1000 ARE IN NEED ~ IN CHARLESTON, MO. Four-Fifths of Mississippi County Under Water, Which Tops 80 Miles of Levee—Sufferers Live in Courthouse.

By Associated Press. MEMPHIS, Tenn., April 0.--Advices received at Memphis this afternoon say that the main levee has broken a mile and a half north of Golden Lake, Ark., about 50 miles north of Memphis. The water is spreading over a wide area in that section. T'orty-five townships will be ¢ov- eres partly by water, The town of Merned Tree; Ark., probably will be Inurdated. Warrivgs were flashed ever the telephone lines to all por- tien«s of the section affected, in the hoe that residentx would seek high grownda before the water reached them. CUARLIESTON, Mo., “April 9.—Mis- sisstppi County has suffered a great loss to Ilvestock and growing crops. When the levees along the 80 miles of river front were toppec by the high water four-fifths of the county was inundated. Warnings had been _telepboned. -throughoyt the county. but the ple ne the Bae de the messager “most of them waited in their homes for the water. Charleston’ sent boats to the aid of persons huddled in their homes, often on scaffolds built in the houses to keep the ’famtly above the water. The county court has made an ap- propriation, which was added to by private contributions, for relief work, and an appeal for help was sent to the United States Government, but no assistance has been received from any source except local persons, who have suffered losses in the _ § flood. Motor boats from Poplar Bluff and skiffs brought many persons here, More than 1,000 persons are being cared for at the Masonic Temple, at the courthouse and in private homes. Funds were almost exhausted by the desperate fight to hold the levees. Help is needed to feed and clothe the throngs of refugees here, and at Anniston and East Prairie. The task of caring. for all these refugees is too large for local resources. Some land is under water in Scott, Pemi- scot and Dunklin counties, Relief for New Madrid County has been obtained. Three negroes have been drowned. i -@-— + River Falling at Hickman, Ky.; Sup- . plies Issued. HICKMAN, Ky., April 8—The river which fell rapidly yesterday, is station- ary today, and it is thought that the vast territory behind the Government levee hag filled. Capt. Logan, who was sent here’ from Washington to investigate the situation, and to expend money for supplies and necessaries is here. Capt. Rogan of the Tennessee State Guards passed also through from Nashville to Tiptonville, to investigate the situation there. A rep- resentative of the Red Cross Society from Washington was also here, and turned over to the Relief Committee $500 to be used for the sufferers. The Gov- ernment rations were also received. The bedding from the Government was received a few days ago, and has been distributed. The weather is cold, but there is no sickness among the refugees, other than whooping cough, among children, and this has been raging in this section all winter. a viiiadiasisaibiets fu t Refugees Are raw stag Tents a MEMPHIS, Tenn., April 9% —Dikes guarding thousands of fertile acres of Arkansas ‘and Mississippi against the flood tide of the Mississippi River held firm today.

MacVeigh Wants Paper Money Made Smaller

Secretary Would Reduce Size of All Greenbacks One-Third— New Designs Uniform. WASHINGTON, April 9.—Secretary of the Treasury MacVeagh, will recom- mend to Congress soon that the paper money of the United States be sub- stantially reduced in size and every de- nomination made uniform in design. It is contemplated to make all notes 6 by 2% inches. Present dimensions are 7.28 by 3.04 inches. The proposed plan would reduce the number of designs for the United States notes and gold and silver certificates frum 19 to 9. Secretary MacVeagh estimates. that the changes would result in a saving of more than $600,u~ annually. The Secretary of the Treasury coull make the innovations with respect to the United States notes and certificates without congressional assent, but it re- quires legislative authority to change the design of the national bank notes. A uniform national bank note, instead of the multiplicity of designs now in use by the 7,000 banks, will be proposed. SCENT ON MONEY GETS AUTO THIEF IN JAIL Man Who Robs, Cole Machine runt MA dé eeught in-Pawn- hep Soon Afterward. The faint scent that clung to a roll of bills taken a short time before from the perfumed chatelaine bag of Mrs. How- ard Cole of 464 West Pine boulevard, resulted in the capture of the thief who stole the bag. It had contained the

money and a platinum watch set with. when taken. diamonds, valued at $450, from the Cole automobile in front of 617 Teocust street at 5:20 p. m., Monday. The bag itself was valued at $500, but after taking it, Thomas Wycoff, the confessed thief, tossed it into the eutter. Ten minutes later he was arrested when trying to pawn the watch in a pawn- shop at Ninth street and Franklin ave- nue. Detectives Danaher and Wardenski were in the pawnshop when Wycvlff, shabbily dressed, entered. ‘luey noted the value of the watch and questioned him. He at first said he had found it. They searched him and found $11. They caught a whiff of dainty perfume from the roll of bills,/and then Wycoff con- fessed the robbery.

—— en HEIRESS SHOWS J $10,000 NO-IAX BOND TO BOARD Miss C. Louise Soeker Carries Red and Gold Document to Equalization Hearing.

IS RAISED Questions Right of Taxation of Notes Secured by Deeds of Trust on Realty. NEW POINT

Miss C. 4207 Magnolia avenue, whose personal tax figures are the largest of any woman in St. Louis, appeared before the Board of Equaliza- tion Tuesday morning at a meeting ar- having protested Louise Soeker, ranged because of her last Tuesday against the tax assessment of her estate, upon which she had made no return. Through her attorney, Judge G. W. Lubke, she raised for the first time be- fore the board the point of the constitu- tionality of the taxation of notes secured by deeds of trust on real estate, of which She holds a total of $164,671.08. It was argued by Judge Lubke that such notes have no value beyond that which comes from the real estate itself, upon which taxes are already paid by the owners, and that the taxing of the secured notes would amount to a double taxation, which is unconstitutional. This point now remains to be settled by the assessment of the estate which Miss Soeker inherited from her uncle, Carl Soeker, who died about two years ago. Bond Is Inspected. Miss Soeker herself spoke not one word during the hearing. Her attorney explained that her other property consisted of $30,000 in Philfp- pine bonds, which are not taxable, and $5000 in r@al estate. Judge Hickman P. Rodgers, attorney for the Board of Equalization, asked Judge Lubke upon what authority he claimed that.the Philippine~ ~borids "Were + nontaxable, and the latter . promptly calied upon Miss S06é6kér to produce one of the bonds for inspection. 4 Miss Soeker took from a silver mesh purse a $10,000 Philippine bond, gorgeous in gold and red decorations. Her attor- ney passed it to Judge Rodgers, and then, in turn, it was inspected by the members of the board. The bond itself states that it is nontaxable, by authori- ty of the United States Government. Although Miss Soeker remained silent throughout these proceedings, she kept a close watch on her $10,000 Philippine bond, and, at the close of its inspection, held out ner hand for its return and carefully replaced it in her purse. Assessment on Estate. Miss Soeker’s total estate is as- sessed at $199,671,08. She was early in reporting at the Board of Equali- zation, arriving at 9 a. m., and then having to wait two hours for a hear- ing. She wore a natty gray spring suit, a black hat trimmed with white lace and having a handsome white plume; diamond ear-rings, a gold necklace, and carried in her hand the _silver- mesh purse which contained the $10,000 Philippine bond, TEMPERATURE IS TO KEEP RISING THE ee ee

