DEFENDANT LATE!: WOULD NOT EXPLAIN — Had a . Deal on With Eastern Publishers to Raise Money When Investigation Was Being Made by the Depart- yment of Justice. The Government gained a point in the trial of Edward G. Lewis on a charge of using’ mails to defraud when Judge Amidon, in chambers, Friday, ruled that the report of A. D. Radert, expeit accountant for the Department of Justice, was admissible as evidence and that ali of the books and papers of the Lewis enterprises, including those of the E. G.. Lewis estate were also admissible. The Judge held that all of the books and papers were in court for the use of attorneys on both sides. In support of his objection to Ra- dert’s testimony, Shepard Barclay, chief counsel for Lewis, argued that the ex- amination of the books and papers and their use by the District Attorney was in. violation of the Fourth Amendment ..of the.Constitution, which guarantees immunity from unreasonable search and seizure. Wanted Report Disregarded. the He also argued that the expert ac-| countant’s report was based on the “books and papers and that those books and papers would be the best evidence . ' as to whether or not the law had been Jn the sale of securities of the: ~ Lewis enterprises. Attorney Barclay argued that using the books of the Lewis corporations amounted virtually to compelling Lewis to testify against himself. Houts in re- ‘ply cited a decision of the United States Supreme Court that the books of a worporation might ‘be used against any of its officers. Houts was asked by the Court if his interview, given Thursday evening to newspaper men, was correct in sub- stance. He answered that it was and i, was then made a part of the record, Houts in this ,interview told «that Lewis sought an interview with him in January, 1911. He said that he in- formed Lewis that he wanted to inves- tigate the books of the Lewis enter- prises, and that if Lewis would not consent the inquiry would be made by @ frand jury. Lewis, he said, agreed on condition that Radert go into the Lewis office ostensibly as -an employe of Price, Waterhouse & Co., accountants then go- ing over the Lewis books. Lewis’ rea- son Was that he did not want it known the vernment again was investigat- Ing hie affairs, Houts said, and the re- quest therefore “Branted. “i Defendant } Deal On.

Mrs. Eliza Lemon, manager of the Perry Gunn boarding house in Alton, revenged herself‘upon a tramp who had robbed her Thursday by taking away his loot and then giving him a sound thrashing. She had permitted the man to carry in some coal to earn his dinner, and when he was going through the dining room he picked up her purse, contain- ing $26. .When'he had finished his task She spread a big meal before him and told him to énjoy himself. Then she missed the puree. The tramp denied he had taken it. Seizing hini around the neck, Mrs. Lem- on searched his pockets until she found it. She tossed it to one side and then swung. her right fist around. and hit him in the-eye ‘She repeated with her left ‘and, after i couple more. blows, the man started to run. Mrs. Lemon, who is nearly 6 feet tall, ana weighs about 165 pounds, caught up a club and belabored him.as he ran until she got tired of pursuing him. WADE IN EVENING DRESS Rich Men and Women Splash in Ocean at Midnight. LOS ANGELES, Cal., March 8.—A mid- night “‘wading party,” in which bers of millionaire families paraded the sand in bare feet, caused Long Beach to gasp today when the details became known. Among the party were Mrs. Walter J; Hill, daughter-in-law of the Northern Pacific Ratiroad\ head:: the Misses Walt, daughters of Col. EK. A. Walt of Salt Lake, and Mrs. H. C. Sprague. The unusual “splash” was participated in by both men and women in evening dress following a candy pull- at the Virginia Hotel and a box party later at one of the Long Beach theaters. PRICE OF SHROUD CUT Judge Says $10 “Isa Fair Fig- ure. Mrs. Anna Whyte's claim of $20 against the estate of Mrs. Mary McGrath for making a shroud was cut to $10 by Pro- bate Judge Holteamp Friday. The Judge said the evidence showed fhat $10 was a fair price for making an ordi- nary dress and that so much care need not be taken with a shroud in regard to durability. Mrs. McGrath lived at 86386 West Pine boulevard. The $20 claim sm resisted by the executor of her es- ate.

NO ARREST TO BE MADE 400 More Than Year Ago in In- stitution Where Tragedy Oc- curred; Same Attendants. Friday found that Joseph Schmerber, 42 years old, a pa- tient in this City Insane Asylum, came through dilatation of the from a. beating by patient, last Wednesday night. The jury’s verdict was homicide, but as Bagley is insane and in confinement, he will not be ar- rested. Schmerber and Bagley, 45 years old, a paranoiac; slept together in a ward oc- cupied by 100 patients. There wag but one guard, Ralph Rogers, on duty in the ward at 2 a. m. Wednesday when Bagley attacked Schmerber, according to evidence at the inquest. Rogers called W. R. Elmore, a guard » the floor below, and they found ‘chmerber semi-conscious on his bed. They called Dr. Carl Wachemfeld. Bagley Had Delusions. Wachemfeld testified that he found hlood on Sehmerber from bruises on his nead and face and found no wounds that could have come from any weapon. He said that Bagley frequently had delu- sions that men were attacking him, and at such times attacked everybody in sieht. He gave it as his opinion that Bagley was awakened from sleep by one if* those delusions and at_once struck Schmerber, the only man within reach. Dr. George Johns, superintendent of the asylum, told Deputy Coroner Fath that Schmerber and Bagley were alone in a room that Was a part of a ward where 100 pdtients slept. Pr. Johns told a Post-Dispatch re- porter, after the inquest, that there are four guards in that ward in the daytime, but only One at night. He admitted that guard for 100 insane patients is not enough, but said that more guards probably could not have prevented the killing of Schmerber, as the attack lasted only a moment and was all over when the guard and the physician got there. Dr. Johns said that he Held no- body responsible’for the killing. 400 More Patients. Dr. Cc. H. Shutt, Hospital Commis- sioner, told a Post-Dispatch reporter that he knew there were too few guards at the City Insane Asylum. There are now 400 more patients there, Dr. Shutt said, than there were a year ago, but the vumber of attendants has not been increased. Dr. Shutt said that he had recommended the employment.of more attendants there several times, but that his requests have been ignored. The police have been unable to. find the wife of Schmerber. He was placed in the institution last June by Mrs. Schmerber, who then gave her address as 3626 Indiana avenue. She is not there now. FLYING ACROSS CHANNEL A Coroner’s jury to his death heart, resulting George Bagley, a fellow he thought one Man Who Went From London to Paris Starts Back. BERCK PLAGE, France, March 8.— Henri Salvey today started again to cross the channel to Eneland. Salvey, who yesterday traveled in his monoplane from London to Paris, 222 miles, in two hours and fifty-seven min- utes, and then started on the return journey from Paris to London, was com- pelled to land here last night, owing to the violence of the wind.

