BELLE FLMORE’S DYING SCREANS HEARD AT MGT Woman Shopkeeper Tells of Sounds That Came From ' Dr. Crippen’s Home. BEGGED FOR MERCY Incident Occurred About the Time Actress Disappeared Last February. SEARCH FOR HUSBAND . Vessels Bound for America Will Be Watched by New York Detectives. By Associated Press. LONDON, July 14.—The first story of what may have been tHe actual com- mitting of the crime was told today by a neighbor of Dr. Hawley H. Crip- pen, in the cellar of whose home was unearthed the body believed by the po- lice to be that of the physician’s wife, who was known on the stage as Belle Elmore. Since the discovéry of the body and the disappearance of Dr. Crippen and his typist, Miss Ethel Clara Leneve, Scot- land Yard detectives have inquired dill- gently among those living in the vicin- ity of the Crippen home in Hiilldrop crescent, North London, for some infor- mation that would throw light on the domestic habits and relations of the American doctor and his actress wife. Nothing helpful was learned until today when the proprietress of a small shop at the rear of the Crip- pen residence told of hearing a wom- an’s screams and pleas for meroy coming seemingly from the cellar in which the burned and mutilated body was later found. eard Screams at Night. Mrs. Crippen disappeared last February. It was four or five months ago when the screams were hearéd, the woman said. Her shop overlo¢ks a Mttle garden back of the Crippen ‘heme. To the police the shopkeeper seid: “IT had often heard revolver prac- tice in the garden. One night about four or five months ago, I cannot place the time more exactly, I was awakened by a woman’s cries. It was midnight. The screams appeared to come from Dr. Crippen’s house. I listened and heard a woman's voice pleading: ‘Don’t, oh don’t!’ “To me it seemed that the cries were from a woman in the basement of the house occupied by Dr. and Mrs. Crippen. As nothing developed further, I soon forgot the occurrence and did not recall It until yesterday, when I learned of the tragic discovery.” The Music Halt Artists’ Guild issued an official statement today declaring that all of the books and accounts of Mrs. Crippen, who was treasurer of the guild, were found to be in perfect order. Revolver Found in Cellar. The finding in the cellar of a re- ‘ volver gave rise this afternoon to the report that the vaudeville artist had been shot before the body was bat- tered into an unrecognizable mass and buried. It also was reported that traces of poisog had been found by the doctors, who will present their theories as to the ‘eause of death at an inquest to- m w. Toward the end of last February Dr. Or¥ppen, accompanied by Miss Leneve, whom he introduced as his wife, at- tended a ball given by vaudeville art- igts. The pretty typist wore a sealskin Goat and jewelry, which was recog- nized as the former property of Belle _Elmore. Her death must have occurred ‘immediately before the ball, at which Dr. Crippen and his typist were among the merriest of the dancers. Wife Objected to Stenographer. Miss Leneve has been in Dr. Crip- pen’s employ for about ten years, and when the subject of the woman's dis- charge was made an issue last Jan- uary, it is known that Dr. Crippen re- . fused to grant his wife’s demand. The dentist made the statement a month ago that he had married Miss Leneve, who lived in the same house with him, but in the rbsence %f documentary proofs, friends of Belle Elmore and Dr. Crippen declined to accept the state- ment.

Dr. Pepper, @ London criminologist. who has as- sisted the police in solving former crimes, has made a careful examination of the body and its searching for traces of poison. Because of the fact that th» head is disfigured, proof that would at present be accepted by the law that the body is that of Belle Elmore is not available. However, Scotland Yard ac- cepts it as a fact that the remains are those of Belie Elmore. Body Was Dissected. Although no official examination has been made, it is learned on excelleit authority that Dr. Pepper's examination

DOG TO BE ASKED TO DECIDE HIS OWNERSHIP WHEN RIVAL CLAIMANTS APPEAR IN COURT Man and Woman Will Each Call ‘Here, Tige!’’ and the Ani- mal Will Do the Rest. Poetic Justice Werremeyer of Clayton may lay claim to being another Solo- mon come to judgment in view of the novel expedient he has chosen to de- cide the ownership of an 8-months-old bull pup. Justice W'erremeyer will not frighten the claimants by threatening to cut the pup into halves. He thinks he has hit upon a solution even simpler than that. Bach of the claimants will be re- quired to say ‘“‘Here, Tige! Here, Tige!”’ in the most :seductive voice possible. And the decision of the suit will be left to Tige. The pup is claimed by Mrs. Louis C. Martin of 8709 Windsor place. She got an attachment for it Thursday, after having seen it in Percy L. Horsfall’s stable, 319 Church avenue, Webster Groves. Mrs. Martin says the dog disappeared from her home four months ago. She left the city later and upon her return was informed that the dog was in Hors- fall's possession. He formerly lived at 8719A Windsor place. Mrs. Martin says Mrs. Horsfall showed her the dog Thursday, chained to @ manger. Mrs. Martin says she will bring chil- dren from her neighborhood to testify that Tige belongs to her. “DROP IN AND SEE US," SAID. NEIGHBOR; MRS, HIRSCH DID She Tumbled Through Skylight While Trying to Get Her Handkerhief. “Drop in and: see us any time,” said her next door neighbor to Mrs. Anna Hirsch, 22 years old, of 1841 South Broadway. And Mrs. Hirsch did. 8ne dropped in through the skylight while her neign- bos’s family was at supper Thursday. The neighbors were §o surprised that they did not ask her to sit down, and ghe was too busy getting bits of glass ut of her dress to think of all the 1 aiathiinn of a call. She was consid- erably cut up, in fact, by the manner of her reception, and she went to the city hospital suffering from lacerations of both her face and her feelings, but none of her injuries was serious. Mrs. Hirsch explained, after she got to the hospital, that she dropped a handkerchief from her third story win- dow to the roof of the two-story house next door, and that, in trying to get it,” she made a misstep and went through the skylight.

UZZFLL DENIES HE ACCEPTED MONEY ~ FROM GAMBLERS Granite City Mayor Declares on Stand That He Re- fused All Offers.

ADMITS PROPOSALS Often Besought, He Says, for Permission to Start Slot Machines. DIDN’T KNOW OF GAMES

Testifies He Thought Idea Was Abandoned When He Declined Offers.

Mayor Charles A. Uzzell, accused by Granite City gamblers and Chief of Po- lice Gottselig of accepting money to per- mit gambling, testified in his own be- half Friday at his trial on a charge of malfeasance. He admitted that mem- bers of the “‘Big Six’’ had made vari- ous proposals to him for gambling priv- lleges, but that he had refused to agroc to any of them, and had not accepted money from any. “T have always tried to do my duty ar Mayor,’’ Uzzell declared to Judge Hadley and the jury, “and my salary of $75 a month has been all I have got out of it.”’ The hearing of evidence closed at 1:30 p. m., after a crosg-examination in which the Mayor stuck to his denial of the accusations, and arguments began, with a prospect that the case would go to the jury before night. Chief Gottselig and Fred Fuger, “slot machine king’’ of Granite City, testified Thursday that the Mayor regularly re- ceived one-eighth of the total earnings of slot machines run by his permission, | an equa) share, said it averaged $40 a week for two months. Knew of Gambling. Uzzell, on the witness stand Friday, said that his first knowledge of gam- bling in Alton came May 16 last, when members of the local Board of Improve- ments, at a meeting of the board, asked him why slot machines were permitted. It was after this, he said, that he gave; Gottselig the orders on which the ma- chines and gambling games..were stopped. He admitted that Policeman Rowden had told him May 1 that slet machines were running in Hungry Hollow, as 4 portion of Granite City is called, He said he called up the Chief at that time to tell him to stop the gambling, but that the Chief was out, and did not call him up when he returned. “T had a badly ‘ulcerated tooth last spring,” he said, ‘and for that reason I didn’t get out as much as I would otherwise have done.”’ Uzzell told of repeated conversations with gamblers, who made various. pro- posals. He seemed to have thought, from his testimony, that his refusal ended the matter, and not to have sus-

OFFERS AN AFFIDAVIT “What We Did to Your Bishop Was Plenty,” Hoss Said of Hendrix.’

TOLD OF LEGAL SUIT

Said Fight Between Trustees and Bishop Would be Carried to Court. R. F. Chew of Kirkwood, an alum- nus of Vanderbilt University, inti- mately familiar with the controversy over the control of that institution between the Board of Trustees and the Board of Bishops, was the volun- tary representative of the Post-Dis- patch in obtaining an interview at the Union Station with Bishop E. E. Hoss. In this interview Bishop Hoss said the controversy would result in a suit at law, and that Bishop Eugene R. Hendrix of Kansas City had with- drawn from the Board of Bishops during a dis- cussion of the matter. Bishop Hoss has denied that he gave an interview to the press, but Kas not denied any of the statements attributed to him. Mr. Chew, in ex- plaining to a Post-Dispatch reporter the circumstances under which he obtained the interview, said: Wrete to Bishop Hendrix. “IT had written to Bishop Hendrix to learn his side of the ease, and he had replied that the action of the: trustees in rejecting the three members elected at the General Conference in Ashville was ‘with a view to a friendly suit to sée whether the bishops had any authority over the board. I also bad written to Chancellor Kirkland, and had received a reply from him. . . “When I saw Bishop Hoss in the Midway at the Union Station YF aia not recognize him for a moment, be- cause he had shaved off his beard. When I was sure it was he I walked up and asked him what the bishops had done at Nashville about the uni- versity. | + “*Well,’ he replied, ‘what we did to your Bishop Hendrix was plenty.’ “The Rev. Theodore Copeland of St. Paul’s Church was with Bishop Hoss and heard this, as well as Bishop Hoss’ story of how Bishop Wilson lectured Bishop Hendrix and virtually called him an enemy to the Board of Bishops, so that Bishop Hendrix withdrew from the meeting. Mr. Copeland then walked off to a cigar stand and I do not think he heard the remainder of the conver- sation. “Knowing the widespread interest in the controversy, and its: importance, I concluded after the talk to give the Post-Dispatch those parts of it-to which, in my opinion, the public was fully en- titled. “Bishop Hoss talked to me as an alumnus of the university, and he told mé some things which I did not deem it advisable to make public. But he did not put upon me any obligation of secrecy, and I would have been at lib-

Dummy on Clayton Public Square Scares Watchman Out of Town.

Jerre Curtis, negro night watchman of the Clayton courthouse, is missing: He telephoned to Constable Bode at 1a. m. that the body of a dead woman was on the lawn of the public square. “Somebody cut the woman's head off with an ax,’” the negro said in great excitement. Constable Bode lost no time in going to the courthouse. He looked for the negro, but could not find him. He then began a search for the body. Presently the constable discovered a dark object on the corner of the court- house yard.. He approached cautiously, and sure enough, found a headless ob- ject on the grass. He touched the hem of a dress, an&é found from its texture that it was fine silk. ‘Must have been some very woman,”” he mused to himself. The patent leather shoes on the feet seemed to confirm his suspicions. Te looked for the bloody ax, but could not see it. In fact he could see no blood at all. The Constable then took hold of what he believed to be the body of a woman and discovered that it was nothing more than a dummy used for a clothes model.

CAULFIELD OK'S PICTURE IN NUDE ON BARROOM WALL Refuses Councilmen’s ‘Re- quest to Order It Removed. Councilman Schneiderhahn, who is strong on ‘“‘art’’ censorship, and who also believes that the movement should begin at home, has failed in his effort to get a painting officially turned to the wall in a caloon opposite the city ha'l. He made the request to Excise Com- missioner Caulfield, which that oficial has denied. Councijman Schutz who also denied the picture a proper object of censorship appealed to the owner to pmove it. It is still there. ® picture hangs in the’ saloon of "Emil Herschenroeder. Its dimensions are 18x12 inches, and it depicts a sym- metric figure basking in the light of a grate fire.

Council- man Schneiderhahn, according to the Exciseman, complained particularly of the stockings. These contrast strikingly with the flesh coloring of the rest of the picture, and were declared improper by Schnei- derhahn. Counciiman Schneiderhahn told the Excise Commissioner that Councilman Schutz also objected to the picture: that he had warned a former owner of the place that the picture wag objec- tienable to him, and that it would have |

GRLSASIUDEES SEND FATHER TO THE WORKHOUSE Daughters Decide He Shall Serve Out $10 Fine for Beating Them.

