, BY JOHN FAY, Chicago Correspondent of the Post- Dispatch, Who Was Sent to San Francisco Immediately on Receipt of First News of Disastcr. SAN FRANCISCO, April 27.—Three more heavy earthquake shocks were felt at Salinas, 120 miles south of San Francisco, last night, one at 8 o'clock, another at 9:50, and last at 2 o clock this morning. The shocks lasted abont four seconds each, but so far as known did no damage. The news could not be reported from falinas earlier because of the lack of bl] communication. The damage at Salinas from the earthquake shock of last week is in excess of $1,000,000. The Salinas River is reported to have been sunk ten or twelve feet all along its course for miles. Nearly all of the bridges across the river have been condemned and -will have to be rebuilt. To Make Oakland Best Port. A group of fiananciers, taking ad- vantage of this city’s misfortunes, seek “to snatch her commercial supremacy from her. A syndicate has been formed to make Oakland @ deep-sea. port. by building ‘@ocks and piers into deep water. One of the syndicate members ie the Key Route Ferry. and Ratlway System, a competitor of the Southern Pacific. “It is the intention,” says the speaker for the syndicate, ‘to make Oakland the chief maritime shipping port on the Pacific Coast. The énterprise con- templates the filling of (00 acres of shoal water and the construction of a mole capable: of - docking. the largest ships that enter the bay.” The price of Oakland city real estate : is going up by leaps and pounds.

All vacant houses have been taken .and people who have country homes are leasing their city homes at a fancy figure, and are moving out of and town. Thirty-Eight Earthquakes. The agitation of the earth continues in the bay region. At 5 o'clock Thurs- day morning there was a ‘baby quake’’ that was No. 38 since the Titanic up- heaval. This is the record of the Cha- pot Observatory in Oakland. A count of the homeless in the three big camps, Golden Gate Park, Fort Mason and the Presidio, shows but 10,- 0 in the park, 8000 at Fort Mason and 15.000 in the Presidio. About four thou- eand- Chinese and Japanese are en- camped near Russian Hill. These fig- wres indicate an enormous exodus since Sunday. At that time the estimate was 400,000 in the three big camps. There are 10.000 in camps in Oakland, Berke- ‘Jey and Alameda. A number estimated at 100,000 have found shelter under roofs. The injured in the hospitals number 3050 and Gen. Greely’s last count of the dead is 290. The entire work of Aistributing supplies has been taken from the Citizens’ Relief Committee and turned over to the military au- thorities. Mayor Schmitz, who for- y warded the plan. said: ‘It became evident that the gre- work of caring for the homeless would soon get bevond the facilities of the various relief committees. Un- der the circumstances existing in San Francisco, the relief work cannot be efficiently and properly maintained without the co-operation of the mili- | tary authorities. “The work of restoring the city is a problem of such enormous proportion~« and private interests are of such vital moment to the vast majority of busi- ness men, that the future of the city would be placed in a precarious condi- tion if some such move were not tak- ““GONTINUED ON PAGE FOUR. ~ ARREST WAS A MISTAKE.

SHAW’S BOOM STARTED

After Hearing Himself Praised, Secretary of Treasury Talks Tariff.

Active Sim Harris. under whose di- rection Secretary of the Treasury Shaw is appearing in St. Louis, defended his title to champion activity soloist of the State by knocking Horace E. Beedle over the footlights into the orchestra and almost into the middle of next week Friday afternoon. Beedle was formerly chief clerk in the office of former Internal Revenue Col- lector Ben Westhus. He is known as an Akins man. When Harris decided to entertain Mr. Shaw in St. Louis he said that Akins and Niedringhaus would be persona non Srata at the Music Hall meeting. The meeting was getting along as well as could be expected when Harris had occasion to leave the Stage by way of a narrow plank running from the footlights over the orchestra pit.

ABITRARY CUT BOOMS BUSINESS Many Firms Order Cumberland Gap Despatch to Deliver in St. Louis. Following the call upon shippers ,ot freight to and from the East, by the officials of the Cumberland Gap Des- patch, a long list of the customers of that line was telegraphed to the Nor- folk (Va.) agent of the company con- veying their imperative orders that freight for them be billed to Broadway station of the Louisville & Nashville Railroad. It is on this showing of preference for St. Louis that the offi- ciuls of the line will base their applica- tion for the same rate from Eastern points to St. Louis as is applied to East St. Louis. By the application of the same rate to the two points—St. Louis and East St. Louis—St. Louis customers of the Cum- berland Gap Despatch will gain 2 cents a hundred pounds on their freight, either to or from Eastern cities. While the names of all the firms or- dering the delivery of freight to the Broadway depot of the Louisville & Nashville in St. Louis is not obtainable, a- partial list follows: Carpets—Kennard Carpet Co., Tro- licht.

Breweries—Lemp Brewing Co., An- heuser-Busch Brewing Association. Nearly all of the firms enumerated receive their shipments in carload lots and save by the application of the same rate to St. Louis as to Hast St. Louis, from $9 to $13 a car, ac- cording to the size of the car and the ification of the freight shipped.

Robert P. Holcombe, chauffeur for. Theodore Marx, who lives at the’ West- moreland Hotel, and Fred Grinham, also a ¢hauffeur, were fined $10 each Friday by Judge Tracy in the City Hall Po- lice Court for exceeding the speed limit. Thé men were captured Thursday aft- ernoon after a chase of a mile by police- men in one of the police automobiles. Both paid the fines and left the court- room smiling. Patrolman Steinger of the Mounted District was in the automobile with Police Chauffeur Gardner, when, round- ing’ the turn from Spring avenue to go ea on Washington avenue, they saw the two chauffeurs coasting easily and swiftly east, abreast, and exchanging remarks as they went. Policeman Steinger estimated’ the speed at that time at 18 miles at hour. He instructeqd Gardner to fall. in behind the chauffeurs, who had not seen them. and overtake-the machines. Each chauf- feuy occupieq his machine alone. Approaching Compton avenue the, chauffeurs became aware that they were being followed and increased their speed. The 20-horsepower machines sprang for- ward with new impetus. . ) Gardner also threw en more “power. He’ said tn court that the three cars were then making at least 30 miles an hour. Vehicles and people scattered in every direction as the race progressed.’ Leffingwell the fugitives -: turned: their machines south to Locust street street. east again on the. “smoother street. a he clumsier police auto lost little tinte in. making the furn. The. chauf- feures saw this and on Jefferson turned to Diive. In making the turn from Jef- ferson east on Olive the police ma- chine again lost time on account of the crowd that ran into the street to watch the flying cars. It looked as though the two chauffeurs were racing. But by putting, on more speed the po- licé automobile overtook Holcombe on Twenty-third street. Steinger jumped into his car, placed him under arrest, and told him to follow Grinham’s ma- chine. Holcombe obeyed, muttering. Under Steinger’s directions, Gardner continued east on Olive street.

Ee Good Beer i For Good Health Eminent Doctors State Positive- ly That It Is a Splendid Tonic Without Injuri- ous Effect. Much has been said recently of the value of beer as a tonic and an aid to digestion by eminent medical men. They assert that good pure beer is reafiy a food of remarkable nourish- ing qualities. It does not stimulate, but it invigorates, by increasing the activity of the nerve centers in the normal way that all wholesome, well digested food does, Liebig, the cele- brated German chemist, called pure beer (such as Pabst Blue Ribbon beer) “liquid bread” on account of its great nourishing value, and many doctors prescribe it freely as a tonic and an aid to digestion.

