BILL}. al Council Will Decide Fate of Commission Measure Tuesday Night. OBSTACLE IN RULES Motion to Reconsider May Nox Be Entertained by ~ Forman. AMENDMENTS. DISLIKED Friends of Bill Hope That Councilman O’Brien Will Come to Rescue. The fate of the bitl creating a pub- lic utilities commission will be decided at Tuesday night's meetng of the Coun- cil. To send the bill to the Mayor it is necessary that the Council reverse its action at last Tuesday night's meeting, when it falled to concur in the House amendments to the bill. In other words, to send the bill to the Mayor for his signature, the Coun- cil must Tuesday night reconsider its vole of last Tuesday night, and then vote to concur in the House amend- ments. Each of these steps will require seven favorable votes, that is a majority of the legal membership of the Council. Friends of the bill think the seven favorable votes will be available, but there is a stumbling block which may prevent them being cast. Depends on Forman. That is doubt as to whether the president of the Council, Hamilton A. Forman, will entertain the motion to reconsider. Mr. Forman is favorable to the bill, and the doubt as to his ac- tion is not based on his personal atti- tude, but on the rules of the Council. Rule 64 of the Council provides that “any member of the Council voting with the prevailing side shall have the right to move a reconsidefation on the same day or at the next day of the session, but not thereafter.” The prevailing side at the last meeting was the negative. Six councilmen—Fitz- simmons, Ewing, Hauschulte, Cramer, Moeliman and President Forman—voted to concur in the House amendments, but as seven votes were required, the nega- tive side prevailed, although casting onlye three votes. Councilman Norvell, Crunden and O’Brien cast these three votes. Councilmen Thomson and Lam- bert were absent. Under rule 64, apparently only Nor- vell, Crunden and O’Brien have the right to mové a reconsideration. Norvell and Crunden say positively they will not do so. Crundren says he will do noth- ing for the bilk with the amendments that are now tagged to it, as it would be turning the citygover to the friends 6f the Housé of Delegates. Norvell holds somewhat similar views. O'Brien's Position . Unknown, Friends of the bill have hope that Councilman O’Brien will come to the rescue and move the reconsideration. But O'Brien has not said that he will, Neither has he said that he won't. He has been engaged in business in St. Louis County throughout the past week, and persons who have endeavored to as- ecrtain his positien in the matter. have been unable to even talk to him. ‘Uncertainty as to O'Brien's position has caused friends of the bill to inquire |. whether one of the two absentees at the last meeting—Lambert “or Thomson— may not move the reconsideration. * Lambert was out of the city. he does not know how he will vote un- til he hears the arguments Tuesday night. Thomson, however, has told the Post- Dispatch that he will move to recon- sider, and that if President Forman en- tertains the motion he wil' vote for re- consideration and for concurrence in the House amendments. Chance to Paas Bill, Frtends of the bili believe that if O’Brien makes the necessary motion, or if Forman permits Thomson te do so, the six councilmen who stood together at the last meeting will again stand to- gether and the bill, as amended, will be Mr. Forman told the Post-Dispatch at noon Tuesday he ts undecided as to the right of Thomson to make the mo- tion. “Thomgon should have been at the last meeting and should have voted for the bill." Forman said, “‘He was in the city and it seems very strange to me that he forgot about the meeting. “I am tn’favor of the bill and am willing to stretch a point to see it ‘passed. But I do not want to enter- tain such a motion if it would affect ‘the legality or regularity of the bill. “While I have not made up my mind positively, it looks as though only Norvell, Crunden or O’Brien have the right to move the reconsideration.” ef Rules, In the event that O'Brien does not, and Thomason can not move to recon- _ wider, the only hope of passing the ducing him He says, BASEBALL SCORES "AMERICAN LEAGUE AT BOSTON. §t.

ACTRESS TO BE NAMED Seamstress Says She Was Promised $1000 to Sign False Affidavit. DETECTIVE HAD PAPER Prisoners Say It Is All a Mis- take atid Promise to Ex- plain Matters. NEW YORK, July 21.—A story which, the police believe, will, on investiga- tion, reveal a wide-spread plot against Frank Jay Gould, the millionaire, al- ready has resulted in three arrests. Those taken iyto custody are Mrs. Ben }- Teal, the wife of a well-known stage manager; Harry S. Mosley, a private detective, and Miss Julia Fleming, a seamstress. The examination of the prisoners today was a perfunctory one, the authorities desiring further time. They are cenarged with being con- cerned in a plot to furnish perjured evi- dence against Frank J. Gould in his wife's suit for divorce. Miss Mabel Mc- Ca¥.slin asserts that she was promised $1100 to make an affidavit that she had seen Gould in the apartments of Miss Bessie Devoe, a handsome chorus girl. Miss McCauslin says the statement prepared for her and which she signed is false in every particular. There is no evidence that Mr. Gould has ever seen Miss Devoe and her connection with the affair, so far as is now known, is that of an innocent victim. Hysterical When. The prisoners were arrested last night | in Mrs. Teal’s apartments. Mousley and Miss Fleming were then taken to Police Headquarters, but Mrs. Teal was per- mitted to remain in her rooms under po- lice surveillance, as she became hys- terical when told that she was under ar- rest, This morning Mrs. Teal, accom- panied by her-maid, Martin Catulove, her attorney and by Police Lieutenant Beery, went to the Criminal Courts Building to see Assistant District At- torney Hart. Attorney Catulove and Mr. Teal de- clared Mrs. Teal is the yictim of un- fertunate circumstances. ‘There is nothing to it and we are sure it will come out all right,’’ said Teal. “Neither Afis. Teal nor I know either of the Goulds, so you see friend- ship could not have been a motive, and it certainly was not money. We are both good friends of Bessie Devoe. “Miss MacCauslin came from 8t. Paul, Minn., with a letter of reference to Mrs. Teal from Mrs. Teal’s sister. My wife gave her work as a seamstress, and later, only a week ago, the girl came to me and asked me to place her as a chorus girl.’”’ “It’s all a mistake,”’ said Lawyer Cat- ulove, ‘‘which will be explained before the Magistrate. ‘‘The only business Mr. Teal has had with Mosley was when he called some time ago in reference to the subletting of Mrs. Teal’s apart- ment in the Glenmore to Miss Devoe. at that time Miss McCausland sought employment from Mrs. Teal, and while she was there Miss Devoe's name came up in conversation.” No explanation was given of the gath- ering where the arrest was made or of the fact that Mosley had, when taken into custody, a statement made by Miss McCausland that she had _. peered through a keyhole into Miss Devoe’s, rooms, Girls Tearful Confession. Miss MacCauslin is a pretty girl about 2 years old; Miss Fleming is a seam- stress who lives at the Hotel Lincoln, and Mousley is a private detective, member of the firm of Mousley & Hart, and lives with his family in Brooklyn. Miss MacCauslin first apprised Nicoll, Anable & Lindsay, Mr. Gould’s attor- neys, of the alleged plot last Saturday. In the District Attorney’s office she later tearfully made a full confession of the part she had taken in the scheme and directly indicated Julia Fleming, Mousley and Mrs. ‘Teal in the scheme to furnish evidence in the divorce suit. The substance of Miss MacCauslin’'s statement is that the matter was first broached to her about ten days ago by Miss Fleming, who represented herself as coming from Mrs. Teal. Miss Mac- Causlin says she was promised $1000 if she would make a statement compro- mising Mr. Gould. Was to Tell of Mrs. Teal knew both Miss MacCauslin and Miss Fleming and, #0 it is charged, it was because of the fact that they Wére poor and struggling young girls that the glittering offer of a large sum of money as a first payment was pre- sented to Miss MacCauslin. Mrs. Teal, the girl sets forth, had lived before moving to the Hotel Wyom- ing in the Hote] Glenmore. which is lo- cated opposite the Wyoming.

