NEGRO HE SOUGHT GIVES HIMSELF UP Burglar Theory Accepted at; First, Is Doubted When Statements of Voluntary Prisoner As to Wherebouts Cannot Be Verified. Patrolman Cornelius O’Keeffe died at the city hospital at 5:45 a. m., Tues- day, from a bullet wound in his left jung, inflicted seven hours before with his own revolver, it is believed, by a negro whom he encountered in an alley behind a candy store at 1308 Olive street, on another policeman’s beat. Remus Hawshaw, a negro for whom O'Keeffe had been looking just before the fatal shooting, walked into police m. and asked whether he was wanted. He denied knowing anything of the shooting, and was locked up on a charge of assault, the charge on which O‘Keeffe had been seeking to arrest him. At the time Hawshaw surrendered it was believed at Police Headquarters that O'Keeffe had been killed by a burg- lar, whom he had found trying to enter the rear of the candy store. His Story Not Verified. But when Hawshaw’s statement about his whereabouts at the time of the kill- ing was investigated, and was not veri- fied, the belief grew that he might have been O’Keeffe's assailant. pt, Schwartz took the view that eeffey who, had beer inquiring for Hawshaw, met him unexpectedly and seized him, and that Hawshaw seized the policeman’s revolver and shot him with It. Ae against this theory, others cited the extreme unlHkeliness that the negro, had he killed the policeman, would have voluntarily gone to Police Headquarters and given himself up. Hawshaw's first story of his where- abouts Monday night was that he was at the Raw Roosters’ Club, 107 South Tenth street, playing cards until mid- But policemen found Clarence Mitchell and Harry Bailey, who were at the club Monday night, and they said Hawshaw was not there. j Mrs. Mary Hardin, living at 1307 Pine street, across the alley from the scene of the shooting of O*Keeffe, also told policemen that she saw Hawshaw in fhe yard behind Sam Weisman’s tai- yor shop between 8 and 9 p, m., more than an hour after the time when he says he went to the Raw Roosters’ Club. Hawshaw is one of several negroes employed mvre or less regularly -by Welsman, a tailor. He told the police that Weisman told him Tuesday that O'Keeffe had been inquiring for him, and that Weisman advised him to give himself up. anes Just Before Relief. O'Keeffe was shot at 10:55 p. m. Mon- day, five minutes before he was to have gone @ff duty. He reached his relief corner at Fourteenth and Olive streets, five minutes ahead of time, and went to Weisman’s place to ask if Hanshaw had been seen there. A ‘moment after O’Keeffe had started back to Fourteenth street Sam Chouris and his wife, who live over their candy store at 1308 Olive street, heard the erabh of glass: at the rear of their store, and then heard shots They feared to venture from the room, and ic was 1 or 2 minutes later when Chouris ran out and called help. Riack Got Me, He Says. Sergt. Meehan arrived a few minutes later, and found O’Keeffe lying in. the alley. “A black man got me,” was all tue wounded policeman could say. Four panes of glass in the rear of the store were smashed and particles of glass were in O’Keeffe's night stick. Shells in Three Empty Revolve Three empty shells were in O'Keeffe J revolver, The marks of his bullets were found on the wall near the broken win- dow. O'Keeffe was rushed to the city hos- pital, and it was found that the bullet had pierced his left lung an inch above his heart. His coat was powder burned, indicating that the shot was fired at close range. While he lay conscious, but unable to at the hospital, three negroes, | POLICEMAN KILLED BY NEGRO IN ALLEY

LOS ANGELES, Cal.,; Aug. 8.—A hole in the ground caused by the explosion of a bomb will figure in the trial of the McNamara brothers for the alleged Gynamiting of the Los Angeles Times. The hole was dug up at night and boxed

for preservation. On the morning of the destruction of the Times building last Oct. 1, two apparently exploded bombs were found at the residences of Gen. H. G. Otis, owner of the Times, and F. J. Zeehan- delaar, secretary of the Merchants’ and Manufacturers’ Association. A detect- ive was carrying off the bomb, inclosed in a suitcase, from the Otis grounds, when he heard a clock begin ticking, and dropped the grip and ran. The bomb went off, tearing a large hole in the ground between the sidewalk and curbing. The hole remained undisturbed, and a few days ago the attorneys for the de- fense decided” they needed the hole for evidence. Accordingly, four detectives later ser te work at night, and by daybreak had tunneled under the hole, boxed it in and carted it to Attorney Job Harri- man’s office. ISLAND LOVE BIRDS DANCE A CAKE WALK C. A. Corwin, of Field Museum, Tells of Antics of Strange Plumaged Population. By Associated Press. CHICAGO, Aug. 8§.—Charies A. (Cor- win of the Field Museum of Natural History has returned to Chicago from a trip to the Laysan Island in the mid- die. of the Pacific Ocean. “It has been established that. the island is inhabited by at least 8,000,000 birds, the most of them consisting of two species of albatross.” said Corwin. “The island is only two miles long and a mile wide. In the center :is a lagoon of about 200 acres. The rocks that shelve in this lagoon are thickly populated with a species of love bird. “Wie can fully verify the stories that these strange birds have a peculiar dance which resembles the cake-walk. They clap their bills together and wad- fle about with: high-stepping antics, ducking their heads first under one wing, then under the other. All through the dance they whistle and utter weird sounds.” INJURY MAKES MAN LIBERAL WITH TIPS Miner Rewards Every. Person Who Aids Him When He Sprains Ankle.

Payments Made Promptly Till Saturday—-Woman First Tried to Collect Debt.

Desperate because he could not find work in East St. Louis and unable to pay $7.50 room rent, Gus Bequette shot and killed his landlord, Charles C. Dav- is, and then killed himself Tuesday aft- ernoon. Davis died at St. Mary’s Hospital at 1:15 p.m. Bequette was dead when po- licemen reached the Davis boarding house, 26 South Fourth street.

Though he did not find eaipiay ment, he paid his room rent promptly untfl last Saturday. — Mrs. Davis went to Bequette’s room to collect the rent ‘at 12:30 p. m. Tuesday. She found Bequette lying on the floor apparently asleep. She re- turned to the kitchen and told her husband. Davis went to the room. According to Davis’ statement when he was picked up Bequette apparently was asleep when Davis entered the j;room, As Davis approached him Be- quette rolled over and Davis saw that he had a revolver in his right hand. Bequette fired at Davis, who fell wounded. Mrs. Davis Screams and Faints. Mrs. Davis. who was in the kitchen, screamed and fainted. Neighbors called the police. It was found that Bequette’ s first shot entered Davis’ chest and passed within an inch of the heart. Bequette pressed the revolver against his left temple and fired a bullet into his brain. The men, one dead and the other dy- ing, were found five feet apart on the floor of Bequette’s room. At the Davis home nothing ‘was known of Bequette’s previous residence. He was 3 years old and Davis was 70. Mrs. Davis is 65. WIRELESS INCREASES _ CAVALRY EFFICIENCY Light Instrument, Carried by Horse, Sends Messages 25 Miles. WASHINGTON, Aug. 8.—The milt- tary value of the cavalry branch has been enormously increased by _ the adoption of wireless telegraphy, for the first time in this country thor- oughly tried out in the Texas ma- neuvers. The Signal Corps has devised an extremely light and portable wire- less apparatus, easily carried on the back of a horse and capable of being put into operation from any point in the field within a few minutes. It was found that the messages could be reliably received when the cav- alry detachment was anywhere with- in 25 miles of a receiving station, a fact which added greatly to the value of the cavalry in its scouting capac- ity. A light collapsible steel mast, not much larger than a fishing’ rod, served to support the antennae nec- essary to establish communication.

