SMITH FLOORS NEVILLE IN CITY HALL FIST Flan! TEARS OUT HER UNGUE: REVENGE OF JILTED LOVER —

wr Political Feud Said to Havef{Man Returns to Find His Caused Commissioner’s Quarrel With Clerk.

EMPLOYES PART »THEM Former Congressional Candi- date Knocked Down Trying to Clear Counter.

SEQUEL TO ELECTION Report That Faction Would Support Walsh Angered Smith-Gill Faction.

An old political feud is said to have been back of a fist fight between Build- ing Commissioner James A. Smith and George Neville, chief clerk in the of- fies of City Collector Hagerman. The encounter occurred in Hagerman’s of- fice and ended after the first round, when Smith scored a knock-down. Ne- ville’s friends stopped the bout. A score of clerks in the office looked up in surprise when the altercation be- gan and they spread the news through the City Hall. It created excitement and deepened the intensity of ill-feel- ing between the Neville and Smith-Gill factions in the Twenty-seventh ward. Neville Dodges Blow. Smith went into the Collector's office Friday afternoon apparently with the intention of talking to» Neville, who was behind a counter. There was a sharp interchange of words and Neville laid his hand on the counter as if to spring over it. Building Commissioner Smith twung his right, but Neville ducked and the blow fanned the air. _Neville then climbed on to the counter, ‘making toward his opponent; and Sinitt Bwung hard again. The biow landed, and knocked Neville off the counter to the floor. Neville jumped up and ran into an inner office. What his purpose was in doing this did not become apparent, as his friends stopped him before he re- turned. They persuaded Smith to re- turn to his office and active hostilities were suspended. Neville was the Democratic nominee lor Congress two years ago in the Elev- inth District, which is usually Demo- tratic by a majority of two or three jhousand. He was defeated by Henry M. Caulfield, the incumbent. Said He Was “Knifed.” At the same time Patrick J. Gill, who lives in the same ward with Smith and Neville, was a candidate for Sheriff on the Democratic ticket. He was defeat- x. Neville declared after, the election that he had been “knifed’’ by Gill and Smith—that they had ‘‘traded’”’ with Saulfield, his friends voting for Gill for Sheriff and Gill’s friends voting for Caulfield for Congress. The Twenty- seventh Ward was split into two fac- ‘fons, and much bitterness developed. Gill again is a candidate, this time for the Democratic nomination for Con- tress, and Neville’s friends are openly ppposing him. A report is said to have been circulated by a friend of Neville ihat the Gill-Smith faction had com- bined with the Daley-Miles-Butler forces and had promised to throw their rotes to Henry M. Walsh for Circuit Attorney on a promise that Walsh's support would be thrown to Gill. This report angered the Gill-Smith faction, and is said to have been the lirect cause of the encounter in the City Hall. Building Commissioner Smith refused to discuss the fight or the causes lead- ing up to it when interrogated by a Post-Dispatch reporter. “So far as I am concerned,”’ said he, ‘‘the incident is closed.” Mr. Neville said: “Mr. Smith and I had a heated argu- ment about politics, but I do not wish to yo into that matter at this time. There was really no serious trouble between as. Mr. Smith said something that I Hid not like and I was about to ciimb pver the counter in the office to reach him when he struck at me. “Tf he hit me, however, I do not know t. His blow, I think, fe?! short and I fropped to the floor. Several of the tlerke then restrained me. I did not tun for any weapon. The whole thing sw a tempest in a teapot.” Smith Secking Office.

Crowd Ties Him to Heels of Horse and He Is Dragged to Death. PADUA, Italy, July 2.—Tearing out his sweetheart's tongue because she had broken her promise to waif until he could marry her, brought swift retribu- tion today to Francisco Vergani. Maddened by his deed, a crowd tied him to the heels of a horse and he was dragged two miles, every bone in his body béing broken. Eight years ago Vergani fell in love with Eloise Ferrari, who lived at Mon- felice, a village near here. But Ver- gani was poor and swearing the girl to constancy, he left for America. For six years Vergani heard regularly from his sweetheart, then lettcrs failed. +Two months ago as he was leaving Bos- ton for Italy, he learned that she had married, and his love turned to hatred. Arriving in Italy, he disguised himself as an itinerant dentist and drove to Montfelice, where he arrived at fair time. He had performed a number of minor operations, when hig former sweetheart climbed up into his wagon and seated herself in the chair. Tore Out Part of Tongue. Catching up a pair of forceps, he opened the woman’s mouth and tore out a big part of her tongye, while the crowd and the husband looked on, para- lyzed with horror. “Tie him to his horse and let it drag him to death,’? was the cry as the mob of-infuriated peasants seized Ver- gani. In an instant he was overpowered and bound to the heels of the animal, which then was lashed to a gallop. After a two-mile run the horse was stopped and Vergani was loosened. He . Was crushed almost beyond recognition. It is probable that the woman will die.

| oee?¢eee Without having opened her eyes to greet with a smile the anxious face of her fiance, who had been sitting be- side her bed in St. Luke's Hospital two dreary days and nights waiting for her to recover consciousness, Miss Lillie Brauer died Saturday, and Martin Becker walked unsteadily from the door of the hospital and went to her mother’s home, 3136 Pennsylvania avenue, where he told them between his sobs that she was dead. There was just a tinge of resent- ment in young Becker’s mind when his fiancee called him over the tele- phone Tuesday evening and asked his Permission to go automobiling with Thomas W. Fetch, a neighbor. Beck- er gave his consent and told the girl to‘have a good time. She replied with & message of love and hung up the receiver. Girl Hurled to Ground. While the automobile was speeding along Clayton road, Fetch turned it to one side to pass another machine. His automobile struck a horse and came to a quick stop. Miss Brauer was hurled to the ground and was rendered unconscious. Fetch placed her in his machine and drove to St. Luke's Hospital with great speed. He sent for her mother, Mrs. L. J.

| LANCASTER, Pa., July 2%.—Al!l! rec- ords for contributions to the cauge of missions were broxen at tHe closing ex- ercises of the thirteenth annual conven- tion of the Christian and Missionary Alliance for Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland and the District of Columbia, which: has been held the past week at Rocky Springs. Under the persuasive influence of the Rev. Dr. A. B. Simpson of New York more than $52,000 was raised, a large portion of it being in cash, while some y of the more frenzied took jewelry from their persons and threw it into the contribution plates. Active missionary workers from the foreign flelds gave their experiences and told of the great need of funds to rescue the millions of heathens, and one of the speakers called for volun- teers to work in the foreign climes. About a dozen young persons stood up and gave their names. Following these addresses, which stir- red the several thousand hearers, the annual missionary offering was taken up, under the direction of F» H.. Senft, the superintendent. Philadelphia and Pittsburg branches responded with sub- scriptions of $8000 each. Scranton came next, with $5000. The Mennonites of Eastern Pennsylva- nia, who are earnest supporters of the mission cause, gave $4000. From Pitts- burg came an addition of $1000, given by a negro branch. Lancaster city gave $800, Cash offerings exceeded all previous collections, and, as the _ collectors passed through the great audience, the hats which they carried were filled with silver and greenbacks. Scores of persons were converted dur- ing the convention, a number of the sick’ have been healed through the pray- ers of the workers, and one convert, it is said, received the gift of tongues. The Alliauce members have great faith in the efficacy of prayer, and several times during the week some of the more enthusiastic prayed all night.

