She said she has received promises from neighbors, that they will testify that Mrs. Lauderbach is one of the tidi- est women they ever knew. She was a pattern of neatness when she discussed her husband’s divorce petition. “It is ridiculous to say that I was ever untidy, or that I threw my clothes away rather than mend them. Why, I was so careful about keeping up with the family mending that my husband’s its would make him rich some day. “TI never threw until it was ready for the rag bag, | and I was always neat in my dress.” Dentes She Was Careased. In his petition Lauterbach charges that his wife once permitted a man. to caress her. “That is another absurd charge,” said Mrs. Lauterbach “Ed and I visited the home of my cousin one evening. In bidding me good by as we were leaving my cousin’s husband laid his hand on my shoulder. He had known me for years and there was no harm in it. When we got home Ed was furious. He was always unreasonably jealous. “His club friends were angry be- cause he did not devote most of his time to them after his marriage, and they used to circulate stories about me.” Lauterbach also complains that on one occasion his wife embarrassed him. by laughing immoderately on a street car. - “We were coming home from a dance. There were several couples in the party and we all laughed. I am naturally of a jolly disposition and I can't. help laughing at funny jokes or, stories. I had no idea innocent laughter _would ever be made a ground for divorce. Greatly Surprised at Suit. “I was greatly surprised when I heard Ed had filed suit. Only last Tuesday I met him on the street and he told me he was willing to become reconciled. “In the year and seven months of our married life we lived with his parents. In that period he worked only about five months. His father finally ordered. him from the house.” Mrs. Lauterbach says she will not fille a cross-bill, as she does not want a di- vorce. She has engaged Koenig & Koe- nig, attorneys, to draw up an answer to her husband’s charges. STABS SELF TO DEATH ON OPERATING TABLE Patient Snatches Scalpel and Scissors From Surgeon’s Hand.

Mourters gathered about the coffin of Louis Lorpresti’s day-old son at 826 North Eighth street were thrown into a fright Saturday afternoon when lace mother used to tell him my saving hab-‘ curtains in the room of death caught fire from the funeral candles. The prompt action of women occupants , of the tenement in which many fanilies have, prevented a serious fire. The baby’s mother was.in bed in an adjoining room.

Men filled ‘the buckets for the women and stood ready to rescue the occupants of the house and the mother if it should become necessary.

PASTOR-HUSBAND LIVES TWO LIVES, WIFE ASSERTS College President Accused . of Preaching Simplicity and Prac- ticing Gaiety.

ONCE PLAYED DOMINOES He Sues for Divorce and Wife Causes His Arrest on Abandonment Charge.

