A. Hughes, Ifuntineton, W. Va., as follows: “Titanic proceeding to Halifax. Pasrengers probably land Wednes- day. All Safe. “THE WHITH STAR LINE.” you,”’ continued the Senator, ‘whether you know about the sending of that telegram, by whom it was author- ized and from whom it was sent?’ “I do not, sir,"’ said Franklin. ‘Since fi was mentioned at the Waldorf Satur- day we have had the entire passenger staff examined and we cannot find out.” Asked when he first knew that the Titanic had sanuok, Mr, Franklin said he first knew it at 6:27 p. m., Monday. “About 1:40 on Monday morning,” said Mr. Franklin, “a reporter telephoned ime that the Titanic had met with an ac- cident and was sinking. The informa- tion, he told me, had come by wireless from the steamship Virginian, which had been appealed to by the Titanic for aid.”’ Mr. Franklin said the White Star docks had no information, and he then appealed to the Associated Press, and there was read to him a dispatch from “ape Race advising of the accident. “IT asked the Associated Press,” said Mr. Franklin, ‘not to send out the dis- patch until we had more detailed in- formation in order to avoid causing un- necessary alarm. I was told, however, that the story already had been sent.” Speaking of the Hughes telegram, Franklin said: “We appreciate the fact that on that Monday there were many junior clerks at work, and there was great confusion. It is possible that some one who had no absolute information might have sent it. I wish yon would have the telegraph ‘“T ask Bal ee fe continued firm in his belief that tie gr ‘ Capt.

Communicating With Ships. “How did you ascertain the location of the Olympic, Baltic and others?” asked Senator Smith. “We worked them out on our charts. We had no direct communication from any of the ships. Our first endeavor to ‘ommunicate with our big ships was a April 15 at 3 o'clock a. m. as follows: message sent This message read “Haddock, Olympic: Make every en- deavor to communicate Titanic and ndvise position and time. Reply with- in the hour.’ : “That was the first message. lowed it with others rapidly. “Monday morning We fol- we were endeavor- ing to get information from Montreal and Cape Race. At 10:27 a. m. we got word from the Olympic announcing that at 9 a. m. she had been unable to raise the Titanic; was 310 miles south of her but would maintain efforts to communication with her. Between noon end 1 o’clock on April 15 the following message was received from the Olym- pic: Olympic. ‘arpathia in = at- Wireless From ‘Parisian reports (¢ tendance; picked up 20 boats, with pas- sengers, and Baltic returning. Position not given, HADDOCK, Olypmpic.’ ” The reassuring statements sent out by the line in the early hours of the dis- aster next were made the subject of in- quiry. “Tell the committee on what you based those statements,” directed Senator Smith. o “We based them on reports and ru- mors received at Cape Race by individ- uals and by the newspapers. They were rumors and we could not place our fin- ger on anything authentic.” Had you from the Carpathie at that time?’ “No, sir.”’ Asked About Ismay Early. Mr. Frankiin declared _ that Olympic was sent this message: “ ‘Haddock, Olympic: Rumored here Titanic Sunk, Cannot confirm here. txpect Virginian alongside.—Frank- lin.’ “At 2:40 p. m. we wired Haddock to endeavor by all means to ascer- tain the whereabouts of Mr. Ismay and to advise us as soon as possibiec,” continued Franklin. “We followed this dispatch with an- other to Haddock in which we urged: ‘Do you utmost to ascertain condition of Titanic. Advise us fully disposition Ti- tanic’s passengers and where they will be landed.’ " “At 6:20 or 6:30 Monday evening,”’ Mr. Franklin continued, “a message was re- ceived telling the fateful news that the Carpathia reached the Titanic and found nothing but boats and wreckage; that the Titanic had foundered at 2:20 a. m. in 41:16 north, 50:14 west: that the Carpathia picked up all the boats and had on board about 675 Titanic’s sur- vivors, passengers and crew. This mes- sage Was from Haddock also. Telephoned to Directors. “It was such @ terrible shock that it look me several moments to think what to do.

Newspaper Able to Present Its R of the Disaster. eaders the True Story KADING newspapers in every city a in the United States and in many capitals in Europe presented as their principal news feature on the Ti- tanie catastrophe the thrilling narra- tlve by Carlos F. Hurd, the Post-Dis- atch reporter who was aboard the Carpathbia that rescued the survivors and who gathered from them during the four days the ship was at sea on the return trip to New York, the first complete, detailed story of the great- est and most tragic marine disaster in history. The Associated Press asked for ana was eranted the privilege of serving its newspaper clients with the Hurd report. M Hiurd has been a member of the Post-Dispatch staff 14 years, and 1s noted in St. Louis for reliability ane accuracy. He was on the Carpathia with his wife en route to Europe for a ‘wo months’ tour. The Carpathia sailed again Friday for Mediterranean ports, with M:. and Mrs..Hurd among her passengers. They live at 5577 Cabanne avenue. Mr. Hurd’s story has been the subject of general comment in St. Louis. Here are some expressions about it given to the Post-Dispatch: WILLIAM F. SAUNDERS, secretary of the Business Men's League: The Post-Dispat« certainly save the peo- ple a great story of the Titanic disaster and too much cannot be said in praise of Carlos Hurd. who wrote the story. I also think the work of Mrs. Hurd was remarkable, inder the circums- stances The newspapers in general deserve credit for the manner in which they informed the public of the catar- trophe, but the Post-Dispatch, through good fortune, got the re al story first. I think it remarkable achievement. Keeps Her Face and tiands Smooth In Spite of “Rough Housework, Resinol, Her Secret.

