SUCKED A LINER FROM HER BERTH Starting From Southampton Titanic Nearly Caused Disaster. the giant Titanic’s maiden and a disaster was narrowly This is voyage, averted the day she sailed from South- ampton, Wednesday last. It was sim- jlar to that which befell her sister ship, the Olympic. Capt. E. J. Smith was commander of the Olympic at that time, and he is in charges of the Titanic. The ‘Titanic, with about 1300 passen- gers aboard, 350 of whom are in the first cabin, was leaving her pier when there Was a sound of a mountain battery be- ing discharged. There was a rush of passengers to the port rail to see what was the trouble. It then developed that as she passed out into the stream, the 45,000-ton steam- ship had sucked the water between her- self and the quay to such extent that 700 hawsers with which the American liner, New York, Was moored to the pier had snapped like threads. The New York began drifting helpless- ly, stern first, toward the Titanic, which seemed to act like © magnet. Slowly the New York bore down on‘the Titanic, which reversed her engines. In a few minutes her headway was stopped and

she began to move slowly astern. The ’ |

tugs Neptune and Vulcan sped to the helpless American liner, caught her with hawsers bow and stern and towed her back to her berth. The tugs timely ar- rival and quick work probably prevented a bad smash between the two liners. The tradition of the sea that a com- mander’s career is practically ended when his vessel meets with a serious mishap seems to have been set at naught by the presence of Capt, Smith in com- mand of the Titanic.

Among the St. Louis passengers known to have been on the Titanic was a party consisting of Mrs. Edward Robert, her daughter, Miss Georgette Madill, and her niece, Miss Elizabeth W. Allen, all of 4140 Lindell boulevard. No word had been received at the Robert home since a cable message reached there ten days ago saying the party intended to sajl on the Titanic. Mrs. Robert formerly was the wife of Judge George A. Madill. Her sec- ond husband, Edward 8 Robert, an attorney, died several months ago. His wife was in Europe. Miss Georgette A. Madill, is one of St. Louis’ richest helresses. She is 16 years old. By an order of court a year ago she was to have a “pin money” an. nual allowance of $7800 to pay for her clothing and education until she became 18 years old, Judge Madill was for several) years president of the Union Trust Co., since merged with the St. Louis Trust Co.

NO ALARM, SAYS LINER OFFICIAL NEW YORK, April 15.—Vice-Presi- Cont Franklin of the White Star Line, said he had received a brief wireless aispatch from the Olympic saying she had talxed by wireless with the Titanic at 4:24 o'clock this morning. The ‘mes- fage gave no further information. This message shows conclusively that the Titanic was still afloat six hours after the reported accident. An hour later Franklin authorized the following statement: ‘No alarm for Titanic’s passengers.” Franklin said that while no direct message from the Titanic had been re- ceived at the office, the officials were rerfectly satisfied that there was no couse for alarm. They do not regard the cessation of the ship’s wireless messages as denoting anything serious, as this might have been caused by at- reospheric disturbances or other causes. The Titanic ts well able to withstand aimost any exterior damage and could | keep afloat almost indetinitely after be- [ing struck. “The Titanic is now in latitude) 41.46 rorth and longitude 50.14 west,” | said Franklin. “She is being approached from the west by the Olympic of the White Star Line which should be along- side by 8 p. m. today. The Baltic of the same line which was east of the Titanic on its way to Europe, has turn- ed back and probably will be along- side by 4 p. m. The Virginian of the Allan line, eastward bound, is reported af rapidly approaching and should be or the spot by 10 o’clock this morning “The Olympic has just been reported as having been in direct communication by wireless with the Titanic.’’ Franklin was most emphatic in his sesurances regarding the safety of the passengers and the steamer. He said he had computed the time mentioned in the foregoing statement by Atlantic time, which is one hour ahead of East- ern time.

(The Day in Congress| | WORLD'S BIGGEST. SHIP CAN CARRY 3000 PASSENGER Titanic Is 88214 Feet Long and Interior Resembles a Huge Hotel.

GOLF LINKS ON BOARD Elevators and Theater and Swim- ming Pools in Luxurious Equipment.

The Titanic and her sister ship, the Olympic, of the White Star Line, are the largest ships afloat in the world, being 100 feet longer than their next rival. These sea monsters are at the same time floating mansions of lux- ury, each capable of holding a town- ful of people. They are 882% feet long, 92 feet in the beam and 94 feet with 45,000 tons register and 66,000 tons displacement. With officers and crew numbering 860, the Titanic igs capable of carry- ing 3000 to 3500 passengers—cabin and steerage. She was built to be the last word in size, speed, power and sea luxury, and it would take a pow- erful imagination to conceive the magnificence and detail for comfort and luxury and pastime on the great ship. Its interior more closely resembles a large hotel with heavy balustraded wide stairways, elevators running up and down for nine stories; its great saloons and restaurants, its minia- ture theater, squash and tennis courts, swimming pools and Turkish bathrooms; its great smoking room, card reoms and _ ~beautiful music rooms, and even on the top of its 12 decks a miniature golf links, Can Live as in Homes. Two private suites with their own pri- vate promenades wherein passengers can live as luxuriously at sea as in their homes, illustrate some of the novelties. These suites are only designed for one or two persons, with accommodations for their servants, and the price asked for them for a single-trip voyage is $4350. Without the porch, single suites like these are sold for $2300. The Titanic was launched at Belfast last May; that is to say, her huge hulk was launched, but that on': half com- pleted the work of construction, to say nothing of the mammoth task of deco- ration. The Titanic ]} ad nine decks of solidly constructed steel. The hull is divided into 30 water-tight compartments, the Goors of which can be simultaneously closed by the operation of a lever from the bridge. She is of the triple-screw type. The two wing screws are driven by reciprocating engines, the central one by turbines. Her speed is 21 knots an hour. in depth, Rivets Weigh 270 Tons. Some idea of the immensity of the work involved in the construction of such a leviathan as the Titanic may be gained by a few statistics. The weight of the 500,000 rivets in the ship’s double bottom alone is 270 tons; the heaviest plate weighs four and a half tons and is 36 feet long. The rudder weighs 100 tons, The largest beam used weighs four tons and meagures 92 feet. Capt. Smith, her commander, the admiral of the White Star fleet, was in command of her sister ship, the Olympic, when she made her maiden voyage to New York, and also when she_ collided with the British cruiser Hawke in the Solent last September,

Titanic 700 Miles From Nearest Land NEW YORK, April 15. 4E position of the Titanic as T indicated by her last wire- less, 50:14 west longitude and 41:4 morth latitude, is almost due east from Boston, approximately due south from St. Johns, N. F. The estimated distance of New York from the accident is 1200 miles. Sable Island is the nearest land, about 700 miles to the northwest of the place the crash occurred. The nearest port is Halifax, about 900 miles to the northwest.

NOTED PASSENGERS ON THE TITANIC AND CAPTAIN OF SHIP ON MAIDEN VOYAGE |

WILLIAM 1 STEAD.

NEW YORK, April 15.—The newspaper offices were besieged early today by in- quiry from hundreds or persons shocked by the fragmentary newspaper dis- patches seen at the breakfast tables, but in the early morning hours there was nothing vital to add to the alarming reports from Cape Race. Something further was expected every moment, but there was nothing at hand to relieve the anxiety shown in every quarter. Vice-President P. A. 8. Franklin of the International Merchant Marine, the highest official of the White Star Line uere, was one of the first to be notified of the reported disaster, but it was only through the Associated Press that he earned of it and for hours thereafter ne ould only. express his astonishment «et ‘he news and his doubt that such a large nd thoroughly pro. ted ship as the 'itanie could be in danger at sea. Absence of News Reassuring. Upon heating the first reports he spoke reas sonaet saying that only eight or te ours before the White Star officials ad received a wireless giving the liner’s position. He was sure if she had met with any accident he would have heard from her promptly. ‘We are absolutely satisfied that even if she was in collision with an iceberg, she is in no danger,” he said. “With her numerous watertight compartments she is absolutely unsinkable and it makes no difference what she Hit. The réport should net cause any serious anx- lety.”’ When the more serious news . came from Cape Race a little later, Franklin qualified his statement with the hope that the reports were.not true. He doubt- ed that they could be correct. The White Starline offices had only the newspaper reports of the disaster. They felt assured that whatever the sit- uation, there waa this reassuring feature, that at least three. liners had reported themselves in touch witfi the Titanic, that all of them weré steaming toward hér and that an unusually large number of other ships were within the zone of wireless communication.

