The murderer's hat, which was lost when he assaulted Sergt: Fehr with a burglar's “jimmy,” was given the dogs ‘to furnish a scent, but it was covered with blood and was useless for the purpose. Sergt. Fehr was informed by telephone yesterday that a man was trying to sell a ‘bicycle evidently stoler at a pawnshop. Fehr went to the shop and arrested the man. Police Sergeant Slugged. The man drew a burglar’s “jimmy” from his pocket, felled Fehr and fied, taking the officer's revolver. Lederie, seeing the assault, chased the thug up an alley. Cornered, the man turned and shot Lederie dead. : Re-entering the street, the murderer thrust a revolver into William Hawks face, compelled him to . surrender his horse and: buggy, and drove rapidly out of town, standing oft all pursuers with the Sergeant's revolver, Mayor Devereux, hearing of the &f- fair, headed a quickly formed troop of pursuers, but the fugitive has not been apprehended. : This morning a posse of officers still surround the timber land on South Fork River, in which the murderer. is hiding. He was pursued for 20 miles before taking to the timber. There ure conflicting stories as to the possible identity of the murderer, but the authorities have evidence that he is a desperate character, with a long rec- ord of crimes, who is likely to make a fight if cornered. An effort will be made to take him alive if possible, but the officers are armed with rifles, and say they will take no chances. BOY FALLS SEVEN STORIES NEW YORK, July 2.—Jacod Edel-

from its wheels, was dragged forward and began. bumping over the ties. The conductor on the front car ap-}; plied the brakes, but on that steep in- | cline, and with the momentum which the train» had attained, there was no apparent effect. The heavily laden rear car crashed through some of the slender ties, and went over on its side. It seemed that- every occupant would be hurled to in- stant death. Only an tnsecure railing was between the passengers and a dead- ly plunge of 50 feet. Frank Passagna, with his wife and their 14-months-old baby girl, occupied a middle seat directly tn front of Mrs. Pfeifer. Passagna was on the outside, with the car careening his way. Mrs. Pfeifer, realizing that thé car was over- turping, caught hold of Passagna and dragged him by main strength toward her. The added weight righted the car momentarily and allowed it to glide down the precipitous incline until it was only 10 feet above the ground. Here her strength gave way and the car crashed over.on its side, throwing the 12 occupants out. Mas and Girt Pinioned.

As the man whom “Jim” Cronin terms an “angel” entered the gate, the crack was discov- ered and securely cemented, not an- other leak being even rumored during the Sunday show. But a block away, at the Jefferson Club, the mémbers who were not at home nor at the carnical watched Mr. Mulvihill’s figure disappear in the pleasure grounds inclosure and. then the lid flew off at the club. It seemed that all the police in the neighborhood were where the Commissioner wandered and none was left to watch the disap- pearance of sundry decoctions at the club. St. Louls County clubs were wide open and side doors of saloons are said to have been:ajar. In St. Louis, the police say, the day was dry. Few clubs were open, and few arrests were made. The Brewery Workers’ Association Club, at Thirt¥enth street and Chou- teau avenue, was twice raided. Po- licemen Miller and Mitchell, ip citizens’ clothes said he/purchased liquor in the place, and two raids followed, in which six were arrested. e At Frank Girkes’ saloon 1237 North Broadway, the proprietor was arrested after Policeman Wyman and Geahen, who were too fat to crawl through a window, saw him sell beer to a number of customers, they say. They had the place surrounded, and Patrolman Fox climbed in, finding Girkes and his cus- tomers. Policeman Follen says Deputy Rev- enue Officer Madison Judd, who _ lives above his brother’s saloon, at 7807 South Broadway, chased the policeman from the place with a revolver. Judd was ar- rested and charged with interfering with an officer. William «~Vach, 15 years old, is ac- cused of selling a bottle of whisky to Patrolman Painter, who says he made the. purchase at the grocery of the youth's uncle, 1234 Old Manchester road. John J.

Ralph McDermott of 1309 Washington avenue was fined $5 by Judge Pollard Monday for exploding giant torpedoes on Franklin avenue Sunday to the ter- ror of women and the annoyance of the whole neighborhood. Policeman Dolan made the arrest. in compliance with Chief Gillaspy’s com- mand that all who do not postpone their Fourth of July celebrations until the Fourth shall be taken Into custody.

