American Federation of Labor Likely to Suffer Dam- age Actions. WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.—By far the Most serious blow.that has yet been de- livered by the SupFeme Court of the Wnited States to organized labor was given today when that tribunal an- nounced its decision that labor organiza— tions are Hable to damages for boycotts egainst manufacturers engaged in inter- atate commerce. The decision was rendered in the case ef Loewe & -0., hat manufacturers of Danbury, Conn., vs. Martin Lawlor and _ $8 other members of the United Hat- ters’ Union of-that city. The decision of the Court was an- neunced by Chief Justice Fuller and reversed the holding of the United States Circuit Court of Appeals for the gecend circuit. ‘Neo Dissenting Voice. '@ The opinion of the court was unani- mous and no dissenting view was pre- sented. Chief Justice Fuller said: “In our opinion the combination de- ecribed in ae declaration is a combi- estraint of trade or com- rmueerce in the several states, in the sense in which. these words are used in the act. action ~ean be maintained accordingly, and that conclusion rests on many judgments of this court, to the effect that the act prohibits any com- bination whatever to secure action which essentially obstructs the free flow of commerce between the states, or re- stricts in that regard the lberty of busi- ness, - “The combination charged falls within the class ef restraints of trade aimed to compel third parties and strangers in- voluntarily not to engage in the course of trade except on conditions that the combination imposes. Overrulés All Objections. ‘In this case the restraint alleged would operate to entirely destroy the defend- _ ant’s business and thereby include intra- State trade as well; that physical ob. struction is not alleged as contemplated: and the defendants are not themselves engaged in intrastate trade. “We think none of the objections are tenable and that they are disposed of vious decisions of this court.”’ The suit was instituted by Loew & Co. in the United States Circuit Court ‘tn Connecticut. The company, alleging damages by a boycott against their fac- fi _ tory to the extent of $80,000, asked for - @ judgment for $240,000 in accordance with the terms of the Sherman act.

Discovery is Made at Port. of Spain—Is Second Time Explosive Has Been Put With Fuel

WASHINGTON, Feb. 3-—The com- manding officer of the battleship Ohio reports that, while taking coal from the chartered coaler Fortuna, at Port of Spain, Trinidad, a stick of dynamite about five inches in length was found. The Fortuna had a cargo of new river coal supplied by the Berwynd-White Coal Co. at Newport News, Va. This is the second time that dynamite has been found in coal furnished a United States man-of-war.

The previous case occurred more than a year ago, and it resulted in an order being issued by Admiral Evans enjoin- ing all officers and men engaged in coaling ships to examine coal carefully. The order described the general ap- pearance of dynamite and gave certain mecessary precautions to be observed. This dynamite was evidently a stick used in mining the coal and escaped the observation of thé miners and persons who subsequently handled the coal.

SYRACUSE, N. Y., Feb. 3.—William H. Gray Jr., a stenographer, 18 years old,-summoned the police to his home early today, saping he had killed his mother. The officerg found the mother, Clara Gray, dead from strangulation. The youth’s story is that he had been sitting reading when his mother called him downstairs; that when he reached the lower floor she made a lunge at hi mwith a razor, inflicting a deep wound on hig right arm, and that in at- tempting to restrain her he choked her. Young Gray sai dthat when he found his mother was dead he was so fright- ened that he did not give the alarm for an hour or more, when he called up his brother and the police. To his broth- er he telephoned: “Mother is done for; I her.” Members of the family and neighbors say that Mrs. Gray was a very high- strung woman, prone to hysteria, verg- ing on insonity.

FOLK’S PASTOR OFFERS TO TAKE STUMP FOR GOVERNOR IN THE SENATORIAL RACE The Rev. Dr. Palmer Says Govern- or’s Enemies Admit Admin- istration Is Clean. Special to the Post-Dispatch. JEFFERSON CITY, Feb, 3.—The Rev. Dr. Palmer, pastor of the First Baptist Church, of which Gov. Folk is.a mem- ber, proclaimed in his Sunday evening sermon that he believed Gov. Folk would be elected United States Senator, and that, if he believed the Governor needed his active support, he would take the stump in behalf of the Governor’s can- didacy. Dr. Palmer was preaching on the “Reign of Evil,’’ and brought up a dis- cussion of the editorial in the Boonville Advertiser, which was partially quoted in Sunday’s Post-Dispatch. : “In this manifestly unfair article,”’ said Dr. Palmer, ‘“‘the Governor’s eéene- mies admit that he has given the State a clean administration and that no fault can be found with his administration of affairs. This is a wonderful admission to come from a man’s, enefnies. ‘They charge he had been untrue to his friends, the people who stood by him. That {ts practically the only charge. In making this charge they convict. themselves to being open to a form of graft. They are friends of the Governor for the sole purpose of getting their hands into the public crib.” Jefferson City is not a Folk strong- hola and: many of Dr. Palmer's congre- gation do not approve his remarks.

