PARALYSIS2 IT'S JUST FUN, SAYS LAUGH CURE MAN ‘Aged Alton Court Clerk Be- lieves Joviality a Remedy for Anything.

“LONG ILL, NOW WALKS More Good Humor, He Says, Would End Half World’s ae |

MCONVERTS SICK WIFE

- Wectares at 82 He Is as Spry ) and Capable as Forty Years Ago.

Joviality—pure, unadulterated good ie or—backed up by hearty laughter, ‘ #8 @ positive cure for any disease, says | Francis F. Brandewiede, 8 years old, “@lerk of the City Court of Alton. Seven months ago he was stricken . ‘With paralysis, both arms and legs be- ‘ing helplessly crippled. Today he is ‘walking the streets, bantering his : friends, joking and telling how he cured {himself by forgetting his troubles and ‘laughing and having a good time with those who called to condole and offer their sympathy. “If more persons would be good-hu- -mored and laugh, tnstead of brooding ever their filness, there would not be half so many sick in the world,” said Brandewiede in relating how he cured himself. ‘“‘At my age it would discour- age almost any man to be stricken help- less with paralysis, but I have looked on the sunny side of things all my life,

and I did not despair, though I often | overheard friends who called to see me gay that I was on my deathbed this time al] right. Joked on Sickbed. “I just kept my spirits up, joked bout my illness, told.goed stories and made my visitors tell the some. 1 ieueelk te heartily all the time and never for a moment gave way to gloom. I @lept just as peacefully and sweetly as when I was an infant in my mother’s arms. I awoke bright and early each morning, feeling refreshed and ready for another day’s joviality. “IT did not take any medicine and attribute my recovery’ solely to the bright, cheerful manner in which I bore my illness. The faith I have had all my life in the efficacy of cheerfalness as a cure for all ails has been increased @ thousand fold. I am not a believer fm the Osler theory, for at 82 I feel just as spry physically and as capable mentally as I did 40 years ago. I am going back to my official duties within a few weeks.”’ Laugh Cares Wife. This rugged old man also says that he is getting his wife, who has been geriously ill for some time, into his way of thinking. She has been suffering from a complaint which the doctors told her would soon necessitate an op- eration. Brandewiede was so cheerful during his own illness that his 74-year- @id wife began to partake of his spirit, and now she is fast recovering, he says. For 18 years Brandewiede has been Clerk of the City Court of Alton. So popular is he with both political par- thes because of his good humor and wit as a raconteur that within the past few years no one has been named on the opposition ticket. During the seven months in which he was regaining his health by his laugh cure his duties at the City Court were performed by Deputy Clerk S. F. Conor, DEATH THREAT 1} ‘SENT MULVIRILL Excise Commissioner Mulyihill's life ts threatened in a letter received at the Commissioner's office Wednesday morn- ing. The writer, whether a joker or a crank in deadly earnest, gives Mulvihill three chances for his life, conditional! upon a quirk cessation of lid operations. The letter in full reads: “‘Dear Sir: ‘u “Be careful. You have gone far eenough. Beware. Enclosed tind black apot. One black gpot is the first warn- ing. Two black spots last warning. Three black spots death.” Vv. Vv.” On the back of the letter is the in- “F. G. for society.” The letter is written in ink and bears Tuesday's date. The handwriting is fair and there are no mistakes in spell- ing. The black spot was of heavy glazed paper and was pasted on the

sheet. | Edward Hartmann, who is in charge of the office during Commissioner Mu]- vihill’s absence from the city, said he @id not take the communication seri- ously, But he had it photographed and turned over to the police.

= | ELDERLY BRIDEGROOM’S DASH IN HUCKSTER CART WINS LICENSE TO MARRY Piasa Chautauquans Charavari Bri- dal Pair at Station and Placard Their Train. It is probably safe to say that if Daniel Q. Trotter of Jerseyville, 61 years old, lives to be 161 he will never get married again at Piasa Chautauqua. He was married there Tuesday to Miss Lucy Miles, aged 55. To get her he had to make a record-breaking, neck-break- ing trip of 32 miles in a huckster wagon for the license, and brave a terrific charivari. Mr. Trotter told his cousin, Will Sim- mons, to bring the license along from Jerseyville. When Simmons arrived at 10:30° o’clock he said the license could not be obtained without the presence of Trotter. The arrangement was to leave Chautauqua at 5:13 o’clock to take an up-river boat at Alton. There was no train to Jerseyville, and no vehicle on the grounds. When a Jersey farmer drove in with a load of chickens and produce, thera was a quick dicker; the chicken coop and produce boxes were unloaded and the farmer’s teain was off to Jerseyville, 16 miles away, with Trotter holding on for dear life. It was 4:30 o’clocks when Chautauqua was reached. Rey. J. A. Scarritt was waiting. In half an hour the wedded couple were on their way to the railroad station. Every Chautauquan that could walk was there, with cowbells, kitchen uten- sils, rice and old shoes and placards. During the thirteen minutes’ wait for the train the din was incessant. Old shoes were tied to the luggage. The couple were bombarded with pounds of rice, some of which was poured down Mr. Trotter’s back. When the train came in, nimble boys boarded it and posted placanis through it.

LOUISVILLE, Ky., Aug. 21.—Paul C. Barth, was deposed recently Mayor of this city, shot and killed him- self here toady. The removal of Mr. Barth from the of- fice of Mayor was the result of the decision of the Kentucky Court of Ap- peals overturning the municipal election of 1905. On the face of the returns, as counted on election day, the Democratic ticket for city and county officers (Jef- ferson County) had been declared elect- ed, but a contest in the courts was in- stituted by representatives of the fusion ticket, the only one in the fleld against the Democrats. The Court of Appeals in the final hearing of the case decided that “gross frauds’ in the matter of repeating, il- legal voting, intimidation of voters and falsification of the counts prevailed to such an extent as to render the elec- tion invalid. Under the terms of the court's man- date it became incumbent on Gov. Peckham to appoint boards of council- men and aldermen and a Mayor for the city of Louisville and a County Judge for Jefferson County. The Mayor and Mounty Judge were, under the law, em- powered to fill all the remaining county

Son Withdraws Action to De- termine Christian Science Leader’s Competency.

(BY ASSOCIATED PRESS. CONCORD, N. H., Aug. 21.—The fa- mous suit in equity brought on March 1 last by George W. Glover, son of Mrs. Baker G. Eddy " against Calvin &. Frye Mary and others as ‘‘next friends, and others, for an accounting of the property of the aged head of the Chris- tian Science Church, came to an abrupt end today. Immediately after opening of court in the continued hearing regarding Mrs. Eddy’s competency before Judge Edgar Aldrich and co-masters, William § EE. Chandler, senior counsel for the ‘‘next friends,’’ announced having filed a mo- tion for dismissal of the suit. This was the second day of the sec- ond week of the masters’ hearing upon the competency of Mrs. Eddy. Upon the masters taking their seats, William E. Chandler, senior counsel] for the next friends, addressed the Court, saying: *‘‘May it please the Court, it will doubtless be a relief to the masters to be informed that the counsel for the next friends have this day filed with the clerk of the court a motion for the dismissal of the pending suit and that they hereby withdraw their appearance before the masters without asking from them any finding upon the question sub- mitted to them by Judge Chamberlain. “There are many reasons for this ac- tion. The principal one arises from a consideration of the unprofitableness of any immediate result of a decision in eur favour npon the exact issue as now framed; conip.red with the burdens and disadvantages to be endured by us, both before and after such a decision. ‘The suit has been almost wholly al- truistic in its nature and not a single dollar of the large fortune whose exist- ence is disclosed, or which might be enlarged in consequence of this suit, can become at this time the property of the next friends. There are also rea- sons sentimental in their character, overcoming the strong desire of the next friends to prove the facts and vin- dicate the reasons upon which the suit has been based—which, however, is now hereby dismissed.’’ Mr. Streeter, counsel for Mrs. Eddy, at once presented a motion that the masters proceed with the hearing and determine her competency to manage her business affairs, which was advo- cated. Suit Commenced in March. The suit which has terminated so sud- denly was commenced March 1 last, when papers were filed in the Superior Court. of Merrimack County. It was alleged that Mrs. Eady was, and for a long time had been, incompetent to transact business or understand trans- actions conducted in her name or in con- nection with her property. This alle- gation was made by her son. George Washington Glover, of Deadwood, S. D. Mr. Glover, his daughter, Mary Baker Glover, and George W. Baker of Ban- gor, Me., the only surviving nephew of Mrs. Eddy, appeared in the proceedings as ‘‘next friends’’ of Mrs. Eddy, who was the nominal plaintiff in the pro- ceedings. The defendants were Calvin D. Frye, private secretary, and Lewis C. Strang, assistant secretary to Mrs. Eddy; Prof. Hermann 8S. Herring, the first reader of her church in this city; Irving C.

Fowler Again Arrested in Alton Spends Night in Jail.

