OLD MAN ENDS LIE, ACCUSED BY HIS Ni La. wr Joseph Nickels, Alton Grocer, Shoots Himself While Wife Sleeps.

WORRIED BY CHARGES

Mrs. Nickels Declares Her Faith in Husband Despite Accusations, GIRL LEFT HIS HOME Said He Had Forced Her Into Improper Relations With Him,

Joseph Nickels, an Alton grocer, was found dead in the cellar under his g&To- cery store at 6 a. m. Thursday by his wife. He had shot himself with a re- volver, which was found by his side. He was 65 years old, and his wife, aged 61, believes that, he ended his life to convince her that an accusation made against him by her 16-year-old niece was untrue. Mrs. Nickels says that she did not need this proof of her husband's faithfulness, and that she has never for one moment doubted him, in spite of the assertions of her niece. Nickels has conducted a grocery store in Yager Park, Alton, for many years. He and his wife lived in rooms over the Store and they were prosperous and contented. Last October they sent to Canada for Mrs. Nickels’ niece, Clara Evarts, and she came to Alton and made her home with the aunt and uncle. Clara, according to Mrs. Nickels, was wishes of Mr. and Mos. Nickels and at times stayed away all night. Girl Left Aunt’s Home. Sunday evening the girl asked permis- sion to go to church. She was told she could go if she would be back by 9 o'clock. She promised and went away, but she did not return that night nor Tuesday. Wednesday a telephone més- sage told Mr. Nickels that the girl was with her brother, William, on Selle street, Alton. Wednesday evening, Clara, her brother and Harry Robinson went to the Nickels home and demanded the girl’s clothing. Mrs. Nickels says she argued with the girl about her course and begged her to remain at her home. The girl was obdurate and deciared that she was going elsewhere to live. ‘Very well,”’ said Mrs. you are determined to go, you may go. But I wili not heln you in any way. You will have to pack your clothes yourself. I think you had better stay here and while I will not interfere with your going I will not aid you,”’ Then the uncle used his persuasive powers in an effort to induce the girl to change her mind. The girl lost her temper and, turning on Mr. Nickels, ac- cused him of forcing her into improper relations with him. The accusation staggered him and made him turn to his wife and say: “That is not true! it, do you?” “No, I do. not believe ‘,”° said. “I know it is n& true.” “Tt is true,’ the girl vehemently de- clared, ‘‘and that is the reason he does not want me to leave and that is the reason I am going.’ Uncle and aunt turned away together and the girl packed her clothing and departed. The wife assured her hus- band that she had faith in him but he worried, All night he tossed on his bed and at 3 a. m. he arose and dressed. When his wife asked him where he was going he sald that it was too hot to sleep and that he would sit on the porch for a time. Mrs Nickels went to sleep again. At 6 o'clock she arose and was Surprised to find that her husband had not returned. She did not think that she would open the store so early 80 she went down stairs to investigate. She found her husband siting on the step of the cellar behind the store with his head between his knees. He was dead and the pistol with which he had killed himself lay beside him. The weapon had been held so close that his® clothing had been set on fire. He had left no note or word of farewell.

DECISION ON THURSDAY

Rooming-House Keeper Testi- fies Hartje Paid the Rent of Josephine Wright. PITTSBURG, Pa., Aug. 2.—After twenty-one and a half days of actual ccurt sessions the Hartje divorce case terminated rather suddenly today. Skill- fully the attorneys for both sides fenced for advantage of the argument, but with the consent of the attorneys and at the suggestion of Judge Robert 8. Frazer they were set for next Monday morning. ; Judge Frazer announced before the that the case must be submitted Wednesday evening as he for his vacation next close to him by intended to leave Thursday. Immediately after the case was con- cluded Mrs. Hartje was surrounded by a group of friends who shook her hand and congratulated her on the manner in which she held up under the severe strain. Augustus Hartje sat in his chair watching his wife closely. He, t@o, showed relief, but said nothing. ‘Ine attorneys for both Mr. and Mrs. Hartje expressed themselves as entirely satis- fled with the case as it now stands and each side is confident that ‘the decision of the Court will be in its favor. Alma Ross, “the mysterious blond,” who kept a rooming house in this city, swore on the stand in the Hartje divorce case yes- terday that Augustus Hartje and Jo- sephine Wright frequently met at the Ross woman's house, that the Wright woman brought him there and intro- duced him. and ealid that the house at which she had been living was too pub- lic. and too close to the Hartjie ware- house. The Ross Josephine Wright's room after. Hartje. woman said Hartje patd rent there- several days ago, swore that he did not know Josephine Wright, and never visited her. The Wright woman swore that she did aot know Hartje. This was when Hartje’s atterneys were introducing evidence in rebuttal.

