HOT SPRINGS, Ark., 1¢.—The finding of two’sheets of memoranda on Jan. which were noted various sums ranging from $1100 to $56,000, each sum divid- ed by the numeral! four, in a hotel here a few days ago, led to the arrest last night of Charles H. Everett, who is said to be one of the most skillful for- gers in the. country and for whom sev- eral New York banks have been search- ing for a vear. Everett+was arrested on a specific charge of passing a forged New York draft for $1800 on the Peo- ples Savings Bank’ of Seattle. Several days ago a negro bellboy was sent with some beer to 9 room in a local] hotel. * Later he told the police that while in the apariment he had. seen great piles of money on a dresser table and in every available space in the room, where four men were sitting. The money was in large denominations and was apparently counted out to be divided. Only one man had registered at the hotel, and the other three were visiting him. $286,000 Divided, is Belief. The room was vacated a few hours later and the police were informed of what the negro had observed. Detect- ives went to the room and found the Slips of paper. Apparently $286,000 had been divided. In the opinion of the . police, ‘this money had been taken from a chain of Pacific Coast banks, through forged drafts. Banks all over the country were notified, it being suspected that some big thefts had been committed which later. would be reported. _scheme to defraud Rvolved coTisi expenditure of money and careful plan- ning. -At Seattle, it is said, he engaged an attorney to’collect an overdue note for $2300, purporiing to ‘be drawn by a Ketchan (Alaska) man, with instruc- tions to demand immediate payment with interest. When the dunning lawyer's letter started from Seattle to Ketchan, Ev- erett followed, it is reported, intercept- ed the letter at its uestination and re- mailed to the attorney a spurious draft for the amount of the note, with inter- est.

The attorney was elated at the quick settlement, but, of course, without in- troduction at a bank, the draft was worthless to the ewner. So the lawyer, desirous of collecting his fee, introduced his client, and payment promptly fol- lowed. So carefully did Everett plan his op- eration, it is said, that he visited Ketch- an several months before the swindle was committed and purchased a gen- uine draft for a model.

BALTIMORE, Jan. 16.—‘If there is such a thing as a dual personality in every man, it is shown here,” said Justice Grannan, in police court, in the case of E. Marshall Johnson, technical- ly charged with begging on the street. Johnson is State’s Attorney for Grant County, West Virginia. and also coun- sel for the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad. He is editor and owner of the Grant County Press, which is well rated in West Virginia. He is 8 years of age, of refined appearance and dresses well. Johnson had been before Justice Gran- nan three times on chargeg of begging, and in each instance, after furnishing proof of his identity, had been released with a reprima and warning. While in a cell(last night he sat hud- dled on_a bench in a corner, muttering to himeelf. “Why do you beg on the street, and why do you seem to lose your real self?’’ asked the Justice when Johnson was brought before him. “T don’t know,’’ replied the West Vir- ginian. “At times something comes over me and I cannot resist it. Then I go out on the street and beg money from people. I came here and registered at the Hotel Caswell. I did not intend to beg on the street, but this other self comes up; I forgot that I am State's Attorney for my county.

Admtral Barry’s request for retire- ment was received by the Navy De- partment by telegraph last Thursday. The fact that it was received by wire, instead of by mail, was by no means unprecedented.

In the 24 years of his life, Walter L. Gardner of St. Charles, has had the misfortune to suffer 2% fractures of various bones of his body. He also has suffered 65 dislocations, and has lost by accidents one finger on his right hand and three on his left. He is still somewhat disabled from his latest accident, which occurred New Year’s day, when a horse kicked him, breaking his left arm for the eighth time. But that was so much less of a calamity than previous ones which have befallen him, that he says he f@els in unusually good shape. Sister Dropped Him Gardner’s run of physical ‘bad luck began when he was 4 years old. His ——— dropped him, breaking his right eg This fracture healed, but caused u slight limp as he grew up. This defect was repaired when, at 8 years of * the legs were equalized by the break- ing of the left one. This resulted from a fall from a horse. He began breaking his arms in va- rious accidents soon afterward,: and while he has forgotten the order in which the various accidents occurred, he has kept count, and says that, in- cluding his latest mishap, he has 10 times had an arm broken. As a carpenter’s apprentice -in early youth he fell from a roof he was shingling, and broke his collarbone, his breastbone and six ribs. Three ribs were broken by a fall on the ice. A horse’s kick in the face last summer fractured his jawbone. Brother Contributes Accident. When he was 7 years old, a brother with whom he was playing chopped off three of the fingers of Walter's left hand. The right hand was first maimed a year ago, when one finger was removed by an accident with machinery. For all his troubles, Gardner is known as one of the most happy and optimistic of St. Charles young men. “I’ve probably been unlucky, as’ com- pared with people who have never had any accidents,” he says, “but to look at it the other way, I might have been killed in almost any one of these accidents of mine.” He has worked about horses for several years, and hopes to be able to continue such work, in spite of the part that horses have had in his fre- quent injuries.