MANY SHIPS IN ' WIRELESS RANGE NEW YORK, April 15.—According to the Marconi communication chart for April a number of ships were within wireless call when the Titanic ran into the iceberg. Presuming that the ves- sels are running on schedule time, the Hamburg-American Line ship Amerika should have been directly in the Titan- ic’s path. The Amerika sailed from New York last Thursday. When the accident occurred, the Marcon! officials say, she was about 1000 miles off Am- brosé Channel. The Olympic, which sailed from here last Saturday, was due to pass the Titanic this afternoon at 3 o'clock. With the Titanic disabled, the Olympic will reach her at 8 o'clock this evening. The Baltic, which departed last Thurs- day, should have been south of the Ti- tanic, but within hailing distance. The Minnewaska, an Atlantic transport steamer, was 650 miles off Sable Island early this morning, or about 300 miles from the Titanic. The Columbia, an Anchor Line boat, is G0 miles out. Her longitude is 67 west and latitude 4 north, She is with- incall. The Canadian, an English boat, salied from Boston last Saturday for LAverpool. She is supposed to be in the neighborhood of the Titanic. Pring Friedrich Withelm is today about 1300 miles out, having sailed from here last Thursday. She is about 800 mfles away from the Titanic. The situation created by the Titanic disaster and the use of the wireless in calling for rescue is almost identical with that encountered when the White Star liner Republic was rammed by the Fierida of Lioyd's Italiana line off Nan- Island, Jan. 23, 190. Operator Jack Binns was the that memorable disaster, stick-

templated sailing on the Titanic said they expected to arrive in St. Louis this week. Mrs. Robert and Miss Madill pres Spent their winters at the Bon Air Hotel in Augusta, Ga., a resort’ fre- quented by many persons of wealth in- cluding John D. Rockefeller. It was estimated that the income from the es- tate of which Miss Georgette Madill was the principal was not less than $60,- 000 a year. The first list of the passengers of the Titanic contained the name of T. Papin Jr. It was first thought probable this was Theophile Papin Jr. of St. Louis, a member of the real estate firm of Papin & Tontrup of 6% Chestnut street. At Papin's home, 3765 Lindell boule- vard, Monday morning, a Post-Dispatch reporter was told that Papin was on hi: way from Europe. But members of the family said they had been informed by Papin on the eve of his return that he would likely come on the Baltic. The revised list of passengers given out la- ter by the steaniship company, did not contain Papin’s naine. Stiverthorne in. List, Another St. Louisan who sailed on the Titanic is Spencer V. Silverthorne, buyer for B. Nugent & Bro. Dry Goods o. e went to Europe about six weeks ago on business for his firm. His home is at 5844 Von Versen avenue. In conversa- tion with a Post-Dispatch reporter over the telephone Monday, a young woman at that address stated that Silverthorne is on the Titanic and Was expected back in St. Louls Tuesday or Wednesday. “Mrs. Bilverthorne did not accompany him,’’ she said. “We have just heard of the accident to the Titanic but feel assured that if it was very serious we should have had some word before now.” The revised list of passengers given out by the White Star Line showed that Charles M. Hays, wife and daugh- ter, were on board. Hays, a former 8t. Louisan, is president of the Grand Trunk Railroad. His wife ts a sister of Norris B. Grege of 8t. Louis. Both Hays and his wife are former St. Louisans. Mrs. Hays was born and reared here, Gregg said he had received no word from his sister, but he knew she was on board the Titanic, as she was return- ing from abroad with her husband and daughter.

She meant to make a short visit to St. Louis Miss Georgette Madill recently was op- erated on for appendicitis. This delayed the party’s return to America, TITANIC LOSS AT LEAST $750,000 LONDON, April 144.—A member of a prominent firm of underwriters, when informed of the disaster to the Titanic,

said: “Hven if the Titanic reaches port Fer owners will have to calculate On a loas of at least $750,000; but if she becomes a total loss it will be an extremely seri- ous matter. The vessel cost $10,000,000 to build. Her hull is valued for insurance purposes ct $5,000,000. There are all sorts of miscel- laneous matters to be taken into ac. count for disbursements and for passace money and freights paid in advance, as well as for stores, baggage and other things. I do not suppose the owners sre eovered to the extent of more than $7,250,000 or at the utmost $7,500,000,"" GOLD IN MASSACHUSETTS BOSTON.

They separated Sept. 11, 1911. Mrs. Siebras charged her husband got drunk once a week, worked only seven or eight months in the year and used bad language. During the time he did not work, she said, she had to work to keep the family. ‘‘Mere idleness or failure to support,’ said Judge Muench, in deying the de- cree, “is not a statutory reason for di- | eamimeevine frequently befalls the la- all walks of life and many rs) rtunity for remunerative soit fe eatin: The wife imbued with the proper sense of her duty will gladly lend her efforts to tide over such periods of distress by helpful work of her own. “Tt may well be that the defendant's conduct was far from ideal, but if courts were justified in dissolving all but ideal marriages, the present appalling propor- tion of divorce would be many times ae denied all his wife’s charges and said that when he did not work, it was because he could not find em- ployment.

The Chief announced he was going to spend a vacation on the Pacific Coast. Dame Rumor lost no time and soon the report that he was contemplating matrimony was circulated. The Chief was dipping into his morning's mall when reporters asked him about the allegation. “Like the guilty trust magnates, T take advantage of the privilege to say I don’t remember,” said the Chief, with @ smile. “Then, you afe guilty,” said the fre- porters, thinking they had caught the sleuth off guard.

Takes Up Three Counts, “T will take up first counts 10, ll and 12, dealing with the preferred stock of the Lewis Publishing Co. It is charged that in December, 1908, Mr. Lewis de- vised a scheme to defraud the holders of that stock by fraudulent representa- tions.”’ “Out of the sale of the preferred stocks of the Lewis Publishing Co., it was charged,”’ Judge Amidon contin- ued, “that Lewis had used the postof- fice to an extensive degree. The evi- dence showed that he caused letters to be mailed in this connection. If you believe the evidence, and it is,nmo. con- troverted, only in one instance, ther vou must conclude that he did procure the sales by fraudulent representations as charged. Takes Up the “Ads.” “Whatever representations were made were made by Lewis himself. He wvvte the advertisements and caused them to be published. If you doubt this, all yeu have to do is to look at the ad- vertisements.” “The project began Dec. 3, 1908 In his advertisements he said that any person who would purchase his stocks and have them registered in his own name would be entitled to a 15 per cent dividend on a certain date. He advertised this stock had earned a dividend which was to be declared by the directors out of the profits of the company. On these repre- sentations, the evidence shows, the stock

| was subscribed for and sold. “On Dec. 2% Lewis wrote and pub- ‘lished an article saying he had re- eived a great many letters from per- ‘sons who wished to get the stock and ‘owing to the short time before the clos- ‘ing of the books, Dec. 20, had been un- able to get in in time. He said then he would set the date up to Feb. 1, 1909. “Those were the representations about this stock. If you have any doubt, you ought to have the advertisements read to you. You ought to be guided by the evidence as you remember it. ‘Were these representations false or true? You can determine that by look- ing at the business of the Lewis Pub- lishing Co. What does it show? The evidence shows that in the year 1968 the company was not in a profitabls state so it could pay a dividend. The company had borrowed, on 10-month notes, nearly $100,000. That the company had used hundreds of thousands of dol- iars in paying losses. Lost 830,000 a Month. “The treasurer of the company told you that the current losses in this year amounted to $3000 a month. Then you heard Mr. Radert, the Government ex- _pert bookkeeper, testify that the books lshowed a business loss, just as the itreasurer had said. “At the time this stock was offered — Te Oe | Quotes Representations,

Th‘s money was received, according to testi- mony, on the representation that the stock had earned a dividend. This money Was used to pay losses. “Is this credible evidence? Lewis has gone on the stand. Did he make any explanation as to the sale of this stock or as to the conditions of the business? Did he say he was disappointed, and couldn’t pay? “There is nothing to show that when the ‘stock advertisements commenced or when the Looks on the sale of it were claged that there was any unforeseen event to prevent payment. The business went right along. Now are you ready to take the evidence and the law, as I stated it, and follow it willingly, to be guided to a verdict of guilty or not guilty—or not guilty or guilty? If you are, you are ready to decide according to the evidence. “It is possible you may say, ‘I believe if nothing had happened to Lewis nd although he made these represetations falsely, if he had not been interfered with he would have been able to pay it all back.” But you are not permitted to indulge in such argument as that. If you believe he advertised the sale of stock on fraudulent representations, as I outlined, and he got the money for it, and although you should believe he would have repaid it if he had not been interfered with, that is no justification for a verdict of not guilty. “The law forbade him to get that money by false representations and if he did so get it, I care not what you believe or what he believed as to wheth- er he could take the money and make ii profitable for the investors. “The embezzler says: ‘I can take this money and use it; I am confident I shall be successful. I can use it and return it with no wrong or injury to anyone.’ But the law does not palliate any such wrong doing or reasoning.” “IT request you to take up each c count

