Ps ie De clares J. P. Morgan Had No Hand in Deal by Which Steel Corporation Absorb4 ed Rich Coal ‘and Iron Company. INVESTIGATORS MOVE TO NEW YORK CITY Inquiry Into Merger of ~ Southern Corporation With the Trust Will Be Conducted There—Hanna Was Manager of Concern.

By Assoctated Press. NEW YORK, July 2%—That the financing of the Tennessee Coal and Iron Co. syndicate in 1905 did not cost as much as “a postage stamp” was the declaration made today by L. C. Hanna ef Cleveland, O., before the Stanley Steel Trust Investigating Committee. Hanna, who was a manager of that Syndicate, before the company was ab- Borbed by the United S+-tag Steel Cor- poration in 1907, also trewfied that the main purpose of the men who took over the Tennessee company then in compe- tition with the steel corporation, was to acquire and develop the great mineral mechanical ni resources rather than the : equipment of the property. “In the organization of that syndi- cate,’” Congressman Stanley asked, ‘‘did you employ J. P. Morgan or any other financial syndicate to float your bonds?"’ “The financing of the Tennessee Co. did not cost as much as the price of a postage stamp,”’ Mr. Hanna said. ‘‘There were no bankers employeu.” Tells of Conference, Hanna related the story of the con- ference held in J. Pierpont Morgan’s library, Where the merger was effected niter Judge Gary and Henry C. Frick returned from their hurried trip. to Washington to get the approval of Pres- ident Roosevelt to the transaction. He said he did not know Gary had zone to Washington, or why, and that he asked no questions about that visit. Morgan, Hanna said, was not present when the deal was closed. In response to questions’ by Repre- sentative Gardner, Hanna stated that since the United States Steel Corpora- tion took over the Tennessee Coal and on, Co. and its vast interests, there had. ‘been* organization of no competing steel companies in the United States. Gardner also’ directed inquiry as to the holdings of ore by the steel corpora- tion; as to whether such holdings con- stitute a monopoly. Hanna said he thought there st{Y were in the Sup rior region many merc'iant ore miners inde- pendent of the Steel Trust, and the firm ‘of M. A. Hanna & Co., he thought, had ore land for Sale. “Did you ever Yet orders for steel rails from Harriman?” asked the chair- man. ‘ Order From Harriman. Harriman gavé us an order for 1o:.000 tons of steel rails,” “How long was it fter ve you this order,”” asked Stanley, ‘till you learned that your companv ' Was in trouble in Wall Street?’’ “Tt don’t remember exactly, but thin' ‘¢ | fhelp and had obtained the hot and

WAS TAKING HOME MEN WHO WORKED ON YACHT é

He Hai just Completed Overhauling the Boat Preparatory to Joining His Family— Ate a Hearty Meal Shortly Before He Expired.

| Charles W. Nugent of 3 Kingsbury place, vice-president of the B. Nugent & Bro. Dry Goods Co., died of acute gastritis and organic heart trouble about 11:45 p. m. Thursday in his autemo- ~— bile, while it was standing in front of Dr. Henry A. L. Rohlfing’s home, at 2355 Whittemore place. With him were devoted em- ployes, who had made a frantie trip in the auto from the offices and homes of one physician after another to get medical aid for Nugent. ~ Mr. Nugent had spent the day supervising workmen in over- hauling his fine yacht, the Theotiste, in preparation for a trip Sat- urday up the Mississippi River to Lake Michigan, finally to rejoin his family, which was spending the summer at Gratiot Beach, Mich. He dined on the yacht, the repast including milk and pickles, with chicken, then climbed the steep levee to his touring car, Physicians think this exertion after the meal brought on the 2 4 attack. Mr. Nugent went to ‘the yacht, moored | at the boathouse at the foot of Victor street, at 10:30 a. m., and had Joseph Moseley, his negro houseman and per- sonal servant, take a light lunch to him there. The afternoon was spent in pane OF ing the yacht. one of the largest and handsomest on the Mississippi River, and in stocking it with provisions for the long journey. There were a paint- er and a porter on the boat. Wil- liam Jones of 1802 Olive street, Nu- gent’s chauffeur, also was there. Ate Hearty Meal. . Nugent sent Moseley home to bring a dinner to the yacht. He ate heartily as dusk fell, and then smoked a cigar, looking out at the river. He gave his servants cigars, and they smoked with’ him. The passing of an excursion steamer bound for St. Louls reminded the negro houseman that the hour was growing late, and he suggested to Nugent that they start home. Nugent agreed, and all five climbed the steep levee to the automobile. At Nineteenth and Sidney streets Nu- gent became fll. He was seated in the tonneau with the negro. “Get a doctor, Joe,” he said faintly. The negro had seen Nugent in such attacks before, and knew that he had organic heart trouble. He jumped from the machine and ran into a nearby saloon. “There’s a man sick out here, " he said to the bartender. “Can you give me a glass of hot water and a glass of ice water?” Ald Is Refused. “Pm not a doctor,” said tender. The negro left and went to a gro- cery to get baking soda, knowing that it might help Nugent's stomach. Meanwhile Thomas F. Costigan of 1464 Laurel avenue, the painter, had asked a resident on the street for the bar- colq water. Dr. Elijah A. Scott of Z111A Allen ave- nue happened to pass, and examined Nu- gerit. “Fte's a very sick man,” the physician | aid. ‘You'd better get him to a hospital at once.” Nugent, almost in a whisper, directed the chauffeur to drive to Dr. Rohifing’s office at 2602 Market street. Dr. stohi- fing had been treating him since March for the complication of gastritis and heart trouble. The office was dark. The servants in the auto were excited and anxious, and couléd hardly understand Nugent's direc- tions te drive to Dr. Rohlfing’s home, 2455 Whittemore street. Dr. Rohlfing was ill with stomach trouble, and when he arose from his bed at the summons of the servants he fainted. His wife telephoned for Dr. August G. Wichmann of 2852 Henrietta stpeet, a brother-in-law of Dr. Rohl- fing, who shares his office. “It was about ten minutes of 12 when I received the call,” Dr. Wich- mann told a Post-Dispatch reporter, “and I hurried at once to Dr. Rohif- ing’s home. It was perhaps a minute or two after midnight when I got there. Mr. Nugent was on a couch in the house, dead. I judged, from my examination of him, that he had been walked up the levee soon after cette a hearty meal, and it is probahle this exertion, in the condition of stomach, brought on the attack.” Inasmuch as Nugent technical) 3 ay Ss Ee at. had died without medical attendance, — Dr, Wichmann summoned Deputy Cor- oner Carriere, who, when he had heard the circumstances of the death, ‘ : directed that the body be taken t& Wagoner’s undertaking estabiish- ment, at 3621 Olive street. This was done at dawn under instruc tiong from Dan C. Nugent, a brother, who had been notified by telephone of the death, and had gone from his home direct to the undertaking establishment to arrange for care of ‘ie body. He lives at 3701 Westminster place, only two blocks away. Moseley, the negro houseman, showed much grief as he told of his employer's’ death. He and tHe other servants were devoted to their mags- ter, who was unusually considerate of them. The negro told how Nugent shaved his cigars with the servants on the yacht, and said that, aside from the faint directions as to physicians, Nu- gent said nothing after he was stricken. Anton Pobis, a carpenter on the yaclit, said that Nugent seemed in high spir- its all day. ‘‘He told me he had spent about $400 pufting the boat into shape,”” the car- penter said, “and that at last he had it in tiptep condition. “He was all about the yacht during the day, watching us werk and some- times helping us. Nugent ate chicken and pickles and )drank milk. It may be that the milk and sour pickles are what made him sick."’ d Born in Canada. Charles Wesley Nugent was botn - Belmont, Canada, Dec.

$1,402,846, 817 Mr. Perkins’ plan to raid the public purse was to take up four-tenths of the preferred stock, or about $200,000,000, which was costing the Steel Corporation at 7 per cent interest $14,000,000 a year, and to issue in its place $250,0000,000 of second mortgage bonds bearing interest at five per cent, which would cost the $12,500,000 in an- nual interest charges. Big Saving in Interest. He would thus save $1,500,000 a year in interest charges, the difference between $14,000,000 and $12,500,000, and he would get $50,000,000 new money which the giant corporation had to have. The public was not told, however, that the 5 per cent bonds offered for sale were no better security than the 7 per cent preferred stock, as they were only a second mortgage on the property, and Mr. Perkins, as chair- steel corporation, made a deal with Mr. Perkins, a partner in the firm of J. P. Morgan & Co., whereby the firm of Morgan was intrusted with the “conversion.” Mr. Perkins boasted to bis partners that they would “get fifty millions without costing us anything, and save a million and a half besides.” But Mr. Perkins was unable to persuade the public of the advantage of his plan. Opposition to the conversion led to court proceedings, and only about $150,000,000 of 7 per cent pre- ferred stock was actually retired. Wor their services in this connection, Pr. Morgan & Co. received more than $6,000,000! It was second mortgage 5 per cent bonds of this kind which were after- ward used by the United States Steel Corporation to pay for the stock of the Tennessee Coal and Iron Co. In order to hide the gross overcap- italization of the United States Steel Corporation, Mr. Verkins, as chair- man of the Finance Committee, re- sorted to a unique bookkeeping de- vice in the published statement of the company's business. What He Called Gross Business. He published as the gross business of the United States Steel Corporation NOT the aggetegate of the sales of the finished steel products to the public, but the aggregate gross value of all the commercial transactions conducted by the subsidiary companies, and in- cluding not only the sales made to the public, but the sales made between the subsidiary companies and the gross re- ceipts of the transportation companies for service rendered both to the subsid- lary companies and to the public. In other words, the United States Stee] Corporation measures its business the way Mr. Barnum of circus fame meas- ured his tiger—‘‘thirteen feet two from the end of his snout to the tip of his tail, and thirteen feet two from the end of his tail to the tip of his snout. The biggest tiger on earth, Sir!’’ On a basis of prices received from the public, the total aggregate business of the United States Steel Corporation is less than $400,000,000, as against $703,961,- 424 claimed in ,the 1910 report. This means that the L'nited States Steel Corporation, with its present cap- itaniization of $1,464,903,761, takes more than three and a half years to turn over its capital, but then the ratio of total net earnings to gross is 3 per cent, not 2) per cent, as stated in the published reports. In addition to his activities as partner of J. P. Morgan and chairman of the Finance Committee of the Steel Corporation and the Harvester Trust, ir. Perkins found time for collecting campaign funds for President Roosevelt. In this he was ably seconded by E. T. Stotesbury of Philadelphia, a partner in the Morgan firm. In 194 George B. Cortelyou, who had een placed by Mr. Roosevelt at the head of the Department of Commerce #na Labor, where part of his duty con- sisted in gathering information about the business of the corporations, was taken frum his Cabinet position and made chairman of the Republican National Committee and sent to collect campaign funds from the very corporations he had been investigating. Mr. Cortelyou and Cornelius M. Bliss, treasurer of the Republican National Committee, asked the United States

