NEW YORK, Nov. 21.—The Post-Dispatch is able today to ~ present the first absolutely accurate and authentic synopsis of the _ now world-celebrated interview granted by Kaiser Wilhelm to Dr. | William Bayard Hale. eo . Due to the irresponsible publication yesterday of an gntirely ¢ formal request of his Foreign Office of the German Govern- ent, the New York World and St. Louis Post-Dispatch were re- @sed from an. ‘obligation and consequently’ present the official hopsis of the Emperor’s extraordinary statements. §UMMARY OF MAIN POINTS IN INTERVIEW. ~ Summarized, the main points of the Kaiser’s interview, which _ took place on the Imperial yacht Hohenzollern off Bergen, Norway, re as follows: : That King Edward of Great Britain has been —— him for more | two years and that he was exasperated. ’ That Germany was the paramount power in all Europe, and that England is trying to neutralize that power. , 5 That he held France in the hollow of his hand,- and that Rassia was of no count since the disastrous war she had waged with Japan. a That if the pan-European war which had been so much talked about was svitable, the sooner it came the better it wayne be for him, because he was y and was tired of the suspense. “GREAT BRITAIN A DECADENT NATION.” " That Great Britain had been a decadent nation ever since ‘her victory over + Transvaal and the Orange Free: State, because, England’s was an unright- us, “ungodly cause and divine judgment was bound eventually to overtake » powerful nation that waged such a war. faite: the Anglo-Japanese alliance was an iniquitous alliance against all . # while professing openly to be England’s friend and ally. t the only way to counteract this alliance was for Germany and Ameri- act together at an wy date, or America would have to fight the Japanese i, - 8 im the event of a great war England would lose many of her large blonies, especially those in the Pacific, and that all he would take for Germany Id be Egypt, though he would liberate the Holy Land from the yoke of the , presumably meaning the Sultan. ic the perfecting of the Zeppelin dirigible balloon would give Germany a wrer advantage in war, and she was ready to make use of it to the fullest KAISER HAD DINED AND WINED WELL. The interview took placé one evening just after the Kaiser had wined and a heartily. He was in a humor which is said to be no novelty to his in- mates.

(), CORE INI ER 13 YEARS, THEN LOSES HIM Miss Maude —— of St. Louis} “Sues for Lad in Belling- ham, Wash, : ° LOST:WHEN AN _ INFANT Mother. Says Child Was Stolen Soon After Its Birth in Hospital Here. Miss Maude Fields of 1419A Laurel avenue searched for 13 years and found. her child in far-away Bellingham, Wash., only to lose him again. As the result of a court’s decision against her, according to press dispatches, Miss Fields must return to St. Louis alone, leaving the boy to its foster parents, Mr. and Mrs. A. W. Deming, formerly of St. Louis. When Judge De Tiere of Bellingham announced his decision refusing to give the child to Miss Fields, she became hysterical and threatened to kill herself. Almost ever since the day of the child’s birth Miss Fields has been searching the country over for him. Last June she learned that he was in Bellingham and with her § attorney, Judge H. C. O’Brien of Charlestown, Mo., went out there and laid claim to it. The boy’s foster parents refused to’ give him up and Miss “Fields brought suit and was defeated. She appealed to the Superior Court and the case was decided against her again Friday. Baby Taken From Hospital. Miss Fields came to St. Louis from Sikestown, Mo., when she was 20 years old and went immediately to a hospital, where her baby was born. After Its birth she was taken away and three weeks later went back to the hospital to claim the child. She was told that it had been adopted and taken away and further information was refused her. Since then Miss Fields has sought everywhere for the child, now grown to a‘ fine boy of 18 years, through the _ insistence nd clever detective work of a friend In St. Louis he learned that the Demings were the people who had taken the child from the hospital, and that they had moved to Seattle, and later to Bellingham. “Miss Fields has spent the last 12 years of her life in a systematic search for her boy,’ said a friend of Miss Fields Saturday. “If she has lost him through the action of the court after her long fight it will be a heavy blow toe her. ‘ Father Hindered Search. “The child’s father I understand is @ rich merchant in a town in Southern Missouri, who has since married. I un- derstand that it was his wish that she should not get possession ef the boy and he used his money and influence to prevent her from finding out where he was and who had him. Miss Fields always seemed to have plenty of funds at her command to conduct her search, but I knew nothing of her resources. “When I aske@ her why she wanted to take the responsibility of the boy's upbringing under the circumstances and after so long a period had elapsed since she had lost him, she has always replied that she never intended that he should leave her, and that she had been taken from the hospital so that he Thight be spirited away from her. Her heart longed always for the little fellow and she said she would never be satisfied until she should see him again and he should know her as his mether.”’ ST.

In the room were Forta Sofar, his brother, John Sotar, Niki Spyro, Stephen Mytre and Theodore Peto. , A dark-faced, -well-dressed walked in. He smiled. “My name-is llo,’’ he said. “I have eome to hire men to work: in the St. Charles Car Co.’s factory.” He was 2 most agreeable man. He smiled nearly all the time and he bought man Said He Had Much Money. He drank with his new-found friends until 11 p. m., when, according to a statement made by John Sotar, he said: “Tt is late. I have much money in my pocket. I would like to remain here all night.’’ The others were eager to entertain 80 agreeable a companion, who bought beer so freely. ‘We will have more drink and then we will go to bed,’’ said the stranger. Forta Sotar shared his cot with ‘‘Ilo.”’ An hour,later the five men awoke in agony. Ilo was gone. Forta Sotar, with whom he had slept, was rolling about on the floor in his death agony. Before the cries of the other men had attracted neighbors to the room, Forta was unconscious. Theodore Peto was also unconscious, and Spyro, Mytre and John Sotar were in convulsions. Only John Sotar was able to make a disconnected statement when the police arrived. The mattress o« each of the cots had been cut open as with a sharp knife. According to the accounting made by John Sotar, $160 of his brother Forta’s money was taken: John himself lost $44, Spyro $30 and Mytre $3. Forta Sotar died in an ambulance on the way. to the City Hospital. Peto and John Sotar are at the hos- pital. Physicians there say that Peto's condition is serious and that his symp- toms are those of strychnine poisoning.

The last quarter of a century Harvard had had. but three victories over Yale, including a game just 2 years ago. Harvard was bat- tling with all the power within her men to add one more shining bar. upon her athletic scutcheon.

The back field was the same as selected for last year’s game against Harvard, until an injury to Wheaton compelled a change. Both teams had a strong string of substi- tutes. Harvard won toss-up and took south goal. Yale kicked Hobbs sent three-yard line. Corbett ran it back 2 yards.

Prevented by a ruling of court from going on the witness stand, Mrs. Guil- lelilmine E. Moloney of 5635 Bartmer avenue, from whom Robert E. Moloney was granted a divorce by Judge With- ‘yew Friday, told her side of the case to a Post-Dispatch reporter Saturday. She declared it was her intention to appeal from the ruling in an attempt ,to have the decree set aside. ‘ Mrs. Moloney was in court with her lawyer, Arthur Digby, but was not per- mitted to testify on the ground that she was in default, having delayed in filing answer to the suit.

He had testified that she ‘gtruck him once because he refused to go out in the rain to mail a ‘etter for her, and as a result of that blow, he “saw stars,” said. Mrs. Molo denied the incident of the letter, but admitted that she struck her husband one time because he called her a liar while she was kneeling in her bedroom’ in prayer.

He wore felt slippers. And he teok off more than his shoes.: Often he would come to the table in’ only his underwear and the neighbors have seen him on the back porch‘in the daytime in that-condition.”’ According to Mrs. Moloney, her hus- band reveled in seeing her suffer. “He would continue ‘to offend me ‘until I burst out crying,” said the woman. — "ae She - : Be a ee ees atthe — > Ate 7 7ü 7 [7 7—— — — ůůů et Ae REE J * SAYS She | ney Sager, o eee SHE IS ACTRESS \ MRS.

