Fair and cool Saturday; northeast winds, velocity about 10 miles an hour, calming toward evening. Capt. Thomas S. Baldwin, who has set 56 p. m. Saturday as the time for his aeroplane flight of the St. Louis river front, arranged by the Post-Dis- patch, went to the North St. Louis aviation field Friday morning to com- plete setting up his machine, ‘Red Devil.’ He found the work practically | finished by his two mechanicians an pronounced the biplane as thoroughly air-worthy as it has been in his al- most daily flights this summer at Min- eola, Long Island. When Capt. Baldwin was informed 3 the weather man’s prediction that Raturday would be fair with light winds, calming toward evening he ex- claimed: “Fine, Ull fly tomorrow!” Signal flags, following a code described elsewhere in the Post-Dis- patch, will tell the public Saturday afternoon whether Capt. Baldwin finds it possible to carry out his program. High wind or heavy and continuous rain would prevent the river flight. Field flights might be given when the river flight could not. The flags shown on street cars and at designated points will serve as bulletins of the latest plane, All field flights, and the start of the river flight, will be made at the North St. Louis aviation field, east of Bellefontaine Cemetery. The field ia reached by the Broadway cars di- rect, or by the Taylor, Sarah and Rellefontaine lines by walking through O’Fallonm Park or over Birch- er avenue, north of the park. All flights will be free to the public. President MoCulloch of the United Railways Co. said Friday that all the ears that could run on the two tracks of the Broadway line would be in serv- ice on that line Saturday afternoon. Extra cars will also be run on the Tay- lor, Sarah and Bellefontaine lines. Routes for Automobiles. North St. Louis has several fine ‘asphalt streets which offer attractive routes for automobiles going to the field. A special space has been provided for autos on the grounds. For automobile drivers who wish to avoid the sometimes congested traffic on Broadway, Street Commissioner Tra- villa Friday outlined the following routes from various parts of the cily to the aviation field: From downtown, north on Ninth street to Salisbury, thence on Elev- enth to Broadway, north to Hum- boldt avegue; from the Central West End and South Side, Grand avenue, Lee and Warne avenues to O’Talion Park, through the park to Broadway; from further west, via Newstead and Pope avenues to O'Fallon Park and through the park to Broadway, or via Union and Ber- nays avenues and Calvary avenue to Broadway, then south to Hum- boldt. Autos turn in at Humboldt avenue, 7200 north, and run east to reserved space. The best pjace to see the river flight will be along the river front, on cither side of the Mississippi, or cr Bads Bridge. Capt. Baldwin in- tends to fly from his starting point, about 8900 north, to a point opposite the foot of Arsenal sti , 83100 south, a distance of 100 city biocks. Te Derncend on East Side. He will fly overland from the field te a point somewhere above the Mer- chants’ Bridge and will follow the river for the rest of the eight-mile course to the east side landing of the Cahokia ferry. There he expects to deacend and, reascending 10 or 15 minutes later, to fly back to the field. If he should decide not to fly back, the ferryboat would carry his machine | back to St. Louis. ' He expects to fly at a height of several hundred feet, so as to clear the Merchants’, McKinley and Eads bridges bya good margin, and to make a speed of not less than 46 miles an hour. This high speed is made necessary by the heavy build of his biplane and by his own weight, a little more than £00 pounds, After inspecting the “Red Devil’ at the aviatibn field, Capt. Baldwin re- _ tirned downtown Friday morning to _members of the Citizens’ .m! “es R . .a7 eS og oe anguy PAGES TODAY ST.LOUIS POST-DISPATCH Only Evening Paper in St. Louis With the Associated Press News Service. —————— ee mn re ee ee ee mem ae ee ee VOL. 63. .NO. 20. en ea at —_—— _ ee ey eancaiince DECKER S FREED HOW YOU MAY KNOW BALDWIN FLIGHTS ARE ON Signa! flags will be displayed Sat- urduy, beginning at noon, on street cars and at designated places in BSt. Lovis and East St. Louls, according to the following code: Red flag—‘‘Flights To- day.’’ Blue flag—‘‘River Flight Today.’’ White flag—‘‘No Flight | Today.’ Places where large flags will be displayed: Downtown—Post-Dispatch office, Postoffice, City Hall, Harbor office at foot of Market street, Court House.

Henry Favre, a truck gardener on the Olive Street road. west of St. Louis, de claring that Mrs. Mary Cardere had been pursuing him for many weeks in an effort to marry him, obtained a war- rant from Justice Werremeyer in Clay- ton I"riday for her arrest, The immediate cguse of the warrant, according to his statement, is that Mrs. Cardere attacked him with a club Thursday night when he repeated his oft-repeated refusal to become her hus- band. Mrs. Cardere is 48 years old, 5 feet 8 inches tall, and buxom. Favre is 9, 5 feet & inches tall and-weighs 130 pounds. Mrs. Cardere formerly was employed by one of Favre's neighbors; and ob- tained permission from Favre to store her furniture in a building on Favre's place. A few weeks ago she lost her employment and moved into the bulld- ing. She has been living there since. Bach day, according te Favre's state- ment, to Constable Bode, Mrs. Cardere has wooed him. He has persistently re- fifsed to wed her, he says. A week ago, he asked her to move out, and she re- plied she would when she sold her fur- niture. She then placed a sign on the building ‘“‘Furniture for sale."’ Favre said that whenever a buyer would appear the woman would run into the woods and hide. Thursday evening Mrs. Cardere again repeated her proposal and Favre quar- reléd with her, he says. She attacked him with a club, he charges.

A dray horse ttrned acrobat and danced bareback on the spinal column of a mule for several minutes Friday morning, after both had fallen into a sewer, which caved in at 124 Ferry street. The mule objected obstinately and by kicks and lunges succeeded in dislodging its equine rider. They were extricated three hours later with a der- rick, but not before the mule had nearly strangled itself with its bridle. The team was attached to a wagon loaded with 1000 fire bricks and was driven by Herman Fischer of 6221 Blair avenue. They were nearing Second and Ferry streets when the rear wheels of the wagon dropped through the street into a 15-foot sewer. Fischer saved him- seif by jurmping to the street as the wagon went down. The ,hole was 10 feet wide. he weight of the brick drew the ‘horse and mule down after the wagon, but they pawed at the edges of the chasm until they worked their way half around it. Then the animals plumped into the hole, with the mule beneath and the horse on its back. Their con- necting harness was broken by the fall. The horse was attempting to stand on its hind legs on the mule’s back and clamber out, when the Missouri emblem, rearing and kicking, tumbled its rider back into the pit. In the struggle the mule’s bridle became wrapped aroun its neck, so that it seemed for a time to be suffocating. But it released itself and horse and mule, side by side but facing opposite ways, stood lowering in a foot and a half of sewage until res- cued. The mouth of the hole was narrow, but wnderground it widened like a bell, leaving plenty of room for the wagon and team. Both animals were consider- ably scratched when they were hauled out. A block away workmen were repairing a cave-in of the same sewer. Residents say that the sewer is too small for the volume of water passing through it, and that its walls have been weakened by the strain. M’CULLOGH THINKS. WHAT? LET GEORGE TELL YOU North End Business Men Hope It Is About Car Extension. If thought could lay street car rails, the Grand avenue line would have been extended from the’ Water Tower to North Broadway long ago. For mem- bers of the North St. Louis Business Men’s Association have been thinking very hard for some time about the need for this extension. But even though thought has its lim- itations, the business men seemed glad to hear, at their meeting Thursday night, that President McCulloch of the United Railways Co., when approached by a committee requesting the exten- sion, had replied: “T am thinking.” That was all. He did not say wheth- er he was thinking of the North St. Louls matter, or thinking when the Wellston .ine would be finished, or when a subway would be begun. He just said he was thinking. The North St. Louls men hope Capt. McCulloch meant he was thinking about their request, and they are encouraged, since it is necessary for him to think about it before he acts on it. If he only thinks hard enough, they believe he will see that the extension fs need- ed, and maybe will conclude that it fwould pay the company to make it.. At preseit North Broadway is prac- tically cut off from the West End, The proposed extension, with transfer priv- lleges, would connect the two sections and would aid, the business men be- Neve, in the growth of the section, The Post-Dispatch is.the only evening mewspalfed in St. Louis that receives or pub- lishes news gathered by the Associated Press. | Me . , ine % ; | pur ges : oe geet OP Mfa., eeineee |HORSE AND MULE WITH WAGON IN CAVE-IN OF FIFTEEN-FOOT SEWER ON FERRY STREET gen ORO Spy Re ner, en ae Soe Bier ye acces ie eae A —) *.« * : AP he, TR Se hae » ve Fo PR eed Whale Sere ne Fras Bote Beattie hal ote) ey ¢ ee A Beg ae: Oe Se * oy .

