—— sa HJSBAND ATTENDS FAINTING WIFE HE IGNORED 2 YEAR Had Refused to Speak to Woman Who Swoons as Divorce Trial Is Called. Sea Mrs. Augusta Kempf, 28 years old, de- fendant in a suit for divorce filed by Fred G. Kempf, collapsed from nervous- ness and fell unconscious in the corri- dor of the Circuit Courtroom at Clayton Wednesday when waiting for the case to be called for trial. Her husband, who had not spoken to her for more than two years, assisted others to care for her. He later offered to take her to her home in St. Louis in an automobile. An applicatfon for a continuance, of the case was made by her attorneys, after she had been revived: Dr. F, D. Rice said she is not able to attend the hearing at this time. Mrs. Kempf was uncouscious half an hour after she swooned. Judge McElhinney had just called the divorce case when Deputy Marshal We- nom tiptoed his way to the Judge’s bench and announced that the defen- dant had fainted outside. Court atten- dants found Mrs, Kempf unconscious in the Sheriff's office. Dr. Rice was called and Kempf was urged by a friend to go to his wife's side, Kempf assisted in placing his wife on a cot and stayed with her until she revived, Mrs. Kempf lives at 712 Walton ave- nue, St. Louis, with her son, Walter, 9 years old. Kempf is seeking to get con- trol of the boy in his suit, The Kempfs were married Aug. 2, 1900, and separated July 4, 1906. They have not spoken to each other since 1908, according to testi- mony, although they frequently have met, ‘Kempf.is a chauffeur for EB. I. Hoyt of the Belleview apartments.

One of the first cases he tried after he took charge of his office pre- sented this problem, and he is wrestling with it yet. The point was raised in the suit of R. F. Williams and Thomas Burke against Henry J. Gillmann for $93 damages. They are neighbors in Carondelet, nea the Mississippi River. Forty Plymouth | Rock chickens belonging to Williams and Burke were killed on the nights of Sept. 8 and 18 last. Burke testified that he shot at dogs when he heard a noise in his chicken yard, trailed them to within 150 feet of Gillmann’s home and saw them disappear through a hole in Gillmann's fence, Attorney Robert J. Kirkwood for the plaintiffs. based his claim for damages on the Missouri statute which declares. that in every case where sheep of other domestic anf- mals are killed by dogs, the owner May recover against the keeper or owner of the dogs the full value of the animals. He insisted that chick- ens are domestic animals. Atorney George W: Wellman, repre- senting Gillmann, argued that chick- ens are fowls or poultry and are not animals. He urged that domestic animals are cattle, sheep, hogs, horses ar other beasts, Kirkwood read from a New York decision in which ft was-held tha‘

C., Republican Congressman, First Ten- + Nessee, elected to fill the unexpired term of the late Mr. Brownlow. Washington, D. C. Kansas “Stand Pat” Warning. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. In replying to your letter relative to a special session of the Sixty Second Congress for the purpose of, as you say, “reforming the tariff and reducing the cost of living,” I have the honor to say that I do not believe that the high cost of living has been caused by the tariff. When you reflect that the cost of living all over the civilized world is uniformly high,. you certainly must know that such a condition cannot be due to a tariff affecting only the American market. It appears to me that the late cen- sus has made it very plain that the high cost of living ts due to the fact that about 16,000,000 of people, during the last decade, have gone from. the rural districts to the great cities. If -you want cheaper living just devise some means that will cause the tide ‘of humanity to flow back to the farms, and we will get farm products at a lower figure and consequent cheaper living. I? you want to again bring unto all parts of the country deserted cities and drive the people to the farms, I know of no beiter way to accomplish it than to call a special session of Con- @ress, stir up the tariff question, drive the American dollar again to the woods. If you do not do this now, you will miss your opportunity, for the Ameri-| can farmer is already realizing the fact | that your great metropolitan dailies of New York represent. only the inter- ests of the large importing houses of your city, and by 1912 you will find him again identified with the great protec- tive policy that has made him rich dur- ing the past decade, and he will not then be with you. I believe that the men who repre- sent the real business Interests of this country are hoping that’ this Congress will pass the general appropriation bills and go home,.and that the country, which has been farmed to death by the reformer and demagogua will be al- lowed to have a rest and co quietly on and do business under conditions that we have proved to be sound during the past decade. _ W.

compiy with the popular verdict of the November election President Taft, as a servant of the people, should, by calling a special session, make it pos- sible for the newly-elected Congress- men to lift the burden. A special session for the consider- ation of a limited nuffiber of tariff schedules would give more time for consideration and would to some de- gree divorce politics and the great economic problem, the combination of which has always worked against the peoples’ interests. If an attempt is made to throttle the people's will by dilatory tactics the verdict at the next national elec- tion will be even more emphatic than it was last Navember. W. D.

The Times-Dispatch thinks that a spetial session of Congréss, to be held this March, should at once address itself to the tariff and the reduced cost éf lfving.

The expression djjthe people last. fall was so pronounced that it seems to us it is incumbent on Presi- dent Taft to defer action no longer than this coming spring. M. M. BARR, Managing the Los Angeles Herald (Dem.), Los Angeles, Cal. — The Record Is for Action, To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The sooner the better. THE PHILADELPHIA RECORD, (Ind. Dem.) A “Stand-Patter’s” Refuge. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I most emphatically favor the calling of a special session of the newly-elected Congress in March'to &gal with the Payne-Aldrich tariff and reduce the cost of living. This would be a prompt and effective response to the November verdict of the people against the many abuses of that measure. That the grossest abuses of the taxing power were enacted into the Payne- Aldrich bill is now admitted on all sides. 3 The monopolies that control staples knew that every day’s delay weakens the people’s position, saps the strength of the opposition, fritters away the power of the mighty protest of Novem- ber. Like a lawyer with a weak case Colleges Presidents Two to One in Favor of Prompt Revision In the proportion of two to one in favor of a special session, the presidents' of colleges, great. and small, in all parts of the United States, have answered the Post-Dispatch’s question. have their ears closer to the ground-rail of public opinion and can speak with less political prejudice than these makers In this opening chapter the Post-Dis These are representative ones, for and women. small fraction of the replies. against, Profound Dissatisfaction. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. As far as I can-estimate public opin- ion through reading the public prints }and conversing with many kinds of peo- ple, I should say that there is a pro- found: dissatisfaction with the present tariff. In my own judgment it is not only inequitable in its adjustments; but also wrong in -principle. Further, it seems to me an obstacie to that world peace for which all nations, in their public program at least, are striving. Nothing in our national policy causes more irritation than the tariff and there is nothing that lends itself more easily ‘to the building up of monopolies and the crushing out of healthy competi- tion. If it is to be changed it should be changed as speedily as possible. [I be- lieve it should take precedence over every other issue. An extra session of Congrss might well be called for the purpose. CHARLES A. RICHMOND, President of Union College, Schenectady, N. Y. No Blame for High Prices, To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. In my opinion, as a student of po- litical economy quite apart from any consideration of partisan politics, the cost of living depends upon conside?a- tions of a much more far-reaching and universal character than the tariff. The part the tariff plays in the situa- tion is.unimportant, and in my opinion the only way in which the cost of living could be lowered by tariff: reduction would be through’ general paralysis of business, which would have the usual result of reduced prices accompanied by acute distress through financial losses and lack of employment. The persons who insist upon coupling the tariff with the high cost of living and assuming that a reduction. of the tariff means a reduction of the cost of living without affecting the purchasing ability of the consumer are standing on ground which it is charitable, though difficult, to assume to be the result of ignorance. FREDERICK W. HAMILTON, President Tufts College, Massachusetts. Foodstuffs on Free List. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I am in favor of President Taft calling a special session of the newly elected Congress in March to reform the tariff.

