Kings, Queens and Princes in International Matrimonial Alliance.

Special Cable to New York Ameri- can. N reputation for tact has been much impaired during th® past few weeks, has added to the entanglements of the Abruzzi- Elkins match. The influence of the English court is being used against this democratic marriage. The reason is that it will stand in the way of the projected betrothal of the Count of Turin and the Princess Patricia of Connaught. Prince Victor Emanuel, Count. of Turin, is the elder brother of the Duke of the Abruzzi. The Princess Patricia is the daughter of the Duke of Connaught, and therefore niece of King Edward. .The mar- riage of the Duke to Miss Elkins and the union of the-Count of Tu- rin and the Princess Patricia would therefore make Miss Elkins a sister-in-law of: King Edward's niece, a relationship which does not seem to appeal to the British monarch. The English court does not care to acquire West Virginian relatives in this roundabout way, and it is believed that the Turin-Connaught match is definitely off since the Abruzzi is determined to take an American bride into the royal Ital- fan family. - PARIS, Oct. 20. OW King Edward, whose _—_-_—_-_--oo LONDON, Oct. 20: ROME —— to the Daily Aa reads: Aosta, stepmother of the Duke of the Abruzzi, has officially informed the Mayor ef Asti of his approach- ing marriage. “Miss Elkins’ Duke will leaye for America the middle of November. _On his return with his bridge, great celebrations will be held in Rome and Turin. Cardinal Gibbons will supervise the conversion of Miss Elkins to Roman Catholicism,”’

‘King to Make Announcement. (Special Cable to the New York Sun.) ROME, Ctct. 20. fHE King will announce the en- _ Bagement of the Duke of Abruzzi and Miss Catherine (Elkins by means of a letter to Prime Minister Goilitti, who will ‘eanimiinicate the news to the press. ‘Thé diidiouncement will not be made péfere’ the arrival of the Duke in ‘AtieM¢a, which will probab'y be some time next month. A squadron of three Italian bat- tleshigs, will sail from Spezzia for the United States about Nov. 16 and from this circumstance it is deducgt that the marriage will take place in wecember. Court Jeweler Muzy of Turin, it it stated, has received orders from several members of the royal fam- ily for wedding presents, which, ac ng to custom, will be car- ried America by the Duke. The Duke is still in Turin. He ap- pears to be very cheerful, but he shuns publicity.

Kiag Withholds Consent. (BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.) (Special Cable to the New York '. Times.) ROME, Oct. 20. AM informed on very good au- | authority that the inexplicable silence of the Duke of the Abruzzi in the face of the protests of the whole Italian nation arises from the fact that, contrary to what has been asserted, the King withholds that consént to the al- Hance with Miss Elkins, without which the Duke cannot marry. He wishes to delay the statement con- firming his engagement, hoping to overcome the King’s reluctance. Meanwhile, notwithstanding his desire to maintain secrecy, the Duke of the Abruzzi cannot conceal his preparations for the marriage, information of which has leaked out and augments gossip.

Assistant Chief of Detectives McCarthy rode in the parade and stood oh the reviewing stand during the cere- monies. 500 in Reviewing Stand, The main reviewing stand was occu- pied by 500 invited guests, most of the city, State and Government officials. A special stand was reserved for members of the police board and their wives. Mrs. Benjamin R. Gray and her daughter-in- law were the only women in this en- closure. Chief Creecy’s two daughters, Misses Margaret and Mary Creecy and Miss Anna Gray occupied seats nearby. The potice made a splendid showing in their new uniforms and white gloves. They were drilled to perfection by Drill- master T. Rosser Roemeer. They showed to advantage both in the inspection lines and the dress parade in front of the re- viewing stand. An interesting feature of the event was an exhibition of racing by the mo- torcycle patrol squad. The five motor- cycle policemen whose duty it is to hold automobile scorchers in subjection, flew up and down Twelfth street sev- acral times at @ speed of 60 miles an hour. Prisoners Gain Liberty. While the parade was in © progress Judge Pollard of the Dayton Street Po-’ lice Court set at liberty several prison- ers because the polieemen were not there to prosecute. He criticised police- men for neglecting their duty, as he pyt it, to participate in the parade. Commissioner Fristoe did not partici- pate in the ceremonies. After the pa- rade the other commissioners were guests of Mayor Wells at luncheon at the Southern Hotel. There were three divisions of the pa- rade, including Mayor “Wells and the police commissioners in carriages, four platoons of mounted men, 10 companies marching as infantry, two bands, patrol wagons and police autos.

NEW YORK, Oct. 20.--More light was shed on the octepus grip maintained, by Charles W. Morse on Wall street while that financier was earning his title of “ice king’’ in 1905-6-7, at the resumption of the hearing today in the United States Circuit Court against him and Alfred H. Curtis, charged with wreck- ng the Bank of North America. The appearance in court of Miss ~~. son, Morse’s secretary, revived the port that she was to take the stand and tell how she practically directed the affairs of the National Bank of North America and the Ice Trust. After Wesley M. Oler, president of the American Ice Co., had detailed how Morse, to whome he owed much money, practically forced him to buy large blocks of stock of the American Ice Securities Co. and then flatly refused to allow him to sell, Edward P. Moxey, the Government detective, was called. Maintained 60 Accounts. Moxey showed that Morse maintained no less.than 60 Zccoupts for the hand- ling of the Stock Exchange accounts in the offices of different brokers and that “wash sales” and a thousand other devices to artificially advance the price cf American Ice were to him an every- day practice. Morse was shown to have had . ac- counts with Charles W. Gates & Co., with John W.