While the Rev. William P. Sachs, president of Walther College, a Lu- theran school at 2051 Park avenue, was surrendering to the Sheriff Saturday on a warrant charging him with wife abandonment, Mrs. Sachs Was scrubbing the front steps of her mother’s home at 3443 South Jeffer- Son avenue. } The husband filed a divorce suit and the wife swore out an abandon- ment warrant about the same time Friday afternoon. Sachs is living with his daughters, Ruth, 17, and Naomi, 14, at 3833 Utah place. Sachs, after a conference with his attornev, Taylor R. Young, went with Young to the Sheriff's office, where he gave a $200 bond which assured him against arrest. The bond is re- turnable in the Court of Criminal Correction next Wednesday, when a time for his trial will be set and a new bond will be given. When a reporter inquired for the col- lege president’s wife at the Jefferson avenue address the woman who knelt on the front steps arose, wiped the soap- suds from her arms, pushed back her sunbonnet and said: *“*‘Mrs. Sachs is scrubbing the steps.’’ Then she told of what she said was the strange dual nature of her preacher- husband and how their conflicting views of life had caused them to separate after living together 18 years. Preached Simple Life. “There was a wide difference between my husband’s preaching and his prac- tice,”’ she said. ‘When I first met him he -was conducting a mission service at Anchor Hall, Jefferson and Park av- enues, and I was the organist and Sun- day s¢chool teacher. He was a wonderful I fell in love with him almost ‘From his sermons I believed that he was unworldly and a disciple of the simple life, as I was and am. But after our marriage I found he had a dual na- ture. Though always preaching sim- plicity and the humbler virtues he was at heart fond of society and gaiety. Played Dominoes, “One night he went to the home of a frisnd and remained there until 3 o’clock in the morning. I telephoned the man at whose home he was visiting and he said he and my husband were playing Gominoes. I considered it wrong for a minister to sit up so late playing a game like that. “When our daughters began to grew up he encouraged them in their taste for luxury and bought them expensive clothes and jewelry such as I did not think a minister’s daughters should wear. *“‘His encouragement of our daughters {mn their extravagances alienated their af- fections from me. Charges He Was Impractical. “My husband was most impractical and visionary. He Kept plunging deeper and déeper into debt until a month ago I saw that it would be necessary for us to*‘come here and live with my mother, Mrs. Mary Buchanan. He con- sented to this arrangement. “We drew up and signed a written agreement by which I was to have complete charge of the family finances. I submitted this agreement to Justice Spies, who approved it. “Before we had a chancs to move toa my- mother’s home constables went to our home at 3654 Shaw avenue and seized our books, pictures and most of the furniture. “My husband and daughters went away. I did not know where they lived until I asked a man who came to move the telephone. Since then I have not been able to see my daughters. “Last Christmas when I was visiting relatives in New Orleans I sent the girls a Christmas box. It was sent back to ms with a note from my husband saying the daughters did not want any- thing from me. In his petition Sachs alleges that his wife threatened to kill him and told her children that she would carry out this threat but for fear of the consequences. Throughout their married life, he says, she insisted that they live with her relatives. Alleges Wife Abused Him. Sachs charges that his wife's mother and members of her family abused him and called him “hog, beast and tyrant.’ When he was ill in December, 1901, he alleges, his wife refused to take care of him, = hired a nurse, whom she in- struct not to wear - sat eal herself out nurs In August, 1902, he Says, he receivei an offer of a good position, but his wite instructed her brother to tell the per- sons offering him the Places that he was {i amd unable to fl) it. Sachs alleges that on Nov. 2%, 1911, his wife mys-eri- ously disappeared from home and did not return until last January. Whea he asked her where she had been, he chargss, she struck him with an um- brella. July 30 last, he asserts, his wife and her mother Ordered him from the him to leave

— TS. NOONAN PAYS 31 FOR AUTO PARTS WORTH $85; HELD Youth Who Recently Risked $300,000 Inheritance to Wed, in Holdover All Night.

TELLS OF HIS PURCHASE Asserts Negro Sold Articles in Shed and He Simply Snapped Up a Bargain.

Thomas S. Noonan, who, a year ago risked the loss of a $300,000 inheritance to marry the girl he loved, is in the police holdover at the Deer Street Sta- ‘tion, while an investigation as to how he came into possession of an auto- mobile wheel, a tire and a set of ball bearings which he says he bought for $1. Their value is said to be $85. Noonan is a son of Mrs, Josephine Noonan, widow of Thomas S. Noonan, &@ wealthy real estate dealer. He is 23 years old and lives with his wife and baby at 3386 North Sarah street. When arrested by Patrolman Duncan Friday night Noonan was at the steer- ing wheel of his -horsepower touring car. The wheel, tire and bearings were in the tonneau. Arrested as He Drove Away. Duncan several hours before had seen the articles in an unused shed at 4568 Morgan street. Suspecting that they might have been stolen, he watched the shed. At 8:15 Noonan drove up in his car, took the articles from the shed and put them in his machine. He was driv- ing away when Duncan stopped him. Noonan was Kept a prisoner all night in the holdover. ; “I just picked up a bargain when it was offered to me,” he said Satur- day. “Yesterday afternoon I was at a gasoline supply station at Walton: and Washington avenues when a negro approached me and asked if I] wanted to buy some auto dccessories cheap. “He took me to the shed and show- ed me the things. He said he would sell them.to me for $1. I. patd the mondy to him and hecadvised me not to come after the things until dark. He may have stolen them. I don’t know. I merely bought a bargain and didn’t mean to do wrong.” Was in an Auto Wreck. Noonan has. seveygal times been ar- rested for automobile speeding, and about a year ago was in a serious wreck when joy riding. In January, 1911, he eloped with Miss Ella Callahan of 3912 North Market street, despite a clause in his father's will disinheriting him in case he should marry before he was 24. After the mar- riage his mother forgave him. The other heirs waived the disinheritance clause and he obtained his share of the estate. LOCAL SHOWERS ARE PREDICTED THE TEMPERATURES,