and consider it along the lines I have mapped out,” said Judge Amidon. “Bring to this consideration minds as willing to find a verdict of guilty as to find a verdict of not guilty. If any count in the charges fails to satisfy, then do not return a verdict of guilty on that count. Come to the facts with unclouded minds. No juror must sur- render his convictions merely for the sake of reaching a verdict, but each jur- or should be candid with his fellow- juror, and be prepared to say: ‘Maybe his view is right and mine is wrong. ag Eager for Verdict. “I have done all in my power to aid you in arriving at a just verdict,” the Judge continued, “the responsibility now rests upon you, and you were never uwn- der greater responsibility. From that re- sponsibility there is only one honest door of escape, and that is the door of its faithful performance—the door to which you are invited by a fair and just con- sideration of the evidence in this case.”’ As soon as Judge Amidon concluded former Judge Barclay, chief counsel for Lewis, was on his feet. ‘“‘We wish to except to the supplemen- tary instructions,’ said Barclay, “par- ticularly to the Court’s comments on the evidence. We wish to except to your statement of alleged facts without stat- ing that these are the statements of the Government and without giving the de- fense’s answers to those statements. Told Not to Argue. “As to the debentures’’—— Here Judge Amidon stopped the attor- ney. ‘“‘Make your exceptions,” Judge Amid- on said, “and do not argue in the pres- ence of the jury.’”’ Barclay also excepted to the Court’s instructions to the jury as to its own conduct or frame of mind. He asked Judge Amidon to instrfct the jury it should believe beyond a reasonable doubt that Lewis intended to defraud investors when he put out his advertise- ments, and to also instruct the jurors that their frame of mind was their own, and that the instructions and comments of the Court were merely advisory and not binding and that the jurors were free to act as they chose. Judge Amidon declined to give the in- structions, as requested by Barclay. The jury was then escorted back to the Fed- eral grand jury room to continue its de- liberations. Judge Amidon announced an indefinite recess to await the final decison of the jury. ° District Attorney-Houts said-after the supplemental instructions were given if the jury disagreed he would try the case again as soon as Possible.

By Associated Press. TALLULAH, La., April 15.—As far as the eye can reach, north, east and west from the highest point Tallulah, nothing but water can be seen. The Mississippi's flood tide, escaped from a break in the levee near Alsatia, is sweeping through town with the speed of a mill race. Many buildings are afloat. Scores of persons, driven from the roofs of their dwellings in Tallulah now are homeless. A mile and a half north of here, along the Iron Mountain railroad, the water is up to the cross arms on the tele- graph poles. Thousands of cattle, sheep and hogs will perish before the floods cease. Thousands of acres of land, much of it already planted, are ruined. Before the water came Sunday morn- ing there was a boat of some kind on in nearly every front porch or & raft in the yard. Now the streets are full of boats and rafts carrying household goods to places of safety or getting peo- ple out of their overflowed houses. Nine-tenths of the people in the over- flowed districts are negroes. At best they never have had more than the bare necessities of life. Now with’ their means of Ifvelihood cut off and the clos- ing down of mills here and at other places, want menaces them. There are thousands of these unfortunate people and it is an impossibility for the people of Tallulah and the Fifth Levee District to care for all of them. Unless the ap- peals of Congressman Ransdell and others to the National Government are met promptly, the refugees will suffer for food and shelter. ———————— “=| SNOW IS 3 FEET DEEP

TIME FOR AN END UF VILLIFICATION MRINLEY ASSERTS Taft Director Decries Opposi- tion for Its Open Denuncia- tion of President. CALLS ISSUES BEFOGGED Declares That Local Politics in States Is Overshadowing Na- tional Issues. By Associated Press. WASHINGTON, April_14—The blind- ing flash in Pennsylvafiia stunned the Taft managers and sfirprised Roose- velt’s The latter did not expect the charge of oratory which their candidate set off in the Keystone State would shake down more than 2% district dele- gates. They now claim 55 and control of the State convention, which would give the 12 delegates at large toeRoose- velt, a total of 67 out of 76. Representative McKinley, director of the National Taft Bureau, brought the oxygen tanks in the form of a statement that Taft would have 21 district dele- gates and that it was time to call a nalt on the rough rider’s campaign of ‘‘ma- licious misrepresentation, vilification and assault’’ against the President of the United States. Since this statement was issued after McKinley visited the White House Washington is waiting to see whether President Taft's patient avoidance of personalities has at last been exhaust- ed and whether he will personally give his predecessor and one-time friendly sponsor, blow for blow. His Statement in Part. Here is McKinley's statement in part: “The outcome of thé Pennsylvania primaries is plainly indicative of the fact that national issues are playing only @ small part in some states fh the campaign for the Republican nomination ‘for President ‘“Instead of. constructive. statesman- ship being put forth in an effort to solve the problems before the country and as a bid for votes on the ground of merit, a nation-wide campaign of willful and malicious misrepresentation, vilification and assault on the Presi- dent of the United States has been sub- stituted. Such a campaign, amounting in fact to a conspiracy, not only fo humiliate the President personally, but to commit the Republican party to rank Socialism, has not Only been counte- nanced, but conducted by former Presi- dent Roosevelt. “The time has arrived to call a halt on such proceedings. ‘President Taft, always mindful of the decencies of human conduct, be- lieving that friendship ig a sacred thing and that, like truth, it should be maintained even at a personal sacri- fice, and also believing that the Amer- ican people expect the occupant of the highest office in the gift of the na- tion, a8 well as those who have former- ly oceupied it, to try to respect the dignity of that office, has, during the course of this campaign, patiently sub mitted without reply to misrepresenta tion, villification and insult. Restraint Thrown to Winds. “The result is that his opponent has thrown all restraint to the winds. Sen- ator Joseph M. Dixon, the national cam- paign manager of former President Roosevelt, has been permitted, without a rebuke from his candidate, to Insult the President of the United States. He has not only been permitted to charge the President with being ‘a receiver of stolen goods’ without protest, but for- rier President Roosevelt has repeated the charge on the stump. “Those states which have yet to elect delegates to the Republican national convention might just as well realize now that the republic as well as the Republican party has been placed in jeopardy by the issues raised py Theo- dore Roosevelt. They must realize that the unwritten law of the republic, that no man shall be President three times, is an insurmountable obstacle to the success of any party in any national election in this country. They must realize that the proposal of the recall of judges and of judicial decisions is not only unrepublican, but rank social- ism. “The President is in this fight to stay. He will be the nominee of the Republican Convention at Chicago. In this conncetion it must not be forgotten that he was nominated four years ago without the votes of the states of II- linois, Pennsylvania, Indiana, New York or Wisconsin.” Calls Repuadiation Complete. ‘The avalanche victory for Col. Roose- velt/ in Pennsylvania spoke the final word and made the repudiation of the Taft candidacy complete,” it was stated from Roosevelt headquarters. “When the complete returns are re- sey Governor will have the solid dele- gation of 76 votes,’’ it was stated at Woodrow Wilson headquarters. “Speaker Clark's friends expected lit- tle and made practically no fight in Pennsylvania. The latest advices as- sure at least 17 votes,” was a state- ment made at Champ Clark’s head- quarters. The statement from Roosevelt head- quarters, while long, refers briefly to the Pennsylvania election. The quota- tion given is practically all on that subject. The remainder is devoted to a review of all thé contests to date, setting out the claims of the Roosevelt managers. Representative James R. Mann of II- linois, Republican floor leader of the House, who has thus far not announced in favor of either Taft or Roosevelt. but whose sympathies have been with Taft, said: ‘The result in Pennsylvania certainly looks as if there Was &@ very strong sen- timent among the people in favor of Mr. Roosevel*s nomination.” “Do you think, ashe Roosevelt boom-

lers claim, that &

ceived it is probable that the New Jer-. lowe. Taft in the convention?” he was asked. “No, no,” was Mann's wouldn't say that. I couldn’t tell what is going to happen. But there is one thing that I feel sure of and that is that there will be one of the liveliest fights for the Republican nomination this year that we have ever seen in this country. The race is getting closer.”’ Here is a Democratic view of the Re- publican race by Representative Hull of T -ness«-, a member of the Ways and feans Committee: ‘The whole question resolves reply. “l itsel* linto the problem of keeping the South- ern delegates in line, so far as Mr. Taft is concerned.