City. Norman Hapgood Undecided. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I have not made up my mind what I think would’ be the wisest procedure for the Republicans in regard ‘to the tariff. Of course, if a special! session should mean a really just tariff, it would strengthen the party, but I ean see no reason to believe it would have that meaning. Whatever party is be- ing considered, I think the important thing is to revise those schedules which are manifestly for the welfare of spé-’ cial. interests rather than for the wel- fare of the whole people; to revise schedule by schedule without deals, and to put the time for the revision to effect far enough ahead for business to adjust itself, NORMAN HAPGOOD, Editor of Collier’s Weekly, New York. Inquirer Questions Premises. To the Bditor of the Post-Dispatch. * Call a special session of Congress in March “‘to reform the tariff and reduce the cost of living?’’ Certainly not. In the first place, the tariff has mighty little to do with tie cost of living. In. the second place, a genera) tariff revision is always disastrous to the business of the entire country. Call a session in March and set Congress at work holding public hearings and slashing away all along the line, and you call a halt upon industry. General revisions are barbarous. This country should never be subjected to another. President Taft would be fully justified in leaving all tariff matters to the regular session of December next. THE PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER (Rep.).

BROTHER STANISEAUS, St. Francis College, Brooklyn, N. Y. People’s Will Clearly Told, To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I certainly believe that there ought to be a session of Congress to carry out the expressed will of the people at the earliest possible date, especially since this will was so clegrly expressed in the last election, ‘REV. E. C. KERR, Preside&ht Palmer College, LeGrand, Io. Thinks It Bad Part olicy. To the Editor of the Post- Disvateh oe I do not favor a special session of the newly elected Congress in March to re- form the tariff and to reduce the cost of living. What we as a people need more than anything else is to get the tariff question out of politics and in charge of a non-partisan board which can in- vestigate and report upon the best meth- ods of levy and administration for the purpose of providing a national revenue. There is no prospect that the Demo- cratic party as a party can deal with this complicated subject any more suc- cessfully than the Republican party has dealt with it, and to urge immediate ac- tion along antiquated political lines would be a tactical blunder from the point of view of Democratic partisan- ship. I believe, therefore, that all patriotic citizens sheuld sustain President Taft in his efforts to reform our ideas and legislation with respect to the tariff. The increase in the cost of living is a world-wide phenomenon and cannot be modified by legislation to a much greater extent than we can control the weather or the precision of the equl noxes. R. 8S.

Va., Jan. 18. —Follow- ing its successful attempt yesterday to show that poison was obtained by the accused, the prosecution in the trial of Mrs. Laura Farnsworth Schenk, charged with administering poison to her hus- band, caused an air of expectancy when the trial was resumed this morning, by the intimation that still angther physi- cian would be put on the stand to testi- ty that he had supplied Mrs. Schenk with sugar of lead. Dr. J. W. Myers, who yeaterdax. admit- ted supplying poison, also testified that Mrs. Schenk declared she had obtained a drug from someone else than Dr. Myer. It is this physician who was ex- pected to be called before the day was over. Sure of Lead Poisoning. Dr. J. Edward Burns was on the stand for cross-examination when court con- vened. His examination was purely technical, and did not satisfy Prosecutor Handlan. In redirect examination the doctor said John O. Schenk never had Bright's dis- ease; and he was sure he was suffering from lead poisoning. Dr. Gregory Ack- erman, who discovered.the blue line on Schenk’s gums, took the stand for cross- examination, and said the line was so distinct he called the attention of his assistant to it. He positively asserted that Schenk was suffering from lead poisoning while he was under his, care, and he had Schenk removed to the hos- pital, and forbade him to eat meals in his home. “Why?” “I had investigated as to probable sources of lead. poisoning, and had ex- cluded all but the home. I thought he was taking the poison with his food or water, as he usually became sick after eating his meals there.’’ It developed during the cross-exam- ination that a conference had been held in Chicago, the witness’ admitting he told Dr. Hupp that Schenk was suffer ing from lead poisoning. Hupp contend- ed, said the witness, that Schenk’s ail- ment was arsenic poisoning, that ar⸗ senic had been found in the water and bichloride in Schenk’s ftmedicine. He said Schenk was not an — * user. q Women Are Excla There was a chorus of. Moke when. during a short recess, Judge Jordon an. nounced that “for the sake of the mor: als of the community all women would be excluded from the courtroom.” ' Dr. Gregory. Ackerman, who made a diagnosis of lead poisoning before any other physicians were summoned, is to b another witness today. Dr. Acker- man is recalled for cross-examination. His assistant, Dr. R. U. Drinkard, is ex- pected to substantiate Dr. Ackerman’s testimony and also’ diagnosis, through blood tests he made. Chauffeur Tells Story. Lundy Wilson, the chauffeur em- ployed by the Schenks, yesterday laid bare the story of Mrs, Schenk and her relations with Daniel-Z. Philips, who on the stand last Friday ad- mitted taking long atitomobile trips with the accused. Wilson said Mrs. Schenk admitted to him improper re- lations with Phillips, giving several instances to corroborate this state- ment. He said Mrs. Schenk apparently preferred the company of Phillips to that of her husband. On cross-examination, no change in the direct testimony was brought out by Mr. Boyce for the defense.

I favor a special session of Congress.«to take up the work of reforming the tariff, permit me to say that should President Taft fail to have this done at the earliest possible opportunity he will fail in his duty to the millions of Amer- ican working people who find it a prob- lem to live under the present high cost of the necessities of life. These people want relief and are entitled to consid- eration, both at the hands of President Taft and of Congress. JOHN GOLDEN, General President United Textile Work- ers of America, Fall River, Mass. People Didn’t Count on Delay. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The peaple throughout the country voted in favor of the incoming Congress with the idea in mind that if there was a change in this body relief from the tariff and excessive cost of living would be secured without being. obliged to wait a year or two before something definite ws accomplished. For this reason I certainly am in favor of a special session of Congress, so that the matter of the revision of the tariff may be taken up as soon as possible and a reduction made on al! the necessities of life.

? YOUNG WOMEN IN SAME LOCALITY ATTEMPT TO DIE One Had Quarreled and Other Was Despondent Because of Husband’s Iliness.