Miss Edith Anderson’s twentieth birth- day party continues a topic of discus- slon among tradesmen, some of whom say bills are still unpaid for the cele- bration. One of the creditors is G. C. Meinig, manager of the Excelsior Automobile Co., who repeated Friday that Miss An- derson owed him $22 for the rent of an automobile on her birthday. He said that Manager Freudenstein of the Pen- dieton Garden had tola him a bill for a $40 supper there was still unpaid. Miss Anderson said one of her guests, & young man, ordered the auto, and that she was not responsible. She de- clared that the supper bill had been paid the night of her birthday, a week ago. Manager Freudenstein could not be reached for verification of this. There is a dispute between Miss An- derson and Dorr & Zeller, caterers, She says she has paid it. Manager A. W.

SENATOR | IS .- SILENT Goes Back to Summer Home When Invitation to Banquet Is Recalled. Special to the Post-D!spatch. CHICAGO, Sept. 9.—Political lead- ers express the opinion that the snub udministered to United States Senator Lorimer by Col. Roosevelt yesterday and the subsequent speech by the ex- President in which he assailed the Legislature in connection with Lor!i- mer’s election will have a material effect on Illinois State politics. Senator Lorimer has gone back to his summer home at Fox Lake, whence he came yesterday afternoon expect- ing to be one of the guests at the Hamilton Club dinner. Col. Roose- velt announced that he would not be present at the affair-if Lorimer were to be there, and the invitation to the Senator was recalled. The Sena- tor would neither discuss this snub nor would he talk of the hot speech which followed it. : The blow was a severe one to Lorimer. It came on the eve of the investigation of the Senate Committee into the charges that his election was obtained through corruption, and just at the time the jury in the Lee O’Neil Browne case was retiring to consider a_ verdict. Browne is accused of buying Demo- cratic votes for Lorimer. The Senator is a popular member of the Hamilton Club and the incident is Mkely to hurt the club. The Attack on Jack-Potters. Col. Roosevelt said in part: Ishave been reading the reports of the investigations of the two state’s attorneys, which resulted in the in- dictment of four members of the Legislature, and together with what I have read the reports of the con- iessions of -four other members of the Legislature. I was advised to- day by a very warthy friend not to talk on this matter, pecause it was a delicate subject, and he added that no one had been convicted. Read the confessions of the four — men. Read what was developed by the two state’s attorneys, one be- longing to one party and one be- longing to the other, about the four men against whom they secured in- dictments, and about other men also. Read that, and I defy any honest man of intelligence not to come to the conclusion that the Legislature whose doings have been expose was guilty of the foulest and basest cor- ruption, and, therefore, of the most infamous treason to American insti- tutions. ROOSEVELT WANTED IN. GRAFT INQUIRY As Governor of New York He Signed Car BHI Under Investigation. By Leased Wire From the New York Burean of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Sept. 9.—There strong probability that on his return from the West, Theodore Roosevelt will be called as a witness before the legis- is a lative committee which Is investigating allegations of graft at Albany. It was Col.’ Roosevelt who, while Governor of this State tn 1900, signed the New York transportation bill, a measure which gave the various traffic companies cof- bined in this one company the right to use any or all of the streets of New York. Testimony already brought out shows that many legislators, prominent,among them Senator Goodsell, former Assem- blyman Louis Bedeil, former Assembly- man James T. Rogers, former Speaker Nixon, former Senators Green and Aulds and others associated with them, made large sums of money by specu- lating in the stock of thig company just petore the bil® became a 30-day measure and was at the mercy of the Rules Committee, of which Mr. Bedell was a member. This speculation kept up un- til after the bill had passed and Mr. Bedell testified yesterday that he even bought some of the stock while the bill was awaiting Gov. Roosevelt’s signa- ture. A telegram from Mr. Bedell to’ Elling- wood & Cunningham, dated April 20, 1900, wag identified by the former yes- terday as having been sent by him. It read: “Tt think it quite doubtful if the bill will be signed today.’’ “That was on April 20," said Mr. Bruce, counsel for the committee. ‘The bill was signed on the 2th. Who was Governor at that time?” “Theodore Roosevelt,” answered Mr. Bedell. In commenting on this testimony later, Assemblyman Edwin A. Merritt, chair- man of the committee, said: “You couldn’t get a bill like that transportation bill signed today if you used a Krupp gun.” So many peculiar incidents about this bill, the manner of its passage and how it came to be signed, have developed since the inquiry began, that {ft {s be- lieved Col." Roosevelt will be asked to testify and clear up some of the points which remain a mystery because of the bad memortes of all of the witnesses examined thus far. ) LEXINGTON, Ky., Sépt. 9%.—The condition of James R.

DEMOCRATS MEET FRipa Y EVENING, SEPTEMBER 9, 1910.

10 PIGK MAN FOR APPELLATE COURT Delegates at Convention Rep- resent 28 Wards and 32 Counties.

SEVEN IN THE FIELD

W. C. Bryan and C. W. Bates Lead in-City to Succeed Goode.

Democratic committeemen from the 28 wards of St. Louis, and chairmen of 32 county committees, met Friday at the American Hotel to choose a candidate for the short term in the St. Louis Court of Appeals, made vacant by Judge Richard L. Goode’s resignation and temporarily filled by the appointment of oe S. Caulifield. A lively contest at the afternoon ses- Sion between the two city candidates and the five from outside the city was in prospect, and it was predicted that several ballots would be required to nominate. Eighteen of the city committeemen were said to be pledged to W. Christy Bryan on the first ballot. Others were expected to support Charles W. Bates, whose nomination was urged by a del- egation of lawyers, headed by O'Neill Ryan, Daniel Dillon and T. R. Bland. Five Outside Candidates. The five candidates from outside the city were: B. F. Marbury of Farming- ton, W, W. Frey of Mexico, Marsh Ar- nold of Southeast Missourl, T. R. R. Ely of New Madrid County and V. L. Drain of Shelbyville. Marbury and Frey were said to be sure of the votes of their respective congressional districts, the Thirteenth and the Ninth. Judge H. W. Johnson of Montgomery City presided at the opening, and E. P. Rosenberger of Montgomery City was ,chosen temporary chairman, and Ed- ward Wright of St. Louis, temporary secretary. An opinion from Attorney- General Major, setting forth the legal manner of making the nomination, was read by State Senator Kinney. The district was formerly Democratic, but since it was divided to. make room for the Springfield Court of Appeals, it has been doubtful, and the two judges elected since Goode have been Repub- licans. Caulfield, appointed by Gov. Hadley immediately upon Goode's res- ignation, is expected to be.the Repub- lican nominee. Convention Takes Recess. After appointing committees on cre- dentials and organization and permanent order of business, the convention ad- journed until 1:30 p. m. There are dele- gates in the convention from eight con- gressional districts, and each district, except the Second, which has but one county in the district, was given repre- sentation on all committees, + The Credentials Committee follows: J. G. Gose, First District; William Far- rell, Second District; Ed A. Glenn, Ninth District; H. W. Fay, Tenth District; T. J. Leonard, Eleventh District; John Clooney, Twelfth District; R. S.

Young says, both men lost their hats in flight, and both hats proved to be black derbies, and b@th of 7% size. Both cases were characterized by such confusions in identification as to make the police skeptical as to whether there is such a fact as ‘“‘positive’ identifica- tion. Karner identified a rogue’s gal- lery picture of Timothy O'Connell, an ex-convict, as that of his assailant. Later, in the presence of O'Connell, KKarner identified another man, William Milton Garner, as the robber. Both men are innocent, the police believe, al- though Garner is held in jail because of the identification. Albert Julien, wandering stereotyper from Chicago, was identified by J. J. Casimerie, negro porter on the Over- land Express, as the robber and mur derer. Edward Alexander, a car _ in- spector and a sober man of middle age, testified before the Coroner that Julie was in the rear vestibule of the train as it left the Union Station yards. Yet Julien proved an alibi, and was exon- erated by Griffin, whom the robber compelled to pass the hat and go tiirough the pockets of the passengers Both Men Released. Julien and Freund were released Thursday night, after the Coroner’s jury determined that Wine was killed by a person whose identity is not estab- lished.

