BILLS AGAINST. ELEVEN |Chicago. Grand Jury Includes St. Louis Concern in Fed- eral ‘Action. By Associated Press. CHICAGO, March 21.—Simultaneously with the return of Indictments today against the National Packing Co. and 10 of its subsidiary companies, charg- ing violation of the anti-trust laws, United States District Attorney Sims also filed a bill in equity for dissolu- tion of the alleged trust. The bill names not only the National Packing Co., but the Armour, Swift and Morris individuals who dominate and control these concerns. The National Packing Co. is regarded not only as the holding company, but it is atcused of being the body executive head. of the Meat Trust which -has bapsted prices. Its acfivity has been widespread and to it is attributed the present high price of meat. It is apparent from the ‘bill and the indictments that the Government re- gards the National Packing Co. as the instrumentality through which the pack- ers have been evading the anti-trust law and by 4neans of which they have been making their combination effective. It is admittedly the opinion of the Department of Justice and the grand jury, which, at Judge Landis’ direction, have been investigating the Theat in- dustry for the last two months, that if tthe National Packing Co. is. broken up the alleged evils of this combination will be remedied. At any rate, the present attack of the Government is focused on the National Packing Co. as the nucleus of the so- called meat combination. ; The: defendants to the bill are the National Packing Co., G. H. Hammond Co., Hammond Packing Co., Oma- ha Packing Co., Anglo-American Pro- ae Co., Fowler Packing Co., United Beef Co., St. Louis Dressed Beéf and Provision Co., Western Pack- ing Co., Colorado Packing. and Provi- sion Co., New York Butchers’ Dressed Meat Co., Continental Packing, Armour & Co., Swift & Co., Morris & Co., Ed- ward Tilden, Louis F.. Swift, Edward F. Swift, Charles H. Swift,. L.A. Car- ton, Frank A. Fowler, J. Ogden Armour, Arthur Meeker, Thomas J. Connors, Edward Morris, Thomas E, Wilson and L. H. Heyman. Three Interests Involved. The bill charges that prior to May 10, 1902, Armour & Co., Swift & Co., and Morris & Co., were parties to an unlaw- ful combination. to fix prices and re- strain trade in fresh meats: that on that day sult was brought by the United to prevent their violations of the law, and that as result of that suit Judge Grosscup, Feb. 18, 1902, filed an opin- lon stating that he would grant an in- junction in accordance’ with the prayer of the Government's bill. The final order in the case, however, Was not entered until April 4, 1908. In the. meantime, on March 18, 1903, the National Packing Co: was organized, all of the stock of which was. owned by the Armour, Swifth and Morris inter- ests, the parties to the original alleged combination.

ONLY NINE SAYLER MURDER JURORS CHOSEN IN WEEK Court Overrulés Defense’s Challenge of Talesman Dar- raugh and He Takes Seat. WATSEKA, Ill., March 21.—Mrs. Say- ler, refreshed by her Sunday rest, man- ifested a vivacious interest in the selec- tion of jurors to try her and Dr. John band, when the trial was resumed this morning. She held frequent whispered Conversations .with one or another of her attorneys. She and her daughter, Golda, showed disappointmént when the first four men were excused without another juror hav- ing been obtained. Dr: Miller's. attitude was listless. He lounged -with one leg thrown over the leg ‘of his chair. Part of the time his head rested against the back of his chair and he languidly scanned the ceiling. Occasionally he be- came more alert and made notes in a pocket memorandum book. Frank Gray was.excused partiy be- eause he was a “member of the jury in the McGee murder trial in Iroquois Coun- ty several years ago.- McGee was tried for killing hie wife and child and moth- er-in-law and burning tthe house in which they were killed. He was sent to the penitentiary. 7 At the conclusion of the examination of the second group of four on the part of the defense, Attorney Kern, for the defense, announced that John Baker would be passed temporarily and the other three challenged. Judge Dibell after questioning Joseph Darrough, said the challenge. of Darrough would be overruled.

RIGHT. LOUISANS: GREET STILWELL IN CAR CHAPEL Rolla Wells; W. K. Bixby and C. H. ‘Huttig Meet British- _ers in-Traveling Church.

Arthur E. Stilwell’s private car party of English and German capitalists ar- rived at Union Station at 1:40 p. m. Monday from New York. Rolla Wells, w. K. Bixby, Charles H. Huttig arg a delegation of wealthy St. Loutsans mef the visitors and escorted them to auto- mobiles as the begirning of an after- noon’s and evening’s entertainment. With the party arrived Rear Admiral Robley D. Evans (‘Fighting Bob’’), and C. C. Glover; a Washington banker. A fine pipe organ, installed in the rear endof Stilwell’s special car, makes that portion of it convertible into a chapel. The’ railroad promoter is devoted to Christian Science doctrines, and his re- ligion, which inspired him in his previ- ous feats of railroad building, he says is his mainstay in his present under- taking, the construction of the Kansas City, Mexico and Orient line. The British visitors, millionaires in pounds sterling, are to travel through Oklahoma, Texas and Mexico as Stil- well’s guests. The termini of the néw line are Kansas City and Topolobampo, Mex., on the Pacific Coast, and the length of the main line is 1669 miles. Will Stay Until 10 P, M. The -party will remain in St. Louis until 10 p. m. The schedule for their entertainment during the afternoon and evening included a river excursion on the harbor boat Erastus Wells, an au- tomobile ride through the business and residence districts to the Country Club, and dinner there at 7 p. m. In the party of local entertainers are Walker Hill, E. F. Goltra, Thomas H. West, E. L. Adreon, J. 8S. Ballard, George M. Wright, C. H. Howard, R. McK. Jones, Henry Nicolaus, L. D. Dozier, John D. Davis, James HB. Smith, Al Shapleigh, E. 8. Robert, J. H. Lion- berger and W. D. Orthwein. The best known in this country of the visitors are the Hon. Cornwallis West,. formerly Liberal leader in Parliament, and Rear Admiral Sir Percy Scott of the British navy. Others are Lord Enfield, Col. of Boer War fame and Baron Hans Bleichroder of Berlin. Several German financiers are in the party, most of whose members are English bankers Medicine gives the food and nourishment the body requires--strengthens each | organ to do itswork--that's how it cures colds and| n- ycetege up the Pody.

