MAKES A MULE RUN AWAY First Stop of the Day at Blue Springs, Where a Spark Plug Blew Out. KANSAS CITY, Mo., Oct. 11.—C. P. Rodgers, sea-to-sea aviator, landed in Swope Park here at 11:3 a. m., after fiving 8% miles from Marshall, Mo., to- day. Before settling to earth in the pres- ence of several thousand persons at the park, nine miles from the business cen- ter, Rodgers circled above the city hall and downtown streets. He also hovered above the live stock pavilion at the stock yards, where several thousand persons attending a stock show watched his flight. Reaching here, he had covered 1483 iriJes since leaving New York, 25 days ago, and was within a few hours’ flight from the half-way point in his cross- continent journey. He has set a new mark for long dis- tance aerial navigation, but Atwood, the former holder of this honor flew 1265 miles in 10 days, from the Post-Dispatch Building in 8t. Louis to New York. At- wood flew from St. Louis to Chicago, 284 miles, on his first day out, while Rodgers’ greatest distance was 214 miles, Springfield, lll., to Marshall, Mo:, Tues- day. Rodgers’ start at Marshall, Mo., was made at 8:24 o'clock this morning. He was out early, tuning up his ma- chine, and a big crowd was on hand to watch him. Just before the start a Missouri mule attached to a cart near by be- came frightened by the whirring motors and ran away. The spectators scattered hurriedly, but the animal dashed through the crowd and in- jured a rnan and a woman and over- turned several buggies before it was subdued, In passing Higginsville the aviator circled over the town three timés, while a great crowd watched, and then continued his dash. Rodgers intended to come to Kansas City without alighting, but was forced to come down half a mile south of Blue Springs and 20 miles from here, on account of the blowing out of a spark plug. He was delayed there until 10:50 in making repairs and then took to the air again. He passed over Independence, 10 miles east of here, at a height of 500 feet, and going at a terrific rate, at 11:06 a. m. Four minutes later he crossed the Big Blue River. —_—--_--»-— —- - AVIATOR KEARNEY IS BADLY HURT IN FALL St. Louis Aviator Flies Into a Tree in Exhibition at Bloom- ington, Ind.

Contractors who did the plastering in the Municipal Courts Building ad- mitted at a Board of Public Improve- ments hearing Wednesday that they substituteq a material costing $9 a ton for one costing $18 a ton in cev- ering 11,000 yards of ceiling and that ment used on the walls. The cheaper ceiling material, they sald, was substituted with the con- sent:of Max Paffrath, engineer of the Board of Public Improvements, and William G, Evans, representing the architect, Isaac S, Taylor. William Goss and Dennis Shea, members of the Chicago firm of Goss, Geitz & Shea, were the witnesses. Used Better Materials. Both said that the substitutions were made in the belief that they would make a better job and that the substituted materials were superior to those called for in the contract. At tbe conclusion of their President Reber announced that it had been proven that materials not named ‘n the specifications had been used with- wut the sanction of the Board of Public Improvements and that further investi- gation would be made to determine whether the result of these substitutions had been detrimental to the building. Goss testified that a patent mor’ ‘r was specified for the ceilings, but builders all over the country had bh testimony was afraid to use it. Had Engineer's Consent. He came to Bt. Louls and talked to Architect Taylor and asked ‘his permis- sion to use a.cement bonding material for the first coat, instead of the patent mortar. Taylor would not give him a definite answer. After 4500 yards of ceiling had been done according to specifications, he said, he -talked to Evans and Paffrath and they agreed that he might use the cement bonding material as a first coat. He told them this would involve ad- ditional expense but they said he could not get any more money. The job, he said coct his firm $1093 more than if specifi- cations had been followed. He stated his belief that if the ceilings had been done according to specifications they would have fallen within 20 days. Pat Sand in Cement. On cross-examination by Charles J. Fox, attorney for thé Plasterers’ Union, Goss said the specifications for the plaster to be put on the walls did noi prescribe the use of sand. Neither did they forbid it, he said. He said one pail of sand was added to each 100 pounds of the prescribed cement. This was done to make a smoother job and prevent cracking.

A 83-year-old child of the runaway pair was in the matron’s detention room at Police Headquarters Wednesday, lia Mudge and Mrs. La Croix were locked up on charges on which Mrs. La Mudge stands ready to prosecute them.

He peeled potatoes on steamboats, ran hotel elevators in Cincinnati and Chi- cago, and his last position was that of an elevator conductor in the Hotel Jef- ferson here. He learned that his stepfather and Mrs. La Croix were known in St. Lou.s as Frank Sanborn and wife. . Under this name he traced them to a rooming house on Pine street, whence they had moved, and the youth finally got the Washintgton avenue address from their former landlady. When he found his stepfather, Harris told him he had left home because of his mother’s scoldings and abuse. La Mudge expressed sympathy for him, and the youth posed as his sympathizing friend wntil his mother reached St. louis. Then he took her to Associate Prosecuting Attorney Wilsoe, and the Geuble arrest followed.

Inventor Working on Machine That Is Expected to Soar Like a Hawk.