PRIZE BEAUTY ON HAND ‘TO PROSECUTE ACCUSED MASHER Sorry He Gets a Postponement but Says Prisoner Cannot Discourage Her. Miss Pearl du Benrick of 2327 Union avenue, prize winner in a Post-Dispatch beauty contest, waited two hours Mon- day in the Clark Avenue Police Court to prosecute Martin Walsh on a charge of mashing, and was indignant when Walsh got a continuance by telling Judge Tracy he wanted to summons character witnesses. Miss du Benrick swished out of the courtroom with her Billie Burke hut thrown back and her pretty nose at an angle of 4 degrees. “If that man thinks he can tire me out. he is mistaken,”’ she declared. ‘I will be here Jan. 24, when the case is called again.’’ Walsh lives at 3134 North Newstead avenue. He was arrested Saturday evening after he had accosted the prize beauty on a downtown street. She rode in a patrol wagon with him to the Cen- tral Police Station, preferred charges against him, and then went to the Mis- souri Athletic Club to dine with Arthur

Goessling. While talking to a reporter there, Miss du Benrick, having jailed one maa. | permitting jmade another happy by

“MONDAY - EVENING, NG, JANUARY 18, INS BEAR THE BUTTER MARKET: PRICES TUMBLE Overproduction Forces to Avoid Failure. Bossy has kicked the bottom out of the Food Trust bucket, and it will not be long until one may eat real butter, eggs, poultry and cheese without having to be a millionaire. The cold-storage barons are about to be drowned by 4 deluge of milk, and they are preparing to jettison cargo to keep afloat. The cows of Illinois, Missouri, Iowa and Wisconsin have been “giving’’ this winter as they have before in the win- ter season. The result is such a supply of fresh butter that nobody wants stor- age butter and the storage supply will have to be sold at a loss to prevent failures. Storage poultry and eggs wil: go at reduced prices to even up on losses on butter. “More milk’”’ is the 2xpianation given by Joseph Hickel, commission man, of the impending disgorgement of millions of pounds of butter that has been held in Chicago storage houses for high prices. Butter Already Down 5 Cents. There has already been a reduction of 5 cents in the price of creamery butter frem the jobber to the retailer. Within another three weeks, according to Hick- el, storage butter, which sold a year ago to retailers at 33 and 8 cents a pound and sells now at 25 and 26 cents a pound, will be selling at 20 and 21 cents, and the best fresh butter which sold to retailers a year ago at 35 cents and “Is Selling now at 27 cents, will go lower, although the decline will not be so great as in storage butter. Heavy unloading in Chicago, it is ex- pected, will be followed by unloading in St. Louis and other cities, where stocks of butter, eggs, cheese and poultry are held.

Which {is correct?” “What I now say... on Saturday referred to another date. not this one.” Cross-Examination Continues. Miss Zockler was on the _ stand when the noon recess was taken and the attorney for the defense an- nounced it would require about two hours to compléte his cross-examina- tion. Mrs. Schenk appeared in much better spirits today, and seemed to have re- covered from the fit of anger and de- pression she displayed while listening to the testimony of Dan L. Phillips. He is now referred to here as Ex- trdordinary Phillips. He is identified by his dissimilarity to a famous Prince who afterward became a King, who ‘perjured himself like a gentleman’’ to save a woman's name, Phillips did not do this. He is the man who told of the favors he had received from Mrs. Schenk, who gave him an overcoat and many other things, and who often took him riding in the Schenk auto at night, when she would regale him with sandwiches and bottled beer. The testimony of Nurse Alma T. Evans also disconcerted the wife of the millionaire packer.

I am not inclined to that view Until a man is proved dishonest I give him the benefit of the doubt. “To my mind one of the best things in the new code is the abolition of the House of Delegates.

Chief of Police Young has issued an order that one patrolman must be on duty at each registration place. The Tenth Ward Improvement Associ- ation held a meeting Sunday to hear the charter discussed by Charles W. Bates, counsel for the Board of Free- holders; Samuel B. McPheeters, Dr. Wil- liam Preston Hill and George B. Web- ster. 7 Bates said that there were some things in the new charter that he did not like, but as a whole he considered it better than the old charter. He mentioned spe- cifically the civil service as one feature of the new charter to which he objects. He asserted that the old\charter is one of the best in the country. Bates declared that the clause in the charter giving, the Board of Public Im- provements, under the provisions of or- dinances,, the right to grant permits related simply to minor permits, such as areaways, awnings, etc. Webster said the civil service provi- sion was bad, because it enabled the Mayor to appoint two members of the commission, and to appoint the Board of Public Improvements, which nameg the third member. He declared that the commission would at all times be under the control of the Mayor. | After hearing the discussion of the charter, both by its advocates and its opponents, the association voted te op- pose its adoption. The St. Louls Lumbermen’s Club adopted a resolution indorsing the charter. The Sixth Ward Republi- can. Club, at a meeting Sunday, voted to. oppose the charter. _ A Meeting of the North St. Louis Citizens’ Association will be held at 8 p. m., Tuesday, at the Divoll Branch Library, Eleventh and Farrar streets, to discuss the charter. The charter will also be discussed at the _meeting of the South Broadway Merchants’ and Manufacturers’ Association at Broad- way and Geyer avenue Tuesday night, The St. Louls Lumbermen's Exchange has voted a,unanimous indorsement uf the proposed new-charter. .The organ- ization has a large and influential mem. bership.