NEED OF FUNDS GREAT New Laws Governing Institu- tion Adopted by New Managers. gt BEATTYVILLE, Ky.” % The management of the Henrietta : RE. Hospital of East St. Louis has been re-' pr ha at organized by the election of a new chief ; Ste, eae of the medical staff, the resignations Of} yyancum oa eae the matron and head nurse of the hos- ae ve ee pital and the placing in charge of an- other matron temporarily. The change Wag made in an effort to place the hos- pital on a self-sustaining basis, by abol- ishing the strict rules heretofore ad- hered to, and the friction which has created dissatisfaction among the East St. Louis physicians for several years. At a meeting of the Board of Man- agers Saturday night a new set of rules and bylaws was adopted. The con- struction of a roof garden on the roof of the hospital for the benefit of con- valescent patients will be considered at thé next meeting. | East St. Louis has two hospitals, the Henrietta being a Protestant institu- tion, and St. Mary’s, a Catholie. Since}: its organization several years ago, the Henrietta has not been self-sustaining. One year ago a mortgage for $3000 was due and the holders demanded payment. Another mortgage of. $10,000 was also outstanding. The treasury was empty. Public-spirited citizens took the mat- ter up and, under the direction of John S. Bratton, a horse show was given at the stockyards, which nette $1600, With other private donations, the $3000 mortgage was paid. In March, 1906, Mr. Bratton was elected president of the Hospital Assoctation and a mem of the Board of Managers. Soon after his élection, the interest on the $10,000 mort- gage became due and there was no money in the treasury to pay it. Paid Interest Themselves. Mr. Bratton and Judge E. C. Kramerij vice-chairman of the Board of Mana- gers, paid the interest themselves, and then began an investigation as to why} the hospital had not been self-sustain- ing. They found, Mr. Bratton says, that out of 66 practicing Protestant phy- sicians in East St. uils,- Only. eight used the hospital and allowed their pa- tients to be cared for there. . A meeting of the physicians was called, to which Mr. Bratton and Judge Kramer were invited. The physicians stated their reason for not using -the hospital, saying that ‘the matron, who had held that position for years, treat- ed them ase intruders, and that the chief of the médica! staff allowed other phy- siclans no professional courtesies. The hospital was run too much on the one- mo me et pian, they said. They also complained that visitors and members of the families of their patients were iven scant courtesy, and were not al- owed to see the patients except at times suiting the convenience of the matron; that the visiting hours were too short and the arbitrary rules too strictly enforced. The physicians also stated that they were, at times, not al- lowed to visit their patients promptly The St. Louis dog is greater than a ' sovereign citizen, in the eyes of the m jaw. - «4 Jt may snarl at the police, lord it over E the City Marshal and his corps and ~~ attack whomsoever it will, for it is “amenable ‘to nobody for its acts. “ All the .St. “Louis dog needs to com- ~ mit whatever crimes it desires is to have @ 1906 license about its neck, snd the powers will bow the knee to it. Phis is the assertion of Chief of Po- 3 a lice Gillaspy and the City Marshal's of- ye fice. They declare themselves helpless : under the opinion rendered a short while ago by City Counselor Bates, who de- er clared the animal private property when eo properly licensed and without the pale of legal jurisdiction. i There has been“an epidemic of dog biting in St. Louis for weeks and the Health Department sought to take pre- ype cautionary measures, especially during the “dog days.” »y instructing the City : Marshal to confiscate all dogs, whether ' . Be licensed or unlicensed, which were not T muzzied. City Marshal Weinbrenner obeyed in- . structions and began to gather in the animals. Several owners immediately took up the matter and laid it before the City Counselor, who declared that - Heensed dogs must not be interfered “i with, unless they are vicious, and the only way to declare a dog vicious is to have it bite somebody. | Chief of Police Gillaspy has tried to et around the law in some manner, but e failed, and now_says the Police De- partment cannot pYotect children and others from dogs’ attacks. ~ A& dog caused terror by growling and snapping at members of a congregation returning from church at Tweifth and Monroe streets Sunday. Patrolman Wardenski was afraid to shoot in the crowd, and beat the dog with his club. The animal fied into a back yard, and the liceman shot it to death. Patrolman George Voellmecke wag at- tacked by two dogs in front of 360 Lin- each of which seized a trousers tog He iaid about him heart- fiy with his stick and drove away the x dog bit Randolph Vogt, 15 years North Ninth street, in the while he was in front of 907 Ben- street. *& etray dog followed George F. Kin- , der into the yard at 1526 Union boule- ; yard, when he went there to deliver meéat, and bit him on the right hand. While playi in the yard at 3717 Sul- livan avénue, Harry Kreamer, 10 years .. old, of 3647 Dodier street, was bitten on =. the right hand by a dog. , Police Can’t Touch Them. ; “The police are powerless to check Pe this epidemic of dog-biting,’’ safd Chief Be pe _Gillaspy Monday to a Post-Dispatch re- - perter. “They can not touch a licensed dog without the owner’s consent, no matter if it has bitten somebody, un- a it shows symptoms of the rabies. ie be frothing at the mouth or other evidences of madness before a policeman can kill or even touch it. “T have had in mind the proposition of declaring an emergency to exist, but find that under the opinion rendered . e the City Counselor I cannot do this _ except in the case of a vicious dog. “and we must wait for the dog to bite

Hence arose great opportunities for speed rivalries. “The train which came to grief was timed through from Devonport to London, 230 miles, in four hours and 20 minutes, with one stop for water at Templecombe. Deducting °10 minutes on this account, this means an average speed of 56% miles an hour, a high but not dangerous rate of speed. “Unfortunately this speed must be very greatly exceeded during portions of the run to allow for necessarily de- creased speed maintained on numerous heavy up-grades which abound on the Southwestern line.

MAYOR AND CHIEF GILLASPY FORBID USE OF FIREWORKS In his proclamation regarding the Fourth of July, Mayor Well® calls attention to the ordinances prohibiting all persons, save members of the police force and members of military companies on actual duty, from discharging firearms. He also says that no person shall set off any rockets or other pyrotechnic exhibition without a written permit from the Mayor, and that no person shall fire any squib or cracker with- out having obtained permission. The Mayor, in his proclamation, states that the municipal bearing on this subject will be rigidly enforced. Acting Chief of Police Gillaspy, in an order to all police captains, calls attention to the laws and commands that they be rigidly enforced. The acting Chief complains about the lax enforcement of previous or- ders bearing on this subject, and orders that the policeman on whose beat violations of these ordinances occur be sent before the Board of Police Commissiéners on charges of neglect of duty.

