three years prior to the time when he entered the Cabinet. The partner to whom he referred, hut whom he did not name, was Henry W.. Taft; but instead of being one suit it was two suits, and they constituted the largest litigation in which the Sugar Trust was ever involved, being actions for dam- ages in the sum of $30,000,000 for wrécking the Pennsylvania Sugar Refin- ing Co., the only independent rival of the Sugar Trust. It further developed that these suits were not settled, even at the time when Mr. Wickersham was appointed Attorney-General of the United States, and that when he left the partnership share of the accrued fees. rm to enter the Cabinet he received his It should be borne in mind that at the-time these facts came out it was not known who were the real purchasers of the San Jose friar estate or who were their legal representatives, but it was thought a decidedly sus- *picious circumstance that the estate was reported to have been sold to an agent of the Sugar Trust as the result of the opinion of the Attorney- General, wifose firm represented the Sugar Trust at the time he entered the Cabinet. Firm Carried on,Negotiations of Sale of Land to Sugar Trust The next disclosure, which was even more startling, was that this same firm had carried on the negotiations that resulted in the purchase of the San Jose friar estate, and that the actual parties in interest were Horace Havemeyer, a director of the Sugar Trust; Charles H. Senff, who was Vice- President of the Sugar Trust under the presidency of H. O. Havemeyer, and who only resigned his directorship in that company after the exposure of the New York Custom House frauds, and Havemeyers in the sugar business. Charles J. Welch, an associate of the While these disclosures were indeed startling, the manner in which they were brought about is a story no less discreditable to the parties involved— a story which appears to discredit the transaction even in the minds of those who were engaged in it. . It was a far cry from the mere newspaper report of the sale of the San Jose estate and the opinion.of Attorney-General Wickersham, to the full showing which caused the House Committee on Insular Affairs in the closing “hours of the session to unanimously report a resolution of investigation, which was adopted by the House of Representatives; and the manner in which this showing was made is no less interesting and significant than the showing itself. The War Department, which, so far as insular affairs are concerned, means Gen. C. R. Edwards, Chief of the Bureau of Insular Affairs, sent to the House of Representatives three explanations with reference to the sale of the friar estates. The first of these explanations was a letter dated Jan. 28, 1910, and the next was a letter dated March 24, 1910, neither of which was given out until after the sale of the San Jose estate was first attacked in the House 25. on March The third explanation was made on April 11 in answer to a general resolution of inquiry, and which was accompanied by a mass of information, which must play an important part in the forthcoming investi- gation. I want to say of these three letters—and I say it with fall knowledge that I may be called upon to appear before the House Committee on Insular Affairs to substantiate my assertion—that I have never seen so many material contradictions, misstatements and evasions in the same amount of matter. I have followed the Ballinger-Pinchot investigation pretty closely and the country in a general way is familiar with ’ i. which the principals in that affair involved themselves; some of the tangles in fairly straight to be compared with the record made by the Bureau of Insular Affairs in explaining its new Philippine land policy. Admitted that-Havemeyer,: Welch and Senff Put Up Cash ‘The letters of Jan. 28 and March 2% Were not read in the House of Repre- Sentatives, but were published in the Congressional Record on March 28, -two days after the writing and publication of Attorney-General Wickersham’s. let- _ tér with reference to his Sugar Trust epnnections. In both of these letters the statement was made unqualifiedly that the San Jose estate had been sold to an individual, a man named E. A. Poole. This was the man named in the press dispaches as having bought this land as the agent of the Have- meyers, al The object of the Bureau of Insular Affairs in stating and restating that the sale was to an individual was to get Around the apparent violation of sec- tion 75 of the organic law of the Phil- ippines, which limits agricultural cor- porations by their charters to the own- ership of 2500 acres of land and sub- jects foreign corporations to the same limitation. The Attorney-General] in his opinion had held that the quantity lim- itations upon the public domain ac- quired from Spain did not apply to the friar lands, but section 7% still remained a8 a bar to the acquisition of more than 2500 acres by an agricultural corpora- tion such as would naturally be formed to go into the sugar or tobacco busi- ness, which are the principal industries S stated in both his letters that st the islands; and it was to show that ce sécticn was not violated that Gen. t - rs mort

Edwards, shortly after sending these letters in apeared before the House Commit- ‘on Insular Affairs in behalf of @ pending Philippine legislation, rticularly of a bill which he had used to be introduced in the Senate, hich virtually abolished limitations land ownership in.the Philippines: that is to say, it provided that an tn- fividual might purchase 12560 acres in. stead of 40, with no limitations upon the allenation of it—a provision of law which would have made the stea). ing of the public domain in the United Mtates look like petty larceny if it ever found its way into the Philippine Fonstitution, I¢ happened that while ven, Edwards was appearing before {Ac committor, I had a conversation ith nome of tte members about the date of the friar lands as the resuit of which Gen. Edwards and his av- “artant, Maj. MclIatyre, were asked iome questions, among others as to ho were tho real purchasers of the - Jone estate. They then admitted int Horace Havemeyer, Welch and had put up all the money and therefore the real parties in in- it, and that Poole, as reported in eablegrams, was merely an agent. Edwards, however, still insisted no corporation was involved. ow, it happened that in the second Meech made by me on this question, Which wae on March 2, the day follow- ig the publication of the two letters of wn. 28 and March &, I mentioned the Development Co. as having te : n incorporated under the laws of Jersey to do business in the in- en 31 : “geo Mean I don’t mind admit- ng at this time that that was all the I then had concerning this ’ company, which I shall show later to be the greatest engine of exploitation ever devised. 4 The committee members asked the insular officers what they ‘knew about this company. ' They replied that they heard mention made of it in Congress, whereupon they wired to the Govern- er-General at Manilla, whose answer, they said, indicated that such a com- pany had been organized and probahly would be authorized to do business in the Philippine Islands. Upon learning of this I put through a specific reso)u- tion of inquiry, calling for the cable- grams, and when these were produced it developed that when Edwurds and McIntyre made their Staternents, which was on April 13, they then had in their possession a cablegram from Gov. Forbes, dated April 9, specifically in- forming them that the Mindoro Devel- opment Co. had been organized under the laws of New Jersey and had been authorized to do business in the Phil- ippine Islands. This is one of the mildest “samples of the evasions that have been met with at every turn in this inquiry, Coupled With Purchasers. The Mindoro Development Co. is coupled ‘up with the purchasers of the 'Ban Jose estate, and with the estate it- self by the fact that it is now having constructed at the Honolulu Iron Works a $600,000 sugar plant for the San Jose estate, and that the manager of the Mindoro Development Co. igs Mr. Bw. Eh. Poole the agent who represented Have- meyer and his associates in the purchase of the estate. It is admitted by the Bureau of In- sular Affaire that section 75 of the or- ganic law of the Philippines absolutely prohibits agricultural corporations from owning and controlling to exceed 2500 acres of land in the Philippines, and that this means all lands, whether pub- lic domain, friar lands or lands in pri- vate ownership. They are, therefore, placed in the position of having con- nived with the purchagers of these lands to violate this provision of the law. At the same time that the Department of Justice was moving to secure the indictment of Horace Havemeyer as a director of the Sugar Trust for criminal frauds against the Government, it ren- dered an opinion which made nugatory the protecting limitations of the Philip- pine constitution and affirmed the sale of the San Jose friar estate to this wame Horace Havemeyer, while the Bu- reau of Insular Affairs connived with him to evade section 7. To permit the agent-and manager of a corporation to hold the nominal titie to these lands while it exercised every other right and privilege of ownership, is a subterfuge #0 transparent as to require no further comment. Authorities Co-Operative. We are familiar in this country with great Corporations resorting to subter- fuges to evade the law until such time as they are discovered and brought to book by the authorities, but we have not yet become accustomed to the au- thorities themselves co-operating with the violators of the law to bring about its faflure. We are doing this in the Philippines, and I um prepared to prove . it, : Gen. Edwards’ first two letters con- tained a number of things which I can-

not go into here; but which will be , L but their record looks’ never knew anything about it until they j

gone into by the Investigating Commit- tee. There are some things of more im- mediate interest in his third letter of April 11, which was accompanied by & number of cablegrams and letter con- taining the first information as to the ] persons, directly involved in this trans- action and’ the relations between them. The first two letters referred to the attorney for the investors, but as in At- torney-General Wickersham’s letter about his Sugar Trust connections ana his former law partner, the name of the investor’s attorney was not disclosed. Mysterious Attorney in the Case. Among a large number of other things called for, the general resolution of in- quiry which brought this third letter of tion asked for the name of the attorney for the purchaser, referred to in those @arlier letters. The letter of April J1 disclosed that the attorney for the in- vestor was named De Gersdorff. Also that the name of the attorney of the purchasers was named De Gersdorff. Since this attorney had been quoted as authority for the legality of the sale, and as he had been referred to as & very able attorney, it was thought to be of some interest to ascertain his iden‘i- ty, that it might be determined just how much weight to attach to his opinion. It must be admitted that when it de- veloped that this attorney, upon whose opinion the validity of the deal was in Part bolstered, was the same attorney who had cajled at the War Departmet* to ascertain whether the sale would be valid, it robbed his opinion of some weight. But it further appeared in this letter that Mr. de Dersdorf was only brought into the case by Mr. John Hen- ry Hammond of the firm of Strong & Cadwallader of New York, of which firm Henry W. Taft is now a leading mem- ber, and of which Attorney-General Wickersham was a leading member un- til he entered the Cabinet. A great deal of weight has been given to the connection between the Sugar Trust and the law firm of Strong & Cadwallader, but the membership of Henry W. Taft and Mr. Wickersham in that firm at the time it represented the Sugar Trust in the great suits already referred to was a mere incident in the situation that gave that firm a right of way through the Philippime constitution for Horace Havemeyer and other Sugar Trust officials. Taft the Supreme Figure. The fact is that, in one capacity or another, President Taft has been the supreme figure in the Philippines for the past 10 years, that during all that time the law firm of Strong & Cadwal- lader has handled the legal end of the bulk of the big business in the Philip- pines, and that. Gen. Edwards, the President’s close friend and adviser, has had, as chief of the Bureau of. Insular Affairs, immediate authority and juris- diction over the archipelago. This law firm has represented or been connected with the bulk of the big improvements in the Philippines railroad construction, railroad bonds upon which the Philip- pine Government guarantees 4 per cent interest for 30 years, harbor improve- ments, municipal franchises, etc. The Bureau of Insular Affairs had the letting of some of this business and has had the controlling influence in all of it; so that, when a member of that firm called at the Bureau of Insular Affairs to begin negotiations for the purchase of the friar lands he needed no credentials. Mr. Hammond called at the Bureau of Insular Affairs on ‘Sept. 3 to negotiate for the purchase of the San Jose estate. In his letter of April 11 Gen. Edwards makes it appear that he knew nothing about Mr. Hammond's call, and only learned of it afterward from his 4ssist- ant, Maj. McIntyre, and that, quoting literally from the letter, “Maj. MclIn- tyre thinks Mr. Hammond did not bring up the purchase of any special piece of property in the Philippine Islands, nor is he positive that he mentioned the purchase of land on the friar estates.’’ However, in the correspondence ac- companying this letter was a cabie- gram from Gen. Edwards to Gov. Forbes at Manila, dated Oct. 22, which cablegram referred to a letter Gen. Edwards had written to Gov. Forbes on Sept. 27 preceding. When this letter was produced in response to a specific resolution of inquiry it was found to contain the statement that “‘a represon- tative of a New York law firm, one of the best in New York, has visited this office in connection with the purchase of the San Jose estate in Mindoro,” Gen. Edwards in Error. This statement clearly establishes the error of Gen. Edwards’ statement in his letter of April 11, disclaiming per- sonal knowledge of Mr. Hammond's ¢al! and the object of his visit, and is be- sides only one of many things which disproves ~~ another statement made by Gen. Edwards, in his second letter to Congress, that the first knowledge he had of the negotiations to sell the San Jose friar estate was the published ca- blegram announcing the sale, which ap- peared in American newspapers Dec. 7. When Mr. Hammond called he was informed that the sale of the estate in bulk was prohibited by the organic law of the Philippines. Gen. Edwards now denies that it was ever contended in the Bureau of Insular Affairs that the limi- tations applied to the friar lands, but the correspondence by cable between himself and the Governor-General of the Philippines and between his bureau and the firm of Strong & Cadwallader shows conclusively that Mr. Hammond was informed to this effect when he called at the Bureau of Insular Affairs on Bept. 3. It appears, however, that he went right along with his plans to buy these lands. Although he may have been in- fluenced somewhat by a letter written to him from the bureau on Sept. 4, calling his attention to the fact that while Porto Rico had even stricter lim- itations than the Philippines, it had not interfered at all with the development of the sugar industry in Porto Rico. In other words, the Bureau of Insular Af- fairs simply gave Mr. Hammond carte blanche to go ahead with his plans, with the assurance that the bureau would see that they were not ham- pered. Mr. Hammond, however, during the interview, suggested that, owing to the relation between the firm and the