* HURST, Ill, Oct. 20.—While three men stood off practically the ertire population of Hurst by firing their re- volvers at everyone in sight, a fourth man fired seven charges of nitrogly- cerin and finally succeeded in wrecking the safe in the Carterville & Hurst Banking Co.'s office here at 3 o'clock this morning. The battle was kept up while the safe was rifled and continued until the bandits rode out of town with $1900 in cash, a number of Mis- souri Pacific Hailroad pay checks and a quantity of postage stamps. The banking company also operates. several mines and the stolen money had been in the safe here to be used on the next payday. It is suppesed that the robbers were men familiar with these conditions. Explosions Punctuate Battle. The first explésion awakened severai citizens and they rushed out on the street. They were driven back by a volley from the revolvers of the three ‘‘lookouts.’’ Explosion followed* explo- sion while the shooting was in prog- ress. The robbers’ aim was so accur- ate that the residents considered it safer to remain in their houses until the bandits had completed their work. When they attempted to leave the bank building, which had been practi- cally wrecked by the nitroglycerin, an- other battle occurred. The robbers dis- ‘appeared, and it is not believed that any of them was wounded, Bloodhounds Pursuing Robbers, A posse was formed at daylight and followed the robbers’ tracks for a mile, where the trail was lost. Bloodhounds were obtained from Harrisburg and took up,the trail where the posse left off. The officers of all nearby towns were notified, and it is considered probable that the men will be captured soon. The money taken by the robbers con- sisted chiefly of banknotes. Several hundred dollars in silver was scattered about the building by the force of the explosion. j "WOMAN AY CONFRONTS ICE NING IN COURT —

broker and at one price. On Oct. 2 of 1905, 2000 shares of Ice changed hands in the same way, except that on them Morse made a small profit. The first witness was Wesley M. Oler, Cold as the material in which he trades, with one exception he never skated where the ice was thin. That once was when Stimson tried to show that Morse had forced on Oler 2000 shares of Ice stock at 71, despite Oler’s desire to buy no more at that price. Forced Shares on Him. He admitted that Morse—to whom he was deeply indebted—had forced the 200) shares of Ice on him and that when he wished to sell and take up a note of $142,000 given to tne National Bank of North America, in payment for the stock, Morse flatly refused to let him do 80. To Assistant District Attorney Wise’s query as to whether Oler had ever paid the $142,000 note, the defense raised an objection, declaring it immaterial. Judge Hough ruled against the prose- cution. Further questioning of Oler both by the prosecution and by former United States District Attorney McFarland, for Morse, brought out the fact that of the $46,000,000 capitalization of the American Ice Co., on Oct. 12, 1906, $33,000,000 was composed of good will, water rights, eto., and that only $18,000,000 was tangi- ble. Oler’s examination ended with his statement that he had reorganized the American Ice Co. because its capitali- gation was excessive and that he now believed thht in its new form a repeti- tion of ‘the $2,000,000 profits of the com- pany in 1906 was not unlikely.

ST. bovis POST-DISPATCH ss oh? TUESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 20,, 1908. | cw WEST END KILLS NEGRO PROWLER . They Fought for Possession of - Revolver in Dark Alley. CUDDIHEE TELLS STORY Took Weapon From Man Who Wounded Himself and Fired Second Shot. After accidentally shooting himself in the abdomen, during a struggle for the revolver of Policeman Thomas F. Cud- dihee of the Newstead Avenue Station, Louis Allison, a negro, iv years old, was shot through the brain and killed by the policeman in an alley east from New- stead avenue, between McPherson and Maryland avenues, at 12:30 a. m. Tues- day. Cuddihee’s report stated that he haa questioned the negro, whose actions were suspicious, and that when the ne- gro said he was going home, the of- ficer accompanied him to verify thar statement. “The negro told me he reached his home through the alley,’’ Cuddihee told a Post-Dispatch reporter. “We had gone 160 feet into the alley wiien he turned ol me, called me a vile name and struck me. We clinched and, the next thing I knew, he had my revolver and was jabbing the muzzle against my abdomen. “IT twisted his wrist so that the weap- on Was against his own body and he “made a convulsive movement, pulling the trigger and shooting himself. “He relaxed his hold on the weapon and I jerked it away, shooting upward with the gun, about on a level with my waist. The bullet struck the negro in the jaw and entered his brain. I think he was dead when he struck the ground. ruggie Was Short. "s eed” for a patro] wagon and the ‘the body was taken first to the Dis- pensary and thence to the Morgue.” Cuddihee was asked if he thought it necessary to shoot the negro a second lime, He said: “Phe struggle lasted only about a minute. I was taken completely by sur- prise when the negro attacked me and In the excitement I hardly realized that ‘I was shooting. I had not intended to draw my gun at all until I discovered he had slipped it away from me.” _ Allison’s body was identified at the “Morgue by James D. Lucas of 4370 Mc- ‘Pherson avenue, who said the negro ‘had done occasional small jobs for him, being hired Monday to go for some auto lamps which were being repaired. _ Oscar Anderson, a negro living at 5549 Manchester avenue, said that at times Allison had occupied a room at, his house, but that he had not seen him for a week. |\NATURAL GAS A BIG. Mayors of Communities Where It Has Been Tested Give the Results. Great Reduction in Bills, With Service Satisfactory at All Seasons. Mayors of cities in which natural gas has been tried say ‘that it has been a good thing for their cities. Appreciating that the best informa- tion on the subject of natural gas is to be had from officials of cities where it has been in use, the Post-Dispatch sent a list of questions-to the mayors of a number of such cities, requesting that answers be telegraphed. The questions were: Is natural gas superior to and cheaper than manufactured gas? Is the supply adequate at all seasons ? Is gas at 35 cents a thousand feet cheap enough for manufactur- ing purposes? What percentage in reduction in bills has there been since its intro- duction? Following are the answers received: Sy Tom L. Johnson, (Mayor of Cleveland, 0O.) N been immensely satisfactory.