Lloyd Tuesday opened the inquest into the death from arsenic poisoning of John Ries of 71 " Deputy - Coroner re- South Compton avenue. The widow and a physician who attended Ries were witnesses, Ries was 48 years old. He died June 17 at the Clty Hospital.

Mrs. Cora Ries, the widow, a thin, blonde woman, apparently 36 years old, testified that her husband told her, when he became ill, that he had eaten sauer- kraut and had'then drunk buttermilk. He thought this was the cause of the violent nausea which overcame him. “Did you get any life insurance after your husband’s death?’’ Deputy Coroner Lloyd asked. “Yes.”’ “How much.’”’ “There was a policy for $1000.” Dr. Lioyd also questioned Mrs. Ries as to whether she had access to the poison cabinet in the office of Dr. Oscar L. Howard of 4215 Natural Bridge road, one of the physicians who treated her husband. She said she did not, and Dr. Howard subsequently corroborated this. Mrs. Ries has-four cHildren, the old- est 15. Doesn't Know Cause, He Says. Dr. Howard testified that Mrs. Ries came to him when her husband became ill, manifesting deep distress, and he diagnosed the trouble as ptomaine potl- aoning. Subsequently he concluded it was smallpox, he said. Mrs. Ries testi- fied that he also diagnosed the trouble as measies and typhoid fever. Dr. Howard did not know what caused the death, he testified. He prescribed 1-60-grain arsenic tablets, and gave 2 in all, he said. This was less arsenic than was found in the stomach after death, however. Dr. Henry L. Whitener of 2008 East Grand avenue, also called into the Ries home, will be a witness when the in- quest is resumed at 9 a. m. Wednesday. Dr. Howard also will be recalled. Nicaragua and Honduras!

mony she cofsented to go into the scheme. It was agreed, according to her con- fession, that she should state that she had gone to the Hotel Glenmore, to the apartments formerly occupied by Mrs. ‘Teal, on March 9 last, when Miss De- voe is said to. have lived there, and that she had heard strange, sounds which induced her to become a peeping girl and plage her eye to the keyhole of one of th: doors. It was all arranged just what. Miss MacCauslin should say that she’ saw through the keyhole and if it were all true it would certainly have aided Mrs. Gou!d to win a divorce. “In order to make it clear that there was no mistake in Mr. Gould, gaid Miss MacCauslin, “I.was to say that I had geen him go to the bathroom. This was to show that I had certainly seen him. Forgot About Conscience. “I did not appreciate the wrong I was doing at the time and the money was so tempting that I really forgot what a conscience is. I was promised $600 at first and then this was raised to $itwy, which was earning easy money, as I hefi heen assured there --~ not the slightest chance of my ever being found out. I was told that everything would be secret. “About a week was spent in conduct- ing the negotiations and it was arranged that I should go to the apartment of Mre. Teal on Monday afternoon and awear to my statement. I made this arrangements with Mr. Mousley, who was introduced to me under the name of ‘Stanley.’ I did not know his busi- ness and supposed he was a lawyer. “T began to get alarmeff during the latter part of this week, as I thought over what I was going to do, and 1 ~ gpoke to a friend, who pointed out the @anger I would be in, and the injury I would do to innocent persons by mak- ing a false statement. ‘te “My conscience was aroused, and I sented to go with my friend ’to’ the | office of Mr. Gould's lawyers and tell the whole truth. There is not the slight- est truth in any of the facts I agreed to swear to.” ? Accompanied by Detective. Mise MacCauslin said that in accord- ance with her original plan she was to meet her alleged co-conspirators in Mrs. Teal's apartments at $3 o'clock yesterday afternoon and Assistant District Attor- | ney Smyth insisted that the best plan would be not to interfere with the r- rangement. Miss MacCauslin was instructed by Mr. Smyth to continue the negotiations just as if she intended to carry the business out to the end and he placed her in Charge of Lieut. Raynes, of the District Attorney's staff. Miss MacCauslin went @irectly to the splendidly furnished Spartment of Mrs. Teal on the second - floor, and Lieut. Raynes, who posed es her brother, waited in the office be- low, where he could keep close watch on the elevator. ‘ The signal Raynes was to get was a telephone call from Mrs. Teal’s room. After waiting more than an hour for the call he got a bit uneasy and was on his. way to the room of Mrs. Tea: when Miss MacCausiin met him and said that everything had been completed. “Pid Mousley give you any money?" asked Raynes. “No,”’ replied Miss MacCauslin. “He told. me he would meet me tonight and give me the first $100 after they had de- livered the statement I had made to his clients.” ; ' #£.All Three Under Arrest, Raynes had no difficulty in getting into the apartment and found seated at @ table in the parlor Mrs, Teal, Miss Fieming and Detective Mousley. “In the performance of my duty,” said Raynes, “I beg to announce thet all the persons in this apartment are under ar- rest.” “How dare you enter this place with- out authority?” said Mousley. ‘Get out or I will throw. you out of the window.” “Calm yourstif, young man,” said Raynes. “I am acting under the direc- tion of the District Attorney. The spe- cific complaint against you is that you offered money to this woman here, Ma- del MacCauslin, to.give false testimony in the suit of Helen K. Gould against J, Gould, her husband, for di- te is a lie,”’ shouted Mousley, and he jumped toward Miss MacCauslin. Raynes deftly caused the private de- tective to take a seat forcibly in an : arm chair and told him if he made any see show of resistance he would put hand- ss afte on him. “Get ready, ladies,” said Raynes. “You will have to go with me to Police Head- quarters.’ : One Woman Feaints.

News telegrams from Hot Springs, V43., say Secretary Taft is busy wai in 3 to cut down his speech of acceptance of the presi- dential nomination. In its present shape it covers 50 typewritten pages and contains about 12.500 words. He hopes to condense it to 3500 words. It is understood that a draft of it will be shown President Roose- velt before it is delivered. “COPY!” yelled Editor Roosevelt.

Twelve subjects were variously affect- ed. Several were taken sick; all lost weight, most of them suffered a reduc- tion in blood corpuscles and nausea was a frequent occurrence, particularly dur- ing the period when the 25 grams per day treatment was in force.

Alexander Frederick Guns for Burglar, but Shoots Self in Heel.