SHREVEPORT, La., April 9.—Thomas Miles, a negro, 29 years old, was lynched near the city limits today. The body was found swinging from a tree and had been riddled with bullets. Miles was accused of having written letters to a white girl, but proof was lacking when he was arraigned in court yesterday and he was dismissed. The authorities were ignorant of the lynching until notified at 6 o’clock this morning by C. J. McElroy, a machinist, who discovered the body. Last night Miles was released from the city jail, where he had been held since Sunday night. suspected of writ- ing the improper communication which he in person delivered to the young lady’s rooming house. He claimed that a white man sent him with the letters, but the handwriting corresponded close- ly to his own. The young lady was invited to meet the writer, signed, ‘‘F.. Jones,” and have cold drinks and a general good time. As there was no positive evidence that Miles wrote the communication and in crder to avoid a trial that would cause the young lady humiliation, the police released Miles, warning him to leave Shrevesport at once. It is believed somebody was on watch near the jail, saw him leave there, and then passed the word to the members of the mob, which probably consisted of less than a dozen men. It is suspect- | 06 that en--eutomebtte was ued “toT take the negro to the lynching place. Sandy MclIfityre, another negro re- leased from the jail with Miles, and warned to leave, because of being sus- pected of implication in the letter writ- ing, is missing, but the police believe he left the city. AUTOMOBILE FLIGHT LAW IS UPHELD State Supreme Court Refuses to Quash the Proceeding Against Kneedler. JEFFERSON CITY, April 9.—The Supreme Court in bane today denied the application filed yesterday by Forrest C. Kneedler requiring Judge Withrow of the St. Louis Criminal Court to quash a proceeding against him based upon a complaint brought under the criminal section of the new automobile law. Kneedler, who is a livestock com- mission man of Bast St. Louis, IIl., was a passenger in an automobile that struck and killed a negro pedes- trian on the Eads Bridge last Octo- ber. The charge against him was that he advised the driver to go ahead and not identify himself or the num- ber of the car, as required by the act. Kneedler attacked the validity of this section on the ground it requires a principal or second in an automo- bile accident to furnish information against himself which might be used to convict him in a criminal proceed- ing. Judge Withrow held this section to be valid and the ruling today, al- though no opinion was filed, is taken to mean that the higher court con- curs in the view. WATER DOCTOR IN COURT

Miss Davis gave bond for $200, which was signed by Chris Schawacker, a professional bondsman. The trial was set for April 15. Mrs. Paul Bakewell Jr., who is consid- ered St. Louls’ richest young woman, is expected to testify against Miss Davis.

Promoter Wanted to Make His Company Greatest Publish- ing Concern of World. DRAWS MAP ON A BOARD

He Describes in Detail Woman’s League Plan That Brought $1,288,870 in Subscriptions. E. G. Lewis, on the stand Tuesday as his own witness, told the jury that he put everything he possessed, including his home and his life insurance policies, into the Lewis enterprises in his efforts to save the Investors. ‘We had some furniture, dogs, a cat and a parrot said, with a laugh. Lewis, who is on trial on a charge of using the mails to defraud, testified that he mortgaged his lhme in Univer- sity City for $35,000, and turned the money over to the Reorganization Com- mittee. He said he carried $450,000 life insurance, part of it in endowment poli- cies. On these, he said, $57,000 had ac- crued in 1911. He drew that money, he told, and turned it over to the Reor- ganization Committee. “There was nothing left,”’ he said. two collie left,”’ he ocy j borrowed $2000, getting $500 from each of four men, and went to California, that I might draw the attacks on me away |from my enterprises.’’ Looking steadily at the jury, and speaking firmly, loudly and rapidly, Lewis the last witness for himself, ex- plained in detail his dream of making the Lewis Publishing Co. the greatest in the world, and University City the center of activities of international ex- tent. Lewis spoke so rapidly and enthusi- astically that Attorney Cullen frequent- jurors time to assimilate the testimony. A smaller crowd than usual was pres- ent at the morning session of court. The women numbered not more than 15 and virtually all of them were wit- nesses. At the afternoon session the courtroom was filled, a large part of the crowd being women. Mrs. Lewis was one of the spectators during the day. Dressed in a blue serge suit, Lewis sat with his legs crossed and his arms rest- ing on the arms of the chair. Occasion- ally he would illustrate his remarks with gestures. Once he arose, drew up before the jury a small blackboard. which was in the courtroom, and outlined in chalk the plans of certain improvements made or contemplated in University City. Had to Put Up Deposit. Lewis told the jury how he had dreamed of building up what he consid- ered the greatest publishing business in the world, of making the American Woman's League the most successful subscription agency ever devised, and of having many powerful organizations, the Typographical Union among them, estab- lish headquarters, at University City. Telling of his actual work in connec- tion with his various University City enterprises, Lewis said he scarcely ever finished his day’s work before midnight. And then, as an extra labor, he wrote each night an article to be printed in the Woman’s National Daily the fol- lowing day, “telling just what he was doing and how.”’ Got Idea of Debenture. It was after writing one of these ar- ticles one night, he said, that he got the idea for the debenture system which he later put into execution. He ex- plained that by this system each person sending in $100 received a membership in the American Woman's League, val- ued at $100, and one of the debenture bonds. The membership in the league actually cost the league only $15, he said. He then told of writing an article for the National Dally, headed “Article of Solution,” and explaining the debenture system. It was this article, he said, which was signed by L. B. Tebbetts, chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Lewis Publishing Co. He said it was understood by the board that he was to write the grticle for Tebbetts and that in writing it, he tried to put himself in Tebbetts’ place and frame of mind. He said Tebbetts corrected the article in the proof, although at first “they” would not believe that Lewis had writ- ten it. He did not explain whom he meant by “they.” Lewis sald he arrived at a basis on which to figure the debenture system by means of a consolidated balance sheet of the assets and liabilities of the Lewis companies. This showed, he said, that there was ‘“‘so much” owing on the 6 per cent bonds, ‘‘so much” on the 7 per cent bonds, and “so much” for mis- cellaneous ind@btednesses, the total amounting to about $3,000,000, exclusive of inter-company debts. Assets of $8,000,000. The assets of all the Lewis compa- nies, as he figured them, amounted to between $8,000,000 and $9,000,000. Attor- ney Houts wanted to know in what he based this estimate. “A man’s judgment is no better than his information,” said Lewis. “I based it on my valuation of the publications.