Se ~= a is cheaper than coal and it has none of the annoyances of coal. If the company that furnishes gas to §&t. Louis sees to it that its pipe lines have sufficient capacity there is no reason why it will not work satisfactorily every day of the year. Many of our manufacturing plants use it, but it will not be used universal- ly by manufacturers unless a price is given considerably lower than that granted for domestic purposes. I do not believe, at 35 cents a thou- sand, it can be used to y considera- ble extent by the manufacturers when we take into account the present prices of coal. I do not think the city of St. Louis would make a mistake in grant- ing a franchise for lighting purposes at 35 cents, especially if a lower rate could be secured for heating purposes to the domestic users. Our citizens pay the same for light- ing that they do for heating purposes. Our franchise could have been bet- tered in this particular. By George W. Guthrie, (Mayor of Pittsburg, Pa.) PITTSBURG, Pa., Oct. 20. BELIEVE that with large enough mains buried below frost line, nat- ural gas can be served in a satis- tion, factory manner at all seasons. he Call of Nature When nature is abused she first calls lightly and then in trumpet tones to the thoughtful man to “‘get right.’’ A slight “touch of indigestion,” feeling ‘‘a little indisposed, a “not so well” etc., are the first whisperings of trouble—the _ f warnings.

When Nature gives her signal that something is wrong it is generally with the food; the old Dame is always faith- ful and one should act at once. To put off the change is to risk that which may be irreparable. An Arizona man says: “For years I could not safely eat any breakfast. I tried all kinds of break- fast foods, but they were all soft, starchy messes, which gave me dis- tressing headaches. I drank strong coffee too, which appeared to benefit me at the time, but added to the head- aches afterwards. Toast and coffee were no better, for I found the toast very constipating. A rev persuaded me to quit the old coffee and the starchy breakfast foods, and use Postum and Grape-Nuts instead. I shall never regret taking his advice. I began using them three months ago. “The change they have worked in me is wonderful.. I now have no more of the distressing sensations in my stom- ach after eating, and I never have any headaches. I have : comes 12 pounds in weight and feel better in every way. Grape-Nuts make a delicious as well as a nutritious dish, and I find that Pos- tum is easily digested and never pro- duces whe symptoms.” “There's Get the Wellville,” in pkgs. Manufactured gas is not used to any extent in this city for heating purposes. Natural gas is in general use for do- mestic purposes. Two of the companies supply it for 27 cents per thousand feet, less 2: cents for prompt payment, The third company furnishes it for 30 cents, less 2% per cent for prompt payment. As a general rule manufacturerg esti- equivalent of coal at $1.50 a ton, where it is handled by hand, or $2 where it is handled. by stokers. In this they take into consideration the fact that with gas there is no ash to be disposed of. Sy A. PF. Clayton, Mayor of St. Joseph, Mo. ST. JOSEPH, Mo., Oct. 20. ATURAL gas is satisfactory for N heating, satisfactory for steam purposes, and satisfactory for small manufacturing plants using gas engines. It is:not as agheap as coal for heating, but is cleaner. Thirty-five cents is too high for manufacturing. I am informed some have contracted as low as 10 cents, with guarantee to use a certain quantity. Sy A. R. Turnbull, (Mayorof Canton, 0.) CANTON, O., Oct. 20. E have had natural gas in this W city. for 10 years. The first five years we paid 25 cents per thousand feet, and for the next five years 30 cents per thousand feet. The franchige of the East Ohio Gas Co. expired in September and our Coun- cil is now making an effort to have the company furnish gas to our city for 2 cents per thousand feet, I would state that viet Re is a very satisfactory fuel. in our city, both for domestic use and manufacturing purposes, and I will state that the service is very satisfactory. I consider natural gas at 35 cents per thousand feet cheaper than any fuel that can be procured in our section of the country for domestic purposes. We also have a rate for the manufac- turers which depends greatly on the amount used. We have a rate of 2 per cent off if paid on or before the tenth of each month. We consider natural gas far superior to manufactured gas. By M.Liebel, Jr. (Mayor of Erie, Pa.) ERIE, Pa., Oct. 20. RIE is not far from Pennsylvania’s E great gas field and is served by the Pennsylvania Gas Co. with natural gas at 30 cents per thousand cu- bic feet net. Manufactured gas is % cents for fuel and $1 for lighting. The rates for manufactured gas were ma- terially reduced upon the introduction of natural gas. Natural gas is used only in small fao- tories equipped with gas engines, though this use is growing. The supply fails at infrequent intervals, but consequent embarrassment really amounts to but little. Natural gas is superior because sup- plied at less cost. I think it very de- sirable that any franchises granted be so drawn that the city may compel rea- sonable extensions, By Willlarmm Green, (Mayor of Topeka, Kan.) TOPEKA, Kan., Oct. 20, factured gas for heating or illum- inating. It is satisfactory as in- stalled here when adequate supply can be furnished. Gas at 35 cents is not cheap enough for use in manufacturing. Topeka pays 2% .cents for domestic use and 10 cents for usé in manufacturing. By Sam Carison, (Mayor of Jamestown, N. Y.) JAMESTOWN, N.

There has been some dissatisfaction at times because of shortage in supply. Thirty- five-cent gas would be expensive for manufacturing. We are considering the installation of municipal steam heating.

Thirty-five cents is too high for manufacturing, as about 20,000 cubic feet of gas equals one ton of clean coal. Not much gas is used for boilers here, as 18 cents per thou- sand is higher than coal.

