lore ci By Wire From the Washington Ba- reau cf the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, Jan. 10.—Representa- tive Dwight of New York, Republican whip, has taken the names of the in- surgent congressmen from the list of those to whom he sends notices de- manding their attendance at times of division. This practically divorces them from the Republican organization and leaves them homeless as to political household. The power of the party caucus will be invoked in the House in the effort to suppress the revolt of the imsur- gents. The leaders decided today that whenever the insurgents as a body dif- fer with the majority the caucus shall determine the party course. The “insurgents” were not visibly agitated by the action of the ‘campaign committee when they appeared at the Capitol today. Several of them already have observed the shadow of coming events in their districts and have ex- pected that the organization would fight tooth and nail to prevent’ their renom- ination and even their re-election in event of their nomination. . Testimonial to the Rébels. Insurgents take as a testimonial to the strength of their position, the action of the Senate this morning when the Committee on Public Lands reconvened and amended its resolution providing for the Ballinger-Pinchot investigation so as to leave to the House, and not to the Speaker, the method of selecting its membership of the committee. It was ‘ yg a on this point the insurgents Friday gave Speaker Cannon ‘his: first éorat re 7 Shots, sWeard ‘on the firing ine when a toute» pasion aim the present fight began. ers and their productions, .

A manifesto against indiscriminate charitable contributions has been issued by Archbishop John J. Glennon. He de- clares that many imposters, under :the cloak of religion, prey upon the public, and that numerots pious “grafts” are fiourishing because the public does not avail iteelf of the organized channels of charity. The wafning is addressed to both Catholics and non-Catholics. “IT desire,’’ says the Archbishop, ‘“‘t. cali the attention of the clergy and laity of the diocese, especially: in the city, to certain regulations that obtain, an] which, if faithfully observed, would tend to minimize, if not entirely eliminate, certain abuses.’’ Manifesto of Archbishop. The manifesto follows: It is a rule, for instance, that no one shall collect moneys for charita- ble or religious purposes indiscrim- inately through the city unless such a person has the permission of the Archbishop, and the same in writing. This rule applies to the priests and sisters and religious in general, and is especially true of those who come here from the. outside. Not unfre- quently does it happen that they who travel under religious garb are un- worthy of the confidence or patron- age of charitable people and some- times turm out to be fraudulent. Of course, exception may be made in the case of the Little Sisters of the Poor or representatives of established charities that are personally known to the charitable public. From time to time the Catholic public are imposed on. by unscrupu-. ‘ous agents who would sell them worthless pictures, cheap literature or tawdry articles of devotion, de- ‘thanding for them a price that Is ex-

The affinity of the theater is not with the social insti- tutions. The play is associated, on the contrary, with cards, the dance, the cafe and the wineroom. * * * The theater at its best is capable of only a limited amount of good. - Sin, get forth as the beginning of sorrows, does not really warn; the portrayal of virtues does not ennoble; the seeming has little real or moral force.—The Rey.

Do not frown upon them after you have listened to them, but get your frown: on first and. don’t listen to them afterward. Another is a cen- sorship. I know of nothing which the proper authorities could do more wise and more helpful to the people at large than to forbid and make impossible any theatrical representa- tion that is armed with a ‘threat against the integrities of character or slippery with the slime of evil sug- gestion.-The Rev.

The legality of ité ordinances have been sus- ship is effective to regulate the pie- ture theaters, as the superintendent of police of Chicago says it is, it can class.—The Rev. Dr. J. L. Mauze, Presbyterian. . ILE much is radically wrong, W: do not believe a censorship would solve the problem. First, the church at largé has not yet indorsed any theater and there- fore could not-very well appoint a committee which would be compelled to say some plays are all right. This committee might also indorse some play which would be produced on Sunday in violation of the Sabbath.

He says that Sunday night while the ministers were preaching the play “St. Elmo” broke the attendance record of the American Theater. As Wednesday. night is prayer meeting night in nearly every Prot- 1 estant church in St. Louis, it is not likely that many of the ministers will be able to accept Mr. Burroughs’ in- 285 g HERE is but.one effective and In this tained by the Supreme Court of Ili-- nois.

