AE OF CORY N FROM STACKS ¥ BIC HAT STORM Marvesters Arive at Field to Find Crop Almost En- tirely Ruined.

RUINS COSTLY PLANTS

' ik Work of Years Swept Away in West End—Shaw’s Garden Safe. MORE RAIN AND WIND

Another Aerial Disturbance Due Monday Night, Weath- er Forecaster Says.

Forty acres of corn on the Sunnv- brook Dairy Farm near Clayton was reaped by the terrific hailstorm which Swept over the city and county Mon- day and which destroyed hundreds of beautiful plants in the West End resi- dence district. Robert Tesson had engaged nine men te begin harvesting his corn Monday. When he went into the field after the storm he found that the hail had cut the: ears and leaves from all of the stalks. The crop, valued at $1600, was a to- tal loss. Not an ear of corn was fit - to be sent to market and most of it was sS0 battered by the hail that it was worthless even as feed for cat- tle. Tesson dismissed the nine harvest- ers and hired two laborers to pick up what was left of the crop. Damage was’ greatest in the Cabanne Mistrict. In St. Louis County also the hail destroyed growing fruits and gar- flen vegetables and practically elimi- Wated the late crop of grapes. Weather Forecaster Hayes says that another storm of similar character may strike St. Louis Monday night. ) The bormrardment of hail was pre- ceeded by a rain which almost reached he volume and intensity of a cloud- urst. This was accompanied by a wind hich was registered at the Weather ureau:. on the Chemical pbuilding as aving a velocity of 30 miles an hour the southeast. Its speed igs_ be- lieved to have been much greater in the svesfern and northwestern portions of the city. Seme Sections Fiecaped. Riding like an aeroplane the storm would dip occasionally when it struck varying currents of air in the lower etrata. For this reason, some sections of the city were little affected whils other sections, widely separated, report-| ed severe disturbances. In the southern, southwestern and eastern portions of the city the severity of the storm was confined to striking electrical displays and a deluge of rain. In the Cabanne district few gar escaped. Large leaves of the plant _fnown as elephant's ear were riddled as though bullets had passed through them. The canna, a large lily, which is a great favorite with bouseholders, was strange- ly affected. The leaves of exposed plants were torn to shreds as though split with knives. Shaw’s Garden escaped the hailstorm ~~ Forest Park trees protected aller vegetation, but there was damage to plants in the cleared esa around the lakes. Hail Stones Were Large. Some residents of the West End picked up halilstones more than an inch in di- ameter. The Weather Bureau's explanation of the storm is that low pressure areas coming from the West Indies and the Gulf of Mexico shifted northwestward at.low ikcvels, practically leaving a vac- uum behind them and causing a sudden cooling cf the upper strata of air. The sudden drop in temperature congealed the rail drops and turned them into hail. “The storm is now central northwest of St. Louis,”’ said Forecaster Hayes. “Another storm is coming from the ’ pouthwest. It is tmpossible to forecast whether the second storm will bring more hall. It will strike St. Louls Monday evening. Our record shows that last night’s storm struck the downtown district at 2:15 a. ™m., but it was most severe in west St. Louis three-quarters of an hour later. The wind was not what we would consider high and probably there would ‘have been no damage but for the hail.” The storm moved from St. Louis at 3:30 a. m., leaving behind it a pall of black clouds which settled over the city. With little perceptible clearing of the skies a steady rainfall, without wind, commenced at 9:30 a. m., with prospects of continued gloom throughout the day. —_——_-- -----=- MANSAS CITY HAS 2.6 INCHES “OF BUNFALL IN EIGHT HOURS) : 4 _, KANSAS CITY, Mo., Sept. 26.—An electric storm of unusual severity, Guring which 2.6 inches of rain fell, doing much damage here last night ‘and early today.

EVERYBODY WILL BE INSANE BY AND BY, DOCTOR DECLARES Neglected Children Will Degeneracy Upon World, He Says in Church Address. CHICAGO, Sept. 26.—Everybody will be insane by and by, according to Dr. Cc. a Devin. superintendents of the Christian En- deavor societies he declared that chief among the causes which are sapping civilization is the ‘‘neglected child.’’ “One man out of every 300 in the United States is insane,’’ he said. ‘civilization is crumbling—it is going mad. The physicians know it; the peo- ple don’t know it. You Christian En- deavorers don’t know it, but it is the truth nevertheless. “Forty thousand gaunt, hungry, ex- hausted children are toiling in the dust and roar of the cotton mills of the South and New England. In the great city of New York, I am informed, 20,000 children attend school esery morning suffering the pangs of hunger. “What is the result of this neglect o* children? It is degeneracy—the great army of the unfit. There must be Gov- ernment action taken in order to ac- complish the rescue. We need a depart- ment of health at Washington.”’

On the inside surface of the lid is a tiny mirror. Guards for the dangerous point of the hatpin match the heads of the pin. Other guards are made even larger atid are more elaborately ornamented than the heads. The same guards may be used interchangeably for many pins. Both heads and guards represent roosters, pheasants, owls’ heads or other bird heads made in gold, silver. and gems, or rhinestones and imitations. In some designs the rooster from comb to claws is three inches long. Sbmetime only a side view of the bird is givan and in other specimens he seems co be strutting out as if for his morning crow.

GIRL QUITS 100 ARDENT A WOOLR T0 KEEP HER JOB He Walked in Front of Home for Hours and Hid in Weeds.

THAT WASN’T SO BAD

But She Rebelled When He Telephoned Her 8 Times cc.

George Huellinghorst, 22 years old, was haled into the Wyom ning Street Po- lice Court Monday because he was too loving. Leona Thomas, who was en- gaged to marry him until two months ago, was SO annoyed by his excessive devotion that she discarded him as a sweetheart and finally set a trap in which he was snared by the police. “T kept company with George for four years,’’ Miss Thomas told Judge Klei- ber, ‘‘and each year he became more ardent. He said he could not bear me out of his sight. “T could’ endure it when he _ took to tramping up and down in front of my home until. midnight, and even when he formed the habit of lying in- the weeds across the street to watch my windows all night. ; Telephoned Too. Often. ‘But when he began to telephone me eight times a day at tthe office where I worked as a stenographer, I objected. He stopped telephoning, but came to the office and marched up and down the corridors all day, peeping in to see me every few minutes. “My employer told me I must choose between George and my job, and I chose the job. I broke the engage- ment, but George redoubled his fervor. “T met him Saturday morning and he seized me in his arms. A girl friend had to drag me loose, but he made me promise to meet him Sunday night at Jefferson avenue and Chippewa street, near my home. I asked the police what I should do. They told me to keep the appointment and that they would be near.”’ Huellinghorst was in the midst of an impassioned entreaty when Policemen Fox and Meyer seized him. . A@mits His Deep Love. Huellinghorst testified that he was so deeply in love that he hardly knew what he was doing. “I believe Miss Thomas still loves me,”’ he said, ‘‘but she has let members of her family influence her against me.”’ As the girl, a pretty brunette, 20 years old, tossed her head scornfully at this statement, Judge Kleiber ordered Huel- linghorst to cease his attentions on pain of being rearrested, but released him without a fine. The defendant lives at 2709 Chippewa street. TRAIN BOUND TO ST. LOUIS IN COLLISION; ONE KILLED When the St. Louis limited, a Missouri Pacific fast train bound from Kansas City to St. Louis collided with a freight train at Hermann, Mo., Monday, Samuel Evans, fireman of the freight was killed and several passengers were slightly injured. Three empty mail cars at the front of the passenger train broke the force of the collision. Engineer Murphy and Firemen West of the passenger train jumped from the cab and rolled down a steep embank- ment. Neither was injured. According to a telegram received at the local.offices of the Missouri Pacific there was no conductor on the freight train when the collision occurred. The conductor went into the stetion to wire for orders. When he came out he saw his train rapidly moving down the track. An instant later he saw the passenger train strike the freight engine. Dispatches from Jefferson City say that the freight train was out of the siding when it was struck. Thp en- gines were so firmly locked together that wreckers were sent to disen- tangle them. The passenger train handles traffic on the southwest division of the Mis- souri Pacific. It is invariably crowd- ed and carries two or three sleepers. A ASAI LOO! OE EE) EB

IREPENTANT. Tht ‘TELLS WHERE it BURIED VALUABLES Returns $400 by Mail and Tells Where Watch and Chain Can Be Found.