ROME, Aug. 8 —Dr. Petacci, his private physician, and Dr. Marchiafava, .consulting physician at the Vatican, visited Pope Pius today and made a thorough examination. Later they dis- covered the condition of the pontiff as relatively satisfactory. His. Holiness: has suffered a throat affection, recovery from the weakening effects of which was retarded to a cer- tain extent by the recent extreme heat. Yesterday he suddenly exhibited un- expected weakness, necessitating perfec rest. ‘Today’s examination revealed a heart fairly strong and respiration reasonably good, considering the shortness of breath common to persons advanced in years and stout. The pulse was rather intermittent and the temperature slightly above normal. The pontiff was somewhat better this afternoon and the gouty pains were less severe. At noon he took some nourish- ment, though he remained in bed and, on the advice of-his doctors, saw no one except his secretaries and his sisters. The latter have not left the bedside since the fllness became more marked and insist on preparing with their own hands whatever food is ordered for the patient. ; The Pope’s valet was permitted to £0 out for the ‘afternoon and this was taken as an indication of a general feeling of relief at the Vatican.

POLICE FIND STOLEN AUTOS IN RAID ON PRIVATE GARAGE Two $6000 Machines Recovered on Delmar Boulevard and Identified by Owner.

SUSPECTED Police Find Letters Which May Prove That La Pearl Is Mem- ber of Chicago Gang. “FENCE” IS

Two stolen automobiles, recovered from a at 3845 Delmar boule- vard, were claimed Tuesday by thejr owners, while Charles H. La Pearl and his wife, tenants of the Delmar boule- vard house, were identified at police headquarters as criminals with burglary records, One of the attomobiles was that of W. H. Pettus of 4273 Westminster place, who had offered a reward for its return. The other was claimed Tuesday after- noon by Walter Robbins of 5290 Water- man avenue, after Patrolmen Garvey and Hurley had identified it by certain marks as the Cadillac car stolen July 3) from the Grand avenue side of the University Club. The factory number TJates had been removed from both ma- chines. After the La Pearls had been ques- tioned by Chief Allender, Bertillion Superintendent Shea identified Ta Pearl as Pat Purcell, who served time in the workhouse and the Boonville Reform School on burglary charges. The record, he said, also showed that Purcell worked as chauffeur for the Columbia Taxicab Co. as Frank Gris- wold. Shea, from rogues’ gallery records, also identified Mrs. La Pearl as Ma- bel Bunting, arrested a year ago on Newstead avenue with Charles Vance, a burglar. In Mabel Bunting’s room a trunk containing masks and bur- glar tools was found. Joe Laken of 35602 Cass avenue called at the Delmar boulevard house Tuesday morning to see La Pearl, and *““fence’”’ the policeman who wags guarding the place.arrested him. He said La Pearl met’ him on Baston avenue Monday ana promised him a job, and that he had called to see what the job was. He said he did not recognize La Pearl, when’ confronted with him at the sta- tion. In a bureau at the house Tuesday were found 75 letters from chauffeurs, replies to a want ad asking for a chauffeur, Received Tip by Telephone, Pettus reported the loss of\his car, a Packard, last week. . Monday he -re- ceived an anonymous telephone message suggesting that he look in the garage at the Delmar boulevard house for the car. _ Sergt. Borden and two patrolmen, on Pettus’ information, went to the place Monday evening and found that the brick building was locked and barred. By standing on boxes and peering in at an alley window, they saw two automo- biles. They then went into the yard and the patrolmen rapped their clubs on the sidewalk. La Pearl appeared at the second-story window of the house and ordered them to leave. They said they were looking for an automobile, and he insisted that the stable contained only a buggy. ‘IT can’t run an auto,”” he told the policemen derisively. ‘‘All I can drive is a mule team,”’ La Pearl Ig Arrested. The policemen then ordered the garage opened, and kept Ia Pearl under guard while the machines were examined. The factory plates had been removed from the fronts of both, but the tire and engine numbers of the Packard were the same as those on the car lost by Pettus. The owner was sent for, and identified the machine. La Pearl was then told that he was under arrest, and his house was en- tered. Only he and his wife live there, it was found. He is 29 years old, she 21. He said he was a bookkeeper, but that as his wife had recently inher- ited money from an uncle, he had quit work for awhile. He said he had rented the garage to a man named Smith, but was indefinite in his state- ments about that person. Under the mattress the policemen found a pair of goggleq an automo- bile. cap and an auto coat. Mrs.’ La Pearl said she had taken these from a closet and hidden them when the policemen entered the house. Zhe! would not explain this action, or make any other statement. She was aeld. Revolvers in Drawer. Two revolvers were found in the bu- reau, near the window where La Pearl had stood when ordering the policemen te leave the premises. Several linen shirts marked A.

While a number of automobiles have been lost in St. Louis in the past year, the number which has disappeared in Chicago has been much greater, some- / times reaching four and five in a single | cay.

WON'TLET MEN SERVE ON CHAIN: GANG FOR WOMAN Kansas Judge Determined That | She Must Serve Sentence as a Man Would.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. IOLA, Kan.. Aug. 8—Unmoved by the bitter criticism of persons who revolt at the idea of a woman pris- oner working on the streets, Police Judge D. B. -Smeltser, who imposed the maximum penalty on Mrs. Ella Reese yesterday, for an alleged ag- gravated offense against society, and ordered that she be furnished with bloomers so that she could take her place with prisoners on the city “chain gang,” declared this afternoon that he would do his best to enforce his decree. “T know that I will find considerable public sentiment against this sentence,” Judge Smeltzer said, ‘‘but it is just. I do not propose to back up. I believe that public sentiment has too long thrown a protesting cloak around vi- clous women. Mrs. Reese is a strong, healthy woman. She is of mature age. She knows the difference between right and wrong, and when she chose the lat- ter course she willfully violated the law. “Why should she go-to jail serene in the confident knowledge that the se tence of this Court would practically made null by public sentiment and that she would be released to continue her way after a few days of idleness in jail? “T? we want to stamp out Immoral practices we must throw sentiment to the winds and visit upon the law- breakers, male and female, the full penalty. Sympathy for good women is the highest form of manliness, but sympathy for bad women, just as for bad men, only serves to encourage them in the way of the wicked, “The law should establish the same moral standard for women as it does for men and I would like to see the Legislature pass a law making it a felony for women .to lure young men into dens of iniquity. Says Law Is One-Sided. “The law is too one-sided, It ought to be leveled up and then we might hope to see the end of the red light districts.’ , Several men this afternoon ap-| peared before Judge Smeliteer and. ‘asked to be allowed to serve on the 'streét gang in Mrs. Reese's place. Judge Smeltzer refused to consider these offers. '

SHERIFF 1S UP IN MONOPLANE Lie E. E. Lessard Believes Joy Fliers Took Machine From Its East St. Louis Hangar.