Bethell ies 5 f 7 —— — ——— FOR ie a Chief of Detectives Seeks Evidence That Women Pay for Protection. CENSOR !S ABOLISHED Acting Chief of Police Also Disbands Creecy’s Gam- bling Squad. Following the abolition of the gam-, bling squad and the’ police moral cen- sor, it was learned Monday that the object of Chief ~mith’s raid upon five resorts Saturday night was not only for the purpose of uncovering conditions which flourished under Chief Creecy’s adtoinistration, but aiso to learn, if possible, whether any bribes have been paid for protection by the keepers of the houses. None of the score of women arrest- ed was taken to police headquarters for examination, however. All were sent to the Dayton Street Police Sta- tion and were released on bond to ap- pear for trial in police court. Acting Chief Gillaspy on Sunday or- dered the disbanding of the gambling squad, composed of Detective Peter Wells and Special Officers White and Stevenson, and the transfer of Detec- tive Frank La Barge, the departtment’s moral censor, from the staff of the Chief of Police to — of the Chief of Detectives. When the friction seliniag Chief of Police Creecy and Chief of Detectives Smith became so pronounced two yéars ago that the police heads could no onger even. pretend to be working in harmony Chief Creecy ordered the gambling squad tO work directly from his office. This cut them off from the jurisdiction of Chief Smith and the de- tective bureau from then on paid no attention to gambling o:r questionable resorts. Saturday night Cl -¢ Smith and sev- eral detectives raided five hdéuses on Leonard avenue, between Lucas and Washington avenues, and as a result Chief Gilaspy called La Barge, the moral. censor, ‘‘on the carpet.’’ Will Hold Captains Responsible. *La, Barge, in explaining how the re- sorts could have existed, said he was too well known to the women to be able to catch them violating the regu- lations of the department by using tele- phones in their houses and dispensing beer. ‘Well, then, what good is a morality squad?” asked the Chief. La Barge was ordered to report to Chief Smith and*the captains of the various districts were told in plain language that hereafter ‘hey will be held responsible for the actions of wom- en in their balliwicks. Sunday afternoon the gambling squad handed Chief Gillaspy a written report about the arrest of an old tramp who had once served time in prison, on sus- picion. The prisoner. was deaf and nearly blind and he pleaded pitifully that he had been living honestly ever since he got out of the ‘penitentiary. Gambling Squad Shifted. ‘Is'this all the work you fellows have Gone in the last 24 hours?’ asked Gil- laspy addressing Detective Wells, the head of the squad. “Is this man a gam- bler?’”” The later remark was in sar- casm. “Well, we ran into him while we were looking for gambling places,” said Wells. “Well, I don’t see the necessity of a gainbling squad,” said Gillaspy. “You officers report to Chief Smith hereafter and the captains of the districts can look after the gambling.”’ Detective Sergeant McMullen recently sent to the Magnolia Avenue District to act as } the gambling squad under Creecy.

tenant was formerly head of Lawyer ‘Resents Suggestion of Compromise and Says, “Do Your Worst.” : TO .STAND BY RULES Announcement Made That Free Delivery Zone Will Not Be Extended: + tPe. qos The railroad express companies doing business-in St. Louls served notice on the Missouri Railroad and Warehouse Commission at.the Southern Hotel Mon- day that ‘they will not extend their free delivery zones in North and South St. Louis. The commission intimated Tthat it would issue an order directing the companies to make free delivery to 4700 South Broadway and 5400 North Broadway. During the conference there was @ lively tilt between Attorney James L. Minnis, representing the express com- panies, and Commissioner John A. Knott. After Minnis had stated that the express companies would not consid- er any proposition looking toward the extension of the. free delivery zone, Commissioner Knott said' that the com- mission had called the conference in a spirit of compromise, hoping the express companies would agree to extend the zone without litigation. Minnis took offense at this suggestion and roundly denounced Knott and the commission. He declared the commis- sion was virtually a court, and not a party to the controversy. Resents Suggestion of Compromise. “f resent the suggestion that we com- promise this matter,’’ shouted Minnis, banging the table with his fist. “If that is the position the commission takes, then I challenge it to do its worst. “‘A judge on the bench who would sug- gest that a litigant compromise with his antagonist ought to be impeached and sent to jail.” Commissioner Knott (retorted that the commission was not a court, but an administrative body, and that in seek- ing to bring the express companies and business interests in North and Soutb St. Louis together in a satisfactory com- promise, # was merely doing its duty. '“T resent the insinuation that we are not treating this matter fairly,”” said Knott. “After going over the territory in North St. Louls and South St. Louis, and seeing for ourselves the conditions, I believe the people in those sections are being unfairly treated by the express companies. “The commission has no direct statu- tory power to compel the extension of the free delivery zone, but under other sectiong. of the law we have the power to compl the companies to treat all per- sons fairly and without discrimination. I thought it was best, if it could be done, for the express companies to come to some satisfactory understanding with the people in thickly populated territory where there is now no free delivery.” In his remarks to the Commission Minnis said that the investigation was the result of newspaper clamor. L. F. Padberg, representing the business in- terests of South St. Louis, and A. B. Galuber of Nurth St. Louis, defended the newspapers. “But for the newspapers,”’ said Pad- berg, ““we would. be siting here unable to do anything. We have shown this commission that in certain parts of South St. Louis where there is no. free delivery we have three times as many business houses as in territory where there is free delivery. We believe we have a right to free delivery, but we are willing to give and take, and we think the express companies ought to do the same. Can Show Businessz Houses. “If the express compa will send their representatives with me through South St. Louls I will show them the business houses. They can come down and count them.” ; Assistant Attorney General John M. Atkison stated that he had advised the commission to call for the conference: He declared the ¢ommission was trying to fairly and honestly do its duty along the line of its administrative powers. He said the previous investigation showed 50,000 or 0,000 people in South St. Louis who had no free delivery, and he thought they are entitled to it. The same conditions exist in North St. Louis. “While there is no direct statutory power conferred on this commission to compel the express companies to exten4 the free delivery zone,”’ said Atkinson, “yet the law provides that the express companies must serve the people with- out discrimination, If the express com- panies are serving people in the West End and refusing to serve people under similar conditions tn North and South St. Louls then they are violating the law by discriminating.” Aimed at National Co. Attorney Minnis declared the express companies could not extend the free service without a logs. on the business originating and delivered in the addi- tional territory. Atkingon challenged the right of the companies to arbitra- yond which they will not make free de- livery. He declared that the courts will, if the question is presented to them, consider the entire express business of the com- a to extend the free delivery. was not fair, he said, to take the un- | known business of any given district | and estimate whether the business wae ee i