SHAW’S DEFENSE OF THE TARIFF Secretary Shaw’s extended argument in support of the tariff was taken by his hearers at Music Hall as an outline of t he Administration's tariff policy. The following is a summary of the argument, without’ direct The original. purpose of the policy of protecticn was to develop Amer- ican industries until they were able to compete with those of other na- tions. Then, it was supposed, protection would be no longer needed. But meanwhile, under protection, wages have increased to a figure 50 per cent higher than those of any other country, and 1 0 0 per cent higher than the world's average. To abandon protection would be to lower this standaftd of: wagesfand consequently of living. : Every person who is both a producer and a consumer hag conflicting personal interests in regard to’ the tariff. As a consumer, he would desire the tariff removed, that°he may purchase goods cheaper. AS a producer, he would have it maintained, that he may get high wages. : The Republican policy holds the interests of the producer as more im- portant to géneral prosperity, and holds it relatively unimportant what is paid for goods or labor, provided the Money goes to Americans. : The Democrats would give the best market in the world in which to buy. The Republican party offers to create the best market in the world in which to sell. The country cannot have both. To those who have noth- ing to sell but their labor, it offers high wages; to the farmer and, the manufacturer it offers high prices and ready markets. The tariff must be consistent, as is the Dingley barley by a duty; malt, the product of barley,. by a higher duty; and with a still higher duty. tariff. This protects.

He en- tered the hall in company of Sim Harris, Judge Leo Rassieur, T. J. Akins, Gen. John W. Noble, Henry Fairback and R. C. Kerens. BOY BURNED ON | CAR PLATFORM Youth Riding on Sand Box En- veloped by Flames From the Vontroller Box. CLOTHING CAUGHT FIRE Hands Blistered and He Is Seri- ously Injured Before He Is Rescued. That it is dangerous to ride on the front platform of a street car is shown by the experience of John New, 17 years old, who is at his home at 212 St. George Street seriously burned. John was doing what hundreds of St. Louisans do every day. He was sitting On the sand box on the left hand side of the platform, watching the motorman as he started and stopped the car with a Simple twist of the wrist. Apparently he was in no more danger than if-he had been seated inside the car. But something happened which may happen any time and before he could escape he was penned: up in a corner of the platform and was envel- oped by flames. ! The little handle which the motor- man works is not as simple as it looks. It is connected with many Wires. and compltcated machinery in a long, upright, black-box, which is right in front of a person standing on the left side Of the platform. .Sometimes the current goes astray and tries .to take short cuts instead of picking its way through all these little wires. Then, there is.a fire. Flames Came From Box, That is what happened when John New was riding south on a Broadway Car at Olive street. Many shoppers and passers-by heard the noise of an explosion. The next instant the door of that long black box flew open and the flames shot out toward New. There was no time to get away. In a second the fire had blistered the skin from the backs of his hands and his wrist and the left side of his coat was in flames. Motorman William Cox helped the boy to beat out the fire, and by ex- tinguishing his coat probably saved his life. Patrolman Deuker called an ambu- ance and New was taken from the busy corner to the City Dispensary, where his injuries were pronounced serious. The physicians tried to per- suade him to go to the City Hospital, but he insisted.that he be taken home. Capt. Robert McCulloch said Post-Dispatch reporter: ‘Accidents like these will occur, but we are trying our best to make them less frequent. All traffic is attended by some danger and I do not think we are called upon to prohibit passengers from riding on the front platform because of an occasional accident like this. ‘Many people like to ride there and insist on it and we always try to please the greatest number of our patrons. If we thought there was any real, constant danger to our patrons who ride on the front platforms we would not let them do it.’’ ‘ to a eee. ee a man in our country occupies a place of higher trust today than does the guest of the evening. ‘IT now take pleasure in presenting to you Mr. Nat Frank, who will act as chairman and introduce to you . the speaker of the evening.” Why Not Promote Him? Mr. Frank referred directly to the presidential boom of Secretary Shaw whom he praised as one of the coun- try’s greatest statesmen. “Since Secretary Shaw,” said ‘Mr. Frank, ‘Shas done his work so well and has proven so capable in his present position, would it not be well for him to be offered something better by the Re- publican party?’ Loud cheers greeted this suggestion. Secretary Shaw began his address with a reference to his previous visits to Missouri. In the course of his speech the Sec- retary decried reform movements con- ducted without the ranks of the regu- larly established political parties. He criticised the independent voter. “The leaders of all political parties,” said Secretary Shaw, ‘‘are honest, patal- otic and high-minded. The Democratic party, the Prohibition party, the Social- ist party, are each dominated by honor- able men. A few scamps in a party, and they exist in a smaller number in all parties than ever before in our coun- try’s history, do not justify universal condemnation any more than ae f scamps. in a church, and they, too, exist in a smaller number,. thank God, than ever before in the history of the church. “But a political party that believes nothing, has no doctrine, is not built around principle, ‘is as worthless as a church without a belief. “Do not misunderstand me. I am not advocating adherence to party because of party name, regardless of politigal principles, but loyalty to political prin- ciples because they are believed to pe correct. “The independent voter, the man who sees nothing in political parties but the personality of their candidates, may be a good man and a patriotic citizen, but we are in a sad plight. when those who believe in nothing in particular and everything in general, and who vyote according to the instinct of the hour in- stead of according to the principles of a lifetime, control our elections. ‘“T have no fears for my country so long as the American people think out their plans, formulate their policies and consistently adhere to them. My fear is of an incoherent, independent, undis- eiplined aggregation of well-inten- tioned men, following a _ purposeless though ambitious leader, who promises much impossible of fulfillment, anu whose chief argument is an indefinite protest against well-recognized and in- herent evils which have existed from the infancy of the race, and which will continue while men remain mortal and so long as human nature continues to control the human family.’’ CANNON’S HOME TOWN STARTS OFF HIS BOOM.

Hill, representa- tive of the Hargadine-McKittrick Dry Goods Co., and J. E. Folck, a boot and shoe man, narrowly escapeq death in Santa Rosa when the Hotel Saint Rose collapsed. . Hill for four hours lay pinivoned under large timbers. He wag rescued by mem- bers of the Elks Lodge, badly bruiséd. Folck saved himself by standing in a doorway during the earthquake shock. He got out of bed at the first shock and was slightly injured in his knee and ankle. His bed and sample trunks were smashed flat.

en. The system of checking will be inaugurated at the 70 or more dis- tributing stations to prevent the wasting of supplies and the issuance of greater quantities than is neces- sary for all present needs.”