It was Congressman Clark’s assigned @uty to welcome home Missourians who had strayed from the borders of the “Show Me” State. He welcomed them all right; but was inclined to ask why they ever went away. He reproached his hearers for permitting Missouri to take a back seat, as he said it had done. *“‘Missouri has taken a back seat too long,”’ he said. ‘We have done the work and the other fellows have got the glory. Missouri has never had a presi- dent, a vice-president, a justice of the Supreme Court or a speaker of the House. It is time we had all of these offices, and I’m going to see to it that we get one of them right away.” Forest Fire Near Yellowstone Park. BOZEMAN, Mont., Sept. 9.—Forest fires are said to have broken out afresh on the Bailey Creek, just out- side of the Yellowstone Park and on the head waters of the West Galla- tin River.

Paul was on his way to his work in the garage of the Mississippi Valley Automobile Co., Thursday morning, when he broke the rim of the front wheel. He remembered that his fa- ther had said, when a tire was punc- tured two or three weeks ago, that if anything went wrong with the bicycle again the, boy need not come home. He did not appear at the garage, where his father is also employed, and did not return home.

Simultaneously with a sharp break in United Railways issues on the local Stock Exchange Friday rumors were current in the financial district that the 5-per-cent dividend on the preferred etock would be reduced. Railways preferred declined abruptly from $59.75 a share to $58, the lowest price at which it has ever been sold, At nearly 10 per cent, or almost double that of other leading local issues. About three hundred shares changed hands Friday and a total of 700 for the last five days. There has been no ex- planation of the heavy selling. : President McCulloch told a Post#Dis- patch reporter that he knew nothing of the rumored dividend cut. “There have been no developments that I know of warranting this liquida- tion,’’ said Presidnt McCulloch. Stock Breaks at Opening. : Before the exchange opened ~ Friday, brokers were offering Railways pre- ferred at $59 a share, or 75 cents a share below Thursday’s closing price. The first transaction was 25 shares~ at this figure. There was a quick slump to $58, and 10 shares changed hands at that price. Sales of 100 shares were made at $57.50 to $57.25. From this point the downturn to $56 was rapid. Toward the close there. was a slight fally, $56.50 being asked. Twenty-five shares of the common were disposed of at $12. More was of- fered at this price, with no takers. The final bid on the common was 10%, with 11 a share asked. The 4 per cent bonds of the company were fairly steady. Banking and other issues held firm. The North American company owns $17,000,000 of the $25,000,000 issue of United Railways common, for which it paid $23 a share. It was hinted in some quarters that the North American company was willing that the dividend on ‘the .pre- ferred be reduced or entirely suspended, but there is no confirmation of this re- port. Earnings Maintained, Railway shares have steadily de- clined in the past year, although the company’s earnings have been well maintained. It sold at $57.25 in the 1907 firancial flurry, from which it ad- vanced gradually to $76 a share a year Its high record price is $87.

BENEDICT FOOLS FRIENDS BY MARRYING AT 4:45 A. M. Bridegroom-Elect Goes to Get License, Forgets to Take Along Bride-Elect. Friends of Miss May Shelley of 3101 Thomas street and Chester B. Dolen of 610 Forest avenue, Tuxedo, learned Fri- day that they had been married at a special mass at 4:45 a. m. last Tuesday at St. Alphonsus (Rock) Church. When Dolen called Sunday night at Miss Shelley’s home, they discussed the wedding planned for November and de- cided that it was too long to wait, also that they would like to “hbeat’’ their friends’ plans for celebrating the event. Dolen went to Clayton Monday to get the license, but forgot that it was neces- | sary to take Miss, Shelley along. The clerk refused to issue the license and Dolen returned to St. Louis for her. When they reached Clayton the license office had closed, Monday being Labor day, but the clerk issued the license at his home. When they called on Father M. J. Ryan to perform the ceremony, he said that, as the banns had not been pub- lished, a dispensation would be neces- sary. Father Ryan arranged matters and agreed to perform the ceremony at a special mass early Tuesday.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 9.— The growth of the poppy plant, from which is made the opium that has paralyzed the development of the (Chinese race, has been almost com- pletely stopped in two provinces of Manchuria, Hellung Chang and Kirin.

HUSBAND LIVES SEVEN YEARS WITH WIFE HE HAD DIVORCED Woman Finds Out About It Dur- ing Quarrel and Has Decree Set Aside. By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Sept. 9.—Louis Schwartz, a well-to-do merchant. of 17 Ludlow street, dived, seven years with Dora Schwartz, his wife, after the Supreme Court had granted a decree of absolute divorce to him. One night Schwartz fell sick ‘and his wife believed hé was about to die. She did what she could to relieve him of his distress, but her _husband’s sister inter- fered. A quarret followed soon after- ward and Schwartz pulled out a time- worn document and, pointing to it, said: “That's a decree of divorce I got from you, Dora, about seven years ago. We haven’t been man and wife since Feb- ruary, 1904.’’ . “Divorce!’" gasped Mrs. Schwartz in astonishment. ‘You got a divorce? Im- possible, you couldn’t do it without me hearing something about it.” Schwartz calmly pointed to the court's decree, signed by former Justice Barrett. Then he began to remove the furniture and ‘left Mrs. Schwartz to shift for her- self with her 6-year-old son. The wife, who charged fraud, sued in the Supreme Court to have Schwartz’s divorce set aside. Edwin D.

FRIDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 9, 1910. ——— REPUBLICANS STAY AWAY AND BLOCK Absence of Three Members Leaves Committee Without Necessary Quorum. MEETING IS HELD Five Sign Criticism of Bal- linger and One Makes an Independent Finding. \ By Associated Press. MINNEAPOLIS, Sept. 9.—But_ six members of the Ballinger-Pinchot In- vestigating Committee, one less than a quorum, were present when the ses- sions opened today. Senator Suther- land of Utah and two other Republi- cans, Representatives Samuel VW. Mec- Call of Massachusetts and Edwin Denby of Michigan refused to attend. The failure of the three members to attend when the session was opened was decided on last night, following the ar- rival of Representative Denby. Denby had declared that the action of five members who adopted a_ resolution Wednesday of Representative Madison of Kansas, an insurgent Republican, which charged that Secretary Ballinger was unfit and should be removed, was the ‘“‘most extraordinary, indefensible and unjudicial act that partisan politics could devise."’ Meeting Called to Order. In view of that, he said, it would be absurd to meet with those members when they already had promulgated their decision. Messrs. Sutherland and McCall took a similar view and failed to put in an ap- pearance. Chairman Nelson, the only Republican member besides Madison, the insurgent Republican, was present and the meeting was regularly called to order. In addition to Madison and Nelson, the Democratic members in at- tendance were: Senators Purcell, North Dakota; Fletcher, Florida; and Repre- sentatives Ollie M. James of Kentucky and James M. Graham of Illinois. Soon after entering the committee room, the Democratic members affixed their signatures to their findings, which condemned the actions of Ballinger as a public officer and vindicated Gifford Pinchot, former chief of the Forestry Department. Independent Report Prepared. Madison prepared an independent re- port, which favors Pinchot, and brought it to the committee room. Shartly after the executive session be- gan, the secretary of the committees, Paul Sleman, was designated sergeant- at-arms and directed to find the ab- sentees, if possible, and bring them in. In view of the positive declarations of Messrs. Denby and others that they would not attend, his mission seemed futile. mality. JPEN SHOP POSSIBLE RESULT , Trouble Threatens to Interfere With Construction of the New Cathedr4l. A strike of the art glass and plate glass workers threatens to interfere with the work on the New Cathedral and other large buildings in process of con- struction. Several conferences between committees of the Glass Dealers’ Asso- ciation and the Associated Glass Work- ers of America at the Building Industries headquarters have failed to settle the dispute. It is estimated that 300 men stopped work Sept. 1. The men asked for an increase in wages of approxi- mately 20 per cent, and an eight-hour workday. At present the men work nine hours a day and average from $18 to $20 a week. At a conference Thursday the employ- erg issued an ultimatum that unless the strike is speedily settled it will be necessary to conduct their plants as ‘open shops.’’ A final conference will be held either Saturday or Monday.

Crane, who was in charge of the river steamboat, City of Saltillo, which sank at Glen Park four months ago with a loss of 12 lives, was notified Friday that his license as master and pilot had been suspended for six months. The suspension followed an investi- gation of the accident by United States Steamboat Inspectors Gordon and Macdonald. In the findings of the inspectors, Capt. Crane is not charged with neglect of duty or mismanage- ment, but the inspectors say he made conflicting statements in giving evi- dence in the investigation to fix the responsibility for the wreck. Capt. Crane is now in charge of the City of Savannah, owned by the St Louis & Tennessee River Packet Co., which owned the Saltillo. Capt. Crane will appeal his case to Supervising Inspector Dunn.

