No weakling need apply when the James Stewart Conatruction Co. begins @ scientific battie against the quicksand that has thus far prevented the sinking of piers for the National Bank of Com- merce aduiiicn 2t Broadway and Pine etreet. To the physical courage of the men who are sent down, one at a time, to delve in the face of death #0 feet below the surface of Broadway, must be add- ed sound lungs, strong hearts and quick wits. Every moment vf their labors far below the helping hands of their fellows will be a test for each faculty of body and brain. The men whom the company will put at this work will be brought to St. Louis from other cities—most of them from New York, where they have learned their hazardous trade. For ex- perience is the price of whatever safe- ty can be assured in the midst of so Many dangers. The thing called ‘‘caisson”’ in this in- stance will be a circular tube of steel, shaped like a cartridge shell, six téet jn diameter. Its edges wit’ be sharp, so that under the weight of concrete - which will be poured into this tube it *wi.l cut its way through the clay and sand to bedrock. Into this larger tube will be sunk a smaller one—30 inches in diameter—just ‘as if a pipestem were run through a large bamboo.

MORGAN CHASES EXPRESS TRAN Financier Travels Twelve Miles in 16 Minutes in Auto to Catch Car He Missed.

Bpecial to the Post-Dispatch. PITTSFIELD, Mages., Sept. 9.—J. Pier- pont Morgan broke some records yes- terday in auto speeding. He had missed the ‘“‘Millionaires’ Express’’ for New York and chased it for 12 miles, which he accomplished in 16 minutes. » Mr. Morgan has been staying with a party of friends who have been spending a few days with Charles Lanier at the latter’s Lenox esiate. As if was necessary for Mr. Morgan to be in New York this morning, he de- cided to take the millionaires’ express on the New York, New Haven & Hart- ford Railway from Pittsfield. He en- teréd Mr. Lanier’s $15,000 machine and drove to Pittsfield, reaching the station just as the train passed out of sight around a curve. Mr. Morgan was much annoyed and Station Agent Gleason was asked to wire to Lee to have the train held. This he agreed to do, and the race after the train began. The automobile traversed the streets of Pittsfield at an alarmingly high rate of speed, but when the open country Was reached the real race began. A fine State highway covers the entire 12 miles from Pittsfield to Lee, passing through the town of Lenox, where there is a “trap,”’ with watchful officers on guard. The big car flew over the Smooth road, attaining a speed close to sixty miles an hour. No attention was paid to the Lenox “‘trap,’’ although the speed was diminished going through the town. The automobile covered the distance to Lee in 16 minutes and found the train waiting, having been held only a minute. Mr. Morgan was frightened at the terrific speed and asked the driver to slow up.

FRANCE PREVENTS STOCK WATERIN Lilbum G. McNair Says European Countries Are Models for United States. a Lilburn G. McNair, real estate oper- ator, who has just returned from Eu- rope, believes that the system there of regulating the amount of- stocks and bonds issued by a railroad does more to protect the public than all the legis- lation has accomplished in the United States. I hadd a great trip abroad and met many charming people, both foreigners and Americans,’’ said Mr. McNair. *‘The money rates of the world are higher than they have been, and Europeans do not at this time look with much favor on American: securities. Still they are willing to make some kind of invest- ments, and my trip was satisfactory. “The money value of our farm prod- ucts is greater than ever before, and I see we are already doing some eport- ing which is very encouraging—Europe needs our farm products. ‘Prices in Wall street necessarily ef- fect the whole country to some extent, but not so much as formerly. The en- forced liquidation was brought on by the irregularities committed, which de- stroved confidence, and good securities suffered along with the bad. In s2sme of the European countries the issues of bonds and stocks on railroads is regu- lated. This is the greatest prote:ctis= that can be given the public and far more reaching in its effect than all the railroad iegislation ever effected in this country. $f a commission composed of experienced, practical and broad-minded men were appointed to supervise, ap- prove and regulate the issue of rallroad securities and to see that such issues are in accordance with legitimate re- quirements with the view of encourag- ing rather than hampering the railroads in making extensions. improvements and betterments, it. would be a boon to the investor, merchant, manufacturer, farm- er and all others, and would go very far towards making them all partners in the general development of our coun- try. The railroads themselves are al- ways the pioneers. Faith in Real Estate. “It is quite common to hear Wall street people lay the blame of the pres- ent trouble to the so-called real estate boom, but they are mistaken. The peo- ple have quit buying their stocks and bonds because they have no confidence in them and do not know what they are getting. They prefer to buy some- thing they can see, and they have con- fidence in the growth of all our large cities.. “Railroad bonds at the start are usu- ally issued in amounts largely in excess of the cost of construction and they generally keep on issuing them in some form or other while real estate loans (now preferred by most of the largest insurance companies to all other forms of investment) are secured by a first mortgage upon real estate on a basis of about 60 Der cent of its actual valu- ation. “New York 4% per cent bonds wil]! be taken over @t @ small premium by a syndicate in which foreigners will be interested, I think, for Mr. Metz, Comp- troller, was abroad. Boston 4 per cent bonds are being sold over the country at par. Merchants are buying in New York, and doing so with confidence, and I am told they are doing so here. View- ing the situation calmly, it does not seem that anything disastrous will oc- cur, though retrenchment may be neces- sary in some directions and doubtless some contemplated work may be post- poned until mney conditions are more favorable. When Mr. McNair was asked What po- litical news he had heard. he said: “Missouri will forge to the front in the next election. I see Goy. Francis is to be chairman of the Democratic National Convention, and I hear Senator War- ner’s name mentioned for Vice-President with Gov. Hughes of New York for President. How's that for a combina- tlon—New York and Missouri ?’’ Rev Mr. Russell Goes 4, Nebraska. Rev. Francis W.

