The boards he expected to use to make a landing’ from the cage into the mine gallery. Paul quickly completed his mission and came to the surface, where he was joined by George H. Rice and R. ¥. Williams for the second descent. All left letters to be mailed to their fam- ilies in case of death. After the preliminary exploration into the airshaft last night, the inspectors and mining experts reported an encour- aging condition, and it' was determined not to loge a minute to take advantage of the low temperature at the bottom ef the emergency shaft. It was decided to reinforce the airshaft, to erect a scaffold to which will be attached hoist- ing apparatus and to explore inte the veins of the mine as far as human en- durance will permit. Dead Bodies Reported Seen, . Barly today it was reported that R. Y. Williams, who went into the shaft Hast night, had seen bodies in the sec- ond gallery not far from the shaft. fy. After a midnight conference of in- spectors and officials, however, carpen- ters, masons and laborers were sent for, and before morning work of preparing for the task of today had begun. It ig proposed to lower two men équipped with oxygen helmets into the shaft. They will enter the galleries and penetrate as far toward the main shaft as they can. If bodies are found they will be fastened to the tackle and raised, The exploration last night revealed at the bottom of the air shaft that there was less smoke and gas than there had been at any time since the fire started last Saturday. The temperature had also fallen. In this shaft the ther- mometer registered only 78 degrees. In the main shaft at the same time the temperature registered 110. This dif- ferehce in the temperature mystified the mine inspectors. Walle May Have Collapsed. It may be that the walls of the gal- leries have collapsed somewhere be- tween the air vent and the main shaft. If this proves to be the case there is little hope' that many of the dead can be recovered at this time. If the ex- plorers are able to reach the main shaft its seal also will be broken and search-

MINEAT \ CHERRY TASK 1S DANGEROUS] Loar FaREING IN HANDS: AND FEET. WAILE iN MINE | CHERRY, Iil., Nov. 1. ¥. WILLIAMS, who on- ~ tered the shaft of the St. * Paul mine last night, was unconscious when brought to the -$uTface in the ticket that served as a conveyance, but was quickly revived. “The scene in the pit was weird,” he said. ‘All about us the steam séemed to whirl and toss. There was very little smoke and much less heat than during the descent I made last Sunday. “I was filled with anxiety when I gave two squeezes on the autg- mobile horn, ag the signal to low- er. Slowly we went down, the dense steam wrapping over the walls of the shaft in an uncertain haze for the first 90 feet dawn. ! noticed the timber. supports were considerably scorched, but lower down this was less noticeable. “As I slowly descended I gave the signa] frequently to stop, hop- ing when I reached the depth to look into the galleries; but the steam was too dense. I did not see any bodies. When I reached the lower level at 310 feet my hands and feet began to be so numb I seemed to have lost the sense of feeling. I quickly gave the signal to ascend. Before I got to the top I felt rath- er queer and shouted, ‘I’m pretty near al] in,’ but the fresh air soon revived me. I hardly hoped to see any bodies. It is probable this air shaft has been cut off from the main shaft by the caving in of the walls.”

SMOKE INSPECTOR JONES LIKELY TO LOSE HIS OFFICE Two appointive city officials may be asked to resign as a result of investi- gation now being made by a speciai committee of the Municipal Assémbly. According to information given to a Post-Dispatch reporter by an official who asked that his name be not usei, the inquiry has disclosed lax. methods in |} one important office, and friction in an- other, may have the same consequences. * There is no charge of anything more serious than inefficiency in either case. The special conimittee has eires tv found what it alleges is bad managé- ment in the office of ‘Smoke insp...t Jones. Councilman Schutz of the com- t@ mittee told a Post-Dispatch reporter Thursday that deputies in that office have admitted that the smoke nuisance in St. Louls could be abated if the ordi- mances were properly enforced. Since last spring, Mr. Schutz said, but few inspections and no prosecutions had been undertaken by the Smoke Inspect- or... Notwithstanding, car tickets to the amount 6f $50 d ‘month had been used by, the pectors. The committee has recommended to the Municipal Assembly that the office of Smoke Inspector be abolished and / has introduced an ordinance to that end.. The duties now performed by the Smoke Inspector and his deputies will be transferred to the Boiler Inspéctor, who, undér the new ordinance, will receive $3000 a year and will be a man of technical education. This consolidation will save the city between $7000 and $8000 a year. cs to New: York at the . beginning of a business day

