BY BEN BLOW, The Post-Dispatch Special Commis- sioner Sent to San Francisco to Find St. Louisans. OAKLAND, Cal., April 23.— At last, after having gone through the demolished city of San Fran- cisco, I am able to report to the Post-Dispatch that it is unlikely that a single St. Louisan lost his uife or was even injured by the earthquake or the consequent fires. Naturally the chaotic éonditions that prevail in San. Francisco, Oakland and elsewhere in this im- mediate vicinity makes the search for individuals difficult. There are more than two hundred thou- sand homeless here and to hunt among them for a few hundred seems well nigh hopeless. A bureau of information has been established by the Post-Dis- patch in Qakland. .

and the buildings were not shaken down by the shocks so that the inhabitants had plenty of-opportunity to escape. This leads me to believe that all St. Loulsians who were in San Francisco last week are safe and will be heard from in due time. ‘Mail is now being delivered in San Francisco and gradually order is being created from chaos.

COPENHAGEN, April 2%. — Seventy Danish fishermen are believed to have been lost in the reported foundering of three trawlers off Iceland, recently, POLLARD IS INDORSED. His Pledge System Works Well in Sweden. “Judge Pollard he bane -gude fellar,”’ Says a writer for the Sannigsmannen, a weekly paper published at Stockholm, Sweden, where the famous “Pollard pledge’ has. been adopted by police jus- tices. The article contains a warm in- dorsement of the system and. points-out that a London judge who recently said that three years in Jail is the only cure for a drunkard is talking without thinking. The writer says that the Jail treatment works the greatest hardship on the wives and children of men who affect the flowing bowl and in only a few cases leads the 6 Gers to reform. The -Pollard pede idea .is rapidly sweeping. around he world. It has worked like a charm in Bonnie Scot- land, New South Wales and in several Eastern cities.

Severe Shocks at Grant’s Pass and Glendale of 20 Seconds Duration Move Furniture About, Smash Windows ‘and Cause Panic Among the Inhabitants. SAN FRANCISCO, April 23.—The fire which seemed to hav died out yesterday broke out with renewed vigor in the coal ers north of the Ferry Building shortly after midnight. The f reached these bunkers Saturday, but was apparently checked a: a hard fight, although the blaze stubbornly resisted all efforts of t firemen to extinguish it. Unless the flames can be subdued, there is grave danger si they will eat their way across to the docks north of the Ferry Building and reach this great structure, cutting San Francisco | from the world. The fire is burning fiercely. ae Over in Oakland rain began to fall at 12:30 o’clock and the downpour still continues, causing much discomfort to ee: camped in the open air, whose families are without shelter.

The sufferers have been promptly and completely isolated, and the physicians believe there is no danger of an epidemic. There is some sickness of lesser severity in some other camps.

The sanitation problem becomes increasingly difficult. House- holders and eampers have been ordered to remove garbage and refuse to the curblines. The Board: of Health has impressed wagons into service to cart away this debris. The supply of chloride of lime is nearly exhausted. The great question to be answered is, how to get enough water into the city. THE WATER PROBLEM. Experts of the Spring Valley Water Co., who have thoroughly

examined the mains and reservoirs of the system, have reported that the company has in its reservoirs enough water to supply the city at the regular rate of 25,000,000 gallons per day for 600 days. Already pipes have been repaired in certain sections and a sup- ply of 7,000,000 gallons per day is coming through Ocean View from Lake Merced. About 1,000,000 gallons of this is being consumed daily by Ocean View and the other towns along the pipe li ve 6,000,000 gallons daily is reaching and will continue to re city.

Within a few hours another supply of 6,000,000 gallons per day »will be poured into the city from College Hills.. This will furnish water to the northern section of the city. Already water is being supplied to the Black Point and Pacific Heights districts and with an additional supply of 4,000,000 gallons daily, which is assured . from lines that will be repaired within a day or two, the city will within four days be receiving a daily supply of between 16,000,000 and 17,000,000 gallons, practically half the amount that was be- ing furnished to the entire city prior to the earthquake. Cars and steamers laden to their capacity with food and med- “ical supplies are pouring into the city from every point along the goast and throughout the State. Thousands of Chinese are camping in open lots. Few, even of “the richest merchants, saved anything of value. The subscriptions of money to date totals nearly $12,000,000. PIANOS IN REFUGE CAMPS. A spirit approaching gayety now animates some of the refugees. . A’number of families that saved their household effects had their » pianos removed to Golden Gate Park. Toward dusk the melody of * these instruments helps to lighten the gloom, while the camps join in hymns or ragtime. During the day the girls go round with wreaths of flowers on their heads, for they have no hats. Many weddings have followed the disaster. Women driven from their homes and left destitute have appealed to the men to whom they were engaged. They have been married promptly. an hour.

Since the first day of chaos an increase in the marriage licenses issued was noticed by County Clerk Cook. This increase is getting greater. Yesterday morning seven marriage licenses were issued in ‘Tt don’t live anywhere,’ is the answer given in many cases when the applicant for a license is asked where his place of resi- dence is, ‘‘I used to live in San Francisco.’’ A wedding took place at the relief bureau in Oakland last mid- night. Despite the fact that the bridegroom had only $1.30, the newly married couple looked cheerfully on the prospect that con- fronted them and departed happy and hopeful. It may be added, incidentally, that five children were born last night in Golden Gate Park, making 18 births in this park. Eight babies have been born in Buena Vista Park. A maternity hospital has been established at Emeryville. - A number of large manufacturing com- panies have arranged to receive and care for refugees at their respective plants along the eastern shore of the bay, where 2650 persons can be accommodated. Arrangements are now being made to provide for the gubernational election which must be held in this city n@xt faH, and a meeting of the election com- mission has been held for this purpose. The San Francisco Real Estate Board met in the synagogue yesterday and took measures for the protection of ten- ants who have suffered through the fire. Steps were also taken to secure the re- mission of any penalty imposed on tax- payers for the non-payment of the sec- Ond installment of taxes for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1906. Fully 30,000 refugees are being fed by ‘the Government at the Presidio and provisions are bonntifully supplied to all who make application, and as yet there is no suffering from hunger. Tents are being distributed..Over 10,000 have been given ang the authorities in- tend continuing the distribution so long - gs the supply lasts.

Taggart of Los An- geies, a most: distinguished physician, who had charge of a corps of nurses at the relief hospital in the Crocker Grammar School on Page street, near Baker, was instantly killed today. An automatic revolver dropped out of his pocket. It was discharged and the bul- let passed through his heart. Dr. Tag- gart was one of California's prominent physicians. Chief D. J. Sullivan of the city Fire Department, died Sunday morning at the géneral hospital at the Presidio from the injuries he received while asicep in the firehouse on the morning of the earthquake. ‘‘Eddie’’ Graney, the well-known sporting referee, was with Chief Sullivan from the time the wound- ed man was removed from the firehouse until Mr. Sullivan's death. Mr. Graney today stated that Chief Sullivan never knew there was a fire. He was not told the conflagration was’ raging lest his anxiety to fight it would hasten his death.

St. Louis churches raised $3800 yesterday, and two train loads of tents, medical supplies and provisions were shipped to San Francisco.

The new- comers are expected to increase rapidly every day from this time on. It has been estimated by officials that this city will be able to care for 60,000 of the homeless women and children of San Francisco. The railroad companies will gladly transport free of charge all the destitute who may wish to come South. The stories related by those who ar- rived today are as varied @s human ex- periences could well be. Hundreds of them have been more or less seriously injured in innumerable ways, ang most of them have met financial ruin as well. Dozens wore bandages, carried arms in slings, and exhibited countless evidences of other bodily hurts. Those who are destitute are being cared for as fast as they arrive. The relief measures in this city are so ex- tensive that it is quite impossible to de- scribe the least portion of them in de- tail. The whole population of the city, it seems, is engaged in the most earnest efforts to relieve the sufferings and ameliorate the misfortunes of the strick- en people. ; as ay . rovisions w eave Ege i 1c ad ghomvetg the Southern Pacific for Oakland tonight.

Baker of New York was asleep in the fourth floor of the St. Francis Hotel in San Francisco when the first earthquake shock came. “YT was awakened by the violent rat- tling of the windows,”’ he said, “and for a moment [ thought a hurricaae must be blowing. As I lay there I sud- denty felt .a strange movement. This was as if the building were alive, hump- ing its back and writhing in some aw- ful pain. It was something which did not seem to belong anywhere except in a nightmare, and yet I Knew I was awake. “T got up and put on some clothes and went into the bathroom. There the iit- tle tiles were wriggling their way out of the walls and dancing across the floor. When 1 went out in the hall I was sur- prised to find how quietly everybody was taking it. I suppose we were all much frightened, but I did not see any- one in a panic. “A woman came up to me and asked: ‘Can you tell me if the elevator is run- n ” ing? “f told her I thought it was too early. “When I went. downstairs ai clerk warned me to look out for the chande- liers in the lobby. When I saw them I knew what it meant. Those huge | }