TEDDY'S TOOTH NCRIO SHO New York Dealer Says He Can Prove That It Was Presi- dent’s Intisor. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Sept. $—Tis whispered that one of the incisots which Presi- dent Roosevelt flashes every time he says “De-light-ed” is false. Else how could Robert Jordan, curio dealer of Lexington avenwté and Sixtieth street, be in possession of a tooth of which he swears he has the properly authenticated record to prove that it once troubled the brilliant and famous galaxy that adorns the Presidential smile of today. Robbed of its place amid its com- paniones which were to become famous and historical because of its proneness to jump and buck like a bucking bron- cho, this tooth has found tts-- way through devious history into the odds and ends of the curio shop. No Doubt of Its Lineage. Jordan says there is no doubt that it is a Rooseveltian tooth, the only one out of captivity. He has testedkits firm- ness, its hardness and its cleaving edge. It was in its prime, says he, when the now President was eating salt horse and jerked venison on the plains of Wyoming, and had it not been for its shortcomings it might still be among the famous collection in its own» place, instead of living to see a false usurper there. This tooth, the presidential tooth, this recollection of gas and forceps, truly lies in state. It is set in a Woman’s ring, studded with two white diamonds and its value—well, there is no assay- ing its value unless you look at it with an open mind and believe all the curio man has to say of it.

AMBUSHED MAN TRIED FOR MURDER Illinoisan Shot Father and Son Who Attacked Him for Help- ing Arrest Them.

By Long Distance Telephone to the Post-Dispatch. SPARTA, Iil., Sept. 9.—The trial of Noah J. Breidenstein on a charge of murder commenced here today. Brei- denstein shot and killed Milton Hubert and his son, Milton Hubert Jr., negroes, in a revolyer duel on the street a year ago. A few nights before the killing Brei- denstein, who is a prominent citizen, had aided the marshal in arresting the Huberts and taking them to jail for creating a disturbance in a saloon. They swore vengeance. When they were released they lay in wait for Breidenstein on the street and attacked him. He shot and killed both of them. He was tried and acquitted of the charge of murdering the father and is now being tried for killing the son.

J. M. Sheedy and W. A. McKenzie, members of the St. Louis Fire Depart- ment, were arrested by Officers Klamm and Mertens at the Belleville Fair Jrounds Sunday just after the water fight at the Southern Illinois Firemen’s field day exercises. The only entries in the water fight were men from the Mascoutah and St. Louis departments. Three men on each side grasped nozzles and played water at full pressure on men of the opposite side. During the bath one of the St. Louis men grabbed a competitor around the neck, causing the Maucou- tah men to drop their hose. Words en-