He also lists 150 shares in the Von der Ahe Liquor Co., but says they are worthless. Von Der Ahe lost his fortune through investments, such as his night racetrack at Sportsman’s Park and his “‘shoot the chutes” attraction, a lavish habit of indorsing the checks and signing the bonds of all comers, and through loans to finance his ball team when its de- cline began. His largest creditor is Ed- ward €C. Becker, who loaned him $15,50¢ for the team in i898. A similar debt for $1391.85, contracted in 1898,.is owed to Badmund H. Pendleton. In 184 Von der Ahe mortgaged his saloon at Grand and.St. Louis avenues for $44,000 to the Northwestern Bank to get money for the Browns. In Jan- this year, the mortgage was fore- closed, after he had almost paid the principal in interest. Among his lia- bilities is a debt of $50 for rent, present- ed by the bank for the time he occupied the saloon after the foreclosure. ‘To Become a Grocer. His debts consist largely of liquor and cigar bills and of judgments on notes. Von der Ahe, according to William A. Kinnerk, his attorney, plans to start in the grocery business as soon as the bankruptcy proceedings are finished. It was in this business that he made his first money. He is now ill at his home, 3613 St. Louis avenue. For a time he was threatened with death from pneumonia, but he buoyed himself up with the hope that when he recovered he might again embark in the baseball business. During his illness he laid plans to go to Chicago and agaiu become manager of a. team. From his sick bed he tried in vain to work financial wires which would bring him funds for ‘his second start in life.

WHO WEIGH 7000, EAT GROUNDHOG; BREAK DOWN: FLOOR OF BANQUET ROOM Illinois Justice and Wife, Balancing 590\Pounds, Entertain Heavy- weight Kin on Birthday. The one and one-fourth ton family of John Kramer, and more than two tons of their heavyweight and friends, feasted on groundhog—not ordi- nary hog, ground into sausage, but real groundhog—at the Kramer home in Fi- delity, I1l., 20 miles northwest of Alton, on groundhog day. The only incident which marred the pleasure of the 35 guests was the break- ing of a joist under the dining room ficor while the party was eating din- ner. As the basement does not extend beneath the dining room, the floor sank only two feet, and no one was hurt. Kramer, who is a Justice of the Peace at Fidelity, weighs 265 pounds, while his wife tilts the bar at 225. Their birthdays, his seventy-fifth and her sixty-ninth, both fall on groundhog day, and a family reunion was held Sunday. . Three sons and five daughters, whose aterage Weight is 20 pounds each, were ali present. H. A. Kramer, a Chicago traveling man, whose territory is in Southwest Missouri, brought from that section, 35 groundhogs, or Ozark: Moun- tain woodchucks, and these formed the] chief article of food at the birthday feast. The other sons are John Kramer Jr. and Ferd Kramer of Chicago, and the daughters are Mrs. Henry Hoppe of Chicago, Mrs. Mary Grimm of Granite} City, Mrs. Louis Miller of Brighton and: Mrs. Jacob Rodell and Mrs. Mary Fer- guson of Fidelity.

The tragedy led to the downfall of one of the picturesque figures of Buropean politics—Premier Franco, the “Tron Dic- tator,” whose policies inflamed the popu- lation of Portugal and led indirectly to the assassination. Franco was deposed today and was replaced by Admiral Fer- reira Do Amaral, who heads the new cabinet.