IS EGOTISTICAL, SMILING He Comes Home When Girl lg- nores Letters, and, Caught in His Room, Confesses. Samuel Arnell Cheatham, 22 years old, former sailor and baseball player, who has signed a confession that he mur- dered George ‘Wurzburger in a pawn- shop, Jan. 31, and who, the police ‘are convinced, was lured back to St. Louis by his love for a girl, discussed the crime with an air of nonchalant ‘bravado Friday. Although he said Thursday evening, when he was arrested as he stepped into the room he had been occupying before his flight, at 5137A Delmar beule- vard, that he had come back to sur- render to the authorities, the detectives believe he returned to St. Louis to find. out why his sweetheart, Miss Leila Mayham, 4210 Washington boulevard, had not answered his many letters. He had written to her from every stopping place on his flight through many states, but had received no word of reply. Ready for His Punishment. After Chief Allender had _ finished questioning Cheatham, the prisoner said he wanted to see the newspaper men. To the reporters he said the state- ments in his written confession to the police were correct and that he would plead guilty when arraigned in court. “I'll throw. myself on the mercy of the Judge and take the consequences, even if it- is the death penalty,” he| > said. — Cheatham complained that his confi- Gence had been. betrayed in making public Miss Mayham’s name. He said that she or no one else knew anything about the murder. ‘That was an after- thought,” he said. “I didn’t go there to rob or kill anybody.” He insisted that he came back to St. Louis intending to give himself up. He was in Jacksonville, Fla., when he learned from the newspapers that the detectives were on his trail, he. said. He frequently showed his high temper and once he asked that he.be left alone for 10. minutes with the reporter who made public Miss Mayham’s name. Made Hig Will Jan. 22. While Cheatham was talking to re- porters a detective brought in a will which he made Jan, 22 last, nine days before the murder. The will is signed by Samuel Arnell Cheatham. The witnesses were W. A. Fortner, Frisco Building, and 8S. I. Rooks, 5220 Garfield avenue, William fiercules Richardson is named as exec- utor. After directing that his body be cremated and his debts paid, Cheatham Qames his bequests. To Miss Mayham he leaves $500 and to Mrs. Emma Obermoeller, an aunt, the same amount. The remainder of his real estate, personal property, money, claims, stocks, bonds and interests are left to his brother, Paul Hugh Cheat- ham, and his sister, Teresa Winifred Cheatham, in equal shares. Cheatham told the detectives about the will Thursday night and asked them to get.it from’ Rooks so he could make changes in It. While Cheatham, in.his will, mentions stocks, bonds, real estate and personal property, it became known with his ar- rest that a short time before the killing he borrowed $15 from Miss Mayham and also borrowed money from Charles Obermoeller, husband of his aunt. He complained to friends he was “broke” and :talked of wanting to raise money to go to Florida. Detectives learned Friday that two weeks before the murder Cheatham took out a $5000 life insurance policy| payable to a sister, Theresa, a pupil in the Ursuline Convent at Arcadia, Mo; the man was fond of this sister and helped to support her out of his meager income. Chief of Detectives Allender said he believed that Cheatham was planning the murder at that time and wished to provide for her future in case anything should happen to him. His Ego Astonishes Chief. After the interview with the man in the morning, Chief Allender declared Cheatham presented the most remark- able case of exaggerated ego the vet- eran officer ever has encountered. If was this vanity, Allender says, that made it impossible for the man to tom- prehend that his sweetheart had re- jected him absolutely.

An agreement on this point was almost reached at a conference Thursday after- noon at the city hall between members of the Board of Public Improvements, Receivers Bixby, Pryor and Delano of the Wabash and engineers of the’ city and of the’ railroad. This was the’ first frade crossing conference here that has been attended by Delano, who lives in New York. |The railroad engineers declared at the ¢onference that an elevation of five feet: in the streets at the crossing points will be necessary to insure the proper dtain- age of the: track ‘depresston. The ‘city engineers asserted: that an elevation of tfour feet will give the necessary. height above the sewers to supply proper drain- age of the depression. The members of the-Beard of Public Improvements agrééd with-the railroad officials that a slight elevation of the streets. wil] be necessary to keep the tracks above the sewers and provide the hecessary depth below the. street level for the passage of trains. The elevation also is required to prevent the sewers backing up and flooding the depressed tracks during periods of high water, ac-} cording to members of the board. After the conference the city and raii- road engineers agreed to continue their daily joint meetings in-an effort to ad- just the difference of one foot. As soon as this plan is completed, which will be in- a few days in the opinion of the board, a complete agreement will be reached between the city and the rafl- road officials as to the engineering prob- lems, members of the board told a.

The message read: “Pole reached 14th-17th December.” This probably means that he mained three. days in the. vicinity of the pole, probably for the purpose of aking accurate observations as to his position.

He said that on Jan. 23, 1908, the date of the first entry in the , It appeared that although the mortgage on the Woman’s National Daily building was only $150,000 and notes to only that amount were to be issued, a balance of $162,939.80 was to be issued. The next day the balance was reduced to $153,589.80. Up to April 8, 1908, the witness said, the balance had not got under the authorized issue of $150,000. On that date the balance was $149, 726.63. District Attorney Houts read to the jury an advertisement in the Woman's National Daily of April 11, 1908, which stated that the entire issue of $600,000 on the Woman’s Magazine and National Daily buildings had been almost sub- scribed. The witness testified from his record that the fact was that on Sept. 29 of that year there were still notes aggregating $149,576.63 to be sold. The total issue of $600,000 of secured notes, the witness said, was exceeded July 8, 1908.. It was again exceeded July 28, 1908, the issue at that time being $609,576.66. On Aug. 10 the issue was $610,518.32. From July 81 to Aug. 13 the witness said the issue was constantly in excess of that which was authorized. An advertisement from the Woman's Daily of Sept. 26, 1908, was read, which stated that there was $18,000 of secured notes left at the time. The “Witness, testifying from the record of his exami-

business of the company was made, and compared these published statements with the report made by Radert, the expert accountant, whose investigation showed that the condition of the busi- ness grew steadily worse during this period and that on the second date the notes were $313,635 in excess of the au- thorized $600,000. In the advertisement of Nov. 24, it was stated that in order to have enough of these notes t@ supply the demand from small investors ‘‘tens of thousands of offers from large investors had been refused.’’ Houts read an advertisement which appeared in the Woman’s National Daily Dec. 3, 1908, under the caption: ‘Less Than $18,000.”’ Notes Outstanding. The advertisement offered approxi- mately $18,000 worth of the 7-per-cent notes, which it said had been twice over- subscribed and that the company had for sale only such of the notes as it had obtained by repurchase, investment or exchange. Radert testified that on the date of the advertisement there were oustand- ing of the $150,000 series $112,209.01 of the notes and of the $450,000 series, $449,227.50. Of the series A unseéured notes there were outstanding $369,097.14. The total outstanding was $930,536.55 or $330,536.55 Over the $600,000 limit of se- cured ndtes. i An advertisement dated a week later and headed: ‘‘Less than $9000" was also read. Radert said that at that time $422,210.14 of the series A unsecured notes was out- standing. Of all issues there was outstanding $979,945.70, or $379,945.70 in excess of the $600,000 secured limit. In reference to an advertisement of Jan. 14, 1909, which said $21,000 of the notes was outstanding, Radert testified that the total issue of secured and un- secured notes on that date was $1,076,- 057.53, instead of the authorized $600,- 000 of secured notes. Houts read an advertisement in the Woman's National Daily for March 2, 1908, in which it was stated that the bond issue would cover all the indebted- ness of the company: The same statement appeared in an article dated March 27, 1908. Radert produced his trial balances of the company’s books to show that on

March 1, 1908, the indebtedness of the company was $422,651.25 and that on Dec. 31, 1908, the indebtedness was $1,- 231,196.46, which was $631,198.46 in excess of the $600,000 bond issue.