“Scoop of a Century Above the Level of Mere Newspaper Story” ST. LOUIS, Mo., April 20, 1912. Editor of the Post-Dispatch: Your editorial cry of Thursday for a “plain, unvarnished tale” of the sinking of the Titanic has its answer from one of your own staff in the splendid art- icle by Carlos F. Hurd in Fri- day's issue. Written under cir- cumstances when the superla- tive would have been justified, the author’s admirable re- straint, his respect for the dig- nity of death and reverence for the Creator who controls the destinies of men, have raised the “scoop” of a century the level of a mere newspaper story. In thus giving to the world the information it craved he has won honor for himself, his paper and his home. Vouched for by the Bt. Post-Dispatch, this message has been to every quarter of the globe and has presented to millions of people a fitting example of American enterprise. above Leuis reliable telezgraphed * & \ : : 4 So : 3a ia a" ad ny ny cst SK : 2 4A : Pe ok eee a —-

ingly from beginning to end, so that the reader was not led away from the main to become. involved in a mass of matter. I read it through with the greatest interest. P. H. LENZ, Lenz-Haller Realty Co.: While it was merely a fortunate accident that Mr. Hurd happened to be on Carpathia, achievement in gathering and preparing the story of the Titanic disaster worthy of note. From all the mass of details with which story secondary the his is he must have been surrounded, he seemingly selected the vital facts and gave them clearly, concisely and in a sequence that did not confuse the read- er. It was a great story and was pre- sented in a manner befitting its im- portance. I read the entire account with interest and found in it what undoubt- edly are the most accurate reports of the sinking of the liner. It is a great achievement, of which Mr. Hurd and the Post-Dispatch should be proud. Le _ ee

Financiers. The wealthiest and nen in St. Louis—men who have made their money through seizing opportunities approved by their business judgment and _ foresight —advise you to buy in Hillcrest’s neighborhood. They advise not by mere words, but most forcibly by actions. By buying there themselves. ~ The property to the south of Hill- crest is owned by the De Mun heirs, George Warren Brown, Wm. K. Bixby, Julius S. Walsh and others. Some owners to the north are Robert S. Brookings, FE. Mallinck- rodt, Daniel Catlin, Thos. H. West and Wm. K. Bixby. To the west in Forest Ridge and Brentmor are the Von Brecht broth- ers, John TD. Davis, W. D. Simmons, George Tiffany and C. D. Gregg. These men know what they are doing. Their actions advise you to do the same. Rise in Values a Certainty Hillerest is in the direct line of the city’s most rapid growth. Its healthy elevation, commanding view and nearness to Forest Park make it ideal home property. Its aristocratic surroundings, ac- cessibility and strategic location make mathematically certain a rapid increase in values. And, remember, Hillcrest is to go at forced auction. You are going to buy it at auction prices. The whole history of the West End Real Estate has demonstrated that there are big profits in auction prices. Quick Auction Profits. For example, take Washington Heights, the property east of . ker road and north of the Wabash tracks. At auction a few years ago shrewdest value. The cheapest lots are worth $10 and the best around $100. In Washington Heights First Ad- dition, auctioned a little over a vear ago, lots on Delmar Avenue bought at $47 subsequently sold at $80 and are worth even more today. Similar profits were made on De Baliviere avenue at the same sale. Two years ago Forsyth Place, west of Washington University, was sold at auction. Two lots on Lindell Avenue, average inside property, were bought at $23 a foot and sold a few months later at $35.

Miss Kate HB. O'Neil, principal of Riddick School, Evans av- enue and Whittier street, appointed Robert Larmore of 4067 Washington av- enue to be captain of the squad at that school. To Organize Squads, Steps have already been taken at these schools to organize good squads and take up training without delay. Principal Walter H. Wilcox of the Jackson School, Madison and Hogan streets, is giving his personal attention to the organization of a squad in that school to take part in athletic games and contests planned to be had in con- nection with the annual picnic of the school, which will be held June 1, at Normandy. The athletic proposition has been pre- sented by the principal to the pupils of six of the rooms, and lists of those who will enter for the events are being made up. Preparing Extensive Program. Principal C. R. Stone of the Meramec School, Meramec street and Iowa ave- nue, is preparing an extensive program of athletic events for the picnic of that school, which will be held at Priester’s Park. He expects to make the athletic events a strong feature of the day’s diversions. In addition to the events provided for on the standard program for the Public School Athletic League, for which the Post-Dispatch will offer 27 medals, he will have other events for the entertainment of those who attend. Pregrams to Be Printed. For meets in which the entry lists are large, and the data are received in time, the Post-Dispatch will print spe- cial programs, containing the names of all the contestants entered in the vari- ous events, numbered to correspend to the number card worn by each con- testant. School athletes should keep in mind that in addition to the chance of win- ning one or more of the 27 medals which will be provided by the Post-Dispatch, they will be entitled, if they win the in- dividual school medals, to represent their schools at the great interschool meet and compete for the gold, silver and bronze medals in thé finals.

