REFUSES 4 PER CENT Declares Interest Wanted for Small Investors Is Enough for - Big. Player told. a Wednesday Comptroller Post-Dispatch reporter that the city would “stand pat’ in its purpose to dispose of the $3,500,000 bond issue for public buildings and im- provements artd the $2,000,000 renewal bonds which mature June 25, at 3.65 per cent, despite an effort of local bankers and brokers to have them disposed of at 4 per cent. He said that if the city was unable to dispose of the bonds at 3.65 per cent, if necessary the city would purchase the renewal bonds with other sinking funds and this would probably result in the withdrawal of $7,000,000 of municipal cash and securities now on deposit in local banks, ye would go to WHast- ern banks. Hie condemned the suggestion that *“e bonds be put on the market in amall denominations of $25, $50 and $100 by public subscription and mentioned the trouble attending such a prabosition in 1887, when the cify sold $2,804,000 of water works bonds in this manner. Bankers and brokers who handled that issue had difficulty in selling the bonds. | Wants $1000 Denominations. The Comptroller recommends that the bonds be issued in $1000 denominations arid suggests the possibility of opening a public subscription list in the City Treasurer's office for the disposal of the $3,500,000 issue. ty Comptroller Player says that the enor- mous profits made by St. Louis finan- ciers in the last few years from vast underwriting propositions is responsible for their hesitancy in handling the pres- ent issues of 3.65 bonds at a small profit to them, which the present state of the market would permit. In this, he points out, they are not ac- tuated by the same civic pride as finan- ciers of Boston and Cincinnati, who re- cently gave their cities valuable assist- prive in municipal improvements. Mr. Player defines the bond-disposition question as a “negotiation contest’’ be- tween city officials and St. Louis bank- ers aod brokers. He says the assist- ance tendered conditional on the city’s consenting to a ‘‘so-called popular is- sue’’ of smal] denominations is inima- teria], as conditions are prohibitive. Must Obey Ordinances, Ordinances authorizing the issue‘ of bonds, he points out, are mandatory. He intimates that when the real facts in ihe case are made clear, little surprise will be entertained at the city author- itles’ hesitancy in responding to such ®% Suggestion. Hie says that were the small denomi- nation bonds of 1887 about to mature now, it is doubtful if a so-called ‘‘pop- ular loan’’ would meet favor among financiers, as an opportunity to realize a commission through the exchange of bonds would not be presented. The Comptroller further says that City ~~ dt is reasonable to suppose that bank- ers and brokers who have consistent- ly held that present market conditions will nH warrant the flotation of abil per cent bonds would voluntarily come to the city’s aid by assisting to place among local investors small de- nomination bonds bearing the same interest which they stoutly maltintain is insufficient. If they could be disposed of thus lecally, the Comptroller says, the city avwsisited by simply advertising that subscriptions would be received at the Treasurer's office for any amount from $1,000,000 to the total issue. Banks Ceuld Have Profited, Regarding the course of the city banks, Mr. Player said: “There is good reason to believe that the 500,000 bonds could have been readily handled in St. Louis at par when offered in March. It could have been done by the local banking insti- tutions, with the city’s money, at a — profit perhaps—certainly ‘at no The ot had on de t at that i it ros 1A me heen absorbed by the depositories with» out a dollar changing hands; that is to gay, by simply giving the city credit on their ks for ne amount of the bonds. ee bare Speculation. “The he piehe bo paid 2.61 per cent hi.terest (average) on. this credit and would, In turn, pay the banks 3.4 per cent on the bonds—A fairly good apec- ulative eal oppere ntly, none, of the monev rom this transaction would Rave been drawn out for at least six yionths.

LD The trial of the Rev. A.