Alexander Frederick, houserman at the home of Theodore Rassievr, 3663 Flora boulevard, hae about reached the con- clusion that being a hero has draw- backs. It went fine at put by the time six policemen, a sergeant and a Heutenant got through with him a Carnegie medal had no attractions fot him. The world at large might never have known that Alexander was a hero if it had not been for Alexander. First he broke the news to Dr. North, 2120 South Grand avenue, when he went there to have a bullet wound in his hee! attend- ed to.. The complaisance of the doctor Was aggravating. Alexander then went to the drug store of Willlam J. Meis- berger, Russell and Vandeventer ave- nue, and ordered a soda to steady his nerves. One Got Him in the Heel. As he dallied with the straw he re- marked quite casually that he had just been having a deadly encounter with two burglars up at the house. “F shot one of them in the shoulder;” he said, “and the other gne got me in the heel.’’ He removei his shoe to prove it. “They had cheap guns,” he added, ‘“‘but I had a good one.”’ When Policeman Doyle dropped in a little later Meisturger asked him about it. It was the first he had heard of it. He and Sergt. O’Leary questioned Fred- erick. He told them that as he was re- turning to the house from an errand he heard the burglar alarm ringing. He ran up the front stairs and procured a revolver and was starting down the back stairs when he dropped _ the weapon. It fell unsthe hammer and was discharged. ; He declared that he found three doors open that should have been closed, one leading into the cellar, one leading from the cellar to the first floor and the kitchen door. Bleod On Back Stairs. There ‘Was blood at the top of the back stairs 6n the second floor. A dent in the linoleum showed wheré the revolver had struck. The bullet was found to have behaved very etcentric- ally. Instead of entering the floor aft- er wounding Alexander’s foot, it had turned around and struck the door above Alexander’s head and glanced from there to the célling. The three doors did not show any evidence of having been forced, and they were equipped with locks which would’ be hard to pick. Alexander was taken to the Magnolia Avenuc Station and closely questicned by Lieut. Dunnigan. He adhered substantially to his He was permitted amended version. to return to the house. Patrolman Lewis went around Tuesday! morning to see how he was and found him trim- ming the lawn. He was anxious to have the incident closed, but the police are not satisfied that the last word has been spoken. The Rassieur family are at Charlevoix, Mich., to which point Alexander has forwarded a detailed report of the oc- eurrence. DOVES AREN'T LOVEY-DOVEY, BIRD SCIENTIST ASSERTS Maine Educator Wo Has Studied ' ’Em Says They Have Affinities, CHICAGO, July 21—At one swoop Prof. W. W. Craig of the University of Maine has destroyed the romance which has been woven about doves as examples of all that is gentile, faithful and lovey-dovey. . Instead, says Prof. Craig, in the cur- rent number of the Journal of Sociology, the female dove lacks coyneéss, fs a flirt and even is known to have “affinities.” Prof. Craig has spent several years studying doves and dove language. They are much like primitive people, accord- ing to the professor. They grow up, court or woo their sex opposites; marry, settle down, raise families, have their social settlements and family trees and have their marital troubles.

Following two successful attempts at burglary in tbe neighborhood of Grand avenue and Hebert street, early Tues- day morning, two men were fired upon by a policeman while trying to get into the grocery of J. M. Meinhardt, 2643 Hebert street. Patrolman Garrett G. Davis, Dayton Street District, who pur- sued the burglars, thinks he wounded one’ of them, Bétween 1 and 2 a. m. the drug store cf A. W. Pauley, 31230 North Grand ave- nue, was entered through a transom over the rear door. The burglars had removed a wire screen and pried iron bars apart. From the cash register $7 in coin and $3 worth of postage stamps Were taken. The burglars’ next visited the saloon of Herman Bader at the northwest cor- ner of Grand avenue and Hebert street. Entrance there was. effected in the same manner as at Pauley’s drug store. The thieves helped themselves to _ several drinks, leaving the bottle and glasses on the bar. They took with them several bottles of whisky, a quantity of cigars and a small amount of cash. At 2:20 a. m. Patrolman Davis saw two men trying to separate the iron bars over the transom in the front part of Meinhardt’s place. They had already re- moved the wire screen. At the approach of the policeman the burglars fled. Davis called upon them to halt, and when they failed to obey he fired five shots. The burglars made their escape through an alley between Hebert and Palm streets. Davis is under the im- pression that one of them began lIimp- Ing after the second shot. The burglars were young, smooth- faced men, wearing black clothes. AIDING THE CITY FORESTER Clifton Heights to Be Model as to Trees.

CLAIMANTS OF RUBBER PLANT STRETCH LAW Both Mrs. Michaels and Mrs. Frank-Want It and Courts Get Fight.

FONDLED IT AT NIGHT

When Temptation Became Too Strong to Resist, Wom- an Was Arrested. .

‘he love of two women for the same rubber plant has broken their ties of friendship and has caused one of them to cite the other before the bar of jus- tice on a Charge of theft. Action in the civil courts also jis threatened and the rubber plant may yet grow into a fa- mous cause of action. Its next appear- ance will be in the Court of Criminal Correction on July 2%. The plant, its top broken off, its long green leaves wilted and bedraggied in the rough handling of contending women and interfering policemen, stands in a corner of the back yard of the home of Mrs. Bernard Frank, 3319 Ohio avenue. Mrs. Bertha els, 1213 Dolman avenue, is the woman who was arrested for taking the plant from Mrs. Frank. She claims the plant as her own prop- erty, Mre. Frank claims it as hers. Two Rubber Piants Are Alike. Mrs. Micheels lived formerly in a flat adjoining that of Mrs. Frank. They both used the same front and back yard jointly. And they each had a rub- ber plant. Thereby hangs this tale. The plants’ were exactly the same size. The pots in which they grew were of the safme size and color, too. Mrs. Frank kept her rubber plant in one corner of the front yard and Mrs. Michaels Kept hers In another corner. That was the only way they could tel! them apart. Several months ago Mrs. Michaels hac a falling-out with her husband and she moved away, but didn't take her rubber plant er her furniture. Her husband claimed it and would not let her have it. Mrs. Michaels pined for her rubber plant unc after seVeral wecks had ‘gone by she went to get it. But there was only one rubber plant in the yard and Mrs. Frank said it was hers. Mrs, Michaels insisted it was hers and de- manded it. The women quarreled. Takes Furtive Look at It. | Mrs, Michaels loved the rubber plant 80 much that she used to pass by Mr&. Frank's house to see it and note ite growth, just as a mother separated from her child might go to get a furtive look at it. Mrs, Michaels noted in the last week in May that the rubber plant seemed to be suffering for want of water. This worried her. She went home and could not sleep for thinking of the sufferings of her beloved plant. Bhe got out of bed at 2 o'clock in the morning and went around to Mrs. Frank's house, not te Steal the plant, but just to teuch and fondle it and talk baby talk to it. “On my honor I dia not intend to take the plant,” she says. “I just couldn't sleep because I wan... to see and touch my poor rubber plant.’’ Shows Devotion to Plant. When she reached the home of Mrs. Frank all was dark and quiet. She slipped through the gate an a mo- ment she had her arms around the rubber plant and was xifseing its leaves. The upshot of it was that When she went out of the yard the rubber piant Went with her. She was well on her way to her own home with it when a policeman met her. He thought it a queer thing that a woman should be cartying a rubber plant in her arms at that hour of the ht. @ questioned her and then arrested her, he next day he learned the story of the rubber plant and ite twa women clatroaiis.