To provide warmth which might keep life in his wasted frames a iittle longer Mrs. their only remaining piece of turniture, a dining table, and used the wood to make a fire, after Kern had pleaded with her to do something to prevent him from freezing. An hour later he died. No undertaker had been -2t the house up to 10 a. m. Monday. Mrs. Kern has no money to pay for a funeral but she piteously begs that something be done to prevent her husband’s burial in pot- ters’ field. Widow Is Starving. When she made known her sad plight Monday she said that she had eaten nothing since.’Saturday noon. When her husband died she had five cents. This she spent for coal oil that a light might be kept burning in the room of death. Kern, who had been out of work for several weeks, was arrested Nov. 20 on his wife’s complaint that he struck her.

SHELBYVILLE, Ky.,; Jan. 16.—Fifty masked men stormed the Shelby County {jail early yesterday and seized and lynched three negroes, two of whom were charged with insulting white wom- en and the third sentenced to hang for the murder of a negro woman, The bodies of two of the negroes, Gene Marshal and Wade Patterson, have been found, but that of the third, Jim West, is missing, alitheugh he was seen in the mob’s hands with a rope about his -heck. According to Ernest Hornback, depu- ty jailer, the mob appeared at the jail at 2:10 in the morning and at 3:26 took the three negroes away. The bodies recovered were found about a quarter of a mile apart. That of Marshal was found hanging te the bridge over the Emminance Pike near the jail, while that of Patterson was found in Clear Creek. Patterson, it is said, attempted to es- cape from the mob, was shot and his body thrown into the creek. According to Hornback, Jailer Edward Thompson |: |} hid the jail key when the mob appeared and when the crowd became more in- sistent Hornback admitted the men to the jail office. Patterson, it was charged, insulted two white women during the holidays and knocked both of\them down. West's alleged offense was more recent and it is said he had often been seen throwing kisses to white women. He was a chauffeur. Marshal was sentenced to hang for beheading a negro woman more than a year ago. West and Pat- terson were to have been taken before @ grand jury Jan. 23.