Two young women, who live within a block of one another in the Soulard street police district, tried to kill themselves Tuesday evening—one be- cause she had quarreled with her hus- band is fatally M. At. 7:30 p. m. the police were sum- moned to the home sof Mrs. Cora Probert, 22 years old, at 1519 Seuth fhird street. The police were told that Mrs. Probert had started to drink the contents of a half-pint bottle of disinfectant, containing carbolic acid, but was prevented by her brother- in-law, Lemuel Probert, who poured the drug into the sink. The disinfectant had been sent to the house from the Board of Health, Mrs. Probert’s husband, Harry, being in. the final stages ‘of tuberculosis.

Kreismann, wife of the Mayor of St. Louis, to recall the in- vitations which she sent out a few days ago to ai bridge party for Wednesday afternoon at her home, 4362 McPherson avenue, ; The invited guests, 100 in number, were notified Tuesday Aight by tele- phone message of the withdrawal of the invitations, but were asked to reserve the afternoon of Wednesday, Feb. 1, as Mrs. Kreismann hopes to be able to entertain by that time. . Invitations are also out for a sec- ond. bridge party for the afternoon of Wednesday, Jan. 25. Whether these invitations are recalled will depend on Mrs, Kreismann’s condition in the next few days. Mrs, Kreismann was stricken Sunday with indigestion, and this developed the following day into a severe Iliness. The Mayor, on this account, canceled two dates for public appearance Tuesday and sent Secretary Burkham to the Epis- copal missionary convention, and Ste- nographer Cheney to the Business Men’s League banquet, in his place. Mrs. McCann, Mrs. Kreismann’s sis- ter, who was to assist her in entertain- ing sent out the telephone messages an- nouncing the withdrawal of the invita- tions, She received many expressions of regret.

REED IN HIS ACCEPTANCE SPEECH OPPOSES TARIFF Frem a Staff Cerrespondent of the Post-Dispatch. 18.— JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., Jan. James A. Reed, United States Senator- ‘elect frorh Missouri, delivered hig speech of acceptance before the joint assembly this afternoon. He denounced the tar- iff as graft and robbery, urged the im- provement of waterways, the adeption of the income tax amendment, the elec- tion of United States Senator by ai- rect vote, and the proposed 14-foot chan- nel for the Mississippi. Though not making a specific promise en any matters of legislation, the Sena- tor declared his opposition to the tariff, pledged himself to vote with the Dem- ocratic party on party measures, and said he would always work for the in- terests of the State. Will Stick by en “I have been elected as a Democrat,’’ ‘he gaid, “I believe party platforms are solemn, binding contracts between a candidate and the people who favor him with thelr votes. Upen all party ques- Aons I shall adhere to the platiorm of my party, but I trust no man will con- sider me so narrow or partisan as to {indulge the thought that I shall not al- ways endeavor to work for the inter- ests of the State, andthe interests of eur common country ”’ In attacking the tariff as a breeder of monopoly and the robber of the péo- ple, the Senator said: ' “Tg the present industrial system be allowed to continue unchecked for 20 years, we will have reached ® condition appalling to contem- plate. “In defiance of the plain letter of the constitution, which prohibits the teking of private property except for public use, ang then only upon pay- ment of just compensation, laws have been systematically enacted, having for their chief object the taxation of the masses for the enrichment of cer- tain great concerns, which have be- come in every ugly aspect of th word, monopolies. ' Citizens’ Pockets Picked. of the government is distorted into the right to levy tribute for the emolument of private corporations. The hand of the government is thus employed to pick the pockets of the eitizen. “It is as dishonest and illegal for the government to take the property of citizens and divide it among cer- tain favored corporations as it would be for a band of anarchists to take the property of the corporations and divide it among themselves. “A free market, in which the citizen oan buy and sell, a fair and open fieid Protest of competition, where all may trade upon equal terms, is not only neces- sary to the commercial success of a nation, but is of the essentials of lib- erty. “Tt is no part of my purpose to enter into a general discussion of the tariff. I have proceeded thus far to illustrate how impudently the scheme of national graft has been pursued. “We find the invisible hand of legai- ized graft everywhere. Tariff, taxes for the mine owner, manufacturer, the lumber king. .Taxes' upon all the peo- ple wear or use, Graft, organized, sys- tematized, arrogant, forceful and po- j|tential. Monopoly created and fed by the hand of Government, growing con- stantly, girdling the continent, absorb- ing the substance of the people. “The right to tax for the support. “Meantime, the people are placated by an occasional prosecution, begun with much noise and fury, then drag- ging its slow course through the courts to an uncertain end, resulting at best in a reorganization, which effectuates no more. real change in its character than the annual shedding of skins alters the nature of the serpent tribe. “The remedy does not lie in New Na- tionalism, a drug worse than the dis- ease. The people will never submit to the abrogation of the rights of the states, the centralization of all power ard authority at Washington, the anni- hilation at once of the right of loca: self-government, and of the checks and balances reserved in the constitution ‘itt order that monopoly may be perpet- uated in the Republic, Would Limit Capital, “The producing cause of the evil must be removed. Limitations upon the capital which may be employed by pri- vate corporations engaged in interstate commerce must be enacted.”’ é Followjng the discussion of the tariff the Senator-elect urged the ratification by the Legislature of the income tax amendment. He then de- clared in favor of electing United States Senators by direct vote, and said that foreign corporations should be compelled to submit themselves to the laws and courts of the states which they enter, He denounced the Federal courts as “places to. which corporate litibants may flee and cry ‘sanctuary.’ ”’ He discussed waterways projects at considerable length and declared the Government should dig the 14-foot channel from St. Louis to the Gulf, Improvement of waterways, he said, would mean cheaper freight rates, He held it to be as much the duty of the Government to protect lands from overflow as it is to provide irri- gating ditches in arid lands of the West, or to build railroads and puhlic works in the Philippines. Official Notification. The formality of announcing the vote taken yesterday was gone through at noon today, atid a committee was ap- pointed by Lieutenant-Governor Gme- lich, President of the Senate, to give Reed official notification. He was escorted to the President's stand, where he delivered his address. His fame as an orator filled the gal- leries with as large a crowd as that of yesterday, when the nominating speeches were delivered, and when there was not even standing room left in the galleries and the lobby in the rear of the mem- bers seats.