They went to the office of the Prose- cuting Attorney. Looked for a Shooting. Mr. Ridenour strolled out into the corridor of the Courthouse and seemed to be looking for someone. It Was sus- pected that maybe he was looking for Fritchett, and a crowd of men, scent- ing a possible shooting, followed him. Ridenour was asked about it. “I'm, not looking for him,”’ he said. ‘Don’t want to see his ugly face. I’ve made up my mind to let the law handle him. Of course, if the law don’t do me justice I’m not saying what I might do. But for the present he’s safe from me.”’ “Are you going to sue your wife for divorce?”’ ‘“‘No, of course not; she’s not to blame. I pity her and am going to stand by her. She was simply a dupe of a man who wormed his way into my home. ‘We thought he was all right. He Was our pastor and he was a great personal friend of mine. I used to bor- row $25 and $50 from him at atime I thought he was just as safe as having my own father in the house.” “How do you explain the letters she wrote the pastor?” was asked. “Oh, that’s easy. He dictated them to her, stood over her and told her how to write them. She did it for fun, you know.’ 2 “all Nof, Know n. , Mr. Ridenour said that “all of Pritch- ett’s meanness was not known to the public.’”’ “There are 11 different women of his congregation who could tell about him if they would,’’. he said.

She bothered about one thing only and that was the suspicion that someore might be a photographer. ‘If you're going to put my picture in the paper I want you to snsp me when 1 am not looking,’’ she said. hat last picture you nad of me was simply horrid. If I looked as homely as that I would not blame my husband for leaving me.”’ “Have you heard from your husband since this happened?’’ she was asked. “Since whut happened?” she retorted. “Well, since this exposure.”’ Will Back, “What exposure?” she exclaimed. “{ have done nothing to be exposed about. My husband knows where lI am and if he wants to come back the door’s open. I don’t care to repeat what Pritchett said to me. He got calied down good and hard, too.

ICE SECRETS. WRUNG FROM TRUST BAROK —- }---— - Secretary Penning Forced ‘Show How Merger S Was Paid For. Stock TELLS WHITELAW’S Promoter Received 162 Shares; Each Put In 2400 Shares. Continuing the inquiry Into the merg- er of the ice compames of St. the Polar Ice and Fuel Co., torney Sager had H. KE. Penning, tary of the company, the witness Stand Wednesday morning. Mr. Penning had the company's stock book with him, and from the stubs read the manner i Which the stock had been issued. It developed that when the compan: Was being formed each of the partici- pants was repré¢sented by 2400 shares These were put into the company Feb. 13, 1903, and. on the Same day the Stock was canceled and new stock issucd te the holders in the new company. Mr. Sager went into the inner his- tory of the formation of the company, with the intent of ascertaining to whit extent Charles W. Whitelaw, organizer of the company, had benefited. It was shown that Mr. Whitelaw had received 1622-5 shares of stock, but it ws claimed that this was in lien of his hold- ings of the original two companies in which he was interested. Shortly before noon the hearing adjourned at Sager’s request. He that he wanted Secretary Penning of the Polar Wave Co. to bring with him, when the hearing was resumed at 1:30 p. m.,. the minute book of the company. ’ “J will show by that, I am sure.” said Sager, “what I failed to show by the stock book, that the rake-off of the Muckermanns and of Whitelaw amount- ed to $696,000 out of the $1,800,000 capital stock.’’ Circuit (‘ircuit Ate Secre- on was said Attorney Sager endeavored to get from Mr. White’aw on Tuesday an admission that he had made $200,000 by romoting the combination. Witness’ apse of ii1emory prevented him from clearing up this cuestion. Mr. Sager lost patience and finally said that he the books of the company the witness’ memory. Order for the Books, Referee Clifford P. Allen whom the evidence is being taken, is- gued a subpena for the secretary of the company and ordered that the books be produced. For a man who was intrusted with the capital of big concerns that runs up into millions Mr. Whitelaw proved to a most forgettul witness. He could not remember anything concerning the amount of stock he received for or- ee the company, how much he eld in .two of the mdependent com- egey prior to the merger, how much had sold, hat he received for the stock he sold, What is was worth orig- ina.v or wha. its value now. Mr. Whitelaw did manage to remem- ber his signature, however, when it was shown to him aitached to a con- tract by which the merger was ef- fected. This agreement stipulated that the officers and stockholders of the Ameri- can Ice and Fuel Co, the Muckermann Coal and Ice Co., U nion Ice Co., Creve Coeur Ice Co., Huse & Loomis Ice and Transportation Co. Huse-Goodall Ice Co. and the Hygeia Tee Co, should sell their stock to the Polar Wave Ice and Fuel Co. and accept shares in that company in payment. Combine of Two Classes, Mr. Whitelaw said that there were two classes in the combine—the com- nies that were known as the White- aw companies and the Huse & Loomis Co., both of which harvested and man- ufactured ice. None but the Huse- Goodall Co., he said, was engaged in the retail trade. There were four of the Muckermann companies, three of which were engaged in the retail business. “I don’t recall” and “I don’t remem- ber” were prominently in the fore- round among the answers that Mr. Vhitelaw gave to questions. It was because of these answers that the Cir- cult Attorney asked for an adjournment until today.

