CITY'S RICH

Assessor Brinkop Raises Property Estimates of Fraacis, Busch, Clif- ford, Priest, Wade and 200 Others.

‘CONFERS WITH OFFICIALS REGARDING PROSECUTION

Total Increase, Ninety-Nine Per Cent of Which Is Saddled on Wealthy St. Louisans Who Failed to Make Returns Jan. | 3, Is $31,000,990.

Assessments on the personal property of rich St. Louisans have been raised more than $16,000,000 beyond those of last year. Among those who will bear the heaviest share of this rscergeungsie are D. R. Francis, Adolphus Busch, Alfred Clifford, Judge H. . Priest, Festus J. Wade, John Secullin and others to the ee of more ig 200. ‘The assessment against D. R. Francis has been increased from $27,000 in 1909, to $2,000,000 for the current year. Adolphus Busch will pay on $2,000,000 instead of $600,000, as last year. Festus J. Wade and John Scullin are others whose takes are greatly in- ~ ereased. Other wealthy men whose assessments were raised by Assessor Brinkop are: Alfred E. Clifford, from $13,000 to $1,000,- 0085 James W. Allen, from $10,600 to $1,- ”; John Scullin, from $188,100 to $1.- ~ i fe 0; Henry ’S. Priest, from 2,000 to hk. $100,000. Aifred Clifford is vice-president of the Edgar Zinc Co. and lives at 22 West- moreland place. He left St. Louis Jan. 93 for a two months’ trip in California. He now is in Pasadena, according to attaches of his office in the Security Building. All these failed to make returns on their personal property before Jan. 3, last, and probably will have to accept, Assessor Brinkop’s assessment unless they question his authority to fix the valuation of their holdings. Assessor Brinkop says these assess- ments are based on investigations he has made and are not arbitrary valua- tions. He was surprised, when he be- gan his investigations, to find ghat some of the men, Whose former assessments indicated they were in moderate cir- cumstances, had millions at their com- mand, City Counselor Walther is preparing an opinion as to the right of the As- sessor to raise the assessments. All of the men who refused to go to the City Hall and make a sworn statement as to ‘thelr property were assessed by Brin- kop. , The valuations are subject to: in- crease or decrease by the Board of Equalization, which will be in session after the third Monday in March. When Festus J. Wade, president of was asked the Mercantile Trust Co., for his opinion of the action of As- sessor Brinkop, he said, “I have no opinion to express.” Assessor Brinkop has been considering prosecutions in certain cases. He has had several conferences with Circuit At- indicate whether he will proceed against the delinquents. : Increase Saddied on Rich. This augmentation of rich men’s per-' sonalty increases the total assessment of personal property to about 18 per cent more than it was 12 months ago. ‘Of this increase, the wealthy must stand _ fully 8 per cent, according to Assessor Brinkop. “The small taxpayers have been ac- customed to making fair returns and thelr assessments have not been sig- nificantly {ncreased,”” he sald, “The increase of $14,157,140 in the as- scssed valuation of real estate reflects We re- it as a goed showing and don’t t it can be called excessive.”’ thy St. Loulsans the city Gollect $375,000 more than in 1909. the total increase of $31,050,990 in city’s taxable wealth, the collec- taxes will reach $689,331.62.

Here is his summary of the kind and the amount of the city’s taxable wealth: James Campbell was the first of the St. Louis millionaires to go to the City Hall and make his return after Asses- sor Brinkop had notified the rich men that personal sworn statements must be made. Campbell fixed the value of his per- sonal property at $2,700,000, the largest return ever made by a St. Louis tax- payer. Last year Campbell paid taxes on an assessment of $450,000. For the two years previous he was assessed on $350,000 worth of personal property.

1By Wire Frem the Washington Bu- reau of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.—Gifford Pinchot’s long expected recital of his difficulties with Secretary Ballinger which resulted in formal charges and the appointment of an investigating committee and his dismissal from the service, began this afternoon when he took the.Stand and-prepared to produce evidence to substantiate his charges. Pinchot preceded his testimony with a carefully prepared statement in which he enumerated the points which he expected ta prove. Follow- ing this the questioning began and it is expected that several days will be required to complete his testimony. Statement Carefully Read. Pinchot’s statement, which he read to the committee’ carefully emphasizing the points which he deemed significant, was as follows: “What I desire to lay before the com- mittee is a conservative story of my experience with Mr. Ballinger in rela- tion to the conservation of natural re- seurces. Among several other matters there are three of principal importance to be called to your attention. “The first of these concers the policy devised and inaugurated by the las. administration of protecting againsi monopolistic control the water powef sites owned by the people. “T shall show you that Secretary Bal- linger entered his office with the clear determination to make short work of

Widow of Poisoned. Educator Hysterical When Formal C Is Read in Court.

Both of these who are suspected of murdering Prof. Vaughn with strych- nine have been arrested and prepara- tions for preliminary hearings will fol- low. It was the original intention to wait until] Monday for the second arrest of Hull, but the plans were changed early this morning. Sheriff Williams notified Sheriff Nolen of Monroe County, at Paris, that the warrant had been issued and City Marshal Stephens of Monrog City was appraised of it. It'was under- stood that Stephens would watch Hull until the warrant arrived, |: Mrs. Vaughn's outbreak was given a dramatic setting by the events of the morning, when she appeared to be in excellent spirits and talked vivaciously with those around her. the same spirit of good humor on the preceding evening. in a drizzling rain, followed by & curious crowd, apparently without 4 ushered into the private office of Sheriff Williams, where she maée ner formal surrender and waived the reading of the warrant, which ig based on an indict» ment. waiting for the arrival of the judge, she kept up her courage. But when, after the details had been arranged and the bond was read to her, citing her ar principal in the decument and flatly accusing her of the murder of her hus- band, she cried out, tottered and sank tremblingly into a chair. Then she buried her face in her band- kerchief and sobbed, her body trembling and tears streaming from her eyes. Sympathizing friends and relatives sur- ang Mrs. W. H.