Steel Corporation to contribute toward man of the Finance Committee of the,

the expenses of the campaign for the election of Mr. Roosevelt. The proposition Was so outrageous that the Steel Cor- poration consulted the most eminent iawyer in the country as to what it could do, and was advised that it could not legally make such a contribution, but that there was nothing to prevent the directors themselves making person- al contributions to Mr. Roosevelt's fund. When this decision was made known to President Roosevelt he in- vited Henry C. Frick, a director of the United States Steel Corporation, to lunch with him at the White House, and, after Mr. Frick, on Oct. 8, 1904, had partaken of the presi- dential bread and salt, he made a voluntary contribution of $50,000 to help re-elect his host. Frick Sent to See Colonel. Mr. Frick was the largest individual contributor to the Roosevelt cam- paign fund of 1904, and on Mr. Per- kins’ suggestion he was chosen at the time of the absorption of the Tennessee Coal and Iron Co. by the United States Steel Corporation to accompany Judge Gary to Washing- ton, in order to persuade President Roosevelt to permit the absorption and guarantee immunity to the Steel Trust. That he succeeded is a matter of history. His success gave the United States Steel Corporation a monopoly of the high-grade iron ore of the country and assured their position as the dominant power in the steel industry in the United States. SAVED FROM JAIL BY HIS CHILDREN Judge Paroles Prisoner When He Sees Little Ones in Court. Two pretty little girls, the children of Charles Kanne, 821 Howard street, saved their father from the work- house in Judge Sanders’ courtroom Friday. The Judge had fined Kanne $50 for abusing his w'fe and children, and the prisoner was about to be re- moved to the cage when the little girls, Mildred, 6, and Catherine, 4, who had been playing about’ the courtroom, attracted the Judge. “Whose children are those?” Court inquired. “They belong to the prisoner at the bar,” a deputy answered. Upon inquiry it was found. the mother would be unable to support the babies properly ff the father was imprisoned. Judge Sanders lectured Kanne and then offered him parole. Hie was told his fine would be remit- ted, providing he went home, stopped drinking and supported his wife and babies. He consented. ACCUSED PRISONER PROVES AN ALIBI Man Proves He Ts Not One Chased by Policeman and Is Set Free. Assistant Circuit Attqrney entered a nolle prosique Friday case against Peter Daly of 686 South Broadway, charged with attempted burglary. The information was issued a week ago at the instance of Patrol- man Flynn, who thought Daly was a man he had chased away from Herman Fensky’s saloon at 3900 Natural Bridge road.. The man jumped over a fence to escape. When Daly appeared at the hospital 10 hours later with a broken rib Flynn thought he had broken it getting over the fence. Daly proved that he had fallen from a porch at 12347 South Van- deventer avenue and had not been near Fensky’s place.

CANADA CERTAIN 10 CONSUMMATt RECIPROGITY PALT Belief Is Tariff Wall at. U. S. Border Will Be Shattered by Christmas.

NEW PARLIAMENT TO ACT

English Influences Actively Op- pose, but American Efforts Are Nominal.

Specia! to the Post-Dispatch. OTTAWA, Ontario, July 28.—Reciproc- ity between the United States and Can- ada will be a fact before the Christ- mas holidays. This in spite of the tre- mendous efforts being made by the British protectionists to defeat the pact that was half consummated when the United States Senate passed the bill that President Taft wanted. The dissolution of the Dominion Par- liament is only a few days off, and then will come an election which—unless ev- ery sign in the zodiac fails— must resnlt in a sweeping Government victory. Fol- icwing this the new Parliament will be called together for a short session to Cispose of the reciprocity agreement. The elections are expected to come with- in two months, and the new - Parlia- ment will convene two or three weeks afterward. Not a doubt as to the Governmenr again emerging victorious from the cam- paign as expressed in the Liberal ranks, and even some Conservative members priv rately admit that they are not at et! personally sanguine of success, esrneugs hey count on reducing the Government’s majority in the House. That early dissolution is sure is be manifested by the fact that members are already engaging their sleeping car berths for the return home next week. The happenings in the parloa- mentary session which already has last- ed eight months cljearly demonstrates the immediate necessity of the peo- ple’s verdict on the attempt of the mi- nority in the Commons to rule, in de- flance to the overwhelming majority supporting the administration. That far-reaching influences are at work to defeat the will of the Canadian people is not denied. This influence, which is largely financial, reaches out from England. If reciprocity should happen to be defeatéd, it would be due to these sinister influences from the outside. . While United States lobbyists are credited with work in the Canadian Federal House their efforts are not nearly so powerful as the emissaries of Britain, who are truckling now to Canada. It might almost be said that the next general election in Britain is being par- tially fought in Canada, for the tariff reformers of England are closely al- lied to the opponets of reciprocity here and are at work. SPOILS SYSTEM RUNS MAD, KERN SAYS OF SENATE Indianian Says Patronage Is So Divided That Half a Man Sometimes Is Awarded.

WASHINGTON, July 28.—Senator Kern of Indiana, speaking,today on a resolu- tion to add several emplayes to the pay rolls, charged that “a spoils system ran mad” in the Senate where Republicans so systematically divided patronage that members often were awarded “half a man.’”’ Senator Dixon, retorted Republican, that the Democratic House had dis- charged all Republican employes, Senator Kern charged the Republicans with trying to provide places for a num- ber of new employes on the Senate rolls, just at the close of the session when they have nothing to do. A resolution putting 16 messengers on the Senate rolls caused the trouble. Senator Bristow explained it was done in order to abolish a bad Senate cus- tom of detailing men. He said it would result in economy rather than extra expense, and would reduce the number of Senate employes. “Well, economy was an issue in the last campaign,”’ said Senator Kern. “If these men are working for committees that never met we ought to abolish the subterfuge and make it plain that we are providing employes nat for commit- tees, but for the individual benefit of senators.’’ VEDRINES WOULD FLY ACROSS AMERICA French Aviator to Compete for Prize for New York to San Francisco Flight.

ENGINEER KILLED WHEN WRECKERS DERAIL EXPRESS

Passengers Are Injured Near Kansas City; Fireman Seriously Hurt.

KANSAS CITY, Mo., July 28.—Rail- road officials and detectives are today investigating the wreck of Chicago Great Western express train No. 6 at Edgewater Junction, Kan., last night, in which W. Rose of Des Moines, the engineer, was killed; Fireman Hugo Smith of ‘Des Moines, probably fatally injured, and several passengers injured, one seriously. Officials say the accident resulted from the deliberate work of wreckers. who left a switch open after prying off the lock. Rose died with his right hand clasped to the throttle of his engine ‘n an effort to check the speed of the train. Smith was brought to a hospital here. Mrs. G. W. Gilbert of this city was was seriously injured. Among the other injured were: A. A. Gehrke, baggageman, Oelwein, Io., bruised. Thomas O'Grady, bruised. Robert Jones, glass. Des Moines, Iw., Mobile, Ala., cut by —_ ~~ a | Perkins as Partner of Morgan Watered Steel Trust Stock Centinued From Page One. the stock of the syndicate had been placed in the hands of the managers with an agreement that it should not be sold below par, the agreement which John W. Gates explained to the committee some time before. “Was the purpose of that agree- ment, placing the stock in the hands of yourself and Moore and Schley, to make the sale easier or to prevent it?” asked Stanley. “The purpose was to prevent it and there never was any official effort made to dispose of the stock until the panic of 1907.’’ At the time of the sale, Hanna said, there were ‘shares of Tennessee stock. He was asked about the financial con- dition of the chief members of the syn- dicate at the time of the sale, and they aid they were all regarded as financially sound. “When did you first learn that the syndicate was in danger of losing con- trol of the Tennessee company?” “On Sunday morning before the sale Schley called me on the telephone.”’ The witness described how banks holding considerable Tennessee collat- eral were in trouble and were demand- ing additional collateral. He described how the Tennessee stock was regarded in Wall Street as “‘peg stock,” because it was controlled by a syndicate and tied up for a fixed period. Its nominal value was about 120 to 130. In Good Condition. At the time of the sale of the Ten- nessee to the United States Steel Cor- poration, Hanna declared, the Tennes- see company was in good financial con- dition and did not need to sell, but the Sale was necessary to avoid the failure of Moore and Schley @pd the threatened spread of a ruinous panic. “The whole financial situation in New York was acute,” said Mr. Hanna, “aad the fear among the wisest financiers Was that it would grow worse, and pass beyond the control of man.” in the transfer the witness admitted, not a dollar changed hands, the transac- tions being executed by the exchange of stock. The effect of the transfer he felt assured, saved the day, and was the turning point for the better in the panic. Details of the sale as fully de- scribed previously during the inquiry, were repeated by Hanna at some length. A former loan of $2,000,000 by the United Siates Steel Corporation to Grant 3B. Schley also was reviewed. During the progress of the hearing Norman B. Ream, a director of the United States Stee] Corporation, arrived in the committee room.

WOOL BILL WILL BE VETOED IF Il IS SENT 10 TAFT President Desires to Await Re- port of Board Which Is In- vestigating.

CONGRESS SUMMARY. WASHINGTON, July 28. te. Met at noon, .. free bill con- tinued as the “unfinished business.” Lorimer election investigation con- tinued. : Senator Kern, in a_ speech, bitterly assailed the patronage system of the Senate. House. Met at noon. Debate on cotton tariff revision bill continued. Chairman Underwood explained the measure which probably will pass Au- gust 3. Informal conferences indicate that House will agree to some sort of wool bill, based on La Follette compromise measure. Compromise wool bill received from Senate amid cheers. Inquiry started into Remsen Board of Pure Food Experts, as forerunner to a Wiley investigation. By Wire From the Washington Bu- rean of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, July 28.—The Presi- dent is likely to veto the La Follette wool bill which passed the Senate yes- terday, or any woo! bill passed at this session. If he does, the President who has said the wool schedule of the Payne- Aldrich act is ‘‘indefensible”’ will base his veto on the fact that a tariff board was authorized by Congress to make a scientific study of the tariff and that this board was instructed to report next December. The President will say Af the wool bill comes up to him for de- cision) that he must await the report of this board. While the La Follette bill fixes a duty on raw wool of 35 per cent, as com- pared with 40 per cent in his original measure, it remains 15 per cent higher than the 20 per cent fixed in the House bill on raw wool. The opinion is unan- imously expressed by regular Repub- lican senators that “the House will not accept the increase. The Bryan Demo- crats of that body strongly favor free raw wool, and the sentiment was op- posed to making a reduction to 20 per cent. That figure was found to be the highest on which sufficient votes could be found to pass the measure in the House. The wool bill will now be returned to the House for action: The House may concur in the Senate amendment or re- quest 2 conference. The latter course is reasonably certain to be adopted. Senator Penrose and the regular lead- ers declare they will not serve as con- ferees. They say Senators La Follette, McCumber and Bailey may undertak? the work of reshaping and ironing out the new bill. WESTINGHOUSE. LOSES IN WAR FOR PROXIES Inventor’s Program Opposed in Election of Directors for Firm Bearing His Name. PITTSEURG, Pa., July 2.—George Westinghouse, beaten in his war of proxies, finds comfort in the belief that the sentiment aroused will soon bring results. Controlling 520,000 shares of 770,- 000, the administration committee of Westinghouse Electric have hammered the founder's opposition into an unsub- missive defeat. They are still counting votes and proxies at East Pittsburg, but Westinghouse’s closest friends see nothing but rout for the inventor's pro- gram. Westinghouse, however, looks wupon the fight as the sure forerunner of divi- dends. The directors’ election contest is now on. The Westinghouse cand!- dates are John B. McCune, president of the Union National Bank of Pittsburg; Richard B! Mellon, vice-president of the Mellon National Bank, and Alexander Cc, Humphreys, president of the Stevens Institute... They are opposed by Ed- ward F. Atkins, Charles F. Brecker and Harrison Nesbit, president of the Bank of Pittsburg.