America, for the fifth sucessive time, is victor in the Olympie ee track and field games. In the events concluded today, after the stormiest two weeks in the history of modern Olympiads, the Americans again were victorious in the 110-meter hurdles, winning all three positions and increasing their total to 115 points. America finished first in the 1600-meter relay race, the final event of the day. As compared with the performance of the American team, the Britons them- selves, counting Ireland, Scotland and Wales entries, totaled 571-3, while the representatives from the British de- pendencies scored 20 more points, Count- ing them all; the United States still have scored nearly 40 points more than their principal rivals. Anglo-Saxon Is Supreme. Other nations have not counted in the point scoring to any extent and it is ev- ident that when it comes to sports the Anglo-Saxon is the dominant race of the world. Perhaps the most interesting fact de- veloped during the games in the great London Stadium is the “reversal of form’ shown by both England and America. Britain has always been noted for its middle-distance runners and cross-coumry and long-distance per- formers. America’s supremacy has been unquestioned in the sprints, although one of the biggest events in the English athletic world is the Sheffield Handi- cap, a dash of a trifle over 100 yards. Thus, the Yankee team did not even stop to worry about its sprinters. It considered that in Rector, Cartmeil, Huff, Taylor, Carpenter, Robbins and other; it had every event from the 100- meter race up to 150-meter event wrapped up and stowed away. Likewise, the English considered that they had every contest from the 1500-meter event to the Marathon at their mercy. To the surprise of everyone, America did not take a single sprint race. Walk- "ler of South Africa, in a wonderful per- formance, beat Rector a foot in the 190-meter event in 10 4-5s., record time. Kerr of Canada won the 30-meter event and the 40-meter race went to Halis- welle of England, after the latter had been beaten by Carpenter and Robbina, Hallawelle today won the run-off,. the other Americags refusing to compete against him after Carpenter's win had been discredited by the officials. Sheppard's Wonderful Race. The English, on the ether hand, thought they had the 1500-meter race, virtually the mile run, wrapped up, The wonderful race of Meivin W. Sheppard, the-athlete who was barred from the New York police force because he had a bad heart, defeated the hopes of the British, however. In the thon run, the Britons were far rear after setting the pace for America here had two men in counting positions, first and. th own Joe Forshaw tallying point made at the .Olympics by a Louls man. The manner in which America ut- terly outclas#ed all competitors is shown in the table of points. In only three events In which they had entries did America fall to score points. These were the javelin throw, the five-mile run and the hop, step and jump. Two of these events are virtually obsolete in this country. On the other hand, tie American team made a clean sweep in the discus throw, free style, the pole vault and the 110-meter hurdle race, The meet was a complete victory for American athletics, and would have been satisfactory from the American standpoint save for the constant bicker- ings which marred the contesta.

From the big Exmouth, the flagship, floated the pennant of Admiral Assheton Curson-Howe, from the In- domitable, England’s giant battleship, streamed the royal banner. Rear Ad- miral ‘Sir John Jellicoe’s flag was up on the Albemarie. Admiral Jauregiberry’s ensign of Francé rose above the Leon Gambetta, and Admiral Cowles displayed his col- ors above the New Hampshire. The other vessels taking part in the naval pageant were the French battle- ships Russell and Duncan and the cruis- ers Venus and Arrogant. var inapects Fieet. As the Prince approached the line of sea fighters, thunders of cheers rang out over the river and beat back from the cliffs above the gray old town. Grim and gray lay the long line of British warships; the drab paint of the French fighters gave them an ominous aspect which not all the flags could relieve, but the New Hampshire, the sun glaecing upon her white sides and flashing back from her polished brass, looked like a court dandy. Inspection of the fleet took up most of the morn- ing. The enthusiasm eclipsed even that of the military review of yesterday. The Prince late in the morning returned to the citadel to prepare for the great historical pageant to be enacted, late this afternoon. NINETEEN INDIANS SLAIN N- FIGHT WITH SOLDIERS Two Troopers Aiso': Lose Lives in Battle Near Colorado Min- ing Camp. TUCSON, Ariz., July 25.—Two soldiers and 19 Indians, including Chief Dolores, long known as a trouble-maker for the whites, were slain in a pitched bat- tle on the Immaculada ranch, near Cetro, Colo, a mining camp. Five sol- diers were wounded. How many of the Indians were wounded cannot be learn- ed, as they took the injured with them in retreat. The Papagos, usually a peaceful tribe, resented efforts to‘ return them to their reservation. Capt. Baron and 60 soldiers were sent out against them, and were firing an Indian village when the tribes- men, returning from the hills, rushed to defend their homes. The troops drew the Indians into a trap by feigning retreat, and soon rout- ed them. The Wounded soldiers were taken to Hermosillo.

Ellison, Insurance Agent, Was Last Seen by Friends Wednesday. eee ® OVERWORKED HIMSELF Failed to Heed Relatives, Ad- |. vice to Employ Help— Mind Was Affected. TS No trace has been found by his rela- tives of the mbdvements of Henry R. Ellison, the missing insurance agent of 5060 Ridge avenue, since he left a sa- loon at King's highway and Easton avo- nue, at 6:30 a. m., Wednesday. Ellison’s brother, James A. Ellison of 1925 North Market street, was no- tified Saturday by a Mrs. Schaefer of 1385 Clara avenue that she saw the missing man at Wellston, Thursday night. An investigation showed she was mistaken. When Ellison was in the saloon early Wednesday, he said nothing about his prospective movements. He did not take a drink or talk to the bartender. He bought a cigar and walked quietly out. He had walked over to the saloon from his home, two blocks distant, after telling his wife he would return in a few minutes. He Had Talked Strangely. Throughout .the night -preceding he had been unable to sleep and had talked strangely. He told his wife he had great business worries and that while he was in St. Charles Tuesday he thought of jumping into the river. Throughout the night Mrs. Ellison talked to him and thought she had con- vinced him that he should not take his lite. She asked him to tell her his trou- bles and she would share them with him and possibly straighten them out. He replied that she had all she could do to take care of their five children. Now that Eliison has not returned or left word of his whereabouts, his rela- tives fear he may have carried out the suicide threat, despite his wife’s pilead- ings. They realize that his mind has become affected, and have a hope that it may have caused him merely to wan- der away. James Ellison told a Post-Dispatch re- porter that his brother’s mental condi- tion was not due to lack of business. Would Not Obtain Help. “It was due to too much business,” he said. “He went into the insurance business for himself only a year ago and his success since has been remarkable. He had more business than he could take care of, working n@ht and day. We wanted’ ifm to get a good man to help him, but he wouldn’t. He was told he would injure himself by working too hard, but he would not listen to us. That’s what affected his mind. But we didn’t know it until too late.”’ Ellison is 39 years old. He is about 5 feet 5 inches, tall and thin. His hair is brown and he has a stubby mustache of sandy hue. He wore a blue suit, tan shoes and a black derby hat when he left home.

HELD FAST IN CASE Monkeys, Porcupine, Casso- wary and Japanese Fowls Also Brought Over. NEW YORK, July 25.—With the largest snake ever brought to the United States on board the Hudson, one of the Anglo-American Oi] Co.'s steam- ships, anchored off Stapleton from the Far East. His snakeship, taken on at Singapore by Capt. C. B. Fenton, com- mander of the Hudson, is 30 feet 3 inch- es long and weighs 3212 pounds. Capt. Fenton would not say whether the snake, which is a magnificent speci- men of the Indian python, was for the Bronx Zoo, but a story that had been told months ago of the snake's coming said also that the big fellow was to in- crease thie collection there. Held Fast in Great Case. Under the fore peak, which had been turned over fdr the use as a menagerie, containing other animals, the snake is held fast in a great iron-bound vrooden case, with a small netted air space cut in the top of the case. First Officer Herr said the snake was in small quar- ters so that it could not possibly use its great strength to force the sides of the case apart. While there have been snakes in plen- ty under 20 feet in length landed here, Capt. Fenton carries the palm for the largest ever brought, and when the ship berths today to land her sugar cargo the snake will be delivered to the con- signees. One Cassowary on Board. Besides the big snake, there are 2% monkeys, a porcupine, a cassowary, a pair of Japanese silk-feathered fowls, three Japanese spaniels and numeroug small. birds. There were 55 monkeys when the Hudson left Singapore, May 21, but many of them died. A dozen mina birds also died.