____5T. LOUIS POST. DISPATCH. ie FRIDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 9, 1910. ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH. ———-=-_—_—— 244.00 000 STRIKING MINERS BACK AT WORK IN ILLINOIS -- Peoria Scale Conceded, Men Will Get 3 Cents a Ton More. INCREASE IS GENERAL Operators Agree to Pay Shot- Firérs, Formerly Paid by Diggers. CHICAGO, Sept. 9.—The strike of Illinois coal miners, which has been in effect for 23 weeks, came to an end when a committee of the Illinois Coal Operators’ Association signed an agreement adopting a wage scale out- lined by the Peoria miners’ conven- tion. The men will return to work Saturday morning. The adoption of the Peorla scale is ~ hela by the miners as a complete victory. It carries a general increase of 3 cents a ton throughout the State, an increase of 5 cents in the northern fields and 6 cents in Frank- lin and Williamson counties. The operators also agreed to an in- crease of 5.55 per cent for all day laborers and in the future will pay the wages of shot firers, formerly paid by the miners. This will in- crease the cost to the operators be- tween 2 and 3 cents for each ton. The wage increase, together with new safety appliances which must be in- etalled in compliance with a recent- ly passed law will increase the min- ing cost about 12 cents a ton.. ._ Seventy-two thousand men. quit work when the strike was declared. Since that time 28,000 have returned to work as the individual mine own- ere signed the scale. WEIGHT INSPECTOR ASKS A LAW PERMITTING TESTS OF SCALES Device Condemned in Massachu- setts Is Declared as Honest as Any Made. An ordinance which is being prepared by Inspector of Weights and Measures tee Anderson for introduction in the Munici- pal Assembly in October will give him authority to inspect and test the com- puting charts of certain types of scales now largely used in St. Louis. The Post-Dispatch, in an article pub- lished June 28, 1910, referred to a certain type of computing scale as having been legislated out of existence in Massa- chusetts. This scale is largely used in Bt. Louis. The Inspector of Weights and icons | ures of Boston states that the scale in question now meets all of the require- ments of the Massachusetts law, and fa in general use in that State. The manufacturers of the scale hive placed in the possession of the Post-Dispatch evidence tending to show that the scale fs accurate, both as to its weighing and computing features, when honestly used. The. original story referred to a test of the scalé said to have been made by the Treasury Department of Massa- chusetts. This test, according to the manufacturers, has been made-in va- rious courts and criticised by judges as a dishonest use of the scale. In the United States Court at Omaha, in a suit against the Mayor and Sealer of that city, as defendants, such a test is re- ferred to by the master in the following language: “In the operation of the scale a dis- honest dealer can, by putting a quantity on the platform less than two ounces, or ‘jess than a multiple of two ounces, bring into his view the figures repre- senting the value of full two ounces or such multiple of two ounces; but neither the indicated weight in the scale, for which the figures are the computed value, nor the figures themselves will rise to the line on which the scale bal- ances when empty, unless full two ounces or the required multiple is on the platform, nor can any manipulation of the scale make them so. “No scale can be devised which will prevent dishonest weighing and dishon- est weighing cannot be practiced with wthis scale with any greater facility or success than with any other, as what- ever is done must be done with the weight actually and plainly registered in the view of the purchaser—an exact @uplicate (so far as weight is con- ew cerned) of what is before the seller.”’ * en ee et a (geaieht. instead of by measure. bill, Met: the me The Betail Grocers’ Association is also preparing a bill requiring practically all vegetables and fruits to be sold by If this which Henry.

ST. PAUL, Minn., Sept. 9.—The Na- tional Conservation Congress adopted a platform placing the seal of its approval on national control of national resources and adjourned. A threatened fight on the part of the State Conservation Commissioners to place the name of President Taft in the platform along with that of Theodore Roosevelt as the great friend of con- servation did not materialize on the floor. Under vigorous use of the gavel it did not even get started. The follow- ing were chosen: President, Henry Wallace, Des Moines, Io.; secretary, Thomas R. Shipp, Indian- apolis; treasurer, D. A. Latchaw, Kan- sas City. Gifford Pinchot and J. B. White of Kansas City declined to be nominated for the presidency and Mr. Wallace was not opposed.

GRESS IN SUIT GAINS hid WIFE Servant Admits on Stand Husband, Suing for Divorce, | Drew Up Petition.

ASKED $313 AS A SPY

Former Maid Testifies She Head of House. Jessie Cable, a negress formerly em- ployed as maid in- the A. B. Ellison home, 6568 Bartmer avenue, sald Fri- day she would appeal her suit for $313 against Mrs. Nellie Ellison. The money, she says, is due her for services in an- noying Ellison, shadowing him, and on loans to her mistress. Mrs. Ellison says she owes the negress only $49.22, and Justice Spaulding gave a verdict for that amount Thursday afternoon. Mrs. Ellison is defending a divorce suit in which her husband names trades- people. She was indignant while the negro maid was testifying against her, and took the stand, attired in duck and a smart feathered turban, to contradict the servant. The maid was not tnstructed to irri- tate HBllison, Mrs, Ellison said, nor to follow him. She denied that she had borrowed money from the negress, or that she had promised to pay for let- ting her into the house without Elli- son’s knowledge and concealing from him her (Mrs. Ellison’s) whereabouts. Before Mrs. Ellison took the wit-

Ellison discharged her in June 1909, because she shadowed him at Mrs. Ellison’s behest, but that she was taken back into service later by Mrs. Ellison. She said she had to take Mrs. Ellison’s meals to her room so she could avoid Ellison, and that Mrs. Ellison borrowed money from her on one occasion to buy agskirt asa Christ- mag presser, for Paulina, her grown daughter, and $5 on another occasion to buy a pair of shoes, The negress gives dates. Husband Drew Tp Bill. ~ From September, 1909, to Jan. 80, 1910, when she left the employ of the .Ellisons, “to keep from getting mixed Up any more din the Ellisons* affairs,” the negress received no pay, she testi- fied, ig Campbell Cummins, representing Mrs. Bllison, brought out on cross-exami- mation of the negress that Ellison had @rawn up the petition m the suit. The negress said he drew it from mem- oranda she supplied, but that he inter- jected certain words and phrases, such as “and others” in the phrase “and paid me to lie to Mr. Ellison and others as.to her whereabouts.” The petition was drawn up in Ellison’s office and at his suggestion, the negress admitted. _, Millison’s suit to divorce his wife is ‘pending, having been set over on ac- count of.the illness of the trial judge. Mra. Ellison is contesting it. —\ 7 eeeeeenee

ILOVDW. BOWERS SOLIGITOR-CENERAL OF U.S. ISDEAD \ Had Been Mentioned as Pos- sible Appointee to Su- preme Bench. By Associated Press. . BOSTON, Sept. 9%-—Solicitor-General Lloyd W, Bowers died here at 11:30 a. m. today of complications arising from an attack of bronchitis. He had been ill about two weeks. Death came suddenly while Mr. Bow- ers was talking with his family. A blood clot in the heart caused almost in- stant death. Mrs. Bowers, a son and the nurse were present. The family has been staying at the Hotel Touraine in

the water for a long time or had been | washed from a cemetery. this city for a fortnight. Mr. Bowers,’ who was 61 years old,

entered the Government service in 1909, geing from Chicago, where he was gen- eral counsel for the Chicago & North- western Railroad. He was formerly president of the Chicago Law Club. It was generally believed he would be elevated to the Supreme bench to fill one of the vacancies. He was a close friend of President Taft, and a member of the same class at Yale.

FIREPROOF SCHOOL BUILDINGS. A most agreeable feature of the opening of the schools is that the danger from fire, due to wooden staircases, has been removed. The Board of Education has carried out the promise made when the subject was revived again last winter .by the Post-Dispatch, and while there is some work yet to be done, the mare dangerous build- ings have been provided with the most modern fireproof staircases or entirely rebuilt. It is a matter of safety which would not ad- mit of the delay necessarily the result of waiting for the completion of the entire program of hav- ing all modern school buildings in the city. Even without the completion of this program, St. Louis is without a rival in the character of its schools, and when the work is done it will be the first city in this respect. ha Le Le» i i A The victory of the progressives in New Hamp- shire was largely a triumph for Winston Churchill. It was literally a “novel” victory for the author of “Coniston.”