“FIRST IN EVERYTHING.” ATTORNEY WOL?T NO SNAKEHUNTER. St. Louis County did not need a special prose- cutor to hunt for legal niceties which would pro- tect derelict officials from prosecution. Attorney Wolf was not appointed to find tech- nical loopholes, but rather to discover guilt, if it existed, and to devise substantial means of reach- ing and punishing it; yet his explorations have resulted in nothing more than a careful distinction drawn in favor of county incumbents whom, by in- ference, he finds to be moraily guilty only. If “moral guilt” may be taken to mean guilty to a moral certainty, then Mr. Wolf‘ought to see what can be made of it under the means offered “by. Jaw and before a jury. If moral guilt indi- cates “only a distinction which everybody knew before, then Mr. Wolf was merely unfortunate in restricting himself to that trite phrase in his in- terview with the Post-Dispatch. To the eyes of most people the moral guilt in the = county offices is of a flagrant kind associated with Graft may not flourish on a magnificent scale in the county, but any kind of graft is more than passive.

When consumers in a dozen other great cities are clamoring for relief from gas rates of 85 cents and under, which they regard as extortionate, it is time for the people of St. Louis to wake up and demand a reduction from a dollar rate, or $1.10. The demand for gas at a reasonable rate is a demand of right. The right of regulating the prices of public utilities is conferred by express law. The last Legislature put it on the statutes and it is now in force. It has been amply demonstrated in investiga- tions carried on in other cities that gas can be made and distributed at a cost of less than fifty | cents. St. Louis pays double the cost for its gas. What is a fair price to pay for anything can be determined best by a reference to cost and sell- ing price. ‘That is the only way of getting at the reasonable price to be paid for a public util- ity. The best service at the least reasonable price is the demand of municipal intelligence, and it is hizh time for the people of St. Louis to take the intelligent course. For years they have been charged usury for the use of capital invested in the gas monopoly. How much longer will they continue to pay it? » ~~ ee Mr. Burton will have the unanimous support of the entire Mississippi Valley in his race for Mayor of Cleveland.

= ™ — A RECURRING “MISSOURI RIVER NOTE.” “Missouri River Notes” are not so voluminous a feature of journalism as they used to be in the cherished long ago, when Kansas City craft) crowded our wharves and the smoke of packets plying between the sister cities limned the sky with a long, dark skein above the: picturesque hills and banks that echoed siren screams in continu- ous chorus. Now, in fact, the “Notes” are reduced to one, and that relates to the gallant steamer Chester, whose master is Mr. Byrd Burton and whose clerk is Mr. George Kennedy. A single note, yet it is an eloquent one; a note at long intervals, yet: persistent and sure to recur sooner or later; a note of cheer, though solitary, like a lone, mournful whistle far off in the night; a note of encouragement and promise, reminding us that the Missouri River is sti open and nav- igable as far at least as “Old K. C.” There are lengthy and seemingly interminable periods when we hear nothing whatever of the Chester. Is she hibernating? Or lost? Or sunk? No; of that we may be certain. She could not get uncer ‘water in the Missouri. , But her whereabouts and fate are to the imag- inative as romantic and mysterious as if she were a pioneer craft of the fur traders in Lewis and Clark’s time, exploring the upper reaches. Only this we know: She has gone and she was well- stocked with provisions, including the spirituous, when she disappeared. Time passes, and more time, and more. Then we read a Missouri River Note. The Chester has arrived at Kansas City! After awhile we read another Missouri River Note; she is de- parting. Another hiatus of dragging hours or days, and she is panting at our wharf. Thus she goes, at. intervals, sturdily plodding her snagful way, bravely, resolutely fighting out a great transportation problem, demonstrating a great engineering fact. A modern pioneer she is of the revival of Mis- souri river traffic, teaching, reminding, beckoning mankind to observe the proof, at intervals, that the river is open. Some day in the not remote future they will heed the valuable lesson which she, at intervals, imparts. Her persistence will triumph and her picture will adorn the walls with those of the “Lee” and the “Natchez.” -—- ——— +--+ ¢o——-_—— One kind of lid ought to be taken off at once, and that is the straw lid. a A i... wae SS ORGANIZING IN THE COUNTY. The movement in St. Louis County to organize a citizens’ committee of 100 should have ample encouragement. Gov. Folk asked first for a committee of 12 and later said that six men of the right sort would answer the purpose. Even he will admit, how- ever, that an organization such as is now suggest- ed would be still better. No matter how comprehensive the. committee may be, a few men will do the work. These few cannot have too much support and encourage- ment. If things in the county have come to such a@ pass as is indicate. by some of the disclosures a committee of 1000 would not be too large. The good citizenship of the county owes such a demonstration as:this would be to itself. Only in this way can the truth be known. It is quite AE important to set scandalous reports at rest, if false, as it is to uisclose the facts and punish the guilty, if they are true. A committee of 100 wisely guided in the be- ginning would soon lack neither recruits nor lead- ership.