.Martin’s Charges Against Officials Connected With N his remarkable story, written for the Post-Dispatch, Representa- tive John A. Martin, who brought about the appointment of a congressional committee to investigate affairs in the Philippines, especially as to the Friar lands, makes serious charges: against the That the San Jose Friar estate was sold to an agent of the Sugar Trust as the result of the opinion of the Attorney-General, whose law firm represented the Sugar Trust at the time he entered the cabinet. That the opinion allowing the sale undid the work of Congress, violated the letter and the spirit of the law and overturned the policy That the three explanations of the sale, sent to the House of Rep- resentatives by the War Department were full of material mis- statements, contradictions and evasions. violation of the law by selling to E. A. Poole, ostensibly as an individual, when it was evident that he acted as an agent for the Sugar Trust, and that General Edwards, chief of staff, admitted that Havemeyer, Welsh and Senff furnished the money. That the Federa! authorities connived with a violation of the law That De Gersdorff, the attorney upon whose advice that the act would be legal the purchase was made, was brought into the case by J. P. Hammond of Strong & Cadwallader, the law firm of which Henry HAT General Edwards denied having discussed the sale with Mr. Hammond after the General had written a letter saying that “a representative of one of the best law firms in New York” had called in connection with the sale of the San Jose estate. That before the authorities gave the opinion that the transaction would be legal, the actual sale was announced, and that the Mindanao company had then been cultivating the land for months in confidence of Friar Lands Affairs got around the apparent

administration it might be desirable toy partment to the sale first of the San | secure the services of another attor- ney. In a letter to the Bureau of In- sular Affairs on Oct. 23 Mr. Hammond added as a further reason for calling ir the services of another’attorney that discretionary acts on the part of the administration were involved.. Asked if Sale-Would Be Valid. Mr. De Gersdorff did not appear on the scene until Nov. 23, when he called at the Bureau of Insular Affairs to ask whether the sale would be void. He called with memorandum made up for him by the Bureau of Insular Affairs and the firm of Strong & Cadwalader. He submitted this memorandum, which was transmitted to the Attorney-Gen- eral on Dec. 4 by the Secretary of War asking for the opinion, which was ren- dered on Dec. 18. On Nov. 2, six days after Mr. De Gersdorff called, Gov. Forbes at Manila cabled Gen. Edwards at Washington that the agreement to sell the estate had already been entered into. It has not yet been developed on what day prior to Nov. 29 the agreement was made, but it has developed that it was made and that Mr. De Gersdorff con- tributed no services whatever towards bringing it about. It is shown by the record that Mr. De Gersdorff never ren- dered any services whatever except to bring to Washington his prepared mem- orandum. The first cablegram announcing this sale appeared in the American news- papers on Dec. 7, eleven days before the Attorney-General rendered his opinion and 15 days before the opinion was cabled to Manila. It is claimed, how- ever, that while the agreement to sell the estate was entered into some time prior to Nov. 29, the sale was not con- summated until Jan. 4 Three days later the Manila Times, which is the unofficial organ of the administration in the Philippines, published the im- portant news that at the time the cane and grass seed had already been planted on the San Jose estate, which had never before been cultivated, that soundings had been made for a dock on the sea coast, that a railway survey had been run from the dock to the estate and that the material had already been sent out for labor quarters. In other words, fhat work had already been accomplished which required months of preparation in the Philip- pines, to say nothing of the preliminary work that must have been done In New York. Company Has Wide Power. This, however, was only a part of the forehandedness of the purchasers of these lands. The Mindoro Development Co., which was organized to exploit them, was incorporated under the laws of New Jersey on Dec. 8, 10 days be- fore the Attorney-General rendered his opinion. This company is authorized to do everything on earth except to con- demn a right of way in the State of New Jersey. Such @ concern must have been deliberating a considerable time be- fore its articles of incorporation were filled at Trenton. The plans at both ends of the line appear not only to have been matured, but executed before the opinion was even asked for, to say nothing of its rendition. - For some reason or other, an opinion which undid the work of the American Congress, which violated both the letter and spirit of the law, which overturned the colonial policy of the United States: and has become such an issue in’ the Philippines that Secretary of War Dick- inson and Gen. Edwards are’ both on the Pacific en route to Manila on ac- count of it, seems to have figured very tinconsiderably in the plans of the #¢x- ploiters. Calamba Estate the Crux, After a while it came to light that the Isabella estate had been sold to a man named W. H. Lawrence, a lawyer in Manila. The presumption is that Mr. Lawrence, like Mr. Poole, is an ageut of a syndicate. A later report says that this estate was sold to a man named Bruce, but as Bruce and Lawrence are law partners, it does not make much difference which one got the nominal title. Then it came to light that the historical Calamba estate has been sold. Upon the face of the record, the sale of this estate breaks down some of the strongest defense made by the War De-

Jose and the Isabella estates. It was claimed that these estates were remote, unoccupied and uncultivated. But the Calamba estate is within 30 miles of Manila by rail. Furthermore, it is one of the richest and most beauti- ful estates In the Philippines. On top of this, the controversy between the friars and the tenants over the ownership NE neal

of this estate resulted in the Philip- pine revolution of 1896. As a result of “ that revolution Jose Rizal, the foremost Filipino fm all the archipelago, was seized by the Spanish arms, courtmar- tialed and shot to death on the Lunetts at Manila. He was executed on Dec. 31, 1896, and the date of his death is commemorated in a national manner in the Philippines. The Riza} family and their tenants claimed the Calamba es- tate. After the Spanish-American War this estate became the crux of the negotia- tions to buy the Friar lands for the avowed purpose of distributing them among the tenants. It has now passed into the hands of the Dillingham sugar interests of Honolulu, which is to say iz has passed into the hands of the Sugar Trust. I am reliably informed, in fact I have been informed by cable, that the Filipinos are very much wrought up over the sale of the Calam- ba estate. Suppressed Sale of Tala Estate. The last thing that came to light, and in my judgment the cap sheaf in the whole situation, was the sale of the Tala estate to Frank W* Carpenter, the executive secretary of the Philip- pine Government. In all its reports and explanations, and although this infor- mation was specifically called for, the Bureau of Insular Affairs suppressed not only the name of the purchaser of the Tala estate, but the fact that the estate has been sold. Just recently the disclosure -came through a report from the director of lands at Manilla, in answer to a cable from the Secretary of War under di- rection of the House of Represent- atives. Carpenter has a progressive agreement for the purchase of the en- tire estate as rapidly as it becomes va- cant. As the Philippine Government has at its command a law enabling the ejectment of the tenants, there is no question that the entire estate will pass from their occupancy as rapidly as de- sired, The same report disclosed the lease for % years at 8 cents per acre of 3000 acres of public lands to EB. L. Worces- ter, a nephew of Dean C. Worcester, the Philippine Secretary of the Interior, who is required by law to approve -<.ll land sales and who, therefore, approved this lease to his nephew, as well as the sale to Carpenter and the sale of the other Friar estates. When such an admitted condition -<- ists in the Philippine Government, it conclusively establishes the need of an investigation. The railway situafion, while not embraced in the forthcoming investigation, is from all reports no less in need of a thorough overhauling. For 12 years now the Philippines have been in the control of a handful of Federal appointees 7000 miles removed from the seat of supervision. They are evidently in need of a checking up which will go into every department of the Philip- pine administration: and that is what _8T.

ARKANSAS PENITENTIARY CLERK KILLS BOY FOUND IN HOME Returns Unexpectedly and Dis- covers 18-Year-Old Youth in His House. CONWAY, Ark., July 6—John A. Pit- cock, assistant clerk at the Arkansas State Penitentiary, and a brother of Supt. J. A. Pitcock of the Penitentiary, on returning to his home here last night, stabbed ‘Huggins Gibson, 18 years old, of Little Rock, Ark., to death. Shortly after 10 o’clock Pitcock arrived from Little Rock. He reached his house about 10:30 o’clock. Neighbors heard a woman's cries. A few minutes later Pitcock called the Sheriff’s office and announced that he had killed a man. Gibson’s body, hacked almost beyond recognition, was found on the floor. He died within a few minuites. Pitcock later was released on his own

recognizance, pending the Coroner's in- quest tomorrow. j ee ree ™ oes Frank J. Kuy Thinks Happi- ness Was. Wrecked by Woman’s Good Looks, Frank J. Kuy wants a 4ivoree from Mrs. Essie Kuy of 16837 Washington ave- ' nue because, he says, she holds hands, makes go0-goo eyes and otherwise con- — ducts herself as an unmarried flirt. Mrs. Kuy, according to Mr. Kuy, is a very handsome woman, in fact beautiful, and this, togetherj'with her actions, caused many masculine admirers to prowl about. One of these, : particular, the petition sets forth, “entered without due second thought the a e of petitioner and de- fendant with a \beautiful pair of shoes he hoped to present to defendant, which provoked petitioner and led to what isa known in St. Louls as a rough house, from which said visitor departed In. great haste,” all of which, Mr. Kuyy says, tended to lessen his love and re- spect for his beautiful wife. The petition, Andrew H. Jackson, relates that they were married Jan. 12, 1904, by the Hon. hobert (“Bobbie”) Carroll. The peti- tioner avers that ‘‘a large portion of his. money was expended by the defendant in providing herself with most elegant garb for one in her station, a laboring man’s wife. One result of this was that his wardrobe became greatly depleted. One time he was compelled to don his ‘other clothes’ for every-day wear, with no substitute to relieve them on Sun- days, holidays and festival seasons, = _—- “Consequently he became @ very seedy person, whose shabby garb, contrasted with the shimmering garments worn by his spouse, gave him a fantastic ap- pearance which subjected him to the scrutiny of the public, resulitng in pain ful self-consciousness, together with an ever increasing preference for home and the simple life rather than the so- cial whirl companioned with wife, while exciting interest as a possible poor re- lacion of a wealthy and fortunate woman.” Mrs. Kuy, according to Kuy, neglected her home almost dally, “strolling to and fro, going on river and ex- curstons and to dance halls, where she danced to utter exha”stion, with divers

EXPLAIN OR PAY BACK $170,000 . Cited to Show Cause Why He Should Not Disgorge Assurance Funds. -®&