given by defendants. The return of an indictment on such a charge, he said, carried with it some presumption of proof, but in this case he had invited both the prosecution and the defense to submit such proofs as they had at hand. In this way he had - been able to review much of the grand; ‘fury and Coroner’s inquest testimony in advance and was convinced that he might properly accept bail. When the question of the amount arose, both Prosecutor Rieger and At- torney Ragland stated that they were willing to leave the decision entirely to the descretion of the Court. “Tt i@ necessary to consider, in such cases,” Judge Shelton replied, ‘‘the ability of the defendant to give bond and proper bail in one case would be exorbitant in another.’’ “We are prepared to give any amount the Court may name,’’ Attorney Rag- land hastened to reply. “Then let the bail be fixed at $25,000,” Judge Shelton added. , This was arranged and the making out of the bond immediately was en- tered upon. James 8. Scott, Mayor of Monroe City, qualified for $100,000, James M. Proctor Jr., a brother, stated that he had property worth $45,000, and E. K. Yowell represented that he had $35,- These were accepted as the sureties and it was after their names had been affized that Mrs. Vaughn broke down ey of 12% miles from her im Monree City to her former here to face the charge of having murdered her husband did not depress Mra. Vaugh>. There was no abatement of her accustomed animation. Her vi- vacity seemed rather to increase than diminish as the train neared Kirksville, formerly the scene of. her social tri- umph, now to be the scene of her ar- ent. The zest of adventure was upon her as she stood on the platform of the , — _ ~Pullmen when it stopped two blocks »- from-the Kirksville depot to circumvent - the erowd waiting there to see her. “Won't it be eute if we can fool them,”’ she said gleefully, and, caution- ing the others to be careful on account of the lack of lights, she sprang lightly to the ground and ran across to a wait- ing taxicab. She laughed aloud as the automobile whiszed away. Departure a Quict One. Mrs. Vaughn’s departure from Monroe City was not noticed, except by those who chanced to be looking from their windows along the six blocks that she and her brother, David Procter, trav- ersed on their way from the Procter home té the Wabash depot, and the few who arrived or departed on the train. It was not known in Monroe City that she was going away. Her depart- -ure without attracting much attention was facilitated by the proximity of her home to the depot. She had been in readiness throughout the day, and she ana her brother had been ir frequent ication with Attorney John C. Her little daugh- ter, Winifred, had gone gleefully away to spend a couple of days with her lit- tle cousins at the home of her ‘Uncle Jim” in the country. It had a mattér of remonstrance on the part of Winifred that the depart- ure of her mother had: been so long delayed. Mrs. Vaughn said several days ago that she was likely to take a trip to Kirksville soon, and that when she did she would let Winifred go to Uncle Jim. And Winifred was overjoyed when Mrs. Vaughn told her yesterday that the time had come for her to go to Kirksville. She did not know that Mrs. Vaughn was goine there to an- ewer te an indictment in connection with the death of her father. Chate With Brother: on Way. When at 4 o'clock Attorney Mills called up and told Mrs. Vaughn that she had better come to Kirksville she Was ready in a moment. She kissed her weeping mother good-by, and told her not to worry, and she and her brother went leisurely. to the depot. Mrs. Vaughh wote-a dlack dress and the short mourning vell, -which she has worn since the death of her husband. was perfectly composed. As she alked along she talked with her broth- * er as if they were going on a pleasure trip. In the coach on the way to this city she sat with her brother, James Proc- tor, who with her uncle, Jathes S. Scott, _ mayor of Monroe City, had met them at

auto and enter it. It was then 8:15 o’ clock. The merry laughter of Mrs. Vaughn mingled with the honk of the horn asy the machine sped toward thé® lights in the -business part of the town. It turned north into Franklin street, past the Courthouse, where the light: still gieamed from the windows of the grand jury room, swung into Harrison street and stopped in front of the office of Higby & Mills, the Kirksville attorneys of Dr. James R. Hull and also attorneys for Mrs. Vaughn. Tears at Friend’s Greeting. Mrs. Vaughn sprang lightly from the auto and hurried into the office. At- torney Higby was waiting there. A moment later Mrs. W. H. Clark entered and threw her arms around Mrs. Vaughn. The sympathy and encourage- ment expressed in the caress and the words of Mrs. Clark, who is an old friend, evoked the only emotion shown by Mrs. Vaughn Since she left her home in Monroe City. She cried softly for a moment, but quickly regained her good spirits. The auto was sent away and for an hour Mrs. Vaughn was in conference with her attorneys. She spent the night at the home of friends. It was not un- til she had been an hour in’Kirksville that it became known that a warrant for her arrest had been issued directly after the grand jury made its report at 4:40 o’clock. It was not known whether there had been indictments returned, but the utmost secrecy had been maintained by Prosecuting Attorney Rieger. But he had made the significant statement that the report of tke jury would not: be made public unt after arrests had deen made.

DOG THAT WAS FARS FOR DEAF MUTES MISSING O’Briens Offer $10 Reward for Return of ‘Poodle”’ They Sé@fely Need.

No questions will be asked and $10 reward will be given to the person who “Poodle” to the home: of Mr. James O’Brien, 4445 Easton avenue. The dog disappeared tliast Sunday. The O’Briens are deaf-mutes. A greater material misfortune for the afflicted O’Briens than the loss” of Poodle could hardly befall them.. Though only a very s8mail and fuzzy French cur, Poodle was the major domo of the deaf-mutes’ household, which in- cludes James Jr., 5 years old. Being u half year older than James Jr., Poodle felt his responsibility, and the chief care of the child devolved on the dog. Not only did Poodle have the care 3f James Jr. on his shoulders; for five years he had guarded the man and woman as well. O’Brien’s employment at the Finney avenue street car parns forces him to be at work early in the mornings. Like all other laboring in- dividuals, James needs something to awaken him. Being deaf, the alarra clock would not fill the bill. Mrs. O’Brien: being deaf, neither wohid the alarm clock awaken her. But it would awaken Poodle. Every morning Poodle was the first up. The alarm would scarcely begin to ring when he would start clawing at the bed covers. He gave the O’Briens no rest until he saw them well started on the day’s work. Nothing would keep Poodle quiet while he saw anyone sleeping after the bell rang in the morning. when anyone was sick in the house Poodle always knew where to fird te doctor. He seemed almost to under- stand the deaf-mute language. At & sign from O’Brien or his wife, he knew whether it was the physician, the grocer or the butcher to whom he was to go. If there was a knock at the door Poodle informed Mrs. O’Brien by claw- ing at her dress and then running to the door ahead of her. If water was turned on in another room and 4.fs. U Brien could not hear it Poodle told her about it. He insisted on his de- mands and would nev@r be quieted until they were satisfied. When James Jr. was younger and would cry and his mother could not hear him, it was Foodle who would bring Mrs. O’Brien the information that the baby was shouting for attention. “We would give anything to get Poodle back,”’ Mrs. O’Brien, through an interpreter, told a Post-Dispatch re- porter Saturday. “We have offered a $10 reward, but anything we have that will satisfy the one who has Poodle, we will give for him.” There's no success in life without a live liver.

. James E. Bathgate Notifies New Jersey Prosecutor He Will Appear. PROSECUTION NO JOKE Accused Magnates Will Be Given Ten Days and Will Then Be Arrested. ~ | By Leased Wirc From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Feb. 26.—James BD. Bath- gate is the first of the directors of the Beef Trust indicted yesterday by the Hudson County grand jury in Jersey City to voluntarily surrender to the prosecuting authorities. Through his counsel, James 8. Hud- speth of Jersey City, Mr. Bathgate no- tified Prosecutor Garven that he will not leavé the jurisdiction of the state, and was to be found at any time at his home, 25 Berkeley avenue, Orange. Mr. Hudspeth said that if it was con- venient to the prosecutor, Mr. Bathgate would appear for for pleading Monday. Mr. Bathgate is a Newark meat oper- ator and the New Jersey representative on the board of directors of one of the indicted companies. “The law of the State of New Jer- sey is not a joke,” said Assistant Prosecutor James F. Clarke of Hud- son County to the Post-Dispatch re- porter today. “It has not the name of being used for what some eminent persons at the Chicago bar call ‘Grand Stand Purposes.’ The Beef Trust prosecution ts thoroughly in earnest. It is not based on strained constructions of the law or on pos- sibly faulty special legislation.” Mr. Clarke said that. there would be no immnrediate arrests of the million- aires who were indicted. ‘We shall give them 10 days to ap- pear here and plead to the indictments yoluntarily,”’ he said. “If they do not make an appearance within 10 days, however, we shall certainly issue capi- ases and cause the arrests, in Chicago or anywhere else in the United States where we may find the accused men.” Prosecutor Garven will appear before Supreme Court Justice Swayze in Tren- ton, next week and ask that the Na- tional Packing Co.’s charter be nullil- fied on the ground that it has violated the Staie’s laws. BEEF INDICTMENTS ARE TAKEN AS JOKE BY J. OGDEN ARMOUR Special to the Post-Dispatch. ‘ CHICAGO, Feb. 26.—‘‘It seems to be the popular thing now to take a whack at the packers,” said J. Ogden Armour, president of Armour & Co., and a direc- tor of the National Packing Co., when shown a report of his indictment in New Jersey yesterday. ‘All I know about this matter is what I have read in the papers, and there is nothing for me to say about it. I must refer you to my attorneys.” Edward Tilden, president of the Na- tional Packing Co., refused to discuss the indictments. The Federal grand jury yesterday fin- ished its fifth week of investigation into the business methods of Chicago pack- “rs and adjourned until next Monday morning. It is expected the taking of tes- timony will be concluded next week and the grand jury then will adjourn for two weeks before voting on the ques- tion of indictments. ~—— When Renting Autos, Remember Excelsior Auto Co. rents the best only.