“TARE AMAL,” IS UUURT'S ADVICE 10 WORKERS ORATOR

Peter Demate, Accused of Peace Disturbance, Discharged by Judge Kimmel. - et ee Peter Demate, an orator for the Indus- trial Workers of the World, was dis- charged in Judge Kimmel’s court Tues- day, where he was accused of disturb- ing the peace by making a speech. The reason for the Court’s action was that the policeman who arrested him testified he ‘stopped Demate from speaking before he got started.’ After mildly admonishing the man he mustn't blockade the sidewalks, telling him his speeches were not Socialistic, but an- archistic and inflammatory, Judge Kim- mel advised Demate to hire a hall and speak to his heart’s content. Patrolman Lange was the only wit- ness examined. He said that a crowd of some 200 or 300 persons had congregated at Broadway and Market streets, that he ordered the crowd to cléar the side- walks and that Demate ‘‘got mean,’’ in- sisting that the Constitution guaranteed him the right of free speech. Lange declared that when he ar- rested the man the crowd began to cry “Soak him!” “Lynch him!” and to throw bricks at the policeman. Demate advanced upon him, he added, and he rapped the man across the legs with his stick. Before he got the man out of the crowd, the police- draw his revolver. “But what did this man do?” Judge Kimmel asked him, “I didn’t give him a chance to try to speak,” Lange replied. “I broke it up right away.” Judge Kimmel] told him he should have charged Demate with obstructing traffic and not with disturbing the peace. He told Demate the courts had no wish to restrict his right of free speech so long as he does not make speeches that will incite riots. Monday Judge Kimmel fined Carle Reve, another Industrial Workers of the World orator, 0 and gave him hours to leave town. Capt. Schwartz, commanding Central District Station, told the Post-Dis- patch he is willing to take full re- sponsibility for the arrests of Rave and

Patrolman Frank H. Schlelifstein of the Central District died at his Sore, 2857 Wisconsin avenue, Tuesday. He had been ill @ year and a half ag a result of being shot in the groin by a negro burglar whem he attempted to capture on the levee. : There is a tradition in the Police De- partment that Schleifstein was the in- spiration of the famous song, ‘‘Ta-ra-ra Boom de Ay.”’ According to this story, Schleifstein, while walking a Morgan street beat in 1890, was such a terror to negroes that they composed a song, the refrain of which was: Look out, look out, stay off the street, Officer Schleifstein’s on his beat, Ta-ra-ra Boom de Ay. Many other traditions about this song exist. Nearly all agree that it originated in St. Louis. Schleifstein was 6 feet 3% inches tail. He was 52 years old. He joined the force in 1889.

STRIKERS ENJOINED FROM INTERFERING

Nearly 400 More Workmen Go Out and Union Officials Ex-

The strike situation at Hamilton- Brown shoe factories became more acute Tuesday when the ynion or- ganizers called out between 300 and 400 men and the company obtained a temporary restraining order from Judge ‘Hitchcock commanding the strikers not to interfere with persons employed. to take their places. The injunction was directed against the United Shoeeworkers of America and 120 individuals, including Percy ©. Turner, head of the shoeworkers’ association and Grant Smith, a St. Louis leader. No time limit was set on the duration of the order, the writ instructing the defendants. to await further orders of the court. Turner told a reporter for the Post- Dispateh that the men who walked out Tuesday were experts, and he declared that the company would find it almost impossible to replace them. He said that to take the places of the strikers the company is employing unskilled for- eign laborers and paying them 15 cents an hour to learn the work. In this he found hope for the success of the strike, he said. Greatiy Hamper One Plant. “Thig will hamper the American Gen- tleman plant especially,”’ he said. ‘‘The shoes cannot be- turned out by unskilled workmen. Our organization practically includes all the available workmen of the ability needed for this work. I don't see how we can fail.”’ Turner blamed the Hamiiton-Brown company for the strike. He said that the union men submitteé a scale which would provide for an 8 per cent increase and that the company replied by com- piling a scale showing a wage cut of 16 per cent. He declared the company had refused to recognize its employes’ right to strike and had refused to recog- nize the organization. In sympathy with the strike of the union men it is said by the leaders that hundreds of unorganized employes at the Sunlight factory, Ninth and Marion streets, have arranged to strike. Turner saye that the wages paid at this plant are the lowest in any shoe factory in the United States or Canada, and, so far as he can learn, anywhere else. He says men get only $8 or $9 a week, while women and girls earn only $4 or $5 a week. Expect 8000 te Go Out. That 2000 or 3000 persons will be in- volved in the strike unless the company yields is a prediction at the headquarters of the Shoeworkers’, Association, 2714 Olive street. Turner declared that the American Gentleman and Jefferson and Randolph factories were practically closed. With the higher type of skilled workmen out of the way, he argued there will not be enough to keep the less skilled employed, and they, too, will have to quit. A call was made at the Hamiiton- Brown factory .Tuesday for A. D. Brown to get his statement about the situation. The reply was that neither Brown nor any person with authority to speak for him was in. lowan Cremated When He Tries to Save Furniture.

He was eked what an audit was and said he .4 fot know, but that he knew it cost 1m between $8000 and $9000. When the Reorganization Committee ‘as constituted, he said, he turned over wit all he possessed, as he had prom- dsed the American Woman's League he would do. He was asked regarding what was received from the issuance of the debentures. He said little cash came in, as the outstanding notes of the Lewis companies were accepted in exchange for the debentures. Only ‘bout $200,000 in cash came in, he said, but that $1,300,000 azine business, Cale tera’ had been permitted to send out'’as many sample copies as we had paid-up subscribers, and this en- abled us to do without the services of subscription agencies, which are so ex- pensive that only the big magazines ean afford them. The sample copies sent out brought new subscribers at a cost which was insignificant in compari- son with that of agency service. ‘ His Privileges Changed. “when the privilege was restored, However, this had been changed s0 ' that we were not permitted to send out f 10 per cent sample copies in excess 0 of our paid circulation. This. brought r eompany face to face with a new chnaitien, and I realized that a change » the entire plant would be necessary. tN saw that we must begin issuing ‘@ higher-class magazine.” ‘Lewis said that in the fall of 1907 he devised the American Woman's League a new form of subscription agency. pod gaid he had learned that women are the principal readers of magazines, and at within the United States there were woman’s guilds which depended for support on fairs, bazars and similar re- He .also learned, he said, that tem cent of the guilds were formed for educational purposes. “] pealized,"’ he said, “‘that if I could enlist these women, I would have one of the greatest sales agencies in the and the biggest magazine publish- business in the country.” ’ The plan, Lewis said, was to have each thember of the league get $52 worth of subscriptions to the Lewis publications and give 66 per cent of the money to the of the league, which was fe tte headquarters at University jwhere the schools were to be ‘lo-