When Charles O. Fowler, 33 years old, president of the Fowler Fuel Co. of Alton and a social blade in that city, left St. Louis Tuesday night to visit his wife he never dreamed that he would be nabbed by a Deputy Sher- iff and served with a warrant charging him with forgery. Fowler was locked up. He made every effort to get bail but failed. This is the second time that Fowler has fallen into the police tolls be- cause of investigations into the trans- actions of the fuel company of which he is the head and which he organ- ized about a year ago. In this case the complainant is F. R. Sullivan, a steckholder in the com- pany. Sullivan declares that he in- vested $1200 In the company, paying Fowler $700 in cash and giving a note for the balance. No Record eof Stock. He says that when investigation was made into the books of the firm it was found that there was no record of his stock and that Fowler, who had never called a meeting of the direc- tors, had increased the original capi- talization from 82500 to $6500 without the knowledge of any of the stock- holders. Sullivan alleges that the books have been juggled by Fowler. Several weeks ago Fowler was ar- rested on a charge of embezzling $1350 of the company’s money. The warrant was sworn to by George | ©. Milnor, secretary of the company Fowler was releaged on $6000 bond and his trial set for the September term of the Circuit Court. Fowler immediately came to St. Louis.

Pellom, 4.¢) | * Pe, oe ‘ » eee pore > as ; , a private detective. ‘‘T sha not ask the Attorney-General to act on these vits,’’ said the Governor. ‘I shall wait for some resident of | Louis County, not a detective, some person who may be bi supposed to be striving solely for the public good, to file an‘ davit before I take action.’’ In a formal statement, dictated by the Governor for the E ont= Dispatch, he declared that the whole power of the State a Ks employed, if necessary, to stamp out lawlessness in St. Louis: Co ty. will be taken. “If a-bona fide does not come for- ward to demand a. better government for St. Louis County, then it will be just to conclude that the county does not deserve any better government than it has been getting. “T did not in any way authorize or I have seen him only once. Last Sunday he called on me while I was stopping at the residence of E. 8. Lewis in this city, and talked of county matters. “T understood then that he was do- ing detective work for the University City people. “tT know nothing about Pellom per- sonally. Whether or not he is above criticism personally, the fact that he is a detective disqualifies him from act- ing in this matter with the hope of suc- cess. It would be urged against him that he is merely trying to make a case, not working with the good of the community as his prime object. Governor’s Interview. Gov. Folk’s interview is as follows: ‘‘Missouri is today the most law-abid- ing State in the Union. The cities of St. Louis, Kansas City and St. Joseph are the most moral and law-observing arge cities in the United States. “A number of counties resisted the idea of a reign of law a long time; but they are practically all now keeping step with the music of law and order, except St. Louis County. This is the black sheep among Missouri counties. “Tf it is not as bad as it seems, it has the faculty of displaying all of its vices and concealing its virtues. “The city of St. Louis, in many ways, extends far beyond the county lines. If one stands on the boundaries of county and city any Sunday afternoon, he can look on one side and see government and on the other side anarchy. On the city side he can see peace, quiet and good order; on the county side, de- bauchery and ribald lawlessness. Not Easy Task. ‘The government of a county such as st. Louis County, In circling as it does the great city of St. Louls that belches into it lawless characters afraid to operate where the strong arm of the police power of the city can reach them, is not an easy task at best. “When, to these difficulties Incident to its location there is added neglect or failure of officials to do thelr sworn duty, conditions become intolerable to every sense of decency and law. “IT believe the large majority of peo- ple are law-abiding, and that this is true of St. Louis County. The law-abid- ing there, however, are very quiet, while the lawless are perniciously ac- tive. Looks for Honest Men. “A dozen good men, no doubt, can be found in the county. It is possible that they can be gotten together once and adopt a resolution that it would be a good thing for someone else to do something. “J doubt, though, if there are 12 men in St. Louls County who will be as courageous in standing up for the law ana the right as the other fellows are in standing by what is lawless and wrong. “One aggressive good citizen can overcome a hundred lawless ones, But no mater how many good citizens there may be in St. Louis County, if they afraid to show their colors they are ‘lare as useless to the cause of good government as if they lived in the Sandwich Islands. “If the dormant iaw-abiding clement of that county can be aroused the forces of lawleseness can easily be van- realpaiinten! ‘Tf drastic measures are required,’’ he said, ‘‘drastic me “In an ordinary county men their. country; they love, thelr 1 and they love their ries ys eq Louls County the average’ his coyntry and loves his Stete,- of course, strange to say, his lee - triotism is lacking. “Of course, there are polticians & others who, for selfish proclaim thetr devotion to the ¢ but the average man there have that county patriotisny 3 will find in Cole, in Boone or in A son.

~~ SS Corner Stone of Building That for 31 Years Housed Merrymakers Day and Night Con- tains Many Bottles of Old Wine.

The old Alhambra Theater at 712 St. ‘Charles street, one of the most notable of the ‘“‘free and easy” resorts that flourished in St. Louis for many years, ground occupied by the building has been sold by Judson M. Thompson to a local candy dealer for $80,000. bought the ground 27 years ago for §$12,- Om and erected the theater for Jake Escher, who conducted it for 21 years. Ischer paid $3000 a year rent. Thompson has also sold for $140,000 the 99-year North Eighth street. ’ Jake Escher was one of the pioneers in the ‘“‘free-and-easy” theatrical field in St. Louis. He opened the Alhambra Theater in July, 188, and from that time until it was closed in December, 1901, it was the daily scene of merriment. Admission to the theater was obtained by purchasing a drink at the bar. A free ticket was given with every drink. To persons who did not drink at the bar the price of admission was 10 cents. Performers Women. There was an all-day and most-of-the- night continuous performance in the theater. The performers were mostly women. There was a row of boxes around the auditorium and these were haunted by the actresses, if such they could be called. No formalities stood in the way of an acquaintance with the per- formers. They went among the specta- tors and talked to everybody. They got @ percentage of the proceeds from the gale of beer and wine. Beer was sold for $.

The members of the Benjamin Fran‘. assisted deputy constables from Mi * Kinney’s office to raid Musgrave’s room on Law- ton avenue a few weeks ago and carry away all of his clothes and other prop- erty that could be found. Musgrave was in the bathroom at the time and the constables made a determined effort to capture his trousers. Mrs. Musgrave’'s participation in this affair is made one of the grounds for the divorce. The Arkansas planter came to St. Louis last October tc get married in a hurry. The Federat Court in Arkan- sas had just . rendered judzments against him in favor of Miss Marion Emmons and Adilina Vitt of St. Louis, and it was necessary for the planter to be married in order to protect his property from seizure. Without looking around a great deal. Musgrave selected Miss Perdue, who was recomuiendei to nim by friends as a woma'n who wvuld meet his requirements for a wife. At the time of the marriage the bride was undergoing surgical treatment in St. Louis and she did not go with him to his Arkansas plantation. Sent Bride Back to St. Louis. When she went to Arkansas in March she found that her husband did not wel- come her. Instead of receiving her with open arms he refused to have anything to do with her, and within nine days sent her back to St. Louis. Mrs., Mus- grave waited untit] her husband came to St. Louls, and when she found him here she aided deputy constables in an effort to get hold of his roll of money containing about $1600. Several judgments have heen rendered against Musgrave here, one of them be- ing in favor of Dr. O'Keefe for $175 for medical services to Mrs. Musgrave. While Musgrave was taking a bath at his boarding house, Mrs. Musgrave sig- raled the constables, and when they got through with the planter he had barely enough clothes left to make a respecta- ble appearance. Some time ago charges were made against Musgrave Misses Vitt and Emn.ons, who said they had been in- duced to go to Arkansas as compan- fons for Muserave’s wife. When they got there they found he had no wife, and that conditions were very different from what he represented them to be. They sued him for damages and made charges upon which Musgrave was in- dicted for peonace. Musgrave's fourth wife shot him in the head and he narrowly escaped with his life. He got divorces from his other wives after living with of them but a short time. LAPSE OF MEMORY CHANGES bv each Fair (suard Makes Arrest. but Is Brought Back to Earth by Patrolman.

NEW YORKERS SACRIFICE AUTOS WORTH MILLIONS) p= ae

— By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Aug. 21.—More than two thousand New Yorkers, some of them ranking as millionaires, have sold their automobiles within the last few weeks. Almost as many more have canceled orders for new machines. These automobiles represent a total cost of over $15,000,000. They are now worth probably $7,000,000. “The ‘rich man’s panic’ in Wall street has made all the trouble,”’ said an Up- per Broadway dealer. He exhibited a telegram from a stock broker in Broad street which read: “Sorry, but sickness in family com- — me to spend summer in mountains. *lease cancel my order for that $7500 machine.”’ “There's no sickness in his family.’ said the dealer. ‘‘He’s been ‘stung’ in the market. He made a 10 per cent de- osit, but can better afford to lose his 760 than put up the balance.’’ Every dealer in high-priced ma- chines has stories to tell of orders can- celed by New Yorkerg, who ‘until re- cently were supposed be rich enough to afford any luxury. he average rich

Stringency in Wall Street Forces Host of Sup- posed Wealthy Men to Part With Their Expensive Cars.