SANSONE SMILES AS He TELLS OF KILLING CAMARATA Youth on Trial Declares He Stabbed His Rival in Business in Self-Defense.

Antonio Sansone, on trial before Judge Rassieur for kiling Joseph Camarata, Sept. 9, 1910, took the stand in his own defense at noon Friday. Sansone, who is but 19 years old, calmly told the jury how he stabbed Camarata in self-defense and of the events that led up -to their fata] quarrel. He smiled almost con- tinually while being cross-examined. Sansone is a fruit dealer employed by his father, Michael Sansone. Camarata, whom he killed, also was a fruit dealer. “TI had gotten en order from Aufricht, the grocer, at Fifteenth street and Washington avenue, for two bunches of bananas,” he testified. “I had sold ok en with sleeves, at ° A table full 2 Gaccechiaane Jabotse made of fine mull in dou- ble and single effects and trim- real Crochet Price 50c

It was desired to ascertain the disposition of the Federals rather than to bring on a’fight. Orozco believes that Villa will not oppose him when he takes his army out of Chihuahua for the advance south, preparations for which are being made. He thinks Vita will form a junction with other Federal troops near Torreon and that they may give battle there. There was an unimportant skirmish near Jiminez yesterday.

Charles W. Prince, a negro, of 1323 Morgan street, who says he is a pro- fessional ‘‘hoodoo man,” was fined $100 Friday in the Dayton Street Police Court for disturbing the peace of Mrs. Lillie Lewis, a negress, of 2710 Morgan street. She testified he offered to run her husband into the river by touching him with a drop of a liquid he called “death oil.”’ Prince testified the supposed ‘‘death oil’ was merely a corn cure. The bottle of oil, two ‘hoodoo bags,” a rabbit's foot and two pieces of coal, from which fire was supposed to issue at the ‘“‘hoo- doo .man’s’’ request, were found in Prince’s pockets when he was arrested.

There is no resentment, however, of- ficials here having recognized that the British Government did its best both to secure a good treaty and its indorsement by the United States Senate. The evening newspapers expressed no surprise at the action of the United States Senate. The Pall Mall Gazette says that such treaties are only possible be- tween nations which are never likely to fight and there “is no need to sign and seal a declaration of love and affection for one’s brother.” The Japanese must be laughing in their Sleeves, says the Gazette, at seeing taht “the little piece of sugar, by I} which the renewal of the alliance with Great Britain was secured, has melted away.” The Westminster Gazette attrib- utes the action of the Senate to po- litical exigencies. 2.90, 3.80 AND 4.65 FOR Schloss Bros. & Hackart $20 New Spring Clothes.

M., @S Well as I can remember— at any rate it was after dark—I en- tered the Cowperthwait Loan Co. on Pine street for the purpose of pawn- ing a pair of cuff links. When I entered the place I had a 22-caliber revolver in my right-hand hip pocket. Just as soon as I entered I saw Mr. George Wurzburger on the left hand side as you go in. He was behind the show case. I handed him the cuff links and said: “I want to pawn these.” He did not want to take them on ac- count of an argument we had had a few days before. I wanted $4 on the buttons, and he wanted to give me but $2 for them. We finally agreed on the price, and he took them and went around to his desk to make out the ticket. He took the book and started to enter them up, talking all the time. He kept fussing after he took them from me. I don’t recall right now all that he did say, but the argument was that I wanted $4 and he only wanted to give me 2, and he kept on talking all the time he was writing the ticket. E said: “I shouldn’t take them H at all. I answered him very heated. He would write a word and then look up and talk to me. While he was arguing I took the gun from my pocket, took aim and shot him through the brain. I started to turn around to go out. I got to the door, and then it struck me that I might as well go ahead and ransack the place while I had the opportunity. I leaped over the showcase on the left-hand side as you come in the pawnshop and took a coat that was hanging on the wall and put it over his face. Immediately after I jumped over the showcase someone opened the door of the pawnshop, entered the place and asked: “Is Mr. Wurzbur- f fl" name ig Samuel A. Cheat-

Cheatham’s Confession of the Wurzburger Killing ger in?’ “No,” I answered. I then added: “‘He will be in after a while.” He turned around and walked out. I took an alligator grip off a shelf or case. The safe was open and I pulled out three or four drawers and dumped the watches into the grip. When I started to fill the grip Mr. Wurzburger started to crawl toward the trap door. It was open and I threw him down and closed it. The trap door leads to the celiar and that is where I pushed him. Then I closed the bag. The money drawer was open and I next went to it. I took all the money that was in the draw- er—amounting to either $8 or $96. There was about $30 or $32 in silver and the remainder in bills. The bills were in a little square in the drawer in the same place where the silver was kept. Wurzburger had not paid me for the links before I shot him, I took no more watches after throwing him into the cellar. There was some rope lying on the floor, and I started to tie up the bag. Then, thinking that people might notice it too close- ly, I concluded not to go out with the bag tied, and broke the rope with my fingers. TUOK an Olive car and went | home to 5137 Delmar boulevard, where I had been rooming for three weeks. As soon as I got home I counted the money and went out and paid Mr. Etheridge for my raom from Feb. 15 to Feb. 29, and also paid him in advance to April 1, 1912. I gave him $37.50. I went to my room and tried to go to sleep. I got up next morning and went up to a doc- tor in the Delmar Building. I don’t remember his name. I then came downtown and went out on the Eads Bridge and threw the gun I had used into the Mississippi River. I told Etheridge that I was going to Louis- ville, Tenn., and then home, and would be gone for possibly a month. I left St. Louis the evening after I shot Mr. Wurzburger and robbed his pawn shop.