un , Se COUNCIL READY 10 REPUDIATE PRINTING AWARD > Attitude of the Plunderbund Shows Gouging Possibilities. tee

Councilman Hauschurte, chairman of the Ways and Mrans Committee of the Council, says he will report without recommendation Tuesday afternoon the award of the German printing contract made to the Abend Angeiger by City Register Regan. The Council then will decide whether the Anzeiger’s bid of 7 cents a line for advertising published by the Star and Chronicle for 2.85 cents a line should be accepted. As the report of a special committee, which investigated the combine of Ger- man newspapers and characterized the Anzeiger’s bid as ‘‘grossly extortionate,”’ was adopted by a unanimous vote of the Council, it is generally regarded certain that the award will be repudi- ated. Councilmen Crunden, Norvell § and Lambert have stated that they will not support a contract at a price higher than 8 cents a line. Counclil- men Ewing and Fitzsimmons are also opposed to letting the contract to the Anzeiger on its bid of 7 cents. Charter Revision Is Favored. It is believed that the German plun- derbund will increase rather than lower their "bids when the City Register calls for new proposals. The letting of a tem- porary contract will be necessitated by the Council’s rejection of the Anzeiger’s bid Tuesday afternoon. Sentiment among officials at the City Hall favors a revision of the charter 80 as to save the taxpayers from the German combine. They hold that pub- lit printing in any language has so far outlived its usefulness and is suscepti- ble of sO many abuses that the whole system ought to be changed. Under present conditions two-thirds of the printing done in newspapers is simply a waste of public funds. An ordinance of 40 lines, when finally made part of the Municipal Code, represents a cost of between $5 and $10 for printing alone. Expense Shown to Be Absurd, The publication of an ordinance au- thorising an outlay of $20 for repairing a sidewalk will entailan expense of §60— treble the amount involved in the im- provement. With newspapers to put the cost of printing many thousands of dollars above the expense of the same work in English, the situation becomes even more in- tolerable for the taxpayers. If John Schroers does the expected and raises thegbids of the Angeiger and Westliche-Post, the public will have a further corroboratién of the charge that there is a plunderbund. His company— the German-American Press Association —Can increase its bid to 10 cents with- out making it possible for the Amerika to get the contract. Oollusion Can Be Proved. As the Amerika's business manager, John Peitzmeler, has informed the Council that his paper would consider success in the ‘‘competition” as a ga- lamity, there probably will be an in- crease of bids among all the German dailies. This would prove collusion between the German-American Press Association, publisher of the Westliche Post and Anzeiger, and the German Literary So- clety, publisner of the Amerika, ONE KILLED IN MINERS’ FIGHT BIRMINGHAM, Ala., July 21.—~a fight is reported in the Blue Creek region between miners and deputies.

CHILDREN FIND ROBBERS LOOT IN BIRD S NEST Jewelry Stolen Ten Years Ago in Robbery of Club Men Recovered. . BRECENRIDGE, Colo., July 21. — Jewelry stolen 10 years ago when ban- dits raided the Denver Hotel clubrooms, has been found by children in a bird's nest. The robbers’ cache was discovered near the summit of Jaque Mountain, in the vicinity of Kokomo, by the children of John Carson. They were at play when they discovered a bird's nest in a hollow in an old rotten tree, and in re- moving this found two gold watches. Aside from the two timepieces and a diamond stud, which were found, the bandits got a $600 solid gold repeating watch and several hundred dollars in cash. It is believed this is hidden in the vicinity. The robbery of the hotel clubrooms was the most daring in the history of Summit County. Four masked men en- tered the place shortly after dark and fined up the proprietor, employes and ‘patrons against the wall, and while two ‘ kept their victims covered the other two went through their pockets and then contents of the cash drawer and safe. They left, warning the occupants of the place not to attempt to follow them, and walked slowly down the railroad tracks toward Kokomo. The men were heavily armed and were known to be For this reason no attempt Was made to overtake them, although officers followed at a distance and saw them enter a cabin opposite the cem- etery and a mile below Kokomo. The next day officers entered the cabin and a battle followed, in which two of the bandits and two officers were killed. One of the men, Ryan, escaped with the loot, but afterward was caught on the Pacific Coast. He is now serving a 8-year term in the Colorado Peni- tentliary. Potato Crop Will Be Short.

Round m9 BUSINESS MAN'S ‘BILL FOR LIGH DUBLEDINYEAR K. O. Gould, Dry Goods Mer- chant, Now Pays $13.20 Against $6.6o. COMMITTEE TO MEET United Light, Heat and Power Body to Discuss Munici- pal Ownership. K. O. Gould, a dry goods merchant at Compton avenue and Olive street, is one of the St. Louis business men who would Hke to see the public utilities bill pass at the Tuesday session of the Council. Mr. Gould has good reasons for desir- ing the city to take advantage of its legal right to regulate public service corporations, for his electric light bill has ncrased 200 per cent in a year. The June bill calls for $13.20 of Mr. Gould's earnings, as against $6.60 for practically the same service for the same month of ast year. vwnen Mr. Gould received the bill he wrote the following letter to the Union Electric Light and Power Co.: “We have received your bill for light- ing our store at 3150 Olive street for the month of June, $13.20. Your corrected bill for May was $10.63. The use of lights in June is not less than 20 min- utes a day less than in May, yet the bill is $2.57 greater. Last year your bill for the same service was $6.60. The in- crease this year is exactly 100 per cent. You reported to me that last month the meter had gained, by being fast, 29 kilowatt hours. Uses No More Light. *‘Perhaps it is still fast. In fact, if we consider the shortness of the nights, it must be very fast. Your treatment of myself and my neighbors is something beyond expression. I wonder if you will yet meet your desserts?’ Mr. Gouius bills have shown a great increase over last year, and he says that he is not using any more light. That electricity can be generated a great deal cheaper than ft was thought possible a few years ago, is shown by the experience of the Commonwealth Edison company of Chicago, said by iocal electrical experts to be the most ably managed electric light and power company in the worid. When the company started to build its great “‘isk street plant, with 100,000 kilo- watt capacity, six vears ago, the engi- neers allowed cight boilers for each 3000 kilowatt turbine. Before the plant was completed it was discovered that these eight boilers, with the same coal, water and labor.. would operate a 14,- 000-kilowatt turbine. Generating Cost Lowe-, Out of the same coal an¢ water and labor the company is now getting three times as much electrical energy as the original plans contemplated. Electric light plants equipped with modern ma- chinery can generate electricity very much cheaper than they could before the Chicago company made its experiments with a comparatively new style of tur- bine. As electricity can be generated very much cheaper than it could a few years ago, experts says there is no reason why the price should continue to be un- reasonable and prohibitive, as it is now to many small consumers. Practically all the big electric com- panies can generate electricity for from % to 2-3 of a cent a kilowatt hour. It is distributed and sold always by the generating company at prices that av- erage somewhere between 7 and 12 cents a kilowatt hour. The Chicago company has a. total connected load equivalent to 4,720,000 16- candle power lamps, or 236,000 kilowatts, which is equivalent power. It has a maximum generating capacity of 126,000 kilowatts, and will ul- timately increase it to 176,000 kilowatts. When the capacity is increased to this size the company will be able, at one time, to light 3,320,000 16-candle-power lamps. Union Electric, with its 45,000 kilowatt capacity, could light 900,000 lamps at one time. Business Men to Meet. The United Light, Heat and Power Committee, organized by the Affiliated Business Men's Association, will meet Tuesday night in parlor B of the Plant- ers Hotel. The committee will hold regular weekly meetings throughout the summer to perfect a plan of campaign for cheaper light and power in St. Louis, Several propositions are under consid- eration. One is for the erection of a municipal lighting plant to supply, not only the city’s needs for light and pow- er in the public buildings and the streets and alleys, but also the requirements of private consumers. Another plan is to purchase the con- duit system in 1911, and, by leasing space to competing companies, stimulate competition that will regulate prices and break up the present monopoly.