Mrs. Anna Freedman, one of three women injured in a street car collision at Jefferson avenue and Stoddard street Sunday afternoon, is at her home, 3130A Bell avenue, in a serious condition. Her skull was fractured. The other two women were hurt less severely. They are Mrs. Anna Otto of Dixon, Mo., guest of Mr. and Mrs. John Tolland, 2118 Mullanphy street, and Miss Ida Rothwell, 4304 John avenue. Mrs. Otto was thrown from her seat and bruised. One of Miss Rothwell’s ribs was fractured. The collision was between a south- bound Jefferson car and an eastbound Natural Bridge car. The motormen of both said there was a mistake in the signals at the crossing. Mrs. Freed- man was sitting with her husband, the Rev. Samuel Freedman, cantor of B’Nai Amoona Congregation. The husband, who was holding their 7-months-old baby, escaped injury, and kept the child from hurt.

FOUNDED OLD TIMES HERE Contest for Estate Between His Wife and Two Sons Attracted Attention. By Associated Press, WASHINGTON, April 22.—Stillson Hutchins, millionaire philanthropist and retired journalist, died at his home here today, after a long illness with paralysis. He was born in White Field, N. H., in Boston and later went to Iowa, where he had charge of papers in Des Moinés and Dubuque. Soon after the Civil War he estab- lished the St. Louis Times, Which he sold for what was regarded as a record price, when he came to this city to establish the Washington Post in 1877. Since Hutchins was forced by illness to relinquish control of his business af- fairs some months ago, a contest over the estate between his wife, Mrs. Rose Keeling Hutchins, and his two sons by a former marriage, Walter Stilson and Lee Hutchins, has attracted much at- tention. Sold Paper at Great Profit. Hutchins came to St. Louis at the close of the Civil War and established the St. Louis Times, a Democratic daily newspaper. In six years he built up this property to such an extent that it paid dividends and when he decided to take a year’s rest he sold the Times a> a large advance over whot he had paid for it. For several years he also owned the St. Louis Dispatch, an evening paper which he published jointly with the Times at Broadway and Chestnut street. After founding the Washington Post Hutchins became a national figure in the newspaper business. He was one of the first to see the probable value of tnechanical typesetting machines and is said to have made more than $1,000,- 600 as stockholder in the Mergenthaler lLynotype Co. : He purchased Governor’s Island in Lake Winnipiseogee, N. H., and built a $100,000 home there. In May, 1911, Hutchins’ wife, who was Miss Rose Keeling of Washington. instituted lunacy proceedings, alleging’ that her husband, through paralysis ond other disabilities, was unfitted to manage his affairs. Denied Increase in Allowance. A trustee was appointed to handle the estate. After vainly trying to in- Cuce the court to increase her allowance Mrs. Hutchins filed an ouster suit against the trustee. Mrs. Hutchins told the court that a millionaire’s wife could not live On less than $67 a day. She needed $300 a month for clothing, $242 for servants and $275 to maintain her automobile, she said. The court refused to increase Mrs. Hutchins’ monthly allowance of “pin money’’ from $1000 to $2500

“ACTOIDS” Act Actively. ‘‘ACTOIDS” For Billousness. PLANS READY FOR ILLCKES! AUCTION SALE It Will Be Held Saturday Under Auspices of Title Guaranty Trust Co.

Plans are complete for the Hillcrest auction to be held Saturday under the auspices of the Title Guaranty Trust Co. The property, according to A. R, Schollmeyer, owner, will be knocked down in the rough without reserve to the highest bidder. The purchaser must assume the cost of the grading and street improvements, the construc- tion of which is already under way. The deed, giving the control of the property to the Title Guaranty Trust Co., the financial agent of A. R. Scholl- meyer, was filed Saturday. Schollmeyer acquired the tract from the Buchanan-Maffit heirs about two months ago, but the purchase was too large for him. Rather than lose what he has put up he has decided to share hia investment with the public. Hillcrest is just west of the Forest Park Art Museum and is in what is known as the Washington University District. The highest portion of the tract is: higher than the top of the Bucking- ham Club Annex, according to Julius Pitzman, who subdivided it. ‘Schollmeyer has made special arrange- ments to provide for the crowds ex- pected. Automobiles will convey prospectors to and from the car line of the vicinity that do not run near the property. The mterest evidenced indicates that the lots will go at the first bidding.

But things went along pleasantly enough. “Although she dressed well, she con- fided to us that she was in financial troubles. She asked my husband to look out for some kind of employment for her when she returned to St. Louis to meet her husband. He promised, for her father’s sake, to do anything he could to help her along. “After we came back to St. Louis, we saw little or nothing more of her for some time. Twice, when she was slight- ly ill, she called my husband, who at- tended her at the Windemere: He spoke of both visits, merely remarking he had seen Mrs. Wall, and telling me she was not very sick. “Of course, I «n't know what may have led the man.

Then, probably, when you saw the long line of automobiles that wormed them- selves around the block and the stream. of eager and extraordinarily fashion-! able-looking people pouring: out of them and into the theater you were encour- aged to believe this must be just the Rreatest amusement attraction in town. But first you were halted by a sense| of mystery that pervaded the scene. There was no electric-lighted sign above the door and no posters on the bill- boards outside blazoned forth, as usual, the attraction within. Of course, your curiosity and desire to attend were stimulated by the prospect of a performance that could ignore ad- vertisement. So you walked inside. Here you became mystified, indeed. The box office was dark. You delved into your pocket for $1.50, or even the $2, you would venture on a show of such ap- parent drawing power, but your money, your perfectly good money, was ig- nored. Pish! you were made to under- stand. Also, tush! what do we care for money! Money would go about as far toward purchasing your entrance to thig theater as that of a millionaire ship- wrecked in the middle of the Atlantic would buy a seat at his own fireside. The atmosphere became as chilly as jf you were already in the region of ice- bergs. Money couldn’t have bought you a ticket, and as for passes, we!)], if you'd been @ newspaper person, you'd have been more dumfounded still at fina. ing at last a theatrical production with- out a press agent.