Again, a censorship committee for the stage would develop simply into an advertising medium. A promoter would not abandon his enterprise without a fight. Suppose he should win. You can appreciate the adver- Aisement his production would have received. The church today needs to wake up and realize its @uty and responsi- bility to the people in the downtown districts who have been left prac- tically without religious influerice to wander to amusements which are too often vile.. Every downtown church should contain a large entertainment hall in which entertainments of an uplifting character should be pro- duced.—-The Rev. L. E. Todd,Meth- odist. ors, is capable of judging for us What is fit for us to see and what is unfit. We must judge for ourselves, and the aim of reform should be to arouse people to judge for them- selves in this matter and refuse to attend exhibitions offensive to self- respect.

Tifsel and glare have displaced the fire of enthusiasm and passion, and low if not filthy sugges- tions have crowded love and honor from their throne. As a cure for this sad condition of things many are turning to the pow-~ er of censorship. It is good as far as it goes, but whether the censor be appointed by the State or mu- nicipal organization, or by some body of people appointed for that purpose, reputation on the charaeter of his asso- clates. “te I were fot respectable,” asked McIntosh of his audience, “and if; the profession to which t have the honor to belong were not respectable, could I be a friend to the President of the United States? Seareely. I was Mr. Taft’s guest after his inauguration.’ Mctintosh’s statement about his friend- ship with President Taft was made in answer to a, portion of the Rev. Mauze’s sermon to the effect that “the stage is immoral, corrupt, naked, vicious and unashamed; its women travel un- protected and are at- the mercy of cal- low youth and decrepit age.’’ 1 dos icin 0, Can nts fly.

WILL ASK ‘ORDINANCE | eg eee English System May Be as a Model for Proposed St. Louis Measure. Fd aa The committee of five, appointed to formulate a plan for censorship of the St. Louis stage, will hold a meeting Thursday at a place and an hour to be fixed by John 8S. Leahy, chairman. George R. Robinson of » Kirkwood, vice-president of the Purina Milling Co., id Monday that he ha@ not decided whether to accept his appointment as a& ynember of the committee. He said he had positive views on the questions in- volved, but he did not wish to make a detailed statement before deciding to serve on the committee or before con- ferring with ‘its other members. The other four members of the com- mittee stated their individual views as to plan and method to a Post-Dispatch reporter, as follows: ‘ John S&S. Leahy: We hope to per- suade the Municipal Assembly to pass an ordinance creating the office of stage censor, or censors, and mak- ing it illegal to produce any play or moving picture without a permit from such an official. The censor should have the power to require manuscripts to be sub- mitted to him, to see preliminary performances in cases where he might be in doubt, and to go to other cities to’ view plays. There should be one appeal from his decision—an appeal to the Mayor. The Rev. Dr. W. J. McKittrick: Without having formed any very definite conclusion as to methods of censorship, I would say that I favor a small board, probably of three men, certainly not more than five, to be appointed by the Mayor. They should have authority to prevent ob- jectionale productions. As to their manner of obtaining knowledge about plays and of judg- ing’ them, I should prefer to leave a good deal to the discretion of the censors themselves. Leighton Shields: Before mak- ing my main ideas on the plan for censorship of St. Louis plays public I would Wke to at first meet with the committee. | Pérsonally, I am interested in the Sonigtiah plan of censorship and in some respects it might do here, As I understand it a censor appointed by the Lord Chancellor has the power, after seeing a play, to check it if it does not meet with his approval. There has been considerable critt- cisam of some of his alleged arbi- trary methods, and a commission was appointed by the -House of Commons to investigate. I am going to try to get a copy of the report of this commission for the use of the St. Louls committee. Judging from some of the plays produced: in St. Louis lately a cen- sorship is badly needed. Whether the public taste can be educated by -_-_—_—— dl Tenth. Olive and Locust Streets, | = = | i seemed objectionable, the board should report to the Mayor. Final action should be left in the Mayor's hands, and he should have authority to prevent any production. Plays should be dealt with as far in advance of production-as possible, to avoid advertising them through the board’s action. I am a theater- , oer and believe in the stage, but I believe there is a great field for legal regulation in the plays pro- duced in St. Louis theaters. The committee was named as the re- sult of the appointment of Mr. Leahy at a meeting in the Knights of Colum- bus Building. The impetus to the movement came from Dr. Mauze’s orig- inal sermon on the evils of the stage, preached more than a month ago. 75,000 GIRLS IN SHIRTWAIST FACTORIES TO GO ON STRIKE NEW YORK, Jan. 10.—A national strike of shirt waist makers, involving 75,000 girls in 4 cities, has been decid- ed upon by thegheads of the union. here, according to a statement by Salavatore Ninfo, general organizer. A sympathetic strike is necessary, the union leaders say, because at present many of the New York manufacturers are getting their goods from factories in other cities. Ninfo left New York today for New England, with credentials which he said authorized him to start a genera) strike movement there. He hopes to call out 8000 shirt waist makers in Connecticut and 10,00 in Massachusetts. Later, he says, the strike will be extended to Chicago and other cities. *‘Eleme Mix”* Tuesday's 40c Chocolates and Bon Bons 2c lb.