MAN DRINKS WHISKY ON A WAGER, DIES John Cisler’s death in the hallway of Joseph Trantina’s saloon, at Thirteenth and Carroll streets, was caused by @ large quantity of whisky and beer drunk on a& wager, according to testimony given Saturday at the Coroner’s in- quest. The inquest was adjourned until Mon- day in order to get witnesses to the drinking bout, and to inquire into the possibility of criminal prosecution in connection with the case. William Logner testified Saturday that John Kozel said Cisler was in Trantina’s saloon Thursday afternoon Urinking heavily, and that, after he had drunk to excess, a wager was made as to how much more he could drink. Logner quoted Kozel as relating that # cents worth of whisky and a bucket of beer were purchased from Cisler, and that he drank them all, then fell in a stupor. i Kozel denied having. made the state- ment with which Logner credited him.

that policy; that he reversed it so fat as he was allowed to do; that he re- stored the power sites to entry without the remotest idea of rewithdrawing being an enemy of the policy of con- servation, he capped the climax by giv- ing to the President himself an explana- tion of his conduct that was essentially faise. Has Faith in Glavis. “The second has to do with my con- nection as a Government officer with the Cunningham coal cases and with the Glavis charges. I shall show you how the forest service became involved in these cases and how Giavis submit- ted his facts to me. I believed then, as I believe now, that he told the truth. I am convinced now, as “I was when he came to me, that Glavis was @ faithful public servant and thet the Mr. Ballinber has been unfaithful to hig trust as @ servant of the people and as the guardian of public property of enormous value. . “I shall show you that since I learned the facts you have heard from Glavis and others, which I am about to lay be- fore you, I have acted steadily in the light of them, as it was my duty both as a public officer and as a citizen, to do. I shall show you that in pursuance of that duty I laid before the Presi- dent, both by word of mouth and in a letter last November, a statement of my conviction that Secretary Ballinger has been a dangerous enemy to con- servation. Baliinger’s Stateyient False, “T shall show you that this letter was submitted by the President to Mr. Bal- linger and as part of his reply he laid before the President a statement con- cerning the Cunningham Coal cases. which statement is shown by indisputed documentary evidence to be absolutely false in three essential particulars. It will then appear that Mr. Ballinger wil- fully deceived the President and was disloyal to him. “The third principal matter fs con- cerned with the attitude of this Gov- ernment in law and administrative practice toward the conservation of the natural resources belonging to the people. “I desire to show you that the story of Glavis’ courageous and suc- cessful fight to protect the property of the people, which ended in his dis- missal without a hearing, is but & single chapter in the history of the public lands, “I shall show you that under our present law and practice. the more difficult task falls on those who would protect the public property and not on those who would despoil it, and that under the present system the betrayal into monopolistic control of what belongs to all of ts is made easy and, often in the practice, inev- itable, Fundamental Change “The imperative duty country is not merely to get rid of an unfaithful public servant. A far more important duty is to bring about a fundamental change in the law and the practice toward conservation, to prevent for the future what has been in the past the almost inevitable sac- rifice of the public welfare and to make possible hereafter the utilization of the natural resources and the natural advantages for the benefit of all the people instead of merely for the profit of a few. “When this story has been told and the witnesses whom I shall ask you to call have been heard, you will realize that the interests of the people are not safe in Mr. Ballinger’s hands and that the country will demand of this com-" mittee a verdict in harmony with the general conviction that the Secretary of the Interior has been unfaithful both to the public, whose property he has endangered, and to the President, whom he has deceived.’’ MRS. B. W. NEWTON OVERCOME BY SMOKE AT FIRE IN HOME Mrs. Bertram W. Newton, wife of Attorney B. W. Newton, was over- come by smoke while attempting to put out a fire which originated in a barrel of rubbish in the basement of the La Tosca apartments, 4120 Mor- gan street, Friday. . She was revived by Dr. J. F, Gallagher and was not seriously injured. The fire was discovered by Claud Boucher of 4118 Morgan street at 10:40 @ m. He telephoned for the fire department and assisted in fight- ing the flames. Mrs. Newton, who is a tenant on the ground floor, rushed to the basement to locate the fire, but the dense smoke was more than she could stand.

Reginald von Keller, fashion dictator for men of the American Magazine, who is in K St. Louis talling tle tallors what they must make -men wear, one button is all that will be permitted on a man’s coat. ; It's quite a hop from the back of an elephant to the chest of a pouter pigeon but that’s what Reginald says is going to happen. For the button, abetted by a tightening of the garment under the arms and the elimination of shoulder padding, will throw the lapels of the eoat wide and force the chest to a prominence that will make the new lightweight champion think the world has been suddenly filled with challeng- ers. Cape Not So Revolutionary. St. Louisans cannot spend 360,000 on grand opera and expect to get away without facing some results. One of the results is here. It is the new opera cape which all masculine opera lovers should wear—at least that is what you are told in Parlor F of the Planters Hotel where Reginald is holding forth. A. Reginald-von Keller’s manner is as imposing as' has name. He is making a tour of the country to explain to the tallors in different cities what fashions _ they should urge upon their customers. An opera cape doesn’t sound so rev- olutionary, and yet in the things it suggests it is. Because wealthy 8t. Lowlisans have discarded their fur-col- lared coats, and donned the opera cape; they will have no defense to of- fer against those urging them to have “second men’ on the boxes of thei broughams and their limousines.