Wrestling, foot racing, prize. fighting, horse racing and wire tapping were the specialties offered victims on which to make “‘easy money.’’ The victim usual- ly was approached first, by an actual friend, who had been previously solicit- ed by a regular “steerer,”’ as he was known, . In most instances representations were made that the “steerer had a cousin who was secretary to a coterie of men of great wealth, who were trav- eling over the country for pleasure. The victim was told that this ‘‘secre- tary’’ was angry at some alleged ill treatment and had undertaken to swin- die his employers out of a large sum of money.

Another meeting “with ¢ Rules Occasion Split, The deadlock is occasioned by the refusal of both sides to yteld on the question of two rules -demanded- by the firemen concerning promotion by seniority and the right of engi rs, who are members of the Citeenbele brotherhood, to be committee from their own organiza-. tion, This involves a jurisdictional dispute with the Brotherhood of Lo- comotive Engineers, officers of which Claim the exclusive right to repre- sent engineers. on the question of wages and working conditions. represented by The firemen also demand a 12% per cent increase in wages. The railroads offered to arbitrate the question of wages but refused to submit the rules to arbitration on the ground that they involve a jurisdictional fight and that. to grant or submit them to arbitra- tion would be in violation of con- tracts with the Brotherhood of Lo- comotive Engineers. The railroad officials told the Fed- eral mediators they would invite 4 strike of the engineers if they yielded to the demand for the rules. Contracts Prevent Arbitration. “Are you willing to make any conces- sions whatever?” Commissioner Neill asked President Carter. “There are none we can,” he replied. “It is up to the genera] managers.”

JEFFERSON DAY BANQUET TO BOOM GAYNOR IS CALLED OFF })Democrats Decline to Attend Meeting, Fearing to Affront Folk and ‘Francis. SPRINGFIELD, Mo.., baveh 21.— Following the receipt of “regrets” from prominent Democrats from all over the @ountry, the Jefferson day banquet here which was to have been held on April 18, officially has been called off. This announcement was made by the committee after it had wone over the situation with great care. One of the prime causes for forego- ing the feast, it is believed, is the construction which was placed on the invitation to Mayor Gaynor of New York to be present. It was intimated that a boom for President for the New York executive “ was to be launched at that time, in spite of the fact that D. R. Francis and Joseph W. Folk, Missouri Democrats who have been mentioned in that connec- tion, would be present. When this hint was spread broad- cast the refusals to attend came in a deluge and some of those who had been making the advance arrange- ments feared that “a corporal’s guard. could not be mustered.

McNair Tigenfritzs has gone to Hot Springs, Ark., for the double purpose of recovering his health and escaping his creditors. At the springs Igentritz hopes to regain his equanimity and poise and will return to St. Louis in time to fulfill his engagement here at the Co- lumbia Theater, beginning April 4. If his hopes are fulfilled, as regards his health, Ilgenfritz will undergo & bankruptcy operation in the United States District Court for the amputa- tion of his millinery and other credi- tors. This information, was contained fn 4 note from ligentritz to his manager, R. P. Strine, which Sfrine found in_his mail Monday: Stritie says the note is the only intelligence he has had from Ilgenfritz concerning the pianist’s af- fairs or intentions. ligenfritz’ preparations to leave the city were made after he had been sued late Friday by the Hughes Millinery Co. for a bill for $82 for a hat which he had purchased last December. Hughes says Ilgenfritz told him he wanted the hat “for a lark” at a West End affair where he was going to furnish a sur- prise by appearing as a woman. On Verge cf Breakdown. “My financial worries and difficulties,” reads the brief note to Strine, “have become so harrowing that a friend is taking me tonight to Hot Springs, Ark. I am on the verge of a nervous break- down. “T owe something like $2000 in St. Louis. When I return I intend to file a bankruptcy petition. I will not fail to return in time to keep my engage- ment with the Columbia.” Strine says until he received the note he had no idea that Iigenfritz intended leaving the city. “Tl know comparatively little @bout him,” said Strine, ‘‘further than that I acted for him in getting the engage- ment at the Columbia. But I suppose he finds it difficult to fight off cred- itors with one hand and play the piano with the other. “As far as his nerves are concerned, I imagine they are in pretty good shape. Anybody who can. run up $2000 on nothing in St. Louis is not suffering from disorganization of his nervous system.”