The army and navy have sworn allegiance to Manuel the new King. and it Is believed the sit- vation is under control. New King Proclaimed. Prince Manuel, Duke of Beja, proclaimed King by the Council of State early Sunday morning. The King, who is in his nineteenth year, assumes the title of Manuel II. Having announced to the people King Manuel's accession to the throne, Pre- mier Franco led the highest dignitaries of State and the chiefs of the army and navy to the royal palace, where they swore allegiance to the new sovereign. King Not Sertously Hurt. The King’s surgeons say his condition is satisfactory. His wound in the right arm, received when his father and brother were killed, is not as severe as feared. Indeed, it did not prevent him from whipping out a revolver and firing at the assassins. He carries his right arm in a sling, but says he has no pain. If no com- plications follow, he will soon be well. The bodies.of King Carlos and Prince Luiz were embalmed and will lie in state, according tq the custom of the court. The funeral will be held on Mon- day, Feb. 1. Ie ia regarded here as a mercy that Prince Manuel survived, otherwise the crown would have gone to the murdered King’s brother, the Duke of Operte, a man of the groasest appe- tites, prematurely aged and stricken with lecometor ataxia, owing te hia depraved life.

That the financial flurry did not pre- vent St. Louisans from paying their taxes is shown by the report of Col- lector Hagerman, made Monday. For January the collections of real and’ per- sonal taxes amounted to $320,182.15, com- pared with $268,786.02 the same month last year, an increase of $101,346.13. Since Sept. 1 the collections have been $9,818,-

of the tariff from this year’s presiden- tial campaign is the purpose of repre- sentatives of manufacturing and bust- ness organizations assembling at Wash- ington today under the leadership of James W. Van cleave of St. Louis, president of the National Association of Manufacturers. 2,000,000 Members Represented. The associations represented at the meeting have a combined membership the Merchants’ Exchange and the Manufacturers’ Association of St. Louis are among the number. As a means for the elimination of the tariff as a campaign issue the manu- facturergs want the present Congress to provide for a Tariff Revision Commis- sion to be appointed by the President for a term of seven years. This com- mission shall at once take up the ques- tion of tariff revision on a scientific basis and report to Congress as soon as possible. Will Call on Leaders.

Fear Bryan as Reformer. , The manufacturers row in the city admit that they intend to make themselves felt in the presidential campaign this year. Their opening move, they say, is to remove the tariff as an issue chiefiy because they are afraid of the effect upon business if Mr. Bryan, as a candidate, tries toe make tariff the issue. “We want the tariff taken clear out of politics forever,” said Mr. Van Cleave to a Post-Dispatch correspond- end this morning. “We feel that it is very essential that this work be started at once. Then it can’t be harped on during the campaign. If it is not eliminated now we will see that tariff in the role that free silver took in 1896. That will mean trouble for business and therefore the whole country.” Mrs, Mary T. Dickson Dies.

Appo of Lexow Committee fame, in the cot next to his own, and so close that he could have touched the old Chinese by reaching out his hand. Quimbo Appo killed his Irish wife years ago.

Like the other inmates whose Minds are not totally gone, he had heard much of the ‘slayer of Stanford White, and when he found him in the adjoining cot he promptly appointed him Lieutenant- General of the army of a million men h he has in camp at Haverstraw, and Vice-Admiral of the fleet of gun- bests which is awaiting his. orders on the Hudson ‘to open fire on the Mattea wan Asylum. * ithad The only discipline to which Thaw, was treated yesterday was in respect to the hours for his meals and depriva- tion from cigars and cigarettes and all intoxicants.

SM «CARTER, COM MODOR PAWNS JEWELS THEN ACCUSES HER BhOTh A - Bride Confesses After She Has ‘ Relative Arrested—Husband Forgives Her.

Mrs. Mamie Haenfling Buss, 17 years old, a bride of eight months, took her own jewelry and her husband’s and pawned it when she wanted pin money. When suspected of the deal she accused William Haenfling of 5224 North Broad- way, her brother, and he was held by the police until the girl confessed. The bride and Mrs. J. H. Buss df 4514A North Nineteenth street, her mother-in-law, went downtown together Monday to recover the diamond pin, ring and brooch, two watches and gold rings, which the girl had _ seattered through pawnshops. She destroyed the pawn tickets for fear she would be de. tected, and the two experienced diffi- culty in recovering the jewels. The jewels disappeared a month ago. Detectives were detailed to the case, and made a systematic search in pawn- shops for the watches and rings. Mrs. Buss held her own watch, inscribed “Arthur to Mamie,” until the last, and, as it was the most easily identified, the detectives found it last week, as soon as it was given to a Market street pawn- broker for $7. The pawnbroker described Mrs. Buss when asked who had taken him the watch. When Buss accused his wife she ‘the pawnshop, but said- her brother had taken the watch and hAd forced her to pawn it. It was not until her brother had been 24 hours in a cell that she broke down under her husband's questioning. What Mrs. Buss did with the money she obtained her husband has been unable to learn. Husband Forgives Her. “I just needed money,” Mrs. Buss told a Post-Dispatch reporter Monday, but she refused to discuss the case further. Her husband has forgiven her. Buss is a soapmaker. He says he has given his wife $10 a month for four mionthe to pay on their furniture, and that since she took their jewels he has learned that she has not made these payments. The couple's home is at 4508 North Nineteenth street. They were liv- ing at 5214 Blair avenue when the wife pawned the jewels. MOTHER WHO DESERTED BABY GIRL“ON.