masses of dangling cutglass were swing- ing back and forth at the bottom of their 12-foot rods till they nearly touched the cefling on either side. “A little later I met B. A. Kaiser and his wife. They had stayed in bed dur- ng the shocks, declaring that it was the safest thing to do. Together we Went out on the streets. At first I thought the whole city was wrecked. I don’t wonder at anybody thinking San Francisco had been torn to pieces by the earthquake.’’ _ ‘I witnessed the burning of Chicago in 1871 and was in Charleston when an earthquake wrought great destruction there, but the San Francisco horror far outshadowed those dire calamities,’ said Dr. Frank Barker of Rochester, N. Y¥ who arrived in the city on the Owl train today. He continued: “I cannot belteve that the loss of life in San Francisco was confined to meré hundreds. I would. be the last to stretch the facts, but I-am convinced that several thousand persons suffered death. “The soldiers and citizens are doing heroic work everywhere. Thieves and looters are dealt with summarily. I personally witnessed the sudden death of several ghouls. Saw Ghoul Hanged. “I saw a fellow cutting rings from the hands of a dead woman on Bush street, just below Sacramento, There Was a rush of men and within a few minutes the robber was dangling from a pole. One innocent man met his death at the hands of the military. He was the cashier of a bank and re- fused to obey the command to halt, but continued to run into the bank building. He was shot. “Another fellow robbed a_ coffee store and was found selling his spoils In the street by a policeman. He ran, but was halted by a bullet. I don’t Know whether he was killed or not.” Napkins for Stockings. There was much sadness, mingled with not a little merriment, in the train that entered the Southern Pa- cifie Depot yesterday afternoon. The most Wwoe-begone passengers were members of an orchestra who had lost instruments worth, in the aggre- Bate, $25,000. One of the jolliest persons on the train was Conductor Vigna, who Had lost not only all of his valuables but most of his clothing as well. Forced to run undressed from his hotel, he had not been able to procure his stockings, and arrived in Los Angeles with his feet wrapped in napkins, loaned him by a Pullman porter. “But I didn’t .lose my _ life,” smiled Vigna, “and I thank God for that.

In fact, the escape of the Cliff House is one of the curious fea- tures of the disaster which has be- fallen San Francisco. The famous Sutro baths, located near the Cliff House, with its hundreds. of thousands of square feet of glass roofing, also was practically un- harmed.

Chief Justice Beatty and Associate Jus- tices Lorrigan, McFarland, Henshaw, Shaw, Sloss and Angelotti. Justices Lorrigan and McFarland were accom- panied by their wives. Other guests of Gen. Sherman on the train were At- torney-General Webb, Secretary of State Curry, Assistant General Passenger Agent Gregory of the Santa Fe, Gen. Sherman’s son, Robert P. Sherman, superintendent of the Los Amngeles-Pa- . c Railroad, and other prominent peo- mile. Gen. Sherman chartered the train im- mgJiately after the receipt of the earth- quake news, in order to reach his wife, daughters and nieces, who were in San Francisco. The several justices of the Supreme Court went north with him on like mis- sions. Judge's Wife Missing. Relating his experiences of the Gen. Sherman said: “The saddest experiencé of all fell to Justice Shaw. The apartments in which Mrs. Shaw was staying had gone down in the flames and the only information he could get was that she had taken a few of her belongings and gone away. All Thursday and Friday until Saturday noon Justice Shaw searched the burning city, now afoot, now in a vehicle, but only once did he find trace of his wife. Inquiring at random, he found that she had mingled for a time with the unhap- py refugees in one of the parks. “Sick at heart, he returned to Los Angeles tonight absolutely without word. His last chance was that he might find her here. But at a late hour tonight, no word had reached him, and he stated that it is his purpose to depart again for San Francisco tomorrow morn- ing to renew the search. unless trace is found in the meantime.” Justice Henshaw went to Redwood City, 3} miles away, where he found his wife and family unharmed. ; Justice Angelotti went to his home In San Raefel, where the earthquake shock was not felt, and Justice Lorrigan found his family safe at San Jose. Chief Jus- tice Beatty’s heart was made glad by the finding of his wife in San Francisco. Associate Justice and Mrs, McFarland Went to their home in San Francisco and found their daughter safe.

No Outsiders Are Allowed to Enter Devastated Frisco, CHICAGO, April 23.—The follow ing telegram to E. O. MeCormick assistant traffic director of the Southern Pacific Railway, from J. C.

ONE HUNDRED ARE KILLED - IN AN INSANE ASYL AGNEWS, Cal.} April 23.—The work of taking out the bodies of patients who were killed in the wreck of the Insane Asylum buildings is still going on. At present it is estimated that at least 100 are dead. The cupola over the administration department went down and all that part of the building collapsed. Twelve at- tendants were killed and Dr. Kelly, sec- ond assistant physician, was crushed to death. There were 1100 patients in the hospital, and C. L. Seardee, secretary of the State Commission in Lfnacy, who has been here attending to official business, declares that it is a marvel that many more were not killed. Dr. T. W. Hatch, superintendent of the State Hospitals for Insane, is in charge of the work of relief. |

I need hardly say that the Red Cross work must be done wholly without regard to persons and just as much for Chinese as for any others. “Please wire Dr. Devine at once to see that this is done.

For when the supply of water from the mains was gone, they were dis- tributed along the water front and sucked up salt water from the bay. At one time five or six of them worked together to run a line of hose down the ‘valley which lies between fitussian Hill and Telegram Hill. They hoped to make a stand here to save North Beach. All the hose they could find was coupled to make two lines nearly a mile long. Although the pres- sure was poor, they held the fire at this point until the west wind, which saved the Western Addition brought the fire back over Russian Hill and flanked their position. How these firemen worked no one will ever know. How many men they lost no one will know until they stright- en the department out and count their dead.

We are eating almost with regularity. The relief trains from other towns on the coast—fliour from Stockton, general provisions from Sacramento and cooked food from down the valleys—have saved the situation. Pacific Coast steamers from Puget Sound brought in still more, and the Pacific mail steamer China ar- rived with a cargo of rice. This is good news for the Chinese and Japanese, for they don’t like American foods. It was unloaded duty free, and Dr. Voorsanger, who has been working like Funston, will distribute it with the help of his volunteer corps of Stanford stu- dents. In fact, duties are off on all boats which bring foodstuffs or cloth- ing. We need clothing badly. We need tents and blankets and any kind of ma- terial for shelter. ._Half the sickness, which is. working the physicians to skeletons, could have been avoided if there had been shelters in the parks the last three nights. rhe reign of order seems stored. In the first place more whisky. All the supply is either drunk up, destroyed in the fire or spilled. After the small riot of Friday, when some of the soldiers got drunk, Gen.

Last Sunday was Easter. It was a brilllant day in San Fran- cleco, where the women dress gayly. Last Sunday clean, trim built men and big. beautiful and well-groomed Cali- fornia women!

From early. morning the church workers had been going through 4he camp giving notices of services— “Presbyterian services by the children's averounds;’’ “Father Cottle will say mass at the bandstand at 9 and 11.”’ Hiere was a gospel service, going on about a parlor melodeon; there an Epis-

But, of course, there have been isolated robberies—a great deal more than the soldiers have ever punished. by the summary method of shooting. = ; It was inevitable, under the circum- stances, that many should fall sick from disease® brought on by exposure. The troops sent all such to the hospitals of the Presidio, which must be crowded by this time. The refugees are coming out without any persona] baggage. The _ soldiers, realizing that life is now more valuable than .property, and that it may be life and death to get people of the city, forced them to leave their belongings in a great pile which is growing along the esplanade of the ferries.

tion from the great heat, and burying them. So many bodies appear to have been taken out from little houses whose fall escaped notice in the general dis- aster that the number of dead must pass the early estimate of 600. There was no attempt to get them to the cemeteries or even to the tempo- rayy cemeteries at the Presidio. They were buried in the nearest parks un- identified. In Columbia Park and in South Park big trenches were dug and the corpses are piled in, 15 to a trench. At one place on Folsom street there was no park near at hand. They dug the trench there in an unpaved street. A military messenger who came over Sunday night with dispatches reported that this horrible task is nearly done. Most of the corpses are under ground. There is another unconsidered factor which adds to the list of probable dead. Chinatown was built three stories above the street and three below it. The Chinese had run their tunnels, chambers and secret passages feet below ground. These were always pop- ular, especially at night. As they were not timbered, these tunnels must have caved in, for the. shock was strong enough at that point to overthrow some of the old rookeries. The things which must have hap- pened down there in the bowels of the earth! Even if the Chinese had thought of rescue work here, the fire would have driven them away, for Chinatown caught fire almost at once and .the. population. was driven into Portsmouth Square. Men are mighty good or mighty bad in a time like this. We have learned that. Three-quarters of the people are helping’ one another, sharing their ra- tione with them, helping to hunt for the missing, burying the dead, caring for the sick. One quarter is grabbing and stor- ing food, trying to make money from the necessities of others, ready to rob and plunder. One old man, who came over alone on the ferry Sunday, wore a big everceat. although the weather is mild. He appeared very fat and walked with difficulty.

Snyder appeared in Judge Reynolds’ division of the Criminal Court Monday prepares to stand trial on the charge o ribery in connection with the passage of the Central] Traction bill in 1898. The case was continued to May % With the distinct understanding that final disposition is to be made of the case. Snyder was convicted of the charge in October, 1902, when he was prose- cuted by Gov. Folk, who was then Cir- cult Attorney. The case was appealed to the Supreme Court, and June 22, 1904, it was reversed and remanded. Fred G. Uthoff, who was the principal witness at the former trial, was not present Monday. Neither was Louis ' Dieckmann, Alex Konta. Finis E. Mar- shall, Edgar H. Mepham and Thomas Kimball. Circuit Attorney Sager said that these witnesses were essential, Judge H. 8. Priest, for the defense, offered to permit the testimony given at the former trial togwbe read. Circuit Attorney Sager said that he did not think the Supreme Court would permit the defendant to waive his constitu- tional right to be confronted by his ac- cusers and-were the testimony toa be read it would be ground for reversal should a conviction be had. The State was represented Monday by Cireult Attorney Sager and his assist- ant, George N. Fickeissen. The de- fense was represented by Judge Priest, F. W. Lehmann and Morton Jourdan. United States Senator William Warner, who aided the defense in the former trial, left Washington Sunday night and is due to reach St. Louis at 2 p. m. Monday.

