It is understood that while here they will look into the affairs of the $50, w9,000 Terminal combine. They have been informed by the In- terstate Commerce Commission of cer- tain irregularities in the organization of private drayage companies in St. Louis. The commission held recently that rr vate concerns could not operate their own transfer companies between St. Louis and East St. Louis and secure re- bates from the rairvads’ deiliverin, their freight at East St. Louis. This the commission held was discrimina tion against shippers, compelled to pai- ronize transfer companies, known as public carriers. Jhere are aiso some points involved in

Rock Island Stock Drops on Unfounded Report. ' Spec fal to the Post- Dispatch. NEW YORK, Dec. 15.—A story that! | the Rock Island company was about to) go into the hands of a receiver was cir- culated in Wall stree: yesterday and telegraphed all over the country. Ti was followed by a decline of 1% per cent /in Rock Island common and 1% per cen

| in the preferred stock. It was general!) believed that there is not the slightes founda.ion for the report. In fact, pos- itive denials were made by a member of the Rock ‘Island syndicate. The eyndicate, however, is said not’ ito be as harmonious as it was when Rock Is:and control was first secured, which probably gave rise to the receiv- ership rumors. The friction is due to the unexpected retirement of W. B. Leeds and his selling recently of all Rock Island holdings .0 the Campbe.i interests of St. Louls. The company Is; earning largely in excess of its dividend requirements and any change in the di- rectorate will not be due to lack of earnings. MISSOURIAN STOOD TEST.

Fichenberger, a contractor of Wells, Colo., is in St. Louis for his brother Frank, who has been missing since Nov. 22, when he left his brother's home for Mon- trose, Mo., where his wife lives on thetr smal] farm. When he boarded the train the missing man had transportation as | far as Kansas City and $9 in currency. | It is believed by the brother and by |

Charles Cheyenne searching Sheriff. Smith of Jefferson City that | Frank BEichenberger is the man who/| was held in jail there for observation eleven days ago. Sheriff Smith says that the man appearing mentally un- balanced or suffered from some strong drug appeared in Jefferson City Nov. 24. He gave the name of William Fritz | and said he had a wife in St. Louis. He expressed feats of men who he said pursued him because he was a non- union workman. He was discharged by the jail phys!l- cian Nov. 28, but returned the next day. He remained until Dec. 1, when he was transportation and put aboard a train for St.- Louts. Charles Bichenberger fears that his brother’s mind has given way. He formerly earned a living as a phrenolo- gist and mind reader. He says the miss- ing man did not drink, and there was no reason why he should do himself harm or seek to hide. Frank Eichenberger {is 27 years old, weighs 135 pounds, and is 5 feet 6 inches tall. He is of ight complexion, having blue eyes and light hair. When last seen in Chevenne Wells he wore a dark gray suit, a white shirt and a black derby. This description. tallies with that of Fritz.

A DELUGE OF FLOWERS

Miss Roosevelt and Her Fiance Receive Messages From Everywhere. Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, Dec. 15.--Miss Alice Roosevelt nuw realizes for the first time her great pupularity throughout the country. Hundreds of manifesta- tions and good wishes have been re- celved in the form of lettera, telegrams and personal calls. Local florists have been swamped with orders for American beauties and violets, and in more than one forist’'s shop the supply wae exhausted early yesterday. Everybody in Washington has seemed to be anxious to take this happiest of ways in showing Miss ment. Her apartments in the White House were far too small to accommo date the flowers, and as box after box arrived their contents were through the private apartments of the family. The telegraph messeer boys did a rushing business and formed a regular bicycle parade through the White House grounds. A stranger in Wash- ington, ignorant of the interesting news, would have been somewhat amazed at the stream of little uniformed boys in the President’s “front yard.’”’ Many of the boys carried as many as half a dozen messages at a time and an extra attendant was necessary at the White House door tic sign the blanks. Began Wednesday Eve. Congratulations began to pour in on Miss Roosevelt Wednesday night, when the news became public. Many heard the rumors of a pending an- nouncement, but not until the official bulletin was issued from the President's office was it believed authentic. While Miss Alice 1s busy receiving the attention that any girl would under the circumstances, and a whole lot more, Representative Longworth nus 1.0: been forgotten. Telegrams found their way to his home in Eighteenth street. Hiis colleagues in the House were quick to send their good wishes and hundreds of his fnends in Cincinnati wired their hearty congrutulations. Mr. Longworth tceday announced that after tho wedding he would take his bride for a short trip and would then return to the Eighteenth street home after the adjournment of They would then go on a Euro- peun tour, which might last’ several months, and their permanent home would be ‘made in Cincinnati. It was learned today that the en- gugement of Miss Roosevelt and Mr. Longworth was made known three days ago at an informal little luncheon party given at the White House.

