He Thinks He Onght to Be the Best Judge of Bis Wife's Sanity. DOES '0T WANT HER PROPERTY. Jlrs. Euhn's Friends Say She Only Seeds Kind Treatment. k EECOXCILUHOX IS JIST1CIPATED There is much more of a story in Mrs. Harry P. Kuhn's insanity than has been told in court or given to the public in any other form. The husband of the unfortunate lady who was placed in Dixmont by her husband mid was released irom there last Saturday by Judges "White and Magee granting a writ of habeas corpus to Mrs. Blake, the mother of Mrs. Kulin, make a statement to The Dispatch last night. Mr. Kuhn incidentally asserted that his wife, four years ago, had been ailected in the same manner that she was at the time he placed her in Dixmont, and that she went to her mother saying an at tempt had been made upon her lite by Mr. Kuhn with a deadly poison and that she m afraid to live with him. Mrs. Blake psoihed the suffering lady, and after a few dajsshe returned to her husband and chil dren with the grewsome subject obliterated from her mind. Mr. Kuhn was somewhat exercised over what had been published, and the intima tions and hints which were rather broadly thrown out m Saturday s proceedings in court troubled him considerably. He said lie and his wife were reconciled to each other, and that lie was only solicitous ior lier health when he placed her in the asy lum at Dixmont Wants to l'nt lliimeir Itljrht. He further asserted that he was averse to talking for publication, but in considera tion of the fact that he had been misrepre sented in an unhappy manner to the public, lie thought it the time to set himself aright with the people by making a statement. Continuing, Mr Kuhn said: "I think I am the bet judge as to the insanity of my wife, inasmuch as we have continu ously lived together for the last 35 years, and until some tne years ago nothing whatecr came between us. Alien she Degan to exhibit certain signs ol mental weakness. "We still lived together, however, and continued to do -o until the Month of February, 1891. At that time I was confined to my bed with a serious ill ness, but in a moment of mental aberiation she insisted upon my leaving the house. "When I objected she inisted and finally compelled me to go by discharging all of she servants and turning out all the fires, although the weather was still intenselv cold. I left home then, being taken away 'c a cab. "When I was strong enough I returned to fit ihc house locked against me. I pleaded . VU.

'Squire Mc Milhn, of Mansfield, held an inquest on the little bodies recoi cred on Saturday night, returning a verdict of accidental drowning. The inquest mede an affectum scene. The parents and relatives of the drowned chil dren were all present, ami as the details of tho trage ly were drawn from the four sur viving members of the little pirty of eight chlldien by the 'Squire, tho encf of the af flicted parents was pitiful to behold.

Elizabeth Covne was the onl one to rise to the surface after they fell in, and she only once. ince the accident the other four chlldien have been wrought up to such a state of nervous excitement that they scarcely cat or sleep, and in the case of one child, a sis ter of the little Holleran boy, it is feired she will lose her roason. She was greatly at tached to her brother, and ever since the terrible scene of the drowning hassuffered fiom hysteria Men are still at woilc en deavoring to llnd the little fellow's body.

Ihc bill is on the calendar, and is to come up as soon as the appiopriation bills, which have tho r'ght of way, aie through. She has spent considerable time already at the Capi tal City in the interest ot this bill and has carried it through the committee by a unan imous vote, and it is now believed that it will pass the House by a largo majoritv. The membeis fiom the Northern States will stand almost solidly for the bill. Gov ernor Bussell, of Massnchusctts, has asked the members of that State to stand unitedly for that measure. Other States will vote without regard to rjurty in favor of it. Many of the Southern members are also in favor of the bill. There are now about 300 women who come under the provisions or this hill. About 100 of them are being supported by the National Women's Relief Coips, which involves n heavy outlay each jeai. These women saved the lives of thousands, and she be lieves that the Government should provide nt least $12 per month for those who are in need. It will involve annuallv about only S0,0M to the Government. A CATHOLIC H0UE To Be Erected for the Care of Needy Boys and Girls. An enthusiastic meeting of the gentlemen interested in the proposed protectorate for chlldien was held in Floyd's Hall, Liberty street, last night, representatives being pres ent from a large number of Catholic socie ties.