It is a terrible ordeal to a delicate, sensitive, refined woman to be obliged to answer certain questions when those questions are asked even by her family physician. This is especially the case with unmarried women. Is it any wonder, then, that women continue to suffer and that doctors fail to cure woman’s diseases when they cannot get the proper information to work on? This is the reason why thousands and thousands of women are now - corre- sponding with Mrs. Pinkham. To her they can and do give every symptom, so that she really knows more about the true condition of her patients, her correspondence with them, than the physician who personally questions them. If you suffer from any form of ills ar to women, write at once to .

PITT men city. building of the new San Francisco is considered a certainty by the Pittsburg manufacturers. FURN SBURG CAN'T. Z ISH MATERIAL * ~ a i». ry Snecial to the Post-Dispatch. PITTSBURG, April 23.—Pittsburg steel fear that the rebuilding of San Francisco will be seriously retarded by the inability of the mills of Pittsburg and the Pittsburg district to meet the enormous demand for structural] material which will be sure to follow. To add to the serious condition, the mills of the Pittsburg district are now so crowded with previous orders that it is next to impossible for them to take on addli- tional work. On account of this crowded condition it is feared that San Francisco will be forced to turn to the steel mills of Great Britain and Germany for their structural iron in the rebuiluding of the burned That steel will enter into the re- From accounts that have already been received from the lo- cal agents of the Carnegie Steel Co. and the Jones and Laughlin Steel Co. in San Francisco, It was the buildings of stcel construction which withstood the earth- quake shocks as well as the attacks of the fire. As was the case in Baltimore, all of the steel buildings were practi- cally unharmed by the flames. In buifi- ing the new San Francisco it is believed that steel shapes will be used almost exclusively. The Carnegie Steel Co. has practically closed its books for additional orders where deiivery is required withir ths next elght months. Much of this work is for Pittsburg alone, where over $20.- 000,000 in new buildings is to be spent during the present summer. Jones & Laughlin, the big independent concern, has just completed and started a new plant for structural shapes, but even with their additional ty unable to handle the which - may come from the stricken city. The Pennsylvama and Lackawanna steel companies and the Illinois Sieel Do. will be able to handle some of the work — that will come from San Francisco. but it will only be a small percentage of the great amount that will be ed. The steel mills of Germany are rushed with orders for immediate delivery, but those of Great Britain can accommodate quite a large amount of additional business. On account of high freight rates from Pittsburg to the Pacific Coast. Great Britain and Germany will be able to de- liver structural shapes in San Francisco as cheap or probably cheaper than could the local mills. It will, however, neces- sitate considerable delay in getting the materia] there. Pittsburg manufacturers will put aside whatever orders they can to assist in the rebuilding of the stricken city.

JAPAN LOOKS FOR PEACE IK THE FAR EAST —

Premier Marquis Saionji Says Chinese Disturbances Are Only Local.

JAPS NOT INSTIGATORS | oo ~--—--- —— -—s Missionaries Mostly Workers, but Some Are Meddlesome. VIEWS ON MANCHURIA

He Hopes: for Open Door to World as to Land Ownership.

Special Cable to tne Post-Dispatch and New York World. TOKIO, April 14.—Discussing the sit- . general anid Saionji, Orient in Marquis said, in uation in the Japan in particular, the Japanese Premier, course of an interview: “The affairs in the Far very hopeful. China are in a fairly settled condition. Peace seems to smile upon the Orient, as far as human foresight can judge. As for the recent outbreaks in China, they are only small fits of lawlessness and 4d») not indicate a general anti-foreign feel- ing. Such outbreaks are bound to hap- pen from time to time. They are the only menace to peace. But they do not class with the Boxer troubles. “When I heard rumors,’ the Premier continued, “that some Japanese took part in the Shanghai riots, I made a personal investigation and found the Japanese had nothing to do with the riots. Some Japanese sympathized with the Chinese, who tried to protect them- selves against foreign invasions, but some Europeans’ exhibited the same sympathy. I am fully convinced that not one Japanese took part as an in- stigator in any way.” “What is your opinion of the mission- aries:” “J believe that on the whole their motives are pure and altruistic. But | am sorry that there are sgme among them against whom grave charges can be made. They directly and indirectly meddle in political questions. They even give shelter to refugees from the law and interfere with the courts and laws of the land. “May I ask you,” continued Marquis Sailonji, ‘““whether you believe the enor- mous expenditures made by missionary work is justified in China? To me ik seems. like an enormous waste, juayzing by what has been accomplished in the way of conversions up to the present.’ The Premier then spoke of the bright commercial prospects of the Orient. He said he was happy over the fact that Russia and Japan are moving their troops home with reasonable speed. He could not at this time tell whether for- eigners will be allowed to own land in Manchuria. But he said: “It is a distinct feature of my policy to insure the opening of the country to all alike, irrespective of the questions of nationality.” AT BAY, SET HOME AFIRE.

MANY CHANGE SENATORS Thirty Terms Expire This Year and Several Are Very Ill, By Wire From the Washington Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, April =.—There are likely to be many new faces in the Senate when the next Congress assem- bies, the 4th of March, next year. Time, political exigencies and other changes will lay a neavy hand upon the Senate next year. The terms of 3 Senator: expire with this Congress. The thought of changes has been accentuated by thr announcement that Senator Russell A. Aiger of Michigan, who is sick, wil not be a candidate for re-election. It 1s improbable, but not. impossible, that one or both of New York's ver) feeble Senators may decide to resign. It is considered probable that Senator Corman will never come back to the Senate. His health has been so bag that he could not attend the sessivns this winter, and there are alarming re ports as to his condition. His remoya would take away one of the strongest men on the Democratic side. Tillman of South Carolina, whose fearlessness on the railroad rate obi has won the undying .enmity of the rullroads, has a bitter fight on his hands in South Carolina, and the rail- roads are trying to defeat him for re- election. Senator Berry of Arkansas, who has been in the Senate since 1865, is to go, having been beaten in his home primaries. Burton of Kansas is a defendant in the courts, and h¥s seat will be vacant next year, Cullom’of Illinois has a fight on with Yates, and may be. defeated for re-election. Gearin of Oregon ‘@ ar appointee, and probabry. vu not come back.

( -_ 4 Adolphus Busch, millionaire brewer, reached St. Louis from San Francisco Monday, glad to be alive after the ter- rible experience of his party in the earthquake. When they reached St. Louis at 7:10 a. m, there was a joyous reunion at the Station. August Busch and other mem- bers of the family met the Missouri Pa- cific train to which the private car Adoiphus was attached. All were vis- ibly affected, and Mrs. Busch, shaken by her experiences and moved by the meeting, shed tears. The party was taken in earriages and an automobile to the home in Busch place. Mr. Busch is hourly expecting a telegram from Frederick J Tillmann, in whose home on Nob Hill he spent a part of his time after the earthquake, saving that the mansion was destroyed by fire. He sent back several telegrams inquiring as to the fate of the house, which seemed doomed when he left it Thursday. Places Loss at $20,000. party did not have any luggage. personal belongings except This in- The All their what they wore were lost. -cludea@ valuable jewelry, and Mr. Busch estimates his loss at $20,000. For 48 hours Mr. Busch and his party lived in the open air or in wagonettes, for which Mr. Busch paid $100 a day. They were afraid to stay in Mr Til- mann'’s home, as there was danger of further shocks. During the stay in San Francisco they ate sandwiches, which they made themselves with ham given them by Mr. Tillmann. They were not aliowed to build a fire, and when Mrs. Magnus lighted a candle Wednesday night a soldier rebuked her and put it out. “Anything one scribing the scene sounds trite,’’. Mr. say in de- in San Francisco Busch said to a ré- porter for the Post-Dispatch Monday. “I cannot conceive anything more dreadful than the spectacle in San Francisco Thursday. The people walked through the ruins as if they were dazed. It ‘was aw tinie when conventions were forgotten.

Theirs was one of the homes that had been destroyed by the fire. “The composure with which most San Franciscans bore themselves was one of the remarkable things about the disaster.

When they said anything they were obeyed implicitly. “The week in San Francisco immedi- ately preceding the disaster was un- usually gay. Sunday we lunched at the Cliff House. Tuesday night we hvard Caruso in Carmen at the Grand Opera House. He was in splendid voice, and won enthusiastic applause. The house was packed. The audience was fashion- able and handsomely dressed. In the restaurants after the opera there were gay little after-theater parties. For per- vasive galety I have never seen any city like San Francisco. On the Eleventh Floor. “Before many of the theater goers were asleep, in all probability, the shock came. We were on the eleventh floor of the B8t. Francis. I was a&vakened by what seemed a blow upon the side of my head—a blow that knocked it violently to one side. “There were crashes of overturning chairs and breaking mirrors, and the plaster fell about us. I groped my way to turn on the lights, but the connection was apparently broken.

It merely ate out the woodword and floors and left the shell standing. The new San Francisco, I am confident, will be better and more beautiful than the old.” Mr. Busch’s party consisted of him- self and his wife, Mrs. Arthur Mag- nus, his daughter and her two chil- dren, H.