New Yorker has an expensive family. Any curtailment of income cuts off tne luxuries. So the automobile has to be sacrificed. The great difference in the display made by the rich is visible in every place argund New York. It has been painfully evident at the Saratoga races. There are not half as many autos there as last year. There is this to be said for the rich who have given up their fine cars. Not one of them, so far as known, rides in a cheap car. They have backed out of the game altogether on one excuse or another. Now is the time for a New Yorker to buy an automobile cneap. The second- hand dealers are doing a tremendous business. A $9500 car sold the other day for $5000. A $4500 machine was disposed of for $1200. A $3000 aute, right from the factory, was offered yesterday for $1000. Machines can be bought for cash for almost any price. Generally speak- ing, comparatively new cars can be purchased in the second-hand places for about one-third of their original price. There have been eight failures up to date this season of automobile manu- facturing concerns. The last one, that of Pope Manufacturing Co., with over $22,000,000 capital, has put every maker 1 and dealer on the the anxious seat.

CLEHK FOUND DEAD LEU A MODEL L Friends Don’t Believe Former Mis- souri Pacific Employe Commit- ted Suicide in Chicago.

Friends of William F. Anderson, who formerly lived at 3963 Olive street, and who was found dead in a hotel in Chi- cago Tuesday, scout the theory of sui- cide. ‘“‘Mr. Anderson led an ideal home life,’’ said Rev. H. C. St. Clair, pastor of Trinity Episcopal Church, of which the dead man was a member, and TI cannot believe that he has taken his own life. He was a regular attendant at church, and he led a quiet life, spending all his leisure time at home with his wife and little daughter. “When I 'ast saw him he was in hap- py spirits, and it is certain in my mind that he had no cause for doing awav with himself. Of course it is barely possible that the sunstroke he suffered may have affected his mind.”’ It was said that he carried a consid- erable sum of money when he left for Chicago. The Anderson family gave up the flat on Olive street a month ago and went to live temporarily with I. M. Frank, a friend, at 3926A Lindell boulevard. Anderson was recently promoted to the position of Inspector of Passen- ger Service, but the work took him away from home and he gave it up to go with a Chicago mercantile house. Anderson was found dead in a hotel on the west side of Chicago Tuesday morning.

Passion for Bargains Blamed for Shortage of Trusted Official. By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Aug. 21.—A passion for bargains in department stores is thought to be responsible for the downfall of Mrs. Andrew Goetz, treasurer of the | Sunday School of St. John’s Evangelical | Lutheran Church at West New York, N. J. Who has disappeared, leaving a short- age in her accounts. | There is missing $680 in Sunday School | tunds and $80, raised penny by penny by ‘children for an altar for the church be- ing erected. For 15 years Mrs. Goetz has been the leader among the women of St. John’s She was foremost in all good works and rivaled the pastor in the affections of the congregation. Even now the church people are wondering how they can get along without her. During the eight years she was treas- urer the woman has never been asked for an accounting. It was supposed that she had the Sunday School funds in a bank drawing interest, but it is learned that she never had a bank account.

Notes Explain Case. The alleged shortage was kept quiet several days in the hope that Mrs. Goetz would return. Last Friday night, when her husband returned from work his wife was gone. un the dining room ta- ble were two notes. One told him that all the Sunday School money had been spent and that she had never kept a band account, as the church people had directed. The other reaa: “T would rather face death than face my husband’s wrath.”’ Goetz had no sooner realized what had happened when there came a ring at his doorbell. The pastor of the church, Rev. E. F. G. wecker, accompanied by two of the trustees, had come to demand of Mrs. Goetz an accounting of the funds. “Gentlemen, my wife is a thief,’’ said Goetz. with the tears streaming down his face, as he handed the notes to the pastor. “T’ll find her and bring her back,’’ he said when the situation had been ex- plained. ‘“‘She must have been crazy to do such a thing.”’ POLICE LOUK FOR A BIG SHAKE UP Commissions of Eight Hundred End Wednesday at Mid- night.

The commissions of about 800 members of the police force expire Wednesday at midnight. As none of the men know whether their commissions will be re- newed there will uneasiness among them until the meeting of the board scheduled for Aug. 30. Rumors of a shake-up of large pro- portions are persistent. There is a general belief that the bourd will take advantage of tne expira- tion of the commissions to make many reductions and dismissals. It is the be- lief that probably three captains, two lleutenants and 25 sergeants will be re- duced, Estimates differ as to the number of patrolmen who. will be dismissed. Some say that as many as 200 patrol- men will be dropped. In view of the difficulty experienced by the board in getting 300 qualified men when that num- ber were needed for the three-platoon svetem, it is not believed that the board wil! dispense with any such number of )} experienced men. be

I did so and he improved from the first. We weighed him last Saturday and found thai he hed galred three-quarters of a pound in barely a week on the good milk. That is more than two ocunces a day. I dread so to put him back on the condensed milk after having given him this kind. “Before I got the milk his flesh was soft and flabby, but now it is as firm and muscular as can be. He is cer- tainly much the short time that he has been getting the milk. “How long does the laboratory keep open?’ she asked. ‘‘Well, heretofore, it has had to close during the winter, but we are very anxious to continue the work the year around,’’ I answered. 68 Fn that be fine,’’ she said. “If I thought I could get the milk all winter I would want to stay here.

THIRD BILL HIT PUBLIC UTILITIES Delegate Hussey Proposes an Or- dinance to Regulate Service and Charges.

Nine members of the Municipal As- sembly, to be appointed by the Speaker of the House of Delegates and President of the Council, instead of by Mayor Wells, are to constitute a commission for the regulation of public utilities un- der an ordinance proposed by Delegate Frank Hussey. Hussey’s bill is one of three now be- fore the Municipal Assembly. One fa- thered by Delegate Davis several weeks ago provides for a commission of three members to be selected by the Mayor. Councilman Cramer is the author of another contemplating a commission of nine, of which the Mayor, President of the Council, Speaker of the House of Delegates, City Counsellor and four laymen are to be members. In addition to the nine members— three of whom are to be councilmen— Hussey’s bill makes provision for an attorney at a salary of $300 a month, experts at $10 a day and a clerk at $200 a month. The bill carries with it also an appropriation of $15,000 for expenses, including salaries. Husséy’s commission would have power to investigate charges exacted by all public service corporations—including those furnishing electricity, gas, heat, telephones and transpertation—to compel the attendance of witnesses, the pro- duction of books and records and to make recommendation of legisiation deemed necessary.

Mrs. Eddy discussed her life, her daily occupations and her work in Christian Science, and explained how she had discovered the fundamental principle of her religious belief. Creed Not on Trial. In ruling on the testimony, Judge Al- drich barred all evidence relating to alleged religious delusions, saying that it was not germane to the inquiry, that Christian Science was not on trial and ought not to be put on trial in a case of this kind any more than any other religious creed or belief in the efficacy of prayer. He insisted that the evidence must be limited to alleged delusions which would affect her action toward those interested in the suit. The attorneys on both sides agreed to an examination of Mrs. mage | by allenists. When the suit was commenced Mrs. Sddy turned over her property to three trustees, who offered statements as to the exact amount of property in their hands, which aggregated about $1,000,- 00). Affidavits and accountings which showed the precise condition of the property and the use to which it had been put for years, were » offered.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. BUTTE, Mont., Aug. 21.—The Stand- ard Oil Co. is covering the country with railroad its own. So remarkable is the progress being made that it is likely that within three years from the time the railroad rate bill went into effect the Standard Oil crowd will be in possession of a com- system, running and through its systems will of the oil- the United systems of transcontinental to and to poriions pieie from side have consuming States. The Railroad ocean, collateral cream of ocean lines access the Paul the Milwaukee & St. here to be Chicago, is declared ard’s railroad operations. This system gridirons the best portions of the Cen- tral West, being especially strong in Northern Illinois, Wisconsin, Northern Michigan, Minnesota and South Da- kota. A new line pein pushed across rt the Pacific, following the general course of the Northern Pacific and run- ning for many hundred miles within Sight of the trains of the latter road. Grading for the road is being hurried all along the route. Riding across the continent on the Northern Pacific the continuous line of camps, from which the Standard Oil grading crews are working in both directions, and so rap- idly is the task being pushed that it is predicted with confidence that by Jan. 1 the road’s crack train, the Pio- neer Limited, will be running into this city. Early in 1909 the road promises to make its Western terminal in Se- attle. But the octopus could hardly have made such strides in building the road if it were not for its material inter- ests, all capable of doing anything, being called upon. Thus, in some por- tions of the West, the Standard Oil Co. is the leading sawmill and lumber operator, and so its mills were ordered to furnish the ties and bridge timbers and other wood material needed. The bridge timbers for all the line, from its Eastern end to Butte, have been provided, and as the mills have been compelled to furnish five cars of ties a day for the last year or more, it is likely there will be no shortage in this material when the laying of rails be- gins. As for the rail, the Steel Trust has been laying by a supply for so long that it is said to have enough on hand for the entire road from Minnesota to Seattle. It will thus be perceived that by the time the Government gets ready to put to the Standard Oil that trust will be provided, through this Western system and the roads in the East which it “has bought, as well as by its pipe lines, to serve the major portion of the country with oil and there is not the least doubt here that the Standard Oil will soon be found, for selfish interests, the most strenu- ous opponent of rebates in the coun- try. is