Then there was an awful crash ang a jumble of noises, the smashing of wood and glass and: the crunching of iron. I went immediately to the second coach, which was lying alongside the station platform. It was impossible to open the door, so I climbed in through a window. en dead, their faces battered out of all recognition. Not a feature was left un- harmed. With some difficulty I rescued one woman from the debris. She cried bitterly and begged me to rescue her mother. At last, to comfort her and get her away I told her her mother was on the platform. ** ‘How do you know that?’ she cried, but finally she left me. ‘Then I turned my attention to a woman entirely buried under the wreckage, save for her face. We tore away the debris and res- cued her. She was little hurt. Alto- gether we took five out of that wreck- age. “What struck me most was the ex- traordinary bravery of the women. There was little screaming to add to the horrors of the situation, but with dogged courage the women endured their terrible sufferings. “TIT helped to carry one poor lady, who had a breken arm and leg and injured back, to the Infirmary. She never ut- tereq a moan, but every few yards said, ‘Put me down, lads; you must be tired.’”’ (3. A. Strachan of 32 Boylston street, Béston, was traveling in a compartment with his aunt, Mra. Whiton of Boston. He ‘said: ‘“‘We expected to burned alive in the wreckage. Then came 4 slight spray of water and we knew that a hose was being played on the over- turned coaches. A few moments ter a rescue party climbed up the side of our coach and sawed a hole big enough to draw us through. But I fear every- one else in our, coach was killed. ‘“T have been accustomed to fast trav- eling in f#the United States on broad- gauge tracks with heavy cars, but I rmly believe this train was running faster than anything I have ever been on. The coaches swayed from side te side to so great a degree that I really feared an accident would happen for some time before it occurred. “Before the accident, while going through a tunnel, we seemed to feel the sides of the train erattas against the walls. I wanted to pull the communice- tion rope, but Mrs. hiton dissuaded

“The first thing I saw was some wom- |

saw his friend, Mr. Sentell, who was badly hurt, being moved. ‘‘He was unable to speak,’ said Mr. Strachan, ‘“‘but he recognized me and put out his hand and we gripped. No words were uttered by either of us. Sentell lost his wife, his son, who was a New York lawyer, and two daughters.’’ Guard Harrison, who had charge of the train, was seen at his home in Wadsworth Common said: “One car- riage was right upon end. We had to cut a hole in the end with hatchets and picks to get the people up ina sling. A young American did yeoman § service. Nobody knew his name or who he was,4 but for hours he worked helping to res- cue to the imprisoned passengers..’” George H. Moseley, son of Alfred Moseley, the elocutionist, 80 well known in America, was a passenger. Young Mr. Mobeley, an undergraduate at Yale University, was going home for the summer holidays. He said at his fath- er’s residence: “There were eight in the compartment I was in and five were killed. The shock wags terrific. I was sitting with my back to the engine. Next to me was Miss Elphicke and beyond in the corner next the window was her moth- er, Mrs. Elphicke, who was killed. I managed, when the train began to sway, to a toward the corridor on the side of the carriage and I pulled Miss Elphicke with me. By that in- stinctive action I believe her life was saved.”’ Among the Americans who decided to stay overnight in Plymouth and thus escaped the disaster were Mr. and Mrs. Homer Folks of New York. They saw their fellow passengers off at Plymouth and the first they heard of the accident was whén traveling to London, They broke their journey at Salisbury to visit the injured. Mr. Folks was formerly Charity Commis- sioner of New York City. Mayor George B. McClellan of New York, who reached London Sunday afternoon, while terribly grieved and horrified by the fate of his fellow pas- sengers, was fervently thankful for his own escape. "Why was I not on the train? Well if we had arrived at Plymouth an hour earlier I should have been 6n it, but as the steamer was late I decided at the last moment to go on to South- ampton rather than have a night jour- ney, bringing me to London in the amall hours of the “gle “Thank God I did 1 It is the luck- lest thing that ever ppened to me.” John C. Van Dyke, one of the pas- sengers who went on to Southamp- ton, tells how Mayor McClellan wie persuaded to do likewise: “peing friends, Mayor McClellan and I had seen a good deal of each other the voyage. When I learn rs. McClellan was = get- ting off at Cher and going to Paris, I tried to persuade Mayor Mc- Clellan not to disembark at Plymouth, but to come on with me to Southamp- on. F , “Mayor McClellan, however, would not Hsten to this. He said he had quite enough sea and was resolved to get on shore at ~~ earliest possible moment. Scveral times after that I: tried to tt pray him. Py. yl only we got to houth and I was to Say by to him that he durin

Plerpont Morgan was waiting in his motor car at the Waterloo Station when the news of the disaster came. Mr. Morgan had gone to the station to take Mayor McClellan to his house in Prin- cess Gate. Mr. Morgan was so upset and excited that he rushed across the platform and shouted to his chauffeur to drive to Salisbury. It was hastily explained to him that Mayor McClelland was safe, and Mr. Morgan therefore returned to Princess Gate. Mr. Morgan had arranged a din- ner for Sunday night for some lof his who were due from the New York, and Mayor McClellan was among the invited guests. Killed Beside His Bride. Mrs. Frederick Henry Cossitt, daugh- ter of Judge Dugro of New York, who was on her honeymoon tour and whose husband was killed, recovered sufficient- ly to come here. She said: ““We-were the only occupants of a carriage, and I was lying on a_ seat with my head on my husband’s knee. Both of us were asleep. Suddenly I found myself in another part of the carriage, which was upside down. I saw my husband fearfully injured. “I insisted on his being dragged out of the window first and then I was pulled out.”” , Mr. Cossitt’s skull was fractured. He ——, soon after being taken toa the hos- pital. Mrs. Cossitt will return to New York next Wednesday. Beyond the severe shock to her system, Mrs. Cossitt was not injured in the slightest degree. She did not receive a single scratch. She is now staying with J. E. Duveen, 37 Park Lane. Straub Case Goes Over. The trial of John C. Straub, charged with the murder of his brother, Charlies, whom he shot to death in Caesar's Cafe, Tuesday night, April 2, probably will not be tried until the Sep- ternber term of the Criminal Court. The case was on the docket in Judge Bish- oOp’s court yesterday and was postponed. One reason was that Straub has no at- torney. Assistant Circut Attorney Jones stated that the case could not be tried before vacation. Straub insists that he is not insane, -but declares he was moved by ‘“‘the spirit’ to kill his broth- er. Mr. Jones said it would be left to the jury to decide whether Straub is in- sane. Had No License, Arrested. Conrad F.