“TAKE WARNING” SIGN ON SLAIN ROBBER. SALT LAKE, April 23.—Scores of Salt Lake people were in San Fran- cisco at the time of the earthquake and many of them returned home yes- ~ olan bringing a mass of informa- on. “There were ludicrous scenes even in the saddest hours, and I cannot forget them,” said L. FE. Riter, a Salt Lake mining man. ‘I never saw so many parrots, canary birds, mocking birds and pet dogs together in my life. I Saw a pet dog on the seat of an automobile, the owner of which would not stop to take in a badly wounded man on the sidewalk. “One thing in particular will always remain in my memory: On a pile of bricks, stones and rubbish was thrown the body of a mane shot through the heart and on his chest was pinned a placard: ‘Take warn- ee — effective way to ‘ e who w make trouble. vs oo “TI met one poor crazy woman who stopped us to say that they had killed her husband and might as well kil] Ar. Then she changed her cry and said she was &@ cOW and asked us to: take her away. Our hearts were convulsed with pity, but what could we do? We left her talking to the next comers and could only hope that those in authority finally cared for her. Dr. George Schramm, a young gradu- ate, says: “As I was passing down Market street

with a new-found friend an automobile came rushing along with two soldiers ot it. My doctor's badge protected me, but the soldiers invited my companion. a husky six-footer, to get into the automo- bile. He said: ‘I don’t want to ride afid have plenty of business to attend to.’ Onee more they invited him and he re- fused. One of the soldiers dropped a gun on him and said: ‘We need such men as you to have women and children ang to help fight the fire.’ The man was on his way to find his sister, but he yielded to the in- evitable. He worked all day with the soldiery and when released to get lunch, he felt that he could consclenttogsly de- sert to go and find his own loved ones.”

PUMP FOR SHAM SUICIDE. |! The efficacy of the stomach pump as a cure for sham suicides received new proof in the case of Charles E. Herron of 82 Chouteau avenue. Herron wrote a pathetic note to his wife bidding her farewell, declaring he knew she wouldn't be sorry, and that he truly loved her— “with many kisses, your loving hus- band,”"—and a few minutes after she re- ceived it was found gasping painfully in his room. A very short while after the pump got to working Herron assured the City Dispensary doctors that he hadn't taken poison, after all. “I dig it just to frigh- en my wife.”’ he said. He home.

Few of the Delegates Are Un- married and Most of Them Have Gray Hair. ee ee ee tee eee THEY MAY NUMBER 500

Mrs, Harry G. Noel, President, and Mrs. Byron Nugent Welcome Guests.

Registration and the consideration of prizes and trophies formed the main oc- cupation Monday of the delegates to the ninth annual congress of the Woman's Whist League, which will open Monday evening at the Southern Hotel with a reception and open pair contest. Plaving for the trophies will not be- gin until Tuesday morning. The registration takes time because the delegate must register the events which she wishes to enter and the names of her partners. If she is with- out a partner an effort is made to find one from the list of those registered as unattached. The valuable trophies and prizes are arranged in cases surrounded by palms on the parior floor of the hotel and form an interesting exhibition. Mrs. Byron Nugent is chairman of the Committee on Prizes and has been much compli- mented upon her selection. Chief. of all is the Washington trophy. It can be-won only by a club team of four. It is shield-shaped and is set in a velvet case. Its top decoration .is of clubs, hearts, diamonds and spades in their card colors. Bands below the shield have upon them the names of the clubs that have won it in the past. Since the Washington is a permanent trophy prizes are given to the four who win it for their club. The first prizes are beautiful bronze jewel boxes with miniatures on the top. Many Beautiful Prizes. The second prizes are gold pencils. Both boxes and pencils are engraved with the; words ‘‘Washington Trophy, 1906.”’ * Four members of the Hamilton Club, St. Louis, are entered for this trophy and the accompanying prizes, Mrs. Hamilton, Mrs. Shelley, Mrs. Kaiser and Mrs. Garrett. The junior trophy, usually called the Cavendish trophy, is a tall silver cup. It is played for by fours of the same club. Those who win it will each re- ceive a gold bracelet. The second , ‘zes are silver compotes. The prizes that accompany the Quaker City silver cup, whict. is for winners of top scores in trophy matches, are sil- ver frames and table centers of cut glass and silver trimmings. The Brooklyn cup is for pairs and the first prizes that go with it are gold bracelets and little traveling or boudoir clocks. The women who win the New Amster- dam trophy for their club will be given gold bracelets. Those who are second will receive gold thimbles. Men in One Contest. The Philadelphia trophy for pairs ranks next to the Washington trophy in the minds of the players. Silver can- dlesticks and cut glass bowls will be given to the women who win or nearly win it. Mrs. Richard Mills and Mrs. J. C. Doneghy have registered to play for it. Among their opponents will be Mrs. Henry W. Gannon and Mrs. Newman of New York. The Toledo trophy does not demand that those who contest for it be of the Same club. Its prizes are handsome sil- ver purses and gold clocks. It is count- ed next to the Philadelphia trophy. St. Louis women have added another to the trophies and by so doing have shown their broad-mindedness in ask- ing that it be a trophy for mixed fours, that meaning that itimay be contest- ed for by men. Men will play with women for the §t. Louis’ trophy Wednesday evening. It is the gift of the St. Louis Wom- an’s Whist Club. Pins and cups pres- sented by Mrs. Byron Nugent will be given the trophy winners. The Hamil- ton Club will give a valise to the man making the highest top score and Mrs. Frye. of Chicago will give a present for the highest aggregate ‘score made by a man. Mrs. H. W. Cannon of New York. who will be the next president of the league, has offered for the highest score made in playing for the Wash- ington trophy an exquisitely beautiful gold medal with fleur-de-lis in dia- monds. For Highest Scores. Mrs. Frothingham of Chicago will give a medal for the highest score made in playing for the Cavendish tfOphy. For the highest score the In- dianapolis Club will give a pin set with pearls, for the second the Omaha club will give a gold pin set with a large amethyst, and for the third Mrs. Dan C. Nugent will give a medal. The traveling trophy is the gift of Mrs. Chas. L. Taylor of Pittsburg. It is a silver cup and is played for in the different sections of the league. Its accompanying prizes are pins. ; Mrs. Paff will give a gold pencil to the woman making the most top scores. Besides these prizes others are being received for special events by Mrs. Nu- gent and Mrs. Harry G. Noel, who is president of the league. It was a gathering of interesting women that filled the parlors and cor- ridors of the Southern. Hardly a wom- an in'the number but had streaks of gray in her hair. Most of them are mar- ried and mothers. Onlx here and there on the registers was a delegate’'s name preceded by ‘‘Miss.”’ Most of them came without “husband or brother to lessen the inconveniences of travel. All gave evidence of that independence, self-re- Mant and mental quickness that devo- tees of whist say the game cultivates. There was an absence of the “stylish” woman among the whisters. There were, however, a iarge number of the neat, ‘natty,”’ well-groomed women whose membership in clubs was proclaimed in her appearance. Only modesty prevented any from defending the ‘“‘game and : whist.”’ AL frankly sald they a in the intellectual advanta A officers game, though they left to t wif gy oe a formal statement in beha delegate play of

Ellis Corey, wife of the president of the United Steel Corporation, and her _ sister-in- law, Miss Ada Corey, nor from Mrs. Joseph Schwab, sister-in- law of Charles M. Schwab, who were in San Francsico during the earthquake and fire. The great alarm is felt by their relatives here, particularly as to the case of Mrs. Schwab. She was known to have been stop- ping at the Cliff. House, unless she left there without notifying her relatives. The relatives of the Coreys hope that they had not yet ar- rived in San Francisco when the earthquake came, although they were exnected to be there the day previous. ‘7 ~h Oo. D. Thompson, a

Stewart's” strictures on ‘“‘vambling,”’ and especially the tendency in that direction among women was called to Mrs. Thompson’s attention by a Post-Dispatch reporter. Mr. Stewart is Prosecuting Attorney of Pittsburg, Mrs. Thompson's own city. ‘“‘Mr. Stewart has failed to touch any of the worst forms of gambling in Pitta- burg, and so his statements have not much value,’’ said Mrs. Thompson. “In Pittsburg they were passed with a laugh. Besides, whist playing is not gambling, it is a clean, healthy, valuable mental exercise. “You know there was a better chance for notoriety in attacking women’s card games than in doing his duty in clean- ing the city of real, pernicious, immorai gambling. That, I suppose, is why Mr. Stewart spoke.”’ Mrs. Shaw of Detroit had not heard of Dr. Bitting’s adverse comments on whist playing and other forms of gam- bling among women. “IT presume Dr. Bitting has confound- ed plain whist with bridge. I agree with him thatthe latter game is gam- bling. It is a pernicious sort of gam- bling, too, and one that is doing much harm, among men as well as among women. “But plain whist is the best mental training of which I Know outside of logic itself. The prizes are not stakes any more than merits at school are stakes.”’ Mrs. Stephen 8. Wilder, a bustling little woman exhaling the atmosphere and freedom of the West—her home is in Los Angeles—disposed of Dr. Bitting and-other critics of women who play whist in a summary fashion. “This is a broad world and there is plenty of room for many different opin- ions on any subject,’’ she said. ‘Dif- ference of opinions, by the way, is what makes some fine whist games.’’ Mrs. J. B. Oldham, Mrs, L. S. Sabin, Mrs. Charles Baxter, Mrs... Charles Ro- den and Mrs. Seth Miller“of the Silent Sixteen Whist Club of Dallas, Tex.., chorused an approval of Mrs. William O'Neill's defense of their chosen. game. They declared that whist combined so- cial pleasures with intellectual improve- ment and held that that is the highest form of education. Mrs. Noel, as president of the league, brought the convention to S8t. Louis. The next congress, according to the league's system, will be in New York, the home of Mrs. H. W. Cannon, vice- president. By an automatic system the vice-president succeeds the president, and the place of convention is the city in which the president resides. Miss L. 8S. Getchell of Philadelphia is treasurer, but as she is to resign, a suc- cessor will be chosen at this congress. Mrs. M. B. Shelly of St. Louis is cor- responding secretary. It is regarded as certain that Mrs. James T. Shaw of Detroit will be named as. vice-president to succeed Mrs. Can- rn gt will serve in that office during St. Louis has more Post-Dispatch readers every day than it has homes. “First in everything.” NEW ITALY IN OZARKS. Archbishop Glennon Invites Immigrants to Missouri. Archbishop Glennon, in an address Sunday evening before the Society of St. Vincent de Paul in New. York, urged that immigrants, particularly Italians, be persuaded to leave large cities ‘or the country, and suggested the rural dis- tricts of Missouri as a desirable home. Immigration, Archbishop Glennon said, is the greatest problem now confront- ing America His subject was ‘‘An Apol- ogy for Charity.’’ In touching on the condition of the Italian in the United States, he said: “What would be more reasonable, more charitable or more Christian than to say to this man, a brother in faith,

