PLANS FOR NEW SHOE FACTORY Brown Company Will Build Es- tablishment at Montgom- ery, Mo. MONTGOMERY. Mo., July 3-—At a called meeting of the Montgomery Com- mercial Club last night it was decided that the proposition to give $50,000 in- stead of $40,000 for the new shoe fac- tory to be built by the Brown Shoe Co. of St. Louis would be accepted. Citl- zens and business men will raise the subscription. It is said the factory will cost about $100,000 and will employ about | 300 persons... vice-president of the Brown Shoe Co., said to a .Post-Dis- patch reporter that the Montgomery proposition had reached him Wednesday morning. “T know of no reason why we should not accept it,’’ said he. ‘‘Of course there are some details to be worked out be- fore the negotiations are closed. We need more room and Montgomery seems to offer the most favorable invitation to further our business.”’ INJUNCTION AGAIN REFUSED Judge Reynolds Declares the Rights of the Post-Dispatch Under a Carrier Contract. Judge Reynolds Wednesday for the second time refused a temporary in- junction asked by William Staroske, a newspaper carrier, against the Post- Dispatch to compel it to furnish papers to him. For a second time the court upheld the contract signed bv Staroske, n which the Post-Dispatch reserved the right to say whether Staroske should be permitted to handle other English papers. The injunction was first refused a week ago, but Staroske’s attorneys filed an amended petition, alleging the Post- Dispatch had instructed its agents that they should not supply him with papers. This, he charged, was in restraint of trade. By his ruling, Judge Reynolds holds such action is clearly within the rights of the Post-Dispatch under its contract with Staroske.

URCHARD 13 A PIPE DREAMER, WITNESS SAYS Pat Moran Denies That He Was Sent to Pettibone for $500. PINKERTONS SCORED Haywood Witness Says One Detective Counseled Violence. (BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.) BOISE, Idaho, July 3.—The defense in the Steunenberg murder trial today continued its attacks on the testimony of Harry Orchard and the methods of the Pinkerton Detective Agency. Pat Moran, who Orchard testified made a trip from Cheyenne to Denver for him to get $500 from George A. Pet- tibone, after the Independence station affair, went to the stand and testified that Orchard’s “pipe dream.”’ Joseph Story was false, a the witness called it. Barnes, but formerly a miner and a striker at Tel- luride, testified that George Riddell, the Pinkerton operative who worked up to leadership in the Telluride union, had proposed various crimes, including the dynamiting of mines and the burn- ing of the town. Barnes said that when it was proposed that the strike be set- tled Riddell forcefully opposed any set- tlement. The witness also said he met Orchard with Riddell at Telluride. On the cross-examination of Francis C. Clifford, an insurance man who formerly officed at Pettibone’s store, brought out the fact that between April and July, 1905, Orehard often lounged around Pettibone’s store. ‘John Dennis, a former Cripple Creek miner, when introduced as a _ witness said he knew a Pinkerton operative named Beckman who, as a member of the union, got up in meeting one day and declared he was tired of peace and thought something ought to be done. He was declared out of order by the president.”’ Bell Had a Bodyguard. George B. Breen, formerly ‘fa railroad conductor at Cripple Creek, and who was a@ witness several daysago, was recalled to tell of taking Gen. Sherman Bell and a company of militiamen to Dunnville, Colo., to round up some union men who had taken to the hills. Breen said that five uniformed men acted as Bell’s bodyguard. They carried sawed-off shotguns and _ six-shooters. The defense laid emphasis upon the sawed-off shotguns. Orchard, in his testimony, referred constantly to-weap- ons of this character, which he said he got at miners’ headquarcers. Breen told of the flight of three miners up the hill at Dunnville and the firing of the militia at them. One of the men was killed Several others were captured and thgie camp looted. In the camp the soldiers found two broken-down shotguns, one rifle, a six- shooter, a pair of scissors, a knife and fork and a can of sardines. Attorney Darrow, when asked the pur- pose of this testimony by the court, said it was to show a part of the gen- eral conspiracy to crush the Western Federation of Miners, As for several days past there were many vacant benches in the courtroom when the morning session of the Hay- wood trial opened today. It was announced that Juror No. 7 —H. F. Massecar—had been quite ill during the night. Judge Wood asked Mr. Massecar if he felt. able to pro- ceed today. Upon receiving an affirm- ative reply the Court informed the ju- rer that if at any time he felt it neces- sary the trial would be interrupted un- til he was in better physical condi- tion. . The prosecution asked the Court to» issue an order directing W. F. Davis, one of the keading witnesses for the defense, to remain within the jurisdic- tion, as he would be wanted wgain. The order was issued. now a farmer, -Imsurance Solicitor Testifies, Francis C. Clifford, a “fe insuranee solicitor of Sterling, Colo., was the first witness of the day. Clifford said he moved frum Scranton, Pa., to Den- ver in April, i905. He rented desk room in George A. Pettibone’s store in Den- ver, holding it from April until Novem- ber, 1906. The witness met Orchard under the name of Thomas Hovzan, Pettibone mak- ing the introduction. Orchard came around the store just as dozens of others did, according to the witness, who described the store as one big room. There was also an undivided cel- lar beneath. “Orchard told me one day that he was making ots of money selling hail insurance,”’ declared Clifford. “He then turned to Pettibone and asked him to cash a check. Pettibone looked at the check and said he did not have enough money. He offered- to give Orchard as much as he had. Orchard said he would take what Pettibone had and get the balance later. He Saw Orchard in 1905. “The next time I saw Orchard he told me he was going to Alaska. ‘This was in June, 196.’’ Clifford said he never saw a light in Pettibone’s cellar at night bul once— in October, 1906, T AUP), WES AGIA 7I\ > MIND NUS cee ee ae eee ee HOT ROW OVER WEDDING GIFT Bought Lamp Instead of | China. - Muller of 2709 North Twelfth who drives a moving van and runs a Market planned to attend the wedding Wednes- day night of his nephew, Harry Krale- mann and Miss Carrie Stieckie, but if he does he will have to wear a white marks of the vig- orous club of Policeman Britz, and all this because Muller objected to his wife's selection of a wedding present.