D. SAUNDERS. VEN though one worships the very ground that Ibsen used to walk on, one couldn't help enjoying “Anti- Matrimony,” the delightfully clever Percy Mackaye play in which Henrietta Crosman and a competent lit- tle company began a week’s engagement at the Century Sunday night. Mr, Mackaye, in the most diverting moed of kindly burlesque, pokes fun at Ibsen and his fellowers from start to finish of the new play’s four acts, and Miss Crosman and her associates pre- sent the play in precisely the spirit in which it is written. evening of rare amusement. I am just confident enough in the good taste of the American playgoing public to be- lieve that “Anti-Matrimony”’ will be vastly relished and therefore command the big attendance which its genial humor dbserves. In this most unusual comedy Migs role of a cler wife who, happily married ———— charmingly sane in her wholesome en- joyment of life, must needs bring back to that same safe state two tremendous- ly “intense” young people who have be- come so saturated with Ibsen that, the- oretically, they contemplate disease as the most desirable condition of mind and body, and suicide as the chief end of man or woman wishful of possessing the faintest claim to individuality. It’s a tempting and rewardful role, and Miss Crosman surrenders herself to it with a. joyous abandon that presents her in the most pleasing aspect in which she has ‘been seen for many seasons. The two Ibsen-stricken young Amer- icans to whom thus shc ministers the physic of sound common sense are her own younger sister, Isabelle, admirabiy played by Fay Wheeler, and her hus- band’s Own younger brother, . Morris Grey, played with exquisite mock-trag- edy touches by Wright Kramer. These two have come back from a period of European “advanced thought” so dominating that, al- though properly married, they are ashamed of. having thus subscribed to a tyrannical convention, and, proclaiming proudly that their baby is a foundling born out of wedlock, appall their’ American kin by. an- nouncing their intention of promptly beginning a crusade against the in- stitution of marriage, this being the situation that gives the play its title. Naturally enough, the Rev. Elliott Grey, played with the keenest real- ization of genuine comedy by Wedg- wood Nowell, and Mildred, his wife, the role of Miss Crosman’s playing, set themselves to the task of pre- venting such a scandal. Happily, they overhear a conversa- tion between the young Ibsenites which tells them that the two were really and truly married in Germany, and, realizing then that things are not half as bad as they feared, they begin plotting to laugh the “Ibsen culturines” back to sanity. This consummation so devoutly to be wished is ulfimately attained by means of an audacious travesty of Ibsen de- vised by the clergyman’s fun-loving wife, “Rosmersholme’ and “The Mas ter Builder’ being the two Ibsen plays most openly burlesqued by the dramatic plight into which the two victims of the loving plot are finally enmeshed. So ab- surd is the situation created at the play’s close, intentionally so in its bear- ing upon the Ibsenic teaching, that the young Ibsenites themselves are com. pelled to laugh at their own expense and the curtain falls with the American sense of humor triumphant over the Norwegian creed of life’s irremediable gloom. The' play is @ genuine tonic and febri- fuge in its ministering to the “super- woman” and the “over-man’’ who have become so inoculated with Ibsen that existence is merely a prolonged wail as one travels the road that leads inevita- bly to self-slaughter—and it’s the bes: of fun from the rise of the first curtain to the fall of the last. ’ In .addition to the players already named, Marian Holcombe is perplexedly amusing as Mrs. Grey, mother of the ministerial Elliott and the Ibsenic Mor- ris, a dear old lady who never knows till the play’s finish what it’s all about, and who is nearly heart-broken by the strange “‘mystio’’ mouthings of the two young idiots whom she had known as healthy American children during the time of their growing-up to man’s and woman’s estate. It was a delight to hear the ripples of amused laughter that swept almost con- tinuously across the Century on Sun- day night. The play delivered its mes- sage with the most ticklesome effeo- tiveness. ‘BLANCHE WALSH AT OLYMPIC. A little baby shoe, stained by mother tears, is the silent actor around which the turning point from frenzied folly to Gomestic tranquility is made in ‘The | Other Woman,” the Frederick Arnold Kummer play, in which Blanche Walsh jopened a week's engagement at the Olympic Theater Sunday evening. This wee mite of a shoe was the fond- est memory ef one who brought the happiness to a mismated couple— ‘whose love had been confined the husband only endur- weedeat n. ee eee yah — * Percy Mackaye’s Play Genially The result is an’ ithe selfish life. and the} s baby gone, all attraction of | 1d. gone for the husband—the jf MONDAY EVENING; JANUARY 16, 1911 | land weak where she sesms strongest. She wins the love of the home-wearied husband. Chance brings the two women face to face—a woman's yearning for sympathy causes the wife to tell the story of her wrecked home to the other woman— neither knowing the part the other playe in this little’ domestic tragedy. The little baby things are exhibited—the shoe is fondled by both the mother and the other woman—they both realize how little a thing it takes to move a wom- an’s heart, and this little shoe changes the entire course of ‘events. “The Other Woman” is remarkable in its action. The entire time of the play is supposed to cover only two hours from the beginning to the end of the story, half an hour less than its actual playing time. The two intermissions between acts are taken up in taxicab tides from the other woman's studio, where the play opens, to the husrhband’s home, and back to the studio again, where the story ends. This hurry-up action is punctuated with some unusual- ly lengthy stage speeches that at times fail to carry weight, and can only be excused on the ground of first-impulse attions which cannot stand the test of argument or sober second thought. It seemed almost a crime against the sacred rights of the home to have the chest of child’s garments and toys brought into the limelight of the stage to be cried over and fondled in funereal fashion by these two women, whose only real thought was to gain posses- sion of a man not worthy of such sac- rifices. It brought tears to the eyes of some of the women in the audience— probably through thought of some dear one of their own, rather than through sympathy for these two women. So this pivot point of the play is. based upon a false foundation and the weak- ness of the play begins where it should be strongest. This child theme is car- ried on to the final curtain, when the thought of the unborn child sends. the husband away from the other woman, back to the home he has deserted. The only moral the story teaches is the value of the child in the home as the means of saving husband and wife from But this lesson is so sadly learned in this play, as to leave ‘its wisdom as a debatable question. Blanche Walsh is slightly handicapped by the author giving her lengthy speeches with little real dramatic ap- peal. For one brief moment at the fina! curtain fall she is the Blanche Walsh of “The Kreutzer Sonata” and “The Resurrection,’’ but in the earlier stages of the play’s progress she is unlike her former self. She is very capably sup- ported by George W. Howard, as the husband, and Anna Cleveland, as the wife, the three making as atrong a hu- man triangle as any of the over done triangle plays have given us, Nellie Butler relieves the nerve tension of the play with a little airiness when it threatens to become oppressive. Isabel Mendoza as a child, and Zora Law- renee as the servant, complete the well- balanced cast. GORDON 8. SERVANT.

Had OPPOSES LIQUOR LID Kept a Saloon Himself but He either Drinks Whisky Nor *. Smokes. Sheriff Mulconnery’s deputies, ever since they raided a gambling house under his direction and took a Police Commissioner with their other prisoners, frightened the denisons of The Valley, that district in East St. Louls where vice thrives openly, by . patroling the streets early Sunday. Five of: the deputies appeared in the district at 11 p. m. Saturday and re- mained on duty there until after 3 a. m. Women living there were so frightened that 8) of them fled on cars to St. Louis, fearing raids. . A special car finally appeared at ird street and Broadway, and took deputies to their homes in East St. | atid Belleville, and the women who had fled, learning of this by tele- phone, returned. - Kept an Eye on Saloons, There were fewer persons on the streets of East St. Louis all Sunday then is usual on that day. Sheriff Mul- conmmery had announced that he did not intend to enforce the Sunday. closing law, but that he proposed to see that it was not violated openly, and the front doors of the saloons were closed. Those who entered side doors elipped in and out unosten‘tatiously. “The lid won’t fit in East St. Louis and Belleville," Mulconnery told a Post- Dispatch reporter. “EXven the preachers and better class of citizens don’t want it, But they do want a certain amount ‘of Becrecy about the sale of liquor, and [ propose to see that they get it. “If the lid is to be nailed onto East St. Louis or Bellevilie, it is*up to the police to do-it.