Practically a General Walk-| | ‘ Out Is Called; Missouri Interests Affected. By Associated Press. KANSAS CITY, March 2%.—Union |: leather workers in all parts of the coun- try, with the exception of the Bast, went on strike today because their employers refused to grant demands for an eight- hour day and a 15 per cent increase in wages. The strike was ordered by J. M. Baker, president of the United Brother- hood of Leather Workers. In Kansas City all the union leather workers, numbering 250, went out. At St. Joseph, Springfield and Joplin also all the local union men responded to the strike order. Frank Askew, a leading Igather manu- facturer of Kansas City, said today: “Everything will be quiet until the Na- tional Saddlery Manufacturers’ Assoéia- tion is heard from. The national ,asso- Ciation will deal with the strikers.”

HEALY NOT TO TELL For This Reason ,it Is- Not Likely That the Thieves Will be Punished. The Circuit Court may be asked to appoint a receiver for the St. Louis Police Relief Association, as a con- sequence of the distress into which six recently widowed wives of pa- trolmen have been thrown by the Po- lice Board's refusal to allow death benefits until after the investigation into the looting of the fund is com- pleted. A former policeman visited the office of an attorney Monday, in behalf of one of the widows, to see whether steps could not be taken to compel ‘the asso- ciation to pay its debt to her, which is $2000.. The lawyer who does not wish his name divulged for the present, an- swered that he believed the Circuit Court could order the association to pay the benefit. As a last resort, he said, a suit could be brought to place the associatigdn in a receivership. : Will Aet for Widows, The attorney sent out an agent Mon- day afternoon to see the widow in. whose half his visitor came. An attempt will also be made to persuade the other five windows to become co-plaintiffs in the suit. Some of the deaths date shortly be- fore the suspension of John M. Healy, indicted ex-secretary of the association, and the others occurred afterwards. The families of the dead policemen are said, in nearly evéry case, to be in need. When Healey’s shortage was ex- posed, the Police Board ordered that the association should suspend busi- ness, that no dues or assessments should be collected and that no bene- fits should be paid. The officers. of the association were forbidden to hold meetings. Two witnesses were summoned to ap- pear before the grand jury at 2 p. m. Friday, at the renewal of its investiga- tion into the Police Relief Association shortage. Assistant Circuit Rosskopf declined to makes their names public. Capt. Mansfield of the Newstead ave- nue District has prepared a report, to be forwarded Monday to Acting Chief of Police Gillaspy, containing the names of 10 policemen who belonged to the “grub squad”’ at the Buckingham Club. Wne of the epicurean bluecoats is said to be a sergeant. The names will not be made public until the report reaches Gillaspy. Col. John A. Laird president of the Police, Board held a long conference during the morning with Chief of De- tectives Smith while Commissioner Otto L. Teichmann was closeted with Gillaspy. Laird and Teichmann said ‘that only routine police matters were under discussion. The arrival of Lieut. Thomas J. Mc- Cormack, president of the Relief \As- sociation, who was suspended with Chief Creecy, at the Four Courts Monday morning, ‘caused considerable specula- tion until it was learned lie was a. wit- ness in ‘a lid club case in the Court of Criminal Correction. After giving his testimony, he left the building at once. No evidence on which criminal pro- ceedings could be brought against any member of the executive committee of the Police Relief Association will be ad- duced in the 1000-page report of Asso- efate City Counselor Willlam E. Baird to the Police Board. The report, it is stated, will show de- linquency on the part of certain com- mitteemen in failing tp discover and check the looting of the fund. This evi- dence will be sufficient to cause several members of the committee to be ar- raigned on charges before the Police Board, and may possibly result in their dismissal from the department. To make a criminal action against them stick, in the opinion of lawyers intimate with the case, a confession by John M. Healy implicating his suspect- ed accomplices, would be positively nec- essary. Accordinig to Healy’s attorneys, no confession will be forthcoming from him. Creecy’s Trial Delayed. The absence of Col.. Laird from the city on a business trip to Mil- waukee, will cause another delay in the trial of Chief of Police Edmond P. Creecy, who is suspended under charges., Col. Laird leaves Monday right and will return Thursday morn- ing. He says that a special meet- ing of the board may be called Thurs- day afternoon to receive Baird's re- port, which is practically ready, but that the matter may be permitted to go over until the regular session of the commissioners Friday afterneon, Daniel Healy, cousin of John M. Healy and treasurer of the Gray-Adams Engraving Co., 1824 Washington avenue, told a Post-Dispatch reporter Monday that the former secretary of the Relief Association has made no confession and will make none, so far as he knows. “I do not know that my cousin has