TELLS OF LOAN DEAL

Declares Miller Tried to Bor- row $17,000 From Com- pany on Acre Land. | > Judge Withrow Wednesday ordered Harry B. Gardner, secretary and fisca' agent of thé Continental Assurance and International Fire Assurance companies, to appear in court at 10 a. m. Monday and show cause why he should not dis- zorge $170,399.34. This amount, the books cf the concerns purport to show, was yuxid Gardner for commissions on tie sule of stock for “expenses of organi- zation.”’ Gardner is at present in involuntary bankruptcy. Aj plication for the order was filed by Chase Morsey, attorney for Matt G. Reynvids, receiver of the Continental cumpany. Morsey set forth that the books show approximately $298,000 to have been realized from the sale of stock, and $128,000 to remain in the treas- ury, of which assets, however, only $14,- 000 is in cash. The disappearance of the difference, more than $170,000, is account- . ed for on the books by ‘‘commissions”’ to Gardner and “organization expenses.”’ After Walter J. Miller, president of the companies, had failed to persuade the directors of the Continental com- pany to lend him $17,0w on land he owned at Lamar, Mo., he transferred the land to C. H. Smith, an employe in his bank, and again besought the loan, according to new statements made Wednesday by Gardner. Miller was active in having permanent receiv- ers appointed for both companies and Gardner was a defendant in the pro- ceedings. Miller Denies Borrowing. But the directors investigated the deeds to the rroperty, says Gardner, u.scovered Miller's recent ownership of it and again declined to make the loan. Thereupon, taking pity upon Miller, Gardner declares he loaned him the $17,000 out of his own pocket. These al- legations Miller denounced as ‘‘abso- lutely false, in a telegram to the Post- Dispatch Wednesday. Smith's note and the mortgage se- curing it are in Gardner’s possession. Hie declares they belong to him and were bought with his own money, ut Receiver Reynolds says that the deed of trust is the property of the Continental concern and that he will attempt to recover it from Gardner. Attorney John S. Leahy, Miller’s coun- sel, has expressed fear that the deed might vanish from the jurisdiction of the St. Louis Circuit Court. Light is. being thrown upon the origin and ownership of the deed by the controversy between Miller and Gardner, which has waxed fervid. Gardner has admitted that he used the deed to raise $13,000 with which} Money Awaited Juror to to make a first payment for a con- trolling interest in the 8t.

gO. P. UANDERS E WIFE KEPT BRIE FROM HUSBAND ~ BROWNE'S TRIAL Testifies Grocer Told Her

CHICAGO, July 6.—A fresh sensation in. connection with the legislative brib- ery scandal arose tolay when State’s Wayman announced that an Gardner Quotes Records. *T have the records,” said Gardner to @ Post-Dispatch reporter, “to show that Miller formerly owned the 846 acres at Lamar, which ara now in Attorney indictment had been voted, charging John A. Maloy, a grocer, with attempt- ing to corrupt Oscar T. Morford, a juror the name of C. H. Smith. Miller tried at first, as president, to loan himself $17,000 of the coftpany’s money on the land, but the directors in the recent trial of Lee O’Neil Browne. Morford, his wife and his_ father, Vnoroughy Morford, testified before the grand jury. Mrs.. Morford testified that informed him the proposition could not be considered. He thereupon transferred the property to Smith, who is, I understand, an employe in Miller’s bank at Lamar. “It is allewed that Miller issued a warranty deed for the property to Bmith on Sept. 1, 1909, for a consid- eraiton of $38,000, but the records show that Miller on that’ date didn’t own 846 acres. On Jan. 10, 1910, he acquired 240 acres of the present tract from Henry E. and Jacob C. Surbrugsg. “After this “sale” had been rejécted Miller again applied for the loan of $17,000 in ‘the name of Smith. Directors Grant Gillespie and W. H. Thompson believed the transfer to be a subterfuge and again prevented Miller from obtain- ing the loan. . “I had given Miller my, promise to see that he got the money and wnen the di- rectors turned him down, I personally loaned him the sum. Therefore I am the owner of the deed of trust securing Smith's note.’’ Miller Says Land Is Smith's Mfller, replying to these assertions by telegraph, said: “The land belongs to Charles H. Smith. He has never been in my em- ployment or that of the bank I am connected with. The transfer to Sinith was an actual sale of the land, $46 acres. “There is nothing to evade. whole transaction is straight on my part. “The Surbruggs never had any title to any part of this iand. Thetr aeedq was made to correct an error in de- scription made in a former deed to them. All of this the abstraé shows clearly. “This loan was sought for Charles?’ H. Smith and for no one elge. Any statement contrary to those I make here is absolutely false” - An application was filed before Judge - MeQuillien Tuesday, at the instance of Receiver G. Lacey Crawford, receiver for the International Co., to compel Gardner to surrender his $6000 automo- shortly after the Browne jury had been sworn, she ‘vent to Maloy’s grocery, which js in the neighborhood in which the Morfords live. Maloy, she said, gave her two cigars which he asked ° her to give to her husband, who had been accepted on the jury. According to State’s Attorney Way- man, Mrs. Morford testified that Maloy asked her to use her influence to per- suade her husband to vote for the ac- quittal of Browne, holding out ag a re- ward for so voting that Morford “would not have to work for a railroad any more,”’ as “he would get a lump of money.” Morford is a switchman and his father a’railroad gateman. He voted consistently for the conviction of the defendant. ‘ Thorough Morforu is said to have tes- tified that the grocer made a similar proposition to him, urging him to in- fluence the juror to hold out for Browne. The offer was not communicated to the juror and he heard ef it first after the jury had been discharged. By agreement of counsel today, the retrial of Browne, charged with bribing Representative Charles A. White to vote for William Lorimer for United States Senator, was set for July 20, LINEMAN KILLED BY SHOCK AT TOP OFA LIGHT POLE Louls Saylor, 21 years old, a line- man in the employ of the Union Elec- tric Light and Power Co., was electre- cuted at the top of an electric light pole at Von Versen avenue and Win- dermere way Wednesday, Saylor was attaching a secondary wire when he accidentally formed a eircuit and 2200 volts of electricity shot through his body, killing him almost instantly.

When I became secretary, I continued the custom.” Money for Imported Beer. Sergt. Moloney stated that he used his expense money to entertain and buy ice\ cream for the wives and children of members of the department who could not attend the benefits. Healy said that the sssociation’s funds were employed to buy imported beer and cigars for members of the Enter- tainment Committee whose palates were too epicurean for local brew. “The Highlands management fed us free,’’ said he, “and included native beer gratis. But several of the men would have nothing but imported beer, and we bought cigars for Detective Edward Schenk because he did not drink.’”’ Nicolay, who testificd for Moloney, said he distributed expense money to the Entertainment Committee ia 1908 in three installments of $10 each, with an extra gift to each man of $ when the $30 apiece proved insufficient. AMENDED CHARGE IS FILED AGAINST LIEUT, M’CORMACK A set of amended charges alleging embezzlement of $285 instead of $400 from the funds of the Police Relief As- sociation were served on Lieut. Thomas McCormack of the Carr Street District by Associate City Counselor Baird, Wednesday. When arraigned last Friday McCor- mack, who has been under suspension since March 15, requested that the charge that he misappropriated $400 in dues and assessments collected by him in 1904 be stricken out, as it was too vague and indefinite. He declared he had receipts to show that he turned into the treasury of the association every dollar he collected as representa- tive of the old Mancnester Avenue Dis- trict in 1904. He wanted to be informed, however, when he collected the $400 he was alleged to have stolen. After going over the evidence in the case’ Baird decided to reduce the amount of the alleged misappropriation to $285, and named the month of March, 1904, as the time of the embezzlement charged. “I'll vindicate myself,’ said McCor- mack, when he had read the revised charge. “I'll produce my receipts and prove that I turned in every cent I collected in March, 1904.” A NT Re CLS Ae eee

RAILROADS WILL FIGHT REDUCTION IN FREIGHT RATE Special to the Post-Dispatch. * JEFFERSUN CITY, Mo., July 6.—If the state railroad commissioners at- tempt to put into effect a proposed new freight rate scleaule which, taken as a whole, is a reduction of present rates the railroad attorneys, who are here today opposing it, announce that the commission will be enjoined either in the State or Federal courts. Some believe the commission ‘is al- ready in. contempt of the Federal courts for attempting to reduce freight rates while enjoined from attempted en- forcement of the maximum freight law. This litigation is now pending in the United States Supreme Court. R. P. Railey of the Missouri Pacific Says the rates proposed are lower than those of the maximum freight law from the enforcement of which the commis- sion is enjoined. Judgs O. M. Spencer of the Burlington, Martin Clardy of the Missouri Pacific and others asked for time in which to analyze the proposed freight schedule and to ascertain if it be compensatory. The members of the commission called the hearing to give the railroads a chance to show cause why the schedule should not go into effect. The new schedule reduces rates on general freight about 8 per cent and increases the rates on corn, wheat and oats 8 to 12 per cent.

DEMOCRATS LIKELY TO BLOCK PETITION 10. REDISTRICT Secretary of State Waits on Legal Opinion From At- torney-General Major. FRIDAY IS. LAST DAY

It Is Believed Opinion Will Hold That Proposed Amendment Is Illegal.

Special to the Post- Dispatch. JEFFERSON CITY, July 6.—Walter S. Dickey, chairman of the Republi- can State Committee this morning ten- dered his senatorial districting petitions to Secretary of State Roach. The lat- ter told Dickey that he would not file them until he had secured an opinion from the attorney-general the sufficiency of the petitions and the le- gality of the proposed amendment. Fri- day is the last day for filing. This is believed to be the first step in a plan which Democrats have formu- lated for preventing the filing of the petitions and the submission of the proposed amendment. It is generally be- lieved that Major’s opinion with refer- ence to the amendment will be adverse. It is understood that he holds the pro- posed amendment is unconstitutional in that it seeks to amend the State Con stitution and at the same time do & .egislative act, namely to lay out the Senatorial Districts of the State. Another Flaw Found, Democrats think they have discovered another flaw in the proposed amend- ment, which is that it does not vide a method for laying out the districts in Kansas City and St. Louis, and if this be true it is conceded to be a serious defect and probably would render the amendment unconstitutional it is be- ileved. The attorney-general said this morning that he would be ready to rend- er his decision by tomorrow or Friday morning. : Dickey or Rush Lake will remain here until the petitions are filed, if such is the case. If the Secretary of State refuses to file the petition, then the law provides that he may be mandamused to compel him to do so. This proceeding will come up in the Circuit Court of Cole County. Either’: side has the right of appeal to the Supreme Court, and this litigation must, under the law, be given precedence over all other litigation. The Republicans raised 48,911 signa- tures. “‘his is twice the number re- quired fer the submirsiok of any amendment. Secretary of State Roach says he will count the signatures and scrutinize them carefully before he files them, and while he is waiting for the opinion of the Attorney General on legal points. upon Petitions by Districts. Following is the number of petitions which the Republican State Committee raised in each district for the submis- sion of the senatoria: redistricting amendment: First, 3237; Second, 3172; Thifd, 2560; Fourth, 276; Fifth, 4019; Sixth 2512; Seventh, 3166; Eighth, 2212; Ninth, 2343; Ienth, 5596; Eleventh, 3131; Twelfth, 2387; Thirteenth, 2153; Four-

DOROTHY DEACON WEDS PRINCE A FN A OREAN American Girl Listless in Her Attitude as She Stands at: Altar. FEW AT THE CEREMONY Marriage Opposed by Bride- groom’s Rich and Titled Mother. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch and New York World. - Copyright. . 1010. 3 by Crete aes Ca. ork LONDON. yuly ‘The. ‘welttes yes- terday of Prince Radziwil to Dorothy Deacon was simple, unostentatious, al- most dull. Twenty-four persons were present; no floral decorationa adorned the. church and there were no wedding favors, nor was there a bridal recep- tion. This was due largely to the vio- lent opposition to the marriage by the Prince’s mother. But the bride, who is only 18 years old, looked like Bougereau’s “Madonna of the Lilies’ as she walked down the aisle carrying a large bunch of lilies in her arm. She wore a gown of soft, cream-col- ored satin, with a wide, tight stole of beautiful lace and satin down the back. Her ecru-colored straw hat was wreathed with ostrich plumes. Her body jewel was a string of single pearls around her neck, which held a hand- some diamond pendant, the bridegroom's gift. The bride is tall, with a beautiful fig- ure, exquisite complexion and violet eyes, and she carries herself with charming grace. She was making an admirable match from the Vanity Fair point of view, and it has been supposed that it was a love match for her as well as for the Prince. But she ap- peared as if intensely bored. She lacked all her usual vivacity; she was anything but the traditional happy, blushing WEDNESDAI NVNNLinw, vu 9, IvIv.