There were some real singers, some real dancers, real show girls and broilers, perfectly good prima donnas, ingenues, matinee heroes and cute chorus men, I only wish I could come as near being a real dramatic critic in de- scribing them. , The title of the piece was “The Dilemma,” and even excelled the best of comic operas in its absence of plot. GEORGE SIMMONS SELECTED WISELY. §$ author, producer, stager, man- A ager and performer of the lead- ing role, Mr. George Simmons’ talent ran in the direction of select- ing rather than inventing, for which he was duly praised. The best of the newest and some of the still better oldest stage successes were put on. The “Tell Me, Pretty Maiden,’ sextette was never more stun- ningly produced by the original ‘*Flora- dora’ showgirls than by Misses Adelaide Walker, Elizabeth Crunden, Ada Ran- dolph, Anna Wright Benoist, Louise Lionberger and Mrs. George Simmons. And it is safe to assume the ‘on bended knee’’ episode never received such an Ir- repressible ‘“‘hand’’ from its audience. Donald Brian was outdone by Clarence Hopkins King in his dance, if the ver- dict of his audience was worth any- thing at all. And Fritzi Scheff was cast into the shade by Anna Benoist’s ren- dition of her drummer-girl stunt.

Hit With Beer Bottle and Three Are Arrested. An argument over the sinking of the Titanic resulted in Martin Kistener, 32 years old, of 211 Miller street, going to the observation ward of the city hos- pital, where he was Monday, with a lacerated scalp. Kistener says he was in a bootblack stand at Broadway and Merchant street Sunday, when he became involved in the argument. Another man, he says, hit him on the head with a beer bottle, remarking he would “show him how the iceberg sank the Titanic.’’ August Besch, 219 Miller street: Ru- dolph Hicks, 802 Ann avenue and Ed- ward Walton, 1504 South Eleventh street, are held pending investigation.

Uncle Sam himself declines at last to pay the bridge arbitrary. i On motion of Victor Murdock of Nebraska, the House has struck from the Postoffice Appropria- tion bill the annual $50,000 item for carrying the mails across the Eads bridge. It seems strange that the Government should continue to pay this huge toll on the mails even after the Terminal Association had voluntarily abolished the arbitrary on other traffic originat- ing outside of the 100-mile circle. It must be remembered, however, that after a Cannon-ap- pointed committee had once put an item in a bill, it was difficult under the Cannon system to get it out. For years a $175,000 “fast mail’ sub- sidy for a train that ran more than a third of its route as a milk train with crossroads stops was fought unsuccessfully. Mr. Murdock has been fighting this $50,000 gift to the Terminal Association for years. The Cannon leaders, however, insisted that the gift should be made and Murdock was squelched on points of order. This year the wWemocratic House is making up the first appropriations since Cannonism was overthrown and the gift is cut eut. St. Louisans did not have to pay extra postage because of this toll on the mails. But on other things a toll is levied for which they do have to pay and pay heavily. How long before the ar- bitrary on traffic originating in the 100-mile cir- cle shal] be abolished? It is three months since Chairman Yoakum of the Frisco admitted its unjust and discriminatory character. St. Louis needs among its municipal officials a few men of Mr. Murdock’s deadly persistence and unalterable hostility to Terminal exactions. a, A Le > i.

The service had as yet developed few traditions of restraint on those employed in it. Files of newspapers issued at the beginning of hostilities record in- cessant complaints about the “telegraph liar.” Daily reports of a most preposterous nature, many of them fabricated by obscure operators or others at points remote from the pretended place of origin, were sent out over the system of wires.

If the strongest man, knowing himself right and feeling the highest obligations of duty, should undergo such a test THE EXTENDED REBER APPROACH. | Objections against the so-called Reber ap- proach to the free bridge are given full force in the mamorial to the city authorities adopted by the directors of the Associated Retailers of St. Louis. As planned, this approach comes to grade in the vicinity of Twentieth street, East St. Louis. At this point, it is charged, a strategic advantage would be enjoyed by Terminal Association roads, as compared with the new, independent roads the bridge is designed to promote. The Retailers’ suggestion for meeting the diffi- culty is simple, and will impress the unpreju- diced citizen who votes on the bond question again as practical, meritorious, reasonable. It is that the East Side approach shall follow the Reber route to Twentieth street and from there have a 1200-foot extension to some of that “‘neu- tral territory” we have been hearing so much about in interminable bridge discussions. In the judgment of the Retailers, no other ap- proach is as convenient as the Reber approach. No other is as direct. No other can be built as economically, even with the quarter-mile added to the length. These are impressive points. They induce in disinterested observers a favorable view of the Faetailers-Reber approach. The Municipal As- sembly must give them the weight to which they are entitled. There is a further point of importance. The Retailers-Reber approach can be built in much less time than any other approccu. The claim for the Retailers-Reber plan is that it is the most convenient, the cheapest, the shortest, tne quickest. This is a comprehensive conclusion which should be accepted unless there is a bet- ter.

