FIGHTING FOR A SHARE OF ESTATE Uses Incident of Anger When Men Asked to Leave Work to Show That Ralph’s Mind Was Failing—Estate Val- ued at $265,000. ne of the reasons given by Stephen . Buck, in his testimony Friday in a \ | _ puit to break the will of his brother, Ly Ralph 8S. Buck, to substantiate his con- “tention that the brother’s mind was fail- ing for some time before death was that the man became violently angry when- - ever an employe would ask to be ex- cused from work to attend a baseball game. Although in earlier days Ralph Buck, who was vice-president and general manager of the Bridge & Beach Manu- facturing Co., was considerate and friendly toward employes, Stephen Buck} said he finally grew so crotchety that he would denounce the employe who wished to go to a ball game as wanting Ne business to go to ruin. Brothers Are Cut Off. {Ralph Buck's will left practically his ‘Mire fortune to his two sisters, Miss rry Buck and Mrs. Lillie Avis, with om he lived in his declining days, but > off his brothers, Stephen, and ‘faries, since dead, without a cent. tephen Buck alleges in the suit that} e sisters unduly influenced Ralph to ake the will at a time when his mental \culties..were.failing. Ralph Buck’s es- tate is valued at $265,000. Stephen Buck testified that he and Ralph were friendly until June, 1910, but in the final two years of his brother’s life they became somewhat estranged. Along about that time Ralph’s disposi- tion changed, he said. His brother be- came irritable, he declared, and easily cross, and would have what Stephen described as ‘“‘tantrums’’ when things went against him. Ralph even was contentious with the sisters with whom he lived at 4349 Olive street, according to Stephen; would swear at them, complain at his meals ana tell them they were living off his bounty. The witness said he frequently urged sisters to assert their independence. Ralph would ask ativice and criticism of business plans, Stephen contigued, and would fly into-a rage when the i@eas differed from his own. Once he _ gskedd Stephen's ideas about a new de- | eign for a stove and when Stephen ex- pressed his opinion frankly Ralph was seized with such a violent fit of anger, the witness said, that he collapsed and had to be carried out of the room. Kept From Bedside. "Btephen testified that during his trother’s last illness he was kept from his bedside; that when hel ould tele- phone for permission to call: pon Ralph one of the sisters ,would inform him Falph didn’t want to see him. Two days ‘before Ralph died, Stephen said he met Miss Carrie at Broadway and Pine street and she told him Ralph was com- pletely out of his mind. ‘On the morning of the day Ralph died Stephen said he telephoned an inquiry as to his conditivii and was told by the nog in charge that Ralph would be out in four or five days. He died at i p..m., but Stephen said he did not learn of it until 4 p. m. ‘Just before noon Judge Fisher and Stephen Buck clashed over-the refusal of the witness to answer a question on cross-examination. Attorney Polk for the sisters had asked him to tell some- thing about a dispute he had -with the a Bridge & Beach Co. over some drafts »" 3 when he was in the concern’s employ. Fisher warned the witness that unless he “actéd like a gentleman,” and an- swered the questions he would have to stand the consequences. 'For& W.

Kava- naugh and Others Who Feted Him, Have Forgotten Him. FAMILY NOT ENTERTAINED Two Years After Naturalization Laborer’s Dream of No Class Distinction Ends. Paul J. Reps, a Lithuanian day labor- er, whose admission to citizenship in the United States was made a society event in St. Louis several years ag°9, when prominent West End women save a fete in his honor, to prove to him that there was no such thing as class distinc- tion in America, has become convinced, of ‘citizenship, that American democracy is a sham. He lives at 4419 Hunt avenue. The main consideration that brought him to this point of view, he says, is that Mrs. W. K. Kavanaugh, wife of the president of the Wiggins Ferry Co., who grranged the fete, has not invited him and his wife, a Bohemian woman, and his four little children to spend the sum- mer as guests at her summer home, Kenneth Castle, at Selma, Mo., on a high bluff overicoking the Mississippi. He also is disappointed because the women who honored him to prove their democracy, have refused to have him and his family as guests in their homes. Reps told his story to a Post-Dispatch reporter Friday. He had been a subject of the Czar. He had heard and read much of Amer- ican democracy, but was skeptical. So, when he came to take out his final nat- uralization papers in the United States Court, he wrote to Mrs. W. K. Kava- naugh, informing her of the fact. In his letter Reps set forth that he had judged she must belong to the high- est social set in St. Louis from what he had read about her in the papers. He told her that he was going to become an American citizen. That it meant everything to him if all that the Con- stitution says is true, but that he doubted there was such an equality in America and insinuated that his citizéen- ship meant little to the persons in Mrs. Kavanaugh’s set. Reception in Hall. Mrs. Kavanaugh and a host of other prominent St. Louis women accepted Reps’ challenge. They hired a hall on Olive street, procured the services of noted St. Louis singers and gave a splendid celebration in honor of the new citizen. The change of Reps’ attitude towards democracy was discovered through a peculiarly worded want advertisement that he inserted in a newspaper Wednes- day. This advertisement read:

PERSONAL—Deaconess or trustworthy per- son who expects to make trip through Si- beria; I would intrust to visit my brother, wealthy merchant, _ tell gospel to him and his children. R. J. Rens, 4419 Hunt av. Reps explained to the reporter that the purpose of the advertisement was to find some missionary or other reli- able person who might be traveling in the neighborhood of Camen, Siberia, and who would bring back .with her to America his niece, 15 years old, who desires to come here, Coming Against His Advice. Reps was careful to point out that it is in opposition to his advice that his niece is coming to the United States. He says his brother, the girl’s father. is a merchant of means at Camen, and that he also wanted to come to the United States, but he persuaded him not to do so. The brothers compro- mised by Reps agreeing that he would look after the Siberian brother's daugh- ter if she came to America. “I have made an American out of this

UR CANNED MILK FOR HARVEY W. JR. Heir to the House of Wiley Will Take Nourish:ment in Primi- tive Way. BABY TAKES A SUN BATH