La La . a 4 WHAT IS EVIDENCE? s a business man, Mr. M. S. Ayer is easily credible. It is also easily credible that the late Prof. William James is now at peace with himself and all mankind, after realizing that he still has very much to learn, with greater opportunities for learning it now than anyone on the “plane” he lately occupied can imagine. There is no reasonable difficulty in believing this because it ought to be so. But when, as a credible Boston business man, Mr. M. S. Ayer re- ports that he has had this information as a fact from the late Prof. James, communicating as facts of eternity what all may wish to be true, all are thrown back at once on the nature of evi- dence. This is illustrated again at the other extreme when a scientific telegram from California reports the discovery of a group of very ancient skeletons, resembling recent skeletons in most things and aiffering chiefly in having bony projections from the skull, distinctly in the nature of horns. It is a well-known fact of science that living men do occasionally develop “osseous projections” from the skull which in common language are “horns.” It is equally well known that science can explain such “freaks” only as ‘reversions to primitive type.” The tradition of a primitive type of horned men, or fauns and satyrs, is as well known as the tradition of the sea serpent. There are affidavits and signed statements on the appearance of the sea serpent enough, if made in any other connec- tion, to decide any case at law up to the Supreme Court of the United States. But they are not evi- dence. By the same rule, everything credited to Prof. James by Mr. Ayer may be credible without being evidence. We can go on believing as we please, with it or without it. imbee Out of the seven issues raised in the Newfound.- land fisheries question, the United States wing five and Great Britain two, and as both sides are said to be satisfied, the affair may be regarded as one of the best fish stories on record. hp Lip ip i A THE ART OF BED NAKING. Bed making as an art may have a flavor of odd- ity on first suggestion, but reflection will reveal it as a subject too longtheglected and far more essen- tial to the full and rounded feminine education than plumbing or egg selecting or making over bonnets, now given such conspicuous positions in the curricula of the schools. Important as it is we feel that the rules laid down by “Widower” in a letter to the Post-Dispatch are skimpy, inadequate and disappointing. ‘‘Beds,” he writes somewhat testily, “should be aired and shaken and not made up immediately. ‘The mattress should be turned over daily to keep it in shape, and the bottom sheet should be tucked in carefully, that it will not wrinkle or come out.” As a bed does not consist exclusively of a bot- tom sheet and mattress, it will be seen that one attempting to make a bed according to “Widow- er’s” directions would be in a sad plight. The fact of the matter is that “Widower,” having a griev- ance against the bottom sheet, has confined the whole art of bed making to a permanent and secure adjustment of that part of the equipment. This is obviously a fallacious method. To many the annoyance is in the disposition of the upper sheet to crawl. Others find grief in the peripa- tetic tendencies of the blanket and there be some —men—who find making the bed nothing to the unmaking of it preparatory to clambering In. Did “Widower” ever cast an eye over the uninviting expanse of a ded accoutered with a wooden bols- ter, within which the pillows are stowed by day, and a Battenberg mainsail clewed firmly to the posts by hawsers of silk, all covering an equip- ment of sheets, blankets and comforts secured by double hitches about undiscoverable cleats be- twee® mattress and springs? We are sure he didn’t. Otherwise he would have advocated a complete return to the simple life of which an es- sential part is a bed so arranged that it can be opened without knowing the combination or re- sorting to nitroglycerin. But we agree with “widower” that only about one woman in 17 fnows bow to make 6 hed Ant Mt ea

without Sunday, one year.......cceces + 98-08, THE FLIGHTS TOMORROW. . Aviation is still a delicate art. Successful flights even by the most experienced and skill- ful airmen are impossible unless all conditions are favorable. For the flights by Capt. Thomas S Baldwin, under the auspices of the Post-Dis- patch, all arrangements have been made. The conditions are favorable so far as human ef- fort can make them so. As to the weather the conditions are promising. If there is a light wind the chances are that Capt. Baldwin will give a spectacular performance and make the river flight of 15 miles down and back. If there is a breeze he will probably not essay the long flight, but give exhibitions at the aviation field. If the wind is strong or weather conditions 80 unfavorable that flying is impossible, there will necessarily be a postponement. There are three days of flights and three chances for the river achievement. | There is much disappointment that Clifford B.gHarmon could not fulfill his promise to fly here for the. Post-Dispatch. His absence attests the uncertainty of aviation. Since he gave his promise to the Post-Dispatch that he would fly at St. Louis he has had two machines broken. This disappointment is modified by the substitu- tion of that sturdy and experienced airman, Baldwin, whose name has been connected with aeronautics for many years. Balloons, para- chutes and later, dirigibles, ments for the Captain’s displays of skill and daring. Now he has taken to the aeroplane and to it he brings an experience, a determination and a sound judgment which places him in a class alone. His fellow flyers accept his decision as to conditions without question and look to him for the guidance and advice which his years of fighting the air make valuable. Capt. Bald- win has been flying all summer and his machine has stood the most severe tests under varying conditions. We have his word for it that the man, the machine and the field are ready. The people must give close attention to rules of the performance. They must not tempt to go on the aviation field. This striction is not a whim. The man who is to fly knows that the safety of the man on the ground as well as of the man in the air depends on a clear field. If there is danger to either himself or the spectators he will not attempt to leave the ground. This rule is imperative. The signal code has been completed. It will be found with the rules in another column. These rules should be carefully read. Red pennants mean there will be exhibition flights. Blue pennants mean the river flight. White pennants mean “no flights today.” Undoubtedly the levee affords the best chance were all instru- the at- re- to see the river flight. p. m. the best opportunity is given for everyone to get to a point of vantage and there is also the best prospect of a breezeless hour for the performance. Up to this time the people of St. Louis have assurance of some flying that will be interesting in any event, with the promise that there will be one achievement which in spectacular attrac- tiveness will measure up to anything yet on the records of aviation.

The Colonel makes a great hit by denouncing graft in Illinois. But how tremendous would have been the sensation had he said it was mere- ly the customary habit among practical men! = = * — a A MATTER OF TASTE. Mr. Roosevelt would be open to congratulations on his refusal to have Senator Lorimer of Illinois at the dinner in Chicago if his attitude toward “undesirables” had been marked by consistency. But the Mr. Roosevelt who would not sit at the table with Senator Lorimer is the same Mr. Roose- velt who broke bread with Senator Guggenheim in Colorado and took much care that Senator Gug- genheim be supplied with the requisite tin cup. The most striking difference between Lorimer and Guggenheim is that the latter has been “caught with the goods” and the case against Lorimer has proceeded only to the point of sus- picion and unproved accusations. But in the length and breadth of that inclusive classification of supposed undesirables as “probably much bet- ter and certainly nq worse” than the rest of us, how is it that Guggenheim gets the benefit of the doubt and is rated as “probably much better” while Lorimer is classed as much worse? Mr. Roosevelt may plead that it is all a matter of taste. It is.

= = * — a Mr. Taft declined Grahame-White’s offer for an air trip, even his precarious ground seeming pre- ferable in the comparison. = ill ld HOME AND FOREIGN RAILWAYS. Mr. Lane of the Interstate Commerce Commis- sion has just returned from the International Rail- way Conference at Berne. He speaks with exul- tation of the vast superiority of American rail- way traffic over that of Europe; but notes also that in some respects the European railway man- agers are able to teach us lessons well worth the learning. As an evidence of the superiority of our lines, Mr. Lane says: “I have seen more freight moving in a single hour at Chicago, Pittsburg and Jersey City than I saw in an entire month in Europe.” The cause of our superiority, he states, with exact accuracy: “Our railroading system is without parallel because we are living as a nation, while in Burope they live as communities.” That is the whole story. | We have absolute freedom of trade from the Atlantic to the Pacific, from the lakes to the Gulf. Not a single traffic killing custom house

eae ita baleful shadow over the commerce among By fixing the time at 5} | our states. So we flourish. But in Europe the protective tariff system dominates and dwarfs. The continent is cut up into a dozen “protected” nations. The curse of custom houses is over all. Traffic is hampered. Trade is baffled. Commerce is checked. Despite these protective tariff restrictions, Eu- ropean ‘railways, as Mr. Lane notes, manage to pay from 4 to 6 per cent dividends. Evidently their railway financiering differs from ours. They have not produced the bankrupt railways with the multimillionaire managers that our system pro- duces. This is a matter-the Government will have to look into when it undertakes effective supervision of corporations. We excel Europe so much in the management of railway traffic that we should at least rival her success in railway finance. = = —-— Se Mayor Gaynor, his friends say, will accept the Democratic nomination for governor of New York. ‘The rest will be very easy. A... rr. A DISPUTE WELL ENDED. The decision given by the International Court of Arbitration on the Newfoundland fisheries question is said to be satisfactory both to our Government and to that of Great Britain. It is to be hoped the report is true. A dispute over these fisheries has been going on ever since the separation of the United States from the Brtish Empire. Surely it is time to close it up. It is a curious illustration of how national an- tagonisms have been engendered and nourished in the world; that a controversy over a few kits of mackerel, some of it rotten, has at times come near to involving the people of the United States and those of Great Britain in a war that would have cost more than all the Newfoundland fish are worth. Even without a war that fish question has cost us much in the way of diplomatic nego- tiations, investigations, explorations and ban- quets. Never has there been for more than a hun- dred years any kind-of treaty agreement be- tween the United States and Great Britain that did not have some kind of a fuss to begin with and a feast to end with on that subject. Now it is over let us rejoice. Salt mackerel no longer gives a thirst for war as well as water. = = ee Politicians in Illinois have reached the point where they denounce “the blistered tongue of per- jury” but avoid showing their own. = = * — S— -.