The spectacle of “Gussie” Peabody, Massachu- setts Congressman and son-in-law of Henry Cabot Lodge, friend of the New England mill bosses and Senator from the Textile Trust, pitching into the Harvester and the Steel trusts is enough to make Nelson Wilmarth Aldrich shed tears of vitriol. sa A te i is a IMMEDIATE SAFETY MEASURES. All the evidence so far obtained concerning the Titanic disaster emphasizes the conclusions as to causes drawn from the earlier reports. The primary cause of the accident is the speed mania which drives the officers of the big ships to take risks in order to maintain and improve speed records. Both the steamship officials and the traveling public are responsible for the speed pressure, The cause of the great loss of life was due to the inadequate supply of lifeboats. If the Ti- tanic had been equipped with boats to accommo- date her entire passenger list the percentage of lives lost would have been very small. There could now be rejoicing and praise instead of mourning and condemnation. Of course, supplementary devices and measures for safety will be adopted, such as the double hull in the side as well as the bottom; two wire- less operators and safer lanes of travel. But less speed, greater caution and more life- boats are the immediate measures of life-saving. , rr

This is a picture of the Free Bridge nearly six years after the people of St. Louis voted bonds fer its construction. The work of construction was commenced more than two years ago. 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 city is paying $350 a day for interest on the Free Bridge bond issue.

TROUBLE AHEAD. From the New York Herald. We call attention in the news columns this morning to the flood of immigrants now pouring into the country through the port of New York. They are coming in larger numbers than ever before. In March 83,654, a record number for that month, passed inspection. So far in April 6000 more have entered than for the first half of April last year. Some 3000 a day, often more, have to be examined by the immigration inspec- tors. Almost needless to say, it is im- possible to determine properly in the time that can be given each of them the At the very most 1800 can be cared for with the quarters and the staff at the corhnmand of the Commissioner of Im- migration. Hence a large number of most unde- sirable persons are being necessarily ad-

Never before was such a report pre- sented to Congress as that statément submitted by the Senate Labor and Ed- ucation Committee on conditions im- posed upon employes by the Stee) Trust. In fact, the statements are of such character as almost to pass belief. ‘Broken in spirtt and racked in body” is the discription of men in the steel mills. “Sodd@en in mind and broken in health {s another specimen of the lan- guage used in the report in regard to the employes. The country will agree with the con- clusion of the committee that “it is just as much the Government’s duty to protect citizens from such outrageous treatment as from the burglar and high- wayman.” LUCKY AND UNLUCKY.

The mothbell season opened auspi- Clously on Saturday last. The weather was beautiful, and there was a great deal of interest. On account of the se- vere winter, moths are a little hardier than they were last year, but mothballs, on’ the other hand, are somewhat dead- lier, and the sport is probably unim- paired. There are a great many new moths, and most of the old ones are back. They have all trained very hard. The rules are somewhat modified this year. The ball will be kicked off with the back field drawn in somewhat from last year’s formation. Fur, who played an end last year, will be at right tackle. Camphor will continue at center. Punts will be quarterback. On the other side, White Moth will be captain and Yellow Moth will be fullback. Cedar Chest and Tobacco will continue at the ends. The ball will be forfeited for holding. Slug- ging will be even more strictly forbid- den than it was last year. Halves will be a cay long, with a half hour in- ANYWAY. Anyway, Mr. Taft will not be a can- didate for a third term. Whatever his faults, it will never be said of him that he was overgrasping for office and tried to break down these barriers to person- al ambition which were raised by the illustrious example of Washington. There will not be any hat. There will not be any ring. Neither will there be one in the other, or contrawise. There will be only the recollection of what a thunderation of a time Mr. Taft had getting the nomination a second time. POETS YOU MAY WANT TO KILL They Gotta Quit Kuockin’ the Tariff Down.

Coming down the gangway is a man, the husband of the young woman in the lifeboat. bride, is entreating him to take the last seat. She, a Behind the man is a@ woman, unknown to either the husband or the wife. The bride- groom is about to join his wife in the last seat, when he remembets ]the unwritten law of the sea, ‘‘ Women and children first.’’ “If he join his wife, the woman behind him will perish. If he gives the woman the last seat, he will perish, leaving his bride a widow. WHAT SHOULD HE DO? W HEN this problem was first presented to its readers by the Post-Dis- patch no details of the rescue of passengers on the Titanic had been received. The following story of the rescue of Mrs. Astor and her husband’s gallantry, which caused his death, was printed on Sat- urday and is a remarkable parallel of the problem presented: Miss Margaret Hays said that at the time that Col. Astor helped Mrs. Astor into the boat there were no women waiting to get into boats, and that a ship’s officer standing by thereupon invited Col. Astor to get into the boat with his wife. “Col. Astor,” says Miss Hays, “after looking around and seeing that this was true, got into the boat and his wife threw her arms around him. The boat was about to be lowered when a woman came running out of the companionway. Raising his hand, Col. Astor stop- ped the preparations to lower the boat, and stepping out, assisted the woman into the boat he had occupied. “Mrs. husband, but he patted her on the back, and said As the boat was being lowered I ‘The ladies will have to go first.’’’ low tone. say: ‘Astor cried out and wanted to get out of the boat with her something in a heard him distinctly ‘THE Post-Dispatch will be glad to print replies from its readers giving their solution of this real-life problem.