Climate Failed— Medicine Cured It has been absolutely shown that rest. fresh air, and good food do help many persons suffering from Tuberculosis. But, to be really honest, it must be admitted that the disease is seldom more than “arrested.” Something more is needed. Eckman’s Alterative is a medicine made for the cure of Tuberculosis. It has cured this disease again and again. Often these cures have been effected where the surroundings were not ideal,

where no intelligent care was taken of] the patient. where money was scarce; good food and good cooking unusual— yet cures resulted, Now we argue and urge that Eckman’s Alterative should be used in every case of Tuberculosis, in addition to good, nourishing food and fresh air. which we all need, facts—the evidence of cures that been made—are interesting read- A remarkable cure follows.— , Weldon, Ill. “Gentlemen.—Through Eckman’s Al- terative I have been saved from @ pre- mature stave. and, feeling thet I might benefit suffering humanity, I take pleas- in writing you a briet hich you are at li re i 1904,

DEMOCRATS URGt JEFFERSON STATUE FUND BE DOUBLED Senators James O’Gorman and Thomas Smart Pay Tribute to Great Statesman. cS TENSFOLD”. ~~ “RAISE IT Massachusetts Congressman Would Add Public Contribu- tion to Pulitzer Gift. By Wire From the Washington Bu- reau of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, March 8.—Democratic statesmen are indorsing the project to double the Pulitzer foundation for the Jefferson memorial by popular subscrip- tion, and are urging every Democrat in the county to follow the example of Speaker Champ Clark, who was first to “chip in his mite’ to make the build- ing of this monument a national move- ment. New York’s Democratic representative in the: upper House, Senator James A. O’Gorman, today said to the Post-Dis- patch correspondent: “The plan conceived by the late Jo- seph Pulitzer for a memorial to Thomas Jefferson does honor to the memory of that distinguished journalist, who, in his own day, did so much to advance the political principles of the author of the charter of American liberty. Wishes Project Success, “Every crisis in human affairs has produced leaders whose names are writ largely in the hearts of a grateful pos- terity. Our revolutionary era was no exception to the rule. Washington, Jef- ferson, Franklin, Hamilton, John Ad- ams, Patrick Henry and John Hancock were the commanding figures in that heroic period. They struggled in a mighty cause and achieved American in- dependence, but to Jefferson more than to any one of his illustrious compatriots belongs the glory of devising and per- petuating a government based upon the immutable principles of human freedom and equality. “I wish the project every success, and believe the memorial will be a fitting tribute to one whose place in the history of the republic is second only to the immortal Washington.”’ Indebted to Jefferson. Senator Thomas Smart of Virginia said: “‘The plan of having a memorial in honor ot Thomas Jefferson under the provisions of the will of Joseph Pulitzer should interest the people in every sec- tion of the United States. ‘We are more indebted, in my opin- ion, to Thomas Jefferson than to all other Americans combined for the form of government. which the American people enjoy. He was a profound be- liever in the rights of the people and in their ability to govern themselves.’’ Representative James D. Post of Ohio said: “Every Democrat in the land who is able should contribute to the laud- able object expressed in the will of Mr. Pulitzer. Tnomas Jefferson was the one forefather who disseminated the seeds of democracy imbued with the spirit of personal liberty by deed and act, It is to be hoped that a liberal re- sponse will be made by the people to this project, to the end that a suitable memorial may be erected to the great- est of all American citizens.’’ Representative Cordell Hull of Ten- nessee, member of the Committee on Ways and Means, said: ‘I have the greatest reverence for the political principles of Thomas Jefferson. He was the greatest political philosopher and constructive statesman the world ever produced. I cannot recommend too strongly the movement inaugurated by Joseph Pulitzer fittingly to commemo- rate his life teachings and achieve- ments.’’ Nation Turns to Jefferson. Representative, | William Francis Mur- ray of Massachusetts said: ‘It is more than a century since Thomas Jefferson retired from the presidency of the erms, with full honors and the good

Take one to two teaspoonfuls of this mixture? after each meal and at bed time. Nearly all good drug- gists have these ingredients. Any- one can mix. One should be sure to get good pure gin, also the genuine Murax Compound, which comes only in a sealed wooden package, as any substitute will not give the desired results. Weak kidneys or bladder should be given attention as soon as any of the well-known symptoms are noticed. Neglect in the matter is dangerous, as the serious forms, Bright’s disease, chronic rheumatism or dread diabetes, may develop. These can be avoided if the above simple mixture is used be- fore complications set in.—ADV.

THE SENATE'S BLUNDER. No treaties are required to bring nations into an arbitration of questions which they are always mutually willing to arbitrate at the time of a dis- pute. What these treaties sought to do was to create an obligation to arbitrate a broad or jus- ticiable class of questions which they might not be willing to arbitrate in the heat.of controversy. So provision was made for joint high commissions class masseur, J JACK.—Department of | Washington, D, C., gen information in reg to you will write, | _

The Deadly Railroad Frog. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch, : Your editorial of Feb. 28, 1912, entitled “The Deadly Railroad Frog,” which referred to the death of John Kelly, by being trapped in a rail- road frog in the city of St. Louis, was read with interest by the writer. In this editorial you re- ferred to a law adopted in 1891, which has been repealed and a new section, 3163 R. 8S. 1909, is now the law on this subject. You end your edi- terial with the question, “Why is not the law en- fe rced?” My opinion is, that the circuit Judges for crim- inal causes, the grand juries and the prosecuting oficers are in a great way responsible for these accidents on account of neglecting their duties as set out in section 3163, R. 8., 1909, as follows: Section 3163, Safety Switch Appliance and Guard Rails to Be Maintained—Penalty: All companies or corporations, lessees or other persons owning or operating any railroad or part of railroad in this State, are hereby required, on or before the first day of September, 1907, to adopt, put in use

In regard to elevator safety, the operators in some buildings have the habit of opening the gate before the car comes to a stop or close the door after they start up or down. That is how Banker Howard met his death. If there was a law to equip all office buildings with an electric gate lock operated from car controller when gate is open or has no contact it cannot be run up or down Banker Howard would be alive today. There are times that a person forgets what floor he is at talking to someone in the car; you reach your. floor before you expect to and start to step out after car has started to run. If the gate was closed, you could not step out.

Daiitedky Pou! By MARJORIE R. JOHNSON.