A letter from a _ conscience-stricken thief, received in Monday morning’s mail, according to Louis E. Mays’ state- ment to policemen, brought back to Mays $400, stolen from his coat last Fri- day afternoog. It also told him where and how to find his gold watch and chain, stolen at the same time. Fol- lewing directions, Mays says, he dug in a back yard at 6437 West Park avenue, kotest Park Home place, and found the watch. The West Park avenue ambient is that of Mays’ father-in-law, David ‘Coleman. Mays and his wife came here from their home in San Antonio last weékK on a visit. . Mays and his wife, according to his statement to policemen, went shopping downtown last Friday afternoon and lost each other. He went to the Cole- man home, tpok off his coat and hung it on a chair. Then he walked in. his shirtsleeves to the car line to await his wife’s return. His money and watch were in the coat. When his wife alighted from a car, he walked with her to the house and found that his valuables had been taken. He telephoned to the Mounted District po- lice. He said he valued his watch and chain at $175. Police Quit Search. Two men were assigned to the case and the matter was still in their hands when, at noon Monday, a message came from Mays telling of the return of his valuables. “He read by telephone the letter which he said the morning mail had brought him. It was as follows. Inclosed find your money. I am awfully sorry I took it. My con- science compelled me to return it. I cannot return the watch by mail, but you’ will find it in the yard. ‘ Go to the spot indicated in the diagram and dig. “There was a diagram of the yard, a rather rough one,”’ said Mays. “I dug down nearly seven feet at the place indi- cated and found the watch and chain.”’ HUSBAND'S JOKE KILLS WIFE CHICAGO, Sept. 2.—James Wright, 60 years old, is held on a charge of causing the death of his wife. As Mrs. Wright, who is 7% years old, attempted to sit down, her husband, as a joke, pulled a cRair from beneath her and she fell to the floor, injuring her spine. Death followed seon after.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. > —- eno —— fT ccm PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 26—John H. Devine, head of a large commercial printing house in this city, has sent the following let- ter to the president of the Pennsylvania railroad: : Philadelphia, Sept. 22, 1910—Mr. James McCrea, president Penn, R. R., Philadelphia: Dear Sir—As a stockholder of the Penn- sylvania railroad I have been greatly surprised to learn that there is an account, long overdue, for transportation furnished by it to Theodore Roosevelt. It is a matter of quite general knowledge, so I learn, that this account amounts to $100,000. Whether the person owing such amount be a President or a former President, whoever he may be, the interests of the Pennsylvania Railroad, it seems to me, demand a settlement. Will you advise me if I am correctly informed, and if so, is there any reason why this debt should es. be paid. Will you also kindly inform me what steps have been taken, if any, in behalf of the cc:dApany to collect the amount due and what prospect there is, if any, of its settlement? Very truly Theodore Roosevelt's traveling at the expense of the stockholders of the rail- roads during the first four years of his presidency resulted in Congress appro- priating $25,000 a year to meet the cost of necessary presidential travel in the fu- ture. fo provision was made, however, to reimburse the railroads for Roose- velt’s use of special trains, which were furnished for his bear hunts, his turkey hunts, his eat-’em-alive lion-killing ex- peditions, for his social engagements, his home goings and comings and for. the transportation of his friends, his servants, his horses and goods. Pennsylvania Bears ‘Brunt. On_the stockholders of the Pennsyl- vania Railroad the burden fell most heavily, since nearly all of the presi- dential junkets started out from Wash- ington over that company’s lines. To it fell also the lot of furnishing all of. the transportation between the White House and Oyster Bay. The Pennsy!l- vania furnished ta@ Roosevelt $108,915 worth of free transportation and in in- ner railroad circles it has been com-

way JOHN H. DEVI mon property for several years that this remains unpaid. Publicly the Pennsylvania officials will not admit that Roosevelt owes the cor- poration anything. They say the trans- portation was furnished without any ex- > pectation; that there is no account against Roosevelt and that the items ” were charged to advertising. | Among themselves, high officials of the Pennsylvania have discussed the Roosevelt trips when there have been fulminations about bringing the Corpo, ration to time. No Discrimination on Trips. It was the custom to carry the Pres- ident of the United States, on some or casions, as a free and honored guest. The railroad could not very well dis- criminate between a bear hunt and trip of the President to dedicate a mon-’ ument. Roosevelt rode up and down the lines at his pleasure. There may have been railroad officials who believed that the President, who was even then gleefully cinching them, would hesitate to accept as courtesies to the presi- dential office the expense of his purely personal pleasure expediiietis. Such op~- timistic ones were due to disappoint. ment. Transportation Looked Upon by Many as Nevertheless, it is notorious—it has been so for years—that officials 29 many of the trunk lines regarded this trans- portation as a debt, not a courtesy; tut could they dun the President of the United States? Respect fér the presi- dential office—to say nothing of the tightness or the roughness of the al- was impending Rooseveltian cinch— repressed even a breath of a sugges- tion that the railroad stockholders might object to the continued drain upon their resources. Consequently no steps were taken to intimate that the bills, with propriety, might be settled. Steckholder Seek, Facts. Devine, who is a stockholder of the Pennsylvania Railroad, has written a ietter to find exactly what is the status of the Roosevelt account with his road. He desires to know why the stockhold- ers of a private corporation should have to bear the public burden, not only of safeguarding the life of the President while on his travels, but of carrying him free of charge and supplying him and his friends with all the comforts of life on his private and personal pleas- ure trips. Mr. Devine is representative of a large class of Pennsylvania own- ers of moderate means. The stock of that road is widely held by small in- vestors. Had the railway stockholders been made to stand only the loss from hauling the President over their own lines, there would have been less complaint. But there was the expense of hiring Pull- man cars and stocking them with pro- visions and wines, according to the menu furnished by Roosevelt's majer domo and attendants. How the cost of transportation over foreign lines is paid has never been made public. In rail- road circles it is said that the Socuth- ern Railway, over which Rooseveit traveled south from Washington on many occasions, has a charge of $60,000. The New York, New Haven & Hart-

Debt, and Not Courtesy tot also generously were patronized. After the celebrated bear-hunting trip, Democratic congressmen consid- ered offering a resolution demanding in- © formation concerning the President's practice of procuring special trains and special cars without charge for his use in private travel. They were restrained for reasons which they did not pubilely discuss. At the same time raliroad offi- clels were complaining so bitterly that Congress voted $25,000 a year for their relief, Cravings for Specials Insatialte. Roosevelt's craving for special trains and travel during his term in the White House seemed to railroad men to be in- satiable. “Roosevelt,” they said, “seems to eon- sider that special trainee and cars are part of the perquisites of the presidency and he orders them when- ever the humor seizes him.” . The railroads in other words, were beginning to feel that Roosevelt was abusing their courtesy and that it was time he offered to pay for at least some of the cars and trains he was ordering. While they would not dun the President, — they considered that, in some cases, ae A high official of one of the roads : that hauled Roosevelt once said: ) <n

This brought forward an immediate protest. There was no authorized ap- propriation out of the regular funds, said the secretary, and the President could not possibly afford to pay it out of his own salary. ROOSEVELT’S IDEA OF G00D TASTE SHOWN IN NAME HOOK Crowds His Autograph in Be- .tween That of Kaiser and Prince Oscar of Sweden Cable to the Post-Dispatch and New York World. BERLIN, Sept. 26.—All Amsterdam is laughing at the latest example of Roose- velt’s idea of good taste, now on exhibi- tion there. At the Rijks Myseum in a glass case is shown a page from the museum's “Golden Book,’’ wherein prominent per- sonalities write their names. The single page exhibited shows the autograph of the Kaiser and Prince Oscar, between them Roosevelt’s signature. The page has the Kaiser’s signature dated 1907 and Prince Oscar's 1909.

The 15 little girls who were bitten and scratched by a dog in the Chouteau Schoo! yard 10 days ago are not in the slightest danger of hydrophobia, accord- ing to a report made Monday by City Bacteriologist Harris. A thorough ex- amination of the dog’s head convinced him that the animal was not rabid and that the children do not need the Pas- teur treatment. To make certain of this, Dr. Harris in- oculated four doge with serum taken from the brain of the dead dog. None of them showed any of the symptoms which it would have shown if hydro- phobia had existed.