If a Cow Is Employed, Depart- ment of Agriculture Will Not Inspect It. WASHINGTON, May 17.—Harvey W. Wiley Jr., for that is what his mother already has named him—weighs 9 pounds and 6 ounces, and the hospital attendants and the mother’s physician declare both mother and child are doing splendidly. Dr. Wiley is 66 years young. When seen at his home here by the correspon- dent of the Post-Dispatch, Dr. Wiley said that according to the family Bible, Father Time had tolled off that many years, but that Dr. Young had disputed the question. Dr. Wiley, 48 hours, was in exuberant spirits. He received congratulations in the spirit of 26 and talked of his heir in the language of the nursery. “Congratulate me, well, yes,”’ said Dr. Wiley. Right here Dr. Wiley allowed a broad grin to wreath his entire face and said: “I’m going to stay here long enough, too, to start this boy onthe proper road to good health, education and clean liv- ing.” Harvey Jr. is a likely looking young- ster. When but seven hours of age a photographer took a flashlight picture of him and his father in the sun parlor of the Columbia Hospital. The embryo pure food expert had both eyes wide open, his fist doubled up and his feet ,crossed. As the explosion from the flashlight resounded through the room the little fellow blinked his eye, and actually smiled. The picture shows it. The little man has eyes of the deepest brown, just like his daddy’s. Harvey Sr. Talks Baby Talk. Dr. Wiley expressed himself ds being “simply delighted’’ with his son. He caused’ much merriment among the nurses and attendants at the hospital as he took the child in his arms and talked “baby talk’’ to him. Dr. Wiley, at 3 o’clock in the morn- ing, just a bit more than two hours after Harvey Jr. came into the wor ld, drew up pure food regulations for the baby and his mother. “The best food in the world is what this young man is going to get,’ said Dr. Wiley. “It will be pure food, but without the approval of a. scientific board. This best food in the world for my baby and all. babies is its mother’s mil At this point Dr. Wiley again drew himself up to his full 6 feet 3 inches and said: “IT am a living testimonial of a breast baby. Pretty healthy specimen, hey?’ ‘‘Where a mother is well and healthy, the purest food for an infant is its mother’s milk,’’ said Dr. Wiley, ‘‘and my baby shall get that until he is weaned, unless something happens to his mother. If his mother is not well or her milk does not agree with the baby, he will get the milk from the best cow—a cow that is absolutely healthy and free of all known diseases. The cow from which the milk. will be got will not have been te*.ed by the Department of Agriculture.” Dr. Wiley said that no doubt the ills of many babies were directly traceable to its food. “Mothers,” said Dr. Wiley, ‘‘should see that their milk is the healthiest be- fore giving it to children, and if it is not healthy they should get the best cow’s milk obtainable.” No Patent Foods for Harvey, There will be no patent foods for Master Wiley if Dr. Wiley has his way. In this case, Mrs. Wiley seconds Dr. Wiley’s baby diet, and says she will fol- iow her physician’s and Dr. Wiley’s di- rections. Dr. Wiley has a physician at- tending Mrs. Wiley who holds the same views as he does regarding the feeding of infants. Dr. Wiley did not stop at giving di- rections for the feeding of his baby. He started out by getting, the young citizen of the District of C olumbia and Indiana (for he has already declared him to be a Hoosier) to taking a sun bath. “Sun and fresh air are worth as much as food to a baby,” said Dr. Wiley. “In fact, sunshine and fresh air are really food and should be given a baby just as often and regularly as its food. My baby shall have plenty of both.” The first thing after the sun came out from behind some rain clouds Dr. Wiley carried his offspring from its mother’s’ room to the sun parlor of the hospital, and there the two sat and basked in the warm rays for several minutes. Every day that Mrs. Wiley is in the hospital Dr. Wiley will go there and for a few minutes have his son in the sun parlor.

WYTHEVILLE, Va., May 17.—Floyd Allen, first of the Hillsville mountain- re tried for the Carroll County Court- ‘house murders, was found guilty here today and will pay the penalty of his crime in the electric chair at Richmond. The jury was out all night. Fioya Allen was charged specifically at this time with the murder of Com- monwealth Attorney Foster, prosecutor in the Carroll County Court at Hills- ville, last March, when the trial of Floyd Allen resulted in the killing of five per- sons—Presiding Judge Thorton L. Mas- s'e, Prosecutor William M. Foster, Sher- iff L. F. Webb, Miss Elizabeth Ayres and Juror Augustus Fowler. Arrests of several of the Allens fol- lowed the shooting, but five of the prin- cipals escaped to the mountains. Re- wards for their arrest resulted in three being taken, but Sidna Allen, leader of the clan, and Wesley Edwards, his nephew, still are at large. The other prisoners, it is expeted, will be tried immediately. When court opened today the jurors told of a number of: points of difference and said it was doubtful whether a verdict could be reached. Judge Staples declared the case was one of such mag- nitude he felt he must send the jury

back with a few words of caution and advice. He declared the jury had not been sworn to do other than to reach one conclusion—the guilt or innocence of the accused man. He said if the jurors lost sight of that issue in any private indi- vidual opinion they did wrong to them- selves, and violation of their solemn ob- ligation and grave injustice either to the commonwealth or to the accused man. The jury again retired and it was only a short time before announcement was made that an agreement had been reached. When court reassembled the foreman read the verdict of ‘guilty as charged in the indictment.”” Judge Sta- ples held that was not the proper form: The foreman then explained the verdict was one of guilty in the first degree, the penalty being electrocution. Prisoner May Be Witness, Sentence was not pronounced on Allen today as he may be called to testify in the other cases. Allen was cheerful to- day preceding the announcement of the verdict on expectation of a mistrial, but when the verdict was announced he re- lapsed into despair. There was barely a handful of persons in court. “Whether this was because of fear that the Allens might attempt to repeat the scene enacted at Hillsville is not known, but there was no reason for such fears. Armed detectives searched persons entering the courtroom. JURY IN THE BAKER CASE OUT 26 HOURS

Twelve Men Who Retired at 12:30 P. M. Thursday. Have Not Asked ror Advice. After being out 26 hours, the jury in the case of Sidney Baker, charged with the murder of Peter Waeltz, still was deliberating when the Belleville Circuit Court reconvened for the afternoon ses- sion at 2:30 Friday. Bailiff James Corwin, who was on guard outside the jury room, said there had been no signs of heated discussion and that the jury at no time asked ad- vice or further instructions. The penalty in murder cases in Ili- nois rests with the jury. The mintmum sentence is 14 years’ imprisonment and the maximum is death by hanging. The case was given to the jury at ae