WHITECOTTON HAS A SENATORIAL BEE: UNGED BY F RENDS Declares He Beli Believes There Is Strong Demand for a Country Candidate. James H. Whitecotton of Paris, Mo., former speaker of the House of Repre- sentatives; told a Post-Dispatch reporter at the Laclede Hotel Wednesday that he is seriously considering the requests of his friends that he enter the race for the Democratic senatorial nomination. “I am not ready to make an arnounce- ment,’’ said Whitecotton. “I am getting many letters every day from political friends who want' me to run. There seems to be a strong demand for a can- didate from the country. The two can- didates now leading itn the race are from the cities. A country candidate with no flaws in his record probably would make a strong race. “The people seem to want a man for senator who has no entangling alliances with corporations or privilege-seeking wealth. City candidates are often vul- nerable. If the Democrats had chosen @ man from the country for Governor two years ago it is my belief that Had- ley would not have been elected.” Many of Folk’s strong supporters are advising Whitecotton not to get into the race. They hold that the proper thing to do is to concentrate on Reed, thus insuring his nomination. They promise to get out the full vote of the Folk organization, which is now being carried into every voting precinct in the State. hheed’s supporters are working for Folk for the presidential nomination. A former southeast Missouri Congress- man, who is supporting Francis, de- clared Wednesday that counties that formerly were for Francis for Senator flopped over to Reed, after Francis re- fused to attend the Folk-for-President banquet and commit himself on the Folk candidacy. - | Reed spent Tuesday and saat of Wednesday in 8t.

Both the Pace- maker and Entrant No. 2, equipped with other tires, purchased Goodrich Tires en route as a safe means of reaching the night control. pride. Her few friends in the church noticed her eold, listless bearing and whispered: “Tt is a loveless marriage on her side.” Like One in a Dream. | The priest recited the wedding ritual in French. When the moment came for the Prince to place the ring on the bride’s finger she appeared as one in a dream. She did not realize what was required of her until the priest whispered to her to take off her glove. This she did mechanically. The bride arrived at the church witfi Lord Grey de Ruthyn. whose ancestry dates back to Richard Coeur de Leon, and who possesses the hereditary right to carry the great golden spur at the cor- onation of a King of England. M. De Halpert, the Prince’s uncle by marriage, gave the bride away. Prince Antoine Albert Radziwil is a fairly tall, well set-up man of 2. His rather insignificant features are of a very German type.

Mrs. Eugenia Dochler Declares} She Will Again Try to End Life When Out of Hospital. . Mrs. Eugenia Dochler, alone tn the. world, could find no relief for her loneliness and grief in tears, and so sought i to asphyxiate herself. “I couldn't cry,” she told a Post- Dispatch reporter Wednesday at the city hospital. “If I could have crieq perhaps I wouldn't have done it. But as soon as I get out of here I will try { again.” Mrs. Dochler is 48 years oq. Her two children are dead. Four months ago her husband, Julius, to whom she has been married 21 years, went to California to seek employment. He is a gardener. She has heard noth- ing from him, and she says this was the direct cause of her despond- ency. Mrs. Dochler turned on the kitchen range Toiniay ae in her head into the oven, but she was found by neighbors before her death resulted. She will recover.

_ THE FRIAR LANDS SCANDAL. In the Post-Dispatch today Representative Martin tells the full story of the Philippine friar lands scandal. In his efforts to get at the truth, everywhere he hag met the same desire for suppression, the same studied misrepresen- tation, the same official opposition to publicity. At last investigations by the House and the Sen- ate have been ordered, and the full light of day is to be let in on every phase of the transaction. It was largely at the instance of Mr. Taft while Governor-General of the Philippines that Con- gress imposed strict limitations upon the amount of public lands in the islands that should be sold to any individual or corporation. The avowed intent was to forestall the exploitation of the islands at the expense of the natives. It was chiefly through the tact and diplomacy of Mr. Taft as secretary of war that the negotiations for the purchase of the friar lands were brought to a successful conclusion and that one of the standing causes of native discontent was removed under Anierican rule. It is the Taft adminis- tration that, in defiance of the plain will of Con- gress and against the expressed policy of the United States, has furtively connived at the wholesale alienation of Philippine lands to for- eign capitalists. These 400,000 acres of friar lands were bought from the religious orders for the benefit of the Filipinos, many of whom occupied them as ten- ants. To say that they are not “public lands” is merely to say that they had not yet been pur- chased from the friars in 1902, when Congress in the organic law of the prands placed an abso- lute prohibition upon the'sale of large tracts of the public domain to any one purchaser. A per- sonal ruling by Mr. Wickersham, Mr. Taft’s at- torney-general, made at the instance of Sugar Trust interests, is the sole authority for disre garding the law as provided by Congress. Aside from the sinister circumstances in which that ruling was made, aside from the secrecy with which that ruling was delivered after the first sale of friar lands had been consummated in the Philippines, there is nothing back of it but Mr. Wickersham’s personal opinion. No court was consulted, Congress was carefully kept in complete ignorance of what was going on in the departments in Washington and in Manila. Yet it is on the strength of this unsupported opinion of the Attorney-General that, not one large friar estate, but several of them, have been hastily transferred to Sugar Trust representa- tives and attaches and relatives of Philippine officials. 3 ‘As Representative Martin says: “But it has since transpired that not only are all of them (the friar estates) practically involved, but that there exists a fixed policy to get all of them into the hands of American interests for exploitation.” fs this the “purely altruistic policy” on which Mr. Taft so virtuously dwelt in his Fourth o July address at Cambridge? 2 i i The literary corps which picked Jeffries should be immediately engaged for’: service in the Re- publHcan explanation bureau.

— THE COURT’S DELAY. Dr. B. Clark Hyde, convicted of murder in ~ Kansas City, has been formally sentenced to prison for life. Instead of being taken to the penitentiary he has been remanded to jail pend- ing decision by the Supreme Court on appeal. The Supreme Court does not meet again until September. The docket is crowded. Lawyers say it will be at least six months before the Hyde case is reached. Several weeks will pass after hearing and before decision. | This is an instance not of the law’s delay but of the court’s. Under our system we require an opinion of a court of last resort before we may say finally that a man is guilty. If Dr. Hyde’s a. no violation of rules he should be p in the penitentiary at once. If his trial Was not conducted according to the technical re; finements of our system and he is ultimately to be freed, the unnecessary six or eight months in jail is an outrage. It is a common contention that we have courts enough and judges enough, But if we have, why must a man in Hyde’s position wait an un- pardonable length of time for a hearing? Se Boies Penrose is mentioned as the successor to Aldrich as Republican leader in the Senate. As en-associate of. the Guggenheims, Penrose is splendidly qualified.

_WOMEN AT RENO. Five hundred women were among the thou- sands of men at the ringside in Reno. They were no less intensely interested than the men. Kt is the first time that special arrangements e been made for the accommodation of wom- wa at such an affair, but there seems to be no good reason why they should not be present. Women were proud spectators in Roman arenas and turned thumbs up or thumbs down with as much discretion and abandon as the men. They climb no social barriers to witness bull fights in Mexico or Spain. In this country, however, we have a feeling that there has been a violation of some pro- priety when woman becomes a spectator of a pugilistic contest. Deep within every man is the belief that. woman is different; that she is set apart from brutality by finer feelings and is naturally shocked at the sight of blood. But is she? Hasn’t she the same primitive impulses and the same fighting instincts as her brother? es , 3 : “ Be te ot “ wht): 4 \Is the love of conflict not as strong within her? Can she not school herself to view impassively _ fos bloody scenes? His first gory prize fight causes If he over- comes this, may woman not do the same? Ap- | she may. Our suffragists should take re women gain independence not only by process of law, but earn it by substan- we te proot of thelr right to it A FATAL COMBINATION. How do the Democratic leaders in the city expect to recapture St. Louis for the pirty? The Democratic Business Men’s Executive Com- mittee is now confronted with tho task of pick- ing a ticket for party support in the approach- ing primaries. There are good candidates for the bench gnd for a few important offices, mak- ing it possible to select a fair slate for the upper half of the ticket. But scattered here and there among the can- didates for important offices are men powerful with the party organization, but conspicuously unfit for the nominations they seek. For the minor offices and for Justice of the Peace and Constable the predominance of ward politicians with unsavory records is so great that the com- mittee cannot select a complete slate without including several men whose candidacies would certainly endanger and probably defeat the whole ticket. In the municipal election of last year the Post- Dispatch warned the respectable party leaders that they could not afford to make a combina- tion with discreditable ward bosses and gang leaders. We warned them that compromise with the elements which have disgraced the party and wrecked public confidence in its methods and purposes would defeat it at the polls. The warn- ing was unheeded and,-despite strong leading candidates, the party was overwhelmingly de- feated. - Is the experience to be repeated? Will the party leaders be forced to bow to the dictates of disreputable minor bosses? Will there be another demonstration of the powerlessness or unwillingness of the party to rid itself of the dominance of corrupt and tough elements? Will the voters be asked again to swallow a nauseous combination of smuggery and thuggery? = = ™ w= Now comes the intimation that Director F. H. Newell of the Reclamation Service ig to be sacri- ficed to Secretary Ballinger. The proof -that Ballinger ang officials of proven honesty and ca- pacity cannot stay in the same department should be a sufficient tip to the President. he A

a THEY CAN’T COME BACK. It has-been proved, once for all. They cannot “come back.” The question has been answered, beyond peradventure. James J. Jeffries, “the human bear,” was conceded, up to July 4, to have been “the greatest fighting man of the age.” Apparently, he was invincible. He relinquished his title of heavyweight champion of the world six years ago, because there was nobody of his weight who was able or willing to face him in a fight. After that he spent part of his time on a farm near Los’ Angeles, in the lovely climate of Southern California. But—and here is the point— the fatal “BUT”—as fatal as the subjunctive “IF.” For quite a time after his retirement, al- though a preacher’s son, “Jeff” owned a part interest in a Los Angeles saloon, spent much of hig time there, being the main attraction, just as John L. Sullivan was in his “cafe” in Boston, and just as Tom Sharkey is -in his New York place today—and as.a matter of course he had to absorb a good deal of the “strong stuff,” as sporting men say, “to hold up his end.” The contest came off. Johnson, 32 years old, won easily over Jeffries, 35. James J. Corbett, whom Jeffries had defeated, declared over his signature that Jeffries was “better than ever.” But he was not. Jeffries was worse than ever. This proves the point. No man who persistently abuses his body can possibly be “better than ever.” He cannot even be “as good as ever.” He must pay the penalty, as Jeffries has done. He cannot restore himself. It is the law of com- pensation, exactly as laid down by Emerson, in his admirable essay on that subject. He cannot “come back.” As Jeffries himself said, “I simply was ‘not there,’” e i A Ae rw What is needed is fewer small investigations by men who are interested in concealing what there is to conceal and one large one by men wlio have nothing to conceal. That seems to be the issue to be decidéd the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November. i i A rere DON’T PAY USURY. The Sunday Post-Dispatch told the sad story of a man who had gone to the river three times with the intention of committing suicide. He was in the depths of despair because of being in the clutches of a loan shark. Having borrowed $75 and paid $218 on a contract calling for inter- est at the rate of 10 per cent a month, he still owed $63. Being unable to meet payments promptly, the purchaser of the note bad gar- nisheed the debtor’s salary. And the victim of this outrage adds pathetic- ally: “Surely some law could be enacted to pro- tect the public from loan sharks.” Section 3708 of the Missouri statutes prohibits more than the legal] rate of 8 per cent per annum. It is well understood that loan sharks attempt to disguise their usurious rates by calling them com- mission, forbearance, or anything that happens to suit them. But the courts have decided, in the

-case of Coleman ys, Cole (158 Mo., 253), that “where the sum charged for the use of money exceeds the legal rate of interest, it is usury, no matter in what words it may be clothed.” Another decision is to the effect that “pledges to secure loans at excessive interest will be treated as nullities, however seemingly fair they may be.” Also that “where a contract is for usurious interest, the creditor forfeits the whole interest.” The statutes specifically provide that all pay- ments over the legal rate, will be charged against principal and deducted therefrom. And, that the debtor may not be afraid to bring the matter into court, it is proyfded that the creditor who has charged usury shall bear all the costs of a law suit by the debtor to relieve himself of @ usurious contract or note. . = = rere Numerous news stories are telling pt brave women whipping burglars who invade their homes.