CALLS ISSUES BEFOGGED Declares That Local Politics in States Is Overshadowing Na- tional Issues. By Associated Press. WASHINGTON, April 14.—The blin4d- ing flash in Pennsylvania stunned the Taft managers and sfirprised Roose- velt’s The latter did not expect the charge of oratory which their candidate set off in the Keystone State would shake down more than 2% district dele- gates. They now claim 55 and control of the State convention, which would give the 12 delegates at large to.sRoose- velt, a total of 67 out of 76. Representative McKinley, director of the National Taft Bureau, brought the oxygen tanks in the form of a statement that Taft would have 21 district dele- gates and that it was time to call a halt on the rough rider’s campaign of ‘‘ma- licious misrepresentation, vilification and assault’’ against the President of the United States. Since this statement was issued after McKinley visited the White House Washington is waiting to see whether President Taft's patient avoidance of personalities has at last been exhaust- ed and whether he will personally give his predecessor and one-time friendly sponsor, blow for blow. His Statement in Part. Here is McKinley’s statement in part: “The outcome of the Pennsylvania primaries is plainly indicative of the fact that national issues are playing only a small part in some states fh the campaign for the Republican nomination 'for President. ‘Instead of constructive -- statesman- ship being put forth in an effort to solve the problems before the country and as a bid for votes on the ground of merit, a nation-wide campaign of willful and malicious misrepresentation, vilification and assault on the Presi- dent of the United States has been sub- stituted. Such a campaign, amounting in fact to a conspiracy, not only fo humiliate the President personally, but to commit the Republican party to rank Socialism, has not Only been counte- nanced, but conducted by former Presi- dent Roosevelt. “The time has arrived to call a halt on such proceedings. “President Taft, always mindful of the decencies of human conduct, be- lieving that friendship ig ai sacred thing and that, like truth, it should be maintained even at a personal sacri- fice, and also believing that the Amer- ican people expect the occupant of the highest office in the gift of the na- tion, a8 Well as those who have former- ly occupied it, to try to respect the { | Mr. Taft in the convention?’ he was asked. “No, no,” was Mann's wouldn't say that. I couldn't tell what is going to happen. But there is one thing that I feel sure of and that is that there will be one of the liveliest fights for the Republican nomination this year that we have ever seen in this country. The race is getting closer.’’ Here is a Democratic view of the Re- publican race by Representative Hull of T .ness‘-, a member of the Ways and feans Committee: “The whole question resolves itsel* into the problem of keeping the South- ern delegates in line, so far as Mr. Taft is concerned. Can he do it? It is hara to say. They have everyone got their trunks packed now and are ready to flon to the man who they think can win ‘We must not forget that most of the reply. “I din, — = —— ciate ae - mse et ees a a —m Southern delegates were officeholders for seven years under Mr. Roosevelt, who turned them over to Mr. Taft. They may be expected to have some fondness left for Mr. Roosevelt. The statement from the Wilson head- quarters claims for Gov. Wilson a ma- jority of the Democratic delegates thus far selected, and says, in part: “With the sweeping victory scored in the Pennsylvania primaries yesterday, Gov. Woodrow Wilson took the lead in the preconvention race for the Demo- cratic nomination. Gov. Wilson’s strength in the Baltimore convention ix now represented by 142 votes. The delegates’ column in favor of the New Jersey Executive will continue to re- cive large accessions.” At Speaker Clark's headquarters a statement was issued saying, in part: “No one knows now how the Penn- Sylvania delegation to the Baltimore convention stands. There is nothing in the Pennsylvania law or in any State Committee order that imposes any ob- ligation upon any delegate to vote for any particular presidential candidate. In Illinois the names of the presiden- tial candidates were on the ballot and the vote was directly preferential; but the names of presidential candidates were not on the Pennsylvania primary ballots. “Speaker Clark’s friends expected lit- tle, and made practically no fight in Pennsylvania beyond laying by corre- spondence the Speaker’s cause before a portion of the Pennsylvania elector- ate. We believe Clark will secure the votes of delegates in eight or ten dis- tricts in Pennsylvania.’ The latest ad- vices from the Speaker's friends as- | eee » ee ~o 3 ne wt gee ord at least 19 votaeab terday s primaries.” MERIT IN MEDICINE.

Restraint Thrown to Winds. “The result is that his opponent has thrown all restraint to the winds. Sen- ator Joseph M. Dixon, the national cam- paign manager of former President Roosevelt, has been permitted, without a rebuke from his candidate, to insult the President of the United States. He has not only been permitted to charge the President with being ‘a receiver of stolen goods’ without protest, but for- rier President Roosevelt has repeated the charge on the stump. ‘Those states which have yet to elect delegates to the Republican national convention might just as well realize now that the republic as well as the Republican party has been placed in jeopardy by the issues raised py Theo- dore Roosevelt. They must realize that the unwritten law of the republic, that no man shall be President three times, is an insurmountable obstacle to the success of any party in any national election in this country. They must realize that the proposal of the recall of judges and of judicial decisions is not only unrepublican, but rank social- ism. } “The President is in this fight to stay. He will be the nominee of the Republican Convention at Chicago. In this conncetion it must not be forgotten that he was nominated four years ago without the votes of the states of Il- linois, Pennsylvania, Indiana, New York or Wisconsin.’’ Calls Repudiation Complete. ‘‘The avalanche victory for Col. Roose- velt/ in Pennsylvania spoke the final word and made the repudiation of the Taft candidacy complete,” it was stated from Roosevelt headquarters. “When the complete returns are re- ceived it is probable that the New Jer- sey Governor will have the solid dele- gation of 76 votes,” it was stated at Woodrow Wilson headquarters. “Speaker Clark's friends expected lit- tle and made practically no fight in Pennsylvania. The latest advices as- sure at least 17 votes,” was a state- ment made at Champ Clark’s head- quarters. The statement from Roosevelt head- quarters, while long, refers briefly to the Pennsylvania election. The quota- tion given is practically all on that subject. The remainder is devoted to a review of all thé contests to date, setting out the claims of the Roosevelt managers. Representative James R. Mann of Il- linois, Republican floor leader of the House, who has thus far not announced in favor of either Taft or Roosevelt. but whose sympathies have been with Taft, said: “The result in Pennsylvania certainly looks as if there Was @ very strong sen- timent among the people in favor of Mr. RoosevelS, nomination.” “Do you think, as the Roosevelt boom- Say—I think Sis is going to get I saw her going in Rhodes-Burford’s the other day.

A pimply face will not embarrass you much longer if you get a package uf Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets. The pimples will vanish after you have taken the tablets a few nights. Nothing ever cleansed the blood, the bowels and the liver like Olive Tab- lets. Olive Tablets are the only success- ful substitute for calomel; there’s never any sickness or pain after tak- ing them. Olive Tablets do all that calomel does and just as effectively, but their action is gentle and safe instead of severe and irritating. No one who takes Olive Tablets is ever cursed with ‘‘a dark brown taste,’’ a bad breath, a dull, listless, ‘‘no good’’ feeling, constipation, tor- pid liver, bad disposition or pimply face. Olive Tablets are made of pure veg- etable compounds mixed with olive oil. Dr. Edwards spent years among pa- tients afflicted with liver and bowel complaints, and Olive Tablets are the immensely effective result. Try them. Take one nightly for a week. Then look at yourself in the glass and see how you feel. 10c and 25c per box. The Olive Tablet Company of Co lumbus, O. Dr. F. M. Edwards, President.

By Associated Press. CHICAGO, April 15.—There was a delay today in calling the convention and a for a time, threat- ened to end in violence, finally resulted in two conventions, one of the factions Known as the Heoarst-Harrison forces, and the other the followers of Roger C.»Sullivan, National Democratic Com- mitteeman. The first victory, if it could be called went to the Heart-Harrison faction. After the doors of the Seventh Regiment Armory had _ been broken down, at orders from County Judge @wnes, the “H-H" delegates filed into fhe armory while State troops made no tezistance. Until the arrival of Judge Owens, the two factions among the delegates faced tach other outside the building, each Srmed with a court order and backed by men-at-arms. Admittance Is Refused. The Hearst-Harrison forces depended on an order from Judge Owens directing that Election Commissioner Czarnecki, & Republican, preside as temporary chairman. When" Czarnecki reached the Armory, however, backed by 250 relicemen and 100 deputy sheriffs, to oren the convention, he was refused escmittance by Capt. Octagon of the Seventh Regiment. Capt. Octagon explained that. as cus- tedian of State property in the build- ing, he would permit no one to enter the building except those authorized by John McGillon, Jessee of the building, county county chairman of the Democratic ® ; nvention. sii “ A oe 7 —. e -~ s 4 y PP nd foe " be 3 Sig ee oS Moy ge ey tes X eof, Ata x x ee ad 1 7 — hkad oe aa xt pe sis . ? hy v ‘f ‘ — 4 - Ww Ae eo .s » a. tpg sKinley, restraining the police, bs, Police Are Reatrained., The Harrison-Hearst delegates, at a nearby hall, selected temporary officers and marched to the Armory and await- ed developments outside.