A Coroner's jury decided Monday that Thomas Joyce, who diet June ZS at the City Hospital, was murderec. py ‘arn un- known white man.’ Death resulted from a fracture uf the skul!, tnfiicted by a man whom Joyce fwund in his room at 819 Hickory street. Mrs. Joyce testified tetore Deputy Coroner Lloyd that he man who fought with her husband was a stran- ger whom she had never seen until] a few minutes before the fatal fight. Two other witnesses testified that they had Been the man in the Juyce home on two previous. occasions, and that on each visit Joyce had ejected the visitor. Joyce was foreman for a wrecking concern and had the hiring of men. Mrs. Joyce said that about 6 p.m. June 16 & stranger appeared and said that he was looking for work. She told him that her husband would be home with- in a few minutes and he asked permis- Bion to wait.

The autopsy showed that the skull had beén fractured by the blow from the stalactite, which was an ornamental piece of rock with sharp corners and projections. Mrs, Mary Treffs and Mrs. Tillie Kretz!er, other women who have rooms in the house where the Joyces live, testified that they had seen the man who fought with’ Joyce twice, that he had been there the day before the affray as well as on the afternoon of the fight, two or three hours be- The women § said that Joyce resented the man’s pres- @nce in his home and had driven him out both times.

id HAS A CHANCE TO ,LIVE

Boy With Same Disease From Another Cause Is Re- : covering, | George C. Bracey, aged 14, who came /to St. Louis to live two days ago, is at

|; the Emergency Hospital suffering with tetanus, or lockjaw, as the result of a slight powder burn. Physicians say he has an even chance for his life. Bracey is the stepson of B. C. Peters, who until last Thursday ran a hotel at | Roodhouse, Ill. Ten days ago George, with several of his playmates, took possession of his stepfather’s cellar and they gave a home production of melodrama, en- titled ‘“‘The Aristocratic Tramp.” The great scene of the pnlay was built ‘around a train “hold-up,” and there Was a great display of firearms. Young Bracey was one of the ban- dits, and as a part of the scene was shot at by one of the passengers on the train. The revoiver was so close to his hand when it was discharged that the knuckle of the index finger of his left hand was slightly burned by the pow- der flash from a hRlank cartridge. The wound did not seem serious, and a local physician dressed it. Last Thursday Mr. Peters sold out his hotel business in Roodhouse, and Saturday the family came to St. Louis to live. They went to Moore’s Hotel at Fifteenth and Market streets, while looking for a house. Sunday night the boy complained of severe pains in his neck ang the back of his head. Early Monday he ealled his mother, telling her he could hardly open his mouth. Mrs. Peters dressed herself and start- ed with the boy to the City Dispensary, a dog catcher’s wagon giving them a lift. From there he was taken to the Emergency Hospital. The physicians there amputated the wounded finger at once, and they also put the boy under what they term an eliminative treatment, to drive the poison from the system. In the same ward there is another case of tetanus, which has yielded to this treatment. Herbert Christ, aged 11, who was infected. with tetanus by cut- ting his finger with a piece of glass, is récovering. The Health Department has urged that in all such cases the injured one go immediately to the Dispensary. tT {0 PLEAD OH RACE SUICIDE ——a | Bachelors and Old Maids of Iowa Meet to Oppose Roosevelt.

DES MOINES, Io., July 2.—Bachelors and cold maids of Iowa will hold their first annual State convention in Iowa at Forest City July % for the purpose of placing a State and Congressional ticket in the field for the fall election on a platform opposed to President Roosevelt’s big-family policy. The call has just been issued by Clinton Merrick, who is termed King of the Bachelors. Merrick takes exception to the Roose- velt denunciation of small families and unmarried men, and contends that a man is injuring, the human race by bringing into existence more children than he can properly educate and make into helpful men ang women. He holds that bachelors and old maids should be honored for holding aloof from the common impulse and refraining from populating the world with poor, half- starved weaklings.

For three hougs the infant’s breath came with the greatest effort. For three hours a mother, the widow of a man who took his own life, sat and watched her only child die. She knew there could be but one end. The doctor had given up the patient. The mother sat through the intermin- able hours trying to sooth her offspring. From time to time she knelt on bended knee beside her only baby’s crib and prayed her child might live. “Give him back to me,” she said. “Oh, give him to me He is my only child.”” And.even as she prayed the look of agony on the infant’s face turned to one more peaceful. The struggle was over. The mother took a burning candle from the table and held it before the staring eyes. The eves saw not. And so another one of the city’s poor children was sacrificed—on the altar of poverty.

District Attorney Sullivan today ad- “4 mitted that already some of the sum- -monses had been served and that oth- ers are in the hands of deputy mar- » shals. The job of « tching Standard Oil men ' has proven, .self so difficult all over oe country that Sullivan refuses to ] say what men are wanted as grand jury ; witnesses.