He accordingly began ' “Beautiful Homes” and ‘Pal- and Brush,’’ and also extended the #ibscription agency privilege to Collier's ‘Weekly and four other high-class publi- “Twelve other big magazines immedi- ately asked for the same privilege,”’ he Maid. “intimating they would support us i and fight us if denied. Well,

beg and established the Art Academy the league into affiliation with estab- lished schools teaching by correspon- at University City with, masters in charge of the vari@us departments. Stu- dents in the correspondence courses were permitted to take competitive ex- aminations, he said, and the honor stu- dents were given the privilege of a year’s study under a master, with pay for the time so spent. Lewis and M. Taxile Doat, a diotin- guished French artist, was in charge of the department of ceramics; George Julian Zolnay, head of the school of sculpture; Prof. William Laird Turner, brought here from Philadelphia, of the textile department; Ralph Chesley Ott of the school of drawing and painting; a Mrs. Cherry of the china decorating and painting department. and Prof. Squire Browne of the “bread and butter courses,’’ which included common school and commercial branches. Lewis then told of his plans for the correspondence school. He said he en- gaged Hugo Munsterberg of Harvard to Supervise a course of supplemental in- struction and the expenses of the Amer- ican University were paid from the funds of the American Women’s League. Once during his examination he was asked about the plan of University City and he stepped down to the black- board to illustrate. With a crayon in one hand, a sponge in the other, he rapidly sketched the plan of the city and pointed out its fea- tures to the jury. When he had finished he told the jury that his plan for the place was to make it the most beautiful city in the world and to put the pupils to work in that endeavor. Wanted Best of Talent. A part of the plan of the American University, he said, was to enlist the best talent in the world and utilize it in making University a beauty spot. As to the number of pupils enrolled, he said there were 25,000 taking all courses, 51,000 enrolled and 30 honor students. When asked the population of Univer- sity City, he said it was now 3600, and HIS OWN WITNESS;

ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATOH.

" BUKLEGATES ~ ROOSEVELT CLAIM Jesse A. Tolerton Wires News ‘of Expected Majority to Senator Dixon.

DEFEAT FOR STIFEL

It Is Expected That the Colonel’s Followers Will Shelve St. Louis Man.

Sygcial Correspondence of the Post- : Dispatch. JEFFERSON CITY, April %- ¥Yelt’s control of the Republican State seomvention which meets in S8t. Louis April 25 for the selection of four dele- @Pates at iarge and four alternates to the national convention practically clinched. The Colonel now has 535% delegates instructec and 19% uninstruct- ed @elegates will support him. Taft has but 129% instructed for him, In adalition 25% delegates known to favor his candidacy. These figures give Roosevelt 558% del- egates, or only 12% short of control. They give Taft a total of MM. Bt. lois with its 247, and the delegates in- Roose- is ale toge ther others he may yet gather in, will not be enough to save the four delegates at large to him. Roosevelt fn Control. The First, Second, Fourth, Sixth, Sev- enth, Fifteenth and Sixteenth districts are new in control of the Roosevelt forces, all of them by overwhelming ma- jority except the Seventh, which will be close if Taft controls Greene County’s delegation. Giving Taft Greene County, the Seventh will stand 42 for Roosevelt and 38 for Taft. There are no contests, so the Colonel's forces will get it. Christian and New Madrid counties have contests. Twenty-two delegates are in controversy. The Christian County Roosevelt delegation seems to be regu- lar. while the Taft New Madrid delega- tion has appearances of regularity. Jesse A. Tolerton wired Senator Dixon last night that Roosevelt would land 26 of the 36 delegates from Missouri to the national convention. To Defeat Stifel. Otto Stifel, candidate for committeeman, will in all likelihood go down defeat along with the Taft forces in the state convention it looks now as if Thomas K. Nied- ringhaus or Dr E. B, Clements of Macon, will be put forward by the Roosevelt forces who will apparently have things their own way. Some delegates have been instructed for Niedringhaus and a few for Clements. Stifel got instructed dele- gates in many of the counties carried Taft but not in all. national Lo by

j STONE SEES CLARK AS NOMINEE IF it CARRIES ILLINOIS Senator Believes Decisive Vic- tory in State Will About Set- tle Big Contest. HERE FOR CONFERENCES Meets Missouri Leaders in Speak- er’s Cause—City Republicans to Ballot.

Saloons Open Only 1 Hour in City G. O. P. Primary Wednesday N account of the Republican [> primary election, St. Louls will be dry Wednesday. So- cial clubs, as well as saloons, must remain closed from 1 a. m. until 7 Pp. m., according to the ruling of Excise Commissioner Lee. The polls will open at 1 p. m. and close at 8 p. m., leaving just one election hour during which the sa- loons will ber open.

United States Senator Stone, one of Speaker Champ Clark’s field managers, held conferences in St. Louis Tuesday at the Planters Hotel with several of Clark’s local and State managers. Sen- ator Stone spent the past 10 days in IIli- nois campaigning for Clark. “If Clark wins a decisive victory in the Illinois primaries today, I think it will about settle the Democratic presidential contest,’’ said Senator Stone. “I think Clark will win a majority of the dele- gates, but I cannot tell. ‘“*‘Woodrow Wilson made a strong fight in Illinois and Ras many strong men supporting him in the primaries. It seems likely that Clark will get some of the Illinois delegates and Wilson some. The candidate getting the great- est number of votes, under the new primary law, will be entitled to the State’s delegates-at-large. Arkansas for Clark, “Under this law the congressional district is the unit, instead of the state. Delegates to the national con- vention are elected by. each congres- sional district, just as the Republi- cans have been electing their dele- gates for years. The old unit rule system is destroyed by the Illinois primary.” Jerry South, Clark’s Arkansas cam- paign manager, met Senator Stone, Ed Glenn, Lon V. Stephens and other Clark leaders at the Planters Hotel Tuesday. South said that Clark was sure to get the 18 Arkansas delegates at the state convention, June 6. Of the 580 delegates, South said 300 were instructed for Clark, three for Wil- son, none for Harmon, and the others uninstructed. Republican Primaries, The Republican city primaries to elect 245 delegates to the Republican State Convention, to be held in St. Louis April %, and delegates to the Tenth, Eleventh and Twelfth Congressional Dis- trict conventions, will be held in St. Louis and St. Louis County Wednes- day. The polls will be open in two precinct polling places in each ward from 1 p. m. to 8 p. m. The Roosevelt leaders have delega- tions filed in but seven of the 28 wards of the city. The Taft leaders are claim- ing at least 200 of the St. Louis dele- gates to the State convention. According to figures given out Tues- day at Jefferson City by Jesse Tolerton, one of the Roosevelt campaign mana- gers, Roosevelt already has more than 600 delegates to the State convention instructed for him. This would insure Roosevelt the four delegates at large from Missouri, with the indorsement of the State. Twenty-six of the 36 dele- gates from the congressional districts a}- ready have been instructed for Roose- velt, according to Tolerton, In the Republican primaries held in 18 counties Monday, Roosevelt won 15° delegates to the State convention, and Taft 43. Jasper County, with 30 dele- gates, and Buchanan, with 28, were both carried by Roosevelt. In the St. Jo- seph primary Roosevelt polled 2108 votes and Taft 869. a a TAFT INSTRUCTIONS IN NEW YORK WAIT

Plan of Compromise, Without Definite Order Is Being Considered. ROCHESTER, N. Y., April 9.—Dele- gates to the Republican State conven- tion who met here to select four dele- gates-at-large to the Chicago convention and adopt a platform, were carefully canvassed early today to ascertain their sentiments regarding an instruction of the delegates for President Taft and the State leaders agreed that a decision probably would not be reached until to- night. The convention was scheduled to meet at 11 o'clock and after hearing the ad- dress of Temporary Chairman Nicholas Murray Butler and the announcement of the Committee on Resolutions, was “ -e to adjourn until tomorrow. he coming of Senator Root and his open declaration that the “big four’ should be instructed, gave impetus to such & ‘movement.