E. E. Lessard,, an aviator who has been attempting flights a+ Washington Park, telephoned to Sheriff Mulconriery of East St. Louis Tuesday that some one had stolen his monoplane. So far as has been learned this ts the first time that anyone ever com- plained of ‘the theft of a flying ma- chine. é, Lessard suspects joyfliers. Vhen he last saw the monoplane it was safe in its hangar in the eastern | suburbs of East St. Louis, where am- bitious aviators have been making daily flights for several months. Lessard was proud of his monoplane, which he values at $1500. Sheriff Mulconnery is up in the afr. It ig the first time he ever had ay assignment to look for. a lost aero- plane. Naturally there is but one way to look and his neck is getting stiff. Lessard at first thought ° that the thieves took the. machine apart ana carted it away, but no evidence that this was done can be found in or around the hangar, and the belief that the thief flew away in the machine is growing stronger among the avia- tion experts at Washington Park.

Early in his examination Mr. Perkins was confronted with a copy of minutes of the United States Steel Corpora- tion's Executive Committee, March 4, 1902, in which he proposed a plan to raise $50,000,000 without costing the cor- poration a cent. The record of that meetfig read to Mr. Perkins was that of a plan which the Finance Committee of the corpora- tion had been talking over and was go- ing to submit that day to the Board of Directors. Mr, Perkins explained to the Execu- tive Committee that when the separate companies of the corporation were brought together there were many contracts that had recently been made for extensions and improvements, ag- gregating something over $40,000;000. The corporation had-.reduced them something like $20,000,000, being forced to carry the contracts along. In addition he told the Executive Com- mittee that the purchase of the Rocke- ' feller ofl properties held caused the cor- poration to give Mr. Rockefeller notes maturing that year amounting to about $10,000,000, leaving in all about $30,000,- 000 that was not capitalized and that “We have beén somewhat bothered to know just what to do with.” Pian to Retire Preferred Stock. “It wam not fair to take it out of- the earnings 6f the several companies, we thought,” Mr. Perkins was. quoted as having said to the Executive Commit- ‘tee, “after they were brought together and we have given the matter a-good deal of thought as to how and what to do with it and not hurt the secur- ities. And it brought about this iden of an attempt to retire part of the preferred stock second mortgage bonds and have erough in doing so, so we could get out an extra amount of bonds to cover these items. “We think we can take up about # per cent of the preferred stock ‘of $200,000,000 which now costs $14,000,000 in dividends at 7 per cent on $200,000,000 and in the place of that issue $250,000,000 of second mortgage 6 per cent bonds. That would call for $12,500,000 and then ‘have $50,000,000 of new money in addi- tion to saving a million and a half a year on interest, $12,500,000, against $.4,- 000,000, So we would get $60,000,000 with- “out costing us anything and save a million and a half a year besides. “There is no question that it would be very desirable from the standpoint of the company if we can retire the preferred stock. When we came to look into that, we concluded the only time ™ to do it was when the preferred stock Was below par, aS it would then be some inducement with people to take the bonds. “Tf they had stock at 95, say, and could turn it into bonds at par, they * might feel that there was someth!ng tm it And further, we can only do it when the preferred stock is held in large blocks so we — ets B eyaiicate | of it. * — + Syndicate In — Mendy. “We began to look about for the jarge preferred stockholders and have been, successful after two of three months work tn getting up a g00d-sigzed syndicate of large stock: holders who,would put up their pre- ferred stock and underwrite for the suceess of the thing, provided the stockholders generally 41d not take it. “The idea of the Finance Commit- tee was that we would make an offer to all of the preferred stockholders and say: ‘Will you change 40 per cent of the preferred stock for these second mortgage bonds? and if they did not do it, then the syndicate would stand ready to do so to q reasonable extent; and if we did not get the entire 40 per cent, say for instance, we only ‘wot 20 per cent, we would igstie 26 per cent of additional bonds for whatever stock we took up. . ‘That is if we took up 20 per cent of the preferred stock or $100,000,000, we would issue $125,000,000 of bonds in place of $250,000,000. Rockefeller to Take Bonds, “We thought it would be a desir- able plan in a good many ways; it would give us $5,000,000 of cash with- out cost; it would wipe out these in- herited improvements and pay the Rockefeller notes. We have made an arrangement with them to take these Bonds in settlement of their obliga- tions, which is @ good thing, of course, and leaves us an additional sum of money that might be used in reorganizing some of the plants and doing things that we want to have done in Chicago, and for the bridge @eompany at Pittsburg, “In this way the money really would ' @arn in two ways: Firat, in the hand-. . iing of the products between the mills, gaving in management in handling the business and increasing the efficiency of the mills so as to give a larger output and make more money in that way. As to how the stockholders will take it, it séems to us, if the preferred stock was reduced about 40 per cent, the remaining 60 per cent would be more favorable and the preferred stock- holders might look at it in that way. “We havé thought the bonds might be a thirty-year bond and convertible into preferred stock within ten years and re- - @eemable at the convenience of the com- pany after ten years at 110,. - »“Another thing we would accomplish: | 1. we got forty per cent of the pre- ne i oor a sink- ) fitty years we would be of the company for — —D not to be allowed to do t -ot which Mr. Perkins is a direotor and Ni veut nit *.

We figured 40 per cent, because we believe that $250,000,000 of second mortgage bonds would be con- sidered very good; whereas, if we called $£00,000,000 of preferred stock, the uni-) versal criticism would be that the bonds are not better security than the stock, and if you pass the dividends on the preferred stock you would not be in the hands of a receiver and if. you passed the interest on the bonds you would be.

The preferred stockholders are entitled to as fair treatment as can be given them for giving up their 4 per cent of the stock and the common ought not to be allowed to take these bonds. Moreover, the common stock- holders will have benefited by the earn- ing capacity of the $50,000,000 put into icmprovements. ‘Mr. Gary: I think, off hand, it fis a pretty good plan.

Lindabury, counsel for tre Steel Corporation, accompanied him. , . Edgar A. Bancroft. of Chicago, coun- sel for the International Harvester Co. chairman of the finance committee, also was present. Att the outset Mr. Lindabury made a statement saying that he would like to submit the names of scientists who hold that the United States Steel Corpora- tion has no monopoly of the availabie ores in the Birmingham (district. “There has been testimony here that the Steel Corporation controlled from 60 to 75 per cent of the Birmingham re- served ores,” said Mr. Lindabury. “We have information from various scientists who insist that our bodings are not more than 17 per cent, and we wish the committee would hear more of -them.” Will Hear the Scientists, -Chairman Staniey of the committee declared that he regarded the question of ore holdings as one of the ‘most im- portant at issue and that the committee would welcome reliable testimony from any reputable scientist. “My mind is as open on that question as it was when I thought the Bteel Corporation had a monopoly of coking coal of the country,” said the chairman. He added that the committee might take a recess with the adjournnient of Con- gress, but that in such an event the matter, would be thoroughly taken up later.