Wells, Fargo & Co., as shown oy the figures, paid its stockholders a dividend of 300 per cent Christmas, making a dis- tribution of $24,000,000. It also increased its capital stock from $8,000,000 to $24,- 000,000, The Adams Express Co,, on two sep- arate occasions, the last time in 1907, paid ite stockholders special dividends of 200 per cent, amounting each time to $24;000,0.), or $48,000,000 in all. .These div- idends are over and above the regular annual-dividends paid to the stockhold- ers of the express companies. The Missouri Ratiroad and Warehouse. Commission will investigate the express arbitrary in St. Louis Jan. 4. The hearing will be held at room ,818 Pierce suilding. Persons who have been com- pelled to pay arbitrary charges for the delivery of packages beyond the fixed lines are requested by Chairman Wight- man of the Commission to send their complaints to his office.

WOMAN TRAINER MANGLED IN CAGE BY MAD LEOPARD Animal Seizes Her Throat at - Rehearsal and © Claws Scalp to Tatters. By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Jan. 10.—Mrs. Pauline Russgelle, trainer of performing leopards, was seriously mutilated by one of three of these animals she owns while she was putting the brutes through ia re- hearsal' in a big cage on the fourth floor of Huber’s Museum in East Four- teenth street yesterday. When Mrs. Russelle entered the big Cage on the ’-~ floor, there was no- body present but her assistant, James Hendrickson. “Mrs. Russelle entered the cage, whip in hand. Hendrickson stood on guard outside the cage. Mrs. Rus- selle cracked her whip and caused the three leopards to leap to a horizontal bar in the cage. One Leopard Was Ugly. Roy and Arnold were in good temper, but Clayton was ugly. He would not remain on the bar and leaped into a corner of the cage, where he crouched, snarling. Mrs. Russelle’s premonition of impending danger then caused her to drive Roy and Arnold into the adjoining ¢. She pluckily, despite her fear, faced Clayton-alone. She cracked her whip and ecOmmanded Clayton to leap over her head. The big leopard crouched and leaped. ‘As he curved over the trainer’s head his tall struck her shoulder... The leopard alighted softly behind her. As she turned with her whip to face him again, Clayton, snarling with rage, leaped upon her. The weight. of the angry brute threw Mrs. Russelle to the floor of the cage. The leopard sank his fangs into her throat and with his keen claws mauled her head, lacerating her scalp frightfully. Animal Seized Her Throat. “the brute’s fangs in her throat, she was: unable to scream, but Hen- ‘was quice to act.. The leop- ard’s tall as he crouched over the pros- trate body of the performer. was thrust out between the bars of the cage. Hen-/ PICK seized the tail and twisted it with all his strength. The leopard re- leased his clutch on Mrs. Russelle’s throat. et ee Sechelt Regular Epidemic of | oe in st Louis | | | | | - man a cate IS