By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch, NEW YORK, 15.—Miss Jennie Crocker, mistress of a fortune es‘*i- mated at $10,000,000, will be married to Malcolm Douglas Whitman, former lawn tennis champion of America. Miss Crocker’s father was Col. Frederick Crocker, a California pioneer, who came out of the days of '49 with great wealth. Miss Crocker was one of three chil- dren and received a third of her father’s millions on her eighteenth birthday in February, 1995. Mr. Whitman is a son of Mr. and Mrs. William Whitman of Brookline, Mass. He married Miss Jeanette McCook, a daughter of John J. Mectoox, in April, 1907, and Miss Crocker was a bridemaid. Mrs. Whit- man died Dec. 17, 1909, a few days after the birth of a son. Miss Crocker, whose elder sister Mary, is Mrs. Burton Harris, !s as well known in Newport, New York and the American colonies abroad as in San Francisco. Her prowess as an athlete, and her beauty and vivacity are quali- fications which have brought her into friendly rivalry with Miss Eleanor Sears. The two young women startled conservative folk in April, 199, when they appeared on the polo grounds of the Burlingame Club, near San Fran- cisco, in natty riding breeches and cut- awey coats. Miss Crocker was at Coronado, Cal.. a month ago and with Miss Sears and Lady Herbert planned to take part in the polo pony races in masculine garb, but Miss Sears was the only one of the trio thus attired when the races were run. At the Templeton Crockers’ Orienta] ball Jan. 26 in the St. Francis Hotel, in San Francisco, Miss Crocker was ar- rayed as Gulnare, the princess of the sea. To set off her emeralds she wore a bodice of orange and a sash of nile green. She had trousers of dark green chiffon over soft green silk. At a MardigGras ball in San Fran- cisco in 1909 Miss Crocker lost a pear! necklace valued at $50,000. Whitman is a lawyer of independent means. The date for the wedding has not been announced. ww - April

MAN IN RUNAWAY BALLOON COSSONAY, Switzerland, April 15.— The Swiss Aero Club's balloon St. Goth- ard is somewhere above the _ clouds, with a man aboard who is totally ig- norant of handling the air craft. The balloon was returning from a flight with a pilot and three passen- gers. In an attempt to land, the basket was blown against a rock by a wind gust and the pilot and two of the pas- sengers were thrown out. Thus light- ened, the balloon shot up to a height of 15,000 feet and whirled away with the third passenger, a man who had just made his first flight. MAN | BREAKS DOWN A Strasburg, Pa. man. Martin B. Burghert, has just had a remark- able experience. Some months ago he noticed his health failing and in spite of all he could do, soon found himself in that condition which everyone dreads— “general break- down,” In a letter he says: “It seemed as if my health was ruined and I never would be strong again. Va- rious other medicines did me no good but I began to take Vinol and it has done me a wonderful amount of good. I am ‘now as well as I ever was, have gained twelve pounds, my appetite is good, I sleep soundly, and ‘feel like a new man. All credit is due to Vinol.” He is only one of many thousands who have been built up to health by our delicious cod liver and iron preparation without oil. All who are broken in health, run-down, weak aNd nervous, should profit by his experience and regain their health by the use of Vinol.

4 MRS. BAKEWELL IN COURT, BUT DAVIS TRIAL TS PUT OVER Richest Somtin Who Was Sued by Water Cure Instructor, Ap- pears With Husband.

NEW ATTORNEY IN CASE

Woman Accused of Practicing Without License Will Be Ar- raigned Friday. Mrs. Paul Bakewell Jr., who, as Miss Mary Fullerton, was said to be the richest women in St. Louis, appeared in Judge Falkenhainer’s court Mon- day as a witness for the Board of Health in its prosecution of Miss Susan IL. Davis, water cure instructor, on charges of practicing medicine without a license. At the request of Joseph G. Will!lams, attorney for Miss Davis, the case was eontinued until April 19. Williams said he had been connected with the case cnly since Saturday and was not well enough informed to go to trial. Mrs. Bakewell, who was accompanied by her husband, wore a modish tailored suit of gray material and a straw hat trimmed in blue. She carried an inhaler, which she used frequently as if suffer- ing from a cold in the head. Mrs. Bakewell formerly was a patient of Miss Davis and recently was sued by her for $280 alleged to be due for serv- ices. Miss Davis wore-a. suit of. purplish gray and a hat trimmed in colors to match the suit. When asked why she had been in hiding, prior to her arrest last Thursday, she said: “I don’t call it hiding. I was merely in a retreat, my object being to remain in seclusion until I could consult Attorney Charles P. Johnson, who was out of town.’’ John- son was defending Mrs. Annie Hunning at Hillsboro, Mo., charged with com- plicity with Joe Seidl in the killing of her husbané, Martin Hunning. Dr. Willis Hall, the Bakewell family physician, was in court when the case against Miss Davis was called. Miss Davis has returned to the Planters Hotel, where she occupied a suite and practiced her system of water instruc- tion before going into seclusiqn. ‘She vigorously denied she had promised, fol- lowing her first prosecution and acquit- tal a few months ago, to stop giving her system of instruction in St. Louis, saying that Theodoric R. Bland, who was her attorney then, was in no posi- tion to make such a promise and that neither he nor she made such a promise. ia ad — Daughters of Revolution Convene WASHINGTON, April 15.—The twenty- first annual convention of the Daugh- ters of the American Revolution opened a week's session here today.

nema. ve) FINDS A CURE FOR PERSPIRING FEE! OL A After Spending Over $100 on Various Remedies, Resinol Proved Efficient. Are you troubled with perspiring feet or annoying perspiration else- where? If so, just try this simple treatment: Wash the affected part twice a day with cool water and Resino] Soap, followed by a light application of Resinol Ointment. Here are a few words of proof from one who tried Resinol for this and other uses: “I began the use of Resinol Oint- ment about ten years ago for piles, results satisfactory; finally used it for all local troubles, and lastly for perspiring feet, and it was more than satisfactory, and that after I had spent over a hundred dollars for dif- ferent remedies and fees without re- sults. Since then I have recommend- ed Resinol Ointment to dozeng of people, and it has never failed to cure. D. L. Killian, Memphis, Tenn.” And to suggest still further the wide application of Resinol, let us quote this letter from Mrs. M. Lans- downe, Paulsboro, N. J.: My baby had a crust come on his skin which covered his whole body. My doctor told me to use Resinol Ointment. I did and it cured him. His skin is now as smooth as velvet. I shall always keep a jar on hand. My

Resinol Chemical Co., | TAFTSENDS ARMS T0 THE AMERICANS AT GUADALAJARA Action Follows Ultimatum to Federal Government to Amply Protect Foreigners. SERVE NOTICE ON OROZCO Rebel Who Made Threats Is Given to Understand He Must Not Start Trouble

By Associated Press WASHINGTON, April 15.—In response to an appeal] from the American Consul at Guadalajara, .Mexico, President Taft has authorized the exportation of 150 rifles and 50,000 rounds of ammunition for arming the citizens of the United States in that district. This is the second step by this Gov- ernment to permit Americans in Mexico i9 receive munitions of war for self protection, Americans in Mexico City aiready having been similarly armed. The President also gave his consent to the exportation of 400 rifles, 120,000 car- tridges and a large mass of miscel- luneous gun parts for the Mexican Gov- ernment, Se WASHINGTON, April 15.—Warning was issued by the United States to the Mexican Government as well as to Gen. Pascual Orozco, chief of the revolution- ary forces, that it “expects and must demand that American life and property within the republic of Mexico be justly and adequately protected, and that this Government must hold Mexico and the Mexican people responsible for all wan- ton or illegal acts sacrificing or endan- gering American life or damaging Amer- ican property or interests.”’ The attitude of the United States as expressed to the Federal and rebel au- thorities is that any maltreatment of American citizens ‘‘will be deeply re- sented by the American Government and people and must be fully answered for by the Mexican people.” Acting Secretary Huntington I. Wilson of the State Department who today is- sued special instructions to Ambassador Henry Lane Wilson at Mexico City and Marion Letcher, American Consul at Chihuahua, authorized the statement that intervention was not contemplated by the United States. Ambassador Wilson was ordered to communicate at once the views of the United States to the Mexican Minister for Foreign Affairs, and a copy of his instructions was likewise sent to Ma- rion Letcher, American Consul in Ch- huahua, with special representations addressed to Gen. Orozco. Orozco recently refused to recognize Letcher as the American consular rep- resentative because the United States withheld recognition of the rebel cause. The representations to Orozco accuse him of “practical murder’ of Thomas Fountain, an American gunner enlisted with the Federals, but summarily exe- cuted last week when taken prisoner by the insurrectos, Though declining to justify participa- tion of Americans on either side, the United States expressly stipulates that American combatants when taken pris- oner must be given humane treatment, in accordance with the international rules of war. The correspondence made public is ad- mittedly the strongest demand the United States is known to have made upon Mexico for respectful treatment of Americans, as well as other foreign- ers, and declares that a continuation of illegal acts is tending ‘‘to difficulties and obligations which it Is to the interests of all true Mexican patriots, as it is the desire of the United States, to avoid.”’ Besides a copy of the foregoing cor- respondence to be shown to Gen. Orozco, the instructions to the American consul at Chihuahua, Marion Letcher, include the following: “You will immediately informally, and unofficially present this matter to Or- ozco, according to above instructions, and you will at the same time point out that being an American consul, charged with the protection of American citizens and interests in Mexico and holding an exequarteur from the Mexican Govern- ment, as representing the Mexican peo- ple you are instructed by your Gov- ernment informally to say that you must continue to exercise your functions and to make representations whenever occasion demands, (Signed) “HUNTINGTON WILSON.”

Barber Calls for Pair Left in Saloon After Burglary. Hugo Muspatf, a barber living at 2900 Gamble street, was arrested Monday when he called at a saloon at 1401 South Vandeventer avenue and asked for a pair of treusers which had been left there a few minutes after a burglary at the tallor shop of Anton Bebecci, 1437 South Vandeventer avenue. Arthur H. Dorlek, who resides above the shop, identified Muspatf as a man he saw run into the saloon. Muspatf told the police a stranger had given the trousers to him.