CO ARMY ‘OF BUGS ATTACKS PASSENGERS AND CLOGS Captain Stops’ Craft, Turns Out Lights‘ and Crew shovel «Away Dead.’ Hordes of willow’ bugs, attracted by the lights of the steamboat Liberty, at- tacked the~ boat as it’ was passing Eagle’s Nest Island Tuesday night on the return trip from Piasa Chautauqua to Alton. The onslaught was 80 eitiative that machinery could be freed of the. bugs, which had clogged it. Passengers .were at the. mercy of the creatures during the wait, and until all the lights were ex- tinguished there were screams and some tears among the sorely harassed young women: on board. The bugs are small and yellow, with long wings. They.are ephemeral, an} perish in the glare ofthe lights which they seek. There. was no sign of the bugs on the journey up the river, and the sudden at- tack on the return found the young peo- ple on the .upper decks enjoying the breeze. . Those nearest the search light suffered most,. but none escaped tho creatures, which buzzed and beat their way beneath collars and cuffs and into eyes and ears. Capt.-Lamott, going below,: found the dynamo and other machinery so full of the crushed bugs that‘it could hardly. be run. He ordered a stop for a general cleaning. Shortly afterward, to relieve ‘ passen.- rers, the lights on the pases deck were put out. The ‘boat reached Alton more than a lalf-hour late. Scoop shovels were used in removing the dead bugs from the low- er deck. @ Aequitted by Judge's Order. Judge Muench instructed the jury Wednesday to acquit Charles-H.

AS a result of a conference Wednes- day morning between Judee Moses Sale, Assistant Circuit Attorney Don Sommers and Dr. Harry Greensfelder, who was arrested Tuesday on the charge of having stolen a diamond Stud, the charge against Greensfelder was dismissed in the Court of General Sessions by Assistant Circuit Attor- ney Sommers, who drew up the com- plaint. Miss Pauline Blank, an employe in a Broadway candy store, stated that from a point in the street beneath the windows of Dr. Greensfelder she had seen the doctor take the stud out of the necktie of Charles Dingler. Dingler had brought a man from the candy store to tne office Saturday night to be treated for an injured hand and he removed his collar and tie when the fumes of chloroform which the doctor used threatened to overcome him. The reason for the dismissal was not made known. Dr. Greensfelder declared Wednes- day that his arrest was a case of ma- lieious persecution the cause of which he is unable to learn. ‘‘I was too busy with the patient to* know whether Dingler even had a diamond on when : Ww ag my office or not that night,” e sal PONY TANDEM SHIED AT FIRECRACKERS; WOMEN HURT Boy Made Shetlands Run and Miss Bryan and Mother.

HAS SCAR ON HIS LIP Admits He Was at Scene of the Crime Same Day, but Denies Charge.

A suspect arrested at Evansville, Ind., is due to arrive in St. Louis— late Wednesday afternoon for identification by 11-year-old Marcella Singer, whom he is accused of attacking 10 days ago in Forest Park. He is in charge of De- tective Murphy, who went to Evansville Tuesday night for him. The man went to Evansville, just after the crime was committed, and Acting Chief of Police Gillaspy expresses firm belief that he is guilty of it. The ‘tip’ to the poiice was given by Frank Green of 1531 Washington ave- nue, a painter who formerly employed the man under susficion. Green said that the evening of June 2, the Swun- day Marcella was attacked, the inan went home in excitement, packed his trunk and departed with his wife for IF 'vansville. Another Accuses Him, After the departure, Green toid the nolice, Lily, his 12-year-old daughter, made charges to him against the man. This strengthened the suspicion he nad niready enterteined, he said, and caused him to jnform the pelie. The man was living with his wife ifn Evansville, and consented when arrest- ed to return wthout requisition papers to st. Louls. The Evansville police did not know the specitic charge against him, and did not question him as to it, but the man told them he supposed Lily Green had caused his arrest. When Detective Murphy reached Ev- ansville the suspect admitted to him that he had been in Forest Park the afternoon of the crime, but denied that he had committed it. Scar on His Lip. The suspect has a scar on his. upper lip, which fits Marcetia’s description of her assailant, but he is an ojder man than she described and his hair is turn- ing gray instead of being black. She said her assailant was about 24 years old. The suspect is 4. The clothing he wore when he left St. Louis fits the girl’s description. Green told a Post-Dispatch reporter the man came to his house about 3:30 Pp. m. the Sunday of the attack on Marcella, apparently much excited, and prepared to leave St. Louis, giving as his reason that he had been dis- charged the day before. He apparent- ly had been drinking. tle did not tell Green where he had spent Sunday. ‘ine suspect wore a soft felt telescope hat, dark suit and tan shoes, as de- scribed by Marcella. The attack on the child was made while the park was crowded with Sun- day afternoon visitors, and many saw the man carrying the little girl in his arms. They supposed he was her par- ent, and paid little attention. Marcel- la’s brother, who was with her, was sent away on a fictitious errand. The man’s offense is legally punishable with death. CONFESSED, BUT JURY WOULD NOT INDICT HIM FOR CRIME Henry Becker Thought to Have Been Scared Into Acknowledg- ing Murder of Girl. (BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.) NEW YORK, July 3.~After a week's investigation, the Queens County grand jury refused to indict Henry Becker for the murder of l5-year-old Amelia Staffeldt of Flushing. Becker was ar- raigned in Flushing this morning and discharged. The police are :.0w working on new clues and are trying to find the source of a number of “Black Hand’’ letters received by Mrs. George Simonson, the chief witness against Becker. The police had settled on Becker as the murderer. He is about 22 years old and did odd jobs in the neighborhood where the girl was killed while picking dandelions Wednesday afternoon, May 22. Becker was arrested near the scene of the murder the day following. It was not until after he had been put through “the third degree” several times that Becker made a confession and then he startea in to confess to any and everybody who happened to ask him about the crime. The grand jury, it is stated, believed Becker was scared into making the confession.

LOLNAY RAPS UTMER ARTISTS | Says Finis be Who Can't Rouse Emotion Ought to Start Grocery Stores.