There is no law, written or unwrit- ten, nor is there argument strong enough to convince me that I should give up my life for anyone outside my own blood, and could not with consistent reasoning or sound judg- ment be expected in an appalling sit- uation such as the sinking of the ill- fated Titanic, where one is deprived of all sense save the first and strong- est instinct, tenacity to life. The man should take the seat with his wife— absolutely yes. G. W. ANDERSON. $323 Laclede avenue. HONOR FIRST CONSIDERATION. Problem Editor, Post-Dispatch. Yes, any time, anywhere, to a woman. This man is probably married a short while. We cannot say whether or not there is someone in this world waiting for her. A man will stick to the last chance more than a woman. He will leave his bride a widow, but, by giving this seat to the woman, may save some tot from being an orphan. His bride will afterwards say: “He died like a man.” Honor before everything else. MRS. B. D. P. NO ROOM FOR ANOTHER. Problem Editor, Post-Dispatch. Were I in the bridegroom's place, I would put the woman in first and then jump in myself. If there’s room for one they can make room for another. BS. P. THE WIFDH’S PLEA. Problem Editor, Post-Dispatch: The stranger woman should not have the seat, for there is no reason why the man should make a widow of his wife for the sake of a stranger who probably has neither husband or relatives. Take in all the circumstances, look at the bride pleading with her husband, who is probably everything to her. What husband who is devoted to his wife and with whom he has made his life plans, would refuse her? w. F. BRUECKNER. LA OF OHIVALRY. Problem Editor Post-Dispatch. A man of honor and chivalry could not do otherwise and be true to himself, but I am afraid that the men of today, es- pecially those one meets in St. Louis would take the seat, and leave the wom- an to her fate. The majority of them will rush and push themselves ahead into a crowded street car in the morn- ing and more especially in the- evening, take the lest seat, and light a cigar and puff the smoke into the woman’s eyes. Could you expect a man who shows no more courtesy for & woman under ordinary circumstances, to let a woman's helplessness keep him from saving himself. BE. A. BUTLER. WOULD TAKE THE SEAT. .

It would seem from letters published that our men are 100 per cent heroes, which was contradicted at the Iroquois Theater fire, where Many women and children were trampled by men. Self- preservation ts the §rst law of nature, especially where strangers are con- cerned. I'd take the seat. G. M. SHLF-PRESERVATION.

Pe a ee ee ee ee and resign our seat to the unknown woman and as the boat moves off and the ship goes down have within us the feeling that we are dying the death of a hero. But it is to be feared that we would usurp the last seat, that try as hard as we could we would not be able to take our eyes from that lonely figure on the gang-way nor to stop the self-ac- cusation from rising up that compared to us murderers. J. M. A WOMAN'S VIEW. Problem Editor Post-Dispatch. I think he ought to give up his seat to the woman behind him, but I doubt if he will do it. If he should be so ig- norant as to take the last seat, I hope some of the women will have sense enough to push him overboard. G. L. C. GIVE UP ALI. Problem Editor Post-Dispatch. I believe it right for man to give up for woman in life or death, but on the other hand if women want to have equal suffrage why weaker when death stares. G. W. H. ONE RESTRAINT. Problem Editor, Post-Dispatch. Most men of honor would give the seat to the other woman regardless of his bride’s entreaties, but let me say, my fellow men, you cannot decide this ques- tion permanently without actual experi- ence and this none is looking for. We can imagine what we might do. The question is, would you really do it? Your life is as sweet to you as to the woman you are giving this seat. I am afraid the only thing that would make you give up your place in the boat is, death has you in its clutches. A WOMAN. East St. Louis. BRAVE MEN, Problem Editor, Post-Dispatch.

Mr. Jarr was not only to be present, but he was to speak. “And where's the ticket, the banquet ticket?’’ asked Mr. Jarr. “Now don’t worry me about every- thing!’ replied Mrs, Jarr. “You put it on the mantelpiece in the front room the other night, and that’s all I know about it!’’ could not find it. “Oh, I guess that’s only a formality,” he said finally. ‘‘Everybody at the din- ner knows me and knows I’m going to I’ll get in.” ‘“Tt’s a good thing you lost the ticket yourself,’””’ remarked Mrs. Jarr. “If I had mislaid it you’d be raving around here like a crazy man.