NEW YORK, Nov. 18—John Jacob Astor's yacht Nourmahal is still miss- ing. No news of the vessel has been received since she put out from Kings- ton, Jamaica, on Nov. 5, bound for the nearby port of San Juan, in Porto Rico. Since then a disastrous hurricane has ewept over Jamaica and Hayti. In an effert.to discover the yacht the New York World has invoked the aid of the United States Wireless Co. Acting upon a request made by that newspaper, the company sent notices to the 15 stations lying to the southward of this port, a string extending from Manhattan Beach to Galveston, Tex., and to Guantanamo, Cuba. The com- pany also sent messages to eight steam- white. .Oxterd ships which are. now in West Indian and red; spe- waters and which are equipped with cial at wireless, Up to this morning no news of the yacht has been received. The vesse] is not fitted with wireless, but if she has come to her undoing on a reef or shoal}, such as the Higgins yacht Varuna did at Madeira, in all probability the wire- less chain would have discovered it and sent the news to this city. Mrs. Astor, the divorced wife of Col. John Jacoh Astor, who with his son was on board the Nourmahal when the yacht put out from Kingston, sailed from this port yesterday on board the steamship Lusitania of the Cunard line Although the West Indian cable is broken off Turk’s Island and no direct communication can be had with Porto | Nat a ee - Pay PR eR as MRE > | MER PRICE SHATTERED! ae Foe A RECORD BREAKER! °°'% THE FOR LADIES? 18.00 AND 20.00 i is!

Rico, it is certain that Col. Astor’s yachi was not able to make that island, as the steamship Caracas of the Red D line which left San Juan yesterday for La Guayra; thé Ponce of the New York ana Porto Rico line, now lying in Mayaguez harbor, and the Carolina, which leaves San Juan today for New. York, are all without news of the Nourmahal. The Tagus of the Royal Mail Steam Packet Co., which arrived in Kingston yesterday, bound for New York and the Atrato of the same line, which leaves Jamaica tomorrow for Colon, have both reported “No news.” There is hope that the 8S. V. Lucken- back of the Insular line, which is cruis- ing around Porto Rico, and which will leave San Juan for New York later, may: bring some information, but more ro Hiance is placed on the Relay of the Mexican Telegraph Co., which has gone to mend the cable at Turk’s Island, and has a powerful wireless outfit. While not a recently built yacht, the Nourmaha! is thoroughly up to date in equipment. Within the last few years her owner has spent $50,000 on rugs and draperies alone. One of the features of the yacht is a large open fireplace in the dining saloon, which attracted the at- itention of the Grand Duke Boris of Rus- sia when he, with 4 other guests, was entertained at a banquet by Mrs. Astor in 1902. Fruit Company Helps. NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 18.—All the wireless stations of the United Fruit Co. and its entire fleet of passenger and banana vessels plying across the Carib- bean Sea were asked by the New York World to aid in the search for the Nour mahal, Col. J. J. Astor’s yacht, which has-not been heard from since Nov. 5. In response to the World’s request, Crawford H. Ellis, president of the New Orieans Board of Trade and manager of the United Fruit Co., sent out a genera, alarm to all the stations controlled by his company. These Include the enor- mously powerful station on Swan Island, by which the United Fruit Co. is able to keep continually in touch with its entire tropical fleet.

- THE WHOLE TRUTH. ‘concerning the tariff frauds of and inside ‘circles. Not been warned frequently of the fraudulent practices ‘Trust, but in one instance convinc- one President and his Attorney-General. Receiver Barle of the Pennsylvania Sugar Refinery has stated that he was told about the frauds and gave full information of them to President Roosevelt and Attorney-General Bonaparte. The statement has been made that three ree are in- volved in the scandals. This is an amazing situation. It eaauha dis- quieting speculation on the extent of frauds against the Government and of collusion on the part of Government officials. If, with knowledge of these scandals, Govern- ment officials did noth!ng until forced to action by a tremendous ‘public explosion and explicit ae- mands from the press, the suspicion that other scandals are being suppressed is inevitable. What else is under cover? What other scandalous con- ditions exist in the Government service? The people cannot be satigficd now without a thorough investigation. Let us hate all the facts about all the frauds regardless of consequences. Government prosecuters say that the Department of Justice is debarred from prosecuting many of the crimes of the Trust by the statute of limita- tions, but no statute runs against Congress. That body can go thoroughly into every phase of fraud and wrong without check as to time or elrcum- has | 5t@nces. 3 If the Taft administration does not bare all the facts by a thorough investigatioa, the demand for ‘jaformation will be intensttied. It will ve a‘lead- ing issue in the next campa‘gn against tue Repub- pitean party—let us know the wh..¢ tr uth. _Ex-Boss “*Jep” Howe's *jachrymose discontent with what the newspapers | ‘have said about him should be supplemented with a large appreciation of what they have refrained from saying. i i Ae i ie DOING SOMETHING WITH PSYCHE, In his essay on “The Will to Believe,” William James said that the reason why so few sclen- tists eveh look at the evidence for telepathy was because they think, as a leading biologist once said, “that even if such a thing were true, scien- tists ought to band together to keep it. sup- pressed and concealed.” This was more than ten years ago. The page in the Sunday Post-Dispatch telling of Lembroso’s dealings with the medium Busapia Paladino, and the fact that this medium has just been brought to the United Stetes to be studied by a number of scientists, indicates that the consensus of opinion in the scientific world has changed, not only in regard to telepathy, but as to a mass of queer phenomena at which the older scientists