LONDON, Sept. 26.—A coroner’s jury, after one hour's deliberation § today, brought in the verdict that Mrs. Cora Crippen, known on the stage as Belle YJImore, had been wilfully murdered by her husband, Dr. Harvey H. Crippen, an American dentist. After listening to the testimony for several days and hearing tle summing up of th case by Coroner Schroder, the jury was left but little choice. The inquest had been dragged out longer than usual to give the police time to search for evidence. They ex- pect to bring at the trial testimony tend- ing to identify Belle Elmore’s body through the agency of a piece of flesh found to contain a scar. The case will come up for trial at the next criminal sessions, scheduled for Oct. 11. In summing up the case this after- noon, the Coroner said the evidence pre- sented concerning the identity of the buried body was slim, but there was little doubt that the flesh was human. Although the physicians frankly said they could not swear to the sex on ana- tomical grounds, they agreed. He pointed out that Belle Elmore had com- pletely disappeared and that the body had been found in her husband’s cel- lar. Other evidence as to the identity of the body, the Coroner contended, was the testimony given by ‘several wemen that Belle Elmore bore a scar and that the doctors had reached the conclusion that a rk found on a piece of skin had Seok « scar. As to Miss Leneve's position, the Coroner told the jurors it was not their duty to consider the question of accessory after the fact. The jury remained out one hour and then an- nounced the verdict that the remains were those of Crippen’s wife and that she had been wilfully murdered fhy the American dentist, adding that hyoscin poisoning was the cause of death, WERREMEYER IN RICE SHOWER ON HIS WAY TO WASHINGTON Introduces Himself to Newlyweds Who Recall All Akout Him, He Writes.

ER DUNNED THROUGH MAILS SEEKS REDRESS Letter From Constable May Is Referred to Local Post- office Inspector, CASE IS INVESTIGATED

Epistle Shows Justice Court Methods of Acting as Col- lection Agencies.

Attorney Carl Ungar of 2019 Russell avenue Monday asked that the Post- office inspectors investigate the sending through the mail of ‘letters from con- stables demanding payment of debts. Ungar in a letter to the inspectors de- clared he would prosecute Constable William E. May of the Fourth District if the inspectors would institute pro- ceedings. With his letter, Ungar forwarded to the inspector a notice he received to pay a debt of $15 to Dr. H. M. Kinner. Ungar says Dr. Kinner has never treat- ed him and that he is not indebted to him. The notice Ungar received from Con- stable May read: Mr. Carl Ungar—You are hereby notified that I hold a claim against you and in favor of Dr. H. M. Kin- ner, amounting to $15. Call at my office, 1007 Chestnut street, at once to settle the amount of said claim, otherwise, if not paid in 10 days, and judgment shall be given, I shall proceed to levy on your household property and all other personal prop- erty faqund in your possession, place a watchman in charge and summon to my aid three appraisers to ap- praise the same, and all over your exemptions I will advertise for sale according to law, as I have strict orders to that effect from the plain- tiff and his attorney, that if claim is not paid to file suit and proceed as above. From this you will readily see that it is to your interest not to cause mé the trouble of bringing the three ap- praisers and the watchman to your residence, as you will have to pay all costs, if judgment is adverse to you. I first send this notice before car- rying out said instructions. WILLIAM E. MAY, Constable of the Fourth District. Per M. M. At the hottom of the notice in large type is “Last Notice.’’ “T don’t believe the law permits the sending of threatening letters through the mail,” said Ungar Monday, “and I sent the original of this to the Pestoffice inspectors. I shall be glad to prosecute this constable.” At the office of Inspector-in-Charge Mayer, Acting Inspector-in-Charge Dainel said.the rules did not permit him to make any statement regard- ing a matter which had been referred to that department. Similar Complaints Ruled On. Previous rulings on similar com- plaints, however, have been that when such notices were inclosed in envelopes the postal laws were not violated. The notice sent to Ungar is a sample of the methods used by many constables and justices of the peace in St. Louis, who act as bill collectors, using their official positions to enforce payment.

~FRANGIS MENTO RUN DEMOCRATIC LOCAL CAMPAIGN By Agreement the State Committee Will Keep Its Hands Off, CANDIDATES BARRED Local Aspirants for Office Not Scheduled to Speak in St. Louis. The Democratic campaign in S8t. Louis will be conducted by a com- mittee dominated by supporters of David R. Francis for Uniteq States Senator. The committee was author- ized by the State Committee. Simultaneously with the announce- ment of the personnel of the com- mittee, it was stateqd at Democratic headquarters that the State Commit- tee’s campaign will be entirely inde- pendent of the City Committee’s cam- paign. Local candidates will not be speakers at meetings arranged by the Francis committee. The Francis mén on the committee are Edward Goltra, Joseph Helderle and Arthur J. Fitzsimmons. State Chairman Joseph B. Shannon and B. H, Rucker, chairman of the Executive Committee, are the Reed men who are in the minority. At a meeting of the State Com- mittee Saturday Goltra and Rucker were authorized to name the mem- bers of the committee. This action was taken after Goltra had voiced a complaint as to the treatment of the Et. Louis business men who organized the Business Men's Auxiliary, and several of whom voted for Taft in 1£08. Acording to a member of the committee, Goltra asked: “Ts it not the policy to bring about harmony and obtain the votes of as many Democrats as possible?” The committee unanimously announced that was its purpose. Goltra then de- clared the business men who. were in- strumental in forming the auxiliary were needed, and they should be en- couraged. The auxiliary had been at- tacked by friends of James A. Reed, who declared immediately after its or- ganization that its sole purpose was to promote the Francis campaign. Chairman Shannon told a Post-Dis- patch reporter Monday that be had no part in ndming the committee, and that the reason the friends of Francis pre- vailed was that the committee was to conduct the St. Louis campaign, and that three members of the committee were St. Louis men, all of them being for Francis. The plan of campaign, as announced by Shannon, Is to obtain tents and hold meetings at which speakers will argue along State and national lines. NO UNION HOTELS IN ST.

The delegates reported could find no union hotels in the qity and little union money. Samuel Gompers, president of the Federation, was verbally castigated for making his headquarters at the Planters Hotel, which was declared to be non- union. Delegate Negele of the Typo- graphical Union urged using a tent for headquarters, but subsided in despair when reminded how chilly a tent would be in November. The Committee on Arrangements re- ported that only $1750 had been raised by subscriptions from union men, but announced that the Anheuser-Busch Brewing Association had promised $1000. Delegate Stopp, carpenter and Social- ist, denounced the soliciting of money from rich corporations as ‘“panhan- dling.’’ Delegate J. C. Shanessy of the Bar- bers’ Union excoriated the Conventions Bureau, which, he said, had promised to pay hall rent for the convention. It contributed $200, which, according to Shanessy, would not pay for the first night. So prolonged and engrossing were these discussions that the question of prohibition, which was to be the ora- torical subject for the afternoon, was completely forgotten.

WAS IN THE JACKPOT Committee Reserves Decision About Admision of This Testimony.

By Associated Press. CHICAGO, Sept. 26.—State Represen- tative Charles C. White of O’FaHon, IIl., was the first witness today in the in-: vestigation into the election of United States Senator William Lorimer by the Senatorial Subcommittee on Blections and Privileges. Six of the seven mem- bers of the committees were present when his examination by Attorney Aus- trian, representing the Chicago Tribune, which, in printing White's story, brought on the investigation, began. White identified letters that he said had been sent to him by Lee O'Neil Browne asking White’s help to estab- lish Browne’s position as minority lead- er in the lower house. White, on direct examination by At- torney Austrian, declared he had been asked by Minority Leader Browne to vote for Lorimer and that Browne told him he would receive $1000 for his vote. The testimony was the same as has been given by White in the two trials of Browne. The first severe clash of the hearing came when Attorney Austrian asked what’ money was promised White. He replied: “I asked Browne how much I would get ‘from other sources’ and he re- plied ‘Oh, about as much more.’ ” Senator Lorimer’s attorney objected to this answering that the ‘other sources’ were entirely outside the case. Jackpot Mentioned. “This brings up,” he said, “what has been referred to as the ‘Jackpot.’ By the words of the witness—‘other sources’ —it is shown that it has no connection with the election of Senator Lorimer.’’ To which Attorney Austrian replied: “We claim this line of testimony is relevant because we will show that the Democratic State senators and repre- sentatives who voted for Senator Lori- mer voted for him as a part of a system in which their votes on other measures and their vote for Senator Lorimer were cc-related. We are trying to show there was a general state of corruption in that Legislature and men there were trying to bribe others.’’ The committee retired into exécutive session to consider admissibility of this line of evidence, White’s Testimony. White’s answer, which brought on the argument relative to the “jack pot,” was: “I saw Browne May 25, the day before I voted for Lorimer, and asked him what I was to get. He said to me: ‘You are not afraid to leave that to me are you?’ I replied, ‘No, I am not afraid, but I would like to know.’ Then he said, ‘You will get $1000 ready cash, but keep that under your hat, for I am sus- picious of that little- place about here they call Joliet.” Then I asked what I would get from other sources and he repliied: ‘About as much more.’ ”’ The issue between the attorneys was clear cut, Attorney Austrian insisting that the ‘‘jack-pot’’ testimony was ma- terial and admissible and Attorney Han- ecy as vigorously arguing against this | admission. The committee considered the ad- missibility of the “jackpot” testi- mony for some time in executive seg- sion, and upon returning to the hear- ing room Chairman Burrows and other Senators questioned the wit- ness concerning his understanding of the promtse of money from other sources. White said he had heard rumors of what was known as a “jackpot” to be divided among legislators for “strangling or passing bills.” Yn re- sponse to a question from Chairman Burrows, White said: “I considered it all a part of: the agreement—the $1000 and my share of the ‘jackpot.’ ” Satisfied to Get 81000. Senator Gamble asked: “Was the money from other sources part of your promise to vote for Sena- tor Lorimer, or did it have an influ- cence on your vote?” “1 think it had an influence,” replied White. ‘Would you have voted for Senator T.orimer for that $1000?" asked Chairman Burrows. “Yes, I think I would,” replied White after some hesitation. Senator Heyburn then asked the wit- | ness: “This conversation you have related did not mean to you that you would get any more than the $1000 for voting for Senator Lorimer?’ ‘No, I did not think so,”’ was the an- swer. After a whispered conference with his colleagues, Chairman Burrows §an- nounced the committee would give its ruling later on the formal motion of Attorney Hanecy, to exclude all testl- mony relating to the ‘‘jackpot.” With the admissibility of the testi- mony relating to the so-called jack- pot still in abeyance, White was asked to relate his later dealings .with Browne, The witness testified he wag paid $150 by Browne in Spring- field and early in June in the Briggs House he received $850, Letters from Browne and White were read by Attorney Austrian, who then took up the visit of White to st.