MULCONNERY. I’m going to clean up in that direction, believe me."’. Was a Saloon Keeper. Before Willlam Jj. Mulconnery was elected Sheriff he was that rarity; a Saloon keeper who had’ never taken @ drink of whisky. After he was elected he was that rarer rarity, an East Side Sheriff who does things. But if he hadn't seen a negro waiter calrying a tray of eatables into a saloon at Main street and Broadway in East St.. Louis fhe might never have stepped into the spotlight as a raider. “I was standing at the corner when Pr saw that negro coming with his tray,” Mulconnery said, in explaining how the raid came to be made, “and I stepped up to the door to hear the knock. Had my suspicions about that place, you know. He rapped four times. “I got hold of three or four depu- ties, and gave one of them, who had never been in McIntyre & Johnson’s sa- loon, the knock. He got in all right. Presently I sent another along. Then I went to the door. ‘If you don’t open it,, I said, ‘I’ll kick it in. But you might as well open, because my men have got ’em with their hands up, any- how.’ All Hands Were Up. “So the doorkeeper opened up. And sure enough, everybody in the rooms upstairs had their hands up.” One of the men arrested was John J. Townsend, a_member of the East St. Louis Police Board. Mulconnery says he had his coat off, his sleeves rolled up, and a stack of poker chips in front of him. Townsend says he had just dropped in to chat with a friend, and was not playing. His trial on a charge of being one of the keep- ers of the game will come up next Tuesday in Belleville. Mulconnery denies that he expected to find Townsend in the gambling house,:or that politics had anything ‘to do with the raid, but it is true, nev- ertheless, that Townsend was the ran against Mulconmery for election. Kane had the support also of former Sheriff Cashel, the incumbent prior to the election. Didn’t Show White Feather. There wag much bitterness in the fight. Cashel, 6 feet 4 and propor- tionately broad, once a prize fighter. and always ready for fisticuffs, met Mulconnery, slim and § feet 3, in front of the East St. Louls City Hall just before the election, and they came to blows. Mulconnery was worsted in the bout, but he did not show the white feather, and the in- cident changed the opinion in his favor. Politicians say he owes his election to his gameness in standing up before the big fists of the scrappy Belleville sheriff. the records show, been ready to use his fists if.need be, and it was this quality which endeared him to his followers in the South End of East St. Louis. He had a saloon there, quarters. The South End is populated for the most part with railroad men, and anybody in St..Clair County will tel you that Mulconnery has the vote of the South Eng in his pocket, to de- liver to whomsoever he will. He goes to the front for his constituents when they are in trouble, lends them money when they are broke, gives them a drink when they are thirsty, and ex- ets them to vote his way when he needs them. And they do. Not Friendly to Mayor. But Mulconnery did not make himself a good fellow to the extent of taking a drink with his followers. He does not drink nor smoke, and he spends most of his everiings at home with his wife and two children now that he has sold the saloon. It was about a saloon license that Mulconnery and Mayor Cook of Bast St. Louis fell out. Mulconnery wanted a license for a bar at Twenty-ninth etreet and Bond avenue, in Alta Sita, a residence district. When the residents heard of it they ‘be: 1n having religious meetings in a building on the-opposite corner, and they held, in their protests to the Mayor, that this constituted a -}ehurch, so that a saloon could not le- gally be opened in the neighborhood. Mayor Cook ruled in their favor, and Mutlconnery has not yet forgiven him. Elected Assessor. That was in 1908, when .Mulconnery was a City Councilman. In 1908 he ran for Assessor on a ticket opposed to the administration, and was elected. The name of the ticket does not matter, be- cause the Dast Side politicians change . | the name of the party at every election, to avoid primaries. The Illinois elec- tion law is so worded as to make this subterfuge possible, and the politicians do not want the public to have any e stop gambling and disorderly saloons. }’ principal backer of Jerry Kane, ,who] tide’ of public }-. Mulconnery has always, s6 far as. and the place became a political head-- the gambling raid, Mulconnery end his deputies swooped down on an unlicensed saloon and dance hall in the outskirts of Kast St. Louis, where two of Purdy’s policemen were looking on at the mer- riment. Raids Anasze Town. This was the Lake Bridge Saloon, a notorious resort. Mulconnery ar- rested 14 youths and girls under age, to use aS witnesses, and took along Frank Krone, the proprietor... Krone is in jail at Belleville, awaiting trial under $500 bond, These raids amazed the East Side, and pleased some of the citizens. Others were much displeased. East St. Louis saloon keepers seem to take it for granted that they may do pretty much a8 they please, as long as they don’t make too much noise about it, and to have’an outsider like Mulcon- nery step in and interfere was dis- quieting. _ Just at present Mulconnery is the most talked-of man on the Hast Side. What he will do next is the subject of constant street-corner speculation. There is a good deal of skepticism as to whether he can stop gambling. “Watch ne, and. see if I don’t stop it,” says tne tne small sheriff. $100.000 Fire at Winnipeg. - WINNIPEG, Manitoba, Jan. 16.~The fire which started early yesterday morn- ing and destroyed the Kelly block re- sulted in a loss of $400,000.