should he seek a new home, but there where the same sun shines that lighted his home in Italy, where the same wind blows and the same spring comes, the same autumn freighted with its harvest of wheat and wine. | “Far out in the Western land, by the Ozark Mountains, the sky is just as blue, the streams just as clear, as in his own home. The land he_ rented in Italy he can buy there outright for the rental of a single year. There he can build his home, there rear his children, there cultivate again the domestic vir- tues and the faith of his fathers in the cultivation of which Italy stands hon- ored among the nations.”

“BRITE AND FAIR.” The day is cold and dark and wet; The Weather Man has lost his bet; The man still clings to his overcoat, And the lady muffles up her throat. The skies are dark and lowering; The clouds are sometimes showering; The gardener is in despair— Today's prediction: “Brite and fair.” The day is bleak and desolate, The vind swings on the creaking gate: The sun's not shining anywhere— Today's prediction: “Brite and fair.” Fighting Men. The tendency to fight upon the street cars is becoming a great menace to St. Louis culture. Most of us do all our reading upon the cars, and concentra- tion is almost impossible when there is a fight-going on in the aisle. Such affairs are usually accompanied by conversa- tion in an unusual tone, and circling for position always sccagions more or less crowding. All of this is disquiet- ing to the reading circle on the ear. Capt. McCulloch can nip this ten- dency in the bud, if he will. It will only be necessary to place in the ends of the cars, instead of the long parellel seats, a few single chairs reserved for per- sons with chips on their shoulders. Anyone knows when he is in such a mood, and everyone always regrets the consequences of permitting the grouch to master the possessor of it. Men who get out of bed on the wrong side now and then would be only too glad to take the single seats and thus reduce to a minimum the danger of starting some- thing. Street car fights almost always result from one passenger’s belief that his seatmate is crowding him. This unfortunate state of mind is impossible in a single seat. The worst that could happen would be for the man out of sorts to fall into a fight with himself, which would s0 amuse the rest of the passengers as to make it impossible for him long to be blind to the funny side‘ of the situation. Once he saw it, he would be good natured the rest of the day. In South Dakota.

TI’ll , tell you about mine, though joxt of course you can’t tell me was on a hunting trip in the Rockies and I was sleeping out of doors. I wdke up one morning at 4 Oo’clock with a feeling of utter physical contentment such as I had never felt before in my life. Every worry I had ever had in my life was blotted from my mind and I seemed to be literally floating in the marvelous Colorado air. For five min- utes I lay perfectly still in a veritable ecstasy of comfort. Then it passed. For the smell of bacon being fried by one of the guides reached my nostrils. I knew I was hungry ang back on earth again.” Hearing this discussion the other day I couldn't help making some reflections on the man’s assumption—a perfectly correct one—that the woman’s happiness had been dependently sentimental, while e confessed that in the supreme moment of his life he had been solitary. What seemed really surprising was that a hap-

Women are more permanently, men more intensely happy, perhaps. Happiness, in its high- est flights, beats at the gate of heaven and, perhaps before a day has passed, trails its singed wings in the burning marl.

@Queooxw, Dispatch. EN. GROSVENOR and Champ G Clark shook their hoary locks at one another in the House. It was an awesome scene. The District of Columbia appropriation bill was up. There was an item in it about the Gov- ernment insane asylum. Clark said one thing; Grosvenor said another. Pretty soon they were at it hammer and tongs. Then it came. Grosvenor said Clark Purposely misstated some one of the fl- luminating Grosvenor propositions—that is, he calleq Clark a lar in parliament- ary terms. “Woof! Wow!" shouted Clark. “You dare not come outside this House and make that statement!’ “I'll make it anywhere!” yelled back. Logically this was the place for pis- tols, knives, howitzers, blood and gore. Instead, both were called to order, and the whole thing was expunged from the record. Later Grosvenor and Clark had a 80- clal cup of tea together. War in the House of Representatives Is not what Gen. Sherman said it was. Grosvenor

Senator Pettus of Alabama was riding through the State on a campaign tour. He is 8 years old and his eyesight is not as good as it once was. He reached @ cross-roads and could not make out the sign board. “Can you tell me what that sign says?’ he asked Of a man seated on a log by the roadside. “T cannot,’’ the man answered. “I’m like yourself—I had mighty little school- in’ when I was young.”

Senator La Follette has the distine. tion of writing the longest speech of the Congress thus far. It has 95,000 words in it, and it will take the Senator three days to deliver it. It Is about rail. road rates, and is about twice as long as Senator Foraker’s speech. and twice as long as Senator Balley’s. Senator La Follette’s.experience is similar to that of Senator Spooner. The news from San Francisco is filling the papers, and he is getting no publicity for his speech. Four years ago Senator Spooner was scheduled to make the great speech of his life, defending the Philippine policy of the administration. He made the speech, and it was a great one, but there never was a line of it printed in the newspapers or anywhere else outside the Record. On the day he made the speech the wires Out of Wash- ington went down In a sleet storm, and not a wora was telegraphed from the city. Spooner might just as well not have spoken, so far as the effect of his speech on the country was concerned,

ROBYN of St. Louis didn’t wielg the baton for last night's A production of his comic opera, ‘Princess Beggar,’ at the Garrick, it being his distinguished duty to do this tpnight, when soclety will doubt- less be present in his honor, but if he brings out more effectively the melody of his score than does the veteran conductor, Samuel L. Studley of the Shu- bert forces, he'll have to manipulate a sort of magic wand as that same baton. For Mr. Studley revealed to the full the beauty of the music which Robyn has put into the score of the Opera—andg uncommonly tuneful music it ds, too. Indeed, so excellent is ‘Princess Beggar” in this respect place in the ranks of real comic opera—comic opera of the days when real composers ‘wrote the score and put their best effort into the task. There are choruses and solos and duets and trios and quartets and quintets and madri- gals and sentimental ballads in this opera that genuinely delight the ear, and it is evident that Mr. Robyn was aiming much higher than the jingle and glitter of present-day musical comedy when he surrendered his soul to their composition. The fine swing of “Lave, Love, Love!” the basso impres- siveness of “I Want It ,All,” the arch quality of “I Don’t Love You,” the tenderness of ‘‘You're the Only One for Me,” the wistful beauty of ‘Bells of Long Ago,” and the delicacy of “O Tell Me, Daisy’’—just to mention a few of the songs heard last night—are so high in their average as to set a new pace in this field, if there be any beside Reginald De Koven, Victor Herbert and John Philip Sousa, who can ke@p the pace. Especially impressive, too, was the accompanying feature of “Bells of Long Ago,”’ when a big chime of bells suddenly swing down from the flies ana ring out the Robyn air in deep cathedral tones that set the whole hoyse vibrating with their sonorous sweet- ness. The music of ‘‘Princess Beggar” {s undeniably its star feature, although Ed- ward Paulton has contributed a book which recalls those of the Gilbert and Sullivan operas in the quaintness of its humor and the tricksome turns of its lyrical rhymes. The dialogue, too, of which there is much in this opera, has somewhat of the Gilbert and Sullivan flavor, which means that, altogether, the Robyn-Paulton work makes a more legitimate appeal than has been common of late years. Its unusual story, happily, lends itself to this better treatment on th part of its authors. Miss aPula Edwards in the title role has a nart in which her own peculiar methods of fun-making receivé ample opportunity, of which she makes the most. She is a very “sassy,” sprightly and cute “princess beggar,’’ and she dances flittingly about the stage and sings such songs as ‘‘When We Get Mar- ried’ ang “Girl of My Heart” and “When It's Raining” with the utmost catch- iness, so that her personal hit last night was quite pronounced. But one pe- culiarity of the new Robyn opera is thatit isn’t at all given over to exploiting the soubrette star and funny man, and, as a consequence, Mis& Edwardes and Eddie Garvie don't stand out in the spotlight as noticeably as if ‘‘Princess Beg- gar’’ were written along more conventional lines for their special glorification. The excellent basso voice and clever acting of Stanley Forde as the Baron Lombardo, the beauty and exquisite soprano of Miss Julia Frary as his daugh- ter Rowena, the sweet tenor of Douglas Ruthven as Count Rollo—these are factors that play a big part in the pleasingness of ‘Princess Beggar’’ and make it not by any means utterly dependent upon one or two principles for. its suc- cess. And there’s a chorus—especially of male voices, heard to fine advantage in the “Song of the Woodcutters’’—which makes one think of the ensemble work of the old Bostonians at its best, This production is most handsomely staged and there are many incidental! picture groupings of great effectiveness. Jt seems to me that “‘society’’ won't have to go out of its way at all to acclajm Mr. Robyn very sincerely this even- ing when he’s there at the head of the «princess Beggar” orchestra to receive their congratulations. that it claims a —_——_—- MARIE CAHILL AT HER BEST.