| “FAUST FRID NIGHT'S BILL BY ~ FRENGH SINGERS to Face Trial. \ Spevial to the Post-Dispatch. KANSAS CITY, Mo., Feb. 26.—Farm- ers are out of their element when they begin tinkering with high finance, in the opinion of Byron L. Church, presi- dent of the Bank of Holyrood, Kan., who was arrested here yesterday on 4 charge of irregularities in the manage- ment of the institution to the extent of approximately $100,000. He is to be taken back to Holyrood. by Sheriff Reardon of Ellsworth today. Church, in a statement made to the police, told how, after years of toil as a farmer, he had amassed a fortune, only to lose it In the world of finance through the irregularities of a relative he had placed in a. position of trust. By paying the shortages, amounting to $100,000, the bank was kept open. Maxwell Church, a son of Byron Church, and F. W. Thomas, a nephew of the former president, both at one time cashiers of the bank, are being sought by J. N. Dolley, Bank Commis- sioner of Kansas, who caused President Church's arrest. Bought Interest in Bank. Byron Church in his statement told of moving to Holyrood 33 years ago. He became rich, and 20 years ago he bought a controlling interest in the town bank. “A nephew of mine was made cashier of the bank,” he said, ‘‘and practically controlled it. Three years ago I found that my nephew had been bucking the grain market in Wichita and Kansas City and that he was $65,000 short at the bank. He ran away, and I made the shortage good out of my own pocket. Then I installed my son, Maxwell Cuurch, as cashier. “About three months ago an old cer- tificate of deposit, issued by my nephew about three years ago came back to Being Mishandled. | Although the Police Board found Po- liceman Thomas McDonnell, brother of Inspector McDonnell, guilty of every charge made against him except calling Policeman Henry Beerman a liar, jt re- served its decision. It is understood in police circles that the board will privately investigate fur- ther into. the trouble McDonnell and Beerman had relative to the exposure of ‘the shortage in the Police Relief As- sociation. Beerman is a member of the Executive Board of the association and in 19088 was a member of the Board of Trustees. McDonnell testified at the session I‘riday afternoon that some time ago he was discussing the association short- its best and needs attention, and the careful parent will be prompt to see that proper attention is given.

Those unsightly pimples and blotches on your children’s faces indicate an incorrect condition of the blood and sometimes in the lives of our chil- dren, the blood. runs wild and riot through the system, depositing its germs, poison or otherwise, wherever it courses. There is the time when children turn to young women and manhood. The blood is finding new channels and new opportunities, and strange avenues, carrying with it good or ill, whatever it contains. When the uge in the assembly room of the station, } blood is pure, clean and unvitiated und was speaking about ihe price paid for Forest Park Highlands, where the annual benefit entertainment was held. He said $5000 was paid for Forest Park Highlands, while West End Heights, only a mile further west, could have been rented for $200 for the week. McDonnell volunteered to tell of some trouble he had with Beerman about five months ago, but the board would not hear it. Brother Is Excused. Inspector McDonnell asked to be ex- cused from acting as prosecutor, in the case and his request was granted. President Laird appointed Sergt. Tier- ney to act in that capacity during the trial. Sergt. Thomas Hagerty of the Carr Street District was saved from a re- duction to patrolman because of his fine record and the good word spoken by Capt. Schoppe. Hagerty was charged with disobedience of orders. Policeman John Derr was fined $25 for the young people’sMealth is good, as evidenced in the clear eye, the elastic step and the beautiful ‘skin.

NEW JERSEY TURNS. New Jersey indicting trust officials and inves- tigating conspiracies in restraint of trade pre- sents a study in contradictions. Like the rest of the country, Jersey has been a sufferer from } high prices, but, unlike the rest, she has been the beneficiary of trust gains. When the tariff has failed of its maternal duty, Jersey has volunteered to act as foster mother of the trusts, She has nursed and encouraged * them and from them she draws an income of 3 ; >? ’ . rT K © on - % . * * a * “a we, guch proportions that State tex budgets are un- known. The trusts have supported Jersey as well as she has supported them and always there has been a surplus in the trearury to spend for good roads and extra improvements. But Jersey, in an evil day, fell before the fad for anti-trust laws and made one forbidding con- spiracjes in restraimt of trade by the organiza- tions she had created for tnat very purpose. The time must have come whw1 the outgo in high prices exceeded the income in annual fees. If Jersey complains the situation must be serious i "4 - $ndeed. Other states have ha‘ none of the gains and they grumble as a matter of right. They have all suffered because Jersey has granted let- ters of marque to all comers. Now they watch Jersey's contortions with interest. What they don’t understand is Jersey’s change of policy. Why should she seek to punish the offenders instead of demanding a larger share of the swag? = = = i i A Presently there won’t be enough gangsters left to conduct court affairs. ° = = =

= =. |S THE SENATOR FROM MISSISSIPPI. At’ us lift our hats to the departing Senator from Mississippi. Indeed, if our hearts be gentle ~ and kind, they also may be lifted as we salute ‘him, hail and farewell. Because of a fight among younger men for senatorial honors, he came from the retirement of his country home into the ‘light of the national capitol. With the close of the strife he gives way to the young victor and retires again to his flelds. His day in the Sen- ate was as short as the life of a summer’s rose; but it has left a memory that is as sweet as its perfume. Col. Gordon has mellowed into a serene old age that is well nigh idvally perfect. Born heir to 10,000 acres and nearly a thousand slaves, sharing during his manhood in one of the flercest P REFORMERS AND. ROUGHNECKS. Citizens of 8t. Louis voted $3,500,000 to abolish every vestige of bridge tolls through the build ing of a free municipal bridge which would wipe out the artificial barrier erected between Bt. Louis and the Hast by the bridge and terminal combine.| Sicteen members of the House of Delegates voted to perpetuate the bridge tolls by voting to grant, without the abolition of the arbitrary, ez- tensive franchise rights to the Terminal com- bine which maintains the tollgate. They voted to increase the power and privileges of a combine which has robbed St. Louis of millions and re- fuses to abandon the policy of robbery. Speaker. Rombauer, who organized the House Terminal combine and acted as its manager and whipperin for the benefit of the combine was elected as an opponent of public service monop- oly oppression. His voice was loudest in the cam- paign denunciation of predatory public utility corporations. Mr. Rombauer and the wavering and tun- wavering Republican members of the com, bine who joined with the remnant of the Democratic gang in support of the Terminal bill, were nominated for the avowed purpose of wip- ing out combines and reforming the House of Delegates. These Republican delegates picked by the Republican organization, headed by Boss Howe ostensibly to reform the House, are now as- sociated with the Democratic gang members who were denounced by them and their party asso- ciates as unfit for public service. Delegates Gold- en, Gallagher and Brennan of the despised and re- jected Democratic combine are members of the Rombauer Terminal combine. Repubdlican re- formers and Democratic roughnecks have got to- gether on common ground in defense of pred- atory interests. The strike has kept Philadelphia's traction company so busy that it has had scarcely any time at all to devote to running the municipal- ity.