It reports the project practicable from an engineer- ing standpoint, but declares it unnecessary and inadvigable as a transportation measure. The tommission, according to a reliable fore- cast of its report, will advise Congress that the present depth of the river is sufficient for all navigable purposes. It even condemns as need- less the proposal to deepen the drainage canal and the Illinois River for which the Illinois peo- ple voted $20,000,000 of bonds. But the question of the need and wisdom of a deep channel is not an engineering question. It does not lie within the scope of an engineering inquiry nor are engineers the best judges on that point. It is a commercial and transportation question and should be decided by those who are competent to determine the transportation needs of commerce and industry in the Missis- sippi Valley, and the methods of transportation which would best meet those needs.

Capt. McCulloch’s reply to the demand of the West End Business Men’s Asagpcjation for im- proved fenders on the street cars is not con- vincing. In response to the record of 31 persons killed by fenders submitted by the association as a proof of the inefficiency of the present so- called fenders—a combination of buffers and wheel guards—Capt. McCulloch subniits a list of 67 persons who he says, were saved by the fen- ders. In short, he argues that out of 98 persons struck by. the cars two-thirds were not killed by ‘the fender. When the original fender bill was before the Council committee, Mr. Baumbhoff, superinten- dent of the Lindell line before the consolidation, eloquently urged the saving qualities of the wheel ‘guards on his cars. He closed his argument with the words, “Gentlemen, our wheel. guards will save anyone knocked down by the cars except small children.” The committee decided that con- siderations of humanity forbade making an ex- ception in favor of the Slaughter of small chil- dren. The decision applies to the record of the fenders now in use. The fatal objection to the wheel guards is that a person must go under the cars.in order to be saved. Few can hope to undergo that experience without severe injury and great risk to life. = = * te, i Anyhow, the dimensions of the pocket hand- derchief have not yet become a matter for legis- lative consideration.

The driver of the car whose victim died ex- plains that the fog was so dense that he didn’t see the man until he was within ten feet. of him. He declares, further, that he was not going faster than ten miles an hour. In what distance a taxicab going at the rate of ten miles an hour may be brought to a stop may be a question for experts to settle. It would be difficult, too, to determine the density of fog which, by ordinance, should prohibit the opera- tion of taxicabs. Discretion on the part of taxi- cab companies and drivers must largely be relied upon. If that discretion be found wanting then the city must impose compulsory regulations that “will make for the pedestrian’s safety. | Very few repetitions of Friday night would bring the necessity of such compulsory regula- tions to a head. \ —— eee * La, Ae, —— i ie _ In digposing of his stock farm the Hon.

He was a quiet, candid spoilsman in his youth, the candor of his efforts being such as to inflame the whoie citizenship of his native city, Buffalo, against him. “Government by Bunco” was the New York World’s judgment of Mr. Sheehan's in- ‘scription on the statute books=a verdict almost unanimously concurred in. But all that was long ago. From Buffalo to Wall street proceeded Mr. Sheehan. He has fared well with the years. Material treasure has been acquired.

Noticing a table of salaries paid to firemen throughout the largest cities, we find that the firemen of St. Louis are the poorest paid among them, ~ According to an afternoon paper, the chief re- ¢¢ ‘ceives a salary of only $4000 a year for working His as- |. 24 hours a day and 365 days a year. sistant chiefs and rank and file work about the same hours. Now as the new charter increases salaries of men working only eight hours a day, why not inorease the pay of the men who work 21 to 24 hours? Give the chief and his men credit and good pay for their services. ZI believe that the public should take up this matter and try and get the increase of salary for the firemen before the new charter goes into ef- fect, as that states that no salaries shall be in- creased during the time of employes’ service. If St. Louis Became the Capital. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The article concerning the removal of the capi- tal from Washington, D. C., to St. Louis, pub- lished in the Post-Dispatch, will, I am afraid, lead to some erroneous impressions as to the advantage ot having the seat of government. I assume, of course, that St. Louis would be placed just as Washington is now, as regards local affairs. St. Louls would want trees, flowers and parks in the central districts, surrounded by white marble department buildings and statuary. Now the very first need would be to get rid of the smoke and soot, and right there the proprietor of the factory shown in Smoke Picture No. 19,473 would emit a lament that would only be equaled when he would be compelled to strictly observe the child labor laws. Next the immaculate, graftless police would be busily engaged in ordering the removal of loading platforms which now obstruct the. sidewalks. Parks would be established near Twelfth and Olive streets, wherein humming birds could nest and find flowers for nourishment, while robins would nést in the oaks on Eleventh street. The Terminal Railroad Association would run loco- motives the smoke of &11 of which would be about equal to a present-day Locust street board- ing house. As a Federal district would be established, of course, St. Louis would no lenger supply good. state taxes to be disposed of by legislators from Shannon and Iron counties. Your Jep Howe and Tony Stuever would settle down to a peaceable, friendly existence instead of lying awake at night with worrying about how St. Louis can possibly get along without them. No longer would the festive repeater find a ready reward for work well done, because home rule would be established and conducted by Sen- ator Webb Foote of Oregon and Congressman Tarr Heele of North Carolina. Your saloons instead of being three to a block would be so delimited as to make the possession of a license as valuable as a title of “durchlaucht’”’ in Germany. All of this will be somewhat miti- gated if the tail goes with the hide and you get; Shoomaker’s Lid-Iron Club. I am afraid St. Louis is wedded * its smoke, bridge arbitrary, ward politics, loading platforms, parkless levee and handy beer emporiums, and upon reflection, will conclude to “let Washington George do it.” G, H. REID, Washington, D. C, Thée—Dé feat of Greed. To the Editor of the Post-D‘spatch. The stock argument of capitalism anent Social- ism is this: You cannot change human nature. But it is human nature for a man to walk on all fours like a horse, to covet his neighbor’s goods and everything that is his. But through civiliza- tion—faulty as it is-—these defects have been remedied. And passing through some ism dr other, the overmastering defect of greed can be done away with. SIDNEY AVERILL. Vigus, Mo. — Dr. Osler on Vaccination. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch, Dr. Osler, said to be the greatest physician in the English-speaking world, has an article in the December American Magazine on “Man’s Redemp- tion of Man,” in which he says it is not too much to say that the abolition of smallpox, typhus and typhoid fevers has changed the practice success- fully in all our hospitals. The death rate in Lon- don now is 15.3 per 1000 and is one of the lowest in Europe or elsewhere. He makes this challenge to those opposed to vaccination: “T would like to say a word or two upon one ot the most terrible of all acute infections—the one of which we ffrst learned the control through the work of Jenner. A great deal of literature has been distributed castihg discredit upon ‘the value of vaccination in the prevention of small- pox. -I do not see how anyone who has gong through epidemics, as I have, or who is familiar with the subject, and who has any capacity left for clear. judgment, can doubt fts value, A would like to issue a Mount Carmel-like challenge to any ten unvaccinated priests of Baal ' as follows: I will go into the next severe epidemic, with 10 selected vaccinated persons and 10 se- lected unvaccinated persons. I will make thig promise—neither to jeer nor to jibe when they catck the disease but to look after them as broth- ers, and for the four or five who are certain to die, I will try to arrange the funerals with all the pomp and ceremony of an anti-vaccination dem- onstration.” : This needs no comment. It speaks for itself. To me.it seems opportune and worth publishing. PHIL. @uIRMER. Worse Than Pigeons.