A Mistake To the Editor of the eee to God. The fire of the Waters-Pierce Oi! Co., Saturday morning, will call to memory to readers of the Post-Dispatch the great fire of this plant Friday, July 22, 1892, at 11:30 a m., which was to my belief more disastrous in loss of life and prop- erty. To prevent the fire of 1892 spreading from the number of large tanks filled with oil and which were not consumed, the fire department directed the flow of oil, such as gasoline, coal oil and various others, into the Mill Creek sewer. At this time the stage of the Mississippi River was above the mouth of this large sewer and there was no outlet. With back water and large quantities of oil in this sewer, the largest in the world, a terrific explosion occurred Tues- ORIAL PAGE.

PAY DAY.

day, July 26, 1892 at 4:25 p. m. at Fourth and Chouteau avenue, causing the loss of five lives, among whom were our mother and father. I hope the city officials have taken precaution to prevent another such calamity, as then their defense was, “It could not have been prevented under ordinary care, as it was an act of God.” Should it occur again no doubt the defense will then be, it was an act of the devil. J. H. TIMPE. Is Teddy Genuinely Great? To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Although a Democrat, I, a short while ago, con- Roosevelt would and should be our next Presi- dent. Then the Folk boom gave me courage to hope for his election; then Harmon bobbed up to spoil, in great measure, that hope; then I was handed Warren’s Appeal to Reason, the Socialist peper, setting forth, in plain, if not elegant lan- guage the indictment, deducing from the Colon- el’s own account of San Juan Hill, that Roosevelt is the Dr. Cook of American politics, a parallel to the climbing of Mount McKinley. Other parallels, pessibly, are not so well traced; but it occurred to me, these ideas, and they frightened me: What if Roosevelt should be elected, and should carry out his “pelicies” as expressed in his Guild Hall speech? Was there ever a more un-American idea expressed by an American? What if he should declare hjmself emperor or dictator? Can you think of anyone who would more likely do such a thing? Would not his election by the people almost give him carte blanche to do such a thing? What if he should prove himgelf a veritable Dr. Cook? What meat has this our Caesar fed upon te become so great? It is said he was heartily in favor of the Jeffries-Johnson mill. It is said he never shot that Spaniard in the back at San Juan Hill. It is said he never charged up San Juan Hill. It is said that Harriman did not ‘lie.” Let us think of these things before we commit ourselves to a third term, for this, our great Napoleon: That he is great, there is no doubt, but is he good? L. P. PALMER. A British Farce. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I have always had an idea that the British Government (not including royalty) is better than ours. I have changed my mind since read- ing that “there is no doubt that the present house of commons, like every house which has met since 1870, shows a majority for woman suffrage. Indeed, while over 400 members are known to be favorable; not more than 70 have declared themselves hostile.” There is a British Cabinet which may smother any bill by keeping it from coming up for third reading and final vote. It is plain, therefore, that British Govern- ment is a farce. AMERICAN. Liberty: More Than Picture Hats. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. To G. M. I would say that it is a far cry from the question of “knives and forks” to sharing the liberty supposed to be every American’s birth- right. If it is a “fake” idea to regard liberty from the human standpoint rather than a sex attribute then I plead guilty to the name. As the principles upon which this Government is founded do not apply to women, I fail to see why she should honor a flag in which she has no share. There are souls to whom liberty and justice mean more than theater tickets or picture hats. A despotism, even if ultra benevolent, demoralizes both parties. “United we stand, divided we fall,” is true ina large sense. Since one sex is abso- lutely dependent upon the other, there can be no united possession to the undisputed rights of life, Uberty and the pursuit of happiness. It cer- tainly presages a “fall” when half the population are thought unfit for self-government and every effort is being put forth to keep them in that condition. Since the more fortunate half are born, brought up and trained in the public schools by this governmentally ignorant portion, they, too, cannot develop as they should. I am five generations removed from the foreign element he refers to, but I am nevertheless aware of the fact that many American citizens of for- eign birth could give G. M. pointers on how to spell liberty. LULU MacCLURE CLARKDE. More Downtown Parks. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. An article appeared in your paper a short time back which stated that Congressman Bartholdt had secured $300,000 with which to purchase ground for a new Federal building. I should like to make another suggestion, and that is this: We have not sufficient park area in the business dis- trict. Let the city sell the old City Hall prop- erty to the Government for this $800,000 and as much more as we can get from Uncle Sam; place this new building in the center of this square and convert it into a beautiful park. This will faco on Twelfth street, making a connécting link with the Municipal Court scheme along Market street. I might go on a little bit further and suggest to the Civic League that they take this matter in hand and continue this scheme out Mar- ket street to Grand avenue, there connecting with Forest Park boulevard, giving us a boulevard from downtown clear out to the grandest park in the country. JULES A. MARTIN. Democratic Party’s Condition. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Doctor Dockery’s diagnosis of the Democratio party’s condition, viz. “that no kind of blunder can beat it out of victory at the coming election! Ané that he is going to take charge of the patient himself this fall and administer a few doses of ‘old Doctor Dead Shot's’ famous com- peund on his own account,” should in my opinion be referred to the corhmittee on blunders. It is no uncommon thing fora convalescent to get @ bad setback by the continued strenuosity of the dcctor. . cluded, in view of the failure of Taft, and of the! hopelessness of a chance for a Democrat, that}

GENUINE CONSERVATION, From the New York World, In withdrawing from settlement near- ly 9,000,000 acres of public land which may be available for water-power sites and mining purposes, Mr. Taft has made prompt use of the new congservation law passed by Congress on the eve of adjournment. His act should silence some of those rabid critics who have been assailing his good faitu as a con- servationist. The test of their good faith will lie in their willingness to com- mend his course. The theory that the President could do what he pleased with the public do- main on any pretext was altogether sat- isfying to a certain kind of mind which regards laws and constitutions as ob- stagles to be swept aside by executive act whenever desirable. Mr. Taft, like most careful lawyers, doubted his au- thority to withdraw large areas of pub- lic land merely because he was person- ally a believer in the policy of con- servation. He insisted that Congress give the President that power, and after an obstinate fight having been invested with that power, he applied it in a prac- ‘tical way in the public interest. As a ‘practical man he wented lasting results, not merely hasty measures of doubtful legality that lead to endless litigation.

It was 10 o’clock that night when Am- 'brose crawled homeward across. the bridge and down~-the narrow street. Pennies had come,but seldom. There were few who carew to hear the wheezy tunes of his wretchéd instrument. His feet and back ached. He was faint and nauseated with hunger. He wheeled his little barrow into the entry and came slowly along toward the door of his abode.: A figure loomed up from the shadows and accosted hiin. He started back, and his hand darted like enthing to the inner pocket of his coat. “Who are you?’ he asked harshly. “What do you want?” “Not another crack on the head, my friend,’ Gilbert Hannaway said grim- ly. “I want to talk with you.” Ambrose peered into his face. It’s you, is it?” he exclaimed. “You want to talk with me, eh? Well, I have noth- ing to say. I am dumb,” “You will change your mind present- ly,”” Hannaway said. ‘The only ques- tion is whether you will come with me to the public house over there or wheth- er I shall go with you to your rooms. Ambrose eyed the lights of the public house, and a sudden sick longing as- sailed him. There were enough pennies only for Chicot’s supper and his own. There was nothing left for drink, and there were long hours before he could turn into his miserable bed. Hannaway saw his hesitation and led the way across the street. mt “Come,” he said, “that is sensible, Ambrose made no answer until they had reached the door of the public house. A pleasant sense of warmth swept out to them through the swing- doors. His eyes glittered. “Tl would drink with you tonight,” he muttered, “even though you were Jean the Terrible.’’ HAT will you take 66 to drink?” Han- turning companion. “T will as ins i and hot bread, too, a sandwich. Anything to eat. There is a seat there in &@ warm corner. If you want me to talk, I must sit down.”’ He led the way down the room toa corner where a sn:all table stood in front of a leather couch. As he walked the mud and damp oozed from his broken boots. Hannaway was aware of a slit in his coat, buttoned high up to his throat to conceal the ab- sence of a collar. In the darkness outside he had been a dejected-look- ing object enough. Here, in the bril- liant ao he seemed little more than a bundle of rags.

WEDNESDAY EVENING, JULY 6, 1910. BALLINGER'S MOST | ACTIVE FOE GEIS * ROOSEVELT'S AD Ex-President Openly Sup- ports Congressman Poin- dexter of Seattle. THEY HAVE LONG TALK Hunter Is Believed to Be Planning a New National Movement.

‘Special to the Post-Dispatch. OYSTER BAY, N. Y., July 6.—Theo- dore Roosevelt has come out tn favor of Miles Poindexter, the Congressman from Seattle, who is Secretary Bal- linger’s most active enemy. He has announced that Thursday he will re- celve four more insurgent senators and representatives. He wishes no mention made in advance of the names of his expected guests, but there is every indication that he has in mind a nationa] political movement that will create a great amount of dis- ‘cussion, Aside from National politics Col. Roosevelt is planning to keep a tight stip upon the New York SBtate situa- tion. He was in communication with Goy. Hughes yesterday afternoon over the long distance telephone and later said: ry “Gov. Hughes tells me that he will attend the funera] of Chief Justice Fuller, and that he will visit me here, arriving either Thursday or Friday morning. He may remain here for some time. I cannot say how long.” He Is Piles’ Opponent. Congressman Poindexter represents the district in which Secretary Ballinger lives. He is at present a candidate for the Senate in opposition to Senator Piles, who is a “Taft man.” In speaking of the visit of Mr. Poindexter, Col. Roose- velt said: ne “Representative Poindexter and I went over together the political situation in the Northwest. He assured me that he ‘position of United States he is politically opposed to . Of the party headed by Sec- retary Ballinger. Mr. Poinaexter is a fine type of man.”’ Congressman Poindexter left Sagamore Hill with strong assurances that he would have the support of Col. Roose- velt in his fight for the senatorship. The Colonel was in riding attire and received the newspaper men in his li- brary, which is still piled with letters that are as yet. unopened. His attitude in speaking of the insurgents who have been his visitors indicated that he re- garded them as close friends. He, for the first time, mentioned the Ballinger- Pinchot episode. He said he had dis- cussed the affair with Mr. Poindexter. Will Support Poindexter. While he declined to make any direct statement, he clearly indicated that his support would be given to Ballinger’s most bitter enemy—Poindexter. This was emphasized by Mr. Poindexter’s final statement as he boarded a train after leaving the Hill. He said: ‘€ shall make my fight on an anti- Ballinger platform ani will have the best man of all behind me.”’ One of the newspaper men interview- ing Col. Roosevelt had one hand ban- daged. The Colonel inquired as to the cause of the accident, and was told that the reporter had injured his hand in whipping an immigrant who had struck his wife at the Oyster Bay sta- tion. “Fine, fine,”” said the former Presi- ident. ‘‘That’s an honorable wound. American men won't permit wife-beat- ing.’ ALAN R. HAWLEY SUES FOR PROPERTY DEEDED TO SISTER She Transferred It to Husband and Now John R. Bradley Has Control. BRIDGEPORT, Conn., July 6—Alan R. Hawley, the former balloonist, and his brother, William . Hawley, today brought a suit to recover $20,000 worth of property from John R. Bradley, who backed Dr. Cook’s North Pole expedi- tion. The Hawleys are brokers in New York, under the name of Hawley & Co. Traveling abroad two years ago with their sister, Jennie M. Hawley, they introduced to her Louis Lévee, a bal- loonist, who had worked for Hawley. Levee returned to New York. with the Hawleys. He is a Frenchman, about 26. Miss Hawley went back with him to Paris, where they were married, then they returned to New York. The Hawleys found that their sister had transferred the title to property in New Canaan to her husband. They had placed the property in‘ her name, tak- ing her notes for security. They brought suits in the New York courts aggregating more than $100,000 to recover on these notes and recently ob- tained judgments of about $31,000. They brought similar guits in the Fairfield County Superior Court in this city and on Saturday got a judgment of $11,300. When they sought execution they found their sister and her husband no longer owned the New Canaan property, but had transferred it to W. R. Talmany of Norwalk, who had turned it over. to John R. Bradley.