Policeman Frank Lane, Central Dis- trict, was promoted, Friday, to ser- geant, to fill the vacancy created by the death of John Lang. Patrolman John Dillon, formerly at- tached to the office of Excise Commis- sioner, who ‘‘shot up” a Marcus avenue car and wounded a motorman while on a “jamboree,” was dismissed from the force for intoxication and unbecoming conduct. Dillon tendered his resigna- tion, which was hot accepted by the board. Patrolman Leo Brockhoff, Carr Street District, was dismissed for intoxication. Probationary Patrolman Dan Hogan, Carr Street District, was dropped from the rolls.for unbecoming conduct.

LOUIS’ A NY npaign Riding Opponent an Automobile ln Li Ml Ex-Congressman Burrell of Illinois Hopes to Be in Disfavor. —— CARMI, Il4 July 25.—One of the hot- test fights in “Egyptian” political af- fairs is being waged in the Twenty- fourth Congressional District. The con- testants are Congressman Pleasant T. Chapman of Vienna and Judge Orlando Burrell of Carmi. Both men are wealthy and both want to be the Republican nominee in the Twenty-fourth District. The odds today are reckoned even, but Burrell, according to reports received from the southern part of the district, is heavily the gainer in the week's fight. The commanding feature of the cam- paign is the unique method ex-Con- gressman Burrell is using in making his fight for the nomination. Riding an old white mule over the district and shak- ing hands with every man he meets, in striking con- trast to Chapman's. Years ago, in the old Twentieth District, Burrell ran for Congress against Congressman James Robert Williams, the Democratic nomi- nee. The district was heavily Demo- cratic and Burrell’s race was at first considered a joke. But when he went to battle astride a large white mule, the jocular side of the nomination disappeared. One by one the country districts lined up for the’ ‘‘white gmule” politician, as he was called, and when the votes were counted in November the majorities had turned. The fame of the white mule preceded Burrell to the White House, and the New York and Washington newspapers published the picture of the ‘‘Egyptian”’ politician and his white mule on the first page. This year the younger politicians de- clared that Chapman must be beaten in the primary if they ever wanted to get in the race with a show to win. One by one the possibilities were con- sidered, and finally it was agreed to run the old ‘‘white mule’’ politician. Burrell was waited on by a half hun- dred young voters from the different counties in the district, who told him they wanted him to beat Chapman so that they could then haye a chance to win. “The old mule is a little old to again go to battle,” replied Judge Burrell, “but if you are willing to risk his car- rying qualities, why, I will make the race.”’ ; The race early became a warm one, as both men are wealthy. Burrell sent out to the farm for the old mule and one day he rode down Main street on the beast. . Since that time he has been busy going over the district. Chapman, to counteract the effect of Burrell’s. unique method, ordered a costly auto- mobile and used it for a week. He lost so many votes the first week that he sent it back to St. Louis. Both men today are claiming victory. As a still further variation in their ra- cing” proclivities, Chapman is support- ing Deneen and_Burrell is advocating Yates for Governor. All Illinois is watching the fight and both men are playing cards to win the nomination. BUSTON CHURCH PLANS 10 CALL DR. W. C. BUTTING i. > A Friends, However, Say.

Three able-bodied members ‘of the combine were barely able to wake Delegate Herman Gevers from a pro- found, slumber into which he had fal- len during a period of extraordinary uproar in the House of Delegates. Gevers’ vote was needed by the com- bine Friday in an effort to pass a bill which Delegate Sam Stennard of the minority wanted killed. This measure authorized the construction of a side- walk in front of some property which Stannard owns on Penrose street. His request that the bill be filed was a sig- nal for the combine to rally to its sup- port. When Clerk Leonard called Gevers’ name he was in a deep sleep. Leonard's loud voice and the cries of other mem- bers didn’t disturb him a bit. The roll was called to the end and Clerk Leon- ard again tried to rouse Gevers. He was unsuccessful. ‘Delegates Troll, Warner and Bourg then ran to Gevers’ desk, shook him vigorously and finally compelled him to open tis eyes and his mouth ions énough to cast his vote for the bill.

Special Correspondence From London Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. LONDON, July 16.—J. Hall-Edwards, radiographer to the Birmingham Gen- eral Hospital, has sacrificed both of his hands in the cause of science. The pioneer experimentor with the radiograph is suffering from X-ray dermatitis and for six years he has had no sleep, except a few hours gained in- termittently through the use of nar- cotics. His case is considered by the medical fraternity as a wonderful ex- ample of undaunted courage and pa- tience. He is studying his own disease from a scientific standpoint, noting down every Symptom with the utmost care and at- tention to detail. He hopes to publish his observations shortly in the form of a book. Points Out Mistakes. The book will treat not only of the X-rays, but the disease they cause, and will contain an exhaustive treatise on possible cures. Mr. Hall-Edwards also points out the mistakes he made as a pioneer of the X-rays, and shows how details regarding inventions of his own they may be avoided. He also gives by the use of which X-ray operators will be immune from any danger. He shows the most amazing fortitude, and his only fear is that he may not live to finish his work. He has worked all through his years of agony, and is still in practice. He became afflicted with X-ray der- matitis several years ago and, sufferei intense agony in his left arm and hand until last February, when it was decid- ed to amputate his forearm in the hope that the progress of the disease might be checked. It was not then thought likely that he would lose his right hand, which seemed not to be seriously af- fected. Second Operation Performed. Unfortunately, this hope was not real- ized and it recently became necessary to operate again. The operation was per- formed by Dr. Gilbert Bartling, assist- ed by Drs. McCardie and Whitby, the surgeons who amputated the left fore- arm. This time, the right hand, with the exception of the thumb, was taken off. There has been considerable criticism of the Government’s failure to recognize Dr. Hall-Edwards’ service to science. The recent granting of a pension to him has been ridiculed throughout scientific circles of the Kingdom. Truth, in com- menting on the matter, says: “To find a hero officially recognized one must look outside the birthday honors to fhe humbler list of civil pen- sions. Here among a crowd of nonenti- ties, whose chief claim to recognition is that they are relatives of others more distinguished, one finds the name of Mr. Hall-Edwards of Birmingham, the devoted surgeon who has sacrificed his limbs in the cause of scientific research. He gets $600 a year as compensation, which is certainly better than a baron- etcy; but Prof. Ray Lankester gets more |: than double that amount. He has not, I think, sacrificed any portion of his anatomy as yet.’’ ~ Call Up the Post-Dispatch.

At the Republican ward meetings held in the Tenth, Twelfth and Twenty-first Wards Friday night, Loomis C. John- son, present Assistant Circuit Attorney and aspirant for the Republican nomi- nation to succeed Circult Attorney Sa- ger, made addresses in which he advo- cated the establishment by the State of a Board of Parole and Pardons. In essence, Mr. Johnson's idea was to establish a statebroad body which he believes might accomplish remedial helpfulness along the lines personally conducted in a local way by Justice Pollard. The convicted criminal, contended Mr. Johnson, is either “an inborn, inbred and inherent malefactor, or a victim of circumstances which he really ab- hors.” If the convicted criminal is repentant, the Johnson theory is that a body which can give to his case that consideration courts and prosecutors have not time for, he will be accorded something beyong justiee—mercy, and a chance. ——— a teeeeeseenteneeeneeD Bridge Plans Wanted Scon.

Six-year-old Harold Runyon, the ““‘wanderlust boy,’’ who has run away from home so often that the police lost count, now runs away to home. Mrs. Selby Runyon of 1921 Olive street, the mother, tried chaining the young- ster to a stake in the back yard and various other devices, none of which was successful, and finally, despairing of keeping him at home, sent him to Father Dunne’s Newsboys’ Home at Garrison and Washington avenues, to be watched and cared for. Not all the vigilance of the men at the home could keep Harold within the walls. Once or twice every week he es- caped and ran away. Harold now is with some other of Father Dunne’s charges at Eureka to spend two weeks in the country, but even there he man- ages to escape. Harold is too expert at running away to stay in one place long. ' But, whereas Harold formerly ran away from his mother, he now runs away to her. Since he has been sepas rated from her he has found that he thinks a lot more of her than he real- ized, and each time he has escaped from Father Dunne’s watchmen he has gone straight to his mother as fast as street cars and his short legs would carry him.