Misses Henrietta and Mina Washer, 17 and 16 years old, were their father’s judges in the Wyoming street police court Friday. Judge Kleiber had fined Carl Washer $10 for mistreating his daughters. He left it to them whether the fine should be stayed or their father sent to the Workhouse. Their wish was thet he be sent to the Workhouse. Washer and his daughters reside at 263 Warren, street. Mrs. Washer has been dead four years. Tuesday he was before Judge Pollard in the Dayton street police court. Pollard released him with a warning. Wednesday he went home at 2 o’clock and found the girls preparing to go out. He says no dinner had been prepared for him. He struck them and thrust them inte «a room and locked the door. A neighbor called Policeman Shea. At his direction they. broke out of the room. Washer was arrested. He took a change of venue from Pollard’s court to Wyoming street. Washer told Judge Kleiber the giris had been, staying away from home late at night. He wanted them to come in at 9 o'clock. Kleiber said it was all right for them to stay out until 10 o’clock but they should sot stay away from home later than that. The girls said they had to decide as they did because he had been mistreat- ing them ever since their mother died. Last Tuesday Judge Kleitber fined Charies L. Justus of 197 Cherokee street $10 for disturbing his wife and Gaughters and ruled that girls have a right to sit on the front porch with young men after 11 o'clock at night. In that case the fine was remitted at the request of the wife. ANTHONY DREXEL'S SON FLIES WITH FRENCHMAN OVER SEA Philadelphian and Leon Morane Engage in Exhibitions at Bournemouth, England.

Gardner, caught napping, admitted he was not entitled to commissions on $450,000 of stock sales, on which purchasers were allowed commis- sions. This ig more than half of the total sales, $803,000, upon which, in affidavit in Judge Withrow’s court, Gardner laid claim to $192,000 in com- missions, under a %-per-cent con- tract. Eliminating the $40,000 of sales, Gardner’s commissions under contract would be cut to $84,720.

One of: the’ men. named was Goodman King. . a “I was concerned in no such scheme,” said Mr. King to a Post-Dispatch re- porter Friday. “I know nothing of any syndicate of thig nature: « “I was a frignd of the late Judge Frank M. Este& and he persuaded mé to subscribe for small amounts of stock in’ several insurance companies which were being formed about the time of the organization of the Continental and International Fire companies. Subscribed to Small Amounts, ‘? thought these companies would be a good thing for St. Louis, as they would divert to this city some of the millions of dollars going to the in- surance corporations of the East. I subscribed small amounts—$200 or $500. “I ‘have no recollection of sub- scribing for any shares in the Con- tinental and International companies. I did invest to a small extent in the Royal Casualty Co. and the Certral States Life Insurance Co.” Judge Estes was one of Gardner’s as- sociates in incorporating the Continental and International companies, and drew up the articles of incorporation. The sensation of Thursday’s session was the charges which Gardner lodged against his former associate, Congress- man Harry M, Coudrey. The witness identified a letter writ- ten by himself to W. Speed Stephens, cashier of the Central National Bank at Boonville, Mo., in which Coudrey was accused of taking $20,000 in notes and securities from the offices of the company, of turning in $26,000 in checks which were not honored, and with pocketing the proceeds of sales of stock which he made, Gardner admitted that a week after he is alleged to have paid Coudrey $21,450 to get out of the companies and to resign his contract for selling stock, a secret contract with the politician was in force on which he afterward collect- ed $8000 in commissions unknown to the other officers. Gardner also admitted that seven days after Coudrey had sold the presidency in the companies the witness wrote him a letter in which he stated he was willing for the Congress- man to be retained as vice-president. At a former hearing, Gardner said he was chosen as “armor-bearer” by the Millers to get rid of Coudrey for good, Office Boy as Informant, The latter allegations were elicited through two letters which were intro- duced In evidence, one from Coudrey to Gardner, 3 gm at @ secret agreement to retain thé politician as vice-president, and Gardner’s reply. low; The letters fol- ) Nov, 22, 1909, Harry B.

If you don’t live up to your agree- ment, I shall take the matter up with the directors and stockholdtrs. I want you to live up to your agree- ment, and I will do the same.

Attorney Leahy also sought, but in vain, to have admitted in evidence a letter written to Gardner by Charles L. Shaw, one of his agents. The con- cluding paragraph caused Referee Caul- field to smile broadly when he read it during an intermission. It ran: Send me a good strong ‘“boost’’ letter and say in it that you are .Selling over 1000 shares a day and that it won’t be long until the stock advances again. Also write me sep- arate letter and tell me the truth about how eyerything is, ~~ COUDREY DENIES HE WAS PAID TO QUIT COMPANIES In Telegram to the Post-Dispatch He Declares Gardner Lies. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch, WASHINGTON, July 15.—If Gardner testified at the St. Louis receivership proceedings that I ever abstracted any valuable papers from the companies, he lied, and if he stated that I ever made any remittances to the companies that were not genuine, he lied again. Any subscriptions that I took he was aware of and I can prove this by his own handwriting. I informed Mr. Thompson in Carthage last August, at the time he agreed to accept the treas- urership of the companies, and others, that on account of my official and other business connections I could not continue as president of the companies and that there was no office in the gift of the companies that I wanted. } It was Gardner himself who made the proposition voluntarily to me that I should accept the vice-presidency of the companies. There was a witness pres- ent to this. If Gardner said I was paid $21,000 or $25,000 to resign as president of the com- panies, he again lied. No director ever approached me and asked me to resign as president of the companies. I told several persons interested that I wanted to be relieved of the duties of the presidency in December. | I think Gardner is a fit. subject for a lunatic asylum. His statements do not worry anyone who knows him. HARRY M. COUDREY.

jGranite City Magor } WITH A BULLE Dying Man Says Mrs. Klar Had Agreed It Was Best Both Should Die. Johann Weig! is expected to fulfill his part of the covenant of death into which he says he entered with Mrs. Johnna Klar just before he shot her and him- self. , City hospital surgeons found Friday that the bullet fired by Weigl into his right temple had destroyed the sight of both eyes. Death, they said. would soon intervene to save him from a life of blindness, Mrs. Klar, wounded in the left cheek beneath the eye, has perhaps an even chance for recovery. But her comeli- ness, which made three men successive- ly her husband’s rivals, has been de- stroyed. | Remorse overtook Weigl and Mrs. Klar when the woman’s husband, Frank Kiar, left St. Louis after having 4is-) covered their fondness for each other. He told them, before leaving the house at 3447 South Second street Thursday, that he was going to Germany and would not be in their way any longer. Weigl decided that it would be best for him and Mrs, Klar to leave St. Louis. He drew from a bank Thursday afternoon $800, savings which he had brought to this country from Hungary. In the evening he called at Mrs. Kiar’s house, where he used to be a boarder, end invited her to take a walk. At Becond and Potomac streets, where there is a vacant lot, they stopped and talked of the future He urged her to leave St. Louis with him, and é¢old her of his $800, which, with her savings, would make more than $1000. With this they could start life elsewhere, where they were not known. : “You go with me, or I wrt! kill both of us,” Welgl said, showing her re- volver. ‘That would be best,”” the woman re- plied, according to Weigl. A moment later the watchman in a nearby factory heard two shots. He did not. go tothe spot at once but, passing the corner later, he heard the groans of the man. The woman, though dreadfully wounded, had arisen and walked to her house. Both reached the hospital at about the same time and both were con- scious. The man told policemen his story of the death agreement. The woman denied that she had consent- ed to die and said she was kneeling before him, begging him not to fire, when he shot her. GIRL SHOT BY BOY PLAYMA AND BULLET LODGES IN BRAIN Chlid Expected to Die Froni Wound From Revolver Found in a Shed. - Viola Smukowski, six years old, was shot in the face by a boy playmate at 11:30 a. m. Friday in a shed in the rear of 8434 Laclede avenue, in which they had found an old revolver. The bullet entered her brain, and physicians at the City Hospital say she probably will die. An emergency oper- ation was performed. The girl’s par- ents are Frank and Clara Smukowski. The boy, Cecil Ferguson, 14 years old, was arrested a year ago in Ma- plewood, according to Capt. Hick- man of the Laclede Avenue District, for having a revolver and a rifle in his possession. He and a companion were on their way west to fight Indians, they explained. 600 PHEASANTS SENT OUT TO BE LIBERATED IN THE STATE Young Birds Shipped by Warden in Effort to Stock State With Game. JEFFERSON CITY, July 15.—Jesse A. Tolerton, State Game Warden, today shipped out the first’ consignment of young pheasants to be liberated on farms throughout the State. Thers were 600 in the shipment, and near'ty every section of the State will receive a few. They were as large as partridges and almost as active. The persons who get the pheasants promise to protect them until they have a chance to propagate. There aro about nine thousand smaller ones hatched out. Sixty of the old birds were liberated also.

He asked me to come into his saloon, and I fsund Gottselig there. Then he made a prop- osition. “Let us start the slot machines.’” he sald, “and I will split my half of the morey three ways,"’ ““No,’ I said, ‘I can’t permit any- thing of that sort. The people of Gran- ite City wouldn’t stand for it.’ We did not come to any understanding such as Fuger and Gottseltg have told of, at that meeting, or at any other time. “Harry Briker and J. C. Britain also talked to me about the same matter. Briker said: ‘It wouldn't do to start the machines in the central part of Granite City, or someone might squawk, but anything will go in Hungry Hollow. We've got it all fixed with the couaty officers, and we won't be interfered with.’ I told him I would,not allow slot machines in any part of town.” Threatened Local Option, He said that Britain interceded with him in behalf of Fuger, asking that Fuger be allowed to “open up.” There were several of these conversa- tions, but he always refused the re- quests, he said. “I told these men,” said the May- or, “that if gambling were allowed in the saloons, the next thing we would see would be a successful local op- tion movement, and that the saloon’ men would better be satisfied with what they had. “After Alderman Maserang told me May 16 last that slot machines were running in Hungry Hollow, I met Gottselig and said “You must stop all this. Don’t you know we can’t have such conditions existing in Granite City? The police committee of the Council called a meeting, and asked the Chiet and me to attend,-and I said I would be there, but I was notified to go to Alton that evening and receive a Masonic degree, so I told the committee to go ahead and take whatever steps they thought best, and I would approve.” At Outs With Gottselig. He denied having met Briker, Fuger and Gottselig in his (Uzzell’s) drug store on the night of May 16 last, and intro- duced J. H. Jennings of the Corn Prod- ucts Refining Co. to testify that he was with Uzzell in the store that night, walked home with him and left him about midnight, and that he did not see him in conference with the men named. “Chief Gottselig and I have been at outs for a year,” the Mayor said, by way of explaining Gottselig’s testimony against him. “He wanted to let gam- bling games run, I tried to head them off. Two. policemen complained of the way Gottselig treated them, and I told him if he didn’t handle the force better TI would take hold of it myself. He re- sented this, and resented my direct or- ders to Policemar’ Hunt, in 1909, to re- running in various places. During 1910 I left the management of the police to the Chief.” SANTA CLAUS IN MIDSUMMER WACO, Tex., July 15.—H. K. McHarg of Stamford, Conn., who recently sold his holdings in the Texas Central Raill- road, has notified the present manage- ment that he wifl give a year’s salary to all employes who had been in the service of the road for 2 years.

WASHINGTON, July 15.—President Taft has granted a pardon to take ef- fect July 17, the date his term would expire, to the Rev. James R. Kaye, who is now serving a term of six months in the Peoria House of Correction for making molds of silver coin. Kaye has filled pulpits in Presby- terlan churches at Lincoln and Wheat- on, Ill., and while at the former place, to increase his Sunday School attend- ance, he conceived the idea of offering medais to the children. In experiment- ing with a view of making the médals, he made plaster molds, using coins as a model. The experiment was unsuc- cessful and the molds were thrown away. Subsequently they were found and Kaye was arrested for violating | the law. He was twice tried, the first

time being sentenced to two years, This ‘ew reduced to six months at a second rial. NEW BILL TO SET SIX MONTHS AS LIMIT IN COLD STORAGE Strong Regulations Will Be In- troduced During the Next. Congress. WASHINGTON, July 15.—A _ strong measure for the ‘regulation of cold storage business will be introduced dur- ing the next Copgress. The first step will be a bill préviding that no product shall be képt in a cold storage ware- house in any. territory longer than six months. The legislation will be supplementary to the pure food law. It is possfble for the Agricultural Department under the provisions of this law, to condemn any food in cold storage which is perilous to health. But Dr. Wiley, chief chemist, says the authority of the Government

is not sufficient to protect people from } the cold storage evils.