flooked askance. The reason for this change may, perhaps, be found in a remark by Prof: James in the essay named. Speaking of the extremely skeptical ‘scientist who would have all psychical] research suppressed, he says: “But if this very man had been shown something which as a scientist he might do with telepathy, he might not only have examined the evidence, but even have found it good enough.” | And surely the modern scientist who dabbles in psychical research has found something he may do with it. He may get interviews published all over the country, He may lecture at so much per night to fashionable audiences. And he may write big saleable books summing up all that is known or believed to be known on the subject. Hence his “will to believe” is enlisted in the new study. Its truth or falsity presents itself to hing as what Prof. James calls a living option. The ghost and all that implies becomes as friend- ly to his thinking as the theory of the conserva- tion of energy which it appears to contradict. And all because he has found uses for the new field of research. = = rT The Springfield Republican suggests that Taft will be able to force reactionary lawmakers into line by saying that unless he gets what he wants it “will be Roosevelt as sure as fate in 1912.” It is a hopeful sign that the possibility of four more years of the Rough Rider is regarded as a threat, not as a promise.

‘a = = ~~. THE NATIONAL CRITIC. James J. Hill, in the position of nationai criti, is well placed. With gieat achievements to ‘his credit, with the imagination to conceive them and the energy to execute them, he is still without il- yusions and looks with clear and all-embracing vis- ion over the nation and its works. Just now high prices stagger him. They stagger others, too, but for a different reagon. Mr. Hill sees in high and increasing prices the sign of national decadence'and decay. He has

been reading history, he sdys, and finds that ’“na-| jJttonal decline: beging when the’ cost of living be-| comes a ee to the Masses, while the immense-’ eason, good Povey and} Mr. Hill didn't have to read history t6 seniti f a fei oe - t i E sf345 that.

It would make no dif- ference how cheap gas was, if meters were unrella- ble, People from all parts of the city have been com- plaining a long time of their gas meters working overtime, making their gas bills much larger than they should be, ‘ONE OF THE ViCTIMs. Justice Is Demanded. To the Rditor of the Pcst-Dispatch. In realy to J. J. O'Leary's letter defending O’ Hearn, would that we had more Mr. Sullivans. Our Police Board is composed of men in whom the police in general have every confidence that they will do} (heir duty in this as in other cases. Applications for positions as patrolmen are very often signed by men as favors, never Having seen the applicant. Allow me to ask Mr. O'Leary after having known for 15 years O'Hearn, had Collings murdered him instead, what would .have been the outcome? Would the family want the sad case forgotten? The murder of young Mr Collins, who had a-father and sisters, cries out, not for revenge, but justice. A SILENT SPECTATOR TO THE DEED. ' Rich Can Be Good. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Tolstoy’s article on léve, as recently published in your paper, was splendid, excepting that part in which he said it was harder for the wealthy than the poor to love and be kind to their fellow man. This sounds strange, coming from a “representative of the people.”” The most pepular man in the world has said that the wealthy have no excuse for commit- ting crimes for money, because they do not need it. Everybody knows this is true. It is a _ thou- sand times easier for them to be kind and honest than the poor, because they have plenty of this world’s goods, and instead of stealing from the people and breaking the laws on all sides and grinding their help down to the last notch of endur- ance, often killing them, they should help them in every possible way. That fa laws.