WIFES STORY ‘struggles with Sletten SAVES MAN WHO SLEW HIS RIVAL Jury Exonerates _ Bedridden Anvalid After Hearing Her Love Affair. HUSBAND SAW BEATING Unable-to Attend Inquest He Dictates His Version of Tragedy. CHICAGO, July 2%.—‘‘We, the jury, believe that said William T. Branitzky was acting in the protection of his wife and home at the time of the shooting, and exonerate him from all blame and recommend his release from further custody.”’ Thus concluded a coroner's jury yes- terday at the inquest over the body of Lucas Sletten, who was shot and killed by a bedridden, invalid husband in the latter’s home at 4007 Grand boulevard Thursday night. The jury completely vindicated the man whose young wife had been harrassed and beaten, his child whipped and his home almost wrecked by Sletten. Mrs. Branitzky, a little woman 23 years old, was the principal witness at the inquest. She related a story of how Sletten won her away from her hus- band, Sletten’s continued advances, and her subsequent hate and fear of the man. Then she told of the final scene—her in the dining room and before her husband's eyes in his’ bedroom, in which she was nearly choked to death, and the two shots which ended Sletten’s life. Mrs. Branitzky on cross-examination admitted that she ran out of the house and followed Sletten to where he had fallen on the pavement. She went with him in an automobile to a hospital, re- turning to her husband several hours laier. Branitzky at one time was a well-to- do architect. He is afflicted with tu- berculosis of the spine and is paralyzed from the waist down. For several months he has been in bed in a straight- jacket which weighs 28 pounds. Phy- sicians say he cannot live long. He dic- tated a statement explaining why he shot Sletten, and this was read to the jury. “CHILDREN NEGLECTED” & Money Spent on Mangy Ani- mals Wasted, Chicago : Jurist Thinks. Special to the Post-Dispatch. 1: an CHICAGO, July %.—“Care for the huey = gry, sick and maimed children of Chip cago’s poor first and there will be little z left to waste on cats and dogs,” was. Municipal Judge Gemmill's rebuke to Chicago society women today in the Harrison Street Court and his ultima- — tum to the officers of the Anti-cruelty Society. He ordered that 14 dogs and 10 cnt, beneficiaries of the charity of woment of wealth, be put to death. Sav ‘This may be laudable work, taking — care of ills of dogs a5" cats,” said Judge Gemmill, “but these ann ought to be taken out and killed. The money expended in cuying a lot of sick cats and mangy dogs might be better used in establishing a home for neg-. lected children who live in the crowded loop district.” ; Judge Gemmill suspended his sentence. one week in order to give an opportuni- ty for reforms in the society women’s institution. Later, however, five of the animals were chloroformed. : It all happened because residents and keepers of boarding houses and hotels — in the neighborhood of the Anti-cruelty — Society’s headquarters complained that the nocturnal howls of dogs and walls — of cats kept them awake. “Judge Gemmill either had been mis- — informed regarding our charity or else” ‘a lacks information,” said Mrs. Eva Cope>” land Schumann, chairman of the Come — mittee in charge of the refuge. “If he knew how much good we accomplished. he would not belittle our work.” ._ gowns The Anti-cruelty Society npmber® ~— among its members many prominent so- ‘s ciety wemen of Chicago who are the : patronesses of the “hvuspital.”’ “4 WARGED shop 4? ‘ .

HOW TO DEFEAT WALSH. Two difficulties certain to be encountered un ’ der the direct primary law were early foreseen. There might not be a full vote, and, with a multi- plicity of respectable candidates, it might easily be possible for a gang candidate, uniting all the _@lements having) questionable interests to serve, . to secure the nomination. The new system is to be tested in these _ re- spects at the very outset in the case of the Cir- cuit Attorney. In the person of Henry M. Walsh there is a conspicuously objectionable candidate. He has no qualifications for the office. His po- litical sponsors and associates are men whom the decent citizenship of St. Louis despises. His nomination would be a party shame; his election a public shame. There are several other candidates, 4ll of them so far as is known, men of good character. If they remain in the field and the vote is small, Walsh is likely to be nominated, for he has a compact, though a deluded, following. If the vote is large, there is still danger of Walsh’s suc- ~“eess, for the elements which oppose him will be divided. Direct.primaries lay an important responsibility upon the pe'ple. They call not only for public virtue and wisdom, but for public sagacity. The people themselves, entering upon the duty of po- litical management, must manifest the qualities of political managers. The 11 disposed must not scatter and dissipate MPoSeratea. If they do they are lost and the worst phases of the old caucus and convention system, without any of its redeeming qualities, will be re-established. Walsh can be defeated at the primaries on Aug. 4 if-the people who object to him and his back- ers will unite upon William C. Connett. hi hi hi ~*~ Fre

Literary critics and advisers are usually men of extensive reading, ripe experience and good judgment. As a rule authors do not submit their work to persons who Have a reputation fo: inac- curacy, exaggeration and extravagance. If criti- cism is to have value it must proceed from knowl- edge and not from error. When it is considered that as’a writer and a speaker Mr. Roosevelt has shown an extraordi- nary tendency to blunder, the fact that Mr. Taft carries his big manuscript to him for revision cannot fail to produce a disagreeable impression. There is nothing in the President’s achieve- ments ag author and orator which would justify his best friend in going to him for counsel either as to the style or the subject matter of any ut- terance. Furthermore, the people like to feel that there is nothing dynastic about the presidency; that each President is chief magistrate in his own right and title and that for good or for ill he car- ries his sovereignty under his hat. The harshest judgment that will be passed upon Mr. Roosevelt will be that which properly char- acterizes the tone and temper of his public ut- terances. Incalculable mischief has been caused by his violent and menacing style. Distinguished as he is in many ways, his judgmerit as a critic of speech, letter or other political composition cannot fail to be bad. If Mr. Taft is qualified for the presidential of- fice he should not sit at the feet of any man, now or hereafter.

Ln in THE MAKING OF A GENTLEMAN. In the good old times the favorite form of hazing at West Point was to make the plebe eat 65 prunes in 65 minutes. Upper class men explained that hazing is nec- essary for the plebe to “take the starch out of him” and “make him a gentleman.” It follows, then, that a gentleman is a man who is full of prunes. The modern form of hazing is more humane, but it is not plain how it will make the plebe a gentleman by compelling him to pick up a hun- dred ants and put them in his locker. For the entertainment and instruction of un- trained civilians, West Point seniors should dem- onstrate the logical connection between gentility and 100 ants in a etalict “ase — — ,

| EE IS MR. COWHERD UNDER OBLIGATIONS? Both Cowherd and Ball, Democratic candidates for Governor, have supporters in St. Louis and elsewhere who are’ no credit to them, for the Old Gang and the Indian element. are not united in support of either. On the other hand,-men who are found in the train of both—a fact which may be taken for what it is worth. While a candidate for office cannot be indorsed or condemned solely on account of the social and political standing of those who expect to vote for him, it becomes a matter of legitimate in- qguiry if his candidacy appears to have been in- spired by men who cannot hope to be elected to office themselves. The Hawes support of Mr. Cowherd may be something that the candidate could not avoid. It may be something that was prearranged and that will bear fruit hereafter. Mr. Hawes is a_ re- sourceful politician. He exerts considerable in- fluence. He is ambitious. He ig not overbur- dened with seruples. He is not exactly the sort of man that the people of St. Louis would like to have in control of their police organization and the local election machinery. He has a rec- ord in that respect and it is still fresh in the pub- lic mind. If Mr. Cowherd’s election as Governor is to mean Mr. Hawes’ rehabilitation as a politi- cal boss in this city there will be decided opposi- tion to Mr. Cowherd’s candidacy. In point of character, experience and ability Mr. Cowherd is believed to be well qualified for the governorship. The only question that arises as to him concerns his relations to Mr. Hawes. Is his partyism so strong and his desire for of- fice so great that he cannot take the people of St. Louis into his confidence in this respect? Are there any obligations? In the event of Mr. Cowherd’s election, is St. Louis to deal with the Governor of Missouri through Harry B, Hawes? Vice-President Fairbanks’ remarks at Quebec on the prospects of maintaining peace forever be-