At the same instant a very fleshy lady started from the curb directly opposite with the same purpose in mind.. By remarkable luck both succeeded in escaping the passing wheels, but a fate would, have it. the little man, whose eyes were busy ogling the traf- fic.on either side of him, darted plump linto the oncoming woman in the mid- die of the street. The result was a sickening collision, with the little man down and out. ‘You should have looked where you were going,” said the fleshy woman, bending over the victim on the curb, to which he had been dragged by a traffic policeman. “But is there any- thing I can do for you?’ “Yes,”” he replied faintly. opening his eyes a moment, “get the number of the SHE COULD DO, automobile that struck me CHARLES SUMNER’S EGOTISM. §. &.

A PRIOR ROCKFF?TIFR, /That Mr. Rockefeller’s advantage has chiefly lain in prior visits to this sphere is rendered doubly probable by the dis- covery of an old Central American clay figure in which he is plainly pictured playing golf. This important effigy the new Enry- clopedia Britannica pictures as an “Az- tec Clay Figure” and nothing rhore, which is about as near as any encyclo- pedia come to encycling when it finds something to encycle about. Nothing is said of the unmistakable resemblance to Mr. Rockefeller, or the discovery that the Aztecs played golf. Indeed, we Toltec it looks, and Toltec we take it. Mr. isockefeller had by that time probably’ become go far the arbiter of his: own appearances upon this earth that he would not have been an Aztec, anyway. He was doubtless Toltec, which was a much more refined and: centemplative existence, and one which probably found golf to be a necessity. That the club. he was swinging is broken must always.be a great pity. Was it a Tol- tec baffy? Is there, perhaps, something we might learn from the golf of that day? From this figure we shall never know. All that we can be certain of is that it is Mr. Rockefeller and that this is the golf swing. ' CHEER UP.

FIRST “LAST APPEARANCE” PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 16.—Battling Nelson has put his signature to a blank contract through which he‘will have his final tryout on St. Patrick’s day. It will be known as the “final appearance of Battling Nelson.” ‘The Dane has agreed to fight before O’Brien’s club on that date.

This is always providing the raw*mar terial.is there. - But take the case of “Rhoderick” Wal- lace, new. manager of the Browns, who Monday began a consideration of the problem stated above.” “‘BobBy’” is ex- pected to turn out & near-champion team by some of the rash. Properly ‘equipped with Speakers, Cobbs and Ed ‘Walshes he might accomplish this; but the material is not there, not even the Hedges hag spent a world of money for new.material; but as yet its tim- ber has pot shown the proper pith.

He demands the abolition of the “‘turtlé-back diamond,” which puts the pitcher on an elevation of 18 to 2 Inches above the batter, giv- ing him aegreat advantage. The only argument in favor of this form of infield is the superidr drainage it promotes. Certainly this is not of sufficient im- portance to warrant injuring the bat- ter’s chances, by maintaining it. Many plans have been proposed whereby the }batting angle of the game may unt- formly better without seriously hamper- ing the pitcher. Herrmann’s proposal appears to bé about the best yet made of getting at the point. Put the pitcher on a level with the batsman amd the hitting will surely — a * Just-a “Friendly” Affair. “OT ‘content. with arranging many N flascos, with himself as a center > figure, Philadelphia Jack O’Brien séems bent on. dragging others into the same unenviable notoriety.