BILL STONE’S GOLD MINE. Col. Mulberry Sellers would have torn his re- maining back hair out in wisps in impatience of such slow finance as that of the Nome Gold Dredging and* Power Co., but wise and far- seeing bankers who are content to wait for reasonable returns will have to hold onto their chairs to keep from rushing to invest in fits securities, while trustees of estates will besiege its doors as soon as they ascertain where the doors are located. In these days of meticulous caution and squeamish timidity when investors are too prone to shy at securities that promise much we are gratified to note that it is not claimed for the stock of the Nome company that it will: pay over 200 per cent a year. In the words of the prospectus, “were you ever before offered an opportunity to buy 1000 shares of stock for $500 that was so certain to pay you $1000 a year for over 40 years?” Mere frenzied financiers like Aladdin and Monte Cristo will modestly retire to back seats while we proceed with the conservative docu-. ment.- Another paragraph reads: ‘Assuming for the sake of conservatism that the entire tract averages only $2 per cubic yard instead of $3.50 as per sworn statement of our mining superintendent, we find $161,075,200 in gold scattered throughout the entire tract.” Of which, proceeding by “extreme conservatism,’ we as- certain there will be an “actual net profit of $149,541,440.” This certainly looks. good. It is not a get- rich-quick; it is a get-rich-conservative scheme. And what makes it still better is that it is cloaked in the traditional, century-old conserv- atism of the most conservative body on earth. It wears a toga. In its directory we find the ultraconservative William Joel Stone, of the United States Senate. What more need be said? The company thus who is not only an authority upon values above expert in precious minerals and underground operations. As founder and promoter of a great mining corporation, thé Missouri Health Society, it was the Hon. William Joel Stone who man- aged to dig up the vast quantities of double called alum, that made Missouri famous a few vears back. ' If Bonanza Bill can find as much gold in Nome as he found alum in Cole County his company ought to .be able to aaa dividends of 200 cent a month instead of a conservative and 200 per cent a year. . > L > — THAW.

Under the Jaw and the rulings of the court Thaw’s victim as well as Thaw’s wife were not on trial, but inevitably the ‘ury must have taken as the public has done. While the verdict says nothing as to them, there is no uncertainty in the public mind as to their joint responsibility for the homicide which Thaw perpetrated. Thaw .not guilty of murder but Thaw con- signed to an asylum for the criminally insane ic a judgment which will not appeal to the sen- timentalists or to the savages who uphold the It is probablé that if the statutes of New York had not wisely provided for the incarceration of creatures like Thaw this jury would have sent him to death or to the peni- In spite of all the false sentiment that has been appealed to in this case, it has produced cept the faithfulness of the prisoner's mother. The mock heroics of Thaw himself have been as disgustiig as the well-staged theatricals of Thaw’s wife—an experienced young woman of the world. who appears to -have lived with him and travelled with him long before she was his wife. The thousands of morbid creatures who have undertaken to give this licentious union all the sanctity of decent marriage and to idealize a Tenderloin murder arising from jealousy com- mon even among beasts are invited to get such comfort as they may from contemplating Thaw ~~ = = rw

The Cherokee, cars jolt and make such a noise that our house,-which is well built, shakes so badly that the walls crack, the chandeliers and the ornaments on our montels shake.

The letter of the Persian in your paper last evening relative to’name of new school] has ip it a touch of sarcasm sandwiched with ignorant prejudice when he refers to the Irish. The island of O'Connell and Em- met (not Emmett) has not supplied all our police- men as stated by this Persian, who perhaps intend- ed to say all our best policemen. The Irish element in St. Louis shows commendable discretion in hold- ing aloof from this school christening controversy, though the history of the United States is embla- zoned with the names of men of which the people of the Emerald Isle may feel justly proud. There are plen- ty noted American literati from whom a very ap- propriate name may be selected for a new school in St. Louis, In the opinion of J.D. NEVILLE.