President and Canadian Min- ster Hold Conference Without Results. - Special to the Post-Dispatch. "ALBANY, N. Y¥., March 21.—The ne- gotiations here over tne tariff, between. President Taft and Minister of Finance Fielding of Canada ended where they began. The only statement which the President would/authorize was: “The President and Mr. Fielding were in conference in respect to the tariff for several hours. No conclusion was reached, but the situation remains that of friendly negotiations.’’ The situation in a nutshell is this: Canada will not recede from her posi- tion. The United States will not back down, either, because of political rea- sons and the mandatory nature of the Payne tariff law: While it will be in- expedient politically for either the Gov- ernment of Canada or the Taft admin- istration to bring on a tariff war it will be emberrassing to either to back down. By March $1 Mr. Taft must decide the question. On that date the maxi- mum tariff rates go into effect auto- matically. Secretary Knox thinks the law will permit the President to with- draw the maximum rates after March $1 if the conditions are changed. A recommendation to Congress for a law which will permit the President to negotiate a reciprocity ‘treaty with Canada may come later, but it cannot be done now. The tariff bugaboo for- bids it. Any attempt to change the Payne law will open up the entire bill, cause interminable discussion, and on the eve of the campaign for the control of Congress, would contradict the words of’ President Taft that the Payne law is the best tariff bill ever passed, The President took pains in his speech Saturday night to emphasize the fact that Minister Fielding was to talk over the tariff with him, not Earl Grey, tne Dominion Governor-General. Earl Grey is the titular head but has no political powers. Ker’ “a a %, ts A — ey te pagtthe . 5 ae ie ; as » + -y . Sr OS KS F ee ss dee sy seb OE sg 4 = ¥ ¥ ve » ” _ a ee iy a tor

weakness, without taking -the trousie first to espy and correct their dramatic blemishes in the play-making work- shop, before offering as a really fin- ished. product, the play of which they are the basis. This is how “The Call of the Cricket" impresses one. It wobbles placidly along, devoid of all constructive effort, with its one little sentimental idea of a breezy Kentucky girl, pathetically naive, suddenly set in’ an uncongenial en- vironment of Eastern society life, ap- parently, left to make the best—or worst —of itself, as may s0 befall on the knees of the gods. ! It makes the worst of itself. With no steering whatever, precisely as a child might deal with a passing day-dream, “The Call of the Cricket” goes its vague and rudderiess way until, finally—Pouf! it’s all vanished in thin air, void and formless—and its childife author, pre- sumably, turns blithely to another day- dream. This may be sport for the childifke author, but it’s hard lines for the play- going public and for whatever luckless star and company may be essaying the play. ..t first one thinks that .we dramatic eonflict of “The Call of the Cricket’ is going to be between “Buck” Wa- wards, a homicidal young Kentuckian, and Norman Marsh, a very upty-up Young New York millionaire, for the hand of “The) Cricket,” who-appeals to each of: them from different tempera- mental angles.

As long ago as the Centennial Exhibition in 1876, the Commissioner from Switzerland visited the Waltham Watch ‘factory and picked out a watch at random from a lot of others. When he returned to Switzerland he téld the Swiss Watch Manufacturers that not one Swiss watch in 50,000 would compare with that Waltham watch he had picked up haphazard at the Waltham Factory. A state- ment even more true now than then. We advise you to buy a Waltham Watch adjusted to temperature and position and to buy only from a jeweler because he can regulate it to your personal habit and occupation.

married the cricket and you see that he’s much bored by her—and then you feel that there’s going to be a “‘triangle”’ entanglement, with Rena Colebrook, © haughty Eastern society girl to whom Norman was first betrothed, as “the other woman.” Nothing comes of this, however—but again suddenly, the homicidal young Kentuckian emerges upon the scene, and you are willing to bet that he will develop inte “‘the other ‘man,”” mainly for the purpose of holding Norman Marsh to a six-shooter reckoning for failing to appreciate the cricket. Again, worse luck, the “big situation” bell refuses to ring—the Blue Grass “killer” announcing, lamblike, that he has merely dropped in from Kentucky to take lunch with the young married couple in New Yerk and wish them all sorts of happiness. Whereupon, a little later, the cricket bids her love-cold husband a long and last farewell—and you feel that the teaching of the play will be that it’s wrong te marry a cricket unless one really loves crickets. But, even, then, just as Norman Marsh seats himself dejectedly at a table and rests his head upen his arms, the cricket returns—and the last curtain falls as he takes her in his embrace, presumably having ceased to be bored, although giv- ing not the slightest: proof of really lov- ing her. And there you are. One doés not remember ever having seen @ more meaningless or inconse- quential play. Mabel Taliaferro and her supporting company travel through it with a quite astonishing show of inter- est in theif work. But the audience is tired to the bone. Indeed, the burden of boredom placed on playgoers would have been a tragedy in itself but for the American sense of humor. Many persons in last night’s house luckily possessed this saving grace. [ heard them laughing as Edwin Peple’s latest play was striving pitiably to find some sort of a finish for itself. RIPLEY D. SAUNDERS. “THE FAIR CO-ED” AT OLYMPIC. HERE is a noisy, jolly, sprightly assemblage of young men and women at the Olympic Theater this week that can stir the blood of the most prosy and sedate of humankind. Elsie Janis, “The Fair Co-Ed,”’ is the leader and principal breeze ef the stir- ring set, but there are some five or six dozen assistants who make the time pass fleetingly while she pauses for breath or a change of costume. | “The Fair Co-Ed” is a riot of humor, college pranks, George Ade slang, Gus- tav Luders music and William Rock dances. It opens with a breeze of mer- riment and closes with a whirlwind of song, dance and laughter. It makes your blood tingle, your pulse beat fast- er; it makes you think of the dear old school days until you almost feel like joining in the college songs and class yells, George Ade has “shet ‘The Fair Co- Ed’ to pieces’’ with the choicest of his clever lines and satirical flings without injecting any offensiveness or sugges- tiveness. The ideas and situations are not entirely new, but seasoned with the George Ade spice they have the brand of newness. The college professors, with beetling brows; the young ladies from north, south, east and west; the athletic youths, strong of lung and muscle; the young man who only wants a degree, and the intolerable. chap who thinks himself the “observed of all observers,”’ form the interesting group who enter- tain the fair co-ed—and the audience. And what an entertaining, lively group! From sdéng to dance, from the latest ballad to the oldest songs; from class tussle to lovemaking—it’s some- thing doing all the time. Just te fil the evening’s entertainment to overflow- ing, Elsie Janis made two little curtain talks last night. As a diversion from the college spirit of the play, Elsie Janis gave a number of imitations in the closing act, which not only entertained but showed’. the diversified talents of this young star. Her best impersonation is that of Bes- sie McCoy in the hypnotic dance, be- cause it is more in keeping with the Janis art. Imitations are usually rank, and Elsie Janis’ imitations of other stars may be no better than their imitations of her would be. The “imitation act” is the only thing in the play that smacks of vaudeville: It is entertaining, but Elsie Janis doesn’t have to resort to vaudeville or burlesque to please. She pleases most as -herself. Among the other entertainers are ae gar Halstead, the professor; Arthur | Stanford, almost g senior; Harry Depp,