it is the common belief in

Indeed, this State that the Standard will not only oppose rebates but that it will stand for the maximum rate on oils, no matter whose oils are being shipped. For the slaughter of competitors re- bates are not necessary when you own the railroad over which your competl- tor has to send his goods, or if you have uniformly high rates on all roads for everybody and can ship your own goods over your own roads. There is a fine field in this Western country also for the Federal Govern- ment to satisfy itself as to the ultli- mate end of things if the Standard Oil Co. is permitted to go ahead and work its will in the acquisition of busi- ness mondpolies and public utilities. Here in Montana there is scarcely a line of business carrying a profit in which the Standard people are not en- gaged on a big scale. Mining is their leading pursuit, but they also follow railroading, lumbering, banking and general retail and wholesale trade. An Excellent After Dinner Smoke. Haase Uneeda Weeda 5c Cigar. —

Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Aug, 21.—A portly, well- dressed man of almost patriarchal age, boarded a ferry bout at Hoboken yes- terday proudly escorting a good-looking young woman in white. He seemed at peace with the world and prepared for a pleasant outing. The couple were chatting cordially when a handsome, richly attired matron wearing diamonils stalked up to them. The boat by that time was half way to New York. The cabin was thronged. “So this is you, is it?’’ the matron demanded, halting in front of the pa- triarch and his companion and survey- ing them with disdain. The man ducked his head, the young woman shrank from the other. “This is my husband, William M. Ab- bott—the good Deacon Abbott,” said the woman with diamonds, pointing out the man to those around. Everybody at once sat up and took notice. “Please go away and let me alone,” pleaded the ‘‘deacon.”’ “No, sir; I'm going to follow you and your friend around all day and see where you go,’ returned Mrs. Abbott. By the time the boat reached Twen- ty-third street it was noised all about the cabin that the good Deacon Abbott was aboard with a woman and that his wife was on the trail.

Coach Blanchard Will Use Every Effort to Induce Him to Remain.

Washington University's hopes for @ winning football team this season were given a severe jolt when word was re- ceived from Spencer Thomas, star half- back and ex-captain and counted upon this year to be his usual tower of strength in the back fleld, that he would — be unable to play this fall. Thomas is at present visiting his fam- lly in Tennessee. For the last two years they have strongly opposed his . taking part in the gridiron battles and ~ now as he has finished his undergrad- uate work and will enter the law school this term, they think he has had suf- ficient opportunity to play and should now abandon the game. Eleven Badly Handteapped. 2 If Thomas is really unable to get out for Blanchard this year the Bowdoin man will have suffered a very consider- able loss and will be greatly handi- capped in turning out a winning eleven. Last year Tommy represented close to half of Washington’s playing strength and all of it virtually in the back field. His play against Missouri! was spectacu- lar and it was due in great measure to his personal efforts and Harry Cas- dean's clever. headwork that Washing- — ton won an unexpected victory from the Tigers. Thomas jis a splendid back, tip- ping the scales at close to 170 pounds, standing a little under 6 feet, with’ a nice burst of speed and behind ft all bulldog grit and pluck. Moreover, he is a remarkably fine place and drop kicker. Muay Listen to Reason, Of course there is a chance that when Blanchard and Castlem get hold of him, off in a dark corner by himself and give him an injection of that line of talk that is so hard to resist when the pigskin season opens, Tommy m again, as he has for the last two years, “chuck” all his renunciative intentions and once more come out to help the myrtle and maroon.

The local fans who saw the game were just as well satisfied with the Browns’ playing as though the home team had won and the fact that the Cardinals downed the Phillies again, making it 11 out of the last 13 games, put everyone in a good humor with everywhere else. except with the be- fore-mentioned Mr. Stafford. Stafford’s decisions were very bad, indeed, and ‘had they been against any the base an inch or two.

21.—The trotting READVILLE, Mass., Aug. world’s record for 3-year-old stallions was reduced to 2:09% by Gen. Watts at the grand circuit meeting Tuesday. Both heats of the American Horse Breeders’ Futurity went to the son of Axworthy in that remarkable time. The victory of the colt was a sur- prise to the talent, as twice this sea- son the filly, Bill Bird, had taken his measure—at Cleveland and at Buffalo. Gen. Watts was clearly master of the situation after having passed the quar- ter pole in the initial heat, though at the finish of the second heat Bowerman tapped the colt a couple of times to stall off Blue Hill's rush through the homestretch, when the latter got to Gen. Watts’ neck. Bill Bird went to pacing in the first heat soon after the word and then to a bad break. McDonald stepped her very fast from the half home, being a good third. In the last heat McDonald laid in a good position back of Watts to the last three furlongs, when he pulled wide, but found that to beat Blue Bill was impossible, let alone Gen. Watts. ee The winner is the property gg Cc; Watts, Charlestown, W. Va., and was driven by the veteran Lexington (Ky.) trainer. Mike Bowerman.

You rarely see one of them throw down his glove and stamp upon it, wishing inwardly that it was the umpire under foot. You never have seen any of them wave their bats at the man with the indicator and there was no complaint yesterday when Elberfeld did his usual “good as a hit” stunt when he saw a slow one coming over the plate and was sent along to first base by Mr. Hurst. 7 St. Louis uniform, slamming the ball around for the Browns brings to mind the sorrowful fact, gentle read- er, that the Highlanders, who wind up their series here today, now have an excellent ball elub scattered throughout the American League. There are just even nine of discarded Hilltoppers doing service in the various clubs of the Ban Johnson association, and every one of them is drawing his stipend as regularly as the ghost walks and on the diamond they are forcing their names into the headlines. .

The sale of Wilder was freely criti- cized around the circuit. President Kinsella of the Springfield team was also after him anw claimed to have made a prior deal for him. The dis- pute got into the league meeting held last week in Peoria. The evidence of Peoria and Springfield was presented and the decision was given to Peoria. Kinsella announced his intention of ap- pealing the case to the National Com- mission and he also protested every game pitched by Wilder. The evi- dence submitted by Springfield was simply a verbal deal made over the telephone and this was not thought legal. The Eastern Clubs left last week for the West, opening up the final series on the Western grounds Thursday. The Eastern and Western teams then meet for the last time. The showing of Rock Island on its home grounds will deter- mine the chances of that team for first place honors.

DISREGARD FOR WORDS

In Danger of Doing as Much Damage te Legitimate Busi- ness as to the Illegitimate. ee ee ee Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Aug. 21.—Quoting the excerpt from the speech of President Provincetown, the New York World, in an editorial entitled “‘Mr. Rooesvelt's speech—More Mudg@iing of Government,” today ar- raigned the President in scathing terms for his uncertain policy and his mania for new schemes of legislation, which, with the attacks of State legislatures on railroads, prompted by his example, have impaired public confidence, weak- ened credit and endangered the success- ful management of railroads and other The editorial follows: Always more law, more law, like the daughters of the horse-leech crying “Give! Giver” When will the President's clamor for new leg- isiation end? When will he give the legitimate business interests of the country a breathing spell? The grave defect of Mr. Roose- velt’s corporation policy is that he has no policy. He has advocated a constitutional amendment to enable the Government to suppress the trusta; he has advocated publicity as the first essential step in controlling these corporations and secured the agencies of such publicity; he has promised the strictest enforcement of the Sherman law; he has explained why “good” trusts should not be pros- ecuted at all; he has advocated Fed- eral licenses for all corporations en- gaged in interstate commerce; he has undertaken to have receivers appoint- ed for corporations that violate the law; he has advanced the astounding doctrine that under the post-roads clause Congress can contrel any com- mon carrier that transports the mails; he has demanded and obtained the power through a commission to fix railway rates; he has declared that no criminal, high or low, whom the Government could convict would es- cape punishment; he has explained why the prosecution of these crimin- als is generally inexpedient—and now he has arrived at a Federal incorpora- tien law as the sovereign remedy. Mr. Roosevelt advances one new etheme after another, until the business mind is bewildered in the mazes of pres- i idential experimentation. His example as a curber of corpora- tions and the extraordinary politica) Popularity he has won thereby have inspired an army of imitators from ene end of the country to the other. Prosecutes a Few. Mr. Roosevelt prosecutes a few big corporations and dozen State governors set up in business as uncompromising trust busters. Mr. Roosevelt gains a eral rate bill through Congress, and 2 State legislatures, bereaved of passes ef free transporation,. begin to regulate raliroads. Their power had laid dor- mant for years; their duties had been neglected with solemn and studied care, but under the inspiration of Mr. Roose- Velt's success and Mr. Bryan's applause a frenzy for regulation runs from one end of the country to the other.

PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT.

BELIEVE in a national incorporation law for corporations engaged in interstate commerce. I be- lieve, furthermore, that the need for action is most pressing as regards those corporations which, because they are common carriers evercise a quasi-publie >t tion, and which can be com- pletely controlled in all re- spects by the Federal Gov- ernment by the exercise of the power conferred under the interstate commerce elause, and if necessary un- der the postroad clause of the Constitution. — From President Roosevelt’s Prov- incetown speech.

of rational, intelligent statesmanship. To make confusion worse confounded, a sharp conflict of authority has arisen between State authorities and Federal courts in half a dozen states. Judge Jones of the United States District Court has enje@ined the authorities of Alabama, including every Sheriff and every solicitor, from enforcing the new rate law against the Louisville & Nash- ville Railroad until its validity can be determined. Southern Surrendered. In the same State the Southern -Raii- read surrendered to the authorities be- cause it feared {o conduct its case in the Federal courts on account of a bit- terly hostile local sentiment. In North Carolina it made a surrender for the same reasons and the Governor of North Carolina, in the out- burst of patriotism, explains that while he would have called out the militia to enforce the decrees of State courts against Federal courts, he would not have ordered his State troops to fire on Federal troops. More legislation has been passed in a single year than the courts can dispose of in the next three years. Of this mass of railroad legislation, not a single act bas yet been Wpheld by the United States Supreme Court. The validity of even the national rate law is yet to be deter- mined, and Secretary Taft admitted in his speech Monday that the United States Supreme Court has never decided the question whether Congress could de!- egate to a commission its power to fix rates. From every economic point of view the situation of the railroads is per- plexing, if mot precarious. The na- tional Government and 45 State Gov- ernments are seemingly set on doing the same thing in the same way. Any railroad long enough to cross a State border is subject to from three to twenty different regulations and regulators. Not content with supplying the deficinecies of Federal regulations, the states are trying to exercise co-equal and co-ordinate powers, thus creating 46 different masters for the railroad interests as a whole to serve. Whatever crimes railroad manipu- lators have committed in the past, whatever stupidities their present management may be guilty of, the ronds cannot be subject to 46 kinds of rates and 46 different masters and sur- vive. They would be ground into bankruptcy between the upper and mether mill stones of State and Fed- eral authority, to the lasting injury of every wage-worker, to the semi-par- alysis of all business and apalling damage te all honest industries. It is double folly to invent new schemes of regulation and excite new unrest when acts already passed are yet to be worked out in practice and tried out in the courts. Never before in the history of the country has so much actual administration been crowd- ed upon the courts, and especially the United States courts. Never before has the Supreme Court been called upon to grapple with so many radical and fundamental ques- tions involving the control of property similar

and business. More and more the power of government is drifting into the hands

ef this regulation shaped along the lines ee of the judiciary to create general sus-

Locust | Laon and uncertainty, for the machin- ery of the courts moves slowly, while the machinery of legislation is revolving at the highest speed. Is it surprising that the business in- terests of the country are stunned and bewildered, or that the whole financia! | fab: ic is twisted and tangled? Nothing tis settled. Nothing is cer- tain. The demand for new experi- mental legislation goes on before the older experimental legislation has been tried and tested. Confidence is shaken and confidence is the mother of credit. Credit is weakened and without credit the business of the country cannot be carried on. This is a simple fact which is worth a pound of all the theories that even so vers- atile a genius as President Roosevelt can invent. Although New city in the world, York is the -richest the municipal gov- ernment cannct obtain money to carry on needed improvenients.or pay con- tractors in full for work already’ done. Neither at public nor private sale has of bonds already authorized. Other cities, no matter how good their creit, ing money. Wall street declares’ that bonds cannot be sold on account of Mr. Rooseveit’s unwise regulation of rail- roads and his prosecution of rich of- fenders. Mr. Roosevelt has not been regulat- ing city governments or _ prosecution mayors, yet municipalities find them- selves in the same predicament as rail- roads. There is a loss of confidence and a contraction of credit everywhere. The president of the Bowery Savings Bank declared in a World interview not long ago that downtown ‘bankers were hoafding vast sums in cash merely trom a sense 6f appretiension. More Collateral Demanded. People who have borrowed money on railroad or industrial stocks or securi- ties are met with demands for ~-more collateral. The zone of apprehension is steadily increasing in width and it is the business of statesmanship to look the facts squarely in the face. The London Telegraph, which is not influenced by party passion or private prejudice in its views of American af- fairs, believes that “if the movement against the trust becomes 4 political mania, driven by the impulses of blind and destructive hostility, it will be fa- tal to the prosperity of America.”’ It is convinced that the economic situ- ation here “corresponds to the political crisis of the Civil War, ‘and anotlier Abraham Lincoln would not be too great for the emergency.” An Abraham Lincoln is too great for any emergency, but a satisfactory sub- stitute might be found at the present time simply in moderation and restraint. Give the courts a chance to catch up with the legislative authority and define the legal principles which must govern this great movement to regulate organ- ized capital. Cannot Decree Confidence. The courts can enforce justice and prevent injustice, but they cannot decree confidence and credit. Neither can leg- islatures legislate confidence and credit.

Mr. Roosevelt cannot proclaim confi- dence and credit. We are not censuring the President for enforcing the anti-trust laws and up- holding the power of the Federal Gov- ernment over interstate commerce. It was time that power was vindicated. For 24 years the World has urged the authority of the United States Gov- ernment to protect the people from the rapacity of trusts, monopolies and great corporations. The Sherman law, which the World insistently advocated, was a tremendous triumph for public opinion, but it remained dead until Mr. Roosevelt quickened it into life. Mr. Cleveland re- garded it with indifference: Mr. Olney, his Attorney-General, treated it with open contempt. Then came Mr. McKinley, with Mark Hanna brazenly selling to corporations the privilege of violating the law in ex- change for campaign contributions. There is no more shameful chapter in American history. Regarded as a Joke. Is it surprising that financiers and trust managers came to regard the Sher- man law as a rather disreputable joke? If the United States Government showed no respect for its own statute, how could individuals be expected to volun- teer such respect? The belief was generally established in financial circles that the anti-trust act was only @ convenient decree for filling campaign chests, and that the purchase of immunity was a sacred duty which owed to his stockholders. The United States Government winked at and con- nived at violations of Its own laws, and this fact deserves to be considered in the prosecution of long-past offenses. It remained for Mr. Roosevelt to end his scandal, although he himself bene- fited politically by tmmense contribu- tions from men like Harriman. He him- self committed grave public scandal by taking Mr. Cortelyou from the super-

visorship and control of all the corpora- ‘tions and making him chairman of the

Not content with this, Mr. Roosevelt aggravated the scandal by raising Mr. Cortelyou, the receiver of Wall street campaign funds, first to be Postmaster- General and next to be Secretary of the Treasury. Mr. Roosevelt knew the scandal of Hanna's corruption fund in 1896. He knew it in 1900, when he was a candi- date for Vice-President. He knew by his own admissions of the Harriman contribution in 1904, and yet he held his pence until he was safely elected President in his own right, while tainted money was reaching out te control the Government, To this extent Mr. Roosevelt, lke his immediate predecessors, encour- aged the belief that Federal laws reg- ulating great corporations were not to be taken too seriously. For what he bas done to enforce these laws the World giadly gives him most gener- ous credit. It will not withdraw one word of the unstinted praise it has bestowed upon him, but at the pres- ent moment Mr. Roosevelt by his er- ratic and vacillating course, his lack of moderation and judgment, his re- fusal to weigh his words or consider their consequences, is in danger of do- img almost as much injury to legiti- mate as to illegitimate business inter- ests. The World believes in the. enforce- ment of the Sherman law, and the anti- rebate laws. It would like to see E. H. Harriman sent to jail his lezal convict *or evidence could b® obtained to him.