Their daughter Natalie, = brought her parents together after re than a year of estrangement, is the keystone on which the new home is to be builded. The famous artist believed he could do better work in Zanesville than any- where else. His wife believed sine could be happler in New York than anywhere else, so they parted. Now it is agreed that they will live part of each year in New York and part in Zanesville, the ostensible reason being that Natalie, who is 11 years old, needs the advan- tages of New York schools and 7/anes- ville vacations.

The father, John C.

His only fault was a weakness for drink, and [ am convinced that this was responsible for the accident. There was no reason for him to attémpt self-destruction.” Young Stubbs .was married to Miss Marguerite Wheeler of New York, last June and after the honeymoon trip, came here to accept. the newly-created position of general manager for the Union Pacific for this territory.

PIRL LOVED FOR 14 YEARS. PROVES TO BE ONLY MYT Jeweler Charges That‘Invent- or Used Imaginary Woman to Encourage Loans.

s HARTFORD, Conn., Sept. 2.—When George Osborne of Southington, Conpn., Giscovered that the young woman whom ne had loved and desired for 14 years to marry did not exist and never had existed, he caused the arrest of William Karnes, also of Southington, an expert mechanic and inventor. The charge against Barnes is that he defrauded Osborne of $6000 in the period when Csborne longed to lead Miss Gladys Wilson to the altar. és Fourteen years ago, Barnes, it is as- serted, entered Osborne’s watch and jewelry repairing shop and displayed a mechanica! invention. He interested Os- borne, who advanced money to promote the invention in Philadelphia. Barnes gol several other loans and each time made a trip to Philadelphia. Osborne was growing impatient for some return of his investment when one day Barnes returned from Phila- delphia. He said nothing to Osborne of the invention, but was glowing with ac- counts of a Miss Gladys Wilson he had met and who he was sure Osborne would be delighted to meet. It was aranged that Osborne should write a letter to the young woman and Barnes promised to deliver it and to praise Osborne tactfully, but strongly. Os- borne then loaned more money to Barnes, he says. His correspondence with Gladys Wilson thrived. Although he never saw her picture, Osborne fell deeply in love with her. All the while their mutual friend, Parnos, was being well taken care of by Osborne. Loans were forthcoming readily for the promotion of the inven- tion. It is not on the market yet. Gladys Wilson is goné—that Is, if a per- sen can go who never was. Osborne doesn’t know which makes him more indignant and sorrowful—the loss 8f his money or the shattering of kis romantic dreams.

In talking of his trip and his impres- sions, the Sultan said: “I like beer better every day; it makes me content.”’ “Why don't you start a brewery Jolo when you get back?’ asked, , ““‘Maybe I will do that very thing,’? he answered. “Paris was very magnificent and I Was greatly pleased there,’’ he said. New York Greatest of All. “And then I went to London, and that great city pleased me more than Paris; and then I went to New York and thar city impresses me more than both of the others put together.”’ “What appeared to be the greatest of the things you have seen in New: York?” the Sultan was asked. “That would be hard to answer,’’ h replied; ‘for all that I have gazed upon looked great and fine to me. On my way up the bay, when I stood with Col. Scott and looked out upon New York, I could hardly believe what my eyes told me I saw. Never in all my life have I seen such huge houses, and in he was “there are so many of them. We've noth- ing like that in Jolo. Some of those big buildings looktd to me as high as Siassi is long, and Siassi is an island, let me tell you. “And then,” continued the Sultan, “I like so much this great road you call Broadway. Really, I believe that there were more people in that street than I have people back there in the islands. Marvels at Fine Clothes, “And don't they wear fine clothes! I have seen fine things in Singapore and some few in Jolo, but never did I be- lieve I should live to see women so gor- geously dressed as some of those that stopped and looked at me when I walked down Broadway. “You know, I could not understand why they wanted to look at me, for I was never so clad.

St. Charles mourned its ill-luck Sun- day when, as its streets were filling with visitors to the horse show and racing meet, a south breeze began to blow and citizens and guests had to hold handkerchiefs to their noses. The odor from the Standard Reduction and Chemical Co.’s plant at Sands, across the Missouri River, was the cause. As depositions are being taken daily in an attempt to get legal redress against the reduction plant, it was sup- posed that everything possible would be done to make the smell less ob- noxious. But if any such attempt was made, it was fruitless, for St. Charles had to hold its nose until about noon, when the wind shifted it& direction.

Guests at the Terminal Hotel were entertained Sunday night by the antics of a tall, dark, stout man, who regis- tered as Jack Jeffries and said he was the brother of James J. Jeffries, de- feated heavyweight champion. After going to his room and making a quick change of clothing, the mys- terious guest bounded into the lobby wearing a white sweater and a blue cap. ‘I’m a bear,” he said, “and nobody will have to rock me to sleep.” His announcement that he was Jack Jeffries caused an admiring crowd of. guests and bellboys to gather around him. *“‘My brother, Jim, lost that fight witn Johnson because he was doped,” he ex- claimed. ‘‘Two hours before he left his training camp to go to the ring a glass of drugged vichy water was given to him.

I used to work at the Olympia Athletic Club in Los Angeles and you don’t look like Jack to.me.”’ “Well, I may have changed some but I’m Jack, all right,’ said the athletic guest. He departed on a midnight train. “I‘m going to meet Jim in Kansas City,”” he said. “After we talk it over you may hear something startling about this drugging business.”’

STRONG TITLE FIGURE “SEVEN DAYS” AT THE CENTURY. (4 EVEN .DAYS,” the Play that that has kept New York laugh- ing for over a year, opened at the Century Theater for a two-weeks' stay Sunday evening. The largest first- night audience of the season began laughing with the rise of the curtain and kept it up until sides ached and eyes were moist with tears of laughter. The plot—introduced through a side window by a burgilar’s kit, almost drowned in laughter by a fat man and a psychic believer—wavers 4nd stretehes. throws out little side lines to grasp all humor in sight until it- has more laugh- compelling situations than were ever thought of in comedy before.

Political Grafters Defeated by Honest Legislator and Newspaper.

“The Member from Ozark,’ Augustus Thomas’ new drama of Missouri life, which began a week’s engagement at the Olympic last night, teaches the truth that legislative graft and lobby corrup- tion may flourish like a green bay tree for a time, but that such evils are sure- ly overcome and rendered futile if bravely fought by one or two honest public servants and a newspaper de- and a Le

tempt to assassinate Gov. Holt, the honest Chief Executive who is seeking promotion to the United States Senate. Here, of course, is an exaggerated and CE

improbable happening, but the scene is well handled and, if one can forget its unreality, it becomes effec- tive in developing the play’s story and making more emphatic the ultimate de- feat of the corruptionists responsible for this attempted crime. Désha Poult- ney, the “member from Ozark,’’ re- ceives the bullet intended for Gov. Holt, but is not dangerously wounded. The happening, indeed, is a fortunate thing for Desha, inasmuch as it compels the Governor's daughter to reveal her love for him, wherefore, in the act that fol- lows, their romance reaches its happy ending, coincidentally with that- of Hancock McCall and Desha Poultney’s sister and of the Governor of Missour! and the ‘reformed’ woman lobbyist. The conventional nature of this finish is obvious, bit: it seemed greatly to please last nicht’s audience. The comedy of “The Member Frém Ozark"’ is excellent, and there are many bright lines, with an occasional stroke of ‘“‘native color’ that adds to the piay’s ; value. Missouri playgoers will deter.