The power of the Republican standpatters to enforce their will reflects on the Republican party, but is the logical outcéme of the insurgent victory. That Speaker Cannon survived the wreck of his despotism is of small moment. His personal salvation was merely a matter of party expedi- ency with some, and of merciful consideration with others of the opponents of his system. He holds his place at considerable loss of dignity and respect. His office makes him thé more con- spicuous as an example of well-deserved rebuke, = = i id When a man gets himself lynched in Arkansas they call it suicide; but it is the suicide of law and not of the victim.

3 TAX REFORM. Now that the disturbance has subsided it may be well to note what has been accomplished by Assessor Brinkop’s assault on the personal tax- dodgers.. It is vain +o discuss Mr. Brinkop’s methods. He is the Assessor and has a right to resort to every legal device to force an honest listing of property.. The statement was made that 10,000 taxpayers had failed to make per- sonal returns. How is it possible to punish -10,- 000 members of. the community for an artificial offense created by the law? If they are forced to make returns how can their statements be veri- fied. Experience everywhere and at all times proves that men dodge their taxes when they can and when compelled to make returns favor their own pocketbooks. Mr. Brinkop has gained -additional taxes, but there is no-.assurance that the gain will be per- manent. oe ae The chief result of the Brinkop effort is ad- ditional proof of the faultiness of our tax sys- tem. Any system which depends upon returns by the taxpayer must inevitably fail. It results in wholesale evasion of tdxes, in gross inequali-| ‘ties and legal futilities. The honest are pen- alized and the State gains a minimum of re- sults with a maximum of effort. The tax system in this State is intolerable. It works gross injustice between localities and in- dividuals.. The reform of the system is one of the first duties of the people.” Ohio papers are circulating a story of a man in that state, who has just celebrated his 100th birthday, and they say “he has eaten an apple every evening just before going to bed.” It is now up to them to explain how many bushels of apples he has eaten and how much he would have saved if he hadn‘t eaten any.

BATH HOUSE NO. 1, In the annual report of the Park Commissioner are found figures and facts strangely at variance with the views and opinions of the tenement house owners. To the Municipal Assembly they argued bravely that modern plumbing and bath tubs in tenement houses are extravagant and use- less accessories. The tenants will not use them for bathing purposes. Miss Charlotte Rumbold, secretary of the Pub- lic Recreation Commission, reports that Public Bath No. 1, on Tenth street, in the heart of the Ghetto, was used by 1568 persons on one day in July, by 74,358 persons in Junc, July and August and by nearly 150,000 persons in the year. That seems to be a considerable number of baths to be taken in a district whose pcople would use bath tubs to store potatoes in—if they had both tubs and potatoes. The average number of baths per day of 12 hours at Bath House No. 1 was 449. One bath every 75 seconds in the Ghetto is a pretty fair average considering the claim that the people are not addicted to bathing. But the average number of dally baths in- creased from 328 to 449 in a year. And yet the ten- ement house owners solemnly averred that these people won’t bathe and persistently decline to be taught the beauties and convenienves of cleanli- ness. Other statistics at Bath No. 1 tell of the sale of 47,589 cakes of soap and 52,179 rented towels. This is scandalous extravagance on the part of people who love dirt and. prefcr to abide in it. This astonishing Miss Rumbol? concludes her astonishing report by recommending more pub- lic baths. If the tenement house owners are con- sistent they will protest against being taxed for such purposes and recite their old arguments to prove. What the facts totally disprove. When the Municipal Assembly next considers a measure to make tenements clean, sanitary and habitable it should call in the iconoclastic Miss Rumbold to give the figures to offset the feverish fancies of the property owners whose creed includes not only a firm belief in original sin but in Jneradic- able dirt as the cause of it. : The fact that 100 financiers of New York have organized 4 syndicate to get.their automobiles at cost, can hardly be taken as an evidence of hard times. The action is doubtless nothing more

than a result of the force of habit. | a There is an astounding difference. of opinion