Mrs. Estelle "Marie Farfere, who was shot by her husband, Charles Farfere, when she tried to take their 3-year-old daughter from their home at French Village, told Dr. E. H. Lane Monday that she thinks her husband is insane. She denied that Farfere told her to leave the little girl alone, and says he drew a revolver without saying a word, and shot her. | She is at St. Elizabeth’s Hospital, Belleville, but will recover without an operation, the physicians say. No charge has been preferred against her husband, the officials awaiting the out- come of Mrs. Farfere’s injury. Farfere, in the Belleville Jail, talks! ramblingly, and it is difficult to make sense of his utterances. He was con-| fined for 10 days in 1894 In the observa- | tion ward of the County Hospita, but was released. His sanity wag /ques- tioned then. Mrs. Farfere says he has been acting queerly for a year and was so jealous of their daughter, Marie Rose, that he would not permit her out of his sight. The mother wanted to take the little girl with her, and the 2-week’'s-old baby, who was to be christened Sunday in St. Louis, but Farfere objected to. the child going. When Mrs. Farfere’ got leave, she sturted to take Marie when her husband, without drew a revolver and fired. When arrested Farfere carried two revolvers, four boxes of cartridges and| a knife. The prisoner says he told his wi? three times to stop attempting ‘to take Marie away, and when she persisted -he shot her. He insisted that the child re- main with him in Jail for a few hours, and then she was taken to St. John’s Orphanage at Glen. Addie. He says he wanted to show Mrs. Farfere that he was ‘‘boss.”’ EMBALMER LOSES BODY. Family Required Services of Union Undertaker. After being embalmed by fan under- taker who is said to be rated as “un- fair’’ by labor unions, the body of Hen- ry De Brunner, who committed suicide by drinking carbolic acid, was taken from the undertaker and given to an- other whom the sons of the dead man approved as fulfilling union require- ments. Mrs. De Brunner made the arrange- ments with the first undertaker. When the sons learned who had the body, they immediately demanded that it be turned over to another, whom they named. After some discussion, the first under- taker gave up the body on the payment of $50 for his services. CATHEDRAL IN WEST END. St, George's Paris o~ nish a Site.” A call has been issued for mem- bers of St. George's Episcopal Church, Pendleton avenue and Olfvye street, to meet next Monday to consider the ad- visability of consolidating that parish with Christ Church Cathedral Parish. It is said that Bishop Tuttle favors the consolidation. The plan was suggested at a formal meeting of the vestrymen of St..George's Church. It is planned to make S8t. | George’s a West End chapel of the cath- edral, with the rector, R@v. Dr.° Robert A. Holland, as rector. There is some talk, however, of a West End cathedral.

HIS SERMON ON LIBERTY

——— Weakness of Man Responsible for Business Evils,.He Sets Forth,

TRIBUTE TO MR. BRYAN

Much Like Roosevelt, He Says —Socialism »More and More a Factor.

Kev. B.. PB Fullertc@ pastor of the Lucas Avenue Presbyterian Church, in a patriotic sermon on “Liberty,” Sun- day, declared that the trusts of today were violating the same principles which the British Government violated, causing the war of the Revolution. He declared that American liberty is in jeopardy today the same ag in 1776 and before that. “When Mr. Otis declared that ‘‘tax- ation without representation is tyran- ny,’ he propounded a principle which lies very deep in the heart of the American people,” said Dr. Fullerton. “And I question serioyfly whether that very principle is not 4n danger today. When a trust gets control of the entire supply of a commodity and says to the consumer, ‘You must buy of me and at my price or you cannot bufy at all,’ it is taxing us as Great Britain taxed the colonies without giving them a voice, It is also using the same words of Great Britain usel when it told the col- ‘You must buy in or you cannot buy at all.’ “We are reading every day of the Coal the Oil Trust, the Ice Trust, the and the Labor Trust. Every onies, soared this summer and every consumer knows how helpless he is, whether it be from a trust or some other reason. “IT believe there is but one reason for this condition. Manis a corrupt insti- tution. There would be no improvement in the Coal Trust if the operator and the miner should exchange places. The miner. as operator, would soon be do- line just what the operator does now. out against the Ice Trust reason to, but everyone of us in the ice dealer's place would do what the iceman does. It-jis be- cause man is a weak being. “Take politics as a further example. Putting one set of men out and an- other in does no good. We hear the Republicans in the State cry out against the corrupt. Democratic ad- ministrations and say, ‘Give us a chance.’ But they would be no bet- ter. In St. Louis there was once a Republican administration, and it was woefully corrupt. The Democrats said, ‘Give us. a chance.’ They have had it and they are not a bit better. “Although it is the weakness of the in general that causes this con- we at the same time see the calling for a man to govern The other day the pastor of a “Wa cry public them. ® bie church in Ohio declared that ‘only death or Roosevelt could stop Bryan from being elected President.’ His great congregation arose and cheered him. This shows the great. tribute which the public, regardless of party, pays to an honest man. ‘Mr. Bryan, I believe, comes nearer to President Roosevelt in character and his policies than any other public man. Both are men. Both stand for honest manhood. “Now we must recognize Socialism as a growing force in the life of America. I believe it a great misfortune that this is so, but it is, nevertheless. The rem- edy of Socialism for the trust evil and other economic evils is in brief, thus: Give us better social conditions and we will be better men and women, Let us do as we desire and we will improve. “Contrast with this the doctrine of Christ. It is that men and women must be made better first and then: social conditions will improve. It is through Christ and his teachings that men will improve and the improved conditions will follow. The improved social and economic conditions are the result, not the cause, of improvement. Socialism tries to hold them up as the cause.’’ Dr. Fullerton was recently chosen field secretary for home missicns of the combined Presby terjan churches.

St. WLouls Day is aavocated by Rev. Father D. 8. Phelan. editor of the Western Watch- man, in the latest edition of that paper. He urges that Aug. 25, which is observed yearly by the Catholic Church as the feast of St. Louis, be set apart as.a civic and church holiday, and that re- ligious and civil exercises be held. Father Phelan suggests that elaborate services be held on this day in the Cathedral, that each parish have its banner there and be represented by a delegation. that every Catholic wear a badge of St. Louis and that city officials be invited to participate.

[SPIRO & SINGER | OVED TO Near live St. the’ mother} - TRICK CYCLIS MISSED NET AND FELL INTO MUD One-Legged Performer’s Life Is Saved Through Softness of the Ground.