Recerit Head of St. Louis- * Kansas City Trolley Pro: ject Explains. PROMOTING LAND DEAL Resigned From Business and Church for Good of His Associates. Col. Walter H. Chase, still a resident ‘of St. Louis, explained to a Post-Dis- patch reporter Monday his reasons for ( retiring from the presidency of the com- pany planning the © 8t. Louls-Kansas .City electric railway, and for request- ing ‘that his name be dropped from the membership rol! of the Second Baptist Church. , Col. Chase has been in St. Louis all the time, he says, though it was sup- posed a few weeks ago that he had gone to Louisville. Another report placed his whereabouts in s Angeles. He and his wife live at the Marquette Hotel, and he has an office in the Third National Bank Building. He is interested in the transmissouri trolley project, he says, though he had ceased to be its director, and he is deal- ing with some land. and iron propositions while, like Micawber, he waits optimist- ically for something to turn up. He has a few debts, due to “illness, he says, anc there are some unpaid court judgments against, him, but he cxpresses eonfidence that h@ will square accounts with the world in a short time. 3 Nhe wicked”, “double,” whom Col. Chase blamed for past acts attributed to the, Colonel, is still the bané of his éxistence. It was because of the acts of this pernicious personality,, he. says, that his recent business. changes were brought: about, and his relations to the church terminated, Quit Church for Its Good. “I quit the church for the sake of the church,’’. Col. Chase explained. ‘‘I had gained unsavory notoriety in the news- papers, which, though untrue and un- just, hurt me to a considerable extent. As I stated in my letter to the church, T thought my connection might be detri- mental to the church, and in order to relieve the Second Baptist .Church ,of any embarrassment, I..aaked them to drop me. They. did. “I was " St. Louis at the, time, .They thought was in Louisville and I let them think it, because I did not think it becoming for me. to, talk about pay church action, as it was.a private gnat- ter. But it seems the Buia people talked. “It was..for a.similar reason . that I quit the Electric. Railway Company. My name. was used in connection with unpleasant stories published, and I fear- ed my mame might. hurt the railway proposition, so I retired from the presi- dency. I am still indirectly connected with the electric line.”’ Col. Chase occupies room 914 In the Third National Bank building, a small room around the corner in the rear of a suite, a room with no sign on the door. Merely Visiting a Week. “After the electric line moved its of- fices to Kansas City,” he said, “I gave up the suite in the Bank of Commerce Building, because it was too expensive. Then I got sick and was confined to my (house in McPherson avenue for weeks: “After I was able to be up I rented my house furnished: and went to Louib- ville for a week. en I returned I stopped at the Marquétte and took the office in the Third National. “IT intend to stay right here. I still optimistic, The world has not been kind to me, but I bear no malice I have some land and iron propositions on hand now. “My prospects are not the brightest just now, but I am still smiling. I have curtailed my expenses, but hope soon to be in better condition. Owing to my sickness I owe a little money in St. Louis, and there are some judgments against me in the courts, but I will square them all in a short time. Col. Walter H. Chase is here to stay.

Bova’s fruit store Was transformed. Newspapers were pinned over the win- dows to screen the merrymaking from the curidus, the walls were festooned with artificial loaves and flowers, and Sun- in one corner a bower of roses and car-. nations sheltered a throne for the new- lyweds., On either side of them stood the best man and the bridemaid, and at their feet sat the flower giris. The banquet began at noon and ended two and a half hours later, with toasts in Chianti to the bride and bridegroom.

Frank Bova, who foot- ed the bills, estimated that the feast cost him $500. Then the young couple were escorted ceremoniously to their places in the lead of a grand march. A muscular sextet of musicians swept into the music which was scarcely to be silent. during the next 10 hours. No Honeymoon for Them. Between the dances ‘which followed, the guests filed before the bridal bower and tendered congratulations in roseate language. According to .custOm, each was rewarded with a flower from the bride’s own hands. After the grand march, the couple sat sedately on their throne and watched the festivities in their honor. Monday afternoon the guests returned with their presents, and were enter- tained at the expense of the bridegroom with anothr abundant feast, ee an- other $600. “We do ‘not believe in mE in Italy,” sald Frank Bova. “We believe in staying home after the wedding and spending the money a rin would cost in banqueting our friends.” Chiquita at the Grand-Leader, Chiquita, the diminutive Cuban dancer, her morning constitutional tomorrow in her native tropical environment.