LORIMER WITNESS TELLS AGAIN OF HINES PHONE mK Attorney for Says Client Told Him About It Same Day. USED PRESIDENT’S NAMP Inquiry Involves Bribery Indict- ments as Detective Who Worked on Case Testifies. WASHINGTON, July 2.—Testifying before the Senate Lorimer committee to- day, Alfred E. McCordic, a Chicago at- torney, declared that Wirth H. Cook re- peated to him the day it is alleged to have occurred the conversation over the long distance telephone in which Edward Hines was said to have stated that Lor- imer must be elected and that he was going to Springfield “with all the money necessary.”’ . Cook had testified that he overheard this conversation in Chicago and that the man at the Springfield end of the line Was supposed to be Governor De- neen. The conversation is alleged to have occurred the day Lorimer was elected. McCordic, who testified today, is Cook’s attorney. In detailing what Cook told him on May 25 or 26, 1908, McCordic said: Used Name of Taft. “He said Mr. Hines had told the Governor that he had just come from Washington and that it was the de- sire of President Taft and Senator Aldrich that Lorimer should be elect- ed and Hopkins defeated, and that he was prepared to furnish all neces- sary funds and would be down on the next train.” “As a matter of yor are you not a promoter and a broker?’ asked Mr. Hanecy in cross-examination. “Oh, no,” replieq McCordic. Other questions were asked which ® counsel explained were intended to show that McCordic had been connect- ed with an attempt to make Hines buy certain stocks from Cook, and that the witness was prejudiced against Hines. Detective Testifies. multiplicity of indictfhents growing out of .the so-called White confession was subject to which counsel for Senator Lorimer de- voted much time today in cross-ex- amining Detective Thomas McGuire, a witness before the Senate Lorimer Com- mittee. McGuire described his work in several of these cases. McGuire told of an attempt to per- suade George O. Glavis to turn dver to James Keeley, general manager of the Chicago Tribune, the books for which Keeley said he had patd $650 and which Glavis is alleged to have said would show Lorimer’s connection with lobbyists. The detective said Keeley was not sure whether the books ever existed or whether they had been sold in other markets. F. W. TAYLOR GETS PHILIPPINE JOB The

ST, LOUIS POST-DISPATCH.

FRANCE RECRUITS ARMY AND SEEKS MOROCCO SOLUTION Cavalry Held in Readiness While Conference Is On With German Diplomats and Supplies for Forts Rushed to Frontier by Special Train.

FRENCH ARMY HEAD RESIGNS HIS PLACE

Differences Over Reorganiza- tion Causes Action—En- glish Reassured Through Asquith Denial That They Oppose German Expan- sion. _———es By Associated Presg PARIS, July 28.—Greater optimism prevailed at the capital today, though it was admitted that the negotiations with Germany regarding the Moroc- ean affair remain difficult. The statement by Premier Asquith in the British House of Commons and Premier Caillaux’s advice to the French to keep cool and be prudent relieved the tension at a moment when relief was most needed and the @iiscreet military preparations were giving rise to the apprehension that war was not impossible. These preparations included orders to the cavalry to be ready for the field at the first signal, the heavy provisioning of the forts on the east- ern frontier by special supply trains run out of Paris at night, and the mustering of all regiments to their full quota. it is understood that Baron von Kid- erlen Waechter, the German Foreign Secretary who is conducting the nego- tiations with Jules Cambon, the French Ambassador at Berlin, has modified his original program, and is now asking for a part, instead of the whole coast of I'rench Congo, but at the same time naming other conditions which France would find difficulty in accepting. Nev- ertheless, there is a strong feeling that a solution will be found. The morning papers welcome Asquith’s speech as clarifying the situation, and hestening a settlement. The Figaro un- derstands that Emperor William told yersonal friends that the Moroccan ques- tion could be settled amicably with l‘rance. ASQUITH RELIEVES LONDON TENSION

Fact That Government Does Not Wish to Obstruct Germany Is Emphasized. LONDON, July 28.—The Moroccan si- moon seemed less sultry today and it was generally conceded that Premier Asquith’s statement had helped to clear the air and to that extent to ease the tension. It is the hope of the British gov- ernment that the Algecires act now hav- Ang been shown to be mere diplomatic patchwork, some more lasting settle- ment will be effected which will tran- quilize the European situation as well as the Moroccan difficulty. Asquith’s announcement that Great Britain has not the least disposition to obstruct a Franco-German agree- ment in West Africa, it is hoped by the officials here, will dissipate the Ger- than behef that the British Govern- ment-is pursuing a policy of endeavor to thwart Germany’s desire for terri- torial expansion. It is considered a hopeful sign that King George is making definite arrange- ments to attend the Cowes regatta to- morrow while the members of the cabi- net are preparing to leave town for the week end. EFFORT TO AVOID AID FR ‘M ENGLAND German and French Officials Hope to Be Able to Untie Moroccan Knot,

BFRLIN, July 28.—It is believed in official circles that France and Ger- many will be able to untie the Afri- ‘an knot by direct negotiations and , without opening the doors to the partici- “ pation of Great Britain and the other powers. Rosy optimism, however, ;s not manifested. Chancellor von Beth- manoa-Hollweg and _ probably Foreign Secretary Baron von Kiderlen Waechter leave today to join Emperor William, who will arrive tonight at Swinemunde from his cruise in Northern waters. Definite predictions would be mis- placed until after this meeting. . The Foreign Office was fully prepared for Premier Asquith’s statement and now confirms that it had earlier assurances that Great Britain would not intervene, eo long as Germany and France were trying to settle the matter directly and also that Chancellor Lloyd-George’s Bpeech Was not meant as a veto of a French-German arrangement on the ba- sis of a French-Congo understanding, as @ section of the British press has {n- timated. , Bf Army to Be Reorganized and Com- mander-in-Chief Quits. .

es _ two official announcements were made. FORMERLY A | ARCHBISHOP OF MANILA WHO was |e ST. LOUIS PASTOR

a 1 Selves in explaining to his colleagues the external political situation, had said that the pour parlerz between France and Germany were proceeding normally. The second announcement was that the cabinet had decided on the reorganiza- tion of the army which represents “the crowning of the military work pursue: by the Republic for the last 40 years.’’ One occasion for the organization is the resignation of General V. Michel as Commander-in-Chief because of differ- ences with his colleagues over the pro- ‘gram of national defense. The Superior Council of War, nsieieeied of generals of the army continues, but the vice-presidency which was held by Michel, will be abolished. A_chiefship the supreme command in time of war, is created instead and General J. J. C. Joffre will be appointed to the latter post. The Superior Council of National. de- fense which is presided over by the Premier and composed of most of the ministers remains with the addition of a permanent Bureau of Study composed of three officers, one each from the de- partments of War, Marine and Colonies. Many other changes have been de- cided upon, all designed to make sure a systematic machine, capable of instant and effective action in time of war. SECOND ADVANCE OF 10 GENTS 100 POUNDS OF SUGAR Two Increases of Price in Two Days Puts Quotation on Staple in St. Louis at $5.80. A further increase of 10 cents a hun- dred pounds in the price of sugar, the second in two days, was announced in dispatches received Friday from New York. Thursday, as told in the Post-Dis- patch, the first increase of 10 cents a hundred pounds was ordered. This raised the price from $5.60 to $5.70 4 hundred pounds in St. Louis. The sec- ond increase, announced Friday, makes the price $5.80. Buyers of smaller lots must now pay $1.20 for 20 pounds. The usual Staple rate is 20 pounds for $1. This means that the small buyer pays the same advance on 2 pounds that the large buyer pays on five times that amount. The only explanation ofthe advance obtainable in St. Louis was that given by Jamg Hutchinson, sugar broker, 4s the entire Cuban crop e *ted the refiners now find .-0O buy their raw sugar Aigh prices. Jiesale price in New York has advatk ai from $5.40 to $5.60 in three days. In figuring the St. Louis price the cost }of freight transportation from New York is added.

He Regains Health He While in Charge of Manila See.

A letter from Archibishop Harty of Manila, expressing his grief at the death of Sister Mary de Chantal, of the Visi- tation Convent, and conveying news of his good health and his hope to visit St. Louis within a year, has been received at the convent. The archbishop was, until eight years ago, Father J. J. Harty, pastor of St. Leo’s church, St. He has made but one visit to St. pouis since his ap- pointment to the See of Manila. Louis. Recently disquieting reports concern- ing his health have reached his former parishioners and fellow-priests here, and it has been stated that he would soon ask the Pope to relieve him of his dut- ies in the Philippines and return him to the States. Also Sends Photograph. The recipients of his latest letter are reassured as to his health by the lack of any mention of ill health, and by an inclosed photograph, taken just the day before he wrote, which showed him ap- parently in excellent condition. Writing of the death of Sister Mary ce Chantal, Archbishop Harty said: “I can enter fully into your feelings at the departure from this life of one of God’s noblest women., I knew her since her earliest childhood. Seldom have I met a stronger and yet a sweet- er character. She forgot self in her en- tire consecration to you all. ‘ Closer to Them Now. ; “She is now living in the best sense of the word. She is closer to you than be- fore—you will sensibly feel this. She wil, aid you In many ways—suggestions to the higher life, more vigor, more self- ec: trol, more light until the nfountain top is reached.” Writing of his own plans, he said: “‘] may visit St. Louis within a year.” He expressed the hope of seeing certain .tiends. The letter was written from Baguio, Pr. L, one of the places which the arch- bishop visits in the performance of his diocesan duties.

: ST. LOUIS SLOGAN - AROUSES CHICAGO COMMENT ON ITY Evening Post Dwells on the. In- vasion There With a Huge Electric Sign.