A good-sized crowd trudged. patiently up Art Hill to the Museum in Forest Park Tuesday afternoon, to hear M:. Julian Zolnay’s last lecture of the sea- son. He talked on the water color pic- tures in gallery 30. In his preliminary talk, Mr. Ear, emphasized the fact that a picture’s worth is determined by the emotion it produces in the viewer. He said: “The artist who cannot arouse in you some kind of emotion is a failure, and would better start a grocery stofe and sell canned beans.” Adam Emory Albright’s “In the Firea- light’’ is considered to be the best thing in the room, even though, as he said, the artist has not been true to his medi- um. The picture has been treated more as an oj] than a water color, but is nevertheless very effective. “Old Groote Kirk,’’ by F. Hopkinson Smith, was highly praised by Mr. Zol- nay. Composition, coloring, the enttre handling of the subject, were commend4- ed, although the body coloring is some- what heavy. Different Kinds of Truth. E. Loyal Field’s “A September Day”’ was characteri as a mere study— noticeably unfinished. The subject is well handled, however, and the picture shows excellent qualities, even in its un- finished state. Rhoda Holmes Nicoll’s “Sunset on the Hiarbor’’ is an excellent demonstration of Mr. Zolnay’s theory of ‘general truth,”” as opposed to “literal truth.’ She has indicated the grass and the ar- cLitecture of the building in the fore- sround, rather than drawing each blade and shingle, and the effect is pleasing in the extreme. A. T. Bircher is a painter of the old Hudson River School, the oldest schoo! in America. His ° ‘Gathering Storm, Bai- ley’s Island,’’ was highly praised by Mr. Zolnay. Colin Campbell Cooper’s “Antwerp, Evening,” -was named as the second best picture in the gallery. In this lit- tle scene, the artist has seen a com- monplace subject in a beautiful light, and has portrayed its effect upon him- self regardless of the light in which it might appear to one not blessed with a sense of the poetical. The Coldest Picture. “This is the coldest thing I ever saw.” said Mr. Zolnay, as he came to Childe Hassam’s ‘‘Mackerel Fleet.”” “An able man like Hassam woutd not paint a thing like that without an object, but it is a picture that would keep me eter- nally shivering. Of course, that is a matter of temperament—but the picture is absolutely remarkable for its cold- ness. Mr. Zolnay’s criticisms are bright, snappy and interesting. sie has the cour- age of his convictions, and does not hesitate to express them, even in the face of dissenting looks, and the knowl- edge that he will be called to account for them in the informal chats which follow his lectures. Everyone expressed deep regret that Tuesday’s talk wag his last one this season, for they have be- come exceedingly popular, and have been well attended. Among those who were present at yesterday’s talk were: Gray and guest, Miss Nancy Coonsman, Mrs. George J. Zolnay,,. Mrs. James Bull, Mrs. Crabtree, Mrs, Edward Wangelin and guest, Mrs. P. J. Taomey and two guests, Mrs. W. E. Graves and guest, Miss Fannie C. Bonsack, Miss MeMahan, Mrs. W. B. Anderson, Mrs. M. B. Smith, Mrs. Willard Bartlett, Mrs. Richard Shelton, Mrs. W. B. Wes- ton.

When he started west on an Olive strect car they said they were going that way, too, and would ride out with him. At Grand avenue Watson left the ear, and his new friends followed.

A suspect arrested at Evansville, Ind., is due to arrive in St. Louis late Wednesday afternoon for identification by 11-year-old Marcella Singer, whom he Ms accused of attacking 10 days ago in Forest Park. He is in charge of De- tective Murphy, who went to Evansville Tuesday night for him. The man went to Evansville, just after the crime was committed, and Acting Chief of Police Gillaspy expresses firm belief that he is guilty of it. The “tip” to the police was given by Frank Green of 1531 Washington ave- nue, a painter who formerly employed the man under suspicion. Green said that the evening of June 2, the Swun- day Marcella was attacked, the :nan went home in excitement, packed his trunk and departed with his wife for Fivansville.

A good-sized crowd trudged patiently up Art Hill to the Museum in Ferest Park Tuesday afternoon, to hear M:. Julian Zolnay’s last lecture of the sea- son. He talked on the water color pic- tures in gallery 30. | In his preliminary talk, Mr. Zolnay emphasized the fact that a picture's worth is determined by the emotion it produces in the viewer. He said: “The artist who cannot arouse in you some kind of emotion is a failure, and would better start * grocery store and sell canned beans,’ Adam Emory Albright’s “In the Fire- light” is considered to be the best thing | in the room, even though, as he said, the artist has not been true to his medi- um.

She said her assailant was about 24 years old. The suspect is 4. The clothing he wore when he left St. Louis fits the girl’s description.

Testifies at Wife’s Divorce Suit That Her Jealousy Caused Trouble.

George William Raney’s married life has not been happy, despite the fact that Mrs. Virginia C. Raney was a splendid provider, because she accused him of flirting with other women. H told Judge McDonald that this was the - cause of all the trouble between them. 3 Mrs. Raney was denied a divorce. Raney was brought into court on a subpena. Before he took the stand the Judge recalled Mrs. Raney. Under his questioning, she admitted that she had been married three times before she married Raney. Reverting. to her statement the day before that she was past 56 he asked her if she was 57. She said that she was also past 57. Forced to be specific, she said she was 59. Husband is Fifty. Raney, smooth-faced, smartly dressed in a gray suit and a white waistcoat, told the Judge that he would be 51 in the fall. He did not mention specifically what fall he meant. : Judge McDonald asked him if he had trouble with his wife on their wedding trip. ‘‘There was trouble all the time, Judge, he said sadly. The Judge wanted to know who start- ed it and he said: “I’m sure not me.” “What caused the trouble on your wedding trip?’ “She accused me of flirting with other women.” Asked if he swore at her, he said: “I #uppose I said a good many things to her.”’ Attorney McIntyre, representing Mrs. Raney, wanted to know if she was not always kind and affectionate, and al- ways ready to kiss him when he left the house and when he returned. Helped With House Work. “If you had seen her sometimes when I came home from the office,”’ he said, “you wouldnt’ think s6:"" He said Mrs. Raney did the cooking, but he helped, and he also did some of the sweeping and the making of the beds. In answer to a suggestion that his married life had not been happy, he said, “‘Not a bit, sir.’’ Mr. McIntyre asked him if he wasn’t a very popular man in Monroe City be- fore he married Mrs. Raney. He ad- mitted that he was. "You were very popular with the sin- gie ladies, weren't you?” the lawyer asked. ‘With everybody, sir.”’ “You were ore of the most popu- lar men in Northeast Missouri, weren't you?” Raney manifested diffidence, but did not deny it. He expressed a positive conviction that he and Mrs. Raney would not be able to live happily together. : Husband is Recalled. After Judge McDonald had announced that he would dismiss Mrs. Raney’s witl. Attorney McIntyre called his at- tention to the fact that she also asked to have her title declared to notes payable to herself and her hus- d, representing loans made to his relatives, and the Judge gave orders to have Raney, who had left the Court- morning to be questioned about the notes. Raney admitted to Judge McDonald _ Wednesday that the money loaned to _ his relatives was obtained from his wife, but Judge McDonald held that - tmasmuch as he had refused a divorce to Mrs. Raney, he could not make ‘any order regarding the notes. _ fhe marriage of Raney, who was a @rug clerk in Monroe City, and Mrs. Virginia C., James two years ago at- tracted a great deal of attention be- cause of the understood discrepancy in the ages of the couple. _ Raney was supposed to be only 25 ‘then, His testimony that he was to be 51 in the fall caused surprise.

a ww CABUUSE CLIMBS UNIU LOCOMOTIVE Collision of Southern Railway Fréight Trains at Belleville Blocks the Road.