SS = i CHANTECLER HATS. Alas, poor Rostand! Not for him Is it the limit to be charged with flightiness and plagiar- ism. The millinery world, distracted by search for novelty, is about to purloin his glory and debauch his fame. Not as a superior product of poetic ecstacy is “Chantecler” to come into the vernacular, but as the name of a hat. Even the prescience of genius was unequal to the task of foreseeing this. | The fashion creators have been waiting this opportunity for years. They have been robbing henroosts right and left, but kept it quiet. The proud adornments of the barnyard kings have been masquerading among satins, velvets, ostrich plumes and egrets, but never before has theirf identity been admitted. Imagine “rooster tails” as a confession of origin when labeled $21.98 and displayed in a shop window. But “Chantecler” is different. It is an aristo- cratic word. Under its leadership pinions and pendicles will come into their own and the ter- minology of the chicken shed will blaze a tan- gled path into the millinery shop and high so- ciety. More than ever will the chicken be honored. Rhode Island Reds will, however, lose the dis- tinction of coming to marketable weight in ten weeks, and White Leghorns will not stand su- preme through superiority of eggs. There will be a change. Blood wattles, rose combs and

liance will come the Franco-Italian alliance, the Slav-Hungarian alliance, the Jewish-Polish al- liance, the Chinese-Japanese alliance and the In- dian-African alliance. 7 a A Ae

I would deem myself delinquent and derelict were I to fail in expressing my conviction of the ultimate intention of the Terminal combine, should they suc- ceed with the ‘‘Ranken bill,"”” to next obtain posses- sion of our levee, or water front, and thereby block- ade, bottle and box up the people from their law- ful right of free access to the river, and obstruct our river interests.

/ Cold Cars Cause Pneumonia. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch, For heaven's sake, get after the Transit company for not heating its cars. At 7:30 this morning I en- tered an eastbound Page avenue car at Clara, having with me a reliable thermometer. At Taylor avenue, by which time the mercury reliably indicated the tem- perature of the car, it showed 8 degrees above zero! Think of it, 24 degrees below the freezing point! As seems to be the custom, the fire had not been started in the stove until the car was sent out. Small wonder we had 57 deaths from pneumonia in one week. Many of them were certainly traceable to the Transit com- pany’s criminal indifference and neglect toward the comfort of its patrons. In thus freezing the passen- gers to save a little fuél.and labor, that corporation is daily sending pneumonia victirns to their graves. A visit to any of their car barns these cold mornings will verify this charge. Shame on this city for per- mitting it, on the public .vr their dumb submission, and on our law-making bodies for not protecting their constituents. Will you not use your powerfu] influ- ence to secure the introduction and passage of an ordinance to remedy this crying abuse? W. H. BELT. Quantitative Value of Money. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Verily time eveneth all things. Taft and the Re- publican editors are now using the Bryan theory of money, which they denounced in 1896, to relieve their party of responsibility for the present high cost of liv- ing. They say that gold did it; that the big increase in its production has lowered its value greatly; that more of it must be given to buy other things and that consequently prices are high. Bryan said in 1896 that the scarcity of gold, due to the increased demand for it caused by the demonetization of silver, raised the value of gold greatly; that less of it need be given to buy other things and that consequently prices were low. This is the quantitative theory of maney which was denounced in 1896 as the climax of all financial heresies and delusions. JEWEL CONSISTENCY. ‘ \ Keep Children at School. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch, Your exposure of the school of vice is worth grave consideration. What will become of the young girls of St. Louis when at the age of 12, 14 and 15 they are adepts in immorality? The men who have been conducting such a place should receive severe punish- ment. Let us turn our attention to the people around us and improve the morals of the young before we attempt to convert the poor people of other countries. Excellent work is being done by the attendance of- ficers, but the School Board should have at least two- thirds more than they have at present employed. The plea is that they have not sufficient funds for that purpose. Let the board cut out swimming pools, rest rooms and theaters in the extravagant high schools they are building and there certainly would be sufficient money to employ more attendance of-

DAYS OF FULFILLMENT. From the New York World. Mr. Taft occupies the greatest admin- istrative office on earth. He has power. Congress has power. In his own right he can do things that are worth doing. With the assistance of Congress, limited only by the Constitution, he can almost perform miracles of good govern- ment, economy and _ justice. His work is in Washington. It is serious work. It is fighting work. It does not admit .of compromise. It cannot be carried on in a sleeping car, in a New York banquet hall or in royal suites of big hotels. It is true the people like to see and hear their Presidents, but they like much more to know that they are de- voted to service and to duty. They like to discuss with their Presidents great public questions, but they know that Congress is the representative body to which these problems should be #ub- mitted and by which they should be JUST A MINUTE.

Yet his fine disposition has freed it- self of every trace of bitterness. He cherishes no hatred against the triumphant Yankee; no scorn for the freed slave. In a farewell speech of really exquisite delicacy and sentiment, he read to the listening Senate a poem to “Black Mam- my” as evidence of his love for thé negro, and invited to his home a Senator who but a day or two before had vehemently denounced Robert B. Lee, as sign of a grace that forgives even in- tolerance. : Hail and) farewell, gracious gentleman of Mis- sissippi! Short as has been your service, it will be more memorable in the hearts of men of this generation than that of some who have been in the Senate for many dull, dead, worthless years. "=

A Massachusetts member has told Congress the tariff didn’t do it, the Danes being useless for |, guch purposes since Dr. Cook got his.

' RETALIATION OR RECIPROCITY. Senator Aldrich calls for a commission to in- vestigate the cost of Government. This is a new lead but it promises much. If we are to investi- gate the rise in prices and the increased cost of living why not also inquire into the rise in the Governmental budgets and the increased cost of tation in approving the project, is the fact that it is proposed by Aldrich. Why is the old pirate Hitt may | not every thirsty citizen join « lid club or pa- a

barnyard with nothing to contribute to millin- ery. The Games and Black Spanish will be the lords of gallinacéous grandeur. “Chantecler” as a poetic drama isin a bad way. Reference to it by title will require a qualifying phrase. And so genius loses again. But there may be popular gain. What is to prevent eco- nomic housewives from clubbing together, buy- ing an incubator and raising their own millin- ery? a + rere Two $11,Cv0,000 battleships are called for by the naval appropriation bill—or something like the profits from a reformed postoffice depart- ment for a month.

Washington dispatches announce that among the various banquets given in that city to com- memorate Washington’s birthday was one in which the German and the Irish societies of the city united. No report is given of what meats or wines were served, nor of what oratory flowed forth in an effluence of soul and smoke after the coffee; but all must have been rich and rare. We are told only that in the end the happy ban- queters resolved to arrange forthwith an Irish- German alliance dedicated to three propositions— first, “to oppose all entangling alliances;” sec- ond, “to oppose further drastic restrictions of immigration;” third, “to oppose all sumptuary{ legislation or interference with the rights of in- dividuals,” We have here an {illustration of the loveliness of after-dinner politics when through a mingling of whisky and beer, Teuton and Kelt forget their ancient feuds and resolve to live together like good fellows in the May time. A more genial platform could not have been devised. It affirms nothing. It opposes only what all true souls op- pose. Everybody can drink a bumper to it. Who cept the Chinaman, and tolerant to him?