a, A, A rer LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE. Asylum for fn Ynebriates. : To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch’ Missouri needs good roads and other god things, but what she most needs js an asylum for inebriates. Thousands of women and children are in peril from drunken men, not to speak of the worry and troubl: that comes with drunkenness in the home. No time should be lost in providing such an asylum, Iowa has one. FIRST AID.

: Persuaders for Delegates. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I think the best way to bring the House of Dele- gates to a proper sense of their duty is for five hun- dred able-bodied citizens to call on them and each citizen have six-foot of rope, and tell them they mean business. This north and south site so much talked about jis only a pretext to kill time. The time has come for the people to act, and act at once—no delay. St. Louis is the laughing stock of the whole country on this free bridge question, and there is no doubt in my mind but there is a nigger in the wood pile. TAX PAYDER.

Stone Age Democrats. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Mr. Charles C. Scott pleads guilty to being one that would rather see Missouri represented by Sen- ator Stone than Senator Folk, and says that there are 100,000 behind him. They must belong to the Stone age, sure enough. He probably has the num- ber large enough, but when it is remembered that there are about 3,500,000 people in Imperial Missouri, his little old 100,000 looks very much like 30 cents after a campaign at a lid lifting bout. It would seem that the president of the Missouri Health Society would have enough to do to look after the enforcement. of the Pure Food law and not be compelled to divide his time with a little side-show affair like the office of United States Senator. Clinton, Mo. INDEPENDENT VOTER. The Reward of Folk. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. In today’s Post-Dispatch a letter is printed, where the writer stands for Stone, and denounces Gov. Folk as a fanatic and no Democrat. Reading farther aown the line we come to a letter headed “Folk and the Lid,”” written by ‘“‘Miss Smith.’ In these two letters the two gentlemen in question are compared, and what a contrast. Miss Smith takes the right view of Mr. Folk, while Mr. Scott does not. Mr. Stone had the same opportunity to do good, to try to clear the state of graft. but did he do it? Now that we have a man, after looking for him for fifty years, as Miss Smith says, who believes in law enforcement, and honesty, what are the thanks? He is denounced as a fanatic and no Democrat, and why? Is it De- cause he isn’t familiar with egg shells, or the bak- inig powder business, or doesn’t he wear the right kind of shoes? H. C. HUBERT. Stop Free Lunches To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. We are now in the midst of a determined effort to stop over-drinking in our State. To me, it seems that one point has been entirely overlooked. Maks the giving away, or selling at cost, of food in a saloon a crime. Many and many a time I have seen reputable citizens go into a saloon—one eye On the freé lunch counter and the other on the bar—as soon as they have ordered a beer, they made a rush for the food and invariably ask for just a small bite, “must eat when I take a drink.” The bites, however large, are frequently called for three or fuur times. Now it seems to me that this custom is simply damnable. It can be defended only on two grounds: either the man is so full of liquid refresh- ment that he must put something solid in his stomach or he its simply a grafter—getting something for nothing. The cause of temperance could do nothing that would so surely stop over-drinking, as by per- suading the city rulers to pass an ordinance—as has been done in Atlanta, Ga.—forgidding under penalty of a $50 fine any serving of free or ‘‘merchants,”’ lunches in any saloon, SALOON COOK.