QUOTES AN ENGLISH CRITIC Points Out That Publicity Cam- paign Is to Be Carried to Other Localities. The big sign erected in Qhicago by the St...Louis League of Electrical In- terests, bearing the slogan selected in the Post-Dispatch contest and adver- tising the resources and advantages of the city, has attracted the attention of the Chicago Evening Post. The St. Louis invasion of Chicago is commented upon by the Post as follows: “St. Louis is awakening. It isn’t yet aroused and alert to the world, but faint symptoms of a life hitherto latent are discernible in the muggy interior town. The latest indication of the town's approach toward life is an jinva- sion of the great cities of the country by the advance guard of the former French trading post. Calis It Invading Force. “The vanguard of the invading force has taken Chicago. Chicago doesn't know it because the small force is lost and dissipated among the more power- ful influences of the West Side. But it is here, and if one has keenness for the pursuit of small things it can be lo- cated.”’ The Chicago symptom is the large Sx. Louis sign, reproduced below: SOME CITIES HAVE A SLOGAN, ST. LOUIS HAS THE GOODS. 20,000,000 people within twelve hours’ travel of St. Louis. Superb factory locations—Coal $1.40 per ton. Address—St. Louis League of Elec- tric Interests. “The original] is, of course, much more resplendant, being a striking combina- tion of black and white against a back- Ero ‘und of red. “In similar fashion St. Louis Is r.arching on Byffalo, Philadelphia, New York, Boston and Kansas City, each to the tune of a single sigh. The invasion coubtless will be successful. Grand Rapids, Keokuk, Kalamazoo, Oshkosh, Reno and Gary, Ind., all attained a part at least of their present supremacy in such a way and St. Louis may do like- wise, Archer Is Qucted, “In its very thrill of conquest, however, comes a disconcerting word from across the seas. William Archer, the great dramatic critic and well- known traveler, thus sums up his im- pressions’ of the metropolis on the Mississippi in the London Morning Leader: “*‘A few Anglo-Saxon cities are seen to advantage ‘immediately after New York. Let these things be borne in mind if I seem’ to disparage St. Louis, Mo.,’ he writes, ‘In St. Louis it was my fate to spend Easter Sunday. And regret- fully but firmly I pronounce it the least attractive of all the great cities in the United States. Its situation is undistinguished, its planning is ruth- lessly triangular, its public buildings are mean. Even the Mississippi somehow contrives to be unimpress- ive. It is a wide river, no doubt, but you have to reason with yourself be- fore you can admit that it is wider than the Thames at Charing Cross, “Looking back from the Eads Bridge at the business center of the city you see that it contains a fair number of tall buildings—perhaps from 15 to 20 stories high. But they have neither the soaring audacity of the New York sky- scrapers nor the fortresslike grandeur of those of Chicago. They are feature- less blocks—nothing more. Over them there rests in the soft, muggy air, a pall of smoke that reminds one of Pittsburg, but of the iurid picturesqueness, the in- fernal majesty of Pittsburg, there is no trace. Interesting Soctologically. “From a sociological point of view, however, St. Louis is far from uninter- esting. It may be called the Philadel- phia of the Middle West, a gigantic symbol and symptom of middle-class prosperity. Of intellectual or artistic ambitions it shows scarcely a trace, but its dry goods stores will compare with any in the world. Evidently the Self- ridges of St. Louis cater to an enormous class of people who have plenty of mon- The local millionaires, no doubt, do their shopping in New York. It is a middle-class prosperity that shouts at us on every hand—an un- ideal smugness of comfort that seems somehow to blend oppressively with the mugeginess of the air. “But, then, William Archer knew nothing of St. Louis’ 30,000,000 nor of its advance upon the cities of the country.’’

CITY AWAITS INVADERS

Coming of Firmin, Head of Ri- val Wing of Revolutionists, Causes| More Anxiety. By Associated Press. PORT AU-PRINCE, Haiti, July 23,~— The revolutionists encompass the cap- tal. President Simon appears to recog- Nize the inevitable, but if he has left the palace the fact is not known, It is believed he planned to embark at the last moment, but it is thought that if he remained in the city he could help to arsure public order following the occu- pation by the enemy. Gen. Leconte is at the head of the in- vading forces. He occupied Gonaives Wednesday, and his advance guard reached Archahade yesterday, and be- fore sunset had! come within three mileg of the. city. Leconte’s candidacy for the presi- dency progresed with his march on the capital and there was a consequent loss of ground by General Firmin, com- mander of the rival wing of the rev- Olution and also an aspirant for the office as national executive in succes- sion to Simon, whose forced retirement is at hand. Another Clash Feared, Generai Firmin’s arrival here is await- ed impatiently by his partisans and with some anxiety by the public lest the over- throw of the present Government result in a clash between the supporters of Le- conte and Firmin.

Any young man desiring a wife who will be careful to inquire whether he wishes his eggs fried straight up or turned over, and who will follow hia exact taste as to rare, well done or me- tum steak, should not overlook ths chance he will have Saturday night to win just that kind of a life companion If he attends the Waitresses’ Union ball at Lemp’s Park and is so lucky as to buy the right ticket, he will have his choice between Misses Tillie and Frieda Young, sisters, who are offered as alter- nate prizes in a love lottery. The win- ner will have the right to choose be- tween them. The Young sisters are employes of a restaurant on Collinsville avenue, East St. Louis, but are members of the St. Louis Waitresses’ Union. Both are skilled cooks and can prepare, as deftly as they now serve them, both short and long orders, from “corned beef and” to gooseberry pie a la mode. Each is willing to exchange her lunch-counéer place for a home of her own, and, as they are orphans, it is promised that there will be no obstacles in the way of the man who wins the drawing. While the winner in the drawing will have his choice, the losers will have the privilege of making as good an impression as they can on the other sister.

ALBERT. ENGEL SURRENDERS Hild LAWYER'S LICENSE This Prevents Bar Association From Investigating Embez- zlement Charges. $40,000 .- SUM INVOLVED In Giving Up Right to Practice Accused Says He Will Take Up Other Pursuits. Albert H. Engel, under charges of embezzling $1500 from a client, and accused of irregularities and debts aggregating $40,000 in estates for which he was trustee and to members of his family, surrendered his license to practice law Friday. The surrender was made in a petition signed by Engel, in which he states that he is “retiring to take up other pursuits."’ He was admitted to the bar Juiy 2, 1897. John B. Denvir Jr., a lawyer, took the petition to the courthouse, and it was understood there that he was acting for the Grievance Committee of the Bar As- sociation, which has been investigating Engel’s affairs. : Engel is holding dajly conferences with Thomas H. Cobbs} his lawyer, to decide whefher he shall plead guilty to the embezzlement charge. It was brought by Mrs. Asa A. Kerr of For- istel, St. Charles County. Cobbs said Friday that the retire-| ment of Engel from the practice of law was at his suggestion. “IT told him some time ago,” said Cobbs, “‘that I would not handle his case unless he retired from the practice of law. I prepared a notice to the griev- ance committee of the Bar Association, stating his intention to apply to the Court for the revocation of his li- cense, and sent in some time ago. This morning I notified the committee of its relcase.”’

NEW YORK, July 28.—A human leg, cut off above the knee, wrapped in brown paper, sacking and olicloth, was taken from the river yesterday off the Lackawanna ferry house, Ho- boken. It was the sixth human frag- ment found in nearby waters within the last week. The parts are unre- lated. There are in the New York morgue the legless and armless body of a man, the right leg of another, the left arm of a third and the right arm of a woman. The Hoboken morgue has a man’s torso and thighs. At Long Beach is a man’s lem.

For several months it has been ev- ident that punishment at home would be meted out to senators who took a strong stand for the vindication of in his de- fense. One of his most persistent and able champions was Paynter of Ken- tucky. He became the first victim of the crusade against those who stood by Lorimer when his exclusion from the Benate was demanded because of cor- ruption in connection with his elec- tion. Paynter saw defeat ahead of him and withdrew from the race before the primaries were held. The people of North Carolina started a similar crusade against Simmons, who voted for Lorimer’s exoneration. His re-election is a matter of grave doubt. Senator Gamble of South Dakota wil! have to pacify his angry constituents before his return is assured.

Previously acknowledged ...8$8245 74 Charles uaap aaa Highland, Bale es 2 00 On sity and Tuesday evenings just past a very delightful carnival was given by a number of little girls on the lawn of Mr. John Kenney’s home, 4558 ;St. Ferdinand avenue, for the benefit of the Post-Dispatch Pure Milk and Free Ice Fund. These helpful girls are Misses Yrene Carroll, Madeline and Loretto Kenney, Helen Earner, Evelyn Chartrand, Ger- trude Coffey and Grace Mahoney, as- sisted by Miss Anastasia Earner in the selling of tickets. They realized a total of $22 for the fund, which they brought down to the Post-Dispatch with great satisfaction, being justly proud of their big success. The carnival was well attended by people residing In the neighborhood, and the girls who arranged and managed it were kept busy selling refreshments and useful and ornamental! articles for the Pure Milk Fund's benefit. They sold lemonade, ice cream and cake, water- melon, dolis and trinkets, and were highly gratified by the generous willing- ness of all in attendance to contribute for the helping of the tenement babies by buying fredy. The older girls in charge of the car- nival were especially anxious that little Evelyn Chartrand should receive due credit for her good work as one of the helping band. “She's only 5 years old,” explained one of these girls, “but she worked awful hard, and you eught to gay something abeut her!’’ and little Evelyn Chartrand herself was vastly pleased with this tribute to} her valuable services. “IT love to help save the babies,’’ she said—and that’s a very splendid spirit, whether it’s manifested by a little girl of 5 or an older person of ten or fifteen times five, because the tenement babies need help and are unable to help them- selves. All arrangements have been perfected for the Piasa Chautauqua Sketch Club performance of ‘‘Mr. Bob,”’ at Piasa Chautauqua tonight for the benefit of the Post-Dispatch Pure Milk and F'ree ce Fund. It is confidently expected that a great success will be scored. The collection for the fund's benefit will be taken up between the first and second acts, and five St. Louis society girls Will act as collectors. They are Misses Gillian and Gladys Richmond ef 50% Cabanne, daughters of Manley Rich- mond, a former president of the Mer- chants’ Exchange; Esther Cummings, sos? Cabanne: Neliie Dicks, 2815 Taylor, and Anice Davis, 5889 Etzel. A splendid enthusiasm prevails on the part of all connected with the benefit performance. Manager M. Johnson of Piasa Chau- tauqua has had big posters printed ad- vertisine the performance of ‘‘Mr. Bob,” and these are preminently displayed. A large sign has also been put up at the hell where the performance will take place, It is lilkely that one of the big- gest audiences of the Chautauqua sea- son will be In attendance.

_6 ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH. FRIDAY EVENING, JULY 28, 1911. ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH.

HEDGES PLEASE Wilh GOOD WO OF NeW BROWNS “Boss’”’ Believes Wallace Has Makings of a Winning Club, Now. BOSTON, Mass., July 28. , OL. HEDGES’ bunch of kid play- ( ers reached Boston this morning, and will play a double-header this afternoon. Indications are that there will be a big crowd, the enthusi- sem of the fans having been awakened -by three straight victories over Chi- cuizgo. Col. Hedges was here himself Wednes- day, but left Wednesday night for New York, where he witnessed yesterday afternoon’s game. ‘ Mr. Hedges is not. at all cast down ever the standing of the St. Louis cinb, nor at the gibes which the press humor- ists have been flinging at it. Neither does he think he is especially philosoph- ical in his attitude. He rather takes the view that he is close to a point where the gibes will be turned into compliments, and the condolence into congratulations. Ir plain English, Mr. Hedges thinks he has as promising a bunch of young- sters as can be found on any club in the country, and with the reinforce- inents which he has already arrange gor, he thinks the St. Louis team of next year is going to play a different brand of ball from the sort which has been associated with the nae of his tome town since the big spurt ef 1908. Net Easy for Yankees. The Browns were beaten again yer- terday, 5 to 4, by the Yankees, but again they proved the truth of the view taken by a local cartoonist that though they den’t seem to amount to much, they are mighty hard to beat. As a matter of fact, they should have won yester- cay’s game. in the ninth inning, with Stephens on third and Wallace on first, and on'ty one down, Criss was brought in to pinch- hit for Nelson. A half dozen balls were pitched to him, yet Wallace never made a move to go down to second. His tardiness was explained by the fear that Stephens is so slow that even if he had drawn a throw, Stephens could never have got home, but the cunnees were ten to one that in the ex- isting circumstances, Sweeney would not lave dared risk a throw. liad Wallace been on second when Criss sent a grounder down that way, fielded by Knight, Stephens would cer- tainly have scored the tying run on the out, but ag it was Knight had only to step on the bag, forcing Wallace, and then shoot it to Chase in time to get Criss. It was poor baseball. Nelson Weakens, 7. — The game was a rather slow one, up to the last two innings. Nelson, for the most part, pitched good ball, his one:bad inning being the third, in which the Yanks scored five, enough runs to win. In that inning every man on the Yanks went to bat and Powell was sent out to warm up; but Wallace afterward de- cided to let Nelson stick. The scoring in that inning was Nelson's own fault. All in all, the New York fans seemed to think a lot more of the St. Louis team than they did when it was here before. They seem to subscribe to: Mr. Hedges’ view that he has a team which is bound to improve and that will give a much better account of itself next year. a - The Naps are drawing banner crowds at home and making up for the poor attend- ance of the early part of the. season, Qa a me ——— -- + a

WED, AND SAT. Sesaxon, OFTIS sete bunch 4 sb | ? 4 | Giants Will Invade Cuba If They Fail to Capture Pennant

And .It Looks Like Cuba, for Them, After That Reds Game, Thursday.