It would like to see John D. Rocke- feller personally punished for offenses committed by the Standard Oil Co. It would like to see at least one great trust Manager who deliberately violated the Federal statutes sent to jail to en- courage the others, It believes Mr. Roosevelt should exert all his power to send at least one powerful and wea'thy criminal to the penitentiary. if this were Mr. Roosevelt's policy and purpose the World would have no complaint, and legitimate business in- terests could have no complaint, but if Mr. Roosevelt has a fixed ::nd consstent policy and purpcse we vhat it is

GOING AWAY? : Upon request, the Post-Dispatch will be mailed to subscribers while out of the city Address may be changed as often as desired. Terms by mail 45 cents per month in advance ONE LID THAT MUST BE TAKEN OFF. Gov. Folk has said that 12 good men could se- the enforcement of the laws in St. Lonis County if they really wanted to. The Post-Dispatch believes that one man of the right sort could do it. He would not long be without company. It is the history of nearly all reform move- ments that there is much thundering in the index before any real progress is made. While this may be necessary as an introduction, there is nothing that lawbreakers and corruption- ists heed less than oratory and fine writing. Throwing tufts of grass at long range never yet disturbed a crook or reformed an abuse. Bricks and rocks of fact and logic and law must fly before anything can be accomplished. ‘The evils in St. Louis County have been writ- ten against and spoken against at a distance long enough. It is time now to grapple with them at close quarters. The best and practically the only way to do this is by means of a committee of citizens, men and women, who will be acquainted with the sit- uation and who will not hesitate to use the in- formation which comes to their hands. There must be a separation of the sheep from the goats. The issue between law and no law must be sharply drawn. The people who stand openly for bwhenmnees must be made to understand that there are others who stand with greater zeal and courage for order and decency. ° This is no holiday work, but it is work which will have its compensations in many directions. _ So far as St. Louis County is concerned, there is no lid save that which someone has placed on the law-abiding element. This particular lid must be taken off. The Post-Dispatch intends to find 12 good men in St. Louis County who will not hesitate to per- form their civic duty. There need be no doubt of their existence. They must be found. They must be organized. They must be inspired to the work. fi, a "vw

Reasons are plentiful why the Democratic con- vention might with propriety come to St. Toais; not the least of which is the fact that the great- est Coliseum in the country will be completed in time for the gathering. Wherefore, let the Business Men’s League and the rest of us persist in our demands for both conventions, and be satisfied with no less than one of them. _=_ = * —— - i i Prosecuting Attorney Johnston is;so well forti- fied in his what-are-you-going-to-do-about-it pol- icy that he says he does not take the trouble to read any of the charges that are made against him. This will not matter much in the case that has just been begun at Clayton. The court and the jury and the people will read the complaint and that is likely to®answer every purpose. dir» tp. i WE ARE CHARGING TOO MUCH FOR WATER. An annual balance of over a million dollars in the Water Department, after paying all operating expenses, interest on bonds, and for necessary ex- tensions and improvements, has set city officials to considering means by which the money may be legally transferred to the general Municipal Rev- enue Fund to meet current expenses and special appropriations. These officers are at work on the ~rong end of the problem. The plain logic of the situation is that water rates ought to be reduced. In the nature of a commodity or facility serving a uni- versal public necessity, water should be supplied by the municipality at cost. It cannot be made too cheap. Water rates should not be made a special means of direct taxation, or a supplemental means. No justification can be found for placing such a burden as that upon the poor. There are some municipal utilities which do not sustain themselves, and under certain conditions it is proper to make the remunerative pay for the unremunerative, instead of referring the whole burden to direct taxation. But no such case is exhibited here. In any event inequity would result from charg- ing high prices for water in order to create gen- eral revenue. The balance of more than a million on the books should be wiped out by a reduction in rates. Unless rates are reduced the balance will grow, to the benefit of nobody under the present system. - = = = Sa a If Mr. Bryan cannot patch up that rickety old fusion between the Democrats and Populists of Nebraska, he will come into the next Democratic national convention with a noticeable limp.

> >. — a or FOR THE HOUSE OF DELEGATES TO SAY. A House of Delegates honestly interested in the City of St. Louis would have acted promptly on the location of the free bridge. The people who elected the delegates are virtu- ally unanimous in the demand for a free bridge, with the least possible delay. Opposed to them is a monopoly, comprising a few individuals but representing money and prop- erty, that finds profit in the delay—that fought the bridge movement from the first and will fight it to the last. Between these two interests—the people and the monopoly—stand the delegates. Whom will they serve—Whom are they serv- ing? If they maintain that they are still in the service of the people, then. why do they cater to the purposes of the monopoly? = = wre Judge Ryors, who has held court in the county for a few weeks, opines that the world is con- stantly growing better. That may be true with- out helping St. Louis County any. What is want- ed at Clayton just now is not a telescope, but a pair of spectacles.

re ow —_—— THE PLATITUDINOUS MR. WOLF. While there will be no disposition anywhere to prejudge Francis M. Wolf, who has been ap- pointed special prosecutor in St. Louis County, it is to be regretted that he is not better known as an uncompromising foe of lawlessness and corruption. The place to which he has been assigned is not one for the display of the judicial temperament. It calls for zeal, energy and partisanship in favor of thé people. With this in mind we have only to say that Mr. Wolf’s remarks on accepting the office were not particularly reassuring. They were platitudinous nothings. not indicate either knowledge or vigor. Time will show what Mr. Wolf is made of and what his intentions are. If he is to succeed he will have to divest himself of the idea that a prosecutor’s mouth must be adjusted at all times to pie, prunes and prisms. = = = » gt, al Columbus discovered America and Columbus, O., seems to have discovered something like American statesmanship. .

a A ie a CHEAP TRICKERY BY THE WESTERN UNION. By admissions which can have only one inter- pretation, representatives of the Western Union Telegraph Co. admit that they have forwarded messages by mail. To plead that all such uave been received ‘sub- ject to delay” is no excuse whatever. Delay is relative. What would-be considered delay in a telegraph company would be expedition in a rail- way company. The point is that the telegraph companies are charged with receiving money for services which they do not render and which they do not expect to render. If they know that they cannot forward a mes- sage by wire, they should not accept it. If they do accept it in the hope that they will be able to handle it promptly and then find that it must be transmitted by mail, they should refund the money. — _ Jt_is a small business for a great corporation to charge 35 cents for a service which is not rendered, or for a service which anyone can ob-

ee LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE. Why Men Decline to Rise. To the Editor of the Post- -Dispatch. In regard to “A Smoked Strap Hanger’s” letter of last night, I would like to add another reason as to why the ‘Masculine Gender” don’t always get up to give a lady a seat, and this is the fact that a great many times the person who gets up to give the lady his seat will get in return a cold, stony stare and after this happens about twice & man takes joy in seeing a woman stand, and in fact sometimes, when he thinks of the last one he gave his seat to, hopes that her shoes are a couple of sizes too small for her. . MASCULINE GHNDER. Logic of Chouteau Av. Site To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. As a man who has worked om the river for twen- ty-five yedrs, I ask permission to make a few state- ments about the free bridge. All the arguments seem to have been in favor of a north side site. As far as navigation is concerned the Chouteau ave- nue site is far the most preferable. There are sev- eral strong points against locating the bridge be- tween the Merchants and Eads structures. First, the Government would never approve of such a prop- osition. ‘Secondly, the lack of data as to depth, foundation, etc., would necessarily retard a start, and thirdly, knowing the first objection to be sound, the corporations, owning the Eads bridge, are en- couraging North Side People to object to the Chau- teau avenue location for a very simple reason. The free bridge, once built, would stop all revenue to the Eads bridge and therefore they hope to make the enterprise as hopeless as possible, feeling sure that in this way, they will be able to unload the Eads bridge on the city. OLD TIMER.

Preventing Strikes. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. In your issue of Aug. 19, George A. Ritter’s letter asks “a way to_end strikes.” I believe I can answer his question. When a strike comes the in- come of the members cease. I would have the sal- aries of the officers of the striking union also cease and the strikers owe it to themselves to adopt some such plan. Let newspapers and the Associated Press agree, in the event of a strike, to omit the names of the principals on both sides, give all the news, what the union did or said, and what the company did or said, but studiously omit all names. The fact exists that the papers are responsible for the continuance of two-thirds of the strikes that occur. The constant desire of the officers te get their names before the public is one of’ the great- est causes of the (imaginary) troubles that are be- ing invented’ and hatched. The officers of some of the unions are very estimable men and are Known to few persons outside of their fellow members, but the overweaning desire to pose as great leaders and be brought in contact with other great leaders or has wrecked many unions and caused wide- spread misery to its members. It is a proud day when a strike is ordered, and the utterances, ‘‘this is a fight to the finish,’’ “‘the day of compromise is passed,” ‘‘I am well pleased with the situation,” “T have the men well in hand,” and such like are published and telegraphed. The ‘thrill’ of such publicity nas deprived many leaders of their fecl- ing of responsibility to their members. CARPENTBR MILLWRIGHT. Women in Business Life. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. As a young woman who has attained a measure of success in the business world, but who has never- theless lived quite apart from that world and who finds her greatest happiness in the pursuit of those interests which are near and dear to the mind and heart of every earnest woman, I wish to say that in my opinion neither Mr. Schwab nor Mrs. Fish has touched the mainspring of our present diffi- culties. I would not relegate woman to the prov- ince of housework nor deny to her every possible intellectual advantage consistent with the great purposes of her life. When it comes to the ques- tion of breadwinning, however, I feel that a wom- an’s choice of a vocation is largely a choice among evils. I am so much & Woman that I cannot con- ceive of any great amount of satisfaction to be rea- lized from the highest success I may ever attain in the business world. My ambition is (and I believe it is still the ambition of every true woman, to rule in the heart and in the home of a noble man— a man who is so far my superior in business ability that I can look up to him always, while the shall on the other hand look up to me as his superior in those other attainments which are distinctly feminine, and at the same time we may be equals and enjoy the most satisfying companionship in all lines of thought and feeling toward which our mu- tual desires may attract us. Did you ever know of a man loving a woman because of her business abil- ity, or because of her successful career? But it is chiefly from a physical viewpoint that I am opposed to the business career for a woman. I speak from a considerable observation of existing conditions among the women employes of several large com- mercial centers, both north and south, and I do not think that I overestimate the matter in saying that three-fourths of the girls who continue in business pursuits for even five years become physica] wrecks for the remainder of their lives. The Creator has perfectly designed woman for her high and noble calling, that of wifehood, motherhood, and when she enters a sphere in life which is contrary to nature— whatever her ability in such sphere may be, or her success—she does so with the certain result of being more or less incapacitated for fulfilling her highest destiny- B.C.