Mud proved to be the saving element that kept Francis Conley from death at Alton Sunday afternoon, and kept sev- eral thousand park visitors from seeing a terrible tragedy as an ending to a day of'pleasure seeking. Conley is a one-legged trick cyciist, 23 years old, and has been performing at the Washington Garden in Alton. His act is to ride a bicycle down a ladder placed at a sharp angie and then, carried by the momentum up another shorter ladder, he dashes off the end of it, and allowing his wheel.to drop to the ground, he dives 20 feet through the air into a net. The ladder down which he rides is 100 feet long and the second one is 20 feet in length. When the time came for Conley’s per- rormance Sunday there were at least 7000 persons present to see his dash and dive through the air. Conley and his wheel were hoisted to the top of the long ladder, and an attendant assisted to place him on the wheel In the proper position for the rush down, As the thousands of spectators stood with thelr eyes upturned to the daring rider, an- other attendant at the net tightened the ropes and made all fast to receive the cyclist when he made his leap through the air. “Are you atl ready?” called out the man at the net. “All ready.’ returned Conley. “Then go!"" and the wheel was re- leased and dashed down the first ladder. Mile a Minunte Speed, The cyclist shot down at a speed of a mile a minute and few up the other lad- der at the bottom of the incline. At the the air. Then came the disaster. Through some miscalculation he fell short of the net by at least five feet and came with a crash to the ground, landing on his back. Women screamed and several fainted, and a rush was made to the spot where Conley was lying. No one expected to find him alive, but the spot where he had fallen’ was marshy and the soft mud saved hfm. He was taken to St. Joseph’s Hospital in Alton and the doctors report that none of his bones is broken. If there are no internal injuries, they say he can be making his dive again in a few days.

OPPORTUNITY A AND ASSETS. ae tte an interview published in Chicago, Gov. Cum- 4; mins of Iowa declares himself the determined foe ot ,, Mil corporations which organize or consolidate other _ gy @0rporations for the purposes of monopoly. He says _-vdthat they are enemies of good government and that ~~ it is the duty of government to destroy them and to prevent all corporations from capitalizing their op- _ portunities instead yof their actual assets. This sounds heroic, but when Gov. Cummins has - oSadvanced thus far as a protectionist, he is in the és finn of the Dingley bill, behind which all these - «Monopolies are intrenched. After a single glance in that direction, he turns away with the conclusion that though it may need some readjustment per- ‘haps in the future, it is not an issue in Iowa this year. ._. The “opportunities” which are capitalized instead _ f assets by the monopolies he thinks he is opposing, *are Dingley bill opportunities, the opportunities of ,£ombining and controlling the markets of the United ‘States while the Federal Government is using its ~ Custom House police to shut out competition. Gov, Cummins proposes to reduce the capitaliza- » tion of every corporation in the United States to its | actual assets. He declares that the trusts’ system ; of capitalizing “earning power,’ which now means , the opportunity to extort the highest possible prices in a closed market, must be abolished by govern- ment. . If he will consult the stock lists for 1906 he will find such items as “United States Steel, $508,302,000; United States Steel preferred, $360,281,000; United Btates Steel bonds outstanding, $571,791,000.” ‘This | total of $1,440,000,000 as a single item, capitalizes | every family in the present population of the United at States at about $80 as representing that value in _ “epportunity” for trust profits. Mr, Cummins is in- : clined to grow fierce when he considers such things, | but if he means anything at all by his indignation, ‘it must bring him at last to the point. _% £The opportunity he says as thus capitalized in- 4B stead of the actual assets, can exist only as oppor- end created by “protection” for monopoly which, the metal schedules.of the Dingley bill runs to 70 cents on the dollar of value and above it. While this opportunity is made a trust “asset” by law, why should not the trusts capitalize it? How else can they caleulate dividends or pro-rate the ¥ Dingley tax on the head of population so that they ean collect it from 80,000,000 people for their own ury? ‘Gov. Cummins shows a tendency to grow fluent at | mes in his indignation against monopoly methods Wy Toe capitalizing opportunitics instead of assets. He : (pught to continue fluent until he has explained just V how this opportunity comes and how trusts come to _ consider it the most valuable of all their assets. = = _ en ie 4

The man who has no money and no friends is in } pad case when he gets into trouble. This truth is Old as Adam. "Are the trusts in this dismal situation? They have no friends and the movey they possess is just that much evidence of wickedness. From the four quarters of the nation come stirring } stories of the great trust hunt.

Everywhere the trusts are on defensive, or rather, on the run. ~ , _ But yesterday they might have stood against the = rid ; now none so poor to do them reverence. _ @ What has transmogrified conditions?