His face flushed frequently when Mr. Kellogg unearthed matters which came as a sur- prise, and he twisted and turned the questions and obvieusly sought to re- spite by repetition. It held true with scarcely an excep- tion that during the five hours that Mr. Rockefeller was under cross-examination he did not give a-direct answer at the first asking of a question. Mr. Kellogg plied Mr. Rockefeller with questions so rapidly that the witness became somewhat rattled. His lawyers saw this and obtained a five-minute ad- journment, during which Mr. Moritz Rosenthal, the Chicago expert on Stand- ard Oil, held a whispered conversation with the “Oil King.”’ Many of Mr. Kellogge’s questions were framed to attack the position of the de- fense that the oii industry was con- stantly menaced by hazards and there- fore could not be expected to abide by the rules of other industries. “The total production of ofl in this country has increased very rapidly for the last 50 years, has it not, until today it is the largest in the history of the world?” Mr.*Kellogg asked. “I should say that today it is the largest, though I have no definite know!- edge in respect to that question,” Mr. Rockefeller replied. Cornered, Evades Answer. “Do you consider a business hazardous that has, since 1882, on an original in- vestment of about $67,000,000, paid divi- \dends of more than $591,000,000, besides having a surplus of $500,000,000?"’ AI don’t consider that the question of the amount of money that as been made determines the question of wheth- er thé business was hazardous or not,” the witness replied. Mr. Rockefeller was led back to the early days of the company, when its profits were increased by rebates, and portions of the contract between Stand- ard Oil and the Pennsylvania Railroad were read to him. He said concerning rebating: “It was nothing more or less than what was represented in the practice of those times in regard to oll and all other freight rates. The man Who could contribute a large regular volume of traffic was able to secure some consider- ation on that account. We sought by this agreement to do just what every shipper was doing, and has been doing since—to make a freight arrangement that was what we ought to have under the circumstances,”’ Only once did Mr. Rockefeller display the buoyancy which had maintained him previously. It was following the noon recess, when he studied a caricature jof himself as drawn by an artist in the courtroom. “T wish I had your talent,”’ said the richest man in the world. “I wish I had yours,” the artist re- “Weil, then, we'll pool our issues,” Mr. Rockefeller laughed and extended his hand to seal the compact.

Boyd, Albert Bachle, SPORTING EDITION UTILITIES BILL POLICEMAN IS MOCKED AS tt DENIES CHARGES Officials Find Food for Mirth in Fowler’s Ordeal Before Board. The spectacle of a bewildered. police- man trying vainly to defend himself on charges of neglect of duty and disobe- dience impressed several high officials of the Police Department as being so excruciatingly funny that they could not refrain from bursting into laugh- \ter. Members of the Police Board failed to see the ‘‘humorous”’ side of the scene, however, and the patrolman was dlis- missed from the force—not because he was found guilty of the charges, but on account of his seemingly mental inca- pacity. Patrolman George F. Fowler of the Dayton Street District, charged with failing to investigate an alleged robbery, pleaded guilty to the accusation and then tried to establish his innocence. Alternately he denied and admitted the charge and finally he said he knew nothing about the case. Dentes He Had Been Drinking. “Are you a drinking man?’ asked Commissioner Jones. ‘I take a glass of beer occasionaily,” was the reply. “Have you been drinking today?’ “No, sir.” With the exception of the interview with Mr. Jones, the policeman’'s state- ments were so vague that the Board de- cided he was not in his normal state of mind, and voted to dismiss him from the force. After Fowler had left the Board room Sergt. O'Meara, who preferred the charges against him, was questioned regarding the policeman’s character. “He's been ar‘ing strangely for the past four months, ” said O’Meara. “In my opinion he has been in a stupor. If I would tel) m to go street he was sure to walk in the oppo- site direction.’’ Commissioner Jones turned to Chief Creecy after O'Meara’s departure and said: “I think charges should be pre- ferred against the Sergeant for not re- porting that) policeman’s condition soon- er."’ While Fowler, who has seven chil- dren, was trying to make a statement to the Board, several uniformed officers of high rank sat back in their chairs and held their | sides from laughter. Turnkey Also Is Dismissed. Turnkey Johh Limerick, North Market Street District, pleaded guilty to a charge of intoxication and was dis- missed from the force.

For the second time in three *months the House of Delegates is confronted with the duty of passing a public utili- ties bill, the Council having finally dis- posed of the measure drawn by Council- man Cram>r Only two votes—those of Councilmen Crunden and Norvell—were cast against the bill when it was put on.its passage in the Council Friday. Crunden at- tempted to amend the bill so as to give the May or the power to select the Public Service Commission contemplat- ed. In this he had the support of Coun- cilman Stix, a Republican, and Coun- cilmen Ewing and Norvell, Democrats. Mr. Crunden declared that to permit the House of Delegates to have a voice in the appsintment of a commission was a breach of precedent and a danger- ous policy. In this Councilman Norvell concurred, addin;; that ‘‘the Republicans would regret having made any such concession.”’ It is understood that the House of Delegates will again insist on G¢om- pensation for the public service com- missioners. The bill just passed con- tains no such provision. Its other feat- tures are that the commission: shall be constituted of five members, three named by the Council and two by the House of Delegates, that they shall be sworn officers of the city, shall serve four years, conduct open investigations of the rates and service of local -utili- ties and that they shall recommend regulative legislation. An appropriation of $25,000 is carried to meet the com- mission’s expenses. HOUSE COMBINE GETS GAS BILL IN SHAPE TO PASS After being helped from a delicate situation by the vote of Delegate Her- man W. Fay of the minority, the com- bine of the House of Delegates has made such progress with the Barnsdal!! natural gas bill that it will be passed next Tuesday. Through the efforts of Delegate Da- vis, another amendment, pledging the grantees to accept the franchise with a stipulation that failure to observe its conditions will forfeit their bond, has been added to the bill. Other amend- ments, changing the word “assigns’’ to “associates” were also included at the instance of the combine. When the combine attempted to recon- sider the vote by which the bill was sent to engrossment a week ago, so that the language could be altered, it was found that a motion to that effect would have to come from the prevailing side—which was the minority. Pries- meyer moved the reconsideration and was declared out of order. Just at the moment that the combine was at a loss for a way out of the parliamentary tan- gle, Fay came to the rescue. He said that, as the bill ought to be uniform in its provisions, he would ask for a re- consideration so that the word “‘succes- sors” might be substituted for “as- signs” wherever necessary. * elegate Wiedmer was absent and Fay'’s kindness to the combine came in very handy. James O. Rodgers and his associates, who also have a bill before the House, have submitted to the Assembly what they declare is a statement to correct errors and RY ae omissions in the re- port which Sanderson, Supervisor of City Lighting, submitted to the Coun- cll a week ago.