Yielding to public dissatisfaction with the granting of Unlimited franchises to the King and Suburban Electric Light companies in St. Louis County, the County Court Is withholding its approv- al of the minutes of the meeting of the court at which the franchises were granted, It was expected that the minutes would be approved Monday afternoon, but action was deferred. The franchises were granted by the votes of Judges Rannels and Kasse- baum. Presiding Judge Wiethaup voted against the grant, contending that a maximum rate ghould be fixed. Judge Rannels now sides with Judge Wiethaup to the extent of saying he hopes a maxi- mum rate will be fixed. Judge Wiethaup, however, is convinced that the damage has been done and that the court has no power to fix a maximym rate. He says that no matter whether the minutes are approved or not, the franchise will stand. He bases his opinion on the decision of Judge Ryors in the cage of Charles Cooney, a Wellston saloon keeper, who was grant- ed a dramshop. license. The minutes were not approved, but Juuge Ryors held that this was not necessary. R. H. Stevens, an attorney, holds that the court has the right to revoke its ac- tion any time during the present term of the court.

Rescued From River, Young Woman Says Sweetheart Killed Himself.

By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Oct. 2.—Prevented from jumping into the East River a second time after she had heen rescued off a pier in Willlamsburg, a comely girl of 20 was partially revived and her rescuers heard her murmur: “I have done what a man would do. You'd bet- ter go to 115 Green Point avenue. There’s a man dead there. He shot himself.” Afl haste was made to the address. Policemen knocked at the door of the dwelling. Receiving no response, they forced the door. In the parlor lay a dead man. He was stretched in front of a mirror and there was a bullet wound over his right ear. When quieted with sedatives, the girl said: “Eddie McDonald and I had been keep- ing company for some months and final- ly he promised to marry me. My name is Nellie Waldren. I told Eddie it was imperative that we be married, but he made excuses. I bought a revolver and determined to shoot myself if Eddie did not keep his promise. I went to his house and found him alone. He said he could not support a wife and we quar- reled. “IT took the revolver from the bosom of my waist and told Eddie I was going to kill myself. He said he was tired of life, wrested the pistol from me, pressed it to his head and pulled the trigger. I made up my mind te throw myself into the river.’’ There were no powder marks on Mc- Donald’s head, as would have been the case if the pistol was discharged at close range. iss Waldren was arrested on a charge of attempted suicide. While detectives were in the Green Point avenue house, a sister of the dead man rushed in, eg a= by her fa- ther. She said she had been in the kitchen when the Waldren girl appeared and demanded to see Mc nese. The couple went to the parler and then came the pistol shots. Miss McDonald ran into the room and saw Miss Waldren holding McDonald’s head in her lap. Miss McDonald ran out ef the house to find her father and in her absence Miss Waldren disappeared. I$ ISSUED

TRIED OUT ON "AMERICAN BILL Ignazio Papanini Nervous, but Sang Well—Other Vaude- ville Offerings.

The new bill opening at the American yesterday podgsessed special interest owing to the ‘‘trying out’ of an Italian baritone, Ignazio Papanini, whom it is the intention of the Oppenheimers to send on tour. . Sig. Papanini has a powerful and resonant voice, with some good robust tenor notes and }ssessing considerable sweetness. He was very nervous at his first appearance, but so acquitted him- self as to win the house’s favor, espe- cially in his singing of a ‘“Traviata’”’ number and of “‘La Paloma,”’ the fa- mous Spanish-Mexican love song. Winona Winter, -returned to vaude- ville, is the most pleasing feature of the new bill, aBpearing in attractive songs and a clever imitatio. of Vernon, the ventriloquist. Other acts are Frank Work and Reinhold: Ower, European comedy gymnasts; Maurice Cooke, ec- centric acrobat; Agnes Mahr, assisted by Flora Mabhr, in imitations of stage favorites; Walter Montague and com- pany, in an entertajning sketch; Frank White and Lew Simmons, in a black- face character act entitled “On the Band Wagon; Armstrong and Clark, introducing their own sengs, and the en —- TUESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 20, 1908.

Green, who lives at the Little Plant- ers Hotel «n South Fourth street, said he was giving away pennies Monday evening to a group of children, of whom Helen Lee was the youngest, near her home. “When I had given them a penny apiece all around,” he said, “the other children ran away to spend theirs, and left the smallest one there. She began 4to cry, and I took her by the hand and started after the others. “Pretty soon I saw I was being chased and I let go of her hand and ran into a : house.” The man was taken from a vacant house on’ Twenty-second street, near Franklin avenue, after he had locked himself in a room. Patrick Lee, little Helen’s father, took part in the chase, as did a neighbor, Mre. Ellen Kendrick. Both say that, when they first saw Green, he was carrying little Helen on his shoulder. He denies this. Helen Kirn, 12 years old, one of the children to whom Green gave pennies, said Tuesday that he tried to persuade her to leave the rest and go with him, offering her 25 cents.

Kidd's treasures and the riches of the Spanish Main. Bdawards is 70 years old and lives in Litchfield, ill. When his wife, now 60 years old, ‘was 12, she came from Swit- geriand to the United States with her father, Fren Von Ash, and her brothers and sisters. In St. Louis, which was then a part of St. Louis County, Von Ash went to two lawyers, “tte left two bags of gold and two bags, of silver with them,” said Ed- wards. ‘“‘He took out about half of the coins from one of the bags of silver. The rest they took for safe keeping. He signed some papers. “The old gentleman died and the chil- dren never were able to get the money. I want to find the record of the papers, if there was any record made of them, so that maybe my wife can trace the s of money.’ Deine old man was told that the coun- ty recorder had only the records since the separation of city and county in 1876, and that the records before that time were in the St. Louis Recorder's of- fice. He then started back to the city.