Bird-like flying wil! supplant avia- tion, if the expectation of Wilbur Wright, as he explained it during his stay in St. Louis Tuesday, is realized, “The greatest sport in the world,” said the noted Dayton inventer to a Post-Dispatch reporter at Hotel Jeffer- son, “will be rising from the earth without a motor, by manipulation of the air currents with a machine adapted to that purpose, to a height of 600 or 800 feet, then descending or ascending at will, by the same. use-of air currents, “My brother,- Orville; and I believe this can be hrought about, and that is the purpose of. the experiments he is making at ‘Kitty Hawk, N. C. To Fly Like a Hawk. “The wonderful thing about a hawk’s wings is not their construction, but the bawk's use @f° them.: And real flying will not be s@ much a matter of the ma- chine as of learning how to use it. &t may: be found best to retain the motor, but its use. will be made optional with the operator. He can yse it to get up with when the lower air is calm, and can abandon it when he gets higher. But we contend, that we shal] learn to leaye the ground without the motor. | “This ia not.a.new idea with us. We have studied it for years., It may take a good while to work it eut. It has taken hundreds of years to get to the point-we have now reached, and people must not be too impatient for new re- sults. Flying No Longer Dangerous. “The problem of balance and equilibra-

way flying is no longer dangerous. The tragedies of exhibition aviation have been due to reckless stunts and risks which are not a proper part of aviation. ‘In this way, and because the occasional accidents are heralded broadcast, while the successful daily flights are hardly noticed, the public has the idea that aviation is highly dangerous. “Were it not for this exaggerated idea of the dangers of aviation, many wealthy men in every city would take it up as a pastime, and would buy aeroplanes as they now buy motor cars. In this way, the exhibition side of aviation has injured its commercial possibilities.” ger carrying, as a commercial proposi- tion, was mentioned, the low spoken, softly smiling Wright shook his bald head. ; ‘Thus far,’’ he repHed, “there: is no. business of that sort in sight. “No one rides in.an aeroplane now because he wishes to go somewhere, but. ‘merely. because he wishes the ride. Such. mail carrying as there has ‘been is of the same sort—done just forthe sake going it. What: fray ds would not like ‘to predict that “i? will be.’ tt Wright Goes East. Wright left for New York, accom- panied by Roy Knabenshue, Tuesday night, after spending a day here visit- ing the Kinloch Park field and discuss- ing arrangements for the exhibition meet to begin there Saturday. After dinner, Wright and Knabenshue accom- panied President Lambert of the St. Louis Aero Club and H. Spearman Lewis to a moving picture theater, where the films showing last fall’s avia- tion meet here were put on. It was Wright's first view of the brilliant per- formahces of Hoxsey and Jonnstone here. Later, when the party visited the

tion has been pretty nearly solved. In any wind short of a cyclone, straight- ° -—_—___—_—_-_—

FORMER ENATOR DENIES LORIMER BRIBERY G. M. McCormick Declares He Did Not Receive a Cent for His Vote. eS CHANGED ON 95TH BALLOT

Says He Voted for Republican Candidate So as to Break Long Deadlock.

CHICAGO, Oct. 11.—The first witness called today before the Lorimer Senate Investigating C@mmittee was Former State Senator GeUrge_M. McCormick of Alton. - Mr. McCormick described his part in the 199 deadlock at Springfield, He said that he changed his vote from Hopkins to Lorimer on the 9th ballot. Previous to changing hic vote, he said, that he had told former Gov. Richard Yates, Mr. Lorimer and several other men that he would give his vote to the first Republican that showed suf- ficient strength to break the deadlock. McCormick denied flatly the stor. told yesterday by John M. Peffcrs, who said McCormick -had been offered $2500 for his (McCormick’s) vote. “IT was offered nothing for my vote and was given nothing for it. I voted for Mr. Lorimer simply and solely to break the deadlock. I know of no corruption in that election,” said Mc- Cormick. On cross-examination McCormick said that former Lieutenant-Governor North- cott, one of Albert J. Hopkins’ mana- gers, suggested that McCormick change his vote from Hopkins to Lorimer. While being interrogated by Senator Kern, McCormick said that he had nev- er suspected any member of the Legis- lature of dishonesty or eoeruptsen . of any character. “T left the Legislature believing that every member was as _ as gold,” said McCormick: “Later,” contiued the Witness, “I read some things in the newspapers that made me suspect that possibly there had been two or three crooked fellows there that I had never dreamed of.”’ Jolin M. Peffers returned to the wit- ness stand follawing McCormick and asked to have the record show his in- tention plainly in the testimony which he gave before the committee yester- day. Attorney Hanecy and Peffers engaged in a lively argument as to Peffer’s-pur- pose in returning to the stand. “You want to take back what you sald esterday, do you?’’ asked Mr. Hanecy. “No, .I “don't,” replied Peffers. , state . Representative testified that former Representative John Griffin, a Democrat, told him (Ter- brill) that he could get $1000 for Terrill’s vote for Lorimer. Terrill, whose home is at Colchester, followed John M. Peffers on the wit- ness stand. Terrill Names Griffin. He said that John Griffin, then a mem- ber of the House from a Chicago dis- trict met him near the St. Nicholas Hotel the day before Lorimer’s election in 1909. “Griffin asked me to vote for Lori- mer and told me that there would be $1000 in it for me,” testified Terrill. Terrill further testified at 9 o’clock the night before Lorimer’s election Lorimer sent for him. “David Shanahan came for me,” said Terrill, ‘and took me to-Mr. Lorimer. “Mr. Lorimer was in the speaker's room at the State House. The House was in session at this time. ‘‘Mr. Lorimer asked for my vote and said that he had the votes and that he would put them over the next day.” The name of State Representative Richard P. Hagen of Chicago was brought into the investigation by Terrill, who said Hagen was approached at the time of the 1909 deadlock with an offer of $1000 for his vote. Hagen has been subpoenaed and may be placed on the witness stand late today. The arrival of Senator Kern of Indiana aad Senator Gamble of South Dakota during the morning completed the Federal Committee which is con- ducting the hearings.