It was ap- parent that the only thing that would save Mr. Schley from failure on the following Monday was for someone to render him financial assistance. Several acute stages of the panic had caused a trained situation. The national and pri- vate banks, the trust companies, were strained to the utmost. One difficulty with Moore and Schley was that they had a large amount of Tennessee Coal and Iron stock in their loans, some of them call and time loans that were just maturing. “Schley told me that his time loans could not be extended; that when they matured the next week and were not paid, of course the banks would séll the securities on the loans and that to throw Tennessee Coal and Iron on the ‘market would so break the price that all these loans would have to be called by the banks and precipitate a erisis.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 8.—Admiral Count Togo, unfeignedly amazed, stood at the muzzle of a ne wil4-inch gun at the Washington Navy Yard today, the first to be completed of the 24 most pow- erful rifles in the world with which the giant American battleships Texas and New York are to be equipped. The Japanese stuck. his head into the breech of the gun and looked through a glistning barrel of 52% feet, the longest the United States Navy had yet at- tempted. Admiral Togo looked enthusi- astically at the latest product of ord- nance genius. When he put on smoked glasses and watched the oxiacetyline process of welding and casting metals a sight that usually is not shown to visitors, he marveled at the ease with which the workmen toyed with metal. He passed through all the machine shops and foundries and inspected carefully the model basin, used for determining by mathemetics and model hulls the power required for big battleships. , The Admiral complimented Captain and the extensiveness of its equipment. As he left the yard, nineteen’ guns were fired in salute, a Japanese flag geing hoisted on a staff nearby.

Hanecy suggested that Healy “might” have prepared a dozen statements purporting to come from Beckenieyer. Confidence in Browne, ‘That is a gratuitous insult,’’ shouted Attorney Marble. Before Beckmeyer left the stand he explained he voted for Shurtleff, a Re- publican, for speaker, because he wanted to take “a crack at Governor Deneen.” He said. he would have voted for almost any Republican for Senator if Lee O’Neill Browne asked him to do so, because of his confidence in ‘Browne’s judgment. Former State Senator D. W. Holts- law then was called as a witness. He jtold of his alleged conversation with State Senator John Broderick the night before Lorimer was elected. ‘‘He said to me, Senator Lorimer will be elected tomorrow,’’ said Holtslaw.

William Andergon, Superintendent of the Infirmary and the Female Hos- pital, testifying Tuesday at the in- vestigation into hospital conditions, being conducted at the City Hall by a House Investigating Gommittee, said that the chief trouble was the in- ability to keep competent help, on ac- count of the poor salaries paid.

OBEY ; i 00 L. B. Leach to Charge —— Bankers’ Assurance Co. Was ‘Misrepresented. OFFICERS’ HOLDINGS CITED Investors of $124 Deciared to - Have Been in Control of the Concern. Attorneys for Louis B. Leach of Kan- sas prepared a petition for filing Tuesday in a suit in the United States Circuit Court to compe! Harry M. Rubey, president of the American Bank- ers Assurance Co., and A. C. Landon, vice-president, to repay him $4000 which he alleges he paid for stock in: the corporation upon their representations that they had each invested $25,000 in the company. The petition charges that the state- ment that Rubey and Landon had each bought $25,000 worth of the capital stock and surplus of the company was false, and that neither had put such an amount into it. Aceuse Rubey of Negicct. The petition also charges that Rubey, who was formerly president of the Mis- souri Bankers’ Asociation and also chairman of the Democratic State Com- mittee, pledged himself to subscribers to devote his entire time and attention to the company, to,the end that their investments would be profitable. It Is alleged that he devoted” little time to the company, and that its affairs are now in a bad way and its stock of lit- tle value. The suit grows out of facts developed in the receivership proceedings against the American Bankers \Assurance Co. by John B. Christensen, — of its vice- presidents. Attorneys representing Leach discovered what purported to be appli- cations signed by Rubey and Langdon for $25,000 worth of tBtock and surplus fund, amd ft is alleged that facsimile copies of these applications were given to agents to aid them in selling stock. -sCcording to records in Christensen’s possession Rubey and Landon each had invested $1638 in the company. Chris- tensen, also a direcior, and E. A. Pe- ters each had $1638 invested in the com- pany. Christensen’s records, he says, show that eight directors who had the power to control the affairs.of the corpora- tion, had an actual aggregate invest- ment in the company of only $124. His list shows that the following directors each had but 10 shares:of stock at $2 a share: Lon V. Stephens, former ,Governor of Missouri; James . P. Hinton of Hannibal, then president of the Missouri Bankers’ Association; W. B. McCulley of Macon, ‘former Railroad and Warehouse Commis- sioner .and A. Donald Marshai of Dover, Del. Thomas L. Anderson, who represents Rubey’s personal interests in the contro- versy with Christensen and his associ- ates, told a Post-Dispatch reporter that he was not aware whether Rubey had subscribed for the $25,000 worth of stock, as alleged in the Leach suit. He said that Rubey was compelled to give up his werk of organizing the insurdnce com- pany because of the serious sickness of his father and mother, and the later dangerous illness of his wife. The American Bankers’ Assurance Co. filed suit against Christensen on a $500 note Monday. Christensen declares he did not sign the note, but that another director of the company, without au- thority attached his (Christensen’s) name to it.

Mackay-Smith, whence he had been summoned as a consequence of his attack on the coming Astor- Force wedding from the pulpit of his church Sunday, the Reverend Doctor George Chalmers Richmond reiterated it was his purpose to seize on every occasion possible to denounce what he terms “the projected Astor-Forte dis- grace.” ; “My congregation fully approves mv denunciation of the projected Astor- Force disgrace,’ he said. “My Bishop understands me and my views and ap- proves them. I intend to denounce, the Astor bargain again and again, anid to do all I can to make it impossible for that wedding to be solemnized by a clergyman of any faith.” Confers W ith Vestrymen, Dr Richmond made this declaration after a conference with vestrymen of St. John’s Episcopal Church, of which hé is the rector. “This Astor matter has to do with the integrity and vitality of the Episco- pal church. The Astérs, including Joha Jacob Astor, are professed members of our communion. I don’t know any- thing about the Force family. They &p- pear to be merely climbers, dazaled by the Astor milhons. It is impossible, under all the conditions, that an Epis- copal clergyman should marry them.

LANDON IND | RUBEY FOR $4000 L. B. Leach to Charge American Bankers’ Assurance Co. Was ‘Misrepresented.

OFFICERS’ HOLDINGS CITED

Investors of $124 Deciared to Have Been in Control of the Concern.