in good taste, but if he is to prove a good prophet there will have to be an end to these Olympics. The quarrels at the London contests between Americans and Englishmen show that we come from a race that rather enjoys a fight. LL. &. _ i i a SETTING A CONSTITUILION TO MUSIC. Col. Sidney Suggs, who edits the Daily. Ard- morcite of Ardmore, Ok., has given birth to a wonderful idea. Briefly stated, it is that the poets_and musi-| clans of the State write and compose a State song, the words to be selected from the vocabu- lary of the Oklahoma Constitution and the air to be something fresh and original, as befits music springing direct from the Oklahoma heart. There is a beautiful poem in the Oklahoma Constitution. It needed only the genius of Col. Sidney Suggs to discover it and the patient in- dustry of the Oklahoma poets can disengage it from its legal frame. But Col. Sidney Suggs, himself, does not quite appreciate his own idea. Not only is there a song in the Constitution which can be picked out of it by any diligent poet, the Constitution is itself a poem, a song. The people of Okla- homa make up a vast ethico-legal orchestra and with the Constitution as the score Oklahoma life will be one palpitating, throbbing ecstasy. On every holiday the Constitution can be performed by the whole people in orchestra assembled. What has poor old New York to say to that?

Le Le al — ww any of Mr. Bryan’s esteemed contemporaries will regret that he considers it necessary to re- tire temporarily from the editorship of the Com- moner. He will not be greatly missed, however, for the Commoner has been made up principally of Mr. Bryzn’s speeches, and no doubt it will con- tinue to be.

= = = -~S A QUESTION OF PERSONS. Smith, Jones and Robinson organize themselves into a corporation and get a Missouri! charter under the name Kerosene Co. of Missouri. Smith, Jones and Robinson organize them- selves into a corporation and get an Illinoisy charter under the name Kerosene Co. of IIli- nois. The Kerosene Co. is indicted and the offense is proved. But it does not appear whether it was committed by the Missouri or the Illinois corporation. And since every person is presumed to be innocent until proved guilty it follows log- ically and legally that neither of these persons is guilty of the offense charged and proved. “*Argal,” says the grave digger, “if you want to commit a crime get yourself incorporated in two states and let the courts find out which of you it is.” Eut the courts, not being metaphysicians, cannot do this. And Smith, Jones and Robinson laugh with glee, saying in the words of William M. Tweed, “What are they going to do about it?’ By and by, it may be, this precious trio of emi- nent citizens will learn a little more about the Tweed case and then they will know what “they” did about it.

We note once more with genuine sympathy the sad case of a poor woman whose savings of years she kept in a stocking hid away in an old trunk. The rest may be guessed. Somebody stole all she had. We could have told her they would do that. We can predict with certainty that from time to time some other poor women will. be robbed of their savings stored away in their stockings. Human nature is about the same one year with another, and the human nature in this recurring story gives it a dry and diverting flavor despite its sadness. Age tempers it like old wine. That other good story—of the husbandman who puys the gold brick—is about due. There has ‘not ‘been a literal gold. brick bought hereabouts for some time, yet this is the open season for them.

e4 ibktenby wise it would cease altogether to be curious or interesting. Incidentally we may note that it is about time for some more trouble in the Balkans. In gen- eral, let us observe that while there is not much new under the sun, some of the old things under the sun are all the better for age. i i The President seems to be in contempt of court once more.

_=_ —-~— SS SINGING BY THE GLEE CLUB. Prof. Jeptha D.- Howe’s glee club is not a threat —it is a reality. He has got together a grand aggregation of serenaders, representing the 28 wards and 28 breweries of the city of St. Louis, and he proposes to have them ring for Judge Taft in Cincinnati. If somebody does not turn in a riot call or genera] alarm, the Judge will be entertained with some rare music. There are more different varieties of discord in the singing of the Republican pie chorus in Missouri than were ever heard in the Cincinnati Conservatory. = = = i i According to Charles M. Schwab, we are going to have unprecedented prosperity in the near fu- ture, and nobody need thank Lloyds. i eo i -~wT F Now let us pray that the Public Service Com- mission will mean something more than $12,500 a year.

7. = = ™ — a GOVERNMENT BY DENUNCIATION. From the New York World, today. The Constitution of the United States commands the President to ‘‘take care that the laws are faith- fully executed.” In directing the Attorney-General] to consult with Frank B. Kellogg and take immediate steps for the retrial of the Standard Oil case, Mr. Roosevelt is only performing his constitutional duty and fulfilling his oath of office. Mr. Roosevelt declares in an official statement that “there is absolutely no question of the guilt of the defendants.”’ This is not for him to say. It is not for any chief executive to say. He is not the trial court. He is not the Judge. He is not the jury. He has no more right to adjudge the Standard Oil Co. inn

guilty, whatever his personal opinions may be. He is speaking, not as Theodore Roosevelt, but as Pres- ident of the United States. Mr.. Roosevelt’s statement is an undignified, of- fensive, partisan, political document issued as an ap- peal to the anti-corporation voters of the states West of the Mississippi, where the Republican ticket is weak. It is intended not to further the ends of jus- tice, but to influence votes. Its purpose is not to assist in punishing the Standard Oll Co., but to con- vince the West that in spite of a reactionary plat- form that surrendered-on the income tax, the gradu- ated inheritance tax and campaign fund publicity, the administration is still a terror to Wall street and malefactors of great wealth. The World heartily approved the sentence imposed by Judge Landis on the Standard: Oil Co. It was time to make an example of a great offender, and an ordinary fine is of no value whatever in dealing with such a rich and powerful corporation. The World regrets that the Court of Appeals found it necessary to reverse Judge Landis, but justice is not to be accomplished by presidential tirades against judges who decide contrary to his wishes. It must come about by due process of law. If the case against the Standard Oil Co, is Onally won and sus- tained the decisive victory will be due far more to the efforts of that quiet but‘ excellent lawyer, Frank Kellogg, than to all President Roosevelt's manifesta- tions of government by denunciation. {! LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE. Liberty Leaguer Withdraws. To the Zditor of the Post-Dispatch. Chas. Hanauer proposed my name as a member and director of the Personal Liberty League before receiving my consent. I agreed to leave my name stand, being a strict believer in persona] liberty, thinking that no man has the right to tell his neigh- bor what ‘he shall eat or drink. I was made to understand the organization would work atong these lines and rot in a political way indorsing individual candidates as Mr. Cowherd, when there are others in the field in favor of personal liberty, as Ball and Stapel, this looks much like infringing on the personal rights of the membership of the league. I wish to inform my friends that I have sent in my resignation as director and member of the Per- sonal Liberty League. I do not want my friends to be influenced by my connection with this or- ganization of schemers, but vote for whomsoever they please. I will do the same. JAMES J. O'TOOLE.