(= = * — a ae LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE

‘ Inconsistent Stand-Patter. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The Globe-Democrat is offering in its today's paper the best reasons yet why the country should go Democratic this fall. The Globe says that the activity of Democrats and insurgents is disturb- ing the New York Stock Exchange, and the moneyed interests in general, railroads and other big corporations particularly. The Globe asserts that a Democratic and insurgent majority in the next Congress would attempt to control the rail- roads and other big concerns in the interest of the people, and that this would be a very bad and dangerous thing to do; that these big concerns have long since passed out of the control of Congress or the people, and that the time has now come for the people to understand that they are controlled by the railroads and other big corporations. This is not the exact language of the Globe- Democrat, but fs a true interpretation of its edi- torial. And yet in the same issue and on the Same page it commences an editorial in the fol- lowing language: “Scarcely a day passes in which instances of rate discriminating against this city are not brought to light. Minneapolis and St. Paul make a rate to Pacific Coast 5+ cents lower than is allowed St. Louis. Chicago is said to have been given new advantages over St. Louis in rates to Kansas City,” etc., J. ‘*Pretty Polly!’’ To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. IT thank you kindly for helping me find my pet parrot. I also thank the lady who kindly re- turned it to me. The parrot was found at 3125A St. Vincent avenue. As I returned from school Tuesday at noon I was very happy when I saw my parrot. Once more I thank the Post-Dis- patch. ANNA. MEYER. A Schoolboy Army. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch In referring to ex-Gov. Francis’ speech at Ful- ton a few days ago, I must say it was a grand display of oratory and words of wisdom worthy of the man. I certainly agree with him when he refers to the uselessness of a large standing army in this country, which is a curse and a drain on the resources and people of the mon- archical countries of Europe, whose inhabitants are no better than serfs and slaves and taxed to the limit to maintain enormous standing armies and numberless members of so-called noyal fami- lies. Instead of having a large standing army in this country, I would suggest that the school boards throughout this country consider the prop- osition that all male pupils from the age of 12 years up be given one-half hour during school hours and be instituted as one of the courses and instructed in drills, army maneuvers and military tactics, which would not only give them good exercise, but would improve them both physically and mentally, and when the time comes for action, which I sincerely hope it never will, they would be found more capable in defending their native country and maintaining the dignity of the stars and stripes. THOMAS J. McGRATH. More Good Reasons Why. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. - Referring to the extension of the Fourth street line, there are many reasons why it should be dene. First of all, the deadly “Y” at Grand ave- nue and Arsenal street. The United Railways Co., I believe, is supposed to take a passenger to his destination by the shortest route. Now take a person living on Morganford road south of Ar- senal street, wanting to get to the cemeteries on Gravois road; he either has to walk about two miles to the Cherokee line or ride down to Sixteenth street and Park avenue and transfer to the Cherokee line, thus going about six miles out of his way and losing about an hour and a half’s time, as the Tower Grove line transfers to Grand will not transfer you again to Cherokee as it will north of Chouteau.

THE NEW NATIONALISM. From the Springfield Republican. Great fortunes, we are told, should be made impossible altogether by the dras- tic imposition of graduated income and inheritance taxes levied, not primarily for revenue, but for social purposes, It is at this point that Mr. Roosevelt strikes his extremest noté, for ‘‘it is not enough,’’ he says, that a fortune ‘“‘should have been gained ‘without doing dam- age to the community. We should per- mit it to be gained only so long as the gaining represents benefit to the com- munity.’’ Appreciating, apparently, what such language means, he adds: This, L.know, imy'‘es a policy of a far more active governmental interference with: social and economic conditions in this country than We have yet had, but [ think we have got to face the fact that such an increase in governmental control is now necessary. And surely we should get government control with a vengeance—ought we not to go at once into socialism and have done with all this pottering?—if the Government is to outlaw all that money making in behalf of which it can only be said that it does no harm to the com- munity. The ‘‘new nationalism” which Mr. Roosevelt preaches with so much em- phasis in the closing section of his ad- dress is indispensable to the carrying oft of such a program. It means in- evitably the development of a supreme Federal power, in the presence of which the states would shrivel and decay. Mr. Roosevelt’s conception of the “new na- tionalism,” as an agency for controlling special privilege and the aggressions of private wealth, is no doubt democratic, even radically democratic in its spirit, but with his impatience of the restraints of the judiciary, as expressed at Den- ver, and his distrust of written consti- tutions which are not “‘easy’’ to amend, as expressed at Pueblo, and his old- time contempt of Congress, as expressed so often during his last months in the presidency, he would undoubtedly land the republic, if given a free hand, in a form of democracy which would be the ready prey of the executive power. That is to say, the executive would be, in ef- fect, the entire government; and Mr. Roosevelt would finish either in social- ism or Caesarism. The Meck. From the New York World. Theodore Roosevelt took up this task in the last two years of his second ad- ministration and well did he perform it. As President of the United States I have, as it were, inherited this policy, and I rejoice in my heritage.—President Taft at St. Paul. Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.—Matthew 5, 6. Real Economy. From the Dallas News. It has just about gotten so in this country that a woman thinks she is eco- nomical if she wears the same old hair through two seasons.

POSTSCRIPT. (The century-old fisheries dispute, between the United States and Great Britain has been settled at The Hague.—News.) D edge— ON’T you remember, Darby dear, when we were both at college, And the Friday evening debate was the fountain-head of know]- Resolved, That we Should share the sea Inside the 53d degree, Or there or thereabouts—ah me! How quickly we were nettled, And what great fun it used to be— Well, Darby, it’s been settled. ’* + ¢. ‘ ON’T you remember, Darby dear, the moving peroration, D The judges’ verdict, and the cheer, the losers’ indignation— Whereas, The sea At fifty-three Is no one’s, 80 we must agree— Or something of that sort—ah me! How quickly we were nettled, And what great fun it used to be— Well, Darby, it’s been settled. , * ¢ ¢ HEY’VE got together, Darby dear, and the country’s safely through it, But it’s taken us a hundred year, and The Hague at length to do it. I’ve heard it said The fish are dead, And the fishermen have mostly fled, Rut everybody kept his head, however we were nettled, So we never got to throwing lead— © And now, THE RIVER FRONT. The announcement that Capt. Baldwin is to fly down the river front may or may not be a sufficient direction for per- sons wishing to see him fly. Notwithstanding that the destiny of |. the city is inseparable from that very quarter, probably very few of us would know the river front any more if we saw it, or, having repaired in that direction, would ‘be quite sure when we had come to it. Boats, which have formerly been a4 rather easy means of identification, have almost wholly disappeared. Water, which may be said to have been the chief characteristic of the vicinity, is more or less dependent upon local rains. That is, if it rains tonight there will be water tomorrow, and if it does not rain there may be and there may not. You never can tell. Nobody can tell. Some of the most seasoned steam- boatmen in the harbor have set sail this fall under the impression that there was water, and have returned on a train. Then there are bridges--and bridges. Nothing like it was. You never saw a river bridged as ours is getting to be. Coming downstream, there is first the Merchants’ Bridge. Then there is the McKinley Bridge. Two tniles below that Cates:

thank God! it’s settled. is the Eads Bridge, and a mile farther down, somewhat resembling wreckage caught on a dike, is the Free Bridge. It isn’t the old river front at all. You could pass right on over into East &t. Louis and never know there was any- thing wrong until you saw the one- story saloons. The better way is to take a guide. See eeeeene eee ee . The difference between Mr. Taft and Mr. Roosevelt is that probably not ten people in the United States know where Mr. Taft was yester- day. i hen ee een e ee > Bram Stoker is the author of a forth- coming volume entitled “Famous Im- postors.” A writer with plenty of cour- age and the right prejudices ought to come pretty near making a best seller of that book just now.