Attorneys for Louis B. Leach of Kan- sas prepared a petition for filing Tuesday in a suit in the United States Circuit Court to compe! Harry M. Rubey, president of the American Bank- ers Assurance Co., and A: C. Landon, vice-president, to repay him $4000 which he alleges he paid for stock in the corporation upon their representations that they had each invested $25,000 in the company. The petition charges that the state- ment that Rubey and Landon had each bought $25,000 worth of the capital stock and surplus of tlie company was false, and that neither had put such an amount into it. Aeccuse Rubey of Negicct. The petition also charges that Rubey, who was formerly president of the Mis- souri Bankers’ Asociation and also chairman of the Democratic State Com- mittee, pledged himself to subscribers to devote his entire time and attention to the company, to,the end that their investments would be profitable. It Is alleged that he devoted” little time to the company, and that its affairs are now in a bad way and its stock of lit- tle value. The suit grows out of facts developed in the receivership proceedings against the American Bankers \Assurance Co. by John B. Christensen, one of its vice- presidents. Attorneys representing Leach discovered what purported to be appli- cations signed by Rubey and Langdon for $25,000 worth of Btock and surplus fund, amd it is alleged that facsimile copies of these applications were given to agents to aid them in selling stock. -sccording to records in Christensen’s possession Rubey and Landon each had invested $1638 in the company. Chris- tensen, also a direcior, and E. A. Pe- ‘ters each had $1638 invested in the com- pany. Christensen’s records, he says, show that eight directors who had the power to control the affairs.of the corpora- tion, had an actual aggregate invest- ment in the company of only $124. His list shows that the following directors each had but 10 shares: of stock at $2 a share: Lon V. Stephens, former Governor of Missouri; James P. Hinton of Hannibal, then president of the Missouri Bankers’ Association; W..E. McCulley of Macon, ‘former Railroad and Warehouse Commis- sioner .and A. Donald Marshal of Dover, Del. Thomas L. Anderson, who represents Rubey’s personal interests in the contro- versy with Christensen and his associ- ates, told a Post-Dispatch reporter that he was not aware whether Rubey had subscribed for the $25,000 worth of stock, as alleged in the Leach suit. He said that Rubey was compelled to give up his werk of organizing the insurance com- pany because of the serious sickness of his father and mother, and the later dangerous iliness of his wife. The American Bankers’ Assurance Co. filed suit against Christensen on a $500 note Monday. Christensen declares he did not sign the note, but that another director of the company, without au- thority attached his (Christensen's) name to it.

ASTOR WEDDING BACKED BY BISHOP Episcopalian Who Would Pre- vent Marriage in Church So Announces After Conference.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 8.—Five min- utes after he left the sanctum of Bishop A, Mackay-Smith, whence he of his attack on the coming Astor- Force wedding from the pulpit of his church Sunday, the Reverend Doctor George Chalmers Richmond reiterated it was his purpose to seize on every occasion possible to denounce what he terms “the projected Astor-Forte dis- grace.” — | “My congregation fully approves my denunciation of the projected Astor- Force disgrace,”’ he said. ““My Bishop understands me and my views and ap- proves them. I intend to denounce, the Astor bargain again and again, and to do all I can to make it impossible for that clergyman of any faith.”’ Conferg With Vestrymen, Dr Richmond made this declaration after a conference with vestrymen of St. John’s Episcopal Church, of which hé is the rector. “This Astor matter has to do with the integrity and vitality of the Episco- pal church. The Astérs, including Joha Jacob Astor, are professed members of our communion. I don’t know any- thing about the Force family. They &p- pear to be merely climbers, dazzled by the Astor millions. It is impossible, under all the conditions, that an Epis- copal clergyman should marry them. Suchy an gct would be in absolute de- flance of the church laws and the one who performed the ceremony would be promptly unfrocked. “Let me tell you who are responsible for the scandals, divorces and demor- alization of Amerjcan. society—the wom- en of thd: ‘country. They are money mad, clothes mad. They hunger and thirst f the limelight. The home is just a place in which to eat and sleep. They scheme for automobiles, for no- torlety, They dress with such immodes- ty that their limps and bodies are ex- posed fo the gaze of all who yish to look. They lust for wealth and for leaderships in fashionable society. “In all these things they outstrip the women of all other nations. Nowhere else may be found women who frankly sell themselves and their children to the highest bidder. Morgan Against Divorce. “Not only did I intend ts serve notice on all elergymen of the Episcopal Church that they must obey the canon enacted years ago in Richmond, but I also meant to call this marriage to the attention of ministers of ail faiths, so that they, too, might close their church- es-and their houses against this purpose of Astor.”’ CHURCH INSISTS ON ASTOR INQUIRY New York Bishop Says Colonel Must Show He Was Inno- cent in Divorce. NEW YORK, Aug. 8.—‘‘Before Col. astor and Madeline Force,can be mar- ried by an Episcopal clergyman he must convince a council of Episcopal bishops that he was the innocent party in the divorce preceedings that resulted in the annulment of his marriage to his former wife.” rhis statement was given out by Suf- fragan Bishop Charles Burch of the Episcopal Diocese of New York at his summer home ir Bellport, L. I. “The laws of the Episcopal Church are most strict in regard to the remar-

MADELINE FORCE.

Bishop of his diocese or a council of Bishops, demonstrate that the decree of divorce is final, and show that in tne divorce action he or she was the inno- cent party. If this is not done no Epis- copal clergyman will perform the mar- riage ceremony. “The majority of the bishops and min- isters of the Episcopal Church are un- alterably opposed to divorced persons remarrying at au, although the laws of our chur@h do not prohibit absolutely suen marriages.”’ Speaking of the denunciation: of the impending nuptials by the Rev. George Chalmers Richmond in Phil- adelphia on Sunday, Bishop Burch suld: “Tl wondered for a long time who is the one, lone scapegrace who Mr. Richmond said is the only Episcopal clergyman in America or England who would officiate at the marriage of Col. Astor and Miss Force. My own belief is, should Col. Astor receive permission to remarry from/the Epis- copal Council before which he will appear, a respectable minority at least of the 6000 Episcopal clergymen in this country would be willing to marry him.” MINISTERS SAY GO TO A JUSTICE

These gaps in the right of way were left to be acquired by more friendly processes. Several friendly agreements with railroads have already been made and in each there is an implied, although not express, waiver of the right to condemn—a right conferred by Congress on St. Loufs for a particular, not a general pur- pose, and dead once ‘he results sought have been Circulation

Main 3150—Kinloch, Central 3415. — Railroads, even when parties to such agree- — ments or contragts, are still amenable to law and have no legal powers commensurate with those of.a city. The waiver in these cases does no Ir- remediable harm. Potentially it may be an an- noyance and source of delay. It has also a con- tributing weight in forcing the conclusion that St. Louis deliberately intended to substitute agreement for condemnation as the wiser or bet- ter means of getting the right of way. But agreement with East St. Louis, a corpora- tion of powers co-ordinate with those of St. Louis, through the medium of ordinances mutu- ally accepted and approved, is quite a different matter. * In the ordinance passed by East St. Louis, granting a bridge right of way across and over streets and alleys there is a joker. Befora, St. Louis’ itself has adopted a sing!e ordinance pro- viding for the construction of East Side ap- proaches—before grades, track elevations or a single vital engineering problem has been de- termined by the Municipal Assembly of St. Louis, the one power properly chargeable with the duty of fixing and determining such matters, an or- dinance authorizing and directing the Mayor and Comptroller to accept officially the East St. Louis ordinance is offered for passage. Tnis ordinance has already passed’ the St. Louis Council. It is near passage in the House of Delegates. The joker in the East St. Wouis: ordinance, if not placed there by design, is at least concealed with cleverness. It is the provision, for the

