THE ST. LOUIS MURDER.

AWMTIO-iAL PARTICULARS,

The following additional particulars relat ing to tho St. Louis tragedy aro of interest:

Chief of Detectives Burke said to-night: "Tho dead man is undoubtedly C. A. Preller, who arrived- at the hotol on the 3rd instant. Ho was undoubtedly killed by Maxwell, who rogistered there on the 31st March, The murder took place in Max well's room, and tho trunk in which the body was stored was one which Maxwell brought with him from the East. On last Tuesday he bought the second trunk at a store on Broadway. Into this he trans ferred tho books, clothing, papers, instru ments, photographic views and other articles, probably in a great hurry, as they were found in confusion. He also placed the tray of his old trunk in this to give him more room to pack the body in. His intention thon was probably to remove this trunk, which could pass out of the hotel withtholcastfiUßpicion. There was dangerof discovery, of course, at any minute, and on this account ho probably changed his plans and decamped, and to avoid discoveiy he went away without taking any of his effects with him.

Broiler's trunks arc of much bettor quality than thoso of Maxwell's, being mado of lino leather, and their contents indicate that their owner was a gentleman of means and culture. Tho trunks have on thcin labols of tho Cunard Steamship Company, and tho Continental Hotel, Philadelphia, whoro ho occupied room 180 on March 2G.

Maxwell generally drossed in a brown tweed suit of English cut, a Nowmarket ovorcoat, and a high Derby hut. In his manner ho was very ell'ominate, which he even carried so fur as to walk with short, mincing stops, like a woman.

_. his afternoon tho body of I'reller was exposed on a slap in tho exhibition room at tho Morguo, with the following descrip tion givon by Superintendent Began : Tho deceusod man was about sft 9in in hoight, weighing übout 1701b, black hair, eyes of a brown colour ; woro white knit drawers. ISo other clothing camo with the body. Ho was about 22 or 2!! years old, Tho body is very much decomposed, has beon dead 10 or 12 days, tongue protrud ing, largo blisters on both lcya. There is a cross cut into the llcsh on tho breast.

'lho following telegram found among the papers of Preller, is the best clue to the relations of Preller and Maxwell:

"Boston, March 19,1585, "(.!. A. Preller, Bolvidore Hotel:

" Yes. Could go direct to Auckland from bore. Will write Philadelphia to-morrow. —W. H. Li'Ni.o.. MaxwkMj."

From a letter from tho steamship com pany it is inferred that Prollor sailed from England for this country ou tho Cophalonia Jan. 21, ISSS, on a commercial tour of this country and Austrnliu, Tho tologram givon abovo would indicalo that Maxwell agreod to accompany him to Australia, Tho articles found in Maxwell's room, which ho hud abandoned in his llight, aro believed to bo worth about $1,000. Boston, April )..—lt is learned that Walter H. Lennox Maxwell arrived lv this city by tho steamer Ckphalonia in tho oarly prut of January. Ho boarded with a Mrs .'ook, at 1,508, Washington-street, and soon became acquainted with tho attendants in a neighbouring drug storo, to whom ho represented that ho was about to open a doc tor's ollico on Shawmut Avonuo, On tho strength of this staicmont, a number of prescription? blanks woro givon him, but thoy were novor filled out or returned. In conversation with tho elorks ho casually mentioned his acquaintance with Prollor. Maxjvoll's manners showed him to bo in tensely English, and ho frequently ex pressed his contempt for tho so-called Irish agitators. Ho also mentioned the fact of his having friends in Allston. Maxwell loft Boston suddonly about tho last of March, and nothing has t-ii-co been known of hi. whereabouts.