Governor Indignant. | There was a very pretty row over ithe withdrawal of the militia at a ‘conference yesterday, but the militia is still here. Gov. Pardee praised the militia and their services, and said the request of Mayor Schmitz and his committee for his soldiers’ withdraw- al, and their accusations made him so indignant that he did not want to talk about it. The Oakland Relief Committee to- day astonished the fan Francisco committee by demanding one-fourth of the funds and supplies contributed by the Government and the people of the whole country. “Oakland is giving food and shelter to one-fourth of the San Francisco unfortunates,’’ says the plea. “Funds are running low. A share of the Gov- ernmént’s appropriation of $2,560,000 to the relief work and share of the subacriptions of the outside world to the same humane cause is deemed the just due of the Oakland Relief Com- mnittee, rand a. proportionate share of the géneral relief fund is asked by the Relief Committee of Oakiana. “One hundred thousand homeless, hungry refugees is a low estimate for the number Oakland has cared ‘(for since the fire last week. “For the relief of stricken San Fran- cisco a sum total of $20,000,000 has been subscribed by the Government and the United States at large. The Oakland relief camp has accepted thé duty of caring for one-fourth of the needy of devastated San Francisco, and, therefore, feels justified in peti- tioning for a proportionate share of the general appropriation.” While a generous fund is to be giv- en Oakland, nothing like one-fourth of the total contributions is contem- plated, The underwriters have reported that 21 buildings, mostly warehouses close to the docks, are in a safe condition. It was decided that the new China- town will be at Hunter’s Point, three miles south by west of the old town. 200,000 Persons Leave. According to an official estimate, San Francisco's population has been reduced hy 200,000. This estimate probably ts too low, for the Southern Pacific Railroad's estimate shows that about 225,000 refugees were oar- ried out of the ruined city on their trains aione. A hundred and twenty- nine trains were used for the refu- gees. It is believed, however, that many of these people will return to San Francisco when they have located their friends and relatives or have rehabilitated, in a measure, their finances. The embargo against public ingress has been lifted, and crowds are pouring into the city. As a mat- ter of fact, the number of persons coming in will about offset the ex- odus, FEAR “SHORTY,” OF YALE CAMPUS FAME, PERISHED : Special to the Post-Dispatch. ' NEW HAVEN, Conn., “Shorty Moses’’ or ‘“‘Moses Shorty,” also known to Yale men as “Shorty” and ‘‘Mose,’’ who has bought and sold old clothes on the Yale campus for years, is believed to have been lost in the San Francisco disaster. His real name is Louis Rosenblum, put few know him by that name. Mrs. Rosenblum has sent word to Yale men that if ‘‘Shorty’’ should com- municate with any of therm to let her know. She says the last she saw of her husband he was running from his recently established second-hand cloth- ing store in Howard street, San Fran- cisco, during the fire. She lost track of him and got aboard an Oakland ferry with her child. She feels that if “Shorty’’ escaped some Yale man will find him, as he knew nearly all of them. The Rosenblums only recently left here for San Francisco, owing to a re- cent order of the faculty at Yale bar- ring old clothes men from the cam- pus and requesting students to _ sell their old clothes to a student chartiy enterprise for supplying organizations outside of college. STREET CAR CONDUCTOR RICH MAN’S BENEFACTOR Special to the Post-Dispatch. DENVER, Colo.., April 27.—A splendid example of the reversal of financial con- ditions, and of how men Spring to each other's aid in time of distress, came to light today when Asa Wilson, a San Francisco street car conductor, arrived here with Mrs. G. J. McConnell and her three little girls in his charge. McConnell had a big store in San San Francisco and was worth $75,000: Wilson's wife was private secretary to When the fire consumed the McConnell store all his money was in the banks or in the safe in the store and the McConnell family was left only half clothed and without a cent. The street car conductor and his wife had some cush on hand which they managed to save, as their house did not fall at the first shock. Mrs. Wilson immediately sought the McConnells and found the mother and children prostrated by the shock. Me. Connell tried to get money to send his family to friends in White Rock, 8. D., but he could not raise a cent. The Wilsons had money enough to get to Colorado, but there was fear of a pes- tilence in San Francisco and they could not bear to leave Mrs. McConnell and her children there. They shared their mite with the McConnells and brought them here. Now, as Mrs. McConnell is too sick to travel alone, Wilson wil] take her and the children to White Rock. They do not know that he is nniless now and will have to work is way back. WAR DEPARTMENT ROW OVER FRISCO TROOPS. Kpecial to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, April 27.—Gen. A. Ww. Greely, in command at San Francisco. won a big victory over the clique in the War Department when Secretary Taft ordered the 2500 additional troops

April -27.—

to San Francisco. Gen. Ainsworth, in- the absence of Secretary Taft, on Wednesday not only declined to order more troops to san Franciseo, but said there was no law which would jub’tify such a course; tha: there were no tents for the use of tha troops, and sent @ dispatch to Gen | A Sh ORGS EG. A ART Ve Greely which was characterized in the War Department as but little short of insulting. it is well known here that Gen. Grec- ly and Gen. Ainsworth, the Military Secretary, are not friends. - Another reason why the troops were not ordered to San Francisco, in the opinion entertained by some army offi- cers, is that it might eventually make the army unpopular. It is said by these officers that when a great. calamity oc- curs and the troops are sent to protect

~ the first few days hailed as saviors. But after they have been on the scene for awhile the people become tired and dis- satisfied, then roundly denounce the troops and demand their instant with- drawal. Gen. Ainsworth and some of the other officers of the army feared that this mignt occur at San Francisco, and this was one motive which led to the denia! of the request of Gen. Greely for more trocps. When Secretary Taft returned to town he instantly directed that Gen. Gen. Oliver, the Assistant Secretary of War, has telegraphed the most ab- ject apology to Gen. Greely for his ac- tion in directing Gen. Ainsworth to re- ject Greely’s request for tiona! mores. Gen. Oliver, who was the Act- ing Secretary of War Wednesday in the absence of Secretary Taft, advised n. Greely that the department has abso- lute confidence in his ability and judg- ment, and that Oliver's timidity led him to direct Gen. Greely to reconsider his request for more t Greely be given all the troops nece to deal with the situation. Telegraphic orders were then given to, have 200 troops sent to San Francisco by ex- press trains. Some of them will reach there tomorrow. Gen. Greely sent two strong dis- patches to the War Department. He pointed out in vivid language the situa- tion existing at San Francisco and showed that the homeless number a quarter of a million people and that he had under his command but oné soldier of Gen.

HEHEART NEURALGIA IN ‘HIS FORM IS OFTEN FATAL. iii a A Complicated Case Cured to Stay Cured by Dr. Williams’ ‘Pink Pills. Neuralgia in any orm is painful, but when it attacks the heart it 1s frequent-

ly fatal. Complicated with indigestion of a form that affected the vital or- it threatened ee eonsequences n an instance just reported. The case is that of Mr. F. Li Graves, of Pleas- anthill, La., who tells of his trouble and cure as- follows: ““T traveled considerably, was ex- sed to al] kinds of weather and was irregular in my sle¢ping and eating. | suppose this was thg cause of my sick- ness; at any rate, in May, 1905, I got so bad that I was compelled to quit work and take to my bed. I had a ood doctor and took his medicine aithfully, but grew worse. I gave up hope of getting better and my a bors thought: I was surely going to die. “I had smpthering spells that it is awful to ll. My heart fluttered and then seemed to cease beating. I could not lie on my left side at all. My hands and feet swelled and so did my face. After reading about Dr. Wil- liams’ Pink Pills in a newspaper I de- cided to try them and they suited my ease exactly. Before long I could see an improvement and after taking a few boxes [I was entirely cured. I ‘am glad to make this statement and wish it could cause every sufferer to try Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills.” . Williams’ Pink Pills do not sim- ly deaden pain; they cure the trou- le which causes the pain. They are guaranteed to contain no _ narcotic, stimulant or opiate. Those who take them run no danger of forming any drug habit. The pills are a blood and nerve tonic and they cured Mr, Graves because they fed the nerves through the blood. They act directly on the blood, and it is only through the blood that any medicine can reach the nerves. In this way they have cured the most severe disorders such as par- tial paralysis, locomotor ataxia, St. Vitus’ dance and all sorts of nervous H.-J. Fi Good, engineer, was killed and C.