If they do not win the pennant in the National League race, the Giants of New York are to tour Cuba in No- vember, according to Manager John J. McGraw. McGraw completed ar- rangements for the tour Thursday in Cincinnati. He is dealing with Senor Munoz, a Cuban newspaper man, who has been following the Reds since the two Cuban players joined Clarke Griffith's team. McGraw will take 12 players, in- cluding the famed Christy Mathew- son, to the island. They are to spend a month there, playing three games a week. McGraw is showing a changed in- field this trip. Since Al Bridwell and Young Gowdy were traded to the Bos- ton Rustlers for Charley Herzog the latter has been playing third base for the Giants, with Arthur Fletcher, the Collinsville boy, doing duty at shortstop. Arthur Devlin is on the bench, Pd r Diamond Glints

a Cozy Dolan, the Jersey City third baseman, is to report to the New York Highlanders at the close of the Eastern League season. This same player got a chance with the Cin- cinnati Reds two years ago, ep Gia much improved baliplayer now. \ President Ban Johnson and five of the club owners of the American League have noti- fied the Baltimore Mayor that they are op- posed to any change in the baseball map for this year. No switch of the National League clubs can be made without the consent of the American League, so that ends the Baltimore effort. The Montreal club fs asking $10,000 for the rciease of Ward Miller, once a member of the Cubs. He is hitting the ball and run- ning the bases in big-league style and Scout George Huff of the Cubs was there to watch him perform, but the price was a little too high for the Chicago club. It is likely Tom Lynch remembered the en- counter he had with Jack Doyle when he was an umpire, when hé was making his decision in the Magee case. The Phillies will have to play more games with the first division teams for the remain- der of the season than any other of the teams that are making a bid for the flag in the old League. Billy Wamilton, the former star out- fielder of the Boston team, is acting sec- retary of the Beaneaters on the present trip. Peter Kelley, the regular secretary, has been forced to stay at home to attend to the extra duties thrust upon him y the transfer of the stock of the club. Hamilton has been acting as the scout for the club this summer. Jimmy Block is doing his part of help- ing the White Sox by trying out the young pitchers on the home lot. In case a real star is discovered he will be shipped east at once to down the Easterners. Jack Gleason, the new vice-president of the Boston Nationals, and the man that is to act as business manager of the team on the coming trips, has had a lot of experi- ence in that kind of work because of his work in connection with the San Francisco Seals. With the help of Martin O'Toole, the Pirates should at least be able to win a place in the first division this year. Mysterious Mitchell, the pitcher who caused so much excitement in the Pacific Coast League last year, has not been heard of this year. Umpire Steve Kane, who held the indi- cator in the National League last year, has just resigned his job in the Northwest eague because the president in that league did not uphold him in his decisions. Foxy Ned Hanlon offered $169,150 for the Boston Nationals. President Murphy of the Cubs gays that he will not attend the conference of club owners in Baltimore asked for by the Mayor of that city. . Lewis, Hooper and Speaker of the Red Sox play the deepest outfield of any in the American League. Lewis is always within easy reach of the left foul line, and Hooper is close enough to the right line to get anything that falls inside of that line, with the great Tris covering the big patch in center. Joe Wood of the Red Sox has a bad habit which is going to get him into a lot of trouble with John I. Taylor if he does not cut it out. Joe throws the ball just as hard to the first bageman when he is within ten feet of that bag as he does when he stands on the pitcher's slab, and some of these days he will lose a game and then Taylor ee cut in.

ICUBS’ PROSPECTS LOOK BRIGHTER Return of Reulbach and Cole Greatly Pleases Manager Frank Chance. CHICAGO, July 28—Chicago’s poss!- bilities for landing the National League baseball championship increased several per cent Wednesday when it beat Bos- ton in a double header, scores being 4 toland 7 to 2. The prospects did not gv up because it won two games from the tail-enders, but because Pitchers Ed Reulbach and “King’’ Cole displayed such an improvement in form over prev- ious workouts. Had they done this while opposing teams like New York, Philadelphia or St. Louis, Chicago’s stock would have gone much higher, but as it was they showed sufficient to convince ‘the 15,000 fans present that they were now in line for regular drills along with Brown, Richie and McIntire. There was one individual in the ball park who was highly pleased with the pitching of Rédulbach and Cole. Nearly everybody in the park praised the men for their grand work. But this one per- son, who was none other than Manager Chance, felt more than elated over the form they displayed. He said after the games they would have beaten any club the way they twirled. This is about the first time he has said this about them this season. He has been waiting almost impatiently for them to strike their true form, as he realized he would need them tin the keen fight for the ghampionship.” SS FOUR EVENTS ON LAST GRAND RAPIDS CARD GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., July 28.-- Three races for purses of $1000 and the Grand River Handicap, a free-for-a]l pacing event, composed the closing card of the Grand Circuit races here today. The events are: 2:05 pace, 2 in 3, purse $1000; 2:11 trot, 2 in 8, purse $1000; the Grand River Handicap, free-for-all pac- ing for purse of $500 and the entrance fee of $50 for each horse; the 2:16 trot, 3 in 5, purse $1000.

CARDINALS TAKE DROP BUT SHOULD NOT STAY IN SECOND DIVISION After Series With Giants It Should Be Easy Going Against the Lowly Tail End Teams. HE Cardinals have tumbled to the second division again, and the I-told-you-so’s will probably get in their good work. The Men of Bresnahan may remain in fifth place for the next four days wher they entertain the Giants of New York, while the Pirates will have e4SY picking with the lowly Rustlers. But after that the scene shifts, and for the next eight days the Cardinals hope to feast on the Superbas of Brooklyn, and the Rustlers of Boston. Five games are on the program with the tail-enders, one being a postponed contest from the last trip. Nine games against the low- ly teams in the race while the Pirates are playing eight against the Quakers aud Giants should enable the Cardinais to again climb where they belong—la the first division. The Giants inaugurate a four-game series with the Cardinals at League Park Friday. They are in third place in the standing, although the Cardinals rave no fear of the Manhattanites. In the 11 games played by these teams this stason, the Giants own the odd verdict. And. with Manager Bresnahan’s three pitching mainstays on edge the count r:ay be more than evened up. In three of tne four games with the ' Cardinals, the Giants will be forced to perform without the guiding hand of Manager John J. McGraw. He is on the suspended list for three days, as a reé- sult of a run-in in Cincinnati with Um- ' pire Johnstone. it seems that a tough time is ahead uf ee the Quakers.

A player's showing for two Innings is Sallee and Matty Are Pitchers for Inaugural Battle ARRY SALLEE and Christy M. gwson are the probable pitchers in the opening game of the series between the Cardinals and Giants of New York at League Park Friday afternoon. The start- ing time is 3 o'clock. Matty has been ailing with a sore thumb since last Saturduy’s game against the Cardinals in New York, but the member healed suf- ficiently to enable him to pitch an inning against the Reds in Cincin- nati Wednesday. Manager Mc- Graw’s second choice *“Rube”’ Marquard. no criterion of his real ability, but for the short time that George Woodburn occupfed the hill in Thursday’s game against the Quakers, he looked very promising. First of all he displayed a lot of confidence despite the fact that he was facing a strong team in his inaugural appearance as a big leaguer. But he showed a drop and curve ball that rivalled anything in the major league. If he can throw that when- ever he chooses, it seems that Bres- nahan has the needed pitcher already lined up. Pitcher Annis, who has been purchased by the Cardinals from the Tacoma, (Northwestern League) team, comes |highly touted. He is said to be one of the stars of the Coast. Unfortunately, Annis is not scheduled to report to Manager Bresnahan until the close of the Northwestern League season.

Some jumbled-up playing on an infield fly hurt most. It came in the seventh round. At the start Koney was whacked. Evans followed with & single to right, but Koney only made second.

However Oakes left him there when he rolled to Knabe. A regular Cardinal rally was staged in the eighth when the locals came within one of tying up the tally. Bliss opened with a scratch sinble, but Mclver, swing- ing for Weodburn, forced him. Huggins drew a pass. and after Hauser raised to Paskert, Ellis singled to center. The hit scored McIver, but when Paskert threw the ball to the stand behind third base, Huggins tallied, while Ellis raced to second, Koney followed with a ripping double down the left-fleld line, and Ellis scored the third run. Then—Alexander tixhtened, and with Koney on second, wait- ifig to be driven home with the tying eount, fanned Evans. Harmon pitched six innings, during which the four Quaker tallies were shoved over.

Then Jack McAdams of Dallas went on the job and pitched the last inning. He bianked the visitors. There were me exceilent plays.

A Special Correspondent of the Post- Dispatch, NEW YORK, ‘July 28.—"‘Cyclone’ Jonnny Thompson and Willie Lewis fought 19 rounds at the National last night. Thompson fought all the time. Lewis fought, wrestled and ran alter- nately. Thompson won. As a fight it wasn’t such It didn’t cause any great commotion in the middleweight puddle—or mud- die. It did solve one great mystery that has been worrying us ever since the cable from Australia told how “Middleweight” Johnny Thompson had defeated Billy Papke. Now we know why Thompson is na longer a light- weight, and Why he ts a middleweight. “Can you tell me, Mr. Bones, why ‘Cy- clone’ Johnny Thompson is a middle- weight?’’ “That’s an easy one, Mr. Jones. Don’t you know why ‘Cyclone’ Johnny Thompson is a middleweight?” “Why, no, Mr. Bones. Why IS he a middleweight?” “Because, Mr. Jones, he carries much weight around his middle.” He’s Almost Spherical. Yes, Cyclone Thompson ’is fat. The fact was undeniably evident the mo- ment he climbed into the ring and wad- dled to his corner. He has a “cor- poration.”’ Like the earth, he has his greatest circumference at the equator. He wore loose, long white running pants to comceal the tubby effect. But for all that Thompson is very much a fighter. When the two came together Lewis looked much tailer than Johnny. Lewis was thin and muscular and apparently in the very pink of condition. He was a well trained athlete. It didn’t seem possible that fat, roly-poly. little Thomp- som could have a chance with him. And then the fight started. At once Thompson went at Willie with a--rush. He was too heavy to dance lightly on his toes, but he’ moved with sur- prising speed. The moment he came to close quarters he began hit- ting. Lewis tried to jab him away. Thompson pushed the jab aside with his face and slammed two of three over on the Gas House Pride before Willie could clinch and hold tight. From that time on there was little variety. It was all the same way from start finish, a fat, soft-looking fel- low chasing a_ clean-cut, muscular fignter from one corner to. another without letting up a single second and outfighting him whenever he ran him He didn’t show anything that would give him a right to be classed with Fitzsim- mons, Tommy Ryan, Kid McCoy. Stanley Ketchel, Tommy West or any of the great middleweights of the past. Any such com. parison would be funny. As for Willie Lewis—better fight Sailor Burke, Willie, He'll stand off and “swap” with you, a much. sO To . 7 Cubs’ Owner Trying to Get Gilhooley Away From Roger Murphy Pleads’ His Option En- titles Him to Michigan Boy Wonder. —“Jutiielder the Julv 2&8. Adrian club of ADRIAN Mich.. Frarkie Gilhooley of the Scuthern Michigan Teague, recently sold to Bresnahan's St. Louts Nationals for $1500 cash, is the real ‘‘phenom'’ produced by the league this season. Although but 19 years of age, Gilhooley leads the league in batting at present with an official average up to,July 1 of .3862, and is third in stolen bases, with 33 pilfered sacks to his credit. He has 125 base hits and his fielding average is .97.3. Gilhooley has been in professional ball but a short time. In the spring of 1910 he was taken South with the Toledo (American sociation) team, being farmed to the Sagi- naw club of the Southern Michigan League on the Mud Hens’ return to the North, Not being in the best of condition, he was later and for the balance of the season As- released, played independent ball. Gilhooley has since made himself remarkable player, 80 remarkable Charles Murphy of the Chicago Cubs : ae ern League team were falling head over heels to get him. Murphy, in fact, had an option on Gilhooley. From Toledo, Like Roger. Presnahan and Gilhooley are both Toledo men. Murphy threatens to take his case to the National Commission, claiming that into a that and East- an option was granted him; but fhe title is clear and the Cardinais need have no fear that the lad will be awarded to anyone else. Gilhooley is a left-handed batter, but threws right-handed. He stands 5 feet §& inches tall and tips the scale at 154 pounds. His winter work is keeping books in one of the Toledo offices.