Now her influence promises to re- dound beneficially upon her benefactors. “She ts a beautiful example, if not a living réproof, to the other girls,” said Mrs.. Heron, the principal. “Not that our girls need reproving for any laxity in the faith—a record of 78 years testifies substantially to Pres- byterian prosperity in this school, but the ardent faith of Jessie will make them loath to undeceive her as to their less devout conduct, so her influence cannot but work for good.” Miss Jessie knows but a few words ef English, but she makes it very plain that she has left her parents and her 12 brothers and sisters and all her nieces and nephews, of whom she fond- ly shows you photographs, and has voluntarily sacrificed these years of her life to the further study of the Chris- ——__—_—_ When hungry between meals a dish of delicious, flavory, crisp Post Toasties With eream and a little sugar Will prove a delight— and satisfaction.

Arrangements for the funeral of Julius De Mun Walsh, formerly chief clerk in the real estate ‘department of the Mis- sissippi Valley Trust Co., who died Mon- day at Saranac Lake, N. Y., were not completed Tuesday. For three years Mr. Walsh has been traveling hoping to benefit his health. Mr. Walsh was born in St. Louis Aug. 1, 1874. ° He graduated from Yale in 1896. After being employed in the Mis- sissippi Valley Trust Co. for nine years, he was forced to give up his position because of ill-health. He was a son of the late John A. Walsh and a nephew of Julius S. Walsh, chairman of the Board of Directors of the Mississippi Valley Trust Co.

INSULT WAS RESENTED | AT (BENEFACTOR OF | NEWSBOYS GIVES |" THEM: BANQUET Attend Affair at Father ' - Dunne’s Home. a = * 33 ’ PAINTINGS PRESENTED Hugh Campbell, Modes: Phil- anthropist, Runs From Youthful Applause. It’s a good thing for the ‘hewsboys of St. Louis that Hugh Campbell is a bach- elor, because if he had boys of his own, he might spend for them the money ‘that he now gives for the comfort and plea- sure of the young merchant. Having no children of his own Mr. Campbell has become a father to the two hun- dred boys in Father Dunne’s Newsboys’ Home. Mr. Campbell is so modest a philan- thropist that when he gave a banquet Monday evening to the Qoys of the Homie.-.and to Mgr. Diomede\ Fal- conio, the Papal delegate, and to Arch- bishop Glennon and other archbishops and priests of the Catholic. church, he stood back among the waiters unob- served. The banquet cost Mr. Campbell several hundred dollars; three paintings which he presented at the same time to the Home cost him several thousand dollara, and the.building in which the banquet was held cost him about $40,000, but, as he whisperes privately behind his hand to a man he did not know was a news- paper reporter: “What do I care what it costs so long as I am, made happy by seeing these boys happy? That is reward enough for me.’’ All the newétiene know that Mr. Campbell is. their benefactor and they love him.’ The majority of these boys were waifs on the street who never knew the love ofa father and Mr. Campbell is a father to them. The pre- lates of the Catholic church know about it too, but all of them are sworn to secrecy. It is understood that Mr, Campbell's name is never to appear on that it is never to be mentioned in public in connection with the home. And so, when Archbishop Glennon was speaking t® the boys after they had eaten their fill Monday évening, he did pot dare to mention the name = Mr. Campbell, but he spoke of him “Your Benefactor’ and every Soy table where stood, leaning against the wall, an elderly gentleman with— thin gray hair and mustache and a face ne beamed with kindness and pleasure. And when the 200 boys clapped their hands and cheered and waved their napkins at him, Mr. Campbell turned and left the room. “That repays me for it all,” he said with tears in hig eyes. “They are happy and I thank God that # Has been given to me to be able to bring happiness into the lives of so many boys who ‘would otherwise be ne- glected.’ RAF LS WE TRIM HATS FREE rials ; You select your shape and mate- give your order to the mil- liner; who truns your hat as you J Wednesday Special Millinery Barg BEAVER.

DEATH-DEALING FENDERS. Since the first of last April seven children have been killed by the street cars. In nearly every case the fatal injury has been due to the inefa- ciency of the fenders used by the United Railways, which, instead of saving life, have operated as death-dealing instruments. The menace of. the fenders was illustrated in the killing of little Ag- nes Wild last Saturday. Instead of being picked up and saved from serious injury by the fender, the child was crushed and dragged under the fen- der. ‘ One fatal fault with the form of fender in use is that the efficiency depends upon the action of the motorman at the moment of the accident. Usually the motorman is panic-stricken, but even if he were cool and quick it would be practically im- possible for him in all cases to put on brakes, reverse power and drop the fender at the same moment. Too much is required of one man. The principle of the fender controlled by the motor- man is condemned by all experts. WBither the fender should be ready for business at all times or should work automatically. ‘ Under the fender law passed by the Municipa) ‘Assembly for the protection of life and limb, all fenders must have the approval of the Board of Public Improvements before they can be put in use. It is the duty of the board to inspect and test fenders before approving them. The responsibility for the use of inefficient fen- ders rests with both the street railway manage- ment and the Board of Public Improvements. The blood of the innocents who have’ been killed by cheap and inefficient devices stains the hands of both. = = = > —_ = If the g. 0. p. attempts to buy the election it