Reverence and Beer. fo the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I wish to reply to a letter from a German lady which appeared a short time ago. She said that if one “reverently’’ drank a glass of beer and while drinking remembered the Creator of hops, grapes, corn, ete., from which various drinks are made and in so doing thanked Him for them we would be do- ing no wrong. It is to this which I desire to reply. It must be admitted that these products of the earth were created for use. But it is surely certain that the Almighty never created them for men to use in poisoning themselves. God created the poppy, but he never intended that man should become a slave to opium any more.than he intended a man should become a slave to beer when he created hops. It js true beyond doubt that beer contains alcohol. A noted doctor says: “It contains from 1 to 10 per cent of alcohol and much flavoring which is often added is not only injurious but actually poisonous.” Then as to “reverentily” drinking beer. If the lady will show me one (aside from herself) who really “says grace’’ over a glass of beer I will show her 999 who do not. And as to thanking the Creator for the hops, ete., let us bear in mind what his own holy book teaches us: “Look not upon the wine when it moveth itself aright. At last it biteth like a serpent and stingeth like an adder.” And yet again already, “Wine is a mocker, strong drink 1s raging gwd whosoever is deceived thereby igs not wise.” TOTAL ABSTINENCE. St, Louis a Clean City. 50 the Editor of the Post-Dispatcn. I have just returned to St, Louis, having been on my vacation for three weeks, during which time I visited relatives in Chicago, Detroit and Philadelphia. I have never been away from 8t. Louis for any length of time before, and as I have lived in St. Louis all my life (which is # years), I was anxious to see how other large cities were governed, knowing how cor- rupt our own city Was af one time, and as many of Gov. Folk’s admirers Say this is the cieanest town in the country today, | decided to investigate and spend my vacation in that manner, The Police De- partment of St. Louis Is on the square and renders a public service to the people. In Chicago the con- dition is just the Opposite. Policemen take bribes without any concealment whatever, They make the rounds of the immoral resorts eyery day and collect money for protection. If an immoral resort cagnot pay the price of protection, it igs raided promptly and must quit. They say in Chicago that one Chief of Police accumulated $180,000 in 10 years. Detroit ig almost ag bad as Chicago, but Philadel- phia is the limit. The latest scandal in PhiJadelphia came to light when the police were found to be in a conspiracy with @ 6ang of robbers, who invaded private houses and divided the spoils with the po- lice. But Philadelphia is rotten from one end to the other. I + ¢ heartily agree with people who say St. : clean city when I compare jt with the

SOCRATES ON A SQUARE DEAE FOR FAIRBANES. (Scene: Sagamore Hill. Characters: Socrates and Rooseveltius.) OCRATES: Have you ever thought, Rooseveltius, that in addition to S all the excellent, courageous and foolhardy things you have done, you might also do something graceful? ROOSEVELTIUS: It has not occurred te me, Socrates; but if you are going to ask me to transfer Col. Stewart to the Yellowstone Park, you can sit out here and argue till the seacows come home, SOCRATES: I know that, Rooseveltius; but do you know that you ought not to wait until next spring to go lion hunting? ROOSEVELTIUS: You will have to show me that, Socrates. | SOCRATES: I shall be glad to do so. It is true, is it not, that Mr. Fairbanks would become President in the event you resigned? ROOSEVELTIUS: He would. SOCRATES: Amd is it not also true that he might have been nominated and elected President but for your interference in behalf of Taftius? ROOSEVELTIUS: He might. SOCRATES: Very well. Now, Rooseveltius, Mr. Fairbanks is an ex- cellent man. His rewards are far short of his deserts. He is a fine type of American. He has contributed whatever dignity your administration has possessed, and he has served the Republic in a thankless capacity without a murmur. ROOSEVELTIUS: He has, indeed. national goat. ROOSEVELTIUS: SOCRATES: deal? ROOSEVELTIUS: I don’t mind saying so. SOCRATES: And the way things are going, posterity will scarcely hear of him. ROOSEVELTIUS: Scarcely. SOCRATES: It is considerate of you, to say so, Rooseveltius. Now, you | have been President almost seven years. You have threshed out of it about. all there is in it. You have exercised the presidential prerogative a little harder than anyone before you. You have seen that everybody got about what was coming to him. You have made the necessary alterations in the cosmic scheme, enjoyed the refusal of a third term, and tasted power and Alas, yes. Then you feel that Mr. Fairbanks has not had a square popularity to satiety. ROOSEVELTIUS: True. SOCRATES: And it will not be any truer next March? ROOSEVELTIUS: I suppose not. SOCRATES: And the hunting in Africa will be just as exciting next win- ter as it will the following summer. ROOSEVELTIUS: Every bit. SOCRATES: Good! Then why wouldn’t it be a graceful thing for you to resign this fall, go off on your lion hunt, and let Mr. Fairbanks be /President until March? ROOSEVELTIUS: By Jove, it would! SOCRATES: I knew you would say so. Now, let us go down to the

I do not think he would give me the chance! I was spoiled and petted by him until I grew to be a “Jealous nagger.’”” I wanted to dictate to him about everything he bought for nie, and tf he tried ever so hard to sur- prise me with the loveliest of presents I usually thanked him by sayirg “Why did you buy this? I wish you had found out what I wanted.” He was too patient with me and answered not a word. If he or some true friend had obly given me an insight into the misery I was causing by my childish, foolish actions, I could have made a change. Most women can, if they will. We can be very smooth and pleasant with ouc friends, but at home we put our dear selves on a pedestal and ex- pect everything to be as would please us, never thinking we don't know what would please us.

By popularity possibly I don’t mean what you mean. The popular girl at a summer resort generally means the girl who gets all the men, who can cut another girl out without half trying, the girl who is pretty in the most conspicuous way whose clothes attract more attenion than other girls, and who walks off with everything eligible, from the best horse, the most secluded hammock and the smartest boat to the best looking vo the High School course.

There are not only cooling things to do in hot weather, but there are cool- ing thoughts to think. You can be the coolest thing on the hotel porch on the hottest day—if you only know how.

MARTIN LUTHER AND CATHERINE VON BO The Nun Whe Profosed to a Monk, Retold for the PotD 5 patch BY ALBERT PAYSEN TERHUNE. a HE most-talked-of man in Europe in 135 fell in love with a nun. He himself was a former monk. The man was. Martin Luther, the fam- ous reformer, who had declared his in- dependence of the churchly customs of the day, and who not only placed the Bible into the hands of the plain people, but was the founder of the Protestant creed In Germany. Luther, after casting loose from the established church, continued to preach his doctrines (often at risk of his life) and to gain new converts by the thou- sands. Among these converts was a pretty nun named Catherine von Bora, who, Whilé very young, had entered a convent near Grimma, Germany. News of Luther’s teachings reached her and she Was soon won over to his way of thinking in regard to religious matters. She went so far as to convince elght other nuns that Luther’s opinions were right. Then the nine women decided to give up convent life. But to make such a decision and to act upon it were two quite different things, In her perplexity Catherine wrote to Luther for aid, Luther Was touched by her appeal. Through the help of a friend he man- aged to get Catherine and her eight triends out of the convent one night in 162k. The escape of the nine nuns caused a great sensation. Now that they were freed from the convent, Luther did: not quite know how to dis- pose of them. He prevailed upon the relatives of some to take them into their homes, and he advised others to marry. But Catherine was not so easily settled in life. She was pretty and only 21 years old. She was also what would now be called a ‘“‘new woman.” She did not relish the idea of being married out of hand to any maf her relatives might chance. to select for her. More- over, she had secretly fallen in love with Luther himself. Wise as the re- former was, he had not the wit to see Bo he proposed to her that she marry one of his friends. She refused in disgust. He suggested another friend, then another. Still she refused, At length in despair he asked her to name some man she was willing to marry. She calmly named the aston- ished Luther himself. Luther, though surprised, liked the idea. He had cast off the monk's cowl and felt he was no longer bound by his former vows of celibacy. He had writ- ten treatises advising former priests to marry. Why not set the example? So he accepted Catherine’s suggestion, and on June 11, 15%, he and the ex-nun were wedded. She was 2%, he was 42. | Luther had the wedding ring made in the form of a crucifix. money at all. The husband's pay &s & proféssor kept them pPoe gre they were never well-to-do.