If al] had free access to the production of wealth and received the full product we could all make $2500 or any por- tion thereof we would like.. With Socialism the pro- ductive power will tremendously increase, even to the extent that to produce enough to keep the body in good condition would only require a small portion of the day and no more exercise than is requireq to thereby keep the body in good condition. Why can- not we have it so? Is fit not desirable? Will any- pody lose anything thereby? What will be lost? SIXTY. Foolish Leniency. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Far be it from me to criticize our Honorable Po- lice Court Judges, but—The other day the Chief of Police issued an order for the arrest of all per- sons caught smoking in garages. In the course of events a chauffeur was taken into custody on the charge. He Was arraigned in the Clark Avenue Court and fined $2% and costs. Then fine was stayed on promise of. refraining from smoking around ma- chines in future. Now every other chauffeur caught smoking in garages—if they are—will have a right to expect to be dealt with as leniently as Mr. First Offender. The moral effect of a stiff fine in a test case is lost. Another ounce of prevention is sacri- ficed for the pound of cure in prospect. The stable door will be locked after the horse is stolen, or, to be more exact, the fires in, the garage will be ex- tinguished when the automobile is blown up. Cc. R. POINT. Where Would Lincoln Be? To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Stephen Taylor Dekin says that if Lincoln was alive ‘today that he would unite with the 6,000,000 and lead the procession arm in arm with w. J. mpromising po- gition. Lincoln said: “In the early days of our race the Almighty said to the first of our ancestors: ‘In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread,’ and since then, with the exception of light and air of bas id by Hae : . he a <a 2 Fe IRR Ee “ x, _ 4 J Pa im bad Fle sv at pe. ease wiles. § pele” he, 878 MRS 13 ee Th. As * see oe x 3 aioe Ao Mae are and they turn their attention to other things. The man chosen is President then or he is nothing. We believe that Mr. Taft may easily become a great President, but he will not reach that eminence if he travels too much, or talks too much, or is too conciliatory, or is too much the friend of everybody, or gives too much heed to what is said about him. He has al- most a genius of good nature. Coupled with a genius of work and determina- tion, that gift should carry him far. The smiling days of promise have passed. These are the gray days of stern fulfillment and of solemn realiza- tion.

THE “THIRD DEGREE.” From the Brooklyn Standard-Union. Chief of Police Kohler of Cleveland, who has won some fame as a police officer, has issued an order in which he states that under no circumstances will third degree methods be allowed in the department. This ig a marked advance over the attitude of most police heads in this country, and it is devoutly hoped that the good example which Chief Kohler has set will be followed by oth- ers who have jurisdiction over arrested persons. It is very generally believed that the police of this city take undue advantage of prisoners, and by cs which are disgraceful, induce them to make statements which are used against them at the trial. Of course, no adult citizen with any knowledge of his rights can be cajoled or threatened into talk- ing, but it happens that most of those from whom the police wish to extract information have never learned just how far the law permits the authorities to go in an informal inquisition. Foreigners particularly suffer by reason of the third degree. ~ a PRECEDENT FOR THE TERMINAL. From the Springfeld Republican. New York State still has her toll roads, &8 appears by the action of the

Henry Savage Landor says that the people of Thibet are of an almost incredible cowardice, indescribably dirty and cruel, combining the ugli- hess of a superstitious barbarism with the vices that are supposed to be the pecuilar appanage of civiliza- tion. But the women are superior to the men and, curiously enough, more courageous. “The Thibetan fe- male, whether she be a lady, a shep- herdess or a brigandess, cannot be said to be prepossessing. In fact, it was not my luck to see a single good- looking woman in the country, al- though I saw women who were less ugly than others. Anyhow, with the accumulated filth that from birth is undisturbed by soap, scrubbing or bathing; with nose, cheeks and fore- head smeared with biack ointment to in the wind; and with the unpleasant oaor that emanates from never-changed clothes, the Thibetan woman is, at her best, repulsive - to European taste.” LOVE LETTERS? Before the customer paid his bill the hotel stenographer tore several pages out of her note book and hand- ed them to him. “Only the notes of his letters,’ she said to the next cus- tomer. “He is one of the cautious kind. There are not many like him. About once in six months somebody comes along who keeps such a watch- ful eye on his correspondence that he won't even let a stenographer keep his notes. Of course, it is nothing to us and we always give them up when asked to. I don’t know what the cautious folk do with them. Destroy them, maybe. Anyhow, there is no record of foolish utterances left in the stenographer’s books.” — New York Sun.

MGOVERN WILL NEED HIS SPEED IN M. A. C. BOUT

Clever Little Boxer Should Have Hard Time Dodging Bobby Gresham’s Knockout Punch.

* v= oe souri A. C. amateur boxing show, five bouts in all. The two contests that will vie for the honor of the “‘star’’ bout of the. even- ing will bring together Benny McGov- ern and Bob Gresham, both of the Mis- ‘sourl A. C., at 110 pounds, and Charley Palwitz and Jack Shelton at 125 pounds. All of these men are good boxers, and, with the possible exception of McGovern, terrific punchers. ‘McGovern, on the ‘contrary, is generally given credit for “being the most scientific boxer developed - “4m either the professional or amateur fanks in the vicinity of St. Louis in many years. His opponent tonight, Gresham, holds ‘g@ decision over Johnny Coulon of Chi- cago, and Coulon at present claims the professional bantamweight champion- ship. It was only a bad decision that -yobbed Gresham out of the National A. A. U. 10-pound championship at San Francisco. Gresham is not as fast on “his feet as little McGovern, but Gresham has a bona fide knockout punch in a short right upper cut to the jaw that has won the medal for him in many bouts. Dalwitz and .Shelton are old rivals. *Palwitz is a slashing fighter, fast and ‘clever. In Shelton he will find a boy whe only comes back the harder when » He is really “stung’’ with a good punch. Shelton’s hands are not in the best of ' rim, but, nevertheless, if he is able WO of the best amateur boxing bouts of the season, and another contest in which there should be action from start to finish, and no mean dis- play of skill with the padded mitts as well, will be put on at the Mis- at the club, Saturday aight.

j Eastern Tracks Pool Receipts to” Offset. Loss NEW YORK, Feb. 2.—Four of the big racetracks around New York have pooled interests for the coming season. They are Brighton, Empire City, Aque- duct and Jamaica. 'As a result of their agreement the four associations will divide up the profits or lesses that may result from the 82 days of sport allot- ted them. It appears that the present puzzle over the allotment of dates made this combination advisable. The idea orig- inated from the fact that Sheepshead, Gravesend and Belmont have been poo!- ing their holiday receipts on certain of the season’s big days. When it was found that these big tracks insisted on having the usual quota of dates, including the holidays, and that Saratoga demanded at least 21 days, while Empire City and Brigh- ton declined to hold fall meetings, it was suggested that the four associations named combine for mutual protection. The track owners declare that they do not expect racing to prove a profit- able investment this year. - - , BILLIARDS...

Browns’ New Manager Does Not Expect His Men to Dream Baseball.