The administrator, in his final settlement, filed Tuesday after- noon, showed that the McKinley sys- tem agreed to pay $3000 for Hill’s death, $2000 for Miss Sawyer’s and $1000 for Mrs. Hill’s. He distributed the money among the heirs, but the heirs of Mrs. Hill ed, saying Hill gied first and that Hill's heirs were entitled to $3006, There is tnvolved also $1000 Insurance on Hill’s life and $500 on his wife, each making the other beneficiary.

at the specifications, and that Shea clutched him by the arm, and said: “Ron't get me in bad by hollering to the Board. What do you want?” “T told him,” said Lee, “that I didn't want anything except to see that the plasterers didn’t get the worst of it.” Shea was cross-examined by Attorney Fox. He testified that the specifications did not call for the use of sand in the plaster for the walls and ceiling, and that he added the sand to the lime and plaster of paris, believing it wopld make a better job. He said the finish was the best possible to obtain. He said the specifications were pre- pared by Architect Taylor, but that he believed them impractical. He said such changes as he made were approved by William G. Evans, representing Taylor, and Max Paffrath, representing the city. He was asked if the specifications did not require that certain cornices, pan- els and moldings should be of Keene's cement, and if they had not been made of plaster of paris. “T construed the specifications to mean,” he said, ‘“‘that only the finish was to be of Keene’s cement. If they didn’t mean that, fhey were foolish. I never knew of a job done with pure Keene’s cement.’’ President Reber stopped the cross-ex- amination here, saying that only ques- tions tending to show whether inferior materials had been used, would be per- mitted. ‘ ~—

PHOEBE COUZINS LL DEPENDS ON CHARITY FOR FOOD Former St. Louis Woman Is ina Cheap Washington Lodging House, Penniless.

Interests for Which She Traveled | fense of John W. Wash, a substantial and Spoke Fail. to Provide in Trying Hour. By Wire From the Washington Bu- id reau of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, Oct. 11.—Miss Phoebe W. Couzins, a native of St. Louis, famous lawyer, public speaker and writer, is poverty stricken and ill in @ lodging house here. She has written to ascertain if there is a fund at the Board of Charities that she could’ get money. from to defray her expenses until some of her old friends can come to her aid. * “Tt is a sad fact,” said Miss Cozens to a Post-Dispatch correspondent, “that have been hungry and knew not where to turn for food. The woman who runs this house is poor and cannot afford to keep me withqut pay. If I eat I must have the cash.’ Miss Couzins is het ween 65 and 70 years old. During the Civil War she helped her mother in United’ States sanitary commission work. In 1871 she was graduated from the University of Wash- ington law school. She succeeded her father, J. E. D. Couzins as United. States Mashal of the Eastern District of Missouri. For a time she was sec- retary of the board of lady managers of the World's Columbian Exposition. Miss Couzins lectured for years in favor of woman suffrage and the army canteen. One @6f her present grievances is that, in her hour of need and distress, the United States Brewers’ Association has, so she declares, deserted her, leav- ing her penniless and helpless. This brilliant woman of days gone by is so reduced that she often suffers the pangs of hunger. Last week she went 48 hours without food because she lacked means to obtain it. A woman friend, hearing of her plight, took her bread and tea. Up to the first of this year Miss Couzins enjoyed an income suffi- ciently large to keep her in hotels of her own choosing. Now she must de- pend upon friends. She is hauntéd by the fear that she will havé to beg. Looks Thin and Wan, When seen by the Post-Dispatch cor- | capone Miss Couzins was reclining on her bed. She looked thin and wan. Some time ago she fell out of bed and was seriously injured. Since then she has been unable to get about. ‘My health has been fragile for years,”’ she said, “so at best things were Add poverty to ‘ill fairs. “T think it is an outrage that a wom- has so often been. before the be driven to such straits and nobody Nevertheless I believe there is some way I have sent for a representa- tive of the Board of Charities to see if I could draw on it for temporary relief merchant of Palmyra, Macoupin Coun- ity, who is om trial here for killing Clar- ence Martin, formerly employed in his hardware store. Wash’s lawyers’ case rests on the contention that Martin had acted improperly with Mrs. Wash and u daughter, lzetta Wasn, 14 years old. The first important witness was Charles Dorks, who happened to be in Wash’s hardware store when the shoot- ing occurred, but who said he did not see it. He heard Wash accuse Martin of intimacy with Mrs. Wash, he testi- fied, and heard him add: “You'd better take her afid get out of town with her.” Then, Dorks testified, Martin retorted. ‘‘Keep her yourself. I don’t want her. She’s good enough fer you.” When.Dorks saw Wash reach for his revolver, he fled. Martin turned to run, too, and was shot as he was trying to get out of the store. A jury was selected yesterday after-

In subsequent statements to newspaper reportérs, Mrs. Wash is d to havé ad- mitted she had conducted herself im- properly with Martin. She said that if he had been attentive to her daughter, she knew nothing of it. She is 42 years oy her husband 50. The girl is the eld- est of three children.

ALOREN TAKEN [EVIGTED wT FROM SECT’S CAMP GET NEW HOMES Probation Officer Obtained Cus- tody When Girl Told of Sacrifice Plans.

LIVED IN TENT AT PIASA

No Stove and Little Food Found in Apostolic and Pentecostal Faith Camp.

Fifteen-year-old Daisy de Shirley and the four children rescued with her from a camp of believers in the “Apostolic and Pentacostal Faith” at Piasa Chau- tauqua, were taken Wednesday to Al- ton and put in the homes of charitable families there. It will be necessary to advertise the fact for at least ten days before they can claim the homes as permanently theirs. The children were living in a tent, with no stove and with little to eat, in care of Mrs. Anna Baird of 3318 Morgan street, St. Louis, when Mrs. Sophia Demuth, probation officer in Alton, took charge of them. Mrs. Demuth’s action was due to reports she received from persons living near the camp that Daisy de Shirley was about to be offered as a human sacrifice. The girl said Mrs. Baird had received a message from the Lord, which was written out on paper, directing that she (Daisy) be offered as “a bleeding sacrifice,” and that from hér would rise a pure prophet of a new religion. The girl was frightened and told neighbors, who sent the word to Alton. Mrs. Bair denied that she intended to harm the girl, and said the mes- Sage meant only to destroy an evil spirit in her. This, Mrs. Baird intend- ed to do, she said, mentally. The other children are Mary Facon, 15 years old, Edna Fisher, 10, La- vinia Fisher, 6, and Homer Fisher, 8. MINISTER IS TRIED FOR COUNTERFEITING Two Other Clergymen_Interesi Themselves in His Defense; 3 Cities Interested. SYRACUSE, N. Y.. Oct. 11.—Two prominent Syracuse clergymen, the Rev. R. E. Burton ond the ‘Rev. Dr. Albert E. Coit, havé . ‘erested them- selves in the defense of the Rev. Vic- tor Ferrant of this city, who is being tried before Judge Ray in the United