ONE USES REVOLVER Try to Make Up in the/Sta- tion, but Bluecoats Lock Up Both. 3 | Herman Folk and his brother, Ernest, who with their respective families oc- cupy adjoining flats on the third floor of the building at 1924 and 1926 North Ninth street, sang their way into the North Market Street Police Station Sunday night and incidentally inflicted a few sharps and flats on each other's heads and faces. Herman, who is 2 years .old, and Ernest, one year younger, prided them- selves on their harmonious relationship. They were looked upon as the reincar- nation of Damon and Pythias. Neither boasted that he was a vocalist but each admitted he had a pretty fair ear for music, That is how, when they met on the long porch stretching the width of their homes, they fell into a discussion about songs. “You should teach your children to sing sentimental ballads and make them cut out ragtime,” sald Ernest, .

The subject then took a long range from the rs -to the elders them- selves. avi ak dhonenatiinen were indulged in the brothers forgot the love they bore for each other and parted in th» heat of anger. “He can't teach me anything about singing,” Herman was saying to his wife when Ernest, a revolver in his hand, ‘suddenly appeared in the door- way. **You’re not going to run things on your own scale around here,’ stout?d Ernest as he leveled his weapon at his brother and fired three shots. Mrs. Herman sprang between the two men and tried to prevent them from clinching. She struggled for Ernest's re- volver as he began beating his brother on the head with it. The fight was fast and furious while it lasted ‘and stretched from the kitchen to the nar- row back porch. Mrs. Herman screamed for ‘help. A policeman found the brothers roll- ing about in each other’s arms and was farced’.to use his night stick to pry them apart.

I took it away from him.” At the police station the brothers shook hands and said they would not prosecute each other. The police could not see it thdt way and locked both up on cross charges of disturbing the peace. When the cases were called in the Dayton Street Police Court Monday morning Judge Pollard continued them until Tuesday in order to give the po- lice an opportunity to apply for a warrant against Ernest.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 10.—An incident of the diplomatic reception at the White House, which is described as “unpleas- ant and embarrassing,” is being told. The Spanish Minister, Marquis de vil- lalobar, is said to have taken exception to the new rule which separated the ministers from the ambassadors and 1s said to have felt so much annoyance that he has reported the incident to Madrid. At the reception the President, with members of his cabinet, received the ambassadors behind enclosure which was roped off from the passageway where the ministers were. The Mar- quis desired to pass back of ‘the en- closure, and various versions of what drew somewhat ruffled.

There remains but one thing for or- ganized baseball to do to recommend itself absolutely to the sympathy of all baseball followers to grant the players representation on the National Commis- sion. This step is not a grave matter to the baseball heads. It will not even involve a surrender in any particular to demands of the players, for the or- ganization end of the commission will outvote the player two to one in a pinch. But it will give a voice to this great, mute army o€* baseball slaves which is being annually herded about like cat- tle, unable to say aye or hay agéainst the disposition made of them, and with never a thing to do but submit. It is the one false note in the base- ball scheme that this army constitutes metaphorically the Titan tail of an in- ‘significant head. It eught to wag the body but it cannot even stir a muscle. Give it a say so; a right to speak its ‘miseries and to demand its benefits, even if it be found expedient not to grant them. The right to be heard should be the privilege of all.

LANG JUST A WORKOUT MAN, CHICAGO; Jan. 10. O Sporting Editor of the Post- T Dispatch—Last night I closed for an eight-round no-deci- sion bout with Eddy Lang before the Memphis Athletic Club, on Fri- day, Jan. 21. Tuesday I leave for the South to do my training. Directly after the Lang fight I start for San Fran- cisco to finish my training for Ad Wolgast, “The Michigan Wildcat,’’ which bout is on Washington's ’ birthday. : The Lang fight will be a sort of a feeler, to see if I’m still “The !