PAINTER OFFERED AS SACRIFICE * = Advises Missouri Democrats to Pass Up Contest for Lieu- tenant-Governorship. — — FEARS FOR OWN OFFICE Senator Would Seat Gmelich in Order to Enhance His Own Chances. Having shed crocodile tears over Cowherd’s defeat, Senator Stone is coun- seling the Democratic party of Missou- ri to forfeit the office of Lieutenant- Governor, although W. R. Painter, the Democratic candidate, insists he is elected by 35 plurality. Jacob F. Gmelich, Republican candi- date, according to Secretary of State Swanger, has defeated Painter by a plu- rality of 30 votes. Swanger has just completed an official tabulation of the returns from each of the 114 counties of the State, including the city of St. Louis. In a statement given out at Jefferson City, where the official count was made under the auspices of the Repub- lican Secretary of State, Mr. Painter asserts the Swanger figures do not in- clude the amended returns from Au- drain, Chariton, Dunklin, Lincoln, Linn, Webster and Worth. All of the other Democratic candi- dates for the minor State offices have been eletted by safe pluralities. Legislature Must Decide. Mr. Swanger is not empowered to is- sue a certificate of election to the suc- cessful candidate ‘for Lieutenant-Gov- ernor, this matter resting solely with the General» Assembly. This body can decide the: Lieutenant- Governorship without regard to the courts, the legislative action being final and not subject to judicial review. The General Assembly is Democratic by the narrow margin of seven votes. While the Senate is Democratic by 12, the House is Republican by 5. Several contests, however, are to be instituted by the Republicans and this may change the complexion of the General Assem- bly. Politicians say that naturally a Dem- ocratic Assembly would be. disposed to }’ seat the Democratic candidate for Lieutenant-Governor and vice versa in tne case of a Republican Legislature. Stone Thinks Only of Se Foreseeing this danger and fearing that it may bring about his own defeat, Senator William J. Stone has appealed to his Democratic friends to allow the contest for Lieutenant-Governor to go by the boards. e It is more important, Senator Stone thinks, that he should be re-elected to the United States Senate than that Mr. Painter serve as president of the Mis- souri Senate. “Why should either Gmelich or Painter contest?’’ Stone asks. “There has been no evidence of fraud offered. If Gmelich has a plurality of one vote he should be seated, and if Painter has a plurality Of one vote he should get the office.’’ Democratic leaders are indignant over Stone’s attitude. One of them declared Saturday that it is simply another proof of the Senator’s political selfishness. GIRL, 13, FIRST ACCUSES MAN, THEN DENIES STORY Another Witness Accuses Prisoner’s Nephew of Coaching Her; He Is Arrested. Charles E. Fee of East St. Louis has been cited to appear before Judge Moore in the Circuit Court at Belleville Tues- day to show cause why he should not be punished for contempt of court in prompting Sadie Barth, 13 years old, before she went on the witness stand against George Caswell, charged with attacking several little girls. On the stand she said a man had spoken to her just before she began to testify, and she pointed out Fee, who is Caswell’s nephew. He was arrested on a capias issued by Judge Moore and released under a $500 bond pending his hearing. Jennie McNamara, 13 years old, one of the girls Caswet!’ is charged with having attacked, denied everything on the witness stand after having given damaging testimony against him to the grand jury. She was arrested on the charge of perjury. Had Lion for Dinner. From the New York American.. A man-eating lion from Tsavo (at least so the menu said) was the cen- terpiece of the dinner of the Canadian Camp. Everything played up to the lion .and.back again. Those who ate the man-eater declared the flavor was fine, but the meat rough. There were several opinions expressed that the beast had been too great an athlete in his day and that a less muscular speci- men, after a few years of idleness and travel with a first-class circus, would be preferable. There were also lily bulbs, and potatoes from Moose Camp. Sax and- OWENSVILLE, Ind., Nov. 21.—Indi- ana will soon be a ratless State if J. R. Strickland of this town has his way. He wants to have a day set on which all loyal and patriotic titizens will take their bludgeons in hand and go forth to kill rats. If this ts done, he figures that the farmers will save enough grain, now consumed by the rats, to pay their. tax~- és. And Strickland will be hailed as the savior of his State. He has-drawn up a bill which is to be introduced in the Legislature. It pro- vides for a State-wide rat-killing day, once a year. . As it is now the farmers devote a day a year to killing rats, but they are driven from one farm to another. Mr. Strickland thinks that if everybody ob- served the same rat-killing day, not a Strickland has been making 4 study of rats and is-looked upon as the rat expert of his part of the State. He has found that on an average Indiana farm: the rats eat about as much as the children, He reasons that if the rats are destroyed the children will have twice as good a chance to grow fat and reflect glory and honor on the Common- wealth. Rat experts who have viewed the ro- dent question from a national stand- point estimate that the rats did $100,- 000,000 damage in the country last year. That would make Indiana's loss about $3,500,000, or over a dollar per capita. Mr. Strickland has hopes that other states will follow the lead of Indiana and that some day there will be a na- tional rat day that will rival the Fourth of July. guilty rat would escape. TIME OF FIRE A STRONG. POINT OR LAMPHERE - Gunness Home Said to Have Been Burning Before Ac- cused Man Left Lodgings. LAPORTE, Ind., Nov. 21.—The dark cloud which has been hanging over the head of Ray Lamphere, on trial for ‘the murder of ‘Mrs. Belle Gun- ness and her three children, since the Camaging testimony of Sheriff-elect eR that Lamphere. had practic- ally made a verbal confession of the arson of April 28, today began to lift as the case of the defense progressed. Attorney Worden first produced testimony that the fire was burning at 3:05 o’clock in the morning, 20 minutes before: Laniphere is supposed to have left hits room at the house of Elizabeth Smith. the negress. Dr. Wasser, a local dentist, has testified that the teeth found in the ruins of the fire and supposed to be the crown work of Mrs. Gunness’ mouth could not have been subjected to the terrific heat of the fire. This tends to disprove the State’s conten- tion that Mrs. Gunness is dead. The famous trunk removed from the Gunness “house of mystery’ by Prose- cutor Smith during the exciting period following the fire was exhibited to the jury today. This trunk was the prop- erty of Ray Lamphere and contained unimportant letters, a few soiled shirts and several hair brushes. In an attempt to impeach the testi- mony of Sheriff Smutzer to the effect that he found a mattress under the adult female body, Charles. Russell, a prominent local manufacturer, + was called to the. standi!i He reported this conversation with Sheriff Smutzer: “Did you say, Sheriff, there was a mattress under the body?’ ‘“‘No, Mr. Russell. There Was no mat- tress beneath the body.” AMBASSADOR 10 AUSTRIA IS ANNOYED BY A NEWSPAPER Diplomat Francis. Declines to Dis- cuss Charge Phat He Is Un- popular in Vienna. VIENNA, Nov. 21.—American Ambas- sador Charles S. Francis returned today from his vacation and his attention was at once called to the Austrian newspa- per article characterizing him as the most unpopular man who has ever occu- pied the post of Ambassador and re- marking on his unpretentious quarters and his faiiure to adequately return Viennese hospitality. “I was sent here as a diplomat and not to enter Into any controversies,”’ he said in comment. “I cannot discuss the matter at all.” Friends of the Ambassador say, how- ever, that he is greatly annoyed that such an exceedingly disagreeable inci- dent should occur, coming as it did, just before the end of his mission here. It would be useless, however, for him to take steps against the newspaper. It would attempt to prove the truth of the article, and if successful, would get -off scot free. HATTIE ARMY MOBILIZING 10 FIGHT REBELS News of Encounter Between Loyal Forces:and Insurgents" ~Is Expected Hourly. PORT AU PRINCE, Hayti, Nov. 21.— With most of the Haitien army mobil- ized and troops pouring into the province of Les Cayes from every side, news of an encounter between the loyal forces under Gen. Celestin and Gen. Leconte and the insurgents under Gen. Antoine Simon is momentarily expected. - While the Government officials declare that there fs no real danger of the revolution- ary movement becoming general, and in- sist that Gen. Simon's forces are meager and poorly armed, those best informed on the situation fear that the. entire island is to be — plunged into war- | fare. ; The report md been received that Gen. Faverolles and the loyal forces tn the Les Cayes district have surrendered to Gen. Simon and that Les Cayes City is in the hands of the rebels. The land telegraph lines have been cut by the revolutionaries and President Nord Alexis is depending on mounted couriers for news from the front. Gen. Simon is very popular in the South, where he has been Governor for 20 years, and experts declare that he will have the ardent support and backing of the entire populace in a contest against the presidential control. Nord Alexis deposed him, according to governmentafr officials, because he refused to come to this city to “confer’’ regarding condi- tions in the South. - Simon's friends declare that the order to report here was for the purpose of getting him out of his province in order that he Might bé arrested and shot as a conspirator against the Government. Reports are’ current that the exiles. of the last ill-fated revolution who took refuge in Jamaica and St. Thomas are now endeavoring to land on the southern coast and join Gen. Simon. In order to prevent this, the gunboats Nord Alexis, Vertiere and Centenaire have been sent to patrol the coast, while extra comple- ments of soldiers are to be landed in Les Cayes to ald in the operations there.