A Cook’s ‘Judgment on Women. The following letter is from a real ‘“‘cook’’ who has has served prominent and wealthy families in 8t. Iouis. All of her former employers are anxious to have her return to them as is evidenced by urgent written appeals; $30 a month, two meals a day, no washing or housework, delightfully furnished room with bath and other inducements are offered by them -to draw her back from the farm, where she is help- ing her mother. Naturally so valuable a Cook, as her letters indicate she is, should be able to judge inteligently the mistresses under whom she has served. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. If I should speak in favor of the club Woman ft would be the same as speaking in favor of the busi- ness woman. Women entering club work !s about equal to girls working in offices, stores and fac- tories, the consequences are she loses her domes- ticity. I have been employed by both classes; the active Wednesday Club woman, and women who are deeply interested in their homes. The Club Woman may be given lectures on‘: “‘The Home” or “Its In- fluence,"’ or making ‘“‘Home Her Sphere,” and at the same time her servants and perhaps her neighbors will know she sees her home but very little, not home on time of evenings to greet her husband, who gteets her when she comes with a frown on his face. And Oh! that frown does Mean 86 much, If the wealthy well-educated housewife wishes to do some brain work, why not instruct her household help in literary work during their spare time, select g00d books for them to read; good articles in news- papers and magazines, be interested in their welfare and comfort, and broaden their minds. The idea! housewife makes it pleasant for all those who sur, round her. When she visits her friends occasionally she always manages to be home on time to greet her husband with a smile, also looks into the cares and comforts of her maid, is patient, doesn’t let her children and her cares for her home irritate her, and, if she has the proper kind of a maid employed,

THE APARTMENT DWELLERS. The Associated Order of Apartment Dwellers held its first monthly meet- ing Saturday afternoon in Forest Park. There was an attendance of some 700, The better part of the afternoon was of moving vans. Many of the members thought the Association should have its ers put it: “We are continually moving. Many new apartments are building, and as fast as they are completed, we move out of the old ones. I don’t know just why we should have a passion to get into the last apartment built, but we have it. If we maintained our own livery stable our moving bills could be cut in half.”’ It was also suggested that where the Association did its own hauling and was breaking its own things, moving would be attended by fewer perils. The Association finally voted $25,000 for the moving van garage, equipped with six wagons. A number of agents were heard. One of them displayed a non-breakable mir- ror. Another had a varnish which makes scratched mahogany as good as new. During the meeting a nurse passed with a baby, which the apartment dwell- ers regarded with considerable curios- ity. oF COURSE. “What boat will Secretary Taft take for the East?” “He'll go on @ fruiter.” We understand Mise Bertha Angle, who taught the Smoky Row school last winter, hag been employed to teach the winter term at Freeze Out.—Butler (Mo.)

His victory over Nelson has given — ’Britt great confidence in himself, but this will not necessarily affect the bet- — ting on the contest, for James Edward h@s never been lacking in self-confi- dence. The question that will be settled today is whether Gans has suffered as much from the effects of his grueling battle — with Nelson as Nelson has. The Dane showed in his fight with Britt that the Gouww.uweld contest took much of the stam.

hibits betting in the limits of Los An- geles. Barney Schreiber of St. Louis may now come to the front as a ovig man on the coast with a racing plant in his hands. ‘Lucky Baldwin’’ perfect- ed plans whereby a track was to be erected on his property at Arcadia, a town 22 miles from Los Angeles. Work on the new track began this spring. Progress suddenly ceased and it was re- ported that ‘‘Lucky Baldwin’’ was short of ready cash. Lightning, by the way, struck a barn on Schreibers stockfarm in St. Louis County Saturday night and killed two valuable yearlings. Tne revival of work on the proposed track at Arcadia two weeks ago and the presence of 50° teams of horses hauling and leveling dirt, gave color to the story that George Rose and Barney Schreiber, the Missouri breeder and horse owner, had gone to Baldwin's rescue and that they would be financially interested in the new track. Rose, who was at Sheepshead Bay track until Saturday making a_ book, neither denied nor affirmed the story. He said: “Wait a few days and I’ll have some- thing for publication. Maybe there will be a track nearer to Los Angeles than the proposed one at Arcadia. But whether there is one or two, you may state that there will certainly be racing somewhere in lower California this win- ter.’’ Rose will meet in the Windy City to- day Thomas Williams, head of the Cal- ifornia Jockey Club, which controls turf

of this conferenee will decide whether Rose will become interested in the Ar- cadia plant or the one at Venice. Which ever one he selects will be rushed to completion, as he is worth nearly a million dollars and has at his command a large amount of ready money. In con- junction with this power of money, he has also the confidence of horsemen who have made Los Angeles their Mecca during the winter months fer several years. Tom Williams is likely to have a small share of stock. It is certain that Rose will demand some assurance that the California Jockey Club will look upon the new track with favor. Without sanction of some sort a proposed race meeting in lower California might be outlawed by the parent turf body if it is so willed. Curly Brown has been a promoter of racetracks for several years. He was instrumental in the organization of the New Orleans Jockey Club, and he gath- ered together the money which bought, constructed and equipped the City Park track. He went East this summer rich with a scheme to build a racetrack near Los Angeles. He knew that Ascot Park would never reopen as a ractrack. He also knew that there was a rich field in that part of the country for a win- ter race mbeeting, and he tried to find supporters for his plans among the Eastern turfmen. He broached the sub- ject to John W. Gates, but as that noted plunger had sunk a large amount in the Rockland Park track, near Salem, N. H., he turned a deaf ear to Brown's Tactics of His Eleven in This Manner.

