THE MEMBEll FK01I ST. I0DIS.

A Curious Character to be Introduced Intoihe New Consres.

Correspondence Richmond Dispatch.There will be some odd specimens in the

next House of Representatives, and peoplewho happen to meet a few of the new mem-bers

16

will wonder how they ever got to Con-gress. Mr. Niedringhaus, of St. Louis,who will succeed John J. O'Neill, pres-ent Chairman of the Committee on Labor,is a manufacturer of kitchenwnre nndhas a fortune estimated at between $1,000,000

13

and S2.000.b00. He obtained some valuablepatents and made his money in a compara-tively 20

short period. He doesn't reside inthe district w men ne is to represent, bat mibig fnctory is in the district and he employs 22

more than 1,000 men, women find children.Outside ot business matters in which he is

directly interested, Niedringhaus is a thor-oughly ignorant man. He absolutely knows 21

nothing of public men and affairs. It isestimated that the Republican managers in ISSt. Louis who put him up made him carrythe whole ticket in the district, and theybled him for "campaign expenses" to thetune of 575,000. He was being introduced 27

around the capitol this week, and when pre-sented

28to a man as well known as Senator

Hissock, of NewtSTork, said: "Glad to meet 29

you, Jlr. Hiscock. "What State are vouirora, sir?" On meeting Senator Sherman,and others equally as prominent be askedthe same question. Mr. Niedringhaus, it isuseless to remark, hasn't made a verv goodimpression among his brethren in the Re-publican,