THE 10 STARVE WM. P. PITTMAN American Kept in Jail for Ten Days Without Food Being Supplied to Him. PROTEST BY CONSUL President Madriz Makes More Promises of Better Treat- ment for Prisoner. By Wire From the Weaakingten Ba- rean of the Post-Diapatch. WASHINGTON, July 15.—Assurances that the Government of Nicaragua would treat William P. Pittman with consideration and provide for his wants and comforts were renewed to United States Consul Olivares in Managua to- day. The American official discovered his fellow countryman starving in a cell in the overcrowded city prison here. Pitt- man, whose relatives live at Cambridge, Mass., told Consul Olivares that he left Greytown July 4; that since then his captors have failed to’ provide food, leaving him dependent for subsistence upon charity. More Promises Madc. Olivares immediately protested, re- minding Madriz of his promise to treat Pittman with consideration. Madriz finally agreed to transfer Pittman to a large and cleaner cell and to allow the Consul to supply a sieeping couch and food. The Consul reported that no definite action regarding Pittman had been determined by the de facto au- thorities and. that he (Olivares) will exert every effort to insure fairness and humane treatment for Pittman. When the United States originally learned of Pittman’s arrest, President Madriz assured Olivares tha: the pris- oner would be treated fairly and con- siderately. Pittman was arrested after he had been enzaged in placing mines in the harbor at Bluefields for the in- surgent forces. Consul Olivares has cabled to the State Departinent thet the anti-Aineri- can feeling in the western part of Nica- ragua, the section under contro] of the Madriz faction, is dallye growing more bitter. Mr. Olivares has made vigorous protestation ‘to Madriz and has reiter- ated to him Secretary Knox’s warning that this Government will hold the Madriz faction strictly: accountable for the security of American life and prop- erty. CHIEF YOUNG GETS ALARM CLOCK THROUGH MAILS: IS PUZZLED BY AMBIGUOUS HINT Does It Mean He Needs Awaken- ing or That Department Runs Like Clockwork? Chief of Police Young does not know whether to feel complimented or not by the receipt in Friday's mail of a pocket clock. The person who sent it may have intended to indi- oate that the department was running like clockwork; but on the other hand, the fact that it is an alarm Glock suggests that the sender might have thought somebody in the de- partment needed -awakening. The alarm went off immediately after the clock was unwrapped. Speculation was not assisted by reading the note which accompanied the clock. The note told the “poleese cheef” that the clock was “not like the gold clock that the officer had mede statements about.” Then, gubtiy changing the gubject, the writer continued, “There is no thieves on my block, Jefferson and Franklin, then what is the use of putting the game officer on this block?” The mention of a gold clock is be- lieved to have reference to the police relief fund inquiry, in which it was rumored a police officer accepted such a gift. Chief Young has his choice between throwing the clock on the scrap heap and asking the board's permission to accept it asa gift. The _ same point has been ratsed in regard "to the paper of needles sent to Chief of Detectives Smith a few days ago. MOTOR AT $4 PER HOUR.

The con- heise “erouth and partial failure of crops is responsible for the outflow.

Belle Elmore’s body ay Dissected Betore Burial

Continued from Page 1.

There were found with the remains strands of fair hair and what looked like a plece of clothing. It is a matter of conjecture whether the missing bones will be found, but the police search will be continued with a view to their dis- covery. The murderer’s intent for destruction by quicklime hes been frustrated some- what by the nature of the soil in the cellar, composed of clay which prevented air and moisture from reaching <he lime, thus retarding its destructive action. those of a woman and that the l»ngth of limb corresponds to measuremeats of Belle Elmore. The stoma-h has been re- moved to the laboratories of the Home Office and preliminary analysis is said to have shown traces of poison. Dr. Crippen rented an office on the first floor of Craven House, King’s way, where he carried on a business under the name of the aural Remedies Co. He had not been seen at the office for near- ly a year, howcver, a woman calling for the mail. But yesterday the hall porter says he saw a man answering Dr. Crip- pen’s description, who hurried into the office and departed within 2. few min- utes, disappearing in the street crowd. The ‘porter discovered later that the sign, ““‘H. H. Crippen, M. D., U. 8. A.,” had been removed from the office door. Dr. Crippen was last seen about noon Saturday, when he hoodwinked the po- lice in spite of the fact that their sus- picions might be supposed to have placed them on their guaré. He told a plausible story of his wife’s death in San Francisco, whither she had eloped. Net until he failed to produce a mor- tuary urn containing ashes did Dr. Crippen admit to the detectives that the story of his wife’s death and cre- mation was untrue. He had stated previously that he received the urn from California. When challenged by the detectives, he said he concocted the cre- mation story because he did not want the neighbors to know he had quar- reled with his wife. Following the confessien of falsehood, Crippen. took the officers all over his house and even into the cellar, where the body was found later. Three de- tectives were assigned to ‘“shadow’”’ Crippen, but they let him slip threugh their fingers. They are generally cen- sured, but excuse themselves on the ground that they could not arrest him because they had no charge on which they could hold him on suspicion. May Still Be in London, Although the search for Dr. Crippen points most strongly to New York bouhd steamers, his photographs were supplied today to London newspapers in the hope that he will be recognized and his presence made known if he is

Dr. Pepper states that the remal.s are. still in London. On the theory that Miss \Leneve may be with him, the New York authorities have been asked te watch for her, too. Scotland Yard believes it probable she may be dressed in male at- tire because Dr. Crippen purchased a suit of boy’s clothing before his dis- appearance. Dr. Crippen’s business activities here are indicated by several offices which he rented, including dental chambers in New Oxford street occupied jointly with another American, G. M. Rylance. Rylance denies that he was in part- nership with Crippen or knows any- thing concerning the latter’s private affairs. The two had used the same offices for the past eighteen months. Belle Elmore was honorary treasury of the Music Hall Ladies’ Guild, an as- sociation which gave assistance to needy vaudeville players. A letter purporting to haye been written by Belle Elmore resigning her office is now believed to be a forgery, because the surname is spelled with two ‘1s.”” whereas Belle Elmore invariably wrote the name with one ‘‘l.”’ At the time Dr. Crippen published notices in the newspapers of his wife's death, friends of the woman called to make inquiries and although not entirely satisfied with Dr. Crippen’s account, it did not raise active suspicions in their minds.

The Cedric also sailed from Liv- erpool Saturday, the St. Paul sailed from Southampton and the Minnetonka from London. --—--- @- --—-~< FATHER AND SON HAVE NOT OFTEN HEARD FROM CRIPPEN LOS ANGELES, Cal., July 15.—Haw- ley O. Crippen, son of Dr. H. H. Crip- pen of London, wanted in connection with the mysterious death of his wife, Said today that he had not heard from his father regarding his stepmother’s death other than by a letter he received late in April or early in May. Dr. Crippen then wrote that his wife had gone to California to settle an es- tate, and had died from pleuro-pneu- Monia in San Francisco. This one let- ter was from London. Hawley Crippen admitted that he had received several letters from members of the Music Hall Ladies’ Guild, e london, asking if it were true that Dr. Crippen’s wife had died at the step- son's home in Los Angeles: These Jet- ters, Crippen said, asserted that Dr. Crippen had announced in London that such was the case. Crippen says that the letters denying the repert. He re- fused to discuss the case further. He said he had read the early reports of the case, and that they were correct so far as he knew. “T have not received a letter from my son, Di. Crippen, since a year trgo last May,’ said M. A.

He wrote that his wife had died In Sun Francisco.

It took Thomas Stewart, 57 years old, homeless and out of work, five days to break into the Workhouse. When Acting Judge Grier of the Clark Avenue Police Court imposed a fine on Stewart equivalent to a sentence of 46 days in the Workhouse Friday, he exclaimed: “Now I am happy. I will have a chance to clean up and pull my nerves together. Maybe, at the end of my sentence I.will feel like working again. I am going to be a good pris- oner. I am sure the confinement will do me a world of good.”’ Stewart applied to Police Head- quarters for lodging several days ago. When he was released the following morning he begged the Captain to send him to the Workhouse. “I can’t send you to the Work- house,” the Captain told him “Go out and try to find a job. You will have to violate some ordinance be- fore we can have you sent to the Workhouse.” Stewart hung around the police sta- tion five days. He was finally arrest- ed for tdling. He was delighted when Policeman Bernard told him he would have to be tried and probably would be sent to the Workhouse. He said his wife was dead @nd that his chil- dren were not helping him. He worked as a switchman for the Mis- sourit Pacific Railroad until April 15, G, JULY 14, 1910.

NeW EVIDENCE IN POLICE SCANDAL Finds Report of Auditing

Committee Which Is Likely to Cause a Rehearing. 7—_—oC_— That Sergt. Thomas Conlon and Patrolman Charles Sanders, who were fined by the Police Board, signed an auditing report in 1907 commending John M. Healy’s bookkeeping as “splendid,” while Patrolman George J. Butler, who was discharged from the force, refused to fign it, was learned on authority at police head- quarters Friday. This new evidence may compel a rehearing of the three cases. Chief of Police Young unearthed the report and is guarding it. He refused permission to inspect it, and declined to say whose names were signed and whose were not signed to the report. In surmnming up the cases, Assdciate City Counseior . liaird recommended clemency in the cases of Conlon and Butler. Conlon was found guilty of ac- cepting ‘expense money” from Healy and fined $50. Sanders, convicted of the scme offense and of signing a false re- port in 1909, was mulcted a month’s pay. Butler was found guilty of accepting $35 from Healy in 1908 and 19%. It is reported that all of the men fined and reprimanded in the recent Police Board trials will be transferred from their districts. Chief Young said that it would be a good thing for the depart- ment if these men were shifted to other stations. George B. Webster, attorney for Lieut. Thomas J. McCormack, who was dis- charged from the force for accepting “expense” money from Healy, says he will take the case to the St. Louis Court of Appeals, if possible, on a writ of cer- tlorart.

eS eg ee es eee ee ee THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMEN IN THE WORLD

Ten years ago it might be truth- fully said that the most beautiful and fascinating women lived in Paris. But ten years brings many changes in these days of almost magical ad- vancement. Today it may be truth- fully said that there are more beauti- ful women in the United States and Canada than in all of Europe. There’s a reason, of course, and that reason is a very simple one. The women of America have learned that without lustrous and luxuriant hair no woman, no matter how attractive her features or how graceful her form, can reach the perfection that the high standard of the present day calls beauty. The women of Ameriea have learned to take care of their hair. Since the introduction of Parisian Sage they have learned that filthy dandruff is unnecessary; that falling hair and itching scalp can be quickly

stopped.

LEADS OTHER PLACES

Rye Beach, N. H., Is Second in Favor, With Biddeford Pool, Me., Third. Wequetonsing, Mich.,—’’Weque”’ oan the tongues of the social elect—is the favorite summer resort of ultra-fash- ionable St. Loufsans, This is proved by this summer's edition of the ‘Black Book,” or Social Register, which has just been published. ) Sixteen of the Black Book’s 670 pages are devoted to recording the vacation domiciles of St. Louis society. In this list are 24 entries;*most of them repre- senting entire families, at Wequetonsing, while not more than 12 are credited to any other resort, . Rye Beach, WN. H., has 12 entries; Jamestown, RR. I., 11, and Biddeford Pool, Me., 10. Port Huron, Mich.; Woodstock, Vt.; Dublin, N. H.; Harbor Point, Mich.; Cobourg, Ont.; and Mag- nolia, Mass., have three entries each, while Marion, Mass.; Lake Minnetonka, Minn.; Pointe aux Barques, Mich.; Ken- nebunkport, Me, and Oconomowoc, Wis., have two entries each. Register Is Exclusive. Exclusiveness, rather than com-‘ pleteness, is the aim of the Social Register, and it is perhaps for this reason that no record of the vaca- tion wanderings of “Jiggers” Gal- lagher and “Boots” Brennan is to be found between its covers. The reader will also notice the omission of many other persons whose vacations are be- ing spent among as luxurious sur- roundings and in as expensive a manner as those of the elect persons included in the record. Some of the omitted ones are included in last winter’s St. Louls edition of the Black Book, but were left out in the process of condensation. There are more than 24 fashion- able St. Louis families at Weque- tonsing, and there are more at the other resorts than the book shows, but the Michigan resort’s long lead in the book is believed to be carried out proportionately.