Lord Minto re- ceived reports today from officials all aver the coun‘:y that show the situa- tion to be steadily growing worse, y-t he is holding back in the hope that some other course besides martial law will be found effective. Minto has promised the free use of troops in suppressing riots, but his ad- visers say this measure alone is wholly inadequate. They. say one of the im- perative needs is a change in the law that will permit the. shooting of all those found guilty of fomenting agita- tion and insurrection. All the thousands of malcontents that now swarm through India are fully armed. If is not possible to rely on more than 60 per cent of the native troops owing to the disaffection that bas reached their ranks. In addition to this the English forces are also weak by reason of tne recent drafting of many unseasoned men from England. .

Bob’s dead and everybody in and around East Alton is giad of it. Yet it was very nice of him to die the way he did, because if he hadn't there would have been nobody left within a radius of a mile or more to be either glad or sorry. Bob left no family on whom the Car- negie Hero Fund Commission might pin a medal or settle an annuity. There came mighty near being a big blow-off when he passed away, though. Bob was a big mule used in hauling cars of high explosives at the works of the Equitable Powder Co. at East Alton. With 4000 pounds of dynamite hitched on behind him, hé ran away Friday afternoon.

EXPORTS ARE STOPPED Thousands of Animals De- Stroyed—Children Said to Have Been Infected. DANVILLE, Pa., Nov. 21.—A report received at, the Federal and State head- quarters established here by officials in- vestigating the apthous fever (foot and mouth disease) among cattle, says that the veterinarians discovered 3 well de- fined cases of the disease among cattle in Montgomery County in the vicinity of Norristown. The disease was traced to a carload of 22 animals shipped into Montgomery County from Buffalo. Each one of these was found-and will be killed. More than 1000 cows have been killed, besides many swine. The report that five children in this vicinity are victims of the disease is discounted ‘by the statement of Dr. Fox of the State Health. Department, who came here from Harrisburg. He ex- amined the children, who are convales- cent, and says that it is doubtful if they ever had the disease. Business Stopped in Buffalo. BUFFALO, N. Y., Nov. 21.—Business at the stockyards here was completely |tied up when at a meeting of the East Buffalo Livestock Association last night the members adopted a resolution call- ing on the railroads to cancel all orders for shipments of cattle or swine to or through Buffalo. The association for- mally approved the stringent measures of quarantine used by Chief Melvin of Washington and Commissioner Pearson of the State Department of Agricul- ture. Two cases of foot and mouth disease found found today on a Niagara County farm and one infected herd in Erie County was destroyed. It is estimated that the total loss to the railroads, cat- themen and others because of the quar- antine will be in excess of $40,000 a week. Exports Are Stopped. NEW YORK, Nov. 21.—Shipments. to foreign ports from New York and Phil- adelphia were brought’ to’ an abrupt close yesterday by the cattle quarantine established in this State and in Penn- sylvania. .The quarantine does not af- fect ports outside, except as to cattle from the two states affected by the ruling. Western cattle may still be shipped abroad from either Boston or Baltimore. Even Canadian cattle received at New York or Philadelphia in bond cannot be reshipped to England, and dealers with such consignments on hand will be forced to send them back, because the duty on cattle makes their use locally prohibitive. ** Children Said to to Be Infected, WASHINGTON, . Nov. 21. por ae results following the outbreak of a con- tagious foot and mouth disease in: New York and Philadelphia, causing those states to be quarantined against inter- state shipments of cattle, etc., .are shown in advices which reached Secre- tary of Agriculture, Wilson, stating that four children in Danville, Pa., had con- tracted the disease. A rigid investigation is in pragress to determine whether others have become similarly affected. The officials believe that the spread of the contagion will be checked, although admitting that the situation is grave.

His tour with the orchestra last season, from the Atlantic to the Pacific, ‘eet a new mark for musieal enterprise. His Wagner lecture recitals have been given in all the principal cities and have acquainted the public with the master’s epochal music-dramas as no other agen- cy could have. Intensely sympathetic toward modern cant compositions of the living. com- posers of all nations, it was natural that he should give his effort to bring the musical people of the United States to understand the genius of Claude-Achille Debussy as it flowers in the music drama of ‘“Pelleas and Melisande,”’ which is unquestionably the most salient accomplishment in opera writing of this day. : Ile gave two lecture recitals on this subject at the Lyceum Theater, New York, last season, beforé great audi- ences and he has been persuaded to take time early in the présent season to visit a few other cities for the purpose of ex- plaining and uatretiog this strangely beautiful work.

AND SMES MAN - Athletics ——— Baseman Rescues Secretary From Bruin. * FAST THROW ENDS HUG Thrilling Experience of Play- ers in Wild Maine Woods. “PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 21.—Danny Murphy, the Athletic American League star, has stepped into the limelight as @ real hero since his return from a re- cent shooting trip in the Maine woods. As he was stalking a moose one day _ 4n the forest primeval Murphy was hor- sified to find John D. Shibe, the Ath- letics’ secretary and assistant treasurer, “Jocked in the fierce embrace of a bear. > #£9§hibe, who is a son of Ben Shibe, the Athletics’ veteran president, had accom- _ panied Danny, Eddie Plank, Jack Coombs and other ball tossers upon an “fnvasion of Maine, and on the day of thrilling encounter with Mr. Bruin, , he had wandered away from the party. ’ .