Immediately the case assumed a legal aspect, and a formal demand was made for the return of one pet, as per de- posit slip. The d: il failed to elicit either a satisfactory explanation or a cat, and Mr. Uvyecks looked further. Whether by reason of suggestiveness cognomen, or of detective instinct, Sycks followed clews that led to B. Katzky, in whose possession it was foernd. But the vielded not unallc--ed pleasure, because Mr. Katzky showed a earefully written bill of sale for the cat, and refused to surrender it. This complicated matters and left no course to Mr. Syeks, but to either abandon |.is pet or resort to the law.

LOUIS POST-DISPATCH—MAY 29,1907 ~—- -——— "ERLANGER TALKS | OF VAUDEVILLE Will Put Twenty-Five Compa- nies on Road Next Season. In a recent interview given to Charles Darnton of the New York Evening World; A. L. Erlanger of Klaw & Er- langer, who will have a Vaudeville house in St. Louis next talked informally of ‘‘advanced vaudeville” and of the new combination'’s plans for the near future. Most interesting was that portion of the interview bearing direct- season, ly on next season's offerings. “Nothing has ever been done vaudeville in this Mr. Erlanger. “He more than a ‘drop,’ and, with onty this if it may called an aid, he is to get b the footlights. We are going to cnange all that. If a performer comes out, for example, to sing ‘Waiting at the Church,’ the church will be there, In otner words, we shall provide an appropriate seiting for every act on the bill. Compiete Vaudeville Tour, for the ’” said given country, seldom actor is be act over aid, left Companies on “Instead of making vp the bill each week, as custom, we shall have on which will remain practically iniact during the entire season. By. following this plan we shall know that an. entertainment opening in any of the yarious cities where we have theaters Will contain no new material that is untried, and that the bill is a wood, smoothly running per- formance. That is one of the principal innovations we shall make. Every conml- pany sent wut will be equipped as com- letely as a revular: organization piay- ng the so-calli.d legitimate theaters. Bach company will have a @tage manager and musical director. Will HRevolatiouize the Business. “In my opinion this sysiem will revo- lutionize the vaudeville business, for It will result in making the entertain- ments brighter and beiter: each act will fit into the progranr, it Will have been tried; the people will have been work- ing together for months instead of com- ing together as strangers every Mon- day-—in short, the opening show will not be a trial performance. There will be another innovation: Instead of having only one headliner, we shall try to have the whole bill made up of headliners. We do not intend to have one big fea- ture. surrounded by inferior acts, a condition which is a hardship not only to the performer who heads the bill, but a greater one to the patrons, who are obliged to sit in a_theager for two tours in order to get 15 minutes of real entertainment. “Instead of having weak acts called ‘chasers,’ we intend to have the best come last and to end the bill with a musical comedy or farce. We do not contemplate giving any serious sketches, for the reason that we believe people go to vaudeville to be amused. One of our biggest features will be rhomp- son & Dundy’s Circus. Our vaudeville houses will be conducted on precisely the same principle as our regular thea- ters. A.short farce or musical comedy will be cast with the same care that we would give to a production playing in a first-class New York theater, now the 25 companies, is tour a . ROSY TEACHERS Lock Better in the School-Room than the Sallow Sort. —— oe ee ee ee & Young folks naturally like comely objects, and a good looking, healthy teacher can do vastly more with pupils, evervthing else considerd, than the skinny, dyspeptie teacher can. The in- structor in Latin and mathematics in a young ladies’ seminary, had an ex- perience worthy the attention of any teacher. She kept running down a hiittle more each year until finally a genuine case of nervons prostration set in and she was confined to her bed for eight months, a perfect wreck, phy sically and mentally. She and her friends thought it was due to overwork, but she now Knows it was due to improper food. Of course the physicians were calied in, but there is almost nothing that can be done in such cases, except to rely on well selected food and proper care. She was put upon Grape-Nuts, all medicines, also tea, coffee, and iced dviiks: were taken away. She had Postum Food Coffee once a day.