No RANTED that going away for the (5 summer. is largely. a. matter of bowing to tyrant Fashion—that nine timés out of ten when you go out of town seeking. change of air and scene, combined with all the comforts of home, you are sadly taken in by the alluring inducements of the promoter of certain summer resorts, how, on the other hand, are you going to declare in- Gcependence of enslaving habit and at the’ same time find congenial society and amusement at home? Watch the Crowds on Streets Leading to Levee HIS is a question elicited by my re- ag cent series picturing the draw- : backs of the summer resort which appeared in the Post-Dispatch. The question was thrown at me in a way to challenge my reply. I have first to direct the questioner to follow. any evening the gayly attired, light-of-foot, laughing, chattering pro- cession of summer boys and girls down Washington avenue, Olive street or any of those thoroughfares that lead to the levee.

Providence Up in Arma, PROVIDENCE, R. IL, July 6.—No ex- hibition of the Jeffries-Johnson fight pic- tures will be allowed in Providence. Chairman William H. Luther of the Board of Police commissioners, stated today that the rules made about three years ago against moving pictures of this character would be rigidly enforced.

Cincinnati Falls in Line, Schwab said today he would not allow the Johnson-Jeffries fight pictures to be shown in this city.

The river steamer boasts not the fashionable -expensiveness of the ocean liner. But the same old moon gilds all decks alike and spins her web of en- chantment upon all scenes, turns all shore lights into goblin gatherings. A kindly providence at times makes yup in imagination what she takes away in grandeur. Where hearts are young and still subject to the iNusion of youth, no doubt as much romance per heart throb is generated on the Mississippi steamboat as on a Mauretania. If your heart action ig all right the doctors say you can endure the Sum- mer anywhere. A good old reliable breeze follows the river—the same that supplies many a fashionable resort.

NEW YORK, July 6.—New York will not place an embargo on the moving pictures of the Jeffries-Johnson fight. At least’ so’ Mayor Gaynor said when his attention was called to the action of the Baltimore and Washington au- thorities. The Mayor said an attempt might just as well be made to prevent the publication of accounts of the fight. He added that he felt sure New York- ers would not be provoked to violence by the pictures. South Africa Against Pictures. CAPETOWN, South Africa, July 6.— There is‘a widespread demand liere for the prohibition in South Africa of the pietures of the Jeffries-Johnson fight, owing to their effect on the natives, Signs already are evident among them of excitement on account of the victory of the negro.

The course is at present known «s Camp No. 4, but Capt. Robert McCulloch and Judge Dan- iel G. Taylor say they will ask the St. Louis Aero Club to christen it ‘“Lam- bert Field,’’ in honor of President Lam- bert. Several members of the Board of Gov- ernors of thé club and a number of newspaper men inspected the field Tues- day afternoon, the private car ‘‘Mera- mec” having been placed at their dis- posal by Capt. McCulloch. In the center of the field is a clump of trees, surrounding a small, private graveyard, which cannot be disturbed, under the terms of the lease.

McCulloch, ‘‘and there is not room for another person.”’ Field Will Be Rolled. About 20 acres of the field are now standing in young corn, which will be plowed under. The rest of the tract is covered with wheat stubbie and shocks of grain awaiting: threshing. Lambert says that the entire course will be plowed, harrowed and rolled hard and flat. The tract itself is perfectly level, “and is surrounded as far as the eye can see by comparatively flat land, at nearly any point of which an aviator could make a safe and easy landing. The field will be accessible, during meets, by four lines, says Capt. McCul- loch—the Olive, Hodiamont, Page and Wellston, the cars of which. will start from Fourth and Olive streets. The running time to the field from the downtown district is about an hour and 10 minutes. The Wabash station at Kin- loch Park is a féew blocks from the field, and automobiles may reach it by the Natural Bridge, Florisant and Brown roads. The, United Railways head said he would have been better pleased could the field have been situated within the S-cent zone of the street car service. The fare to the field is 10 cents. ‘You can carry more than twice as many people for a nickel as you can for a dime,’’ said Capt. McCulloch. Only Tract to Be Had. President Lambert assured him that, for the last year, he has been search- ing for an aviation field, and that the tract at Kinloch Park is the only one Which meets all requirements reason- ably well. The first meet to be held at “‘Lambert Field’’ will be the novices’ contest, Pres- ident Lambert hopes, which may be postponed until the field is ready. It will be in perfect condition within three weeks, he says. CURTISS FLIES OUT TO SEA TWO MILES IN AEROPLANE ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., July 6.— Glenn Curtiss made the first aeroplane trip above the Atlantic Ocean when he guided his biplane in an eight-minute flight along the front of the city, going about two miles to sea, The trip ex- tended from the ‘‘Million dollar pier’’ to the Inlet and back to the Chelsea limits of the resort, with a final dash to the starting place. Although the high tide left a starting place in soft sand hardly 50 yards wide and only twice as long, the aviator last evening secured a start from there that clearea his machine from the breakers in front of him and then landed with hardly a jar within a few feet of the tracks made as he started. With Curtiss having demonstrated his ability to fly over the ocean local en- thusiasts are anxiously awaiting the arrival of Brookins, Coffyn and other aviators entered for the contests later in the week. Curtiss is preparing today to go after the $5000 prize offered for the best time over a &-mile course. POLICE CHIEF WON'T ALLOW PARADE FOR JACK JOHNSON CHICAGO,‘ July 6.—Fear of race riots in the downtown district of Chicago, when Jack Johnson, heavyweight cham- pion, comes home from Reno, has caused Chief of Police Steward to issue an order today. forbidding any formal celebration to welcome the conquering negro. “Because of the danger of trouble re- sulting from any formal demonstration,” said the chief of police, “I have refused the delegation that will meet Johnson &@ permit for a parade or a band.” Re- quest for a permit was made by City Collector Ernest Magerstadt.

Dewdrops on the Meadow Where the News Goat Grazes

LOS ANGELES, Cal., July 6.—Love- ly Miss Millicent Edwards, a_ heart breaker, is married. It was all as romantic as even Millicent could wish; a burro wag her fiery steed, a moun- tain dell the sanctuary, a country parson the clergyman, and Ernest E. Devere—hasn’t he a sweet name?— the bridegroom. For the happy Devere she jilted Everton Ardis, a San Francisco law- yer, Ardis had halted her elopement in an automobile with Gerald White, a young millionaire, by shooting White in the shoulder. By unanimous vote of all the men and against the earnest opposition of all the girls, Miss Millicent ‘was chosen queen of beauty of the fastival at Grand Rapids, Mich., in 1907. Gerald White fell in love with her; she kept him in suspense. Ardig fell fin love with her and she promised him hér pink and tapered hand. But young White, a Lochinvar in goggles and perfumed with gasoline, dashed in his motor car to the re- viewing stand, lightly tossed the queen of beauty into the car and whizzed away in pursuit of happi- ness. Ardis jumped in another motor and started in pursuit. “We heard a shot behind us,” said the bride today, “and Mr. White lurch- ed forward against the wheel. I was terribly frightened, but had presence of mind to pull out the switch plug. The car stopped, with Mr. Ardis right behind. I went back to the city with Mr. Ardis. Since then, strange to say, I have heard nothing of Mr. White. But I met Ernest.” Abernathy Boys Start to Oklahoma in an Auto. NEW YORK, July 6.—The Abernathy boys, who rode here from Oklahoma to greet Col. Roosevelt on his return, started for home today, but not on horseback. They are going in automo- biles.

Mr. Abernathy said he had a hard time fighting off the vaudeville agents, who had made offers of as much as $1000 a week for him and the boys to appear in some sort of an act. “I could not think of letting my boys go on the stage,’’. he said.

Why Does the Firefly Carry Its Lamp Astern? MANHATTAN, Kan., July 6—The aft lamp of the firefly, what lights it and why it is carried astern are problems which J. C. Hamilton, professor of phys- ics in the State Agricultural College here, is trying to solve. The firefly, Prof. Hamilton says, sur- passes anything Edison has done in the amount of light obtained .rom the en- ergy expended. The illumination, he says, is given off by a peculiar method of oxygenation of waste products which turns all energy into illumination and none into heat. Before the summer is over Prof. Hamilton hopes to have de- termined just what this method is. ‘‘Water Curtain’ to Check Fires in Theaters. WASHINGTON, July 6—More com- plete fire protection to theaters and es- pecially the 5 and 10 cent kind, is af- forded by a new regulation framed by Plumbing Inspector McGonegal, who has arranged so that every hall or thea- ter with movable scenery shall have a “water cirtain.” In case of a fire on the stage, by this water curtain device a complete cataract of water thrown downward with great force would stretch across the entire proscenium and prevent the fire from getting into the auditorium. ~ HOW TO FIND OUT. | Fill a bottle or common glass with urine and let it stand twenty-four hours; a sediment or settling usually ialianies an unhealthy condition of the kidneys.

FRIENDS OF WETS OF HURLING BOM The Rev. R. B. Fisher of Neoga, Ill., Will Keep On Fighting Liquor Interests.

By Long-Distance Telephone to the Post-Dispatch. NEOGA, ILL., July 6—Anti-prohibi- tionists are believed by the Rev. R. B. Fisher to have thrown a bomb which nearly wrecked the Presbyterian par- sonage here, and Marshal Munn shares the belief. Munn said today that he had suspects under surveillance, and that if confirmatory evidence was obtained arrests would be made in a day or two, The bomb Was a startling climax to a series of troubles which have beset Pastor Fisher since he came to Neoga nine months ago. He is being threat- ened with a libel sult on account of a too fervent prayer for the betterment f of Jacob Strohl, one of the wealthiest } members of his congregation. Early Morning Explosion, Phe bomb was thrown early Fourth of July morning, apparently from the street in front of the preacher’s home. lt was made of a steel tube, loaded with dynamite, and partly wrecked the porch of the cottage, shattering every window pane in the dwelling. Pastor Fisher and hig wife were uninjured. Members of the congregation advised them to leave the house with their two children, a girl 6 years old and a boy 8; but the Rev.’ Mr. Fisher said he would stick to his post. “The liquor and gambling element did it,” he told a Post-Dispatch reporter. “I’ve got them on the run, and I’m going to keep after them. They need. not think they can frighten me.” The differences between the Rey. Mr. Fisher and Jacob Strohl arose through a division of a country church near Neoga, where the minis- ter has been fillilng the pulpit Sun- day afternoons. This church was put up as a Union or People’s Church, but went into the Presbyterian fold before Pastor Fisher reached Neoga. Strohl was one of the objectors to this gtep. Member Did Not Like Prayer. “Both sides wanted me to help them,” the Rev. Mr. Fisher said, “but I declined to side with either faction, One evening Mr. Strohl came to my home, and we had a prayer meeting —just us two. I prayed that the Lord might relieve him if he were the ohurch, and he took offense at it. He tried to get several lawyers to bring a slander suit against me, but they refused because there were no witnesses.” SIMPLE FUNERAL SERVICES FOR CHIEF JUSTICE FULLER Body Will Be Sent to Chicagd for Interment After Rites at Bar Harbor.