GUGENHEIMS OPEN UP COPPER FIELD IN AFRICA? Three Shiploads Imported to New Jersey Smelting Works. T. F. RYAN’S SCHEME Location of Mines Kept Se- cret—Big Drop in Prices Is Expected. a

By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, July 15.—Three shiploads of copper ore arrived at Perth Amboy from South Africa yesterday consigned to the local smelter of the American Smelting and Refining Co., controlled by the Guggenheims. The shipments were generally believed to be the fore- runners of heavy imports of copper and other metals from the new African fields, which a powerful syndicate, headed by Thomas F. Ryan and the Guggenheims, has been developing for the last year. While the source of this new copper supply is being carefully guarded by the officers ‘of the American Smelting an‘ Refining Co., it is believed to be in the Congo territory, a portion of which was acquired about two years ago by the syndicate from the Jate King of Bel- gium. Thomas F. Ryan is said te be so deeply interested in the project that he expects to pay a visit to the Congo before his return from the other side. Copper Stock Drops. With this new source of copper sup- ply, which is said to be one of the richest in the world, the old high-cost producing copper companies of Montana are facing competition. On Wednesday Amalgamated Copper sold down to 56, the lowest price in several years, and the liquidation of this stock appeared to come from inside sources. Despite the efforts of the United Met- als Selling Co. and the so-called Copper Trust, which is controlled by the Stand- ard Oil interests, the supply of copper is continually increasing. Meanwhile the price of copper on the Metal Ex- change has been steadily declining. Yes- terday it broke to 11.90 asked and 11.50 bid. Several months ago the so-called Cop- per Trust, which consists of the Amal- gamated, Anaconda and other controlled properties, attempted to organize a big combination. While it was publicly an- nounced that the combination had been abandoned because the promoters feared prosecution by the Government, it was generally known in copper circles that the merger failed because the Mor- gan-Guggenheim-Alaskan syndicate re- fused to become a party to it and the Guggenheims declined to turn in their Utah and Nevada Consolidated proper- ties, which mine copper with steam shovels. Without these low-cost produ- cing. enterprises the combination would have failed. Congo Labor Cheap. The openmg of the South African fields, therefore, further embarrasses the Copper Trust. The cost of Jabor is very low in the Congo and the ore Is excep- tionally rich. Copper men_predict that the price of copper will go below ll cents unless some sort of an agreement or cur- tailment of production is entered into by the big producers of the world. Meantime, a great battle between the two conflicting interests is going on in the stock market. Up to this time the independent interests seem to have the whip hend. Amalgamated has been forced to the lowest price in recent years, whereas Utah and American Smelting and Refining have shown a smaller ratio of decline. When an officer of the American Smelting and Refining Co., at 156 Broad- way, was told today that the Post-Dis- patch had information that three ship- } loads of copper ore had been received at Perth Amboy, he expressed great sur- prise. Source of Supply Secret. } “How did you get hold of that?” he said. “I did not suppose that it was known. The information is correct. We have been receiving shiploads of gold; copper and silver ore at our Perth Am- boy smelter from Africa. However, I do not care to disclose the exact source of these shipments. That is a business secret which we do not want our com- petitors to know too much about.” PEDDLER WHO USED SHORT MEASURES IS FINED $10 Judge Also Mulcts Him an Addi- tional $10 for Resisting ‘ Arrest.

Not Only That, but Anonymous Writer Immortalizes Event in Verse. When Barth Kennedy, city clerk of Alton, weds next Wednesday evening, it will be the first marriage ceremony of which the City Council has taken official cognizance. Not merely wag it epread upon the records of that august body that a two-weeks’ ieave of absence was granted to Kennedy for a honey moon trip, but the occasion was further celebrated in verse. A painstaking investigation into the authorship of the verse has proven fruitless. No one has confessed it, the reason for which will perhaps appear, from this sample: ' The tumult and the shouting dies; Bart and his bride depart; While we sta fight the flies And wish them joy with all our heart. The title of the verses is ‘‘Extrases- siohal,”’ and the apologies are not to Kipling alone, but to the world in gen- eral. An Alton ordinance authorizes city fficials to appoint a deputy for the performance of their duties. ‘‘in case of fliness or otherwise,” and when City Comptroller Boynton read Kennedy's petition for a leave of absence the coun- cilmen were insistent on being “put wise” to what the otherwise meant. Kennedy was dragged from his hiding place in an ante-chamber, and blushing- ly explained that Stork Mayor Beall had told him that, in view of an increase in salary from $75 to $100 a month, it was his duty to the town, to the com- munity and to the fair Staite of Illinois to marry. Miss Nellie Alt had agreed to marry him, he added. Miss Alt is a school teacher. The two will spend their honeymoon in Colorado. —— ee eee ee CONSTIPATION MUNYON’S PAW-PAW PILL Paw- ls are un- like all other laxa- tives or cathartics. .They coax the liver into activity by gratle methods. hey do not scour; they do not gripe; they do not weak- en; but thev do start all the secre- tions of the liver and stomach in a wey that soon puts ese Organs in a healthy condition and corrects consti- pation.

Charles, held in the St. Louis police holdover pend- ing the promised issuance of a warrant by Assistant Circuit Attorney Rosskopf charging ‘him with embezzling $366, says the dispute with Thomas L. Johnson, State Inspector of Hotels, which led He says he is willing to turn over to Johnson all that is due as soon as Johnson pays what is due him. Marten acted as a hotel inspector Jast October and November. He was to re- ceive $100 a month and expenses. He says his salary for November and his expenses for October and November have not been paid, the whole amount- ing to $225. Johnson says Marten was discharged in December, following the discovery that his accounts were short. He told Chief of Police Young about it Thurs- day and the Chief said he would have Marten arrested if a warrant were is- sued. Johnson saw Rosskopf and he agreed to issue a warrant if Marten were arrested. Chief Young asked Sher- iff Hines to arrest Marten. Hines was reluctant tga do so, as he said Marten was. a prominent man in §t. Charles, owning considerable property, but if a detective were sent he would make an arrest. Detective Heckel was sent out, Marten was arrested and Heckel brought him to St. Louis and- locked him up. Marten was for nineteen years cash- ier of the St. Charles Savings Bafhk and has held other positions of trust. He says the charge against him is absurd. He says he will place the amount claimed by Johnson with the surety company that is on his bond to be paid over when Johnson pays him his salary and expense money.

IO rid SOCK BANK DuQuoin, IIl., Man Recovers Portion of $3250 Found - by Woman on Street.

With $2000 salted away in & salt sack pinned to his sock, Gedérge- G. Hasry has gone back to his home at Duquoin, Ill, after the deposit in his hosiery bank had shrunk $1250 in passing through various adventures. Hasry, a retired farmer, came to St. Louis a few days ago with $3250 with which he wished to buy city proper- tv. He went into a saloon at Broad- way and Poplar street, and coming out, sat down on the steps to rest, When he got to his lodging house he found the salt sack and its safety pin support, but no money. He went to the police and offered. a reward of #500 for its recovery. Later, Mrs Mattie Rich alias Brown, 513 South Broadway, complained to the police that a large sum of money had been stolen from her home. Detectives searching the house, found the money in a bureau drawer, where she had placed it and forgot it. She stated that she had found the money on the street, and it proved to belong to Hasry. The wom- ao was arrested on a charge of failing to advertise her find, as the law re- quired. Henry Brown, arrested with her, was released. She had loaned part of the money to neighbors and spent a portion of it. Hasry reclaimed the remainder, and on the basis of his offer of $500 for the recovery of all the money, he paid $376 to Detective Kaiser and Quinn, who found it. Kaiser got $362, because he located the money, and Quinn, who was with him, $138.. They must turn over one-fifth of the reward to the Police Re- lief Association, under the rules of the department. ] TWO DEAD, TWO OTHERS ARE PROSTHATED BY THE HEAT Actor Succumbs in Sanitarium; Painter Is Stricken While. at Work.

re ROMBAUER’S JUBILANT PREDICTION. Speaker E. R. Rombauer of the House of Dele- gates is, by his own confession,-a complete fail- ure as a public official. He is out of sympathy with popular sentiment. He is so constituted that he cannot work in the public interest. This is a valuable, if belated, discovery on the part of Mr. Rombauer, As he illustrates his own case, he favored the Terminal Association’s scheme to get a franchise for entrance into the Ranken tract. He was out- voted. He favored the retention of the bridge arbitrary. He was outvoted again. In proof of the perfect correctness of his own position and as a challenge to those who opposed his views, he selected for the Arbitrary Abolition Committee the strongest men on the other side. “They met,” he said. “They did nothing. They won’t do anything, and although I shall help them all I can, they never will do anything.” This is an astonishing utterance from one who promises to help all he can. With pr without Mr. Rombauer as a guiding light, St. Louis never will do anything unless it surrenders abjectly to the claimants of more privileges. For one who holds such views retirement to private life is the one logical course. It is a sad case, and the privileged are to lose a sturdy champion. La, Li dr i i i Mr.: Loeb is hesitating a little—probably wait- ing to ascertain how much of it is going to be blamed to him.

THE BIG POLICE STEAL. The ending of the Police Relief cases by the Police Board is tame, after their sensational course to the final trial. No felonies s0 far have been proven with the aid of Healy and the vil-

‘lainous crime with which he is charged is incom- parably worse than any offense he has fastened _ upon any one of his associates. The Police Board seems to have taken a sensi- ble view of the cases. The punishments are probably just. But if no one is punished for the big steal, justice will miss the markamile. There must be an accounting before the bar of justice for) the $13,000 shortage, no part of which was in the petty expense funds of the police officers. ha hi he a

_. “assurance” companies they represented are

being exposed by investigation. A very few sentences may be enough for recollection. Thus the “star salesman” among the commercial travelers, employed to exploit country bankers and others, says: “I sold them hot air.” * Marketing hot air through commercial travel- ers, working on commission, is not a St. Louis specialty. A special act was once passed to cover all forms of obtaining money under false pre- tenses not already covered by Missouri statutes. it was aimed specially at “horse sharks,” whose false pretenses were discrediting the St. Louis livestock market. As it did discourage them, it ought to discourage hot-air sharks dealing in stock of any kind. They might not improve the

Marshall of Indiana, who told a Post-Dispatch reporter that he believed in obeying the Consti- tution as it is written. The Indiana Governor believes in conserving the separate functions and powers Of the three co-ordinate branches of the Government as they are defined in the Consti- tution. “I don’t believe,” he said, “the chief suasion, personal argument or by giving or with- holding patronage, compel a legislature to enact laws or the courts to interpret them in accord- ance with the will of the executive.” This is not only a definition of the Constitu- tional limitation of presidential powers, but by reason of its soundness it is a sharp criticism - the Rooseveltian methods of forcing legisla- on. The issues, as Gov, Marshall sees them, may be summed up in the’ phrase, “Cannonism and Spe- clal Privileges.” Despotism in legislation cre- ated and supported by the interests which enjoy special privileges. The two are bound to- gether. The Governor would strike down the protective tariff as the foundation of privilege and the chief support of Cannonism. . In this Gov. Marshall and Congressman Champ Clark agree, It is refreshing to note the plain, simple Demo- cratic ideals and remedies whigh this Indiana Democratic leader suggests. He has no fads. He sees in the evils we have only old evils in new forms, and believes in the old remedies, a return to the enforcement of laws against dishonesty. He doesn’t believe that a multiplication of laws means good government, or that it is necessary to smash business in order to punish individual dishonesty. The revival of Democratic power in Indiana brought into the public eye a man who at least knows what Democracy means. i i, i, rT After a little time of glory the flying machine has begun to roll up rapidly the list of its vic- tims. “As easy as flying” was a good old say- ing, but it seems now to be too near an equiva- lent to “as sure as dying.” titillta —_—!

a A A — =— REAL AND POTENTIAL FRAUD. “We have a right to prevent the perpetration of frauds against us,” said President McCulloch of the United Railways to the Council’s Special Committee. “It has been shown in New York,

plained, “that a passenger can ride al] day for one nickel.” Riding all day for one nickel may or may not be a fraud; considering the ordinary comforts and discomforts of street car travel, it might or might not be evidence of insanity. We concede the right of the United Railways to prevent the perpetration of fraud, but we submit that the United Railways has no monopoly of that right. In fact the situation presents in striking form the difference between a condition and a theory. It is always pertinent to suggest that those com- plaining of fraud comé to court‘with clean hands. + A — ae. eo A $5,000,000 TARIFF JOKER.