WEST TO FRONT IN WHIST PLAY Records Show Cavendish Is Known Beyond Eastern Cities.

CONGRESS TO DETROIT

St. Louis Woman Decides Con- vention—Meeting Closes Friday. BY ROSE MARION, West whist has scored well at the Woman’s Whist League, which will close its five days’ cohgress at the Southern Hotel Friday evening. The game of Cavendish, according to rec- ords made, is known beyond the suburbs of Boston, New York and Philadelphia. If whist hasn't come to the West of its own accord, the women of the West have gone after it successfully. The spirit of the West has been in- fused into the game and some of the Eastern women wonder at the daring displayed by the western players. The latter are satisfied to know that that daring has in most cases counted. It won the Philadelphia cup for Omaha, as well as the tall silver candlesticks which were presented to the players, Mrs. Martin and Mrs. Bailey. Convention in West. Now that the East was pitted against the West ag one visitor supposed who saw the whist signs, North, South, East and West posted about the different rooms. But the many trophies won by western women and the decision to meet in a western city in 198, caused the division to be noted and women who congratulated other women to add to their felicitations: “So glad a western club won.’’ The wins of the West are: Pitta- burg traveling trophy, Detroit; St. Louis trophy, S8t. uis; Cavendish trophy, Chicago; Philadelphia trophy, Omaha; the congress of 1908, Detroit. The division between the East and shown at the business meeting Thursday afternoon, when an established rule of the congress was changed. Hitherto one congress has been held in the West to two in the East. The Western women asked for a change Thursday afternoon to one and one. St. Louls Woman Decides. The clubs were divided 22-22, and to a St. Louis woman. Mrs. Harry G. Noel, president of the league, was left the deciding vote. She voted for the West. No discus- sion arose in regard to the congress of 1907, as it was decided at the time of Mrs. Cannon’s election to the vice- presidency that when she was pro- moted to the presidency the congress would be held in her home city, New York. The East won one trophy Thursday when the New Amsterdam Club of New York was awarded the Toledo troph's There is still opportunity for the Washington, New Amsterdam, Brooklyn and Quaker Gity trophies. The winning of the hiladelphia cup by the Omaha Club caused much interest because its closest rival was the Howell Club of Boston, for which Mrs. Waterhouse and Mrs. Taylor played. Mrs. Waterhouse’s ability as a whist player is national and her defeat by a half-match by an Omaha team called forth the following story of Edward E. Paramore, one of St. Louis’ best story tellers. Story of Parnmore. Mr. Paramore was once a member of a Boston club. While sitting in the reading room, a Westerner came in, and with the confidential spirit of his section, he told Mr. Paramore pane this was his first visit to Bos- on. “Great town,” said Mr. Paramore. “You must see it. See every bit of it. It's the Omaha of the East.” Tt is said that Mr. Paramore’s Bos- tonian Club members raised his dues for that, but he would have been partially venged Thursday afternoon had he seen the hugs and kisses Western women re the winning Omaha pair, who beat oston at its own game. Witnesses say that the Howell team peeves an excellent game, but that the nguessable fortunes of whist were inst a e officers chosen for next year are: President, Mrs. Henry Cannon, New first_ vice-president, Mrs. James .

Taft's Orders to Make All Tele- grams Public Were Violated. Special to the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, April 27.—Since Gen. Bell became Chief of Staff of the Army, a bitter feeling -has developed on the part of Gen. Ainsworth, the Military Secretary. Before Gen. Bell Staff, Gen. Ainsworth made public al! news dispatches and countersighe‘4 all the orders issued by the Secretary of War or Gen. Bates, who was Chie! General. Gen. Bell is Chief of Staff with the rank of Brigadier-General. Which is one grade lower than the rank of Gen. Ainsworth, who is a Major-General. Gen. Bell as Chief of rected by law to give superiors as well as his inferiors in rank. Jen. Bell made public some telegrams relating to the earthquake at San Francisco. Soon afterward Genv Ainsworth heard of this action and he‘Swanted an explanation. He visited the office of Gen. Bell and for some minutes an animated conversa- tion took place. Gen. Ainsworth re- turned to his office in anything but a happy mood, ¥ Staff is di- orders to his Telegrams Suppressed, About two hours later more. dis- patches regarding the earthquake were received by the War Depart- ment, and they were sent by Gen. Bell to Gen. Ainsworth with instructions to make them public. Gen. Ains- worth did not obey these orders, and just before the office closed for the day the fact was called to the atten- tion of Secretary Taft that important dispatches had been suppressed by Gen, Ainsworth. Secretary Taft sent verbal orders to Gen. Ainsworth to make public all the dispatches relating to the earth- quake that he had in his possession. This was done instantly, and since this order there has been little or no trouble in the office of the Military Secretary in obtaining information, but duplicates of all these important the office of the Chief of Staff. Gen. Ainsworth resents bitterly re- ceiving orders from an _ official in- ferior in rank. For two years Gen. Ainsworth has countersigned all or- ders issued to the army, but since Gen, Bell became Chief of Staff, Gen. became Chief of ! af Staff. with the rank of Lieutenant-, communications are also to be hag at | Ainsworth has declined to counter- sign the orders issued by Gen. Bell because Bell’s rank is one grade low- er than Ainsworth’s. So as to have the . orders properly countersigned, Col. McCain, in the office of Gen. Ainsworth, now signs all orders is- sued by Gen. Bell, under the title of “Military Secretary,” which belongs to Gen. Ainsworth according to law. McAlevey Burial Saturday.

Mrs. Anna Trescher of 822 Ann av- errmue’is highly indignant at the protest of neighbors because sbe Keeps 5&1 pets in her back yard. The pets are the sole objects of her affection and care, and she-doesn'’t see Why anyone should ob- ject-to them. The Board of Health Is investigating the matter, to see whether the place-is entirely sanitary. Foi.owing the compiaint of neighbors thut Mrs. Yrescher'’s premises were un- Satiitury, shp appeared Thursday after- noon before ‘the board to make her an-: swer, She sald the place was perfectly healthful.

We fully appreciate the meaning of the term “Hand-Made,” as ¢ . you will appreciate the magnitude of this offer after investigation 4

gy |ATURALLY, a store that underbuys can undersell. Our posi- tion as purveyors of good clothing to thousands of patrons gives us a wonderful outlet, enabling us to secure concessions in the matter of price that ordinary stores find : | absolutely impossible of attainment. To sell ‘‘hand-made”’ garments at. $11.50 is unusual, extraordinary. But we must sell as we buy. When we make a good deal, a lucky purchase, our patrons reap the benefit of it. From this policy we never swerve, never de- viate one iota. In the open market, wide-awake and vigilant, with cash in hand, our buyers are doing good work, closing out great quan- tities of high-grade apparel for men and boys from the country’s leading makers, at prices much below normal. That’s why we are able to sell ‘‘hand-made”’ Suits tomorrow for $11.50, indisputably the grandest values ever offered by a St. Louis clothing store. It’s the manufacturer’s loss, your gain. The materials are faney worsteds, in dark, medium, light and medium light gray effects; also blue serges; coat cut single and double breasted, with hand-made buttonholes, hand-felled collar; long, medium and extra long; side and center vents; full and semi-flaring skirt; form-fitting, shape defin- ing; young men’s sizes, 32 to 36; men’s sizes, 35 to 44; also stouts, slims, and extra sizes.