Inexplicable Error in Instru- « ment May Result in Pro- teremere SHOOTS SELF Ih oy tout wr reser ve] PARK AT DAYBREAK Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Aug. 2.—Three strokes of a scrivener’s pen may tie up the es- tate of Russell Sage in so many years of litigation that the principal bene- ficiary and the executors, who are to receive $800,000 and $1,000,000 each, will | be dead and buried before the final set- ' tlement. In the clause to which the testator at- tached his signature there is an erasure on a date and another date substituted. That the scrivener’s carelessness in framing a testament disposing of an estate valugd at $100,000,000 will give an additional peg on which to hang a con- test is beyond any question in the opinion of lawyers competent to pass judgment.

After being told. of this [ got out of bed, loaded a revolver and took my shotgun and went to the back door. I saw Martha going to his home When he saw me he came back into our yard and pointed the gun at me and abused me. It went so far that [ was finally forced to shoot him l hated to do it, but could not: help it.” Martha was able to walk to his home oefore he fell. 2 Parnell has a reputation as an honest industrious man, and has lived in Jop- lin about eight years.

Wood Recently Was Accused of “Traveling Circuitously to Boost Mileage.

Svecial to the Post-Dispatch. EAVENWORTH, Kan, Aug. 2.—The Leavenworth Times publishes a lengthy edif6ria! in which charges are made against Major-General Leonard Wood, commanding the division of the Philip- pines. The newspaper declares that its information is based upon unmistak- able authority at the hands of officers of the army and others recently re- turned from the Philippines, and to a correspondent the statement was made last night that the proper steps would be taken soon to have the matter re- ferred to the Secretary of War. The Times says: “A recently re- turned army officér from the Philip- pines declared the administration in Moroland is rotten. The force and ef- fect of the, presence of our soldiery is annulled a counteracted Hy the ar- bitrary acts of Gen. Wood. There _ Ought to be an authoritative investiga- tion of the conditions there, he declared, adding that such inquiry would reveal an appalling state of discrimination, in- capacity and graft. “Tt will be recalled that while le was in authority in Cuba, it was a matter of common report that Wood received a jarge salary from civil funds‘in ad- dition to his pay. In the\same way he received a larxe civil sala as Gover- nor of the Moro province, both in vio- - Jation of the provisions of the revised statutes of the United States."’ Other Charges. Other charges made, are that Gen. ' Wood accepts wine and liquor from Baloon keepers in Manila and. places '* himself under obligations, so that he recently rendered an illegal decision “against the canteens and for the li- quor men; that Wood allowed them to gel] malt extract to the canteens, Buaranteeing it non-alcoholic, until orders*came from Washington ¢com- ' mandingg the discontinuance of this license, and that then Gen. Wood made the soldiers’ canteens pay for ' all they had ordered and not received, . refusing, however, to permit its * further sale. “ Recently against Gen. Wood that he added to Mg pay by charging excessive mile- ¢ while returning from the Philip- nes to the United States. Instead f taking a direct route’ he sailed by circuitous one, which added several 10ousand miles to his allowance. [0 CHARGES FILED