SALOON MEN PROTEST AGAINST LID CLUBS More Than Six - Hundred Hear Speeches Condemning Sun- day Closing. A mass meeting of members of the St. Louis Liquor Dealers’ Benevolent Association was held Sunday afternoon at St. Louis Turner Hall, 1506 Choutean avenue, to protest against lid clubs ané@& the Sunday lid. More than 600 mem- bers attended the meeting and heard speeches by Edwin W. Lee, excise com- missioner, Howard Sidener, prosecut- ing attorney, and John J. Lahiv, mem- ber of the House of Delegates. Lee praised the saloon keepers for obeying the Sunday law though they believe it unjust. Lahiv blamed Gov. Hadley for not giving the police more active assistance in trying to close the lid clubs. Sidener said the lid clubs were offsprings of the Sunday closing law. Sidener said the men who are running lidclubs ought to be taken before the grand jury and compelled to tell all they know of conditions in them. He said the officials should co-operate with the saloon keepers in their fight against the clubs. P. H. Nolan, national organizer of the Liquor Dealers’ Association, said the brewers had refused to co-operate With the saloon keepers against the lid clubs.

The result of the Pennsylvania Republican pri- maries is a body blow to Mr. Taft’s campaign and to the old stand-pat party machine. It is admit- ted by his opponents that Col. Roosevelt did not have an effective organization and the vote rep- resented an overwhelming sentiment among the Republican voters. With the vote of the two greatest solid Repub- lican states in the Union against him, the diffi- culty of aolding Mr. Taft’s machine-made dele- gates loyal is greatly increased. The situation foreshadows’ interesting developments at the Chicago convention. Regardless of the nomina- tion, a complete reorganization of the Republican party with the old machine leaders on the out- side seems certain. And that is a consummation devoutly to be wished by all the people. But the one significant, conspicuous result, apart from the proof of Mr. Taft’s unpopularity, .

With the very first of the meager but startling advices on the collision between the great steam- ship Titanic and an iceberg, ground for optimism was given the world. It seemed incredible that'- so many compart- ments could be injured as to sink the vessel. News that passengers had been placed in lifeboats was interpreted as a measure of prudence rather than as an indication that the ship had been hopelessly shattered and along with this news came the reassuring statement that the “weather is calm and clear.” The apotheosis of the inventors of wireless telegraphy is reached in this accident. Includ- ing the crew of 800, more than 2200 persons were aboard the vessel. The accfdent occurred in mid- ocean. At the moment the nearest craft that might render aid were distant by many hours’ sail. Possibilities of the most appalling were presented in the question whether the Titanic, had seaworthy boats adequate for so many. At the date of the last advices the Carpathia was taking-in the Titanic’s passengers and the safety of all was practically assured. The ship was grievously injured, but was still afloat. Without wireless telegraphy one of the greatest marine disasters in history could hardly have been averted.

The bridge proper is practically completed, but it has no approaches, . The approaches cannot be built and the bridge put into commission until the Municipal As- sembly decides the question of the location of the East Side railroad approach, The Joint Committee of the Municipal Assembly which was charged with the duty of locating the East Side approach was appointed nearly four months ago. It made no report and held no public hearing. The committee ceased to exist with the close of the Assembly’s term. The city is paying $350 a day for interest on the Free Bridge bond issue. This outlay will con- tinue, without return, until the bridge is com- pleted.

— —_— - — a LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE Workers Want Real Protection. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. An editorial in a morning paper gives a hard rap at the Industrial Workers of the World citing them as “a gang of insurrectos.” Now what are the I. W. O. W. guilty of? They are an organiza- tion of men upholding the principles of the Ameri- can workman's part of the protective tariff law which was passed to protect the manufacturer in the sale of his goods and so they can pay American protective wages as against foreign cheap goods and wages. The protective tariff law only protects the manufacturer by law and leaves it to the will of the manufacturer whether he shall pay American protective wages or in- duce cheap foreign laborers to come to this country in such numbers that they can hire them for practically the wages they were working for in their own country. Have the manufacturers lived up to protecting the American laboring man? No, they have taken advantage of the part of the protective tariff which leaves it to their honesty to pay American living wages. The protective tariff law does not prohibit free immigration of foreigners but does prohibit a free sale of the same goods they. worked on in their own country. It gives the manufacturers an advantage in two ways: they have ne foreign competition when they sell their goods; the protective tariff stops that, but when they hire help to manufacture these goods they can draw upon the labor markets of the whole world. If the Industrial Workers of the World are a “pang of insurrectos” because they are trying to uphold the workmen’s part of the protective tar- iff then the organizations of citizens in the river bottoms who are building levees to keep off the floods of the mighty rivers to protect their homes are also gangs of insurrectos. WILLIAM B. HARDING.

AS TO CENTENARIANS, From Harper’s Weekly. German statistics show that Europe has at present more than 7000 people who have passed .#/ years. Bulgaria heads the list with 3888 centenarians; Roumania and Servia follow with 1074 and 673, respectively. Among the other nations comes Spain with 410. France, notwithstanding its larger population, has but 213 centenari- ans. In Italy there are only 197, in Austria-Hungary 113, in England 92, in Russia 8, in Germany 76, in Norway 23, in Sweden 10, in Belgium 56, and in Denmark 2. A scientist in commenting upon these figures says that statistics from America and Australia are not complete, but that indications are that South America, Canada and Australia make a much! better showing in propor- tion to the population than the United States, where the nervous strain to ‘get rich quick” tends considerably to short- en life.

_ = = OUR ECONOMICAL CONGRESS. President Taft has talked economy ever since he went into the White House. Various of our Democratic leaders are prone to dilate upon the valuable service of Congress in the same line. Yet, when one glances through the appropriations for public buildings, there does not seem to be much for the taxpayer to congratulate himself upon in the line of economy. For instance, here are a few appropriations for Federal buildings in towns of less than 3500 population: TOWN, Population. Eureka, Utah 3416 St. George, Utah Sundance, Wyo. Newcastle,

Across the table the title of the pamphiet he held stood out dis- tinctly. i could not refrain from a de- risive whistle.

And William it was from that day. “Wien he got his first month's pay Williain sent a ‘etter off to Phoenix, and in a few days we got notice of a box of express at Cave Creek. For a man to send for a box by express on payday is usually an interesting coinci- cence, and we were a little uncertaié about it. William was away for a week on the north range, and hadn't left any orders about the box. Finally one of the boys drove down after it. He came back disappointed. The box didn't have any giass neck aticking out of the top as usual. It was square all around, and marked ‘books.’ “William put his books up on the shelf in the cook shack and invited us aito help ourselves. There wasn't any ' great rush after we had read over the + titles. Most of them had names that @ man would have to get explained to him so he weuld know what he was peading about. One or two was in some dago language. There was one book, by that man Emerson, that I had read a good bit ef. The only trouble with him is you have to keep thinking hard all the time to keep up with him. “One day he roped a fresh 3-year-old ‘buckskin and rode him down to Cave Creek and asked the boss for a job on He got it, and the Mex- ican went back on the chuck wagon. “IT rode range with William for iwo ears. I sort of took a shine to him, and guess the reason was because he never had much to say. All the time you could see William was studying everybody he met up with. He got to be the best ‘mixer’ on the ranch in spite of his epiet ways. He would ride 20 miles to a sch yol- caane ‘iterary’ or preaching, and he ad a way of getting acquainted and ne er making himself conspicuous. “One spring, February it was, we were camping on the North Fork, ewer up. The weather hadn't begun to brea yet, and there was still little skiffs of snow occasionally, and the nights were stinging cold.

But, somehow, it seemed to me William was_preaching a little more than a funeral sermon. “After the service William beckoned to me, and we rode away by ourselves. ‘Bud,’ he says, looking me square in the eye, ‘ten vears ago I started to re- deem the world. or to do my share of it—and I failed—failed miserably, utterly. T was sent from one church to another —always a poorer one.’ He paused as if trying to comprehend the bitterness of the memory. ‘Do vou suppose the Lord wants a man back who was too proud to fail, and hadn't the spunk to fight; who ran away like a miserable craven— and—who swore before his God he would never preach again.’ “T knew it wasn’t advice he wanted so much as sympathetic listening. We rode along for two hours, him doing most of the talking, his ideas milling around like a herd on a stampede. When we came back in the evening he got out his Testament and read that parable about the Prodigal Son. ‘Bud,’ he says, if words can brand a man, I reckon ve got that story seared into my soul.’ I tried to head him off, knowing it wasn't good for his peace of mind to run on that way, but he kept ‘it up. ‘Bud,’ he goes on, ‘when that little, mis- erable nester came to me with his trouble vesterday, something seemed to zo out of me—since then I’ve known it didn’t matter about me. I don't want the fatted calf. I’ve lived on the husks of humility these three vears—they are good enough for me—but do you sup- pose He wants me back— And then he would thresh it out all over again. “When we turned in for the night he was still thoughtful and troubled. Along toward morning I felt a hand on my shoulder and heard William’s voice in my ear. “*Bud,’ he savs, his voice low and tense, ‘I have mv answer.’ “T am not naturally religious nor emo- tional mvself, and I guess I don’t just understand those things, but I will al- ways remember those words of Wil- Ham's.