Line cas® was continued two weeks un- tHl lispector Knapp can visit the place and inake a report on it. The list of Mrs. ‘rescher’s dumb Wards is as follows: Cow, pony, par- rot, 30 pigeons, 12 kids, four goats, 8 pairs of Belgain hares, 20 bantam chick- ens and 12 white mice. Mrs. Trescher thinks that is ail Mrs. Trescher doesn’t raise the ani- mals as a means of income. When her: husband,'a commission man, died Match 11 he- left her a comfortable estate. She keeps the pets: because slie loves them. Her whole day is spent in feeding them and _ looking after their comfort. Wihen one of them is siek, or the parrot and the wirite mice fail to @~et along amicably, or the goats _try to eat the chicken coeps, she sometimes loses sleep over them. | They, Used to Be 400. When Mr. Trescher was alive, the pets numbered:about four hundred. He-was as ‘fond of them as she, but his affection had a tinge of commer- cialism to it..bécause he could use them in his business. After his death she, reduced, the number because she couldn’t take care of so many. The lot wkere Mrs. Trescher lives is 15 by 40 feet. Her home occupies halfof it. In the rear are the homes of the pets. The quarters are a little crowded, of course, but not nearly so much s@ as when Mr. Trescher was alive and the colony numbered hun- dreds. The pony and cow take up the most room. The goats live in the sanze stable. The pligyons are aloft and. the chickens and hares have coOoDs. “When my husband was alive no

POLICE. OF PARIS SEARCH FOR ARMS Raid Labor Offices and .Jour- nals and the Homes of Royalists. PARIS, April 27.—The police adopted decisive measures this morning to ap- prehend the element which is fomenting disorder and to capture the sources of its supplies. ly in the day a search was made of the headquarters of the Confederation of Labor and also of its 8 branches throughout the city. Simultaneously the police searched the homes of a number of Royalist sympa- thizers who were eoepecter of encourag- ing disorder in the hope of effecting a coup d'etat. The officers of La Crofx, a reactionary paper, were also searched. Important papers, it is understood, were found at the homes of some of the Royalists. The search of the headquarters of the Confederation of Labor yielded negative . results. BOY BURNED ON CAR. Flame Leaped From an Over- heated Motor. A tongue of flame, leaping from the top of the-motor on the front platform of a Broadway car, seriously burned John New of 212 St. George street about the hands and wrists, and he is confined to-his- home. He is 17 years old. ‘ John boarded the northbound car Thursday afternoon and_sat on the mo- torman's stool because the car was crowded. Oil in the motor is supposed to have begome overheated and burst into flame. The motorman wanted to take the boy to a drug store, but he went to the City Dispensary alone. He is employed by an embroidery com- pany.

His idea is te isolate it—keep it all to himself. : Humansville” who happens to be the Missouri mem- Ber of the Republican National Committee, and the “mani who held up the breweries for $21,000,” who happens to be the chairman of the State Republican Committee, to keep away from Mr. Shaw, the Shaw- Harris circus and the Shaw boom—ten feet away. They cannot even peep under the canvas. But what of Secretary Shaw, whose boom is thus isolate 1, set apart and monopolized for the delecta- tion of Mr.-Sim Harris! Of course, Mr. Shaw will ke permitted to participate in his circus; in small type—he can ride on the elephant—if he is good. But how does he like to be cut off from the State and National committees, the small merchants and the breweries ? One can only imagine Mr. Shaw’s feel- ings.

F Public attention has been centered for ten days on city ruined by an earthquake; and that event ‘followed closely the destruction of towns upon the slope’ of Vesuvius. There is a _ popular lotion ‘that there is some connection between these disasters. The next Sunday Post-Dispatch will graphically present the conclusions of such Scientists as Gustav Hambach, professor of geology in Washington University; Angelo Heilprin, president ef the Geographical Society of Philadelphia, and Jo- geph Le Conte, professor of geology in the University @f California. These men have studied the problems of the earth’s disturbances profoundly and what they have to say is illuminative. i‘ ; me ; UNINTENTIONAL DELAY.

_ When Senator Beveridge of Indiana takes occasion | to “resent the idea that there has been intentional delay at Washington in admitting the Southwestern territories to the Union, he shows himself more of a humorist than had been suspected. > Prior to the treaty by which Florida was acquired from Spain, the United States claimed the whole Southwest to the Rio Grande under the Louisiana Purchare treaty. When James Monroe was charged With having done his best to get rid of this territory because such interests as Senator Beveridge now rep- Yesents were afraid it might finally have votes in the Senate, he wrote a confidential letter admitting that he had been influenced thus. 4 [f-Senator Beveridge will read this letter from James Monroe to Andrew Jackson, he will see that intentional delay” in letting the Southwest vote in the Senate .has existed since some time prior to its date of May 22, 1820. * When.the Attorney-General of Texas filed suits for 000,000 against the corporations of the Chicago eef Trust the other day, he gave the best possible lustration of the objections which keep Southwest- ern votes at a minimum in the Senate. If such “in- terests” as thase he attacked could rely on senators from new Southwestern states a4 confidently as they ‘Bo on Senator Beveridge, there would be no further delay, intentional or otherwise. See, ? The Kansas Democratic platform reminds President Roosevelt that he “indignantly” denied that there were lurge campaign contributions from the corpora- tions.

+ A GREAT LITERARY TREAT 4) Readers of the Sunday Post-Dispatch will, during ‘the 12 months beginning with the issue of Sunday, May 6, enjoy a literary treat such as never before ‘was offered the readers of any newspaper. Twelve of the most famous novel writers of America and England have produced, for the Sunday Post-Dis- patch, twelve ‘powerful novels, which, instead of being cut up into rief chapters and condensed in the cus- tomary manner—tantalizing the reader and destroy- ing the style)of the author—will be published un- abridged, in four parts each. Beginning with May 6, each Sunday Post-Dispatch will contain a ‘special fiction supplement, - with a fourth of the novel complete. Thus, instead of waiting a ypar to finish a long-drawn-out story, readers will finish one each month, and at the end of the twelve months will have beconfe acquainted, in advance of publication in book form, with twelve of the best novels of the most popular novelists of the day. ys ee ; | Robert Barr, the English novelist, whose story, “A.

Mrs. Burton Harrison, author of “The Anglo- maniacs,” and other stories, is unusually good as a creator of strong and interesting character studies. So are E. F. Benson, Mary E. Wilkins Freeman, John Oliver Hobbes (Mrs. Craigie), Amelia E. Barr and Gertrude Atherton. These writers are also famous the world over as tellers of absorbing love stories. Anna Katherine Green has proved that a woman writer can excel in the weird and mysterious. C. J. Cutliffe | product in the literary field, dealing | Hyne is a modern ith bold adventure and heroism under the most try- ing conditions. inspiris Mark Twain. Max Pembetton has flavor. He delights in the seeming impossible and fighting is second nature to his characters. lan Mac- laren stands in a class of his own, his works being especially enjoyed by readers of quiet, home-loving a Jules Verne temperament, Not sirice the first newspaper was issued has such ' a.task been proposed and overcome as the bringing together of twelve writers of the first magnitude in ‘he world of fiction and the creation by them of com- sjete novels for publication on the plan now proposed. he execution of the project Is.an unparalleled feat The preparation for publi- cation has taken a year, and involved an outlay of $150,000 for manuscripts alone. Readers of the Post- Dispatch will enjoy the result without extra cost. —$ $$$ > A large breach in the bridge toll wall on the east of St. Louis is promised in the expected announce- ment of the Cumberland Gap Dispatch freight line of the same rates to St. Louis as to East St. Louis. This will merely equalize the rates and will break down the discrimination between St. Louis and East St. Louis. The toll wall is crumbling.