The case against the Rev. William E. Rutledge, an East St. Louis Baptist minister, formerly editor of the Weekly Message, who was charged with using the mails to defraud in connection with offering pianos with subscriptions to his paper, has been thrown out of court at the request of United States District Attorney Trautmann. Trautmann told a Post-Dispatch re- porter Monday that he had taken this action by permission of the postoffice authorities. Pastor Rutledge was con- victed on one count by a jury in the Federal Court in East St. Louis last May. Judge Wright granted him a new trial on the ground that the evidence was not sufficient for a verdict. Trautmann says ne applied to ths postoffice inspectors for more evidence, es he did not feel that a conviction could be obtained that would hold be- fcre the same Judge with the same evP. cence. Whey they informed him that they were unable to produce new evi- dence he asked permission to have the case thrown out. According to the evidence at his triali in May, the Rev. Mr. Rutledge offered in the fall of 19097 through advertise- ments in his paper a $350 piano for 2 yearly. subscriptions at 25 cents each. Mrs. Lizzie Hatch had obtained the sub- scriptions, but failed to get the piano. Rutledge’s defense was that he had never heard from her in regard to the matter. There were four other counts in the indictment, but the jury returned a conviction only on the Hatch count. Rutledge testified that ‘he had made an arrangement with a Michigan piano

Special to the Post-Dispatch. SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 26.—With all the suspected principals and accessories in custody, .the police believe the mys- tery of the death of Miss Eva Swan is about cleared. Miss Swan was a stenographer and disappeared five months ago. After two days and nights of silence, Marie Messerschmidt, the nurse, held in detinue since Friday night, in tCon- nection with the death of Miss Swan, following the finding of the girl’s body beneath the cement flooring of the base- ment of a vacant house, confessed to the police that she had knowledge of the operation’ performed by Dr. James Grant upon Miss Swan, and that she attended the girl after the operation. Doctor Under Arrest. Dr. Grant was arrested, with the nurse and late today Paul Parker, a former Leland Stanford University stu- dent, who lived in the house where Miss Swan roomed, was taken to the police station and placed in detinue. The nurse was induced to tell the story by her brother-in-law, August Bor- man of Oakland, who visited her at the city prison. He showed her a picture of her dead mother, pleading with her to tell the police everything, impressing upon her that this would be her moth- er’s wish. The young woman fainted and upon her recovery became hysteri- cal. When she was quieted she agreed to tell the entire story to detectives. Nurse Confesses All. Following the confession Dr. Grant was led from the cell and brought into the desk sergeant’s room, where Miss Messerschmidt was seated.

: TEN COMMITTEESHIPS. "In an address at the banquet of Republican ed- Ytors Dr. Watson of Indiana, who is now on the ‘stump for the stand-patters in this State, said: “TI told Uncle Joe that I could take ten good com- ‘mittee appointments and destroy insurgency.” The rest of his speech shows that his opinion has not changed to this day. He still believes that ‘ith committee appointments and patronage he “€ould control the whole Republican vote in Con- ‘gress. ') That is the measure of Mr. Watson; and, in a “way,-it is the measure of the stand-patters gen- ‘erally. To them there is nothing in politics but spoils for the politicians and protection for the ‘Dig interests. So besotted are they in this cynic ‘disdain that they actually call men from Indiana ‘t) come over to Missouri and preach it to the _ people that the distribution of ten committee- “ships would have silenced every Republican in the House who was defending the interests of the people. i A Ar — a .. Mr. Ballinger has discovered. some more and worse skullduggery in Alaska, is a current .sumor. But, of course, he is keeping this also .7 to himself.

= = — a WHERE WOMEN CAN VOTE, BUT WON'T. “ Under the provisions of the Michigan Constitu- tion, supposed to be a model affair when ap- proved by the people two years ago, women tax- payers may vote on questions of bond issues and municipal ownership. This concession in suffrage “Was made by the constitutional convention at the conclusion of a vigorous a by advocates of woman suffrage. In Detroit in November there comes up, in addition to several issues of bonds, the long-ex- pected and much-discussed question of municipal ownership of street-railways. Detroit has been the center of all agitation for 3-cent fares since x68. Since that time, too, the street railway matter has held a secure place as the paramount municipal issue. On this great local question it is estimated that 20,000 Detroit women are eligible to vote. Only 600, or 8 per cent, of the number were interested enough to register. Can it be that the women, with their usual perversity, want merely the right to vote, and, having attained it, care noth- ing about it?

THE ROOSEVELT ISSUE. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Sept. 2.—The World to- day prints a page editorial headed “Roosevelt's Revolution,’’ in part as fol- lows: “Do the people of New York want the new socialism of Theodore Roosevelt or do they want to maintain the republic? That. is one of the issues before the Saratoga convention.’’ “Do the people of New York want Theodore Roosevelt for President in 1912? That is one of the issues before the Saratoga convention.’’ “Do the people of New York want an- @ther panic? That is one of the issues before the Saratoga convention.” “Do the people of New York want to overturn the Constitution of the United States? That is one of the is- sues before the Saratoga convention.” ‘Do the people of New York want a servile and degraded supreme court of the United States which will be a mere regigger of popular and transitory pas- sion? That 1s one of the issues before the Saratoga convention.” “Do the people of New York want to reduce the states to the level of sub- ject provinces and centraHze all the vital powers of government in the hands of a Washington bureaucracy dominated oy the President? That is one of the is- sues before the Saratoga convention. “Do the people of New York want democracy or do they want an ultimate dictatorship? That is oné of the issues before the Saratoga convention. “Whatever their decision, let them et least have a clear understanding of the momentous question that is before them.” ; Mr. Roosevelt has set forth to revolu- tionize government in, thé United States. It is a peaceful revolution, but it reaches to the.very roots of Americaa institutions. The scope and purposes of this revolution were defined by Mr. Roosevelt in his Western speeches. Cot trol of the Republican State convention in New York is the first practical step toward carrying them into effect. Con- trol of the convention involves control of the organization. Control of organ- ization means control of the New Yorx delegation to the Republican national convention in 1912. If the new natior.- alism controls this 1912 convention, Mr. Roosevelt will be the Republican can- didate for president. Again in tha White House, he will attempt to com- plete his revolution by the sheer force of executive power.”’ “The issue of boss rule which Mr. Roosevelt has raised in New York is only a blind, a decoy. Mr. Roosevelt is himself the most absolute and arrogant boss that has dominated the Republican party in this State, not excepting Thur- low Weed. The issue of direct nomina- tions is likewise a blind, a decoy. There is no pr ition for real direct nomina- tions before the people of-the State. The bill which Mr. Roosevelt champions is only the shreds and tatters of a direct primary measure. It is only a name. “Mr. Roosevelt is no longer satisfied with the kind of government that seeks merely to protect life, liberty and prop- erty. * * * Here Mr. Roosevelt takes his place with the most extremely radi-

cal element of American Socialism, the Socialist-Leber party, * * © SR ee neta Ea ay Sa vs eae Sy pt sicak habbo, She aa eM PP ES ae aoe oo ge = . oe " weet se Fa ae. reget =s u

the Socialist- Labor party is more .con- servative that Mr. Roosevelt.’’ The World ends its review thus: “The issue is before the Saratoga con- vention. Do they want Democracy or @ Socialistic dictatorship? “Do they want the republic or do they want Roosevelt and revolution?”

During the last two weeks I have received many letters from distressed young men whose fiancees were in the country on their.vacations. These forsaken young men, toiling away in the city, complained that they received short, eurt letters from the girls of their choice: and sometimes no Ictters at all. Even worse was the plight of some of the young men who wrote that they knew their fiancees were receiving attentions from Lapel redtin atthe desta os. alg Doesn't somebody bump us and bump us hard, . .

One who has not suf- fered as I have can hardly appreciate what it means for a man to lose his wife and be left alone with two lit- tle children. You would think that My boy and girl would have been a comfort to me? They were, in cne ' pense, but they were also a sourca of agony, for they were sadly lonely without the mother who had petted them and made them her constant , companions. _ Weeks and months passed.