P to about five years ago Paul Preston was a lucky man, having everything in life that he wanted to make him happy, and nothing to worry him, He was young and healthy, standing 5 feet 11 in _ his stockings, was not in love, and, best of all, he thought, had not a cent in the world and no head for business. . His ill-luck began when his great- uncle Morrison died and saddled the burden of hig millions upon him, He had not expected this, and fumed and fretted, vowing he would never bear it. He had just taken passage for Europe in the steerage of a cattle steamer sailing from Quebec, had had a hard time to raise the money for even that, and now, in the very height of his triumph at having ac- complished the acme of his ambition, down came that crushing inheritance, and life lost its roseate hue and be- came black. Reluctantly he gave up thoughts of the steerage, and secured a deck Cabin on the Kaiser Wilhelm der ' Grosse from New York, but all the Way over, while outwardly enjoying himself and making himself agree- able to the ladies, he was planning how to get rid of his monetary in- cubus. In Paris he gave everybody the slip and went straight to the Latin uarter. There he took an attic, fitted p with second-hand furniture, ) had a “mean pallet’ for a bed, a tumbledown easel, some scarecrow chairs and other shabby things, and then settled down to work with strong hope of some degree of hap- piness. One unlucky day his lawyer tracked him out, and secrecy wag no longer possible. His comrades of the Quarter distrusted him after that, and turned the cold shoulder, and there was nothing to do but quit Paris. In Munich, whither he went, he didn’t go it quite so strong, and he goon had the happiness of learning . that he was spoken of as a ne’er-do- weel who would never make his mark. What, then, was his dismay - on going into the Gallery to see his picture hung on the line, with an admiring crowd before it, and to re- ceive the next day an offer of 16,000 marks for it, He had to accept, of course, or be found out, but it con- vinced him that Munich was, for his purposes, worse than Paris. Next he tried St. Petersburg, think- ing that if there were such a thing ‘as getting into a scrape, Russia was the country for the purpose. Here he *daid all the reckless things he could think of. any one of which woul have resulted in the banishment t Siberia of an ordinarily lucky indi- vidual. He had heard and read of fortunes being lost in a single night, and tried the thing with a party of professional gamblers—swells, all of them—but professional gamblers all the same. Of course, he knew that he should win the first night or two—in storie: tyros always do—and he didn’t minc it for awhile: but when it kept on night after night for qa month, and he found that he had more than doubled the amounts he had at stake, he thought it was high time to throw up the -undertaking. Then he returned to New York and tried investments. Not a loss could he make. It seemed to him awful. Then he settled large sums on al! his relatives, and had serious thoughts of getting rid of the whole fortune in that way, when again his Nemesis, in the shape of his lawyer, came down on him, telling him that, by the terms of:old Morrison’s will, he wag prohibited from disposing of more than a certain proportion of his capital during his lifetime. About this time, his case looking really desperate, some malicious spirit suggested to him to marry a poor girl—one who had never ad two cents to her name, and who would have her head so turned when she learned of the wealth that was at her disposal, that she might be trust- ed to get rid of it in short order by the abnormal extravagance which she would naturally develop, Here was a promising scheme, and he wondered he had not thought of it before, Happening to mention to his old nurse his desire to marty a poor but pretty girl, she entered into the plan with much alacrity. At a summons from the old lady he called at her rooms, and there was a slim little thing with her, dressed in a shabby gown, who sat and knit away at a coarse stocking and never raised her eyes or said a word all the time he was there. He went away a delighted man for, in spite of an unusual re- finement of face and attitude, it was evident the girl had not a cent in the world but what she could earn by knitting. At the end of two or three months he was dead in love with the girl. It took nearly another month to persuade her to marry, but she finally consented. The wedding day arrived. A lovely vision appeared. He could hardly be- lieve his eves. Of all the costly look- ing brides he had ever seen, she was the costliest, and yet the plainst in her apparel. Was that magnificent, white-robed, queenly woman the lit- tle girl who had been wont to sit in her poor black frock, knitting indus- triously in Nurse’s little living-room? The next day, on the train, when he casually dropped a package of thou- sand-dollar notes into her lap, with the remark that it was pin money, and when it was spent she _ should have more, she remarked in_ the quietest little drawl imaginable: “Oh, Paul! I must tell you a little secret! When poor Aunt Matilda died in California a week ago she left me two millions!” Copyright. the Shortstory Pub. Co.

INTERVIEWS WITH CUPID Being in Love With Lov

Written for the Post-Dispatch BY BARBARA BLAIR. CHAPTER I. ELLO! May I come in?” rT § I dropped my book with a start. I had not heard any- _ @ne knock nor the sound of an opening door, yet there before me stood a small, strange figure, familiar enough on a calendar or a valentine, but Strange indeed in the flesh and blood. He stood in the lamplight, his Mmbs hathed in its rosy glow, his saucy head thrown back and, slung on his shoulder, his golden bow and arrows. He looked as if he had just stepped out of a Gib- ' pon or Harrison Fisher sketch. What a lot artists must know about him, to be sure, to partray him so well! “Cupid!” I gasped. “Glad to see me?’’ ‘And cocking his head on one: side he surveyed me with an impudent grin. I Resite*ed, "TJ get along comfortably without you.” “Perhaps. That is all anyone can do— WITHOUT me.” “I of course am glad to meet you,” I -dded more cordially, fearing I had offended him. apologetically. “I really have not much time for you now.” “That's all right. You see I have enlied upon an absolutely impersonal ‘matter, so far at least as you are con- cerned.” “OH!” IT said. “It is one thing to close the door politely Cupid’s face and another to be as politely told he had no Antention of opening it, so far as YOU are concerned.” “Sk have come to you for help.” “Cupid!” and I looked at him sternly. “Have you a love affair on?” “Not at all.

Are you jealous of it, you immortals, and do you touch our hearts only with the tips of your immortal wings?’ | He was silent. “You are not fair,” I crfed. ‘You only play with us of the world; your |golden love you keep for Olympian gods and us you cheat with a cheap imita- tion in some baser metal.”’ “You are wrong,” he said sadly. “Blame not Love when Passion dies or Tiluston fades. I, Love, may call, but some hearts are too little to inspire a great love and others too cold to feel its magic touch.” I looked at him without replying. There was something very sweet about I am so busy,” I added bis presence in the room; he threw a golden glamour over each gray, prosaic duty of the morrow; he stirred immortal! hopes, immortal ambitions: he made greatness seem possible and love su- preme. effort.

But the able and efficient Detective Aloysius Stallingbull, whose name is a terror to evildoers, was in the doorway of Mr. Smith's private office as they spoke. The “Terror to Evil Doers” was a big, stout man with a mottled face. Ina bright blue cravat gleamed a star sapphire entirely surrounded by 4dia- monds, and on several] fingers of both his large and pudgy hands gleamed flat, round rings set with diamonds of the largest size marketable. The great detective ran his hands into his trousers pocket and drew out a small pigskin case clasped with a gold buckle. He opened thig and dis- played a badge. “IT sent for you because I have re- ceived a Black Hand letter,” said old man Smith, in a quavering voice. And he brought out the copy of Letter XII, and the answer to the same that Sidney Slavinsky had culled from the “Business Forms” Gus’ copy of “The Com- plete Letter Writer.” “Inside job!” snarled the great de- tective out of the corner of his mouth. “You work here?" This last was addressed to Mr. Jarr. upon whom, with a suspicious squint in his fishy blue eyes the glance of the bloodhound of the law rested. ‘Mr. Jarr felt himself color guiltily

Naw! Youse use office stationery; ‘his is cheap paper bought ir any cigar and stationery store. It goes to show that the guy who wrote it was foxy. But we'll get him.

What would you say, uh?’ Mr. Jarr flushed again. He did know something about the letter. He had been present when it had been copied in jus’ and sent. But what had been a joke was now, in the hands of two dolts, his boss and the detective, a serious matter. —