Cleveland has been waiting for this visit of the Browns. That’s because George Stovall, the former manager and first baseman of the Naps, is now a member of the Browns. Stovall made a big hit with the fans here last season, when he succeeded Jim McGuire as manager and brought the team from its rut in seventh place to third position in the American League race. They have become reconciled to Harry Da- vis, Stovall’s successor, though the truth of the matter is that Stovall would have been received with open arms if he had remained manager of the Nap team. Manager Wallace will start Barney Pelty in the opening game here. Pelty in former years invariably exercised some hoodoo over the Nap batters and the Browns are hopeful that he will be able to fool them enough to win to- day’s game. Manager Davis’ announce- ment was that he didn’t now who would work for his team. It will hard- ly be ‘“‘Lefty’’ George, as he is just recovering from the sound thumping administered to him by the Tigers Sat- urday. George formed the price with which Messrs. Hedges and Wallace coaxed Stovall from Cleveland. The Browns bagged their second game from the White Sox yesterday, 4—1, be- cause George Baumgardner, the West Virginia speed demon, pitched a sen- sational game. Facing a crowd of al- most 30,000 howling, hostile fans, the kid from the mountains turned loose an assortment of smoke and curves that had the Sox batters standing on their heads. Then he was opposed to Ed Walsh, one of the greatest hurlers in the game, the man who won the opening battle of the season from the Browns. But the surroundings did not feaze Baumgardner. He was as cool as a cucumber and even in the sev- enth round when a pair of doubles scored the lone Sox run and facing a trio of Callahan’s best hitters, the sit- uation did not bother “Baummy.” Baumgardner’s game was a beauty. He allowed six hits, although the Sox deserved only four, the same number the Browns poled off Walsh. Baumgardner’s regret dur- ing and after the game was that he permit- ted Lord to single through his territory in the sixth round. He wag close to it and should oa m1 53,000 FANS PAY TO SEE ST.

ROGER WILL BE BACK IN HARNESS THURSDAY After being on the hospital list for a full week, Manager Bresnahan Monday announced his condition much improved. ‘I feel 100 per cent better this morning,’’ declared the Duke, ‘‘but I’m not in shape to play. That lay-off put me back where I started from. and I now will go out and get in condition again. However, I ought to be in shape in a couple of days.’’ Bresnahan vrobably will get back in har- ness Thureday, when the Cardinals open in Pittsburg.

So far, the stein has won out and the game has i been left to the guidance of such ama- teur knockers as have not been fortified by inspiration. ~ . * A TICKER SUBSTITUTE. UT a move is in prospect by which a compromise may be effected; and al- though the game may not new be witnessed simultaneously with the assimilation of suds. its progress may be noted from a safe posi- tion at the mahogany. The plan is: To es- tablish a ticker in each grand stand bar. Each play is to be reported in detail] even to strikes and balls, thus enabling the fan to properly criticise the umpire and batter, and to manage the game, as formerly. Thus the patron pays his dollar at the gate, takes a preferred position with right foot on the brass rail and left elbow on the mahog- any, a 3-10 liter receptacle of nectar in hig hand and awaits returns from the game which is in progress 50 feet away. It’s novel, Owgoost. Put it through. one way of sequestrating a nuisance. o . It’s WHAT ONE MAN MEANS, HOEVER tells you the Browns are the same old misfits, look him scornfully in the eye and pull the dope on him. Show him the spring series figures, In which George Stovall was getting warmed up to his work and displayed a fine line of hitting and field- ing. Then spring the facts of the first four games of the pennant race on him and bid him observe that Stovall has hit, and hit hard, in every game; has made but one bob- ble in the series; has been a splendid mark for the infield to aim at and has put ginger and ‘‘pep’’ into the defense such as # has never known before. With no other strength- ening the Browns would make an improved showing. . ° . NO SPRINGERS THERE. ACK JOHNSON would probably not take the slightest notice of the Cubs if he found them wandering loose. Spring chick- ens are few and far between on that or- ganization. And yet. even thie early and though los- ing, the veteran outfit shows signs of being anything but decrepit. If the Cub pitch- ers will stand up for Chance, his team is going to cut some ice in the running. Ont- side the pitching staff, the club is as for- midable as ever anfi better than last year, though not yet working cleanly. This boy, on a play in which Koney did not figure. Huggins, covering the bag. dropped a thrown ball. The misplay was credited to Koney by many. HITTING THE WRONG MAN. K ONEY wound up the day by making four singles, scoring a run. getting a bage on balls and otherwise deporting himegelf Hike a valuable asset. Put seven out of 10 per- sons went out of the park wielding a hammer on an imaginary first sacker. “That's what he gets for going into the billiard business,’’ remarked one facetious person. ‘‘The ivory is catching.’’ Koney has been of good service in the past and will render the same in the future. He is the most valuable first sacker in the League. But just for the present his first name is ‘‘Bone’’ with thousands. Can you beat it? * > ° LET THE “UMP” WARM UP, HERE’S a great injustice done the um- pire, as might have been noticed in the case of Indicatorman Johnstone, who went in ‘‘cold’’ Sunday and did himself an injustice. Every other branch of the serv- ice is permitted to warm up and get an eye on the ball. Instead of sending him in cold, why not let the umpires warm up by throw- ing six or eight misfakes over the plate? It might obviate the necessity of such wild- ness as Johnstone exhibited jn the game Sunday. * io * HEN Koney walked back to the bench; a biuecoat edged his way toward the water barre] so as to arrive about the same time. The presumption was that he wanted to be ready to stand by and repel boarders. in case Boss Bresnahan started to climb aboard the good ship Konetchy. Roger took it passively. He’s been in the game long enough to take the bitter with the sweet. a ee, | ae SALLEE’S RECORD HAS NARROW ESCAPE SUNDAY Harry Sallee added another chapter to a A unique record, which he has been working on for six years, by winning Sunday’s bout. Sal has the distinction of never having lost his first game. Fans will remember that he copped the inaugural spring series bout from the Browns: but thet didn’t count. Sal had to win Sunday to maintain the continu- ity of his record, so he went out and won. Last year Sal opened against the Cubs and went 11 rounds to a draw, 8&8.

Retter of New York by 3-5s, he is getting anxious about himself, as he realizes that his presence is needed in the Browns’ infield. Wallace has tried to get in the game several times this season. He has practiced at his old position before wames and during the Browns’ practice sessions at home. If a ball takes a true bound and Wallace Is able to get both hands on the ball, he is all right. But if the bulb comes to him on a nasty hop and strikes his fingers in- stead of the palm of his hand he isn’t able to hook on. His fingers are not strong as they were when he was playing reg- ularly and because they are requiring so much time to get their former strength, Wallace believes that the two blows dealt him last summer may have put an end to his playing career. He practiced at shortstop before yester- day’s game in Chicago, The Scot still causes ease and grace in which he fields his posi- tion. But now and then a batted or thrown ball would land on the fingers of his gloved hand and would skip. Coming over in the train from Chicago Wallace told the writer that he was worried because his hand wasn’t right. and that he planned to consult a specialist and probably have an X-ray pic- ture of the ailing digits made, either here in Cleveland or in &8t.

MONEY MARKET

Speculation in Grain, Cotton and Stocks Causes Good Demand for Funds.

By teased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, April 15.-The Evening Post, in its copyrizhted financial review today, says: “Probably most professional Wall looked for a break people, including the street contingent, of respectable dimen- sions on today's stock market, in re- sopnse to the Pennsylvania primaries. As a matter of fact, our stocks were very weak on the early London market, and they opened here with such declines as *% in Reading, % in St. Paul and Amalgamated Copper, % in Steel com- mon, and 1% in Union Pacific. “But these initial prices were most every instance the lowest: Ward movement was resumed under the curious and more or nificent leadership of such a American Can “Even the shares of the International Mercantile Marine, which were suffic- iently shaken by the Titanic disaster to start the preferred stock off at 20 as against 24 on Saturday, recovered with the rest, that stock touching 22% later in the day. “The market presented plain indica- tions, first of an ‘outside public,’ with a highly stimulated appetite, and next of a stubborn manipulation by strong Wall street interests. “The market's entire impassiveness to Mr. Roosevelt's second marked suc- cess at a primary State election, at- tracted natural comment, and the in- ferences varied. “There were those who argued that financial intersts still believed im- ossible the nomination of the favor- te of Illinois and Pennsylvania; there were others who argued that stock markets nowadays ahe slo wto worry over politics, and that thev never do so sevent months before election, and there were still others who began to wonder if Wall street was ont se- cretly in favor of Mr. Roosevelt after all. “This last mentioned type of rea- soners was in fact bound to come into view under the circumstances, for the two sufficient reasons, that Wall street likes to be on the winning side even if the next stage of the battle is in doubt, and that it does not like to read ‘bear arguments’ into current events when its own mood is bullish. ‘The actual sentiment on the matter, in responsible Wall street circles, has teen neither secret nor uncertain. Else- where than on the New York Stock Ex- change the spirit of speculation, which was manifest at last week's close, con- tinued to display itself. ‘London pushed up its favorite stocks: the Chicago wheat market was in great confusion, but the speculative activity continued in stocks. OETAILED REPORTS OF DAY'S WALL STREET TRANSACTIONS NEW YORK. Apri] 15.—-Acute weakness wes rhown by the stock market at today’s overing. The 4% per cent bonds of the In- ternational Mercantile Marine Co.’ declined 2 points with a fall of 4 points in the pre- ferred e#tock. presumably on account of the acec.dent to the Titanic There were losses of a point or more in the Harriman and Hill issues, Lehigh Valley. United States Steel, Utah and Anaconda Coppers, American Car and Foundry, American Locomotive, General Electric and other issues. The one exception to the market's weakness was Canadian Pa- cific. which rose more than a point. Before noon today all adverse consider- ations seemed to be forgotten and the stock market continued its forward march, with especial strength in the Standard issues, foremost among which was United States Steel. Numerous specialties participated in todav’s movements. including Sears-Roebuck, North American. American Linseed common and preferred and American Beet Sugar, which rose 1% to 5 points, while American Cans extended their gains of the first hour. Several other issues were up from 1 to 6 ointse.

