Elsewhere in thig issue ig a complete exposi- tion of the plan to erect a statue to Thomas | Jefferson in the city of New York, as provided in the will of the late Joseph Pulitzer. Mr. Pulitzer, in his will, set aside the sum of $25,000 for this purpose. He thought there ought to be a great statue of Jefferson, as he expressed it, in “the foremost Democratic city of the New Re- public. The $25,000 ig to be the nucleus of sum, at least twice this amount, which-Mr. Pul- itzer hoped would be contributed by the people who cherish the principles expounded by Jeffer- son ahd who revere his mémory. He wanted the statue to express the great regard of the American people for Mr. Jefferson and their ad- miration for hig work. The Louisiana Purchase Exposition brought to St. Louis a splendid memorial of Thomas Jef- The building at the De Baliviere en- trance to Forest Park, with its statue of Jeffery gon by Karl Bitter, is the first adequate recog- nition in monumental form of the work of Thomas Jefferson. With this exception there is no Jefferson monument worthy of the name north of Mason and Dixon’g line. Certainly New York should have'the memorial contemplated by Mr. Pulitzer. The revival of the Democratic party and the a larger ' reawakening of the popular mind to the im- portance of the principles expounded by Jeffer- son make the present time peculiarly propitious for the completion of the fund. Every thorough Democrat regardless of party affiliations should aid the plan. It will be worth while to have a part, no matter. how small, in the building of this memorial.

The violated pledge to Senator La Folleite not to run hasn’t even the extenuation of the pitiful “eonsecutive”’ quibble. a Ae — Sa NEW INCOME-TAX MEASURE. The decision of House Democrats in caucus to pass, after the analogy of the franchise tax on corporations, an “excise” tax on the excess of all incomes over $5000 is sound and commendable. No other tax is as just and equitable. The admission of Arizona and New Mexico makes the assent of six more states necéssary to the ratification of the income-tax amendment to the Federal Constitution, 30 states having al- ready ratified it. Time will be saved if legisla- tion is had on the subject at the same time that Constitution-amendment is proceeding.’ Real tariff reform cannot be obtained without the creation of new sources of revenue. The joint resolution of July 5, 1909, if rat- ified, will remove all doubt as to the legality of the “excise” tax. If not ratified, legality will have a further chance for affirmation before the Supreme bench, on which but one man now sits |who participated in the amazing 5 to 4 decision declaring the income tax of 1894 invalid. ——_ -— — — The Missouri Supreme Court rules that barber schools are colleges. werercal branch of academics, no doubt.

THE ‘'‘NEUROTICS.’’ Nothing is more valuable in politics than the ability to condense issues into definition which makes the main point cleat and at the same time clears away from it everything which oth- erwise would confuse the issue. The faculty of doing this is rare. Perhaps no one would suspect: President Taft of having it. Perhaps, he himself may be surprised that in his habitual use of a copious vocabulary, he has struck in one single word, a Clear, unmis- takable and decisive definition of the issue he is to meet in the struggle with Roosevelt and the Third-termers for the Republican norhination. When, just before “‘the Colonel” announced that his “hat was in the ring,” President Taft re- ferred in a far off way tq the Roosevelt faction ae under “neurotic” control, he defined an issue, and in doing so defined. the only explanation his- tory ‘will be able to accept of the dominant in- fluence in the control of a decade of political history. . Beyond question, the influence: which the Col- onel represents with his hat in the ring is neurotic rather than-intellectual or moral, Judg- ment, reason, the faculties of mind, developed in civilization as intellectual faculties, gained from experience since the Stone Age, have nothing more to do with the “Roosevelt influence”. now than they had in controlling the Stone Age itself. Against the Neurotics of his own party, Presi- dent Taft has-the advantage of control over his own nerves, greatly superior to theirs. He has asked the question of whether the Government of the United States ought to be surrendered to the element of the Republican party which can- not prevent itself from being controlled by its own excitable nerves. The Neurotics have an- swered with the Hat in the Ring. = = rr If the New York Legislature passes that anti- tipping law, what will become of the Great White Way and its lobster palaces? Pe ee wre VICTIM OF‘‘OVER EDUCATION.’’ W. Royneck, a 27-year-ofd Russian musician, could play Chopin and Mendelssohn and Ruben- stein, but could not play rag-time. His repertory made no hit in St. Louis picture show houses, and when intense dissatisfaction was caused by it even at the ew, town of Columbis, he ssa himself. No doubt his fate will furnish a text pare which further to expound the fatuity of “over-education.” But having mastered some of the higher attain- ments in his art, why would it have not been easy for him, with proper application—why ‘would it not be easy for others of the ‘“‘over-educated”—

He did not know much then about the cornet-a-piston, but he glad- ly turned his hand to the work. No doubt, in seeking orchestral effects later, he found the technique he acquired useful to him, just as the Russian might have found rag-time useful. > 7

P. ‘LEADERS FALL OUT, The quarrel between “Dear Will’ and “Dear Theodore” may have been dué to slights put on the latter and his friends by the, former in se- lecting his Cabinet. Or it may have been due to the former’s acknowledgment of greater obliga- tion to Brother C. P. Taft than to the latter. It may have been helped on by President Taft’s re-

outing shirt to head an invasion of Mexico and by the reference to Mr. Roosevelt in the Govern- ment’s bill of complaint against the Steel Trust. Whatever the cause and however interesting, it was comparatively trivial, whereas the probable effects are of great moment. Blaine, Republican- ism’s leader of greatest personal brilliancy and charm, quarreled years ago with Conkling, and Blaine lost in the convention of 1880. Garfield, whose nomination subordinated the feud, won at the polls by 214 to 155 votes in the Electoral College, but by only 7018 popular plurality. The Yeud was renewed when Blaine was nominated in 1884, and in consequence of the party split the Democrats won at. the polls by 219 to 182 votes in the Electoral College and 62,683 popular plur- ality. Blaine quarreled in 1892 with Harrison, his se- lection for President in 1888, who had won that year by 233 to 168 votes in the Electoral College and 98,017 popular plurality. The 1892 split in the party, due ts ihe Blaine-Harrison quarrel, en- labled the Democrats to win that year by 277 to 145 votes in the Electoral College and a popular plurality of 380,810, the greatest but one up to that time since the Civil War. The quarrel between the Republican who is now President and the Republican who was for- merly President threatens a bigger split in the party this year than any in its history. —_- — —— oe- A receipt for the rent for a flat other than his home led.to a bigamy charge against a Chicagoan.

The Postoffice Department is self- sustaining.. Parcels post, which will be experi- j mentally introdueéd July 1, will make it highly profitable. Both the commission and President Taft regard the low rate of postage for newspapers and peri- odicals as a justifiable means of encouraging the distribution of literature, news and pictorial art. Neither Mr. Taft nor the commission suggests that a reduction be made in the excessive and enormous payments to railroads for carrying mails. They propose to continue this vast “un- earned subsidy to the railroads, and reimburse the Postoffice Department for its extravagant outlay for railroad purposes by arbitrarily imposing on publishers a double tax for the distribution, of their publications. In 1908 the Postoffice Department paid the rail- roads $44,267,507.13 for carrying mails. Of this. 50.6 per cent was for secbnd-class mail. Receipts from second-class postage amounted to $6,950,- 506.75. Had the receipts been doubled they would have been only about 60 per cent of the outlay. But—and here’s the injusfice—the railroads car- ried mails from 1878 until 1907 under a schedule of rates that were never reduced in all that time. ‘The average weight of mail on each route is fixed by weighing every four years. No business con- cern would ever enter into such a one-sided, un- businesslike contract for shipment of goods. The half-hearted change already made by the Postoffice Department has reduced the payments to railroads by something more than $3,000,000 a year. The commission’s own report admits that efficlént readjustment would save $9,000.000 more, = = + — A Chicagoan has been arrested on a charge of selling an oil that would render anyone smeared with it invisible.

A MEMORIAL TO THOMAS JEFFERSON, From the New York World. Nowhere in the North is there an adequate mem- erial to Thomas Jefferson, whose influence upon American institutions far surpassed that of any other man. More than a hundted years have elapsed since Jefferson retired from the presidency and from active public life. Nearly 75 years have elapsed since his death Yet Jefferson is still a living, vital force in the American government. He lives not through the fofce of his personality, not through the. force of his achievements, but through the force of his ideas and his ideals, He was the great standardizer of the constitutional democracy, and his principles must-.persist as long as men believe in a government of the people, by the people, for the people. Mr. Joseph Pulitzer in his will gave the sum of $25,000 to his executors to erect a statue of Thomas Jefferson in the city of New York, “the feremost democratic city of the New Republic.” Mr. Pulitzer expressed the hope that the public might unite with him in erecting this memorial by’ contributing an equal sum through popular sub- scription, It was his desire that this statue should itself be a manifestation of democracy—not the gift of one-man, but the gift of many men as a tribute to the author of the Declaration of Inde- pendence and the indefatigable cnampion of repub- lican institutions. The executors of the will have expressed the be- lief that the work of interesting the public in this memorial can best be done by the newspaper which Mr, Pulitzer made an unwavering advocate of Jeffersonian principles. It is a task that the World gladly assumes. To this end a Thomas Jefferson Memorial Fund has been organized, with the Hon. William J. Gay- nor as chairman, Among the members of this committee are the Democratic Governor of New York, the Democratic Governor of Connecticut, the Democratic’ Governor of Maine, the Democratic Governor of Massachusetts, the Democratic Goy- ernor of Ohio and the Democratic Governor of Virginia, the State that gave Jefferson to the na- tion, It seems peculiarly appropriate to the World that the work of erecting the memorial should be undertaken this year, when the political party which Jefferson founded is entering upon a new career of national usefulness, and when the theo-

DUTIES OF NEWSPAPERS. From the San Francisco Call. An important series of victories for freedom of the press was concluded last week in Missouri by a judgment in favor of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, which appears to have been made a target for libel suits brought by offieials and politicians. As to the purpose of these suits, the St. Louis paper says “they represented an effort to muzzle not only the Post- Dispatch, but the entire press of Missouri. They were @ menacing assault on the mission and right of newspapers.” In one of these suits the paper was sued for libe) for publishing certain criticism of the Secretary of State because he neglected to close an insolvent bank. In this case the Missouri Supreme Court de- fined the-duty of a newspaper as follows: “It is the duty of a public newspaper, such as is owned and conducted by these defendants, to tell the people, its subscribers, its readers, the facts that it may find out about public questions or/matters iraw inferences from the facts known, to draw them for the people.”’ In another case the paper was sued for publication the opinion of the Attorney-General concerning tows of Jaw on one of. the racetracks and a third suit was founded on the publication of a re- port made by postoffice inspectors, on which was ‘pased a fraud order against a banking institution. In all these suits the paper was. vindicated, and it wes held that the several publications were made in the line of duty, “The litigation appears to have ‘From the Boston Transcript.

MRS, STOR OBEYS ORDER COURT. MOURNING

GNORED BY “TITLED WOMEN

Though Duchess of Rutland and Queen Alexandra's Secretary Do Not Deem It Necessary to Dress in Weeds of Sorrow. for Late Duke of Fi fe, American Woman Goes the Limit—Mrs. West Ex- pects to Make $150,000 Out of “Shakspeare’s London.’ Special Wireless Dispatch to the Post-Dispatch. Copyright, 1912, by Press Pub. Co. (New York World.) LONDON, March 2.—Mrs. Ava Astor gave a luncheon party at the Ritz Hotel this week at which she wore black—dress, hat and all. On be- ing asked for whom she was in mourning she told her guests that she was wearing court mourning for the Duke of Fife, as ordered in the official Gazette. The Duchess of Rutland, who was with her, was russet and white. Mrs Tenry Lindsay also wore colors. Even Sir Sid- ftp: Greville, Queen Alexandria’s private secretary, did not think it necessary to wear mourning. The Duchess of Marlborough has been about a gv0d deal lately, especially to theatrical pre- mieres, at which she always occupies a box and usually is accompanied by Mrs. George West, for- mérly Jennie Jerome of New York, and a couple of literary men. Robert Hichens was with her Tuesday night at the Criterion, when Robert Loraine produced a comedy by an anonymous au- thor. Her home for prisoners’ wives was broken into the other night and a good deal of damage was done. . If Mrs. George West's “Shakspeare’s London” at Earl’s Court meets her expectations, she will realize $150,000 for herself, for she does not con- ‘ tribute all her ideas business knowledge and la- bor for nothing. The whole scheme was origi- nated by her and she had taken full charge of the administration and the organization in all its de- partments, making her headquarters at the Shaks- peare Theater in Whitehall. Mrs. West’s Elaborate Shakspeare Exhibit. Everything is being done on the most approved business lines, and Mrs. West is so enthusiastic she inspires all] who work under her to prodigious labor The exhibition, as has been explained in these dispatches before, is to reproduce in the Earl’s Court grounds a counterpart of London at the time of Shakspeare—streets, shops, costumes, entertainments and the general life of the ‘dme. ie Seymour Lucas, R. A., is to help in the artistic part and is going to build a galleon exactly like one of the Spanish treasure ships Sir Francis Drake captured from the Armada. Drake sailed into Plymouth Sound with a number of captured treasure ships, one of which had golden chalices fastened at the helm, the prow and the mast tops, so’ much plunder had he captured. A reproduced Spanish galleon is therefore to lie upon the water at Earl’s Court, and the public will be admitted aboard at 25 cents a head. Edwin Lutyens the architect whose wife is Lord Lytton’s sister (Lady Emily Luytens), Is un- dertaking the whole of the picturesque buildings, houses, streets and “shoppes” of “ShakSpeare’s London” which will be copied from the best Tudor ‘models in existence. ‘There will be a loan collection of portraits under the auspices of Capt. Sir Seymour Tortesque, ‘treasurer of the Shakspeare National Theater, who is having lent him many very valuable and interesting pictures and portraits of the period of Shakspeare, Queen Elizabeth and the other great personages of the day. Mrs, West plans to let the “shoppes” to the leading French and English jewelers, dressmak- ers, modistes, and the like, and so have the best and most attractive wares there—“no rubbishy : cecal stuff,” \ | wes ne eeme am £ MRS.

The American colony was well represented. King Albert went the other day to pay a visit: to an old soldier who lives in Arquennes, a village five miles from Brussels. It was the old. man’s one hundred and third birthday and what interested the King in him was that he was one of the combatants fh 1830 when the Belgians fought the Dutch, who reigned over them, and when they ‘won their in- dependence.

The restaurant will be run on the lines of the old Amphytrion and the cooking, service and sur- roundings will be of the first order. tr The Marchioness of Ripon, who was taking an active part with Mrs. West in organizing the “Shakspeare’s London” show, has been obliged to drop everything and retire for treatment to the now famous sanitarium at Lausanne. She suffers from what fashionable doctors call “a small liver,” an ailment which is gradually supplanting in the smart set the now vulgarized appendicitis. Miss Emily Yznaga is at the same sanitarium undertaking a cure to stave off an operation for appendicitis. Surgeons have told her more than once that she had incipient appendicitis and ad- vised the usual operation, but she declines to be- lieve them and is having this cure instead. Ellen Terry’s sixty-forth birthday brought her numerous good wishes and a host of visitors, American as well as English. She received wi h her marvelous charm and vivacity that seem never to fade. She looks, talks and acts like a woman of 30, and entered into the spirit of her birthday celebration with the delight of a girl of 20. She says the secret of srebeuvias one’s mental and physical energies is “work and\interest in life.”

Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch and New York World. Copyright, 1912, by Press Pub. Co. (New York World.) PARIS, March 2.—According to a story published in the Paris newspapers miraculous cures have been effected by a poor sewing girl, who proclaims herself a disciple of a hermit known in Northern France as Father Antoine. This sewing girl, Mile. Camus, lives in a single room in a dark court of the poorer quarters of Paris and to this room flock many who have heard of her healing. In the neighborhood it } that she has effected no less than forty cures in the last two months, although’ she continued at her occupation of sewing, devoting only her leisure, hours to receiving sufferers, to whom she makes no charge. Mile. Camus says she knows nothing about occult science. Her procedure is simple. She tells a suf- ferer to think earnestly of Father Antoine, whom she calls the Regenerator of Humanity, while she tells the patient of Antoine’s life and works of charity. She says she can feel the ills and pains leaving the body of a patient and entering her own. She suffers agony but is fortified by her faith. After two or three visits the ailment disappears entirely, leaving, according to witnesses, no trace in either healer or patient. The reports have caused considerable excitement in the quarter where Mile. Camus lives. Many poor go to her in perfect faith. Although Mile. Camus is a disciple of Father Antoine, she says she has never seen him, but his work has been revealed to her in a vision. —

Two reasons may be assigned for this. Th: redec- oration undertaken for the visit of King George and Queen Mary last July greatly enhanced the beauty of the hall.

FEATHERS SEEM SUPREME IN WEEK’S PLAY TITLES

But ‘‘Chantecler’’ Alone Really Wears Them, “Night. Birds’’ Being Merely Bats, You Know—The , Durbar in Kinemacolor Pictures, -

Maude Adams, playing the title role in Edmond Rostand’s poetic allegory, “Chantecler,” begins at the Olympic Theater tomorrow evening an engage- ment which constitutes the most impor- tant event of the season. The Rostand play is itself the greatest stage novelty of its generation. Very much in the spirit of the clear-visioned Aesop of ancient times, Rostand em- ploys the figures of the feathered and four-footed things of the animal crea- tion to point its human moral. In his performance of so daring a task in these modern and less imaginative days, he also tells a dramatic story of consider- able power, ranging from comedy to tragedy, and at all moments true in characterization. The noteg,of homeli- ness and of high poetic inspiration alike are sounded. The play’s teaching is that of conse- cration to gne’s work in life. It is very effectively conveyed through the me- dium of Chantecler himself. The barn- yard cock knows that God has created him for the best possible performance of a certain mission. His error lies in his own proud exaggeration of the im- portance of this .mission. He believes that the sup itself could not rise, save at the commanding call.of his own clarion crowing. He is disillusioned as to his value in the scheme of things entire. Then, finely facing the truth that there are others greater than he, and that his own duty is merely that of heralding the sun’s rising and of awakening a sleep- ing world at the day’s dawning, he de- votes himself as faithfully to this hum- bler task as though it were the majes- tle mandate to the sun which once he thought it to be. Rostand’s play opens with a prologue spoken by Miss Adams before the cur- tain rises, which, explaining the ab- sence of all humans from the scene and kindling the imaginations of the audi- ence, creates the atmosphere necessary to the fullest enjoyment of the story. The curtain then rises upon the famous barnyard picture of the first act. Thenceforward, through this first act and onward to the second, which shows a hifiside overlooking a valley, the ac- BUILDS UP THE THIN AND WEAK Samose Makes Thin People Fat, or Wolff-Wilson Drug Oo.

tion of oes. Then follows the masterpiece oetic fancy contained in thé mar- -velous incidents attendant upon the re- ception given by the parvenue Guinea Hen in a corner of the kitchen garden, and the play closes with the beautiful forest scene of the final act, wherein poor Chantecler, under the taunting of his temptress, the lovely Hen Pheasant, learns the two humiliating truths, that the Nightingale’s song is sweeter than his, and that the sun doesn't by any means await his own song before rising. The story is a splendid fable set in drama. » Charles Frohman gives the play 4 memorable pictorial production, to which, it is said, the Olympic’s big stage lends itself admirably. Over 70 players take part in the performance, imper- sonating the many animal creation figuring in the allegory. Seven presentations of ‘‘Chantecler’’ will be given in St. Louis, the only matinee being that of Saturday. The curtain rises promptly at 8 in the evening and 2 in the afternoon, folloging the pro- logue spoken by Miss Adams. The audi- ences should be seated five minutes be- fore the rise of the ¢urtain. Fritzi Scheff in “Night Birds,”” the English version, now first heard in this country, of Johann Strauss’ famous comic opera, ‘‘Die Fledermaus,’’ will begin a week’s engagement at the Shu- bert tomorrow evening. In its German version the work was first produced in 1874, and has become a world-popular classic during the intervening 38 years. | The score of “‘Night Birds’’ is enriched with “the waltz king’s’’ most charming waltzes, polkas, czardas, romanzag and drinking songs.