| Hons ON iv SUH T0 OPEN ~ SEASON SUNDAY First Game of the Year for Wal- lace’s Men, Will Be Against Montgomery. TO TRAIN IN ALABAMA _ St. Louis Will ‘‘Never Again” Be Scene of Spring Baseball Workouts. By W. J. O’CONNOR. St. Louis affords the same facilities for spring baseball practice that Palm Beach does for ice hockey. Already the Browns have moved, lock, stock and barrel, to the sunny South, after a fu- tile endeavor to train here, while an- nouncement is made by Treasurer See- kamp that the Cardinals will be on their way to the land of cotton before vesper time, Sunday. “We sent the Browns South for one purpose,’ declared Owner Hedges, Fri- day, “‘and that was to put them in con- dition to beat the Cardinals in the spring series.’’ Whereupon Mr. Seekamp, speaking with authority, says: ‘“‘March 23, the date of the first game of the spring series, will not find the Cardinals out of condition. Bresnahan will have his team fit and to accomplish that end he intends not to gamble on the whims of the local weather man. He will leave for a Southern training camp just as soon as we can locate the most desirable spo ’*? Mr. Hedges was not long in finding a place to train, once he had reached an agreement with Manager Wallace that it would be best to send the team South. “whe long-distance telephone was used and communication was had with sev- erg} Southern cities. Montgomery finally was selected berause the ball park and hotel accommodations there appealed strongly to Manager Wallace. Through With St. Louis. The decision to send the team South also guarantees that no mistake will be made next season in selecting a training quarters. St. Louis has been erased from the list of eligible training camps and probably never again will the local clubs attempt to play baseball here before St. Patrick’s day. The Browns will play several exhibi- tion games in the South before they re- turn here, two weeks hence, for the blue ribbon bouts with the Cardinals. Wal- lace’s tribe will reach Montgomery to- night and will be out for practice Sat- “urday morning and afternoon. On Sun- day the Brownies will take on the Montgomery club for an exhibition game with the Southern Association club, Other games will be played dur- ing the stay in Montgomery, but as yet the full schedule is not completed. Five Left at Home. Manager Wallace’s party Thursday evening totaled 836. Mrs. Wallace and Mrs. George Stovall made the trip, while the following players. wére “‘checked in’’ at train time: Stovall, Allison, Baumgardner, C. R.

James Pepper Austin was not a mem- ber of the Brownlie band that hit the lone- some Sar for Montgomery Thursday Col. Hedges was asked why. Sf He spoke as follows: “I like Austin, ana think he’s a grand ballplayer. He dia well last year, but I have toted fair with Austin, fairer, in fact, than he has toted with ‘me.

Athletics and Giants to Play Spring Series?

Mack and McGraw Virtually Agreement for Practice Games. MARLIN, Tex.. March 8.—Managers Mc- Graw and Connie Mack have again taken up the question of playing a spring series in Texas, and if the plens as suggested by Mc- Graw go through, one game will be played in Dallas and one in San Antonio. The only thing in the way of the games at present is the question of what players. will be used. McGraw is of the opinion that a series be- tween the youngsters would be unsatisfac- tory to the public and that the games would not draw much of a crowd. Mack wanted to play the youngsters, but McGraw is willing to let both clubs use whatever _ they please. It is said that Connie Mack is willing to play if the games can be staged at San An- tonio. He does not want to go to Dallas. The rainy weather has cut heavily into the expenses of both the championship clubs, and that has revived the subject. If the Texas people can show the managers where they can get enough money out of the series to make it worth while, it is likely that the games will be played. It developed today that Otie Crandall is suffering from some severe bruises on his right leg just above the ankle and this is causing McGraw much worry. Though Otle kept his ailment secret for a long time, he received the injury just before the world’s series last fall and the wound has not en- tirely healed. A specialist has been engaged to get the officially rescuer of ball games in shape for his regular work. Infielder Gardelia, who has been laid up for a week with stomach trouble, said this morning that he would be able to begin work in the next day or two. He has never had a chance to show what he could do, as he has been ailing ever since his arrival. BOXING BRIEFS. Owen Moran, the clever English light- weight, will be seen ihn another bout at one of the New York clubs on next Tuesday night. He will have for an opponent Pal Moore, the Philadelphia boxer, who has fought Battling Nelson, Matty Baldwin, Fred- die Welsh and recently lost a” decision to Joe Mandot, the sensational fighter of the South, in a 10-round bout at the Orleans A. C. of New Orleans. Moran and Moore will come together in a 10-round bout at 1385 pounds. If Moran wins he will be pitted against Joe Mandot for 10. rounds.

Frankie Burns, the great little bantam- weight of Jersey City, has been signed up for two fights at New Orleans. On Monday even- ing, March 11, he will take on Jem Kendrick, the English bantam, for 10 rounds, at the Orleans A. C., at 117 pounds, weigh in at 6 p. m., while on Sunday, March 17, he will go against Sid Smith, the English flyweight champion, in a 20-round bout before the West Side A. C., at 116 pounds three hours before the fight. The New York club managers are still bid- ding for the proposed 10-round bout between Carl Morris and Al Palzer, the two big ‘‘white hopes.’’ Today the Madison A. C. of- fered the managers of the men a purse of $12,500, and a few hours later Charley Des- serick, manager of the National Sporting Club, went the Madison A. C. $500 better, of- fering $13,000 for the contest. TIPS AND CUES. Tonight’s Local Schedule. At the Grand—Schaat vs. Bauer, cushions. At Peterson’s—Kline vs. Thomas, balk line.

LAMBERT NEEDS UHILAGO VOTES IQ BEAT HOWARD Sweeney Must Split Chicago Del- egation to Elect Young Mil- lionaire President. a. CHICAGO, March 8.—‘“‘If we can split the Chicago delegation, we'll elect Wooster Lambert president of American Bowling Congress,’’ \declared Dennis J. Sweeney, boss of the St. Louis bowling world, who is here elec- tioneering for Lambert. Sweeney has worked hard for four days, sleeping not a wink in that time, and he believes he will be able to pull the strings that will send Lambert rocketing into the presi- dential chair this afternoon. The contest for the presidency surely is a warm one. The withdrawal of Bob Brown, the Louisville editor, who prob- ably will not attend the meeting because of illness, left the race to Lambert and Howard. Sweeney thought he would put over a 10-strike by having Brown, who’s popular with the pin-topplers, nominate Lambert. However, Brown had not ar- rived this morning and the chances are he will not come. awambert will be nominated from the floor and the St. Louis delegates say they will vote solidly for him. Cincin- nati has promised nine votes for Lam- bert, while Cleveland will contribute eight. Sweeney claims a few from Mil- waukee, but his trump card is his threat that he will swing not a few of the Chicago votes. If he can split the local delegation, Lambert surely will be elect- ed. Howard says he will get Chicago's every vote. Fur has been flying here for the past three days. Sweeney is in charge of the Lambert headquarters, where hospitalit: is being distributed in quarts, pints anc ponys. Lambert has not put in appear- ance yet, but Sweeney says he will be on the floor when the meeting convenes Sweeney has Lambert under cover.