The true story of Millstadt, Ill., in the Sunday Post-Dispatch, is more amazing than fiction, be- cause we are compelled to admit that here is a town of 1200 population that, without Socialism, Single ‘Tax, Prohibition or any special ism or ideal, is a model in almost every particular. It has found in Mayor Baltz a leader who seems to have discovered the last thing to be known in city government and each term of whose 16 years of office appears to have increased the prosperity and orderliness of his little city. : Millstadt, being a German-American commun- ity, has 10 saloons, al] of which make money. Yet there is no drunkenness and the town jail is usually empty. No lid is ever pried up, because there is no lid. The “drink evil” is never fought there, because there is no drink evil.. Seven days and seven nights “the demon Rum” Ues in wait for his prey, which only appears when some out- sider, unused to Millstadt’s ways, enters upon the scene. ‘he Millstadters have no personal knowl- edge of such a monster. It is a favorite theory of the Socialists that poverty is the chief cause of excess in drinking, instead of the reverse. Millstadt has practically no poverty and little or no drunkenness. It ap- pears to be an object lesson in support of the theory. Still there is room for suspicion that Milistadt’s peace, happiness and prosperity are largely due to the care Millstadt exercised in se- lecting its population. ;

Monsieur Grisson was shorter, with lighter colored hair, something of a fop in his attire, and certainly more genial in his manner. .

-_HATHEWSON AGAN| FAILS INA DUEL WITH OLD HOODOO It Seems Foolish for “‘Big Six” to Be Sent Against Mordecai Brown of Cubs. NEED DOOIN 7 F Philadelphians, Minus Manager, sSͥeem About Ready to Make Room for Cardinals. QUAKERS ORDECAI BROWN put it over M Christy Mathewson Monday by a 8&6 tally in the opening game of the Cubs-Giants series in Chicago. Some day Manager McGraw is going to see the folly of sending “Big Six” against the three-fingered wonder, and then maybe the Giants will fare bet- ter with their old enemies. Since Brown jumped into prominence with the Cubs after being traded by the Cardinals to the Windy City team, a ‘Brown-Mathewson duel has usually featured every Cubs-Giants mixup. In the several years that these twirlers have been meeting. Brown has earnd a big edge over his huskier rival. Brown has beaten Mathewson with such regularity that it seems that Mc- Graw should get next to himself and keep Big Six out of the games that Brownie twirls. It looks like bad man- agement on McGraw’s part to pit Christy against the three-fingered won- der. -Mordecai is certainly Matty’s Jinx. Dooin Is Missed. The Pirates triumphed over the Qua- kers in the first game of their impor- tant . series. Babe Adams trimmed young Chalmers, 2—1. It was a great duel, a pair of passes by Chalmers pav- ing the way for his defeat. Manager Charley Dooin of the Qua- kers, who had his leg broken while the téam was in St. Louis, is being missed. Since he left the team it has dropped to fourth position, and is now only a game and a half ahead of the Cardinals, and stands a good chance of tumbling into fifth position. John Titus is back in the fray, but Bherwood Magee is needed. Unless the hard-hitting left fielder is soon re- stored to good standing, the pennant hopes of the Quakers will be a thing of the past. Roger Jokes About Blows. It is to be hoped that Manager Bresna- han is not kept out of the game because of the foul tips that struck his foot during the opening game with the Superbas Monday. While the catchers are con- stantly being laid out because of the short, sharp deflections from the bats, Bresna- han's blows will be recalled by the fans who saw the matinee. They came about the fifth inning. Bresnahan wae struck and hopped about for a second or two in pain. He re- sumed his position, and after a few more balls were pitched he was again hit by a foul tip. This time, although tn pain, the manager thought the incident quite funny, and joked with his players about it. Bresnahan has a capable substitute in Jack Bliss, but the fgnsa hope that the Duke will not be kept out of the pastime. His presence alone in the lineup instills more fight and ginger in the players than when.he is missing. Then he is one of the leading hitters of the team. HYDE PARKS WILL BE HERE NEXT SUNDAY The Hyde Parks have decided to play their Trolley League game with the Meberly club Sunday at Kulage’s Park. For a time it was thought that the Car- dinals might play in St. Louis and this season the Trolley League magnates are anything but pleased when they have tc buck the Wreckers. The Naps and Browns will play here Sunday, but the ‘Moberly-Hyde Parks game is expected te draw out a good crowd, Thursday and Friday afternoons the all-profes- sionals, composed of St. Louis players who have played on different minor’ league teams throughout the country

Frank: Sullivan, swimming director at the Misseur!t Athletic Club, is doing everything in his power to induce the M. A.

C., but cannot com- pete for that club, as he is registered as an M. A. C. member. Frizelle is a former Chicago swimmer. He is the fastest short distance man in the country, with the exception of C. M. Daniels, of New York; and Daniels has | announced his intention of quitting the | game. Sullivan has received several letters from the East in which the Missouri A. Cc. is severely criticized for holding a man whom there ig no chance for the club to use. It is said that Frizelle will have to remain an M. A. C. man unti, next April. If the club does not give Frizelle his release, he will not go into the Olympic team trials, and would pperetore miss: the trip to Stockholm. Sullivan will depart for the East after the National championship swim in the Mississippi, a week from Saturday. He will be the coach of the Princeton Uni- versity swimmers next season at a sal- ary almost four times as large as he is receiving at the M. A. C. The M. A.

Collins failed to show up at Thursday's game and President Mc- Gill received a letter from the player saying that he felt he had “got in bad” through his two errors in Wednesg day’s game, and had quit the team. Collins, who was .obtained from the Springfield (O.) club of the Ohio State League by Cleveland last spring, was released to the Chattanooga club, but refused to report there.

LAPORTE POUNDS SIX TIMES NEIGHT TRIES Browns Slugging Second Base- man Drives in Six Runs Against Nationals. WASHINGTON, Aug. 3—Big Frank Laporte was a happy: man last night after he had surrounded a good dinner and taken a seat in the lobby of the ho- tel. All the Browns were coming around shaking hands with him and clapping him on the back over his performance against Groom, Gray and Cashion with his mighty bludgeon. Frank got the only hits registered off Groom in the first game, and in the sec- ond contest hammered out a single, a triple and a home run and another triple that was called a single and an error officially. Quite a showing for a New York castoff. His hitting drove in. six runs in the second game, to say nothing of the tally recorded by his drive to the left field fence. - Bob Groom was happy over his vic- tory as he had commenced to think there is something in. the report that the Browns had his ‘‘goat’’ tied outside the gate every time he worked against them. Yesterday the Belleville (Ill.) lad had everything; and when Bob is good he is like the little girl with the curl. The Lucky Mr. George. ‘Lefty’’ George got a bad start yester- day and Manager Wallace started twice to pull him out. He called for big Jack Powell, but the bricklayer refused to hearken to the call. So George kept on, being very effective with men on the bases. This was George's first appearance in Washington and his work was watched very closely, as he once all but wore a Washington uniform. Today’s batteries will be Powell and Stephens against Tom Hughes and “Gabby” Street. Hughes is in grand fettle just now and a hard contest should result. . * * + “Buck” Recker is now the undisputed property of-the Washington club, Man- ager McAleer and the Youngstown club reached an agreement yesterday. There has been considerable criticism of the infield on the loca) grounds, it be- ing charged that the pitcher’s slab is more than the regulation height over the rest of the infield. The civil engineer who laid out the field has made several tests with his level, and finds that the rise is exactly Ofteen inches, which is what the rules call for. ze 4 These Browns must not be considered easy picking for the Nationals. Wallace's men have played good ball on the present trip. 7 7 ry The series now stands eight to five in favor of the Browns, and McAleer hopes to at, least even matters up: mere, si —* WHAT THE