The coming football season will wit- ness a material change in the training plans of Eddie Cochems of St. Louis University. Last year the team went through the whole campaign with vir- tually nothing in the line of scrub and scrimmage practice, and the only real workouts the team had were in the games ‘played. Signal and formation work ruled supreme in the daily prac- tice. The result of Cochems’ plan was that he possessed the speediest, cleverest and best-drilled team on offense in the West, but its defense was by no means on a par with its rushing power and was dependent almost entirely on the indi- vidual strength and ability of each man. Their tackling was miserable and the reason that the teams they met did not make a great: impression on their defense was owing mainly to the fact that the team was an aggregation of physical giants, trained to the minute and their brute strength was sufficient to repel all attacks. This was due to no fault of Cochems, who instructed them minutely in the scientific points of defense, but had no second eleven with which to actually demonstrate his ideas. For this Teason the team was rough on its edges and had not that highly developed team work that must characterize any great

Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Sept. 9, 9:30 a. m.—The stock market Monday opened fractionat:- ly lower, the losses averaging not over % point among the rail issues, while many of the leading industriais opened at parity. At the worst view of the opening, however, the industrials suf-

fered less than the rail issues. Steel preferred opened % down and the first half dozen quotations showed gains above the finals of Saturday. The common opened \% off and also took an up turn on the early quotations. — The opening and the first half hour showed not very active trading, and many of the leading rail issues were not yet open at the end of the first quarter hour Reading was among the few thigh openers; St. Paul was another, but the gains were in the smell frac- tions. The best commission house opinion agrees that the London lower opening today was not in response to any in- fluence from this side. Some irregu- larity is expected today, and perhaps lower prices will rule. The financial situativun both at home and abroad held to be improving and some of the market authorities go so far as to an- ticipate a betterment in stock murket prices in advance of any marked im- provement in the bond market. This is because good stocks are so cheap—that is, good 6 and 7 per cent stocks; they demand the attention of the investor equally to the bonds, which bear th: regulation 4 to 5 per cent return. The first half hcur of the market showed no marked increase in transac- tions from the opening. While some in- erease in domestic interest rates may come during the weck, such an out- come would not injure the stock market. Arrangements for the payment of the second installment of Union Pacific con- vertible bonds have been perfected, and no difficulty will be met in that direc- tion. Half-point gains all around were recorded in the leading stock prices at the end of the first half hour. NEW YORK, Sept. 9., 12:30 p. m— Union Pacific, Amalgamated Copper, Steel common and Smelter were the fea- ture as to transactions during the fore- noon market. Still the volume of trans- actions were light, less than 200,000 shares being sold to noon. The anticipated advance in money rates were indicated by the advance of call money from the opening at 3 per cent to 4% per cent just at noon. Smelter showed a gain of % of a point for the forenoon, but Amalgamated Cop- per moved within a range of % a point. In the rail list Atchison and S8t. Paul held gains of % point. With marked activity Union Pacific and Reading made good gains. The former was 1% over the finals of Saturday at the noon hour and Reading was equally as good. NEW YORK, Sept. 9, 3 p. m.—The close of the stock market was steady and practically at the high point for the day, the ma-xet havirg been con- fined to an extremely narrow range and a stnall volume of sales. The average of gains for the day on the rail side was % to 1 point. Union and Southern Pacitic and Reading made the 1 point gains.

HEAVY. PRESSURE ON WHEAT ralbt Liberal Selling Despite Bullish Crop News Depressed Prices Over a Cent.