GNE-LEGED BURGLAR 6 AWAY WITH SIX UMBRELLAS He Smashes Window of Store and Disappears Before Policeman Arrives. A one-legged burglar smashed a show window in the haberdashery of George Diel, Ninth and Olive streets, and be- fore a watchman who heard the crash of glass arrived on the scene, helped himself to six fine umbrellas and made his escape> The watchman summoned policemen and within a few minutes a general search had been instituted, but no trace of the burglar could be found. A citizen who was passing on the op- posite side of the street at the time told the police the window smasher had a wooden stump, one of his legs being off at the knee. Young Patient Strays From Hospital, Martha Price, a patient at the Fe- male Hospital, walked away from that institution Monday night without tell- ing anyone she was going. The police were requested to look for her. She is 19 years old. TUESDAY—8T. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH—JULY 21, 1908. JOHN D. NOT THE DEMON HE I$ PAINTED, SAYS PASTOR Baptist Ministers Cheer Defense of Oil King by Dr. John E. White. ATLANTA, Ga., July 21.—“T think it is abominable the way John D. Rocke- feller is traduced. We all know that he is not the demon he is painted,” said Dr. John E. White at the meeting of the Atlanta Baptist ministers. Dr, White leaves today for Cleveland to tell Mr. Rockefeller that the other ministers cheered his defense of the oil king. “While we are not in sympathy with the Standard Oli,” said Dr. White, when the cheers had @ied down, “we are aware that Mr. Rockefeller has always been a good Baptist, and a good phil- anthropist. He deserves our appre- ciation for what he has done for the church and for education.” Dr. White will preach in Rockefeller’s Euclid avenue church in Cleveland dur- ing the vacation of its regular pastor. CANDIDATES DO NOT FAVOR CHANGE IN SUNDAY LID LAW Republicans Tell German-American Alliance How They View the Liquor Question. Two Republican legislative candi- dates have notified E. V..P. Schneider- hahn, president of the German Amer- ican Alliance for the district including Missouri, in response to a letter of inquiry from him, that they do not fa- vor any change in the present Sunday closing law. The candidates are C. A. Wlilard, who seeks a renomina- tion in the Sixth District, and yg Reilly, who seeks a nomination in the Fifth District. Mr. Willard says he does not favor State-wide prohibition, but believes in the strict enforcement of the State laws in reference to the sale of liquor. He would like to see the “fake clubs” driven out of existence in justice to the saloon men who pay licenses. Mr. Reilly says he not only does not favor amending the present Sunday closing law, but does not even favor amending the present local option law. In regard to prohibition, he says he favors “the prohibition of all things proven a menace to the. wel- fare of society and the peace and dig- nity of the State.” o-- = 6° ee, ec STREET RAILWAY SE AFTER ALL-NIGHT FIGHT Springfield ( lil.) "Cound Grants Renewal for Two Per Cent ‘Return Annually. SPRINGFIELD, Ill, July 21.—The Springfield City Council at 2a. m. to- day granted to the Clark street raill- way syndicate of New York and Phil- adelphia a 20-year renewal of fran- chise. The fight lasted all night. The new franchise provides that during the first 10 years the company shall pay annually 2 per cent of its income to the city and that during the second term of ten years 4 per cent annual- ly, the money to form a fund to pay off the city’s bonded debt. Preceding its passage a fight was waged throughout the city to secure a larger compensation and to compel the Council to submit the new fran- chise to a referendum, but both failed. The city obtains the right at the end of 20 years to purchase, this section being taken from the Cleveland or- dinance. The campaign has been bit- ter and the councilmen have been ac- cused of being bought. |BGDY OF BABY IN STOVE, PHYSICIAN UNDER ARREST Coroner Says Infant Was Killed by Blow on Head—But Slightly : Burned.

Joseph Green of 1120 Lake avenue, East St. Louis, has been missing since June 28 from his home, and his daugh- ter, Mrs. Fannie Goodsell, is much dis- tressed at his absence. He customarily carried money with him, and when last seen he Had between $75 and $100. Green was 55 years old, with square shoulders, a sandy mustache and brown hair. The backs of both his hands bear many small white scars from cuts he received in an explosion. Green left his home to take a position in Baden, but did not appear there.

DES MOINES, Io., July 21.—‘Billy” Williams, the former star minstrel, has wandered away and his wife says he is demented. His wife and three small children are alone in_ their room at 418 West Fourth street, this city. They lack the necessities of life and the youngest child is ill. Since early Saturday Williams has been missing and for two days the wife has searched, when the ill child could be left with his little brother. -Then she gave up and spent yesterday with the children alone in their room. Mrs. Williams declares her husband’s mind has gone; that his troubles and trials of the last few week's have made it a complete wreck. Williams recently has been engaged in religious work in this city. —} Alone

LOUIS POST-DISPATOH—JULY 21, 1908. OR “PELLEAS AND MELISANDE” @ 7". Arthur Maude of. Constance Crawley Company Arrang- ing New Scenic Effects. —_— Some novel seenic innovations are being planned for the production of “Pelleas and Melisande,’’ next Thursday evening by Constance Crawley and her associate players, for the benefit of the Post-Dispatch Pure M'': and Free Ice Fund. 3 Arthur Maude of Miss Crawley’s com- pany, who wi!! play the important role of Goland in Thursday night's offer- ing, is the originator of the new ideas and is directing the work of carrying them into effect. He has carefully studied the possibilities of the beautiful garden of the W. K. Bixby home, Lin- ad boulevard and King’s highway, whe the Open-Air Dramatic Festival is bei held, and is confident of the " excellent pictorial results. The especial novelties contemplated by Mr. Maude are an ingenious arrange- ment of lights that shall bring out even more fully than in last week’s presen- tation of ‘‘Romeo and Jullet’”’ the beauty of the natural scenic setting, and, in addition, a striking method of seating a portion of the audience that shall great- ly emphasize the picturesque quality of the scene as a whole. Mr. Maude says that his plans are ent're!y practicable, and he is already at work upon them. Those who witnessed the production of “Romeo and Julicet’’ last week declared the picture then presented to be the most beautiful, in the line ‘of artistic gtage settings, ever seen in St. Louis. According to Mr. Maude’s present plans, they will be surpassed in Thursday night’s production of ‘“Pelleag and Melisande,’’ the exquisite play that gave Maeterlinck the leading place among poetic dramatists of this generation.