WOMAN RUNS INTO BURNING BILOIN “AND GES ALARM * Braves Flames to Telephone, After Two Men Employes Have Fled Into Street. Policeman’s Coat Burned From His Back at an Early Morn- ‘jing Fire. Miss Marie Welch, a traveling rales- voman for the No-Dust-O Co., braved the flames when the office at 920 North Broadway caught fire frofm a gas ex- p'osion Wednesday, and gave the alarm by telephone. Her black velvet turban was scorched while she stood at the telephone and called to Police Head- quarters: “There's a big fire at Broadway and Franklin. Send the engines quick.’’ Miss Welch, who stops at ‘the Blue Grass Hotel when she. is. in town, reached the office a moment after the fire broke out, in time to see Thomas Burgess and Ammond Johnson, a negro porter, escape in fright through the 'front door.. They had been the only ones in the building when the gas ex- ploded. Braves Flames to Telephone. The telephone was near the rear of the building, on a wall. To get to it meant danger from the fire, rapidly advanc- ing in that direction, but Miss Welch says it did not occur to her to wait until she could get to a telephone in an ad- icining building. She ran right in and gave the alarm. '.A leaking supply pipe is believed to have caused the explosion, which was slight, but which set fire to nearby woodwork. The interior of tha two-story brick building was soon a mass of flames, and Broadway for a block in ejther direction was packed with sightseers. Thomas Burgess is president of the Burgess Tea and Coffee Co., which occupies the building with the No- Dust-O concern. His son, Irwin H. Burgess, is president of the latter. Johnson turned in an alarm from the firebox at Broadway and Frank- lin ayenue,; and returned to the fire. Passersby helped him carry some of the stock from the front part of the building. Neither concern kept a large stock.on hand, and the elder Burgess said the damage to his tea and: coffee. wquld net amount to more than $300. Less on Building $5090. The damage to the building, owned by A. H. Schroeder, was estimated at $5000. Only the walls were ieft stending. A thick firewall between the burn- ing building and that occupied by the Nelson Distilling Co. saved the latter from damage. On the other side of the Burgess Tea and Coffee Co bullding is an alley. Peliceman Resecuer’s Coat Is Burned From His Back.

The building is a two-story brick and was only slightly damaged. ‘The horses belonged to Moret Stein of 912 O'Fallon, H. Liptzin of 1113 North Twentieth street and Morris Auboch of 1228 North Ninth. The total loss was $700. TRAIN LOST ON MEXICAN ROAD No Trace of it Since It Passed Tejolocachic Station.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 18—That thé@ United States is in danger of becoming a nation of dope fiends is the statement of Dr. Harvey W.-Wiley, chief chemist of the Department of Agriculture. Dr, Wiley is pushing a bill before Congress to compel druggists to keep. a reeord -Of-sale of ail habit-forming drugs» He agrees with William J. Schiefflin, prea- ident of the Wholesale Druggists As- sociation, that an unwarranted amount of opium and opium derivatives is im- ported into this country. Dr. Wiley says about eight times’ ag much opium is imported as could be legitimately utilized in medical prac. tice, and the only inference is that the surplus goes to drug fiends. “The use of drugs is the hardest habit to break,’’ says Dr. Wiley, “and adver. tised Fus cures are mostly if not ail, fakes.’ LIGHT-HOUSE KEEPER’S LIFE PRICE OF DEVOTION TO DUTY He Divided Food With Dog During. 11-Days Exposure That Induced Tuberculosis.

McPheet- ers, secretary of the Freeholders. _———— *— F.W. LEHMANN WILL CLOSE CAMPAIGN Frederick W. Lehmann, chairman of the Board of Freeholders, will return from Washington next week to make cne or more speeches for the charter. Lehmann is now: Solicitor-General of the United States, and has had no op- portunity to participate in the charter campaign. The Charter Publicity Committee prob- ably will arrange for a meeting at Lemp’s Park Hall, Thirteenth and Utah streets, Friday, Jan. 27, for Leh- mann. Luther Ely Smith of the Charter Pub- icity Committee received a telegram from Lehmann Wednesday definitely ac- cepting an invitation to speak on the charter at Lemp’s Park Hall Jan. 27. The committee will endeavor to have Lehmann remain in St. Louls until the close of the charter campaign to make several speeches in different parts of the city. | The committee has obtained interviews from former Councilman Charlies A. Stix, president.of the Grand-Leader; Dr. James Stewart, physician for the Board of Education, and Attorney Daniel N. Kirby indorsing the charter. Stix said one of the best features of the charter is that it proposes to in- crease the salaries of Councilmen to $1800 a year. They are now paid $300 a year. * “If we pay the Councilmen proper sgal- aries, capable and acceptable men car -be found to serve the city,’’ said Stix. “I like the fixing of responsibility, too. In order to drive, a man must have the} reins in hig hands. If we stand still, we will find plenty of use for checks.

Du Benrick of 2827 Union boulevard, music. teacher and prise beauty, did riot ride in a patrol wagon when she had a man arrested on a charge of mashing. An account of the arrest in Sunday’s Post-Dispatch contained the erroneous statement that she accompanied Martin Walsh, the prisoner, when he was taken to Police Headquarters in the wagon. As it is customary for the prosecuting wit- ness to ride to the station in the wag- on is was wrongly assumed that Miss Du Benrick did this. “My friends have been twitting me about it and it has greatly humiliated mé,”’ said Miss Du Benrick.

Photographs Taken at Almost Arm's Length Will be Shown. — —— EVENING JANUARY 18, 1911. ~ GNROSSING BLL Council to Hold Special Session on Grade Measure While He Stops Over. Councilman Davis hopes to win énough votes to insure the passage of a bill imposing on the city the damages: to abutting property from abolition of the Missouri Pacific grade crossing at Chou- teau avenue. The damagés have been estimated * from $18,000—the figures of President Reber of the Board of Public Improve- ments—to $300,000, the amount which owners of the property say they will claim. Consideration of the bill was post- poned until Jan. 30, because. on that day Councilman Norvell, who is in Califor- nia, will pass through St. Louis on his way to Europe. A special meeting of the Council will be held, and while wait- jing for his train to the Hast, Norvell will go to the City Hall and remain there long enough to cast his vote for the bill. He has written Councilman Davis respecting his plans. When the Council] met Tuesday friends of the bill were not strong enough to insure its passage, so that Davis and Counciiman Crunden, a majority of the rublic Improvements Committee, re- fused to report it. Councilman Schutz, chairman of the committee, could not quae ewe, « —— his minority re¢ommendation that the bill be defeated. He désires to see the cost assessed against the rail- road company. Council Closely Divided. A few minutes before the councilmen went into a caucus to discuss the meas- ure Mayor Kreismann sent to Council- man Schutz a letter from C. S. Clarke, first vice-president of the Missouri Pa- cific, announcing that the rallroad would build a viaduct if the city would assume the consequential damages. Other councilmen, it is said, knew that this letter was to be sent and hoped that it would alienate some votes from | Councilman Schutz. In the caucus it developed that Presi- dent Gundlach and Councilmen Schutz, Schneiderhahn, Lehmberg and Evers were opposed to the bill. Councflmen Davis, Crunden and Espenschied strong- ly supported it. Councilman Fitzsim- ‘mons was classed as doubtful. Lambert, Leahy and Norvell were absent. Davis is being aided in his effort to put the damages on the city by Mayor Kreismann, President Reber and Speak- er Rombauer of the House of Delegates They contend that to attempt to force the Missouri Pacific to pay the whole cost of abolishing the grade crossing would be to start litigation that might continue 10 years. Tt is the belief of those who are fight- ing the measure that if it is carried it will-be followed by the reintroduction «of the bill vacating streets in the Ranken tract for the use of the Terminal Rall- road Association.