An Appeal From a Painter. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I most heartily agree with Mr. Anderson, whose letter you published in this evening’s paper. There is, as Mr. Anderson said, plenty:of men who are now looking for work wily would gladly work for half their former pay. Myself, for ipstance. I am a union painter out of work. Our wages are 50 cents an hour. I would work for 3 cents an hour ‘now and be glad to get it. I am a young married man and I need the work badly. I am a pretty good me- chanic, can do signs or pictures, and when] ask for a job the. bosses just laugh and say, “Nothing do- ing.” Who can blame a man for holding up some- one else for his money? It’s enough to drive one crazy and it’s not only in the painting business, but everything you try. I Know, because I've tried any- thing and everything to make an houest dollar. C.°"BUMM. ey Keeping Track of Expenditures. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. While the house-to-house method of investigation concerning the prices we pay and the amounts we expend seems inquisitive, yet if names are withheld a vast amount of valuable information may be ob- tained which a good many people could profitably use. The truth of the matter is that seven out of every ten people who are asked to state what their living costs do not know, except that they spend al) they earn. The secret of getting ahead in the world is good management, and good management consists— largely of family bookkeeping. A man never knows how much he spends for cigars, nor a woman for candy and ice cream sodas, until the figures are seen in black and white, and when the cigars and sodas are gone, and the end of the month finds him eager for payday, he may begin to wonder if he would not rather have the money in his pocket after all. Nor does it hold true only with the luxuries. L. M. GREENLAW. Good Women Make Men Good. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I do not agree with “Spinster,” was says that a girl has to be bad to attract good men. Both good and bad men want to marry good girls and no oth- er kind. I would not call a man good who is ‘“‘simply crazy about a girl whom other men, not good like him. would not be seen in public with:” It is an un- questioned penalty which a woman imposes upon her- self if she is not good that no man will want to marry -her. The old, old principles of right have not changed an iota. Above all things, girls must. be good, it is woman's obligation to point the right way for men. Men will be good or bad according to the requirement of the women with whom they come ina centact. Frequently the fact is deplored that wom- en must bear the responsibility of the moral life. but isn't it, after all, the highest compliment the world could pay the sex? Steadfastly believe that good girls are actually the ones who attract “good” as well as “bad’’ men, for it is true. Even if it were not. what recompense is there for a girl who makes herself tough and flip to attract men? Didn't you hear Rose Stahl, “The Chorus Lady,” wise in world- ly experience, in answer to a rich man’s tempting offers to ‘‘pay,”’ say “Men never pay, it is always the woman who pays and pays and pays’’? And it’s true, true, true. ONE WHO KNOWS. A Danger to Children. To the Baditor of the Post-Dispatch. I had a trial of factory work. On account of bad health I could not do real hard work, but was com- pelled to earn my living and was told by a friend that- factory work was something I could stand to do. so I applied and got work in a fruit and nut fac- tory in St. Louis and I want to say it was enough to make a woman ashamed of her sex. There were children between 12 and 16 years of age employed there and when they came there I believe they were pure and innocent, but, God help them, they sdon got on the wrong road through the influence of older girls. When I went to work there were two other women in the factory besides myself that were Chris- tlans and we tried to talk to them, but it did no good and the language they used, both men and girls, would shock the worst person on earth. Ther Would change their clothes before the men. But one day two of us could stand it no longer, s0 we com: plained to the manager and he asked us not to quit, and tame in the factory and told them they had to stop bad language, and they did—but how Jong? Why. just long enough for him to get out of the room, but I had to quit; I could not stand it. Oh. if I only had the power, | would punish every fac- tory manager that allowed anything unbecoming @ lady done or spoken by a’ ‘girl or man employed by him. Mw Cg.