The paragraph of the tariff law in which man- ufactures of rubber are provided for reads: “Manufactures of bone, chip, grass, horn, In- dia rubber, palm leaf, straw, weeds or whale- bone.” Manufactures of India rubber are listed in the exact center, occupying the most innocent and inconspicuous position. * When Speaker Cannon goes to Winfield, Kan., to preach the gospel of privilege in Senator Bristow’s State, he might explain that crude rub- ber to the value of $100,000,000 a year comes in free of duty and of manufactures of rubber none comes at all. Senator Aldrich’s 5 per cent ad- vance means anything from $5,000,000 to $10,000,- 000 a year to the Trust. i i i. i i a Aviator Latham says that in the air “one loses all sense of the horizontal” and perhaps that is as good an explanation as any other. » » » — ee Among all the others the Italian royal family rill be glad that young Mr. Hitt has succeeded

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE. To the Rditor of the peernaebien I hope the City Council will look, well into the proposition made by the Laclede Gas Co. before sly it. It seems to me that the poor people, ; ose living’ in small houses and flats from three t0 five rooms, will not be benefited in any way bY e offer made. Ag I understand it a reduction is to be made only where 10,000 feet of gas is used per month, and it would take a long time for many of us to use that much. The rich people can afford to pay the present rate or have ele~tric light, and the decrease in price should affect the poor people as well as the manufacturers and other wealthy ones. ONE OF THE POOR. Changing t dar To the Editor of the Post-p — f Having read with much interest the editorial entitled “Changing the Calendar” in last Sunday's Post-Dispatch, I should like to add a few sus- gestions of my own. ‘ he arrangement proposed by Baron von’ War- tess is a very good one, so far as it goes, but he might go a step farther and have the begin- uing of each month moved backward about 10 days, in order to make the calendar agree with the true solar divisions of the year. The circle of the heavens was divided into 12 sections in very early times—so remote that we have no record of the beginning. Each of these spaces of 80 degrees represented the same number of days, with a fraction over. When the solar cal- endar had superseded the older lunar calendar the months were arranged to begin with the en- trance of the sun into each of these 12 signs, oF divisions, the first, or spring quarter of! three months, beginning with the sun on the earth's equator, our March 21; the second, or summer quarter, began when the sun was at the northern solstice, our June 21; the third, or autumn quar- ter, with the sun again on the equator, our Sept. 3, and the fourth, or winter quarter, when the tun had reached the lower solstice, our Dec. 22. But, with our present perfect knowledge of as- tronomical values, there is no reason why this} overlapping of the caléndar and solar months should longer be continued. March 21 should be vtalled April 1; June 21, July 1; Sept. 23, Oct. 1; Dec. 22, Jan. 1, and all the other months like- wise. Our present “New Year’ does not represent the beginning of the solar year, or anything else but an-arbitrary point, fixed upon by accident, :nd 10 days from its right position, and the same Is, of course, true of all the months. The year should begin at the winter solstice, br, better still, at the spring equinox, when the reawakening of nature’s powers into life and activity throughout the northern hemisphere be- tokens the real “new year.” In most of the an- cient civilizations the year did begin at this point, though in Egypt it was placed at the sum- mer solstice, when the Nile began its annual rise, this being the chief évent in-the yearly round of the seasons in the' Nile Valley. Let astronomers begin the year at one of the four cardinal points, adopting Von Hartegsg’s tri- meter division for the months, and we will have, for the first time in long ages, a perfect calendar, | and one which will never again need “reforming,” so long as our present state of astronomical knowledge shall endure. As to the placing of Easter, it should be the Sunday next after the vernal equinox, which it typifies, as did the old Jewish Passover—the pass- ing of the sun over the earth’s equator, when the darkness and death of winter give place to the light and life of spring. F. M. BEHYMER. Reading Matter for Poorhouse. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The city poorhouses have some intelligent old people who have seen better days. Their life at best is sad, but it could be cheered by bringing to them the books and magazines that we can pasily spare. Some have incurable disease, some are too old to battle again with the world, but the mind its still clear and active and plenty of reading matter would-be a priceless boon for their tediously long, lonesome hours. Many of these helpless or old people are there by the treachery, or misconduct of others, or through other untoward circumstance for which they were not responsible; and, anyway, the power to make or to save money is not the only thing worth while—the only criterion for a suc- cessful life. A magazine which we no longer care for would give pleasure to many a lonely old heart that has learned to think that “nobody cares.” iL C. Telegraph Rates. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The Alaskan telegraph systems are owned by the United States Government, and, as a conse- quence, the rates” are only _one-fourth those charged in the States, and a still greater re- duction is being planned. This is what it means to have the Government serve the people—service at cost. If the Constitution allows the Govern- ment to operate the telegraph business in Alaska, let’s have it in the States. England not only owns the telegraph lines and telephone systems, but is taking steps to own and control the wire- less systems. E. Z MARX, Bad Odors Should Be Abated. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch, Some time ago there were complaints about the packinghouses out on Papin street on ac- count of the smell, but how about the N. K. Fairbanks Soap Co., Third and Convent streets? The smell there is so bad that it almost smoth- ers a person seven blocks away when they pass by it on a car. These hot evenings when father and mother, sistef ahd brother come home from work after being ,closed up in workshops and factories all day long and would like to sit out on the porch and steps in “the evening to get a little fresh air, but they have to inhale that horrible odor. What is the matter with the Board of Health that they don’t take action against it; or the South Broadway merchants and others in the vicinity? The people should get together in that neighborhood and demand that they put up high chimneys to carry away the smell or make them close up. Park Near Union Station. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Our great Union Station is one of the hand- somest structures. At present it stands hemmed in on all sides so that its beauty is hid under a bushel. A park system in this neighborhood is an aesthetic necessity. There happens to be at this time a whole block of vacant ground within a block of the station. Could not the old Good Shepherd Convent (afterward the tempor- ary City Hospital) on Seventeenth, Eighteenth, Pine and Chestnut streets, be dedicated or pur-~- chased for park purposes? This would be a nucleus around which we could eventually create @ great park area at the gate way to the city. If the owners of this block could not be pre- vailed upon to deed the property to the city, it should be purchased and converted into a pretty little park space. The money for the purpose could easily be raised if some of the big tax- dodgers were made to pay up their back taxes. OSCAR EVERTZ. VANISHING CHARMS AND DOLLAES. From the Baltimore Star.

MONGOOSE AND PUFF ADDER. From ‘African Game Trails,’’ by Theodore Roosevelt. Tarlton, by the way, told me an inter- esting anecdote of a white-tailed mon- goose and a snake. One day they brought in a rather small puff adder, less than two feet long, put it on the floor and showed it to the mongoose. Instantly the latter sprang toward the on end, and halted five feet away, while the snake lay in curves like the thong of a whip, its head turned toward the mongoose. Both were motionless for a moment. Then, suddenly, the mongoose seemed to lose all its excitement; its hair smoothed down, and it trotted quietly up to the snake, seized it by the middle of the back—it always de- voured its food with savage voracity— and settled comfortably down to its meal. Like lightning the snake’s head whipped round. It drove its fangs deep into the snout or lip of the mongoose, hung on for a moment, and then re- peated the blow. The mongoose paid not the least attention, but went on munching the snake's body, severed its backbone at once, and then ate. it up, head, fangs, poison, and everything; and it never showed a sign of having re- ceived any damage in the encounter. I had always understood that the mon- goose owed its safety to its agility in avoiding the snake’s stroke, and I can offer no explanation of this particular incident.

N wading a running stream’ cover every point where large rocks make eddies; bass move from place to place, and are just as likely to be at the edge of the stream as in the middle. Bass, more than most fish, take the fly as it drops on the water, and dart like a flash after a moving fly, says a writer in Collier’s. A long deep pool should be fished from the bottom, casting upstream; if such a pool have a high, rocky side force the fly close to it. Fishing on lakes is quite different from river fishing. The time of day, weather conditions, flies on the water, all have influence in getting bass to rise. The best time is rippling water, gray sky, just after a rain on a warm morning. Have the boat in deep water, cast far out toward shallow bars, rocky or weedy places. Never allow the flies to lie still on the water; if they sink it is better, then jerk in short runs; in a word, tease the fish, and they will respond. Make every effort to drop a fly on the spot where a fish rises; if no response ] repeat the cast a few feet away with a new fly. Casting the minnow and artificial lures, next to fly-fishing is the most artistic mode of angling for bass; indeed, in some respects it is more difficult. The same method of casting will suffice for both live bait and artificial lures—the difference comes in when the fish strikes. With live bait the bass should be allowed from four to twelve seconds to gorge the bait before you strike. With arti- ficial lures the strike of the fish should be followed instantly by the strike of the angler to set well the barb before the fish can eject the lure, which it does instantly it discovers the deception.

ACUTENESS OF COWBOYS. Herders on Texas cattle ranches become so expert in their scrutiny of cattle that in buying them on the hoof they often rely for enumeration upon a glance at the herd as they ride past, says a writer in the North American Review. Their passing es timate practically never varies more than two or three from the actual number in herds of from fifty to one hundred, and in much larger’ herds of from two hundred to five hundred their estimates will preserve the same proportion of accuracy. In some cases this ability to es timate is carried to a higher degree of accuracy even for very large herds. In the early seventies, before the day of weighing scales and railroads, cattle buyers in the Southwest would buy cattle at so much a hundred- weight from their owners. This es- timate of weight was based on what the cattle would weigh after they had been driven two hundred, three hundred or four hundred miles to the Kansas City market. Nevertheless, the error would only amount to a few pounds, not enough too affect their profits. Charles Goodnight of Goodnight, Tex., the owner of the famous buffa- lo herd bearing his name, told some extraordinary, things about a negro he knew. When the roundup time came they would place the. negro in an advantageoug position and drive past him the herds belonging to dif- ferent men. All these cattle except the calves had their owners’ brands. Later, when these calves, after hav- ing been mixed up in the corral, were taken out to be branded, he could tell which brand to put on each from having noted at the time to which cow each belonged. at pains to substantiate by corrobor- ative testimony from friends on the spot actively associated with the busi-

LUCKY ENGLAND. “Tn America the seller dominates business, so that the effort is always to increase prices; Kingdom the buyer is the dominat- ing factor, and the tendency is al- ways to lower prices.” This is why the Englishman can make a dollar go a considerable distance. further than can the American, according to Zach McGhee, who writes an inter- esting article on this subject in the July number of The World’s Work. He shows how co-operation holds down the cost of living, and he has compended a novel table containing the cost of living per week of a fam- ily of five in an English mill town and in a New England mill towns The table need not be given in de- tail here. Its final showing is that the British mill worker receives an average weekly wage of $17.97, and the cost of living amounts to $12.44 weekly, leaving him a balance of $5.53, while the American mill work- er, receiving an average weekly wage of $25.08, must pay $21.15 for the weekly cost of living, leaving him a balance of $3.93, or $1.60 less per week than that of the British worker, whose weekly wage is $7.11 less than his.