A caboose jumped on top of a huge freight engine on the Southern Railroad at the Short street crossing in Belle- ville when two freight trains collided Tuesday. Train No. 30, a freight, was pulling out of St. Louis when it ran into the rear of an engine pulling a portion of extra No. 62 out of the siding that leads to the Green Mount coal mine. The crews of both trains jumped and escaped injury. The engine of train No. 62 was stopped with such suddenness that the to which it was coupled was partially telescoped and slid on top of the huge engine. No one was in the caboose. Traffic was delayed several hours. caboose

Wife Angry at First and Had Him Arrested. Mrs. Gertrude Cassidy was called be- fore Judge Taylor of the Court of Crim- inal Correction Wednesday to tell what her husband, James H. Cassidy, owner of the De todiamont Planing Co., did to her May 27 last. Mrs. Cassidy tried to cover the incident with ‘‘family dif- ferences.’’ She finally admitted that her husband slapped her with his hand. Cassidy's attorney brought out that Cassidy and his wife had a quarrel at their home, 5014 Delmar boulevard. Mrs. Cassidy went to the home of her sis- ter, Mrs. Julia Vogler of 4740 Labadie avenue. The sisters and Miss Pear! Mc- Farland of 909 Walton avenue returned to storm the Cassidy home. Cassidy let his wife in, but locked the door on his sister-in-law. Mrs. Cassidy let her in. The result was Cassidy’s ar- rest on a charge of assault and bat- tery. Mrs. Cassidy wished the prosecu- tion dropped and Judge Taylor dis- charged Cassidy.

Object of the Plan Was to Inspect Garbage Reduction Plants in the East. Even the lobbying and prompting of Councilmen by the Speaker of the House of Delegates, Isaac Conran failed to save from quietus at the hands of the City Council the bH1l appropriating $2500 for eight assemblymen’s junket to New Bedford, Mass., ‘and other interesting points. Now Councilmen who opposed the measure are expecting reprisal by the House, either in the form of a recon- sideration of the resotution fixing ad- journment of the Municipal Assembly, or hostility to bills fathered by those who cast negative votes at Tuesday's meeting. Councilman Norvell insured the bill's defeat by inquiring the need of $250Qq for expenses for the trip when his fare, hotel charges and other items aggre- gated only $100 on a recent visit of a week in Boston. He said that $2000 of the public funds would be wasted on the junket. A for- mer committee bent on the same mis- sion, Councilman Norvell said, had ac- complished nothing and then submitted a report that was a copy, verbatim, of the Civic League's recommendations touching a _ reduction plant. Favored by Linde, Councilman Linde spoke earnestly sfor the jaunt and Councilman Thomson fee- bly seconded him. Members of the Board of Public Jim- provements favored the committee’; !n- spection of plants in other cities, Mr. Line said, because most of those who wanted to study the subject had never seen a reduction works. When the vote was taken, following Mr. Linde's eloquence, supporters of the bill thought President Forman would be with them. It was six for and two against the measure when President Forman’s Name was called. He upset calculations by registering himself in the negative. ‘The bill was put to death and is now. beyond hope of resurrection by any kind of parliamentary maneu- vers. The hill had several narrow escapes before Tuesday. A week gq it was revived and referred to the Committee on Ways and Means. That action was taken by the House as indicating a chance of passing it. On the strength uf the seeming change of front by the Council the House Friday night adopt- ed a concurrent resolution by which the Municipal Assembly was to have adjourned July 16 for two morths, after having once blocked a recess because of the Council's refusal to legislate for the junket. It is now expected that the llouse will reverse itself and keep the Council working for the greater part of the summer.

Next week, commencing with the mat- inee Sunday an elaborate portrayal of ‘“‘Robert Emmet’ will be given. This play, which deals with historic and ro- mantic episodes in the career of the Irish martyr, is exciting from start to finish. Mr. Frank La Rue will play the titular role. Miss Ethel Fuller will appear as his loyal and lovable sweet- heart, Sarah Curran. In the annex promenade of the Heights a special band concert has been arranged for the Fourth of July. Prof. Franks band will render a special] se- lection of American patriotic numbers. Vivid scenic effects will be used at the afternoon concert and at night brilliant illuminations will accompany the num- bers. Arthur Demming, one of the foremost blackface comedians on the stage, has been engaged as the headliner on next week’s bill at Mannion’s Park. Mr. Demming is a great favorite here, hav- ing appeared at the head of his own company at nearly every playhouse and summer theater. Mr. Demming always has a lot of-local color in his songs and stories and makes a big hit.

especial praise for the merit of their presentation. Miss Elizabeth Cooney, a handsome | young woman, sang two songs very | acceptably and her rich dramatic so-'! prano voice was much admired by the: audience. Miss Cooney has a charm- ing stage presence and was dressed in a gown of black net. Her beauty at- tracted much attention. Dollie Bremser, a clever little sou- brette who has a delightful voice, sang two pretty topical songs. One in which she directed the words to the contest judges sitting in the box was received with enthuSiasm. Of the double turns the black-face act presented by Brent and Brent was well liked. The comedy end of the team has a true negro dialect and in the dialogue of their presentation they won much applause. The “straight man has a voice of ~purity and strength, which he used to excellent advantage in the closing song of the presentation. Clark and Ambach, eccentric comed- ians, caused no end of laughter. Their comedy was legitimate and won much applause. Manager Pat Mannion is well pleased with the showing made on the first night of the tournament. He hopes to present many surprises dur- ing the course of the contest.

It is expected that the entry list this year will be larger than ever because of the fact that the Centrals will be well represent- ed this year, whereas last season the club did not have a crew in the regatta at the lake. The Century Boat Club, which has not sent crews, with the ex- ception of an occasional double, to the regatta for several years, is also plan- ning to make a good showing this sea- son.

Six races are scheduled for this aft- ernoon and evening up to 9:30 p.

will be started. All morning the racing machines and drivers have been out at the Fair Grounds reeling off mile after mile, testing their machines, personal skill’: and the track. Out in the West End last night the sound of the auto- mobiles, out for their final training spins on the city streets, sounded like the Fourth of July. With mufflers cut touring cars or runabouts sounded iike a cannon. Each machine was covered by three or four mechanics in greasy overalls, tightening a gear here, ad- justing coils and listening for every sound of the engine to detect the slignt- est miss or defect. . After an all-night vigil the cars, drivers and mechanics slowly filed in, one after another, in the Fair Grounds, fnd everything was in readiness. Eurly risers noted the dusty, grimy men and machines that had all night been pre- paring for the event of the year in the local automobile year. Everything is ready. The men have done all they can.