The redoubtable Billy Baxter, past-master in American slang and prede- cessor of George Ade's fables in that held of native literature. is the hero of the story of “How Baxter Butted In,” which began its week at the Imperial yesterday, and the part is amusingly taken by Sidney Toler, who makes a breezy and typical “drummer.”’ The entertaining Mr. Baxter saves a pretty girl from the persecutions of village folk who believe slanderous attacks on her character, falls in love with her and makes her Mrs. Billy Baxter. Much fun, as well as excitement, marks the development of the story, and those who have read “Billy Baxter's Letters’’ will relish Billy Baxter himself, as presented in the flesh by Mr. Toler. A FAVORITE FICTION HEROINE IN A PLAY. A dramatized version of “Dora Thorne,"’ one of the most popular novels ever written, began a week's engagement at Havlin's yesterday afternoon and evening and seemed greatly to please its audiences. The story as told in the an efficient company, and the adventures of the heroine, a lowly English girl who mar- ries a Duke's son, were followed by yesterday's audiences with deep interest. Although melodramatic in its trend, there ts a strong comedy element in the play, and this is effectively brought out.

Dainty Girdles, For a white dress the prettiest of the many flowered girdles is made with two ends which hang 10 or 12 inches below the waist line like a short sash and are cut into long points. But the pretty part of it is the way valenciennes lace is put on. Inch wide edging is used and gathered so full that it frills into tiny jabots all around those two long ends, the cut edges of the rib- bon finished in a tiny invisible hem to make a firm edge for the lace to be sewed upon. Why Dressing Well Costs Heavily. “I have discovered why American women have to pay heavily to present that aspect known as ‘stylish,’”’ said a woman who keeps her eyes open. ‘In this country—and the rule holds good from New York to San Francisco—a modiste who can turn out a dashing costume charges from $15 to $235 for her work. I have known girls who had only about $3 or $40 to spend on an entire outfit, and who haq to buy remnants for $ and $ and then pay $20 for the mak- ing. In Paris the style is within the reach of every woman who is not down- right poor. There is'no such thing as a botchy dressmaker. The difference between the garments worn by the shop. girl in Montmartre and those of the grande dame js in the quality of the fabric and the trimmings. I think wom- en should bring about a reform in the land of the free. They should insist a) the style, as do their French sisters. By going only to those who wnow their | business and turn out a trim robe, they | soon would put the blunderers out of business.”-—New York Press. —— Hurry With the Prize.

To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. ownership movement and the Presi- dent's reflections on great fortunes, I see many references to the perils of Socialism. But nowhere have [ seen those perils described unless in the vague assertion that Socialism would destroy individual initiative. Since So- clalism contemplates the absorption of industrial institutions by the State so that the indivdual will no longer be able to use his weath as capital. I can see plainly enough this economic initi- utive would be considerably abridged if not destroyed. If this is a peril it must be owned there-is peril in Socialism. But in what other respect is individual initiative discouraged? In art? Litera- ture? Science? What perils hide in So- cialism except the loss in Individual eco- nomic initiative? Ba: Te ee NEW YORK VIEWS. | Written to the Editor of the World. | Socialism of “The Jungle.” Socialism means not merely the com- mon ownership of the instruments and means of production; it means also their democratic administration. It means not only that the people shall share in the fruits of all industry, each according to the labor that he performs; it means also that the people snail have abso- lute authority to decide how the labor is performed. It is this important con- sideration which makes comparison of Socialism with an army so entirely in- adequate. An army obeys orders, but it does not elect its own officers. A better illustration is some voluntary as- sociation, such as a church or a club. Actual acquaintance with Socialists would soon convince you that they are the most democratic ang liberty-loving of men, the most free and untrammeled of individualists. You say that we “would substitute instead of Mr. Rockefeller, Mr. Ryan, Mr. Morgan, Mr. Harriman, as indus- trial directors, another body of men who would have much greater and more universal powers.”’ From what do you imagine this new body of men would derive their power? You un- derstand that our present industrial masters derive their power from their wealth, their ability to control the means of producing the necessities of life and to deny other men the right —_——_—- -————v—X——— CASTORIA For Infants and Children.

Bear in mind also that the Soctfal- ists are proposing a plan for the or- ganization of industry—that they, pro- pose to systematize the production of material: things. So far as intellectual and moral things are concerned they propose to leave every man free; in fact, they believe that this plan alone wilt enable men to be really free—to live an independent moral and intel- lectual existence. When you think of Socialism as the ‘‘coming slavery” is there not in your mind some idea that limit intellectual freedom? Socialism if any man mine coal he would have to mine it according to the methods which the community dictated; but there would be nothing to prevent his starting a newspaper, or a church, or a club, or a theater. or a political party, in any manner and for any purpose that he chose.

HUESTON AND LEON ARRIVE FROM.FRISCO

a 7 eo _ es ia) ehh, | ee Thomas Hueston, who holds the pool trophy emblematic of the pool cham- pionship of the world, with his backer, Jesse Leon, the three-cushion billiard- ist, arrived in St. Louis Monday morn- ing from San Francisco, where they had passed through all the horrors of the California cataclysm and been eye-wit- nesses of the events that followed the digaster. | oon and Hueston had quarters on the third floor of the Randolph Hotel, and neither retired until a few min- utes before ‘5 o'clock in the morning. Leon says that he was about to cross the room, when he heard a ter- rifie roar that continued for about a minute. Hie felt the building shake and heave and found it almost impos- Sible to retain his balance. *J hurried out into the hall after call- ito Hueston, who was in an adjoin- sroom.” said Leon. “In the hall screaming men, women and children were rushing for the stairways and cle- Champion Poolplayer and His Manager First Earthquake Refugees to Reach St. Louis—Describe Seismic Shock. vators.

Hueston joincd me a few moments later and said that when he heard the rear, he ran for the window to jump out, but changed his mind on seeing the distance he was from the ground. I hope mever to see such scenes agall as those that we witnessed as we walked down the street.’’ As far as we could find turmoil existing in Frisco none of our St. Louls acquaintances were injured. Henry Froelich, a St. Jauls racchorse man I know was not among the injured, “TI met Johnny Lewis and his crew of bookmakers at the door of his bank waiting to pay off his men, but did not Stay to see whether he got his money of not. R. B. Schumway, another St. Louis racehorse man, was not hurt. “Barney Schreiber is on his way to St. Louis, uninjured. Abe Attell, who was to fight Frankie Neil for the bantam- weight championship of the world the night after the earthquake, had gone to Los Angeles a week before the fight.

It is meet and just that professional | sporting men and gentlemen who take interest in the grosser forms of sport should be generous in donation to the relief of the inhabitants of the stricken City of San Francisco. For 20 years Frisco, as it has been dubbed by sport- ing people, has been the leading sport- ing town of America, in variety of en- tertainment. It has never been without its fighting club, its coursing park, its racetrack or its balf team. More than any other city in America, or the werld, for that matter, has San _ Francisco been a town of the patron of cosmo- polite sport. It has adopted the pastimes af all nations and made them its own. Great performances in men; dogs and horses, from all parts of the world, have gone to San Francisco and have been sent homeé enriched and pleased. Its racetracks ran longer than those of any other ¢ity. Its fighting clubs were never closed. Nor were its coursing parks, athletic fields and baseball dia- monds. It supported an entire league for the longest season—eight months— know to baseball. Let the sporting man who benefit from San Franciscan and the sportsman who loves sport for its own sake and lightly condones the occasional shortcomings of its promo- ters dig deeply in the mines of their pockets for the relief of the distressed citizens of the ruined city. The great fault of San Francisco sport was the narrow, uncatholic, home-guard spirit of what men of other states have known as native sons. These so-called native sons would bar from profit everyone but those born on the Pacific Slope. Sporting men received many 4 hard deal from them and their name became a by-word in the mouths of men of width and liberality. The day has come when the native son has learned that all the salt of the earth is not confined to California. He has achieved bitter Knowledge of the fact that a man may be a stranger in a strange land, bravely fighting for the bread to put in his mouth. This knowledge will make of him and of Californians better and wider men. They will learn that accident of birth has little to do with the manliness or worth of men. Let us, the sporting man and_ the sportsman, hasten to the succor of the native son. And let us hope and trust that when a new and greater Frisco arises at the Golden Gate, the sporting world will not any more hear of the narrowness and unfair dealing of the native sons of the Golden West.