The Olympic Games Committee has provided a 200-mile bicycle road race to be run in conjunction with the carnival of world’s championship events to take place in Sweden during June and July of this year. The pick of speed and endurance will be entered in this event, and it has al- ready been ascertained that the United States, England, Germany, France, Italy and Sweden will be represented. The course will be laid around Lake Malar, near Stockholm, and the race will be held in the early part of July. This event was suggested by the Na- tional Cycling Association and indorsed by the Amateur Athletic Union, with which the former body co-operates, though maintaining a separate or- ganization. It was agreed to by the Games Committee, with the understand- ing that each country represented would finance its own team. It has been estimated that a team of 12 to represent the United States will involve an expense of $4000, and this sum is being raised now, $2000 of which has already been subscribed, and it {s con- fidently expected that the total amount required to send a team of 12 will be secured in ample time. If, however, this hope should not be realized, then as many riders will be sent as the amount secured will permit. Tryout Race Here. Try-out races for the American riders will be held during the early part of May in the cities of New York. Buffalo, Boston, Chicago, St. Louis and San Francisco and probably a few others not yet designated. All try-outs will be under the direct supervision of the National Cycling Aesociation’s representa- tives in the respective districts and the dis tance will be 150 miles, but it has not yet been definitely determined whether the first three to finish shall qualify for the elimina- tion race, to be held in Newark, N. J.. on May 25 .or all riders who complete the course within @ time Imit. The elimination race will be at a distance of 100 miles. &t. Louis is in District E, which takes in Missouri, Kansas, Southern Illinois and West- ern Kentucky, and O. F. Hassemer. member of the Board of Control of the National Cy- cling Association, and secretary of the St. cation Building, will be in charge of the try- out race to be held here. The St. Louls Cycling Club will hawe the greatest number of entries in the try-out to be heki here of any organization in the State and amorg those expected to show winning form are Fred Windt, W. C. Martin. J. B. Freeman and Otto Roeder, all of whom are strong riders. and, based upon past perform- ance, they should show to advantage. This club numbers about 70 experienced road rid- ers, and at least 10 of them are known to be in active training for the longtdistance event, Trials to Be Held Mey &, The exact location of the course has not been determined, but will be a circuit of about 35 miles over the roads in the vicinity of St. Louis and the race will be run on May 5, and in case of rain on that day the race will be postponed until one week later and then run off rain or shine. It will be started at 4 o'clock in the morning and a time limit set of 12 hours. The niders will be sent away at intervals of 6 or 10 min- utes, depending upon the number of en- trants.

HAVE TO BUY THE KEY, M R. HEDGES is extremely kind to put up that elaborate score board for the benefit of patrons. If you can read it, it is most handy.

By the same token, it must not be inferred that Mike is superior to Sidney Hatch, Tewanima, Forshaw and other runners oft tried.

Besides, it suggests lack of gejf- control, and presence of ‘‘temperament,’’ on your part—two attributes fang are not at all interested in, when it comes to baseball. Of course it may not have occurred to you that even Ping Bodie has feelings, But we feel safe in aggur- ing you that, beneath every rhinoserog hide, there lurks @ sensitive spot.

Rog- er _had every intention, when he left Si. Louis last Wednesday, of catching the first game of the current series; but the Duke did not figure on running into frigid weather in Pittsburg. That cold spell in the Corsair’s camp put the kibosh on Bresnahan’s arm and now the Toledo terror will nurse his ailing whip for at least an- other seven days. However, if Old Sol gets on the job for a consecutive run of 48 hours, Bresnahan might be able to stretch a point and backstop ih the first collision with the Cubs Wednes- day afternoon. But such a feat is en- tirely contingent on the weather man. On what they showed yesterday, the Reds line up like the most formidable team in the Western wing of the Na- tional League.

There has been a wonderful reformation in this Mr. McLean.

Five of these runs came.in the sixth period, when Steele was found for two singles, a walk and a home run, a triple and a double. It all happened so sud- denly that Bresnahan did not have time to send a recruit to the hillock to replace the faltering spit baller. However, when Eugene Woodburn did go to Steele’s rescue in the eighth inning he made such a sad showing that it seemed fortunate Bresnahan djdn't call on him soon- er. During his brief tenure of office Wood- burn yielded one single and three bases on balls, forcing home a run.

SELLERS MAKE PRICES IN Tht STOCK MARKET Late Quotations Show Losses on Leading Shares; Steel Re- flects Pressure.

: NEW YORK, April 22. The stock market closed irregular. Some issues, including Reading. were marked up sharply . but the effect on the general list was slight. The closing showed sharp losses. Stocks sold at unchanged: figures to % of a point lower in the early Wall Street market today. There was some seliing presstre on the Copper stocks. Steel commen also was easier. Wall Street's mental attitude is be- coming more normal, and as is custom- ary on su.h occasions, traders’ will quickly turn frou the harrowing details of the Titanic disaster to the more def- inite fa:tors in the market situation. Tnese are not all favorable. Not enough importance has been given to the crop conditions over the winter Wheat belt. The spring season so far has been an unsualiy abnormal one, fu.lowing a winter of record-breaking severity.

aaa Traders ignored all bearish statistical news Monday and put wheat up on crop damage reports, which again boardered on the sensational. According to the crop experts the conditions in the wheat fields Que to winter killing are calam- itous. There is little question, however, that the reports are very much exagger- ated. Liverpool cables were weak and lower and the world’s shipments totaled 13,- 824,000 bu, against 11,072,000 bu last week and 12,010,000 bu last year. Northwest- ern receipts were under last -week, but over last year. News was scarce in the early trading, owing to crippled wire service in Illinols, caused by the storm of last night.

Following the opening there was free liquidation and prices quickly declined %d to %d on the re- ports of the early opening of the Dar- darnelles and .lack of support, with a smaller inquiry for cargoés and parcels. The world’s shipments for the week showed a good amount to the United Kingdom, and a good increase on pas- sage and better reports from India were shown. Liverpool corn opened %d lower, and further declined %d with the undertone weak. World's shipments were over ex- ectations, with the Danube contributing iberally and a good percentage going to the United Kingdom. Weather is spring- like in England and this will curtail con- sumption. The Plate grade was rela- tively steady Liverpool wheat futures closed \%d to % 1 lower; corn, 1d lower. Local wheat receipts today were 4,- 758. bu. or 157 sacks, 34 cars local, 3 through; last year, 42,990 bu, or 4 sacks, 96 cars local, 3 through.