There was no in- crease of animation in Leblun’s man- ner. He still leaned back in his chair, watching the blue smoke of his some- what odoriferous cigarette. “Here,” Leblun continued, “we must permit to ourselves the license of a little imagination. We learn that for years the girl and the hunchback tramped side by side along the high- ways and the byways of the Conti- nent. They tramped through France, they tramped through Germany, they were heard of, even, in that home of all mendicants—the north of Italy. Then at last, not so long ago, they came to England. One hears of them in London. Things, apparently, have not gone well with them. Ambrose is in rags. The girl walks as one whose interest in life is finished, in soiled clothes, in gaping boots, brok- en-splirited, broken-hearted. And then, one day, presto, the magician’s wand! One looks again. One sees the girl in a handsome apartment, with carriages and motors, with ber own French maid, olad in furs and silks and laces, a customer at the best shops, a person with apparently a limitless purse. The unchback’s days of prosperity have not yet come. Still he tramps the gutters. The mud from the wheels of his quondam com- panion’s motor spashes him as he makes sad music in the _ forlorn streets. One asks oneself, whence her prosperity?” Leblun looked down from the cei}. ing. He seemed to have fixed his at. tention upon one particular scrap of smouldering paper. “One is not kept long In doubt,” he went on. “One hears of the visits at her apartment of @ mysterious gen. tleman.

“** jm a damned He!” Hannaway thundered out. Leblun turned his head, turned it as swiftly as the head of a mechanical toy. His hand. flashed out. He was suddenly alert. “Then why.” he asked, “is she living upon the Marquis of Ellingham’s money? Tell me that. You say that she is not his mistress, and you say it with conviction. Then what remains?” CHAPTER XXXII. HE two men sat looking at each other for several breathless seconds. Hanna- way felt all the angry im- potence of a man caught in a trap. His face was Still being raked by Leblun’s merciless eyes. He had be- trayed the secret which he was 80 anxious to guard. Leblun had played with him as with a child.. “So you deny my very natural in- ference?” Leblun said, breaking the Silence at last. “You believe that Mademoiselle de Lanson has some other claim upon Lord Ellingham? It may be so. You may be right, my friend.” “I know nothing of the matter,” Hannaway said slowly. “It was fool- ish of me to discuss it with you.” Lebluh shrugged his shoulders. “Between comrades,” he said, “what does it matter? To talk is always in- teresting. It would astonish you to know it, my dear friend, but I am not at all sure that you have not supplied me with the missing clue. By the by, have you any acquaint- ance with Lord Ellingham?” “None,” Hannaway answered brief-

ly. “A very interesting personality,” Leblun said. “I read his speeches al- ways. A friend of France, too, it would be Interesting to meet him.’ Hannaway rose to his feet. “Mr. Leblun,” he said, “I will wish you g00d afternoon.” “If you must go,” Leblun remarked. Hannaway left the room, made a circuit of the building, and issued again into the courtyard. He called a hansom, and was driven at once to Cavendish Square. The major-domo of the household came forward to answer his eager inquiries. The mar- quis was not at home. He had lunch- ed out. He was probably now at his club, or on his way down to the Stee back into his annaway stepped ac n hansom, and aveve t Pal] Mall.

He smoked one of the cfgarettes with which the room was lavishly supplied, took up the papers one by one, and threw them down. Christine would never forgive ad he was sure of that.

Leblun laid a trap for me, and I fell into it. He spoke of Mademoiselle de Lanson. He spoke of her as a beggar, and he spoke of her life today. He smiled— an irritating, maddening smile.

Then why, he ask- ed, does the money of the Marquis of Ellingham provide luxury for Made- moiselle de Lanson? i could not answer. He knew that I could not answer. Lord Ellingham was silent for sev- eral moments. “I wonder,’ ‘he re- marked, “how he ever got hold of my name at all?’ “He traced Christine,” Hannaway said. “Then, of course, he’ searched for the explanation of her altered circumstances. His inquiries led him to you. Perhaps he was not abso- lutely certain that his explanation was not really the truth. At any rate, he tried it on me, ang I fell.” “Does Mademoiselle de Lanson know this?” the marquis asked.

He had no defense, there was no hole for escape. He was guilty. He was the man who should have suffered in prison, as Marcel had suffered. He was the man, indeed, whom the authorities had thought they were punishing. There was no hope, he told himself; nothing to do but to keep a brave face to the world, and perhaps—But that he must think of more seriously. The ethics of suicide had always interested him. Surely, if anyone was justified in es- caping from life, he was. A beggan with a tray of matches touched him upon the arm. “Only one penny a box, sir. Buy a box, guvnor.” The marquis shook his head. The man still kept his place. They were passing a four-wheel cab, drawn up against the curb. The beggar leaned over his tray. “Step into that cab for one moment, sir,” he muttered under his breath, “It is Marcel who waits for you there.” The man glided away. Lord Elling- ham turned involutarily toward the cab drawn up against the curb. In- side was a furtive figure with black- rimmed eyes and ghastly face. It was Marcel, hiding among the cushions, afraid to look out, and yet eager to attract his attention. Lord EFllingham paused. After a moment's hesitation he crossed the pavement and stepped into the cab, Continued in the Post-Dis- patch Tomorrow .

With one of the six neroplanes of the novices at .Washington Park smashed, another showing av indication to buck like a broncho, and three giving no evidence that they will get off- the ground, the expectations of the aero enthusiasts who have been daily spec- tators at the trials, are now centered on C.

Raiu Friday caused a postponement of the triais until Saturday, when it is announced Curzon will make a long fight, Curzon flew in the machine which re- fused to get off the ground at Forest Park Guring Centennial week last Octo- ber.

It Was pay day at the -construction camp. After midnight when the rail- road men were in their bunks, the rob- bers made their appearance with drawn revolvers. They ordered the sleeping men from their beds, but four of their intended victims had decided to sleep in the open air on account of the heat. Men from the bunks were handmg over their pay envelopes to the robbers when their companions on the outside opened fire. In a moment the shooting ‘had become general. For several] minutes the battle continued and three of the railroad men fell, one shot fatally. Then the robbers filed.

The whirling propeller kicked up a great cloud of dust at the start and@ as the clumsy looking machine lutched for- ward and as it came swaying down the track the crowd of 1000 spectators start- ed cheering. After a rin of 200 yards Curzon tilted up his front elevator and, the machine rose into the air. The crowd cheered excitedly, expect- ing to see the machine climb. But the aviator held at a height of about six feet and brought her to the earth easily after he had traveled through the air 113 yards. Curzon won by this feat the $100 debut prize. Curzon then made another flight in which he rose to a height of 25 feet and for a distance of 322 yards. He came down with the west fence of the course 100 feet in front of him. The machine gave every indication of being a flyer and the experts at the field said that Curzon could have stayed up for half an hour or more if he had wanted te made a turn. After Curzon’s flights J. N. Spar- ling brought out his biplane. Great things, were expected of this trimly built craft, But after running over the ground for 650 feet the aeroplane suddenly. stumbled and fell on its nose—breaking. the front elevator. The rear tail plece caused the trouble. Its angle of incidence was too large, and even after a sand bag had been tied to it the machine did\not prove manageable.

LOGANSPORT. Ind. Pennsylvania July 15.—The Railroad ran a_ée special train to reunite Mra. Hency C. Ambrock of Chicago and her baby. Mrs. Ambrock left her train here to get luncheon and stepped back to the platform to find her train had departed. “Oh! My Baby!” she cried. “My child is on that train,” she said, waving in the direction the train had gone. -Word was sent to Bunker Hill, the next stop, to hold the train until a spe« cial could arrive with the mother. ocomotive and one car carried Mrs. Am- brock to the child.

Their offices are in the same block and when Justice ‘Miller, tired of waiting for business, de- cided to advertise, he put a sign in his window reading: “You can get married here.” Justice Edward Lee saw the sign and promptly displayed this one: ‘Married while you wait.” Justice A. D. Mobley, not to be out- done by his competitors, displayed a more commercial bent with this sign: “Why wait? Get married here."’ No increase of business at the m@gr- riage license office is yet reported, + Breaminations Weed Out Chauffeurs in New York. NEW YORK, July 15.—The confiden- tial clerk to Secretary of State Koe- nig, who is conducting an examination of chauffeurs in this city under the provisions of New York’s new automo- bile law, believes that the examina- tions will disqualify nearly one-fifth of the city’s motor car drivers. After Aug. 1 the examinations will be more se- vere. Of the 500 of New York’s 25,000 hired chauffeurs who took the examinations yesterday, fully 15 per cent failed. There were men in yesterday's exami- nation whe could scarcely read the ques- tions — oe had to write their an- swers in eir own tongue. French, Italian, German and Spanish chauffeurs imported by globe-trotting New Yorkers had the State Department's interpreters explain the question to them and .then wrote their answers tn their own lan- guages. These papers ail made a very high mark. George Robertson, the well- known driver of racing cars, got 100 per cent. A’ few rich men’s sons took the ex- amination as a “stunt.” Results from their papers show that they know more about automobiles than do their chauf- feurs.

NEW YORK, July 15.—After .having been in the Ladew family for fifteen years, the members. of which had treat- ed her more like a friend than a serv- ant? and after haying been the recipient of a legacy of $10,000 from Mrs. Louise Ladew, Idell Worth, who had been Mra. Ladew’s maid, repaid all this kindness by robbing the family of her benefac- tress of property worth $10,000. The dis- covery was only made on the eve of the woman’s sailing with her plunder for France. The Worth woman shipped ten trunks to the French Une pier.

ROGER AND HIS MEN DESERVE HIGHER BERTH

FOURTH PLACE IS REAL HOME OF CARDINALS

THAN SEVENTH, BUT WEAK PITCHING KEEPS BACK AGGRESSIVE CARDINALS FRIDAY EVENING, JULY 15, 1910. .BROWNS

*” And There You Are! By Jean Knott We ———— en

That’s Where the Six Ninth-Inning Blow-Ups Have Team Belongs, but

Roger’s Boys in Seventh Hole. B That may sound pretty lofty, even to the hottest Cardinal rooters, but that’s what. the figures say, and they claim figures Gon’t lie. Since July 4 the Cardinals have played 10 games. But three have been won. Only one of these games was deserved by the opposition. That was the fourth game with the Reds of Cincinnati, July 6, when Gaspar shut out the locals, while the Reds made but one run off Cor- ridon. So, after all, the Cardinals might. be said to have missed a clean sweep in the last 10 games by but a single run. That is, they would have bracketed nine out of the last 10 games but for that foolish habit-that has worked it- self about the red-hosed pitchers. In the six of the last 10 games played by the Cardinals they have led up to the ninth Inning, and have lost as many in the ninth inning. Friday morning the Cardinals’ figures were 32—43—.427. Were the six games that were lost in the ninth inning brack- eted, it would raise the Cardinals’ vic- tories. to 88. Their losses would be cut to 37. That would give them a .507 per- centage. As the’ Reds of Cincinnati won two of those ninth-inning rally things, their figures would then be 87—38—.493. So, instead of being fourth in the National League standing, the Cardinals are sev- enth. The Cardinals, too, have probably cre- ated a record for ninth-inning losses. Seven of the last 10 games played have been lost. Of the seven, six were dropped in the final round. While@the Cardinals should be oc- cupying fourth position save for the Superbas Pole Out Three of Their Four Hits and a Victory in Ninth hit game and blanked the Su- perbas of Brooklyn for eight in- nings in the second show with the Car- dinals at League Park Thursday. Then he fell tn line with other members of Bresnahan’s slab corps, let down in the ninth inning and permitted three runs to be scored. That gave the team from the wrong end of New York a 3-to-l victory over the Cardinals. we CORRIDON pitched a one- Corridon pitched a good game for eight innings. He was opposed by “Doc” Scanlan. He allowed seven hits. But in the seventh round, the Cardinals managed to pole out a run and with Corridon going along nicely victory No. 2 of the series seemed on the way. Although Scanlan offered several openings to the Cardinals to break into the run column, it wasn’t unti] the seventh that they finally succeeded. Then Kohttey started with a single to left center. Evans moved him up with a sacrifice, Lennox to Daubert. Phelps followed with a single to right. Burch, who had succeeded Dalton in right in the second, hurried the ball in to Er- win. The big receiver, though missed the throw and it rolled into the Brook- Iyn rathskeller. , Koney chased home and Phelps went to second. There was a row. Phelps claimed that he was entitled to take third, as the ball rolled into the coop. However, Messrs. Kane and Klem con- tended that he made no attempt to take second on the throw. Had he kept going after rounding first, he would have been entitled to another base, ac- cording to the rules. That all seemed very nice until the ninth. Corridon hadn’t allowed a hit since the fourth inning. But he couldn’t get them over for Wheat. And Hummel singled. Davida- son also put a one-spdt in left, Wheat chasing across the plate ahead of Ellis’ retufn. Davidson pilfered second and when Lennox poled out a sacrifice fly to Oakes Hummel came over with the winning run. T. Smith then scratched a hit midway between first and second. Koney ran over and mace the stop, but nme one covered first for his throw. Erwin rolled one to Koney, whose pass to Phelps killed Davidson at the plate. With two gone, Scanian sent up a short fly to left center. It seemed that it was either the property of Oakes or Ellis. But Hulswitt made a try for the catch. He got both hands on the baii, but dropped it, and Tony Smith came ever with the third run. nen At the beginning of the matinee Cor. ridon whesked Dalton on the head with a pitched bal). took the count of nine, got up and am- bled to first. At the end of the first session he retired in favor of Al Burch, gathered ‘the sensktional variety. In the eighth UT for the persistency of Roger Bresnahan’s pitchers in kick- ing over the bucket in the ninth inning, the Cardinals would today be occupying fourth position in the National League marathon, with the Cubs of Chicago, Giants of New York and Pirates of Pittsburg as their only leaders. He dropped ana/ Veo: “hee oot %