Baseball clubs are unselfish sort of folks. They not only let the Ravens in on the ground floor, but they insist upon keeping them there. Bully for McCloskey. With a team seven times as weak as McAleer’s he has won four times as many champion- ship games. Keep it up McCloskey. If eggs made the Cambridge crew beat Oxford would they not be good food for a weak relay team? Aqueduct racing officials withhold of- ficial results for 20 minutes, to embar- ass poolrooms. Embarassing poolrooms is all right, but how about the hardship on the patrons of poolrooms, who have to wait 3 minutes to get their money? Putnam is McCloskey'’s lucky pitcher. Every time he gets knocked out of the box the Cardinals win a game. Yet Stanley Robison always said that he had no luck wit left-handed pitchers. Taxes an Irishman to turn luck back- warayr

Im the lighter forms of heavy leather the Witt chestnut might give the other more than he could take care of. Mr. Witt was driving the flash fellow to a_red and white covert cart which hecame him mightily. The horse improved much within one week's time, has conditioned a good deal and is stepping very fast. It will take a good horse to beat him in gig, spider or covert cart. A Horse of Splendid Spirit. Somehow it seems that while horses were plenty, good ones were noticeably searce. Onlookers noticed that grand old relic of a_ spirited horse, Richmond Squirrell, making a fine showing in the hands of a lady. The old fellow is very low in back and lean in barrel, a fault he inherits from the Artist family—but he has the dash and spirit of the great horse. C. M. Stanley was driving his fine chestnut mare to a trap. She is one of the best heavy harness horses seen on the road, but just now is terrifically fat. Cc. B. Gerhardt had a nice pair of bright bays to a brake in which was a party of four or six. Mr. and Mrs. Jor- dan Lambert were driving in a victoria, L. Garrison, G. L.

Mr. H. W. Peters was out with a very comely pair to surrey. Ed. Conrades was driving an auto. E. H. Quinn drove a runabout, gray! bX handsome bay mare.

A PUNISHMENT Ministers Say God Did Not Wreak Vengeance on San Francisco. That the San Francisco earthquake was the result of the outworking of _heture’s laws, and was not sent as a divine punishment, was the opinion ex- pressed by St. Louis ministers of vari- ous denominations Sunday in pulpit dis- courses on the disaster. Nearly all spoke from the text. “But the Lord was not in the earthquake.” One suggested that the approaching end of the world may be heralded by the earthquake. ‘lief that ’ Catastrophe, All expressed the be- g00d would come from the and urged generosity in giving.

ASKS RECEIVER FOR FATHER'S ESTATE

R. 8. MacDonald, Jr., Alleges Trust Is Handled Unsatisfactorily.

BROTHER IS DEFENDANT

Says Well-Known Lawyer Left No Will. Robert S. MacDonald Jr., through his attorney, Hickman P. Rogers, has filed suit in the Cireuit Court asking for the appointment of a receiver for the estate of his father, Col. Robert S. MacDonald, one of the ablest and best-known mem- bers of the St. Louis bar, who, at his death six years ago, left property val- ued at nearly $1,000,000, According to the plaintiff's petition, Col. MacDonald left no will. Letters of administration were taken out by an elder son, Malcolm W. MacDonald, who is now managing the estate. That his brother has not handled the trust satisfactorily is one of the alle- gations set forth in young MacDonald’s petition. The plaintiff recounts the list of prop- erty owned by his father, including 76 feet at the northeast corner of Eleventh and Locust streets, 199 feet fronting on Chestnut and extending eastwardly from Ninth street, and the building at the northeast corner of Eighth and Pine streets, together with a number of resi- dences in fashionable Cabanne, Stod- dard and Robirds additions Property Is Improved. The petition says that the principal portion of the real estate in the down- toWn district is improved with buildings and tenements occupied by various and numerous wealthy tenants, many of whom are insolvent, and that the de- defendant, Malcolm: MacDonald, has as sumed control and management of the estate and dominated its affairs. There are dissensions and controver- sies between the plaintiff and defendant, the petition says, concerning the man- agement of the estate and it declares unless some suitable person is ap- pointed by the court to manage and control the property, rents and profits pending this litigation, there is great danger of waste and loss to all parties interested. Therefore, the plaintiff prays the court to partition all of the foremoing real estate if it can be done without prejudice to the parties in in- terest, and if not, then, for a sale of said property, or such parts thereof as may be necessary, and for a division of the proceedsof any such sale, or sales- among all the parties, according to their respective rights and interests. elen Hunt MacDonald Jones, sister of the plaintiff, and her husband, Au- gustin B. Jones, William noe John F. Love, Albert Gerst and Julia Wil- liams are joined as defendants. Deed of Trust Held. The defendants, with the exception of the plaintiff's sister and brother, hold deeds of trust against a rt of the MacDonald estate as security for cer- tain notes given to them by Col. Mac- Donald prior to his death. Robert 8. MacDonam, plaintiff in the resent action, to his fathers aw practice. Beveral years he was arded as one of the crack amateur athletes of St. Louis.

BEARFORCES CONT WALL STREET MARKET

Steady Opening Is Followed by Selling for Both Ac- counts. NEW YORK, April 23.—Prices were lower at the opening of the market today. The pressure of offerings, however, was light and the trading confined almost entirely to the professionals. The range of prices from London before the local opening was also lower and market sen- timent both locally and abroad is badly mixed over the present movement of prices. The adjustment of the enormous losses in San Francisco will now become the prime factor in the situation, and the effect on the business interests, and especially the insurance companies, will sway prices one way or the other accordingly as the financial atmosphere cleurs or clouds. " Money should also work stightly firmer in the next few days over the heavy transfers of currency westward. Domestic conditions remain highly favorable. Pressure Increascs. The pressure of offerings increased in the second hour and prices dropped off along the line. The trading was. at no time wild, and excellent support was encountered at all times. On the Stoe Fxchange, however, a feeling of uncertainty prevails, and the exact posi- tion of certa!n securities, as regards any necessary liquidation !s unknown. As far 4s most of the lnserance companies are concerned they are perfectly sound institutions, and no very serious embarrassments are indicated. Agnin the fear that heavy securities holdings in these companies may be forced on the mar- ket, is apparently without foundation. Such losses as have been sustained are usually paid gradually out of surplus funds or through loans made on the securities held, and in this way much of the stocks held is saved from being sacrificed in the open market, when the buy- ing ‘power for securities is naturally at tts lowest ebb. The losses among the mercantile and industrial establishments are on this ac- coumt really of more importance in the end, and the oveasion therefore will call for ex- treme patience and conversatism by the bank- ing and financial institutions of the country while it is working itself out. The Steel Issues. A good deal of attention has been called to the steel and fron shares in the past week. and bull sentiment is naturally working around to these issues. The enormous amowtnts 0: steel and iron products that will be “neces- sary in the reconstruction of San Francisco should assure unparalleled prosperity to the steel] companies tor the pericd of a year oF more, and will no dewbt be reflected in record- breaking earnings for the U. 8S. Steel Cor- yration in the next six or seven months. rhe quarterly statement of the company wilk also be issued tomorrow and showing is indicated. Money loaned in tue early trading -at 4 per cent, and the indications are that tp.e rate will be exceeded before the end of th® week. The payments which will be called from foreign insurance companies must also be taken into consideration, as @ factor in foreign rates, and in certain well- posted quarters it is indicated that tre Bank of England will shortly be called en to raise its discount rate. The Closing. presistent in the later long and short coming steady stream and prices dropped to the low point of the dar. The support came entirely from the shorts and insiders and commission houses were moderate sellers. There was very little news of im- portance and the San Francisco disaster oc- cupied the attention of all interests. Shorts covered moderately in the last few minutes, but the recovery was not well held and the closing was irregular around the lower level. Locai Ciearings.

Two Fashionable Homes in East St. Louis Robbed. The burglar who has been at work in East St. Louis visited two houses in the fashionable residence district Sunday night and got valuable booty. He fol- lowed his usual plan of locking the frorit door from the inside, so that the fami- lies, when ‘they. returned, could not enter. Dr. Charles Smith, of 560 Veronica avenue could not’open the front door of his house, and when he entered through a window at 9 p. m. Sunday he found the bureaus ransacked. A revolver, a gold ring and a bracelet were missing. L. Bauman of 63 North Twelfth street returned from church at 9:30 p .m. with his wife and daughter. The front door was locked and the key was left in the lock on the inside. After much trovs#le Mr. Bauman pushed out the kes and opened the door.

While he was work- ing with the lock he saw a man with a lamp come down the stairs. The robber escaped by the rear door, taking with him two gold watches. a chain, @ pendant and a /child’s bank containing $32.60. NO BLOOD RELATION. Brother-in-Law of Mulvihill’s Brother-in-Law Arrested. A warrant charging Thomas Halloren, a saloon keeper at 1602 Cass avenue, with selling liquor on Sunday, was {g- sued by Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Thomas Monday. He was arrested Sunday afternoon by Special Officers Roberts and Archie. after they had bought two bottles of beer from him. Halloran opened his saloon as an an- nex to his grocery store after the lid was put on. In the neighborhood the impression was created that he could not be molested for selling drinks on Sunday, because, it was said, he was a relative of Excise Commissioner Mul- vihill. To a Post-Dispatch reporter Mr. Mul- vihill said Monday: “There is no relationship between me and Halloran. My brother-in-law mar- ried a sister of Halloran, that is all. I am not playing any favorites in this office. Wait until you see what hap- pens to Mr. Halloran.” $60,000,000 MINE COMPANY ORGANIZED. ANTWERP, Apri “%.—The amount of capital represented by the syndicate ap- plying for concessions to work the coal deposits discovered in the Province. of Limbourg is $60,000,000, A bill now under discussion before Parliament grants con- cessions for a given term, imposing con- ditiens for working the mines under pen- alte of forfeiture of the concession. he working of the new coal mines is of vast importance to the commercial, indus- trial and shipping interests of this coun- try, as well as to the British ceal-carr,-