For the second week of his engage- ment, Mr. Keenan will be presented in “The Girl of the Golden West,” play- ing the Jack Rance role that gave him his greatest fame.

BY WILLIAM P. McLOUGHLIN, A Special Correspondent of the Post-Dispatch. * RENO, Nev., July 6, ‘J AMES J. JEFFRIES, sad-faced and evidently suffering from an intense mental strain, motored in from his quarters at Moana Springs, last night, and took the train for Oakland, Cal., at, 6:30. He was accompanied by his wife, his brother Jack and Jack’s wife. : An@ alas, there was no rush to the Thomas Cafe to see him such as there was thmge days ago. The hold-over crowds no longer see in him a hero, or the “hope of the white race.” He. was just a plain, ordinary, everyday de feated pugilist with not a kindly nod or @ consoling phrase from any but those who saw the pathos, if pathos there can be in the licking of a fighter. Across the street, “Big Tim” Sullivan was con- versing with a group of CUhicago and Denver acquaintances. “There’s Jeff,”’ said a small boy who was selling souvenirs of the fiasco fight “Who cures?” said Ed Condon of Den- ver. “I can’t see him today; I couldn't see him yesterday.” And that’s the story in a iine, of a big, human punching machine who failed to pummel when the time was ripe, and who is today the most scoffed at fighter who ever lost a great prize ring contest. Curiously the lack of sympathy for a deféated man in a fair contest that is openly showed, in the case of Jeffries, has hardly a parallel in the history of the ring. It is the custom of fight fans to give the under dog the benefit of every doubt, but in the present situation there is hardly a kind word heard on any side for Jeffries or the showing he made in the contest with Johnson. Jeff Sore at Himeelf, Jeffries himself seerns to be at a loss to explain how he failed to give the public a semblance of a run for its money. He is still a nervous, grouchy man, sore at heart and gloomy beyo all description. He fidgets and fumes and says things that indicate the that.is within him and doesn’t seenr to be able to quite realize position he is in. When‘he doesallow himself to talk, he has no coherent or plausible explanation of -what happened to him in the ring. “I just went to pieces when I went into my corner,”’ he says. “I don’t know what caused it, but I couldn't pull my-

self together. I tried to shake myseif

up, but it was no use, During the fight I said to myself several times, “This is the chance, Jim,’ and I would try to land a crusher, but there was nothing back of the blow. I couldn’t get snap or steam to it. I had lost the connection between the heart and the muscle, al- though a few days before I felt I was fit for the fight of my life. ‘When Johnson hit me on the right eye, I was in bad. I saw three coons coming at me insteaa of one. My nerves all seemed to have stopped working and I felt it was all over.”’ This is all very well as far as it goes, but the main fact remains that Johnson showed me he was master from the start and that Jeffries never could have beaten him, whether or not his nerves were in order or his muscles working overtime. Jeff Didn’t Have a Fight Left in Him, Bob Armstrong Explains IM CORBETT tried to explain it as J stage fright. Sam Berger doped it to his Frisco friends as bad stomach and dysentery. Joe Choynski, who had been favoring Jeff, agreed that there had not been enough massaging. ,, Farmer Burns said Jim hadn't done. sufficient road work. But Bob Arm- strong, the old reliable, seemed to have the proper key to it when he said in his inimitablo way:. “It's no use a talking, sah, when a race horse hasn't a race in him he can’t win a race.” And thut’s what was the matter. Jeff. didm’t have a fight in him when he went into the ring. He was licked as soon as Johnson wrestled him around in the first session and. the negro showed that he had it on Jeff in the matter of strength. He wae licked when the big black man blocked aimost ever jab or poke or swing that Jeff made at him. to box with the clever he wes licked—well, from recall—he was licked before | He gloom- and kicked whenever visitors were hown at his camp. Twice he sent word that he would spar for the army of newspaper men here from all cor- of the earth, and twice he disap- potated them. He turned down the Govéfnor of the State on one occasion. -Governor was on the veranda of the cottage conversing with the big boxer when Jeff suddenly turned on his heel and went inside without saying “Good day” or “By—your leave” ana]: that’s what made the Johnson money come across at the last moment, pp Jecause he knew he wasn't right,” sid Bat Nelson today. proached that there was more at stake all over the world were betting on him,

NEW SPLIT OF THE PURSE SHOWS JEFFRIES’ DOUBTS BY W. P. McLOUGHLIN. RENO, July 6. AST night I learned that s Jeff had accepted on the day -before- the fight a cut of 60 and 40 per cent inthe purse instead of T75.and 26 which:‘he had first insisted on. He sold his sbare in the pic- tures for $50,000, while John- son reserved his rights. They each got an extra $10,000 from Rickard. This made Jeff’s share $117,000. Johnson got $123,000. Jack McAuliffe said when he heard this: “If Jeff knew he was going to win he would never stand for a 60 and 40 per cent division of the purse. He would never have sold his share in the pictures, either. That's a bet.” * And I fear it is a good wager, . too.

head under Johnson’s chin, the negro cried out: “Stop that, Jeff, or I'll uppercut you”’ and he did—even after his warning. And this was an exhibition of skil! by Johnson and density by Jeff that was displayed throughout the slow seance that finished with the triple knockout.

JEFF CERTAIN TO LOSE, CONAN DOYLE THOUGHT Copyright, 1910, by Press Pub. Co. (New York World.) LONDON, July 6.—Asked for his opinion of the Reno fight, Sir Ar- thur Conan Doyle said to the Post- Dispatch correspondent: “It is the old story of the young- er man winning. They always said in the old prize ring, ‘Youth will be served,’ and it is generally true. “A few ycars make all the differ- ence. It was very much as I ex- pected—a good fight, but Jeffries could not last against a younger man.”

Copyright, 1910, by Press Pub. eRe sat World.) ys LONDON, July 6.—Bugene Corri, the most noted referee in England, who refereed the Burns-Moir championship fight, said to the Post-Dispatch cor- respondent: “I thought Jeffries would win. I thought he was not an ordinary man at all, but an extraordinary man. I be- Heved he could come back even after etx years’ absence from the ring and win. His outward condition was per- fect, but there was something lacking in vitality—he had lost the necessary vim.”’ Asked if he thought it possible to find a man capable of boxing Jphnson, Corrt replied: “I believe it is. There is a man down at South-End-On-Sea, where 1 live, who has a great chance, in my opinion. His name is ‘Bombardier’ Wells. He was formerly in the army and has just returned from India. He was trained while out there by Ma- loney, an American, and beat every man he met. Wells has a longer reach than Johnson, stands 6 feet 8 inches, and for a heavyweight is wonderfully quick on his feet. He is 21 years of age. His Iast match was with Gunner MacMurray, whom he knocked out in half a round. His next match Is with Jint Maher of America. Packey McFar- land, who saw him beat MacMurray, said to me: ‘Mr. Corri, I wish we had him out in America. I believe we could train him to become the champion.” Age Tells Story, Says Britt. Jimmy Britt said: “The lesson of the fight is what I have always contended— that after the age of 380, with very few, if any, exceptions, no fighter can keep up his old fighting form, especially after retirement. In Jeff’s case, six years ago, when he retired, he was much superior to Johnson. The result only shows that Jeffries has gone back. like every other fighter who has re- turned to the ring. I do not think any- body can be put up against Johnson at the present time. The only man who might have a chance would be Sam Langford, who beat Hague at the Na- tional Sporting Club last year. Lang- ford, of course, is a much lighter man, very little heavier than a middleweight, and has already lost to Johnson, but has improved a lot since then. He is a wonderfully clever fighter.’’ f [Wild Wails I From Reno BY W. P. McLOUGHLIN, A Staff Correspoadent of the New York World and Post-Dispatch. RENO, Nev., July 6.—Yes, boys, Jeff came back, but he went away again.

I'll never forget that piteous face of Jeff as he sat in my corner after the bout was over trying in vain to figure what had happened. And I am told he was spitting blood all night. Once more Reno is becoming normal. The maximum limit in the gambling houses, which is the barometer of the number of visitors in town, is gradually lowering. Fight discussion is at @ low ebb and the divorcees are again coming into their own. Another day here and their reign will be supreme. Whenever one of Jeff's sparring part- ners or trainers appears on the street he is immediately surrounded by @ group of idle “‘hold-overs’’ who have been un- able to procure transportation out of town. They listen disinterestedly to the wise words of their entertainers, but pay no heed to the words of wisdom that are cast before them. They merely gather there because there is nothing else to do. The glitter and lure of the gambling dens has worn away and only the “regulars” who strive nightly to amass a. fortune at the wheel or crap table patronize the games. At one end of the main street Wilson Mizner holds court and in blatant tones tells what he thought, said and did about the big fight. He strikes atti- tudes and poses, grows eloquent and gestures and the small groups gape un- heedingly, like a flock of sheep. They're all wondering when they can procure ‘reservations out of town.” At the other end of the street philoso- phic Bob Armstrong discusses the sub- ject uppermost im his mind. Bob does a little posing himself, but his fiow of talk makes a hit with his auditors and they really listen to him. All day long trains have been pulling out of the station, not on time, and crowded to the roofs. rash = the cars are filled so that there even ng room the aisles, and as standing left gon napoli ie able thinning of the “moving popula- tion” and a corresponding drop fm the “minimum limit.” The Post-T