Charles Bartley, secretary of the league sent out letters to all of the clubs notifying them that if they played a man who had been signed after July 1 who had previously played even one game of ball this season with a club under National protection, they were not only Hable to lose the game on a forfeit but be fined as well. All of these men named have played professional ball in different leagues about the country and were not signed up by July 1, with the exception of Flach, who afterwards played a game with the Burlington (Io.) team, which disqualifies him, also. The managers of the four clubs declar- ed that they did not understand the rule and they thought it meant that they could sign any player, even after July 1, providing that he was not play- ing professional ball after that date. JIM DELEHANTY HAS THE PITCHERS’ “GOATS” Jim Delehanty, not even barring Ty Cobb, is the most idolized of the De- troit players by the home fans. He is playing great ball for Jennings and his hitting is second to none on the team when it comes to making hits at the right time. Opposing pitchers who fig- ure that Crawford is too dangerous and walk him to get Delehanty up find they have made a serious mistake, for when it comes to getting hits with men on the bases Del is in a class by him- self. If the Tigers win the flag this year Delehanty will deserve as much credit for the victory as any man on the team. BOO TN ) LITHOLI : VERY t is in their favor.

The Mound City crew had to be changed at almost the last. minute, id Schlueter being unable to make the trip, Paule taking his place. Paule is practically a newcomer at the rowing game, and it is a matter of ,conjecture as to how he will stand the strain of a national championship.

=> HENMOD PLANS APPEAL FROM LIFE Slayer of S. Louis Von Phul Bit- terly Arraigns Judge Who Tried Him. .

DENOUNCES RULINGS Declares He Was Persecuted and That Trial Was Made Pre- liminary Divorce Hearing.

DENVER, Colo., July 2#—Frank H. Henwood, under sentence of life impris- onment for the murder of George DBD. Copeland, will appeal to the Supreme Court, his attorneys declare. he was sentenced late yester- day, the slayer of the St. Louis aeronant, 8. Louis von Pnul, denounced the Judge with a vehemence never before exhib- ited in a Denver court, When asked what he had to say “Why sentence should not be pronounced,’”’ Henwood walked to the bench and be- gan by saying: : “I come for sentence, but not for jus- tice, from a jail where for two months I have been surrounded by prisoners, whose faces become bianched and who tremble with fear when they contem- plate coming to this court for trial so long as Judge Whitford sits in this di- vision.” Henwood characterized his treatment by the court and prosecutor as “perse- cution”® and declared that his attorney had been ‘“‘bound and gagged by rulings of the court,” and that his trial for the killing of George E. Copeland had in reality, been turned into a preliminary hearing of the divorce case of John W. Springer. Is Springer’s Friend. Henwood recalled that he had bev. de- nounced by the prosecutor as ‘“‘a destroy- er of Mr. Springer’s home,’’ but main- tained that he was, and is today “John W. Springer’s best friend.”’ Henwood charged that the first day Mrs. Springer was on the stand, when it was seen that she possessed. know!l- edge “advantageous to me,” she was excused. Later, when she was re- called, ‘‘a package of letters written by her to S.

I be- lieve that you shot von Phul because of jealousy over Mrs, Springer. But for some reason the jurors returned a finding of second-degree murder.

NEW YORK, July 28.—Paul Geidel, a Dellboy in the Hotel Iroquois, 49 West Forty-fourth street until last Friday, Was arrested early this morning charged with the murder of William Henry Jack- gon, a broker, whe was found chloro- formed and choked to death in his apartment in the hotel yesterday morn- ing.

MoGrane roomed with Geidel, and both come from Hartford, Conn. Geidel signed a confession a few min- utes before 2 o'clock this morning. Soon afterward McGrane made a confession, in which he told how he had pawned the broker’s watch. He is held as an ac- cessory after the fact. The Kanes are held as witnesses. Boy’s Story of Crime. This substantially is Geidel’s confes- sion: “I planned to rob Mr. Jackson because I thought he had plenty of money. I had observed him closely while I was @ bellboy in the hotel, and when I was discharged I made up my mind to get 80me money that way. I thought I might have some trouble, so I got a bot- tle of chloroform, which Mrs. Kane had in the bathroom, and I carried this bot- tle in my pocket. At 8:45 Wednesday night I entered the basement of the hotel, and walked up te the tenth floor by the steps around the elevator. I was not observed, but if I had been I figured that I could get Sway, as the other bell boys knew me. “1 knew there was a small window in the bathroom of each of the apart- ments that faced on the steps, and I climbed inte the bathroom of Mr. Jack- gon's apartment through this window. “The lights from his bedrgpm were shining, and when I crouched in the bethroom I could see him through the crack of the door lying on the bed ap- parently listening.

Matthias Mathias Brohammer, a_ prosperous South Side property owner, and his wife, Josephine Brohammer, lived in St. Louis years without seeing Forest Park. Their first view of the big West End playground was gained when they took their first automobile ride a few days ago. They told of their wonderful ex- ploring trip Friday to a Post-Dispatch reporter. Brohammer is 88 years old, and lives at 2115 De Kalb street. He owns Ssev- eral houses in the neighborhood, and tenants, taking their rent to him monthly, have for the last 13 years found him sitting in a rocking chair in his yard, kept by moving about. During those 13 years Brohammer has not been out of the yard, except to at- tend a funeral or a wedding, and his wife, who attends to his wants, has been kept as closely at heme. Their son Louis, who has lately moved to Webster Groves, sent an au- tomobile for them the other day. Mrs, Brohammer was secretly desirous of taking the ride, but it took some persuasion to get the head of the family into the cushioned seat. Through the Park. “TI knew,” he said, “that my was fixed for life, and that when I die I want to die quickly, so I de- cided to go. I climbed into the front seat beside the motorman, where I could.see what he was doing. Well, we went aiong and I never knew St. Louis had such fine streets. Finally we came into Forest Park. I had never seen it before. “TI saw some deer, but you never have time to stop and get a good look at anything when you are in one of those automobiles. We went around and around in circles, and I spoke to the motorman and asked him if he would know the way out again. ‘He said he would and I was glad he was there. That fellow told me Forest Park had 1800 acres in it. Finally we got out of the park and he said we were on the Clayton road. I didn't see much after that.

ANNULMENT FOR SECOND

Discovery That the Abandoned Woman Is Alive Comes on the New Honeymoon.

By Leased Wire From the New “York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, July 28.—Haled to court by a woman he supposed had been dead for seven years, Charles B. Hoffman yesterday was divorced by his first wife, Mrs. Dolores Hoffman, while the young girl he married only a month ago sat nearby waiting for her annulment suit to be called. Mrs. Dolores Joffman testified that she married the jaiefendant Oct. 8, 1898. She said they lived in Manhattan for a year, when Hoffman abandoned her. Mrs. Hoffman is a Red Cross nurse and served in the Philippines. Hoffman, who holds the record of being legally separated from two women in 15 minutes, is a gray-haired, slender little man. He was nervous when he took the stand, for he did not know what Justice Crane was going to say about his bigamous marriage. Says Story Is Correct, ‘My wife’s account of our marriage is correct,’’ Hoffman said. “It is also true that I abandoned her. For years I have been in the shipping business, spending much time abroad. In that way I lost track of my wife. When I returned to this country, some seven years ago, I tried to find her, authorizing my broth- er, a California lawyer, to conduct the search. It developed nothing and I sup- posed she was dead.” Only recently, Hoffman continued, he met the girl who later became his second wife. She was Miss Grace I. Gillett of Brooklyn. The two were married at Stamford, Conn., June 21. The second Mrs, Hoffman was a wit- ness in her own suit to annul her marriage. Supposed Wife Was Dead. “When I married the defendant,” Miss Gillett said, “I supposed his first wife was dead. Our happiness was short-lived, for we had been married only nine days when I recelved a let- ter from my brother stating that he had discovered my husband's first wife. We were in Canada on our honeymoon at the time.’ “TI will grant a decree in each case.” Justice Crane said, “and the defend- ant need have no apprehension that [ will hold him for bigamy, for since his second marriage occurred in Con- necticut I have no jurisdiction.” Hoffman ang Miss Gillett left the courthouse together. BOARDERS ROBBED WHILE AT WORK Whole House Ransacked and Man and Woman Are Missing. When the boarders at 2900 Washineg- ton avenue returned home Thursday evening they found their rooms had been ransacked and their valuables stolen. There was no dinner and the housekeeper and her husband weére miss-

ing. In a body the boarders flocked to the home of Mrs. M. A. Alexander at 2928 Washington avenue. She is owner of the boarding house at 2900 and they told her their troubles. The police were summoned. It was found that the locks on the doors of several of the rooms had been broken while other rooms had been entered with a skeleton key. A “jimmy” was found outside the room of Miss Lucille Wood- ward. Clothing and jewelry had been stolen from her room. While the police: were investigating the boarders recalled that the house- keeper had asked them for an advance payment of their rent Thursday morn- ing and had collected something like $26. Mrs. Alexander told the police she en- gaged the young woman about five weeks ago.

Robber Forces Way Through Screened Window and Steals Purse With $15.60.