SEASON RECORD FOR HOGS

9.9 feet; a rise

Hog price records for the year were again broken at the National Stock Yards, East St. Louis, Saturday, when $8.95 a hundred pounds was paid to R. Andrews of Vermont, IIL, for 68 hogs, averaging 25 pounds. C. M. Keys & Co. bought the hogs for the East Side Packing Co. The highest price ever paid for hogs at the National Stock Yards was $11.15 in April, 1910. The yards have a capac- ity of 30,000 hogs a day. That hogs are scarce is shown by the receipts for the week, which were only 27,000, although the market here was higher than at com- peting points. “Now, Willie, who} s

MAJOR BEECHAM B.RAY znd CHARLES P. TAFT.

President’s Nominee for Dep- uty Paymaster-General, Native Missourian, Also Said to Have Been Charged Four Times With Serious Offenses and Never Vin- dicated.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 24.—The House Committee on War Department ex- penditures today reported that Maj. Beecher B. Ray, U. S. A., whom the President yesterday nominated to be Deputy Papmaster-General of the Army, had been engaged in political activity, particularly in the interest of President Taft; had been four times charged with serious offenses, never vindicated, and had never been disciplined more severely than by 4 r »primand. President Taft nominated Maj. Ray, to be Deputy Paymaster-General, with the rank of Lieutenant-Colonel. Maj. Ray’s alleged political activity in 1908 and other of his acts while in the army had been the subject of congressional investigation. Maj. Ray is in direct line for promo- tion under the law. President Taft long has delayed his nomination, awaiting a report, of the Congressional Committee hearing charges against him. After conferences, the President and Secretary Stimson determined to send the nomi- nation and leave its disposition to the Senate. * Important Papers Concealed. The investigation of Maj..Ray’s case attracted wide attention because of the Investigating Committee's charges that Secretary Stimson was withholding im- portant papers bearing upon it. It is be- lieved the committee’s report was has- lened by President Taft’s nomination of Maj. Ray for promotion yesterday. That a fight will be made in the Sen- ate has been announced. The committee findings, in part, follow: “Maj. Ray ‘has been engaged in polit- ical activity in the interest of the Repub- lican party and particularly in the inter- est of the President. “In connection with one of the charges Ray, © courtmartial proceedings were stopped by a cable- gram from the Chief of Staff, without apparent reason. The papers in the case were withheld from the office of the Ad- jutant-General, where they should have heen filed, and were stored away in a ‘se- cret place where they were not pro- duced when called for by order of ‘the Secretary of War. Has Been Favored. ‘Maj. Ray has been shown more per- sonal consideration in assignment of sta- tions than any other paymaster in the army, has been stationed in Chicago during every presidential campaign since he has been in the service and was sent there last winter by an order originat- irig from the White House. “The committee believes that pub- lic attention ought to be called to this case, because if one army offi- cer ts allowed favors and immunity as a result’ of political services, or influence, it must be a pernicious example to al) officers, If such prac- tices prevail at all, it is hard to see how the army can resist being drawn more and more into politics and be- coming a political machine. “The committee states its findings without intending disrespect to the President of the United States and in the hope that he may see fit to make public such explanation of the circumstances set forth as will as- sure the ‘count Continues, om Page 3 Columa 6,

ONVINCING PROOF THAT AMERICAN-MADE GOODS ARE SOLD MUCH CHEAPER ABROAD THAN AT HOME BILLION SAVING A _ YEAR IF AMERICANS GOT EXPORT PRICES ao Teniff Reform Committee Completes Investigation of i '_. Discrimination Practiced by Protected Manufactur- ers in Selling Abroad Cheaper Than to Customers in United States—Foreigner Can Generally Buy Amer- ican Made Goods for 15 Per Cent Less and Some- times for Half, but Cost to Him Is Carefully Guarded Since Earlier Exposures of System. ————— By BYRON W. HOLT. (Chairman of the Tariff Reform Committee of the Reform Club.) Tariff favored American manufacturers and tariff fostered trusts, “eelling their products abroad cheaper than they do at home, are discrim- ~**"tnating against the American consumer to the extent of not less than ~,..82,000,000,000 a year—$100 every year from every family in the United oe States. _* This is an estimate, but it is a conservative one, and is based upon hg ~ proof brought up to date by a new investigation of aapers prices just € _.eompleted by the Tariff Reform Committee. ‘fhe first exposure of this discrimination against American eonsumers was published by the Tariff Reform Committee in 1890. Then the tariff “weavored manufacturer did not hesitate to boast that he charged more ee for his goods at home than abroad. But in later years, frightened by the © popular uprisings against the protective tariff policy that makes this - extortion possible, he has employed every device to conceal from the _* public the truth about foreign prices for American-made goods. — 8«6To penetrate this underground pas- gage of protection, the Tariff Reform |.