COLLIER’S believes that the public ought to be in closer toucl. with these sources of opinion and power. We have decided, therefore, to make the great feature of Collier’s, all through 1911, a series of articles on the newspaper as one of the leading forces in modern society. We shall give the history of the news- paper; show why free government could not exist without it; describe the value of | yellow journalism, and its harm. We shall answer such questions as “‘What is News?”’ We shall explain the forces which a newspaper is compelled to face, including the financier, the advertiser, and the. general reader. Part of the series will be written by experts from the inside. Part will present the views of outsiders. We shall take up journalism in various specific places. Residents of Boston, San Francisco, Charleston, Chicago, and many other towns and cities, will not only learn new things about their newspapers, but will tell us what they think about them. Will Irwin, after a year and a half of investigation, starts with a series ‘of fours.” teen articles, which will begin in COLLIER’S for January 21st and will appear about every other week. — & It would be easy to “muckrakes™, —— a geal Pas : American journalism—to take‘an instance here, a defect there, and by massing detri- mental truths present a picture of a press untrue to its ancient tribunate of the people. . ee pe ; - —— ae — * — — * — ide — * — ko Fes ‘GTR a 43 — a oe i J ——— a COLLIER’S has avoided that.

This was decided upon at a meeting of the executive council of the Anti-Compulsory Vac- cination Society Tuesday afternoop. Dr. A. Siebert, a member of the so- clety, told a Post-Dispatch reporter Wednesday that school authorities are liable for damages to the parents of children denied education in the public schools because they refuse to submit to vaccination. : According to Dr. Siebert’s counsel, the law in the case is laid down by the Su- preme Court in the case of State vs. Cole. This decision reads. “‘We are of the epinion that the school boards of Missouri have the right to en- act and enforce rules of the character here in question at all times whenever there is either a smallpox epidemic in the district or whenever there is a threatened smallpox epidemic.’’ - Dr. Barnett Wyllie, assistant to Dr. James Stewart, told a Post-Dispatch re- porter Wednesday that, in the opinion of the school physicians, there is neither a smallpox epidemic in St. Louls at present, nor is one threatened. Oan’t Be Prosecuted Dr. Stewart has deciared that parents who persisted in keeping their children from schoo] rather than have them vac- cinated, would be reported by the truant | officers and prosecuted under the com- pulsory school attendaice law of 190.

DUKE IS: WELL PLEASED Is:in Market for Trades but Will Probably Stand Pat With Present Squad. “T am pretty well satisfied with my present squad of players. However, we are always willing to talk trade when we believe we will be able to strengthen dur. forces, but at. present we have no deals pending.”’ That's what Manager Roger Bresna- han of the Cardinals had to say to the Post-Dispatch Wednesday. The Duke arrived, after a week's hunting trip in the wilds of Tennessee. He says he had fair luck, considering the warm weather he ran against. ‘Bresnahan is here to make a few pre- liminary afrangements prior to the team’s departure for West Baden, where the players will work out a week in advance of the regular training sea- $on, which will be held this year at League Park. In Taking a Long Chance. ‘Roger admits he is taking a long chance in planning to prepare his ath- letés on the home lot for the 1911 cam- paign. However, he says he has a “hunch” that it will be warm enough ‘to permit the players to get as much g00d work here as they would in some Southern city. He bases his claim on the fact that the weather in St. Louis in 1909 and 1910, om the team’s return from Little Rock, was: warmer than in the Arkansas city. '“T belleve it will be warm enough fer us to work at League Park after we have a week in West Baden,” said | Roger. ‘I haven't given much thought to the possibility of running into cold weather. However, if, after we return te St. Louis and find out in two or threes days that it is not warm enough to work here, we will hit out for some a question of a night's ride, so the matter isn’t ne a sericts one, after all.’’ Roger is — considerably on his squad of young pitchers. Despite the fact:that-Harry Sallee.and Bob Harmen are young in years, as well as in terms Of ‘big league service, they are his vet- Jeran twirlers. Praise for Steele ang Golden. But Bresnahan: is almost sure that Bill Steele and Roy Golden will prove able helpmates for the ‘‘old-timers.”’ Steele and Golden reported to the Duke last fall. They showed considerable “stuff,” and for that reason Bresnahan looks for them to make their marks in the big league. .Zmich, Hennis, Hearne and Louder- milk are other young twirlers who will be. tried out. From that group Roger is hopeful of developing ’a regular or two. He hasn’t fergotten ‘‘Rubé’ Gey- er, who, if past performances count for anything, should be a winner. Roger says he will dicker with other National League clubs for players, and will turn any deal that he believes will be beneficial to his outfit. It is probable that he will attend the National League meeting next month to discuss deals ‘with fellow managers. ‘ Roger will probably be joined in a day or two by President M. Stanley Robison. The Duke says the players will be noti- fled to report in St. Louis March §. They leave that night for West Baden. A week’s stay at that place will be suf- ficient, he says. , a Strikes and Spares With 47 pins handicap on each game, the Tally Hos took two out of three games from ithe Buxton-Skinners in their match in the Commercial League. The Fountains, with 60 pins a game, took the odd one from the Budwelsers. With 69. pins a game, the Rivals took two games from the &tifels. Whfle.this was going on, the Golden Rods whitewashed the Monticellos, taking all three games in easy style. : j Capt. Wooster Lambert of the Planters team has ordered seven very classy bowling shirts from a local business house, so .as to make sure that his men will make a good showing.