Roosevelt Intimates if Beaten He Will Try Again, FORT WAYNE, Ind., April 9.—In a speech at Peru, Ind., Col. Roosevait made a statement that was interpreted to mean that if he were beaten in his present fight he would make another one. In addressing a.crowd at the railway station, he said: “If, after hearing me you decide against me, very well. I'll try it again another time and try to get you.”

By Associated Press. CHICAGO, April 9.—Voters are today engaged in casting their ballots at a state-wide primary, considered the most important in the history of Dlinois. The day dawned beautifully and the forecast for the State was for fair weather. Because of the many names on the ticket in every district the voting was slow and fewer votes were recorded in the city and country districts in the early hours than is usual. Fair weath- er brought out the votes in the country districts and campaign managers pre- dicted an unprecedented vote. Governor Deneen voted in his home precinct in the _ thirty-first ward shortly before noon. Senator Lorimer lil. Senator Lorimer - was unable to go to the polls because of illness. He became ill last night and is in bed today with a cold. While his condi- tion is not regarded as dangerous he may be confined to his home _ for several days. Hundre’ts sf voters f= the Firat Ward left the polls without voting hecause of the failure of officials to xet the voting machines in operation for several hourg after the polis opened. Mrs. A. O. Erickson, wife of an assist- ant State's Attorney, caused confusion in the Twenty-third Ward among work- ers for woman suffrage, which ts being voted on today in Chicago only, by ap- pearing at the polls and opposing votes for women. “Women are too hysterical and nerv- ous to vote, in my opinion,”’. said Mrs. Erickson. ‘I do not believe they should be allowed to cast ballots with men.”’ A heavy vote against woman suffrage was cast in the river wards, according to the reports received. Five Aspirants for President. The election is.important nationally for the reason that it is the first time in Illinois a: preferential vote has even been cast for President. Preference wil] be shown only among the Republicans and Democrats. The names of President Taft, Theodore Roosevelt and Robert M. La Follette appear on the Republicari ballot and those of Champ Clark and Woodrow Wilson on the Democratic. Ali have either made personal campaigns in the State or have had representatives making them, since the Legislature, in extra session 10 days ago, made it possi- ble for the preferential presidency vote to be held. - Republicans, Democrats, Socialists and Prohibitionists will nominate by direct vote complete State congressional and legislative county tickets. A preferential! vote also is being taken for United States Senator among the Republicans and Democrats. Four names apear on the Republican ballot and only one on the Democratic. Some Voters Go in Boats, In Cairo it was said that voters were making their way to.the polls in many instances in boats. In other parts of the flooded districts voters experienced | much inconventence in reaching the vot- ing booths. The polls opened at 6 o’clock and will close at 5 o’clock this’ afternoon. Extensive precautions to prevent fraud at the polls here were taken by Coun- ty Judge John E. Owens, when 150 pri- vate detectives, 53) city detectives and a score of investigators employed by. the Election Board were assigned ta duty at lodging house precincts in the/river wards to watch for irregularities. This force was augmented later by a corps of several hundred university students. The first violence reported was in the Eighth Congressional District on the West Side, where Alderman Joltn Powers is opposing the renomination of Congressman Thomas Gallagher, a Dem- ocrat. Thomas B. O'Brien, a political worker for Congressman Gallagher, was severely beaten by three unidentified men at one of the polling places. No ar- rests were made.

Dixon to Accuse Kentucky Federal Employes. WASHINGTON, April 9.—In a de- tailed statement on the Kentucky situation given out by the Taft head- quarters today, United States Sena- tor Bradley of Kentucky asserts that the “claims of the Roosevelt managers are utterly unreliable be- cause they are entirely false in many respects and partly false in others.” Senator Joseph M. Dixon announced at the Roosevelt headquarters today that he had prepared charges to be filed at once with the civil service commission, against internal revenue department employes and other fed- eral officeholders whom the Rooge- velt managers charge with undue political activity in the Kentucky delegate elections last Saturday.

Kentucky Prepares to Complete Dele- mate List. LOUISVILLE; Ky., April 9.—Sixteen delegates to the Republican national convention are to be chosen at dis- trict conventions at Kentucky this af- ternoon and tonight. The First, Second and Sixth District yesterday elected six delegates, instructed for Taft. The State convention will be held here to- morrow to choose four delegates-at- large, completing Kentucky's delega- tion of 26. Contests numerous enough to swing the majority in the convention whichever way they may be decided have been filed In nearly every district holding its convention today.

me ee ee eS eS ““DESPOTISM IN LEAGUE WITH ANARCHY. The three ‘‘commissioners’” Gen. Orozco has sent to the United States reach the climax of their denunciation of the Madero administration _by declaring that Madero is the “first President ot Mexico whu dares not protect even the persons and property of foreigners.” Here they stop. They cannct go further with- out making it clear that the protection needed is against Orozco, as he now heauds the elements “which are doing all they can to force the rescora- “tion Of *he Diaz party by creating anarchy, threatening life and making property insecure, as “fert-as they are able. /The people of the United States are not called on to support the administration of Madero or any other administration in Mexico. They un- derstand clearly, however, that the rally of the forces of despotism, supporting Diaz, is now one and the same thing with the rally of the forces of anarchy under Orozco. —_——__——_+—____—_--- ogiXi having denounced the 1912 Irish home FAIRNESS TO ST. LOUIS. Railroad managers admit that the bridge toll is a gross discrimination. This was frankly admitted when the arbitraries on shipments beyond the 100-mile zone, which made St. Louis a switch Station on the railroad map, were abolished after a fight for justice extending over nearly a third of a century. The tolls within the 100-mile zone were re- tained, not because the railroads claimed they were just, but because they insisted that it was Inot expedient at that time to abolish all the tolls. There was an understanding with the municipal commission, which represented the city in the arbitrary negotiations, that all tolls should be abolished. The abolition of every toll or spe- cial charge within the radius of the Terminal As- sociation’s system of bridges and tracks was def- initely stated by the committee as an ultimate necessity. But we have the public admission of the in- justice of the toll on coal and the necessity of readjusting it from a leading railroad manager. On Jan. 16, at the dinner of the Business Men’s League, President B. F. Yoakum of the Frisco said: There is no doubt there should and must be a readjustment of the differential now exist- ing between the rates on coal to East St. Louts amd toe St. Louis. The Frisco Line pledges you its continued activity in the mat- ter until a substantial and fair reduction in the differential shall be an accomplished fact. Can the St. Louis railroads afford to main- tain an admitted damaging discrimination against one of their great shipping centers? Can they af- ford to keep at a disadvantage with reference to other cities a manufacturing and commercial cen- ter of such promise and possibility of prosperous activities as St. Louis? Can they afford to enforce an unjust charge because they have the power? We submit these questions to the representa- tives of the railroads in the Terminal Associa- tion, who are now considering the abolition of the tolls. Would it not be wise to give St. Louis justice, and not only gain the good will and co-operation of her citizens, but reap the profits of the great expansion of industry and commerce which will inevitably follow the unshackling of St. Louis business? ‘= =] i A A Illinois cannot vote any way today without indorsing Lincoln.