No other medicine has such a record of success for women’s diseases, or such hosts of grateful friends as has Pinkham’s Vegetable Com- pound.

Thomas, 23 years old, fired upon her. The young woman fell to the floor with 4 bullet wound in he. at®domen. Her scream of agony revea:ed his mistake to the husband, and he knelt beside her in their home, 1320 Poplar street, and begged to be punished for his act. Mrs. ‘thomas was removed to St. Jo- seph’s Hospital. Her condition is critl- cal, Policeman Kanwell of the Tenth and Buttonwood § streets” station, at- tracted by the report of the revolver, arrested the husband. He was held to await the result of his wife's injuries. Heard Noise and Watched. Tossing restiessly in bed. unable to sleep because of the heat, Thomas was in that condition which !{s half sleep and half wakefulness, when a noise from another part of the house caused him to become very much awake. Man; burglaries have recently been commit- ted in the neighborhood, and Thomas jumped immediately to the conclusion that thieves had forced an entrance to his home. lio sprang from bed. From a drawer he took his revolver. In bare feét he silently crept into the hallway. He list- ened intently. The noise was repeated. It came from another room on‘the sec- ond floor. Thomas held his revolves ready for immediate action. He made his way, silently as a cat, down the hall- way. It was extremely dark, and the man hunting for burglars could not distinguish features. All he saw was something white glide from the bath- room door. Shoots at White Object. Thomas fired point blank.at the ob- ject in white. There rang out the scream of a woman, in which Thomas rec- ognized the voice of his bride. His re- volver fell from his nerveless hand and he sprang forward and threw himself by her side. She was moaning. Thom- as lifted up her head and called upon her to speak to him, to tell him that she lived, but she continued to moan. Thomas ran to a window. “I’ve shot my wife,’” he screamed. “Send for a polidééman and an ambu- lance.”” He opened the front deor and Women came in and attended the wounded woman. Policeman Kanswelli ran .up. “IT want to be punished for this,” groaned Thomas to the policeman, ani recounted the story of the shooting. He appeared relieved when his wire Was placed in a patrol wagon and hur ried to the hospital. He gladly went along with the policeman and said he Was entirely satisfied when the door of a cell was locked behind him. The police, while putting credence in Thomas’ recital of the manner in which the shooting occurred, are making an investigation, and if the investigation bears out his story, the police will ask for his release on small bail. Mrs. Thomas will probably live. HONEY IN SMOKESTACKS Bees Light Upon Idle Locomotive as Fine Place to Hive. ALTOONA, 3:., July, 18.—Bees are fwarming in the smokestacks of the idle locomotives and whippoorwills are nest- ing under the stored cars belonging to the Pennsylvania Railroad near the Juniata shops. Thus the hard times are not without an odd feature now and then, An immense swarm of bees took pos- session of a smokeless stookestack, and got busy, preparing for a long stay, when a workman discovered them.

MACON, Ga., Jul “—The way Unit- ed States Deputy Marshal Dave Riley, his brother Frank, an officer of similar rank, and Chai’les D. Williams, revenue collector, fell in upon a large illicit dis- tillery in the swamps, six miles west of Milner, was told in the evidence ad- duced before United States Commission- er L. M. Erwin when Grover Cleveland Coggins and William Aldine McKinley, two native farmers, wearing the names of two of the national heroes and states- men, were arrigned for a hearing for making ‘‘mountain dew.”’ After sneaking through the bushes for a mile or more, the officers peered into a little recess on the creek where there were three men working away busily at a well-arranged still. Dave Riley made the discovery, for he had scented the still a long distance. Thinking his help- ers were near him, he jumped out, gavdé the yell that meant war, and seized a man. He had misjudged and while he was holding on in a struggle with Coggins, the others jumped intc the creek and reached the opposite side, with Williams following on their heels. Revolvers were fired, but it did not stop the men. Frank Riley dived through the swamp after the fleeing moonshiners, but they left, him and his companions tangled in the underbrush. Back at the stilk Dave Riley held on until he subdued Coggins. The offieers set to work to destroy the distillery. With axes they chopped up everything in sight, and while rambling around the premises found the dinners _ of some of the men. When they sat down to a meal William McKinley came slipping through the bushes vith an- other meal hot frou. the home of the men. and found himself arrested. Both McKinley and Coggins were placed under: bonds before Commissioner @r- win and will be required to answer be- fore the grand jury. “REVISED” WAGNER STARTS RIOT Audience Objects to Curtailment of Opera VIENNA, July .%.—There was a vi- olent scene at the Operahouse here during the performance of the “Wal- kyrie.”’ It had been reported that Herr Weingartner, the conductor. had cur- tailed the work. This was resented, and as soon as the audience observed that certain numbers were being omitted they burst into an uproar, and shouted that they would have no alterations of the original. The police were compelled to in- tervene, and arrested a number of in- dignant professors of music and stud- ents. w York Brokers Suspend.

If everyone had the chance that you have to get it, we could scarcely begin to supply the demand for it. Think what .a percentage of homes must be using it in the towns that we do supply. You will use it, too, when you know it. You will use it. exclusively—for cooking, for drinking, for coffee. When you know these facts, and prove them, nobody could get you to go back to raw milk. A Germless Milk. Van Camp’s is a germless milk. Every cow is inspected—so are the men who milk them. No tubercular cows, no diseased milkmen, convey their infections to Van Camjes Milk. Our dairies are sanitary. Our factor- ies, where the. milk is evaporated, are built without wood. We make @q busi- ‘ness of cleanliness. Then the milk is sterilized after the cans are sealed. Not a germ of any kind can remain in it. Compare that with milkman’s milk. A single germ, left in milk a few hours, breeds millions of others like it. So there are myriads of germs in every drop of raw milk. If the cow is tubercular, there are germs of consumption. If the milk cans are washed in impure water, there are germs of typhoid. If the milkman is diseased, or the dairy uncleanly, the infections are bound to be conveyed in the milk. A very large share of the illness in the world is known to be due to milk.