Ls] ‘ man, and his opinion of the worth of ball players is who know him. Said Clarke: by Cantillion. Well, “T note where a big offer was made for Powell and O’Connor there you have my dream of a catcher. O’Connor never had an equal behind the bat, in my opinion. It was indeed a sad day in Pitts- burg when we lost him during the war. I didn’t mind the loss of the other three, because I could develop average fielders and twirlers, but it is not so when you come to the catchers. Like old Bushong, Farrell, Robinson and other ence-famous mittmen they are born, not made or developed. O’Connor, to my way of thinking, figuring his work ever since he began playing, has probably won more games for his team and for pitchers, with his inside work than a doz- en average catchers. He might not be as showy as Criger, as steady a plugger as Sullivan, or as noisy as Bresnahan, but he is always pulling something off en the opposition. He is a lightning-quick thinker and he knows every sign, bluff or play ever pulled off. At the bat also he is a terror to have up in a pinch. He bluffs the catchers, rattles the pitchers and when he is hitting good he nails the ball very hard. I wish I had him on my team right now.” HANLON ARRIVES WITH HIS RED LEGS. this city this morning, accom- panied by his aggregation of red-legs. Mr. Hanlon’s nine will indeed be giv- en a cordial welcome by Mr. McCloskey and his Cardinals. The Over- the-Rhineites are such a quiet, easy, non-aggressive band of athletes. They are playing regulation baseball and going at about the Cardinals’ speed. Thus the series which begins today should prove a bit more _ interest- _ing than the one just ended with the plastering Pirates. If the Cardinals can wipe up the lot with tne Reds _ threejor four times hand-running, why _they will be in ‘tion to jump a_ few notches in the percentage column. The Reds allowed the Cubs to present them with a rather stinging beat- ing at Cincy yesterday. The Lajole Blues got even with Big Jol. mer in which he handled them when they Powell cannot pitch dark weather, royal beating before the fame was really well under way.

TALK ABOUT the Germans in base- ball! In a New York State League game the other day Schultz pitched for Syracuse and Schiitzer for Utica. Then Scranton has a pitcher named Schultz. “SPEED ALONE doesn’t count, while strength alone isn’t of much value,”’ says Fielder Jones of the White Sox. “You've got to us@® your head. The team with the noodle is the one that invariably wins in the long run. The theme of baseball is much like that of prige-fighting. Speed and strength must be mixed thoroughly = with brains.’’ THE CINCINNATIS are scheduled to play three games during the Elks’ reunion in Philadelphia in July, and the ball tossers wil! find it difficult to obtain accommodations at that time, owing t the fact that every- thing has been engaged at the hotels. it will be a case of cots end eight or nine in a room.

The motive for De Raylan’s masque- rade, which had been kept years, is mixed. Part of it dates back to her early affair with a girl in South- ern Russia, at the first period of her assuming ‘‘manhood,” and part of the ‘explanation is found in her connection with revolutionury ‘‘bunds’’ in this country and Russia. Mrs. Eugenie Bruchulis, De Raylan’s first ‘“‘wife,”’ and Mrs. Anna De Raylan, both unbosomed themselves recently in explaining the “mystery.” There was no great secret dating back @ an ‘‘affair’’ with a nobleman in Rus- gia. The woman, De Raylan, was of the common classes of the southern part.

PROPERTY OWNERS MAKE WAR ON NEW NEGRO GARDEN

Rebellion is rife in the blocks bounded by St. Louis, Uni: and Arlington ave- nues and Natural Bridge road. Appar- ently there is not a person, even to the children living in that section, who is not on the warpath. Just these three words haye aroused the inhabitants to action: Negro Summer Garden. “IT am but a woman and can only voice my sentiments,’”’ said Mrs. Grace E. L.