‘By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, March 2.—Policeman Wilbur J. Kennedy of the Mercer Street ‘Btation, going off his post at Broadway ana Eleventh street just before mid- hight, stopped to watch for a minute the string of human derelicts in the bread _ time in front of Fleischmann’s bakery. _ His attention was attracted by an au- » temobile coming down a lonely stretch of Broadway. With the quick sound- ing of brakes the car swung over te the Bidewalk and stopped alongside the eurb. “Officer,” called a woman's voice, “we need your help.” Kennedy walked back to the car. The ehauffeur and the footman, standing . alert at the door, were dressed in gray fur coats, Inside sat-a woman about 60 years old, and beside her a younger woman, who, Kennedy seid, was about 25 SF years old. ba - Were Giving Birthday Party. Z “We are giving a birthday party,” the young woman explained, smiling at the surprised policeman. “You see,’ she continued, “I thought at first of giving @ dinner party to my friends. Then I thought how much better it would be to ye a dinner party to the poor “I want to feed every man here,” she said, indicating the long line of un- fortunates with a sweep of her hand. “So ,ou see I want your help, for I'm | «afraid some ef the more anxious men ‘ will not be willing to await their turn. ‘ Kennedy took them first to the man in charge of Fleischmann's, and explained their mission. Both women refused to give their names. i ‘oth walked back te the car and pro- ' dueed two small black bags. Under Kennedy's directions they started at the top of the line. a “My friend,”. said the young women, | *{ want you to have dinner with mé.’ : The man addressed, a big fellow, | jerked off a battered hat and ducked + his head. | Glick went the black bag and it

the other five wards, dominated by the foreign element, it is nearly all land- lordism. The standard of living among the for- eigners varies widely as to their ideals and aspirations. If they have aban- doned the purpose to return to Europe to end their days, they are quick to imitate American ways of living. One foreign banker in McKeesport transmits abroad for the steel-working clients up- ward of $500,000 a year, and he estimates that the drain from this city alone is more chan $1,000,000 a year, counting how it is sent, to maintain relatives in Eu- rope or to be applied to mortgages on peasant farms, or to be banked together ‘with the cash carried back by returning immigrants. The Post-Dispatch correspondent found admirable examples of ricanization among Magyars d Ziavs dnd Poles, but these cases a ceptional. Gne of the best-kept foreign homes visited was that of a Magyar who earns $2 a day jn the tube mill. The budget for neces- saries runs: Rent, $8 for three rooms; coal, $1.25; fuel gas, $1.26 (natural gas used generally in place of coal); food, $30. The wife has a sewing machine and makes all her own dresses. An Americanized Hungarian. In the same row of tenements the Post-Dispatch correspondent found an- other Hungarian who has been 10 years in thigggountry, The oldest of his three children is in school. The youngsters are rosy-cheeked and sturdy, and one would have to look closely to distinguish them from children of any American workingman. This Magyar has mas- tered English and pushed himself ahead in the mill until he has a job as strip- per at $3 a day. His work is to remove the molds from steel ingots while they are redhot. The work is all done by ma- chinery and is neither so hot nor so hazardous as the furnace jobs. When the rest day order became ef- fective this man drew Tuesdays off. On Sundays, his. work is light and pays only $1.60, so his weekly income is $16.60, of this family $9 three-room tenement are wet and the windows frozen shut. Natural gas for heating and lighting costs an average of $2.50 a month.. The housewife keeps careful accounts and brings the grocery bill within $17 in the winter and $20 in summer and the meat bN1l within $16. They buy three to four pints of milk daily for the three chil- dren. A striking example of Americaniza- tion is a Magyar family in McKeesport —father, mother and nine children. The children have gone through the grades and some of the girls to the high school. All of the, unmarried children live at home andpturn their earnings in the mill into the family treasury. By co- operation they have paid for a comfort- able home, furnished it according to the best American standards, and they are &lHi saving money. But where one such foreign steel worker is found there are scores, if not hundreds, subsisting without milk, but- ter or eggs, and crowding into squalid tenements as closely as the health offi- cers will permit. One of the most intelligent Slav workers encountered in the tube mills eccupies a responsible position and earns an average of $2.50 a day. He said he had been unable to maintain his wife and four children in McKees- port and save any money, so he sent them -back to the old eountry, where he expects to join them in a few years. Another Slav, earning $1.90 a day and paying $9 rent for three rooms in a waterless, heatless, lightless frame shanty in an untidy alley,~was contriv- ing to save by such economies as buy- ing a live hog for $10 and paying the butcher $2 for killing and dressing it. In cold weather he can keep the meat supply in a corner of the bedroom. This method of wholesale purchasing is com- mon among the working people of the Pittsburg district. One butcher in an outlying borough near Homestead makes a specialty of this trade. “Here is one element in the cost of living,”’ said a Pittsburg wholesaler, “for which there is no just defense. Olee or butterine, is taxed by the Govern- ment 10 cents a pound, while 1 cent would pay all the expense of inspection and enforcement of the law, It is against the law to color oleo for sale. That is intended to prevent. retailers selling it for butter. The retailer makes a practice of giving coloring tablets with each oleo sale, and the housewife or boarding boss or restaurant keeper doc- tors it to suit. But when farmers have been getting this winter faucy prices for country butter I have known of their calling every week at the oelo store and buying 10 pounds of/ substitute. I don’t believe they eat it themselves.”’ Rents Higher in Homestead. In Homestead rents are 20 to 33. per cent higher than in McKeesport, while Wages are the same, both being Steel Trust towns. In the foreign quarter ad- joining the Carnegie Steel Co.’s plant there are rows of brick and frame houses both in the streets and alleys. The three-room tenements facing the streets rent for $12 a month. Houses in the al- leys are generally of two rooms, and bring $7.50 if they have water in the kitchen, and $6 and $6.50 if the water supply is in the yard, Americans, who occupied this quarter almost exclusive- ly at the time of the great Homestead strike in 1892, have moved back on the hill sides. The town is well paved, sew- ered and lighted, and its Board of Health has succeeded in eliminating the Homestead people are, in fact, proud of their civie awakening, and exceedingly resentful of the pictures of family and commenity life drawn by the Pittsburg Survey. “These reformers prate about ‘weak and anemic children,” exclaimed 4a prominent citizen, ‘children who ‘scarce- ly ever see the light of the sun.’ Why, we don’t want our children to have any sunshine .here, for when there is sun- shine it means the miiis are idle and the children go hungry. But the reform- ers Would find if they washed the soot off the children’s faces that they are as healthy a lot as can be found any- where.” be The prominent citizen was exaggerat- your | ing, but not so much as @ stranger

MONKS KEEP SILENCE VOW AS HOME BURNS Trappists Wave Arms to Give Alarm When Gethsemane Monastery Is Destroyed. Spectal to the Post-Dispatch, BARDSTOWN, Ky., March 2—The Kentucky monastery of the Trappist Monks at Gethsemane, 12 miles from Bardstown, is in ruins as a result of last night's fire. Faithful to his vow of silence, Broth- er Huber, who discovered the fire, gave no cry. Instead he threw a_ stone through a window to attract attention of the monks and students, who has- tened to Brother Huber in wonder. He poivted to smoke and flames rising from the kitchen and he and others ran through the monastery signaling with ftheir arms to all to leave the building. Seventy-five brothers. bound to per- petual and extreme poverty, chastity and everlasting silence, are homeless. Among the burned valuables are a Van Dyck and a canvas attributed tro Rubens.

$50,000 VERDICT FOR GAUS IN SUI FOR FALSE ARRESI Plaintiff Was Held on the Com- plaint of Forty-One Insur- ance Companies. HENLEY DEFENDANT, TOO Chief of Fire Prevention Bureau Denied He Ordered the Ac- cused Held. A verdict for $50,500 for Harry G. Gaus of 2244 East Athlone avenue was re- turned by a jury in Judge Grimm’s court yesterday against 41 fire insurance com- panies and H. C. Henley, chief of the St. Louis Fire Prevention Bureau, in the .$500,000 damage suit of Gaus for false arrest. The trial began Tuesday. The jury was out two hours, return- ing its verdict at 6 p. m. Actual dam- ages of $20,000 and punitive damages of $30,500 were voted by nine of the jurors. Gaus was superintendent of the H. Gaus & Sons Manufacturing Co., which was destroyed by fire April 8, 1909. He Was arrested by Detective Finan a month later, after an investigation of the fire by Chief Henley of the Fire Prevention Bureau. He remained ‘n a cell over night and was released cn bond the next day. No charge was ever placed against him and the case was abandoned. Denied by Henley. In his suit Gaus alleged that his arrest was caused by Henley, acting for the defendant insurance ~*~ companies,’ in which the Gaus company carried iasur- ance. This was denied by both Henlcy and the companies. Henley said that he merely investigatad the cause of the fire and that he only reported tho result of his investigation to the police. He declared he did not ask that Gaus pe arrested. The insurance companies made the defense that Henley’s instructions were to make an investigation only and that if he caused anyone’s arrest é was not atting within the s¢cépe~ s“ageéicy. H. M. Blossom, president of the bu- reau, testified the investigation was not made for the purpose of finding a crimi- nal, but to ascertain why a plant that contained the latest fire prevention ap- paratus should be destroyed. A section of pipe containing & wood plug and rags, which Henley said he removed from the Gaus plant after the fire, were used in evidence. There was no testimony as to who was responsible for this. Lost His Ambition. Gaus .testified that his arrest caused him extreme mortification. For a long time, he said it was diffi- cult for him to meet friends. He also lost his ambition, he said. He was held a police prisoner about ten hours. James H. Smith, detective chief at the time of his arrest, testified that he was unwilling to hold Gaus, but that Henley insisted he be locked up. “T still refused and did not order that Gaus be held until Assistant Cir- cult Attorney Davis instructed me to do so,” he said. “At the time Mr. Davis pronounced the arrest prema- ture.” Henley denied Smith’s testimony and was corroborated by former Chief of Police BE. P. Creecy, who tes- tified that when Henley turned the case over to him he was particular to say he had gone as far as he could with the investigation and that the matter rested with the police. Creecy said there was no request for an arrest. He said he placed the case In the hands of Chief Smith, who assigned two detectives on it. Gaus was’ represented by the law firm of Reynolds & Harlan, Chase Morsey and Horace L. Dyer. T. T. Fauntieroy and P. J. Cullen appeared for the defendants. The suit origi- nally was against 47 fire insurance companies, all in business in Mis- souri, but yesterday Gaus dismissed his suit as to‘six of the defendants. PITTSBURG GETS NEW SHOCK BY PLAYLET Some Call Clubman’s Not Only Scream but Raw. PITTSBURG, Pa., March 2.—The trev- esty -farce, “Even in Those Days,” called a “‘scream” by its author, Ewiug L. Rafferty, @ young clubman, was pro- duced tonight in the club of the Pitts- burg Athletic Association and, itn the opinion of many, it was even more of a scream than predicted, thought some thought it “raw.’’ The playlet was intended to convey an idea of low srafting, as it transpir.d in Pittsburg’s CHF Council and wonld have happened in Rome in the days of Trojan.

JUDGE CRITICISES TAFT: SETS BAGK SHUE TRUST CASE Throws Out Four of Five Counts in Indictments Against Machine Magnates.

CALLS COMBINE - VALID Cannot See Why President Per- mits Criminal Proceedings While Doubt Exists. By Associated Press. BOSTON, Mass., March 2.—The criminal proceedings of the Depart- ment of Justice against five officials of the United Shoe Machinery Co. re- ceived a setback today when Judge Putnam threw four of the five counts in the two indictments out of court, The remaining count, which the Government may press against Sidney W. Winslow, Edward P. Hurn, Elmer P. Howe and George W. Brown of Boston and William Bar- bour of New York, charges monopoly through the system of leases of pat- ent machinery. They will plead this charge next week. Judge Putnam held that the origi- aal combination of four companies was valid and “purely an economic arrangement” and sustained the com- pany’s demurrer to charges of con- spiracy te monopolize and restrain trade, “While in theory the respondents are chargeable, yet in fact the prac- tical application of «the Sherman anti-trust act is very uncertain,” said the Judge. “This makes it practi- cally so indefinite that criminal pros- ecutions like this impose great hard- ships by terrorizing very considera- ble portions of the community who have acted honestly, to the possible peril of enormous fines and terms of imprisonment. “Under the circumstances we are unable to understand why the De- partment ef Juaticé of the Untted States directs, and the President per- mits, criminal. proceedings like this until, in the particular case, the prac- tical application of the) statute has been settled by civil proceedings, in view especially of the fact that the flexible methods of a bill in equity are capable of exploiting all doubt- ful questions much more thoroughly and with more just results than criminal proceedings.” E. G. LEWIS GOES TO TRIAL TOMORROW Motion to Quash the Jury Panel Is Overruled by Judge. E. G. Lewis will go to trial Monday in the United States District Court on the charge of using the mails to defraud. A motion to quash the jury panel se. lected for the trial was made yesterday by Shepard Barclay, Lewis’ attorney, and was overruled by Judge Amidon. Before the arguments were made 91n the motion to quash, the prospective jurors were excused until 10:30 a. rn. Monday. The case would have gone to trial last Wednesday but for the pro- longation of thé Kimmel suit. The objection of the defendant's law- yer to the jury panel was on the ground that residents of St. Louis and St. Louis County were excluded. The exclusion was on the motion of District Attorney Houts, who urged that a feeling in Lewis’ favor existed among some resi- dents of the city and county. WOMAN GETS DYNAMITER

JOSEPH, Mo., March 2.—Captured through a woman detective, who trailed him to St. Joseph and caused his arrest, Thomas Maxwell today confessed, the police say, that he dynamited the opera house at Bedford, Io., the night of Dec. 31 last. | / Maxwell says he was paid/$25 for the dynamiting by an enemy of the opera house owner.

discharge, because he- disapproved of women acting as nurses! In his role as an heir of great expec- tations, Cheatham made the acquaint- ance of several young* women in. the West End. One,of them was Miss Lela Mayham, daughter of Mrs. Bh. B. May- ham of 4210 Washington boulevard, who had been a schoolmate of his mother. Others were Misses Josephine and Eliza- beth Smucker, daughters of Mrs. Bes- sie Smucker of the San Carlo Apart- ments, 6108 Delmar boulevard, to whom he was introduced by Miss Mayham, it is said,. during an excursion on the steamboat Alton. On coming to St. Louis about a year ago, Cheatham made the acquaintance of several schoolmates of his mother. Among these were Mrs. Mayham, Mrs. W. V. Power of 6114 Von Versen ave- nue, Samuel Lowenstein, an insurance agent; George Obermueller, employed as a cutter in a tailor shop at 615 Pine street, and Dr. Joseph P. Ghio of 5069 Delmar avenue. He engaged a room at 6111 Delmar avenue, across the street from the apartment in which the Smuck- er family lived. * RPosed as Heir. Whatever the devices by which he ob- tained funds from his downtown friends, Cheatham maintained the part of wealthy heir with his girl acquaintances, who say that he seemed to have plenty of money; that’ he dressed ‘well, and talked of purchasing ‘‘the biggest mov- ing picture show in town.”’ A, new tie of acquaintance with the Smucker family was established when Cheatham discovered that Miss Joseph- ine Smucker, like his sister, was a stu- dent in the convent at Arcadia. It was through his friendship with Obermuel- ler, from whom he had borrowed money. that the police obtained the clew whicn led them to Mississippi, At 8 p. m., about a half hour after the robbery of the pawnshop, Ober- mueller told the police, he met Cheat- ham in the vicinity of the office. Cheatham was carrying a black alliga- tor skin grip, and told Obermueller, he said, that he had realized a sum on his ing to that State to settle the remain- der of the property. On the way, he said, he intended to visit his brother Saw Stranger in Shop. George Marks, an employe in the Government assayer’s office, saw a young at work in the pawnshop. He entered to tell George Wurzburger | good-night, after his custom, and saw & stranger behind the counter. He asked.whether Wurzburger was in, sus-- pecting soa The stranger, Marks afterwards, lowered

Pa the meeting with Cheatham euff buttons had been pawned three times previously in the store and even recollected the features of the youth who pledged them. Through this investigation the trai: led directly to Cheatham. Wurzburger declines to tell whether he found Cheat- ham’s name on the registers of the pawned cuff-buttons, or whether he <e- called that Cheatham was an acquaint- ance of Obermueller. At any rate, the police investigation at.this point reached Obermueller, from whom they learned after the robbery and his statement that he was bound for Florida by way of Mis- sissippi. Used Fictitious Name, At the Stratford Hotel Cheatham rer- istered under an assumed name, and gave up his room the next morning. He slept within a block of the scene of the robbery he is alleged to have coi- mitted, while a futWe pursuit of the thief went on All about him. During his life in St. Louis, Cheat- ham’s behavior led many of his friends to fear that he was a victim of heredity. Because of “‘his peculiar actions,’’ Mrs. Power found it necessary to ask him to surrender the room he occupied for a time at her home. Lowenstein found him erratic and volatile, constantly building air castles, especially in the direction of projects for promoting stock companies, each of which he forgot the day after they were conceived. Story of His Life, The story of Cheatham’s life and par- entage, as disclosed to the police, is as follows: Twenty-two years ago Dr. Harry Cheatham, who had completed’ the course at Marion Simms Medical Cul- lege while working mornings and nights as a clerk for the Simmons Hardware Co., was married to Miss Theresa M:- Intyre in St. Bridget’s Church, Jeffer- son avenue and Dixon street. The couple lived for a few years noi far from the church, and there Sani- uel Cheatham, named after the best man at the wedding, was born. The physician’s practice did not prosper, and he removed to a small town near Pensacola, Fla., the name of which the police will, not: divulge, and set up a

] income from his practice. About five years ago Mrs. Cheatham, whose mind had become affected, was brought to St. Louis and placed in St. Vincent’s Asylum for the Insane. She died there soon afterwards. Three vears ago, as the son had related, Dr. Cheatham, while hunting in Florida, ac- cidentally knocked down his rifle, which was leaning against a fence. The weap- en was discharged, and the bullet en- tered his leg. The physician suffered from a weak heart, his son said, and died from the shock of the accident. Samuel, in his nineteenth year, came to St. Louls a year ago, and in all that time, yaccording to his acquaintances, had but one temporary job. This was soliciting advertisements -for gram of a moving picture show on Del- mar boulevard. For his livelihood he depended upon loans from his friends. Miss Ida Mayham, sister of Lela May- ham, denied last night a report current among mutual friends that Miss Lela Was engaged to Cheatham and broke the betrothal several weeks ago. Wurzburger died a week after he was shot, and in his only minutes of con- sciousness said merely: “He rushed me,”’ Can be apd ee la der ‘but take

DAVIDSON ~ SOARING AGAIN ~ INRAILROAD FIELD While Wife Sues for Divorce He Once More Takes a Start ‘Upward. A divorce sult charging desertion, which has been filed in the Circuit Court by Mrs. Earl Elliott Davidson against Alfred J. Davidson, has revealed the fact that the former president of the Frisco railroad, after the disaster of a mental and financial collapse, has be- gun with success, in his forty-ninth year, to recoup the career which led him from the ranks of _ railway service as a telegrapher to a high com- mand. His first rise was as a protege of Benjamin F. Yoakum; his busifess rejuvenation is being accomplished in the employment of the Spokane Port- land & Seattle Railroad, a property of James J. Hill. Davidson agcended in a comparatively few years from a telegraph operator to president of the Frisco system. When he resigned in the summer of 1910 ‘tu become vice-president of the American Creosoting Co. of Chicago, the directors of the railroad voted him a bonus of a year’s salary, $28,000. His salary in the creosote company was $380,000 a year, besides commissions, His Fall Spectacular. His fall was no less spectacular than his rise. After a week of prodigality in a Chicago hotel, during which his bills amounted to nearly $5000, he settled the account with a check for $2700, drawn on a St. Louis bank in which he had no account, and disappear¢l. A month later he was found roaming aimlessly through the streets in Chi- cago, penniless. He had scarceiy a rec- ollection of the hardships through which he had passed. In St. Louis creditors seized upon his household property, which Mrs. Davidson recovered b/ prov- ing that it belonged to her —~ In this extremity, a helping hand was extended to him by Carl R. Gray, who had been senior vice-president of the Frisco during Davidson's incumbency as president, and who had become presi- dent of the Hill railroad in Oregon. Gray settled the affair of the $2709 check, explaining that Davidson, in his mental confusion, had made an error in the name of the bank in which ne had funds, and placed him in a sanitariu™m. The story of his regeneration is told oy his friends here, When Davidson's health was restored, Gray offered him an opportunity to re- build his shattered career. He insisted that Davidscn should start again at the bottom and attempt, for a secon tine, to climb the ladder of success. The op- portunity was a place in Portlan), at $75 a month, about the sum Davidson received ver day as president cf the irisco. His Salary Doubled. With his mind freed from the clouds which had darkened it. Davidson's abiii- ties, regarded as among the most skill- ful in the transportation field of the country, swiftly displayed themselves. In a short time his salary was raised to $150 a month. And now other ad- vancements in salary and position are in sight so that his friends believe that it is merely a question of time before -~he retrieves the position he once held. Former associates in St. Louis, learn- ing of his success in Oregon, wished recently to recall him to this city and place him in one of the big railroad jobs. But Gray persuaded him to re- fuse the offer, and to adhere to the plan of working up again from the ranks, instead of regaining his place in one hasty bound. Davidson’s present occupation was re- vealed in a memorandum attached to his wife’s divorce suit by Attorney Thomas B. Harvey, which states that the defendant is in Portland and em- ployed by the Spokane, Portland & Seat- tle Railroad. Mrs. Davidson, the daugh.- ter of a railroad conductor at Yoakum, Tex., was the companion of his first rise. They were married Feb. 4 1891, the petition states. Wife Clever Hostess, Mrs. Davidson was a popular hostess and frequently entertained at .dinners in downtown restaurants, her guests often being women friends exclusively. The bills for these dinners and lunch- eons sometimes ran into surprising fig- ures, it is said. Mrs. Davidson is living at the Buck- ingham Annex, a short distance from the Aberdeen Apartments, 20 North King’s highway, where, her petition al- leges, her husband forsook her in May, 1910. MRS. HERCK RECOVERS