States Court at Auburn upon a charge of counterfeiting. Accused with Ferrant, who until his arrest was at the head of the Italian Baptist mission here, are his brother Francesco and Phipil Gior- dano. There are witnesses from this city, Boston, Providence and New Yori, in which cities the prosecutor claims counterfeiting has been car- ried on along an extensive scale, The accused men were arrested in Syra- cuse upon information furnished the police by secret. service operatives, They had alleged counterfeiting im- plements. worm | WIT EY MAKES WAR ON SOFT DRINKS Concoctions to Be Analyzed, and if Harmful Sale Will Be Prohibited. WASHINGTON, Oct. 11.—“I am firm. ly convinced,” said Dr. Harvey W. Wiley today, “that we should permit the sale of no soft drinks except those made from pure fruit extracts, sugar, water, carbonated or plain, and spices.”’ Dr. Wiley declared that as soon as the Fvod and Drug Inspection Board passes upon “What is a soft drink,” the gale of any beverage deemed harmful will be prohibited. He added that he was in favor of stopping the sale of any drink not chemically pure and free of all arti- ficial flavoring. “These fizz drinks must be inspected,”’ said Dr. Wiley, “if they contain in- gredients that injure the héalth they can do much damage. Many persons drink them. I think the fizg that accompanies them makes them popular.”’

FOUND LIFELESS LANDLORD DI Owner Collapses When He Re- turns to Tenement and Is Railed at for His Action.

By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch, NEW’ YORK, Oct. i11.—“A punish- ment, a retribution,”’ said the more: im- pressionable dwellers in Néwark’s Ghet- to today of David Laskowitz’s death. He owned 14 tenement houses in New- ark, N. J., and had the reputation of being an exacting landlord. Laskowitz evicted Samuel Wangner, a tailor suf- fering from tuberculosis, Friday night. Wangner was found dead next morn- ing. Hurrying from the wrath of Wang- ner’s friends, Laskowitz feil dead Mon- day. Wangner, his wife and two small chil- dren occupied a little flat in Lasko- witz's tenement house. He owed six weeks’ rent, $15. On the eve of the Feast of Tabernacle, on which the pious give thanks for autumn’s rich gifts to man, Laskowitz went to collect the rent. Wangner, who was ill in bed, offered $10, all the money he had, his friends say, and promised to pay the balance in a few days. Laskowitz refused the $10 and at 10 o’clock that night, when it was raining, turned Wangner and his family out of doors. David Silverman, who lives in the same house, made room for Wangner. Saturday morning Sil- verman went to awaken Wangner and found him dead. The people of the neighborhood in their synagogues that day prayed that comfort and ala might be vouchsafed to the widow and the fatherless chil- dren. Laskowitz heard that the peo- ple’s anger burned fierce against him and he did not appear to collect other rents until late Monday. Then the women particularly railed at Laskowitz and eau him cruel and heartless. — “You, who have $100,000 th the banks and in real estate—you show no mercy sr pity—and for $65." Laskowitz walked away swiftly, but had not gone far when he stopped, reeled, fell forward ‘unconscious. A doctor was called, but Laskowitz was}, dead.

HIPS _HAVE COME BACK Imitation of College Gown, With Slashed Sleeve, and Shaded Furs New Novelties. By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Oct.°11.—The hobble skirt hasn’t gone—not really. It has only descended to the ankle, where it is. pulled in with a bapd of sable and ‘warranted to trip its. wearer with the greatest case imaginable. It was prom- inent—fathered by Worth—at a big gown show here, and came in company with the oddest echoes from feminine pasts that fashion has permitted herself these many years. There was the quaintest little polo- naise—a dawning hint of a Dolly Var- den—in French blue over a white satin skirt and bodice: The narrow black vel- vet that bordered it was demure. But there is no doubt of it, ladies, you'll have hips again before the sea- son's over. The mode was a Paquin and it did not need a telescope to dis- cover that the wasp waist may yet re- turn to discountenance the straight- fronted Venus de Milo brigade, who have been concealing their avoirdupois. There was even a glimpse of the old basque—veritably, my dears. Imagine yourselves in cloudy skirts with a sky blue or green or pink silk basque point- ed front and back. Get the effect? Paquin Threatens Something. That is Paquin, too. Paquin has tired of the linelessness of the female form and threatens even anything—even hoops. For the rest, everything must reach the ‘ground, it may even aspire to a train, but the train must never be straight. To be truly chic you have a little sidewise tail follow you about with why the tafl er a brocade, say—for brocadées are quite the proper caper— should descend only at the left except that it disposes of the end of the material without resorting to the scis- sors and pulls back the frock sufficient- ly to show your right silk stocking some third or so of its length—if you are in a hurry. There are the empire waiste—up under the arms—the so-called natural waists, and no waiets at all in the modish gowns. It is an affair of choice. As in con- color or material, is added. New Suffrage Gown. The real novelty in evening wraps is It is carried out in blue velvet with a fold of blue satin reaching from hem to the slashed velvet sleeve being of the same material. The craze for shaded effects has run into furs. The garments are made of pieces sewed up and down so that the lighter and darker tones may be seen as milady moves. Infinitesimal pieces go to make up the rippled surface of ermine. In rainbow tones a suffrage gown has been accomplished, the violet, the green and the white of the militants showing in a chiffon combination which is at least striking.