With a right arm punch to the jaw, Mrs. Aline Diamond of 3041 Olive street knocked down her husband, Sergt. Rob- ert Diamond of the United States Army, in the corridor of the Clark Avenue Po- lice Court Friday. Mrs. Diamond had prosecuted her husband for striking her Thursday night and was angry when Judge Kimmel refused to punish him. | “If the Court will not punish you, I will,”” Mrs. Diamond exclaimed after the hearing, as she drew back for the’ 3 Policemen standing in the Jyh relped Diamond to his feet Be took the couple to a Schwartz's office in the Central Station, Diamond insisted that Capt. Schwartz lock up Mrs. Diamond, but the police official refused. As Mrs. Diamond was leaving Capt. Schwartz's office she shouted back: “I'll whale him tonight.”’ Sergt. Diamond testified that he was assigned by the United States Army to train the members of the First Regiment cf the Missouri National Guard. He met his present wife in January, and mar- ried her in March. The trouble started Thursday night, he said, over the pho- tograph of a woman in exceedingly dec- cllette costume, which Mrs. Diamond found in her husband's pocket. Mrs. Diamond offered the picture in evidence, and Judge Kimmel tore it up. He admonished the couple to live to- gether in peace. Judge Kimmel thought he had satis- fied both Diamond and his wife, and dismissed the charge against the hus- band, When Mrs. Diamond was taken to the police station, after knocking down her husband, she laughed. “Sure, I put him down and out,” she] sc

SETTLE RACE FOR ==) G.0.P. NOMINATION Roosevelt Says He Doesn’t Need State, Taft Says He Needs 7 More Votes to Win. T. R. CALLS HEARER “FOOLISH CREATURE” LIMA, ©., May ii. W oe Roosevelt was speak-

ing here a man called out: “What about the third term?’ The Colonel whirled about and pointed his finger in the direc- tion of the questioner: “You can't ask me any question, you foolish creature, that I can’t answer,” he said. “I will answer you by quot- ing the words of President Taft's father about the chird term.” He then. read a letter written by Judge Alphonse Taft, the Presi- dent’s father, saying that “the only danger lay in the use of Fed- eral patronage for the purpose of procuring a third consecutive term.”

By Wire From the Washington Bu- reau of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, May 17.—Out of the maze of claims and counter claims, Genials and disputes, as to the dele- gates to the national conventions al- ready chosen, there is this one fact that all agree upon: The result in Ohio will be fatal to somebody. Roosevelt boomers declare the Colonel can be nominated without Ohio, but that if Taft loses his home State, his cause is lost. This belief is widely held. The Taft people profess to feel little uneasiness as to the result in Ohio, but they are. meking a most energetic campaign. They say the State will go for her native son, and that he will then have enough votes to control the convention. Roosevelt’s manager denies the President will have a majority _in the convention. even with Ohios 4 votes. Delegates Instructed. Republican delegates instructed or pledged are as follows: Taft, 511. Roosevelt, 393. Cummins, 10. La Folette, 36. Necessary to nominate, 540. Both Taft and Roosevelt claim the 20 Mississippi delegates. Each side claims to have held the regular con- vention. Taft claims 18 from South Carolina, the total. delegation, while Roosevelt claims 14. Roaggevelt has been given notice of 164 contests, covering most of the.Southern States. He can- cedes Taft but 151 delegates, listing a4 @ uningtrdeted. “'Taft allows for ‘no uminstructed delegates but Msts all as “instructed or pledged.’’ Claims for President. The following is the latest statement from the National Taft Bureau: “Washington State's 14 votes to the’ National convention go into the Taft column. In addition, Utah will send a solid Taft delegation of eight to Chi- cago. These 22 votes added to the Taft column today increase President Taft's total of de/egates to 525, and bring him within 15 votes of actual ¢ontrol of the National convention. Today Montana’s eight delegates will be added to ‘his column, reducing the number of dele- gates necessary to bring about his re- nomination to 7. Additional delegates yet tO be chosen in the Congressional District conventions in Texas and Ar- kansas will put the President in actual control of the convention, with the States of Ohio, New Jersey, Arizona, Idaho, North Carolina and South Dakota yet te be heard from. Situation in California. ~ “The loss of Washington and Utah to Mr, Roosevelt makes his chances of re- nomination etill further impossible. Mr. Roosevelt needs 249 delegates to nomi- nate and only 216 more remain to be elected. “President Taft carried the Fourth Congressional District of California, en- titling him, under the call of the Re- publican National Committee, to re- ceive the two votes from this district in the national convention. Under the primary law of California, the entire delegation from that State was elécted at large and on this preferential vote Mr. Roosevelt will receive the votes of the entire delegation, if the National Committee waives its rule in favor of the State law.” President Taft said in Ohio today: “I have not even considered the possibility of my failing to get the majority of delegates from Ohio. I have every reason to believe that my fellow citizens will instruct their rep. resentatives at Chicago to vote for me. But even if they should not do go I have no intention of withdrawing from the contest as long as there remain any delegates who favor my nomination. “So far as Justice Hughes is con- cerned, he has already spoken for him- self, and I believe, finally, in answer to requests from his friends as to his purpose In reference to the presidency.” By contesting Southern delegates, Sen- ator Dixon, chairman of the Roosevelt Committee, expects to keep President Taft from going in on the first ballot. He is trying to disorganize the Southern forces. Democratic situation is about thus: Delegates instructed or pledged to Baldwin, 14. Underwood, &. In Massachusetts, 15 were pledged to Gov. Foss, but he released them. In FRIDAY EVENING, MAY 17, ‘1912. nena a + | the. eritire Snteashusstin astenation. “Wilson claims the entire 26 from. Wis- consin, but Clark concedes him only 18.

Robinson, Assistant United Siates Attorney, have been guilty of se- dition in conducting the “free speech” crusade in San Diego. The Eastern witnesses will be exam- ined with a view to learning if the ac- tivities of the Industrial Workers in California and other sections of. the Pacific Coast were directed from the -headquarters of the “direct action” or- ganization. In this respect the inquiry assumes a national aspect, and its pur- posef operily admitted by Government offictaila is to ascertain whether the In- dustrial Workers of the World, as a na- tional organization, is liable to prosecu- tion under existing states of the United States. Several witnesses from different parts of Southern California appeared before the grand jury today. METHODISTS FAIL TO | ELECT SECOND BISHOP D. G.