The body of Mrs. Gatsie Woods, who was shot and killed by her husband in Mobile, Ala., Tuesday night, will reach St. Louis Thursday evening. The fu- néral services will be conducted from the home of her father, Elmo B. Sim- mons, at 1325 South Sixth street. ms After shooting hig wife, who was visit- ing her sister in Mobile, Woods left the house and remained in hiding — until Wednesday, when he was captured. He and his wife had been separated for sev- eral months and the shooting followed the husband's unsuccessful attempt to effect a reconciliation, he having fol- lowed his wife from St. Louis for that purpose. After his arrest Woods was taken to the Mobile Jail where he became ex- tremely sick. The prison doctor worked over him for some time and Woods was soon out of danger. He admitted that he had taken paris green. Woods refused to explain the motive for the murder except to speak of fam- ily troubles and to say that his father- in-law and mother-in-law were to blame for his wife’s refusal to live with him. TAGGART AFT NEW MONTE CARLO Plans Palatial Resort in Colo- rado Along West Baden Lines. Special to the Post-Dispatch. DENVER, Colo... Aug. Thomas Taggart of the Democratic Na- tional Committee is to have a new West Baden Monte Carlo, and it is to be lo- cated in Grand County, in the beautiful Middle Park, the waters of whose streams flow into the Pacific. It will be on the line of the new Moffatt Scenic road, 120 miles west of Denver. An Eastern syndicate, acting for Taggart, has taken an option on the hot sulphur springs which give’ the Grand County seat its nanre, the price being $200,000. When the deal is closed the syndicate will expend another $200,- 000 in building hotels and improving the springs. The low-roofed bath houses now in-use will be torn down and will be replaced by a handsome structure. These hot sulphur springs were ac- quired in the sixties by Wm. N. Byers, a Denver pioneer editar, at nominal cost, and are now owned by his son, Frank. They have long been famous for their high medicinal qualities and were the favorite resort of Indians who oceupied this region before the whites came. Over 1000 acres of land is owned there by Byers, but it is not certain that all of it will be bought by Taggart. HITCHCOCK DETAINED. Own Convention Keeps Him From Bryan Reception.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Aug. 2.—After grinding out his favorite hymns, ‘‘Rock of Ages” and ‘‘Jesus, Lover of My Souil,”’ perhaps a million times, blind Melcher Wideman, believed to be the richest organ grinder in the United States, is dead. > years he played at the entrance to Glen Island. It is belleved he col- lected $50,000 to $75,000 from the excur- Sionists. The music was so doleful that several times John H. Starin, owner of Glen Island, tried to force him tg dhange his ‘“‘stand,”’ but Wideman had a iicense from the city of New Rochelle and he was on city property. When Glen Island was closed he met the trains at the New Haven Railroad Station in New Rochelle. Many com- muters begged Wideman to put in a few rolls of ragtime, but he refused, saying the hymn tunes aroused more sympathy for him. Wideman was 76 years old, and lost his sight in a railroad accident. In late years he was helped by his wife, who carried a tin cup for the money. Two years ago she died. When Glen Island was closed his heart was broken. Rich as he was, he feared that he would go to the Foorhouse. He had no relatives.

4 Friends of Cummins Declare Triumph Makes Him Presi- dential Candidate in 1908. a | 2—The Re- publican State Convention yesterday evening nominated Albert B., Cummins for Governor, adopted a platform plank favoring tariff revision and hissed the name of Leslie M.

Probably Undertake Work of Education. BY ROSE MARION. Accounts of the awful rites of the Holy Rollers has so horrified Mrs. Ber- tha Von Porten, 4549 Kennerly ave- nue, and a number of quiet, home-loving women friends of hers state they have decided to send one of their number to visit the strange sect and endeavor to teach its members Christianity. : Picture to yourself if your imagination has the strength a meeting of the Holy Rollers, where men and women shout frenziedly, draw themselves into con- tortions and then roll about the floor as if they were wild beasts or humans possessed of demons. Intensify the picture by giving it as a companion one in which the Holy Rol- lers are offering a sacrifice. See a great fire surrounded by women and children who hold loved things in their hands and cast them forth into the flames as they are moved by the words of a leader. See, also, mistily, however, the same flames blazing as if they raited for more and think of the little children that are to be their human fuel if the press dispatches from the West cor- rectly forecast the future intentions of this curious sect. If vour own faney let that which I! shall serve as an antidote. A More Pleasant Picture. Monday afternoon in a_ flower-sur- } rounded, one-story cottage on Kennerly avenue.

A man enters. He is Herr Von Por- ten, home from his day’s work. He has a newspaper in his hand. The women demand the news of the day. Herr Von Porten re plies that he will read that which has impressed him most. The women sit quietly in their places while he translates into German an account of the doings of the Holy Rollers. : Herr Von Porten is of French blood. His surname is merely that of his fos- ter parents and although he served voluntarily for years in the German army and has lived a great deal in Ger- many, he has the dramatic ability of the French and he gives added life to the words in the newspaper column. The women’s faces show feeling as he progresses. They seem unable to un- derstand how anyone in this age can believe the faith taught by John Cref- field—a faith crowded with orgies and fanaticism and said to be particularly fatal to women. Women Are Shockéd. When the reader reaches the phrases that tell of the possible sacrificing of children the women can remain quiet no longer. Several of them rise places and interrupt Herr Von with questions. “Why does the these things?” “What is the ple; are they “Have they never heard of Christ that they can pettere the stories made up by Creffield ?’’ ‘Is there no Way ~ Save them?” ‘‘Kinder’’ Is a word dear to the heart of German women. These think of the. love they bear their own children and their horror increases. “Something must be done,” “tell us what to do, Herr ten.”’ Hlerr von Porten replies: must know as much ag possible about these people. You must know where they live and what influences them.”’ “But how can we leam these things?’ is the next question he is asked. They Look to Hostess, “By making inquiries of the papers. Write to the Post-Dispatch and _ the other papers and tell them that you as women want to know more about the ‘Holy Rollers,’ In the hope that that knowledge may show you how to help them,’ is the reply of Herr von Por- ten.