TS HE Browns will have to face the Dest pitching Manager Bresnahan of the Cardinals can present in the seven-game series for the local championship, which begins at Sports- man’s Park Wednesday afternoon. The American Leaguers will not oppose the young slabsters sent to the firing line in the closing stages of the National League season. Manager Bresnahan says he will pick his twirlere from Bob Harmon, Bill Steele and Jakie Geyer with Louis Loudermilk as a possibility. This quar- tet will have to do the hurling as Roger has sent the youngsters home for the winter. ; Cn the other hand, the only youngs- sters Manager Waliace will depend on are Berl Hamilton and “Lefty” George, the juvenile southpews. The Cardinals trimmed George in the springtime, al- though he pitched the best game of any of the American Leaguers against the League Parkers. Thomas Edward will probably get another chance. Hamilton Is Best Hope. ton, though, is the best hope of Browns. The Cardinals have usually been easy prey for southpaws this season and if Hamilton comes ans, Barney Pelty, Joe Lake and Jack Powell will share the Browns’ twirling. Hamilton will likely get hia best aid from Barney Pelty, who has pitched the best ball of Wallace's veterans this sea- son. Barney, too, is a rood cold weath- er twirler while Powell and Lake like the sunshine. : | Whether Manager Wallaco gets in the ‘series remains to be seen.

S long as the present boxing law is A on the statute books, unilluminated by any legal interpretation, just that long will the citizens of the State rest in uncertainty as to what they may or may not doe under its provisions. As it stands one may reasonably ex- pect to see boxing tolerated in one coun- ty and prevented in another. For the law is not specific in distinguishing be- tween boxing and prize fighting. Thus the officials may think that boxing should be construed as meaning pink- tea point-counting affairs in St. Charles County, or heavyweight knockouts in Jackson County. A prize fight may likewise be made to appear any public encounter in which men battle for money or medals or it may mean what it was originally tntended to—a bare- knuckle fight to a finish under London prize ring rules, now obsolete, he ae ALL IN THE VIEWPOINT. HAT St. Louis, Springfield, Kansas City and St. Joseph officiala should _take different views of the subject is therefore to be expected. And dis- cussion will continue for all time, unless some legal ruling, binding everywhere in the State, is made to define just ex- tinguished from a prize fight—where one leaves off and the other begins. 7. . * SAME TROUBLE ELSEWHERE. F the Mozart Club pushes its intention | to make a test case, so that a ju- dicial ruling can be made under the law, it will be doing the authorities as well as the public a service. In fact, the entire country is in the alr over the same question, as witness the calling off of the McFarland-Wol- gast contest at Milwaukee recently. Wis- consin, it should be remembered, has a law permitting boxing. Yet the Govy- ernor stopped this-10-round contest on the ground that “it was going to be a prise fight.’’ Wise owl, he, to know all about a thing that never happened. But one wouldn't like to be the judge who has to decide the much mooted point. Whichever way he leans he is certain to offend the pet convictions of one set of citizens or another. eee THE HIDDEN KICK. HERE’S a menacing angle to the ae present law, too, that may cause a shiver to creep up the-spines of some of the promoters. For example: In the days when Charles “Hardluck” Haughton was chased from the West End Club and sent adrift, he started fights on the river. He made the mis- take of arranging his matches on this side, however, and once more left @ loophole for attack. For the Missouri law makes it a felony to even. arrange @ match in this State, no matter where it is to take place, if the same is to be a prize fight.. They stopped Haughton on this ground.: Yessir, this local boxing iron is a hot one to handle. About the best thing that could happen would be the prosecution of a suit that would bring out just what rights clubs have fn the matter end just what is a boxing match. If the Mozart Verein accomplishes this it will not have tived in vain, even if it ig put out of existence. GIANTS HAVE BIG FOLLOWING. ETTING on the world’s series here BR has developed a surprising amount of opinion in favor of the Giants. While there are no considerable sums up, as far as can be learned, there is enough Giant fron men marshalled in the field to keep the odds at even money. In fact one wager of $100 to $90 on the Giants was reported today. However, both sides appear to be rest- ing on their oars waiting for the post prices. Many then expect to see the Athletics take the favorite’s end. PETCHERS HOLD THE KEY. Nearly all of the conservative base- ball players have taken the side of the Giants, howe Probably Mathewson ia the large factor in forming this opinion. The wise heads in the base- ball world think that 45 per cent of the battle will be due to his pitching effec. Addie Joss ence was wrongly quoted as having said the pitcher was 8% per cent of the strength of a.club. . What rhe really intended to state was that he

At that I think the price ought to be 100 to 1 Instead of 10 to 1.” Wagering on a Hunch. So, after all, what is the use of worrying our heads about the records? Here we find a bunch of men who know baseba!! from top to bettom, going in the face of all statistics and betting their good hard coin on a good hunch.