Political Prophets All at Sea in tho Seventh District. ONLY PROVIDENCE KNOWS THE END The Official Peturns Sho-r a Decided Vic tory for Quay. EUTAX WORN OUT BY IIlS FARD FIGHT More complete returns of Saturday's Re publican primaries bear out the statements as to the winners in yesterday's DlSPAicn. It was a victory tor Quay wherever the United States Senatorship was made the issue. The only places this was brought out were in the two fights in Allegheny and in the Seventh and Uighth Legislative dis tricts. The Quav forces were victorious in all save the Seventh Legislative district, and that is a matter for Providence and the delegates to decide. It is beyond the ken of any politician still in the flesh. This district is composed of all the boroughs and townships north of the Allegheny and Ohio rivers. The candidates are Quail, Ritchie, Kroeson, "Wallace, Patterson and Smith. There was no fixed combination, and the only thing known now is that a sufficient number of delegates were elected. Affairs are so mixed, however, that no one knows how they will vote to morrow. Each delegate will vote for two men, and but few of them have hit on the same combination. For example, one dele gate was nt the Tariff Club last night who was generally reputed to have been for Quail and "Wallace, but he says he will cast Ins votes for Quail and Ritchie in the con vention. It is the hardest district in the State to tell anything about, and, as Sheriff McCleary said last night, "You are never sure in that district until the Chairman of the convention announces the winners." Gained Strength IV hen He Quit. In the Seventh Legislative Convention two years ago Joseph Ritchie withdrew and on the next ballot' got 300 more votes than he had on the one on which be withdrew. In Allegheny the returns onlj confirmed the report of yesterday. In the Independ ent dlstilct Maishall and McDonald will go into the convention with 3,522 votes to Rntan's 915. Muhlbronner and Wertheimer in the Fiist district have 2.7S7 votes to Hai blson and Robinson's 1,317. Stewart, in the Eighth district, which com prises the boroughs and townships between the Allegheny and Monongahela rlveis, in cluding McKeesport, wins out over Walker, though the majority is not large. In the Forty-fifth Senatorial dlstilct Dr. Barchfield admits defeat. Ho claims more delegates than Senator Steele, but Barchfield's repie sentation in votes tails short. Yesterday everything was quiet and there but few mote ciies ot fraud. Ex-Senator Rutnn was so completely woni out that he could not be seen, and spent most of tho daj in bed. He expects to go East this morning The County Committee returns awakened but little interest, as theie was no opposi tion, but the names of Judge btowe and Cor oner McDowell drew out a very creditable vote. The County Convention meets in the Duquesnc Theater at 10 o'clock to-morrow mot ning and w III nominate Judge Stnwe and Coroner McDowell. Ic will also nominate II. v. Ochse, of Etna, for Poor Dliector. Only the boiouchs and townshiDS will take part in this nomination. Earchfield Sntisfled Willi His Fight. Dr. Barchfield saldyesteiday that he was perfectly sntisfled with the fight he had made. Said he: "I will go into the conven tion with more delegates than Steele, but will probably be in tho neighborhood of 1,000 votes short. I would have won out easily if I could have carried 16 districts in the city, and would have done so If some of my delegates had not been pulled off. I now have 46 delegates. Of the 13 districts heaid from to-day I car ried 11, and of the 21 yet to hear from I feel sure I will carry 18. That will give me 29, instead of 27, as I said last night. Of the countrv districts heard from to-day 1 cat ried the First. Second, Third and Sixth cf Mifilln, lost the Filth, and the Seventh is doubtful. I lost the Fiist in Jeffetson, but will win out in the othci three." The following telegram was received by the doctor: "Gloiy to God, we hive carried both Im peiial distiicis. Beech Cliff, Haltcrown, Clinton aud Second Moon district. "Dr. CRAwronn." "Will Go Into the Convention. "I also can led Oakdale, In North Fayette," continued Dr. Barchfleld, "which makes tho total of 11 out of 13 heaid from. Although lam virtually defeated, I will go into the convention anyway and will godown with flying colors, but will be heaid from again. I have stood alone in this fight and will show the machine what I am made or, and I want to say further that, although defeated, I am still a KeDublican and will be in line for the ticket in the fall." Tiie Republican primaries for the election of County Committeeman from the Eight eenth ward was held In the McCandless School House on Saturday. Henry Gram, the Dalzell candidate, was detoated by William Dodds, a