The be lighted as soon as it until the time of the starting time of the big event. The 24-hour racers will plunge and snort around the track all night, all tomorrow, and it will not be until almost the time that the last rocket on the Fourth of July celebration is cleav- ing the sky that the race will be fin- ished. Each car will have at least two drivers and some more. What will probably be the feature race of this afternoon will be the 10-mile race between D. R. Calhoun’s high-powered Packard runabout driven by Fred Grin- ham, and J. C. Van Blarcom’s eight- cylinder Franklin runabout, with Will Kersten at the steering wheel. The race will be practically for the local cham- pionship cars and chauffeurs. For eel two years now Grinham, former bicycle rider, has cleaned up in every local race in which he has entered with Mr. Cal- houn’s machine. The Franklin machine has almost unlimited power, and if noth- ing goes wrong it will be a terrific con- test, as Kersten has promised to let his machine out to the limit if necessary to win, which means that he is bound to make miles in less than one-a-min- ute clip or go through the fence. The next race will be in the class for runabouts listed at $3000 or over. These are the long, low greyhounds which are all the rage in the automobile this year. Grinham in Mr. Calhoun’s machine is in here. Ollie Savin and Will Lohse, who are both like Grinham, professional drivers, will make things hum, while Harry Turner in a_ yellow-and-blue Stearns which has never yet been let out to its Mmit, will be a factor, as Frlevicndd is willing to take as many chances with the Grim Re: aper as any- body when it comes at top speed. to taking a turn

N OUR SE BEING LITTLE STORIES /OF PEOPLE IN THE SPORT WORLD.

PRESIDENT EBBETS is trying hard to gec Storke, the utility infielder of the Pittsburg club, for his team. Barney Dreyfuss is anxious to let Storke return to the Baltimore team of the Eastern League, but Ebbetts says he is needed just as badly by the Brooklyn club as the Orioles. GIBSON of the Pirates says he will not be found wearing shin pads at any time during his career. ‘“‘When I’ve got to put my- self in armor to play ball,” he de- clared here Sunday, “I'll quit the game.’’ CATCHER THERE was < time early in the season when Cincinnati would have taken Otis Clymer off the hands of the Pittsburg club. But when the last waivers were asked on him both President Herrmann and Manager Hanlon were willing to see him hike out of the Nationa: League. MIKE LYNUH, the old Brown favorite, who was released unconditionally by Manager Clarke of the Pittsburg Na- tionals last week, has signed a con- tract to pitch for the New York Giants. A BOSTON critic says that Pitcher Hogg of the Yankees behaved in a childish manner the other day. He couldn't possibly mean that Hogeg’s pitching reminded him of corner-lot baseball? JONES of the Chicago White Sox, says the man who grips his bat by the end and swings hard on the “spit- ball’’ has scarcely a chance on earth. It is the batters that take a short, quick chop that connect with it. “When I see a slugger dig his toes in to take an awful swing I feel safe, but when he grips his bat up high and takes a quick poke, then I know there is a chance of trouble,” said Jones. - —_— -~ BARNEY DREYFUSS, the Pittsburg magnate, plans an innovation in base- ball circles. Barney is going to send a doctor’s bill to “Kid” Gleason be- cause the latter spiked Hans Wagner in a game between the Pirates anc Philadelphias. Dreyfus says that in addition to insisting that Gleason pay the bill, he will complain to President Pulliam regarding Gleason's action in interfering with base runners.

LEANDERS | WON AT HENLEY WITH EASE HENLEY, England, July 3~—The Leander crew, as anticipated, won an easy victory over the London Rowing Club todays in the first heat for the grand challenge cup. The former took the lead from the start and paddled across the finish line in T min. 38 sec. The British oarsmen are relying on the Leanders to win back the grand challenge cup which was captured by the Belgians last year. The crew con- tains seven other Cambridge oarsmen and is stroked by Stuart, who wag stroke when Cambridge defeated Har.

bat, made three more safe hits in yesterday’s game. If Bates was play- ing on the Brookiyn grounds all sea- son he would lead the league, as he hits the ball for keeps over there. CHICAGO has not yet recovered from the shock of seeing Mike Kahoe sent in to bat for Jimmy Sheckard—and making a-hit, too. It’s a wise man- ager who can dope out Kahoe a bet- ter man than Sheckard in a pinch. MANY ENTRIES FOR SCOTTISH GAMES Owing to the track and field condi- tions which will attend the Scottish Clans’ meet to be held at Normandie Park Thursday afternoon, any attempt to pick the winners in the respective events Is more or less farcical. The track is a mere semblance of a dirt path, scarcely 10 feet In width, dnd the turns are for the most part imag- inary. Hence, with the big fields that are entered in all of the races stringing around the oval, one can see that the race will not necessarily be to the fleet- est, but the strongest will hold a mighty good chance of winning more than the weight events. In the distance races and, in fact, for every distance over 100 yards, the scratch man stands very little likelihood of winning. He may eatch his field very easily, but to pick his way through it will rival the pro- verbial task of creeping through a needle’s eye.

_— = = SS THE TRACKMEN’S CHARGES. = Discussing the charges filed by the National * Union of Railway Trackmen that the tracks and | Yoadheds of the Missouri Pacific Railroad are not = -. in good condition, General Manager Sullivan of vie the Missouri Pacific dismisses the gharges rather ®’ contemptuously on the ground that the track- 1, men are not working to improve the condition » Of the tracks, but to compel the railroad to com- ’» Ply with the demanas of their union. i ‘These charges cannot be dismissed on this or | @ny other ground except the proof that they are 4, whtrue, or, if true, with demonstration that the eo” railroad has put its tracks in good condition. The _ point at issue is not the motive of the men who * are submitting the evidence to the Board of Rail- | Ce road Commissioners, but the evidence which they- _ submit. The jssue is not the source from which = the charges emanate, but the facts. The cam- am paign is not against the Missouri Pacific Railroai alone; complaints are made concerning nearly ) every railroad in the United States. The com- ' plaints are accompanied by reports of trackmen _. who have examined the tracks and the roadbeds. ' Im the-case of the Missouri Pacific pictures are “presented, and it is the expectation of the track- "men that actual photographs-of the road will be _ Ypresented in the case of every road against which i ‘they file charges. If the conditions charged by "the trackmen exist, their charge that the road- '” Beds are in this condition on account of lack of | trackmen and inspectors is vital. The neglected failway is a menace to the public. 4 There is no subject of greater importance to 7 the public than that relating to the causes of ac- ' eidents. .The report of accidents recently submit- ted by the Interstate Commerce Commission is appalling. During the year 1906, 4200 people were ‘Killed in railroad accidents in the United States, a Gaity~average of more than 11. This whqesale aughter must be stopped. The causes of acci- * Gents must be discovered and eliminat _> The Post-Dispatch has taken up-this @M&tter and e ; § publishing the evidence submitted by t ack- "men as a possible valuable contribution to the ‘et * ‘s £ fon of the causes of railroad accidents. The? : a8 Hiect should be thoroughly investigated by | State Railroad Commissioners and by the Inter- ) sstate.Commerce Commission. If the roadbeds ‘have been neglected, if repair forces are insuffict- Pent, these conditions must be rectified as soon as pasible. It is not sufficient for the railroad man- ers to aseert their responsibility. They must ive up to their responsibility. They must stop e killing. » A i i se