Nearly every resident in the neighbor- hood is a property owner. That is why vhen grading teams began work on Monday on a tract or land at.the northeast corner of Labadie and Union avenues, getting the place ready for the erection of a summer garden for egroes, there was indignation that in i2 hours developed to a mass meeting of

neys, with elaborate display of acumen and legal’ lore, before a learned Federal Judge, who, solemn- ly and judiciously weighing the law, the evidence and the authorities, decided that the prisoner must go to Texas to stand trial. An appeal to a higher court was filed in his behalf. Now comes Mr. C. H. Yoakum of Fort Worth, Tex., an experienced public prosecutor, who de- clares that there is no affidavit section in the Tex- | as anti-trust law. It was repealed after an Illi- nois court had decided that a similar section, of which the Texas clause was an exact copy, was unconstitutional. Mr. Yoakum asks why try a man for a violation of an unconstitutional law which no longer exists? The fnquiry is pertinent, but belated. It sug- gests anothet question: Why was not the Yoakum question asked before the ponderous machinery | of justice in State and Federal courts and in| State executive offices | had been put in motion to | | grind out a vast grist of opinions and documents | on the subject of a non-existent law?

According to testimony made a matter of legal record in the recent past, Judge Wilfley, as an attorney for parties interested in securing a belt railway franchise from the county authorities at Clayton, was in a position to observe at close range the juggle through which it was secure by the payment of money to a Clayton politician. These developments indicate that there is press- ing need for reform in Clayton as well as in Shanghai. As the Post-Digpatch’s cables from Shanghai show that Judge Wilfley is able to get to the bottom of the worst in Chinese corruption when he exerts his full energies, it is possible that with that work completed, he may return to St. Louis and help to solve the problems Clayton has continued to present during his absence. -, = "SS The insurance policy issued to Mrs. Suspense Joshing has given the paragraphers a new lease on life. ‘

iat i re A RADICAL EXPERIMENT. The experiment of paroling Oscar J. Weins- berg on “good behavor” is a daring one, and ex- perts in sociology all over the country will prob- _ ably watch the results, as St. Louis reports them. ‘f not without precedent, the cage still involves a radical innovation. It substitutes principles of experimental sociology, not yet clearly defined, for what have been the established principles of criminal law. | The facts in brief are that a voy of 18, the age of firat manhood, planned the death of his father with careful deliberation, and only failed of his purpose by accident. As the father’s wound did _ hot prove fatal, the youth was sentenced to two " years’ imprisonment on his plea of guilty.

He suggested another era of good feeling of the abuse of corporate power, wealth and in- fluence. Mr. Bryan’s remarks on the subject are in har- mony with the central thought of Mr. Graves’ piea. He evidently does not consider the masses of the parties far apart. He looks upon Theo- almost as good as himself. But doubtless Mr. Bryan differs with Mr. Graves on the question of the leader of the good | feeling campaign, He probably thinks that. the man to lead the fight of Democracy against plu- 'tocracy is the Democratic leader and not the Republican trailer. There’s .«e rub. The masses of both parties are practically united on the main issue of the people against the plunder bund. The idea of making a political division of the country on the line between the plunderers and the plundered, between the plain, honest people and the plutocratic pirates is capti- vating. But can the party leaders be brought to- gether? Can the party generals, captains and lieu- tenants be persuaded to sink the love of power and the appetite for spoils in the fervor of patriotism ? = = — = =