CANADA REPORTS FROST —— World’s Shipments Large and Afloat Stocks Increased—Cash Demand Mixed.

fecal wheat was active and nervous Monday and at the close prices were 14@i'c lower for the day. Liverpool cables closed unchanged to 1d higher on spot wheat and %d to %d lower on the future. Paris closed \%c to %&c lower on wheat and unchanged to %c lower on fiour. Antwerp glose 1%4c higher on cash wheat. Berlin tures closed %c to 1%c higher and it was a holiday in Budapest. World’s shipments of wheat were 11,058,- 000 bu, against 8,774,000 bu last week and 9,776,000 bu a year ago. The amount of wheat and flour on ocean passage is reported at 30,132,000 bu, against 27,666,- 000 bu last week and 27,624,000 bu a year ago. Frost was reported all along the Ca- nadian line, and was said to have been heavy in some of the largest wheat rais- ing regions of the country. North Da- kota also reported liberal frosts and tem- peratures both in Canada and our North- west are now very low. The present weather, from a study of the official weather map anc supplementary Gov- ernment reports, promises heavy frosts for tonight, and it was predicted that frost will come as far south as Des Moines. Very little threshing is being done in the spring wheat belt, and re- ceipts of both new and old wheat at the Northwestern market were again very light. The cash demand there continues good and shipments large and stocks of epring wheat are still decreasing. Ex- port bids were again plentiful, but offerings have about dried up and little wheat was marked. There were numer- ous bids from Continental Europe at about Saturday’s prices, and exporters on this side were offering wheat at an advance of %c. A good quantity of wheat continues to be moved from the interior to the seaboard, but despite the strong export demand, little wheat was worked for abroad. Canada also report- ed a strong demand from abroad. The movement of winter wheat to the West- ern markets continues heavy, and ship- ments are also liberal, and stocks con- tinue to make moderate increases. Threshing reports from the winter fields were, on the whole, satisfactory, though rather too cold weather and scattered showers were complained of. The tone of the local market was easy throughout, though several temporary rallies were made. The lower Liverpool cables, a large increase in the stocks of wheat afloat, unexpectedly large shipments from Russia, over 2,800,000 bu, and the heavy total shipments from surplus coutrftes were the influences causing the quite long Hquidation. The sentiment in the pit was bearish, and though it was thought that any large- sized buying orders would have caused sharp advance, the demand was not forthcoming and the close was prac- tically at the day’s low point. December wheat opened 4%@%éc lower, at 97%c to 97%c, advanced to 9%@%c, sold down to 97%c, advanced to 97%c, declined to 97c, advanced to 97i4c, was bid up to 97%@%8c, declined steadily to %46ec and closed at 96%c bid. May wheat opened %c lower, at $1.03%c, fluctuated between $1.08%, down to $1.08%, declined to $1.04@%, rallied to $1.08%, down to $1.038%, was bid up to $1.04%, and de- clined steadily to $1.02%@1.03, closing with bids at the latter price. Hard wheat was in good demand and eoft wheat was shrdluetao,lett’vevbgkq higher in price, and soft wheat was dull, weak and easier. The cash market on all wheat was quiet. Local receipts of wheat were 151,288 bu, against 92,405 bu last year, and shipments were 65,720 bu. Chicago receipts of wheat were 219,- 000 bu, against 92,100 bu last year, and shipments were 190,875 bu. Frimary re- neipts of wheat were 1,143,009 bu, against 1,303,000 bu last year, and shipments were 496,000 bu, against 340,000 bu last year. Corn was quiet and the market was inclined to be more governed by the weakness in wheat and the general bearish sentiment in the pit than by the frost predictions and reports, and the probability that the frost will be con- fined to the Northwest also had an easy- ing effect on the prices. The movement of corn continues heavy, receipts at all Western points being large, and ship- ments were also liberal. The weather for corn is unfavorable, being too cool, and numerous complaints of poor con- diticn of the plant, and the slew prog- ress being made were received. Trading in lecal corn was light, the demand slow, and the close was %c to %c lower for the day. Cables on corn closed 4d to %“d lower. World's shipments of corn were 4,145,000 bu, against 2,972,000 .bu last week, and 2,828,000 bu a year ago. Corn on ocean passage is reported at 11,667,000 bu, against 12,204,000 bu last week and 16,88,00 bu a year ago. _——@-—___ e/ THEFT DOESN'T DELAY WEDDING After their savings of $147, with which they were going to buy furniture to furnish their new home was stolen, William Schaefer and Miss Lilly Hauh of 1208 Ann avenue will be married Sept. 18, as they had planned.

na n FE FOR LID WINS IN Flan! Rev. Father Collins Forces St. Marys’ Saloons to Close Sunday. BULLET HITS HIS EAR

Undaunted by Threats of Tar and Feathers, Stops Dance Music.