Mrs. Sabina Bornefeld Herck of 4026 Labadie avenue, and Miss Lillian Walk- er, 2900 Market avenue, East St. Louis, who tried to asphyxiate themselves with gas at Mrs. Herck’s home, yesterday morning, are reported out of danger at the city hospital. The young women were saved when Mrs. Herck’s husband smelled gas, and found them under a blanket which enveloped a gas grate. Mrs. Herek is 16 years old. She married John Herck after they had made a trip to the East and South with $2200 entrusted to the girl by her mother. Miss Walker is 18 years old. The two wrote an incoherent note, saying they

It is computed that by Monday 150,000 workers outside of the coal mines will be idle and each suc- cessive day the strike lasts will add ta this number. More than one million miners in England, Scotland and Wales are oyt. Shipping at many ports is ap- proaching a standstill and steam trawl- ers are laying up. That source of cheap fuel will soon be cut off.. Many foundries are already closed and others are preparing for a speedy shutdown. Three or four days will suffice for the stoppage of almost of all Sheffield steel works and within a week if the collieries do not resume, more than a million employes in the cctton mills and allied trades in Lan- cashire will be without work. Will Not Negotiate. As long as the Nationg] Miners’ Feder- ation adheres to the stand that a sched- ule of minimum wage rates drawn up by themselves must be conceded before they will enter into further negotiations, there appears not the slightest hope of settling the strike. The mine owners may. be forced to pay a minimum wage scale by legislation; but this method cannot force the miners to accept and return to work, Their refusal even to negotiate the question has largely alienated public opinion as expressed in the newspapers; but what is apt to prove ‘far more ef- fective is the pressure that will be ‘brought to bear upon them by the vast army of workers in other fields thrown out of work, and faced by hunger and destitution. No violence has yet occurred and no troops have been moved, but orders were issued at Aldershot tonight that the troops make ready to entrain imme- diately, if their services are needed.

ACCUSED OF STEALING ~RUGS WORTH $6000 Man Held for Chicago Police Denies He Stole Property That Is Seized. Detectives McKenna and Stevenson yesterday arrested Malcolm Redmond at 615 North Eighth street, and charged him with the theft of $6000 worth of Ori- ental rugs. Redmond was put into the holdover to await instructions from the Chicago police. He denies he stole the rugs, which the police seized. The police say the rugs were taken from the store of H. R. Eayajran, 22 North Wabash avenue, Chicago, Jan. 26. There are 12 rugs, each valued at $500.

Neither was it looked upon as a declaration of neutrality. It was declared the utterance was solely a warning to Americans to avoid anything that might savor of partisanship in the existing state of affairs. . Because of the interest felt by Eu- ropean nations, many of whose sub- jects are residents of Mexico, the State Department had fully advised with their diplomatic representatives in Washington. It was Stated also that today’s ac- tion was not regarded as indicating that the administration had aban- doned hope of the speedy restoration of peaceful conditions. . “It is merely an admonition and warning to all persons within the jurisdiction of the United States and to American citizens generally,” said Huntington I, Wilson, acting Secre- | tary of State, “to obey carefully and strictly the laws of the United States and to hold themselves wholly aloof from all participation of whatever kind in the present disturbance in Mexico,” Americans Heed Taft’s Warning and Exodus MEXICO, March 2.—President Taft's

Dele- gate Walker questioned Dr. Shutt along this line and the members of the com- mittee declared that the evidence opened a new line of investigation. The committee has been authorized by the House to compel the attendance of witnesses, administer oaths and make a thorough investigation of the alleged abuse of municipal itgtitutions by pri- vate interests, \ Dr. Shutt gave the committees the names of some of the concerns ge employes have received treatment. He. said, in answer to questions by Walker, that hospital officials give reports of the time of treatment and the nature of injuries to employes to representa- tives of the corporations, by which the firms are enabled to collect accident in- surance from the lability companies. The city is paid nothing for this serv- ice, according to Dr. Shutt. In line with the investigation of the Hospital Board the North End Dispen- sary will be moved about April 1 from 700 North Broadway to a point six blocks south and two blocks west of its present location.

All Americans outside the legations wére brought in» by de- }tachments of Arherican marines.

~NOTANONG ULTRA ASK ST. LOUSHN - Society Women Here Show No Pique at Being Left Off the List. A MAN MADE IT ANYWAY

Mrs. Sure Cummings Collins Not “Ultra-Fashionable”’ Is a Compliment. St. Louis society does not possess one man or woman with qualifications for ithe title of ultra-fashionable. Such is the decision of C. W. de Lyon ‘Nicholls, whose book, “‘The 400 Ultra- Fashionables of America,’ has just been ‘published. New York, Chicago, Wash- ington and even Cincinnati are repre- ‘sented, but not one St. Louisan is ad- ‘mitted into the gilded ranks of the na- -tion's most patriéian 20 score. But St. Louis seciety, as represented ‘by women leaders who gave their opin- ‘fons on the subject to the Post-Dispatch, ‘fs not crestfallen, and declines to take ‘the affront ‘to the city seriously. | “Wasn't it mean of the author to slight us that way?’ laughed Mrs. Am- ‘adee V. Reyburn Jr. “We will all be ‘horrib?ty depressed. Is the author a man ‘or a woman? Yes, a man. Well, perhaps the was snubbed some time by St. Louis society and is taking this method of sgetting even. Frankly, what difference can it make to any sane person whether -he or she is called ultra-fashionable or not?” | Views Not Important. “I’m not certain whether it’s a compli- ment to call anyone ultra-fashionable,”’ said Mrs. Charles Cummings Collins. “There are men and women in St. Louis as well-born and as cultured as those of other cities. I don’t think the author’s views of enough importance to con- sider them unjust to the city.’ “The people of St. Louls don’t care whether they are ultra-fashionable or not,” declared Mrs. Edward Mallinc- krodt. “They know what they can do and what they stand for, and that is enough without having the fact ‘ proclaimed to the public. We are very indifferent as to whether we are ultra-fashionable.” ‘In St. Louis,” said Mrs. Howard Benoist, “we have aristocrats in birth, in culture and in wealth. There are descendants of the first families of ‘Virginia atid of old French families. Unquestionably they are as patrician as any who live in New York or Chi- cago. The author of the book does this city an injustige.” ’ Cincinnati Included. Nicholls is also the author of “The Uitra-Fashionable Peerage of Amer- ica,” and is governor-general of the’ National Society of Scions of Colonial Cavaliers.

3 HELD FOR THEFT OF ROLLER TOWELS They Were Taken From the Free Lodging House in the Four Courts. Two men and a woman were arrested yesterday as implicated in the theft of 14 dozen roller towels from the munici- pal lodging house in the basement of the Four Courts. The lodging house is conducted for homeless men and had a daily aVerage attendance 562 last month. Francis Sheridan, who had no regu- lar address, was made clerk of the shelter. He admitted to the police yes- terday that he aided in stealing and disposing of the towels. John McFar- land, who had. been a nightly lodger, also admitted being implicated. Mrs. Oro Pappas, 1215 Market street, told the police that she sold the towels for Sheridan and McFarland. McFarland and Sheridan are. held on charges of theft and Mrs. Pappas is charged with receiving stolen property. The report of the Municipal Lodging House Commission shows that 16,295 men were lodged last month. The com- fee and roll checks redeemed in pay- ment for work done in cleaning the streets amounted to 6339, while 6626 lodging checks were redeemed. Of the 16,295 men lodged 353 took free baths at the institution. One hundred and nine- ty-five men got Hh nner +5 incl

At Clark’s Headquarters It Is An- nounced Speaker. Stands on Congressional Record.

By Wire From the Washington Bua- reau of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, March 2.—In view of the selection of Senator Dixon of Mon- tana, as campaign manager for Col. Roosevelt, a letter written by Roose- velt to Conrad Kohrs of Helena, Mont., Sept. 9, 1908 extracts of which were made public at the Taft headquarters to- night, are interesting. Roosevelt's ex- position of Taft’s fitness for the pres- icency, his personal, judicial and general qualifications for that high place are directly opposite to the views expressed by the third-term candidate in his Co- lumbus speech. ‘To permit the direction of our public affairs to fall alternately ‘nto hands of revolutionaries and reactionaries, of the extreme radicals of unrest and of the bigoted conservatives who recognize no wrongs to remedy,” said President Roosevelt in the letter, ‘“‘would merely mean that the nation had embarked on a feverish course of violent oscillation which would be fraught with great tem- porary trouble and would produce no ad- equate good in the end. The _ true friend of reform, the true foe of abuses is the man who steadily per- severes in. righting wrongs, but whose character and training are such that he never promises what he cannot perform, that he always a little more than makes good what he does promise and that, while steadily advancing, he never per- mits himself to be led into foolish ex- cesses which would damage the very cause he championed. ‘In Mr. Taft we have a man who com- bines all of these qualities to a degree which no other man in our public life since the Civil War has surpassed.’’ Continuing his praise of Taft, Roose- velt wrote: “The man to trust is the man who, like Judge Taft, does not promise too much, but who could not be swayed from the path of duty by any argument, by any consideration. On the bench Judge Taft showed two qualities which make: a great judge—wisdom and moral courage. They are also the two quali- ties which make a great President.’’ A poll of the Republican members of the House of Representatives of Massa- chusetts, received at Taft headquarters today, shows 137 for Taft and 6 for Roosevelt. Reports were also received of the formation of a number of Taft women’s clubs in the State of Washing- ton. Reports were received by Director McKinley that President Taft had cap- tured the two délegates from the Third Alabama District. Senator Dixon did not assume charge of the Roosevelt headquarters today. He will be on the job Monday, he an- nounced. In his absence Medill Mc- Cormick issued a statement in which he condemned the action of the Taft managers in Cook County, IIl., in refus- ing to stand for a presidential primary. McCormick also announced that former Senator Beveridge of Indiana is for Roosevelt. It was announced at the headquar- ters of Speaker Clark today that his campaign for the presidential nomina- tion will be fought upon his record in Congress. The friends of the Speaker, claiming his record to be invulnerable, believe that his nomination is assured. Favorable reports were received at the Speaker’s headquarters today from Col- orado. It is claimed that 80 per cent of the Democrats in Colorado favor the nomination of Clark.

Morgan's Philadelphia Partner Active for Taft. PHILADELPHIA, March 2.—Edwarid T. Stotesbury, local partner of J. P. Morgan, has thrown himself into the political arena through the issuance of a letter for members § of the IU!niton League here to sign and for the pur- pose of calling a special meeting of tne organization to go upon record as being solidly for the renomination of President Taft. By 3 o’clock this afternoon out of ap- proximately 1800 members, more than 400 had signed the petition. It is al- most assured that the league will be solidly behind President Taft. It is expected that many of the millionaire members will furnish “‘sinews of war.”’ The letter is proof that the financier and Senator Penrose are a unit on na- tional issues and have buried the hatch- et used in the recent municipal cam- paign.

Stetler of this city has reduced his weight 57 pounds in an incredibly short time by wearing a simple, invisible device, weighing less than an ounce. This, when worn as directed, acts as an infallible flesh re- ducer, dispensing entirely with dieting, medicines and exercises. Many promi- nent men and women have adopted this easy means of reducing superfluous flesh, and it is stated the inventor, Prof. B.

4 OTHERS, HURT, ESCAPE

On Snow Shoes They Elude Vigi- lantes Near Montreal When Bank Robbery Is Frustrated.

By Associated Press. MONTREAL, Quebec, March 2.—Ths killing today by a vigilance committee of a bank robber who was shot in the pursuit of a gang which tried to 'vot a branch of the Royal Bank of Montreal West, five miles west of here, ended a romance which apparently was to have resulted in a wedding Tuesday. In the Clothes of the dead bandit were found the picture of a girl, pasted in the Dack of a pocket mirror, and a new wedding ring engraved with the words: “Will to Kitty, March 5, 1912.’ The ring with its engraving, and a tattoo mark on the chest of the man bearing the words: ‘In Memory of Mother and Father,”’ are the only clews by which the police hope to establish the identity of the robber. In their opinion the safe blowers came from the United States. The fugitives wete supplied with snow shoes, and the four companions of the slain man fescaped. A Canadian Pacific watchman last night Saw the five men loitering and Watched them until they crawled through a window of the bank early today. A posse surrounded the build- ing, calling on the bandits to surrender. Then a dynamite explosion wrecked the bank, and in the confusion the robbers escaped, though they carried no booty. They were cornered in a shack, where the Chief of Police and his son fought a duel with the men. One robber was killed outright and two others were wounded. A glancing bullet wounded Charles Fitzpatrick, son. of the Chief. ee other four ran and got away after

Weak and unhealthy kidneys are probably responsible for more sickness | P and suffering than any other disease, therefore, when through neglect or other causes, kidney trouble is per- ney Earl Rogers, representing Darrow, mitted to, continue, serious results are refused to accept fragmentary notes of testimony as a compliance with a Court order that the District Attorney supply the defense with a full transcript of the evidence on which the grand jury! had intlicted Darrow. Declaring a full transcript was not} to: be had because all the testimony had not been taken by the official Stenographer, District Attorney Fredericks announced he would pay no more attention to the indictments, and have Darrow rearrested on in- ‘formations as was done in the case of Bert Franklin, the McNamara. de- tective, who was fined $4000 yester- day after entering a plea of guilty to the charge that he had attempted to influence a testative juror in the McNamara dynamiting trial, More legal obstacles arose then, however, leaving a doubt whether Such an arrest could be made in view of the fact that Darrow was under indictment for the alleged offense. Then Judge Hutton, who first ruled that the partial transcript was suf- ficient and reversed himself last week, added further complicationg by naming March 11 as the date when the accused lawyer should appear in court to have his case set for trial. When court adjourned the case was left in a condition that puzzled the at- torneys for both sides. As it stands, according to counsel, the prosecutor cannot send the case back to the grand jury because the conditions developed are not covered by the penal code. He cannot arrest Darrow on informations because he has been indicted, and finally a full transcript of the grand jury evi- sure to follow.

WASHINGTON, March 2.—The Post- Dispatch published today exclusively part of the history of how Theodore Roosevelt, while President of the Unit- ed States, deliberately effected a block- ade of any prosecution of the Interna- tional Harvester Co. (the Harvester Trust). Further investigation developed cor- respondence among Senator Hans- brough, Attorney-General Bonaparte, the late Senator Proctor and Secretary of Commerce and Labor Straus which indicates the relations of the adminis- tration with the Harvester Trust. Senator Hansbrough, in Decémber, 1906, introduced @ *$ésofution in the Sen- ate calling for ar investigation of the Harvester Trust by the Department of Commerce and fabér, The resolution was passed. At this time Senator Hans- brough was not aware of the investi- gations which had been made by D. B. Townsend, Assistant United States Attorney for North Dakota. He was not made aware of the Department. of Justice investigation until the spring of 1907, when he called at the department to get information. ‘Encouraged by Roosevelt. During the spring of 1907 he diséussed the investigation ordered by the Senate with President Roosevelt and the At- torney-General. It was at these discus- sions that the former President declared that the trust ought to be prosecuted. After learning of the investigation by Townsend, Senator Hansbrough lent all his efforts to urging the Department of Justice to prosecute. He was led to be- lieve by what the President and At- torney-General had told them that there would be a prosecution.

O’Brien Saved by Punch He Did Not Know Landed

In Exchange Both Men Are Dazed—O’Brien Gabbles, Vacuously in Endeavor to “Buffalo” Man & Who Couldn’t Hear.

By HARRY S. SHARPE. Referte of St, Louis A. C. and Post- Dispatch’s Boxing Authority. As a rule I don’t believe in lucky punches, especially between clever box- érs, but I have seen a few that were la- beled all over with luck and turned the tide of battle in a hurry. It was such a punch that saved “Philadelphia’’ Jack O’Brien from certain defeat when he made his first appearance before the West End Club in this city. O’Brien had been matched by Presi- dent Charles Haughton against Mike Schreck of Cincinnati. Things were breaking well for the Phil delphia boxer aboug that time and he was~-a great drawing card. “The bout was scheduled for March 10, 1904, and on the night in question a large crowd was present and O’Brien was given a great reception as he entered the ring. It was announced the men would box “'l5 roun for’ & de- cision,’”’ and soon the battle on.’ O’Brien was. a past master dmythe art of boxing, light as a feather 5n his fect pleased, » As has 's first jabs and hooks about as with scarcely ever a rett been stated, it was Optics pearance here and he > to make an impression with so in the second rdund ke of fancy stuff and boxed over the ring. It seemed ,s grew careless, and in an u ment Schreck put over @ de swing to QO’Brien’s jaw and jhe Phila. delphian was, slammed bi ‘gn the ropes so hard that had it not been for them he would have gone sore distanct out tnto the crowd. As it was, the ropes held and shot him back Iike a catapult. Mechanically, O’Brien swung a hard lef: which caught Schreck behind the rigtt ear, and then they clinched Neither knew when the round ended and I had to separate and start them for their rners. O’Brien had landed a “spring- back’’ without knowing it, and it was easy he rded mo- ge left for had O’Brien failed Schreck nad him at his mercy. O’Brien Thoroughly Dazed. For "as next three rounds O’Brien’s entire manner was changed, and I af- terwards learned that he did not re- member anything of the fight Until the beginning of the sixth round. it was fighting spirit that kept him going, but | he was boxing like an automaton, I noticed, too, that something had fone wrong with Schreck and when the song would sound the ending of a round he would pay it no attention. This puzzled me at first, and then I concluded he had suffered temporary loss of hearing, and this proved to be a fact. I then kept close to the men and as the gong sounded I would touch Schreck and he would turn and walk to iis corner. After awhile, when O’Brien began to get his bearings, he started to talk and kept up a line of conversation intend- ed to disconcert his opponent, but none of his sallies met with response. matter how funny or how Offensive,, it brought neither smiles nor answer. In the meantime he was giving Schreck a tremendous lacing and receiying but little himself. The bout went the limit, with 6’ Brien an easy winner, and it was some time afterwards before he knew he had wasted all his talk that night on a,man who couldn’t hear. And, perhaps, he has never realized how near he was to defeat, but had it not been for that lucky “‘spring-back”’ punch that landed Mike Schreck of Cincinnati would have had another K. O. in his record. Haughton the Arbitrary. In. connection with O’Brien’s coming to St. Louis, a little thing happened which went to show how Charlie Heughton regarded boxers who tried to dictate the terms of their appearance before the club. O’Brien was stopping at one of the leading hotels and Haughton made him an early call to note his condition and pay the usual courtesies. In the course of conversation that followed. O’Brien inquired if a competent referee could be secured. Hatighton assured him the club had a regular referee, and he would be in the ring. “But. Mr. Haughton, I don’t know your referee, and a man of my reputation cannot afford to take chances with an unknown quantity.’”’ “Well, he’s all right, and I don’t think you'll have any trouble with him.”’ “That may be; but I don’t know him, and I must insist upon a man of wide reputation. Charlie White, George Siler or Tim Hurst will suit me if you can get them; otherwise, there'll be no fight.’’ “Is that your ultimatum?’ **Yes, sir.’’ Haughton looked at him for about the six- teenth of a second, and then he said: ‘‘I don’t know what time the next train leaves—but you can take it. However, I'll call around this afternoon, and if you've changed your mind the match is on.’’ O’Brien changed his mind.