MAGLL BROS., 1221 St. Lois Av., St. Louie, Mo, I will not deceive myself, as some , widowers might, into beliéving that I loved Edith madly, for I did not, and she never put me in the confes- gional as to the degree and quality of the feeling I gave her. For that I was thankful and valued her affec- tion the more. I acknowledge I felt a little queer one day when, as I let myself into the house with my latch key, I over- heard my wife say to an intimate friend who was calling on her: “I, myself, do not usually approve of second marriages, for I think they are often only makeshifts. But ours is different, for I know that my hus- ‘band and I love each other as few other couples do. I know, too, that he never really cared for anyone else as he does for me.” I love Edith all the more for this sublime faith she has in me. I will not mar it by having her suspect that Myra is ever sadly in my thoughts. There is where some hus- bands bring about marital happiness. I find that Edith does not cf&re to talk of Myra, although she has always been very gentle and sweet when I have spoken of her. But, loving me as she does, it cannot be pleasant for her to remember tbat she had predecessor. —~ Good | Magazine - Aren't some of your rivals around doing things, : I wonder? “You are starred on the bills and are chummy with fame, ‘ The man on the corner could tell you your name At three o'clock in the morning; But can you depend on the mind of the mob?

_ ~ _ ~ a — ————— with the Brown: cat Sportsman's Park Sunday. It was a truly remark- able game by the big right-hander. Truescale’s scratch, which was just out of George McBride’s reach, was the anly hit made off Johnson. He didn't Pass a batter, while his support was perfect. That means that only 28 hat- ters faced him. “However, the game will go down as a big one on Johnson's excellent carcer as a twirler. In it he accomplished a record. He struck out 11 batters, not a mark for a single contest, but the 11 strikeouts enabled him to pass the world’s record for a season’s work in this respect. ‘He now owns 303 strike-outs for the s@ason, two more than was made by George Edward Waddell, late of the Browns, when the eccentric southpaw was a member of the Athletics of Phil- adelphia in 1903. Strack Out 11 Mén. ¢ Prior to ths game, Johnson had struck Out 292 batters this season. He needed tine whiffs to equal the “‘Rube’s”’ rec- ord. He tied the mark when he struck éut John Lawrence Corriden in the seventh inning. Then he passed it when George Stone, following Corriden in the Datting order, fanned in the same round. was a-bad ball that George swung for strike No. 3 and Catcher Ain- fmith dropped it. He was forced to hrow Stone out at first. .Then Johnson added good measure to lot ing@the ninth inning when he Struck out the renowned Dudley Criss, premier pinch hitter, who had gone up to bat for Pitcher Malloy. =Johnson distributed his strikeouts in fice fashion, excepting in the first ‘round, when he retired Truesdale, Cor- fiden and Stone, the first three batters té face him. In only the eighth inning 4id he fail to strike out a batter. Wal- lace and Griggs were the only Brownies who failed to be baffled by Johnson. “9 Wild Pitch Dida’t Hurt. The only other blotch on his escutch- |, eon—Truesdale’s scratch hit was the Grst—was when Johnson turned loose # wild pitch after Frankie had reached Great base. It really was a passed ball and enabled the Brownie second sacker to chase to third; but as Johnson then struck out Corriden and Stone and forced Northen to tap to Cunningham at second base, he managed to hand the Browns a row of ciphers. Only a few of the spectators realized That Johnson had accomplished a great record. When Stone swung and missed three in the seventh, a small burst of Wpplause was heard. Catcher Charley Street watched the game from the Washington rathskeller and when Stone was fanned he called to Johnson and motioned that he had accompUshed the great feat. » As Johnson will undoubtedly take his Yegular turn on the mound until the end of the season, he is sure to ploce whe record at a notch which will be hard W reach: At any rate, the St. Louis tans saw a remarkable game Sunday.

B. Johnson of the American Léague last night. ‘I un- derstand President Robison of the St. Louis Nationals has made a proposition to Mr. Murphy regarding the early completion of the remaining games booked between these clubs and from all reports the Chicago club alone is holding out.’’ “Interest in the major league races is bound to slump with the approach of the cold weather,’’ continued President Johnson. “and it is absolutely essential that the league seasons close before the middle of October. Cold weather already has cut in on the sport and in order to make this series for the highest honors .in baseball the huge success it should be the club owners should arrange their games so0 that the. pennant winning clubs might meet urder favorable weather conditions.’’ COCHEMS’ ELEVEN TO GET FIRST TRYOUT SATURDAY Eddie Cochems will next Saturday start his Barnes University football eleven on its second annual attempt to demonstrate, the fact that the Barnes team is stronger than the St. Louis U. eleven. Barnes will play Shurtleff Col- lege Saturday. Almost the first words Cochems said when his men came on the field for their first practice of the season, last week, was to the effect that they would have to hustle as they simply had to beat St. Louis U.’s score against Shurtleff. Cochems will undoubtedly have a strong team composed of men who are capable of running up a big tally, be- cause of a crack back field. Cochems will drive his players hard all this week, starting Monday afternoon at Handlan’s park. SAN FRANCISCO MAY LOSE OUT ON COAST PENNANT CHICAGO, Sept. 26.—Fred Walker, former Maroon, Cincinnati Red and New York Giant, who was identified here through the medium of a picture as the same flinger who recently star- tled the Pacific Coast fans by his sen- sational winning streak, may cost the San Francisco club five games—all won by his own. hands. Walker, it is said, has been pitching for the Seals under the name of Mitch- ell. In the event the five games accred- ited to him are tossed out by the pow- ers that be, San Francisco will be elim- inated from the pennant race on the Coast.

MITCHELL IS WINNER IN GAME NO. 1; ~. MALLOY WAS NO MATCH FOR JOHNSON OY MITCHELL won a 2-1 verdict over ‘'Dixie’’ Walker in the opening gzame of the double bill between the Browns Senators of Washington Sunday. but Malloy. another Houston (Texas League) product. had to be content with the blank end of a 3-0 tilt with Walter Johnson in the final. R and young Mitchell's game was fairly good. while Malloy didn't make a poor showing. As his team failed to make a singk run off Sohnson. he had no chance at all to win. It wasn’t the fault of the uwmpires—Egan behind the bat and Connolly on the bases— that the Senators didn’t take both ends of the bargain bill. They handed the best of it to the visitors in both games, but it just wagn’t in the cards for the Taftville athletes to take the opener. ; Mitchell got himself in bad in the first session by passing Cunningham after trvo were dead. He pilfered second and went to on Killefer’s high heave to Wallace. Then Somerlott also strolled. Gessler fol- lowed with a single to cepter that pushed Cunningham over. Somerlott tried for third on the hit. but was cut down on Northen’s nice throw to Corriden. That was all the scoring done by the Na- ttonals during the game. They made six more hits off Mitchell. who also passed two batters. but he held tight when men got on base. The Browns didn’t break into the run column until the seventh, when they pif'ed up a total of two. enough to win. Walker passed Corridon as a starter. Stone moved him up with a sacrifice while Northen ad- vanced him on an infield out. Hartzell poled a single to left and John Lawrence scored. Wallace followed jvith a base fit to rig*t which sent Hartzell to third. Hartzell and Wallace then tried a double steal, Roy scor- ing while Rhody was being retired by Henry and McBride. McBride played the | Walker held the Browns to six hits but weakened in the seventh while Mc- Bride also helped the locals to their second run. Griggs turned a nice play in the fourth when he reached out for a one-handed stop of a wide throw from Wallace off Henry. rf saved an error for the Scot. There were an unusual number of foul balls knocked during both games and they kept Elberfeld, Corridon, Killefer, Henry, Stephens and Ainsmith backing over to the stands for the funny twisters. As related elsewhere on the page, John- son struck out eleven Brownies and al- lowed only one hit in the second game. Malloy was found for six hits, four of these coming in two innings in which the Senators tallied their three runs. The counting began in the fourth when, with one gone, Somerlott put a single in left. Gessler poled to the same terrf- tory for three bases, Somerlott tallying. McBride followed with a base hit over second and Gessler tallied. Run No. 3 came in the fifth. Elber- feld started with a single and moved up when Cunningham drew a pass. Somerlott forced Cunningham at second after which Elberfeld and Somerlott pulled a double steal, the former scoring. BROWNS GAME CALLED OFF; DOUBLE-HEADER TUESDAY Owing to continued rain, today’s game between the Browns and the Athletics, at Sportsman’s Park, was ealled off by the ;local management.