IS HERE TO LECTURE Cleopatra Not Beautiful, Only Clever; Antony Not in ~ Lové—Ambitious. BOSTON, Nov. 21L—Sig. Guglielmo Ferrero, the historian who pokes holes in ancient history, is here. He is going to stay long enough to tell the students of a number of universities all about the fakes of the histories. He will tell them, among other things, that Cleopatma was not a beautiful wom- an nor even a fascinating woman, and that she was not dead in love with Marc Antony and Marc was not. greatly struck on Cleopatra. The yarn about their love affair is just one of the many instances of ex- aggerations that mar the pages of his- tory, according to Sig. Ferrero. “The history of Rome as it has been presented to us for years has been full of exaggerations,”’ says he. “For instance, the romance of Antony and Cleopatra as presented to us has very likely been far from the truth. That is the opinion I have drawn from my researches. Cleopatra was a clever but not a beautiful woman. The rela- tions of the two was a romance of poli- tics more than a romance of love. The alliance was political and love had very little to do with it. “History is full of exaggeration. The story of Thermopylae is an exaggera- tion. Those who succeed are eulogized beyond their deserts and those who fail are dragged through the mire more than they deserve. Shakspeare’s story of Brutus is well pictured. He took his story from Plutarch. Plutarch’s Brutus was one of the bert things he ever wrote. His information came from the memoirs of Messala Corvinus, who knew Brutus thoroughly. But Antony is not accurately portrayed in Shakspeare. “I belleve that Caesar represented an important movement in the tranforma- tion of Rome. He was a democrat and fought plutocracy. In his fight he was obliged to become a revolutionist.”’ Much History’ Is Legend, Sig. Ferrero is the author of “The Greatness and Decline of Rome,” which is not complete. His iconoclastic method is revealed in the volumes that have ap- peared. He is skeptical about many stories that have adorned the pages of historians in the past. In fact, he in- sists that many of the stories are le- gends, that a great part of ancient his- tory is legend. — The historian is 6 feet 4 inches tall. His wife, who isea daughter of Cesare Lombroso, the Italian criminologist, can hardly reach his shoulder. To the ro- mance of his life is due largely his great work on Rome, for he was long a stu- dent of Lombroso, and studied psycholo- gy long before he thought of history. He has written several works on crim- inology which have been widely read. When he became interested in Roman history, which was not very long ago, for he igs only 37 years old, he carried the scientific methods he had acquired in Lombroso’s laboratory into the study. The result has surprised the world. He has written ancient history’on the the- ory that-human nature 2000 years ago was much like it is today. -S@ he pro- duced a work which has startled those who have worshipped Gibbon and Mommsen. He has been called sensa- tional, and it was said that he had car- ried into the sacred precincts of ancient history the methods of a yellow jour- nalist. Anyway, many of the beautiful or tragic stories of ancient history have been dissolved in his psychological lab- oratory. Tammany Reflects Ancient Rome. He is delivering his first series of lectures at the @.owell Institute. After lecturing at Harvard he will go to Washington, on the invitation of Presi- dent Roosevelt, for a visit at the White House. In Boston he is the guest of “William Roscoe Thayer. Sig. Ferrero’s comparison of the po- litical organization of Caesar and Clo- dius, the tribune, and Tammy Hall, and his likening of Bryan to Cataline, have attracted wide attention in Ameri- ca. “Where did I get the idea? I was reading in an American or English re- view an account of the activities of Tammany and the details of ifs organi- zation,” said Sig. Ferrero. “The similarity of their methods was so marked that it became one of the most striking examples of the recurring fact in history that there is not much ijnew. There was in Rome a district or- ganization, the captain of which. used its beneficences to recruit the electorate for political purposes. How does that differ from your district organizations of the Tammany leaders?” In comparing Catiline to W. J. Bryan, the says: “Abandoned by Crassus, Catiline o3 @ jrealized that he would have to help Roosevelt the Caesar. ‘Bryan the C g filine of Today, Says M odern-Ancient Historian Italian — Not Dazzled * LLVO PED eS ————_ 4 ©OOTOOCOOSOGOOOOOOYOD Handwriting Children’s Handwriting The announcement of the prize > DOPOD OSOO © OOOH HHHHH HHH HOSS WING to the enormous number of entrants in the School has been unable to complete its task of finding the prize win- ners in time for publication in the next Sunday Post-Dispatch. avoidably postponed, but will positively appear in - Next Wednesday’s Post-Dispatch OO OOOO OSOOOOOS99 Prize Awards Contest, the Board of Judges winners’ names is therefore un- OOO OOOO TO HHO CHD OO © OOO OOOOOOOOOOO9S himself if he wanted to succeed; he not only sought friends and backers among men who were in debt and cor- rupt and among the dissipated young nobles, but he sought to obtain a great, popularity among the middle classes and among the common people of all Italy, agitating as an electoral program in that debt-laden Italy the question of the abolition of debts. The program was boldly revolutionary, but from _ this there is no need to imagine that Cati- line, at least at this time, was plotting an armed: insurrection. He was only seeking to arouse the people with a proposal which appeared wicked to the capitalists and the creditors, but for which the minds of the greater number were not unprepared, and, except.in the more brutal method, he was acting in a manner no different from.a Socialist deputy of today who promises his elec-. tors a reduction of 2 per cent in their rent, or from Bryan, the &Democratic candidate in a recent election’ in the United States, who urged that debts which had been contracted in gold should be paid in silver.” Roosevelt and Caesar Compared. And in drawing a comparison between Roosevelt and Julius Caesar, hé says: “President Roosevelt finds himself be- tween the old smerican tradition, full of vigor and of Puritan austerity, and the spirit of new America-exactly in the same situation in which Augustus found himself, between the old Roman —— and the invading Oriental- “The American President has let slip no opportunity of recalling to his fel- low-citizens, too busy in earning money and in enjoying themselves, the rugged and stern duties to be fulfilled toward the race and toward society. “He has, like Augustus, repeated to them in a thousand ways, by word and by example, that a nation is cast down as soon as it is no longer ready for war; that is to say, for the gravest and ae difficult sacrifices for the common 00 “He has, like Augustus, tried to op- pose to the fabulous luxury of the great pluto¢rats and their wives the decorous simplicity of his life and the modest manners of his lady.

But there is. Caffeine, the drug in coffee, causes undue action of the heart which results in palpitation and weak- ness. These often cause chronic heart trouble which may, shorten life. “Palpitation, nervousness, insomnia and other coffee symptoms, are the danger signals nature throws out to the coffee drinker. While yet an infant on my mother’s knee,” writes 9 Penna, lady, “she gave me sips of coffee.

DICKEY HAS BIG DEFICIT State Committee Chairman Appeals for Funds to Re- Canvass Missouri Returns. The Republican City Committee in ‘the recent campaign spent $215 for automo- bile rides without once being arrested for exceeding the speed limit, and pur- chased $350 worth of big noise in the shape of bombs to attract voters to ward and precinct meetings. It cost Col. R. C. Kerens $1000 to think that the city machine vote would as- sure his nomination for the Senate, and Seebert G. Jones, successful candidate for Circuit Attorney, was the next lar- gest individual contributor, his addition to the fund being $600. The official report of Treasurer Kiel will show that the City Committee ex- pended $31,000 to elect its ticket. On this basis each vote cast cost 40 cents. There is a balance of $1700 for use in next spring’s campaign. It cost the committee $2865 to ““enter- tain” Taft at the Coliseum and $6000 to give a banquet there in Hadley’s honor after the election. On rogue ate day the committee spent and on election day $6348 to ‘“‘get out the vote.” The National Re- publican Committee put $5500 into the city fund. Howe Gave $100; Sager $50. Jeptha D. Howe's personal contribu- tion was $100 and Circuit Attorney Sa- ger’s was $50. Chairman Dickey of the State Com- mittee has sent out an appeal for addi- tional funds with which to make a re- canvass of the vote for State offices where the results were so close as to indicate the necessity of contests. He says that the committee is ‘‘in the red” about $6000, which means that there is a red ink entry in the ledger showing a deficit of that amount. One of Dickey’s letters was sent, by mistake, to Henry F. Stapel, who ‘was one of the Democratic candidates for the gubernatorial nomination. Stapel has made public his answer in which he declines to help make up the deficit and resents the imputation that he is a Republican. Hobo Is a Baremeter, ‘ From the Kansas City Star.

— ñ THE GOVERNOR AND THE CITY. Evidently the people in St. Louis who have re— ’ eeived information to the effect that Governor- elect Hadley’s home-rule-for-cities plan means a wide-open town here are doomed to disappoint- ment. Mr. Hadley discussed this matter freely with a representative of the Post-Dispatch and made it clear that he is under no pledges to the brewing and liquor interests. “This much I will say definitely,” remarked Mr. Hadley, “and that is that no home-rule pro- position will be enacted that does not provide proper methods for the enforcement of the laws.” “At the request of Gov. Folk, my office,” he continued, “has enforcd the laws regulating dramshops in St. Louis County, and that which I have accomplished there as Attorney-General I ean accomplish as Governor in the large cities of the State. “T am going to make my appointments inde- pendently of any interest,” he said. “M¥ infor- mation is that 21 out of 22 breweries supported Mr. Cowherd, but there will be no reprisals on that account. Mr. Stifel is a brewer and he is the only one, so far as I can learn, who gave me his support, but he has been a Republican all his life.” These and a few dimer illuminating observations on men, laws and public decency would seem to indicate that the report current in St. Louis that the bad old times are to be restored here after Mr. Hadley’s inauguration must Have had its origin in the brain of, some too hilarious party worker. Mr. Hadley’s wordjis good,.and he will ‘be eee not by prophecies but by results. ‘= = = ~~ = RIGHT WINS ‘IN SPITE OF WRONG. The capitulation of the Tobacco Trust in Ken- _~ aaitucky, where, after three years of war, it has agreed upon a@ fair price to growers, is a momen- tous incident marking an advancement in what may be called our industrial ethics. It vindicates the inherent principle of right in American prog- ress and tends better to establish the standard of fair. dealing between man and man. It is the most signal overthrow of great trust oppression that the times have witnessed, and it has been accomplished by a niovement in its nature lawful, in its nature moral, which, though by. incidents of lawlessness and abuse, could not be wholly spoiled or destroyed by them. There was a greater power in the 1g ful or- ganization of the growers than in the violence of * the night riders, and the latter probably retarded rather than forwarded ultimate victory.