JACK HERRICK GETS DRAW WITH FAGAN LOS ANGELES, Cal., March 2.—Jack Herrick of Chicago and Bert Fagan of San Francisco, fought 2 terrific rounds to a draw in the middleweight elim- ination schedule at the Pacific Athletic Club today. Herrick had the better of the bout for more than half of the fight, In the closing rounds, Fagan, who had assimilated severe punishment, rallied strongly. Louis Rees of Los Angeles was awarded the decision over Tommy Kil- bane of Cleveland in the twelfth round of a scheduled 20-round bout, Kilbane being disqualified for butting.

MONDAY’S BOXING CARD AT IRISH-AMERICAN A. C. Oliver Kirk, St. Louis, vs. ‘“Brook- lyh’”’ Tommy Sullivan, St. Louis, eight rounds at 12% pounds. Sam Yanger of Chicago, vs. Young Peppers of Frisco, six rounés at 125 pounds. Adolph Fisher vs. William Hal- ler, both of St. Louis, six rounds at 130 pounds. Charles Jerebeck, St Louis, vs. Peter Starholz of S8t. Louis, six rounds at 140 pounds.

If Brooklyn Tommy Sullivan can trapsé a few steps back on the road that led him to has-been vale, patrons of the Irish-American Athletic Club boxiig shows will see an exhibition of clever- ness that is not often cut loose in this vicinity, Monday night, when the for- mer boxing instructor of the Missouri Athletic Club meets Oliver Kirk, his former Missouri Athletic Club pupil, since graduated from the amateur ranks to the professional with eclat. Sullivan, in his prime here about eight years ago, was rated one of the show1- lest boxers in the game for eight or ten rounds, quite able to make the best in in the country step lively. He had ro liking for the journey, however, and oc- casionally slowed up after 10 or 12 rounds had passed. : One of his dangerous punches was also | ohe of the most costly to him. It was an uppercut to the body. It was always started low and occasionally landed foul, costing Sullivan two or three bouts which he otherwise had at his mercy. It is to be hoped that Sullivan has put this blow from his repertoire. With the poorer judgment of hand and eye which he must own now, there is still greater chance of fouling an opponent, . Another favorite blow of Sullivan’s was a resounding kidney punch which tickled the crowd without hurting the opposition greatly. What Sullivan’s clever feinting will do to the cool and cautious Kirk can not be figurdd. Kirk has plenty of nerve and his deadly left wi tless peck the Sullivan countenance a rubicund condition long before the eight rounds have ended. Were Kirk a better body punisher his play would undoubtedly be for the more or less venerable pantry region of the rejuvenated Tommy. Kirk, by the way, is none to adept in protect- ing his own Vitals, yet, and it was in the body that Tommy Dixon did most of his work when they met at the Bt. Louis A. C, here not so long since. Sullivan is not much ove He is a clean living lad and there is net much doubt that the five weeks’ hard work he has been through has restored him wonderfully. He needs about six months of steady boxing, however, before he can hope to be the elusive, Wary accu- rate Sullivan of old. Kirk’s condition and the fact that he has been boxing regularly and keeping on edge, give him the favoritism for the bout, The preliminaries are a bunclf of pick- ups of ordinary caliber, capable of fur- nishing good amusement by their will- ingness.

Packey’to Show He Owns. Punch in Hogan Fight

CHICAGO, March 3.—There is a good beating in store for the much-exploited “One“Mound” Hogan when Packey Mc- Farland bumps into the Frisco sensation in their scheduled 10-round bout at the Fairmount A, C. in New York, on the night of March 6. Packey declares he will follow much the same plan against Hogan he pur- sued against the much-touted Eddie Murphy, and everybody knows what Packey did to the tough New BDngland- er. The light hitting M¢Farland beat Murphy at his own game, and when the logical moment arrivéd, sent the East- erner on his haunches for the referee's count of seven. Hogan is said to be one of the clever- est boxers in the East at the present time, and for some time held off sign- ing with Packey. In New York Packey | is conceded to be the cleverest thing that ever strode the padded mat. He has shown repeatedly that no one can lay @ glove on him effectively, and Knockout Brown, a strong New York idol, has steadfastly refused to even talk of a match with Packey. Hogan, however, seéms to have fallen into @ trap which spells d-e-f-e-a-t for him. The boys have agreed to make 155 pounds at 8 o’clock, which means that Packey isn’t getting very far away from the legitimate lightweight limit, as many have been led to believe. “Only to Save Pennant Will I Play,” Declares Manager of Buccaneers PITTSBURG, March 2.—Tl not take the field and I'll not bat in a pinch. I am through with playing the game. I have loved) baseball since a boy and playing the game in recent years has given me the same thrills as tn boyhood. But corfimon sense tells me the time has come to quit.” Frea Clarke made the above state- ment at baseball headquarters this af- ternoon. Continuing, he sald:+ ‘While I am firm fn my intention to quit, I am not going to fly in the face of judgmeat and common sense. . But my mind is made up and-I know what I shall dp. Of course, if we are within two weeks from the close of the season and the pennant is in sight and I fee! that I can help out I will obey the rule of common sense and play.

IAAT } h HAS ABE REALLY GONE BACK? OW far Abraham Attell has gone down the slope that leads to ob- livion may be more definitely deter- mined after his next engagement at San Francisco, where he is scheduled to box that near-but-not-quite championship lightweight timber, Harlem Tommy Murphy. Attell will be conceding 10 pounds or so and if he can win over the Harp it will be evident that the little featherweight’s defeat by Kilbane was less due to retrogression than to Kil- bane’s superority—a view not a few persons competent to criticise have held. The “white way,” faro, poker, race- horse speculation and even the humble but effective means of separating one from cash, ‘“‘craps,’’ are said to have had much to do with sending Abe far down the hill, to ‘‘has-been’”’ valley. Abe has been pictured as sitting disconsolate among the ruins of his blasted career— an edifice his own efforts are supposed to have wrecked. But the probabilities are that Abe will stab out a victory over Murphy, and then the “‘gone back” the- ory will have to be abandoned. ABE NEVER TOOK A :- BEATING. BE has not been hurt in his fights for years. None of those heart- crushing beatings most fighters have to sometimes take, even while winning their way to a title, was inflicted on him. For years there has not been a boy of his caliber who could make 122 pounds. The good ones were just above or below, and Abe’s reputation has fat- tened on the showing he has been able to make against men in the class above him, none of whom hurt his stamina by trimming him painfully. But let that not be construed too strongly as an evidence of his funda- mental ability. While here with Jack McKenna as his manager, in the early years of the present century, Abe once told the writer: “] like these lightweights, rll box any of them, McGovern, Cor- bett, Hanlon, all of them, let them make catch weights and promise myself to weigh in at 122 pounds. These fellows are too slow to outfoot a little man like myself, and I'm clever enough to atab out a point victory going away from them.” To show that he knew what he was talking about, it may be mentioned that of all the men he faced to whom he gave away @ class in weight, Jack Mce- Clelland of Pittsburg and Freddie Welsh were the only ones that outpointed him. lad has twice faced Attell in short fights, edge.

i | Among those lightweights whom Attell has met is his prospective opponent of March 9, Tommy Murphy. The Harlem with neither party having a convincing This was in 1910. ATTELL FOLLOWERS FAITHFUL. T HUS, if Attell defeats Murphy this time, it will immediately pave the way for a return match with Kil- bane. Such has been the confidence in Attell’s ability to defeat anyone at his weight that there will be an undoubted demand -for another contest. Kilbane has already expressed his willingness to take on Attell again, but wants six months to enjoy the spofls that go with a title winner in pugilism—t. ¢., theatri-| cal contracts and easy marks. You can’t blame Johnny. Ready money generally looks good to all of us, while iv championenip —" it comes hard. BOUT. A REAL WR BAN OW for the nn fa 6? the light- weight wrestiing, "te ) meweagnertett imbroglio. This wift oben’ this after- noon, at St. Louis, wheH Max Lutt- berg of Chicago and Sohn‘"Billiter of Toledo come together In a fifflsh catch- as-catch-can contest at 136. pounds. The men are supposed to have $1000 up for weight and appearance, the,@ame to go as a side bet, if everything goes all right. Imagine wrestlers betting ‘$1000 of their own money on themselves—darn that sore lip! I can’t even laugh. Luttbeg is the greatest wrestler of his weight in the world—that is, he once owned that reputation. What Father Time has done to him none can say. Up to two years ago none would have had a doubt, even despite his two-score or more years, that he could throw Bil- liter if the match were in earnest. But Billiter went to the Gotch training camp one season and learned a world of stuff there. He became so good that the entire camp vowed to have a little piece of change on the Toledo boy whenever he went to the mat for his title. Billiter once defeated Luttbeg, but the latter always declared that he went on with the understanding it was to be an exhibition, and that Billiter double- crossed him in the deciding fall. ‘ Whatever may be the truth, the hest wrestling witnessed in this city in years will no doubt be seen at the St. Louis Rowing Club today. The men will go to it ‘on the level,” as the critical eyes of every wrestling expert in the city will be on the affair. And St. Louis owns some real critical eyes.

Athletics Only Team That CarriesS piritualAdviser

‘i Rector of Atlantic City Catholic Church Ac- companied Connie Mack to Training — Quarters.

SAN ANTONIO, Tex., March 2.—Con- nie Mack has nailed down one record already for the season of 1912, as he probably has the only team outside of the Church League that has started out on the training trip attended by a spir- itual adviser. The Rev. Father Mc- Closky of the Church of the Holy Spirit of Atlantic City, who finds enough spare time from saving souls to also be a dyed-in-the-wool baseball fan, is the original adviser ‘Who has accompanied the Athletics on this trip and will stick till the jaunt is finished, and if Ameri- Tobacco Habit Banished Dr. Elder's Tobacco Boon yom @ aoe ere o A oauitiee be Home rE rhol. - as teas adtiagten Tobacco ne ine" after.

can League umps find the world’s champs to be a particularly mild bunch of pastimers during the coming sea- son, it can be attributed to the moral effect of Father McClosky’s presence during this training trip. The reverend father is also some baseball player, donning a sult ard and with Father McClosky working out with the team down here and the Rev. Dr. Davis rooting his head off at home, the spiritual end of the Athletics’ game is being well looked after. * « . During the short period of activity down here, it has already been plainly demonstrated beyond cavil, whatever that is, that this fellow Maggert, the fastest thing that has been created on the Pacific Coast since the gold rush of "49, is the guy who will set the standard of merit that Lord, Oldring and Strunk will have to beat to keep that outfield jod in the family. Maggert is the guy we've got our lamps trimmed on down here just now, and while it is too early in the game for Bris, Rube and Amos the raw material for the manufacturing of outfielders that Connie lugged into working out with the players every day, | LUTTBEG MEETS JOHN BILLITER FOR TITLE TODAY Lightweight Wrestlers in Cham- — pionship Go at St. Louis Row-. ing Club. “Max LuttWeg of Chicago vs. John Billiter of Toledo, for the lightweight wrestling championship of the United States and Canada.” Time was when such a bout would have been staged at one of the big halls of the city with every certainty of it being viewed by a capacity throng. Today, when th two lights of the mat world are bobked to meet in this city, the scene of action Is at the St. Louis Rowing Club, foot of Chouteau avenue, with a seating ca- pacity of less than 1000. Byidently the promoters of the show had rea- son to doubt its general popularity a and preferred to have a packed, if a house, to a large and vaonas hall The fighters themselves don’t care greatly, as they have @ $1000 side bet; and the 8t._ Louls Rowing Club is more interested in.-giving its members a real show than in coining money off the gate..

in Browns’ Weather Man Puts Crimp Training Plans

With Snow on the Ground, Browns Will Be Unable to Do the Right Kind of Work at Sportsman’s Park Monday.

By CLARENCE F. LLOYD. ITH the field at Sportsman’s Park covered with a heavy blanket of snow, Manager Bob Wallace of the Browns will be forced to start the training s-ason here. Monday under a severe handicap, Tomorrow is the official reporting date for all members of the Waliacean tribe. Manager Bob and the small squad that have been drinking water and hiking over the hills at West Baden for the last 10 days, depart from Others who were not asked to make the jaunt to Indiana are expected to come here today from their respective homes. When all are assembled, Wallace will be in conymand of a crew of some 40 athletes. As many of these are un- known quantity and the field is in shape for practice the Scotchman’s t pwill be made all the harder. The big grand stand at Grand and Dodi-cr street may be of some help, but the chances are that the men will not come out for work unless Old Sol is on the job. It has been said many times that in case of cold or wet weather the men would be asked to run, throw and slide bases under the huge stand. But that same stand was there a year azo when the Browns | returned to St. Louis from Hot Springs. Cold and wet weather was on tap, but none of the athletes did any exercising un- der the stand. That’s because the mod- ern athletes refuse to take any chances with their salary whips in the cold weather. For the same reason this vear it is -almost a _ certainty that’ the Browns will not do any work unless" the weather is warm. Why This Delay, Bob? Wallace haon’t seen fit to whack off heads as rapidly as was expected. His troupe is a big one and it was believed that several men would draw ticke¢s to minor league teams before the time for reporting in St. Louis. But to date only three have been relegated to the “bushes.”’ They are Outfielder Al Schweitzer and Infielder Al Moulton, both of whom have been shipped to the k

the Indiana Spa tonight and will arrive here tomorrow morning. Memphis (Southern League) team, and 1First Baseman Wilson. So with two-score of ball tossers on hand and atmospheric conditions against him, Manager Wallace is in a ticklish position. Unlike Manager Bresnahan of the Cardinals, Wallace has a crowd of newcomers to test. Most of these core up with good records and will require much time and attention. As the.spring jseries between the Browns and Car-|/' dinals commences March 23, it means that Wallace will have to crowd much work into the next three weeks. A player who is expected here tomor- row among others is Fred H. Gross, an infielder, whose home is in Beardstown, Ill Gross made the training trip South with the Chicago White Sox last spring. While at Mineral Wells, Tex., he injured } his leg while sliding into a base and was put out of commission for the re- mainder of the season. Since then he has been working asa civil engineer for the Government on the Mississippi River at Rock Island. He reports that his Ieg has mended and is confident that he¢ will make the other fellows hustle to beat him out of the job at second base. That Manager Wallace wants Jack Powell to work in several games of the spring series with tne Cardinals, is evi- dent from the fact that the big right- hander is to be sent to Hot Springs for a three-weeks’ boiling out. Jack gets away tonight for the Valley of Vapors and will not return until he is in prime condition. Being of huge frame, Powell has a better chance of getting into shape in the warm climate of Arkansas than he has at Grand and Dodier. So

George Stovall, former Nap manager and first baser, isn’t expected to be among those present at the Planters Hotel tomorrow when the big crew gets in. Stovall hasn't in- formed President Hedges of his plans, other than that he will be in St. Louis about next WeGnesday. While there have been rumors afloat that Stovall is balking at being turned ver to the Browns, President Hedges says he hdsn’t heard any direct word from Sto- vall to that effect. And as it has been ‘wo weeks since Stovall became a Brownie, Own- er Hedges believes he would have heard com- plaint by this time. provided Stovall is bulk- ing at coming here. At any rate, Stovall will be here about Wednesday, and his de- mands will then be made known.

Kutina may prove a hit as a big-mit man.

SELL ON MOTOR CYCLES “One never can tell what new inven- tion may effect the destinies of a busi- ness apparently far removed from the sphere of invention,’ said the head of a prominent wholesale grocery house the other day, when placing an order for 10 Flanders ‘‘4’’ motor cycles. “For example, no one would have be- lieved that the motor cycle would effect our business to any great extent. As a matter of fact, however, we noticed several months ago that our city busi. ness had .been dropping off quite rap- idly although there was not the same noticeable difference in retail trade. At first we were puzzled, and blamed it on our city salesmen. We thought they had lost their enthusiasm. An analysis of conditions, however, proved that it was the motor cycle which was raising hob with us. Not the motor cycle in our own possession—for we had none—but those with which our alert competitors had equipped their city salesmen. We have adopted them.”’ a A. A. A. IS TEN YEARS OLD Ten years from the birth of the na- tional organization of automobtilists, March 4, 1902, in Chicago, the American Automobile Association today -is orgun- ized-in 42 states, possesses some 320 lova] clubs, in addition to several thousands of individual members, and is serving efficiently the needs of automobiling. | In the. Chicago organization these nine clubs had delegates present: Long Island Automobile’ Club, Autumobile Club of Philadelphia, Chicago Automobile Club, Rhode Island Automobile Club, Autom- bile Club of America, Automobile Club of New Jersey, Automobile Club of Utica, Grand Rapids Automobile Club. Princeton University Automobile C'lub. ISLANDERS BUY AUTOS “Every ship bound ‘or Porto Rico,’’ says J. B. Tower of the United States Tire Co., “has from two to half a doz- en American cars aboard. Yet, inspite of this fact, the people over there don’t seem able to get them fast enough: “There are at the present time 726 cars owned on the island, which has a population of 118000. The people are divided into two classes—the very rich and the very poor. As a result, Porto Rico is proving a fine market for good cars. The rich can afford to buy them and the poor can’t, so price isn’t much of an object over there. Practically all of the cars one sees on the island are American made.” : 1 tah Te CAR CROSSED CONTINENT The Lindsay Motor Car Co. has shown with much pride the Premier car which made the trip from the At- lantic to the Pacific recently with- out a_ mishap. It ‘is endearingly called the “‘Ocean to Ocean Schooner” and it has attracted much attention on the streets of St. Louis during the week. The car was one of 12 Premiers that made the cross-continent. run. Every car answered the roll call on time at the end of the journey as did everyone of the passengers, were all, with two exceptions, private- ly owned.

a Cen THERMOMETER 18 BELOW Hermann Miller of the Southern Auto and Machinery Co. has been notified of a “smart” performance of an Ohio ‘‘40’’ car which was driven from Toronto, Ontario, to Cincinnati in 65 hours. The distance covered was 851 miles. The car, a torpedo body, was driven by F. E. Martin of Toronto, who found weather as low down as 18 below zero and part of the trip in the north was over rail- road ties because the highway was so bad. .

No cams, ‘no timing gears. No grinding of valves, for carbon can’t cause leakage. No waste of power. Here’s ‘a car that runs smoothly at walking speed on high gear. Here’s an engine which gives you that continuous power for which electric motors are famous.

And here is the only engine which grows better with use—more silent, more powerful. That has been proved by six years’ ceaseless serv- ice.

The Stearns-Knight car fairly glides on the road, like coasting down hill. There is no evident effort —no seeming tax. It affords luxury of motion such as never was known in any old-type car. 50 Per Cent More Power ' We guarantee the Stearns-Knight to show 50 per cent mofe than its rated power. ¥ For the rating is made on the basis of old type motofs. This is due to the fact that sleeve valves don’t leak. Carbon cannot affect them.

Beginning today, the automobile joy- rider who scoots up the street in St. Louis at a dangerous speed with his born tooting, a trail of nasty black emoké streaming behind him amd his muffler cut out, so as to make the. an- noying chugging sound, will shortly find himself under arrest and subject to heavy fine as a public nuisance. This is to be accomplished by the en- forcement of the ordinance intrefuced by Councilman Paul R. Fletcher at the instance of the Automobile Club of St. Louls and the Automobile Manufactur- ers and Dealers’ Association, which be- came effective Saturday. It applies equally to automobiles, taxicabs and motor cycles. Friday the Automobile Club advised its members of the new law and the manufacturers and dealers were notified of it a week ago by their secretary, 80 that ignorance of the law will be no ex- cuse with the police or the police. courts.

THE NEW CASE “SIX” The J. I. Case Co. has a double pur- pose in view in equipping its racing cars to be used this season in the big events, with six-cylindér motors. Ac- cording to W. S. Roberts, manager of the St. Louis Case branch house, hi8 peopls believe that the six-cylinder en- gine has a big advantage in a long race and in addition to this the company wants to try out the six-cylinder en- gine with a view to adopting it in a new type Case car for 1913. A “GENTLEMAN’S CAR” The General Motor Car Co., 38948 Olive street, is showing one of the new Locomobile “88” Little Sixes. The car is rated at 38 horsepower, but develops easily 60. It has 10-inch up- holstery, has the long stroke six-cyl- inder motor and ig built for five pas- sengers. It is essentially a “gentle- man’s car.’’ “Usin’ Tiz Gramma? ‘*¥Yes, Harold, It Makes Grandma’s Feet Feel Just Like Yours, Free From Tiredness, Aches and Corns!’’ “Your papa and mamma, = your grandpa and your grandma all use TIZ, Harold.