The sign seems to be that meat is to soar again. Eventually quite a lot of people may find them- selves as strong without meat as they were when they bought it three times a day. INTERSTATE RETALIATION. Provoked by the new Missouri fish law requir- ing a $15 license from aliens, Illinois sportsmen are planning retaliation. This interstate retaliation illustrates our re- moteness from at least one of the goals toward which society is strivirs. It has resulted in many senseless game laws. An unlicensed Missourian caught in Arkansas with a bean shooter over his shoulder is haled before the local Dogberry and stripped of everything but his return ticket. Re- taliating upon the unlicensed Arkansan caught in Missouri with a blowgun under his-arm, we make him pay the house rent that month for the village squire and four bailiffs. An innocent St. Louis picnic party, spreading dinner by some running water over in Illinois, is raided b¥ depu- ties and prosecuted under the fish laws, with the | sardines offered in evidence. The man wishing to return to his native State and fish once more in the old creek must pay a week's wages for a license and pin the license on his breast lest he be shot from ambush by game wardens. The grievance of the Hlinoi: sportsmen offend- ed by our new fish law is just; but their contem- plated retaliation is compounding a folly. What they should do is pray for Missouri, that it may become in time too gre to stoop to these silly things.

THE “PIGHEADED” GIRL. NCE an old farmer started to lead a pig to market, but the pig broke away ¢ and ran ahead ,down the hill toward the village. After vainly trying to catch him, the farmer called out: ‘‘Well, anyway, you will have to wait for me; you don’t know the address.”’ That pig had a will of its own and courage to make a dash for freedom. I wish more girls were ‘‘pigheaded” in those respects. The average girl trots meekly and stupidly along in leading strings, never inquiring whether cr not she is being led to slaughter. The small girl in a family of working people is chained to drudgery. She tends babies, washes dishes, cleans and scrubs and does her brother's “‘chores’’ besides, because “boys will be boys.” The young man of the family “strikes our for himself,” but the young women must get work “nearby,” and in her “leisure’’ hours makes ruffles for the children’s. petticoats, nurses Aunt Jane’s imaginary ailments, cooks for “rennions’ and represents the family at wakes and at christenings. I know a woman who would not be led in these paths. All her life she has exercised her own will, though people thought it “stubborn.” “Why,” she asked herself, ‘‘why should I accept the work the men won't take? What is the matter with my having a good job, one short on hours and long on pay?” She deliberately selected a useful occupation, too, for no self- respecting girl will spend her days in making hair bleacnes or jeweled dog- collars. In spite of all opposition she joined a trade union to raise wages, short- en hours and improve conditions in her trade. She worked as well as the man next to herin the shop andin the union; and she invented a new process for use in her department of the trade. ‘“‘Why should men be the only inventors?’ she asked. People advised her to stick to her job, but she kept right on leaving each place for a better one. “Why not ar ‘ng young woman, as well as a rising young man?’ asked. In her leisure hours—for she had leisure hours after a while—she insisted on her ‘‘own way.’’ Unlike the pig, which was content in a pig-sty, for a home; something more than just a place to eat and sleep. Ewery one told her she ought to be satisfied with her surroundings as she found them, but she proceeded to change her surroundings to suit herself. Next every one to tell her what change to make; but she “pig-headedly”’ persisted in her own kind of a home. No one was allowed to choose a sweetheart for this girl—not even the man himself. When she married it was because she “hada nind to.”’ She made her own choice. She has several children and knows \ :at she wants for them. Their grandmothers are forbidden to give the baby ‘‘squiils and paregoric.” Their Uncle Methuselah is not permitted to control their education. In short, this firend of mine has the will power and the courage of the pig, and she also has “the address.’’ She knows where she wishes to go and she ‘gets there.”’ she she wished began making