SCHROERS THREATENS TO SUE FOR SWAG. The city.of St. Louis has never been more com- pletely gouged than by the John Schroers print- ing trugt, and in all of their experience with trusts the people of this city have nevef had to deal with one so bold. The Schroers printing trust makes up in greed what it lacks in girth, and after feeding:on the city for several years, during which it has extract- ed thousands upon thousands of dollars for which it did not return substantial value, it has finally arrived at the point of daring where it actually threatens to mandamus the city if the city does not continue to pay the boodle price of 7 cents a line for printing that is not worth 2 cents a line. The people will demand that the authorities re- ‘gist this‘ hold-up to the finish ani fight a suit to the bitter end before yielding one cent more of the public funds to the plunderbund. Let Mr. Schroers sue. It will be time enough to pay him at the end of a long lawsuit, and if he dares to in- voke’ existing provisions to force unconscionable claims the people will conclude that their posi- tion is well worth testing in any event. — A.» ll i Me It is reported that Mr. Sheldon wants $3,000,000 for the Republican campaign fund. Does it really cost 50 genie apiece to get the voters out? oe ee Oe a THE RIGHT KIND oF CROSSINGBILLS. The new grade crossing bills introduced in the Counell.by Mr. Cramer come at the matter from the correct standpoint. They throw the burden of abolishing the cross- ings on the railroads, where it belongs, instead of dealing with such a pretense as authorizing the city to avoid the crossings by raising or low- ering its streets. It cannot reasonably be claimed that grade crossing work done and paid for by the railroads 1s public work which would come within the | jurisdiction of the Board of Public Improve- ments. President O’Reilly’s. objection to the Cra- mer bills is as manifestly strained as it is in the interest of the railroads, which the Board has _ been protecting for a quarter of a century at the _ expense’of the liveg and limbs of the people. A spetial virtue of the Cramer measures is that ' they put the work out of the power of O’Reilly and the Board to defeat or delay it, and they , ought to be enacted promptly into law. a

eT ST. LOUIS AND THE GOVERNORSHIP. In two weeks the Democratic voters of Mis- souri are to select a man who is likely to be des- ignated as Governor ef Missouri in November. Under the primary law, and it {s one of the ob- vious disadvantages of the direct primary system, their choice will be limited in this case to four candidates. These gentlemen are David A. Ball of Pike County, Henry F. Stapel of Rockport and Wil- liam 8. Cowherd and William H. Wallace of Kaii- sas City. All have been heard in their own be- half and the Post-Dispatch Kas endeavored to give them a fair and adequate representation in its columns. : It appears that Judge Wallace and Mr. Stapel have assumed extreme positions on questions of excise and Sunday laws, the former standing for '}an excess of illiberality and the latter for a wide open State. While both are to be commended for their honesty and zeal, the candidacy of neither should appeal with much force to the people of St. Louis. 2 Leaving these gentlemen out of the question, we have to deal only with Messrs. Cowherd and Ball, the one an able and experienced man and the other celebrated chiefly as an unsuccessful a-pirant for office and a stump speaker of some rv’- natural force who enjoys. considerab!e pop- ularity. In everything that is looked for in high office Mr. Cowherd is emphatically to be preferred over Mr. Ball. He has more ability. He has had more expérience in public life. He is Mr. Ball’s su- perior in charactef and in dignity. He would make a better Governor than Mr. Ball could ever hope to become. : But there is one question as to Mr. Cowherd which has not yet been answered to the entire satisfaction of the people of St. Louis. It is known that he is favored here by the local repre- sentatives of the Old Gang. If elected, is he to be their particular friend and servant? Are his relations with them so cordial that on his as- sumption of office we may find Harry B. Hawes in control of the police establishment and the election machinery of this city? Both Cowherd and Ball are publicly- pledged to enforce the laws, but that is to be accepted as a matter of course. A man who as Governor would not enforce the laws would be unthink- able. How will they enforce the laws? Through what instrumentalities will they enforce the laws? These questions apply with greatest force to William 8, Cowherd, in whose train Harry B. Hawes is conspicuous. If he can satisfy the peo- ple of St, Louis that Hawes is not to be Deputy Governor of this town under the Cowherd admin- istration he: ‘Should receive an overwhelming this, it is possible that he may gain the nomination. but he may depend upon it that the question will pursue him to the ballot boxes in November, perhaps to his own undoing. ha, di A rr The St. Paul balloon race is said to have been a failure. Failed, in what respect? They all went up and they all came down, Was anything else expected? Aeronautics is one thing; floating about in. he air in bulbous gas bags is quite an-

ani i, A i i SLOELIVE ECONOMICALLY. “Op of economical liv’ng discussed by corresponde of the Post-Dispatch is especially important in a time when prices are very high and employment uncertain. It i. evident that many housekeepers do not know i.ow to make the best of small means. For them the letters in the correspondence column should be instructive and profitable. _A young housewife wrote to say she could not feed ner husband and herself on 30 cents a day, which was all she had available for that purpose. But “Economics” furnishes an estimate which shows that the thing Js possible. Intelligence should be an ingredient in every dish. This, with @ car®ful economy of materials, will enable people to save much that with thoughtless and careless cooking will go to waste. By comparing notes housekeepers can get use- ful hints along these lines and-learn from one another. & e > -

Rain has fallen in St. Louis nearly every week this summer and the temperature has been com- fortable. It is not probable that the coming six weeks contain weather too hot for the most timid summer resorters. So far as weather is an influ- ence they can all come home. La Lh he — a COMMON SENSE ON TUBERCULOSIS. Vriting in the London Chronicle, Dr. J. H. larke says: “If anyone chooses the fresh-air met of departing this life, by all means let him ‘take ft, but let him respect the right of other BPRS? pong their own method for themselves. r its victims no less than foul. The tubercle bacillus does not enjoy fresh air, but there are plenty of other bacilli which rejoice in it. If consumptives thrive out of doors, the subjects of bronchitis are generally only safe when they stay in.” Anyone who has seen poor wretches at health resorts shivering their unhappy lives away in fresh, icy air ‘will appreciate this breath of fresh, common sense. Patients have been sent into the Adirondacks to live in tents in midwinter, and others have

been shipped off to the Rocky Mountains, there to die in a most unaccountable fashion, for, did not they need fresh air and did not they get it? There is one important element of health that many doctors ignore—sheer, mere bodily comfort. There is roason to believe that this element is the most important. We hear of “cures” for consumption, but one after the othen they are tried and discarded, leaving a trail of funerals in their track. It is safe to say that there is no remedy which will apply to all cases, and just as certatfi that every

‘ remedy should be applied with ’ dantakintion and judgment, having special regard for indi- vidual temperament and need. Pure air is good, but it is just as good in a warm room as it is any- where else, and much better than when it comes straight and untempered from the ice fields of the North. No remedy is worth anything unless in apply- ing it it is mixed with common sense.

rr In St. Louls County the “drys” have resorted to injunctions to restrain the “wets” from drink- ing on Sunday. Turn about is sometimes regard- ed as fair play, and how would it do for the “wets” to sue out mandamus and force the “drys” to drink on weekdays? ha, die. ——— | rere WHAT ABOUT HARD TIMES?