She declared she wished to teach them to be as independent and self-reliant as other. people. Barred by the rules from the Missouri School for the Blind until she was 9 years old, Miss Holt, at 20, has been and the Teachers’ College of the St. Louis public schools. Her remarkable talent attracted the attention of the Coliege Club of St. Louis, which awar4d- ea to her the Washington University “T shall take the full four years’ course in Washington University, but I expect to finish ft in three and one-half years an account of the credits I shall receive for the work done in the Teach- ers’ College,” Miss Holt said. “I want to prepare myself for teaching persons afflicted as I am. I have been blind since I was a year old. Can Better Appreciate Plight. “I feel that I can better appreciate and sympathize with the blind than per- sons who can see. Blind people now feel that they have to live in a world to themselves. They do not come in contact with the outside world, and many of them live within the 2arrow walls of public institutions. ‘‘We are looked upon as dependents. ward us makes us feel that we are de- pengents. It has been my life’s ambi- tion to be independent, just as people are who have all their faculties, and I want to spend all my life trying to make people who are afflicted as I am feel the same way. “Blind persons can do many things just as well as those with eyes. Our work, though, is regarded by the public as freakish. A blind persons who can weave a better basket than a person with eyes is regarded as a genius. Asa matter of fact many blind persons are as adept workmen as those with eves. “The regulation barring blind children from the School for the Blind until they are 9 years old is wrong. It caused me to lose four years of the most impres- sionable period of my life. I wag kept out of school by the foolish notion that blind children are timid and need the care of their parents to a greater ex- tent than other children. I hope the time will soon come when blind children. will be admitted to schools and kinder- gartens, just as young as other chil- dren.”’ Miss Holt is the daughter of Mrs. James H. Holt. She was born in Louis- ville, and came with her parents to St. Louis. When she was a year old she lost her sight through illness. “I can find no adequate words to ex- press my gratitude to the College Club for offering me the Washington Univer- sity course,’’ she said. “I am eager-for September to come so that I can get to my studies again. The Braile system, which is really a shorthand system for the blind, will enable me to pursue my studies by touch just as readily and thoroughly as if I could see. I want to finish the course so that I can get back to the School for the Blind as a teacher. I taught one term there while taking the course in the Teacher’s College.” NCHE—AIl is forgiven.

‘STAGE BY CANNON LOSES HIS SUIT} Case of Alonzo C. Wright Against Col. Spencer and, 1st Infantry Ass’n. Thrown Out. POWDER BURNED AT SHOW Out of Date Artillery Piece Ex- ploded Prematurely at ‘“Shen- andoah”’ Matinee. The suit of Alonzo C. Wright against Col. E. J. Spencer and the First Infan- try Armory Association on account of injuries received by the plaintiff from the premature discharge of a cannon was taken from the jury by Circuit Judge Allen Thursday. Col. Spencer’s attorney, H. Chouteau Dyer, also an officer in the First Regi- ment, invoked the fellow-servant law and the court upheld him. The case had been appealed from the court of Justice of the Peace Spies, who award- ed a judgment in favor of the plaintiff for $75. Wright, as a member of Battery A., volunteered to help the First Regiment in its production of “Shenandoah” at the Odeon in May, 1911. At the matinee May 6, while Wright was serving an old piece of artillery, used in the Civil War, it was prematurely discharged, and he was powder burned on the right hand. He did not have on gauntlets and he said if he had been provided with these articles he probably would not have been hurt. Lieut. E. O. Sanguinet, in command of Battery A, testified for the plaintiff. He said that he had charge of the firing of the cannon, but that afternoon left it to Sergt. Stedman of the U. S. Army, while he sat in the audience. The Lieu- tenant said that when the explosion occurred he heard the ramrod which Wright had been using strike against the scenery. The cannon was directed at some “‘Confederates’’ and because of its pre- mature discharge several soldiers, it was testified, ‘‘died’’ sooner than planned. “Can’t Tell You, I’ve Got to Die.” Edward R. Niehaus of Battery A, one of the cannoneers, testified that the cannon was an old muzzle-loader. “I saw Wright ram the charge,”’ said Nie- haus, “and then the explosion oc- curred. Some one said to me, ‘Wright was shot, but I haven’t: got time to tell you about it. I've got to die.’” While Lieut. Sanguinet was on the stand he got into a colloquy with At- torney Dyer as to whether Col. Spencer had eommand of Sergt. Stedman, a regular army soldier. The battery of- ficer first said that Stedman was under Col. Spencer’s control, but finally ad- mitted this would be so only on field of battle. It was conceded that in a place like the Odeon Spencer had ne jurisdic- tion over the army sergeant. Wright, in his petition, alleged that the defendants promised to pay what- ever the doctor and medicines cost on account of his injuries. This, he said, they failed to do. EVANGELIST HELD AS . SLAYER AND ROBBER Man’ Who Conducted New York Street Meetings Indicted for Killing Saloon Man. NEW YORK, May 17.—Accused of be- ing engaged in a career of burglary which led to a killing, Francis Wesley Muehlfeldt, who was conducting a series of open-air evangelistic meetings, is under indictment here today for murder in the first degree. The “king of the New York automo- bile bandits’’ is the characterization of the prisoner by Deputy Police Commis- sioner Dougherty in alleging the re- markable case of dual personality. Muehlfeldt is charged with the mur- der of Patrick Burns, a saloon keeper of the borough of the Bronx, who was slain the night of Feb. 11 by a masked highwayman, who escaped in a taxicab. Burns was formerly chief of police of Findley, O. Headquarters detectives a week ago arrested Muehifeldt in Vineland, N. J., where he had obtained employment as an attendant in the New Jersey Home for Feeble Minded Boys and Girls. In his room the police found many books on criminology. Muehlfeldt, who is 2 years old, recently married a young woman of social prominence. For months before the murder of Burns, Muehlfeldt ,was engaged in con- ducting open-air revivals in Harlem and the Bronx.

Chain Gang Work Imperative—| Lunch at Noon Is the Last Meal of the Day.