NEW MEN WEAKEN HYDE PARK TEAM The Hyde Parks put up the worst ex-

hibition of baseball in the career of gthe | club, Sunday. at Kulage’s Park, and the West Ends of Chicago won both games of a double-header; 5—2 and 7—3. The ‘Hyde Parks were simply disorganized. At one time in the second game Walter Devoy, in center field, and Jim Hackett, first base, were the only regulars of the Hyde Parks playing in the positions that they have filled all season. Mertens was forced to catch for a time and made errors.. Mertens is right fielder. Kohler, third baseman, played in left field and messed things up. Walter Wolff, the reg- ular second baseman, essayed to play short. He booted almost everything that came his way. The Hyde Parks’ strong points, team work and base running, were sadly missed. The managers of the club simply made the mistake of putting four minor lea uers in the place of the regulars and shi t- ing the line up in an effort to strengthen the club. Instead they broke up the scheme of play that wan two city cham- pionships for the team. : The West Ends played eat ball be- hind Scanian, who pitch both tent 99 eaten is a brother of Scanian of ly Dale pitched the first game for the Hyde Parks and Bernard the second.

Heavy greens, caused by the recent rains, was the most apparent cause of the lack of low scores turned in the qualifying round of the Triple A Club championship golf tournament, played Saturday and Sunday. The honors for low score were equally divided by Carl

into a Piepho and D.-A. FYetcher, each turn- ing in an 80 against a bogey of 74. But even at that, the average scores were better than they have been in the qualifying rounds of tournaments held recently at other clubs in this city. For instance, the 16 players who qualified in the championship class all made scores of 88 or better, while the same number of players qualifying in class A were all from 89 to 92 inclusive. The winner and runner-up in each class will receive a handsome silver cup, The Triple A championship trophy. will be held by the winner for one year and must be won three times by the same player before it becomes his per- sonal property. The present Triple A Cup has been won by Guy Oliver, Chris Kenney, Frank Fitzgibbons and C. C. Butts. All matches in the first round of match play must be played by next Saturday afternoon, Oct. 2. Mr. Ross, the club secretary, states positively that all matches not played by that time will go by default.

As Sebas- tian’s team won Saturday's game, it gave the locals the series, 2-1." In the opener of Sunday’s matinee, Patton held the Cuban to two hits and went over, 80. He was opposed by Perera, who allowed five safeties. Metzger, playing second, gathered three of these drives Comstock, who belongs to the Car- dinals, was beaten in the second ganio by Villa, 2-1.

others, all of whom complained that Tyrus would not work with the rest of the club when at bat, owing to his desire to fatten his average and win the championship auto. It probably had something to do with the ‘‘cyclitis’” which forced Ty into retirement for some time—until he found that his stand-pat policy on a .367 batting per- centage was not going to stop Lajoie from hitting harder than ever. The great evil of having a team built ground one man is shown by the plight the club drops into if anything hap- pens to that important ‘‘cog’’ in the machine.

HAT first year rule doesn’t seem to - be making any marvelous head- way at St. Louls University, not- withstanding the announcement of the blue and white authorities that the eleven would be washed whiter than snow this year. The star of the first day’s game, Saturday, was young Zach- ritz, who last year was on the McKin- ley High School eleven. Now, there is nothing wrong about employing freshmen in the lineup ex- cept that the teams St. Louls U. faces frown on the practice in several in- stances. Missouri, particularly, will look with a cold eye on this violation of Mis- sourl Valley principles, and will insist that first year men be kept on the side lines. Bender explained that the team, this year as last, would use freshmen only against elevens that did not follow the first-year code. But the effect of this is disastrous on team work in that with the freshmen out an entirely new organization must be constructed by the coach to oppose those elevens observing the eligibility rules. What that means was made perfect- ly plain last year, at St. Louis Univer- sity, in those games where the first- year men were barred.

You see, the players have to- simply unlearm all the habits that have come to be ‘part of their football nature. Tackling Not Seriously Hampered. “As far as the tackling is concerned, there is practically no difference froin last year, as the majority of tackles are made with one foot on the ground anyway. If at any time the man who is going to make a tackle sees that & miss will mean a touchdown, the’ only thing for him to do is to make the fly- ing tackle and take the penalty of five yards. “One point or which the referee and umpire will have to keep their eyes this year is this 2-yard proposition. We have to be able to judge as quick as a flash whether a forward paes started at least five yards back of the scrim- mage line and finished not over ™ yards beyond. Also, the field judge cannot be a rheumati¢c old fogy this year. Hea ought to be a man with a fine knowledge of the game and ons who is fast on his feet, so that he can be right with every play. *T think a good place for him to be most of the time is at a position just 20 yards ahead of the line of scrim- mage, so that he can judge accurately on the distance of the forward passes, etc.” One little point we overlooked at the end of the first quarter in last Satur- day’s game was the exact manner of placing the ball in the corresponding position at the other end of the field, when starting off the second quarter. For instance, it is easy enough to know that if the ball was on Shurtleff’s i8- yard line in St. Louis U.’s possession it would go on the 18-yard line at the other end of the field; but In addition we have to keep track of what down it was and how many yards are still to gained, ee OLD SORES DUE TO DISEASED BLOOD: Pt blood.

READING LEADS SHARP ADVANGE |: ON WALL STREET = Price Advances $4 Per Share on an Active Buying Movement.

NEW YORK, Sept. 26.—The stock mar- ket developed decided strength in the late trading and all the active favorites rose 1 to 2 points. Reading was the leader in the advance, rising $4 per share on a hard buying movement. The clos- ing was fairly active. Stocks opened steady in Wall stre«t today, with a sprinkling of gains throughout the list. London was high- er before our opening. Speculation in both markets is quiet. Union Pacific was strong in this market. Foreign traders are inclined to loox with more favor on American securities. but as yet there has been only a minor improvement in the general speculative demand. The strength of discounts in the open market at Berlin and a firmer tendency in the London market seem to assure an increased interest shortly by both institutions. ' The bond market still shows distinct signs of improvement, and as activity in speculation, after a period of stagna- tion, usually starts in investment bonds, traders look on this as a hopeful sign. Several important bond flotations arc impending, and will be shortly an- nounced, seeming to indicate a turn for the better in general market sent. ment both here and abroad.

FIRM CABLES GIVE COTTON A STEADY UPWARD TENDENCY NEW YORK, Sept. 26.—-The cotton mar- ket opened firm at unchanged prices to 10 points higher and shortly afterward sold at a net gain of from 13 to 16 points, as a re- sult of overing, higher cables than expected and reports from Liverpol tha® the South was offering spot less freely. Leading spot interests bought September at the open and Liverpool was a considerable buyer “early. The market was less active towards midday and September eased off to a net loss of about 2 points under scat- tered liquidation but other positions held steady and were about 13 to 15 points net higher at midday on continued cov- ering and a little support from bull leaders. Possibly the appearance of kill- ing frost in Nebraska accounted for some of the covering although it was generally considered too early in the season for any serious apprehension.

a GAINS ARE MADE BY LOCAL STOCKS Only Five Shares Sell at Regular Session, but Bids Are Higher.

Local securities were quiet today, only five shares of Railways preferred at $41.87% changing hands during the en- tire session. Small gains were recorded on’ some of the leading issues in the bid and asked prices. The bond list was firm throughout. Opposing forces are at work in the local market at present. The prohibi- tion campaign is having a tendency to make professional buyers cautious, while the improving bond market and the slow advance taking place on Wall Street makés’ for confidence in the fu- ture, Odd-lot buyers have been coming into this market in a quiet way, and the floating supply in nearly all issues, with the exception of the traction stocks, has been pretty well cleaned up. This will permit of a quick advance should the market position show any material change for the better. MONDAY’S SESSION. CLOSING QUOTATIONS.

ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH.

MONDAY EVENING, ‘SEPTEMBER 26, 1910.

FEDERAL REPORT SAYS RAILROADS CONTROL WHARVES Government Official Declares St. Louis Owns Only 8 Miles River Front. LOW RENTALS CITED Annual Receipts by City From Dock Leases in 1908-9 Were $76,501.