By JAMES CRUSINBERRY. ACK O’CONNOR, new leader of the J Browns, is a practical psychologist. But Jack doesn’t know it and if some Ph. D. were to tell him of it the chances are the new maneger would worry over it more than over the prob- lem of procuring another catcher for his ball club. One need not be a student of psychol- ogy to be a philosopher. Jack’s philos- ophy was developed in fighting battles’ on the ball field year after year and mingling with baliplayers until he has come to know that their minds need training just as much as their arms and legs. Jack will introduce both psychical and physical methods of training on the Browns this year, and his course of les- sons will have been evolved from long and practical experience. It may be a bit startling to some of the fans, but one of his courses in psy- chology is nothing more than a simple poker game. “A poker game is a good thing for 4 ball club,” said Jack recently, “and l wouldn’t think of barring my players from that form of pleasure.” Now Jack had a deeper view of that poker game than the mere pleasure and excitement of it all. He wasn’t think- ing of all the gain or loss that might come from it. He was thinking of the relaxation from baseball that most play- ers can get In the little game of 2%-cent limit. There’s nothing that will make 4 ballplayer forget his batting average, or his errors so quickly as a good game of poker, and that’s the reason O’Connor prescribes it as a coupse in his school. Of course @ poker game could be the undoing of a ball club were it permitted to be run without restrictions. When the ball player begins to think first of poker and then of baseball, it’s time to abolish poker. But a limit game that will allow no one to win or lose any great amount of his earnings serves as a mind cure. It tends to relaxation. It’s a wise ball player that can leave baseball at the park when the game ifs over, O’Connor thinks. on the slab. One of the great men of baseball to- day is Mordecai Brown, the clever three- fingered pitcher of the Chicago Cubs, and undoubtedly much of his success is due to his mentality. In a game of ball his mind is as active as his right arm. When the game’s over he relaxes into a state of mental and physical free- dom. He's ready for a poker game, a show or a picnic, and he doesn’t think of baseball again until he puts his toé] At the close of the season of 1908 the Cubs would not have been champions were it not for Brown’s work. It will be. remefhbered the Chicago club had to journey all the way to New York to play off that tie game with the Giants to decide the pennant. Naturally it would be a trying trip. On the train the play- ers were nervous and irritable. The mental strain was telling. Brownie start- ed a poker game. Seven of the players Sat in it. Most of the others looked on. The game with the Giants was forgotten for the time, and before the men realized it they were in Gotham and hustling into their uniforms for the great bat- tle. They hadn’t had an opportunity to get nervous over the contest. . It will also be remembered that things broke badly for the Cubs at the start* of that game. Reulbach was pitching and the Giants began hitting the ball. Chance then played his trump card. He took “Big. Ed’ out of the box and put in Brown, thdugh the latter was not physically at his best. But Brownie went in, stopped te hitting and the Cubs then started a batting rally and won thre battle. O'Connor is t.e type of man that can relax. Though he never carried the bur- den of managing a big league team, he’s been on the diamond long enough to know all. its cares. Jimmy_ McAleer was'a hard loser. He was a cyclone after losing a tough game, and as gay as a sunbeam when luck was with him. McAleer knew baseball, but he didn’t know psychology. He loved a poker game after victory, when it was least needed. After a trying defeat he hated everything. Of course "there are other methods of relaxation than poker. George Stone never plays cards, but he can have the time of his life looking out of a car window. Jimmy Stephens never sat in & game, but he'li sit In the front row

of a theater and forget his own name. Harry Howell cares little for poker, but

The American and Yankee teams have not been defeated this season. Judging from the advance sale of tickets, one of the biggest crowds that ever wit- nessed a@ game will be on hand. The proceeds will be turned over to, thef Premier five to enable it towggmpete at Chicago next month. The manage- ment of the hall has donated the use of the court. McKinley Will Not Protest According to the reports of the ath- letic authorities of the McKinley High School the game in which the Central High School won the - interscholastic championship last Saturday night will not be protested. The South Siders will haye to be given credit for being one of the most sportsmaniike schools in the Interscholastic League for leaving anything like that go by. The Missouri Valley conference title is unquestionably owned by the Kansas University basket ball five. The Jay- bawkers received their only defeat at the hands of the Washington Universi- ty,, but the other schodls in the confer- ence have proven easy for the proteges of Coach Hamilton. KLING MUST PRODUCE OR REMAIN OUT OF GAME Special to the Post-Dispatch CINCINNATI, . eb. 26. —“Just another one of Murphy’s finished bluffs.” This is the way Garry Herrmann character- izes the ‘leave of absence letter’ John- ny Kling claims to have received from Murphy permitting him to remain away from the Chicago team. Herrmann does not believe such a let- ter as Kling mentions exists and wants to know whether it is in the shape of a letter or a telegram or a telephone message. Herrmann is also asking questions as to whether he can or will produce it for the inspection of tne National Commission. Should the letter prove a bit of Kling'’s imagination, Kling’s case will fall like a ton of brick, and it will be chances for reinstatement, these ‘close to the inner baseball circle here say.

TACIT. OLGAST’S victory over Nelson | W has aroused tho inevitable tur- moil which follows interference on the part of a referee to save a fight- er nseless punishmert. A number of queries have been received asking if Woigast knocked out Nelson, The Standard D:ctionary gives his definition of the term: Knockout—Rendering insensible, as | from a blow on the angle of the jaw; overpowering. From this definition :t is evident that a strict interpretation of the meaniug of this word does not always imply. temporary loss of mental faculties; railer, it means, tn u prize-fight con- nection, the reduction of an opponent’ ta a helpless condition, in which he is utterly unable to provect himself, az was Nelson in the fortieth round of the Wolgast match. It is..understood, of course, that when an official intervenes} t» save a fighter useless punishment, the defeated man is, in the eyes of the official, helpless ani overpowered; and, therefore, in the strict sense of the Gefinition, all knocke’ vut. That’s as near as one can come to literally answering the question in- posed. As a matter of fact,. when gen- tlemen risk their ‘neal tickets on the chances of fighters. they ought to be specific in the matter of wording their cpinions—it would save much quibbling ever words. Up. to the Referee. Another angle to the situation, even toking the literal meaning of,e knock- out to imply unconsciousness, is this: That the refree, by interfering, estab- lishes the fact that in his jindgment the’ beaten man would soon have been rendered unconscious anid that, to save him, it was necessary to stop the fight, With this in mind, the winning fight- er is certainly entitled to a technical knockout, even though none actually occurred. ‘ ‘ Trade Bill Abstein to Cleveland? Per- ish the thought. And then bury it deep. The refusal of Enright to play with the Cardinals will doubtless cause Rog- er Bresnahan many sleepless nights. It would, however, cause him a= still worse insomnia to find a. place in which to play the gentleman if he had him. And the same applies to Mr. Larkin. Pathetic, isn't it, to read of Battling Nelson now betting that he can last # rounds with Wolgast?. We'd like a bit of that wager, too, only the distance might be advanced J0 rounds and stiil the bet be good. vance dope on the finish of the baseball race in the National] League, just observe the dispatches to- day, from Cincinnati, which state that the Reds and the Pirates have reached an agreement to play season their dates of Oct. 12, 13 and li.

PSR r orn: ager sme ere Police Are Searching the Country for the Noted “Johnny” Collins.