laborer in the blacksmith shop of Porter A Boll, at Fiftieth sticet and Allcghenv Valley Railroad, tram, bv ex cellent management of the Republican forces, ias become a leader In the ward, being President of the local committee. Tho fight was warm and a total surprise, since Gram is a worker, w hilo Dodds ap paiently made no effoit. Thn vot stood 103 to 113 It is alleged that many Demociats voted at the primaries. FATHER SCHWAB, OF SHARPSBDRO, Instructs His Congregation to Tote for Klectrlc Light. The coming election In Shnrpsburg on tho question whether the borough will erect an incandescent electric light plant is causing a gteat deal or Interest. There Is some talk that a quiet canvass Is boing made against the issue. A new move was made In tho matter yes toidav. Fftthi'i Schwab called the attention of his members to tho nppioachlng election. He told them that electricity was tho only light, and that it was a great deal belter to nave the borough operate tho plant than n orivate company. Ho thought It the duty 6r e cry citizen to vote for light. SURDAY BIBBERS RAIDED. Two Speak-Emles Fall Into the Hands of the Law.

TIN PLATE DRUMMERS Manufacturers Losing Money, bat the In dnstrv Is Being Well EstaDtished. The third annual meeting of the repre sentatives of the tin aud sheet metal trade will be held at the Monongahela House to day. About 20 members are expected. Since the tin plate tariff went into effect drummers have done all they can to piomoto the In dustry. It makes no difference to them whether they sell tho homo or foreign arti cle, but they prefer to build up American industries. "Tin plato will come in for a largo share In the discussion. J. F. Natthai, of Baltimore, is President and Jason Davis, Jr., of Philadelphia, Treas urer. Mr. Davis said last evening that the Yankees aie turning out a good variety of lonflng tin plate, but thev haven't com menced to make bright Plato on an exten- slv e scale. There is, however, some Ameri can blight plate on the market. He admittod that the McKinley tin cups wcie not made out of home tin. There was no necessity for the Republicans to make such wild claims for the business. The Industry is being well established and will flourish. Mr. Davis says the canners have been paying an advance of 75 per cent on their tin, and they complain that the price of their goods has not changed The trouble is that while tin waro has not inn eased in pi ice for the con sumer, it costs the Jobbers and manufactui ersmote, nnd they have been standing the loss. They are not making the sacrifice lor the siko of the Industry, but because thoy can't help it. The Welsh'exports of tin plate have fallen off, but that Is due to the large amount imported before the McKinley tariff went Into effect. The stock Is now neaily exhausted and as a result the impoitations for April and May have increased. BURIED IS A HURRY. Coroner McDowell Proposed to Have the Body Exhumed. Mrs. John Doby, of Beltzhoover borough, died at 9 o'clock Saturday night and was buried at 2 o'clock yestorday afternoon. The undue haste in the lntorment was not necessary on account of the nature of the disease which carried her off, and the Coro ner will piobably nave the leinalns ex hnmed for investigation. Dr. Sweeney, of Allentown, first notified the Coroner of tne death yesterday morn ing, stating that lie bad been called to at tend Mrs. Doby, but she was dead when he ai lived. He was ready to issue a certificate for her Interment, as lie was sntisfled that death was due to acute alcoholism, Mrs. Doby having drank a great quantity of liquor on Saturday. The Coroner, however, ordered tho doctor to have the Justice of tho Peaco hold an Inquest. Supposing the order would be oheyed the Coroner sent his clerk, David Simple, to take the tcstimony vesterday afternoon, but the funeral had loft the house befoie his arrival. No ex planation was given for the hasty burial, and Mr. Sample was unable to see Doby, tne husband of tne deceased. TO PR0M0IE THE ART. This Is tho Object of the Master Car and Locomotive Painters. The Master Car and Locomotive Painters' Association of the United States met at the Monongahela House Saturday. Hie organi zation is composed of foiemenonly, nnd was instituted oiei 22 yen.rs ago. The object of the organization i to make the painters more nroflcient in car and locomotive paint ing. Each year they meet nnd exchange v lews on the inetnod' employed in different shops. They then select the best and most economical formulas offered. The organization has already reduced the cost ot painting caisund locomotives over 40 per cent, with a coirespondlng reduction in time. It thinks tho railioads should loud assistance In bringing the membeis to the annual convention. To bring this matter before their