John Krump went to the home of Mrs. Adeline Blank at 3521 Ohio avenue Fri- day morning to deliver ice. He knocked on the door, but there was no answer. Then he kicked on the door. After a few minutes the door swung Blank fell to the kitchen floor in a faint. When she was re- vived she said she and her baby and her pet dog had been chloroformed by a byrglar. A rear window had 0»been forced and the screen removed and there were other evidences that the house had been ransacked and robbed. A small piece of cotton was found on the bed where Mrs. Blank and her 2 year-old daughter, Dorothy, had slept. Blank came home from his work @ short time after Mrs. Blank was awak- ened. She told him that some time in the night she felt a hand being passed over her face but was unable to scream, Dr. Emma W. Howe of 2610 Russell avenue said that Mrs. Blank had been chloroformed. The baby and the dog had regained consciousness, but were still drowsy. Mrs. Blank savs she retired at 8 p. m. Thursday. Her husband, an express messenger on the Cotton Belt, had gone on his run. All of the doors were locked and the screens in place when Mrs. Elank went to bed, she says. The dog usually barks if even a slight noise is made about the house et night. Neighbors in the flat upstairs say they did not hear the dog bark and they be- lieve that the burglar first chloroforme4d the dog and then the sleeping woman and baby. Mrs. Blank said that when she heard the iceman kicking at the door she awoke, but that she collapsed three tunes while going trom the bedroom to the kitchen.

As it reaches the whole country, the people of Illinois owe themselves and the country the only explana- tion it is now worth while to give. It must be éxplanation in determined and decisive action of their own power to make honésty count against the systematized frauds through which the State has been controlled against them. Every intelligent citizen of Illinois knows that the State is ring-ridden and that the worst which has developed out of the exposure of corrupt methods in the Lorimer case is only an incident of systematic ring rule. The worst in the strug- , gle for the senatorship makes Lorimer the vic- tim as well as the beneficiary of corruption so systematized that there was left no hope of ex- ception to its rule of “putting over” candidates for all important offices. The price of success for everyone who hopes for office is made tacit complicity in the organization of plundering rings, which antagonize each other often, while they antagonize public decency and popular gov- ernment always. In Chicago now they are worse than in New York under Tweed. It is not necessary to go beyond Chicago to find the same organized cor- ruption in Peoria or any pther Illinois city, since there is enough of it in Chicago alone to explain the situation as it extends throughout Illinois and from Illinois to Washington. Under similar conditions in New York, in New Jersey, in California and even in Ohio and Penn- sylvania, it has been proved that the strength of professional scoundrelism, no matter how it sys- tematizes itself, is wholly incapable of supporting itself against determined popular action. Ring- ruled and ring-ridden as they are, the people of Illinois can control their own politics as they please. They can do it when they please. They can begin this year. They can assert their right to self-government and they can enforce it. + «+ ae ee Moreover, it begins to look as if the President would have to defend the indefensible wool sched-

tative information about the Controller Bay con- troversy. His explanatory message to the Senate is frank. He makes no effort to avoid responsi- bility for what he has done and he at once dis- arms criticism that has any disposition to be generous. No one can read his message without being impressed by the fact that much of the Alaskan disturbance is founded on rumor and made the more credible by constant, and some- times malicious, reference to the land hunger of predatory syndicates in search of monopoly. Such syndicates are, of course, a painful reality. So jealous are we of monopoly in the prospect that we cry out against it even more loudly than against it in the reality. If we cannot see it we fear it the more. The bugbear in Alaska is the danger of monopoly and that danger, Mr. Pinchot says, begins the instant any of the lands pass into private hands. Mr. Taft makes it plain why we can’t see the exact situation in Alaska. It required all the fa- cilities at his command to get the information he embodied in the message. This information was scattered sadly about. Without detailing the in- terests of each we find that the War, Navy, Treasury, Agriculture, Interior and Commerce and Labor departments were all involved in some way in the Controller Bay business, besides the Bureau of Forestry, the Land Office, the Coast Survey, the Geological] Survey and the Army Engineers. From all these sources Mr. Taft got the infor- mation which he pieced together to make the facts related in the message. Those facts we must accept and conclude (1) that there was no “Dick- to-Dick” postscript, (2) that the President’s brother, Charles P. Taft, never heard of Controller Bay or Richard S. Ryan, (3) that the law was not violated, (4) that no monopoly was conferred, (5) that such rights as were granted to the Con- troller Railway & Navigation Co. were under proper restrictions, (6) that the Chugach Forest Reserve was not harmed or the principle of con- servation impaired. Mr. Pinchot, for himself and as president of the National Conservation Association, raises a new issue entirely in his statement in regard to the message. He Says: It was the President’s duty to hold the terminal lands around Controller Bay in Government ownership.. As with the coal lands, the title to the harbor lands which are the key to the coal lands, should have been held in any event, until Congress could act.’ President Taft says: The thing which Alaska needs its develop- ment, and where rights and franchises can be properly granted to encourage invest- ment and construction of railroads without conferring exclusive privileges, I believe it to be in accordance with good policy to grant th 4 These widtly variant propositions make up the conservation question which is destined to re- main a question until Congress has taken action. It is an issue which has nothing whatever to do with transactions under the present law, or with such steps as the responsible officers of the Gov- ernment may take to protect the people against the aggressions of monopoly operating according to law. It can, of course, in no aspect have anything to do with attempts to grab, cheat or evade the law. So far as is known all such at- tempts have been defeated and the clear implica- tion of Mr. Taft’s message is that he will exercise every power he has to see that they are defeated in the future. a + + — a

Rosie Lapetina, a 16-year-old girl, testified in the Kansas City Criminal Court that last Sat- urday she worked 11 hours and 20 minutes in the store of the Fred Wolfman Co. Fred W. Patrick, manager of the store, pleaded guilty and was fined. | President Taft has at least given us authori-|°f millions of consumers. Fe It is a plain, practical question that the House and Senate must answer. Shall privilege be con- firmed in the possession of the taxing power of the Government for its own enrichment, or have the people the right, in obedience to their mandate at the polls, to expect relief from organized greed that fattens upon their necessities? To this question Mr. Taft is reported to have given an affirmative answer by promising a veto. To the long list of statesmen who have com- mitted political suicide is to be added the name of William Howard Taft. -_= = * ~~

I want to thank you for your editorial on the dangerous Chouteau avenue crossing. It is an outrage that such a crossing should be permit- ted, and the position you have takeh will be in- dorsed by thousands of suburbanites who twice daily place their lives in jeopardy by riding in Overcrowded street cars over this crossing. For- merly the street cars were brought to a stop be- fore passing the railroad, but of late not ‘even this precaution is taken, particularly if the car is a little late the motorman “takes a chance” and a hundred passengers hold their breath while the dash is being made. There isn’t a per- 80n compelled to ride in these cars but dreads the approach to this crossing. There is certain to be a terrible accident there some day.

Grapes are sour and fish are diseased. MISSOURI. Harvester Machinery. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch, Some days ago you printed a large article un- der the headline attacking “Perkins’ Harvester Trust.” Now, whoever wrote that article is painfully ignorant. If the Milwaukee machine was the best their Sales didn’t show it. You say the Minnie Cham- pion, Milwaukee and Plano are dead since the trust was formed. Now I come from a family of machine men, and my grandfather invented a g00d portion of the Walter A. Wood grain bind- er, which is the Minnie, and I want to tell you that they failed long before the International Harvester Co. was thought of. The Milwaukee, Champion and Plano machines are not only made today, but thousands of dollars are spent yearly by the International Harvester Co. to improve these machines, and there are more sold no® than ever in the history ‘of the old companies, Binders used to sell for $225 and didn’t give sat- isfaction, either; now you buy a perfect machine for from $110 to $120. The Milwaukee machine that you say they have ceased to make is now made at the McCormick works in Chicago, I also would like you to know that the Interna- tional Harvester Co. can furnish repairs for the first and all of the machines built by the old companies before the combination, All the old molds and patterns are kept, and when the supply of any old repair part runs out there are more made. r The branch houses in the different cities can furnish repairs for machines’ that have been ob- solete for 20 years, and the factory can supply the parts for the first machine ever built. Do you Know that the farmer buys his harvesting machinery on easier terms and at a fairer price than anything else he uses. If you think the International Harvester Co. controls 90 per cent of the trade in farming im- plements, just look over the Implement Dealers’ Blue Book or any farm journal and you will readily see there are a few others engaged in the manufacture of farm implements. There are hundreds of dealers throughout the country handling goods made by independent companies along with the International Harvester ('o, lef

This should be the first of a string of such pools, scattered along the river wards at convenient distances. This would give plenty The House Democrats began the work of tariff revision this session by reducing the rates which Mr. Taft has assailed as “indefensible.” With changes of their own, the Democrats and the Republican insurgents have united for the same purpose.

Solomon Knew eee kinsmen.” ccustomed as are we of the Sou to trace out the ties of family throne all its ramifications, I was astonished at this recognition of cousinship through so remote an ancestor, espe- cially as I knew the Japanese hold mene | to the male line. But if the princely House of Owari was inclined to receive me ag a member of the clan and family, it was not for me to repudiate the connection. One of the screens of the side wall slipped open, and there entered a slender little old lady in dove-colored silk, She was the first aged woman I had yet seen in Japan whose fea- tures retained a share of youthful beauty. Her face was as exquisitely refined and almost as fair as that of the Shogun’s daughter, while her teeth, owing either to greater skill in the application or to better dye, were of a glossy black not altogethe unpleasing even to my Occiden ae etn , oftly as a thistledo sh across the mats and me ° Tne FRIDAY, JULY 28, 191. t It is an aroid which yields the pol Yoritomo, her gn ey secret search for you _ throughout] that went far six dignified samurai counsellors, The ¢ *. . : me ¢ + _— alti ; . ee rf * ahi Aw day of reforms, a woman is behind the times who is not engaged in some great work of reform.”’ But possibly the greatest reform we each may accomplish is our own mental development, and if we are learning there is dignity in manual labor we bave already leafned there is majesty in intellectual attainment. “Solomon’s woman thought ef her health in leaving her distaff to work out of doors,”” Mrs. Clark announces. “Until the modern woman gets to put- ting strength before good looks and style she will not amount to much. The woman of today is in the hands of syndicates of merchants, who are ex- ploiting her, making her buy yards and yards of cloth, if not for the hobble skirt, then for other things.” From the opening sentence of this paragraph we glean that the men of Solomon's time preferred the woman who worked with her hands. Today just as good in the long run as the beautiful.’’ AYBE the plain woman is, as Solo- mon found, “just as good in the long run,’’ but modern marriage is a short run; little more than a step, as one might say, from the altar to Reno. “But in every woman,” concludes Mrs. Clark, ‘“‘there lurks the desire to be something besides the good housekeep- er or seamstress, and Solomon’s woman had that something more than earthly, something seraphic and angelic, an- other evidence that she was like the modern woman.” From which we .may gather thdt even Solomon had his own troubles, for a combination of the ‘“‘seraphic and an- gelic’’ sounds like a mighty difficult per- son to have sitting at the opposite side of the breakfast table when all you want is someone human enough to pass

I say ‘“‘ladder,’’ since she is gradually climbing, and I think she will reach the top through the very force of that creed.

I be- lieve that SOMEBODY else can fill my job, but that I can do it BETTER. I believe that a hard job ON HAND is worth two easy ones in the PROMISE. I believe in doing what I have to do TODAY to save trouble; and TOMOR- ROW I believe it for the same reason. ‘I believe that honesty is the best policy just becaUse it begets in you the same thing. I believe that a soft answer turneth away a grouchy boss and that a kind word DOESN'T COST A CENT. I believe that ANY woman who wants work gete it, and that for me there is always something in the world. I am ready ta do my part—RIGHT NOW.” To sum it all up, this woman believes in HERSELF.