By Wire From the Washington Rureau of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, Sept. 26.—Develop- ment of American waterways will find one of the greatest obstacles in the fact that water terminals are {n control of corporations, according to a report of Herbert Knox Smith, Commissioner of Corporations, made public today. The report arrives at the following conclusion: “The extensive ownership or control of terminal facilities by railroads is one of the serious factors in the entire problem. There is urgent necessity for action which shall prevent this railway ownership (or, for that matter, other private ownership) of terminal prop- erty from resulting in unjust discrimi- nation, and unnecessary butdens upon commerce. “There is also urgent need for a far greater degree of practical co-ordina- tion between railroads and general water traffic, so as to unite into one effective machine the entire transporta- _. tion facilities of the country.” St. Louis Wharves, Rented, _ Referring to St. Louis, the report ¢qshows that a great amount of its 19 piles of water front is already owned or controlled by individuals and corpo- dpa tions, Under the heading “St. Louls,” the report says! “This is one of the most !mportant river ports. The total frontage within the city is about 19 miles. The chief landing is the so-called ‘centra] wharf,’ ‘owned by the city, one and one-third miles, paved. There are seven whart- boats here, owned by water lines, which appear to be closely associated. There is some warehousé space, about eight elevators and a little transshipping ma- chinery. Tow Rentals for Docks. “There are aiso about seven special grants of right to lay track on the water front, five of them for two miles each, for which no comp8énsation is provid- ed. “Most of the unimproved’ city frontage is under monthly leases, usually at about $2 per foot per month, the lessees being rrainly industrial companies. Out of about 4 of such monthly leases, the average monthly rental is about $95. The city also charges $1.50 per foot per year for the privilege of mooring wharf boats ut paved city landings. The total city receipts from the river frontage for 1908-9 were $76,509.91. Of this the largest single item was $50,664.08, from railroads. The expenditures were $52,170.54, “Two or more railroad traeks run along the top of the river bank for about five miles, partly on city land. Despite the close’ proximity between railroads and river lines, especially at the Central Wharf, there is no rall- rdad-water co-ordination of any general character. This is especially remark- able in view of the importance of St. Louis both as a river port and as a commercial] center.” a a eee

Woman Speaker Declares They Can Force Adoption of Proposed Amendment.

If the prohibition amendment is lost in Missouri it will be because of lazi- ness in the churches, in the opinion of Mrs. Mary Harris Armor, national lec- turer of the W. C. T. U., who ad- dressed the Ministerial Alliance of St. Louis Monday at the Certral Y. M. ce idee “The people are watching to see what the churches are going to do,’’ the rap- id-fire prohibition orator told the min- isters. ‘‘Instead of saying ‘Hold the fort until I get there,’ it is your duty to say ‘Get out of the way, I am coming.’ ’ Mrs. Armor paid her respects to the Rev. Jacob Meeker, who has made sev- eral speeches against prohibition, by saying: “Beware of false prophets who come in sheep’s clothing. Whenever’ the liquor gang gets one preacher on its side it paints him as a hero and turns him loose to debase humanity.” It was announced at the ministers’ meeting that. the headquarters of the temperance forces will be at 119% Pine street. Daily midday meetings will be held there from 12 to 1 p. m. Search for Quarters Made. The management of a downtown the- ater was criticised for asking $50 an hour rent for the playhouse in which to hold the daily meetings at the noon hour. The committee in charge of loca- tion reported that the owners of several buildings in the business district re- fused to rent their buildings for these meetings. The ministers pledged their sup- port to the parade to be held in St. Louis Oct. 22, and each will appoint representatives from his church and Sunday school to aid in making it a success, Mrs, Armor will be the guest of honor at a banquet at the Mercantile Club Monday night. About.140 tem- perance workers are expected to at- tend. Among the speakers will be the Rev. J. B. Toomay and Myron Waterman of Kansas City The local W. C. T. U. oy paying the expenses of Mrs. Armor’s visit here. She distinguished herself in the suc- cessful campaign for State-wide pro- hibition in her own State, Georgia. She is a remarkably fast talker, and has a strength of delivery which suggests a comparison with Mrs. Mary Ellen Lease, famous in Kansas tn the days before Carrie Nation. In opening her campaign at the King’s Highway Presbyterian Church Sunday afternoon, Mrs. Armor advocated pro- hibition on moral and financial grounds, but did not deny that illicit. liquor sell- ing would follow it. May Require 100 Years. ‘They say the blind tiger will spring up if we remove the_saloon,’’ she said. ‘The men who patron blind tigers are the product of the saloon, and it may take 100 years after the cause is wiped out before the effects will be completely done away.” She declared Missouri to be the key to the national liquor situation, and predicted that if this State should go dry, the liquor interests tnroughout the country would suffer a death blow. ‘Tilinois and Indiana will follow tn the twinkling of an eye,’’ she prophe- sied, “and in five: years we will have won the victory all over the United States. “There will be plenty of jobs for the men thrown out of work by the closing of the breweries,’ she declared. ‘“‘They will get work in making the things that other workingmen will buy in increased quantities when they quit spending their money on liquor. The saloon keepers and bartenders can become re- tailers and clerks in the same mercan- tile lines, and there will be plenty of trade for them. Blames Saloon for Hungry Children. “In Atlanta, after prohibition had been in force for a year, a book store proprietor told me the sale of school books had increased five fold. Ten thousand school children in Chicago go to school hungry’ every morning. Tariff? It's the 7000 saloons in Chi- ‘cago.”’ Mrs. Armor is the guest of Mrs. I. H. Cadwalader at the -Missouri Baptist Sanitarium. She will speak at noon Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Satur- day at the dry campaign headquarters, 110 Pine street. Every night except Thureday and Saturday she will speak in some St. Louis church, closing Sun- day night with a rally*in the Odéon. Her Tuesday night date is at the Clif- ton Heights Presbyterian Church.

—_ JUSTICE TELLS JURY IT OUGH 70 BE INDICTED)

Verdict of Not Guilty for Woman Who Hit Another With Brick Stirs Criticism.

Justice Meyer told six jurymen in his court Monday that they ought to be indicted for failing to convict Mrs. Belle Spellmeyer of disturbing Mrs. Mary Hartman’s peace. The case grew out of a family feud between the Spellmeyers and Hartmans at Prospect Heights, north of Baden. At the tria! it was disclosed that Mrs. Hartman was the mysterious woman who recently piloted deputy sheriffs to a building in the rear of the Spellmeyer saleon where two men lost all of their clothing in a craps game. Whether the jury thought that Mrs. had been sufficiently pun- ished by the arrest of her husband and his guests was not disclosed in the verdict. Mrs. Hartman testified that Mrs. Spellmeyer attacked her with a brick Sept. 6 and at other times threatened to injure her. ‘Ty am surprised,” said Justice Meyers when the verdict was handed in. “If I had it in my power I would have ail of You taken before the grand jury. I listened to the evidence and it is my judgment that Mrs. Spellmeyer dis- turbed Mrs. Hartman’s peace.”’ At the time of the raid on the craps game the deputy sheriffs would not disclose the name of their ‘woman in- formant.

NO BIRTHDAY GIFT: WIFE QUITS HOME AND BRINGS SUIT Splendid Woman, Husband Says, but She Spent Too Much Money, .-If William R. Davis had given his wife, Clara, a birthday present, their lives might be running in ‘untroubled currents even now. But he did not, and she left his home in Richmond Heights, whereat he advertised that he would not be responsible for any debts she contracted. Davis told a Post-Dispatch reporter Monday that his wife was a splendid little woman, but that she liked to spend money. “She didn’t know the value of a dol- lar,” he explained. ‘I would give her the household money for the week and by Wednesday night it would be gone, with no provisions in the pantry. Final- ly it got to be so that I had to give her just a little money at a time. “She was 2 vears old last Tuesday. She took me shopping several times be- fore her birthday, and took pains to point out to me a $15: necklace she ad- mired. Husband Wants Children. “TI knew she wanted that necklace fcr a birthday present, but she had been so extravagant that I did not think she deserved it. So I didn’t give it to her. Wednesday she left the house and took cur two daughters with her. I suppose she will sue for divorce, and if she does T will contest it, because I want posses- sion of the children.’’ Mrs. Davis is an accomplished musi- cian, her husband says, and a model helpmeet except for her spending pro- clivities. The children are Margaret, 6 years old, and Evaline, 3. She is now living at 3919A West Belle place. She declined to discuss her nr with her husband. Davis is 50 years old. ness at 3921 Olive street. Wife Begins Divorce. Davis’ anticipation of a suit was ful- filled at noon, when Mrs. Davis file action for divorce. She gave a differ- ent reason for her departure from the home. When she asked her husband to supply her with money for. the household, he refused to give it to her and told her to go out and make it her- self, she avers. Davis has a violent temper, accord- ing to the petition, and struck his wife. It is further charged that hé didn’t provide enough clothes for her and the children. It is recited that he is worth $20,000, and makes $700 a month from his business. Mrs. Davis warts alimony and the custody of the chil- dren. He is in busi-