KERENS’ CANDIDACY. . “| privite Granting all that can be “said for Col. Kerens on account of his services to the Republican party, what possible ground can be found in those sery- ices to justify his election to the United States‘ Senate as the representative of Missouri. Col. Kerens’ services have consisted in the main of liberal contributions to the Republican ¢am- paign funds. His. purse is fat and he has opened it generously for the “boys.” In exchange for his generosity Col. Kerens has had prominence in party councils and compli- mentary nominations to the full extent of his de- serving. | What, except the dough-bag, does Col. Kerens represent in politics? What are his qualifica- tions? : Has Col. Kerens ever indicated a statesmanlike capacity to serve a great State with credit in the highest legislative body of the country? Would he be hailed as a strong, able, progressive repre- sentative of the people? Would he shine on the floor of the Senate? Would he give strength to the cause of the people in the oueperattions and the work of the Senate? - Has Col. Kerens ever contributed one idea to State or national politics? Has he ever been identified with any reform or any political move- ment for the welfare of the people? Is there any- thing in his record or his utterances indicating that he represents anything in politics except money, the capacity to make it and the willing- ness to circulate and use it for party advantage? On the contrary, does not the record, affiliations and utterances of Col. Kerens identify him wholly with the plutocratic interests, Shall it: be said of the Republican party of Mis- ‘souri in this day of enlightenment and reform in politics that its choice as the representative of the party and the State in the United States Senate, the highest office in the gift of the people of Missouri, is a man whose fitness is measured t~ “'= ability and willingness to fill the party dough-bag. Would Missouri Republicans dare go before the people of the State with Col. Kerens as the sena- torial nominee before the general election? With ‘his lead in the race for the party nomination ad- mitted by Republican organs and leaders, how can the party managers expect popular support.of the Republican legislative candidates? With what sincerity can they plead devotion to the popular issues of the campaign? : Two dangers confront the people of Missouri in the approaching election—the re-election of Senator Stone, whose furtive alliances with plu- toeratic interests discredit his leadership, or the election of Gol. Kerens who is openly identified with the plutacratic interests. If Misséuri is to be saved from the possibility of reproach ths the senatorship the vote of good Democrats should be concentrated on Gov. Folk, and the good citizenship of the State should sup- port Democratic legislators. | io4 & TT Fre oe

In an article in the Annals of the American

publican manufacturer and protectionist, exposes the trick of tariff making. Mr. Miles tells the story of a Senator who held up the Dingley bill until he got a wholly unwar- ranted tariff on borax worth $5, 000, 000 to him and his friends. borax, the most easily mined and the best de- posits in the world, is protected against inferior foreign deposits, and that the retail price of the United States it ig 21-2 cents plus the 5 lish syndicate for $12,-

privilege containing the essence of the whole | scheme ‘of privilege. Eyery principle and ~-ssi- bility of monopoly is aired: Taaaaia in this remarka- ble case. The tariff ‘pian in the ibnietibnass platform reads: “The-true principle of protection is best maintained by the imposition of such duties as wii equal the difference between the cost of vro- duction at home and -abroad, together with a reasonable profit to American industries. " Since borax costs less in this country than in England, it is easy to understand the chuckle of the. borax Senator when he disposed of his mo- nopoly privilege for $12,000,000. ‘But the sarcasm is whetted by the fact that the-“reasonable profit to American industries’ is converted by a stroke of the pen into an unreasonable profit for Eng- lish investors and the American privilege holder, at the expense of American industry. The best comment which can be made upon this monstrous hypocrisy is found in an opinion of Justice Miller of the United States Supreme Court: “To lay with one hand the power of the Gov- ernment on the profits of the citizen, and with the other to bestow it upon favored individuals to aid private enterprise and build up private for- tunes, is none the legs robbery because it is done under the forms of law and is called taxation.” + = = = i i A Hadley is welcome to the support of Dave Ball’s brother Jim if he fancies it—although Jim is not

Dress Clothes and the shies Show. Te the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. * The Horse Show is St. Louis’ greatest social func- tion of a general nature. the common people, not by seciety. Many men, my- self included, like to -see the show of men, women and horses, but do not owm or care to own or to wear a dress suit. We like to walk about the prome- nade and meet friends, talk horse and women and have a good time. Why should we have to wear 2 dress suit? I protest against this snobbishness. I understand that the Horse Show Society has made up its mind net'to allow any but men in dress suits on the promenade. If this is so, the public, which has for years supported this event, should know in ad- vance that it is not wanted. A COMMONER. A Correction. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch.

oF Accessories to Fraud. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. While I am “not always in accord with your ed- {torial expressions, I think your cartoon on the elec- tion thieves gnawing at the foundation of our Gov- ernment, as the strongest possible appeal to the liberty-loving voter.to do his share towards purify- ing the ballot. When we by our actions demand: a fair and honest count and the right of every man to one and only one yote, and condemn the men higher up, the ones that profit by such acts, instead of electing them to office and to make our laws, then we ‘will have honest elections, Every man who neglects to vote or take an interest in the affairs of Government or excuses these election crooks, both high and low, because his party may be implicated or gain by such. acts, is himself an accessory to the crime. The election frauds are only possible because of the indifference of the voters. B. 8.

From a Republican’s Wife. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. While I-am not a politician, yet I followed closely the news and notes of the Government for the past 10 years. My husband has always been a Hepublican, but I must say “‘There is something rotten in Den- mark.” Why is it there are so many poor children in Chicago and other cities who actually have not the necessities of life. Who, half-clad, are compelled to go to school hungry, in order that they might get education, when our President, who ought to be the people’s protector, has two private yachts for his own and his family’s use, and who, according to re- ports, has already cost the Government $3,000,000,000, and one-tenth of the mohey spent on ‘the useless voyage of our warships around the world would have clothed and fed all the poor children in the United States. They should be looked affer, for on the future generation depends the rise or fall of our Government. A TEXAS WOMAN. Waco, Tex. THE REPUBLICAN MACHINE. From the Independent. In Indiana the city bldck in cities and the schooi district in the country @re the units of organiza- tion, and each unit is placed directly in charge of 4 reliable worker who ig held responsible for the re- sults therein. He is expected to know every voter, his political affiliations and his susceptibilities. The Indiana organization, or *“Machine,"” as its opponents call it, has the reputation of being the most effective in the Central West. In Illinois the precinct igs the unit and 10 men are placed in charge of each pre- cinet. The State Committee has 4000 men at its com- mand, who can be depended upon to get into political action upon short notice. These men make a care- ful eanvass of the State at least every two years. In Pennsylvania there is a system of county lead- ers who are held responsible for the results tn the counties. These in turn bold the city, town, village and township leaders responsible for results in these subdivisions.