their plans to the city’s purse, but insist upon mak-. ing a beginning of the work. They have cut down the plans and will urge the adoption of the modified ordinance. , It is hoped that the Board of Public Improvements and the Municipal Assembly will see the advantages of adopting so much of the plans as may be found feasible now. The city should strain a point to ac- complish the results embodied in the new lighting plan. The new system will not only enhance the beauty and attractiveness of the city by the brilliant il- lumination. of the streets, but it will promote busi- ness. It will be a valuable advertisement of the city through visitors whose opinions of St. Louis progress and St. Louis advantages will be strengthened by the brilliantly lighted thoroughfares. It will bea ‘good investment. Py in ol Entering upon a period of extraordinary growth and prosperity, St. Louis should rise to the new standard of progress and civic attractiveness in har- mony with her destiny. Start the street illumina- tion.

Dress reform has struck the Women’s University of Tokio and the kimono must go, “graceful and ar- tistic” though it be. “Japanese women,” says a writer in The World Today, “are demanding a change in their attire and this change is bound to come sooner or later.” What

‘they want is “something that appeals to their com- mon sense, that gives greater freedom of motion in their ever-increasing activity, that is becoming, and that is also foreignized.” Except the last requisite these are what dress re- formers in this country have been yearning for ever since bloomers flourished and faded. : With their acknowledged originality the Japanese ought to strike out a new path. A foreignized cos- tume would disappoint dress reformers in this coun- try. Our reformers, unable ‘to work out the problem themselves, have hoped for suggestions from Japan. It would be a pity if the Japanese women adopt modes which Western women find unsatisfactory, merely because they are foreign. a> rm rv | LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE | NO DIVORCES-IN SOUTH CAROLINA. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. — ‘Would advise ‘‘Lawyer” in Tuesday’s paper to read an article in Men and Women for April by J. Ham- ilton Bagot, entitled,’ ‘“‘The State Without Divorces. South Carolina is the only State in the Union which does not grant a divorce for any cause whatsoever. I agree with ‘‘Lawyer’ in thinking it an unjust law which compels a man and woman to live together when they cannot do so0 amicably. “whom God hath joined together let no man put asunder,” is the motto of this State. A wife may obtain a separa- tion from a tyrannical husband, or vice versa; but neither is allowed to contract a matrimonial alliance whilst the other lives. There is always lurking in

the minds of reckless young people the thought: “I Bi can rectify my mistake by getting a divorce and try- ing again.’’” Mr. W Benet, former Judge on the South Carolina bench, testifies to the cleanness and purity of the home life in the State referred to, owing to the no-divorce law. : St. Louis, April 25, 1906.

I take this means of commending Father Bond of St. Alphonsus’ Church upon his advice to young girls. I am a Protestant girl .of 17, a graduate from the Grammar Schools, and I never read a novel in my life. There is too much good literature for anyone to waste their time reading vile books.

SPRING STYLES IN LAWNS. The spring lawns will not be raked after mowing. Persons with rakes may give them away. Persons without rakes may go around and make faces at the hardware stores. The grass ends or clippings will be permitted to drop down into the grass and form a mulch which will be of great benefit to the lawn. It fertilizes the soil, and will give the lawn a plush-like ef- fect similar to the damask cheek of a girl. j The close shave is taboo. Knives will be set high enough from the ground to prevent soil slicing. Indeed, they will be so high that only the tips of the grass will be cut. Aside from being very important, this is easier. The close shave spoils the blades which spring from the surface, and destroys all that part of the plant which gives the lawn downyness and color. Lawns will be groomed three times a week. If just a little is taken off each time, the ugly and yellowish roots of the grass will not be exposed, and the lawn will be so soft that a naked baby can be dragged across it without getting a scratch. The standard depth for this season’s lawns will be two inches. They will be rolled up to May 1, and may be rolled on thereafter. Blue grass will continue in style. It won't be blue, but something of the sort is necessary to differentiate it from just grass. To cover balq spots upon the lawn, granulate the soil nicely and shoot ex- tra-chilled clover seed in with a gun. Lawns will not be trimmed with white rabbits this season. The style has gone to the bow-wows. ; —— — WHEN SEASONS MERGE. August L. Winterfeld...2713 Leffingwell fulda E.

As I came down Mount Tamalpais, To north the fair Sonoma hill Lay like a trembling thread of blue Beneath a sky of daffodils; ; Through tults green.a silver stream Ran south,to meet the tranquil -bay, Whispering n dreamy, tender tale Of vales and -valleys far away. As I came dcwn Mount Tamalpais, To.south the city brightly shone, Touched by the sunset’s good-night kiss Across the golden ocean blown; I saw its hills, its tapering masts, I almost heard its tramp and tread, And saw against the sky the cross Which marks the City cf the Dead.

As I came town Mount Tamalpais, To east San Pablo’s waters lay, Touched with a holy purple light, The benediction of the day; No ripple on its twilight tide, No parting of its evening veil Save dimly in the far-off haze, One dreamy, yellow sunset sail. As I came down Mount Tamalpais, To west heaven’s gateway opened wide, . And through it, cares, The cloud-ships floated with the tide; Then, silently through stilly air, Starlight flew down from Paradise, Folded her silver wings and slept Upon the shores of Tamalpais. freighted with day-

ST. LOUIS THROUGH FUNNY GLASSES Written for the Post-Dispatch By Irvin S. Cobb. T HUS early the athletic girl is preparing for a busy season at the old stand. The really prudent Percival will continue to wear goloshes along with his low-quarter shoes for some days yet, but the athletic girl isn’t hanging back a bit just because cold weather has the farewell habit worse than Bernhardt. This spring her fancy is turning toward a new brand of shirt waist that resembles part of the fatigue regalia of a member of the Plasterers’ Union. It’s about as fussy and ornate as a brick icehouse. Also she is still partial to those roomy, broad-toed, thick-soled shoes like a plain slothes man wears. Later on we'll find her going around bareheaded and with

POST-DISPATCH HOME READERS MAGAZINE

Wonderful News Service. From the St. Louis Mirror. Our morning papers should be asham- ed of themseives for the muddled and ragged manner in which they presented their stories of the San Francisco dis- aster Thursday morning ‘last. They threw the story into their columns with a& pitchfork, The matter was ragged, fakey, incoherent and undignified. They blazed in ugly headlines and their pic- tures and diagrams were poor, adding confusion to confusion. This was un- pardonable, as the editors had fully twelve hours to arrange to handle the Story, yet they didn’t do as well as the Post-Dispatch, which took its news off the wires sentence by sentence, and Slapped it into type, yet contrived a complete, rounded, consecutive, intelli- gent story with much descriptive skill, not overdone. The Post-Dispatch news service was wonderful in its sweep and is rationality. One feels ashamed of the Globe-Demo- ‘frat and Republic after comparing them with the Chicago Tribune and New York Sun, and one fecls proud of the Pcst- Dispatch for its sense of artistic value in the midst of a fearsome rush to get the news on the street within two hours of the disaster. In Defense of Mark Twain. From the New York World. The Russian authors are doing injus- tice to a good man who loves violence and is a warm personal friend of the revolutionists. Mark Twain never in- terfered with anybody's privacy, and we doubt if he cares a cent whether Gorky has two wives or eleven. Eleven wives would not inexpressibly shock him. He was in Salt Lake City at a time when that number was regarded as the irreducible minimum. The Russian brethren seem to have confused Mark Twain with the genial landlord of one of the village taverns who took a com- view of the eccentricities of