Richard \V, Ovens ia ono of tho loading members of tho Plymouth Brothorn, who hold religious exercises overy evening at 7, Seventh Avonuo. Do said last night:— "Mr Prollor camo to mo about two years ago with a lottor nf introduction from ono of tho brothers in London. Mr Prollor travels tor a largo London firm dealing in fancy trimmings, and his father is a member of tho firm. Hoth aro members ot our sect. Young Mr Preller was n line-looking young man, very quiet in his ways, and a conscientious Christian. Ho has boon thoroughly educated, and has travelled all over tlio world. Ho always dressed richly, and carried largo sums of money. Ho arrived here from London on his third trip to this country about eight weeks ago ami called on mo. Mo stopped at tho Bolvidore, as ho said it was the quietesthotel ho could find. He didn't like tho Union Square, because thorovvore so many actresses thero. Ho was hero nearly every evening, nnd always wont to our Brtilo readings. Ho left tho city about thrto weeks ago." " Who is Dr. Maxw.ll .'' " All 1 know about Maxwell is that ho camo ovor from London in the same steamer with Prollor. When thoy arrived here Maxwell wont on somewhere. Prollor never mentioned him. Some timo before ho loft, despatches woro exchanged botweon them, arranging for a mooting at St. Louis. Thence thoy woro going on togothor to San Francisco, and through India homo.

ST MATTHEWS DEBATING SOCIETY.

Thk inaugural meeting in connection with St. Matthew's Literary and Dobating Socioty was hold on Monday ovoning. There was a fair attendance,tho audionco including sovoral ladies. Kov, W. Tobbs, President of tho Socioty, occupied tho chair.—Tho Chairman said thoy had fixed upon an un fortunate night tor thoir opening meeting. That evening was also tho ono choson for tho inaugural mooting of tho Auckland Institute, tho Brosident of which (Mr Pond) was ono of thoir Committeemen. Another of their Committeemen (Mr Doonin) was not in good health, nnd thero foro unable to go out in tho cold. Thoir Vico President (Ur. Dawson), too had been called upon to attona a child that was supposed to be dying, and it was therefore probable ho would not be ablo to reach tho meeting before its closo. His abeonce was tho more unfortunnto from tho fact that ho was to havo delivered the inaugural address. Tlu Chairman thon proceeded to urge upon his hearers tho advantages of connection with a socioty of this kind, St, Matthew's Literary and Dobating Society, ho said, was not oxclusive, and thoro woro no religious or political tests to entitle young men to bocomo mombors. They would be glad to soo amongst thoir mombors any young men who were dosirous of montal improvement. Thoro wore in tho colonies very few vantage fields where young men could come togother for -jocial intercourse and interchange of ideas, Tho speaker proceeded to refer to tho fact that thero were many men of Ifnf! versity education whose sphere of usefulness in tho world might be benefited by associa tion with a socioty of this kind. Then views would bo broadened and their minds enlightened by contact with their fellows, but they lived to themselves to such an ox tent that they did everything by book, and were, ho might say, all at angles, running ever in a certain groove, and perfectly un lit to mingle with their fellow men. In our course through lifo, too, it was necessary that wo should all havo a certain amount of personal influence, and this end was at tained by tho development of social qualities resulting from the interchange of thoughts and ideas between men of different shades of opinion. Societies of this kind were vuluablo in fostering good fellowship, in providing us with friends valuable, in after life, in giving us the profitable company of other men,in bringing us into contact with other mtnds, and in givipg us other thoughts. Ho urged thoso present who were not already members to join tho Society at once. The meeting then proceeded to tho arrangement of a programme for tho fort nightly meetings. Papers were promised on tho following subjects i—" Fires and thoir Extinction," "Astronomy," " Spec trum Annly.ia," "Water," "Hailways.'' It was agreed that tho ladies of the parish bo invited to bocome honorary incm'bcj-s,and it was understood that an endeavour would be made to arrange a challenge debate with one of the sister societios. It was also decided to have a spelling bee, in which members of other societies should be in vited to compete, and to dovot-e evenings to prize tales and prize essays. The ladies were also requested to provide a musical evening during tho session, and a resolution was passed inviting J.)r, Dawson to give his inaugural address at the next meeting.

BOURKE-STREET BY NIGHT.

AMONG THE BOYS.

The Secret Out.

[BT TBE TRAMP.]