Rumors of a return match are with- out foundation. ss. ¢-e# 8 How It Happened. OW if you want the real, real “inside” about that famous star chamber session—as a re- sult of which negotiations for the Browns were dropped, here's the stuff—it. passed the censor and the quarantine via the mental telepathy route: Ample funds for the deal were in sight .when the tentative purchase was made; and even when the first payment of $30,000 was down, no hitch in the deal was visible: It was net until, the raising of the big money began in earnest -that a deplorabie situation was noted. According to the “inside” story, two of the mem- bers of the syndicate, more heavily interested. than the others, were de- pending for their capital on loans to be secured by real estate in which they had a joint interest. But when the timetd raise the money on this property rolleq around, the banks balked. Why? Because the securities offered were part of an unsettled es- ‘tate, which was still in the Probate Court. . The property, tiWerefore, not being available as security, the two gentlemen were compelled to with- draw at the éleventh hour. The re- mainder of the capitalists were un- able to raise the netessary funds at short notice; and pouf! Away went Opportunity on wings. * “s ° Here’s a Real Sport. 1 is told, also, that R. L, Hedges reaped the $30,000 or so of first payment money. So he could have, had he been Shylock. But some of his friends tell that he cut -up the first payment and let the would-be magnates off with a nominal sum to reimburse him for his loss of time and his trouble. All of which makes Robert Lee meas- ure up to a man’s standard. * ~ > ' Back to the Minors, @M JONES its to go. Hughey Jen J nings has asked waivers on him ‘and is baseman to take the place of the one- tyme Brownle. Jones figured in a peculiar deal and one which circumstances made result very badly for the Browns. In mid- season, when Claude Rossman had gone all to pieces and the Tigers were hang. ing on the ropes, Hedges rushed {nto the breach and traded Tom Jones to Detroit for Rossman. -Claude refused to report, for.a long time, and he dis- appeared again immediately after he was ordered to play first base by the Browns’ management. It was stated at the time of the deal that-if Rossman failed to show up, Jones was to report back to thé Browns. “But Rossman aid not show, nor did Jonés come back to the Browns. Instead he remained wit the Tigers; and his’ 06d Work on the initial bag@and his clean hitting restored confidence to the wilting Tiger club, the | tearn winning the flag. Thus Hedges’ conttibution won a pen- nant for the Tigers, and netted the St. Louls team nothing, unless Jennings grew generous and kicked in with some Jagniappe to make up for the evanescent : looking for a new first} quite as far for the Antipodeans to ceme to England te take part in the chal- lenge rounds. But they did and they wrested the trophy from French,. Bel- gian, English and American competi tors on foreign soil. The fact, too, that England and the United States are forming a dual) alli- ance indicates an intention to freere out the men from the Orient. And it’s an even money wager that, if either the can or British team thought it cou take the measure of Brookes and Wilding, it would be on its way next summer to turn the trick: Isn’t there somewhere a good, kind “angel” gwning a sugar trust that will finance a team of Americans across, the long water journey, just to show them we still have a little bit of sportsman- ship left? [) ing around that third league candle until he is singed good and brewn. Mr. Fletcher had one ex- perience and failed to make good. * He will have another that will be a still larger failure. Daniel says it’s his judgment that a third league will be just the thing for 1912; and that by that time he will have all the requisites com- pleted. But, dear Mr. Fletcher, consider what the requisites for eight baseball clubs amount to, and see if you can put that curve across the financial plate. Stop to think that the tail-end 8t. Louls American League club was actually sold, even though not delivered, for over $600,- 000. Imagine with what difficulty yeu are going to Install eight other clubs, even as cheap as this, to say nothing of affixing names to contracts at salaries that would make the-shade of Croesus rest uneasily. Figure in, too, the cost of a war against organized baseball, entrenched thoroughly as a result of several years of amity. Then count yourself lucky if you could get out of the difficulty with an expenditure of $5,000, 000. ’ * + * NV men who are willing to risk this amount in a war investment; but yowWve got the best ef every other captain of industry in the business world, if you de.

24 ANARCHISTS DOOMED 10 Dit: UNE IS A WOMAN Tokio Editor and His Wife Sen- tenced to Death by High Japanese Court. THEY CHEER THE VERDICT Former San Franciscan’ Acqused of Conspiring Against the Royal Family. By Associated Press. TOKIO, Jan. 18.~Twenty-five men and one woman, against the Throne and with - -plotting to assassinate the Crown Prince and high officials of the empire, today were publicly _sentenced by the Supreme Court. Twenty-four of the prisoners, includ- ing Denjiro Kotoku, who once lived in America, and his wife, were condemned to death. The other two wert sent to prison, one for 11 years and the other for eight years. The trail had been secret, but the final dramatic scene was witnessed by the’ diplomats and many prominent Japanese. When sentence had been pronounced one of the doomed men rose and shouted ‘‘Banzai!’’ At this all of the prisoners sprang to their feet, and Kotoku, raising his hands above his head, cried: “Long live anarchy!’ There was oo further demonstration and the prisoners turned quietly to their guardians and were again handcuffed and led away. Plotted a Revolution. In pronouncing sentence, the Chief Justice read a long statement outlin- ing the conspiracy, and said the course of the crime leading to the arrest of the anarchist and the subsequent trial which had been exhaustive and every detail fair and constitutighal, had ap- proved beyond doubt th “Kotoku and his associates violent revolu- tion by means of explosives and deadly weapohs. They intended to plunder the wealthy, burn the Government offices, assassinate the high officials, attack the imperial palace and attempt the life of the Crown Prince, whose place is less gecurely guarded.” The prisoners accepted their fate smil- ingly. In leaving the court Mme. Koto- ku bowed to the spectators and said: ‘‘We beg the pardon of all of you.” It is impossible to obtain a reliable opinton as to the probability that the death sentences will be commuted, but it is thought possible exile for life may be substituted for the death penalty. Kotoku, who was formerly connected with a Tokio newspaper and at one time lived in San Francisco, where he is said to have been associated with a political organization, was the al- leged leader of the plot discovered last September. All of the prisoners were first ar- raisned before a special court, the du- ties of which are similar to those of a grand jury in America. On Nov. 9 this court announced the prisoners had’ been found guilty and recommended they be punished under clause 73 of the criminal statutes, which provides capital punishment for plotters against the imperial famfly. The wife of Kotoku: was the only woman in the band. The trial proper opened in the Supreme Court on Dec. 10. The public was excluded on the ground publicity tn connection with the proceedings might be prejudicial to peace and the maintenance of public, morals.

“TO SITES UNDER UBSERVATION FOR Int PUBLIC LINKS Scanlan Reports to Council That the Cost Should Be Less Than ‘$25,000. OFFICIALS FAVOR SCHEME

Comptroller Promises Commis- sfoner Whatever Money He May Need for Project. * Si. Louis probably wil) have a public gO:if links in Forest Park, as suggested by the Post-Dispatch, before the end of this vear. Replying to a recent résolution adopted : by the Council, with the view of deter- mining the cost of establishing a Course, Park Commissioner Scanlan says he hopes to lay aut the links, and has done some preliminary work to find a sultable situation, and ascertain the cost of a course. The expenditure required to give St. Louisans a free public links, Park Corm- missioner Scanlan says, ought to be Jess than $25,000. This estimate, he says,’ is based on figures obtained from persons who are familiar with the cost of pri- vate links. The sum he names, he says, contemplates a first-class course. Two Sites Under Obsegvation. Two sites have been tentatively se- lected. for the proposed free golf Mnks. One of these is in that part of Forest Park, west of the Art Museum. About ‘2 acres of ground on which there are natural hazards are available there. The other site les in the “lower plane” of the park, north and east-of the museum, and on what in part was the race track of the Triple A Club be- fore the World's Fair. The tract in the western section of the park is adapted. for an “48-hole course, while that in the plane would be suitable for one half as long. Using employes of the park to main- tain the course, the annual expense, it is believed, could be kept below $250 a year, This sum would include the cost of adding hazards frem time to time. Park Commissioner Scanlan told a Post-Dispatch reporter that. he favored a public golf course in Forest Park, but could not last year find the money with which to establish and maintain it. Provision for this purpose may be made in the next annual appropriation bill, which Comptroller Taussig will begin to prepare about the first of next month, Comptroller Taussig has promised that he will allow any sum that Park Com- missioner Scanlan recommends to be spent for a public golf links.