How. good it is, to be alive! | All this, and more, you can experience—you, women, who are miserable, sick and weak,—by taking CARDUT, the woman’s tonic. A_ perfectly harmless, vegetable extract, of mild-acting, medicinal, tonic herbs, Cardui is the iéeai strengthening medicine, for women. It helps to restore vitality, tones up the organs, improves the appetite, and brings back the brightness of health. Those who have used it, are its best advertisement. Read _ this letter, from Mrs. Sallie H. Blair, of Johnson City, Tenn. She says: ‘‘I had suffered for 16 months, before I used that great medicine,—Cardui, the woman’s tonic. I had a great deal of pain, such as head- ache, ete., and my troubles caused me much suf- fering. I took many medicines, but they didn’t help me, so I began to take Cardul, and after using two bottles I found great relief. I con- tinued taking Cardui, until I had taken eight bottles, and now I think I am about well. ‘“‘T take great pleasure in recommending Cardui to my neighbors. l eannot say enough in favor of it.’’ wCARDUI _ The Woman’s Tonic ‘ake fe ere 6 SE SDE i £2 ee eS. a s “ANOTHER WOMAN” CAUSE OF TROUBLE WIFE TELLS COUR Mrs. M. D. Silverthorne Whispers to Judge and Her Divorce Case Is Continued. SUBPENA FOR HUSBAND After Couple’s First Separation She Put a Sign in Vestibule, ‘Keep Out YOU.” After Mrs. Margaret D. Silverthorne of 4506 Maryland avenue, wife of Albert E. Silverthorne, general manazer of the Arkansas & Southeastern Railway, leaned over and told Judge Fisher, al- most in a whisper, that her husband’s attentions to a woman had caused their marital troubles, the Judge ordered that a subpena for Silverthorne be issued. The case was continued to Wednesday band and bring him into court. Mrs. Silwerthorne’s statement that a woman came between her and her hus- band was a surprise to a group of her women friends who were in court to hear her testify. She had not mentioned a woman in her petition. Judge Fisher questioned Mrs. Silver- thorne., “Who was the woman?” he asked. ‘“Mabel Watson,’’ replied Mrs. Silver- thorne. She did not further identify the woman. The Judge’s interest in the case was heightened after hearing the testimony of Mrs. Silverthorne’s mother, Mrs. Mary Dockery, that Silverthorne once threw a glass of water in his wife’s face. “She had told the children that they might take a ride in the automobile,”’ said Mrs. Dockery. ‘“‘Mr. Silverthorne said: bile?’ “My daughter answered: ‘Yes. You know very well why you gave it to me, too.” ” ‘Your automo- Have Two Children, Judge Fisher, questioning Mrs. Silver- thorne a second time, -asked her if all the family troubles and all the inci- dents of which she complained, includ- ing the water-throwing incident, were the direct results of quarrels about ‘an- other woman.”’ She said they were. The Silverthornes were married tn Chi- cago in 1893. They have two children, described in the petition as William, 6 years old, and Olga, 17. On the witness stand Mrs. Dockery gave the boy’s name as Albert E., call- ing attention to his being named for his father. Mrs. Silverthorne filed a divorce suit in April, 1910. There was a reconcilia- tion. The second petition was filed last October. Mrs. Silverthorne said that’ the first separation occurred after her husband choked her, leaving marks on her throat. Her cries caused neighbors to rush in, she said. On New Year’s eve, 1910, she said, her husband had promised to take their daughter, Olga, to a watch-night din- ner, but he did not arrive home until morning. They then separated, but were reconciled on his promise never to see “the other woman” again, she said. Dr. L. P. Butler testified that he wa: called to the Silverthorne home to at- tend Mrs. Silverthorne after her hus- band, she said, had choked her. He saw marks on her throat and arms, he declared. Husband Not in Court. Silverthorne was not in court, nor was either of his counsel, Judson, Green and Henry. Thomas B. Harvey, attorney for Mrs. Silverthorne, told the Court he would call Mrs. Mary Overall of 4516 Maryland avenue to testify as to Silverthorne’s treatment of his wife. After the first separation, Mrs, Sil- verthorne attracted much attention in the neighborhood of her Maryland ave- nue home by placing two large signs in the front vestibule. In letters large enough to be easily read from the side- walk, the signs said: ‘‘Keep out YOU.” Silverthorne was denied admission to the house, and Mrs. Silverthorne did not attempt to conceal the fact that she meant the signs for him. Neusteter’s Anniversary. This morning Neusteter’s began a sale to celebrate their 1912 anniversary. Ev- ery sort of outer garment for women, misses and girls was offered at sub- stantial savings, most of the purchases having been made from manufacturers who were willing to reduce profits to allow the store at Seventh and Wash- ington to make unusually attractive offers on their birthday. That the efforts of Neusteter’s to pre- sent values was appreciated is shown by the early and great response to their Sunday announcements of the sale. The crowds about the windows continually shifted to the inside of the store, where waists and pretty silk petticoat bar- rains were attracting on the first floor. The second floor, where women’s gowns and suits are sold, was filled with buy- ers almost as soon as the store opened, as was the misses and girls’ department on the third floor, and the section de- voted to women’s coats. The bargain annex in the basement, a new addition to the store, has bargains even better than usual during the anniversary sale. Eventually, why not now?