THE WOMAN’S CORNER

The Cone Hats. From the Millinery Trade Review. The cone hats are finding very willing favor for “‘ready-to-wear’’ use. A model in a cone hat of hemp Tagal braid, in raspberry red, faced with shirred chif- fon in a paler tone of red, and having a wide cachepeigne of the fiuffea chif- fon, has a long wing in the pale red, laid closely over the edge of the brim at the right side. A cone hat of crino- line braid in moss-green, faced with brown rough straw braid, has on and under the brim, at the left side, rows of wide lamp taffeta ribbon in printed floriation, the upper bow holding a raspberry-red full heron plume; and a} cachepeigne of brown fluffed tulle on a' bandeau. —

“Woman” and “Lady.” A judge at Derby, Conn., has just ruled that the term ‘‘woman,” applied to a woman, ‘s as honorable as ‘“‘lady.”’ In court a female witness was referred to by the counsel on the other side as ‘“‘this woman,” whereat the person to whom the phrase was applied objected strenu- ously. Was she justifieq in doing so? The Judge did not think so, but there was something in her indignation itself which seems to indicate that she de- tected a tone of disparagement in the lawyer's utterance; in which case, of course, her wrath was quite natural. It all depends. When employed with the intention of respect ‘‘woman’’ is more honorable than “lady,’’ just as Lincoln's ‘‘He looks like a man,” ap- plied to Whitman, was much more a compliment than ‘‘He looks like a gen- tleman’’ would have been. Whether, in the abstract, the term “woman” is nobler than “lady’’ can be determined by a very simple test.

MO. tions, “A perfect woman nobly planned,” and ‘Earth's noblest thing, a woman perfected.” Change the word “woman” in each case to “lady’—and see what you get. Yet it is possible for the sweet old word to be used contemptuously, as this Derby lawyer probably employed it. When an odious male person, filled with a sense of his own grandeur, begins a remark to a Derson of the opposite sex, “Now, my good woman,” she is per- a

fectly justified in taking offense. It is! not the term ‘‘woman” that offends her. but the flavor of condescension in thé remark. To put it briefly, it takes a gentleman to use the word “woman” and make it express the honor that belongs to it. Men who are. not gentlemen had better stick to the term “lady.”—New York Mall.

The Post-Dispatch will print answers to the above question from its readers. Letters limited to 150 words. Provide for Mother First. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. What would 1 do if $15,000,000 were left me suddenly? I would first of all provide my dear old mother with all the luxuries she denied herself while bring- ing me up. I would also establish and endow a night school for young men and women who in the city are merely earning enough to live on, and better their condition by teaching them trades and professions. And, lastly, I would use the influence that wealth is sure to bring, and part of the wealth itsélf, to further a better municipal and Federal governmegt. AN UNEDUCATED READER. Not an Easy Mark, To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. If $15,000,000 came into my possession I would go $100,000 better than any of our country’s millionaires in a contri- bution for the Frisco sufferers and still have plenty left to dispose of otherwise. I would also see to our Million Club and give them a helping™ hand. I would build a home of magnificent type in the city and also own a home in the coun- ty, which would have plenty of sur- rounding ground for any outdoor sport that I’d wish to indulge in. I'd be a friend of everybody, but no ‘easy mark,’ for I'd want the Golden Rule to be my motto, and of all my invest- ments they would remain in St. Louis, for I would want my money circulated among my people. WM. A. M. Rush the Co-Operative Commonwealth If I should come in possession of $15,- 000,000 I would do such things as to benefit the people in general. To do this one must bring about the Co-opera- tive Commonwealth, or Socialism. First I would build colleges all over the United States of America, engage the best talent to teach the economical question, give every young man a chance to get acquainted with that question, free of charze.' Build schools so that evry man will- ing to have his children educated on Socialism can do so. Establish a daily up-to-date Socialist

paper in every large city in this coun- try, for the benefit of the working class, and in five years I bet we would have Socialism where evry worker vould re- ceive the full value of his labor. What beter can humanity wish for? HARRY D. FROEHLICH. Become a Mr. Hyde. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I am, at the present time, enjoying life, and have. been since I came into this world, but if mjne enemy should wish to destroy my peace of mind. he would come to me and say: ‘Here is a sum of money for you—$15,000,000.”’ At that very moment the transition from a Dr. Jekyll to Mr. Hyde would take place.. From an easy-going, care- free man I would become the very op- posite, suspicious of every one, trusting no man, not even my best friend. Thus, you see, $15,000,000 would, instead of benefiting, do me an irreparable injury. I do not care for that much money. It it too large a sum for any man to have. I am happy and feel quite wealthy when I have a ten spot in my pocket, which, by the way, is not often. CHAPLINE. Bulla Airships. To the Editot of the Post-Dispatch. I think that if $15,000,000 were left to me to do away with I could easily find enough proper places for the money. I would help the pocr as much as possi- ble. And in any such catastrophe as has lately happened I would head the list of subscribers to a relief fund, I would live as a man of my wealth should live and I would give my best endeavors a8 much as possible to the moral and mental education of the fu- ture generation, especially those that have to work to support their brothers and sisters. I don't think that there is any too much Interest taken in the sci- ence of air-navigation, and I would de- vote a considerable amount to this dan- gerous occupation. In short, I would be liberal where it would benefit anybody and thank Heaven that I had had the chance to accomplish some good. L. HOP.

Edited by J. B. Sheridan

ST. LOUIS U. INSISTS. UPON FITZPORTER a &

Blue and White Will Not Play Athletic relations between St. Louis and Washington Universities haye been practically resevered as the result of the insistence of St.. Louis University upon! playing Lonnie Fitzporter in the series of baseball games that had been arranged between the two schools, and the refusal of Washington to play the series with Fitzporter in it. ‘4 Fitgporter is the young medical stu- dent |who played a few games in the |\Trollipy League last year, and who was reinsiated and placed in good _ stand-

he dates of the games had been set ay 5, 10 and 12, and while they inot been officially called off, that ultimate action will be speedily i was indicated when it was de- Friday morning that a meeting fashington University’s’ Athletic fi had been held Wednesday after- at which the members indorsed ction of Physical Director Ewer- in refusing to play St. Louis Uni- ty with Fitzporter in the Blue and © line-up. re appeags to be little chance for the polleges to come together on the mattpr as athletic representatives of both /insist that they are right in prin- le;}and fact in their position. Vashington claims that it cannot countenance the playing of Fitzporter because he is not an amateur, and St. Louis University wants to know who knows what an amateur is, if the Ama- Athletic Union card goes for any-