They learned also of the way in which Esther Mitch- ell regarded her brother's death—as if she had done a righteous thing—and they felt that action was necessary. In speaking of the matter Mrs. Porten lays greatest stress upon fact the Holy Rollers are said to be- lieve in sacrificing children and it is this that she and her associates wish to stop. The fact that she will be unable to speak to them in English does not deter her in her desire to go to them if her friends think it necessary for her to do so. She and they rely upon a way be- ing opened so that the Holy Rollers may be turned back to right living. Her husband is willing that she should go if the needs of the case demand it, although he declares, She is all I have in the world.’ The time of the departure of the mis- sionary that will be sent has not been set, neither has the particular point to which she is to go been determined.

The letter of President O’Reilly of the Board of Public Improvements pledging his best work to carry out the will of the people concerning the municipal bridge, within the scope of his duties and powers, is a refreshing note from the City Hall. His state- ment of the mode of procedure with his pledge to act when the preliminary steps have been taken, clears the atmosphere. The Municipal Assembly must provide for the is- suance of the bonds, under the direction of the Mayor and Comptroller; the bridge must be located in conjunction with the Secretary of War; the plans and specifications for the structure must be prepared by the board and embodied in ordinances, by the Municipal Assembly. This simple program covers a large amount of work, which will require high capacity and industry applied to most important problems. The location -of the bridge, the plans for its construction and operation with the facilities necessary to that pur- pose involve questions of vital import, the de- termination of which calls for the best judgment and skill. V8ith the exception of the actual plans and speci- fications for the construction of the bridge these problems must be solved by the Municipal Assembly. We believe it cannot do better than create at the earliest possible time a capable commission to study

A TRAVESTY ON JUSTICE. Within fifty-three minutes after Allen Mathis, a negro charged with assault, was brought into the courtroom at Mayfield, Ky., he was hanged. When the’ negro was brought into court the jury was in the box, the gallows and rope were ready. There were no arguments. There was no appeal. This mode of procedure was a shade mote legal! than lynching, but only a shade. it was lynching under some of the forms of law. The tragedy was set with the scenery and properties of a courtroom. But the Judge, jury, Sheriff, prosecutor and gai- lows were all ready to convict and execute an ac- eused. man, and the farcical form of a trial rather emphasized the travesty on justice. They mocked law. Perhaps the fact that the mob preferred to do their work in a courtroom with the accessories of justice, rather than to follow the usual procedure of lynching indicated a faint notion that some re- spect should be shown for the institutions of civ- ilization. We indulge the hope that this slight movement towards law and order sentiment will grow into a genuine regard for those institutions and a public opinion which will make a travesty on - justice in court, or a mob execution out of court impossible.

The remarkable gain in the beer tax receipts in spite of the Sunday lid, may serve to reassure us that our liberties are safe until a new law can be ~ made.