loss of the six mentioned games there’s no question but that the Bres- nahan outfit would be in the midst of the fight were it not for the same weak pitching staff. The Cardinals will have reached the half-way mark in the league race with the playing of two more games. They have lost 11 gamés more than they have they have won. And that with tnferior pitching all season. With any kind of pitching at all from the beginning of the season, the Cardinals would undoubtedJy have had more than 11 more victories to their credit, and a difference of 11 games in the won and lost totals means a whole lot. The 11 on the won side would see the Cardinals right up with the Cubs and Giants. The team right now is in the midst

of a pitching slump. The season, as sald before, hasn’t reached the half- way mark. Then, too, it has been a lively scramble among the four sec- jond division teams for honors. It isn’t too late for the Cardinals to do some climbing. Bresnahan’s team is making runs and playing a fair defensive game even if his outfielders are not hit- ting. All he needs is an improve- ment in the twirling end of the game. Frank Corridon has shown much im- provement in the last two full games he has pitched. Maybe he’ll continue, and Vic Willis, Lester Bachman and Johnny Lush wilb likely come later, while the tip is out that George, alias “Rube,” Geyer is soon to take his regular turn. If he can stick in a victory now and then it will help im- mensely.

BLEACHER

and grabbed Koney’s short foul near the bleacher end. Then the former Southerner took-an extra base hit away from Mowrey and a possible run from the Cardinals in the ninth. Mike con- nected squarely and the ball seemed headed for the wall. William Klem, official in charge of the show, stands for no rag-chewing. He and Manager Dahlen Slightly dif- fered on the calling of E. Lennox in the seventh, when Klem decided that Corridon had curved over a third strike on the Brooklyn third-baser. From the third-base coaching line W. Dahlen said things to Klem. The latter’s only re- ply was a request for Dahlen to leave the field. He did, but took his time.

Remarks were heard from the Brooklyn bench about Klem’s ability as an umpire. They brought other orders from Klem in the way of the banishment of Pitcher Knet- zer and Utility H. Smith.

Aforesaid banished athletes took seats along the wall near the clubhouse gate. More expulsions might have resulted in ground rules being established. Manager Bresnahan is off the sick list. He was in uniform and coached. Despite this, Erwin’s arm was in work- ing order. He picked Evans off second. Scanlan also nipped Ellis off first when the “native son” wandered too far from the bag.

O’Connor Angling for * One of Mack’s Catchers PHILADELPHIA, July 15. T LOOKS as if Jack O’Connor, man- | ager of the Browns and Connie of the White off some- Mack, the leader Elephants, intend to pull thing in the near future. When the managers held a long talk before Wednesday's game, little was thought of.the matter. They, however, got to- gether again yesterday on the Athletics’ bench and held a conference for 15 minutes. Neither manager would dis- cuss the nature of the conversation but there are rumors of a deal in the air. It. is reported that O’Connor is very anxious to land another catcher and that he is using his best Kerry Patch line of argument to induce Connie to loosen up. Mack now has four back stops, Thomas, frivingston, Lapp and Donahue. This is one too many, but the White Elephant leader is not dis- posed to let any of them go, at present, for he can not forget the slump which his team met with on its first Western trip when Thomas and Livingston met with eccidents. Newnam’s Bad Maff. , Newnam had s0 little to do in the early innings that he was guilty of a rank muff in the sixth on a throw by Hartzell to catch Barry on the latter's grounder. Up to that point Newnam had only two chances, which was quite different from Wednesday, when he averaged two chances for nearly every one of the 14 innings. No visiting player has been more vigorously applauded here this sea- son than Stone was when he robbed Thomas of a double in the sigth in- ning and prevented Barry from scor- ing. Thomas’ drive sailed far over Stone’s head. The latter turned as soon as the ball was hit, dashed for the fence, turned just in time, and then leaped into the air and landed the ball with one hand. S8tone fol- lowed up this play in the next inning by sending Stephens home with the run which tied the score on a long fly to Hartsel, The Browns hit the ball hard in the first seven innings and more than one- half of their put outs were on flies to the ‘outfield. In these sessions Mack's men accepted 12 files and let one es- cape, Uldring getting seven put-outs, Murphy three and Hartsell two. In the eighth inning Oldring and Mur- phy also figured in the putting out of Newnam and Truesdale at the home plate, and Stone and Hartzell went out on long files in the ninth, giving the Athletics’ outfielders 16 chances ac- cepted and one missed.

TRAYS, AM CRANE, himself a player of the old guard, and now a baseball that the outfielders of other days made more sensational plays than do the out- fielders of today. Perhaps, Sam; but perhaps they made more misjudges and thus, had to pull off the fireworks to Save themselves. Many of the wonderful catches of the present day are due to. the fact that the fielder does not locate the spot where the ball is to fall right off the reel. That this happens occasionally today is a sure indication of how much more frequently it must have occurred in the days when the game was young and when “playing the batter’ was not developed into the art which it has since become. “Phe good old days” are always fas- cinating in the restrospect. But they prejudice our minds when we would bring them into comparison with today. While here and there a man stands out Lin this or that line ag pre-eminent not only in his own age but in al] times, such Napoleons are the exception. The general average of performance in any line, twenty-five years ago, was infer- lor to that of toaay. Improvement, in- vention, and specialization make this necessarily so. Baseball is no exception and the outfielders of the long ago sufely can have nothing on the men of today in whom speed, accuracy and better throwing qualities have been specially developed. PR war sor twenty-five years ago was slovenly, inaccurate and much less scientific than now. Chance played a great part and the individual was much more potent than it is now. Any game where individual play is pre- eminent is rudimentary. The team-play games are those that show advance- ment. Baseball today is very much a team game; and because the various individual cogs at times lose identity in team work does not necessarily fol- low that the personnel of the club is weaker. Under a good manager and with the best battery available, playing a mod- ern game against the baseball of 1884, the leders of the American Association could defeat the team that four times won the pennant for St. Louis. Team work, improved pitching and new plays would make up any physical advantage the modern team might suffer by com- parison. Perhaps this is heresy, almost bias- phemy, coming from one who remem- bers the old Browns only through tra- dition and such tare visions as were to be obtained in moments of “hookey”’ playing. But records of the games and the rules of those days tell the story sufficiently well. Ask of the Browns of 1888 the things that teams today per- form and they would have to side-step. The game had not developed to within many pegs of its present standing. Give Us Tyrus Cobb,’ O, when Samuel tells us that Curt Welch was the greatest ever— Curt or anybody else he wants to name—just take the end of Tyrus Cobb or Tris Speaker or almost anyone of the modern players. Outfield play has probably varied less than any other branch of baseball since those brave old days. But even here, in mere fielding, the best men of the ol4 days would have to take off their hats to players of today.

NOW THEY RE TRYING TO SHOVE. THE BLAME OFF beers: EVERY WHERE—Quality | Knockout or Foul? D. JR. and others are still puz- F zied as to whether Jeffries was ® knocked out by Jack Johnson. Very naturally a number of others are in the same boat, for the official from Reno first announced that the negro would be credited with.a “putout” and, later, that he would not. Jeffries was not knocked onut—the fact that his seconds entered the ring dis- qualified him, under the rules. At the same time all the reputable stakehold- ers haye paid off on the basis of a knockout, as Jeffries was very plainly tnable to report for duty any further The money changers who desire to be fair argue the matter as follows: The “Money-Changers’” Views. F a man is palpably beaten and the question .of the sleep punch only one of moments, any interruption of the fight that prevents such a ter- mination ought not to count against the man who had .speculated on & Knockout finish. For the _ knockout might be prevented: by the referee, to gave punishment; by the police, for the Same purpose; by the seconds tossing 4 towel in the ting, with the same idea in view; or by the seconds entering the ring, with the idea of obtaining a dis- cualification and thus. preventing a “knockout” going on the record against their man. This last is a small thing to do, but it Was undoubtedly what happened at Reno. But the fact remains that with- out such interference nothing Jeffries could have done would have averted the sleep punch coming over, sooner or later. Thus the credit of a knockout is due the victor. This position was taken by the money men after the Nelson-Wolgast fight, which was stopped when Nelson was unable to lift his hands and when the finish was a certainty. The injustice of the Jeffries case is patent. For, although Jeffries was down and out, to all practical intents, it now appears that the fight will go into the records as ‘“‘“won on a foul’’—a most misleading verdict. ajeaencenaibaliapieiaiti Manufacturers’ League Schedule.

Johnson. : CHICAGO, Jvly 16.—If Frank Gotch, world’s champion wrestler, really is sin- cere in his desire to fight somebody here is his chance. Charley cutler, fellow wrestier and former fighter, is anxious to enter into a series of elimination contests, the beat man in the bunch to battle Jack John- son for the title. ’ But first of all Cutler desires to fight Gotch, and find whether the wrestling champion is really there or not. Cutler has mapped out a comprehensive pro- gram and wants the public to know all about it. Cutler knows all about Johnson. He was his sparring partner once, and while he frankiy admits that the negro has it on him in skill, clever- ness and speed, he believes his owh strength and gameness might carry the day. ee According to ‘Cutler’s story, he fought Johnson once in Reading, 1e1 Sam Fitzpatrick was manager of the black man.

