fulfils the purpose of the author as announced in his preface to the first of the s?ries "to trace the history and development of the State of Sonth Carolina, socially and political? ly from the inception of the colcny to the end of the American Revolution:" the first volume (1897) covering the period from the founding of the colony under the Proprietary Government to the overthrow of-that rule, 1670-1719: the second, (1899, ) the history of the colony under the Royal Government and of the inception of the Revolution, 1719-1776; the third, (1901, ) the history of the war of the Revolution in South Carolina, 1776-1780, and this [the fourth volume, (1902, ) continuing the story of that struggle from 1780 to its end in 1783. This, the last volume pro? posed by, the author, is practically the history of Greene's campaign in the South, about which so much has been written from the standpoint of that general, but so little from that of the partisan leaders, Sumter, Marion and Pickens, and their followers. The story as developed by the author is of great and romantic interest, an interest which cannot be confined to the limits of the State, for though the scene of the operations is almost cir? cumscribed by the borders, South Carolina was butj the principal field whereon the struggle of the Revolution was continued during the last three years of the, war. Au interesting fea? ture of the work is the author's treat? ment of the operations in South Caro? lina as part of the general British cam? paign, planned and directed by the war office in London, and of the effect of the defeat of that plan upon the for? tunes of the whole country. The frontispiece presents a map which shows the State dotted all over from the seaboard to the mountains with battlefields, a chronological list of which to the namber of ?37 is found in an appendix, a carefully prepared table, which affords a fitting conclusion to the work."-News and Courier.