Comiskey Victory Sees Again for White Sox

Louis and Talks Baseball--Joe Can- tillon Also Has Hopes of Senators

BY JAMES CRUSINBERRY ball and owner of the Chicago White Sox, spent Sunday e HARLES A. COMISKEY, the grand ‘‘Old Roman’”’ of base- in St. Louis on his way south to snatch a week’s recrea- ’ tion on his houseboat, now in the White River in Lower Arkansas. Comiskey has been having a busy winter and has much to do yet before the season opens, but he always has time to stop off at St. Louis and visit the frends he made here when he was captain of the famous Browns. With the Chicago magnate were Joe Cantillon, manager of the Washington club; ** Admiral’’ John P. Agnew, one of ‘‘Commy’s™ closest Chicago friends, and Joe Ray, a politician of Will County, Illinois. Charles C. Spink of this city joined the party and all left Sunday night for the week’s shooting in Southern waters. Comiskey is delighted with his pros- eects for winning another American tte pennant. He believes his club af.the coming season is bound to be up with the leaders all the way and he is sparing no time or expenses to fit it up in perfect shape for the battles of the summer. . LANNING his great training trip Pp to California and through the South has kept the White Sox owner busy ail winter, and it was only at the urgent request of his friends that he grabbed these rew days to seek pleas- ure. The proposed trip is the greatest ever undertaken by any ball club ‘and is to be handied with especial care, a Special train having been secured *o carry the party, probably 50 in number, to the coast. When asked if he didn’t think he wus taking too much risk in such a long trip and playing se many exhibition games, Comiskey said: “I think the trip will do the players a lot of good, and things have been #0 arranged that the hardships will he leseened as niuch as possible. Of course, a large number of games have ben echeduled, out most of them are for the second team. The regulars will ba ‘well taken care of and will have no one- day stands. on Pinan “The coast part of the trip should be easy and beneficial to all the plavers, and they should be in condition for some lively practice when they reach New Orleans. Of course, players ure always liiaiye. to .injury in exhibition games, but the same thing would be » ff 1 simply divided the squad and trad them practice against each - other.” “Commy" figures that Detroit and New York will, he his closest £o0ne ti- tors in the next sea8on race of the American. League. He realizes that both of these clubs are likely to be weak in pitching, but just the same he counts them as his hardest foes, with the possibility of Cleveland and St. Louis cutting tn’ with tite’ top teams. Jones to manage the club anoth- er season. Jones, however, has never yet told Comiskey that he intend- ed to quit baseball for good, and it is a pretty safe. bet .that.the -Sox -leader Will be signed before another fortnight has passed. A roundabout rumor has been circulated that Jones would re- turn and “Commy” has been counting on its heing sure. Fle will make no efforts to secure another man, and Says the day before the trip begins will be soon enough to sign up Jones. Frank Isbell is not expected to re- turn, although Comiskey cannot see how the veteran’ second’ baseman can af- ford to drop his contract with the Sox. However, Isbell, has declared that he will stick to his’ club in Wichita, Kan., and if he persists. he will be granted his release so that he can play with the Western Association's champions. L S vet he has not signed Fielder Comiskey has told Isbell that he can’ secure a $200 per month. man to run the Wichita club, and don't see how he can afford to drop a fat contract with George Davis, the old shortstop, will be moved over to second base if Is- bell does not return. Then Freddie Parent will go in at short and Lee Tan- nehill will be at his old place at third base. These men; with ‘“Jigs’’ Dono- hue at first, makes the White Sox in-- field look like a stone wall. Parent has not yet signed, but has written Co- miskey that he will be on hand. Tan- nehill is counted upon for a great year, after being out most of last season with an injured ankle. T was announced by’Comiskey Sun- day that Frank Owen, the Sox pitcher, who was a failure last sea- son because of sickness as well as bad habits, had been tendered a contract just like the one given Nick Altrock. Owen also suffered a big cut in his salary, with a provisionary viause that the old amount would be paid if his behavior warranted it. Owen accepted the contract witnout a protest and said it was reasonable. Altrock has not yet signed. , Sheldon LaJeune, the young outfield- er with the strong arm, who won the long distance throwing contest at Cin- cinnati last summer, is to be turned into a catcher by Comiskey. The ath- letic youngster was secured from the Springfield (O.) club, where he -played in the outfield ‘dst summer. He was tried out by the White Sox last spring, but was thought to be hardly ready for fast company then. The young fellow can throw a ball to second base with more speed than any catcher in the. business today, but it re- mains to be seen if he can control the throw well enough to make it profit- able. He told Comiskey when he signed that he tried catching in the Central League, but could not find a second baseman who coul@ hang on to the ball, as it went with such speed. z en * ANTILLON talked with confidence regarding the Washington club for next season. Joe does not expect to’ win the pennant, but he is hopeful of climbing out of last place and even thinks it possible to get into the first division. “Of course, [I have a lot of young fellows to break in,”’ said Cantillon, “but they are a likely looking bunch. and with this young Johnson pitching anxtbing like he. did last summer we are bound to win more games than the public is expecting. ‘ “I have a styong batting club, too, anu I think all we need is to get to playing well together. We'll beat out New York.”’ HILE here Comiskey stated he would present to the Mississip- pi Valley Kennel Club, through its secretary, George Munson, a hand- some loving cup, to be given to the best St. Louis dog of any kind in the coming bench show, April 1, 2, 3 and 4. Comiskey is something of a dog fancier himself and takes great pride fn a pair of Airedale puppies presented to him by James H. McTague of this city, one of his old-time school friends. It {is 4ikely Comiskey will be here. to attend the dog show at that time. .