WHY THE STUMP SPEECH? Unless it is the politicians themselves, nothing else in our national life is so overrated as the stump speech. It is attended by none but those of the speaker’s faith. These, were already determined to vote the ticket for which the speaker is braving throat trouble and the night air, so that the only ef- fect the speech could have on thém helpful to the succored cause would be to induce them to vote more than once, which is not to be thought of in con- nection with our more notable orators. The stump speakers make no converts. They Know it. No one ever heard a stump speaker ask the penitents to come forward after the address. They know very well that there are no peni- tents. Their method has been’ known to be futile by the evangelists for more than half a century. Contrast Mr. Bryan and Senator Beveridge with the Rev. ‘“‘Billy’’ Sunday. The Rev. “Billy” assumes that all his hedrers are sin- ners. He seeks to convince them that they have done wrong, d urges them to repent. Bryan and Beverldge, upon the other hand, assume that their hear- ers are all of the speaker's faith. They assure them that they have been doing right, and urge them to go on doing it. There is no personal appeal. A political sinner who wanted to repent and move up front at a political meeting would be regarded as a disturber from the opposing party hired to break up the meeting.

Prof. Nix made a rapid mental cal- culation. ‘“‘Twenty-four dollars and for- ty-six cents,” he announced, and then glanced up uneasily. ‘*Yes, Charles,”’ said the professor’s wife, reading his thoughts. “I am sure there is a beautiful one-four-bim-click tailored suit waiting for me tomorrow at the Colossal Emporium.

There were but two fours in the recent Louisville show, and Chicago never boasted more than four. St. Louis will have not less than six. That many is assured already. And there may be more.

“Bobby’’ Ailsworth, who played sub- quarter on the Washington varsity last year, has finally showed up for prac- tice. Ailsworth has been working and only Saturday gave up his position, so that he is free now to go out for the team. The coming of this new man will help Coach Cayou greatly. The quarterback position has been the weak point all sea- son. First Charlie Castlen, then Gold- smith, then Harry Castlen have been tried out. Castlen number one sprained his ankle, and Goldsmith did the same, though it.wmay be said that neither were up to varsity quality. Thetr work in running back punts was especially un- certain. Harry Castlen is as yet in too poor physical condition to play his best game, so Ailsworth Is the right man qt the right time. ; Ailsworth played third base for the varsity ball team and is a particularly speedy and heady man. His baseball has made him sure catching punts and he is a good open-field runner. Monday Cayou put the squad through a heavy practice, though he did not have a scrimmage. He had the ends tackling the dummy for about two hours, then sent them after the backs while they caught punts and ran them back up the fleld. All of the heavy men were chased around the track three times after practice. MANUAL GIVEN VERDICT IN DISPUTED CENTRAL GAME The Manual Training School eleven was awarded a victory over the Cen- tral High School team by Referee Rob- inson in a written opinion on the game handed down yesterday, as told in the late editions of the Post-Dispatch. ' The score was 10 to 6 in favor of Manual, according tv Robinson. His ‘contention is that there is noth- ing in the rules to say that he shall have any jurjsdiction as to when time is up. As soon as the timekeepers ran on the fleld the game was over. Ac- cording to Robinson, the Central High School timer and Manual timekeeper agree that they started to run out on the field at least 10 seconds before the play which gave Central its final touch- down was started. This being the case, Robinson decided that the game was over before Central started its last play, which resulted in a touchdown, and if allowed would have given Central a victory, 11 to 10.

Lamb Popular Choice for St. L. U. Captaincy

a». » "se * OLLOWING ‘the resignation E Eddie Murply as quarterback and captain of the St. uis Uni- versity foetball team yesterday, an elec- tion will probably be held tonight to name his successor. But three men are eligible for the place, Frank Acker, Co- chems’ great halfback; Dave Lamb, Nho has develuped into one of the best tackles in the West, and Archie Lowe, | who alternated last year with Dick Roche at end. Dave Lamb is the prob- able choice, as Acker does not want the job until next season, while’ Lowe is not particularly eager to shoulder the responsibility of the position. Lamb's experience ang ability make him a desirable man. Murphy did a very graceful act when he resigned from the squad, yesterday afternoon, according to one of the teachers at the university, who takes a great interest in athletics. Murphy gave as his reason for resigning the fact that his parents object, and also that of late his heart hag not been in the game. “Murphy has not been playing the football this season that he did for the past two years,’ said the father. ‘‘Per- haps it is his health or, as he says, he was Josing interest in the game. His joints are stiffening up and he did not have the same snap and dash that for the past two years made him such a great little player. ‘T’ll venture to say that if 75 out of every 100 persons who witnessed the work of Murphy and Frank Cornet in Saturday's game and were asked which they would put in at the quarterback position they would decide on Cornet.” Murphy’s Rise to Fame. Murphy displaced Frankie Howe, just as Cornet is to take his place. Three years ago Frankie Howe was the regu- lar quarterback of the team. He had been playing a good game and it did not seem possible for anybody to get his position. Murphy, who came from 8t. Marys, Kan., with quite a reputation as quarterback, was given a chance in one

of,of the games. He used great judgment in handling the eleven. and was great on to the side tried hard to get back his old position,

season.