Bender says that he is afraid to take any chances with his regulars by having anything more than signal practice Wednesday and Thursday. The lineup for Saturday’s game has been decided upen and the following men wil] start the game: Maguire, 156 pounds, left end; Tony Stadtherr, 18 pounds, left tackle; Sieh, 165 pounds, left guard; Higley, 19 pounds, center; Schloemer, 169 pounds, right guard; Moran, 18 pounds, right tackle; Bhr- hardt, 145 pounds, right end; Carroll, 146 pounds, quarter back; Patnter, 165 pounds, right halfback; Zachrita, 158 pounds, left halfback; Ed Stadtherr, 155 pounds, fullback. New Lineman te Report. Carl Powell, a 185-pound lineman, who Played with the Barnes University team, has enrolled at the unfversity and will be out for practice Wednesday aft- ernoon. Powell may make the team, as Bender need® weight more than any- thing else. Illinois is all that the boys on the squad are talking about these days and strange to say the members of the squad think that they have a good chance to win the game. Bender says that his team hasn’t a chance. [If his team gets by with only three touch- downs gcored against them in Satur- day’s battle Bender will be more than satisfied. Cayou Squad Crippled. Falvey, who was one of the stars of the Washington University eleven last year, again reported for practice Tuesday. The Wash- ington squad may be without the services of some of its best men Saturday as the result of tnjurfes. Cayou did not let down a bit | Twesday evening, but’ sent nis regulars in for @ hard scrimmage practice against the second-team men. Nipher, Berryhil., Sherman and Bryan were some of the Washington bpys who had to watch the practice from the side lines. Nipher may be able to get imto the game Saturday, and Cayou’s star back-field man will be badly needed, as the Normals from Cape Girardeau, which will oppose the Ptkers, are a strong team and St. Louis U, was lucky to beat the down-state boys. The fact that Shurtleff proved such an easy proposition last Saturday has given the Pikers a lot of confidence and the students think that this year’s team wil! prove the best that has represented the school in years.

By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NHW YORK, Oct. 11.—After denounc- ing Attorney-General Wickersham and Postmaster-General Hitchcock for in- stigating the indictment of two Rich- mond publishers for sending alleged ‘unfit’? matter through the mails in con- nection with the Beattie wife murder trial and the attempt of the twe de- partment heads to do likewise on other charges in Atlante, Clark Howell, ed- itor and publisher of the Atlanta Cen- stitution, in an interview at the Hotel Gotham, praised the New York Werld highly for its attitude on these preceed- in. rhe Atianta papers, Howell said, had published nothing about the trial of Henry Clay Beattie Jr. that had not been sent them by the Associated Press. The claim on the part of the Postoffice Department that the matter sent by Richmond papers threugh the mails in this connection was ‘“‘obscene” had re- sulted in proceedings that the Atlanta editor thought smacked of bureaucracy Unless the World’s protests were heed- ed, Howell felt sure the freedom of the press ‘would be serieusly, if not forever, circumscribed. Howell Not Surprises. “Tt am not surprised,’’ said Howell, “at any action of any kind that has been taken by the Postoffice Department or by the. so-called Department of Justice. The pecullar policy that has character- ized the present administration of- both of these departments has never been ap-} proached by anything at any time since_ the days of the Spanish Inquisition. In- | stead of responding to the demands of an indignant public sentiment that ex- tends over the whole country, they are more intolerant. “These two departments, headed by Mr. Hitchcock and Mr. Wickersham, heave already proven to be the Old Men administration. The President must either repudiate them and their iniqui- tious and insolent methods or he him- under their combined weight. This action in Richmond is simply another evidence of the insane extremities to which bureaucracy can go. Never before in this country has there been anything to approach it.”’ ,’ “— JOURNAL GIVES ITS SIDE OF CASE Spectal spatoh. RICH 0 D> Va., Oct. 1L—The follow- ing signed statement was given to the Post-Dispatch representative today: “The Richmond Evening Journal has been indicted by a Federal grand jury on the charge of publishing obscene matter in connection with the trial of Henry C. Beattie Jr for the murder of his wife, Louise Owen Beattie. The particular offense alleged against the Journal is that it transgressed a:u vi- olated the proprieties in its report of the testimony of Mrs. Robert V. Owen, mother of the slain woman. In the course of her evidence, Mrs. Owen was asked to repeat to the jury a conver- gation with her daushter that took place a few days before the murder. In repeating that conversation she said her daughter showed her certain gar- ments that had been worn by the pris- oner, which garments disclosed the prob- able motive Henry Beattie would have to kill his wife. ‘‘Throughout the trial until Mrs. Owen testified the public was insistently ask- ing the question, ‘Why did menry kill bis wife?’ Mrs. Owen's testimony an- swered that question. Taste and Delicacy. “The offense alleged resolves itself into the question, ‘Can the Federal] ju- diciary take from the press the right of free speech in quoting the formal testi- mony of a reputable witness in a state court, under the guise of protecting the public against the reading of aaeree able facts?’ “Tt is true a matter of taste and delicacy is involved, but this matter leg between the newspaper and its readers, tc be settled outside of the courts. “R, M.

Wants to Use “Third and Tenth Streets, Lucas ‘and Clark Avenues. ~ TAPS BUSINESS DISTRICT Would Be Difficult to Operate Two Systems With Different Gauge of Rails. Commenting on the Post-Dispatch ed- itorial suggesting a loop in the busi- “ness district of St. Louis to give the Hast St. Louis & Suburban Railway, ‘with its interurbun connection, a di- rect entrance into St. Louis over the Hads Bridge, President Reber of the Board of Public Improvements said: “An ideal loop for the development of interurban traffic would begin at Third street and Washington avenue, at the west end of the Eads Bridge ap- proach, run south on Third street to Clark avenue, west on Clark to Eighth street, north on Highth to Walnut street, west on Walnut to Tenth street, north on Tenth to Lucas avenue, and east on Idicas to Third street, connecting again with the tracks on the Eads Bridge. “The difficulty about getting loops for interurban traffic in St. Louis Is that the gauge of the United Railways system is 4 feet 10 inches, while the gauge on all modern interurban and street railway systems is 4 feet 8% inches. Dodges United Railways Line. “The loop I have suggested would be on streets not now occupied by United Iiailways lines, except for the block - between Broadway and Sixth street on Laicas avenue. “The City of St. Louis, if it had the legal power, ought to buud and own this luop, and offer it for the use of ail East fide interurban systems. “The city has no power now to build and own railway lines. lt could acquire the power by legislation and charter and-constitutional amendment. It should not grant a franchise giving exclusive control ofthis very valuable loop to any one corporation. If it grants a franchise for an interurban loop it should retain such powers of contro] that all interur- ban systems could acquire the right to \ use it on equitable terms.