emplojeish, lesolution nsklng the different companies to arrange transpor tion was passed. Sim Listened to Itenson. A reckless and headstrong woman has at last seen the error of her way. For a long time she lias been wearing out herself, her husband nnd her purse by insisting on bak ing with inferior flour, jumping every week to some new brand in her eflorts to find a good, cheap flour. Her husband and friends insisted that flour like anything else had a price in accord with quality, and prevailed on her to try Camellia and Bayard Amber. They nre all happy now and the lady de clares the best is 'he cheapest. When she wants a fancv. elegant flour she buvs Camellia. Wnen she wants a splendid family baker at a fair price she gets Bayard Amber. They are the whitest, richest, purest and most regular, and make more flour per sack than any other. One trial is convincing. A Difference of Opinion Exists between the publisher of a valuable little book called "One Hundred Lessons in Business" and Fleishman & C. The pub lisher thinks he ought to sell 10,000 copies at Sleach. Fleishman & Co. think he ought to sell 1,000,000 at 25 cents each. This week the firm will endeavor to prove thoy are rUht by offering 1,000 at 23 cents. Tne book is lepletu with infoimatinn on nearly every branch of practical business work. Short cuts in flguies, wages and pay rolls. How to write business letters. Hints to coirespondlng clerks. How to make out accounts and nnoice.

NEW EDIFICE TO BE ERECTED. Veterans of the Late War Listen, to Me morial Day Sermons. TOPICS DISCUSSED BY CUT PASTORS The Sandusky Street Baptist Church in Allegheny was the scene of a social remi niscent gathering last night, and those in attendance made up one of Allegheny's most select congregations. It was final services in the old structure, for the Baptists are going to erect one, elegant and new, upon the ruins of the present one, the work of tearing down to begin to-morrow. Yesterday was Children's Day also, and the tasty decorations forthe morning service were left to add pleasure and entertainment to the evening. The young people bad little show in the ovenlng service.as it was mainly intended for the older ones to give short and pleasing tales of the old church before they would leave it. The opening story was given by Pastor Woodburn, who has been within the fold for 30 j ears, and a pastor lor 22. Prof. L. II. Eaton.who was 30 years super intendent of the Sunday schools, gave a short ht9tory of tho older members. Carl Stewait's reminiscences were humorous and sympathetic. He has been Superintendent of the Sundav schools three years, and he spoke of his experience in the church for thelasttenyeais. William Kimble, of Hobo ken, paid a touching tribute to tho departed dead who were In tho fold. The very interesting story of the evening w as tho tale of the early expel ience with the prejudice of the starting church. It was told by Brother William Cuttci. So greit was the prejudice against the coloied man that prominent members of the church would not admit coloied Baptists. But this was overcome by the more vigorous position taken by William bhadrack, tho organizer or the church, and the coloied man was ad mitted to worship God with the white. John A. Mllor, the piesent Superintendent of Sunday school, gave the last tale of the early church. This church was organized in 1835, over an old saloon on Robinson street, Allegheny. When the mosent ohuioh was built there was but $700 to put Into Its erection. The pastor went to the colored Baptist congregation in Richmond and was pie sen ted with Hal f a bushel of pennies. There has been raised for the elegant new edifice about $20,000 The seats w ill be of quartered oak w itli a frescoed auditorium capable of seating about 800 people. The pulpit will be of fine polished naic; also platforms and diessing rooms. The choir and organ will have their positions behind the min ister. The whole or the lower floor shall be arranged to make one room, though when necessary the large glass doors and partitions may be manipu lated so as to make six class rooms. There w ill bo no galleries. Three huge windows, 16 feet in diameter, will let in the light, and the pastor says the plans, if carried out, will make It one of the most costly and comfort able chinches ot the city. Services will be held in the new building on November 1, the dedication occurring later on. Until that time, services will be held regularly in Cyclorama Hall. A SERMON OK LEGISLATORS. International Morality Mast Be Based Upon Christian Ethics. The subject "Our Legislators," taken by the Rev. John H. I'rugh yesterday morning, in Grace Refoimed Church, at Grant street and Webster avenue, was well taken and consistently handled. The pastor dwelt upon the