Prisoners in the Clayton jail share the belief of St. Louis County officials that Charles R. Drummond, son of a rich to- bacco family, will soon surrender and become one of their number. As Was exclusively published in the Post-Dis- patch, Thursday, Drumond’s attorney has called on the officials to learn what might be the fugitive’s fate if he sur- rendered. Drummond has been a fugi- tive a year following violation of his parole after conviction of bigamy. The prisoners are anxious to welcome Drummond and to cite him before the mangaroo court which is a feature of Clayton jail life, and which no new prisoner can escape. : Charles H. Miller, who, like Drum- mond, violated a parole, and who is serving a six months’ sentence in jail, told a Post-Dispatch reporter that the prisoners, for nearly a month, have been daily expecting Drummond. In- formation that Drummond was “coming in”. reached the prisoners in some un- derground way which the; will not dis- close. ms CharHe Called “A Live One.” “O, yes, we're waiting for Charlie,”’ said Miller. ‘‘We’ll be glad to see him, because they say he has lots of money. He’s a live One and We believe he will chip in for extra food and make things better for everybody here.” There are now 10 prisoners in the jail. Sometimes there are 40. Whites and blacks are not separated and under crowded conditions Drummond might have to share his cell with a negro. The portion of the jail to which he would be assigned as a convicted prisoner is on the first floor. ‘There are eight cells, each 6 feet square and 8 feet high. The cells are on either side of a cor- ridor 20 feet long and 6 feet wide. Pris- oners have the free use of this corridor day and night and are never locked in their cells unless they become unruly. Cell lights dre put out at 9 p. m., but 9. light in the corridor burns all night. The prisoners sleep in hammocks sus- pended from the ceilings of their cells. There are always two men in a cell and sometimes eight. When a prisoner is taken into the jail,- he is at once cited before the Kangaroo Court, of which the other prisoners are members. He is charged with. breakirfg into jail and with dis- turbing the peace. The usual penalty is a fine ranging from 2% cents to $1. If the new prisoner cannot or will not pay the fine, he must work it out by doing all of the prison drudgery work. Must Clean Cells, Serve Meals. For a stated period the prisoner con- yicted by the Kangaroo Court must clean the cells and corridor, wash dishes, serve meals to the other prison- ers and perform similar tasks. Miller outlined the daily jail routine. The prisoners, he says, arise at 5 a. m. For half an hour they sing popular songs. Then they roll up their ham- mocks and take their turns washing m the single basin provided for that pur- pose. At 7 a. m. they have their breakfast, consisting of a thick slice of dry bread, a three-inch section of bologna sausage and a cup of black coffee. After break- fast they exercise in the corridor or hold kangaroo court until 8:3 a. m., when the chain-gang is made up. No prisoner can escape duty on the chain gang unless he is too ill to work. When the number of prisoners is large. only 10 each day are placed in the gang. Before they are taken out, each prisoner’s feet are fastened together with a chain 14 inches long. Members of the gang work county roads, break rock, mow the courthouse lawns or chop trees. Jatler George Kern stands over them with a loaded rifle. Automobilists on the public road often stop and curiously gaze at the men at work. Last Meal of Day at Noon, At noon they have a luncheon consist- ing of a cup of soup, a piece of boiled beef or pork, a dish-of beans or peas and a cup of coffee. On rare occasions they have pudding. This is the last meal of the day. There is no supper. Those who wish to eat in the evening must save out some of their luncheon. Prisoners who can afford to do so are permitted to buy food at the Clayton stores. Trusties execute these errands. It is a rule of the jail that all delicacies brought to prisoners by friends or rela- tives must be divided wih the other prisoners. This applies also to tebacco and cigars. If a prisoner violates this rule or shows a disposition to be stingy, the ether prisoners refuse to associate with ‘him and seize every opportunity to make jail life doubly unpleasant for him. The county authorities refused to dis- cuss further the rumor that Drummond is in or near St. Louis and is ready to surrender. Prosecutor Mills repeated his statement that he will not recommend clemency or consider a secon antil Drummond has served a part of his jail sentence. the ond rin An Goo Me on Santo Dominican Customs Grow, WASHINGTON, May 1li.—American management of Santo Dominican cus- toms has resulted in an increase in re- feeipts of $206,522 in the first quarter of 1912, compared with the corresponding The first quarter re- ceipts for 1912 were $995,754, according to i on the

GIRL IS SHIPPED IN A DRY GOODS BOX Wellesley Junior’s President Thus Outwits Sophomores, Performs “Sacred” Rite. CAMBRIDGE, Mass., May 17.—A dry goods box with a young woman nailed up inside of it was received at Welles- ley College. The “‘living freight’ was Miss Beatrice Van Slyke, president of the junior class, and it was her strategy in traveling concealed in a box that enabled her class to march last night around the campus in white sheets, in solemn procession, carrying lighted candles and chanting a dirge in Latin. The class procession could not be held until the class president had burned the forensic and the sophomores kept such close watch on Miss Van Slyke that she had to put up a plot. With three girl confederates she planned the box strate- gy, eluded two sophomores who were shadowing her and boarded a train bound for Boston. When she got off the train and into the box it is not Known. But an hour later a crowd of unsuspect- ing sophs watched the box carried into the college. Porters carried it into the library.

Paty Deposit It Before Going to Sleep as Wards of Police. LOUISVILLE, May 17.—When Peter Stotts and his wife, an elderly couple, were taken to a police station to reecive a@ night's lodging, by a kind-hearted traf- fic officer who found them begging, they were told to deposit anything of value they might have on their persons, at the desk lest they should be robbed by other inmates. Thus cautiqned, the old man-furmbled ti:rough his tattered clothing until he had produced a dozen small bags, con- taining a total of $101.80, to which his wife added $5 more she had garnered BUSH’S CHILD IN SMASHUP Girl Tries to Drive Auto and Hits Lamp Post.

AMENDMENT DENOUNCED Festus J. Wade Says Realty As- sessment Is Principal Fault in Missouri. The proposed single tax amendment to the Missouri Constitution, to be voted on at the November election, was dis- cussed from both sides at the annual installation banquet of the Real Estate Exchange in the City Club Thursday night. Judging from the applause that greeted the various speakers, the real} estate men will oppose the amendment. John Z.. White of Chicago, a repre- sentative of the Equitable Taxation League, said a city had been built “in a mudhole” across the river from St. Louis because the Illinois tax rates were more favorable to manufacturers than those of Missourl. Pullman estab- lished his car shops near Chicago, White declared, to avoid the tax Missouri levies on industry. Festus J. Wade was called on to an- swer White. He said he recalled the time Pullman canvassed St. Louis for a possible site for the car works. The shops finally were built near Cnicago, hé said, because that was Pullman’s homie, The principal fault with the Mis- souril tax laws, Wade said, is that &t. Louis and Kansas City are obliged to assess real estate at a high rate in order to meet municipal expenses, while in the country districts the ratio of as- sessment to actual value is small, A. H. Frederick said the plan to tax no other industry than the manufacture of malt, spiritous and vinous liquors, as proposed in the amendment, is a base appeal to. prohibition sentiment for which the amendment should be de- feated. Prof. A. A. Young of Washing- ton University, whose report on the amendment to the Civic League caused the League to indose the amendment, spoke in defense of the single tax the- ory. W. A. Ferree, in his address on ‘‘Real Estate Publicity,’’ said real estate men should display their newspaper advertis- ing more attractively. Maclyn Arbuckle, a St. Louis actor, now playing at the Columbia Theater, told funny stories, and several young men sang. Everybody joined in singing a parody on “Evérybody’s Doing It,” the chorus of which referred to Frank H. Gerhart’s free bridge work, and A. R. Schollmey- er’s ‘“‘Hillcrest’’ auction, the latter be- ing referred to as ‘“‘Helicrust.’’ Gerald B. O’Reilly, retiring president, told of the record the Exchange had made the last year. Pregident Scholimeyer spoke lof plans for the coming year, and James P. Blake told of arrangements made by St. Louisans to attend the convention of real estate exchanges at Louisville, June 19, 20 and 21.