Farmers Not to Blame. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. : I noticed an article on high prices of living in which Dr. Wiley attributes the chief cause to the “boys” leaving the farm. Further on in hig arti-. cle he states that ‘twill not be long till everyone sees the farmer getting rich and there will be lower prices then, due to the competition of farmers. Is this not an absurd thought? Dr. Wiley seems to try to ¢én- form us that the farmer is setting his prices and that @8 s00n as: we have more farmers they will begin cutting prices .on each other. The prices paid the farmers are so insignificant that they do not figure at all in the high cost of living. For instance, the meat problem. The farmer gets about one-fourth the amount the consumér pays. Who gets the other three-fourths? : Bome people always are ready to pounce upon the farmer, and are continually afraid that he’s getting rich too fast; they do not take into consideration, it seems, that when he sells his produce he takes what is offered him. He’ doesn’t establish a price. On the other hand, when he buys his sugar, coffee or other groceries and sundries, does he estabilsh the price? Never! I am a farmer boy and I left the farm, but in my heart I keep a very warm spot for the boys who did not leave. Now, those of you who have read Dr. Wiley’s arti- cle will, I believe, agree with me that he fears the farmer is at present making too much money, keep- ing the high prices of living up, and the sooner the city people send the country boys back to the farms the sooner the /grocer’s bills will decrease. Du you agree with him? If so, I should like to know on what grounds? A FARMER'S SON. Ask Dr. Cook. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. An argument has arisen as to whether or not grass grows at the foot of Mount McKinley. I maintain the ground is barren at present, but feel pretty cer- tain that after the Berry balloon expedition has spent some time there, tall grass will be plentifui. Would be pleased to get the opinion of some of your readers on this question. B. 8. : A Wife Seeks Advite. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. My object in writing this is for advice, my married life being very unhappy. My husband is a fine-look- ing-man and he knows %: im fact, he overestimates his good looks and his good qualities, he having but two; he does not drink to a great extent and is a faithful worker. Because he is above the majority in these respects he expects me to overlook all, oth- er deficiencies. My greatest trouble with my husband . the same old song, another woman—a wifé’s great- est sorrow. I do all my own work—washing ironing, scrubbing, baking, sewing, making fires and carrying in all the coal; in fact, everything that constitutes housework. I have no fads nor do I belong to any clubs. I have no amusements or diversions of any kind. I have been the mother of three children, two having died in infancy, one child remaining, whom we both idolize. Now, what I want to know fs my duty. Must 1 continue living with my husband, knowing that he hates me, that his whole heart and soul belongs to another while all I get is a snarl and a curse? Must I put away all thought of self, live in constant fear; torment and grief, for my child's sake? Is the mo- tive worthy of the sacrifice? Now, if I should leave him would I be more contented and happier? Some say I would, while others say I would not. Do men ever repent of wrongs done their wives; and which have they greatest respect for, a good woman or a bad one? I do not believe in divorces, and second marriages I call sinful. I would like to see this printed, and advice and opinions would be greatly appreciated, especially from one in a similar position. ! A WIFE IN NAME ONLY. Home Best Place for Children. To the Héitor of the Post-Dispatch, In answer to Mabel Harris I would say that any- one “with the children’s welfare at heart” would ask rather that the State and charitable organizations give money to the poor parents to take care of their children at home, which is the proper place for them, instead of giving it to institutions, which at best can- not supply the place of parents. The country is learning that the best place for chil- dren and Giseased and helpless people is at home. There they Set good treatment, all the money that is tiven to help them and have an opportunity to im- prove which is- better for society in general. If children could be taken from their parents, no family would be safe and we would have race suicide in a hurry, as anyone ts liable to the accident of poverty. Let the State give its money to parents instead of institutions and see the improvement. . ETHEL CALVER. The Marion Lynching. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The published accounts of the lynching at Marion, Ark., are so horrible as to cause the blush of shame to maritie the cheeks of every American who is proud of our claims to humanitarianism end Christian civ- lization. I have no tolerance for the crimina) negro, He should be punished as every other criminal when apprehended, and gonvicted, but this particular in- stance of savagery on the part of @ so-called “order- ly and-quiet mob of leading citizens” is so manifest- libel of the fair-minded man in every communi- that it compels indignant protest. human life should be so cheap that it can for minor of the State to teach those red-handed murderers be aroused against this aw, or the sowing of the wind s the inevitable Rarvest of | d anarchy.

‘A CHANCE FOR A MILIAONAIRE. From the London Spectator. If we were asked to name one of the most obvious opportunities Americans have for practicing the art of public giving, we should say it is to provide an American embassy in London worthy of the United States. At present the Ambassador, though he has a perma- nent office, has to hire a house to serve him as his piece of American soil with- in the United Kingdom. What a gift it would be if some American millionaire could give one of the great houses df London to his country as a London em- bassy! One understands and likes waned traditional simplicity which has distin- guished the practical conduct of Ameri- can diplomacy, yet American ambassa- dors do live nowadays in places like Dorchester House, and it would be bet- ter that their government should own them than that individual ambassadors should hire them.

TAXICAB ‘TRICK. From the New York Sun, ‘I’m just pinning on my braid,” said the young woman who had been called to the telephone. “Oh, about ® min- utes, I guess." ‘That is atrick,” she said, “that came in with taxicabs. A man going anywhere with a woman in an old- fashioned cab would have squandered half a-week’s salary before he would telephone to . her about the stage of her toilet. But with taxicabs it is dit- ferent. They eat up money faster than the old cabs and it is nothing unusual now for an escort to ask how much longer it will take to get ready. Within 15 or 20 minutes of the time set he calls @ taxi and gets here just as yo: are going dewnstairs.. Not very romantic, no; but it’s sensible and saves money.”

IT 18 TO LAUGH. From the Philadelphia Inqutrer. There is no deubt that the party in New York is in a rather serious pre- dicament. The disclosures at Albany un- questionably have not been conducive to confidence. That a reorganization along the lines of Gov. Hughes’ policies would be beneficial seems to be‘plain. But—Elihu Root posing as an Apostle of Political Purity, or pretending to be anything else than what he has been for most of his life, the tricky lawyer of tricky corporations, is calculated to make even a graven image laugh, Re- form must look elsewhere than to such a man for leadership.