HE error by which we profit is one of the strange freaks of — events. It is easy to accept the benefit, but it is not so easy 4 xa to avoid the mental injury. We are elated when we should |) still be provoked. Even profit must needs steal upon us unawares (© and break through our incompetence. We succeeded not by our ~* intelligence, but by our ignorance. ‘Soa Any dunce could have been caught that way by a good Provi- a dence. Even the success should make us inwardly ashamed. And | it is the last thing to boast of. Yet we are compelled to wear tha "JF honors in public. We hesitate whether to confess to our employer, j = | whether to whisper the facts to our best friend and act the false ; before other people or to go about explaining. . e Beneficial errors are sinister in the encouragement of loogs methods. The spoiled child of nature grows in presumption. There | is just one stern way to deal with mistakes, and thatistoreprobate | them. If we stumbled upon a good thing, still the mind that did “4 not stumble and yet missed the good thing, while walking witha manly tread, is far better situated. For profitable errors are vastly — 4 : in the minority. aan The strong and steady footsep will go further. There is meas. ; 4q ureless danger in thinking it might happen that way again. Two j| errors, plus and minus, balance, just once in a million times. Put : 4 it in that ratio and you are safe. It is right to accept the fruits — = of investigation, which we call discovery, with humble gratitudeand self-encouragement. In this sense about all our great inventions have been more or less stumbled on. No one knows this better than i the great inventors and discoverers themselves, and they have — almost uniformly acknowledged it. They were in the way of duty, 7 in the line of search, an dthe reward came as 4 revelation. Ee Mistakes in conduct, moral errors, evil doings that result in unexpected benefit are almost fatal to character. Not one inten FF thousand ever attributes them to the mercy of nature or the long suffering pity of an overruling Power. The debauched mind jumps at the conclusion that there is no essential difference between righ§ — and wrong. : | a Settle it as the law that errors are followed by the distressful ig labor of setting them right. They are sand in the machinery. They are motes in the eye. They are the perpetual reminders of oup ‘allability. Against errors we educate, train, discipline. Itisa sonstant fight. There is a perversity about mistakes that is ex- — aisperating and renders them almost self-propagating. -Ask the ‘lerks who spend midnight hours on a trivial balance where twa ind two were made five repeatedly. a Never rely on the happiest error.

I shan’t rest in my grave unless: I get a word with you. Your father sent you here to me and I’m damned if I know what for. I've been wondering every day about it for two months. He didn't know what this set ‘was like or how rotten it is.” ‘What set?” The boy looked ap- pallingly young as Gordon stared down at him. There wasn't a line or wrinkle on his smooth brow or on his lips and forehead finely cut and well molded—but there were the very seals of what his father would have been glad to see. The boy had the same clear look and unspolled frank- ness that had charmed Galorey at the first. . had been a lazy coward to delay so iong. Whe, the rottenness of this set right here in my house.” And as the host began to see that he should have to approach a woman's name in apenking. he stopped short, his mouth wide and Dan thought h king. f marrying Lily,” Bar got up out of his chair.

Your friend Rug- cee has gone off ang washed his ands of you, but I can’t.” Lord Galorey walked across the room ‘briskly and came back to Dan. “First of uli, you are not in love with Lily—not a bit of it. You couldn’t be—and what's more she is not In love with you.” 3 Islair laughed coolly. “You cer- tainly have got things down to a fine point, Gordon. I'll be. hanged if I understang your game,” Galorey went bravely on: fore, if neither of you are in love, yOu understand that there ts noth- ne between you but your money.” The binglishman got his point out brutally, relieved that the imper- Senal thing money opened a way for him. He didn’t want to be the bounder and the cad that the men- _ae of the woman would have made m. The boy drew in an angry breath. “Gosh,” he said, “that cursed money wlll make me crazy yet! You are not very flattering to me, Gordon, I swear, and Lily wouldn’t thank you for the motives you impute to her.” “Oh. rot!’ returned Gordon more tranqullly. “She hasn’t got a human sentiment in her. She’s a rock with a Woman's face.” Dan turned his back on his host and walked off lito the billiard-room. Galorey promptly followed him, took down a cue and chalked it, and said: “Well, come now; let’s put it to Bialr began stacking the “There- “How do you mean?” ‘Well, when j;0u have had time to get your first news over from Rug- gles, tell her you have gone to finash and that you are a pauper.” ‘I don't play tricks like that,” said the _ Westerner quietly. “No,” responded Galorey bitterly, “you let others play tricks on you.” The young man threw his temptuously at the worldly man, and he turned pale, but he said in a low voice: “Now, a Se got to let up on this, Gordon; thought at first you had been drinking.

You are of age. You can go to the devil if\yeu like, but you cant go there under my roof, with- out a word from me,” “Then I'll @et out from under your roof, tonight.” “Right!

When Galorey had run off his string of balls, he said, looking up from the table; “But I've got a very good opinion of that I‘nice girl’ you told me of when you first came, and I wish to Heaven she hag kept you in the States.” This caught the boy’s attention as nothing else had. “There never was any such girl,” he said slowly; “there rever has been ‘anywhere; I rather guess they don’t grow. You have inade me a cad in listening to you, Gordon, but as to playing any of those ¢omedy tricks you’ suggest, they are not in my line. If she is mar- eying me for my money, why, she'll get it.” “You're a coward,” said Galorey, “like the rest of American husbands —all ideal and no common sense. You want to make a mess of your life. You haven't the grit to get out of a bad job.” He spurred himself on and “his weak face arew strong as he felt he was compeiling the boy’s attention. “tf vou eniy had half the character your father had, you wouldn't make a mistake ike this; you wouldn't run blind it:to such a deal as this.” Blair w.us impressed by his host.

It you are jealous, I can forgive it a little bit, but it is low down to call a woman a fortune hunter.” Now Gordon Galorey’s face chang- ed and grew slightly white. ‘Don't make me angry, my dear chap,” he said in a low tone; “I have said what I wanted to say. Now, go to the ity if you like and as s00n as you ike.” And the boy said hotly, stammer- ing his excitement: “Not yet—not—yet—not before I ‘ell you what I think.” Gordon, with wonderful control of his own anger, met the boy's eyes, and said with great patience: ‘No, don’t, Dan; don’t go on.

THE RIVAL FIRMS. Two rival safe makers “were once arguing as to the merits of their re- spective safes for withstanding fire. Said the first: “During a great fire which occurred some time ago, a chicken somehow happened to get into one of our safes, and when taken out it was alive and unhurt.” “Oh,” sneered the other, “that is nothing! During a fire a chicken got into one of ours somehow, and when taken out it was found stand- ing on one leg—frozen to death.”— Washington Times. INTERESTED.

SEWARD, Alaska, Sept. 9.—Alonzo Wells, a prospector, who was pursued for 14 days by a pack of gray wolves in the Busitna River country, north of Cook inlet, tells a horrible story of the fate that overtook a brother miner, who was run down by the beasts, Wells left Knick Aug. 1 for Iron Creek, in the Talkeetna range. When out four days he fell in with the wolves, who dared not attack him because he was armed, yet followed him until he reached his destination. Wells would climb a tree at night and lash himself to the trunk in order to sleep while the wolves waited below. At one point on his journey he heard a man shrieking for help. Making his way to the place whence the call had come, he found a miner’s pack, shreds of clothing, gnawed bones and other evi- dence that the wolves had made a meal off a miner.

SPECIAL ASSEMBLY MEETING CALLED FOR BRIDGE LAND BILL Condemnation of Ground for Eastern Railroad Meets With Objections: The Municipal Assembly will be called into special session next Wednesday to pass an ordinance authorizing the condemnation of land for the eastern railroad approach of the Free Bridge. Mayor Kriesmann issued the proclama- tion Friday. The land to be acquired consists of several parcels between a point 2400 feet east of the east bank of the river and the Iflinois Transfer Railway (Belt Line). Civic organizations opposed to the route selected by the Board of Public Improvements are expected to fight the passage of the ordinance. Members of these associations contend that the building of the railroad approach on the south side of the Southern Railway Co.'s terminals, which are 400 feet wide and a mile and a half long, would make it] almost impossible for lines entering East

Opposing pitchers cry: “What, Ty Is ahy an eye? Wow! Bus I'm giad ain't Got that ceamplaint.” And magnates wall: ‘pigned Nine men all blind.’’ Y some others "I wish I'd | FTER looking over the list of ve br- A ans whom Mike Walker says will return to the Central High foot- ball team this season, it is evident that playing of semi-professional baseball is no bar to amateur eligibility. Or was it R-w-n’s “‘double” who pitched a game for a Trolley League club, not so many weeks ago?