WEVE ENJOYED THE GREATEST season's busi e tae! JUST CONSIDER FOR A MOMENT: In September, 1911,-we shipped 3,600-automobiles. That wae a record. But in February—just passed—we have shipped 500 more cars than we did in that wonderful September. And this is a lea , E-M-F “30's”. In round figures $3,750 worth of automobiles in 24 working days. YET: YOU’LL REMEMBER our competitors said we could never build altiollen! automobiles we prt ised for 1912—well, we leave it té you. It’s a simple. problem: in multi tion—and poputatity of the product. NOW THERE MUST BE A REASON for the-reversing of. conditions. And there is—or rather .aro— two of them. ; a P FIRST: BUYERS HAVE LEARNED from past. experience that he who hesitates putt bf buying his ular models. Too man car until the Spring season is open—cannot hope to get one of those ahead of him—three customers waiting for every car that comes out factory in April, May, June and July, c | : ee | : SO TARDY BUYERS HAVE HAD TO. accept substitutes—on tha “just as good.” a AND THAT BRINGS US BACK to what we were discussing at these two moddls have: geeven, stare haa enue bole, Sane ) winter now about past. : as YOU SEE ANY OLD AUTOMOBILE will sell in the spring rush seam mn. That's ah: Concerns that are hard pushed to pay their bills in the fall and winter say “just March—then we can sell our pfoduct because others can’t + the demand.” IT’S FUNNY, BUT IT’S A FACT that when a man once makes up going to have itsome kind of a car. i232 IF HE’S LATE HE CAN'T hope to get a Flanders “20” or an E-M-F “30.” You know that from past seasons’ experience, If you don’t, ask any dealer—our or rivals’. So thousands of buyers have had to accept substitutes—copies, or worse still, rank experimenits.\/And the cost of that experience has been heavy. | BUT WE SAID THERE WERE TWO reasons—here is the second and the chief reagon: The sterling worth of these two models as proven thru several years of the most rigorous : , “ q in the trade service. THAT IS THE CHIEF REASON why, in spite of the severe winter weather; in spite of half-crop con- ditions in some sections; in spite of the general unsettled financial condition everyw. to residential year; in spite of the short demand of which all other makers and dealers Studebaker Corporation and its product has enjoyed the greatest demand and is today doing the greatest volume of business ever done, not only in our own history, but in the history of the a mobile business. * THE TREMENDOUS—the almost unbelievable demand for E-M-F “30” and Flanders “20"—the business-in-our-entirefiistory. December, emp aenty « gest December; January was-our biggest. January, and this-month has psoven- the greatest month in — t February! 4000 cars—2200 Flanders “20” and 1600 a a 4 be P sat mn a Us over r s “ . larity of these cars in the minds of buyers who know them by their past performances in the. foods of neighbors arid friends—has turned January into May, winter into a summer season of demand and filled our order books, while others, selling competing cars have been begging for business or subsisting on half rations, : ISN’T IT WONDERFUL?—Any business man can appreciate our feelings. And it inspires us to greater things. It encourages us to try and make them still better—if possible. It proves to us that our here pap sams toward buyers is right—that it. pays to.so treat every buyer afterward that he becomes a salesman without a salary. IT IS FOUR YEARS now since the first E-M-F “30” went to its owner. Three years since the first Flanders “20” went forth rom the factory. The “30” was a success from the jirst—the “20” suffered some infantile drawbacks from birth. Perhaps the latter received more loving care on that account. ANYWAY WE CAN’T TELL today which of these two great cars are really the most popular with buy- ers. The demand for both is vastly greater than the possible supply. Each occupies a place of its own; as shown that ma persons own one of each, Each competes—in a class of its own--if you can call it competition when the buyer says, “if can’t get a Flanders “20” I may take this one;” or “Everybody that seems to know tells me to get an E-M-F “30” if I can, and if not 20 take ...... a8 second best.” IF THAT IS COMPETITION then these two models < ‘apete, each in a class of its own—ar is - nized and admitted to be the greatest car—the most satisfactory under all conditions—and in first cost cost gaum tenance, thé greatest money value it is possible to obtain or to give in an automobile. E ONE WORD ABOUT DELIVERIES: You've learned from past years what to expect. We can say no more. If your order is in—a deposit paid the dealer and a definite place in the line secured, you will not be But he who hesitates is surely lost—this season more than ever before. , TODAY!

His Murder Is Newest Tragedy in Social World of Czar’s Domain.

ST. PETERSBURG, March 2.—Pas- sionate crime grows apace in the aristocratic fast %set and Col. Lubo- visi, a cavalry officer, is the latest victim. He was found dead in a bar- rister’s house with four bullets in his body. Miss:Alexieff, daughter of the State Councillor, and her fiance, a student named Cypin,. were immedi- ately arrested as letters from her to Lubovisi were found in the dead man’s desk, declaring that, unknown to her betrothed, Miss Alexieff had been the Colonel’s “affinity” for the last two years, One -letter said “I will always love you, but Cypin will kill you if he ever finds out the truth.” The pair were set free after proving their alibi at the time of the crime,* but Cypin is so desperate that his friends watch him day and night lest he kill himself. ! Further search tends to prove that the Colonel. was the victim of a love affair in Moscow. He told a friend just before his murder that he knew his days’ were numbered, as a woman he had once loved and a member of. good Moscow society, had threatened to kill him, as she found out all about Miss Alexieff. Though released, Cypin has been re-examined several times and is closely shadowed by the police. The Moscow lady’s identity is a secret so far, but many shadowy guesses are made. The Colonel spent much time in Moscow and stayed with a barris- ter friend in whose house he was found dead when he visited the city. BULLETS IN BODY

Oh how disappointed you are to see it.—Gray hairs take away that youthful eo aod that you are so anxious to, and should keep,—for beauty and good looks depend so much upon natural colored, thick, glossy and healthy hair. Every one is attracted to the woman with beautiful hair. Why not have it— get rid of. the gray hairs—keep them out altogether by using HAY’S HAIR HEALTH. You'll be surprised how quickly it will restore those gray hairs to their natural color and how well it will keep them so.

-ever-recurring problem of the country he High School at Polo, found it neces- {sary recently to thrash three boys who ‘lignored the rules.

TEACHER FINED FOR WHIPPING 3 BOYS THRASHES 6 MOR BLOOMINGTON, IIL, March 2.—Who shall rule, the teacher or the pupil? The

school has been causing excitement at Polo and Tiskilwa, where factional feuds have developed that promise to exist a long time. rof. J. W. Miller, superintendent of Parents got a war- rant for his arrest and he was fined $35 on a charge of assault and batiery. Punishes Six More Boys. He returned to the school after pay- ing the fine and found six boys who ridiculed him. He punished all six even more severely than the first three. As in the other case, the parents of the six swore out warrants for his arrest and he was fined $50 more. To the relief of the superintendent, the members of the Board of Education went to him in a body, patted him on the back, handed him the money to pay al! fines and costs, and extended a vote of thanks for his nerve. They instruct- ed him to thrash any others who needed it. assuring him that they would con- tinue to pay all fines that parents brought about. Becomes a Model School. Up to date no more boys have cared to take chances and the school has We- come a model. In Tiskilwa Prof. N. N. Stevenson, superintendent of the High School, caught a pupil, Fred Clark, tapping upon an inkwell, to the annoyance of the instructors and other pupils. For ignoring an order to desist Clark was runished. The same day. two brothers abused the superintendent when re- proved, using improper language, it is expelled all three boys, but to pacify the parents discharged the superin- tendent when he refused to resign.

Speaker Clark Will Add His Mite. In a fine tribute to Jefferson, Sen- tor John Sharp Williams of Missis- sippi said that “it is especially inter- esting in connection with the bequest of a great journalist for a monumeént to Jefferson to note the guarantee of the freedom of the press, and to recall in this connection that Jeffer- son in one of his letters—to whom addressed I have forgotten just now —said that all governments needed watching, and that as long as there was a/free press they would have it.” Representative Champ Clark of Missguri, Speaker of the House, re- gards it aS appropriate that a mon- ument to Jefferson, “the father of Democracy,” should be erected in New York, the greatest pemparene city in America. “T will chip in my mite,” he adds,

“to help the good cause along.” § Monument to Be Built to Democracy’s Founder in Leading Democratic City T is eminently fitting that in the leading Democratic city of the Union : @ monument should be erected to the memory of one who had been the | first in this land to enunciate the prin- _@ples of Democracy. Jefferson was the owledged leader of his party, its der, one may say. His effort at all was to keep it Intact, to strength- @ its lines with whatever patronage ’ ghere was at his disposal. It has there- ' fore been frequently asserted, and with - @pparent truth, that it was Jefferson - end not Jackson who had first acted pon the theory that “to the victor pe- a | Snare the spoils.” Jackson ‘was the first ' te use the phrase and to give to the pol- fey a sharp and definite shape.

And throughout the entire tenure of office he consistentlv conducted the affairs of the Government on what he believed to be true democratic princi. ples. PURCHASE OF LOUISIANA MONUMENTAL ACHIEVEMENT OR eight years Jefferson adminis- E tered the affairs of the nation, and during that time showed him- self to be a statesman of highest abil- ity. Chief. among the lasting benefits whic he conferred upon his country were the negotiations which led to the purchase from Napoleon of the terri- tory of Louisiana, and by which, for the relatively small sum of $15,000,000, the United States secured the most im- portant acquisition of territory that was ever made by purchase. “This acces- sion,’ said Napoleon, ‘“‘strengthens for- ever the power of the Unite States and gives to England a rival that will sooner or later humble her pride." Bred in the midst of revolution, Jeffer- s0n wrought some upheavals by his own hand. While a member of the Virginia House of Delegates he introduced a bill doing away. with the entire system of entail. No more audacious measure had ever been reported. From. generation to generation lands and slaves had been banded down, protected against cred- Itors, even against the extravagence of spendthrift owners. As a result of his fight against that system, entail in Vir- ginia crashed to pieces. He next as- sailed the principle of primogeniture. At least, implored those who favored the {system, if the eldest son may not longer inherit all of the lands and slaves of his father, let him take a double share.

HLS by Executors of | Mr. Pulitzer and Governors 69 East Seventy-ninth st., New York. To the Editor of The World: IR: The will of the late Joseph Pulitzer gives his executors the sum of twenty-five thousand dollars for the purpose of erecting a statue of Thomas Jefferson in the city of New York. To this bequest Mr. Pulitzer added an expression of his hope that the public might unite with him in creating this memorial and that a sum equal to his bequest might be raised by public sub- scription, so that a statue of that great statesman might “at last adorn some public place in New York, the most democratic city of the New Republic.” It has seemed to the executors of Mr. Pulitzer that the effort to interest the public in the proposed statue and to raise a fund of twenty-five thousand dollars could with propriety and with the best hope of speedy results be made through the newspaper with which Mr. Pulitzer was identified. At the request of the other executors and on their behalf I am, therefore, addressing you to urge that this subject be brought to the attention of the people at an early day, in order to carry out Mr. Pulitzer’s desire that the sum of fifty thousand dollars should be available to construct a thoroughly worthy monument to Mr. Jefferson, which may be as well an ornament to the city as a memorial to the author of the Declaration of Independence. ‘Jefferson Believed in the People, Says Gov. Dix ALBANY, N. Y., March 2. OSEPH PULITZER’S generous J quest for a worthy memorial to Thomas Jefferson is an unique and patriotic service that affords a fitting and appropriate climax to Mr. Pulitzer’s lifelong advocacy of the principles and the philosophy of the great scholar and statesman. Jefferson's career was based on his belief in the people, in their right to self-government and in their capacity to govern themselves. He was the foe of privilege and of the aristo- cratic theory of government. He was the father of modern Democracy. He had the courage to put into practice that supreme confidence in the pes- ple which was the cornerstone of his political philosophy. Great as she is, America is not great efiough for Thomas Jefferson. His principles have influenced and are now influencing the world-wide democratic movement that is pro- Respectfully yours, G. L. RIVES. procity, which is now advocated by all thinking men in every party. Thus, Jefferson, who was the founder not only of the Democratic party, but of the broadest principles of American statesmanship, declared in favor .of establishing “friendly arrangements with the nations,’’ against whom we had built up re- strictions, and added that we must ‘“carry into such arrangements all the liberality and spirit of accommo- dation which the nature of the case will permit.” _ An examination of Jefferson’s State . documents will prove to anyone that he advocated the broadest possible measure of reciprocity between the United States and other countries, and in the recognition of that meas- ure the greatest hope for the ultim- mate development of the United States. His words are as true today as they were then, and we have come to a point where public servants can no longer ignore them. GOV. EUGENE N. FOSS. foundly affecting the economic and The Governor of Virginia political relations of mankind His fame will last as long as men love liberty and strive for justice. In our time, perhaps, no American has done more than Joseph Pulitzer to keep alive the basic principles of Jefferson democracy and apply them to the settlement of the prob-. lems of today. It is singularly ap- propriate that to him should belong the honor of inaugurating a move- ment for the creation of a memorial that in its dignity and impressiveness will be commensurate with the genius and the achievements of Thomas Jefferson. : JOHN A. DIX. “One of Joseph Pulitzer’s Most Public-Spirited Acts.” BOSTON, March 2. N my opinion, Jos. Pulitzer’s be- | quest for the Thomas Jefferson Memorial is one of the most public-spirited events of that distin- guished journalist's cureer. It would be a good thing if every American public servant and every politician would keep in mind the fundamentals of Thomas Jefferson’ s life. Washington was the father of his country, but Thomas Jefferson was the great;teacher of political ideals, and whenever our public policies de- part from the Jeffersonian spirit they turn away from the highest in- ‘terests of the -country. For many reasons I am glad to see the old party designations losing something of their former rigidity. It is a good thing for the country that the partisan spirit should die. out to a certain extent, and that all parties should more and more come | together for progressive measures. One Indication of this tendency is the regard in which men of all parties now hold the memory of Jef- ferson. To me Thomas Jefferson is, and always has been, the type of what every public servant ought to be, and T particularly owe my allegiance to his memory, because he wag the founder of the principle of reci- Praises Mr. Pulitzer’s Bequest RICHMOND, Va., March 2. privileged to contribute to the Jefferson Memorial proposed by the will of Mr. Joseph Pulitzer. To T American people should feel : Jefferson the American people owe a lasting debt of gratitude second only to that to Washington. The vigor of his versatile genius. the lofty pa- otism of his noble life and the splendor of his devoted service give him a-pre-eminent place in American history for all time. The clarity of his. political vision, the accuracy of his watchful foresight and the tri- umph of his ideals of free govern- ment unite to render his influence today the most potent of any Amer-’ ican statesman. A memorial to him in New York, as planned by Mr. Pu- litzer, would be particularly fitting at this time when the wisdom of the . principles for which he contended is daily being exemplified. GOV. W.

To this man a fitting memorial, to be erected in the greatest city of America, has been provided for in the will of Joseph Pulitzer. In this will he also “directed his executors to give the public an opportunity to add to his bequest by a genera) sub- ecription. It is to be hoped that such adai- tions will be made, and by small sums as Well as large ones. Jefferson had a heartfek and pro- found trust in the American people.

The Times matter somewhat emp it says, in fits editorial leader today, that England is facing the worst, peril since the Spanish armada. From the city’s point of view, the week's event ‘confirms apprehensions of the past five years concerning the returns of capital and labor under the present ‘ministerial regime. This’ does not mean that the present min- ers have not solid grievances, but means the idea in financial quarters is that the labor situation has been getting steadily out of hand for sev- era] years, largely becan the Gov- ernment has pandereé@ to’the labor element in politics, thus mecessarily introducing class bitterness, It would not be easy to exa rate the gravit ho the threatened industrial com- plicat ‘The turning of a million coal miners into idleness will probably be followed within a few days by the stoppage of work for more than another million workers, through the enforced } stoppage or wy ring oR some leading industries for lack the strike continues, cotton mills will be .confronted with. a shutdown, and an extensive curtailment of ex- ports and consequent change in our in- ternational trade balances would follow. On the financial effect of this, if the strike is not wholly or partially settled within @ fortnight, it would be unde- sirable to dwell at the present moment. France, being herself threatened with a strike. would probably be reluctant to export coal to England. Germany would be more di to seize the op- portunity of entering English markets. One important continental compary which has always bought English coal, is today refusing to buy continental coal uts this view of the tically when because unsuitable for its purposes, cele it is said to have purchased largely from America, as it finds this commodity suitable, and it is likely to remain a permanent customer. The market holds that our Govern- ment should have acted in the matier weeks ago. Even now there ure no visible indications of firmness in deal- ing with the problem, whose difficulty lies In the fact that, while the Govern- ment is prepared to coerce owners in the matter of paying a minimum vese with safeguards as to minimum gh iy the miners refuse conditions on their s The strikers’ funds are probably only sufficient to last a fortnight; but, in view of the universality of the strike, this may accentuate the social dangers of the episode. Stocks Should Move. If there are no signs of settlement me Monday, stocks will probably be- gin to refiect the situation, Fortu- nately, the financial ition” is and our international credit a og large.

"UT PRES ADVANGE ON A LIBERAL SUPPLY Medium Kinds Lead the Way to Higher Prices and All Sorts Close Above Week Ago.

Receipts National Stock Yards. Cattle. Hogs. Sheep. Past week. 7 23 Month ago. TORE. GRO. scocrccecss: 11,200 54,000 Cattle receipts for the past week ag- gregated several hundred more than a week azo compared closely to the re- ceipts last year. The increase was due to the Southern run, which was the heaviest for several weeks. Little change was noticeable in the supply of native cattle. The beef steer showing has been moderate and trade has favored the Sell- ing element throughout the week. On the opening day of the session a fair demand prevailed for the good kinds, but the medium grades were the favorites. Advances on the best cattle were limited to l10c, while the medium grades enjoyed a 10c to lic grain. This condition was in effect most of the week and the best cattle closed lic to 2c above last week, while the full force of the advance moved the medium kinds. Lightweight cattle were good sellers and closed lic to 25c above last week. Quali- ty has been better than the average. Some 1365-pound beeves at $7.75 furnished the top, with a range of $6. .25 mov- ing the bulk of the steers. Lightweights and common gg moved at a range of HD. 65 down to $4.75 The receipts of the butcher grades dur- ing the past week have been moderate and ‘buyers have been complaining of the ‘shortage, as a good part of the de- mand has remained unfilled at every ses- sion. The initial day of the week saw a normal Monday cattle aggregate, but butcher grades were lacking. The re- turn of the cold weather stimulated the demand and heifers ruled strong to 10c higher. Supplies continued light and the close finds the best grades 25c to 35e above last week, while a good quarter advance is moving. the medium. =e Quality was better than the avera Tops reached $6.85 for mixed ee Ww th straight droves of heifers at $6.7 A range of $5.25@6.25 took the bulk, ‘with the low spread down to $4.50. Minor Grades Show Strength. Cows were active sellers throughout the week’s trade. Monday the market ad- vanced a big dime, which was increased until the close finds cows of mediun) to good kill a good quarter higher than last week. Tops in several instances reached oe with the bulk selling from $4.50 to Canners and cutters have not enjoyed the full advance, but closed 10c to 15¢ higher than last Friday. A range of $3_to $3.75 caught the bulk of this class. Bulls regained some of last week’s loss and were strong sellers on a 10c to lc higher basis than last Friday's close. The stocker and feeder receipts have been light, and there {fs very little change in the price range as compared to a week ago. The Southern aggregate for the week shows a liberal increase over last week, in fact the first day's re- ceipts aggregated more than the total supply a week ago, In spite of the liberal showing the advances in na- tive cattle were evident in the quar- antine trade. Steers from Oklahoma and Texas predominated. Monday's market ruled strong to 10c higher and as little change took place in the late and midweek steers are selling about a dime above last week. Oklahoma beeves at $7.10 furnished the _ top, making a new record for this year. Several loads of good quality Arkan- sa8 beeves were included in the sup- ply and brought steady to _ strong prices. A load of these at $5.80 made the top for the week. The canner and cutter supply has been below normal and buyers have paid strong prices for all showings of this class. Light Receipts Advance Hogs. The smallest supply of the year was received last week, largely due to storms in Central and Northern Missouri, which hampered railroad traffic. Another cause is that it ts generally believed that hogs are searce tributary to the market. A good share of the hogs were good quality medium and heavyweights. No day was the supply even half suf- ficient to meet the demand. The market, owing to the small runs, was on the advance most of the week and prices reached a high- er basis than “ae have béen on for several weeks advance was close to 50c on good ‘quality offerings of all weights while those that were not good did not make so much gain. The top reached $6.70 while the bulk for the week sold at $6.30@6,50. Shippers and city butchers were the ones that forced prices up as the packers were bearish and did but little business as they were not will- ing to pay the prevailing prices, Best lights the latter part of the week sold at $6@6.50, best pigs $5.50@6, while some of the Southern pigs and lights went at $5 @5.50. Tht throw- outs sold largely at $6@6.30, Sheep Make Gain, A good supply was received each day and like for several weeks the greater Pg tte was lambs from the San Luis Valley, Colo., and most of them were good ‘quality and well fattened. A good number of Western locally fed were also on the market. The native offerings were few and none of them very good, but it ts not expected that many natives will Scene to market &t this season of the yea The market was active most of the time and prices jade a slight gain; advance. Best olorado lambs gold at $6.35@6.70, ir at $6@6.25, best native and Wez-erns $6.25 @6.50, culls all that were not fat $5@5.75, lightweight yearlings $5.30@ pe, beayy and fair quality yearlings $4. 75 Good sheep sold largely at $4.15@ 4.36, with the plainer offerings at $4@4.10. Those around $4 as a rule were ewes. The sheep that were not [ fat met a very poor demand as slaughterers did not want them and the demand from the country for stockers was poor. Bucks sold main- ly at Active Horse and Mule Week. The receipts of horses and mules last week were normal. The joint special sale, proved to be a big at- traction, more buyers arrivin "chai any week this year. The market all week showed much activity and a strong to higher market_ prevailed each day on all classes, The quality ruled very good, Sales reaching $559 for pairs and $310 for singles. Two days of the week was allotted to the sale of work and farm mares and were well attended. The receipts ef kind of mules common grade, ee = eac es Was entirely too small to supply the t demand.