S autographs at the Actors’ Fair. At the risk of being adjudged presumptuous, I must disagree with Miss Terry, even though she is a grandmother and has. ac. cording to report, just taken to herself another hus- band. The most successful lovers are made, not born. Fo: each successful lover plays a system of his own, and the coldly scientific application of a system is not con. sistent with the spontaneity and genuineness of the born lover. A woman of a certain amount of experience to detect a man's system after five minutes” conver : sation with him—that is, if he has selected her for the A SSRtlee object of his next experiment. And, strangely enough, . though she knows every move of the system perfectly, it works just us well if it happens to be the’ one adApted to her peculiar temperament. What is perhaps the most frequent system is based on the assumption that a woman prefers to be taken for what she is not. The man who plays it, if he desires to make love to an unsophisticated girl of 18 or so, flatters her vanity by assuming that she is a woman of the world, and then makes her live up to her pose. Sometimes he says things that an older and wiser women would snub him for, but the sweet young thing feels that she can't without betraying that she is not the experienced coquette she thinks he takes her for. The ‘real the world he treats. on the contrary, as if she were a stained-glass saint that had just stepped from a cathedral window. Both women conclude that he ts “different” from all other men they have met, and that he elone has fathomed their real natures. The most successful lover does not love s» much as he gractously permits himself to be loved. When he really loves he ‘throws science to the winds. But loving and ‘“‘making love” are very different things. If Miss Terry had written that loving is easy, I would agree with her. But having upon occasion wite nessed the maneuvers of the professional flirt, having seen various “systems” of love-making played with more or less success by the scientific lover, I believe that to make love successfully requires calculation rather than inspiration. It requires system to make a cake—so much sugar, so much butter, so much flour. It requires system to make a dress. There are any number of dressmak- ing systems. It requires more system than either of these things to make love —so much flattery, so much frankness, so much unadulterated gall. And to pur- sue it successfully is not easy, but one of the rarest arts In the world.

MR. CONSUMER “ONLY VICTIM 0 BiG BEEF WAN Householder Faces 20 Per Cent Increase on Stand- ard Meats. RETAILERS ARE HELPLESS

Battle Between Packers and Commission Men Is Viewed With Alarm Soe - PRESENT MEAT PRICES. After 20 per cent advance.

Tenterioin (choice) perond quality Porterhous: Reteen steak ih roast beef Veal chops Veal cutlets Lez veal a a, aig ty Ler Mutton ..ccees ° Lamb chops When the head of the house audits his bill from the butcher in the course of the next few days he will see what a pretty price he is paying to see the shindy between the packrs and the com- mission men in East St. Louis. He will learn, further, that pending the trouble between them he will have to settle for any little damage they do themselves in the fray. It is all com- —— Se ‘for 6 cents.

iin fortably arranged in advauce that Mr. } Consumer, as being the party over whom the two sets of philanthropists are quarreling, must stand the cost of the strife. A butcher in the Union Market, where all classes of meat are sold to all classes of people, can’t see much comfort for the consumer. “The public doesn’t like the increase, but it does like meat—has to have it, in fact. That being the case the pub- lic will have to pay the price. If the consumer doesn't want to buy heef he might turn to chicken—not for relief, but for spite. You can buy a fine broiler That’s a little more than 3) cents a pound, but the satisfaction of beating the packer fs included in the figures. Retailer Gets the Blame, “We retailers don't profit by the ratse. We must have the same margin between the cost to us and the price at which we have to sell our meat. If the whole- sale cost goes up 2 cents our price is ivereased correspondingly. “We get all the blame, though. The women wil! hold us personally responsi- ble for all the trouble. If they haven't heard of the advance they will call our explanation of it a great big one and may say something about ‘robbers’ loud enough to be heard. “Meat has been high for several months and there isn’t any prospect of a decrease. The packers may have some good excuse for boosting the prices, but whether they have or not they can do it and we and our customers will have to pay what we are asked. i

S.S.S m A CERTAIN SAFE TREATMENT Even if mercury and potash could cure Contagious Blood Poison the condition in which these strong minerals leave the system would make the ‘‘cure worse than the disease. ’’ But they cannot cure the vile disor- der; they can only cover up the symptoms for awhile or mask the disease in the system, but as.soon as the treatment is left off the hideous symptoms return. Mercury and potash eat out the delicate lining of the stomach and bowels, produce chronic dyspepsia by drying up the gastric juices, cause the teeth to decay, and often completely break down the constitu- tion, and where they are used in large quantities, the bones become affect- | ed, while the disease for which one has so long taken this destructive treatment has not been cured. Contagious Blood Poison is a disease it will not dototrifle with. It is a vile, dangerous and destructive disorder. When the blood becomes infected with its virus the mouth and throat ulcerate, hair and eyebrows come out, glands in the neck and groin swell, copper-colored spots appear on the flesh, and in severe cases sores break out on the body, the finger nails drop off and the sufferer is diseased from Head to foot. S. 5S. S. is the only known antidote for Contagious Blood Poison—the one remedy that is able to get to the root of the disease and force out every particle of the poison so that there are never any signs of return, ks of known curative value. It 1s purely vegetable, made entirely from roots, herbs and Instead of leaving bad after-effects as some medicines do, S. S. S. tones up every part of the system and puts every part of the body in perfect health. It will also remove any linger- ing effects of former mineral treatment while eradicating the poison from the circulation.