rr iT HREATENING A PRACTICAL JOKE. Spnad not very wise people having said that “the | jon expressed in England over the tinned teeat scandsla is a sign of the inherent hostility of | he ah to the American people,” the London pect ste that America never had more | and that the indignation is di- i against “the selfish clement in American com- en ae Spectator addressés this warning to : “It is obviously the interest of those po are implicated in the an ree, or who are id monopai gen co tan pebts aPtontion away trom _ Every offort will, we may be sure, be ay the ast and ot ever serupstous inen who blic feos to divert attention policy’ of the Russian bureaucracy in stirring up trouble over yonder when the trouble at home grows dangerous has often been remarked. And it is not improbable that the jaunty eagerness with which the British Government dragged the nation into the South African war, for which they were scandalously unprepared, may be aceounted for in this way. What more natural than that the trust magnates should try to escape the wrath of the American peo- ple by calling attention to some wicked fellows on the other side of the earth who are about to insult our patriotism and extinguish our prosperity, The human pack is easily sent off on a false scent. It would be a comic interlude in political develop- ment if such a diversion should take place. But the consequences would be tragic for those guilty of the jest. The American people can all be fooled a part of the time. When the awakening comes the per- petrators of the practical joke discover that the best fun is not enjoyed by the first laughers. a, Le The cause of the shocking railroad disaster to the American Line Express on the Southwestern Rail- way in England seems to be summed up in the statement that the train, drawn by a light: engine, was running at excessive speed on a dangerous curve. The killing of the driver and firemen cuts off the possibility of direct testimcny from the meh in control of the locomotive, ‘but the facts will.proba- bly be ascertained in the investigation to. follow. The fact that the passengers were all from this side of the ocean gives an international importance to the accident and the English authorities will probably exert themselves to clear up the causes of the dis- aster and to hold those responsible to strict ac- count. Speed competition with reckless disregard for safety conditions is probably the primary cause of the accident. Americans are debarred from the severest condemnation and reproach of the railway management by the fact that we have had several accidents from similar causes. The shocking ¢onse- quences of this disaster to American passengers on an English railway should be a warning lesson to railway managements on both sides of the ocean. ooo THE ROOTS OF BOSSISM. It may or may not be accurately true as reported that collecting agents of the Jefferson Club are now offering to compromise with members of the police force.on payment of $3 each in full of past “dues.” It is true, accurately and exacthy, that anyone in the Police Departinent caught attempting to force such payments for political purposes, should be “fired out,” and fired at once. It is also true, accurately, nently, that any policeman who insists on belonging to a club, organized to control, to govern, to “boss” the town, should be “fired out”—at once and finally. He may be fit for politics, but as soon as he begins attempting to use the police power instrusted to him to protect the community, that the community may be controlled politicaily in spite of itself, he is no longer fit for a policeman, For years in St. Louis, one boss, with the police force on his side, amounted to a majority. It is time to stop it. The roots of bossism are in sight at last. Strike at the roots. Under the prod of the Post-Dispatch the board has set itself so far right that Maj. Lally, who tried to force patrolmen to pay their political assessments to the Jefferson Club, resigned. The rest must follow. —_____--- year’s celebration of the Fourth of July, six more were made totally blind than in former years, 45 more lost one eye, 19 more lost an arm, leg or hand, and 13 more Jost one or more fingers. General casualties were 1000 in excess of the two previous years. Fatalities, 182; in 1904, 183; in 1903, 466. Now for 1906.

From today’s Globe-Democrat Since the recent verdict against the Post-Dis- patch at Columbia, there has been a chorus of ex- ultation in the few Democratic newspapers of Misour! still wearing the collar of the old Bour- bon machine. There has been no reference to the testimony tn the case and no effort at discus- sion of the law; but @nly a shrill whoop that slander has been rebuked, and that the mendacious metropolitan press is gctting its dues Such feeble opinions affect nothing. The day of the yawper is gone in Missouri. Hogwash afd hellfire have ceased to entertain, much less instruct, the electo. rate More wit and less wind are demanded by the people in the discussion of public affairs, ana deliverances holding neither argument, sarcasm nor invective, and nothing above frothy asser- tion and slinging of epithet, are out of date. The last general election indicated this fn the fact that the candidate of the Democratic state ticket for whom the most spittle was thrown and the niost venom secreted by the Uttle hand organs ran many thousand yotes behind the rest of his ticket The fact is illuminating. In its great light it is possible to read between the lines of the verdicts of juries It is not, therfore, in any resentment, or any fear of a profound influence upon public opinion by the little machine papers, that we make this reference to their prevailing toné since the decis- ion at Columbia declaring that an appointing off- cer is not responsible for his subordinates, ang that a head of a bank inspection department of a State Government who permits his Inspectors to promote his renomination to the neglect of their official duty is not guilty of gross negligence All of these’ little papers come out of their holes to- gether on the mechanical principle of the little birds in the German clocks, and cry “cuckoo” to- gether in such loud and clear chorus that we are not only convinced they are all cuckoos, but that their beautifully harmonious movement ‘regulated by a machine behind them.

Marshall and Brown, the men for whom McCloskey would trade Shay, are worth while, Marshall can_ hit and field and catch and play first base. Brown is a very good player, though not a heavy hitter. He can field and he can run bases. | Supporters of the Cardinals, than whom there are not any more rabidly loyal people, hold that it is all right to trade Taylor, but that it is men, not money, McCloskey wants. They hold that if there are men who can be bought, he can get the money without selling Taylor, and that when Taylor goes several real good men should come. It is quite certain that the sale of Taylor for cold cash will provoke some hostility: among the Cardinal followers. ‘'For,” they say, “if there are players to be bought, why cannot McCloskey go buy them without selling Taylor to get the money?

Hoey will take his place in left field, Egan pitched good ball in the sec- ond game of the double-header at League Park Sunday afternoon, The Slender twirler had a curve a foot wide, and he made some of those heavy hitters on the Pirates iook foolish. When Egan fanned Wagner in the third inning the spectdtors ac- corded to him their roaring approval. It seems that the Cardinals have picked up a promising youngster in Burch, He handles his bat neatly and is extremely fast on the bases. Bight times at bat Sunday, Burch rapped out-four hits and scored two runs. He has dash and nerve on the bases, As a flelder Burch is in the formative stage. He has the necessary speed to enable him to get under long drives. However, he does not show any too much natural ability as a fly-chaser. He has a splendid arm, a good asset for a fielder, and with a little experi- ence the chances are that he will de- velop into a very clever player. Beaumont of Pittsburg is one of the most graceful, as well as consistent, hitters in the National League. McCarthy stung the ball nice and hard Sunday. In the second game the husky backstop rapped out a hard sin- gle. In the seventh inning Ritchey robbed McCarthy of a hit when he grabbed Mack’s terrific clout with his gloved hand. Bennett continues to be ae timely hitter. His rap in the opening inning of the second game scored Burch with Ahe first run of the contest. Sheehan’s home run in the opening game was a terrific rap down to the fence in extreme left field. McCarthy displayed his ability to wing baserunners when he threw the fast Sheehan out by ten feet when the for- mer Tacoma man tried to steal second in the eighth inning. BASEBALL EPITOME.