HUSBAND’S RIGHT TO SPANK WIFE UPHELD Court Rules That Punishment Is “Disciplinary Rather Than Abusive and Cruel.” ALLENTOWN, Pa., May 17.—Attorney Alfred S. Hartzell, who was appointed some time ago to act as master in ia divorce proceeding, has made a report to the court. in which he declares that a husband sometimes is justified in beating his wife. And the court looks upon Attorney Hartzell’s sound law. The report was made in the suit brought by Mrs. Fannie J. Clewell against Robert E. Clewell. Testimony report as | shows the wife frequently and without justifications had accused the husband of infidelity, whereupon the husband, Court, Attorney Hartzell writes: “Corporal punishment of a wife by a |without argument, piaced her across his kness and proceeded to use his slipper as a flail. ln making his report te the husband, when provoked by false ac- cusations of infidelity, may be held to be disciplinary rather than abusive and cruel. Eminent sociologists agree that our scale of civilization has not entire- ly outgrown the efficacy of the more drastice corrective measures.” Attorney Hartzell is married. DR. BROWN TO FIGHT SUIT Woman Asks. $10,000 Damages of .Former Hospital Official, Dr. John Young Brown, former super- interident of the city hospital, declared Friday that he would fight the $10,000 damage suit filed against him in the United States District Court by Mrs. Mary Louise Zimmer of Coulterville, lil. Mrs. Zimmer alleged that her leg had been permanently injured as the result of a treatment by Dr. Brown. Answering the allegations in Mrs. Zimmer's suit, Dr. Brown said: “The petition represented to me is grossly misleading as to the facts in the case. The facts are that I performed an operation on Mrs. Zimmer at St. John's Hospital to remove a cancer. It was a eapital operation and she recovered, During her stay in the hospital a blister developed on her leg, which was remote from the seat of the cancer, It turned into an ulcer. There was no apere tion on her leg performed by me. FRIDAY EVENING, MAY 17, 1912. Finds Wife and 2 Children Dead. gee N.

a neem DOCTORS ON HOSPITAL BOARDS. While the Council, out of eference to the Mayor, has confirmed his nomination of several medical men to the Hospital Board in the past, it has done so with misgivings and reluctance. It is right in holding that a board composed ex- clusively of business men and men of profes- sions other than the medical will give better re- sults. The Mayor is involved in his present difficul- tles because the nomination of Dr. H. Wheeler Bond, unobjectionable in other respects, again violates this sound rule in hospital management. The hospital responsibilities of professional con- cern only are a heavy enough burden for the col- lective medical gentlemen of the city without the business and executive problems. If we are given, the present exhibition of personal antagonisms and jealousies: between rival schools of medicine before confirmation, what would result in the event that the nomination is confirmed? physicians of Dr. Bond have stirred up all. the .“Get-Rich-Quick”’ Brother} EIGHTH PURE MILK FUND. Whatever is done in St. Louis during the com- ing summer to save the babies and mitigate the effects of high temperatures for destitute fam- ilies and invalids should be done promptly. Plans are already perfected in detail for the * }eighth annual Post-Dispatch fund to provide pure milk for the babies and ice for poverty-stricken homes. The work begins with the momentum of the success gained in seven past years and with an organization representing the suggestions past experience offers for effectiveness. Many of the results achieved in these seven years cannot be expressed in figures. They are found in thou- sands of children preserved for lives of useful- ness and in the relief of countless hardships which the hot season brings to those shut in or struggling against odds with financial misfortune. The seven prior Post-Dispatch funds aggregated $24,771.91. Probably no money is spent in St. Louis with a stricter regard for results or with a larger return in value received. The Post-Dispatch is again prepared to re- ceive and acknowledge through its columns con- tributions to this fund. The first of the season’s entertainments for the benefit of the milk and ice philanthropies will be the “Famous 1912 Fol- lies,”” arranged for the Century Theater next Thursday night by employes of the Famous and Barr Co. Other benefit entertainments will be announced as the season progresses. The chil- dren who have done so much in the past for the babies of the poor will do their part again. Their elders should co-operate with them. i — There are portions of St. Louis County where grade separation is as important as in the out- lying quarters of the city. Fortunately, the topog- raphy of the county is such that at many cross- ings the improvement can be made at a minimum of expense. ’ — —— nl

== * — ‘*‘BUSINESS’’ ON THE BENCH. As the testimony in the investigation of Judge Robert W. Archbald of the “Commerce Court” lengthens, it becomes more and more unmis- takable that he was engaged in an attempt to make money by speculative methods. It is also manifest that his place on the bench was in- volved at all times indirectly and sometimes directly in these attempts. - The money made in these “option deals” with corporations involved or likely to be involved in litigation before the ‘Commerce Court” could not have been earned under any circumstances if obtained by such methods. The methods of the operator are not compatible with those of the Federal bench. Judge Arch- bald may succeed notably as a speculative finan- cier. He has already made the greatest of all failures on the bench. He should be impeached for unfitness, regardiess of all technical questions of legal guilt. Proof of his unfitness can be found in his amazing leniency in the Wire Trust cases. ——

Local Men Will Sing Sawyer’s New Dawg Song and Send Up " Balloons. 4

Membere of the enti men’@ clubs of Indianapolis, St. Paul, Minne- apolis and Louisville, en route to the national convention of advertising men eat Dailas, were entertained at luncheon at the City Club Friday by the St. Louis Ad Men's League. Invitations to the representattves of 45 clubs to stop in, St. Louis were sent out by President I. H. Sawyer several days ago. The delegation representing ‘the Boston Pil- grim: Publicity Association arrived too late to attend the luncheon.

Nevertheless the Club Appears to Have Started on a Division Genuine First Campaign. ott