The right to use it would be a valuable privi- lege to any interurban line. It would be also an excellent thing for the business interests of the city. “This route is practically the only one would be a rather difficult matter to operate two systems of different gauges ‘on the same streets. “A double track system could be built in St. Louis at a cost of about $30,000 a mile. The expenses of building the loop would not be great.’ Louis C. Haynes, vice-president and general manager of the East St. Lou’: and Suburban Railway, which operates 185 miles on lines on the East Side, tolc a Post-Dispatch reporter that his com- pany had not seriously considered enter- ing St. Louis up to this time because he had regarded the difterence in the gauges of the East and West Side sys- tems as an insurmountable barrier. The plan of the loop suggested by President Reber was laid before Vic*: President Haynes by a Post-Dispatch reporter. Also President Rever’s statc- ment that this loop would overcome ‘the barrier of the difference in gauges of the two systems. Difference in Gauge Vital. “TT am glad to see thut St. Louis would like to have the ast St. Lonis & Suburban Railway makc a loop in its business district,’’ said Vice Vresident Haynes. “At various times I _ had thought of attempting te get inte St. Louis with our lines. B." it had always seemed to me to be impossible. becanse we could not operate our cars on United Railways tracks. ‘The loop suggested’ by President Re- ber, on first thought, seems to be too large. We would have to give too much service to St. Louis. I could not. say just now what we would undertake to do with respect to wetting a franchise to operate over the proposed loop. Huw- ever, we appreclate the spirit which 8t, Louis is showing in this matter. “At various times business men and bankers of St. Louis have talked with me about a loop on the West Side. The St. Louls street railway system has a gauge that is now practically obsolete. All interurban systems built in the last 10 years have the gtandard railway gauge of 4 feet 8% Inches, “We changed the East St. Louts gauge to the standard railway gauge several years ago so that the interur- ban lines could operate on the city tracks. We wished to be able to furn- ish terminal facilities, not only for our own interurban lines, but also for ali other interurban lines entering East St Louis. The McKinley system operated over our terminals for several years, until it vompleted its bridge. “We had not cortemplated overating our cars over the free bridge int» St. Louls for the same reason thet had kept us out at the Eads bridge.” The East St. Louls & Suburban Rail- way Co. operates interurban lines to Alton, Edwardsville, Granite City, Mad. ison and Venice, Collinsville, “Casey- ville and Belleville. The system is owned by the Clark Bros. Syndicate of Philadelphia, which also owns the elec. tric light and gas plants of East St. louis, and the street railway systems at Alton and Belleville. The company has a 50-year ‘contract, made in 1903, for the exclusive use of the Eads Bridge for electric railway purposes. — The East St. Loufs cars, and some of the Suburban cars, are operated to the west end of the Eads Bridge approach on the St..

From information received from the Clinton prison, officials have learned that such an exchange was ac- complished th@re.

Goodbye.’’ Miss Dickmann told her mother be- fore she left her home, at 3446 Halli- day avenue, Tuesday morning, that she intended to spend the day with her friend, Miss Mayme Hahn.

Are President Taft’s addresses on his present junket public documents in the legal sense of the term or campaign speeches? ' The question is suggested by the “franking” of his principal speeches, to the newspapers served by the press associations and bureaus. It is an interesting question. The combination of the Government “frank” with the stamp of the press service is a novelty. The franking privilege is limited to printed and other matter jof an official character relating to public service, Presidential messages, proclama- tions and orders touching public business un- doubtedly belong to the pub. doc. class. Ad- dresses direct to the people by the Presi- dent as “a steward of the public welfare” were not contemplated by the builders of the Republic There is no provision for them in the Constitu- tion or laws, but they are not prohibited. They have grown out of the exigencies of politics. If the President desired to address the people from the seat of government in his official capacity, such utterances might properly be classed as pub- lic documents, Congressmen have stretched the franking privi- lege. They have uséd it to burden the mails with various articles, from seéds to shirts and pickles to pants. They have sent out congressional speeches for their own personal and political purposes. Political committees have abusec the privilege to send speeches and documents to voters. But in these cases the speeches and other _ campaign material were original public documents, sent by official persons. Protests have been made against such practices as scandalous abuses of an official privilege. But can a flood of presidential oratory deliv- ered at country fairs, banquets, luncheons, re- ceptions and from car platforms on a host of sub- jects, be regarded as public documents?

The speeches for the most part are political.} They are personal defenses of presidential acts and. policies. .They are delivered the year before the presidential election, in which the President expects to be a candidate. The speeches inclosed in a “franked” envelope bear the stamp of press bureaus. They are sent as news service. They are mailed in advance of delivery. | The American people are considerate of and generous with their presidents. In addition to their salaries they have an allowance of $25,000 for traveling expenses. No questions are asked. But is the use of the Government frank to dis- tribute speeches to newspapers in the name of press bureaus proper? Is it strictly honest and honorable? Is it dignified? Is it a good example? Mr. Taft is an honest, honorable, high-minded man. _ What is his own opinian of the practice? i i California adopted all of the progressive ccn- stitutional amendments—the initiative, referen- dum and recall—except one—woman's suffrage. Perhaps the influence of the women in the homes was stronger than the influence of the women on the stump. THE NEW WRIGHT EXPERIMENTS. Those who witnessed the gradual descent of Brooking, after he had shut off his motor, last week, will appreciate the possibility of Wilbur Wright’s proposed “buzzard flyer,”’ which he briefly suggested in Tuesday's Post-Dispatch. When the aviator’s motor is shut off he glides. But on account of the great weight of plane and engine, he must glide continuously downwards. _ It appears to be the aim of the Wright brothers to so lighten the plane that, once it is in the ‘air, it will glide as a kite does, without mechan- -ieal impulse, the motor being necessary only if the downward glide is too steep. But the greatest ... problem, of course, is strength with stability. a The People’s League promised something better in place of the charter it defeated.. Now it prom- ises to transform the free bridge into a monu- ment of folly—the league's folly. = — = —_— = a THE HOME OF FINE HORSES.