Simon Kellerman, matchmaker of the Edwardsville Athletic Club, which has been conducting boxing shows on the Steamer Keystone State, is waiting to see the result of the Harry Trendall- Monte Dale six-round bout at the Coll- seum Thursday night, before he an- nounces his card for the next Edwards- ville show, to be held week after next. The Keystone State is at present at Beardstown, Ill, but Kellerman de- clares that the boat will return to East St. Louis the latter part of the week. If Trendall outpoints Dale or even holds him even, Trendall will be matched with Everett Gray of Collinsville, Iil., for a 2%-round fight. Gray is a great drawing card on the East Side and when he enters the ring the boxing fans across the river are assured that they are going to see a battle. Gray Popular Boxer. Trendal] has met Gray before. Harry was able to outpoint Gray, but could not hurt him to any extent. Gray. re- cently went 20 rounds with Leo Kelly on the Keystone State, Kelly gaining the decision. Gray was strong at the finish, but Kelly had a lead on points, Referee Mal Doyle lifting Kelly’s right hand sky- ward for the long end of the purse. Quite a number of East Siders are ex- pected to attend the show Thursday night at the Coliseum. The Mozart So- clety, which will stage the bouts, has received many applications for member- ship. The four bouts on the card will be six-round, no-decision affairs, and promise some of the fastest boxing wit- nessed in St. Louis in a long time. K. O. BROWN DEFEATS FERGUSON ON POINTS BALTIMORE, M4., Aug. 8.—‘‘Knock- out” Brown of New York outpointed Joe Ferguson of Philadelphia at the Washington Sporting Club here last night in a fast ten-round bout. Brown had the better of Ferguson in all the

TAYLOR PUTS A BIG PRICE ON CICOTTE BOSTON, Aug. 8.—The deal whereby Pitcher Eddie Cicotte of the Red Sox was reported to be traded to the Tigers for Pitcher Ralph Works and Infielder Wuffli, is off.

Despite Slump in Hitting, Cardinals Score Enough Runs to Trim — |

— ILL STEELE. after three reverses, rm landed on top in the opening setto with the Superbas of Brooklyn Monday. Bill held the Broklynites to seven hite, and with perect support, the Easterners would have scored but one run. A pair of errors in one round by Smal! Arnold Hauser enabled the enemy to score twice. The count was 4—3. The Cardinals manufactureaé four runs out of six hits. However, the total would have been doubled or tripled if the team was hitting at its normal pace. Nine Cardinals eT on the bags. Young Scharat started the twirling for the Dalhen aggregation. He lasted less than five rounds, during which the Car- dinals scored three of their four runs. Then Dr. James Scanian came on the scene, and with a runner on the bag, allowed another ‘tally to cross, The real feature of the contest was Koney’s steal of home in the fourth in- ning, putting his team in front, $—2. Koney and Evans hed strolled, with none down, and moved up on Smith's sacrifice. Oakes’ effort was a puny pop to Wheat. and*the runners were glued to the bags. Then as Schardt wound up; Koney and Evans started their twin pilfer.. Big Ed slid in safely under Bill Berger with the Cardinals’ third run. It was @ clever piéce of work. Starting the home first Huggins drew a pase and chased all the way to third while Daubert was retiring Elli Bresnahan popped to Tooley, but Koney got:a scratch

single and Huggins scored. swiped second, Evans singled to right and Big Ed tallied. while Steve moved to sec- ond on Coulson’s wide return. With one dead in the Brooklyn third, Tooley doubled to center. Daubert popped a Texas Leaguer in left for a base: Hauser then fumbled Wheat's roller and Tooley counted. Next, Arnold, after taking Huggins’ throw, forcing Wheat,.tried for a double and threw past Koney, Daubert crossing with run 2. Singles by Tooley, Daubert ‘ and Wheat enabled the enemy to tie it up the sec- ond time at 3—~3 in the fifth. With Steele gone in the home fifth, Schardt passed Huggins. He then served two wide balls to Ellis and was chased, Scanion coming in. Huggins swiped sec- ond on the first ball Dr. James pitched, and moved around when Ellis grounded to Daubert. Bresnahan then slammed a single to left. and = Miller crossed with what proved to be the winning run. Manager Bresnahan was chased from the game in the ninth round for protest-. ing Mal Eason’s calling on balis and strikes. Manager Dahlen sent up Starck to bat for Zimmerman in the final session. It seemed that Steele had pitched no less than four strikes, bat Eason made the call two and two. When he balled what looked like a par- ticularly good third strike, a ball, it riled the, mananger, and he told the umpire a few things, Roger was chased to the and finally to the club house. Bliss succeeded him, Starck suresh ook After Koney 7 ——

Probably the highest price ever paid for value recelved on the baseball field was when Robert Lee Hedges gave $3500 for Pat: Newnam. 2 * a BUCKLED DOWN TO WORK. Old war-horse Fred Clarke ‘1. is back in harness again. ‘Fred ao” Sep ag ‘Was very much of a ree squeeze. a * HEAP J MEDICINE, IG CHIEF BENDER certainly de- ~ serves to get the wampum. Chief has’ pitched 38 innings without handing forth a: base on balls. When the Sox scored a solitary tally, Monday, it was the first run opponents had made in 3% innings. Let not your mind rest on the eccen- tricities of Mr. Coombs, when seeking the real strength of the Athletics’ pitch- ing staff. The aborigine has had it on Coombs always, as a pitcher of base- ball, even if Coombs did have a sensa- tional season in 1910. Coombs is erratic—and that spikes any twirler’s claims to real greatness. © € * Evidently’ the owner of this trotting wonder, Soprano, had a weak spot for high-sounding - names. BOTH “ON THETR WAY,” | O, dear. reader, the improved N showing of ‘“‘Rube’’ Waddell is not an indication that the big fellow is coming back; it merely*shows’ how far the American Association is going back. * * * BILL NEBDS AN ARBITRARY. ILL STEELE eased a little balm into the smarting systems of the Cardinal fans by his work on the mound Monday... It is not so much that Wilfam won; the big fellow has done that oft before. It was not that he gave but one base on balls to the Brook- lyn batters. The free transportation problem is more serious to Steele than to a messenger boy—which is SOME important. Once he solves it, William will take his place in the hall of fame with Harmon and Sallee. EXPENSIVE TRANSPORTATION. NCIDENTALLY several games played Monday show what big victories from little “walks” may grow. For example: Pittsburg mae but 8 hits off Chalmers, but the bases on balis the latter gave presented the Pirates with, an unearned victory over the Philies, 2-1. Caldwell, of the Highlandérs, out- pitched Summers and Works in the Tiger-Yankee game, Monday. But in leged purchase of Marty O'Toole.