ee ee ee AN INTELLECTUAL TRIUMPH, Baron Gentaro Kodama, who died in Tokio last week, was known as the “brain of the Japanese army.” But, when the war with Russia broke out, he had had little or no experience in warfare and had hever held high command in the field. He thought out the Manchurian campaign in a room in « building overlooking the palace moat. In _ the room were a plain square table and three chairs. On the table were a few sheets of paper and a pencil. As an “organizer of victory” Baron Kodama is the more remarkable, because he was only an “armchair strategist” But his case illustrates the radical al- teration which has taken place In the art of war. Physical science plays a greater part in the move- ment and fighting of armies than in the days of Grant and Lee, or even in those af Moltke. A hbat- tle line in the old days was long enough if it cov- ered 10 mijes, but Kodama and Oyama controlled and directed the movements of nearly a million men ’ _ stretched in a line 100 miles long. The inspiration of the commander’s immediate presence, so power- ful in Caesar's and Napoleon's wars, is absent. The Field Marshal takes up his station 50 miles behind the firing line and issues his commands by tele- ae a Money and telegraph. His troops do not see him. with a field glass in his hand, like Grant. Emperor William dwelt upon this when he made one of his characteristic speeches to his officers after the Japanese victories. In such warfare the work of preparation and nina’ thought is the main thing. The army 1s a machine and the commande; is the engine driver. But he must work by wire, not by word of mouth. It was Baron Kodama’s glory that he constructed this machine and prescribed the mode of its employ- ment. out all the battles, and probably had alternative plans for use in case of Japanese reverses. But the series. of successes which distinguisned Oyama’s caml- paign proved how well the great administrator had done the work. The Manchurian campaign was 4 triumph of sheer intellect without any of the clap- trap of war, or any of the inspiration which used to play so great a part in great battles, except the inspiration of patriotism, which every common sol- dier in the Mikado’s army shared with Oyama and Kodama, 50 miles away. ooo If the high tariff is the mother of trusts, then the Republican their grandmother.

“HIGH CRIMES AND MISDEMEANORS” There is no room to question the authenticity of the letters to Judge Owen P. Thompson of Jacksonville, from the Trossachs Hotel in Scotland and “William J. Bryan.” One of the letters, written to Judge Thompson, in- eloses the other, also addressed to him, with direc- tions that it should be published as a message to the people of Illinois “if the effort to induce Mr. Roger Sullivan to resign from the National Commit- 9? on July 7 Ill., signed written tee fails. Mr. Sullivan having refused to be induced to re- sign, the message is that he “was one of the lead- ers in high crimes and misdemeanors committed against the Democracy of Illinois.” This is very possible. Mr. Bryan is probably a judge of high crimes and misdemeanors in any case in Illinois politics to which he has devoted the earnest thought he must have given the case of Mr. Sullivan before writing from Loch Katrine to de- mand his retirement. But could any crime or misdemeanor committed against Democracy in Illinois be higher than the crimes and misdemeanors committed against De- mocracy in Missouri by the machine politicians whose corruption lost the State to the Democratic party? If Mr. Bryan will fully investigate these crimes and misdemeanors, beginning no further back than 1898 and coming no further forward than 1904, he may find much worse in Missouri than he has sus- pected in [llinois. He will certainly find that these same men are now reorganizng in the hope of using him to re-establish themselves in control of the State. He will also find that the people of Missouri are open-minded and willing to hear all he may have to say on the subject. They will listen gladly if he sends them such a message as he has sent to II-

linois. —_—_—_____-— © © Vegetarians may point with pride to Missouri's

ference was admirably conceived. sentiment and tactfully turned. © It is true of the American people, as Secretary Root said, speaking in the name vf the United States. “We wish for no victories except those of peace. We wish for no territory except our own and no sovereignty except over ourselves.” Such formal assurance from the delegate-diplomat should go far toward disarming our southern neigh- bors’ misgivings. But speeches will not suffice. The rape of Panama stands of record. The Santo Do- mingo adventure is still nursed as a pet measure of the administration. South and Central Americans may fairly ask themselves whether there be more sallies abroad when opportunity offers and _ self- interest invites. _—- —— The Michigan Republicans have declared for a constitutional amendment providing for the elec- tion of United States Senators by the people. That is much better than “standing pat.”

EOS ENE aoe ee Mee A DOLLAR CAMPAIGN. Dollar campaigns should be not less popular than the dollar dinners instituted several years ago as a rebuke to the spirit of luxury and expense. If every Republican follows Mr. Roosevelt’s ex- ample he will have the proud satisfaction of know- ing that he is listed among the men who do some- thing for the party. He will receive by return mail a campaign book containing information more or less trustworthy or untrustworthy. But, best of all, he can be proud to think that he is helping to liberate his party from the ownership of pirates, grafters and monopolists, and lead it back to the ways of common decency and honor. And what is

the here said of the Republicans is equally applicable to Democrats, although they have not sinned so egregiously (owing, perhaps, to lack of opportunity). If dollar there will be oa $12,000,000-—or $6,000,- 000 to contributions are in- significant derived from in- surance holders other investors in great corporations. But they are honest—not a negligible consideration in these days of moral in- dignation. 8s the sum total will probably be enough to meet all legitimate demands. Of course, larger donations will not be refused. And the speculators in legislation, the men who buy spécial favors with large subscriptions, will no doubt be on hand with their checkbooks, But for the present, honesty is undoubtedly the best policy, and no shrewd campaign chairman will receive a fat check if he thinks it may compromise his party. No deceht party man wants to get caught, like Cor- voter sends a of party. compared every total each about The to thore policy and And as many a mickle makes a muckle,