How- ever, I have very often permitted several cars to pass by me at the Third street loop of the Page line for the reason that women were sitting alone in the three rear seats when they could just as easily have taken other seats. This is what I found on three rides today: the Page line about 9 a. m., five women in the smokers’ seats, when they could have found 12 other seats. At 1p. m., one woman got on a prac- tically empty Delmar-Olive car at Broadway and promptly chose a snug corner in the long seat at the rear end of the car—she was still there when I got off at Euclid avenue, not to mention several others on the same trip. At 4p. m., ona Delmar-Olive east-bound car, I was seated in a smoker’s seat when presently I was joined by a respectable-looking middle-aged woman who got on at Taylor and Olive street.

If I succeed, what matters the time?’ He passed another whole month in propping .up the inside of the well with wood, and, having secured his work, began to dig anew. On the fifteenth day of the_ third month Hafiz, urged by Halima, deter- minea to make a last effort with that headstrong nephew who continued to cherish a foolish hope after his uncle had set him the example of wisdom and resignation.. To preach to Abdallah Was not an easy task; the well was a:- ready 30 cubits deep and the workman was at the bottom. Hafiz threw himself on the ground and, putting his mouth to the edge of the hole, shouted, “‘You headstrong child, more stubborn than a mule, have you sworn to bury yourself in this accursed well?” 2 “Since you are there, uncle,’’ answered Abdallah, in a voice which seemed to come from the bottomless pit, ‘will you be kind qnesey to draw up the pannier and empty it, to save time? ‘Unhappy-boy!” cried Hanz, in a tone more of anger than pity, “have you for- gotten the lessons which I gave you in your childhood? Mave you_so little re- spect for your mother and me-that you persist in afflicting us? Have y for- gotten the beautiful saying of the Koran. ‘Whoso is preserved from the covetousness of his own soul, he shall surely prosper? Do vou think"—— Hafiz sprang to the rope, and well it was for him that he did so, for, despite all his haste he brought up his nephew covered with mud, senseless; and half . The water was rushing and boiling up in the well. Abdatlah soon came to himself and listened with de- light to the rushing of the water; his heart beat violently, and Hafiz's eyes filled with tears. Suddenly the noise ceased. Hafiz lighted a handful of dry grass and threw it into the well and less than ten paces from the surface he saw the water, smooth and glittering ay steel.

TEACHER SILENCES ‘OBJECTORS TO HER

Asked Discharge of ‘‘Mur- _ derer’s Daughter.”

HER LOYALTY WINS THEM

In Speech She Tells Them Salary Is Only Means of Employ- ing Lawyers.

WHEATFIELD, Ind., Oct. 1L—Miss Grace Poole is again devoting her entire energy to the welfare of the epublic school pupils here, undisturbed by sug- gestions \that she should be discharged because her father is charged with mur- der. Such a demand was made upon the School Board and bid fair te dispiace her as a teacher, but Miss’ Poole, who has assumed the burden of her father’s defense, called a meeting of the tax- payers of the district and presented her side of the case with such heart interest that she not only has retained her posi- tion but she has the sympathy of every family in the schoo) district. And when the time. comes, it is likely that any financial assistance she may need be- yond her salary and savings will be forthcoming from her friends here. The trial of her father, John W. Poole, indicted for the murder of Joseph Kem- per, a farmhand, whose body was found buried on the Poole farm, has been set for Nov. 13, at Lafayette, Ind. Miss Poole is standing by her father though all other members of the family have deserted him. She declares that he is mentally unbalanced and not re- sponsible for anything that he may have done. However, sh does not believe that he murdered Kemper Gave Up School Werk. The young woman was starting on @ special course of study at Chicago Uni- versity to prepare herself for the pro- fession of teaching when the Fowler tragedy occurred. After her father’s ar- rest, she thought it best to give up her course at the university and return home to.do what she could for her par-

It was then that Grace came to the front and declared that she would pro- ide the money for her father’s défense. She obtained a position as teacher at Wheatfield and her work was so satis- factory that the School Board engaged ner for another year. She returned last month to resume work.

The opposition openly demanded that she be discharged as they believed she could not accomplish much with pupils when she was constantly being pointed out as the daughter of a ‘’murderer.” But this did not break her spirit. She went to those who were the strongest in their objections to her and made perscnal appeals to them. “] am Innocent.” ‘I’m entirely imnocent of any ef- fense,”” she told them. “It is wreng to hold me responsible for the conduct of my father.”’ She then called a public meeting of the patrons and addressed them from the platform. “My dear friends,’’ she said. “This man is my father and I honestly be- lieve that he is innocent of the charge against him. I love him and I belleve it would be criminal tn me not to stand by him in his trouble when all others have deserted him. I believe that it is my duty to give him all the support possible, but if you discharge me from my position I will have no way of rais- ing the $600 needed for his defense.

J., Oct. 11.—The whale washed up on Ocean City’s beach several days ago is proving to be 4 Jonah to the town, particularly when there is an ocean breeze. The two coastguards who captured it held out for too high a price and finally didn’t sell the huge carcass at all, although officers of a Philadelphia institution wanted it.