NEW YORK, Feb. 38.- En Sue—ofChi- n- of broken-the-record-foet-the-50-yard- dash, even in athletics the supremacy of the white man is threatened. Yes- terday news of the achievement was sent to this country. Sue made his record during a Chinese field meet. His time, 51-5 seconds, is 1-5th of a second faster than the time of L. C. Atherton, made at Danville, Ky., on April 18, 1896. The ‘erediblility of the new record is not established yet, whether it is accepted ar not, the Chinaman must be credited with being a remarkably fast man. Atherton’s ‘record has withstood the attacks during 12 years of such men as Duffy, Weefers, Eaton and Archie Hahn. The best that any of these great sprinters.could do was to equal the record.

Specinl to the Post-Dispatch. NEW ORLEANS, Feb. 3.—Eastern turf men have won the lion’s share of the money and honors of the racing season here this winter. Burlew & O’Neill, the Gravesend horsemen, head the winning list of owners, with $14,849 to their credit. ‘Jolly Joe’’ Notter, the little freckled-faced boy, who will ride James R.

Since Thanksgiving day the Fair Grounds track and the City Park course have dis- tributed in purses and stakes nearly $200,000; 76 owners have won $500 or more and rounded up the fine total of $162,520. W. H. Fizer & Co., the Western own- ers, are second on the winnirg list, with $11,870. Just before the holidays they were the leaders, but during the pest six Weeks they seldom won a purse.

—r =) ey ARE WE?” IS THE | QUESTION AT WASHINGTOK WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.—The question agitating the public mind In Washing- ton is “Who are we?" No, it is not a cel'ege yell. It is the demand for in- formation concerning the President's meaning when he abandoned his old friend “I” and studded his message with reference to “We,” “Us” and “Our policies.’’ The idea that the President meant himself by “We” and was merely adopting the royal tashion is scouted. It is generally accepted that Mr. Roose- velt was talking in the plural. Here ts a Nest of ‘‘We” obtained with vast diffi- culty from high sources. President Roosevelt, who holds the highest position in the club, that, of “I: Secretary Taft, ‘““Me Too;”’ Herbert Knex Smith, first assistant ““Me;’’ Mil- ton D. Purdy, dhief trust buster and sec- ond assistant ‘“‘Me;’” Charles J. Bona-

parte, assistant to Mr. Purdy; James | R. Garfield, “Almost I;” Kenesaw Moun- tain Landis, Frank B. Kellogg, George Von L. Meyer, Jonathan Bourne, Her- bert Parsons and Francis J. Henry, "Tn" George B. Cortelyou, it is learned, was formerly a compenent part of “We” and sometimes even had a leok-in at “Cur Policies.” He is now a member of the class whom “We” refer to as “Them.” There is the highest author- ity for the statenfént that Edward H. Harrimian, J. Pierpont Morgan, William D. Haywood, Chancellor Day, John D. Rockefeller, Joseph B. Foraker and Bel- lamy Storer do not belong to “We.”’

PROP’TY OUT OF CITY FOR GALE

fe ee ea .. Bag" improved '160-acre farm ‘in * WO aL ANNA HELD LOS! $47,000 IN PANIC She’s Just as Blithe as a Crick-| 2 et in “The Parisian Model.”’