By W. J. O’CONNOR LTHOUGH they have won their last six games, threshold of first division, the Cardinals are receiving very little encour- ( The daily attendance at Robison Field has been distressingly small, not more than 2500 having paid to see the Cardinal climbers at any one game since they returned home from their disastrous Western road trip. The attendance has fallen off to 450 at some of the games. . A agement from the fans. The fans are skeptical. They are only too willing now to believe that the cur- rent winning streak is another “‘flash in the pan.” They want to “be shown.” And because the Cardinals are fatten- ing up at the expense of Brooklyn and Boston the fans are firmly convinced that these two teams are weaker than they were last season. The contrary is true. Boston has a much improved team over last season. The addition of such men as Campbell, Hess and Devlin is calculated to make the Braves more formidable. Brooklyn bas strengthened its infield with Smith, @ really great hitter, and Tooley, a good shortstop. Moran is a better ballplayer than Coulson, last year’s right fielder, Lut ft is true that Dahlen’s pitchers are going none too good. However, that’s not the reason for the Cardinals’ win- ning streak. Team Has Improved. Bresnahan’s club is playing champion- ball these days. They’re probably play- ing the best ball of ‘any club in the League, save the Giants and possibly the Reds. The infield, since Hauser has re- turned, is traveling at a dizzy pace. Oakes and Ellis are playing riotously on the defensive. Hits are coming when they are needed and the club’s attack is powerful. * But the Cardinals have been and still are weakened by the loss of three stars ~ Bresnahan, Evans and Harmon. Last season Evans was the club’s premier swatter. Bresnahan’s reputation as a hitter needs no miention. The fans are aware of Roger’s worth. And Harmon must be es- teemed one of the National League’s pre- mier right-handers. But these three men are missing. and yet the Cardinals are ready to bust into first division. Roger’s Men Have Been Busy. The club has played more games than any other team in the League. Incidentally, it has lost more, while only three teams—Chi- cago, Cincinnati and New York—have won more. Thursday’s standing shows that the and now are on the Giants are 10 full games ahead of the Cards, However, McGraw'’s men have not had their slump. Every team hits the toboggan at least once a season. Some good teams fall into two losing streaks, but history tells of no team that estaped without at least one short losing streak. The Gardinals have had their slump. The Giants and Reds have not. Bresnahan has been fortunate in finding a good pitcher in Joe Willis, rounding out a complement of four fancy looking curvists. And with the prospect of Roger, Evans and Harmon soon getting back into harness. and the team’s worst slump behind them, the chances for the Cardinals rocketing towards the top of the Lyneh League Jadder are alluring. Roger must be reckoned with this season. May Leap Higher in Race. The Cardinals have an excellent chance of locating in third place before the intersec- tional series closes next week. Brooklyn winds up here Friday. The Superbas then open in Chicago, while the Phillies come here. Last year the Superbas won 13 of their 22 games from the Cubs. The Cards copped 13 of their 22 games from the Phillies. If the Superbas and Cards still can exercise their Jinx over the Cubs and Phillies. respectively, the local entry surely will move into third place a week from today. Chicago is -only two and a half games ahead of the Cardi- nals this day and date, and Chance’s team has been going none too well, while the Cards—well, the fans know what has hap- pened in the past seven days. A very interesting series will open in Cincinnati Saturday. The Giants call on the Reds for five games. Matty, who has lost one game in five years to the’ Rhineland- ers, probably will pitch the opener. If he gets away with a victory, New York may knock the Reds into a cocked hat, but if “Big Six’’ fails, then O’Day’s gang will be in a fair way to regain the lead which it} held the greater part of the season. But ‘tis well to remember that winter weather still is on tap. The teams will not square away for the real chase until the mercury climbs up the thermometer. Pitts- burg and Chicago, especially, figure to im- prove in the warm days, and if-Old Sol is on the job during the month of June, the N. L. scramble should tighten up materially, with the Cards fighting to the fore every

afternoon.

FOR HEARING PHILADELPHIA, May 17.—Ty Cobb, the Detroft @emon, who was indefinitely suspend- ed yesterday by Ban Johnson for his fracas with a spectator in the New York grand stand, intends to ask President Johnson for a hearing. Cobb justified his action by the explana- tion that “no man would stand for what that fellow said.’’ However, Tyrus admits he lost his head and now is truly penitent. In the meantime, Manager Jennings is wor- ried, because his club cannot afford to lose Ty at this stage of the race. FRED DENNIE GETS JOHN BENDER’S JOB The selection of Fred B.

He wag sent up on the recommenda- tion of Scout Monte Cross, who is touring the East in the quest of talent for the Browns. Ketter is built on the chunky lines of Catcher Paul Krichell, but is a couple of inches taller than the Bronx eafe owner. This was his third season in the Tri-State. In 1911 he batted in 41 ‘games for a swatting mark of .309, and caught 28 games, with an average of .979. Cross’ tip to Manager Wallece is that

PITCHING TO BLAME FOR BROWNS’ SHOWING, TEAM’S MANAGER SAYS WASHINGTON, May 17. HE fact -that the Browns have 7 had a disastrous season in the East to date does not mean that Munager Wallace has given up hope cf pulling out of last place. He is still firmly convinced that his team ig a far better one than it was a year ago, but he has been handicapped by the weather. which has held back his pitchers. “The material is there all right,’’ said Maneger Wallace to the Post- Dispatch, “‘and with a little luck and good weather we will prove that our present slum@ is only temporary. The pitchers are mainiy to blame, as we have proven good run scorers in some of the games. The other fellows come. on and make more ryns than we do, no matter what our total is. The long layoff in New York hurt most. But once we get going I look for some good results,”’

By CLARENCE F. LLOYD. Of the Post-Dispatch Sporting Staft. WASHINGTON, May 17.—The loss of five successive games to the Eastern teams of the American Leaugue may mean a general shaking up of the Frowns’ lineup and batting order. Man- ager Wallace is unable to sleep, owing to the failure of the team to win. At the same time, he is at a loss what to do. The material seems there, but when the other departments of the team play baseball as it is written, the pitchers invariably spill the beans. The team isn’t winning and Waflace has about made up his mind to make some shifts. The rest has helped Wallace considera- bly. The swelling in his leg has disap- peared and but for the fact that he fears it will return if hesgets back too soon, he would redon the spangles at an early date. In the last two games ir Boston, however, Hallinan played excellent baseball. Must Face Walter Johnson. It was pouring down rain when the Browns arrived here shortly before noon yesterday, making it impossible to stage the opening game of the series of four with Clark Griffith’s Nationals. The Brownies today are scheduled to perform in the opening game of the series against Walter. Johnson, “the famed Idaho speed wonder, who is said to be going better this season than ever before. Against him will probably be pitted Joe Lake, Shotton’s Hitting Improves. A pleasing feature of the stay in Boston was the hitting of Bert Shotton. In the four games the Ohio barber stung the ball for a .571 average. In 14 trips to the pan he poled eight safeties, George Stovall fared badly. The ex-Nap went hitless when a bingle, especially in the last game against Wood, would have sewed up the matinee for the Brownles. Lou Criger ehaperoned George Baumgard- ner 500 feet above the earth: yesterday to the top of the Washington Monument. George disliked the noise made by the elevator in ascending and refused to come down in the lift. The result wag that the veteran catcher and the recruit pitcher climbed down more than 600 stairs and at the bottom Lou was