Mrs. Jennie Young of 815 Destrehan street undertook to hang herself with her shawl early Friday in her cell at North Market Street Police Station. The shaw] broke and she fell to the floor. Ten minutes later she tried again, us- ing her scarf for a noose. A policeman cut the scarf, and she fell again. Then she tried to use her jacket, but the knot slipped.

i i A HONOR OR VIRTUE. Midshipman Kimbrough of the Annapolis Naval Academy proved that he was a man of honor by «standing on his -head until he became unconscious ‘and had to be taken to the hospital. At West Point a few years ago a favorite method of proving honor was to eat 67 prunes in 67 min- utes. Midshipman Cooper of the Naval Academy was suddenly stricken with paralysis in the classroom the other day. It is suspected that he, too, had proven himself a man of honor, but just what the -smethod was has not been discovered. ™% According to the philosophers of hazing at West “Point, Annapolis, Kenyon and other centers of high- er education, honor can be established by a man only by making a fool of himself, while his fellow students make brutes of themselves. It isa cere- mony, an initiation into the mysteries of manliness, through which the victim must pass before he can ;oe unerringly recognized as a man of honor. The idea is not found elsewhere. Only in institu- tions of higher learning is it taught that honor rests upon idiocy and manliness upon brutality. The queer thing about these West Point and An- » napolis exercises in honor and manliness is that they are winked at by men who have proven them- : ‘selves manly and honorable by a long course of pub-- ie service of the most arduous nature. Not one of hem but would be ashamed to perform the fooler- mes of these initiations, but all of them, or most of -gathem, seem to think such pranks of barbarism are qnecessary. “oe The way to abolish hazing is to abolish it. ——" Then ¥ Gf the young men were made to hear less about hon- or Pe 2s. -annually by a single monopoly. ts 5 és . _ Mr. Longworth used to be a champion golfer. on a or and more about virtue they would be the better for it.

‘ A PRIZE ¥ PLAN. Froin Profitable Advertising. a prize of $500 for a plan to increase the population of the city to a million. THe prize was won by H. FE. Lesan, president of the Lesan Advertising Co. Mr. Lesan’s idéa is to accomplish the desired object by first increasing the industriés of St. Louis, and pro- poses @ campaign advértising the advantages of St. Louis, and of the St. Louis territory, and exploiting the label ““Made in St. Louis,’’ as the mark of supe- riority cf manufactured products.

LETTERS. FROM THE PEOPLE A GOOD. WORD FOR ‘THE USURER. To the Editér of the Post- Dispa In deténse | Of \the matey. at ‘I ‘desire to state that several .years ago I. bought.a piano on the in- stallment plan, and after paying all but $40, the piano house threaténed’to take same away. Being out of employmeit at the time, I was unable to pay them, and as they insisted upon their payment, I was forced to go to a money lender and have them settle the account. While I paid the money lender a good rate of interest I was perfectly satisfied to do s0, which I did, thereby saving my piano, which would other- wise have been taken from me. I have since learned that the rate of interest paid to the money lenders was very small compared to the, profit realized by the piat:o dealer. and I am very thankful to'the money lender tor saving my piano for me. I also desire to state that my dealings with the money lender were all that an hofitrable person could expect—square and fair. I paid what agreed to and had no trouble whatever. In defense of the money lender, I wish to say that you ¢an be a money lender and a gentle- man, a saloon keeper and a gentleman, as well as a banker and a gentleman. MISS M. W. SOME GIRLS MUST WORK. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. In ae of the.working girls, myself being one of them, 1 wish to thank Walter H. Simon for his kind words in the Post-Dispatch of Dec. 11. It is exceedingly refreshing after reading those of the English kkeeper and many others.- lt is very discouraging, after a hard day’ 8 work, to pick up an evening paper and find one’s self so a demned, and I ask, is it any wonder so many giv the struggle? Were there more men with the P Kol ple or Mr, Simon, fewer of us would be compelled ‘to g> out into the world and take the places our lords t) claim. . A CRY FROM M MAN CHESTER. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Permit me a little space in behalf of the small outlying towns which, although so near to St. Louls, have the poorest accommodations fmaginable.