Held bas the not inconsiderable item of $47,000 tied up with the Knicker- booker Trust Co. in New York. then is the further truth of the ineradicable gayety of the Gallic temperament finely emphasized by. her work in “The Pa- risian Model,” because she was distinct- ly cheerful at the Olympic last night. So light-hearted was she, indeed, that her buoyancy of spirit went across the footlights to a big audience and resulted in a very joyous evening for all con- cerned. It is not to be denied that Mr. Otis Harlan helped quite materially to bring this about, being a musical come- dian, of such jocund soul as to be irre- sistible in his best moments, and it: is also patent that a clever company and a vright production additionally assisted Miss Held in amusing her St. Louis first-night audience, but, for all that, was the foremost figure of fun in her own right. The old Spartan or Ro- man, whichever it was, who maintained hia equanimity with a hungry fox un- der his robe gnawing at his vitals couldn’t have been a Dit braver—al- ways assuming, of course, that Miss Held is truly “shy’’ the number of dol- lars mentioned. A Very Vivacious Anna, Indeed. For, in the production which Mr. Fiorence Ziegfeld, her husband-manag- er, has given her, this little FPrench- woman throws care to the winds and entertains us vastly. She sings “A Gown for Each How of the Day” as blithely as if those $47,000 had been profitably invested in such pleasing pos- sessions, she joins with Mr. Harlan in singing ‘‘A Lesson in Kissing’’ precisely as though she had not. kissed good-by to her money a8 one phase of such a lesson, a little while later she vocalizes to us that ‘‘she just can’t make her eyes behave,” and there’s never the sign of a regretful tear in them, and, finally, when she aske us, lvrically, ‘“‘Won'’t You Be MY Teddy Bear?” it’s plain to be seen that she doesn't cherish the least resentment against the original Teddy, believed to be responsible for the finan- cial stringency of which she is a reputed victim And that this is “goed losing’ on the part of Miss Held no one can gaingay. Last night’s house liked her immensely for it and made her feel that she was distinctly the star of the evening. Hav- ing done this, thereby keying her up te her brightest, it then devoted much attention to Mr. Harlan, causing him to run a close second to the favorite, especialty in hig Harry Lauder imita- tion and in “The Gfbson Girl” and the Roosevelt song eulogy, “In Washing- ton,” and after that it placed its stamp ef approval upon “The Parisian Mode!’ as a whole. Next to Miss Held and Mr. Marlan, the dclever Mr. Henri Leoni came in for the friendlfest considera- tien, his singing of “La Vie” in Eng- lish being one of the night’s biggest suc- cesses. ‘ Snowstorm, but No “Frost.” “The Parisian Model” is the most elab- arately produced musical comedy that has come te us this seagon. It has been staged apparently without regard to cost, the original New York production has been brought to St. Leuls intact, there are many genuine novelties among its offerings, and the tmpression which it leaves on the mind is that of great beauty of investiture and much bright- ness in comedy and music. It’s al] pure- ly superficial, of course, as is inevita- ble with productions of its kind—you hardly know what the story’s about when it’s ended, but yeu’ve enjoyed a lightsome evening if you don’t demand too much ef nrusical cemedy, and you are entirely willing to concede that the snowstorm with which the last scene be- gins, introducing the skating carnival, deesn’t put the least bit of a frost on “The Parisian Model. This, at least, was the voiced verdict of last night’s house, which went out inte the winter’s cold shortly after 0 p. m. In evident high good humor with what had been provided for its enter- tainment. [ it be really true that Miss Anna

The writer spoke of her fondness for diamonds, pearls and other precious stones, and continued: “Do not expect a bright letter, for I took an entire drug store last night— all but the shelves. I have taken two drug stores tonight and am waiting to be wooed to rest by the god of sleep.” The letter is signed “Your Old Best Girl."’ The Woman seldom left her room on the second floor and no one in the hotel knew anything about her. She had plenty of money, apparently, and in her room were found expensive furs and jewelry. She was about 40 years old, but had a slight, girlish figure and was pretty. There were a dozen empty drug boxes in the room, with the labels scratched off. ALTON GROUNDHOG COMES OUT TO SEE SHADOW; BING!

Sir Arthur Vicars’ half brother, Pierce O’Mahony, saya that at an interview with Viceroy Aberdeen in November beth Aberdeen and Irish Secretary Bir- Tell said that Vicars’ dismissal was rec- ommended by the King, not only be- | cause of his negligence about the jew- els. but also because Vicars had in- troduced into the Castle men of undesir- -able character.