Special Cable to the Post-Dispatca and New York World, Copyright 1911. by Press (New York Word. Os LONDON, Jan. 18.—Mrs. Asquith, the Liberal Premier’s wife, who was Emma Alice Margaret Tennant, society woman and wit, “Woman of the Serpent’s Tongue,”’ according to the poet Watson, seemed to enjoy her new experience of appearing on’ the witness stand in a society slander suit yesterday. She wore a black velvet dress, a large black hat with white feathers, and her demeanor was one of cheerful uncon- cern. She answered: questions in clear tones. and with decision, and counsel failed to mold her testimony to suit his purpose. Mrs. Asquith made one smart retort when she was asked whether the fact that the plaintiff had been described as extravagant would interfere with her social position. “Why,” replied Mrs. Asquith, “I shoyld think that, on the contrary, it would be her best passport to society.”’ Another time she said: “When we came into office," but with a smile she in- stantly corrected the slip. ‘I should have said, when my husband came into office.”’ Altogether she was a clever and alert witness, and the plaintiff gained nothing by her evidence. The suit is one in which Sir Algernon West, a for- mer official. of the highest distinction and character, having been Gladstone's favorite secretary, was sued by his daughter-in-law for slander, the alle- gation being that he had told a num-| ber of society people that her separa- tion from his son was brought about by her extravagance, thereby, as she charged, damaging her social position, whereas in reality, she alleged, the sep- aration was due to her husband's mis- conduct. A feature of the case is that a num- ber of women of high position and life- long friends seemed to have betrayed Sir Algernon’s confidence as to his daughter-in-law. <A verdict .will be giv- en today.

Sleighbells for Autos. To the Editor wf the Post-Dispatch, It being generally recognized that something more than the honking horn is needed to rob the silent automobile of its menace, several read- ers have suggested the equipment of autos with continuous noise-producers. But as we talready have too much noise in our streets, the sugges- tion has fallen flat. A correspondent now suggests sileighbellis, which are not mere noise-producers, but are mu- sical and cheering both in themselves and. in their suggestions.. In Russia not only the sleighs but droskies or carriages used for hire are equipped with jingling bells, giving pedestrians notice of their approach. Such bells, small and musical in their effect upon the ear, have always been popular, and are as well adapted te one vehicle as another. In the event that automobiles shall be equipped with sleighbells, it would be well to have the bells so connected with the mechanism as to cause them to jingle slower or faster, according to the speed of the vehicle. The throbbing of the bells on a sleigh in motion warns the pedes- trian ‘as. to the speed of the horses..

To the Bditor of the Post-Dispatch. “That was where my husband caught hig death,” says Mrs. Kern, referring to the Work- house, “at the Workhouse they took his warm clothing from him and dressed him-in a thin cot- ton shirt and trousérs.”: Two days later Kern ‘became ill and a cough developed into lung trouble from which he died.

old law, the mischief and the remedy. When we reflect over the strenuous militancy of a chief executive in mat- ters judicial, we can see the boot and spur which seemed to make of the De- partment of Justice a puppet of his per- sonal desire. It has been compiained of the Federal judiciary—especially its sub- ordinate courts—that they have en- croached on the prerogatives of the State courts in their independent inter- pretation of State law, while casually administering it at the instance of non- citizens and non-residents. But we scarcely think the course that judiciary has taken is se much subject to criti- ¢cism as the spirit of this abortive step. though the principle at bettom is the same, * ¢ * to be here adverted to, which is only optimistic’ in nature on the theory that to realize where we stand is the best way te see whether we should remain or advance or recede. That suggestion fs that the Federal executive depart- ment—at least at the time this prosecu- tien was begun—showed either that it distrusted states in the prosecution ef an alleged offense where aspersion was cast on its chief executive, or it looked te its own judiciary: as the supine serv- ant of its will. As to this the sadness of the sugges- tien is, that the executive department could entertain such thoughts—the op- timism is in the credit with which every Federal judge who has been appéaled to emerged frem the test. New Congress should clear its skirts of all suspicion by no longer suffering Federal statutory courts to administer any other law as State law than that upon which State courts place their imprimatur.

The Evening Newspaper A canvass of 135 department stores in cities of more than 75,000 population elicited from 102 thé unequivocal opinion that the evening newspaper is a better advertising medium than the newspaper published in the morning. The reason is plain to see. Six days of every week the morning paper is read by people on their way to their offices, and either left in the street car or tossed to one side in the office. The evening paper is carried home. The family reads it. Its con- tents are likely to be the subject of dinner table discussion. When her day’s household labor is ended, the wife sits down with the evening paper to read the news and search the advertisements for bargains. The morning paper is a sort of casual caller. The evening paper is a visitor, a friend, coun- selor and companion, Its influence is far stronger with its readers than the influence of the hastily-scanned morning paper. That is why it produces so much better results for » the advertiser.

URGE ACTION AT ONCE Point Out That Lower Duty Has Been Democracy’s Slogan for 110 Years.- By a Staff Correspondent of the Post- BALTIMORE, Jen ii—Judson Har mon, Governor of Ohio, and potential Candidate for President in 1912, and Jo- seph W: Bailey, Senator from Texas and actua) (not titular) leader of the Democratic party in the Senate, in spite of past controversies, today publicly put an accelerater on Champ Clark, who expects to be the Speaker of the next House of Representatives. The occasion was the celebration of Jackson day here, though Jackson got only passing notice. The immediate point on which the accelerater was fixed was the revision of the tariff. Clark had announced that, “so help me, God, we are going to do it,”” re- ferring to a downward revision of the tariff. But Clark then went into a la- bored argument to the effect that the

tariff must not be revised as a whole— must not be revised even by schedule— but must be taken up by items. He said that a conference of the House Democrats, with those elected to the next House, had been called for Thurs- day night, with the purpose of appoint- ing the Democratic me of the next ways and means Ate«e, these members to spend the time intervéfiing between now and next December in pre- paring a real tariff bill. Clark Counsels Dela “We could not afford to giap ‘together a tariff bill,”’ he said, ‘without due in- formation on which to base one.” Clark followed immediately by saying that Thomas Jefferson, in his inaugura! speech of 1801, had laid down the prin- ciples of the Democratic party, and tha* none of the principles had been changed since. He returned, however, to a de- fense of his policy of delay in tariff revision, having met with complete si lence at the initial statement. Again there was no response. ., The audience had received Clark with enthusiasm when he was introduced and had applauded his Missourismas, most of them familiar to chautauqus audiences throughout the country. They cheered his so-help-me-God declaration, but sat blank and perplexed when ‘told that his vehement promise was to be carried out in the most time-consuming manner. Clark made this assertion in spite of the fact that Judson Harmon, who preceded him, has announced that the vote last November was a verdict of the people for immediate revision.