Conrad Schaumburg, 27 years old, son of Henry Schaumburg, a coal merchant, had suffered from paralysis since he was an infant. His case had been pro- nounced incurable by many physicians. The upper part of his body is that of a giant. He had the head, shoulders and chest of an athlete. His legs are those of a child. During childhood and youth his fa- ther tried for him many famous doctors, but always without result. Nearly every hospital in New York was visited, but still the helpless legs remained immoy- able and withered. After he grew to manhood, with » stalwart body and helpless, withered legs, he gave up hope of ever being cured, he declares, and there came a time when he thought seriously of hav- ing the tiny limbs amputated, as they were in his way and he could much better make his way around without them. With the limbs in a pair of stout steel braces he swung himself along on @ pair of crutches, getting from : to place rapidly, but with pelt os 4 that was galling to him. Hypnotized by Count. Yesterday afternoon the patient ap- peared at the hotel. He walked with the aid of crutches, but instead of swing- ing himself along in the old way he moved one leg ahead of the ether. He went up to the doctor’s room in the elevator. After telling of his long search for . help the young man removed his shoes and stockings, rolled up his . trousers legs and reclined on a bed. The hypno- tist leaned over the bed, making passes downward across the oe and counting up to 16. When 3 have siunel is ou will be in a deep sleep,”’ he said, At the word “fifteen” the young man closed his eyes and turned his head slightly to one side. His breath- ing became regular and deep. His face relaxed. s “That you may be in a deeper sleep I will count 15 again,” said the Doc- tor. By the time the last number was said the patient’s limbs were lax and his breathing was regular. The un- mistakable limpness of a thoroughly relaxed body was in every outline. “Now I will give you a drink of the most exhilarating nectar that ever man tasted. It will make you per- fectly happy.” The doctor stepped to a faucet and drew a glass of ordinary water which he put into the hand of the man in the hypnotic sleep. The patient sat up, drank it with apparent relish and sank back‘on the bed. “Now you are greatly improved in health. The healing blood flows through your legs,. restoring circula- tion and building up the tissues. You have complete feeling in both legs and can move the limbs easily. You can move the feet. The legs are get- ting larger around. They are as much in your control as any other ‘part of your body.” It was at this point that a photorra- pher, who had placed his camera to take a picture, set off a flashlight. It was intended to be only a small and respectable explosion, but the cap was wet and it went off with a cannon-like explosion that shook the hotel. In- stantly windows upstairs and down went up and scared guests lifted their voices in the airshaft in inquiry. The supple form on the bed made no mo- tion. There was not se much as the trembling of an eyelash:to show he had heard it. He appeared dead to all save the voice of the hypnotist. Schaumburg was seen at his home last night and was able to move his legs when asked to do so by a re- porter. His father, Henry Schaum- burg, told of Conrad’s long HUlness. “When my son was 3 years old,” he said, “he had spinal meningitis and was left a cripple. Soon after he recovered from this disease we began to take him three times a week to the Orthopedic Hospital for treatment. Thiec treatment lasted for a year and then we took him to the Postgraduate Hospital. Later he was treated at St. Luke’s Hospital and then at the Laura Franklin Hospital. For ten years he had no treatment. “About a year ago at the Republican Club of the 2th Assembly District my son was introduced to Dr. doctor said that he had 4 treatment which he thought would do my boy good, and we were have him try it. “I don’t pretend to know treatment is nor how Dr. After every treatment, After every treatment, when ig between two chairs by Dr. Fox. wy .. touching one of. himself with just his finger, move his legs backward and Now he can do it without the tiem.”

-TODAY’S COMPARATIVE FUTURE QUOTATIONS. _ Reported by St. Louls Merchants’ va os ki, HI Meme Pai nr wire ie ot — ~—YCMARKETIN WEAK POSITION AT THE CLOSE Irregular Tone to General Trading; B. & O. Advances. NEW YORK, July 15, 12 p. m.—After the opening the,market was somewhat irregular without any definite tendency, but at noon a general movement to lower levels was in evidence. The dissapointing result of the New York. State bond sale, showing a lack of investment demand, for bonds of the highest class, had a bad effect on senti- ment. Metal’ shares figured prominently in the decline, amalgamated selling off point, Lead %, Steel 1 point and Ana- conda %. At noon Canadian Pacific was 2% points under its opening, Gt. Northern lost 1%, Atchison, L. & N. and So. Pacific % each, St. Paul % and Union Pagific 1 point. Prices in leading stocks advanced at the opening of the stock market today, some of the low-priced shares showing gmall losses on initial quotations. St. Paul opened % higher, Great Northern %, L. & N. %, Northern Pa- cific %, B. & O. % and Wabash pre- ferred %. Reading sold ex-dividend at the opening, advancing %. In the industrial division Smelting ad- vanced %, Harvester %, Laclede Gas %, Republic I. & S. %, Chemical % and Central Leather %. Lead advanced 1% points, with Amal- gamated Steel and Car Foundry selling unchanged. At the end of the first half hour small declines were registered, with the mar- ket irregular in places. The Pennsylvania strike situation re- mains the same as on ‘Thursday and fear is evinced in railroad circles that it will result in anything but a com- promise, with a partial recognition of labor demands. DETAILED REPORT OF DAY'S TRADING ON WALL STREET in

and Re- Rock Island pre- erred lost 1 %. Speculation was feverish and uncertain, wit rices ultimately declining. All of the important stocks covered a wide fractional range and the movement in St. Paul, Read- ing and American Smelting reached a point. Baltimore & Ohio rose 2, Consolidated Gas nd International Harvester 1 and National ead and Republic Steel 1%. _ The market was quite weak in spots at 11 o'clock, Cana- dian Pacific showing an overnight loss of 1% a } - Atlantic Coast Line, United States Steel, conda and American Steel Foundries 1. The early buying reduced the short terest when hie and prices were al- lowed to sag. e upturn in wheat and cotton and the Pennsylvania labor troubles were unfavorable influences. Candian Pacffic 3 and St. Southern Pacific and Union FPacific 1. , & Lake Erie frst preferred advanced 1%. Bonds were irregular. Many of the floor operators took advantage of -the increasing dullness of the market te begin their week-end holiday and in com scquence. there was ecarcely. any business transacted in the room. The market showed a hardenifig tendency. Fractional rallies threw the market semi-stagnation. The bulls showed some hesitation in following up the rally, al- though no important selling was encoun- t into ered. The market closed almost lifeless. Prices moved slowly towards recovery in the last hour, but the dealings were harly more than nominal. Chicago & Alton rose © Delaware & Hudson fell 1%. Westing- house Electric 14 and Pittsburg, C. Cc. & St. Louis and St. Louls & Southwestern ae ferred 1. There was a later sag of a fraction i nthe general list.

INDUSTRIAL NOTES- For the fiscal year ending June 30, 1910, the country comes out with a trade balance in its favor of $187,111,349. There have been five months of ee twelve when the balance was against us. The net result ig the smallest excess of exports since 1896.

In the second quarter of this year the United States Steel Corporation operated on an average basis of about per cent of its capacity, and prices were lower. In the face of this the corporation is expected to show earnings of between $39,000,000 and 40,000,000. This good showing is due largely to the reduction in operating costs, The copper market is practically at a standstill, with comparatively little buying on the part of either domestic or foreign consumers. The slump in copper prices abroad has unsettled the situation, although there was a recovery of 7s in the price of foreign metal yesterday. Transactions in London over the lest three days have amounted to between 25,000,000 and 80,000, pounds. It is supposed that a large amount of the copper exported from this country to Europe last month was gold in the open market at the best prices. it would bring. Copper producers are quoting 12% cents a und for electrolytic copper, although sales ave been reported at 12% cents a pound. On his return from his fishing trip in Lab- rador. James J. Hill made the prediction that if the country is left alone everything will come out all right. Honestly conducted busi- ress should not a with politics. Mr. Hill was ‘inclined to discount the re- to the crops and the effect n the country’s prosperity e@ stories about land apecu- orthwest are exaggerations.

se- local Liquidation in United Railways curities was continued on the Stock Exchange Friday. Thirty shares of the common stock of that corporation sold at $12 a share, a new low record price. More was of- fered at that figure, with $11% bid. The preferred issue declined to $68%, 62 shares changing hands at that figure. Rumors of an early decision in the mill tax suit were revived. Just how much the United Railways Co. will be required to pay into the city treasury if an adverse decision is rendered is a matter of uncertainty. The municipal authorities figure it will be nearly $1,000,000, while estimates of other authorities are much more conservative. United Railways 4 per cent bonds were unchanged. In connection with the slump in United Railways common, attention is directed to the fact that about 75 per cent of the common stock issue, or $17,000,000 of the $24,000,000 total issue, is held by the North American Co. That the present liquidation is by small holders is a universal conclusion in brokerage circles. The North American interests chased the stock at $23 a share. - Outside of United Railways, the local market is steady, with a moderate de- mand for high-grade issues. ; At the present price United Railways preferred yields the investor approxi- mately 7 per cent. The earnings of the company are good and, according to one financial authority, there is no dan- ger that the dividend will be changed. TODAY’S QUOTATIONS ST. LOUIS, July 15. ___ Bid. Asked pur-

CLIMBS 10 NEW Wild Rush to Buy Follows— Sensational Crop-Dam- age Reports.

MODERN MILLER. Threshing winter wheat contin- ues to be delayed by frequent rains in many sections, especially east of the Mississippi and south of the Ohio rivers. In the Southeast wheat is sprouting in the shock. Elsewhere threshing is generally progressing, and an increased movement is looked for next week. The yield in Kansas is turning out well in both quantity and quality.

It was a run away market in wheat today, prices at times rising In a sen- sational manner, backed by a big for- eign and domestic buying demand. Record prices on the movement were scored in all domestic markets, while for the first time in many days foreign markets reflected uneasiness over the general situation. It was dry and hot in the Canadian and domestic Northwest and the “kill- ers’’ were sensationally active in_ de- stroying the remainder of the spring wheat crop. The foreign “destroyers” were active in Russia, while in the unimportant sec- tions of the winter wheat belt a few ‘killers’? were revived by talk of sprout- ing in stack end a delayed movement. The Argentine crop has yet to be visited by the victorious band of ‘“‘crop killers’ now active the world over. It is understood that “grasshoppers” will be the weapons of destruction in the Argentine after the Russian crop is destroyed. This is ‘a little inside in- formation. There was a rush to buy in all mar- kets, when the bell tapped. Chicago July sold at $1.09 against $1.0665%, the close Thursday; Sept. at $1.07%, against $1.04%4, and Dec. at $1.087%, against $1.06%. — Minneapolis Sept. touched $1.16, com- pared with $1.13, Thursday’s close; Dec., $1.14%, against $1.11%. St. Louis July rose over 2c, at $1.05%, Sept. to $1.06% and Dec. to $1.07%. Receiving houses in Chicago are not getting the offerings of new wheat ex- pected. Hedging sales there are on & moderate scale. Kansas City is getting a large run. The cash market was quoted at a decline in that market. This was offset by St. Louis prices showing an advance of over 3c since last Friday, because of active demand and light movement of new crop. Liverpool reflected anxiety over the outlook and was a big buyer on Amert- can and Canadian cables of unfavorable crop conditions. Cash wheat in Liverpool was 3@4% d higher. Argentine shipments were light and Russia again sent alarm- ing damage reports. Danubian and Rus- sian offers were scarce and firmly held. Foreigners now expect a very short Canadian crop. The Continent continues to absorb cargoes arriving which sold at 3@9d advance. Argentine wheat shipments this week were 896,000 bu. against 1,416,000 bu. last week and 1,632,000 bu. last year. Since Jan. 1 to date shipments were 41,922,000 bu. against 86,232,000 bu. last year. Indian wheat shipments this week were 840,000 bu.; last year 2,664,000 bu. Minneapolis receipts of wheat today were 166 cars; last week 104; last year 78; two years ago, 127. Duluth cars were 14, last week 46, last year 22, two years ago &, last week 34, last year 57. Snow's weekly review says: Winter wheat harvest approaching completion. Some loss from wet harvest and sprout- ing in shock in Kentucky, Southern IIll- nois and Missouri. Threshing just be- ginning. Limited number of returns in Ohio average 15 bu, Illinois 13 bu and Missouri 16 bu. Some rain in Northwest, but not gen- eral where most needed. Little possi- bility of much improvement. Crop not filling right, even where conditions have been best. Nothing has occurred to justify any increase in estimates.’’ Local receipts of wheat 49,929 bu, of which 1524 sacks, 16 cars local and 22 through. Last year 658,636 bu, or 4 cars local and 4 through. Kansas City receipts of wheat were 227,600 bu, against 80,550 last year; ship- iments 117,600 bu, against 6800 last year. Total primary receipts of wheat were 642,785 bu, against 263,241 bu last year; shipments were 316,175 bu, against 1(4,- 506 iast year. Liverpool futures closed 2%d up, Ant- werp 1%c up, Berlin 1%c up and Buda- pest 1%c up. Prices were carried to the highest point on estimates placing the spring vield in the three big states at 13.- 000,000 bu and reports saying settlers in Western Canada were leaving their lands, having no crops to harvest. Broomhall estimates world's: ship- ments of wheat this week, exclusive of American, at 5,200,000 bu. A late cable to Ware-Leland says: “Advices received Indicate prospects in Russia are for crop equal to last year’r. Old stocks of wheat there are large.” Bradstreets export wheat and flour this -week, 1,190,000 bu; last week, 1,568,- 000 bu; last year, 1,468,000 bu; two years ago, 1,482,000"bu.