- - "_‘ THE CONTRACT GRAFTER. ‘When 8t. Louis property owners, against whom AS ae ie * 2 e ease ¢ Cost of paving a street is assessed in special axt s find fraud and grafting going on in the york, it is their duty to themselves and still more p the city to prosecute the fraud. ‘The system of street improvement, as it now op- fates through ordinance, custom and court decis- on, is an inheritance from an era when grafting as the main object of politics with those who lade politics a profession in &t. Louis and hoped br sudden wealth through “rake-offs” of differ- it kinds. City contracts and especially contracts r street m ement, gave opportunities for rake-a owners of every city in which it prevails, not only the great burden of paying legitimate costs, but also the burden of protecting the city against frauds. If the home owners of Southwest St. Louis, or eny other part of the city, find that fraud and grafting are going on in public work which is being done for the city at their cost, they ought to count only as cumulative evidence of guilt, all propositions to compromise. The contractor who is operating under the po- lice power of the city, belongs as much to the city system of public utilities as if he had been elected to his place by the free consent of those from whom the police power of the city forces his revenve. When under such a system he at- tempts fraud, a way ought to be found to make an example of him which will show other gratt- ers what “municipal improvement” means when it has an honest purpose to enforce it. i ser. vrTvrTlLU.Y The decision of the State Supreme Court. de- claring the free bridge bond issue valid opens the way for the building of the municipal bridge. There should be no delay in the necessary steps to be taken by the Municipal Assembly. The fact there are joint terminals in St. Louis simplifies the free bridge problem, because they afford a complete system of terminals for immediate use to any railroad desiring to enter St. Louis over the municipal bridge. The perfecting of these terminals under conditions which will eliminate

all monopoly features and make them open to all railroads on fair terms will place at the com- mand of the municipal bridge unequaled terminal facilities. No discrimination and the open gate to all railroads is the St. Louis slogan. ba Lo > i ee THE SPY SYSTEM. The most important exposure of corrupt and dangerous methods made in the trial of the Steunenberg murder case at Boise City is that of the spy system as it has been carried to its logical extreme. In this logical extreme of its fraud, every imag- inable crime may result from it’ or be promoted by it. | It is shown at Boise City that the mine owners had their spies acting as Officials of the unions, using all fraudulent devices known to the spy system to entrap them in crime if not into it. It is also shown that the unions themselves, taught by this example, had their own agents at the headquarters of the central spy bureau, acting as secretary for the manager in chief of all the spies and taking copies of documents and letters, which | promised to be of future use in this game of co- ercive fraud, in which, as this cvidence exposes it, it was the purpose of both sides to take every possible fraudulent advantage of each other. In the moral anarchy thus resulting, when Orchards are made prominent as the type result- ing from the system, the difficulty in reaching 4 conclusion on the details of the evidence is the inevitable difficulty of believing on oath either the mine manager or the union manager who has made systematic fraud a method of reaching re- sults. There is no difficulty, however, in reaching the conclusion that such a system itself condemns all who are guilty of it. It means for them, re- gardless of standing, of motive, or of anything else whatever, a loss of moral sense which, in its own final logic, means ‘‘moral idiocy.’”’ As a prod- uct of the spy system, Orchard is explained as he never could be otherwise. He is a monster of crime, but the organized system of professional spies is itself criminally monstrous. ,

Pray tell us, is it A hollow phrase, or does it clearly Mean to say there is, or nearly, Such a thing as loving merely? Now, Mr. Shonts, -when you were young— You were once, were you not?— And every glance your heart’s bell rung, Was your love piping hot? Or did you love the lady, queerly, That way, as you call it, merely— O, Mr. Shonts, or was it dearly? And in that time ere you were wed, Were you less fond than wise, And did you look, O way ahead? Or did the lady’s eyes, Those soul-deep orbs of purest blue, Then somewhat soft for love of you, Er-r, constitute your utmost view? O, pray go to, dear Mr. Shonts, There’s just one kind of love— The kind which, meeting with response. Transports us all above To tread the upper air inclined The hot-and-headlong, gambling kind.

He says the Illinois cigarette law is an outrage, and was out on the town square last night smoking some and daring the cops to arrest him. Washington, July 2.—Secretary Taft removed himself from the list of presi- dential possibilities today when he de- clared himself against fireworks and lockjiaw on the Fourth of July. Lincoln, July 2—Mr. Bryan has finally omerged from the presidential timber. While arguing with a neighbor across his fence last night he was heard by no less than fifteen persons to say ‘“‘dam- mit.” The entire community is indig- nant.

THE FALL OF FAIRBANKS Written Especially for the Post-Dispatch By Clark McAdams. S Fairbanks not a candidate? That so? I hadn’t heard it. | A cocktail placed by Teddy’s plate? His boom—it has deferred it? The country’s mad, no doubt of it—knows even of the cherry? And poor Fairbanks is out of it? Why, that’s extraordinary, Now, what was Charlie thinking of, that Bill Taft’s boom should fatten The while that Ted was drinking of this mischievous Manhattan? Good heavens, but he was a dupe thus openly to serve it! Why did he not dish it as soup, so no one would observe it? And he a Methodist! It is some evil spirit drowsed him, Or else to just have heard the fizz would instantly have roused him, Jehosophat, one would not think his boom were so accursed he Had served the one forbidden drink! Was Theodore so thirsty? He should have stuck to buttermilk. Were he not quite so green he Had known there’s danger for his ilk in one wee dry Martini. *T was certain he’d be called for it and fiercely asked about it, And Teddy, though he bawled for it, had better gone without it. And even after he had dared to do a thing so risky As order that the guests be fared with each a glass of whisky, There was no need to be so rash, so downright arbitrary, So plumb foolhardy and so brash as to have served the cherry. 6, Charlie, Charlie! what a boom is so soon epitaphed! And how Bil! Taft upon your doom has long and loudly laughed! And how the crowds to face you now will jolly you to death With laughing claims to smell, somehow, Manhattans on your breath! Poor Charles! And what a chance, egad, you had to win the wreath— The same that once Esopus had to beat that set of teeth! Too bad, too bad, thus cast abaft by Fate’s harsh, cruel dictum— Or, hold! Perhaps of Ted and Taft conspiracy the victim!