PENITENTIARY YAWNS Cell Awaits Capture of Man Who Boasted He Wouldn’t Do His “Bit.” ; “Johnny” Collins, a noted pickpocket, ”” wnder two years’ sentence in. the peni- tentiary, apparently intends to make good his declaration that he will not do his “bit."" For two weeks the St. Louis police have been searching for Collins, and finding no trace of him, have noti- fied the police of all large’ cities to ar- rest him on sight. Collins charged after his conviction two years ago that he had paid poll- ticlans a large sum of money for pro- tection, but it was never proven. He pleaded guilty to having robbed Dock McMahon, a motorman, on a car at Seventh street and Franklin avenue and Was sentenced to two years in prison. He was paroled by Judge Charles Claf- flin Allen, who was unacquainted with his record, but three weeks later he was arrested on a charge of picking the pockets of persons attending a picnic at Normandy. For this Judge Allen revoked his pa- role and ordered him sent to the peni- tentiary. His attorney, John A. Gernez, appealed to the Supreme Court from the decision of Judge Allen, revoking the parole, and gave an appeal bond. The Supreme Court two weeks ago held that Judge Allen was right in re- voking the parole, and ordered Collins sent to the penitentiary. @ police then began a search for Collins to send him to the penitentiary. They have watched his former haunts, but have found no trace of him. “Cap” Troll, a former member of the House of Delegates, and Danny Naugh- ton, former Assistant Clerk of the House of Delegates, both interested themselves in Collins’ behalf when he Was arrested. Collins’ parole was recommended by Circuit Attorney Jones and former As- sistant Cireuit Attorney .Dyer on the theory that he would get into trouble again and that his parole would be re- voked. They had induced him to plead guilty on promise of a parole. They had not long to wait after the parole was granted until Collins was brought in again for picking pockets. After his arrest a second time Collins declared he had paid $1200 to keep out of the penitentiary, and that if his case — r : pressed he was going to tell where "the money went. He later retracted “this statement, saying he had spent money only for attorneys’ fees. SLAYER OF “BAD JACK” BARRY IS RELEASED ON $5000 BOND

‘Coroner’s Jury Decides That Henry L. Diederichsen Acted in Self-Defense. Henry L. Diederichsen, who shot and killed “Bad Jack” Barry in Justice - Reichmann’s courtroom Thursday after- noon, is at liberty under a $5000 bond to answer any charge that may be brought against him by the grand jury or prosecuting attorney. He was ex- onerated by the Corener’s jury at the inquest Friday, the jury deciding that he shot in self-defense. Diederichsen’s bond is signed by Jus- tice Reichmann and Farwell Walton. It is thought the grand jury will take up its investigation of the shooting Monday. The trouble between Barry and Dieé- derichsen arose over politics. Dieder- ichsen says Barry was approaching him in a threatening manner armed with an open knife when he fired the shots that resulted in Barry’s death at the . City Hospital three hours later. Barry was a supporter of Herman Bader for central committeeman from the Nineteenth Ward.. Diederichsen fa- vored Sam Stannard. It was during an argument as to the qualities of these “men that the shootin, occurred.

J, VION PAPIN IS ENGAGED TO MISS FANNIE LOCKETT Marriage of St. Louisan and Washington Girl Is Set for June 1. The engagement of J. Vion Papin, newspaperman and scion of one of St. Leuls’ oldest families, and Miss Fannie Lockett of Washington, D. C., has just been announced, the wedding date be- ing set for Jun? } tn tne nome of Mrs. J. Gifford Richa.ason, widow of the late St. Louls banker, a relative of M'‘ss Lockett, at 780 West End avenue, New York. Papin is well known to newspaper workers in St. Louls, having been at- tached to the staff of the Republic since the close of the World's Fair and prior thereio. During the exposition Papin was seccetary of the Japanese

tery A, he took part in the Porto Rican ae of the policeman summoned by his wife, Junot smashed all the cut glassware and furniture. Junot appeared before Judge Tracy Saturday to show cause why he should not be adjudged guilty of that multiform offense known as disturbing the peace. “The trouble started over George Fisher, Mr. and Mrs. Junot’s son-in- law,”’ said Miss Anna Garlic, a niece. “He boarded here since his wife, their daughter, died, and Mr. Junot thought Mrs. Junot paid more attention to George’s comfort than to his.’’

Unmistakable evidence of the increas- ing interest citizens of this country are taking in the Panama Canal was proved when the Hamburg-American Line Steamship ‘“‘Moltke,’’ returning on Sat- urday from a 28 days’ cruise through West Indian and Caribbean waters, re- ported that of her 30 passengers more than 300 made the trip across the isthmus and inspected the canal work. This is the greatest number who have ever taken the canal: trip at one time. The “Moltke,” which is the largest vessel (12,500 tons) ever sent to Carib- bean waters, will sail On the same route again. She will visit the West Indies, Venezuela, Nassau and the Panama Canal and be gone about a month.

“DKEP SEA WARRIORS.” | A book of nothing else but men Is rather pleasant now and then, The ladies are a great success, And all of that, but ne’ertheless The natural affinity Of man is man, it seems to me, And how it is with him and what He does amuses us @ lot. He is an interesting brute, And very likeable to-boot, Especially when he is thrown Among grim natures like his own, And great adventures come so thick They kill a mollycoddle quick. In this brave tale the sea is smelt, And forty men like Roosevelt Amuse themselves with raising cain All up and down the raging main, Now fighting Nature in her rage, And having nothing to engage Their lust for battle otherwise, Just blacking one another's eyes. A verv thrilling tale, indeed, And leaving very little need For criticism where it can Encounter some red-blooded man. He'll eat it up, or so to speak, And leave it hating all the weak And timid creature life that plays At navigating nowadays. (“Deep Sea Warriors,’”’ by Basil Lub- Lock. Dood, Mead & Co.) ETHAN ALLEN HITCHCOCK, ROM the diaries of Major-General - Ethan Allen Hitchcock there has been complled an interesting biozg- raphy of the writer, by W. A. Croffut. It covers the years from 1814 to 1867, and gives in many passages curious revela- tions of our Indian wars, the war against Mexico, and the Civil War. In all of these the General played a part, always important, and frequently dis- tinguished. He had personal acquaint- ance and dealings with many of the foremost men of our political and mili- tary history, and his records of their acts and their sayings, throws new light upon their characters. Gen. Hitchcock himself presents a cu- riously interesting study of mentality. Although the whole of his active lifs was spent in military service, his mind ran incessantly to questions of meta- physics, theology and such occult sci- ences as astrology and alchemy. This tendency of his disposition interfered at times with his career. In, fact, he had little military ambition. Thus, at the outbreak af the Civil War, when sum- moned from retirement to go to Wash- ington to confer with the President, he wrote in his, diary: “I have been a student all my life, even when I was a soldier by an education involuntarily received. I did not go to the military academy because I deliberately made choice of a military profession. I went because, being a grandson of Ethan Allen, some of the friends of our fam- ily thought it appropriate. If service ean repay stich education, I served #0 years. Is not that long enough?” Hitchcock graduated from West Point in 1814 and was assigned to service in the South, where the Indians were giv- ing much trouble. His diaries give ac- counts of the conditions of the country at that time. With no railroads and few roads of any kind, most of the towns throughout the South were hardly more than back-woods settlements. The West was worse still. The Mississippi was virtually the frontier of civilization. Traveling was so bad it took Hitchcock on one occasion two months to go from St. Louis to West Point. His records of army life are not pleas- ing. It must be remembered that to him it was wholly uncongenial. He notes jealousies and rivalries and ani- mosities among his fellow officers, even among those of the highest rank, but takes little or no interest in them. At times, however, the entries in the diaries Show shrewd forecasts of political events. Thus he writes: “I rarely note a word of politics, because I am not mixed up in them, exercise no influence upon them, and am but little affectéd by them. We have certain intelligence that J. K. Polk is elected President over Henry Clay. I look upon this as a step towards the annexation of Texas first, and then, in due time, the separation of the Union.’’ An interesting passage of self-revela- tion is found in the diary of April 9, 185. He writes: ‘Gen. Lee surrendered his army to Gen. Grant today. * * The only merit I have in connection with this rebellion is that of refusing to take so se commands, and I re-