The he said, with a grim mile: ‘That excuse is about as poor as che one a criminal lawyer offered for sis client in a case that had gone hard with him, “Gentlemen of the ew? cried this lawyer, eloquently, ‘remember that my client is hard of hearing, and that, therfore, the voloe of conscience appeals to him in vain.’ ” Our Proneness to Exaggerate. Prof. Brander Matthews, the chairman f Mr. Carnegie’s moverment toward the amplification of spelling, was talking ‘ecently about exaggeration. “We are too prone to exaggerate,'} he ald. “We exaggerate in our advertise- nents. We exaggerate in our trade- narks and labels. Is a 9 horsepower sngine really as strong as 9) horses?” Prof. Matthews laughed. “JT entered one night,’” he resumed, “the study of a friend of mine.

oe coins icant i _ REMEDY FOR FRECKLES. t ° Freckles are deposits of carbon be- neath the outer. skin. Place some blistering fluid over one and the outer skin will come away and the freckle with it. To follow this severe method of treat- ing them would be paying dear for one’s g00d looks. Try instead this simple remedy, which is frequently successful: Apply to the face five or six times a day a saturated solution of borax in rosewater, and allow it to dry on the skin. _ Another excellent remedy for more obstinate cases is, mix thoroughly oil of almonds, a teaspoonful; add enough lemon juice to make a thick paste; spread it on the face fn a thin plaster, night and morning, until the skin smarts. In a few days the outer skin should loosen and peel off, as dead skin, almost imperceptibly, and the freckles disap- pear. After they have gone the skin should be bathed several times a day with a solution of borax. Lemon juice alone is known to be quite effectual and comparatively harm- less in removing freckles. The skin should first be softened by some almond paste or a light poultice. and a freshly cut lemon then rubbed on the spot. One must use one’s own discretion in using recipes or preparations, repeating it as often as many be necessary or ac- cording to the manner it may act upon one. Some skins are delicate and require light restoratives, others demand stronger measures. Lotions of vichy water are recom- mended as wonderfully effective in ob- literating freckles. Apply night and morning, continue for several minutes, and let it dry without wiping. Some skins and temperaments demand the curative powers of the minerals that flow from the earth, others the vegeta- ble compounds. But whatever the case, the more sim- ple and natural remedies are found to be the most effectual.—Philadelphia Press.

Written in Sarcastic Vein. The real reason why women occupy the smokers’ seats on street cars is threefold. Smoking is an unnecessary and filthy habit which catered to. If men must smoke, let them smoke somewhere elSe than on the cars, If they persist in smoking on the cars, let them sacrifice their own con- venience rather than that of less of- fensive passengers and stand on the platform. Arguments might be ad- vanced against the justice of these posi- tions, but none that would budge the women, bless 'em.—Kansas City Jour- nal. :

| WIDOW E HURT IN AUTO ACCIDENT AND DIAGRAM O

WIDOW HURLED OUT Ur AUTO BY tan ee ee ee Mrs. Gussie Malloy Hurt in Ac- cident While Riding at Midnight. CONFUSED BY GARS