Chance is a great general. He pats his men on the back and keeps them in good spirits with themselves. But he goes a little too far when he says that his pitching corps has more nerve than any other slab outfit in either league. There’s our Cardinal staff. Think ef the nerve they must have to ever go to the mound If object lessons are at all appreciated in 8t. Louis high schools, the contem- plated prohibition of football will ruin @ splendid one. For football teaches the young, for the first time, the real . meaning of the word GOAL-—something te attain to. It teaches impressionable boys to spare no pains, balk at no saerifices, withhold no ounce of their power and courage to get to that goal. And it seems, to a man up a tree, that ence this is seared into the system, it fe of more moment to a lad’s future than mastering the trick of finding the cube root of X, raised to the Nth power. The Hasard Magnified. ND the injuries? After all, look- ing through the list of interscho- lastic league casualties, there is rothing terrifyingly numerous or serious | about it. The chances are much more against a young man’s being killed or wounded when his father takes him shooting or swimming than when he plays football. And yet they license the chance of one man to kill another, mistaking him for a Géer, while they make no move to restrict swimming. It’s the same old story of the limelight —football has becorne so conspicuous in the news columns that the attention of all sorts of ill-posted critics is drawn to the superficial aspects of the game. In New York, not long. since, they stopped a prize fight between perfect- ly trained men because the boxers ” tracted national attention. Yet two or permitted pot-house brawlers to maul each other in the name of boxing. The like was even true of the Jeff- Johnson fight. when they ran the big game out of San Francisco, while per- mitting the lesser lights to flourish. Baseball More Fatal. O it is with football. Baseball had S a total, last year, of something like 44 deaths and an untold ros- ter of injured. Of these 4 deaths something like 20 were due to being hit in the head by pitched balls. Yet football is made the “goat.” When the facts were sifted down by a Prince- tonian, who took pains to get at the bottom of every injury and death re- ported due to the gridiron game, he found 14 deaths directly due to football. Most of those killed had been weak- lings or ill trained men. The two im- portant fatalities, Byrne of West Point and Wilson of Annapolis, were perhaps the only ones recorded in years where the men were fit and competent and members of teams with a high stand- The age of reason, it appears, has , mot yet arrived in football reform. THE TRUST BUSTER. Mr. Something Fletcher has a new as- ~ sociation. (Gee, Mr. Fletcher, you're a star.) Roth the leagues are facing sheer an- nihilation. (Fletcher, you're a wonder! are!) Millions are already in the newest plan to bust This amazing cctopus that’s called the Baseball Trust. Won't he grind ‘em into earth and then grab off the dust? (Wake up, Fletcher!

NS NO LONGER ARE [0 WATth VETERAN BROWNS Manager O’Connor Will Please Fans by Using as Many Recruits as Possible. That the veteran members of the Browns no longer interest patrons of Sportman’s Park was plainly evident from the actions of the fans who turned out to see the double-header between the O’Connorites and White Sox of Chicago Thursday. Quite a goodly gathering—the largest weekday turnout at either ball yard in a long while—was on hand, expecting to see the bunch of juveniles that Manager O’Connor had promised to show. When the team appeared, made up largely of veterans, much disappointment resulted. O’Connor had expected to show several! new members of his recruit colony. That served as a magnate to draw out a good gathering of the faithful. But because Jim McDonald, the Shreveport third sacker, was sick, due to the loca! water he was unable to play. That necessitated Hartzell’s presence on third instead of the outfield, a¥ promised. Then Outflelder Northen, as well as Pitchers Malloy and Mitchell of the Houston (Texas League) team, who were scheduled to arrive in time to play, failed to report. So instead of Stone, Northen and Hartzell fn the out- field, O‘Connor had to send Stone, Hoffman, Griggs and Schweitzer to the outer works. Corriden Starts Well. John (‘“‘Red’’) Corriden, the young in- fielder from the Omaha (Western League) club, lined up at short and made an instantaneous hit. He played & sensational game, His work caught the eye of the spectators igmediately and the applause that was meant for other newcomers was centered on the bright-headed youth. He had 12 chances in the first game, He accepted all without a flaw. In the second he had nine and missed one, making a wide throw to first base. Corriden is a small fellow, probably a bit larger than Arnold Hauser of the Cardinals. But he is quick and showed a fondness for hard-hit ground- ers. If O’Connor can only make him hit in the neighborhood of .250 he should prove a valuable man. As related before, it was the expected showing of the youngsters that at- tracted the fans. It is to be regretted that the enthusiasts got after Bailey, Hartzell and Griggs. The three mentioned players were sub- jected to a severe panning. It’s a bad thing for baseball and does not help tne players any, but only goes to prove that'the newcomers, not the veterans, interest the fans. The earlier O’Connor lays off the old-timers and injects the recruits in the game, the better it will please Brown followers. Chance for New Pitchers. Because of the great number of double-headers the Browns have struck, it is very probable that all of O’Connors new pitchers will be given early trials. Two games are again carded for Fri- day. The same number is on the bill Saturday, the final of the series with the White Sox of Chicago. Sunday the. Naps call and will engage in a bargain day attraction with the men of O’Con- nor. Malloy and Mitchell, both of the Hous- ton (Texas League) team; “Lefty” George of the Indianapolis (American Association) team, and Nelson of the Akron (Ohio and Pennsylvania League) team, are certain to show, because of O’Connor’s limited staff of veteran heavers. Jack has promised to put the new- comers in the game as soon as they report. He was disappointed tn the failure of the Texas contingent, as well as George, to show up Thursday.

A. ‘‘and they will be sent if they show are in condition a week before vent, Talbot and Walter Nevin will be the two men from Kansas City. Talbot is undoubtedly the greatest athiete in the Western division of the A. A. U. and ought to make a great showing in the. senior events on the second day of the meet. Wal- ter Nevin is the little Indian runner who beat Forline here last summer in the 100- vard dash in the Western A. A. U. cham- pionships at Christian Brothers’ campus. He ought also to make a strong contender in the junior 440-yard run. FORMER HYDE PARK STAR MAKES GOOD IN OKLAHOMA Pat Casey, the St. Louis boy who played second base for the Oklahoma City team of the Texas League, returned to St. Louls Thursday. Casey had a good se&son, al- though his club finished down near the bottom of the heap. He declares that there is not much difference between the speed of the Texas League and that of the men on the Hyde Park team of this oity. Casey was second baseman for the Hyde Parks last year. He has played in the Three I and Western leagues also. Ac- cording to Casey, the Hyde Parks, with a couple more good pitchers, could go into the Texas or any other class B league and make a good showing. BOATS OF ALL SPEEDS TO GET CHANCE AT THIS MEET NEW YORK, Sept. 9.—A 24-hour motor- boat race for craft of 14 miles or better will be one of the interesting events of the fall sports program in, New York waters. The boats will race in five classes.

The course will be triangular and short enough so that even the fastest boats will be In sight of the judges’ boat at all times. Cups will be offered for the boats making the 24-hour run with the least number of stops. Each minute of stop will be counted as one point against the racer. SPECIALIST SAYS TY COBB NEEDS ONLY A REST CURE DETROIT. Mich., Sept. 9.—The oculist to whom Ty Cobb, the ball player, submitted his inflamed eve for examination has issued an official statement in which he says: ‘‘Tyrus Cobb is being treated by me for cyclitis of the right eye. This condition is serious, as ft is an inflammation of one of the most important structures of the eye. The binocular vision is seriously affected, The treatment demanded in his case necessi- tates the relaxation of the focusing apparatus of the eye. I have advised him to remain out of the game for several days at least. I feel sure that no permanent injury to his sight wil) result from this inflammation, providing that he now ‘takes a stitch in time’ in the way of complete rest.’’ ST, LOUIS GIRL WILL TRY TO BEAT GOODWIN'S MARK Miss Lottie Mayer, a St. Louis girl, who on July 12, 190& swam from Alton, Tll., to St. Louis, a distance of 26 miles, in 6 hours and 18 minutes, will attempt to swim from the Chain of Rocks to the Eads Bridge next Thursday.