CHAPTER XII. Escort to the Princess. GUST whirled the smoke of tha shot into my face. As I paused with half-raised pis- tol, waiting for the puff to sweep aside, I hgard the samurai lady calling cheerfully to her mistress, “My Princess! august lady! Fear nothing. The ronins have fled! But the Princess had turned to the window on my side, and, heedless of the rain, was peering out at me through the parted bamboo curtain with even more awe and wonder in her dusky eyes than when she saw me in the temple. : My features, flushed and distorted as they were from the rage of battle and bloodshed, and fully exposed to view by the loss of my hat, must have appeared. to her both outre and terrifying. With the passing of the last show- er, a burst of golden light from the low western sun flooded over the roof of the vashiki on our left. At the same moment I heard the sound of rushing iron-shod feet. As I flung up my downbent head the sun rays glittered on the wet silks and bared steel of a band of samurais that came charging out of the street on the right. “Keiki!” cried Yoritomo, and clap- ping his hat upon my head, he darted forward to thrust a roll of writing through the window of the norimon, into the lap of the Princess. With my second revolver held loose under the edge of my robe, | sprang after him to the side of the norimon, as the Mito men swarmed out and closed about the crippled The first glance had shown them the failure of their diabolical plot. Ut- terly disconcerted and bewildered by the defeat of the ronins, they ran about like wolves that have overshot the trail of their quarry. The two wounded hatamotos sought to wave them aside, but so many blocked the way that our party was forced to halt, In the midst of their flurry and confusion, a norimon came swaying around the corner of the side street at a most unlordly speed, Before it the excited samurais parted their ranks, and the bearers trotted across

The bearers of the black norimon set down their burden, and the near- est samurais sprang to remove the top. The siik-clad aristocrat who arose from the depths of the box-like palanquin was younger and even handsomer than Yoritomo, but his eyes, between their excessively nar- row lids, had a shiftiness that re- minded me of the treacherous Malays. Yoritomo bowed low to him in mock politeness. “Ten thousand years to the heir of Hitotsubashi!” he said. “Had Keiki Same come sooner, he might have aided the progress of. the Shogun’s daughter, instead: of blocking the passage of the august lady.” The younger samurai ladv, who had knelt beside the norimon of the Prin- cess, whispered across to the older lady. She in turn bowed and whis- pered to Yuki. Though tottering from his wounds, the hatamoto captain Straightened and replied to Keiki in a tone of haughty command: “Stand aside with your men, lord. The daugh- ter of the Tycoon is satisfied with the escort of the two priest-vlad champions who, single-handed, de- stroyed the evil ronins.” As we advanced through the crowd of curious onlookers, [I glanced about at the baffled Mito men, who were attempting to “save the face” of their lord by forming about his norimon in the usual stately cortege. Chancing to catch the eager gaze of the samwyrai girl, I smiled and nod- ded. Encouraged by my condescen- sion to venture a like breach of eti- quette, she bowed low, and murmured with a goft laugh: “August lord! par- don the rudeness of Setsu!” “O Setsu San is free to speak,” 1 said. “Ten thousand years of happy life to my lord!” she murmured. “Again pardon the inexcusable rudeness— but the awesome face of my lord has been seen by august eyes. Should re- port be made that my lord is to be numbered among the kami?—or is he a tojin sama?” “A daimio of the tojin, come to aid Dai Nippon with Sword and counsel,” Il answered She bowed low, with a gentle in- sucking of breath, and fell silent. But as I sauntered along beside the siow- ly moving norimon, I caught glimpses of a pair of soft black eyes peering at me through the fringe of the win- dow curtain. There could be no doubt that the Shogun’s daughter was Studying such of my face as showed below the hat brim. The thought that she might be seeking to accustom herself to the “demon” eyes of the tojin set me aglew with blissful an-

But my amorous fancies quickly gave place to hot shame at the remembrance that the gentle lit- tle princess was the betrothed of m}) friend. A venerable samurai wearing the circled cross of Satsuma saluted Yori- tomo and pointed. westward to the gate of one of the nearer yashikis. “Shimadzu Satsuma-no-kaml sends | greeting to Yoritomo Sama, the he- roic son of Owari dono, and to his heroic companion!” he _ said. “will they honor the house of Shimadzu by entering and refreshing themselves: “Return our greetings and thanks to the Daimio of Satsuma,” replied Yoritomo. “We hope soon to visit Shimadzu Sama, but now we have come from a long journey, and must hasten to salute my father.’ [ “The son of Owari is wounded, suggested the samural. ‘A wound received in a good cause bears no sting,’ replied my _ friend with a Confucian sententiousness that drew an appreciative murmur from the crowd. He waved aside the old samurai with a courteous geS- ture, and crossed to me. “Come, broth- er, we must be on our way, The sun is low, and we have no lanterns.” The samurai again hastened around before him and bent low. “Fearing that Yoritomo Sama might be unable to linger for a call, ms lord took the liberty to send nori- mons for the conveyance of the son of Owari dono and his companion. “The gracious offer of Shimadzu, the Daimio of Satsuma, is. accepted with grateful thanks,” responded Yoritomo, At a sign from the ramares, two red-lacquered norimons were orne forward through the crowd, and their doors opened for us to enter. Calling to mind Yoritomo’s Iinstruc- tions I slipped off my sandals and squeezed into one of the narrow boxes. Once inside, I crouched down on knees and heels in quite the cor- rect manner, though I caught a murmur of politely smothered sur- prise at my failure to remove my hat. A half-minute later our palanquins were swinging westward along the walled edge of the moat, an escort of Satsuma samurais in van and rear, and the old leader in attendance be- side Yoritomo’s norimon, The Prince of Owart. & arrived at the main en- . trance to the largest of the yashikis belonging to the: Prince of Owarl., While our pearers carried us across the stone bridge of the moat ditch into the lighted space before the huge copper-faced gates, the old Samurai leader announced us to the warden or captain of the gate. Al- most instantly the ponderous leaves of the gate Swung open before us, and a dozen Owari samurais hastened out to open the norimons and salute their occupants. An elderly chamberlain in richest costume appeared from within and kowtowed before us. Mindful of my lessons in eitquette, 1 drew out my sheathed sword and handed it to the official as he rose, He took the price- less weapon reverently and raised it to his forehead before giving it into the. keeping 6f one of the pages. Yoritomo handed his own sword toa second page, and addressed the cham- berlain curtly: “Let my august father be informed of our arrival, Fuji- maro.’’ - “By what name shall I announce my lord's companion?” asked the chamberlain. ; “Announce my friend as one en- titled to sit at the left hand of the Prince of Owari.” Two or three turns brought us to the brightl illuminated dressing- room of a bath. As we entered sevy- eral ‘attendants saluted and began waiting on us, rising from their knees only when necessary. When my hat was removed, one man gave a gasp of amazement. Otherwise all pre- served their bland smiles throughout my disrobing, too well trained to ven- ture any comments upon my “snow white” skin. But etiquette did not prevent them from uttering soft exclamations of grief and pity when the removal of Yoritomo's dress disclosed a deep cut across his shoulder blade. Though no longer bleeding, the wound gaped open to the bone. Yet with Spartan fortitude Yorimeto silenced their cries and ordered them to oceed with me. When, in turn, he had re- ceived his cold rub and hot immer- berlain to bind up the wound with moistened strips of the tough Japa- nese paper. Fujimaro appeared to conduct us into the presence of the Prince. The chamberiains kowtowed at the threshold and crept forward on

Tomorrow the death of your brother will be announced.” To give way to grief in the pres- ence of a superior is a most serious breach of Japanese etiquette. The graver the grief or pain, the more pronounced the smile of the sufferer. Yoritomo uttered a soft laugh, and immediately turned the conversation to a less painful subject. ‘My lord,” he said, “I have told how Woroto Sama received me ¢ »)oard the black ship, and how he p ed him- less deep and overpowering was Yori- tomo’s joy at sight of his mother: his tears flowed quite as freely.

Years of experience have enabled Mr. Fletcher to make Castoria a practl- cally perfect preparation. These years of labor: the amount of money required to introduce its merits to the public: the investment in its manufacture, including the most modern machinery, mean a vast amount of invested capital. It follows that the greatest care is exercised in the selection of each ingredient, and the d to every detailof its preparation. The result: The practically perfect preparation in the finished product; Fletcher's Castoria. Herein lies the guarantee of the absolute safety in the use of Fletcher's Castoria for the baby, and the warning against irresponsible makers of imitations and counterfeits. The signature of Chas.H. Fletcher that is printed in black on the wrapper and red on the bottle is the mother’s safeguard. > ak Children Cry For - sonal supervision since its A ' Allow no one to deceive in All Counterfeits, Imitations and *¢ Jusbasgeok are Eniante and Chitieen: dena ae : Infants and What is CASTOR Castoria is a harmless substitute for Castor G4 goric, Drops and -asan ae r ss oie.

EMPLOYER A SLEUTH ARRESTS DRNER Loads Man Into Buggy After Fight and Turns Him Over to Police.

The frequent disappearance of ar- ticles from the wagon of Clarence Bailey of 1131 Morrison avenue, driver for the Columbia Transfer Co., caused Patrick Kelleher, the superintendent, to keep a watch on him. Several months ago Kelleher says he c@ught Bailey stealing, but gave him another chance for the sake or his wife and babies, Friday morning Bailey went to get a load of merchandise from the Frisco freight depot at Sixth and Cerre streets. Kelleher, in a buggy, fol- lowed him, and from a hiding place watched him load his wagon. Before driving away from the depot Bailey pried open a large shipping cage, removed a pair of men’s shoes ftom a box and then nailed up the case. Kelleher stopped Bailey and started with him in search of a policeman. Bai- ley struck his captor in the face, but Kelleher overcame him after a fight and finally landed Bailey in his buggy. Kelleher drove to central dispensary and after seeing Bailey’s wounds dressed took him to police headquar- ters and turned him over to Detectives McKenna and Ferie. Later he swore to a warrant charging the driver with petit larceny. ; Bailey, who is 32 years old, would make no statement about the alleged theft. He asked the police to sum- mon a friend of his, who, he said, would get him out on bond. ‘The shoes were later found sticking between the arch of the wagon and the canvas covering.

A neighborhood physician to whom the gir] was taken said the imprint of teeth on her arm showed she had bitten her- self, but not hard enough to break the skin. Margaret just giggled.

The court overruled this contention in its decision, but this did not satisfy the company’s lawyers. State Bank Commissioner Swanger arrived in St. Louis Friday, in response to a telegraphic request from E. H. An- gert, one of the attorneys for the Lewis reorganization syndicate. He said he did not know why he had been sum- moned, but that he supposed the re- quest had to do with the affairs of the People’s Savings Trust Co., one of the Lewis concerns.

The wording of Premier Asquith’s speech in the House of Commons, while declaring England will not consent to the conditions presented by the Moroc- can dispute, was such as to cause fa- vorable interpretation by the German press, and increase the hopes of an early passing of the war cloud. The domestic political situation is less favorable towards advancing prices.

Certain bonds are .maturing serially; other issues are reaching their ma- turity, and fresh issues are being made to finance the extensions and developments of subsidiary com- panies. It is noteworthy, however, that the corporation, in spite of the fact that it has expended over $400,- 000,000 for new works since its com- mencement, has only increased its bonded debt, by about $204,000,000, of which $160,000,000 represents pre- was converted The the into bonds, DETAILED REPORT OF DAY'S TRADING IN WALL STREET YORK.