Their Uniforms Are Barred From the Dancing Pavilion.

IS ANGRY

Discrimination in _ Favor of Soldiers Arouses ‘‘Fight- ing Bob.”

By Wire From the Washington Bu- reau of the Post-Dispatch, WASHINGTON, May 29.—Bluejackets of the American and foreign fleets were discriminated against at the Jamestown Exposition, being denied admission while in uniform to the dance pavilion of the Columbia Amusement Co. Soldiers in uniform were admitted without ques- tion, and this has increased the anger of the naval authorities. Admira] “F.hting Bob” command of the fleet, has threatened to withdraw his ships unless an apology is forthcoming promptly. The absence of the fleet would jeopardize the suc- cess of the Exposition, as the naval exhibit is one of the chief attractions. Gov. Swanson of Virginia and Henry St. George “Tucker, president of th: Jamestown Exposition, have been called on by the Secretary of the Navy for an explanation and to take prompt steps to have the discriminations stopped. Gov. Swanson has acvised the Navy Department that ne will do all in his power to prevent further insults being given the sailors of the navy. President Tucker has advised Secre- tary Metcalf that he has no jurisdic- tion over the amusement company in question and states that he “regrets this because it would give me great plea- sure to correct the matter, as I have no sympathy with, but contempt for, such discriminations.”’ Roosevelt Is Indignant. President Roosevelt is indignant and has directed the Secretary of the Navy to do everything in his power to cor- rect the insult. The Department of Justice may be called on to act in the matter. While the foreign fleets were in port at Fortress Monroe numerous com- plaints reached Admiral Lvans and other officers of the Atlantic fleet that Evans, in ed against by some of the amusement, companies having space at the Exposi- tion. The jackies while in uniform were denied admission, but the soldiers were allowed to enter without question.

Evans in an official communication. He informed Admiral Evans that well behaved and self-respecting blue jack- ets were insulted when they tried to enter the dancing pavilion of the Co- lumbia Amusement Co. at Pine Beach Park. They were told bluntly that their uniforms were objectionable. C. E. Lane, a gunner’s mete of th: first class, was directed by his superio! officers to try to gain admission to the park and if he was refused to ask an explanation. The test was made May 15. Lane, in his service uniform, wen! to the gate at the Pine Beach Park and was refused admission. On application to the management he was inforr.ed that under no circumstances would men in naval uniforms be admitted. The men were‘not objected to, but there was serious objection to the uniforms they wore. Offered Them Other Clothing. If the sailors wished to dance, Lane was informed, other clothing would be furnished by the management of the amusement company. Lane asked to be shown the clothing. He was conducted to a dressing room, where.a stock of white clothing was kept. The clothes were very similar to the regular service uniform. Lane told the manager that he would be forced to draw the line on a large number of boys and girls who wore uniforms similar to those of the sailors, if his rule was to be enforced. When the manager was informed by Lane that the matter would be referred to the proper authorities, the Manager said it ‘“‘would do no good and that it would be a waste of time.”’ Admiral Evans referred the matter to the Navy Department with the recom- mendation that the fleet be withdrawn from the waters near the Exposition grounds. Secretary Metcalf immediate- ly communicated with Gov. Swanson and President Tucker of the Exposition company for co-operation in preventing further indignities. No complaints have yet been received by the Department of State from any cf the foreign nations about the treat- inent accorded their sailors while visit- ing the Exposition. It is likely that an expression of regret will De wade by the American Government if it can be learned in what particular instance the foreigners were insulted.

It is offering a ser- ies of prizes amounting in the aggregate to $5000 in cash _for the best articles treating of any phase of the resources, scenery, irrigation projects, agriculture, horticulture, timber, dairying, history, educational and religious advantages, social conditions, etc., which make that section of the United States desirable to settlers.