GREAT CHANCE IN MISSOURI FOR LUTHER BURBANK. ES, indeed, if Luther Burbank, wizard of the graft, * Cared to win Missouri’s blessing with ‘his handicraft— All that’s necessary, dearie, to enslave us at his feet, Is that Luther make our paw-paw good to eat. Think of all the paw-paws growing in Missouri’s hills, Soon to ripen in the bushes by the singing rills— All that’s necessary, dearie, to our happiness complete, Is that Luther Burbank make them good to eat. Think of how the greedy ’possums and the paw-paw loving ’coons Will make banquet on them under silvery September moons— All that’s necessary, dearie, to admit us to that treat, Is that Luther Burbank make them good to eat. O, how often have we tried them, seeming as bananas quite, Only to reject them sadly, proving tasteless at a bite— All that’s necessary, dearie, to their being very sweet, Is that Luther Burbank make them good to eat. Just a touch of Luther’s magic, if he haply wills, Will suffice to start us running wildly for the hills All that’s necessary, dearie, to our going straight and fleet, Is that Luther Burbank made them good to eat. Great, indeed, our obligation an the wizard should transmute And restore to us delicious this almost Missouri fruit— Benefactor would we hail him, all ecstatic in his feat, If he made Missouri’s paw-paw good to eat.

“Three collisions and two explosions.” THE CABINET MEETS. The Cabinet had assembled. “Well?” said the President. “I have the honor to report the head of the Sugar Trust in prison,” said Mr. Bonaparte. ‘“‘Nothing,”’ said Mr. Root. “Six big land thieves sent over the road,"’ said Mr. Garfteld. ‘“‘Nothing,’”’ said Mr. Strauss. “The. wives of four more army of- cers barred from the campus at West Point,”’ said Mr. Taft. ‘“‘Nothing,”’ said Mr. Meyer. “The head of the Beef Trust has been put in a dungeon," said Mr... Wilson. “‘Nothing,”’ said Mr. Metcaif. “I have had the eagle on our coin- age replaced with a Teddy bear,” said Mr. Cortelvou. Rising, the President said: “Messrs. Bonaparte, Garfield, Taft and Wilson may run along. Messrs. Reot, Strauss, Meyer and Metcalf will remain after school 3¢ mini:tes, apd Mr. Cortelyou gets this big red apple.’ THE JAMES INFLUENCE. President Rooseveit’s speeches are be- ginning to reveal a marked Henry James influence. For instance, this sen- tence (') from his Provincetown ad- dress sounds like Henry at his pest: “Most of it I believe to be due to matters not particularly confined to the United States and to matters wholly unconnected with any governmental ac- tion, but it may well be that the de- termination of the Government—in which, gentlemen, it will not waver— to punish certain malefactors of great wealth has been responsible for some- thing of the troubles, at least to the ex- tent of having caused these men to combine to bring about as much finan- cial stress as they possibly can in or- der to discredit the policy of the Gov- ernment and thereby io secure a re- versal of that policy so that they may enjoy the fruits of their own evil do- ings.”’ Now, breathe.

THE THREAD GOUGE.|~ Brom the Philadelphia Public Ledger. The recent advance in the retail price of ordinary grades of sewing cotton from 5 to 6 cents a spool, which was put into effect by the Thead Trust in this country arid Great Britain, em- phasizes the discrepancy iny the values}

parison with those given to their Eng- lish cousins by the two British compa- nies, which virtually control the manu- facture and sale of thread in all parts of the world. Comparison tetween the sizes of the spools sold in this country and abroad at the same price tell the story. British customers of the trust pay 3 cents for a spool containing 200 yards. For the same spool here 6 cents is charged—yet the tariff duty amounts to only 1 cent on every 200 yards. In other words, the 6-cent spool in Great Britain contains twice as much thread as the 6-cent spool here, and the addi-« tional price paid in this country is three times the duty. Blame for this condition is wholly laid at the doors of the trust, since the as- sertions of the threadmakers that the raw matewal costs more in this coun- try than in Great Britain is easily dis- proven. The world has free trade in cotton and the raw material for cotton thread is delivered at mills in England and this country at virtually the same‘ price.

Bonds for the People. From the New York World, The wish which was father to the fear that the experiment of selling city bonds ‘“‘over the counter’’ would be a failure has not been realized. The public has shown its appreciation of the opportunity of investing in a first-class 4 per cent security at par by buying more of the bonds within three days than were sold altogether as a re- sult of the preliminary advertising for bids at the second trial. It has been a repetition on a smaller scale of the suc- cessful plan of selling Government bonds direct to the people which The World advocated and carried through during Mr. Cleveland's administration. Apparently the only persons disap- pointed are the brokers and those who see a fancied loss of dignity In the sale by the city of its securities in small lots. It is of advantage to the city that its stock should be absorbed by small holders. The fact that such investors have preferred the city’s 4 per cent stock to railway and industrial stocks now selling at prices which net from 6 to 10 per cent on the investinent speaks well for their conservative judgment. Incidentally it illustrates their prefer- ence for dealing directly with princi- nals rather than through brokerage houses.

to be fashions in heroines’ names and in the naming of books. For example, this year the name of “Kather- ine’ is a particular favorite as the name for the princtpal character. Of course, it isn't really a matter of fash- lon or of imitation, for the different writers have no knowledge of what names are to be used by other writers who are to have works published at the same period; but the similarities are oftentimes striking and curious. To mention only a few of the books that have appeared this year: Cather- ine Murchison is the heroine of “A Woman's War,” Lady Katherine de Vaucelles is the heroin® of ‘“Needies and Pins,”” Katherine Crichton is the heroine of “Katherine,.”’ the Princess Catharine is the heroine of Margaret Potter's “The Princess,”” and, it may be added, Katherine Cecil Thurston is the author of “The Mystica.’’ It is curious, too, that this year should show both “‘The Princess” and Florence Morse Kingsley's “The Prin- cess and the Ploughman:"’ that there should be “A Woman's War” and “The Talking Woman; that there should be “Needies and Pins” and “Through the Eye of the Needle.” Making the Most of Things.

i ew blouse by the diagram on my face’ --Philadeiphia Inquirer. | * This Is the View of a Writer for the Post-Dispatch BY HELEN VAIL WALLACE. ————————

— THOUGHTFUL, considerate youth of twenty, propéinds A “Why should not woman have an equal right with man in proposing marriage to her ideal?’ I am tolé that most marry; that when a woman does not marry it ts usually because no asked her to; that this fs held as something of a reflection on her and is somewhat embarrassing to her. If this be true, then this embarrass- ment need not exist if woman were permitted to propose; for if she mn mained single, It would be thought that she did so because she, Wad not propos- ed to any one and because ‘she prefered to live her own seperate, independent life.’ is ; : ‘ In reply, I must say that I know of no common-sense, unseatimental rea- son why any feminine denizen of Uncle Sam's domain may not legitimately possess herself.of her ideal husband along with her other up-to-@ate appro- priations. Besides, our Declaration of Independence provides for the equal right if all mankind (including woman) to life, liberty and the pursult @f happiness. All thet stands in woman’s way is that natural—or unatural—edict \of popular prejudice that woman shall not take the initiative in love-making a ’ There was a time in the history of the world when man was | when he was a weak, subservient, timid little creature, that ; powerful, Amazonian woman—had to pursue and capture. It Is sad even yet, how terrifying this must have been to poor little man. As peats itself, the time is no doubt fast approaching when woman will privileges with man in the matter of capturing a mate, just as she is ing his prerogatives along other lines of industry. Most foreigners consider our women dominating, tyrannical and place, and are prone to regard our men—our charmingly courteous and sive men—as defective, in some way, to tolerate such tyranny. But we cannet permit ourselves to be judged by foreign standards. We are a progressive rae of women and cannot be hehded off by any amount of adverse criticiem. ‘+ Indeed, yes! Of course, I think that woman should be permitted to x along with her other manifold present-day privileges, and that man—regal —should, for a period, at least, be caused to tread the lonely path of igno! re one having ‘‘a defective personality,” as one “who has never been 0.”’ ___ Taking turns is only fair.