SIRIKE COTTON MARKET FACTOR Trade Waiting to See If Fuel Shortage Will Close Big Foreign Mills. The cotton market continues in & waiting attitude. The labor troubles in England overshadow all other fea- tures affecting prospects and the trade awaits with anxiety the out- come of this difficulty. Some hope is expressed that the cotton mills of England have supplied themselves with coal, as well as cotton, sufficient to run for some time and are thus fortified against the possibility of having to shut down for lack of fuel and supplies, How far the Government may go in adjusting difficulties none can say. As has beén said before. so disas- trous would be a general strike that it is to be expected that the En- glish Government will resort to ex- treme measures rather than permit the general tie-up of all mines to continue. A sharp fluctuation in prices may be reasonably expected after so long @ suspense and traders are very cau- tious, pending a definite settlement of this affair. Good Trade Is Brisk. The dry goods markets are in good shape and demand for goods is suf- ficient to insure plenty of work for spinners and weavers, Inquiries from buyers continue, not only for imme- diate deliveries but also for several months ahead, Standara goods find ready sale at full prices and there ig a better in- quiry for specialties and fancy goods. Tendency is to advance prices and there is little opposition on the part of buyers as long as they can get the deliveries they wish. European spin- ners report continued good business and they are protecting themselves against forward sales by purchases of cotton. This demand from abroad has served to absorb a _ tremendous quantity of American cotton and to relieve any distress that might oth- erwise have been — from the very large crop being mavketed. The exports of cotton to date are nearly 500,000 bales more than the total exports of last year, in rough figures close to 8,000,000 bales, and there is no signs of diminution. Steamship agents report that freight room is still at a premium and booked for some time to come, The counted interior towns show decreas- ing stocks, the totals being not much above what they were at the same time last year. Against this shortage in the counted towns, it may be re- membered that there is yet a very large percentage of the crop to come forward, the stock in the small towns and the farmyards apparently is being very well held. Crop Preparations Slow. The weather throughout most of the cotton belt has been unfavorable for farm work and preparatons for the next crop are correspondingly behind. Unusually cold weather has prvailed over most of the belt, snow has fallen unusually far South, and while it has'given the soil the ben- efit of moisture, has prevented plow- ing and will tend in a measure to- wards decreased acreage. The spot markets are reported gen- erally steady and unchanged. The de- mand for cotton is sufficient to sus- tain prices and holders have been able to market their cotton freely without unduly depressing prices. In the principal spot centers quotations are nearly identical with prices pre- vailing last week. In Galveston the market is quoted steady, middling cotton at 10%ec; New Orleans steady, 10 7-16¢c; Mobile quiet, 10%c; Savan- nah steady, 10% c; Houston steady, 10 13-16c; Memphis steady, 10%c; St, iene steady, 10%c; Augusta steady, Cc.

‘indicated similar views, TIN FRE SUGAR AND INCOME TAX 10 PASS IN TEN DAYS Insurgents in Lower Body Favor Measure, but Several Senate Democrats Oppose It. bins ENGLISH SCHEME Borah Believes Plan Constitu- tional, Others Call-It Big Constructive Stroke. By Wire From the Washington Bu- reau of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, March 2.—The com- bination plan for free sugar and a tax on incomes was received by sen- ators today with a variety of emo- tion, and was not especially popular with any faction. A separation of the two propositions would have proven more acceptable. Democratic senators manifested a disposition to stand by the House, but Senators Foster and Thornton of Louisiana, frankly declared that free Sugar would spell ruin in their State and that they would oppose. the measures intreduced to the last ex- tremity. Senator Bailey proclaimed himself a tariff for revenue only Democrat. He will vote for no bill that placés any article on the free list. He believes every industry should pay its proportionate share of the revenue necessary to maintain the Government. Goes Too Far, Says Gore, | Senator Gore thought the House plan went too far. He was not pre- pared to announce opposition to &, but belleved the reductfiong in tariff duties should be equitably distrib- uted and not placed upon a. few. in- dustries. Two or three othe# Demo- crats were inclined to support the view taken by Gore. It also became apparent that the two Florida senators might affiliate with those from Louisiana in oppos- ing free sugar. In addition, indica- tions: pointed to other disaffected ones. It immediately became appar- ent that a unanmious vote could not be obtained from the Senate Demo- crats for the House sugar and income tax program. Under the most favorable circum- stances three votes will be cast against the measures. Republicans Oppose Plan, The preponderance of sentiment among Progressive Republican Sena- tors is opposed to the combination. All of them strongly advocate an in- come tax, but say that legislation is well on the road to consummation and no further enactment at this time is required, The placing of sugar on the free list, with a compensating tax on incomes, is declared by the progressives to be neither Republican nor Democratic doctrine, but pat- terned after the English system. The preposition, they say, is nothing but free trade, and all of them ¢laim to be Republicans and in favor of a lim- ited protection by the tariff. Senator Bristow, who has made a specialty of seeking revision of the sugar schedule of the Payne-Aldrich act, said this afternoon that the House combination was simple free trade and a transplanting of the En- gliish scheme. He could not give it his indorsement. Other progressives Littie Chance tm Senate. Senator Borah, who has stoutly in- sisted on an income tax, said he be- lieved the House plan was constitu- tional. He thought it would be sus- tained by the Supreme Court. The regular Republicans will op- pose the House bills with all the force and ingenuity they possess. They will welcome all assistance coming from the Democrats and pro- gressives. As it stands now the House amal- gamation of free sugar and a tax on incomes has little, if any chance, of success in the Senate, Almost per- fect team work between the Demo- crats and progressives is essential to the passage of any measure antagon- ized by the regulars, Unless senti- ment changes there cannot be an ef- fective coalition arranged. between these factions. Conversions must be made from those now violently op- posed to the suggested legislation, Passage in 10 Days. Former Speaker Cannon, who calls “political buncombe,” his little following of standpatters and a few Democrats who represent sugar raising states, were the only mem- hers of the House who criticised the action of the Democratic. caucus for deciding to put sugar on the free list and raise the revenue loss there- by through an income tax. The rank and file of the Democratic party said they believed the action of the cau- cus was the greatest stroke of con- structive statesmanshi Congress has inaugurated in a decade. Most of the Republican insurgents agreed with the Democrats and will vote for the joint proposition. The sugar schedule and the excise tax will be passed by the House in about ten days. Speaker Clark would not venture an opinion on the constitutionality of the excise tax. “I have advoeated |

an income tax ever since I have been old enough to know anything about. public. affairs and economic ques-! tions.” he said, “The graduated in- come tax, with reasonable exemption, is the finest and justest tax that ever was levied. I began referring to it in my first term in Congress, and have been at it ever since, and ex- pect to keep at it until it is put upon te statute books.”

Insurgents Measure. Representative - Underwood and members of the Ways and Means Committee, which is supposed to be | composed of the best lawyers in the a

tain of the constitutionality of the proposed law they would not have presented it to the caucus, Representative Norris, Republican insurgent, said he would vote for the bill. stitutional

_— a leading “It's just as con-

as the _corporation tax, SUNDAY MORNING, MARCH 3, 1912, which the Supreme, Court has up- held,” he said, “and it is one of the most equitable methods of taxation conceivable.’ Representative publican insurgent of Minnesota, con~- curred in Norris’ opinion. Represent- Anderson, a Re-

ative Lenroot, one of the most radi- cal Republican insurgents, said he has not had an opportunity to decide posed law, but hoped to be convinced that it was constitutional, as he de- sired to vote in favor of such a tax.

ller Doesn’t Speak to John

Years Younger Brother Has Been at Outs With Oil King Because of Business Methods— Withdrew Self and Family From Magnate’s Church and Removed Bodies of ' Children From Burial Lot Held Jointly— Freely Admits Bitterness in Court. HAT does your brother, ‘*T don’t know, str. we This admission made by Mr. Mr. John D. Rockefeller, pay his chauffeur ?’’ I haven’t spoken to him for 12 years.’’ Frank Rockefeller, youngest brother of the richest man in the world, while on the witness stand in a suit against him the other day, astonished those wio heard it. Frank Rockefeller did more than make the admission to the attorney. The tone in which he replied and the look of hatred which appeared at the mention of his broth- er’s name told that the long quarrel between the brothers was as bitter as ever. The hat,ed which Frank Rockefeller has for the great oil king has been so in- tense us to cause him and his wife to withdraw from the Euclid Avenue Baptist Church, because they would worship no longer in a church of which John D. Rockefeller is a member, and to exhume the bodies of their two children from the Rockefeller lot in Lz}-¢ View Jen: t ry because they do not want « near the remains of John D. Rockefeller.

HE first serious break be- tween the brothera came at the time the Standard Oi! Co. was in process oi: formation; when the company was absorbing every oil re- finerv it could get wit.- in its grasp. Frank Rockefeller owned a re- finery at that time. He wanted to remain inde- pendent of the Standarua. ut his brother Is said to have foreed him out of the business, as he had forced out otber men. This break in the relations of the brothers con- }tinued two o: three years. Finally there was a reconciliation. Frank was taken into the Stand. ard Old Co, and made its vice-president. But the friendly ielatiousiiy aid not couti.uc. brane Roc*efeller withdrew from the Standard and went into the iron ore business with James Cor- rigan. This partue:ship resuited iu a lohg ané bitter fight between the partne:s on one side and John D. Rockefeller on the other, and caused the split between the brothers which has never been healed. f sy tS Ys James Corrigan, like Frank Rocxefeiler, was one of the victims of the Standard 1! So. He. like Frank, was an independent refiner of pe- troleum. He was a boyhood fiiend o' the Rock.- fellers. He was ingenious and a born inventor. He devised processes for refining petroleum which placed him ahead of many of the other efiners. he prospered, Jonn D. Rockefeller -sied to induce him to sell to the Standard 2 refused, but finally was rorced to yield. He s* Standard Oh) stocs in payment for his pro - erty. But he did not keep it.

the Standard Uil stock owned by Frank Rocke- feller When Corrigan was forced out of the refining business he and Frank Rockefeller went into the iron ore trade. They bought the Fran,lin mine or the Messaba range on L:e Supenmor and placed a fleet of steamers and schooners on the lakes. Hard times came on soon afterward. Corrigan became pressed for money. He went to John D. Kocsefeller, his boyhood friend, and brother of his business partner, for a lean. John D. promptly advanced Corrigan $160,000 at 7 per cent interest. He took Stencard Oj) stock as collateral. At. his suggestion Corvigan also

They were shown to me by some of the “natives,” who provided cups, spoons and pepper and salt. Dipping up what appeared to be pure water, seasoning to suit taste, I partook of what a moment before was bubbling up ont of the ground, to find that I was drinking what tasted like chicken soup. It was good, too, and hot. True, it was “thin” as water and the taste was not strong enouch to put a “feather edge” on it, but nevertheless, ir had unmicta’ ably the chicken flavor, and, obviously, it was gpring chicken at that. ALFRED TOMSON. St. Louis, Feb. 6. turned over to him a loan of $125,000 which Cor- rigan had made from the Citizens’ Savings and Loan Co. of Cleveland. Corrigan placed 1200 more Standard Oil certificates in his hands for security. Rocxefeller then had all of Corrigan’s Standard Oi] interests, which he held in trust ay security for money aivanced. ALout that time Franx Roc..efeliler also was forced to borrow money. He, too, went to his brother for a loan. John D. Rockefeller § ada- vanced the loan, but induc:d Corrigan to indorse his notes. For security for the indorsement he required Corrigan to place in his hands 4930 shares of stock of the Franklin Mining Co. to secure the indorsement. Matters were in this state when the panic of 1893 came on. A note tor $46,000 against Cor- rigan came due. Coirigan did not have the money to meet it. He then owed John D. Rock- efeller $402,000. He claimed that the security ir Standard and shipping stock which he had placed in Rockefeller’s hands. was worth fully 700.000. He asked Rockefeller to release the mining stock which he held as security for his indorsement on Frank Rockefeller’s note. He told Rockefeller that with this stock released te could secure loans which would greatly relieve his crippled financial condition. Without it, he feared that he would be forced into a personal assignment. John D. Roc efeller refused to comply with the request, it is said, but told Corrigan that he would better sell to him some of his Standard Oil certificates. This, he said, would bring about a OIOUN D. ROCKFFELLER.

the desired relief. Corrigan did not want to sell. His Standard Oil certificates were his only source of income at that time. Besides, they were the result of his early efforts in the oil busi- ness, There was a sentimental as well as a busi- ness reason why he did not waat to dispose of bis oil shares. Frank Rockefeller went to his brother to plead for the release of Corrigan’s mining stock. The pleading was wituout avail. Jobn D. told Frank, it is claimed, that Corrigan was rapidly going to the wall, and that he might as well have his Standard Oil stock as to have it go to some- one else. Corrigan became desperate and made further appeals to Rockefeller for relief. Rockefeller in- .eted upon his selling the Standard Oil stock. The late Judge Stevenson Burke, counsel for Corrigan, obtained a considerable amount of money for his client. hut when Corrigan too* it ty» Rockefeller to meet his oblivations, Rockefeller recused to He said that the debt was not all due. In refusing to accept the money, Roc'efeller was following a lifelong rule to accept no part of a loan until the entire amount is due.

Judge Burke held that Rockefeller had no legal right to buy the stock which he had held in trust, as he had several times refusec Corrigan and Frank Rockefeller an accounting when they had demanded it. By this retural it was con- tended, Corrigan and r'rank hocseleller were .ept in ignorance of the true value of their oiandard Oil stock. It is said that Rockefeller denied the re- quests for an accounting on the ground that to comply with the request would reveal some of the secrets of the trust. He told Corrigan and Frank Rockefeller that if they knew none of the inner workings of the trust they copd tell nothing, and that they might be subpenaed in some investigation the Government or State Legislature might start. The case was fought hard in the courts, and John D. Rockefeller won. Judge Lamson of the Common Pleas Court of Cuyahoga County ren- dered his decision Sept. 26, 1900. No word has possed between the brothers from that time to this, according to the admission made by Frank Koc. efeller on the witness stand tne other day. shortly after the decision was rendered Frank Roc' efeller, his wife and three daughters, Alice, Annie and Helen, withdrew from the Euclid Avenue Bapti:t Church. The church was one of the most rash:onable in the city. The Rocsefel- lers had aiways been among the most promi- nent members. Frank was a trustee. John D. was the superintendent of the Sunday school, and he still ho..s that “I do not believe in placing Caesarism before Christianity,” said Frank Rockefeller .n uis let- ter to the board in withdrawing from the church where he and his family had worshiped for years. He did net in the letter, T Osborn, a member of the board, oe eee —_— mertion the 2° “ne of his brother but the trustees, according to A. knew that office. ~ he referred to John D.

And when, after nearly two months of im- prisonment she still remained obdurate and the State had made out a case against three members of the quartet of defendants and sent them to the penitentiary without her aid, Miss Hogan was given her liberty, she had only this comment to make: “Well, they didn’t make me talk, anyway.” 4 Viewed from all angles the case is a remark- tg ‘able one, the most remarkable, old lawyers 8ay, since the famous case of Rebecca Jones, who some decades ago, was sent to the Ludlow Street jail.in New York for refusing to answer a ques- tion in the celebrated Gordon Hammersley will suit and who spent more than a year behind the bars before she was given her freedom.

Miss Hogan had, a short time ‘previously, inherited about $2000 through the PF adeath of her mother. - She had been brought up at Coal City, Il, ‘amid none too luxurious surroundings and ac- # cording to the Biblical injunction had earned her bread by the sweat of her brow so that now ‘at the age of 45 she no fonger retained the ange which might be expected to appeal to ot] fancies of a young professional man, as or.

The safest place to keep your roll ig right in your own stocking.” Miss Hogan followed his advice. One afternoon, having wearied of waiting in his office for patients, Dr. Sissinger went to a moving picture show in the vicinity and there, as the confessions afterwards revealed, he struck up an acquaintance with a young fell6bw named Curtin R. Young, otherwise known as “Happy Young.” Young had been holding a job addressing en- velopes at $15 a week, and the conversation drifted to the mutually interesting topic of the scarcity of funds which could provide a more easy and luxurious life. Then and there, also according to subsequent confessions, Sissinger broached the subject of the fortune tucked away in Miss Hogan’s stocking and the two mapped out a p*ogram for coming into possession of the treasure. The program was to consist of getting Miss Hogan to the oculist’s office some evening and there to stage a real life holdup with the doc- tor as one of the supposed victims, after which they were to meet and divide the proceeds, name. ly the Hogan fortune.

and finally how they were so well posted on the fact that the money was concealed in her stock- ing. He thereupon took the oculist into a private room and in a short time, by those gentle per- suasive methods sometimes resorted to by the police, had secured a complete confession and was on his way-with Sissinger to keep the lat- ter’s appointment with Young for the purpose of splitting the money. 7 as ae Young was in bed at the appointed place with $1080 of the money under his pillow.

of them immediately went into the roum where Miss Hogan was concealed and forcibly took the money, $1756, from itg hiding place while “Hap- py” Young went through the performance of tying the oculist’s wrists and ankles. When the robbers had departed, Miss Hogan emerged and set the oculist free, urging him to accompany her at once to a police station to report the’crime. He suggested that the rob- bers were probably frequenters of the neighbor- hood and induced her to make the round of a number. of saloons in the vicinity in search of the thieves. After two hours spent in this fash- ion, giving the robbers ample time to get away from the vicinity, Miss Hogan and Sissinger appeared at the police station and told their stories. Police Sergeant Frank Bernard thought he “smelled a rat.” He couldn’t understand why there had been so much delay in réporting nor how the men happened to know that Miss Ho- gan was in the oculist’s office at all and partic- ularly in the side room where she was hiding plices and one of the mysteries which the police bave been unable to solve to this say is why the two “gun-men’”’ accomplices ailowed Young, a novice, to retain any of the money or why Young actually waited for the meeting with Sissinger instead of fleeing with the money. The circum- stances tend to strengthen the saying about “honor among thieves.” After a time the other two men were rounded up, there was a preliminary hearing in the po- lice court where Miss Hogan testified freely enough, and the quartet were held to the grand jury and indicted and later released on bail. Then later on the time for the trial arrived and it was discovered that not only Sissinger, but Miss Hogan as well had disappeared, and here begins the strangest part of the story. Weeks of search resulted in locating Migs Hogan and Sissinger in Detroit. The recovered money wag still in possession of the police as evidence except $150 which the court had per- mitted the woman to draw for living expenses inasmuch as she was penniless. The authorities had power to extradite Sis- singer, but could not compel Miss Hogan to re- turn to Chicago as a witness until it wag learned that she had carried away with her some mort- gaged property on the strength of which a war- rant was issued and the pair brought back. By this time it was palpably evident that Miss Hogan would prove an unwilling witness, at least against Sissinger, but Assistant State's Attorney Frederic Burnham, who/ had been as- signed to prosecute the case, felt) that once he tll got the woman on the witness stand, he couiJd by the lawyer’s art of examination. trick her into supplying before the jury the nevessary evi- dence of the corpus delecti which she wag try- ing to withhold. But “woman’s will” had not been reckoned with.