TOM L. JOHNSON. | ’ There is something cloudy about the report of ‘Tom Johnson’s bankruptcy. We are informed that he is “broke,” but immediately Tom says his enemies are after him and will break him if they can, and he adds that his Euclid avenue home belongs to his wife and he hopes to save an automobile. . During bis whole public life Tom Johnson has taken the unpopular side of popular questions. ee

— Beginning with the Single Tax, he has advocated — ree trade, municipal ownership, the initiative and referendum and other new projects of specu- “ative politicians. But while proclaiming these th; altruistic doctrines he has on the practical side " always looke! out for number one and never omitted to lay in a good thing for Tom Johnson _ when’ the plunder of specia] privilege was being .@iptributed.

Senatorial primaries have no legal force any- where, and, being merely advisory, no one can be quite sure of their value until the last man who has power to act upon the question has been heard from. Trouble has resulted in most of the states in which they have been tried. Kentacky, with a Democratic Legislature, elected a Repub- lican over the man who carried the Democratic primaries. In Oregon a Republican Legislature ig seeking ways and means of defeating the Demo- crat who was chosen by the people for Senator. In Illinois, where several Republicans competed for the direct nomination, there are threats that While the element of good faith must be de- pended upon in matters of this kind, it is to be remembered that every member of the Legisla- ture must, in the last analysis, answer to his own conscience and to his constituents for his vote. The Democratic majority on joint ballot in Mis- souri is small and it may be wiped out. If it should be retained it might easily appear that some of its members would.find reasons satisfac- tory to themselves for disregarding the pri- mary. In questions of conscience and morals many things are to be taken into consideration. If Mr. Stone shall fail to receive his full party vote in the Legislature it will be because he and his methods present a pretty serious problem to some men. '

WHAT WILLIAM AND THEODORE DID. The Century interview with the Kaiser, sup- pressed by official zeal, has leaked out. Its im- portance to Americans lies in the revelation of a complete understanding between the German Emperor and President Roosevelt, who “intend to divide the East against itself by becoming the recognized friends of China.” Negotiations along these lines are said to be prosperously under way. This means that the two “rulers” will back up China against Japan and so protect the Western world against the yellow peril. William and Theodore have a “complete under- standing,” but the news from Germany goes to show that the German people may have some- thing to say about it. Moreover, the President of the United States is not authorized to enter into any binding agreemeny or treaty with any other “ruler.” The revelations in the interview give an inkling of the progress made in some heads of the idea that personal authority in our Government is something more than a noisy joke. There is no reason to believe that this “understanding’’ was not taken seriously by both parties to it, although it cannot but produce a smile among Americans outside the Tennis Court. " The American “Emperor” is soon to retire to private life, but the German potentate will not hear the last of his indiscretions for many a day La he — =. _ REFERENDUMING IN MISSOURI. Although some other proposed amendments to the State Constitution of far more value were defeated, the one providing for the initiative and referendum appears to have been adopted by a substantial majority. Under it 8 per eent of the voters in at least two-thirds of the congressional districts can require the Legislature to submit any question to the people and 5 per cent of the voters in at least two-thirds of the congres- sional] districts can compel the submission to the people of any act of the Legislature to be af- firmed or rejected. As there is an active and noisy element which believes that the representative system is a fail- ure, it is probable that for.some time to come this novelty will-be employed to the fullest extent. If these people have their way about it we shall be petitioning and voting without much interru- tion except for sleep and meals, and questions of government and administration are likely to be- come more confused and confusing than they are now. After a season we shall weary of the fad, as others have done, and then whatever virtue it may have will assert itself. In Switzerland, which is the home of the ini- tiative and referendum, the people rarely resort to either of them, but the system is believed to be of value as a check upon legislation. Know- ing that extravagant, unjust or corrupt measures may be referred to the people for judgment, the interests that might propose them are inclined to be circumspect. Representatives are also re- sponsive to the public will, for they understand very well that if they fail to act in accordance therewith the initiative can be brought to bear upon them. If the people of Missouri can be persuaded to use this new weapon sparingly and only in cases of importance and necessity it will serve to re- strain legislative error and it may be a spurt to legislative activity in the public interest. The tenth man to be convicted and sent to the Penitentiary for fraudulent voting at the August primaries was warned before he voted of what would i i him, but he persisted in his im- personation another and cast his ballot. It would have been a great pity to deprive such a person of the privilege of going to prison. His heart was set on it, evidently. = = — In the course of his testimony Mr. Rockefeller said that the oil. business involved great risks, one of them being the probability of fire.

i Ae ie rTTrTlUce LETTERS FROM - THE ‘PEOPLE The —— Market. To the Editor of ‘the Post-Dispatch. I would suggest the Business Men's League urge the $25,000 per year provided for the Immigration Commission be used to relieve some of the hungry people in the State now who have been struck by Roosevelt’s and Taft's prosperity, instead of bringing in more persons to compete with the now overcrowd- ed labor market. O. E. J.

Such Jokers Should Bo Jailed. To the Fditor of the Post-Dispatch This town has a lot of pin-headed residents who think a newly married couple is a fine subject for a joke. That may be true, but when an advertisement is inserted in a newspaper that calls 4 or 50 hungry men to walk many blocks looking for a job, the par- ticular ‘‘joker’’ should be jailed. I walked three miles the other morning in search of a job’only to learn If I and the other vic- tims of this merry jest could have got hold of him he would have been sent to a hospital instead of to Jail, though that is where he belongs. VICTIM. Reckless Cross-Examinations. To the Editor of thw Post-Dispatch. The remarks of “H. W.” in your letter column on the shooting of Lawyer Heney were just and proper. There are too many cases where ambitious lawyers cannot resist the temptation to produce dramatic ‘scenes to advance their personal interest, and wit! no regard for the torture or injury of their helpless victims—such as the barbarous torture of Evelyn Thaw by Jerome. The judges are blamable for per- wonder is that the affenders are not oftener attacked by the injured victims or their friends. JOSEPH O’GRADY. An Odorous Comparison. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. One of our railroads has issued a placard designed to advertise its St. Louis-Chicago train service, and bearing pictures of the St. Louis river front, squalid and dingy, and of the magnificent Lake Front of Chicago. Why this odious pictorial comparison? Every city has sections of which it is not proud, and by common consent the river front is one of ours: What would Chicago say to pictures comparing the Chicago River’s banks with one of the beauti- ful ‘‘places’” of the West End of St. Louis? It is no defense of this railroad’s action to say that we ought to improve the river front. When we have done so, it will be time enough to picture it to the traveling public in the manner this advertisement has done. Oo. PB. The Nurse’s Bill. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Mr. Editor, your editorial was timely. Why should the nurses want a bill passed at Jefferson City if it is not to bring discredit to a great many in a useful occupation and who are nurses by instinct? A nurse is not made by a few lectures. She inherits this from mother nature. Again, the licensed nurse demands from $25 to $3 a week for her services, imposing financial burdens upon people of moderate income, which they are unable to bear. But the worst feature of it all is, they introduce into the sickroom a princi- ple which is not only dangerous to the patient, but humiliating to the attending physician. State registra- tion means that the nurse will have the same authori- ty in the sickroom as the doctor. This can't and must not be tolerated, And the nurse whe has the skill and willingness to carry out the doctor’s orders must, not be interfered with, no matter how or where she gained her knowledge. NEXT. The Garnisheeing of Poor Men’s Wages. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch, As a friend of the poor man, I would call your at- tention to a law put on the statute books some years ago by a party that always,resolutes in its con- ventions about being the poor man’s friend. I mean the 10 per cent garnishee of a man’s salary. If you will investigate the workings of that law you will find it has been the cause of more suffering and sui- cides than any other cause. It has got so business firms do not want to hire men who are in debt. They do not want to be annoyed by going to court with their books, and the result is the poor man who has been out of a job and had sickness in his family loses a chance to earn a living for himself and family. The law should be repealed or amended so a man with a family should have as much as $100 a month exempt and a single man as much as $50 a month exempt. I know it cost several thousand dollars to get this law. And the blackmailing agencies that use constables’ blanks to scare the poor unfortunates 8° they rush off and mortgage their only bed to the money sharks. If it was not for the poor people’s foolish pride they could raise such a storm that the next Legislature would repeal that garnishee law and pass laws that would drive the money sharks and blackmalling agencies out of the State. NORTH ST. LOUIS. Wellston. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Referring to the proposed incorporation of Weliston and replying to “‘Wellston Signer,’ beg to say that I do not believe that any sane man would object to our district being taken into the city of St. Louis, if such a thing could be accomplished, but if the city of St. Louis was to start today a movement to extend its limits, it could not be accomplished under five years. The district of Weliston has a.taxable value of over $2.500,000, <A levy of M cents on the $100.0 would bring to the City Treasury $12,600. Other sources from which revenues can be obtained without any great burden to the citizen would undoubtedly swell this amount to $22,000. With this we could have city government, including the Mayor, City Council (composed of eight members), Street Commissioners, sanitary officer, City Attorney and three marshals, per: “Molly: I should think Mrs. Roosevelt A WEST END CURIOSITY 4