grave responsibilities l estlng upon Representatives and Senators in Congress, ana the necessity of prayers being offeied in their behalf. During the courso of his sermon he said: "The fact that irom overy section of the land petitions are being sent to our legisla tors, praying that Congress take a Arm stnnd lor the protection and purity of the Christian Sabbath, suggested the timeliness of the theme. Review lng the history of the Colonial days and that of the Revolution of '76, the hand of Godlscleirly seen in the affairs of the nation. In tho war between the Noithand the South, the light or God shines steadily. The 5outh accepted the terrible judzmont. She bowed her head and clasped the North's hand in fiaternal union, and now we have 'One flag, one land, one heart, one hand, one nation evermoi e.' And on sweet Memorial Day, the poople of the South, as well as those of tho Noith, strew flow ers over the green mounds of those who woie the blue and thegiay. "Whether the 13 Colonies should go to war in 1776, the leglslatois, gatheied in Philadel phia, determined it. Whether we should go to war lu ibui, the legislators In vt ashington pave the final decision. Whother we should settle tho 'Alabama' trouble, the "Bering Sea' dispute, by arms or arhitiation; whether wo should amicably settle affairs w Itli Italy nnd Chile; whether we should lebnild a Chinese wall that had been thrown down. Congress decides it. And we must keoD in touch with our legislators, and in touch with God for them. "The functions of our legislators is so far reaching that there is not a homo in all this country that is not happier or more dismal because of its influence. Christian people should intercede with God for our Legis lators. He Is the Supreme Ruler of the na tion. And our Renresentatives and Sena tors ought to refei every question to the law of.righteousness, as read by the light of con science. The people should use the power lnti listed to them, not for privato Interests, but with the sternest integrity toward God and the people. They ought never give up to a party w hat was meant for man kind, nor to a section what was ment for the nation. And in our intercourse with foreign nations, whethor they be stiong or weak. Christian or heathen, our foreign policy will be wrong and ultimately fatal, If it does not lest upon the principle that international morality has no separate code, but is only a wider ap plication of Christian ethics." THE CHRISTIAN IN POLITICS. A Religious and Patriotic Duty to Frevent Political Corruption. During the courso of his sermon on the obligations of Christian citizenship. Dr. Sutherland, of the Second Presbyterian Church, said last night: "Fiom mistaken notions as to the scope of the Christian re ligion upon the part of some and Indiffer ence upon the part of others who piofess the Christian name, public affairs, and es pecially those of municipal government in our largo centers of population in this coun-tij-, have been suffeied to go into the con tiolof conupt lings, whose solo aim has been to aggiandize nnd enrich themselves at the expense of the pockets, tho purity nnd the peace of the community. And the tioubleis that tho evils growing'ont or these al uses affect to a greatei or less degiee tho whole machtneiy or government, lor our cities, with their lai go lelative increase in population, aie becoming more and more dominant in State and national affair. If we who profess unselfish patriotism are, through our indifference, thus permitting those great cities of influence to become training schools in political trickery, ven ality and corruption, we are false to onr countiy nnd our God. "Tho nation tends to become purer and stronger onlv in so far as the sense ot popului responsibility is deepened. Ours, in name nt least. Is 'a government of the people, by the people and for the people.' That is our theoiy. and a noble theory it is, too. But alter nil, in practice is it not laigelv 'a government of the people, by the "rings"' andforthe "rings?"' But there ie. I am glad to say, hopeful signs of nn awaken ing, a I enewal or personnl interest, and that among Christian people, in public affairs. Patriotism needs to be cultivated, not simply by tho obseivance or holidays wnich servo to iccall the stmggles or the pist and tho triumphs achieved through the devotion and valorof tho hemes whose memory wo fondlv cherish, but also by faithfulness to the sacred obligations that ovennoie pres upon us in connection with the conduct of government and the stuping of legislation. The moie Intel est we take in public nflairs, piovidcd it be an unselfish Intel est, the deeper will grow onr lovofornur country and for the old flag that pioudly waves over us." f AN ADDRESS 10 RIPPEV POST. 1RESS 10 RIPPEV PC!