Says They Were Approaching and It Was Impossible to Escape All. A street car smashed into an automo- bile at 11:30 p. m. Wednesday and, dis- mantiing it, hurled one of the occu- pants, Mrs. Gussie Malloy, on the side- walk, stunning and seriously injuring her. The chauffeur and another man in the machine escaped injury. Mrs. Malloy is a young widow. She had been employed. at a North Broad- way business house, and Vincent J. Gor- ley, accompanied by QOharles Wilems, called at her home, 1509 Palm street, and invited her to take an auto ride, according to her story. She said they had gone a considerable distance be- fore the accident happened. The runabout automobile, she says, was traveling north on Jefferson avenue at a moderate pace when it approached the street car tracks at Jefferson ave- nue ang Hebert street. There was a car of the Eighteenth street line cross- ing from Hebert street, another com- ing south on Jefferson and a third speeding north on Jefferson avenue, she says, when the crash came. Mrs. Malloy asserts that as the street car approached from behind Charles Willems. jumped out and tried to stop it, but the car did not stop and hit the auto. The machine was splintered, the woman was hurled onto the sidewalk, and the chauffeur, Gorley, was spilled out. Fainted Eight Times, A carriage was called and Mrs. Mal- loy was taken to her home. She was seriously hurt and fainted eight times before she was placed in bed. She struggled to her feet after the accident and crawled some distance be- fore she lost consciousness. She _ re- gained sensibility and declared that she could walk to her home. But she again relapsed into unconsciousness and a doc- tor was called. She did this six times more before she reached her home. The men unhurt left the wrecked ma- chine and went to their homes. Mrs. Malloy is believed to be injured internally. She complains of pain in the chest. -She is living at her. mother's home. According to Mrg. Malloy they. had no chance to avoid the collision, fearing that they would run into a car either way they turned. SHE ACOUSES PRISONER. Woman Tells Herpel George Meyers Left Her. Mrs. George Meyers of 2927 Chouteau avenue, who says she was left with six children to care for when her husband abandoned her last March, Thursday asked Sheriff Herpel of St. Louis Coun- ty if there was any way she could have the emall sentence her husband is serv- ing indefinitely continued. Mra. Meyers carried her youngest baby, a boy & months old. She looxes weary and her face was worn. Herpel explained to her that George Meyers had been arrested for disturbing the peace at De Hodiamont, July 13. He was fined $1 and costs of $25.18. He. will free Aur “*Ten't there ‘some way,” asked the woman, ‘I can have him locked up un- til he learns better than to desert a wife and her six chikiren? He left me in March without money, provisions or credit. I had all the children to care for.” Sheriff Herpe! said he had no power to help her as Sheriff. He advised her to go to Bt. Louis and swear out a warrant for w'fe-abandonment. Mrs. Meyers left without seeing her husband, who was only a few feet away ina cell.

CASHIER HARRIS 10 BE PROSECUTE Secretary of State Swanger Says Evidence Is Now Being Gathered. BOOKS IN BAD SHAPE

Swanger Says This.Was Why Shortage Went Years Undiscovered, Special to the Post-Dispatch. SPRINGFIELD, Mo., Aug. 2. tary of State Swanger, who is today, says positively that John Harris, cashier of the 3ass-Johnson Banking Co. at Ashland, Mo., will be prosecuted by both State and county authorities as soon as sufficient evi- dence is at hand. ‘Harris will most proseciuted,”’ said Mr. Post-Dispatch reporter. “The statement that there will be no prosecution is erroneous. The State authorities and those of Boone County are now making a thorough investi- gation of affairs and just as soon as they are in possession of all the evi- dence Harris will be prosecuted. “In regard to the failure of bank ex- aminers to discover the _ shortage of Cashier Harris,"’ continued Mr. Swanger, “the books of the bank were kept in such poor fashion that it was almost im- possible to discover the defalcation. “The peculations of Harris, according to him, covered a period of from seven to ten years, and have been in such gmall amounts that they were hard to Secre- here S. be a certainly Swanger to Oniy @iscovered through the National Bank of Com- merce, the St. Louis correspondent of the Ashland institution. “Why the examiners before my term did not discover the shortage I cannot say, but Charles W.

POLICE “HOLD UP" STAGE IN THE CITY Prisoners - Carried in Convey- ance in Which They Came From County.

USED IT AS “HURRY-UP”

Report of Fight at Ferguson Makes the Lally Twins Active. There was a real stage coach ‘“‘hold- up’ in St. Louis when Policemen Jim ead Pete Lally captured the outfit and mioted it to the Newstead Avenue Sta- tion. They wanted two men in the stage party, and considered that the best way to get them was to “hold up’’ the coach and capture the entire party. The coach was a six-horse affair be- longing to Jullus S. Walsh. A party of men, including John O'Donnell of 4829 aston avenue and Richard Wipperling of 214 North Channing avenue, who claim to be employes of Walsh, and John D. Brennan of 316 North Channing avenue had driven in the coach to Fer- suson. Trouble had arisen there and had beaten trennan with a beer bottle, after witich the coach had started for St. I[.ouls, leaving Brennan out there. The Town Marshal of Ferguson had telephoned to the St. Louis police to in tereept the coach and arrest the two men, and Policeman Jim Lally of the Newstead Avenue Station was sent out on the trail. His twin brother, Police- man Pete Lally, went along. They figured that the coach would pass Channing avenue and Olive street. When it came Policeman Jim got the drop on Whipperling, who was driv- ing, and stopped the coach. Police- man Peter sprong into the coach with drawn revolver and covered the rest of the men and demanded to know which was O'Donnell. The latter an- nounced himself and was arrested. Policeman Jim took a seat beside Whipperling on the box and command- ead him to drive to the Newstead Ave- nue Station. This was done and both men were locked up. Later they were inken to the Four Courts. They say they acted tin self-defense. New Boat Boiler Inspector. \. J.