Like all the churches, : the Second Baptist was “half slave and half free.” The sympathizers with the South were especially sensitive, and the least inclination to abolition in the pulpit was usually followed by a walkout upon the part of many of the best members. Dr. Anderson refrained from committing his pulpit until he could no longer contain himself. He, therefore, launched into 4 moderate appeal for the preservation of the Union. His congregation was pale with excitement, and as he proceeded he became especially conscious of the presence of a big dark man in one of the front pews.

Andrus, the guard, is short of work and hardly over the effects of blood poisoning. Hobbs, the tackle, is pounds over weight, and very seriously handicapped by a twisted ankle. In the back field Wheaton has had a bad knee all the season and has been of little service to the team. As a comparison of the condition of the two teams, then Burr of Harvard is the only man she has who causes her any trouble,, while Yale has four men in the line and one in the back field who are in no sense in good physical condition for a su- preme struggle. ’s Kicking Is Badly Needed _ By the Harvard Team in the Game e kicking game, if “Surr plays, ; will be even. Coy and Surr * ‘ate of equal ability in this depart- nt, and if there should develop dur- f the afternoon no other features, the between these two will be a great pat.

He makes up his mind what his policf is and sticks to it, @ it is almost certain that if he starts in ooh game today with his mind made ) to stick it out; he will be there when 4 the ‘whistle ends the game.

He holds all plays inside him and sake them up when jp there. He 1s * looks are deceptive, for he has | a student of the game. His ability is the result of hard, conscientious work,, and due in no part to any excessive physical strength. Goebel is the strong man of both lines. He has strength enough to charge back the whole of Harvard's cen- ter trio. Like most men of excessive strength, his best efforts are hard to arouse. In the Princeton game -it took the whole first half to do it. But the ter- rific manner in which he opened holes in the second half showed the real. Goe- bel. Today he is determined to be on the jump from the beginning. His use- fulness is not of the allround nature of fish's, for the latter can take a pass or work down the field for an onside kick. Harvard, then, has the best tackle and Yale the best guard. Andrus, the other Yale guard, has not done justice to him- self this season. This afternoon he meets Hoar, and anything he has on Hoar will be acquired only by Herculean efforts. If Burr was in good shape, despite Goebel’s power, the Harvard guards would, be fully as strong as Yale’s; as it is, the Yale men in this position have an advantage. At tackles Hobb’s injury and his lack of practice prevents him from doing what might be reasonably expected. Brides, the other Yale tackle, is a dark horse. He improved—in fact, you may say that he learned, the position in the Princeton game. He showed possibili- ties and may make them actualities this afternoon. By reason of Fish’s excep- tional ability Harvard is decidedly the better team in this position, which is now the keystone in the defensive power of both teams, and you may therefore be sure that Harvard is harder to gain ground on than is Yale. yards Ends Likely to Be Factor if Crimson Is Finally the Victor A has two strong, well-condi- , Neither of them is a star, superiority does not throw the balahce of power in favor of Yale.

They’re here in thousands and tens of thousands—the Harvard rooters. A Harvard student seriously informed me @ moment ago that there’s no one left in Cambridge but a night watchman and two blind men, who cut it out be- cause they couldn’t see the game any- way and didn’t enjoy noise. Anyone who doesn’t enjoy noise will do well to stay away from New éHaven today. It’s a cross between 47 “boiler factories running overtime on a Taft schedule and a fleet of battleships blowing joy music on their sirens. When the inventors of the English language wrote a dictionary and put the word “Noise” in it, they thought they had covered the situation, but we need a new one—something that ‘starts with. a syllable sounding like the Flat- iron Building falling down on a cellar full of tin dishpans. There .is some color here, too. It’s a safe betting proposition that all the blue and crimson flags, banners, pennants, ribbons, bunting and toy balloons in America are on New Haven’s streets. Every house in town is a waving forest of blue flags. The streets are flowing rivers of blue and crimson harmonious- ly mingled. Hotels Overflowed. So many people came in last night that the hotels overflowed and all the little towns around New Haven were packed, even Hartford, Waterbury and Meriden. A millionaire couldn't have bought a room in a hotel. Outside each cafe and restaurant was a struggling breadline a block long waiting for a chance to reach a.table and grab a chicken wing and a piece of mince pie. I've seen many a football day,in this old college town, but nothing like this before. Harvard has sent a record throng. And wandering about through the crowd, I notice a great undertone of Harvard confidence. At last Harvard feels sure, ripping, roaring, betting sure of winning the great game. It’s just seven years since Old’ Eli has had a chance to tweak the Bulldog's tall. Harvard won a game in 1901, by a score of 22 to 0. Since that game—no red- jerseyed player has ever crossed a Yale goal line. Harvard has never even But it’s different now. The Cam- bridge boys have put out the greatest team Harvard ever knew.

John is play the game—play at top speed and still have something left for a grand spu n the second half. Haughton is a great coach. He has drilled the game into the very marrow of every man on the Crimson team. And this year the enthusiasm of ‘the Harvard student body—only a thing of recent growth—has become overwhelm- ing. A team feels the’ backing of its fellows. There is something electric in the roar of the college song or a college cheer when the right spirit is in the grandstands. Yale isn’t quite so sure, although the Blue expects to win as a matter of course. Yale has the habit, and counts upon its being hard to break. Coy will play at his old position back of the line. That’s one thing that cheers the Blue immensely, for Coy is a team in himself. The unfortunate accident, to Kilpatrick robs Yale of her best end. Capt. Burch and Logan have both been badly battered and may not last. But there are good substitutes, and from the ends in Yale is strong and without a flaw. From the back field will be a changing ope except for Coy, who can’t be hurt, the Yale students say, and who will no doubt play the game through from start to finish. “Pop" Corey will go in at quarter when the game opens... He is a round, fat little fellow, but jammed full of enthusiasm and foot- ball knowledge. Johnson will go in if Corey is retired. Cutler, on Harvard, is a star at quar- ter. The Crimson will no doubt have an advantage here. Capt. Burr is not sure of lasting on account of injuries. Corbett and White, the halves, are stronger than Wheaton and Philbin, the Yale pair, but Verwiebe, while a good fullback, doesn’t compare with Coy, and here the strength of the back field is fairly evened up. The game will bring out two distinct styles of play. Yale, as she did. a Princeton, will depend upon an ——* plunging manner of play, Harvard is faster, trickier and given to forward passes and swift combinations. Thirty-five thousand people will be seated in the grandstands and several thousands more will find standing room. It is safe to say that were the bleachers large enough a hundred thousand people would see the game. Even now 75,000 have applied for seats and $25,000 was sent in with requests for tickets after] all had been sold. 7 — — Harvard's Shooters. — CAMBRIDGE, Mass., rard shootin ting Game ete —— on In the ann ial 'this season, BADGERS AAVE LITTLE HOPE 0 BEATING STAGC Crowds Swann Into Madison for Game to Decide Cham- pionship of the West. —E——— Position. .