In this country it may remain the high water mark for all time as, long before a man can be developed to take the measure of the giant Ethiopian, the boxing game will probably have been given its quietus. Gov. Dickerson of Nevada, thinks that if more fight permits are asked out in his State he will support their issu- ance and not interfere as long as the fight game is permitted under the statutes, He says that he saw nothing in the Jeffries-Johnson fight to cause even the squeamisn to blanch; and that the benefit accruing to the State from holding the battle in Reno was a positive one. Not a Rowdy Crowd. NDEED,- the Governor and the State | of Nevada, as well as those who witnessed the fight are to be con- gratulated on the orderliness of the af- fair. Long before the battle was staged it was reported that Reno was filled with ‘‘stick-up men,” ‘“‘dips’’ and thieves; but almost no trouble resulted, thanks to the vigilance of the police. Before the fight it was freely stated that Johnson could not win without causing a riot at the ringside. But he did win and he was not even insulted, after the mill, but was accorded a cer- tain amount of praise, even though the big assemblage was discouraged over the downfall of the white champion. It was believed that the militia might be necessary to keep order, and indeed, had the affair occurred in San Fran- cisco, such might have been the case. But out in Nevada they have their own ideas of fair play and they don’t do the things that more conventional com- munities, with nose in the air where pugilism is concerned, sometimes are guilty of. England Feared Race War. ENO, for all its border atmosphere, K probably handled the fight as sanely and successfully as it was possible. In fact, over in England they ‘halt in amageo’’ over the fact that Johnson was permitted to leave the ring alive. One opinion of a prominent sport abroad is quoted as: thought that the whites would kill him if they saw he was about to win.” Which is handing a rather rough pack- “IT would have bet on Johnson, only I} United States is forced into line with the rest of the country and the game barred there, as elagwhere. And it will be many a day before the $270,000 cash receipts from tho last fight will be sur- passed. England might beat it if a world’s championship fight could take place there; but they won’t let it: Aus- tralia might beat the sum, were there only another white man as big in fight circles as was Jeffries. It is more than likely that never again will there be such a combination of circumstances to so arouse public interest ag existed in the late lamented affair. The last inning habit of the Cardinals is becoming annoying. Two games in one series have been lost by Roger’s men through the enemy’s late rallies. It is evident that the Mathewsons of the Cardinal] staff are still to be devel- oped. ae ee Suppressing Fight Information. HE fact that it was James J. Jef- 4 § fries and not Jonnson who insisted on the division of the purse 60 and 40 is enough to tell what the big fellow himself thought about the probable re- sult. It is only to be regretted that Jef- fries did not come out and insist on this a long time ago, so that the public’s hand might have been tipped to his little stand in the matter. This little incigent is the only ugly looking feature of the fight and that it occurred at all is probably due .to thoughtlessness on Jeff's part. Had the information been made public even two or three days before the contest there would have been no 2-to-1 odds on Jef- fries &4t any time. For it indicated ‘clearly that the supposed confidence of Jeffries in the result was built on sand. Deep down in his heart Jeff must have known what was coming off. Else never in the wide world would he have con- sented to a redivision of the $101,000, with a larger share going to the loser. Straws Show the Wind. N the light of recent events it appears that Jeff had a better hint of what was coming off than his words of confidence would indicate. The first note of something wrong came when Corbett set up the wail that Jeff just would not box. The next came when Mike Murphy, after watching Jeffries work, said that the big fellow was loafing and that he was not doing, enough exer-

age to the law and order conditions sup- posed to prevail in this, country. But Reno’s nice work in connection with the bout will not suffice to keep the fight law on its statute books much longer. -It's only a question of time un- til this unconventional corner of the |. cising to make an office man per- spire. Of cqurse, In ft all, there is no hint of anything like a fake; but it surely does seem that a truer idea of the white man’s actual condition could have been obtainable.

Willis four Reds HE bombardment of Victor the ninth inning, when t= scored three runs for the T = of into a 53 defeat for the Cardinals Tues- day. It was the second successive day the Reds rallied in the ninth period and pulled the game out of the fire. Willis was hit hard in the ninth. But his team got an unlucky break in the same inning when, with one out, Miller, who hed hit for Suggs and singled, was on third, and Downey raised to Zacher, playing center. Zacher made an average return to the plate. Roger got the ball a little to the right of the pan, only to drop it. Had he held on it is very probable he would have doubled Miller, who crossed with the tying run. In seven of the nine innings Willis pitched a fair game. He got as wild as the proverbial March hare in the second, when hits and passes let the Reds have two runs. Then he blanked the visitors un- til the ninth. George Suggs, a Detroit cast-off, whose record shows him as Griffith’s best pitcher, worked eight innings, retiring to enable Mil- ler to bat for him. Harry Gaspar pitched the ninth. Save for a single by Pinch- Hitter Lash, swinging for Willis, no dam- age was done. In the opener, with Bescher gone, Downey doubled to center, but Hoblitsell and Mitch- ell raised to HDvans, the comedian making & sensational running capture of Mike’s drive. Paskert opened the second with a single, and after McLean raised to Zacher, Dode swiped second. Then Egan walked. So did McMillan. With a packed house, Suggs hit & single te center, Paskert tallying the first run. Besocher forced McMillan, Mowrey un- assisted, Egan scoring. With Willis out of the way in the third, Huggins walked and Ellis beat out a bunt. After Zacher drove a long liner to Bescher, Koney With the bases filled, Ev- ans also got four wide ones, forcing Hug- gins home. That put it up to Roger, but the Duke's best was a foul pop to McLean. In the sixth the Cardinals tallied two, taking the lead, 3—2.- Koney got a scratch hit and Evans put a liner in right for a base. A passed ball enabled them to move up. Bresnahan'’s best was a raise to Besch- er, but Mowrey followed with s Texas leaguer to center, which scored Koney and With Willis going along fairly nice, & victory seemed on the way. For a starter fu the ninth, McMillan popped to Huggins. Then Ward Miller, batting for Suggs, siz- sled to left He promptly stole second. Bescher lined to left for a base, but Griff held Miller at‘ third. Bescher also pilfered second, Miller hugging his base. Downey followed with a raise to Zacher. As leted before, Roger might have defeat had he held to the & single by Hobiitsell that scored and a triple by Mitchell Utzell with Run &. ———————— made eight off Suggs and one off Gaspap

Puts Randall of New York Out of Central Tourney. ’ Just after the rain stopped, Secre- tary Ross of the Triple A paddled up to the clubhouse in his canoe and said that if it did not rain any more the courts would be dry enough to play on by 2:30 Wednesday afternoon, and he desired to have all the con- testants in the Central States tennis tournament, both in the singles and doubles on the ground and ready to play at that time. Play in the tournament has so far been very greatly hindered by the excessive rains, but even now the championship can be decided on Sat- urday afternoon, if the men will do all they can to assist Secretary Ross in running eff the matches swiftly and-smoothly for the next three days, and by being there on time and ready to play when their names are called. Undoubtedly the time-worn expres- sion, “quality and not quantity” ap- plies to the matches played on Tues- day afternoon. The surprise of the day was Sid.Overall’s decisive vic- tory over George Randall of New York. Randall came to this city with an alarming reputatiOn as a tennis player and he undouptedly did put up an excellent game; but he had prac- tically two experts to play against in the same game, as Overall continu- ally demonstrated the fact that he could play as well with one hand as he could with the other. Overall’s scores were 6—2, 6—2. In the only other match that was finished, Drummond Jones defeated J. H. Sheahan, 6—1, 6—2. Jones looked fresher than a daisy when he finished his match, and plainly shows what excellent condition he is in. In the match between A. H. Scrib- ner of Omaha and R. M. Hoerr, the former at one time had Hoerr 6 to 3 on the first set, but Roland M. came from behind and took the set 7 to 5. They will start at this point in their match this afternoon. It was neces- sary for Hoerr to learn that he could not play Scribner’s backhand and that he must give up playing close to the net before he could hope to win. The match between C. H. Peters of Chicago and Guy Oliver was very closely contested as far as it went. The sets were even up, Oliver taking the first, 6—4, and Peters the second, 6—3. They will finish the match from that point this afternoon. a. 7 | “Short Putts" The last year has certainly brought the younger school of golfers into pub- lie notice. Both the national and west- ern amateur championships are held by young men under twenty; the national, by R. A. Gardner of Hindsdale, and the western by “Chick” Evans of Edgewater.

Mike Moran of Dublin won the Irish open golf championship last week. In the same week the Welsh ladies’ cham- pionship was won by Miss Lioyd Rob- erts. In the second round of the Delafield cup tournament at Normandie on Mon- day, July 4, Walter Gilliam beat Walter Michener 6 up and 8 to play. Mr. Gil- liam now meets George Reynolds in the third round of this event. Quite a group of St. Louls golfers are preparing to go up to the Western Amateur champion tournament, which will be held at the Minnikahda club, Minneapolis, July 2% to 980. The qualifying round for the foursome tournament, to be played for the Sipple cups, will be he™ out at Normandie, next Saturday afternoon. D. B. Sawyer, of Wheaton, former western chamgpion, will captain the Western Golf Association team, which will compete for the Olympic cup July 23 at Minneapolis. Besides Sawyer, the executive committee has chosen for the team, Robert A. Gardner of Hinsdale, national champion; Charles Evans Jr., of Edgewater, western champion, and Albert Seckel of Riverside, inter-col- champion. Midlothian, Warren K. Wood, of Home- wood, Kenneth P. Edwards, pf Midloth- fan, and Gordan Copeland, of Stokie. H. Chandler Egan, former national champion, was not placed on the team, as he will not appear this year in the western tournament.

—* — to Prosper in the E ast SPO O’Connor Looks for Ray. ~

Also Believes He Has an Im- proved Brown Team.

DETROIT, July 6. The St. Louis Browns arrived here to settle a one-day quarrel with the Tigers. The Browns left Chicago late last night after trimming the White Sox, 6 to 5 in a 10-inning game. It was the seventh and last gamo of the long se- ries which ended with three won and four lost for the men who take orders Every man on the. Brown squad felt that his crew had it on the men of Jen- nings, which certainly is a fine spirit to possess when going into battle. As @ matter of fact today’s game was just an appetizer. Immediately after it is over the Browns will catch another train an: hike for Washington, to begin their second swing through the Eastern ter- ritory. The Senators will be. their first opponents, the initial game to be playcd Friday. Manager O’Connor does not look like a man who is leading a lost cause or a hopeless bunch of athletes. It is his opinion, his public one at any rate, that the Browns, Lave displayed much im- provement in their form and that they will ggirely make some of the Eastern teams step some to beat them. The fact that the Browns won three out of seven from the Sox may have had something to do with this attitude. But there is no special glory attached to trimming the Sox three in seven games and no reason why that should buoy a manager. O’Connor, said he had a stronger team than the one he went east with in the early spring. Killefer, will probably do the greater part of the catching. That is, unless Stephens shows a decided improvement. His throwing in the early games of the Chicago series was far from excellent. That may have been due to his injured hand. At any rate Killefer was sent back of the bat in all the later games and caught some excellent ball. Of the pitchers, the veterans seem to be doing better than the youngsters. rowell, and Pelty, displayed a whole lot more in Chicago, than any of the ether men on the Brown staff. _ Ray pitched a fair game, but nothing to brag of. Still, O’Connor figures that

EX-BROWN PITCHER STRIKES OUT 17 IN O3-INNING CONTEST SAN ANTONIO, Tex., July 6— +-aco and San Antonio of the Texas League played through four and é6ne-half hours, for 2 innings, - yesterday afternoon, to. a tie—l tol —a record for the |! e and one of the longest games ever played in the South. Ables of San Antonio, formerly of the Browns and Naps, and Loudell of Waco were the opposing pitchers, the former striking out 17 and allowing 16 hits, while Lou- dell struck out ll and allowed 16 hits.

’ with him‘in Washington, if he does not noon. O'Connor also thinks that his infield is going a whole lot better.than it has at any time this season. That infield showed great in Chicago, with the ex- ception of one day. Truesdale certain- ly had a bad day on the Fourth of July. Newnam looked a whale all during the series. The only possible fault that could be found with him was that he was a bit careless in taking thrown them. Of course, that would be ruin- ous if carried to excess. to wielding the war club he was pres- ent with bells on. | fm the Athletics, the leaders ff the race. Manager O’Connor has an idea Connie Mack's men. The next jump will be to Gotham, and the Eastern se- ries will wind up in Boston. Before returning home the Browns will play the Naps at Cleveland, so that the St. Louis fans who follow the for- Browns meet in St. Louis.

QUERIES AND oe ANSWERS. i. B.—Owner Charles W. Murphy ot the Chicago club‘is Irish. His father's name was Pat Murphy and his mother’s Bridget. They are members of the Catholic church in Wilmington, O. Chicago.—St. Louis club owners refuse to give official attendance figures. S.—Dmpire has right to call player out. Bill Birshir.—John L. Sullivan won from Jake Kilrain. Kelly.—Jeffries is an American. J. A. X.—The Cincinnati Red Stock- ings went through the 1869 season with- out losing a game. J. K.—No record of Corbett knocking out Jeffries in training camp. Horse Shoe Fiend.—There are no rules governing horse shoe matches. The contestants usually agree on point scor- ing before play. Ringer over ringer counts 10 points usually, for tne player making last throw; a leaner over a ringer counts eight for the player mak- ing ringer, although vice versa is some- times the case; ringer under ringer is scored the same way. —__¢@—_.-—__..