FACTS ABOUT THE RACE. Start at New York, 10 a. m., July 16. Distance, 1000 miles. Number of runners, 2000. Finish at City Hall, 9:35 a. m., July 21. Elapsed time, about lit hours. Original schedule beaten 11 hours and 55 minutes. Deliverer of McCabe. Chicago, message, William

CHICAGO, July 21.—The Young Men’s Christian Association relay race, which began in New York at 10 a. m. last Wednesday, came to a brilliant close in the City Hall here at 9:38 a. m. today. The silver tube containing the mes- sage of Mayor McClellan of New York lo Mayor Busse of Chicago was carried over the final scratch by Wm. H. Mc- Cabe of the Evanston Y. M. C. A. Mc- Cabe received the message at La Sall« and Monroe streets, but had a hard time of it making his way along the two blocks to the City Hall. He was compelled to stop several times by street cars and wagons and, as he expressed it, “I made no time at all.’’ ‘The eager-faced youth was cheered as he dodged hither and thither in a desperate endeavor to avoid delay. At the City Hall, McCabe came under the protecting shelter of a squad of po- licemen, who kept the crowds at a re- spectful distance. Mayor Busse, how- ever, was not present, and the duty of receiving the message devolved upon Service Commission. Reading the Meseage. Mr. Bean promptly turned it over to Assistant Corporation Counsel Childs, who read the somewhat soiled typewrit- ten sheet as follows: “To the city of Chicago, the city of New York sends greetings by the fleet runners of the Young Men’s Christian Aossociation. “This message is borne on foot, with- out a halt from the Atlantic to Lake Michigan, and the hundreds of boys who carry it gain no prize except the consciousness of having done their best. GEORGE B. McCLELLAN, ‘‘Mayor.”’ “Fon. Fred. A. Busse, Mayor, Chicago, yu.” Thus ended the race of 1000 miles by hundreds of boys ranging in age from 12 to 21 years. The distance was cov- ered in 119h. 22m. ‘The time declared in the mayor’s office to be official, was three minutes less than this, but the an- nouncement that the finish occurred at 9:% instead of 9:38 was declared to be inaccurate. _ : Crowds of spectators watched with keen interest the cleancut youths with gleaming limbs and eyes as they raced through the city streets and boulevards from the time they reached the city limits, at 7:53 a. m., until the last man reached the mayor’s office. The last 100 miles of the run was be- set with many @ifficulties, not by traf- fic in the downtown district. The woods and sand hills of Indi- ana, last night, also delayed the run- ners. Although the runners crossed the lim- ite some miles out, their real entrance into the city proper took place at Gar- field boulevard and Halsted street. Here the boys were met by two mounted park police who attempted to trot ahead of them. but were compelled to break into a canter in order to keep up. Automobiles Help Delay Men. A train of automobiles preceded the corner to increase the speed. The last few miles of the race was really a series of hundred-yard dashes. Another train of motor cars picked up each tired athlete as fast as he finished his sprint. Inside the city it is calculated that the boys made a rate as high ds twenty miles an hour. Mayor Busse’s absence was due to the fact that he had not expected the runners until this afternoon. It was quickly arranged that the Mayor should receive the runners at 2 p. m., when Mayor McClellan's message will be pre- sented to him formally. PROTESTED GUP IS GIVEN TO THE WINNER, SHAMROCK NEW YORK, July 2.—Frederick Thompson's schooner yacht Shamrock has been officially declared the win- ner of the Lipton Cup, the principal prize in the Cape May race of the

This decision has been bieeel owing to a protest of Stuyvesant Wain- wright, owner of the sloop Mimosa ITI, second in the race against the rating of the Shamrock, as announced by the committee before the start of the con- test. That there should be no further trou- ble in the matter, the Regatta Com- mittee of the club, at the request of all the parties interested, asked ‘Prof. William Hallock, measurer of the New

would tally. TRis morning the grand total of points was 103 to 52, in favor of the United Kingdom, and the flag hoister is get- ting restless for want of American ac- tivity. Mr. James E. Sullivan and others who look after American interests in Olym- pics are creaking under the weight of responsivity for this. They permitted the team to enter without the Olympic committee having decided on any den- nite method of naming the winning country other than that the team secor- ing the most firsts would win the point trophy. Furthermore, for four years this has been the case. England Has Most Firsts. As it stands, Britain is sure to walk away with the greatest number of firsts, what with the great number of outside contests. For the future smoothness of Olympic contests it is probable that the Inter- national Committee will agree upon a system of scoring which will be more suitable than the one England puts in vogue. The best way out of the controversy in years to come will be to name a cer- tain number of Ulympic events to be known as standard events, and which alone are to figure in the scoring. A maximum o1 2 woul. seem to cover all sorts of competition, including track, field and contests of a strongly com- petitive nature. For the present Olympics, the only way America seems likely to get any satisfaction out of the contests is b figuring points scored only in suc events as it h.-..entries. In many cases America sent in entries purely to help fill out and not because the sports were American or generally contested in our athletic programs here. And even figuring America’s points in this manner its task of winning is by no means a sinecure. R. JOHN McGRAW its unpleas- M antly frank sometimes, despite his mild demeanor off the baseball field and his willingness gen- erally to unbosom himself on all base- ball affairs—that don’t concern his own team. McGraw has sized up the St. Louls Browns’ pennant chances and he likes them, not. He says there are several men on the club who are not of championship caliber: that he is sorry but that he can not figure the Browns as the team which will play the Giants fur the world’s champion- ship. He adds} instructively, that the Browns’ pitchers have kept the club up in the front. It may be that the Browns will ndt lay the Giants for the world’s flag. n fact Fred Clarke of the Pittsburg team assured the writer that it was the Pirate club that would have the honor of trying for the big pot of gold that lies at the end of the world’s championship rainbow. Then there's a possibility that it may be our old friends the Cubs that may play the Browns for the title; and then there's the possible chance, remote, we trust, that the Browns will not play for the title at !

See rs saan “aol Rawhide, Opening Price Was Eighth Cent Off of Monday’s Close, but Rallied. ’ The wheat market opened Tuesdiy at t9% for September, an eighth to a quar- ter of a cent lower thap Monday's close, There was an equalization of values after the first two hids and the price Was pushed up to three-quarters in the course of an hour. ® dro back ‘to five-eighths, then advan an eighth, seesawing being the principab feature of the pit for a time, then the price seemed to settle around 8%{c. Next there was a boost to seven-eighths, The traders'were about equally di- vided. The advices were favorable to elther side just as the inclination lay. Broomball, in his weekly summary of conditions throughout the world, states that the outlook for wheat in the United States is less favorable than expected, and that there_ will be a shortage as compared to last year because of weath- er conditions. In France, he saya, the yield is below the avérage. In Austria an official bulletin is given as authority for the statement that the wheat crop is fair, tne rye crop good, while ali other grainsare, suffering from ary weather. In Roumania the prospects for wheat are unfavoable and excellent for corn, and in Bulgaria an average wheat out- @ ligok ard good corn prospects are the "dene," Russia’s crop showing Is that winter wheat is bad and spring wheat late. Germany's report is less favorable than last week, but a good yiéld is promised. The Australian crop is favorably re- ported and there has been a resumption of shipments by chartered steamers. Advices to local brokers from Chicago state that the wheat market there has a very bullish undertone and an e reflection of buying orders. From ‘the same source is received the informia- tion that the strength of the market {a in the attitude of Minneapolis, whic) has been instrumental and has taken the initiative in holding prices up, and the buying by Bartlett, Patten & (Co Lecount wires that he thinks after a lengthy investigation that the North Da- kota crop is light, but adds that it Is largely guess work. Liverpoo! closed with spots unchanged to %d lower and corn off. Paris ranged from \%e up to \% off. There was no Antwerp Marnet.