Betting is light, many Maroon support- ers being unable to find much money at odds better than 5 to 3 on Chicago. The weather man promises “fair and warmer today.” All of the 10,000 seats have been dis- posed of. Coach Barry of the Badgers said: at ote for an awful fight and a close game.’ The Maroon warriors were in high spirits. There Was not an ache or pain in the bunch, and all were confident of winning the Western football champion- ship by defeating Wisconsin. The rooters were cheered by the smile on Stagg’s face. There was no expres- sion of doubt upon his countenance. “Yes, we have a pretty good team,” admitted Stagg. “The boys have mas- tered the open game and they show a spirit of determination that is a no- ticeable feature in a winning team. We don’t know much about Wisconsin. We understand that they have a very strong eleven, and that they have plenty of substitutes. They have not shown their full strength in any of their games and will give us a hard fight. It will probably be our hardest battle of the year, but if everything goes well, I guess we will not be bor- rowing after the game is-finished.’’ Capt. Walter Steffen was not over- confident. The little captain has his heart set upon “Winning, and will fight as he never fought before. “It really means a great deal to me,” said he, “more than I can express. We are going against a. hard proposition, but if determination and hard playing, coupled with a brilliant set of players count for anything, we will win. out.” | The rest of the players are supremely confident. 7 ; COLLEGIANS IN CROSS- COUNTRY RUN IN EAST NEW YORK, Nov. 21.—The intercol- legiate cross-country run will be held at Princeton today.

Minn., Nov. 21.—The Minnesota and® Carlisle Indjan football teams line up for the third time in as many years today. The Indians were favorites today, as Minnesota has had a particularly disastrous season. Coach Warner was not at all confident of a victory, as the Redmen have not gotten over their slump, according to the coach, and they were further han- dicapped by the absence of the star players, .Balenti, Afraid-of-a-Bear and Bird, who were unable to play on ac- count of injuries. Minnesota had everything to fight for and had worked assiduously during the past two weeks preparing for the Car- lisle game, paying particular attention to defense formations for the forward pass, The Minnesota players were in better condition than at any time this season. Coach Williams has been assisted dur- ing the past two weeks by several former Yale players, and Minnesota rooters hoped that a system of play ‘had been’ evolved that would break up the Indians’ whirlwind game and en- able Minnesota to more than hold her own on the offensive. Minnesota had been woefully weak in the open style of play, and her supporters were led to believe that they would see a decided season. — — — COMPLETE RACE CIRCUIT OF TEXAS BEST TOWNS HOUSTON, Tex., Nov. 21.—The dates of the Texas circuit for Beaumont have been officially announced.

Peterson ‘of St. Louis, champion red ball billiard player, will inaugurate a at the Pine Monday night. The mep will play 150 points each evening, the contest to end on Friday night. There is considerable rivalry between Cline and Peterson. Barly in the spring Peterson won out in a line match with the Quaker City At the time of his defeat Cline wanted to fight Peterson, and it was some weeks before the men would even speak. The balk Hine matches seem to de- velop more hard feeling between the ex- perts than any other game. Al Cutler they pass by as the result of their balk line match, which Cutler won. Peterson thinks that he can defeat Cutler in spite of the fact that Cutler won 4 match from him... These two players are anxious for another chance. Cline wants to wipe out his defeat at the hands of Peterson. John Daly, former three-cushion billiard champion, is get- ting interesteq in balk line and inci- dentally learning to spread his pudgy fingers for mésse shots. Daly made a run of 18 at red ball bil- liards yesterday. Peterson's claim that he can run 2% at red ball billiards caused corsiderable cémment. Cline claims that he can diso run % with- out trouble. In fact, he states that Kassignol, the French expert who played several matches in St. Louis last winter, made a run of 7% at red ball. 750-point 182 balk Uns billiard match] and Joe Capron will. hardly speak as} yee

— Cable to the ——— and New York World. ‘BERLIN, Nov. 21.—That the struggiec between Emperor William and the peo- ple of Germany is beginning, not ended, Dy his pledge, has come to be realiaed. The reactionaries flung up their caps upon the publication of Chancellor von ‘Buelow’s soothing announcement, which geemed to imply that the Emperor will » mo longer meddle in affairs belonging to Sah Constitutional Minister; today they | are entrenching themselves behind the ' Yamparts of privilege. Her von Norman, the leader of the Conservatives in the Reichstag and in the Prussian Diet,~said to the Post- Dispatch correspondent. “We accept in good faith and with confidence the declarations made in the official journal. We have absolute faith i the Emperor, who, for 20 years, has is moved himself a patriet, a true-heart- . ardent lever of his country. We = have never had the slightest occasion to doubt this, and now he gives his word we accept it as sacred. The Conserva- tive party's position is clear. We re- gretted the publication in the London Daily Telegraph, but too much has been '. Much indignation that is artificial has - een blown off by radicals and others for party ends,” he continued. ‘The great majority of the Germans held fast te their Emperor, willing to ferget his Japsés in view of the gigantic services he has rendered his country. In a short time the affair will have passed as an evil vision. The Patriotic View. “Considering our uncertain position abroad, we must rejoice that Von Bue- lew remains at his pest.

CHAS. H. TONEY CONCORD, N. H.. Nov. 21. Charles H. Morey, proprietor, poo- bah. “the whole thing,’’ of the town he owns and of the legislative district in New Hampshire in which he lives, as- pired to the Législature and ran for it, and although there are only four voters in his town, he was defeated for the honor by one of his employes, and noWw he is going to contest the election. Morey’s estate is a whole township. It extends over 13 miles. He has four mountain peaks in his pack yard. He is Postmaster, station agent, chairman of the Board of Health, and one of the Selectmen of his own little town—Hayt’s Location. Morey thought he would get all four votes for the Legislature, yet it was found that, with one excéption, the votes had been cast for the Republican candidate,. Roland B. Chase, one’ of Mr. Morey’s employes. So unexpected was the outcome that Mr. Morey filed a petition with the Sec- retary of State for an inspection of the ballots cast and demanded a recount, Morey is only 26 years old. He inher- ited his tewn, and he desires to lead a political life. . Rumor does not say the result had such a disastrous effect upon the los- ing candidate that it undermined his health; but it is a fact, however, that without even waiting to learn the re- sult of the recount Mr. Morey and his charming wife packed off to Jamaica, either to recuperate from the strenu- gus campaign or to avoid the cold weather, for they are not to return une til May.

His Majesty walked thus from the railroad station to the fortress, a dis- tance of three miles. In spite of appre- hensions for the safety of the Emperor,

Nov. 21.—About thousand angry citizens were at the railway station last evening when Sheriff A.-J. Tourtillot arrived in this city with Thomas Walters, a married man about 35 years of age, who had fled. the country about a, month ago with lit- tle Evelyn Jackson, the . 16-year-old daughter of C. P. Jackson, a promi- nent business man of Dixon. When the party arrived from Denver last night there Was an angry shout went up from the men the moment they had sight of Walters. A, crowd of men started toward the train platform to ‘meet him and to take him out of the Sheriff’s hands. ‘The wily officer, however, quickly pushed the frightened man back into the car and gave the signal for the train to start. Walter was taken over to Sterling, 10 miles distant, and was brought back to Dixon last night secret- ly and placed in Jail. He was given a hearing this morning and placed under bond. He was unable to give. bond and was sent back to Jail, to await trial. When Walters eloped with the little Jackson girl he left Mrs. Walters with 2 cents to provide for a family of six. children, the youngest a babe of two months. Sinee his departure his wife and children have been dependent upon the charity of the neighbors for sup- port.

Complaints like those made regard- ing certain ‘‘voters” in the St. Louis rrimaries are now being made con- cerning the suit of George Cross and 40 other Alton negroes, filed at Ed- wardsville several days ago for the purpose of forcing admission of negro children to the white schools of Alton, Letitia Cross says her husband, Blair Cross, whose name appears as a plaintiff, died two years ago. James Norvell, Samuel Henderson, Ada Jagk- son, Mattie Mayo and several other plaintiffs declare that the use of their names was unauthorized. The white people of Alton have threatened to give no employment to any negro who took part in the suit and the plaintiffs who say their names were used without authority express anxiety to be set right before the white people.