Seeing what he thought to be the dan- ger signal, and hearing a cry command- ing him to jump for his life, James Dot- son, fireman of the Alton Bridge engine, leaped from the cab window and plunged 30 feet to the bottom of a steep embankment, between the West [Alton oor ese the bridge. 1e engine and two passenger cars rushed “on at high speed. Dotson, stunned and bruised, dragged himself to the summit of the embankment, expect- ing to see the train a mass of ruin and twisted iron and the tralnmen and pas- sengers pinioned In the wreckage. Stopping after a short distance, the crew backed the train up slowly. They found the fireman in the soft clay, his back injured. The switch leading into an abandoned track was not open, as the signal light indicated. The danger signal had been changed from red to white the day be- fore, but the bridge crew had not been notified of the change. Brakeman Thomas Parker was also in the cab at the time and prevented Engineer Hyndman from leaping. “| would rather be in a real wreck than be frightened like that,’ devlared Engineer Hyndman to a Post-Dispatch reporter Thursday. “I would have jumped if Parker had not held me,’’ continued the engineer, ‘“‘because I always obey signals. When we rounded the curve and approached the abandoned switch, I happened by mere chance to look at the signal, ook for it; because it is never used. When I saw the danger signal I shouted to Dotson to jump for his life. “Dotson leaped from the cab without further warning, and as I turned to jump Parker caught me by the arm.’’ “ "The switch is all right, Tom, don’t jump,’ he said. “I looked at the track. The switch was set right, but I held fast to the side of the cab as we passed over. I thought Dotson would be killed when I saw him jump.”’ The officials of the bridge are inveasti- gating the fatlure to notify the train orew of the changed signals. 24 Pounds for $1.00.

JOHN MITCHELL MAY RUN FOR CONGRESS Democrats Plan His Candidacy in Seventh Indiana District. Special to the Post-Dispatch. LAPORTE, Ind., Aug. 2.—If plans of Democratic leaders do not miscarry Jotn Mitchell, the labor leader, will be a prominent figure in the congressional fight in this State this fall. It is pro- posed to make him the party candidate for Congressman in the Seventh Indiana District, which embraces the city of In- dianapolis, and which is now represent- ed in the lower house by Jesse Over- street, Republican, who has been renom- inated. Indianapolis is the headquarters of the miners’ organization of which Mr. Mitchell is the head and it is believed that his personality and influence would insure him the united labor vote. Mr. Mitchell's prospects of election, if he ac- cepts the nomination, will be enhanced by the independent candidacy of Judge McCrary, Republican, who is boss rule in his party. It is also believed that ell’s candidacy will aid materially in electing the State ticket. He is expect- ed to give an answer to importunities of the Democratic leaders within a few days.

Mr. Mitch- ~~ PAPAL CROSS FOR GHIO. ee ] For his generous gifts toward Italian Catholic work in Missouri, especially to the Church of St. Charles Borromeo, the title of Commander of the Order of St. Gregory the Great hag been con- ferred by Pope Pius X upon James C. Ghio, a St. Louis real estate man, -who lives near Normandy. The papal brief conferring the honor was received by Archbishop Glennon. The Archbishop and Father Caesar Spigardi visited Mr. Ghio at his home Wednesday afternoon and informed him - the distinction that had come to m. For previous generosity Mr. Ghio had received the silver cross ‘‘Pro ecclesia et pontifice.”” With the new honor, Which confers on its holder a place tn the papal nobility, there is a gold Mal- these cross with the words ‘Sanctus Gregorius Magnus,’ and the motto of the order, ‘‘Pro Deo et principe.” The order was instituted in 1831, and there are at present but 70 commanders of the Order of St. Gregory the Great in the world.