They were for Parker and the Democratic party in 1904.—Mr. Roose- velt in Illinois. Does Mr. Roosevelt think that because Mr. Harriman is dead and Congress has neglected to investigate the gigantic 1904 corruption fund the facts have not been given a permanent place in history? In Mr. Roosevelt the special] inter- ests found a much more valuable friend than in Mr. Parker.

I visited this place numerous times and noticed that old and young crowded about the aquarium and gave but passing notide to the other ex- hibits. Then could be seen through glass the varied and strange life of fresh and salt water. I hope your suggestion will bear fruit. E. A. NOONAN.

The Future American. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. In New York Flannigan was arrested by a German policeman, on information lodged by a Greek, and then he was haled before an American judge and defended by an Italian advocate. The future American—just what will he be? JEFFERSON W. PAYNE. The Roosevelt Panic Lingers on. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Of all men who would aspire to the nomination for President, Roosevelt is the last man on this earth who should have the courage to ask that favor of the American people. This country today is suffering from things done during the administration of Roosevelt. His administration was marked by a finincial panic that this country has never fully recovered from. Until that panic it was not a hard time for any man to obtain a place, but though that panic is some four years old, there are men who have never got on their feet financially since. I received a card asking me to vote for Roose- velt, I will not answer that card, but thought I would answer same through your paper. Theo- dore Roosevelt is a man of the past with me and a good many American people and his defeat will be almost certain. PROGRESSIVE. | PTR RP ERS ae Peg ag. ag me ting " _

At least as a matter of form, however, to concentrate rétributive effort through process of detective elimination, the Hon. Champ Clark should be taken,to. the station and interrogated; also the Hom.

Successive attempts to detach political assets from Gov. Wilson are attributed to a combine of these rival candidates. Possibly the partial success of their joint ef- forts in’Oklahoma, Kansas and certain southern states. led the combine to believe it would also be successful in stripping him of his clothes.

With all her earnest nature now engaged in waging war on such depravity as she learns ot in her settlement work in the slums of Chi- cago, Miss’ Jane Addams is likely to be more effective through any use she can make of gov- ernmental agencies than Anthony Comstock, and those associated with him in societies for the suppression of vice have ever been. | Nevertheless Miss Addams and those to whom she appeals in St. Louis and other cities may well profit by education from failures, made more demoralizing by Comstock’s earnestness. The idea that children can be protected by begin- ning early to give them a scientific education in the meaning and results of vice, contra- dicts what has been accepted as conclusive from universal experience. The increased interest which Comstock’s public efforts aroused in such subjects was not “prophylactic,” nor can the use of scientific terms make it more so. It might threaten the organization of the public school system to introduce the Comstock idea in pub- lic schools, when under compulsury attendance laws, education in .he meaning of vice would be made compulsory on all public school pupils. Miss Addams may be far better educated in every way than Anthony Comstock. Perhaps, however, except as educated women are educated by. protecting children of their own, they cannot qualify as “scientific experts’’ in what protection for ehildhood ought to mean. Bociety cannot be saved by legal regulation or by scientific instruction in vice and its con- sequences. Something deeper and finer than that is needed.

a he rye A NOVELTY IN ACADEMICS. In her suit for damages for dismissal from Chicago University Miss Esther Mercy, the dis- charged pupil, and Miss Marion Talbot, dean of women at the ifistitution, seem from the evi- dence to have bandied about that short and ugly word with Rooseveltian abandon. The crux of difficulty concerned a $100 suit and a $250 | hat which the dean disapproved Miss Mercy’s wearing, while Migs Mercy contended that her clothing was not @ matter in the university's jurisdiction. The situation is interesting. A university has the right, admittedly, to inflict its academic beliefs upon a pupil, but there seems to be room for ‘doubt whether a liberal university, which makes ne claim to dictate the dress of its students, pre- vious to admitting them, can set up any such right subsequently. If it can, how far can it go? | Cam f€ taboo high heels? Can it drive out girls who wear false hafr or hobble skirts? Would it ;phave the moral or legal right to oust a young man who insisted on wearing checkered neckties or purple sox?

fo the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Now that summer is about here, the Meramec, Mississippi and many other ponds will be claim- ing their dead. Most drownings occur on Sunday. It is not only small boys that drown, but men as well. It is the delight of the small boy to £0 swimming. “Going swimming today Jimmy?” “No I ain’t got 15c.” “Well let’s go to the river.” That’s the sort of conversation, that can be overheard between the boys in warm weather, They generally start after dinner, and walk to the river in all haste, so they can get a good swim as they call it. Their parents do not know where they are, and the boys fear telling them on account of the whipping they might get. So they go just the same, day after day, to the dangerous swimming hole. Now why don’t the city,make swimming pools in the public parks like Forest, Fairground and O’Fallon Parks. They seem to think that the art of swimming is a by-sport. If the parks had pools I dare say there would be mofe in the water than playing baseball. Swimming fs one of the most healthful sports. It brings in action every muscle of the body, and more, it exercises the lungs. Now why don’t the people of St. Louts encourage swimming like other cities, A WOULD BE SWIMMER. Apollo Club Final Concert, fo the Editor of the Post-Dispatch, It does seem a pity that the Apollo Club could not arrange its final concert for some other even- ing than April 16—the evening of the London Orchestra Concert at the Coliseum. We often wonder what is the matter with our city in matters musical and dramatic? This is an example of the discourtesy shown to visiting art- ists and clubs. I am a subscriber of the Apollo Club, but wish to avail myself of the opportunity to hear the London Orchestra, which may never come to this country again and at the same time I do not care to pay $10 to the Apollo Club for three concerts and be unable to hear one. Will you not take up this matter with officers of the Apollo Club and urge upon them to change the date of their next concert, SUBSCRIBER. Colored Men Grateful. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. We, as colored lodgemen and citizens of the United States, wish to thank Judges Horr and his supporters at Fort Smith, Ark., for his action and stand on the negro Lewis lynching case, In the future such merit shall be recognized by us from the North to the South in the time and at the time you need our support.