MONDAY—3T. LOUIS POST-DISPATOR—APRIL 23,1906 : a o Nothing Like It in the History of Journalism aS NEVER BEFORE In the annals of journalism has a newspaper published a collection of twelve great novels by twelve of the foremost authors of the world prior to their production in book form. After a full year of preparation, the Post-Dispatch will begin on Sunday, May 6, the publication of a $190,000.00 Series of Novels The first Novel will be ROBERT BARR’S latest and most brilliant work, entitled A Rock in the Baltic AN CLUB I0 CITY'S OF MILLION INCREASE POPULATION + +. Has Been Chosen. Y the terms of a contract entered B into between the Million Club of St. Louis and an_e advertising agency, all of the strength of the busi- ness friends of St. Louts is| to be con- described in the contract, which is to give this city a population of a million within five years—an increase equivalent to about 400,000 over the Federal census of 1900. The contract provides for the expendi- ture of $400,000—3$100,000 per year for four years—in the advertisement of St. Louis retail market, the exploitation of the advantages of St. Louls as a location for manufacturing establishments and an ef- fort to extend the trade of those already established in St. Louis. L. D. Kingsland, president of the Mil- lion Club, which organization has the Post-Dispatch prize plan for promoting the city’s business interests and increas- ing its population, spoke with great en- tuusiasm concerning the plans of the club. “The Million Club has kept three points in view at all times while considering ihe letting of this contract,’’ he said. “Hirst of all, we have worked for united effort. If our business energies are not concentrated and kept so, nothing. will be accomplished. The Post-Dispatch prize plan, by Mr. Lesan, contained no provision for raising money with which to carry on the work, and the club ageed to avoid a public subscription. That matter was settled in the contract with the Kastor Adverising Agency. Retail Market Advantages. “Then we agreed that a comprehen- sive plan of advertisement of St. Louis retail market would result in an in- crease of the city’s population and would be an exploitation for the city itself of the kind that some of its larger sisters enjoy. “Lastly, we agreed that the way to get a larger permanent population is to provide work for more persons and that the way to do that is develop the busi- ~~ ~e President Kingsland, Ernst Kastor, Whose Firm Will Manage the Printers’ Ink Scheme, and H. W. Lesan, Whose Plan Won the Post-Dispatch Prize, Discuss the Method That cefhtrated in the executicn of the work, velop the retail, wholesale and manu- facturing business of the city, creating the demand for more employes in the factories already located here, further demand for more workmen in the new lines to be established and in the indus- tries incident to their establishment, thereby creating a larger, permanent, working, paying population. The Retail Bargain Days. “In the first place, St. Louis business men recognize that the retail market of a city that offers advantages to the pa- tron of that market not to be secured in competitive markets, will get the trade of its territory and, maybe, encroach a lictle on the territory of the other fellow —in he proportion to its advantages asa market. The plan is to establish monthly bargain days, on which all the retail dealers in the city will sell at lower prices on that particular day. This will furnish an advantage to the others al- ready possessed by this market and we will use printers’ ink in this line of ad- the railroads for the occasion, which the railroad managers have consented to arrange. ‘By maintaining these advantages for nonresidents and seeing that the facts are advertised so that nonresidents will know about them, the business people of St. Louis expect a large number of hitherto nonresidents to become resi- dents because of St. Louis’ being a cheap place to live. “The result of this will be increase in the retail business of the city as well as in the actual population. These facts nave induced the retail business men ot the city to guarantee a large percentage of the money to be expended in this ad- vertising. The theaters of St. Louis, re- tailers of amusement, have all agreed’ to reduce their rates on bargain days and to guarantee another large percentage of the money necessary to conduct the advertising.’’ “What is the method proposed to in- vertising, including the reduced rates on| SAY LAWYERS PUT M KENNA QUI Porto Rico Federal Judge Cables ‘His Resignation to President Roosevelt.

Apart from the unending succession of ‘“‘rapid fire’’ action, episode and adventure which is steadily cumulative to a magnifi- cent climax, the character drawing of the story is exceptional. The characters are not lay figures or puppets, but seem to live and breathe. The reader soon feels he is among actual acquaintances. For instance, the man who does rt promptly fall in love with the dainty, plucky Dorothy Ambhurst, the heroine, would be immune from Circe herself. Dorothy i is no weak, milk-and-sugar damsel whose sloping shoulders serve no other purpose than to act as pegs for the hero’s foolish adoration. She is a maiden alive with womanly sweetness, yet gallant, resourceful, supremely daring in rescuing the man she loves from peril. The hero, too—an English naval officer who has won this. fair American girl’s heart —is the sort of chap D’Artagnan would have weleomed as a chum. Single-handed he fights a duel with the whole Russian nation, his adventures in this unequal warfare form- ing the chief motive of the story. The ‘‘Rock’’ itself is a mysterious boulder jutting out from the waters of the Baltic— a rock seemingly uninhabited, and appar- ently only a resting place for seagulls. But the great mystery of the novel is centered about this same rock, and it would be unfair to the reader to divulge its marvelous secrets. An up-to-date, pretty girl of the American type: a dashing naval lieutenant: from whose vocabulary the word ‘‘fear’’ has been omit- ted; the secret and treacherous methods of a cruel, relentless empire, and Jast, but far from least, the mystic “Rock’’—could finer elements for a thrilling tale of mystery, love and adventure be gleaned from this whole world? And Mr. Barr has woven them all into a story whose daring and unexpectedness hold the reader spellbound up to the very last page.. Such a novel as one remembers and goes back to for surcease from the ordinary twaddle that swamps the iiterary market. THE SUNDAY Post-Dispatch Has secured the rights of advance publica- tion of this splendid series of new novels, and the first section, will appear on Sunday, May 6th NE Qe ea i den Ra es ese “Along this Mne of essentials Mr. Ernst Kastor submitted plans for raise ing money with which to carry out the work. I am sincere in the opinion that, with a united St. Louis, all of these things will be accomplished.” Ernst Kastor, one of the amabers of the firm that has the advertising con- trol, said. “It it trne that we have made a con- tract for the expenditure of $400,000—at the rate of $100,000 per year for four years in advertising St. Louis. But what is also true—and more important —the business people of St. Louis have agreed not only to advertise, but to maintain a concrete organization for no other purpose than to Increase and de- cael eal 4-=Compressed Air Has Been Made a Honsemaid. “One that Does Net Smash the Bric-a-Brac.

Establish as a fact that ‘made in St. Louis’ is a guar- antee of the superiority of the product and, most important of all, use our own makes. “It is a fact that one firm in St. Louis makes almost a million dollars worth of shirts every vear and that the whole product is sold elsewhere. They are su- péerior and no dearer than the shirts that are bought by St. Louisans and if they were demanded by our people the incréase in -the product of this one fac- tory would add not less than 300 persons to our population. “St. Louis leads in the manufacture of shoes—$45,000.000 worth made and shipped to other markets last year, and yet our factories do not supply one-tenth of tne retail stores. “How many more people would be called to St. Louis to work in her shoe factories if the factories of the city were called on by the local retailers for shoes for the six or seven hundred thousand people now here? There is no reason why St. Louis men, women or children should wear shoes made _ in Other markets.’’ “What about the introduction of new lines of manufacturing?” “That fleld furnishes the basis for the most effective work of the Million Club in concert with the business element. The introduction of new lines of manu- facture does away with the fear of com- petition for those already in the field. “Within a short period the Million Club has held many conferences with the proprietors of many of the city jobbing houses—St. Louis has some very large ones. There is no factory here for the making of pressed giass and cheap chinaware; yet there are jobbing houses here which control the output of several factories—not absolutely, but compara- tively or by volume. “It has been ascertained that one or more of these large pressed glass fac- tories in Eastern territory for business reasons entirely aside fom the gains nat- ural to immediate delivery of their prod- uct, are seeking a location in St. Louls. The jobbers in this line would be facil- itated by the location of the factory here and these will add largely to the popula- tion and something to incidental busi- ness. “Another line—one in which our dry goods market is particularly interested— is the manufacture of textiles, generally called cotton fabrics. This is the sec- ond largest open dry. goods market on the Continent. The raw material for the cotton fabrics manufactured in this country is grown in the territory in which St. Louis has her greatest trade influence. This material, first as the raw product, then as the finished, is loaded with the expense of two almost trans- continental freight tariffs before it is put down in the warerooms of St. Louis wholesalers. “The Washington avenue dry roods men have said that there is no better location in the country for kindred cotton product factories to sup- ply St. Louts’ own trade and for Pacific export. The business men of the city believe that the industry properly devel- oped and given the natural commercial advantages of. the location, would add a large population to St. Louis.” Great Furniture Business. Concerning the development of. tb furniture trade Mr. Kastor said: ‘That is another most important mat ter that has already received the atten tion of the club. St. Louls is the sec. ond largest furniture manufacturing point in the country.

The club also adopted resolutions favoring ihe freo bridge bond issue, following a speech by L. C. Irvine. rangement of certain trade difficulties many more buyers (wholesale) would be. glad to come into the St. Louis market twice a year on account of the location of the city. “Promotion and advertising will go a long way toward making this city a Mecca, twice each year, of the furniture dealers and jobbers of the country. By increasing the output of our furniture fe.ctories the number of employes is in- creased, the population of the _ city growing relatively. The ball will reil naturally if given a start in the right direction.’’ Ii. E. Lesan, whose plan won the Post-Dispatch prize of $500 for increas- ing the population of the city to a mil- lion, said: “It was one thing to get a feasible plan for the work and another to secure the funds with which to execute the plan. The plans of the Million Club and the Kastor agency, as I have heard them, appear to me of the kind that wiil accomplish the work. Of course the policy of adhesive or concrete ef- fort must be adhered to—we must all pull together to secure the greatest measure of success. SICK HEADACHE aie ieee these Little Pills.