Kindness distinguishes the man from the beast. ET. FR. America Honors Womanhood. To the Editor or the Post-Dispatch. With all that the good Mrs, Anna Schmidt and Miss Rosa Maibaum say, I agree. I was a servant girl in Breslau, in Germany, and am very thankful that I got away from there. I am now a cook for a fine family and carn $25 per month. I have already $1100 in the bank. My room is very cozy and I am delight- ed with it. I am not treated like a servant, but more like a member of the family. These are fea- tures of American culture which I certainly appre- ciate very much. I think that everybody who has sense and wants to work can get along in these heav- enly United States very nicely. I heard it said that the thermometer by which the civilization of a coun- try is measured is the way the women folks are treat- ed and if. this is true then the civilization of these lovely United States is higher than that of Germany. f read in the Mississipp{ Blaetter of yesterday that the celebrated Prof. Oux says that in some respects the American universities are better than the German universities, and’ I advise those members of the Ger- man-American Alliance who are talking of intro- ducing German culture here to write this statement behind thoir ears a little bit. M. B. The Teller’s Hard Lot. To the Editor of the Pobt-Dispatch. We have read-a great dea] lately of the boys who have weakened under thé influence of temptation. Some of us have criticised them, but few have looked ‘upon the cases from the inside as a bank clerk, We bank teHers are married men, ‘working for a boy's wages; yet we shoulder the responsibility of a “giant in finance.” All of us get down at 8:30, some before; some never Jeave the bank, are rushed up in the elevator to the dining room for a hurfied lunch, not getting the taste of fresh air which is so bene- ficial. And, too, they are confined in a cage, four | sides and a top, six feet square, handling large sums of money, ‘ever careful for a crook, a short-change man or a counterfeit bill; must know the: thousands of signatures, how many signatures are required to draw and stop payment checks, and many other things of importante, too numerous to mention. Of course, the bank is responsible to a cystomer for all of this, and the bank holds a teller responsi- ble. Can you imagine ‘a Saturday morning? The average outsider will say, “What a Snap! Bank opens at 9, closes at 12, then you are off for the day." This is not so. The business man—corporation alike—must go to the bank.

ee NEW FOES TO FIGHT PNEUMONIA. From the New York World. The initial success of the new methods of treating pneumonia which have been applied independently at the Tuits Med- ical School. and by physicians from the Harvard Medical Sehool at the Mas- sachusetts General Hospital encourages the expectation that medical science is at last on the track of a specific rem- edy for the baffling disease, In the Tufts treatment a vaccine com- posed of sterilized pneumonia germs or pneumococci is injected to conmtbat the disease. Only six out of thirty-four unpromising cases of pneumonia in which the remedy was used resulted fa- tally, while but two of forty-nine or- dinary cases so treated were lost. The Harvard treatment has a roman- tic interest for the reason that it em- | bodies @ practical application of Metch- nikoff’s theory of the disease-resisting function of the white corpuscles of the blood. A serum or extract made of white corpuscles and administered in 41 cases of pneumonia proved effica- cious in saving 36. WHAT SHE IMAGINED. From the Chicago Record-Herald. ‘Don’t imagine,” he said after she had refused him, “that I am going away to blow my brains out or drink myself to death.”’ “No,” she replied, “I have no idea that you will do anything of that kind. You are going away to do some won- derful thing which will bring you wealth and fame and make me regret ail the rest of my: life that I didn’t believe you when you intimated that you were one of the greatest little men that had ever come over the asphalt,”