Girardeau have all played St. Louis University with Fitzporter in its Hne- up and have raised no objection to the A. A. U., insisting upon calling him an amateur. Opinion among the students at_ the two schools is widely different. Capt. Benecke of the Washington team says that the Myrtle and Maroon are very anxious to play St. Louis U. a “As far as the boys are concerned, said Benecke, ‘we are anxious to play the Blue and White and are perfectly willing to let-them have Fitzporter in the line-up. I think the series should be played out and not be called off on account of technicalities. Washing- ton can defeat St. Louis U. with nine Fitzporters in its line-up.’’ Among the St. Louis U. boys the feel- ing is unanimous that as the Grand avenue boys have the fastest college team in the State, that Washington is trying to get out of a bad licking. Ad- herents of the Blue and White point out that St. Louis U. does not iced Fitzporter in Its line-up, as in Depew, the ex-Chicago University player, they have just as good a man. But the stu- dents insist that it is the true St. Louls University spirit to remain steadfast to Fitzporter, avd that it is a matter of sentiment and. principle with the stu- dents that ‘the games should not be played without Fitzporter. In the meanwhile devotees of college athletics are wondering, ‘‘What is an amateur?’’ Manager Uni- morning Nivert ef St. Louis versity anno unced Friday

| BASERALL BABBLE

Come on, boys! Everybody take a kick at Cincinnati. The first real old-fashioned biff *’em out game of the season was pulled off when Boston made 19 runs and 2% hits off Washington, Chance has fallen down in batting the last few days. He is hitting up easy apn and needs te sandpaper his wil- ow. O'Leary of Detroit hit safely at least once in the first three games played by one Tigers. His average was almost Nealon looks like a man who will take on a lot of weight. His career will be short if he gets too heavy. Lindsay, the Detroit firstbaseman, made a fine start. He batted almost .500 in the first three games. Tenny seems to have captured a pair of prize youngsters for the Boston Na- tionals in Bates and Strobel. Bates has been hitting the ball for keeps, while Strobel’s work around the second sack has been good at all times. Lindaman, the young pitcher secured from Pitts- burg in exchange for Vic Willis, is an- other likely youngster. The Quakers will have to be reckoned th this year in the pennant race. st year the pitching staff was all that

kept Duffy's men frem pushing the Giants right to the finish. The twirlers look much better this year andgit will pay all the teams to keep their eyes on the young men from Slowtown. Young Pfeffer traded to Boston by Chicago in exchange for Pat Moran, will probably remain in fast company after his days asa pitcher are over. He has been hitting well since the-opening of the season and bids fair to become a first-class sticker. This is the time of the year that the youngsters are hammering the ball out of shape, getting two and three safeties a day. But wait a month or two, when the pitchers get next to the weaknesses of the newcomers, then watch the slump. The University of Illinois can boast of three successful big league pitchers in Falkenberg of Washihgton, Lundgren of Chicago and Pfeffer of Boston. The first two were pitching the Illini to the championship when Manager Jake Stahl of the Stahlwarts was doing the receiv- ing end of the battery work for G. Huff's collegians. Schreck is hitting the ball for keeps this year, as he made seven hits in his first four games, four of them being two-baggers. in 13 innings pitched Waddell fanned 15 men and only gave five bases on balls. Pretty good control for a left- hander.

SOX DESERVED TO WIN GAME —

Chicagoaz3 Hits Jacobson Con- stantly, While Ravens Could | Not Hit in Pinches. Chicags hit Jacobson hard and stead- ily and consistently all through Thurs- day’s baseball game at Sportsman’s Park and won 3 runs to 1. While there were many situations in the game in which a hit of one kind or another would have materially affected the final result, the grand principle on which it was lost and won lay in the hiting of the Comiskey troupe. The Ravens fell into their old habit of failing to hit when hits meant trouble. Still hits cannot always pe ex- pected from human beings. The fact is that Chicago deserved to win because the team hit, ran bases, pitched and fielded better than the Ravens. And that should be reason enough. The fielding feature of the game was a magnificent throw ,to the plate by Niles in the eighth, who, after Vinson had singled, caught Rohe, who was try- ing to reach home from third on the hit. The throw was perfectly timed and was a superb effort. WHERE WERE OUR MARO. AND DANIELS? Neither Schwarz Nor the New York Crack Figured in 400-Meter Swim.

Monument Erected Near Scenes of Statesman’s Activity as Diplomat. | PARIS, April 27.—The Franklin cele- bration preceding the unveiling today of the statue of Benjamin Franklin, presented to the city of Paris by John H. Harjes, the American banker, of this city, was held in the Place du Trocadero this afternoon. The statue of Benjamin Franklin is appropriately erected in close proximity to the scenes of his activity during the eventful eight years he spent in France. It stands on the Place du Trocadero, near the point where the Rue Franklin, named in his honor, leads towards the heights of Passy. All about are remind- ers Of Franklin’s sojourn in Passy—here the Place Franklin, further on the Pas- sage Franklin, and on the busy thor- oughfare of Passy the antiquated Hotel Franklin. It was on the Rue Franklin that the villa stood, surrounded by ample gardens, which became so well known as Franklin’s home. The place is marked today by a brass tablet af- fixed to the wail of a tumble-down ed- ifice, lately used as a religious school, but now closed under the law against religious teaching. The tablet reads: “Here stood a villa, dependency of the mansion of Valentinois. Frank- lin occupied it from 1777 to 1785, plac- ing thereon the first lightning rod constructed in France. Historical Society of Auteuil and Passy, March Sth, 1896.’’ Ambassador McCormick’s Address, Robert McCormick, United States Am- bassador to France, who delivered the principal address, said in part: “When my friend and compatriot, Mr. John H. Harjes, esteemed at home and ‘abroad, informed me of his intention to present a statue of Benjamin Franklin to the City of Paris, it seemed to me that the occasion should be seized upon for a-demonstration of that warm friendship which exists between the world’s two great republics and for which Franklin so firmly laid the foundation. The happy coincidence of the approach of the bicentenary of Franklin’s birth opened the way for us to broaden the unveiling ceremonies into the fete which you have been asked to honor with your presence. “The spontaneous and hearty co-oper- ation of the French Government has given to this fete the international character which brings into relief that chapter in Franklin's life which belongs to France as well as to the United States, and which, I trust,. will ever be held dear to the hearts of citizens of both countries. “On the initiation of Frisco's ally, His Majesty, the Emperor of all the Rus- sias, The Hague tribunal was estab- lished that Government might have a Court of Arbitration ready to. their hand for the settlement of such differ- ences as could be submitted to it. But today the voice of public sentiment holds from or impels Governments to action, and thai better acquaintance, that clos- er entente between peoples which such international celebrations as this warm into life or keep alive( makes as never before for the cause of general peace and the well being of mankind.’ The Franco-American aspect of to- day’s celebration is shown in the compo- sition of the committees of honor, in- cluding a former American Preside, Mr. Cleveland, a former American Vice- President, Mr. Morton; two former French Presidents, MM. Loubet and Casimir-Perier, as well as many other prominent public men, French and American. ‘ Like Philadelphia Statue. The statue of Benjamin Franklin, which was unveiled today is a duplicate of the one in front of the Philadelphia Postoffice, which is considered by many critics to be a masterpiece, and the best statue of Franklin ever made. It repre- sents Franklin seated in his favorite arm-chair, comfortably dressing robe. At the side and a lit® to the rear of the chair is a large boor, as if it had just fallen from the hands of the great scientist and diplomat. Franklin's attitude is one of repose, and from the expression of his calm face there seems to shine forth those char- acteristics of love and kKindliness which did so much to endear him to the people to whom he went as the first representa- tive of a new Republic. The statue is nearly twice life size, measuring 12 feet from the base to the top of the head, 5 feet 4 inches in width and 4 feet 8 inches in depth. The sculptor, John J. Boyle of New York, spent two years in the execution of this work.