tion, in his conservative speech, all | the consequences that must follow | on @ general tariff revision, but said ‘that, in spite of these considerations. the country woul& be much better | off after taking the medicine and | better for the country. He said: “Outeries, threats, predictions of | calamity we mist expect and pa- tiently endure. But there is no more wholesome stimulus to business than the assurance that nobody is to ob-. tain special advantages from any | public sources.” When the applause following this statement had died down, the Govern- or added, impressively: “The risk, whatever it may be, must be run some time, and the sooner the | better. We now hold a commission from | the people to revise the tariff on the line of a tax for revenue only. Let us do it.” After this speech came Champ Clark, defending the project of delay and telling the audience that the plan already had been formulated by him- self and the other Democratic House leaders. When Senator Bailey of tines was introduced the audience rose and waved flags for three minutes. This was the great reception of the after- noon. The Senator first spoke of Democracy now breaking sectional lines and then of the long time the Democracy had followed a false prophet, making a side reference to the fact that the Republican party hed in Roosevelt a leader who ap- pealed as much to passion and preju- dice as ever did Bryan, the reference being particularly to Roosevelt's Os- sawatomie speech. General Rule for Revision. Then the Senator took up the tariff. He said, first, that he would. presume to lay down a general rule for tariff revision. This is it: “Levy a duty on every article from the importation of which an apprecia- ble amount of revenue can be collected, and make the duty on each article as low as the necessities of the Govern- ment will permit.” Bailey would make only one excep- tion, that tn favor of the necessaries of life, and these, so far as the Gov- ernment can dispense with revenue, he would. place on the free list. To avoid the charge of Gen. Hancock that “the tariff is a local issue,’’ Bailey said that no duty should be laid for protection, but that every duty snould be laid for revenue. Then, turning to Mr. Clark

and addressing him as ‘Mr. Speaker,” the Senator said, dramatically: “Do you know ‘what is the highest rate of the Payne-Aldrich-Smoot tariff? It is on. blankets—cheap blankets, that the poor, the very poor, have to keep themselves warm in the cola winter nights. Talk to me about a compro- mise with a bill like that! Ar. Speak: er, the only way to revise a bill like that is to cut its head off. The people commissioned us to do it. Let us do it now.” Referring . to Clark’s sles that the party must have preparations for the revision of the tariff, Senator Bailey called attention to the fact that tariff revision downward always has been the Democratic party’s slogan. Leading Plea for 110 Years. “The Republican party has always contended that we are incompetent to carry out the promises we make while we are in the minority,’”’ he said. “Shall we confess now that we are incompe- tent—that we are ignorant of the sub ject that has been our leading topic for 110 years?’ Then, turning again to Mr. Clark, Senator Bailey said, slowly, deliberate- ly and with evident purpose * jthe point should be noted: “If you (the House Democrats), with ite ae ' FOR SALE AND WANTED ABE upright, ‘t ndsome mahe * excellent cond e with solid “mahogany mente bench offs Ha’ $180; — pay: io Fo eft aa itd sautiy 2 — PIANO S125 buys She: pianos ren 2 St. Louis av. ** apie or sale. elegant $500 upright ma- howany: well-known ve used 6 mont wd rare chanes to buy a polend’e instrument PI N For sale, $500 uvrigh? mahogany pi- ano. well-known m nee 6 m months: rare chance to by) splendid nstrument * with stool and MO z Ma Fst Shee am Co PI ‘NO- : ui buys fine upr , tH

Then Bailey, still addressing Clark, said: “There is no difference among Demo- crats as to what the verdict of last November meant regarding. the: tariff. There is some difference among men who call themselves Democrats. If we disappoint the people, woe to the Dem- ocratic leaders."’ This again was cheered, to the extent that Senator ‘Bailey could not continue for some time. Then, just to show that there was no hard feelings, the Senator said: This meeting is not supposed to be political, but I will have the temerity to say here, appropos 1912, that if Clark makes a better Speaker than Harmon makes a Governor, we will nominate Champ Clark for President. If Harmon makes a better Governor than Clark makes a Speaker, we will nominate Harmon. I hope this sentiment will harmonize this meeting; please don’t spell that with a capital H.” — But the audience did, and shouted. Reference to Presidency. In his speech Clark interjected his own presidential candidacy. He said he was wedged in between Gov. Har- mon—"blushing freshly from his laurels, or blushing from his fresh laurels” and “‘My handsome friénd,” Senator Balley of Texas. “T,” added Clark, “represent the com- mon people."’ Former Senator Blackburn of Ken- tucky closed the afternoon. At the banquet last night Gov. Foss of Massachusetts and Senator Shiveley of In‘iana were missing. Their places were taken by congressmen. Among the banquet speakers was Theodore A. Bell of California, who, Bryan insisted, should be made chairman of the iaat Denver convention. Bell made the key- note speech at the convention Yor Bry- an, and in his speech last night re- ferred to Bryan as the greatest Demo- crat since Jefferson and Jackson. This was the only mention of Bryan’s name, with the exception of the indirect ref- erence made by Senator Bailey. The Baltimore meeting was attended by many of the newly elected members of the Sixty-second House en route to Washington to attend the caucus called by Clark for Thursday. John Alden Thayer was among them. Thayer is the new member from the Third Massachu- setts District. who issued a circular let- ter to his 88 newly elected colleagues, asking them to meet him in Washing- ton today before the meeting of the Clark caucus, A number bf these mem- bers were seen after the afternoon meeting yesterday, and it ig evident that Clark’s plan of putting off all tariff re- vision until next December will re- ceive a severe jolt in his own caucus. 3 KILLED IN FREIGHT WRECK Locomotive Blows Up on the New York Central Line.

Trading: Is Active in the First Hour; Steel Issues Are Lower. NEW YORK, Jan. 18. Reading was the strong feature of the ‘Jate market, rising above 158 on a very heavy buying movement.

Reading moved into new high ter- ritory oh the movement, but the effect on the general market was slight. Trad- ing was quiet at the noon hour. Bonds were firm. The stock market displayed an uncer- ‘tain tone at the opening of the specu- tation Wednesday. The U. S. Steel is- sues were lower. Trading was on a heavy scale in the first hour. The London market just about fol- lowed our advance of Tuesday, and American issues were irregular with not much change before the local open- ing. The general market abroad is quiet, with the tone in most departments good.

~ GRAN PIT IS | Wheat Moves Through Narrow Range; Weather Still Bull Factor. . There was little in the news Wednes- day to stimulate speculation in grain, and prices drifted through a narrow range. Professionals again made the market, cominission house trading being light. The weather map showed the dry sec- tion in the Southwest still without snow covering, and damage reports were num- erous. Chicago interests were buyers on the weak spots, but were not active in manipulation. Continued liberal offers by Russia, Argentine ani Australia is a bear factor. Corn was inclined to react. Weather, on the whole, is favorable to the move- ment and receipts likely to increase if prices advance further. The mand is disappointing, although liberal gales are being made at low prices. Traders ridicule the expert estimates being made on the Argentine exportable surplus, as the crop is still to be haz Oats were quiet in the local markit. Liverpool prices opened %@%d higher on American advices, but met some sell- ing on liberal Plata and Russian offers pressed for sale. ¢ign crop reports, with a lighter demand ‘from the Continent, made foreign bulls cautious.