Merchants’ Dedidee Sees End to Discrimination Against Traffic, From West. —_—_— ‘St. Louis grain merchants are jubilant over the announcemept by the “Pennsyl- vania, the Baltimore & Ohio Southwest- ern and. the New York Centra! that these roads will on Dec. 20 abolish the and grain produets. The other Eastern, Southeastern and Northeastern lines have already ‘eliminated the arbitrary ip the proportional rate, and the announce- tnenés of the three roads named marks the attainment of, ali the Merchants’ ‘Exchange has contended for in refer- ences to grain rates. The three roads, in making the an-~- nouncement, made an important ad- vance over competitive Eastern lines. These three lines and the Wabash and ‘| Chicago, Peoria & St. Loufs now have a flat rate on grain and grain products |} from St. Louis, while other Fastern roads only do away with the arbitrary in proportional rates. It is expected that all the Eastern roads will meet the changed conditions. ‘Includes All Shipments From West. The flat rate, as fixed by the five toads, ‘applies. to all grain and grain products freight, whether originating at St. Louis or at points west of St. Louis. The proportional fate applies on grain and grain products originating west of St. Louis. The rates from St, Louis for the five lines are now the same as those from East St. Louis on traffic moving to Eastern points, originates at St. Louis or elsewhere west of the Missisgippi River. Especial appreciation is expressed by the Merchants’ Exchange to the Chica- go, Peoria & St. Louis Railroad for the result, as this road made the flat rate and turned the traffic over to connect- ing roads. . BABY PLAYING Brewer, 2 Years Old, Rush to Aid Too Late. i Cn a Eugene Brewer, 2 years old, was burned fatally Thursday at his home, 1116A South Compton avenue, in spite of the frantic efforts of his mother and aunt to smother the‘flames which at- tacked his clothing _and seared his flesh, The child was amusing himself by throwing bits of straw and paper into the grate, whfle his mother, Mrs. Eliza- beth Brewer, was downstairs with her sister, Mrs. Ella Halbert. His dress caught fire, and as Mrs. Brewer started upstairs, she heard his stream for help. She ran into the room and tried to beat out the flames with her hands and was severely burned. She threw a bucket of water over the child, but that did not avail. Mrs. Halbert heard the struggle and ran upstairs. .She held an old skirt un- flames.

ST. LOVIS VIGOROUS AND STRONG AT 84 Mr: and Mrs. Horace Swan, well-known citizens of Rutland, Vt., who are hale and hearty, ale though both have passed the 84th milestone mark, have good words to say of Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey as a tonic stimulant for the aged and as'a cure for Grippe. } MR. AND MRS. HORACE SWAN, EACH 84 YEARS OLD. On February 18th, 1909, Mr. Swan wrote; ‘‘I am eighty-four years old and of late have been using a little of Duffy’s Pure Malt Whiskey as a tonic and body builder, and find it far better for me than any other. Even two teaspoonsful of yours in a little hot’ water has far better effect on me than twice as much of any other kind. It gives me my old time strength and energy.’ On February 25th, 1909, Mrs. Swan wrote: “‘I am eigthy-four and six months old and had Grippe for six weeks or more, had chills and cough at night which were very weakening. When I had those spells my husband would give me two teaspoonfuls of Duffy’s Pure Malt Whiskey in a little hot water and my cough would ease and I would go right to sleep until morning, then get up and do my work, taking a little more | as I needed it, and sd I have wie, along until now I am well. Nothing I ever took did me so much good as Duffy’s Pure Malt Whiekey. Nothing else would break my chills and give me a good night’s rest. I can recommend it to all that are run down or need toning up, spe A the aged.” Duffy’sPureMalt Whiskey as a renewer of youth and toric stimulant is one of the greatest strength- givers known to science. It aids in destroying disease and by its building and healing properties assists in restoring tissues in’ a gradual, healthy, natural manner, thus keeping the old, young in spirits.

sal OVA is the greatest billiard : player in the history of the game?” asks a reader of cue affairs in a letter. The anxious one signs himself “‘Cue.’’ We can there- fore ask him to take a tip kindly, and go and do penance for the crime of for- gzetting the only great billiard man in the world—Jake Schaefer. Fame must, after all, be a fleeting thing, if “Cue” cannot recall the won- derful career of the “Little Wizard,”’ who, only a few short months ago, was forced to abandon the game to go West for his health. Who is Sutton?, Who Hoppe? Who is Ives? Merely adept pu- pils at all of the things of which Jake Schaefer was the originator. They shone