McAleer and His - = | Bra ves Tough Eastern Trip Still in Spirit To Win. eel Back : From

While the trip was not as eat a success as was expected, still Map- ager McAleer is satisfied with the re- sult. The team won a matority of its games while on the road and any time a team does that ‘t has championship stuff in it. It wasn’t that the Browns uia poor work on this trip that has dis- appointed the fans. It’s because the Detroit Tigers stampeded through the East, doing so much better than the Browns, that they look like a much bet- ter team. Detroit had a wonderful trip. Every- thing came its way. The Browns played in some terrible luck. They didn’t play bad baseball, except on one or two instances. Their pitchers didn’t blow up. Tnere was nothing wrong with the team. It ran a £ race, but it ceuldn’t keep ahead of the Tigers. MeAleer Not Downhearted, “TIT don’t think we have anything to feel bad about,” said Manager Mc- Aleer this morning as the train was pulling inte St. Louls. “Detroit has been going at a lively clip,” but we beat them when we played against them. We have -tuck up with the leaders and at the same time suf- fered some of the worst breaks In the game that I have ever seen. Our play- ers are all in —— shape. I think my pitchers will finish the season stronger than ever. We should win a lot of games during the next two weeks while we are on our own grounds. “The Browns haven't had any real slump this season. We lost four straight games while in the East and that was our worst slump of the. year. I don’t look for any slump now and will be much surprised if we don’t do better for the remainder of the year than we have so far.”’ The Browns are gt home now for 16 games. Each one of the, Eastern clubs will visit Sportsman’s Park for a series of four games. Washington is first, then the Athletics, New York and Boston in the order named. As soon as those 16 games are over the Browns will dash back East for the final round-up there. Browns Out for Revenge. Washington, which begins its series against the Browns today, defeated the St. Louls team, three out of the five games played in the Hast on the last trip. It was in the Capitol City that the troubles of the Browns started and they are out for revenge on the sassy tribe led by Joe Cantillon. It is quite likely that Al Schweltzer, the active young outfielder who has been out of the game for three weeks or more, will be able to get back at once. He was left at home while the team was East, and if he has recovered from his injury, McAleer will put him in center fleld today, for he was hitting the ball better even than Stone when he was hurt. Wallace has a sore pair of hands and may rest for a day or two, Hartzell going to shortstop. Left-handed pitchers will be worked against the Senators once more, though they were beaten while the Browns were East. Rube Waddell was off color the day he went against the Senators. He was pounded out of the box, while if he had been in form, a team of left-handed hitters like Washington would be lucky By JAMES CRUSINBERRY After speriding two nights and one day on the train, the St. Leuis Browns arrived at the Union Station promptly on time at 7:30 this morning and this afternoon will begin a series against the Washington club with Rube W. doing the pitching.

OLD FASHIONED BULL CAMPAIGN UN WALL STREET i ro ae All the Prominent Stocks Are Advanced From One to Five Points.

NEW YORK, July 2. The Evening Post, in its financial re- view, says: “Prices advanced further today, after the early movement of the stock mar- ket had given rise to some disagreeable forebodings to what the day would bring forth. 5 Aes market was very weak fer a portion of the first hour on a re- currence of yesterday's selling. These declines depressed the list from % to 1% point in the case of most of the active shares. There was a recovery, with re- newed up-bidding and sharp gains in such issues as Amalgamated Copper, Union Pacific, St. Paul and Smelting, Reading and the Steel shares. This gave strength to the whole market, and led to a renewal of rather spectacular buying. In the last half .hour the movement became very active, with a similar demonstration to that witnessed toward the close last Saturday. “The European markets were firm, except in the unsettlement at London caused by the United States selling of consols. The market here closed strong and very active at best prices of the day. The approaching turn in the curerncy movement against New York is evi- denced by this week's sharp decline in interior exchange at Chicago and the heavy falling off in the volume of di- rect shipments by interior banks, give point to the probable course of money rates this fall. The indisposition of the important lending institutions to make lurge investments in “over the year” loans at even a fractional advance from the rates quoted this week, did not sig- nify that the lenders regard the out- look with apprehension. “Not for 14 years have the New York banks been as well prepared to meet the drain as they are today, notwith- standing the outflow of $50,000,000 gold to Europe and repayment to the Treas- ury since the year opened of $65,000,- OW public deposits. It is natural, how- ever, that the great banks of the East should limit their investments in term loons until the probable demands of the harvest centers could be correctly fore- custed. With the crop outlook as fa- vorable as it is, there is every reason to suppose that at least the normal ship- ments of hand to hand money will be made. “So long as the banks are not called upon to finance another movement of over-trading in the stock market, the West can be supplied with all the money required for crop-moving purposes. “The stock market was naturally helped by the decision in the Standard Oil case, and the clear statement of the reasons for setting aside the famous $29,000,000 fine. The news was greeted by a quick advance in prices. as “On the news that President Roose- velt had instructed the Department of Justice at cnce to proceed for another trial of the case ‘In order to prevent & possible miscarriage of justice,’ Wall street jumped to the conclusion that a retrial of the case might develop sen- sational complications with further un- settlement. “The future of the market depends on the ability of the speculators to at- tract genuine outside buying. The de- cided strength of the bond market with the enormous increase of trading, re- flects an investment inquiry of né mean proportions, been restricted to the highest grade of issues.”’ Political considerations ruled Satur- day's stock market. Roosevelt and Standard Oil have apparently played their part, and brokers have now turned their attention to the probable comple- tion of Taft's speech of acceptance, which will be delivered Tuesday next. Thig was the predominating Influence at Saturday's session. For a |ittle while the Exchange was bearish, but at the end of the first half hour a’ bull sentiment was developed which was turned into a vigorous boom before the cloge. This was largely in response to ru- mors which were circulated on the “gtreet"’ that Taft's speech of accept- ance would be less radical than antici- pated, and that it could only be con- etrued as a bull factor. The bait was greedily seized, and a brisk movement in the direction of higher prices culminated in one of the strongest markets of the year. The Atrength was uniform. Not only did all “the prominent issues score large ad- vances, but stocks that have been wa- vering during the week were carried aiong with the wave of optimism which is now at its crest on Wall street. “The market closed strong and active. Short lines were covered extensively, and this helped largely to send prices to higher levels. The statement of banks and trust companies of Greater New York not members of the clearing house shows that these institutions have aggregate Geposite of $999,271,900; total cash on hand $98,222,000 and loans amounting to $803,831, 600. _------~»- = St, Loulsa Stock Exchange.

Kavanagh, Fiance of Miss Herminie Templeton, Is Old Bachelor. CHICAGO, July 2%.—After withstand- ing the wiles of the fair sex for—well, Chicago's bachelor jurist, Judge Marcus A. Kava- nagh has yielded to the inevitable and next month will be wedded to Miss Her- mine Templeton, writer of Irish fairy tales and an authoress of note. Except to admit that he and Miss Templeton are soon to be married, the Judge declined to discugs his plans. “Yes, yes, we are to be married,”’ he said, as he stepped from the bench in his court, where he had been holding a night session, “but feally, now, I would not like to havé our arrange- ments made public at this time.”’ Notwithstanding Judge Kavanagh's reticence, the same ‘Mrs. Grundy” had gleaned some further information, to the general effect that the tentative plans are for a wedding in the church where years ago the Judge’s mother and fa- ther were married. Immediately after the ceremony the two will go to Europe. Judge Kavanagh and Miss Templeton met several years ago. The jurist, him- self inclined to literature and having contributed a number of articles on the bench and bar to Eastern publications, found B an the young authoress a con- genial “companion. Frequently in the past two years there have been rumors that Judge Kavanagh seriously contemplated joining the ranks of the bendicts, but when approached on the subject he merely would shake his head and smile. And so his friends until now had almost resigned them- selves to the belief that he would pass his days in bachelerhood.

NORE SEEKING. PORTIA BELIEVES IN HELPING SELt She Will Not Hire Man Law- «yer Unless Husband Fights Her Suit.

RUNS FURNITURE STORE

Mrs. Aimee Buckley Is Own Attorney in Cases in Justice Courts.