The little bronze clock on the mantel shelf chimed out the hour as her hus- band entered the room, and, to all ap- pearances she was deeply engrossed the columns of the morning paper. “Good morning, Kate.’ Mrs. Gregory could scarce believe her ears. Three months and 18 days they had been married, and in all that time Peter had never ventured to address her as Kate—plain Kate. ‘Good morning, Peter,” she was surprised into replying and raised her eyes. He was gazing at her, smilingly it is true, but without a trace of affection in his expression. She stole a glance at her husband across the top of the newspaper. He was eating his breakfast quite unconcernedly, and her wrath blazed out anew. It really was Peter’s fault that they had quarreled, she told herself. He had rushed into the house the night before, and, without consulting her feel- ings or inclinations in the matter, had picked her up and romped her around till she was fairly out of breath. “I dis- like to be ‘pawed,’ Peter,’ ’’ was what she said. ‘“‘Pawed”" wasn’t elegant, either, she remembered belatedly. Her husband laid his napkin on the table, pushed back his chair, and rose to his feet. “Good-by, Kitty,’’ he said. Mrs. Gregory’s ah bent lower. Even then she would have been willing to for- give him, if he had come around the table and had offered to kiss her—of course, in a properly penitential frame of mind. But deep down in her heart she knew that he would do nothing of the kind. Then. at 11 o’clock, her hus- band telephoned that he would not be home for lunch. “T shall _be detained at the Catharine,”’ he informed her, office, briskly, ,and hung up the transmitter. Catharine! He might have employed the same tone of voice in speaking to his stenographer. Mrs. Gregory stared thoughtfully at her reflection in the mir- ror. Why had she quarreled with Peter the right before? Why was she always Was it because she was so thoroughly in earnest upon But Peter was also an advocate of woman’s cause—she | couldn’t endure a man that was behind ithe times. Rut whereas Peter discussed ‘the subject entertainingly and» had al) ‘the data of the movement at his fingers’ ‘ends, she lived it, breathed it, joyed in each victory gained, and plunged in the ‘deepest gloom at each defeat.

Then she noticed that Peter was about the temples And he was growing thinner. “You have quite a treasure in Bertha’ his voice broke in upon her méditations “Have a cutlet?’’°—and he passed the ‘platter across the table Mrs. Gregory helped herself to a cut- let. | va sec by the papers,’”’ he went on egain, ‘‘that the ladies are oe to fight the tariff on stockings—‘and hairpins and powder puffs and things and things.’’’ He looked up from his plate and forced a smile as he made‘ the familiar quotation. “And I learned today,’’ he added, calm- ly ignoring his wife’s silence, ‘“‘that the working women of England are better protected legally than their sisters in the United States. Have some custard? 1 wonder how Bertha manages to get such a delicious golden brown color on the top of her custards.”’ Mrs. Gregory declined the custard. “Did you see where the young woman suffragette, who was standing on a pedestai outside the House of Commons, kicked off the policeman’s helmet?” He laughed. ‘“T—TI read the incident,’’ his wife re- piled. Mr. Gregory glanced across the table. “Why, Kate,” he exclaimed, in pretend- ed surprise, ‘‘you are not eating any- thing. Aren’t you well?” “T’'m well enough,’’ she answered chok- ingly. “T’ve got some tickets,”’ he said, when they were seated again. “‘‘A Mrs. Ada (ements-Dwight is going to lecture this evening upon ‘The Intellectual Life,’ ’’— and he smiled grimly. ‘‘Would you care to go? No.” He shrugged his shoulders and tapped with his fingers lightly on the arm of his chair. Mrs. Gregory stole sideways glances at her husband. She knew Peter. She knew that once he was resolved upon a course of action he would keep it up in- definitely. The determination that was reflected in the severe cast of his thoughtful profile and the resolute set of his athletic shoulders had already won for him an enviable position in the world of business, and he would climb higher. He was the kind that always did climb higher. ‘Catharine, vawn, ‘“‘I should downtown. Would you along?” She shook her head. She didn’t want to go herself, nor did she want her hus- band to go and leave her behind. But what right had she to detain him? He had attempted to converse with her upon the subjects of the hour, and she had re- plied to all he said with monosyllables; he had offered to escort her to a lecture, where he would no doubt have been pro- foundly bored, and she had declined to go: he had suggested a walk, and she had refused to bear him company—what right had she to oppose his freedom of action, when she was such a stickler for her own? And why oh! why, had she used that most objectionable eion? It was positively ill-bred. ’ he said, suppressing a like to take a walk care to come the room, not hastily, nor slowly, but coolly and determinedly as he did every- thing; and all the while her heart beat out a mad tattoo of “danger!” She wanted to call out to him—to stop him-- to bid him to remain, but some paralyz- ing influence—some force, against which . sealed her lips. : vainly struggled, And his fingers were on the handle of the door. If she let him go now, her brain ground out objectively. If she let | ‘im go now—— she oul was in that cry.

Written for the Post-Dispatch By ROY L. McCARDELL. I'll tell you what we'll 66 do!” said Mrs. Jarr, as she seated herself on the arm of the easy chair and ran her fingers through Mr. Jarr’s hair in that playful way womankind has to show &® man that he is forgiven for all his crimes and misdemeanors. The same process is used to show him how happy home life may be if a hus- band will only be generous in the mat- ter. of sundry funds for personal apparel —but not for HIS person. ‘“What'll we do?” asked Mr. Jarr. ‘‘We'll never, never, never quarrel again!’ cooed Mrs. Jarr. “I don’t care how meanly you treat me after this, I am never going to quarrel with you. And I don’t care how much you-impose on me, either.”’ This generous appeal was not with- out its effect on Mr. Jarr’s better na- ture. ‘You're all right, kid. You're all right,’”’ he murmured. ‘‘Besides,’”’ his angel wife went on, “T think it’s dreadful that the children should see us quarreling. They are getting old enough to notice such things. How can we expect to control them when we do not control our- selves.’” “What will it cost?” asked Mr. Jarr, “Or is this a peace-~at-no-cost proposi- tion ?”” ‘Now, 9 that’s just like you!” cried Mrs. Jarr. ‘‘When I try to be kind—no. I don’t mean ‘try,’ for I am always kind, if you'd but permit it—you make some cutting remark like that!’’ And Mrs. Jarr arose from her seat on the chair arm. ‘‘Thought you weren't going to get mad, no matter what I said?’ chuckled Mr. Jarr. (That’s the way they always impose on a good-natured woman.) “I didn’t say I wouldn't get mad no matter what yow said,’’ replied Mrs. Jarr in a hurt tone, “I said I wouldn’t get mad no matter what you DID. There's a great difference.”’ “What's the difference,’’ asked Mr. Jarr. “There’s a great deal of difference,”’ was the reply. ‘“‘What a man does he generally does when his wife isn't around, and what he says he says to her.’’ “Oh, I see,” replied Mr. Jarr. ‘Well, then I'll say to you that I was only joking. I wouldn't say or even do any- thing to hurt you for all the world.” ‘Oh, you don't mean that. That’s just to fool me!” said Mrs. Jarr. “Then if I say anything unkind I mean it, and if I say anything nice I don't mean it?’ asked Mr. Jarr. “Of course. And that’s why I feel so hurt when you say mean things I know you are in earnest about,’’ was. the re- ply. “But I am even more hurt when you say kind things which I: know you do not mean.”’ “Then what I mean when I’m kind I also mean when I’m mean” Is that what you mean?’’ he queried. “Don't speak to me! Don’t you ever speak to me!” she exclaimed. “But I deserve to be insulted and twitted. A woman makes a great mistake in ever endeavoring to be sweet and patient. No, don’t say a word! I deserve what I got!” But it wasn't Mr. Jarr’s intention to tease her any further, and he smiled his most placating wmile and pulled the indignant lady back on the arm of his chair. “Resume former posish,” he said with kind authority. ‘“‘Now what is it you want?’’ “T don't want anything except for you to be kind to me. But you never are,"’ she persisted. “Kindness must be proved by ac- tions,” said Mr. Jarr. “I got a check from the boss for some extra work. Here it fs. Is it enough for a new hat andl a pannier dress?” But Mrs. Jarr was not to be sineane in this manner.