by the reflected light of the little man with the lion heart. When Schaefer entered billiards it was at the straight-rail game. He soon reached the stage where he could play five nights without missing, and they thought it was time to stop this sort of thing. So they invented eight-inch balk- line to put Jake on a par with other players. His mastery of the straight rail none of them could equal. So when they put on the balk-line, Jake devised the balk-line nurse and again they had to handicap him in order that his op- ponents might get a shot. They Increase the Handicap. Then they raised the balk to 14 inches, two shots in. And so Jake fiddled around, nursing with almost as much freedom as he did at the eight-inch style. NE day in practice he placed the C) object balls straddle in the balk- line where it joins the lower rail, almost ‘“‘frozen.’’ In this position he tickled his cue ball back and forth across the balk-line with matchless deli- cacy.’ Hig accurate work soon wore the faintest depressions in the cloth—enough for a man of his feather touch to be able to hold the balls in position and then run up the fabulous score that astonished the cue world at the time. His employment of this position later resulted in the barring of the ‘“‘anchor nurse,’’ for that is the name it acquired. None but Ives could ever approach him at this style of play. Finally Came the 18.1 Game. Following this they still further handi- capped this remarkable student of the game with the 18.2, then the 18.1 balk- line game. For all of these advances Schaefer was directly responsible. His ingenuity de- vised all the important ‘“nurses’’ and his successors are but imitators. And yet, Mr. Cue, you ask who is the greatest player in history? Is there anything phonetically signifi- cant in the fact that the Harvard eleven has, for its game with Yale, gone to rest at Dedham? Beats a Political Caucus. EVER in the history of St. Louis N\ has there been such a préliminary coil over a Harvard-Yale game’s outcome. This season’s fracas is the talk of all the West End clubs and many considerable wagers“ have been made. A well-known young Yale man set the odds locally when he recently wageréd $500 to $300 that Yale would be the win- ner. That seems to be the prevailing price, and fairly enough seems to rep- resent the various estimates of the rela- tive strength of the two elevens. . But the outcome ig having more and more ‘even money” flavor as the day for the game rolls round. On the morn- ing of the battle, unless something oc- curs to shake the confidence in one or the other elevens, the price will probably not be more than 6 to 5. _ —— aw Another Real Champion. ee RANK GOTCH, in the wrestling world, is today as conspicuous & | figure as James J.

INJURIES Le W 3 PLAYERS BY CHARLES CHADWICK, For Four Years Tackle and Guard at Yale. NEW YORK, Nov. 18 ALE and Harvard both seem just Y now to be worrying over the end positions, and Yale is also WOrTy- ing about the situation at quarterback. For some reagon Yale offense lacks continuity when it comes to @ critical point, and this has been ascribed on good authority to the lack of general ship. It has been asserted when Prince- ton held Yale for downs that if Sav- age, who had gone in a fresh man, had been called upon, Yale would have made a touchdown. When Princeton held the Navy for downs on her one-yard line, the Navy quarterback was rightly criticised for using @ formation play in. which the last man carried the ball. That mis- take was perfectly obvious. But it 1s not so obvious that the Yale general made an error. At least there is some- thing to be said on the other side Princeton was fighting for every inch, as only Princeton can. No one who,saw that Princeton team go down to defeat can fail to realize that it was putting up a pretty good article of football. Twice it was Coy who carried the ball for Yale and Hart. perately charging Tiger stopped the Yale captain. Quarterback’s Bad Judgment, On one occasion, however, the Yale quarterback, Howe, showed plainly 4 lack of headwork. That was when he ran with the ball himself, inside of tackle. It happened on one of the oc- casions when Yale was near enough to score, and it caused a penalty and loss of a possible touchdown. But Yale's offense at other times showed an almost incredible power. One shift play, Left Tackle Hobbs drawn over to the right to reinforce Goebel and Lilley, with Coy behind them, made the nucleus of an attack that shot into the Princeton line like a six-inch shell. And Yale still has up her sleeve a number of plays which she did not find it necessary to show to defeat Prince- ton. They are going to be sprung on Harvard. In spite of the criticjsm which has. been leveled at Yale’s lack of sustainéd power in advancing the ball, to which I called attention some time before the Princeion game, it seems to me that when the Blue \meets the Crimson Yale will come pretty close to having an old-fashioned, driving Yale offense. The signs of it that appeared in the Princeton game wre startling at times. In the first two minutes of the came the Yale team fairly swept down the field, carrying the Tigers before them as though they were one of the rush line,

By Leased Wire From ‘the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Nov... 18.—Wall street came around today to the belief that the Mackay companies is the chief force in the telephone and telegraph situa- tion. The Mackay companies own out- right - the Postal Telegraph, which, strange. to say,.is incorporated for only $100,000, and the Commercial Cable Oo capitalized at $24,00v,000. While Clarence H. Mackay is ears bly the biggest force in the companies, he is believed to have the support and backing of the J. P.

Men who professed to know something ifi-about the financial situation of the Ui | various companies declare their belief gj.is that Clarence H. Mackay, or the in- terests behind him, will soon assume complete control of the American Tele- phone and Telegraph Co. and arrange things to sult, themselves. f- ¥s Raise of Rates Poss If this combination choos he raise i the rates there is no redress except -. fe have, eran eenecaligicnm through legal channels, anu the com- h | panies are depending on the ruling of the Appellate Division of the Sup eme Court of this State, which frowned upon Attorney-General Jackson's efforts to break up the then existing combination.