TRENDALL HOPES T0 BE AT BEST AGAINST HAYES St. Louis Scrapper Believes He Has Tough Battle, Next Monday. -" Harry Trendall is working as he never toiled beforé to get-in shape for his match with Grover Hayes, which takes place Monday night at the Coliseum, under the auspices of the St. Louis mm %. 1 “T’ve seen this lad fight and if I whip him it means that I’m right in the championship class,”"” remarked Tren- dall, today. ‘“‘Hayes is the toughest of the outfit of lightweights now just outside of Wolgast’s division. I don’t except Joe Mandot, either. I think Hayes can beat Mandot, although he was’ given an unfair break by a New Orleans referee when they last met. ‘‘Hayes is one of these boys who is always coming, never stopping. It’s a continual effort to keep at his distance and then you can’t. He’s whipped some of the very best men in the game; and he beat the famous English boxér, Jim Driscoll, in the East. The man that can whip Hayes needn’t fear anybody. That’s what I think: of this Jad.’’ Fears a Setback. Trendall is nursing himself carefully, for fear of getting sick before the fight. Twice he has been cheated out of good bouts through eleventh-hour {fllness. Hayes had a hard time beating a fighter comparatively unknown around here, Frank Whitney. This was Tuesday night. But Whitney is one of the most dangerous men in the game, and another of the host of new- comers who will have to be watched. He is a terrific puncher and fights all the time. Eddie Howard, who is Adolph Eaton in real life, can tell you about him. Eaton met Whitney once and was knocked out in the ‘fth round. About the second round, when oth Eaton’s eyes were all but closed and he vas rocking like a ship in a storm, Whitney ‘emarked: ‘‘Come on, let’s quit, kid. You got enowgh.’’ ‘‘Let’s go,’’ said Eaton in reply. And he vent, three rounds later, by the dreamland ine. His face was as big as a pumpkin

STOVALL NOT SULKING. A N alleged want of harmony between Manager Wallace of the Browns and George Stovall, recently acquired from Cleveland, appears to be annoying sporting writers around the country. None of the key pushers has quite de- cided whether Stovall’s sulking or Wal- lace’s:fear of the ax is going to do most harm to the team. +. * - WALLACE IS PLEASED. Just to end the discussion and put 1atters straight, Stovall is not only NOT sulking over his exchange, but he is pleased, and will be a willing worker. Both his words and his demeanor bear out this. As for Wallace being fearful of Stovall’s annexing his job: It was Wallace who insisted that Hedges get the husky first baseman. In fact, Wal- lace is just about as much annoyed over the coming of Stovall as he would be if Comiskey insisted on giving him Ed Walsh. f + * * NO FLOWERS, PLEASE. IGHT now it appears that anybody could buy the. entire Columbian League for the amount John T. Powers paid out*in transportation. ‘Twas a valiant little flurry the Chicago pro- moter created, and perhaps it’s not all done yet; but from here, a&d without the aid of fleldyglagses, it appears that the next move of the ‘‘outlaws’’ will be the death: Kicky. _ ’ e: .9 i PRACTICE SEASON SHORT. F all goes well, and every day at Montgomery turns out balmy and sunshiny, the Browns will have just exactly 12: days of workouts ere they return for the spring series. The Cardi- nals will have even less, if they persist in remaining at West Baden, where win- ter still abides. And still, there are those who want to place a bet on the result of the first interleague game here. About April 1, perhaps, the clubs may have a pitcher or two far enongh advanced te work four good innings. The spring scries, as a baseball test. will this year mean nothing whatever. _

SELECTION IS DEFERRED Roger Doesn’t Know Where He’s -* Going, but He’ll Soon Be on . His Way. A Special Correspondent of the Post- Dispatch. WEST BADEN, Ind., March 8&—Cor- re- questing the presence of the Cardinals for their spring training work.is mak- bellhops and majl carriers humpbacked unloading it. Every village and hamlet with a board of trade has either wired or written Bresnahan asking for the honor of en- tertaining the ‘“‘Rajahs.’’ Bresnahan, however, will not decide the team’s des- tination until he hears from a few of the more favored locations. During their stay here, which will end Saturday noon, the Cardinals have drunk enough of the waters to drown every person in the squad. From last Friday to Saturday noon is eight days. As there are 27 members in the party and they average 40 glasses a day, this will bring the allotment for each day to 108 glasses; as each tum- bler holds a little more than half a pint, this will total 600 pints; this makes 75 gallons per day or 600 gallons in the eight days. Had the weather been propitious for outdoor work this water wagon stunt would likely have been doubled. Last season, when the sun shone like the good old summer time, Roger Bresna- han, the demon director of play, ap- proached the drinking emporium no less than 64 times. The skipper’s record has never been equaled and old residents salaam whenever they see the Duke. Cards Put Out Fire. Geveral of the Cardinals acted the hero during the afternoon and put out a fire which threatened the pool and billiard hall and bowling alley. While Mr. Keppeler, the rotund proprietor, sent for the fire depart- ‘ment, the same being a large-sized bucket of water, Hauser, Koney and Sallee, with the ala of some of the Pittsburg athletes, stamped it out. The smoldering remains were then easy prey for the said bucket of water. , ‘Roy Golden had Jinx on his heele when he met with @ mishap during the afternoon in the shape of a high-diving act. Roy was the suffering on account of being too con- sdientious.

In Practice Game, Cub Leader Holds Down Initial Sack for Chicago. When the Cubs lined up for the first real workout at New Orleans Thursday, the infield was manned as follows: Frank Chance, 1b: J. Evers, 2b; Joe Tinker, ss, and Dave Shean, 3b. Chance is determined to tarry at the initial sack, but it {fs not gsettied that Shean will continue at third, Heine Zimmerman is tipped to hold down the difficult cushion. The Athletics and Giants will not collide in a spring world series. Previous games had been scheduled, and neither McGraw nor Mack intend to break faith with the Texas Leaguers. Anyhow, the Giants have not had the right kind of practice, bucking J. Pluvius every day they have been at Marlin Springs. Vin Campbell has registered a hit with President Ward of the Boston Nationals. Mr. Ward reached the Braves’ training camp at Augusta, Ga., Thursday and took his first peep at Campbell. He thinks Vin will prove @ sensation. The Braves held their first long session Thursday and Kling is pleased with the outlook. Charles Rigler, the hefty National League umpire, who gets in condition each spring by coaching the Virginia U. nine, is assist- ing Manager Griffith with the Nationals these days. Rigler is at Charlottesville and will remain there until the Washington club winds up its training. He’s the same old Lefty George. He worked two innings in a practice game be- tween the Yannigans and Regulars of Mapn- ager Davis’ Napland squad Thursday and issued two bases on balls. Pitcher Bill James is regarded as the most promising member of the Nap squad at the present writing. Hughey Jennings was kidding those Monroe (La.) correspondents when he told them the Tigers would discard the hit and run and take up “buntation” this sum- mer. With players like Cobb, Crawford, Moriarty, Gainer and Bush, it’s a safe bet that the Detroit batter will continue to hit with the runner. Harry Wolter has reported to Manager Wolverton of the Yankees at Atlanta, while Birdie Cree is on his way to camp. Catcher Ed Sweeney, who has not come to terms with the club, still is among the missing. The Yankees held a long bat- ting practice Thursday. Rain put the White Sox’ practice on the blink again Thursday. Manager Callahan had his men work out in a gymnasium, but James John is getting discouraged over the weather prospects. At Griggs, a member of the Browns: for two years, has signed his contract to play with the Toledo (American Association) club, which will be managed this year by Topsy Hartsel, ex-Athletic. Hartsel intends to play Griggs on first, where he made a failure in St. Louis. Griggs was traded to Cleveland for Catcher Nig Clarke, who recently’ was released to Washington. The Columbia League is dying hard. The meeting of the magnates, scheduled for Chi- cago, Thursday, was postponed indefinitely. It’s time for slow music and flowers. Pitcher Henry Weidell has signed with the Milwaukee club, if anybody cares to know. ST. LEOS WILL PLAY ST. MARKS SUNDAY Manager Bill Klosterman of the cham- pion St. Leo soccer team announced Friday that his eleven would meet the St. Marks, winners of the flag in the Sunday Amateur League, at Athletic Park, Sunday afternoon, at 3 o'clock. This will be the only game played Sun- day. Originally the St. Leos were booked to play a double-header; meeting the St. Marks in the first game and the O’Learys, champions of the Kulage Park League, in the second. The O’Learys canceled their game Thursday, declining to split their share of fhe receipts with the St. Marks. SWIMMER GRIMES TO JOIN M. A. C. SQUAD? Charley Grimes, one of the best water polo players in the country, hag returned to Bt. Leuis after a successful trip to the Pacific Coast. Before departing from here, more than a year ago, Grimes was declared a pro- fessional by the local A. A. U. authorities. However, he proved to the satisfaction of the Pacific Coast division that he was entitled to a membership, and is the champion SO yards swimmer of that section. He beat Will McWard, the former title holder, in a special match. He swam 56 yards 2 feet in 27 4-5 seconds. Grimes, a former.member of the Missouri Athletic Club water polo team, will likely be invited to join the Cherry Diamond sex- tet again. Should he decide to again become a member of the M. A. C., there is no doubt that he will win @ permanent berth with the poloists. se Ss a ee JACK DILLON EASILY PUTS IT OVER COFFEY SAN FRANCISCO, March 8.—Completely outclassing his opponent at every stage of the game, Jack Dillon of Indianapolis last night scored a decisive win over Walter Cof- fey, the California middleweight, at Oakland. It was Dillon's California debut and he scored a big hit with the fans, notwithstand- ing his failure to land a knockout, although he had Coffey hanging on after the first round, Local fight fans do not think that Abe Attell has shot his boit, for they have made him a 10-to-9 favorite over ‘‘Hariem Tommy’”’ Murp Abe a Murphy both finished up their training and from now on will rest until they step in the Daly City arena Saturday afternoon.