Among these were Union Pacific and United States Steel. Activity in American Can was maintained during the noon hour, by which time the common had ined 3 points and the pre- rred 6%. n conservative quarters the rise of these stocks was viewecd with some misgiving. but these were hardly shared by the profeasional element, elsewhere made further upward progress, virtually the entire speculative group sep ing well above last Saturday's best.

There was a good demand at the decline, however, and the market during the middle of the morning became rather steadier with prices working up 4 or 5 points from the lowest on reports of heavy rains at Vicks- burg and the official forecast for showers in the Eastern belt. Reports from Vicksburg claiming hard rains there, this morning probably contrib- uted to the rally from the opening low point, but bull support was not aggressive on the advance and the market soon eased off again with active months selling about 15 to 19 points net lower late in the fore- noon. There was continued scattered real- izing on the decline and considerable local sellin but offerings were pretty well ab- sorbe "on a scale down and the market at midday, while unsettled, was 2 or 8 points up from the lowest. The market was steadier during the early afternoon on support from trade sources, cov- ering by recent sellers, and unfavorable re- ports from the central belt. The closing was irregular.

Prices on May wheat here at $1.10%, and in Chicago at $1.11%, scored new high rec- ords on the movement before the ad- vance was halted. After that the range was irregular to Ic higher. All futures surprised the trade by their persistent strength in face of the long advance, but crop damage reports, if anything, were more sensational than on Saturday. The corn market wae less conspicuous, and showed an uncertain price trend. Oats were firm. Pit traders now are inclined to look on the market as a dangerous one. They say there is no doubt that the damage reports have been magnified for specu- lative purposes, that the violent upturn: of nearly 10c in a week probably has overdiscounted any damage that could occur at this early season, and that the unusual run-in of bi shorts in the past two days has materially weakened the technical position of the market. They confidently claim, however, that the speculative position of wheat has been changed entirely; that with corn above 80c, and oats near 60c, wheat on an average crop will stay well above the dollar mark. Many well-posted o rotors assert that the milling trade _w now awaken to the fact that acaiaie supplies of wheat before May 31 will be very scant in em markets, with the exception of Chic and that the bull interests there real : ing this, in the face of a possible shori } winter crop, and likelihood of July ing an.old crop month, will find an a@b- normal demand for their holdings, and be in a position to dictate almost their own price for the cash article, especial- ly, th stocks almost exhausted in St. Louis, Kansas City and other South- western markets, where the cash price is well above the May future price in Chicago Reasoning along these lines, these tra- ders say May wheat in Chicago, before the option expires, will sell around $1.20 a bushel, regardless of any severe specu- lative setback that my Se owing to an immediate over-bought condition of the market. Broomhll’s Liverpool cable said: ‘The wheat market opened with shorts cov- ering on the strength in America, and private reports of winter damage and prices were %4d to %d higher, with the strength in the distant months. Follow- ing the opening there was realizing, and prices lost %d to %d on the quieter de- mand for cargoes, larger world’s ship- ments, favorable reports from India and increasing stocks in the United King- dom. A report received from our New York office states that many conserva- tive merchants claim that it is too ear- ly to determine the damage to winter wheat, and it is thought here that the market has been overbought, and this led to speculative realizing. “Corn opened unchanged, with a steady undertone, on firmness in Buenos Ayres. Later, there was a decline of %d to %d, with the pressure in the Plate grade on a private report from Argentine, that the yield is large And the quality good ”’ World's wheat an pepente in detail showed: This Wk.

_ Charlies B. Schaff, until recently vice- ’ president of the New York Central. lines West of Buffalo, arrived in St. Louis ® Monday morning to take up his duties '@8 president of the M.. K. & T. Rail- | road, to which posttion he was elected April 10. He said he would go immediately to the offices and in a few days depart for a fenera!l tour of inspection over the Katy lines Mrs. Schaff, who is in ' €hieaco, wil! join her husband and fhey Will make their home in 8st.

tinned as jold, about & feet 10 inches high and of a jovial Aisposition. He Wants ration. “Don’t give i eae the impres- sion that I am a new broom and am g0- ing to sweep clean,” he said to a Post- Dispatch reporter. “There will be no changes in the offices, so far as I know now. I am going to co-operate with the employes and we are all going to work together.”’ Schaff began his railway career as water boy for a section gang on the Pennsylvania lines at 50 centa a day. He graduated from this position as a freight brakeman at $4 a month. Then he be- came successively a freight fireman, driver of a switch engine, freight con- ductor, yardmaster, train master, super- intendent and general superintendent. In 1893 be was appointed assistant to the president of the Big Four Railroad, in 1894 assistant general manager and in 1895 general manager. He held this position until 1906, when the New York Central elevated him to the vice-presi- dency of its Western lines, including the Michigan Central, L. 8. & M. 8., and the c., c., Cc. & St. L., a total of 800 miles of railway. His Sons Farmers. Schaff has two sons, Howard E. and Frederick A, Sehaff, who are sugar cane farmers near Brownsville, Tex. ‘IT don’t know how they happened to select farming,’’ said Schaff, ‘‘unless it is because their mother was a farmer's daughter. I gave both of them technical educations, but I suppose they are hap-

pier on their farm than they would be ‘In a railroad office.” Although Schaff never has had charge ‘of a railroad west of St. Louis, he said he had great faith in the Southwest and expected to find a great field here. He said he also hoped the climate would be better for Mrs. Schaaf’s health than that of the iake region had been.

Wines and threw his body from 4 Burlington train near the Twelfth street viaduct, Sept. 6, 1910, Bert Gleason, known also as Charlies Abraham, was arrested by detectives Monday and is held at police headquarters. A hat which has been held as mute evidence will play an important part in determining whether Gleason shall be formally charged with crime. Watched Train Go By. This hat was found near Wines’ body after a bareheaded robber had gone through the train and forced passengers to give up jewelry and money. Detectives have been looking for Glea- son for several months. They ‘earned that a week befure the robbery he gave vp his position with the St. Louis Trans- fer Co. and that three days before the robbery he engaged a room at 726 South Broadway and spent most of his time sitting at a rear window and watching the Burlington trains go by. On the night of the robbery Gleason arrived at the rooming house greatly excited and bareheaded. He asked Mrs. Kate Conroy, the landlady, to lend him a hat. He cautioned Mrs. Conroy that if any- ene asked for him she was to say that he had gone to Chicago two days be- fore.

Two 16-year-old girls, who were be- ing jibed by their men companions be- cause they would not drink intoxicat- ing liquor, were taken from the John Ruskin Club, a lid club, at Broadway and Market street, by Sergt.

One of the men said he was connect- ed with the business department of the Never Homes Company which is ap- pearing at the Shubert Theater and at hig suggestion the girls at first said they were doing a “sister act’’ with the show and were at the Regent Hotel. After being questioned by Lieut. Single- ton they admitted their identity and sobbingly begged to be released. Turned Over to Parents. after hearing their story, Singleton ordered the girls turned over to the par- ents of one of them and withheld their names. He even instructed Sergt.

BOSTON, April 15.—Inoculated with “eas bacilli,’ of which he had been making a scientific study, Dr. Louis Nelson, an instructor in the Harvard Medical School, died at the Eliot Hos- pital, a martyr to his profession. He was 34 years old. For nearly a year Dr. Nelson had been making a special in- vestigation of a recently discovered “gas bacillus,”’ believed to generate gases in the human system. While engaged in this laboratory work two months ago he became inoculated and grew steadily worse. At the hos- pital it was found the bacilli had pro- duced intestinal inflammation too severe te admit of an operation.