So the case was continued in the hope that she would exercise that other paramount priv- ilege of womankind and “change her mind,” and she was sent back to jail with many well-meant wolds of warning and advice, to think it over. That was on Jan. 5. On six different occasions since that date, Miss Hogan has been brought into court and given the opportunity to testify, but neither threats, argument nor friendly admonition availed. Not even when Judge Honore, with the money, impounded as evidence in the case in plain view, inquired {n a voice audible in a’! parts of the court room, whether any person present de- sired to make a claim to its ownership, did Miss Hogan unseal her lips nor give any sign of con- cern. On the motion of the prosecuting attorney, who declared that the limit had been reached, she was given one final chance to purge herself — iof contempt, but remained mute and obdurate and Judge Honore imposed a sentence of six months in jail and a fine of $1700, practically the amount of which she had been robbed.

COLUMBUS SAW INDIANS ‘SMOKING CIGARETTES smoked, chewed or snuffed—-when, in fact, tobacco was unknown. But before the dis- covery of America the Old World had never im- agined tobacco and its delights. Christopher Columbus and hig followers were the first from the Eastern Hemisphere to see men smoking. — When they landed on Oct. 12, 1492, on the island to which he gave the name San Salvador, they beheld to their astonishment a group of natives sitting on the shore puffing clouds of smoke from their lips and nostrils. On closer inspection it was found that the dried leaveg of some herb were wrapped in the leaves of the maize or corn plants and formed into cylindrical rolls, one end of which was put into the mouth, the other kindled and the smoke was drawn in and puffed out again. In short, the Indians were smoking cigarettes. These the natives | is difficult to imagine a time when no one SUNDAY MAGAZINE -ST.

Tobacco was first put upon the stage by Ben Jonson in “Every Man in- His Humour,” in which Capt. Bobadil and his men are introduced smoking pipes and are contemptuously referred to in stage directions as “a rout of stinkards.” And the fierce captain speaks this panegyric of the weed: “I have been in the Indies where this herb grows, and where neither myself nor a dozen gentlemen more of my knowledge have received the taste of any nutriment in the world for the space of nine and twenty weeks but the fumes of this simple herb.

EIGHT LITTLE GUINEA PIGS LLIGATORS, skunks, guinea pigs, cats, rats, deer, ostriches and blood- hounds are the queer “crops” now being culti- vated, or about to be cul- tivated, on “farms” in Missouri and oiher state: of the West and South- west. Instead of the staples of wheat, cotton ana corn, certain enterprising “agriculturists” are de- veloping products. that fly with wings or go on legs. The new industry is due in part to a reversion to the old trapping spirit, reawakened by the present increase in the price of furs; in part, to the growth of luxury, as in the farming of ostriches; and in part to the demands of science and justice, as in the culture of guinea pigs and bloodhounds. Perhaps the most extraordinary and unexpect- ed of these “animal farms” is that devoted to skunks and conducted by Obdllie E. Wedding at Jerseyville, Ill., 40 miles north of St. Louis. He declares that his bank account has prospered this fall and winter through the sale of the furs of this unpleasant little beast, which, heretofore, has been rather avoided than sought as a source of profit. OA eee } =: Skunk Pelts Bring $2 to $4.

lt i i a i eee Wedding is a native of western Jersey County, where trappers and game are sstill numerous. Skunks are plentiful, and it was discovered that their pelts command a market at from $2 to $4 apiece. After shipping furs in small quantities, he conceived the idea of establishing a skunk corral in the loft of his barn. This was early in the autumn, and wile he sold the animals in ,numbers during the season, he kept 30 of the finest syecimens until after the recent cold spell, as skunk fur reaches its prime only after severe veather sets in. Most of these he disposed of about two wees ago at good prices. Others he a .decided to keep for an experiment of breeding in captivity in the spring. The animals, Wedding Says, improve in con- -finement, the fur taking on a glossiness pleasing

Wedding doesn't altogether nose” in his nocturnal expeditions. of trusty dogs, which are his chief aids. The dogs are well trained and immune. They bring the animals to bay in the open and hold them prisoners until Wedding arrives, and, quick as a flash, thrusts them into a wheat sack. They are carried home and turned into the corral with the other captives. Often Wedding is not dis- turbed at all. The dogs are so well trained that frequently the skunk puts up no fight, and it is only when forced to battle that the animal re- sorts to its malodorous weapon of self-defense. While Wedding specializes on skunks, he does not confine his efforts to capturing these ani- mals only. Early in the season, when an abun- dant persimmon crop and frosty nights made it mere play to capture "possums, he had as many as fifteen of these animals in the corral with the skunks. The skunks and ‘possums got along together cordially, and Wedding thought he had the barn loft boarded up past all danger of escape. But the ‘possums, wise in ’possum science, hit upon a plan to gnaw their ~way through the roof. Five made their escape, and Wedding woke next morning to find two reposing on the roof of the barn, whileeothers took refuge in a neighboring straw stack and were slaughtered by the young- sters of the neghborhood. Wedding then killed “follow his own He has a pair GUINEA PIG TOWN: | WHERE EIGHT HUNDRED PIGS WILL BE BRED THIS YEAR

the other ‘possums. Their hides used _to be al- most worthless, but now that the price of furs has advanced, they bring about $1 apiece. Wedding also makes long trips into the country and traps not a few mink, which are found in numbers in the locality. hese animals bring ar average of $6 apiece and some very fine speci- mens have sold for as high as $9 this season. The production of furs has grown to be an in- dustry in Jersey County. During the trapping season of 1910-11 fully $10,000 worth of furs was exported, and during the month of December, 1911, one shipper alone bought $1000 worth of furs. The chief furs produced are the raccoon, skunk, mink, muskrat, opossum and fox. It is not un- usual to meet a skunk on the edge of town after night has fallen. The skunk is the chief fur producer now, though the mink is taken in con- siderable numbers. One of the most interesting industrial institu- tions} in Saline County, Kansas, is the pet stock farm \of Prof. J. C. Page, a mile and a half south- east of Salina. Everything in the nature of pet stock /and domestic animals, except the swine and the mule, is to be found on the farm. Probably) the most interesting of the pets are the several families of cavies, more commonly called guinea pigs. The guinea pig business on the Page farm is a pretty big thing this year; the output is ex- pected to reach six to eight hundred pigs. At present there are about three hundred pigs on the farm. Because of the constant demand for guinea pigs, Prof. Page intends to go farther into the

© COLLIE £ WEDDING, THE JERSEYVILLE om SKUNK rT bi.siness, and if necessary he will devecre his en- tire 10-acre farm to the industry. It was three years ago that Prof. Page purchased a family of guinea pigs, one male and three females, an in- vestment of $6. The first year, without any at- tempt at making a profit, he cleared $18. Today he has standing orders from medical schools and universities in a dozen states for all the off-color pigs and culls that he can produce on his farm, and two hundred or three hundred of the pigs were sold for scientific tests last year. It is not a difficult matter to sell a well-marked pig to breeders and to persons who wish to make their children presents of pets. Well-marked pigs are worth anywhere from $1.50 to $5 a pair. Prof. Page has several pairs of the little animals that could not be bought for $15 a pair. On a visit to the pens of these guinea pigs, one will see the pure white pigs, jet black pigs, red pigs, spotted pigs and pigs of all sizes and ages. To get a pig of three colors is what the breed- ers have been working at for several years, and Prof. Page has one on his place. It is white, black and red, and almost perfectly marked. He has several that are white and black and others that are white and red, or black and red. He has the Brazilian, English and the Abyssinian pigs. Of these the Abyssinian is probably the most in- teresting, the fur being long and pointing in every direction. At intervals over the body the fur forms into rings o1 rosettes. He is just intro- ducing the Peruvian pig. This has such long fur that the animal can completely hide itself within i‘s own hair, so that neither its head nor feet can be seen. The hair is frequently ten or tweive inches long. Guinea Pigs Scrupulously Clean. PRR RRL LALLA AL AL AL AL AL A The guinea pigs on this farm produce young every 80 days and the females become mothers at the age of 88 days. They give birth to from yne to eight at a time. The guinea pigs are great pets and wili recognize their master as quickly as will any other animal on the farm. They are scrupulously clean-and would starve al- most to d2ath before they would cross a mudhole or a soiled floor for something to eat. Prof. Page says that the name “pig” sult to the cavie, as there is nothing about it resembling tne swine family. Guinea pig is a name that was given to the cavie some years ago when the little animal was introduced into England for food purposes and sold at a guinea apiece. If kept in a filthy house the animals will pine away and die, and it is necessary !.ere- fore that their houses be kept in verfect sanitary conditicn. The guinea pigs on the Page farm live in lit- tle houses from three to five feet square and about four feet high. The houses are supplied with shelves and little boxes, pieces of tiling and lead pipe, all covered with hay, either prairie or alfalfa. The pigs burrow under the hay and make their homes as comfortable as_ possible, while the pipes are used to travel through and the boxes to perch themselves upon when they want to look about. They are fed upon oats, soft food, and alfalfa hay and kaffir corn. If given green stuff, such as cabbage, apples and green leaves, the pigs will not ‘drink a teaspoonful of water in months. They eat but little, and sev- eral hundred of them can be maintained at very small expense and in little space.

FRANK S. — CARTOONIST, RE club women capable of editing and publishing a daily rewspaper and making big money out of the advertising and the street sales? Are they? They are! They have proved it. On Washington’s birth- day the ciuh women of Hot Springs, the famous health resort of Arkan- sas, edited and published the New Era, one of the leading newspapers of the city. They did every- thing except the mechanical work, and the ver- dict uf the regular editor and publishers and the general public is that they more than made good. Though the young women “newsies” who sold the e@ition on the streets, in the hotels and business places did not howl, it may ~e said that the paper that day was a howling success, and copies have been mailed by Hot Springs visitors tu their friends in hundreds of places throughout the country to show that the women of the beau- tiful Arkansas watering place have noses for news and ideas for editorials, not to speak of an eye for business. Though the club women had “lots of fun” in issuing the New Era, they did not do it for fun. They did it for sweet charity’s sake, in a place where ciarity at this season of the year is sorely needed. ~ Hot Springs is the Mecca for the poor of the world, as well as for the rich, who go thither to seek relief from mental and physical ills by tak- ing the baths in the curative hot waters of the springs that bubble from underneath the moun- tain. ; th le Seagate Beggars’ Problem Pressing. Receutly the United Charity Association was formed, with a view to solving the problem of looking atter the many beggars who go to Hot Springs, take stations on the streets and solicit alms from visitors who are more fortunate. Resi- dents and city authorities felt that this situation save the iesort a bad name, so the various charity 0.B4uiZations combined for a united movement. Mayor Waters is president. Leading bankers an¢é ministers are prominent in the membership. Some of the principal business men are on the board of governors. Much money was required to keep the United Charity Association going, and soon che excheque: showed signs of distress, Something must be dune, and done quickly. What should it be? The men were weary of supplying funds trom their own pockets to keep the movement going. I their extremity they turned to man's best friend and helpmeet, woman, lovely weman. There are many women's clubs in Hot Springs, which reason of its being a resort for both the well and the afflicted from all over the country has become Arkansas’ center of culture.

Tty agreed to give ™ the women free rein for the day, stipulating onl; that all profits from such advertisements as they could secure and from the street sales should ex to the United Charity Association. The president of each club was requested tc appoint one delegate, who was to act as member of the Board of Directors, and this body woulc select the editors and reporters and fill every department of the paper. The proposal] met with instant approbation Hot Springs club women pride themselves on heing as brigh? as any of their progressive sisters in the United States, and they “jumped at the offer.” Would they publish a paper? Could they do it? Well, rather! At first they had no idea that the work was so great, but they were game. They felt that the newspaper men haa put them on their mettle and they had just enough pride to show residents and visitors that publishing a newspaper could be accomplished with the same success that ‘“‘pa- pers” were prepared and read at their regular meetings. Several meetings were held with the new Er: representatives, who a‘vised them on the many details which the ladies would encounter in their work.

The difference in their ages accounts or that. He simply liked her. If she needed a champion, he was on hand. He carried her skates in winter and her books in summer. By and by he began to think she was just the fairest little Maid in all of Chatham, which to him meant all he earth, his map not stretching far. And then ae the call to the outer world, and Hawley Chatham, waved away at the station by diy handkerghiefs, and kept from choking— ~ mt awful lump being in his throat—by the timely ; nce of the talkative brakeman. -_ potential figure in the village—like as not cb? Payn, politician—had found him a job in @ railroad office in New York. "At the first opportunity Hawley went back { > Chatham on a visit. Florence Hanor hada a older, bigger and fairer, a fact which had not been permitted to go unnoticed by the young j fellows, but she was still a girl, and Hawley had peached young manhood. | " Ordinarily, when a young man once of the vil- returns with the swing and assurance of ithe city, it makes a deep and lasting impression ‘on the girls, but for one reason or another Flor- enc Hanor was not entirely overcome by the ap- pearance of Ed Hawley.

Those who write with great authority on such topics, and there are many, say that at 30 a man knows his own mind. Hawley sought out Miss Hanor, now of early marriageable age, and by common consent a belle. But he did not hear the answering “yes.” A few hours, even as the trains run on the Harlem, saw Hawley back in New York, with his thin lips hard set. Here, perhaps, as well as further along, it may be set down that Florence Hanor later becaur the wife of the son of Lou Payn, the Republican boss of the Hudson River counties. They did not live as happily as they imagined they would at the start, and the courts undid the parson’s work and made her free to marry again, which she did. CHAPTER Iii. HE story of Hawley, the money-getter, oddly enough, has its real start at the point where Hawley, the rejected suitor, a scowl ov his face, resumed his post in the Southern Pa- cific offices. By the retirement of one man, the promotion of another and the beginning of a per- sonal acquaintance with the venerable and be- whiskered head of the system, Hawley ceased to be an understrapper. He was appointed to a post where he came in contact only with the live wires—and he became one himself. One may draw down good pay by cleverness in attracting shippers with heavy tonnage and iong hauls, but in railroading all stops outside of Wall street are way stations. Hawley quit the way stationer He got close to the heart of things. He resigned the money drawer for the safe. | Recounting in detail the various steps by which Ed Hawley moved forward in concrete railroading would be, in a way, statistical. Dates are not so important in gauging a man’s work. Before Huntington died Hawley had risen to a vice-presidency of the Southern Pacific system and had more than once stood behind his own comprehensive opinions in matters involving big ‘moves, and he had won out and his views had proved to be right. With the passing of Huntington came simul- tuneously the opportunity for two men to de- velop. One was E. H. Harriman, the other Edwin Hawley. Students of men and conditions noted the paralle] between these two when they were both alive, and have noted it recently, now that both are dead. They were both countiy boys, both small fry in railroads at the start, both a part of the larger game Which finds the great terminal under the shadow bf the Stock Exchange and both died turned 60,\still reaching out for more. Harriman, bigger and bolder than Hawley, want- ed the control of the Southern Pacific. He need- ed the help of Hawley to acquire it. Hawley gave him that help and Harriman got the road. It cost many millions in money. Hawley became a partner of Harriman in transcontinental] traf- fic and remained his partner until conflicting am- bitions forced them to part. Long before Harriman’s wasted frame was car- ried over the Orange hills to a rock-hewn mauso- leum, Hawley’s method had carried him along t» a position of great individual strength and power in the clique which directs things in Wall street. He followed in a way the early Morgan formula of picking up a railroad here and there, as it lay on the bargain counter, and giving to it his absorbing attention until the larger totals showed on the credit side of the road’s ledgers and its bonds became real] assets and its stock good for a dividend. It requires capital to do this. It requires some- thing more tangible than conversation to get capital. Hawley borrowed money cautiously— on a number of occasions when, as those who are familiar with Wal! Street know, one man reaches out to take that which another calls his pivp erty, believing that he is not prepared to hold it, “absorbers set out to transfer Hawley properties to their own pockets: “How are his loans?” was asked on these occa- sions, and the answer almost invariably was thai they wee time loaus, properly secured. Time i: everything in Wall st. eet. Once he went into cotton with such men as Gates, who was a gamester, and Sully, who was a trickster. They formed a-pool to buy and hold the speculative staple until the call for it would become insistent, at which time they were to un- load and take th’ profits. These men u'¢ed to meet in what was called the gold room «f the Hoffman House, and divide the night bet .een poker and the pool, with the cards held close in either case. It was with Gates as an opponent on another occasion that the incident occurred which gave birth to the poker story which Hawley delighted t»> hear, but never contirmed. He and Gates were on their way to Frisco and started to play poker just as the train pulled out of Philadelphia. Tur two men had pat hands. They sta:ted to back their cards and judgment, and, as the p:oper exaggera- tion is dropped into the narrative, they were ap- proaching Pittsburg and neither had weakened “Ed,” said Gates, ‘“‘this is only a friendly game, and I don’t want to break you. I'*- got you beat.” “Never mind me,” was Hawley’s reply. “I raise you again, and I might as well tell you that Ill stand pat on these five tickets until we see the Rockies.” Gates finally called. Hawley flush. Gates had four aces. “Ed.” said Gates, “I’d have bet that yours around the world.” “Huh,” returned Hawley, destination is Frisco.” CHAPTER Jil. A PART from those whe siide the ticker tape showed a straight hand of “so would I, but our through their fir.ers day after day, the railroad gro:.p, and the Chatham folk, not one in a hundred knew that kd Hawley had lived until the announcement of his death established the fact. He was another of the “un- known millionaires.” Hawley died at 19 Kast Sixtieth street. He bought this dwelling from Henry F. Dimock and spent part of $100,000 in reshaping its interior tc conform to his notions. His country home at Babylon, called Effingham Towers, is oie of the show places of the south shore of Long Is- land. Its many acres are laid out in bridle paths and modern gardens and a lake occupies a share of the inclosure. The villa itself was built to embrace certain ideas of arcaitecture borrowed from castles of medieval times. According to one who had been a visitor there, an underground passage connect- ed the villa with the stables, a staircase open- ing from the former at a point where the casual observer would not be able to detect it. The chatelaine of those two establishments was, and still may be, one Margaret Cameron. And Hawley was a bachelor. Long before Hawley adopted the habits of his later life, he found pleasure in sharing the com- forts and ease of his country home with mem- bers of his family from Chatham, a sister or a brother, but with the coming of Miss Cameron, who among neighborhood tradesmen had _ the classification of housekeeper, those periodical vis- its became less frequent and by degrees more formal until, for the most part, they ceased al- together. Stories have been told of clashes be- tween Miss Cameron, who is little more than half the age of the former master at Effingham Towers, and those of his kin who at times lived urder its great roof. They need not be repeate«a here. At best they must be hearsay. Hawley’s fondness for his old Chatham folk in the early days of his prosperity was most marked. He took his brother Frank, a convivial chap known as “Kid,” to make his place among the sons of Ezra, into his office, where he re- mained until he chose to leave. He took his sis- ter’s son, Fred Crandell, under his financial wing aad started him along the money-getting way, and when he fatle4 to conform to the fules ag laid down for him in matters official as well as per-| ~~ sonal, and was shunted to one side, still another nephew—Walter S. Crandell—found the door open and a desk and opportunity waiting.

A sidelielt, reflecting the bitterness with which liawiey contemplated single love making among others, is shown in his treatment Of his favorite nephew, Fred. Hawley had established him in his own office, and it was common talk back in the village that Fred had a preferred place in his uncle’s good graces, with all that would some time go with it in money. But Fred made the fatal mistake of finding a sweetheart in the person of a nimble-fingered typist in the office, Miss Me- Mahon by name. One may not hide sentimental attachments in a railroad office where there are many pairs of eyes. Others saw it Hawley heard of it. A raid on his most important stocks could not have disturbed him more than did this news. He actually stormed. The young map resented avuncular interference in a matter so essentially personal, and at their meeting made bold so to assert himself. Hawley warned him that his choice lay- be- tween love and business, Cupid and the door. “Stop it at once or out you go,” was ive ulti- matum. married, and was young,’ justify himself. want anyone to marry. Hawley was that he was an old man at 2v,” Up to the time that denesit strong box or hidden compartment or desk has disclosed a Hawley will. That he had made two is known. Perhaps he made a third.