CARDINALS BREAK EVEN WITH PIRATES The Cardinals held the Pirates to an even break in a rattling good double- header at League Park Sunday. Pitts- burg, through overwhelming hitting, won the opener 6 to 1, while the Car- dinals came back in the second and won, 3 to 1. Taylor pitched the opening game for the Cardinals, and the heavy hitters from Smoketown got busy with his de- livery and straightened out his curves for 13 hits. The Cardinals batted some themselves in the openin contest, rappin the Goshen schoolmaster, Leever, Tos 2 hits. Still, Leever held the Cardinals safe in the pinches. Egan's excellent pitching in the sec- ond game won for the locals. Wish was there with the wide curve and had the heavy hitters faded. Pittsburg managed to touch the slender twirler for eight hits, but the Wyandotte chicken kept the raps so well scattered that he would have scored a shut out but for Ritchie’ ; home run in the seventh ifining. Ritch- ey’s terrific rap did not at all disturb Egan’s equilibrium and he followed the mishap by blanking the Pirates in the eighth and ninth innings. ~»

Stephens filed his complaint against Fitzporter at the last meeting of the Board of Governors of the A. A. U. Friday night. It is not probable that the charges will be given consideration, as the M.

ANON DEFEATS CHARLIE SCULLIN Kansas City Plaper Was Sure and Steady—Local Boy Erratic. Orrie Vernon of Kansas City defeat- ed Charles Scullin in the inaugural round of Monday morning's play in singles in the State tennis tournament at the Triple A courts at Forest Park. Veron was very steady and effective while young Scullin showed lack of pracsion, Some of his shots were bril- lant and evoked applause, but his tendency to drive the ball out lost him the match. At the donclusion of the Scullin-Ver- non match M. Semple and M. D. MacDonald, opposing O. L. James and H. Jones, started play in the doubles. Considerable interest was attached to the result of the F. H. Montgomery— . James match of the scheduled for the afternoon.

McCarthy appears to be a bit weak on foul flies. He allowed Phillipe’s foul, only a few feet back of the piate, to drop safe. As McCarthy seems to be a natural batter, is a good thrower and a fair receiver, it behooves him to im- prove himself on taking flies.

BAVENS COULD NOT GET THEM SA Though They Hit Siever Hard They Could Not Get Ball Past the Fielders. Howell's inability to keep the Detroit players from hitting at the psychological moment and Siever’s good fortuné in achieving what Howell was unable to do was responsible for the defeat of the Ravens by Detroit at Sportsman’s Park, 3—2, Sunday afternoon. Siever was hit much harder than How- ell, but not at all as opportunely. The score shows 10 hits for St. Louis, eight for Detroit. Really, St. Louis should have had 20 hits. Spencer alone smashed two at the pitcher and one at the short- stop that would have been ‘base hits had they been a foot either way and not direct at flelders. Upon each oc- casion two runs would have scored had the hit carried. This would have made the score 8 to 3. Niles, Hartzell and Stone also met the ball fairly when hits meant runs, but could not get it anywhere but at a fielder, so that he could not dodge it. So, In tris regard, at least, the Ravens were unfortunate. Upon the other hand there were some Dad 0ball Eas. A muff by Hemphill in the rst. inning. foHowed by a double by Crawford, let in the first run for Detroit. To be sure, Cobb re- turned the compliment by giving St. Louis a run when he muffed Wallace's fiy in the third. Hemphill also helped Detroit to her two runs by stupid throwing. He tried to catch going home when he did not have a chance on earth. O'Leary took second on the throw and came home a moment later with the winning run.

—_ Pennsylvania and Reading Are Subjected to Very Se- vere Pressure, Special] to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK. July 2.--Prices showed im- provement at the opening of the market to day. Trading was active and the stec] se- curities showed a better tone. Market sentiment over the Sabbath showed little change and opmion on ihe future out- kK values remains budiy mixed, ‘The universally bearish and traders sontracts from both locally and abroad show iJitt The Day’s Market, A fight for the control of the market was inaugurated in the second bour when a drive against Pennsylvania sent it tumbling to a new low record at 124, and the lowest price since 1904, when the stock sold at 111%. Reading, its controlled property, was also the subject of, a vicious attack. and dropped be- low 119 from above 121. ‘Lhe Steels and Cvup- rs sympatnized somewhat in the movement, bub support was apparent in these issues at the time and the market turned upward, ‘The recovery ran well above change. Saturday's closing and the room sentiment improved slightly. ihe general list “presents a rather sold-out appeat- ance and the loan crowd shows a very exten- sive short interest still outstanding. This would seem to indicate that a sharp rally is long past due. The general news of the day was unimportant. Call money loaned at 6 per cent. owing.to the July dividend payments, which will not find their way back into natural ehanvels for some days to come, The bank statement of Saturday showed strengthened position of the local institutions, and the fact that sterling exchange is still at the gold im- port point seems to indicate a continuation the import movement during the week. All in all the monetary outlook shows distinct jm- provement, and it is highly probable that hanking interests now have the situation well in hand to provide funds for the fall crop movement. The attack on the corporations ef the country are now being brought forward as the direct cause of the recent ecline, and unless a halt is shortly called in the Govern- ment’s aggressive policy, investment holders the country over will become uneasy over the future of their stock holdings in the big cor- porations. The adjournment of Congress with- out having any beneficial effect on securities was a distinct disappointment to the bull in- terests, who are now looking forward to the publication of the Government crop report next week to show an improvement in crop conditions and ‘y about some improvement in the outside speculative and investment de- mand.