Standino with one's back to that huge, unsightly mass of bricks, mortar, and wood work which in years to come may, when it issues Irom its present embryo state, adorn the head of Bourke-street, and looking down, as it were, into the valley below, formed by the intersection of Elizabeth street, some slight idea may be gained of the vast population, resources, and business of this London of the South. It is Saturday night. A clear, calm, balmy night, heralded in by one of Australia's magnificent sunsets ,-a night on which this little world of ours is all abroad with "its sisters, its cousins, and its aunts." All is life, movement, and brightness. Far us the eye can see, the broad pavements are covered with a living stream, that flows gradually on, overlapping its orthodox channels as it steadily increases in volume, until it becemes one vast sea of human faces, swaying hither and thither like the undulating waves of tho mighty ocean. Omnibuses—and they are legion pass and repass, heavily freighted, while in "the distance the varied hues of the many coloured lamps, interspersed here and there with the most brilliant and silvery scintilla tions of the electric lights, lend to the scene an additional enchantment, as difficult to depict in words as in imagination to por tray. Veni, vidi, scribendi. In close proxim ity, and evidently keenly watching the great human panorama with interest and enjoy ment, stand a little group under the reran dah of a well-known hotol. They are our English cricketing friends, men who have travelled through all the principal cities in the colonies, and one of them expresses tbe opinion that he has scon "naught the like." One and all appear in good health and spirits, even to " the infant," whose sudden transition from the back of abuckjumper to mother earth recently caused his friends to opine that his hasty dissolution of partner ship with tho leather had been for good. A gentlemanly, genial, frank, outspoken team are these Englishmen, with a courteous captain, and a genuine "lily white " man as manager. As old friends we come again together. Matches won, lost, drawn, and in perspective, form the theme of conversation, and rightmerrilyaremany amusing Incidents of the tour recounted. Not but what they tbey sufferedjome hard knocks in their cam paign as "Knights of the Willow*," the wicket-keeper of the team more especially, as ovidenced by a damaged finger and thumb. "Never mind," said the namesake of our England's greatest statesman, "we have a capital reinody for those kinds of acheß and pains, as our follows have found out. I will say that much for St. Jacob." Leaving our visitors, I mingle in tho crowd which still moves in an endless procession up and down what has been facetiously termed the half-crown side of Bourke-street. Of every class, age, height, and appearance, truly a thoroughly representative throng, in which tho gentler ccx—bar a Bprinkling of viragos—appear to predominate.. The steady, hard-working artisan, arm in arm with tbe partner of his joys and sorrows ; tho blushing maiden and her escort; the over-dressed, ogling, profligate, would-be mashor; and the loud-mouthed,bra_ed-faced lurrikin—one and all are hero brought for tho nonco into close though not desirable proximity. The shops are all aglow, the windows tastefully and in many cases artis tically dressed, and business for the hour reigns triumphant. Meditating on the pro gress Melbourne has mado in the past few years, and still making headway as a unit in tho densely-packed crowd, my carcor was suddenly checked by a hearty shako and a "Hullo! is that you, old fellow." Jarvis, by all that's wicket I Everyone knows Jar vis, or ought to know tho celebrated South Australian cricketer. He is all there. _We adjourn and fraternise. "I caught it in that last match," he Bays, as he discloses to viow a bruiso of Mahdi-faco colour the size of a boarding-house pancake. "It was a rogulor stinger at tho timo." Expressing an opinion that it must bo very painful, I was mot with tho roply, "Not a bit of it; I always use St. Jacob's Oil whenever l i!