MILLER WILLGET {77 ANOTHER CHANCE aeatentatbadiediaties cen ee Young First Baseman Is Turned Over to Lowell Club With a String Attached. a a Let a Pa peny oe Breed By CLARENCE F. LLOYD. Ed Miller, the juvenile first baseman, + turned over to the Lowell:(New England League) clnb’ by Manager Wallace, is ‘to return next spring for another trial. In the young Pennsylvanian the Browns’ } manager ‘believes he has the makings 5 of a great young ballplayer. That’s the nm he was passed along to Jimmy ray with a string attachment. Wallace wasn't keen for letting Miller go out to the minors this season, but Eddie isn’t ready to jump in and play with the Browns yet. First, he is too inexperienced. Three other reasons are George Stovall, bom Tennant and Joe ‘Kutina. But Wallace had to cut his squad and Miller was sacrificed. filer has had no professional experi- . but he hes proved that he is a natural fielder. He startled even old- timers like Wallace, George Stovall and Monte Cross by his cleverness in play- ing the first cushion.

“Come Back” With Dixon Kansas City Man Is Outboxed, Outgeneraled and Outhit by “Brooklyn Tommy” Interesting Bout.

By HARRY S. SHARPE. Referee for St. Leuis A. C, and the Post-Dispatch Boxing Authority, “Brooklyn Tommy” Sullivan outboxed, eutgeneraled and outhit Tommy Dixon of Kansas City in their eight-round bout before the Irish-American Athletic Club Mgnday night and was the winner. This match furnished an interesting exhibi- tion of good boxing and there was ac- tion in every round, though the first two were rather tame compared with what followed, except the fourth round, which was a little slow. The first two rounds were devoted to feeling each other out and in the few exchanges that took place the hit- ting was light, neither of the boxers caring to risk defeat by tearing in re- gardless of consequences. But they set- tled down to business in the third round and there was some hard jobbing by both, indicated at the end by a tiny flow of blood from Sullivan’s nose. while one of Dixon’s eyes had puffed a little. Beginning with the fifth round the work of both was faster and the hitting harder, with Sullivan showing to advan- take by using a left jab and right cross that he neatly laid to Dixon’s jaw a number of times without a return. Dixon’s Judgment Is Poor, The Kansas City boy was busy, but his judgment of distance was not so good and many of his right swings land- ed on Sullivan’s shoulder or behind it. He managed to land a left swing now and then to Sullivan’s stomach, but they seemed to lack force and did but little damage. When Dixon tried to jab he would usually be met by a simflar blow or receive a hard right cross. Sullivan not only showed himself to be the harder hitter, but he had more speed and science. His footwork, too, was better and his judgment of distance best. Dixon was aggressive, and came to his man fn a fashion that won him many friends, and it was largely due to his willingness that the bout fur- nished entertainment of a high order. The engagement was fairly and clean- ly boxed, though both had to be warned a few times for hitting while holding, and for hitting low, but these infrac- tions of the rules did not result seri- ously, and were not deliberate violations but caused by over-anxiety. Both Bexers Clinch Often. There was more ciincning | at times than seemed necessary, and this was particularly true of the last round, but there was not enough to mar the con- test or detract from it as an exhibition of scientific boxing. The finishing round saw both men try- ing hard, with Sullivan directing his blows with force and precision... Dixon seemed to realize in this round that his case was desperate, and fought hard, but his efforts were cleverly met by Sullivan. While in none of the rounds was there anything approaching a knockout, both the boys showed some signs of battle at the end, but no serious damage was done, and they finished strong enough to have continued. Sullivan showed to better advantage than he did in his recent bout with Oliver Kirk and is rapidly getting back to his old-time __ stride. He acknowledged the opportunity afforded him to ‘“‘come back’ by entering the ring in first-clags condi- tion, and his eehibition must have beer.

WHAT SHARPE SAYS OF I.-A. A. C. BOUTS é¢ - ROOKLYN TOMMY” SUL- LIVAN vs. Tommy Dixon, 8 rounds at 126 pounds— Sullivan the winner on points. Charles ‘‘Sailor’’ Jerabek vs. Jim Howard, 6 rounds at 145 pounds —Jerabek the winner; stopped in third round to avoid knockout. Eddie Stafford vs. Jim Kennedy, 6 rounds at 112 pounds—Stafford the winner on points. Jack Pezolt: vs. Ad Fisher, 6 rounds at catch weights—Pezolt the winner on points.

a revelation to many who had thought 1*=m about done for. Should he’ continue his training and improvement it ie probable he will yet be seen in some matches of more than ordi- nary importance, Jerabek Wins in Third. Charles “Sailor” Jerabek and Jim Howard entered the ring for the semi- final, scheduled for six rounds, but the bout was stopped in the third when Howard was helpless to defend himself. While this match lasted it was very ex- citing, replete with clever boxing and hard hitting. In the first round both men were on the verge of being knocked out. and at one time both went down together from straight right counters that landed at the same instant. When they arose Howard was the stronger of the two, and almost finished Jerabek before the round closed. Jerabek’s ability to recuperate in the minute's rest that followed was a tribute to his splendid condition and strength, and he was able to hold his own in a round that was characterized by hard slugging. In the third round the men were bat- tling upon even terms, when suddenly Jerabek succeeded in landing hard right and left swings to the jaws of his op- ponent and the latter went down. _ In- stead of taking advantage of the full count, Howard struggled to his feet, but Was unable to gather his strength and the = was stopped, with Jerabek the winn Stafford Wing From Kenney. Eddie Stafford won from Jim Kenney aft- er boxing six rounds of a match that was greatly marred by what seemed to be an inordinate desire on the part of Kenney to clinch whenever he could and hold on until made to let go. Kenney did more butting than boxing and frequently ducked so low that he would find himself wedged between the legs of his op- ponent. It was a poor bout. but Kenney was responsible for that. Jack Pezolt in Front. Ad Fischer was outpointed for six rounds by Jack Pezolt. and this match was devoid of much interest. Fischer was mostiy§ to blame, because he rarely led without follow- ing it immediately with clinching that re- sembled a bear hug. While the arena was comfortably filled. it was not overcrowded, and there were seats for all, which, it was announced, will be a rule of the club hereafter. Batting Nelson arrived at the clubhouse about 10 o’clock and, after being introduced from the ring, made a speech in which he paid a glowing tribute to Tommy Sullivan, who, he said, was his friend and he hoped to see him win. The Battler’s remarks were met with generous applause and he then took his seat just behind Sullivan’s corner and offered advice during the progress of the bout and seemed delighted at the close. |

4 By Leased Wtre From the New York Burean ef the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, April 9.—The Evening Post, in its copyrighted financial re- view tgday, says: “Having been brought to a tempo- rary halt by the extensive liquidation of yesterday; the sto. k market opened today in a hesitating mood, and the most active stocks at once declined half @ point or more.