a A Girls Employment. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I am a business woman, bel - ployed by one of the large any ueede stores as a saleswoman and department manager at a salary of $40 week, and have a young niece just grad- uated from High School, who will be compelled to work for her living. Hav- ing & great deal of influence where I’m employed I wanted her to be a saleswoman, as I deem it well paid work. She is an attractive girl, a very good conversationalist, and I am sure would make a success. She Ifkes the work as far as she can see, but says the a she went with would boy- cott her if she were a saleswoman. A dentist friend of mine offered her a position at $1 a day, to take care of his office, meet his patients, hand him his instruments, etc., and she seems to think better of it because this is a more private business (in other words, that her old associates would not be so liable to see her), that she would like it better. I thimk it equivalent to being a maid, or servant, honorable work, but ought to be left for one with less education. I have suggest ws or school teaching. She thinks she would like teaching, but is afraid she woulé have to wait too long for‘ a position. She says the teachers do not think much of stenographers, as they say any little eighth-grade pupil can be a stenographer. e has no ability for dressmaking or millinery, and if she had I’m afraid the teachers would look down on her. one please explain to me what differ- ence it makes what one does if they receive payment for it, whether they are servant, maid, music teacher, sales- woman, ee er, cook, laundress, milliner, dressmaker, bookkeeper, v- erness or school teacher—they are help just ths same, working for a living or they would not do it; also some one tell me what they would a girl 17 to do?

Readers of the Post-Dispath ave Trying

to Solve Problem in Arithmetic Which

You Will Find Simple.

: EADERS of the Post-Dispatch disagree over the following | problem which first appeared on this page Monday; it seems very simple: A man wishes to take a houseboat from St. Louis to Alton, a distance which we will call 36 miles. He rows the boat 12 miles each day. While he sleeps at night it drifts back 9 miles; how long will it take him to reach Alton. Write your answer to the Puzzle Editor, Post-Dispatch. Five and a Quartér Days. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. If he wouldn't drift {t would take him three days, but he drifted nine miles each night or 27 miles, losing two and one-quarter days; therefore it would ‘take him the sum of three days and two and one-quarter days or five and one- quarter days. PAUL B. ZATLIN. From a Deaf Mute. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. It will take 12 days for him to reach Alton from st. Louis; 12 miles each day, nine miles back, three miles; three into % miles, 12 days. Answer. MRS. ARC — GnENZEBACH, 403A Blase avenue. Nine Days, Ehf To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. This is e@Sier than the deer problem. It takes the man nine days to reach Alton. The first day he rows 12 miles and drifts back nine miles, making three miles the first us hours. In eight days he has gone 24 miles and on the ninth day 12 Yniles,- reaching the landing at Alton and making 86 miles in all. LUCILE WOLFF, 4105 West Pine boulevard. Think This Is Right? To-the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I have solved the puzzle about the man going to Alton by boat. 12 miles he traveled in one day. 9 miles he drifted back at night. 8 miles he gained in 1 day and 1 night. 3 miles—36 miles— 12 times or 12 days J 12 nights it takes the man to travel to Alton. CHARLES SAICKMANN, 4178 Neosho street. Oh, Very Easy. ' To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. In regard to your problem about the man rowing from St. Louis to Alton is rows 12 miles in one day and drifts back 9 miles while he sleeps at night, the. answer will be 12 days. To get to Alton I will show you the very time worked— 12 miles the man rows in 1 day. 9 miles the man drifts back. 1 day,3—36 miles is the distance. 12 days for the trip. G. H. SIEPERT, 2406. North Broadway. Says It Is 12 Daya, To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. If the man rows his houseboat 12 miles each day, he would cover the distance in three days. But_he slips back nine miles every night, then it would be three miles he rowg every day. If he covers three miled in one day, he’ll cover one-third of 36 miles 12 times, or days. So he’ll cover the distance in 12 days. AR. DE S&., Wainwright Bldg. Ten and a Haif Days. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The man in the boat for Alton makes 80 miles in 10 days. In one-half day more he makes the additional six miles. It takes him 10% days to reach Alton. BERTRAM SCHNAPPER. -_-- = Is She Right? To the Editor ot the Post-Dispatch. The way I figure out your boat prob- lam is as follows: If he made the journey without stop- ping it would take him three days. Each night he drifted back nine miles. He would have to make up the nine miles each day, so that he would only gain ~

very easy.’ If he rows 12 miles one ‘day and drifts back at night nine miles, which leaves three miles a day he rows, in 36 miles he rows 12 days. Answer, 12 days. WILLIE KATZ, 2294 Biddle. How It Looks to Him. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I will write you the answer to that puzzle. A man rows a boathouse at a distance of 36 miles to Alton and he

three rmhiles a day. At that rate it would take him just 12 days. Am I right? DOROTHY LEWIS. An East St. Louis Answer. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. This is the problem I think I solved right: 12 miles he travels per day. 9 miles he lost by sleep per day. 3 miles he travels. 86 miles is the distance. 12 miles take off after he gets to Alton. — 24 miles for him to travel. 3 miles|24 miles|8 times, or days. HARRY FITTER, East St. Louis.

WHAT DID YOUR BABY SAY?

WN reading the bright sayings of the ‘ babies, I cannot quite let one child's sweetness g0 by without mention. Idttle Robbie had lived in this wicked ‘gworid three whole years, but during that - time had never lost the gentleness which made us rank him amongst the heavenly _.gherubim. One evening, shortly after the arrival of a little sister, he was _ @tanding before the nursery fire, talking ‘ with his grandfather, and the conversa- tion naturally turned on the newcomer. Grandpa, thinking to quiz him, said: “Of - course, the little girl will be the pet now. I shall buy her a farm. What have you ' to say to that, sir?” Bobbie looked up with smiling eyes, then going over to _ the cradle where the little one lay sleep- ng, he touched her soft cheek with his “Nttle hand. “Grandpa,” he said, grave- ly, “I-Want you to do the best you kin for her.” Again his generosity was put ‘to the supreme test. “Everybody will . love her best,” said grandpa. But this time the blue eyes looked up angrily. “Oh, no! I love her best myself!” cried — Mittle Robbie, snuggling closer to his sis- JULIET T. CUNNINGHAM, 5867 Page boulevard.

He began to put the polish on the stove, - but he got most of it.on his face.