Harry Brewer, the Kansas City to- bacconist who boxes Ray Bronson at the Coliseum here May 23, has been working out with Harry Trendall and other local lights at the Business Men’s gymnasium. As soon as the tempera- ture rises Brewer will probably select Riverside Park as his headquarters and do his work in the open air. Brewer may have to train hard to get within the weight. Brewer has won over many admirers by his show- ing here both in practice and in the bout with Eddie Randall. Brewer is a difficult man to reach and a hard one to hurt when hit. Bronson Growing Heavy. Bronson claims the welterweight title on the score that he is the only man of consequence in the country who can welgh in at the 142 pounds ringside, It is whispered now that Bronson him- self is having his troubles getting with- in the limit and will soon be too big for this division. The welter is an awkward weight for pu- gilists. It seems to be a permanent figure for but few fighters, nearly all stopping just short of it, or passing on into the middle- weight division. Title holders in this di- one have all been compelled to abandon honor through inability to squeeze down a the figure. ‘ e Jack Navis. who has been boxing in pre- liminaries here, has been called home to Pennsylvania by a letter announcing the se- rious iliness of his mother. . s . Wolgast Needs Work. Aa Wolgast is supposed to be all fn, as a result of his operation, It is more probable that his condition is due to lack of work and boxing practice than to any serious result of his trouble last November. Adolph never made much of an impression as a fancy boxer, in any case. a * s Joe Mandot has a bout at Memphis next Monday, when he meets Ray Temple before a Memphis club. Ollie Kirk, who is back home, after knock- ing out Kid West at Dayton, is dickering for a bout before the Little Rock club with Al Delmont, Soft for Kilbane. The gross receipts of the 10-round bout between Champion Johnny Kilbane and Frankie Burns amounted to $7575. Of this sum Kilbane got a guarantee of $5000, and the State received $378.75. Burns and the club officials had an agreement to divide the remainder after $500 was deducted for ex- penses, so each drew down $508.13. Owen Moran, the English fighter, and Jack White, the clever Chicago boxer, who re- cently defeated Frankie Conley in a contest at Vernon, Cal.,; were matched today by Tom McCarey to meet in a 20-round bout at the latter place on the afternoon of June 8. According to the articles of agreement, the men will meet at 128 pounds, weigh in at 10 a. m, Kilbane Meets Dundee, Johnny Kilbane’s next appearance in New York will probably be with Johnny Dundee, the sturdy and clever little West Side fighter. Immediately after the bout betweep Kilbane and Frankie Burns, the officials of the St. Nicholas A. CC. opened negotiations for a con- test between the lads to be decided on the night of June 4. If the match is clinched Kilbane and. Dundee will probably battle at 122 pounds, weigh in at 7 p. m. Freddie Welsh, the Eriglish ex-lightweight champion, training at New York, has begun, go that he will be in good shape should he be successful in getting on any bouts at the local clubs. Welsh is anxious to meet Matt Wells, who won the championship title from him in a 90-round bout at the National Sport- ing Club of London, Feb. 27, 1911, King Meets Farmer Tonight. Kid Farmer of Peoria will box Johnny King of Chicago at Granite City tonight. King is considered a good scrapper, while Farmer is a veteran of more than 200 fights.

TOO EARLY TO QUIT. ) & edie’ tear up your tickets on the Athletien yet. There's a bare pos- sibility that history will repeat itself. Last year, on May 2, the world’s cham- pions were in fifth place, precisely where théy were Friday morning. At that time Detroit had an even more commanding lead in the League race than the White Sox own today. Detroit at about that time stood 22 games won and but three lost. But did you pipe who was first past the post? = * THE SAME THING OVER AGAIN. a” fact, Were Detroit on its stride early in the American League scramble, the race this season would bear a marvelous resemblance to that of last year. The same clubs, Detroit excepted, which were making the run- ning early last season are in the van now, namely the White Sox, the Red Sox and Washington. Chicago and Bos- ton clung to second and third positions until about the middle of June. Wash- ington blew the works early in May, and the Browns—but why dwell on tragedies. ee es @ MISFORTUNES CRIPPLED THESE. HE only real out-of-line performers in the Johnson organization this season are the Yankees and the Tigers. New York’s failure is, of course, ap- parent, the team having lost, at least for a time, many of its stars. As for the Tigers, Crawford's failure to hit, Cobb’s late start and the backwardness of the team’s pitchers explains the Jennings. machine collapse. . . BATTERS’ EYES STILL DMM. i belated coming of warm weather has kept many batters and pitchers back. Detroit, if Cobb’s suspension is brief, and New York can’t grow much worse and will beyond any doubt grow stronger as the season advances. At the same time, Washington and the White Sox, now owning a nurthber of batters who are hitting out of line, are due to weaken. The Red Sox may stand up, but that pitching staff doesn’t seem to be any stronger than formerly, It’s UP TO COMBS, EITHER of the leading teams of this year seems as formidable as did the runaway Tiger club of 1911. Therefore, the Athletics have an easier, not a harder, task to perform than last season. To the old heads that travel the circuit, the Athletics’ success this year appears mere- ly a matter of whether Jack Coombs’ injury is permanent, If it is, the team is gure to miss his 25 or so annual victories, = e WHERE DO YOU GET IT, JACK? HEY wouldn’t believe in the Cardinals last year around the eircuit. They think still less of them this season out of town. Catch the drift of this tid-bit from the mill of Jack Ryder, in the Cincinnati Enquirer: The Bostons are a far better club than they were last year. Full of heavy hit- ters, the line-up is a terror to the oppos- ing slabbers, and it will always take the best of pitching to stop them. Vincent Campbell had added speed on the bases and is fielding and hitting well. Arthur Deviin is taking hold of the shortstop job ably, and Eddie McDonald is a cork- ing good third sacker. The team looks certain to beat out both St. Louis and Brooklyn in the League race, and will cause trouble at times for some of the . Jeaders. Now, wouldn’t that shake your founda- tions? And it comes just after the Cards trimmed the Boston out of every game in the series and has already won three straight from Brooklyn, making six successive vic- tories, . . . AS PER LAST SEASON. E careful, Steinlanders! Roger will come and getcha yet. He’s some Bogey man. when he gets under way. One little look at the figures last season will reveal that the Cards are running ex- actly to form. For instance: Both last season and this year the team jumped out in the lead the very first week and looked like a bunch of world-beaters. The first week in May of both years found the team in last place, due to ® slump and injuries to players. May 15, 1911, the Cardinals had climbed to sixth position. On May 14, 1912, a victory over Brooklyn sent the club into sixth place. June 1, 1911, the Cardinals climbed to fifth place; in 1912 they attained that position May 15. Thug the Cardinals are really in a bet- ter position today than at this time last season, When one adds to this that Bres- naban and the hard-hitting Evang have yet to return to the game, and that Bob Harmon's strained back has not yet re- covered, it’s hard to figure the team fail- ing to rise to first division, notwithstand- ing the lowly Cincinnati estimate, when ite full strength is in the game. * a .