Then the season can't open too early for me.”’ riety that he knows will be attached to his new position. When asked to pose for the Post-Qispatch, he turned and good-naturedly said to Mrs. ‘Wal-' lace: * ‘Now, if we had gotten off at the Bridge station as I wanted to, we would have escaped this. You! got me into this by not getting off earlier.” “Am I pleased with my new job? re- peated Wallace, after a question from the Post-Dispatch. “Well, I should say a0. Why wouldn't I be? If ethers can take a chance at making g00d as manager, I guess I can. “St. Louis ig a good baseball town and I, know I have a good chance to make good here. It may take awhile, of cofirse, but baseball is a business in which you have to start at the very bottom. I know that as well as anyone I also believe that the fans appreciate the fact that we can’t produce a win- ner in a year. Just how long it will take remains to be seen.’’ “Do you think the waight of the new position will have any effect oh your own brilliant playing?’ was asked of Wallace. “No, I don’t,” he replied. “I don't see why it should. I expect to get out there and play as hard every day as I have before. It will be a big job for all of us, but if we all get out and try to do our best there will be no kick.’’ Wallace said he would probably call on Owner Hedges late Monday afternoon for the first conference with the loca) magnate since he was appointed mana- ger. There will probably be a daily meeting between the owner and the new manager from now on until the American League schedule méeting in Chicago, when Hedges and Wallace will probably put through a deal or two. According to Owner Hedges, he has already paved the way for several deals. He will learn from Manager Wallace if any of the men obtainable are desired. If Weallace believes the’ men will strengthen the Browns, the deals will probably go through. It ts believed that a third baseman is the man most desired by Messrs. Hedges and Wallace. He is said to be an ex- perienced infielder and if the club to which he now belongs is able to land one of the present Brownies the swap will be made. The pitching and catching departments of the Browns loom up fairly formid- able. However. an experienced infielder The outfield could be made stronger, although Wallace has a squad of nine fly chasers from which clude Veterans Hoffman, Stone, Hart- zell and Schweitzer. Of the newcomers there are Northen from the Houston (Texas League) team, Murray frem the St. Paul (American Association) team, Shoften from the Wheeling (Centrai League) team, Williams from the Mon- mouth (Illinois-Missouri League) team, and Coveleskie from the Louisville (American Association) team. Short Trip for Cardinals. The Cardinals wil] have the shortest training trip attempted by a St. Louis team in many years. Manager Bfesna han plans to leave St. Louis for West Baden March 6. He will spend a week or ten days there. The length of time to remain in West Baden will depend on the weather. The squad will then return to League Park to finish its training here. With the exception of the Boston Red Sox long training trips have been aban- doned. It has often, though not in- variably, been the case that a gdod training trip meant a great deal to a team. The Chicago Cubs, for instance, won four championships in five years and trained each spring at a different place: In 1006 they did practically no training at all. President Charley Murphy had the idea that Champaign, Ill., would be the proper place. Snow drove the team out of the Chi- cago town after a week of idleness. They hurried to Vicksburg, where rain allowed only a day or so of work. They went to Atlanta and again were pre- vented frém working by rain.

The players will leave Boston Fett 18 and go to California by way of Chicago. The team's training will be done at Redondo, just outside of Los Angeles. The club will use two special trains and live on them. The itinerary will cover about 8500 miles. With a perfect basebal! demoed and well prepared playing field awaiting them, the Giants will again do their training at Marlin Springs’, Tex., which Manager John McGraw considers an ideal spot for the purpose.

Told by physicians that the paralysis which had afflicted him for three years was incurable and would cause him to be bedridder, Henry R. Whit- more, former cssistant secretary of the Merchants’ Exchange committed suicide Sunday by jumping from an eighth- story window at the Mafquette Hotel, Bighteenth street and Washington avenue. Whitmore, who formerly was promin- ent in the flour milling business, was stricken by paralysis shortly after his wife died in 1907, Since then he had been under treatment at the Missourl Bap- tist Sanitarium. He engaged the hotel room only an hour before he leaped to death. His nephew, C. HB.

Notify Clarence L. Hoblitzelle of 4071 Washington avenue and Dr. John B. Rule.” Hoblitzelle had been a life-long frieng and Dr. Rule had been Whit- more’s physician at the sanitarium.

NEW YORK, Jan. 16.—A congregation which probably loses more members daily than any other city, yet gains as many each day as it loses, is to have a new church. When the commu- nicants of the Catholic chapel of the Sacred Heart on Blackwell’s Island gather in the chapel on a Sunday they know that many of their number will not be there the following Sabbath. For the congregation is made up of tuberculesis patients who are sent to the Metropolitan Hospital in the last Stages of the disease. The average death list is four a day; yet the chapel benches are always crowded. Father J. W. Casey has buried in a single day as many as 20 of his parist ‘oners. A new building, built of blue stone quarried on the island, will be erected. The floors will be of gray glass and all of the trimmings of stone er con- crete. Slate will form the altars. The only wood will be the seats of the benches. Their frames are iron and remevable. The whole c :apel is so de- signed that after every service it can be thoroughly disinfected... .