Bratton’s home on the cold, gray dawn of the morning after the great East St. Louis charity carnival is conclusive proof that the 5900 fun-loving residents who attended Tuesday night’s show made a;circujt of the grounds and missed nothing on their aniusement- Feeking rounds. “There was nothing left at the bovths two hours after the carnival opened except what appeared to be the scat- tered dobris left by a good-natured cy- Clone. The crowd scemed determined to buy half of the earth, if necessary, if it had been on sale in the aid of chari- ty. It is estimnated that charitable Mast St. Louisans were separated from about $100 at the carnival—anc they got tneir money’s worth. The carnival was for the benefit of the Henrietta Hospital. A sea of sum bonnets prancing around the Pike and handsome grounds devo- rated, with Oriental lanterns and cra- peries. and. clusters of brilliant électric lights, formed a uniquc setting for the Sreatest carnival East St. Louis has ever had. As the donkey passenger gervice hurried about the grourds with- the gun bonnet brigade moved aside and epurred the dadonkeys to a faster scred- ule. All Were Sunbonnets. he sunbonnets were worn by men, os and children indtscriminately. lIn-fact, the committee at the entrance suw to it that all passed the sunbon- ret booth as they entered the grounds. All sizes, shapes and colors were worn, from the old-fashioned red calico bon- . Het to the gauzy little head covering of tissue paper, which much like a straw- to a threshing ma- back of the heads chine. When the bonnet supply ran out the @vertiow crowd made a rush for the - Japanese lantern booth and rigged up a heautiful substitute from the multi-col- Not to be out- over the rope. of the first booth at the entrance. Soon evch was fitted out in a huge sunbonnet, a bag of peanuts, toy whistle, red balloun, feath- er duster, noise-producing weuirler, a civbell—and the fun was on. L. C. Haynes looked charming in his neat peek-a-boo bonnet, and with J. J. Reader, who was armed with one of the red gingham kind and reld a cowbell in one hand and a rattle Jn the other, guarded the entrance to see that all comers had a chance to choose their style from the sunbonnet Booth. ’ No Chance of Bacape. elif a straggier ran their battery and get past in safety, E. 8. Coddington, Wearing. a bewitching little headpiece, shaped somewhat like a cabbage leaf, stood guard a few feet away and diplo- matically ‘anded the stragglers at the bonnet counter. The general round-:p man for those who escaped the advance sunbonnet brigade, John S. Bratton, wearing a cute creation in pink on the side of his head, sounded a note of warning, and escape was impossible. Taul W. Abt and Thomas L. Fekete, the long and shert combination of sunbonnet wear- érs, who donned twin bonnets, helped the donkeys through the crowd. The donkeys were continually, but good- raturedly in trouble with the crowd. ‘The color scheme of the carnival giounds was red, white and blue, mixed with pink, green, yellow, brown and erimson, outliring the white tents and gaudily colored circus wagons. The tea garden, with its Criental | pettings, was crowded at all times and ded popularity with the gypsy vil- | presided over by society wor'nen in gypey garb busily telling fortunes.. 4 Sold Out im a Hurry, which prize a mateh to a steam engine, was early in the game and sold ing in sight.

FOREIGN PRICES STRONG Unfavorable Crop Reports From This Country and Abroad Were Plentiful. yw Local wheat, after a session of rather light trading, closed slightly higher for the day. July option closed \%c higher at 94%c bid, September, in which the bulk of the trading was done, 4c higher at 96%c, and December %@%c higher at 99% @997c. Liverpool cables closed equal to 1%c to 24c higher on spot wheat and 1d higher on the futures. Paris closed %c to 3c ,higher on wheat and 1% to 2%c higher on | flour. Antwerp wheat closed steady. to Sac higher. Berlin wheat 1%c higher, and Budapest wheat %c higher. Bradstreet reports a decrease of 473,000 bu in wheat east of the Rocky Mountains and in Canada, a decrease of 5,300,000 bu in wheat in Europe and afloat, and a total decrease of 5,773,000 bu in the world’s visible supply of wheat. The local market was fairly active, and prices moved nervously in a good | range. The opening was firm, the un- favorable crop reports from abroad and the upward tendency in all foreign markets being the support. Spot wheat at Liverpool was sharply higher and in good demand, and for the first time for several years led the advance in futures there. The demand for export wheat was good and Duluth and other export points reported good sales of Manitobas. The higher prices abroad were said to be due to unseasonable weather and dis- tressingly poor crop prospects in the United Kingdom, France and Russia, and confirmation of rust in Germany. The course of foreign markets was closely watched. The report on winter wheat condi- tions by Snow rather favored the bulls, showing a small condition and acreage. He estimates the crop at about 350,000,- 000 bu, and says Kansas will yield about 60,000,000 bu. The disappointing threshing reports from Kansas con- tinued, and there were further reports of green bugs and lateness of from three weeks to a month from the spring wheat territory.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. CHAUTAUQUA, N. Y., July 3.—Fol- lowing close upon the assertion that politics is a higher and nobler profes- sion for young men to enter than the ministry, visitors at Chautauqua As- sembly were told that the church serv- ices of the future would in reality be smoking concerts if the present ten- dencies in religious progress continuer This prediction was made by Rev. Charlies D. Williams, Protestant Epis- copal Bishop of Michigan, who preached on the sin of society. “At these services men may have all the conveniences of their clubs, partic- ularly the privilege of: smoking, if they cared to, while concert music might take the place of sermons if desired by the churchgoers,’ said the Bishop. “There was a time when we were satis- fied to sit on hard benches in cold churches to listen to interminable dis- courses,”* he con ued, “but now we must have soft plus® pews and churches delicately comfortable. ‘“‘Men and ministers are not allowed merely to preach the gospel. They are all the time called on for something |particularly novel and interesting and the most sensational preacher is the one most in demand. The constant de- | inand for more pleasure and service as 'well as novelty in modern religious , services will soon make a smoking con- cert the main activity of some of our ' churches. “Never, I am convinced, did the Chris- tian church face a more serious crisis than she faces today. Never was she in greater danger, and that danger, it seems to me, is chiefly from within. Her mission and her future are jeopar- dized most seriously by her most bla- tant champions, and while these cham- bi0isS are engaged in clamorously con- tending about insignificant matters, the practical materialism of the day is woe. gag Me ne er away from the e eir fait eir ospel, thei church and their God.’ 7" _—

(BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.) WASHINGTON, July 3.—A dozen per- sons were seriously injured and as many more slightly hurt in a collision between a trolley car and two carloads of rails on the Washington, Arlington and Falls Church Electric Railway this morning. The passenger car left West End Sta- tion loaded with employes in the Gov- ernment departments in Washington. At Spruce Station two flat cars loaded with steel rails were being taken to West End Station. A motor car was pushing these flat cars and when one car had passed the switch, -the rail laden train started immediately without waiting for the Washington car. They came together south of Spruce Street Station. The rails on the forward car extended several feet beyond the trucks and when the crash occurred these penetrated the passenger car al- most telescoping it. One rail passed through the abdomen of Motorman Wm. Mock, and one passenger had both legs severed. Many women on the car. were badly injured. Twelve of the injured passengers were taken to Georgetown Hospital.