_t n nasty knock, and that relievos mo instantly. In fact, I may say that I have groat faith in it, as it is a splendid thing in tho cricket field." Conversing on things in goneral.woagain rosumo surporegrinations Grossing Swanston-strcet our attention i. drawn to an enormous crowd, who, to all appearance, are intent on ono object ,as thoy sway and surge in the vain attempt to gel closor to ono of tho windows of somo busi n(-s establishment. What is the excito inont ? Is it n fight, or has someone fallen down in a lit? "Nothing of the kind,' says my companion, "you must havo heard of Boyle and Scott; this is their place, n reuular athletes' houso you'll find. They post all telegrams and reports of various matches; that accounts for the crowd. Come along, I'll introduce you.'.' By dint of perseverance, power and pres sure, wo ultimately arrive at the de sired haven, whoro tho wickets cease from troubling, and the batsmen aro at re-t Busy and all as were tho two partners, exoculing a large order for an adjacent colony thoy found timo after introduction t) do tho honours of tho establishment Every requisite nocoEßary for cricket, foot ball, tennis, la crosro, boxing, fencing, nnd a host of other athletic, manly games and oxercisos v ere to be found here ; in fact, ii was a right-of-way out tho most varied and completo stock I havo ever scon in th* colonies. You can go in, pay your mone*. and tako your choice, nnd come out in a few minutes completely equipped from crown io role either a- a crioketer, footbal'er -or any other man As an iiis.tmco of tho reputa tion of tho firm, I may mention tho' among other ordors I hoy were con • Dieting was one for the Klover Land—laying tho foundation, as it wen of a future Heathen Chineo Eleven. A* cending to the upper Hoor of their extensiw premises, I was shown an enormous am mapnifieent stock of bats, mado to tho o _dei of Mr Boyle by the boet makers in tin mother country. The great Canadian game la orosse, is now making rapid strides ii Australia, and to koop pace with tho de mand, Messrs Boylo and Scott havo had made to their order, and selected by ono ol the best judges in Montroal.a grand eollec tion of la crosse sticks, which nro woi' worthy of inspection. Leaving the businei-. portion of the establishment, we entered » nicely-furnished billiard room, which i provided for those patrons of the proprietoi . who at evo prefer tho. green baize to tit emerald sward. The comnany, thouu' large, was seleot, comprising ne'ab oricketers and footballers. Even tho co; - venation was highly savory of the crickt i field, "Three out for a hundred," said >, redoubtable batsman, whose name is very suggestive of a cool season, as he laid down the evening paper. "What match was that?" was asked by an unsuspecting listener. "Why at Tamai, British versus Arabs!" was the rejoinder,and then his inter rogator understood cricketing phraseology. Bpeaking to Mr Alexander, tho genial manager of the Australian Eleven, on his experiences of the recent tour, I casually mentioned the hard knocks and bruisos some of his team must have sustained. In so doing I struck oil with a vengeance. "For twenty years," said Mr Boylo, "I have played cricket and have received many a nasty blow, but pf lato years I can take them like my breakfast, as I have found +hat by the use of St. Jacob's Oil lam f i-ee from any pain or trouble. It's capital staff, and I never go into the field without a bottlo in case of accident." "In that respect," said Mr Alexander, "lean endorse your opinion, as while tho Austra lian Eleven where in England thoy used it repeatedly for bruises, and found it of the greatest service." At this stage aMr Law ler, of the Essendon Football Club, ontc-red the.room. and hearing tho subject matter of oonv rsitlon, chimed in with, " What, St Jacob's Oil? that s tho thing for bruises. 1 got some nasty blows in football matches and it gave mo instant relief. You a=k Crawford, of tho Carlton Football Club.if you have any doubts on its merits." After such testimony in its favour, of cour.e I could express no doubt on the sub ject; but, to clinch the matter in that respect, Mr Scott added, "I have used it for years, and can afford to laugh at knocks and bruises, and I may say that I have strongly recommended it to all my friends engaged in athletic sports." As time was ■jomg on apace, and business called away the two partners, we again turned into Bourke-street, which was still thronged, although the hour was somewhat late Bidding my South Australian companion Adieu, I wended my way homewards fully impressed with the soenes of activity business, and life I had seen on every hand! and thoroughly satisfied that St. Jacob's Oil ranks preeminently to the fore as the athletes friend generally, and the cricketer m 4 19 otballer'B J D particular,