PRAISED BY* GOVERNOR

Enemies of Pastor Spread Re- port Folk Would Not Be at Picnic.

At the risk of his life, Rev. Father 1 D. Collins has compelled the five saloons and five dance halls of St. Marys, Mo., 74 miles south of St. Léuis, to close their doors at midnight urday and keep them closed until ht Sunday. courageous priest has been shot @t from ambush, has been threatened with tar and feathers, and has been boy- | cotted by members of his congregation | until his salary is today $700 in ar- rears. When Gov. Folk came, at his invita- tion, to speak at his church picnic last y, enemies of the priest kept my away by spreading the report that Governor would not come. there were 5000 at the picnic, and was liberal applause for the Gov- nm when he praised Father Collins ov his ~ ge won victory for law en- “He did not do this by moral suasion ajone, Father Colli::s comes of a fight- ing race. Challe ‘Sal Once when Siiaek into a eieon to talk with the seam about closing his Place on Sunday, the saloon keeper said: “If you were not a priest I'd beat your 1 ae off. * he rolled up his slteves, squared himself for @ fight and challenged the man be- liind the bar: “Just forget for a minute that I’m a priest,’’ he cried, “and come out here. A. good thrashing will do you good.” The saloon keeper did not go. St. Marys is a town of 600 inhabitants } ‘on the bank of the Mississippi, nine south of Ste. Genevieve. “Its people and those of the adjacent farms are mostly old-fashioned Ger- mans and French. “To these people Sunday was a day of recreation and enjoyment. The five sa- leons did their greatest business upon muaday. ‘Above each saloon was a dance hall, where young men and women spent the @ay dancing and where those who wished to could drink. The people were Cathelics, but of a t independent kind. They had no ance with a priest who attempted 20 Sppose their Sunday diversions, and uo priest stayed there very long. * Into this town of St. Marys Father Collins went to teach that the Sabbath ‘was a holy day. He is a man of about 35 years, six feet tall, thin as a fence rail, his coarse black hair standing straight up from his forehead like the stiff bristles on @ scrubbing brush. He was once presi- dent of the Order of Railway Telegra- ool of America, and conducted their | of the great strike of 1894. | When Father Collins celebrated his we mass in St. Marys in the brick h on ‘the alll, there were only it fifty persons in the congregation, and the sounds of the fiddies from the eS @ance halls told where the others were. His Offer to Saloons. _ He went into each of the five saloons x | ane made this proposition te their own- Epir, I am the priest of this parish. I come to ask you to keep your saloon @lesed each Sunday until after the iast ‘eer If you will do that I will not rata” jer you. ' “Bach of the five saloon keepers made him exactly the same answer. . : It was. ‘The next Sunday the saloons and @ance halls were o@on again, and there “Ble held his cane aloft and declared ® more persons drunk on the streets were at mass. The dance sepa Mine priest marched down again, wear- his sacred vestments, but this timo and he went first pers t if the dance halls were open the Sunday he would drive out ce i a oo e ‘the young men of his congregation with Tals cane. : ieee again and warned them: He went to each of the sa- _ “This time I have come to you. The time I have business with you, you win come to me.” “The fighting priest then filled out his complaints against the five saloon rs and served them himsel:. _ On the day the cases were to be tried, Cellins was sick in bed, slowly ce () a Son of Senator Prendergast At- tacks Bean Shooter With Fists in Grocery Store.

Nellie Prendergast, the 8-year-old daughter of State Senator Jeff Prender- gast, ran up the steps of her home at 5714 Chamberlain avenue with much trouble in her eyes and her little mouth quivering. Her father was standing in the hall- way. But she went by him without 4 word and ran to the room of her broth- er, Jeffry, who is two years her senior. Jeffry was reading a book. “Jeffry,’’ she called. “Yes, sis,” said the boy without look- ing up from his book. “Jeffry, I’ve just been insulted.” Ready for the Fray. The book dropped to the floor. The little chap was on his feet in a minute, his eyes flashing and his fists clenched. “Who was it, sis,"’ he demanded. “‘Are you hurt?’ “No, he just struck me on the arm with a bean shooter. It didn’t hurt my arm much, but it made me so angry. He came running up behind me while I was going into the grocery. I don’t know his name, but you've seen him, around.