(i hi il Nees it bitvert? hes

i Ki vett the seventh inning the New York- er gave his only two bases on bal'is, Then Cobb came up—but why con- tinue? In the second game with the Browns, Washington made 13 hits off “Lefty” George; but eight bases on balls by Washington pitchers gave the Brown?” a victory. Kansas~- City, Monday, made but two hits off ‘“‘Rube” Waddell. But the only pass “Rube” handed out was followed by a sacrifice and éne of the safeties; and the answer is: Kansas City 1, Minneapolis 0. Yes sir, this transportation thing is a more serious matter to a pitcher than to a fat man on a 6000 yards golf links. 7 — ONLY SMALL FRY LEFT. HERE are lots of good fish in the sea” may apply as a poul- tice to ‘wounded matrimonial hopes, but it is dubious if careful sein- ing by all the scouts in the big leagues will land any record-breaking baseball catches for use in the “big puddle” this season. The microscopes of the country have been directed to observing in detail] the development of everything that looks like an exception; but rumors of re- markable men have been very few. O’Toole is the only noted instance, and if his recent performance is any cri- terion, he is going to sour Barney Drey- fuss’ sweet opinion of himself. It seems there are no more good fish in the sea: that al) the full-grown, man’s size baseball players have been fished Jout of it, some of them before they were ready. The result is to leave a world of fingerlings in the lesser classes. — — * ARTILLERY TOO LIGHT. F Bob Hedges SHOULD, by any | freak of fortune, have the luck to land a few good hitters—and they are almost as hard to find as pitchers— he may entertain a few hopes of get- ting out of the cyclone cellar next sea- son. For Hedges’ pitchers have done very well for him of late... He can hardly complain of the services of his veterans, Pelty, Lake and Powell, while his younger men are “hopes,’’ at least. It’s the sluggers his club needs, now. se + o CAN YOU BEAT THIS? * ARNEY PELTY’S game shows this. Barney flung them like a cham- pion against the Senators, Mon- day; he let the opposition down with four hits, and yet was beaten. It’s the frony of+ fate that such a game should be wasted, while “Lefty” George gets away with a victory in a contest in which he was hit safely 13 times and gave four bases on balls. Until the men behind the Wallace pitchers can come to their aid, they will heve difficulty in getting out ef the céllar. And it’s up to the dragnet

of Fred Lake to bring in succor.

aT © es: a oe Roger Suffered No Broken Bones, Is _Doctor’s Verdict Cardinals* Leader Found to Be Sound in Ankle, After X-Ray Photo, Dr. Louis P. Butler, who gave Man- eger Roger Bresnahan of the Cardinais a cursory examination last night, to- day, after taking an X-Ray photograph of the foot which the “Duke” injured Monday, stated that there was no bone broken; and that the bruise which caused the pain would heal shortly. Bresnahan had been hit by foul tips on. the foot during the game with Brooklyn Monday, and was unable to walk for a time after the game. He was taken home in an automobile, where a brief examination failed to re- veal any breaks. It was feared a slight fracture might have been suffered. Hence the X-ray. : A week will see Bresnahan tne game. back in

PAPKE BLAMES FOOD FOR POOR SHOWING CHICAGO, Aug. 8.—Willle. Papke,« claimant of the middleweight title, who is now in New York ready to be- gig training for his match with Burke this month, has a theory to ac- count for the suprisingly poor show- ing which some American fighters have made abroad. As Papke him- self is one of the pugilists in ques- tion, he speaks feelingly on the sub- ject. “The trouble is with the food,” said he. “For a long time I did not know what was the matter with it,. It did not taste right, and I seemed to be running down. Final ly I discovered that there was not enough salt in it. In Australia the cooking is not good and the food lacks salt. “I believe that with a fighter salt is very necessary, diet on fresh foods that are not prop- erly seasoned as far as salt is con-

» CUTSHIS ARTERIES BECAUSE HIS WIFE ISSO FOND OF HM Philip H. Nickerson. Says She Wants to Sit on His Lap Con- tinually and Kiss.

GETS ON HIS’ NERVES

Says They Fussed Because He Wouldn’t Make Fuss Over Her and He Wanted to. Die. — Philip H. Nickerson of 4642 Vernon avenue, who slashed the arteries of his wrists Monday evening in an attempt to end his life, told a Post-Dispatch re- porter at the. eity hospital Tuesday tha: he tried to kill himself because his wife was too affectionate. Nickerson has been married only sev- en months. “I’m fond of my wife,” he said, “and I want her to be fond of me. But there is a limit to all things. A man needs a little independence. Since I married I have had little peace. “My wife has denied me the right to read and smoke. .She wants to sit continually upon my lap and hug and kiss me. If I light my pipe while she is about she comes to me and then complains of the smoke. If I stand ap she stands up, too, and places her arms about me. It got upon my nerves. Wanted More Letters. “Once.I went away on a trip,” he said. ‘I wrote my wife every day while away, but that aid not please her. When I got back she quarreled with me because I didn’t write her three times a day. “I wanted to die last night. She started fussing with me again be- cause I didn't care to make a fuss over her. I'm glad now, however, that I am to get well, and I hope she wil] give me a little more considera- tion, as I will have to go back and live with her.” Falls From Exhaustion. Nickerson cut his wrists at 7:80 p.m. He had been quarreling with his wife, and finally forced her into a room, locked the door and compelled her to witness the slashing process. He cut his wrists with a razor, and then held his hands up and allowed the blood to flow down his arms. Finally, from exhaustion, he fell upon a bed. His wife’s screams attracted the attention of N. R. Johnstone,.who lives at #0 Vernon avenue. Johnstone rushed into the house, bandaged Nick- erson’s wrists and sent for Dr. John C. Falk of 4568 Page avenue. The lat- ter ordered his removal to the hospi- tal. ; Mrs. Nickerson refused to discuss her husband's act. She met Nickerson on a train coming, to St. Louis and after a three months’ courtship they were married. She was a Miss Hattie E)- ders.

BOY SAVES 3 PERSONS FROM DEATH IN RIVER Rescues Them From Disabled Launch, Then Takes Them Out After Fall in River. Denver McCoy, 17 years old, saved Mrs. Barney Ostermann and her 18- year-old daughter, Carrie, and her 22-year-old son, Warren, from drown- ing when they fell into the Mississippi river at Alton Monday afternoon. The three started out from the Fiuent dock for a launch ride when the engine stopped and the launch floated down stream. McCoy rowed out and took Mre. Ostermann and her son and daughter into his skiff. All three attempted to get out of the boat at once and capsized it at the outer side of the dock, where the water is 30 feet deep. As they went down they clung to each other and McCoy, who had jumped to the dock, caught Miss Ostermann’s arm and prevented gil three from being swept ‘away by the current. The boy caiied for help and three men ran from the bank and assisted him in the rescue. HUSBAND PUTS LIMIT ON WIFE’S BEATINGS Louis A.