Mothers who could scarcely make their way to the church unassisted, planted flowers upon the graves of sons and daughter.

Store closes at 6 p.m., except Sat urdays. mySO-MWT SUNDAY SODA WATER Sold to Ten Thonsand Persons in a Market, Street Drnjj Store. FIVE CLERKS KEPT HUSTLING To Meet the Demand of Thirsty Souls filth a iMckcl Apiece, ARRESTED AND FIXED AT MIDNIGHT Ten thousand people slaked their Snnday thirst at a market street drugstore yester day and li. & O. Agent McClure was pow erless to punish them or the plucky dealer. The proprietor, William T. Espy, did not shut off the soda water fountain nor the cigar cases at midnight Saturday, as has been the custom, and never a moment from that time until Sunday midnight was the clerk behind the counter idle. During the early Sunday hours there was a continual coming and going of the thirsty ones, and after 9 o'clock, when people began to tnrn out to the churches and else where, it became necessary to increase the force of clerks to five men, inclnding the cashier, Mr. Espy himself. From that time until long after midnight the store was con tinually crowded. Several barrels of soda water and many botes of cigars were sold besides the regular sale of drugs permitted by the Blue Laws. People from all classes or society were among tne thlrstv patrons, and as he had announced through the newspapers and by large placards on tho store windows that he was selling, neonle went squares out of their way to show by their presence the support they were willing to give. Business and professional men of all branches seemed happy to avail themselves of the oppor tunity to slake their thirst on Sunday and nt least a dozen preachers were among the crowd that thronged the store during the day. At times the crowd was so great that the capacity of the store was taxed to hold them, and well-known business men of high standing were observed waiting for 10 to IS minutes to be served. In order to prevent a vexatious suit by the highly moral vonngmen who go around lor the Law and Order Society, a friend of Mr. Espy's went before a downtown Alderman at midnight nnd entered suit against him for violating the Blue Law by selling soda water, cigars and other prohibited articles on Sunday. The suit was entered and notice served iaslde of five minutes after the clock had turned the hour 01 midnight. By this the Law and Order Society is cut off from anv of the fines and costs they so dearly love to rake in, as only one suit can be entered lor the violations of one day. Mr. Espy last night said: "I do not defy the Law and Order Society. I appreciated the necessity forgiving the people some re freshment on Sunday. The tact that 10.C00 people patronized my place to-day shows that sucn a place is n necessity, and I have been assured by hundreds of the best men in the city to-day of their entire support. So long as my receipts are as large as they were to-day I will continue to sell and pay my fine regularly, nnd if any pressuro is brought against me I have money enough to take the case into the Supreme Court." A BROTHERLY FEELING Exists Between the Protestant and Catholic Soldiers of Sharpsbnrg: Some of the Sharpsburg people are nnder thelmpiession that Father Schwab would not let his members take part in the Dec oration Day services A DisrATCH reporter asked him abont the report yesterday afternoon. He said: "Mv people will fullv commemorate the day. I see no reason why thev should not, lor cer tainly Catholic and Protestant blood was shed side by side lor the same cause. Mv memDers are at liberty to attend any serv ices they want to. Tim only thing I ob jected towns allowing the Chaplain of the G. A. It. post tc hold services in our ceme tery. Like our Church, the cemetery is consecrated, and only followers of tho Catholic faith can hold services there. The Catholic soldier dead will bo tenderly cared for to-morrow. As to there being any hard feeling between the G. A. R. people and myseli, it Is absurd." HUGUS&HACKE DRESS GOODS.