TITLES AND GOLD BRICKS. Only in America Does the Wife Have a Square Deal Says This Post-Dispatch Writer | BY NIXOLA GREELEY-SMITH. Ret

HE most remarkable feature of the international marriage is that notwithstanding its prohibitive percentage of failure the game goes merrily on, and nearly every week brings ite quota of engagements of American giris to foreign neblemen. If Anna Gould has really learned enough from the failure of her venture into gilded matrimony not toe ré- peat it she will prove herself an exceptional woman. ret It has always been @ source of wonder to me that the Americap.wo- man, so keen in her perception in other matters, so excellent at driving a bargain, should so persistently continue to waste her money and to her heart on the foreign title gold brick. eh Any American woman who, being able to marry an American man, chooses a foreign husband Is like a slave who, being told he was free end having his shackles stricken from him, should deliberately put them on again and rivet them forever. | The “square deal” between men and women does hot exist In Burope. it is entirely an American invention. Every American man worthy of the name tries to deal honestly and squarely with the woman he marries. Sometimes he falls, but at any rate he makes an-effort, which is more than any foreign nobleman thinks his wife entitled to. , ee It is hard enough for two persons with the same training and edudca- tion to weather the matrimonial trip together, even when each starts with the strongest possible equipment of love and faith. Netther of these es- sentials to happy marriage enters into the foreign alliance, and if, Anna Gould has learned enough frem her first miserable venture to save her from a second, she is to be congratulated. But it is useless to expect that other title-seeking foolish virgins will profit by her experience. : SCIENCE AND PLUMBAGO. LUMBAGO, popularly biack lead, scientifically graphite, got its name, says - the Ironmonger, from the assumption that it contained lead; and, indeéd, kel found in 1597 that what we now call graphite yielded no lead and he called it sterile plumbago. Scheele, in 1789, proved that it was an allotropis form of carbon.

‘By 1 a@ system of false orders George nN Taylor, 23 years old, a stock clerk, says he succeeded in systematically rob- bing his employers for several months. He is fockéd up in the Central Dis- trict holdover, while detectives, accom- _ panied’ by representatives of the Sim- mons Hardware Co., the victim of his ee ol are visiting pawnshops in an ef- fort to recover many valuable sets of _ draftsmen’s tools. - Taylor was arrested in his room at 1727 Locust street. Sets of tools valued at $15 and $8 jwere sold at $159 and = $2. Taylor’s arrest was the result of the finding of several draftsmen’'s sets in @ Market street pawnshop. ‘Taylor’s system of stealing was orig- final, according to his confession. When he wanted money he wrote out a fake for draftsmen’s tools and pre- i aented it to the chief stock clerk. Then che would pocket the goods. He selected | ‘s tools, he says, because 1 inclose in small cases which | pe could easily slip into his pocket. One of the managers of the Simmons company, to whom Taylor appealed for -Jenjency, would not say whether the firm would prosecute or not. Taylor broke down when the manager would i give him any encouragement. 7 WILLAGE HAN LEGAL EXISTENCE Custom Has i teat Rights of Towns.

MONTGOMERY CITY, Mo., Aug. 21.— For many years the various small towns in Missouri! known as villages have had @ questionable legal existence, but ac- cording to a verdict rendered by Circuit Judge Barnett of this city in the case of Senator A. H. Drunert and others of Jonesburg, villages have rights to levy and collect taxes. The main grounds of the defense sect up by the Senator and others was that the Constitution of this State does not authorize the incorporation of villages such as Jonesburg and that therefore it could not tax its citizens. Judge Barnett held that, while there may be a doubt _ as to whether the Constitution allows _ such corporation, yet, inasmuch as many villages nad become incorporated with- in the last 30 years it amounted to a construction of the Constitution on the part of the 6. 9f.their own organic | law and to rt from it would work ‘Incalculable. injury to the people gen- erally. With that as the main reason he entered judgment for the taxes against the Senator and others who were involved in the suit. Leading lawyers are of the opinion that the Supreme Court will affirm the judgment, which will mean that all the villages throughout Missouri! have a }e- gal existence and a right to assess and swenpet taxes. a -

TO GET LICENSES Text-Book Concerns’ Dereliction Discovered by Missouri Sec- retary of State.

Special to the Post-Dispateh. JEFFERSON CITY, Aug. vestigation of the records office by Secretary of Swanger has disclosed that of the many publishing houses which have made contracts to furnish text- books in Missouri has complied with the law requiring foreign corpora- tions to be licensed by the Sécretary of State. The penalty for the transaction of business in Missouri by a foreign cor- poration without a license is a fine of $1000. The Secretary said he had decided to write to each of the companies, calling their attention to their failure to comply with the law. He declined to say that he would institute prose- cutions against the companies if they failed to obtain licenses. Twenty-three publishing houses have complied with the _ text-book law passed by the last Legislature. Under an opinion by Judge Mar- shall, formerly a member of the §Su- preme Court, contracts made with for- eign corporations not licensed in this State, are void. Under that decision, tention of the Secretary counties making book companies, 21.,—In- of his State not one of State, the) books purchased.

The third meeting of the Village Board of Trustees of Nattonal City, the home of the National Stock Yards and packing plants adjoining Fast St. Louis, will be held Wednesday night at the National Hotel to elect officers for the village. A Mayor, village mar- shal, clerk and treasurer will be named. Uncertainty as to the exact status of the new village organization on ac- count of the resolution presented to the County Board of Supervisors de- claring that Stites Township was ille- gally created and asking that the prop- erty be made a part of Centerville Station Township, has caused the de- lay in completing the village organiza- tion. Stites Tow aehip contains much less than 16 square miles, the legal min- imum for a township, and with the taxes from the stockyards and pack- ing plants, is one of the richest town- ships in the world of its size. Center- Ville Station contains much more than 16 square miles and is heavily in debt.

WHEAT ADVANCES THREE CENTS ON STRONG DEMAND - Confirmation of Frost Damage Caused Anxious Covering Among Shorts.

FOREIGN INQUIRY STRONG

Coarse Grains Strengthened by Poor Weather—Cash Demand Very Strong.

Local wheat was in a very strong po- sition throughout Wednesday's session and the close was to 3c higher for the day. Liverpool cables closed Id to 1%d higher. Heavy frosts were confirmed from numerous sources in the North- west. and Canada, and the very low temperatures in those regions continue. Very pessimistic crop reports come from Western Canada, where it ig thought that a crop disaster has occurred fn the past few days, and points in North Da- kota and other Northwestern states re- ported severe damage from frost and cold. The threshing operations in the winter wheat belt are seriously imped- ed by the rains and cool weather and returns are still very small. —Consider- able damage to whea tin shocks was also reported. The movement of win- ter wheat to the Western markets con- tinues heavy. but shipments from most points were liberal, and in store stocks showed a comparatively smali increase. The strong export demand continued, and bids from abroad were plentiful and the prices higher. There was a large domestic and forcign business in wheat, and shipments from the interior to the seaboard, the lakes and the gulf very large. Export business in and the Minneapolis export trade A good flour locally, ship- and the do- was strong. “7. were flour in fiour increased sharply. business was also done ments being quite large, mestic and foreign inquiry It was reported that many loads of wheat and flour were marked cleared from the seaboard, but th efigures were unobtainable. The movement of old spring wheat to the Northwestern mar- kets continues light, and the cash de- mand there is strong, with supplies steadily decreasing. Bradstreet reports an increase of 682,000 bu in wheat east of the Rocky Mountains, an increase of 100,000 bu wheat in Europe and afloat, and a total increase of 782,000 bu in the world’s visible supply of in

wheat. The shorts were in a scramble to cov- er at the opening, being alarmed at the

When this level was reached there was some dullness, and the demand appear- ing to have been exhausted, prices sagged a fraction. The damage reports were renewed late in ine day, however, and Bradstreet’s was considered bullish, the increase of less than 800,000 bu being compared with one of over 3,000,000 bu the same week last vear. Buying was renewed and prices again advanced sharply, closing practically at the high point and 2%@8c higher for the day. September wheat opened %c higher at Rilec, advanced steadily to Sic, sagged to R65ec, advanced to S7lec, sagged to &Tuc and closed at 87% sellers. December wheat opened 4%@%c higher at 9c, ad- vanced to 9ic, sold down to (5c, ad- vanced to 92c, sagged to 91\%c, advanced to 925%c and closed at 92%c. There was a very strong cash demand for wheat and holders were slow in of- fering any fresh wheat. Prices were sharply higher. Local receipts of wheat were 120, bu, against 74,648 bu Iast vear. and shipments were 88,350 bu. Re- ceipts of wheat at Chicago were 427,882 bu. against 297,645 bu last year, and shipments were 46,304 bu. The chief. strengthening factor in wheat, the Northwestern frost. was also the feature in corn, and the latter grain is reported to have suffered consider- able damage from this source. The weather in other parts of the corn belt is also unfavorable and the movement continues comparatively light, though the present high prices is bringing for- ward considerable corn. Offerings of corn were light and the demand stronr and at the close prices were lec to ic higher for the day. Trading was active i throughout. The world’s visible supply The light