VEN though Charles Murphy, who [- was once smart enough to buy a} world’s championship basehall outfit fot $106,000, does support that 168- game-get-the-money schedule, it . is worth a small flyer that the National League does not put it into effect. Rea- son? Just Dreyfuss. Barney does not like the long schedule at all. He likes Murphy less. Also, Barney is one good baseball diplomat, controls two votes and has friends who may help him tle up two more. Barney voted for the measure at New York. This entities” him to the privilege of putting a motion to reconsider—which otherwise he would not have enjoyed—and also time before the schedule meeting in which to make his campaign. That campaign is now in-the making; and informal information is to the ef- fect that it may prove a winner. ‘The hopes of a patient vaseball pub- lic are with Dreyfuss in this matter. The long schedule will do several things that it does not want, to-wit: Prolong an already tiresomely pro- tracted season. ; ; \ Open a season in cold and incle- mént periods. Close the season so late as to ren- der a world’s series either impossi- ble or indecisive, threugh cold weather. Make the playing of local cham- pionship series between rival Na- tional and American League teams impossible for meteorological rea- sons. Weaken interest in the game in those cities where clubs are out of the race after a few weeks have passed. Cause more, in place of fewer, conflicts between rival leagues. Fan slumbering antagonism be- - tween the rival organizations with a possibility of causing serious fric- tion. Yona There are still others, but these will do. In favor of the long schedule is the belief—a misguided one, too—that it will be a get-rich-quicker plan. | Mr. Dreyfuss loves “it” (to-wit, $—t—$) about as affectionately as even John T. Brush, which messieurs et esdames, is some ardent. And Bar- ney says there’s not only no money in 168 games, but he expects to lose by the plan if it is enforced. ; Which is good pee to carry our little meal] ticket at 5 sion. gate J Corbett in Endurance Contest... .

Chief of Police (reecy's mandate to gtop euchre games, even when given for @harity, is the most tyrannous thing St. Louls has ever witnessed, in the opinion of the Rev. Father Stephen J. Brady, pastor of St. John’s Catholic Church. Vather Brady told his congregation what he thought of the police in his Sunday morning sermon. “My residence and this church have ‘een robbed six times in the last two | “and the police have been notified each time, but they have _ - Meither recovered the stolen articles nor By caught the thieves.

Why don’t the police undertake to abolish them altogether? I suppose that if some persons were to begin overeating, the police would feel - eonstrained to stop the whole communi- ty from eating. : Card Playing Has History. “To stop the women of this town from the innocent amusement of euchre playing is a small thing. It might be worth while if they were playing for large stakes, or for any sum of mone But card playing has a long. histo back of it, and.I know of few times _ when there have been card games with- _ @ut some small stake to make them in- teresting.

Those who attend it are mostly transients from Union Btation of the ho- tels. With the exception of the Old Ca: thedral, it is about the last of the churches in the downtown district, and it has a hard time to keep alive.

Wlilling to Test, Law. “T would be willing to make a test of the law, for I believe it would be un-. constitutional to arrest any person for playing euchre, and would go ahead with the euchre next Wednesday, were it not’ for the probability that fo one would dare to attend.”’ “There were no euchre raids Sunday because there were no euchre games,” announced Police Sergeant John Mc-. Mullen, head of the art and science squad at Police Headquarters Monday, Also the “true story” of the origin of the euchre crusade was given out by Chief of Police Creecy. The chief says he’s not joking and that if any set of women attempt to hold euchres that.are in any way open to a suspi- cion of gambling the patrol wagon will be backed up to the door of the hall or house. ; ‘‘My attention was first called to these afternoon euchres,’’ said Chief Creecy, “by an anonymous letter. The writer of the letter enclosed a half column of advertisements of euchres and asked why the police allowed them to go on. ‘It’s worse than poker or horse racing,’ the writer said. Respectability No Defente. - “I am inclined to the same opinion as the writer of that letter and I told Sergeant McMullen so, He said that most of the players and conductors of the games were women of standing but I told him that didn’t make any difference and to back a patrol wagon up to the door wherever he found & game after he had given warning.” ) Sergt.