His work was wonderful. He had speed, no end of nerve returning a ball through a broken field. Howe was sent lines. The next year he but without avail and finally quit the squad. Early in the season, when littie Frank Cornet came Out, there did not seem a chance for him to replace Murphy. Cochems took him in charge and when the game was in progress Cornet kept at Cochems’ heels and the coach ex- plained the different plays to him and the best way to work. Because of his great speed he was worth experimenting with. Cornet finally got his chance and made good. Murphy did not walt to battle like Howe for his position, as he was playing against his parents’ wishes, so resigned almost instantly. Cornet Too Frail? Cornet is really rather light for a varsity team, but his great speed, nerve d and ability to think fast makes him a valuable man. He is rigso developing as¢ a drop kicker. Hawkins, Cochems’ big fullback, is said to be suffering from an attack of fever that may keep him in bed for some days longer. Brinkop is also out of the game on account of illness. \Lind- sey has a smashed nose, a small bone broken in his arm and either a broken rib or one of his ribs torn loose. Devlin and Lowe were both out in suits yes- terday, but were limping. Sullivan was out, but did not get into a suit. Neither did Acker. They were allowed by the coach to take a rest. Father Burke, director of athletics at the University, announced this morning that reserved seat tickets for Saturday's game with peng College are on sale at Bollman’s and Spalding’s, Se Manual and McKinley are also sched- uled to clash a weck from Saturday. This would put the two most imbortant games of the season on the same day in the season and rather early in the

A rumor, supposed to come from Chi- cago, states that John McCloskey de- clared that he would not manage the St. Louls Cardinals next season. Mc- Closkey was a visitor in the Windy City ryesterday and is reported as saying that he had severed connections with the Cardinals. Owner Robison of the Cardinals was not in the city today, but from his headquarters it was announced that Mr. McCloskey had not left the team, How- ever, it is quite generally known tha: McCloskey’s job: was in question | for another season and those on the inside are aware that Robison wants to get another leader for the Cardinals. How- ever, he and Mr. McCloskey parted On the best of terms after the season closed and to all indications McCloskey was te be retained, for Robison instructed him to be on the lookout for new ma- terial or trades during the winter onths. Before McGloskey left St; Louis he talked of the plans for the Cardinals for next season. “T have heard nothing from Mr. Rob- lison that he expects someone else to manage the team next season,”’ said McCloskey. “I would like to come back, bezause I think I have now gath- ered enough good material together to make a winning team. I would like to have put through one or two deals dur- i the past season, but they were blocked; Otherwise the Cardinals would have climbed out of last place this year. Mr. Robison has not offered me a con- tract for next season, but I do not ex: pect one before the first of the year. However, he told me to watch out for any trades or new material during the winter. I expect to spend the winter at my home in Louisville and if I should decide to leave the Cardinals, I will an- nounce it from there.”’ There has been a rumor that Roger Bresnahan would manage the Cardinals, but nothing official hag as yet been giv- en out. ak« A CH rea Oct Piya ' Ginatee te the Tribune from Los Angeles, Cal., says: “Fred Buelow, the Cleveland catcher, who is to play with Washington next “ear, yesterday broke his ankle while sliding to a base.

NEW HAVEN, Conn., Oct. 20 DWARD H. COY, 1910, of New Haven, Yale's fullback, has been elected field captain of the Yale eleven. Capt. Robert B. Burch of Cin- cinnati. who was injured, will remain the leader of the team, but will captain from the side lines the entire season while Coy will be in charge on the field. The election was unanimous and is a very popular one on the campus. Coy played fullback and was captain of his dane Aen ok team two years ago and was varsity fullback last year. He was chosen for several of the All-American teams. He tied Burch for captain last winter. and the election had to be de- layed for a month for the return of G. R. Berger to vote it off.

; NEW YORK, Oct. 2.—Up at Capt. Bond’s, in the little tewn of Stratford, Cofn., many great fighting men have trained. Terry M@Govern made it his camp in the old days. Young Corbett worked there, ‘Kid’ Broad and a score of others. I've seen a Int of famous lads at old Capt. Bond’s. But, unless my judgment is off, I saw the peer of them all in Packey McFarland. Here’s a fighter for you. He’s lean and sinewy, cool, smiling, swift, vicious, game, enduring, crafty, clever, ambitt- ous. What other aftributes can a champion—or a coming champion— have? If ever a man had a fighting head Mc- Farland is the gentleman in question. Clipper—almost shaved—his bony front piece has a forbidding appearance. Mc- Farland’s head is wide above the ears and well shaped and balanced on a sinewy neck, His / heek bones stand out sharply under a rkin sun baked and tanned to the toughness of leather by continual training in open air, There are a few hardly noticeable scars of batile on his face—a nose that has been quite as delicate as rose leaves. McFarland is a pe t fighting ma- chine. He is full ‘of nerve and energy, Every movement bas the sudden ac- trigger. His foot-vork is lke a dancing master’s. Cross won't compare as fa- vorable with this lightning streak from Chicago as he did with Willie Fitz- gerald. McFarland is the faster scientific man. He is stronger, too. in the very cut o. his fighting profile is the stamp of & gameness that Cross lacks entirely. 4 ’ I don’t know what chance McFariand it's probably a good one, Among ‘the New York lightweights he'll look Very. much like the “real thing.” He has all of Tommy Murphy's cleverness and gameness and speed. Murphy should be his next opponent. That will be a fight beat Nelson if he ever meets the Dane. “Well,” said Packey, “I think Nelson can be knocked out, of course, for he’s only a little tougher than most of the others. But I hardly thing that’s the best way to beat hi. If I fight him I'll not try to bit on the jaw at all. a en