A WOMAN FOR CHIEF. . Having tried out any number of men as Chief of Police and found all of them in some way deficient, the obvious hy ternative for the Police Commissioners to give the place to a woman. | , The fitness of women for police duty is being recognized in many cities. They walk beats in Cincinnati and other pro- gressive communities, gand it is prob- ably inevitable that they will become heads of departments as well. Intuition, which ts abnormal in woman, isa great asset in police work. It facilitates mat- ters to know that this or that person has been up to something, and & Wom- an does know, as we can all testify. Moreover, we are told that Chief Creecy is to be’ deposed because he pigeon-holed reports. In other words, he kept secrets. Now a woman chief— Well, you can .see yourself—there would be nothing of that kind any more. We would know-all, anyway. sc ae Hard on Mississippi.

June 26, 1950. —Saw the midair Spectacle of the year tonight. The K. ©. Theater Special burned _ im the interurban level over the city, and a hundred searchlights _ made her a moving picture thrown against the sky. I got past the police lines and—but that comes later. The heat of a sultry night had driven me in my monocopter | flyer up to the cool heights early in the evening. After a refresh- _ {ng run north over the river—dipping down at times close to the water and again soaring starward—I was winging homeward _ “when suddenly the silent levels became bedlam with the nerve tingling calls of the firé whistles. At the tim time—it was a little after eleven—I was in the 1000- __ foot level, and had just passed the white pillars of light, rising a the towers that mark the city limits of the sky, and had owed down to 100 miles an -hour. As the whistles sounded, I saw ahead and above me a column of flame shoot up and the black canopy of the sky become pink, and then red. Because of the - time and because the burning aircraft was in the 6000-foot inter- urban right of way, directly above the ribbon of light that marks : e - the Great White Way of.Grand avenue from river to river, I knew ' that it was the Theatre Special taking the playgoers from Kansas City back to their homes. A pull on the lifting lever, a jerk at the - throttle and my monocopter under full speed swung upward, straight as a bullet toward the doomed Special. + As I climbed the searchlights of the city roof gardens, of the watch and signal towers, and of pleasure aircraft, one by one be- _ gan picking up the Special in the sky. In their focus she _ptood out as if it were noon. Her forward decks were burn- ies ing, and the flames—in spite of a score of streams from the fire | bi * multis—vwere licking up at the steel hull protecting the gas reser- -Voirs. - Her passengers, in automatic parachute life preservers; ‘were dropping. off like flies, afid tumbling into the stretch of nets, spread below by the swarm of net-planes of the Government Life Saving Corps, and scrambling to safety aboard them. The police patrol monos, that had darted up from the roofs of a hundred station houses in the city, had formed a circular po- eS lice line. To get past, I soared up and over the burning inter- _ urban, and there saw the powerful monos of the Salvage Corps : lowering their grappling hooks into her. A second later the sig- nal All passengers off” was flashed from below, and the Salvage - monos began dragging her towards the river to prevent injury “to the buildings far below. ddenly the thought came to me that the captain might not . 8. deserted his ship. I swooped down, and my heart leaped P Qe ast ! saw him by the little pilot house door on the top of the cigar- eee. gl i hull. It was the work of a miriute to bring my mono near, -her with the erasers: screws; and throw him the rope Ms I swane away from the dangerously hot steel hull, with the _ Captain beside me, I realized that a searchlight was playing on us, and looking up, made out not a hundred feet away, the ‘‘Alba- ag oe ’ the great white skyacht of the Hardaways, with Edith way near the rail of the forward deck, clapping her hands. _ “Good work, .Archie,’’ she called out. That is why, when the Captain, down in the city later, wanted i. set them up, I said:

The drainage is splendid, gravel abundant—clear, pure water plentiful and the climate here in the Ozarks is just right for hens to thrive and lay regularly.

SEEN BY ONE -MAN Works Unmolested by the Police While His. Victims Are Away From Home. The “Water Tower burglar” spent -another busy afternoon and evening in his particular territory Sunday... He seems to have a nontransferable con- cession on the burglary privilege in that neighborhood. He has no compe- tition and operates without police inter- ference. Four residences within a radius of a few blocks were ransacked during the absence of the families between 3 and 9 p. m., Sunday, and in only one in- stance was the culprit seen. That was a back view, and consequently the only description of him available is- his height. He is 5 feet 8 inches tall Three months ago 11 homes within a radius of two blocks were robbed on a Sunday* evening. Since then Sunday evening robberies have been common in the neighborhood.

Trunks had been broken open and the contents of dressers, chiffoniers and wardrobes were svattered about in con- fusion. A quantity of silverware, sev- eral articles of jewelry and a child’s bank with a small anpount of money were missing. The residence of William C. Cramer at wa North Twenty-third’ street was en- tered some time between 7 and 9:30 p. m. A woman's gold watch and chain and $15 were stolen.

POLICE CHIEF HELPS RUNAWAY SCHOOLGIRL GET MARRIED Gives Away Secret When He Finds Bride Deceived Him. ‘Tell your troubles to the police,” was the motto followed by Joseph A. Beck of Walshville, Ill., and Miss Ola B. Oller of Litchfield, Ill., when, fail- ing in their quest for a justice in East St. Louls Sunday, they went to he office of Chief of Police Purdy for as- sistance. Chief Purdy responded by calling in Judge William B. Bell, who performed the ceremony in thé Chief’s office in the police station. Night Chief Michael Doyle was one of the witnesses. . After the ceremony Mrs. Beck, who is 19 years old, pledged all concerned to secrecy, telling them that she was a school teacher at Litchfield and that she would not be able to finish her term if the school board heard of her marriage. ‘ Sunday night Sheriff Michael Bray, of Hillsboro, IIL, called on Chief Purdy and the latter asked him if he knew a Miss Oller at Litchfield. Bray informed him that she was a schoolgirl and not @ school teacher. Chief Purdy felt that he was justified in releasing the story after that. Beck is°22 years old and is a farmer near Walshville.