The amounts collected at tbe princi pal ports last month were :—Auckland, £24,082 ; Wellington, £20,474 ; Lyttelton and Christchurch, £13,099; Dunedin, £29,730. The beer duty last month for tho colony was £4,185; while for the cor responding month of last year it was £4,219. The principal amounts last month were: Auckland, *947 ; Wellington, £391; Christ church, £869; Dunedin, £467. Chambers of Commerce and the South Sea Trade. The Napier Chamber of Commerce having applied to Government for assistance to send a delegate to the islands of the South Pacific, with the view of obtaining informa tion regarding the best means of opening up trade with .the islands, Sir Julius Vogel has replied granting a free passage by the subsidised steamer. He is also in com munication with the Chambers of Com merce at Auckland, Wellington, Christ church, and Dunedin, offering similar con cession, upon condition that the reports of the delegates shall be published, and not furnished in the form of confidential re ports.

The Intercolonial Cable Rates.

With reference to the suggested reduc tion of cable rates, Sir Julius Vogel informs me that the subsidy to the Cable Company terminates next year. The Cable Company having applied to the Governments of New South Wales and New Zealand for & further subsidy towards the maintenance of the cable, the New Zealand Government bas replied to the effect that the cable now being in good working order should be maintained wholly by those who use it, and they therefore declined to join in a further subsidy. Tho Victorian Government then asked the New Zealand Government to reduce tho charges on the land lines ever which the cables messages are transmitted, but Government have declined to do so, failing to see why the senders of cable messages should enjoy a privilege which the Government are at present unable to extend to thoso who übo the land linos for ordinary purposes.

A BROOKLYN HORROR.

A Building Falls, Burying the Inmates.

Brooklyn, May s.—Shortly after 9 o'clock this morning there was a crash at 55 Atlantic avenue, Brooklyn, and the people on looking up from tho streets saw that the roof of the building had fallen in, and that a portion of the walls had toppled. They could hear the screams of the people injured, and it seemed but a moment when a volume of smoke rolled up, showing that the building had taken fire. Hundreds ot people, men, women, and girls, wore at work at tho various branches of business carried on in the building, which covered considerable ground, having wings which extended through from Atlantic to State streets. As soon as the crash of the falling roof was heard, hundreds of those employed in the building endea voured to make their way out by every avenue of escape, and some who were tho last to reach tho street appeared with begrimed faces and blood stream ing from their wounds, which they had received from the falling timbers. The excitement in the neighbourhood became very great, and in a short time the wives of the men who were known to be working in the building and the parents of tho girls who were employed, blocked tho streets. Three alarms of lire were sent out, and the services of ajarge .number of the police had to bo ca'led in to koep the peo plo cut of the way of danger. It was reported at first that about one hundred girls, who were employed in the Milo Hynes Bolting Works, which was oa tho top floor where the roof fell in, were killed ; but it appears that most of the girls mado thoir escape by climbing on the roofs of tenement houses.

The buildings were occupied by 30 small manufacturers, and thero were abont 500 men and women employed therein. It was a five-story, erected 27 years ago. The woodwork burned like tinder. When the firemen arrived they found many young women at the windows scream ing wildly for help, their retreat being cut off, and tho firemen quickly ran up ladders, but the girls wtre hemmed in, and many 101 l back into the flames before help could reach them. The character of the building hindered the efforts of the firemen.

It was ascertained that the engineer of the Factory, Daniel J. Lowiy, was one of tho victims. He was killed by the falling of the left wall.

The cause of the fire was the overturning of the boilers of a soap factory on the second floor.

Tho west wall of tho middle wing on Atlantic Avenue had settled, nnd workmen were screwing it up with jacks. The middle jack had been screwed up too high, and it was lowered, when the whole weight of the wall came upon the two jacks at the end, and it fell with a crash.

Ten or twelve have been taken out severely injured.

Three bodies have been taken from the ruins burned beyond recognition. Chief Livingston thinks there .were at least twenty-five people in the ruins; may be more.

The loss is estimated at §300,000 ; insur ance, unknown.

The scene at the police station, where tho dead boriieß which were removed from the ruins were conveyed, was a pitiful one. A bedquilt wes thrown over the bodies, and many called to see if they could not recog nise the undistinguishable mass, All failed, however, and all statements were simply guesswork. The legs of one of the bodies were burned to the knees, and the two arms to tbe elbows, The other bodies wfro merely a mass of black cinders. The bodies are all those of men. When the father of the missing boy, John McGrath, went to the police station, he fainted twice, and when he was able, gave vent to the most piteous moans. "O, Sergeant," he cried, " do tell me my poor boy, my only support, is not dead Ob, bring him back to me," The man wa. getting deliiiius, and had to be removed. His son perished beyond doubt. Numbers of women and girls came during the day looking fqr lost relatives. To-night Detective D^ly arrested Frank W. Miller, a Lquse-.mavor, on complaint of Coroner Manninger, for orimlnal careless ness, for improperly putting girders atid posts in the building at 55 Atlantic Avenue, thereby causing the walls to fall, thus causing many deaths. The full loss of life will probably not be known for some days, till the dcftris is cleared away. The " World" puts tho casualty list at ovp. thirty, tho '«?un" at sixteen, t-tg <'Tribune" at eighteen, and the " Times" says it is unknown.