Mrs. Aimee Buckley, South St. Louis Portia, who is her own lawyer in her divorce case against Harry Buckley, is not sure that she will carry the tase through to its conclusion without the aid of a man lawyer. It depends on her husband’s next move. If he hires ® lawyer and makes a fight, she may get an attorney to help her, too. Lawyers have their uses, she says. She did not file her own petition be- Catise of any prejudice against the pro- fession. She is not a lawyer herself, but she has read some lawbooks and Nem a good deal of experience in one way and another in the justice courts, and she thinks she is entirely capable of attending te a good many little things for which most persons hire law- yers, Is a Real Estate Agent. One of these is handling a divorce case, always assuming that the defend- ant does not make too much of a fight. Mrs. Buckley is not an advocate of women’s rights, in spite of the fact that she carries on a furniture business, acts @s a real estate agent, looks after con- siderable property that she owns and is her Own lawyer in minor legal mat- ters. “I don’t do these things from prefer- ence,’ she said to a Post-Dispatch re- porter, “‘but because I have to. I have had to look out for myself ever since we were married. I would a good deal rather have taken care of a home, if he had given me one to take care of. The home is the best place for a woman to exercise her talents. “A weman who is in business for her- seif has to know something about law. I have read such law books as I could get hold ef and have had a good deal of experience in litigation. I think I will be able to get through with my divorce case by myself, but if it gets ‘too complicated I will call in a lawyer.” Mrs. Buckley is 32 years old. She was married when she was 17. She says she has no idea of getting married again soon, as she wants to enjoy single life for a time. She has been separated from her hus- band about seven years, but during that time he has kept her reminded, she says, that he is still her husband, by coming often to her home and place of business and by following her on the street. Familiar Court Figure. She has blend hair and gray eyes and her conversation indicates self-re- Nance. Her sentences are short and crisp. She seems to be able to take care of herself not only in a lawsuit but fn almost any kind of an emergency. In fact, in many a skirmish with recalcitrant tenants, it is said she has demonstrated this, both in court and out of it. She is a familiar figure in the court of Justice Spies, where she of- ten has sued tenants for rent and for possession, always acting as her own attorney. Buckley has not decided what he will do about the divorce suit, but if he contests it he says he will hire a law- yer, as 16 years experience with Mrs. Buckley hag shown him that she is his match in any kind of a contreversy, yrup yrup figs #Diixix of Senna ect- vl beer vestitsc ped Child. tite ial Efocte : zien me Reece: _ tic, Srmup Co. sae Ng OfuceisTs Your Vacation Will Not Be Complete Without It.

EXT Tuesday night’s production of N “As You Like It’’ by Constance Crawley and her associate players for the benefit of the Post-Dispatch Pure Milk and Free Ice Fund will be rich in scenic beauty as well as dramat- ic achievement. It will differ from the two preceding productions, those of “Romeo and Juli- et” and ‘Pelleas and Melisande,’’ in that the performance will take place in the picturesque little grove of trees at the eastern extremity of the Bixby gar- den, Lindell boulevard and King’s high- way, the audience being seated in the spacious auditorium formed by the lawn

that stretches away to the westward from this lovely spot. The scene lends itself admirably to the requirements of Shakspeare’s delightful forest comedy. The accompanying illustration, repro- duced from a photograph taken during this week's rehearsals of ‘‘As You Like It’’ by Miss Crawley and her company, indicates how perfect will be the play’s natural scenic setting. It shows a typl- cal grouping in the forest of Arden, with Jacques (Mr. Arthur Maude) and Crlando (Mr. Corwin Luskmoor) in the foreground, while Rosalind (Miss Craw- ley) and Celia (Miss Florence Leslie) “As You Like It” | in Miniature Arden Forest

steal mischievous glances at them from the shrubbery in the background. In the opinion of many eminent En- glish and American critics the Rosalind of Miss Crawley’s playing is the best portrayal of this part now te be seen on the English-speaking stage, and her support in the forthcoming production will be of excellent quality. ‘“‘As You Like It’’ is the only comedy offering of the Open-Air Dramatic Festival series, and, being recognized as the ideal play for the out-of-doors production, it is expected to attract perhaps the largest audience yet assembled to witness the Crawley performances.

CUMBINE SAID 0) HAVE WON WEEKE AGAIN , a a

Delegates Reporte! in Favor of Colleague’s B:ucher for Utilities Body. eau.

The time between now and next Fri- day wil] be devoted by members of the minority in the House of Delegates to an attempt to learn what mysterious mission took Delegate Frank Weeke, on whom they had counted Friday evening, to St. Louis County. Weeke'’s absence prevented the exe- cution of the minority’s plan to remove Delegate Isaac Conran from the Speak- ership of the House. To this movement Weeke had pledged his hearty support. He was disgusted with the combine, Weeke told its opponents, and intended to mend his ways. Reorganization was just what he wanted, and he woulin’t sleep well until it was accomplished. Early Friday afternoon, members of the combine knew that Weeke had an engagement in St. Louis County. Ac- ccrdingly, they made no attempt to move the hands of the clock forward, absent themselves, or play any other trick on the “‘minority.”’ They knew that, without Weeke, the reorganizers would have but 13 votes on any proposition—the same number that the combine could muster. It would re- quire a majority of at least one to re- move Speaker Conran. It is belleved that Weeke hag been won baok to the combine and that his brother, Henry Weeke, has been molli- fled by the combine with a promise of consideration when the appointment of public service commissioners comes be- fore the House. It was the combine’s refusal to name Henry Weeke, it is said, that caused him to withdraw Frank frem the majority. BUSINESS WOTICES.

Although Walter Feuerbacher of 1138 Sidney street was thrown 10 feet when his automobile ran onto the sidewalk at Shenandoah and Iowa av- enues and overturned, and his two friends, William Hepner of 2625 South Twelfth street, and Oliver Nouss of 2612 South Twelfth street, were caught under the machine, no one was injured. Striking an obstruction in the street, the machine ran onto the curb- ing and turned turtle. Feuerbacher, who was driving, was thrown out and against a fence. He was not hurt and with the assistance of persons in the neighborhood, extricated his friends from beneath the machine. Weuld You Appear Prosperous?

HOUSE MINORITY PREVENTS ADJOURNMENT OF ASSEMBLY Adjournment of the Municipal Assem- bly has been prevented by the minority of the House of Delegates. A resolution looking to a vacation from July 31 until Sept. 29 failed of concurrence . Friday after having been adopted by the Coun- cil. The combine wanted to adjourn, but lacked the votes to adopt the resolution, which required 15 ayes. Members of the minority declared that they would not permit adjournment until important measures like the natural gas bill, the bridge bill and the Fair Grounds bill

had been passed.

Mr. Hearst replied: “I cannot. I have given my word that under no circumstances will I be a candidate. I have given my word, and I will abide by it.’’

CHICAGO, July 2%.—Mrs. May Jergen- sen, a widow living at 42 North Cali- fornia avenue, in a desperate battle with a burglar at dawn today, shot her own 3 years old. The baby was wounded in the back and will probably die. The robber entered the house by a rear window and was looting the place when he awakened the sleeping woman. She drew a revolver from under her pillow and fired after the man attempted to choke her. The robber escaped with money and jewelry. The dying child was taken to a hospital.

START FIRE AND CHILD PERISHED CHICAGO, July %.—Peter Ross, years old, is dead today and Mrs. Maria Ross is in a hospital seriously burned as the result of her carelessness in leaving lighted candles on a smal! altar in her bedroom after she had finished praying. A year ago Mrs. Ross was arrested, charged with the murder of her girl- hood friend, Mrs. Salvator Mato. It was charged she was infatuated with Mato. She was acquitted last, October and on returning home had a small altar built, where she was in the habit of performing daily devotions. On leaving the room yesterday even- ing she failed to extinguish the candles and a gust of wind blew lace curtains across the flame. Her 3-year-old child was asleep in the room and was suffo- cated before the firemen arrived. Mrs. Ross rushed into the burning house in an effort to save the baby, bat her clothing caught fire and she ways driven back to the street.