THEI bt tr. Bresnahan’s Pitching Prospect Appears Better Than Last Year

nating. the dissatisfied hurlers, who for some reason or other have failed to re- port, Manager Bresnahan has six twirlers who may be considered added possibilities this year. They are: Roy Golden, the altitudinoug young man from Ohio, who worked last year; Loule Loudermilk, also tried out, partially: Gene Dale, the local product; Gene Woodburn, Joe Willis and Fred Baker. With the exception of the latter, all have been seen in St. Louis. From this half dozen, Manager Bresna- han hopes to Set at least two who can serve as regulars along with Harmon, Sallee, Steele, Geyer and possibly Bob Ewing. Should Golden fulfill expectations he will settle the problem. Of the newcomers, Dale, Woodburn, Willis and Baker. the two first-named ap-

pear the best. Willis is a southpaw and will have to fight with Louls Loudermilk for the assistant’s job to Sallee. Willis was a wonderful minor league pitcher, winning 24 and losing 12 games with the Decatur (Three-I League) team. Were he no’ semblance of control. Baker opened the season with the Vic- toria team of the Southwest Texas ey but was sent ville shortly : Bresnahan bought his release in June sent him to Tacoma (Northweste to join Higgins, Morse and mer Cardinals.

TAGE TREATIES KILLED BY SENATE, VIEW OF OFFICIALS Taft Not Expected to Submit the Amended Agreements to En- gland and France. ROOSEVELT IDEAS WIN Upper House, in Ratifying Pro- ject for World Peace, Safe- guards Its Prerogatives. a

By Associated Pregs, WASHINGTON, March 8.—American participation in general arbitration of international difficulties is a dead issue so far as concerns this session of Con- gress, and probably for many years ‘o come, according to Government officials, who today summed up the Senate’s ac- tion yesterday in stripping the proposed arbitration treaties with France and Great Britain of their vital features. There is little thought that President Taft will submit the treaties in their mangled form to either of the Powers for possible . approval. The amended treaties, sent to the White House today, will await the return to Washington of President Taft, and if routine is fol- lowed he will send them to the State Department. The action of the Senate is a victory for Roosevelt ideas over the President. News for Knox by Cable. Secretary Knox, who is due today at Amapala on the west coast of Honduras, will be advised by cable of what has happened and as a matter of form, some consultation must be had between the President and the Secretary before the next step can be taken. As a matter of courtesy, the British and French ambassadors will be in- formed of the Senate’s action but that will not be regarded as an invitation to them to accept the amendments unless followed by further representatione from the State Department. Stripped of the clause which it was claimed would invade the constitutional treaty-making power of the Senate, and with many other limitations added, the general] arbitration treaties between the United States and England and France, proposed by President Taft and Secre- tary Knox, as forerunners of universal peace, were ratified by the Senate by a vote of 76 to 3. The senators who voted against the ratifications were: Lorimer, Martine and Reed. The latter two are Demo- crats. Senator Bacon’s Amendment. By the terms of an amendment pro- posed by Senator Bacon of Georgia, the Senate consented to the ratification of the treaties, with the distinct provision that they do not authorize the submis- sion ‘“‘to arbitration of any question which .affects the. admission of aliens into the. United States, or the admis- Ston of°aliens. to the educational insti- tutions of the several states or the terri- of the United States or concerning the question of the alleged indebtedness or moneyed obligation of any state of the United States, or any question which depends upon themselves or involves the maintenance of the traditional attitude of the United States concerning Amer- ican questions, commonly described as the Monroe doctrine, or other purely governmental policy.” As amended, the treaties provide that all differences, with the exception of the subjects named in the Bacon amend- ment, which it has not been possible to adjust by diplomacy and which are justiceable in their nature, shall be sub- mitted to arbitration at The Hague tri- bunal. Administration View. Ambassador Bryce did not comment, neither did Jules Jusserand, the Ambas- sador from France. Senator Bacon and his colleague, who forced the modification, declared that nothing had been lost in the cause of peace, because 45 nations were now parties to The Hague convention, and they spoke having in mind also the treaties negotiated by Secretary Root. The administration senators’ view was that the elimination was achieved by the massing .of a practically solid Demo- cratic vote with a sprinkling of Repub- licans. Senator Penrose of Pennsylvania, Re- publican leader of the Senate; Heyburn of Idaho, Gronna of North Dakota, Gamble of South Dakota, Stone of Mis- sourl, Poindexter of Washington, Taylor of Tennessee and Davis of Arkansas were absent. Of these Stone, Gronna, Gamble and Davis had been paired. Clause Is Eliminated. The treaty with England was first taken up and the first vote came on an amendment proposed by the Foreign Re- lations Committee, to eliminate clause 3 of article 38—the provision around which the fight has centered—and on this the motion was carried, 42 to 4 Clause 3 would have submitted to a joint high commission the question as to whether or not a difference was subject to arbitration, and its decision was made final. It was contended that that clause would take from the Senate its prerog- ative as part of the treaty-making power.