There will be enough to turn the aggregate hea‘

ie bea 1 at sight of his nephew, of the man who had 3 succeeded in dissipating by his very pe every cloud on the misanthrope’s brow, even | ao ef him Lora Radciyfe seemed to shrink within if, his face became almost ashen in its pallor, ns i lines of cruel hardness quite disfigured his mouth. i Want to be alone today,” he said dryly. “Tell therm #0 send me up some tea in the afternoon. I'll go to my now—I shan’t want any dinner.” # CHAPTER IX. + WHICH TELLS OF THE INEVITABLE RESULT. - @ ND now a month and more had gone by, and the whole aspect of the world and of life was changed for Luke. Not for Louisa, aeenee she, Woman-like, had her life in love and love alone. “Love Was unchanged, or if changed at all it was ennobled, revivified, purified by the halo of sorrow and of abnega- tion which glorified it with its radiance. For Luke the world had indeed changed. With the “vent of Philip de Mountford that spring afternoon nto the old house in Grosvenor Square, life for the other nephew—for Luke, once the dearly loved—became together different. » The one moment of softness, when Lord Radclyffe—a bent and broken old man—went from the library up the Stairs to his own room, determined to be alone, and gently removed Luke’s affectionate hand from his own bowed shoulders, that one moment of softness was the Jast that passed between uncle —almost father — and ‘Rephew. After that, coldness and cynicism; the same 2s ‘the old man had meted out to every one around him— ' fave Luke—for years past. Now there was no excep- tton. . Coldness and cynicism to all; and to the intruder, the new comer, to Philip de Mountford, an unvarying 2 _eourtesy and constant deference that at times verged @n impassive submission. The day following the first momentous interview, Lord Radclyffe spent in lawyers’ company—Mr. Davies in - Pinsbury Court, then Mr. Pobson in Bedford Row. The fatter argued and counsekd. Though papers might be to all appearances correct and quite in order, there was _@0 hurry to come to a decision. But Lord Radclyffe— | with that same dictatorial obstincy with which he had priginally branded the claimant as an impostor and a dlackmailer—now clung to his reversed opinion. Con- vinced—beyond doubt, apparently—that Philip de Mount- ford was his brother Arthur's son, he insisted on acknowledging him openly as his heir, and on shower- - mg on him all those luxuries and privileges which Luke had enjoyed for so many years. Indignant and mentally sore, Jim and Edie protested with all the vivience of youth, violence which proved as useless as it was ill-considered. Luke said nothing, for he foresaw that the end was inevitable. He set about meking a home for his younger brothers and sister to be ready for them as soon as the cataclysm came, when Philip de Mountford, usurping every right, would turn his cousins out of the old home. Frank, absent at Santiago—a young attache out at his first post—had been told very little as_yet. Luke had tried to break the news to him in a guarded letter, which received but the following brief and optimistic answer: “Why, old man! what's the matter with you? worry- ing over such rubbish? Take m, aivice and go to Carls- bad. Your liver must be out of order.” But the catastrophe came, nevertheless; sooner even than was expected. Edie’s linguage grew very un- _ guarded in Philip's presence, ard Jim—‘“in the Blues’— did net watch over his own manners when the new cousin was in the house. One evening when Luke was absent—as was very often the case now—and the family gathering consisted of Lerd Radclyffe—sullen and morose; Philip, pleasantly condescending; and Jim and Edie, snubbed and wrathful, a difference in political opinion between the young peo- 2 set a spark to the smouldering ashes. sPhilip— still pleasantly condescending — did not say mutch that evening, though he had been called a cad and an upstart, and told to go back to his nigger rela- tions: but the next morning Jim and Edie received a curt admonition from Lord Radclyffe, during which they Were told that if such a disgraceful exhibition of im- "* pertinence occurred again, they would have to go and _ ¥ pitch their tent elsewhere. hte ae Fe I, 4 7. Prrse fin - "ake shrill voice called to them both by name. “Mr. de Montford, Miss Harris, the young people want to dance. You'll join in. won't you?” Already he was on his feet, every trace of emotion swept away from his face, together with every crease from his immaculate dress clothes, and every stray wis? of hair from his well-groomed head. Not a man, torr. with passion, fighting the battle of life against over- whelming odds, casting away from him the hand which he would have given his last drop of blood to possess— only the man of the world, smiling while his very soul was being wrung—only the puppet dancing to the con- ventional world’s tune. “Dancing?” he. said lightly: “Rather—Lady Ducies may I have this first waltz? No?—Oh! I say that’s too bad The first lancers then? Good! Lou, may I have this dance?” And the world went on just the same. CHAPTER XL SOCIAL DUTIES TO. PERFORM. HE first November fog. I The world had wagged on its matter-of-fvct way for more than six months now, since that day in April when Philip de Mountford—unier cover of lies told by Parker—had made his way into Lord Radclyffe’s presence; more than five months since the favored nephew had been so unceremoniously thrust out of his home. Spring had yielded to summer, summer given way to autumn, anl already winter was treading hard on autumn’s heels. The autumn session had filled London with noise and bustle, with political dinner parties and monster receptions, with new plays at all the best theaters, and volumes of ephemeral literature. And all that was—tonight—wrapped in a dense fog, the first of the season, quite a stranger, too, in London, for scientists had asserted positively that the era of the traditional “‘pea-souper’’ was over; the metropolis would know it no more. Col. Harris was in town with his sister, Lady Ryder, and Louisa, and swearing at London weather in true country fashion. He declared that fous paralyzed his intellect; that he became positively imbecile, not know- ing how to fight his way in the folds of such a black pall. Taxicab drivers he mistrusted; in fact, he had all an old sportsman’s hatred of mechanically propelled vehicles, whilst he flatly refused to bring valuable horses up to town, to catch their death of cold whilst waiting about in the fog. So Luke had promised to pilot the party as far as the Danish Legation, where they were to dine tonight. This was the only condition under which Col. Harris would consent to enter one of those confounded motors. Col. Harris had remained loyal to the core to Luke and to his fortunes. It is a way old sportsmen have, and he had never interfered by word or innuendo in Louisa’s actions with regard to her engagement. His daughter was old enough. he said, to know her own mind. She liked Luke; and it would be shabby to leave him in the lurch, now that the last of the society rats were scur- rying to leave thé sinking ship. They were doing it, too, in a mighty hurry. The invitations which the pen- niless younger son received toward the end of the Lon- don season were considerably fewer than those which were showered on him at its beginning before the world had realized that Philip de Mountford had come to stay, and would one day be Earl of Radclyffe with a rent roll of £80,000 a vear, and the sore need of a wife. It had ail begun with the bridge parties. Luke would no longer play, since he could no longer afford to lose a quarter’s income at one sitting. Uncle Rad used to shrug indifferent shoulders at such losses, and place’ blank checks at the dear boy's disposal. Imagine then how welcome Luke was at bridge parties, and how very un- desirable now. Then he could no longer make return for hospitable entertainments. He had no home to which to ask smart friends. Lord Radclyffe though a monster of ill-humor, gave splendid dinner parties at which Luke was quasi host. Now it was all give and no take; and the givers retired one by one, quite unregretted by Luke, who thus was spared the initiative of turning his back on his friends. They did the turning, quite politely but very effectually. Luke scarcely noticed how he was drop- ping out of his former circle. He was over-absorbed and really did not care. Moreover his dress clothes were getting shabby. Tonight at the Langham when he arrived at about 7 o’clock so as to havé-an-—undisturbed half hour with Lou, <ol. Harris greeted him with outstretched hand and a cwdial welcome. “Helle Luke, my boy! how goes it with you?’ Louisa said nothing, but her eyes welcomed him, and she drew him near ner, on tec the sofa in front of the fire, and a lowed her hand to rest in his, for she knew how he ived the touch of it. People were beginning to say tnat Louisa Harris was getting old: she never had been good-looking, poor thing, but always smart, very smart—now she was losing her smartness, and what remained? She nad come up to town this autumn in last autumn’'s frocks! and the twins were after all being chaperone by their aunt Would that absurd engagement never be broken off? Fancy Louisa Harris married to a poor man! Why, she did not Know how to do her hair. and dresses were still worn fastened at the back, and would te for years too come! Louisa Harris and no Frencn maid! Cheap corsets and cleaned gloves! It was une thinkable. “Hiow is Lord Radclyffe?’ asked Col. Harris. “Badly.”’ replied Luke. “I am afraid. He looks very feeble, and his asthma I Know must bother him. He was always worse in foggy weather.” “He ought to go to Algeciras. He alwayw sed to.” “T know,” assented Luke dejectedly. “Can't something be done? Surely, Luke, you haven't lost all your influence with him.” “Every bit, sir. Why, I hardly ever see him.” “Hardly ever see him?’ ejaculatéd Col. I am afraid that he swore. “IT haven’t been to Grosvenor Square for over six weeks. I am only allowed to see him when Philip is out, or by special permission from Philip, I won't go under such conditions.” “How that house must have altered!” “You wouldn't know it, sir. All the old servants have gone, one after the other; they had rows with Philip and left at a month’s notice. I suppose he hag no idea how to set about getting new ones—I know I shouldn't! There's only a man and his wife, a sort of charwoman who cleans and cooks, and the man is supposed to look after Uncle Rad; but he doesn't do it, for he is half seas over most of the time.” “Good God!” murmured Col. Harris. “They have shut up all the rooms, except the library where Uncle Rad and Bhilip have their meals when they are at home. But t&cy lunch and dine at their club mostly.” TO BE CONTINUED NEXT SUNDAY, Harris, and

A COMMONPLACE INCIDENT. though there was nething in the room at this moment to stand up afterward before her as dumb witness to a moment’s possible weakness. Less than nothing in fact: these dumb, impassive ob- jects! ihe fountain pen between her fingers! The dull, uninteresting hotel furniture covered in red velvet —-an uninviting red that repelled dreaminess and peaec! But a wood fire crackled on the small hearth and . . . and those citron-colored carnations were favorite flowers of his and his picture did stand on the top of that ugly little. Louis Philippe bureau No! No! it would ' never do to gush, for these things would see and, though they might not re- member, they would remind. And Louisa counted herself one of the strong ones of this earth. Just think of her name, Have you ever known a Louisa who gushed? who called herself the happiest woman on earth? who thought of a man—just an ordinary man, mind you—as the best, the hand- the truest, the most perfect hero of romance that ever threw a radiance over the enu“® prosy world of the twentieth century? Louisas believe me, do no: such things. The Mays and the Fioras, the Lady Barbaras and Lady Edithas, look beatific and charming when,’ clasping their lily-white hands porereseg and raising ,violet eyes to the patterned ceiling pa *wr above them, they exclaim: “Oh, my hero and my king!” But Louisas would only look ridtculous if they be- haved like that Louisa Harris, too! Lcuisa, the eldest of three sisters, the daughter of a wealthy English gentleman with a fine estate in Kent, an assured position, no troubles, no “ares, nothing in her life to make it sad, or sordid or interesting. Louisa Harris and romance! . .'!. Why, she was not even pretty. She had neither violet eyes nor hair of ruddy gold. The latter was brown and the former were gray. . How could romance come in the way of gray eyes, N O! NO! she was not going to gush!—Not even ‘and of a girl named Louisa? Can you conceive, for instance, one of those adorable detrimentals of low degree, and empty pocket who have a way of arousing love in the hearts of the beautiful datghters of irascible millionaires, can you conceive such an interesting personage, I say, falling in love with Louisa Harris? I confess that 1 cannot. To begin with, dear, kind Squire Harris was not altcsether a millionaire, and not at all irascible, and penni ts owners of romantic per- sonalities were not on his visiting list. Therefore Louisa, living a prosy life of luxury, got up every morning, ate a copious breakfast, walked out with the dogs, hunted in the autumn, skated in the winter, did the London season, and played tennis in the summer, sust as hundreds and hundreds of other well-born, well- bred English girls of average means, average positions, average education, hunt, dance and play tennis through- out the length and breadth of this country. There was no room for romance in such a life, no time for it The life itself was so full already—so full of the humdrum of daily rounds, of common tasks, that the heart which beat with such ordinary regularity in the seemingly ordinary breast of a very ordinary girl did so all unconscious of the intense pathos which un- derlay this very ordinary existence. Vaguely Louisa knew that somewhere, beyond even the land of dreams, there lay, all unknown, all mysterious, a glorious world of romance; a universe peopled by girlish imaginings, and the sensitive, creating thoughts of poets, by the galloping phantasies of super-excited brains, and the vague longings of ambitious souls; a universe wherein dwelt alike the memories of those who have loved and the hopes of those who suffer. But when she thought of it all, she did so as One who from the arid plain gazes on the cool streams and golden minarets which the fairy Fata Morgana conjures on the horizon far away. She looked on it as all unreal and altogether beyond her ken. She shut her eyes to the beautiful mirage, her heart against its childish yearn- ings. . Such things did not exist. They were not for her— Louisa Harris. The little kitchenmaid at the court wh»), on Sunday evenings, went off giggling, her chubby face glowing with pride and the result of recent ablutions, on the arm of Jim the third gardener, knew more about that world of romance than well-bred, well-born young ladies ever dreamed of in their commonplace philosophy, Therefore now, with LukKe’s letter in-her hand, in which he tells her in a very few words that he loves her be- yond anything on earth, and that he only waits the day when he can call her his own, his very own dearly loved wife, why should Louisa—suddenly imagine that the whole world is transfigured?—that the hotel room is a kind of ante-chamber to heaven?—that the red velvet, uncompromising chairs are clouds of a roseate hue and that the bronze Psyche with the broken thigh is the elusive fairy who, with Morgana-like wand, hath con- jured up this mirage of glorious visions which mayhap would vanish again before long? She went up to the window and rested her forehea against the cool pane. She might be ever. so strong, she could not help her forehead feeling hot and her eyes being full of tears—tears that did not hurt as they fell, Outside the weather was indeed prosy and common- place. Rain was coming down in torrents and beating against the newspaper kiosk over the way, on the roofs cf tramways and taxi-autos, making the electric lignt peep dimly tnrough the veil of wet, drowning, by its in- cessant patter, to which the gusts of a November gale made fitful if loud accompaniment, the shouts of the cochers on their boxes, the rattle of wheels on the stone. pavement. even at times the shrill whistle for cabs emanating from the porch of the brilliantly Nghted

of porters and of piles of luggage, jabbering, shout- ing and fussing like an army of irresponsible pig- mies; men in blouses and men in immaculate bowler hats, women wrapped in furs, clinging to gigantic heai- gear that threatened to leave the safe refuge of an elab- orate coiffure or of well fixed gargantuan hat pins, mid- inettes in fashionable skirts and high-heeled shoes, country women in wool shawls that flapped round their bulky forms like the wings of an overfed bat, all hurry- ing and jostling one another in a mad endeacor to avoid the onrush of the innumerable taxi-autos which in un- countable numbers wound in and out of the slower moving traffic like the erratic thread of some living, tangled skein. e Just the everyday prosy life of a small but aun- bitious capital struggling in the midst of an almost everpowering sense of responsibility toward the whole of Europe in view of its recent great Colonial ex- pansion Louisa gave an impatient sigh, Even the strong ones of the earth get wearied of the daily round, the common task at times. She and aunt were due to dine at the British Embassy at 8 o'clock; it was only 6:30 now and obviously impossible to sit an- other two hours in this unresponsive hotel room in the company of red velvet chairs and the bronze Psyche, Aunt, in conjunction with her maid Annette, was busy laying the foundations of an elaborate toilette. Louisa got a serviceable ulster and a diminutive hat and sallied forth into the streets. All she wanted was be alone, and to come out of herself for awhile. There is a kind of sociability in any room, be it ever so uncompromising in the matter of discomfort, but a crowded street can be unutterably lonely, either cruelly so or kindly as the case may be. She turned back toward the Boulevard, meaning to take a brisk walk all along the avenue of trees which makes a circuit round the inner part of the town and which ultimately would lead her back to the Gare dun Nord and the Palace Hotel How the time sped! It seemed as if she had only just left the hotel, and already surely not a quarter of a mile away she could see glimmering the lights of the Place Namur, the half-way point of her walk. She was in the Boulevard Waterloo where private houses with closed porte-cocheres add nothing to the municipal lighting of the thoroughfare. Trams had been rushing past her in endless succession; but now there was a lull. Close by her a taxi-auto whiz- zed quickly past and came to a standstill some hundred yards away, near the pavement,and not far from an electric light standard. Louisa, with vacant eyes attached on that cab, but with hér mind fixed on a particular room in a particular house in Grosvenor Square where lived a man of the name of Luke de Mountford, continued her walk. Those same vacant eyes of hers presently saw the chauffeur of the taxi-auto get down from his box and open the _ of the cab, and then her absent mind was sud- enly brought back from Grosvenor Square, London, to the Boulevard Waterloo in Brussels, by a terrible cry of horror which had broken from that same chauf- feur’s lips. Shrill calls brought a couple of gardiens to the spot. In a moment Louisa found herself. a unit in an eager, anxious crowd, asking questions, conjecturing, wonder- ing, horror-struck as s9°0n-as a plausible and graphic explanation came from those who were in the’ fore-front and were privileged to see. “A man—murdered” “But how?’ “The chaeuffeur got down from his box . . and looked in .. . ah, mon Dieu!’ “What did you see?’ “eee. a he is quite young . 20 years of:age.” only about

Palace Hotel. It was close on 6:50 by the clock of the Gare du Nord opposite. The express from Ostend had just come in-~ very late of course. owing to the gale which had de- layed the mail boat. Louisa, straining her eyes, watched the excited crowd pouring out of the station in the wake “Stabbed ?—Bah?" “Right through the neck I tell you... just below the ear. I can see the wound, quite small as if done with a skewer.” “Allons' Voyons! Voyons!”" cried the two gardiens, The Taxi Came to a Standstill Some Hundred Yards Away. “But to think that I drove that rascally murderer in my cab, and put him down safe and sound not 10 minutes ago!” came with the adjunct of a loud oath from the irate chauffeur. “Voila! Outside the Pare near the theater two bour- geois hailed me, and one of them told me to draw up at the top of the Galerie St. Hubert, which I did. The Same one—the one who had told where to go—gat out, clapped the door to and spoke a few words to his friend who had remained inside. After that he told me to drive on to Boulevard Waterloo No. 34 and here T am.” “What was the other man like? to you?" “Ma foi! I don’t know. . . . It was raining so fast and pitch dark just outside the Parc lights—and he did seem to Keep in the shadow—now I come to think of it —and his cap—he wore a cap—was plied well over his face—and the collar of his coat was up to his nose. It was raining so, I didn’t really see him properly. I saw the other one better—-the one who has been murdered,” The one who spoke CHAPTER It, ONCE MORE THE OBVIOUS. DAY or two later, Louisa Harris and her aunt, Lady Ryder, crossed over to England. Louisa amused herself by scanning a number of English papers in order to find out what was said in London about that strange crime, which she had al- most witnessed—the man stabbed through the neck, from ear to ear, and the wound so small it might have been done with a skewer. But, with characteristic in- difference, London paid but little heed to the mysterious dramas of a sister city. A brief account of the grue- some discovery—a figurative shrug of the shoulders as to the incompetence of the Belgian police, who held neither a clew to the perpetrator of the crime nor to the identity of the victim. Just a stranger—an idler. Brussels was full of strangers just now. His national- itv? who knows? His individuality? there seemed no one to care The police were active no doubt, but so far they had discovered nothing, Two men, the murderer and the murdered, engulfed in that great whirlpool known as humanity, small units of no importance, since no one seemed to care. CHAPTER Iii, AND NOW ALMOST LIKE A DREAM. VERYTHING went on just as convention—whose mouth-piece for the moment happened to be Lady Ryder—-desired; just as Louisa surmised that everything would; the letters of congratulations; the stately visits from and to Lord Radclyffe, Luke's uncle; the magnificent diamond tiara from the latter; the rope of pearls from Luke; the silver salvers and inkstands and enamel parasol handles from everybody who was anybody in London society. Louis’a portrait and that of Luke hastily and cheaply reproduced in the halfpenny dailies. so that she looked like a white negress with a cast in her eye, ard he like the mutilated hero of L'Homme Qui Rit: ‘the more elegant half-tone blacks in the sixpenny weekles under the popular if somewhat hackneyed heading of “The Earl of Radclyffe’s heir and his future bride, Mias Louisa Harris’; it was all there, just as it had been for hundreds of other girls and hundreds of other young men before Lovisa had discovered that there was enly one man in the whole wide world, and that, beyond the land of diamond tiaras and of society weddings, there was a fairy universe, immense and illimitable, wherecn the sun of happiness never set and whither no one dared venture alone, only hand im hand with that other being. the future mate, the pupll and teacher of love, the only ore that mattered. And the wedding was to be in four weeks from this 3 day. This morning, however, convention—stili yolced by FICTION SECTION- -ST.