Quite naturally the protected ar : are not knowingly and advertising the fact that they Democratic Committee, offering to help it secure export prices. As he gave the best of references, the Democratic Committee jecured his services and. with him in’ charge, opened up a dum- my mercantile house in South Africa for which he became the New Yori agent. In this capacity he called upon leading exporting manufacturers and obtained their export catalogues, which were not 80 carefully guarded then as they have been since their contents, together with data from the Price Cur- rent Discount Sheet, were published in the Congressional Campaign Handbook of 1902. Discounts Now Concealed. It should be noted here that of the hundreds of prices, discriminatins against the American consumer, pub- lished in the 1902 handbook, only two were ever questioned by the manufac- turers. In both of these instances the handbook figures were shown to be cor- rect. The Price Current Discount Shect is still sent abroad by the Exporters’ and Importers’ Journal, but the dis- counts. on the most important articles are no longer given. In place of the discriminatory figures have been sub- stituted in the discount column the words, “ON APPLICATION.” But even In 192 export discount se- crets were not always easy to unearth. The “export agent’ of the Democratic Committee frequently was unable, even after numerous visits and letters, to se- cure the desired prices. He learned, however, many tricks of the export trade that enhanced his usefulness when the Tariff Reform Committee en- gaged him to make this year’s investi- gation. The prices he obtained for export to Newfoundland are not necessarily the lowest prices that American man- ufacturers would give to more im- portant foreign markets. They are, however, far enough below the domes- tic prices te make a strong indict- ment against the two-price system misnamed “protection.” The prices quoted obtain generally for the ex- port trade, in which there is keen competition. Nearly all important American manufacturers are reaching out for the foreign market. Most of them publish two catalogues, one for the home and the other for the ex- port trade. Some use the same cata- logue, and in the one furnished to export buyers they insert a confi- dential Mat of discounts, lewer than the customary discounts offered to the home trade. Others quote one set of prices in their home catalogue and lower prices on the identical arti- cles in their foreign catalogue. Comparison Made Difficult. Hundreds of catalogues, export dis- count sheets and letters containing export prices have fallen into the hands of our Sherlock Holmes “ex- port agent” while he has been look- ing for goods to “export to New- foundiand.” But ali the tricks ans Gevices his inventive brain could conjure up were unable to pry out the secrets of some of the most notorious competitors for the export trade. Nor has it always been easy for him to obtain the corresponding Gomestic. prices, as many manufac- turers have different names and num- bers on goods intended for export and for home consumption, thus making just comparisons of home and foreign prices the more difficult. The greatest care has been exercised in making these comparisons in order that corresponding prices only shall be quoted. The prices that will be given in this and succeeding articies, both export and domestic, will. be the wholesale prices with trade discounts deducted. It oe te all the time selling their goods + rood to foreigners than to Americans. @ publication of this fact heretofore B gone a long way toward spoiling the . game, and the biggest bene- of protection—the manufactur- not the laboring men—have real- that they could maintain the impo- “} @ition only so long as they succeeded = in keeping a majority of the people -} fooled. The worst offenders as to ex- “port prices have therefore become the “Most expert in concealing the facts. ’ For instance, so well does the United ‘States Steel Corporation cover up ‘ts ‘tracks as to export prices, that it is mbtful if many of its own officials know or care to sit down and out accurately the differences be- nh export and domestic prices on & plate, wire nalis, varb wire, plates, ete.

Consequently the dif- ference in price here quoted will only approximate the actual discrimination against the American consumer. The difference in retail prices at home and abroad will generally be even greater than is shown in the comparisons of wholesale quotations. Basis of Estimates. The estimate is not less than §$2,000,- 000,000 as the annual toll of “protection” | is obtained by considering the difference between export and domestic prices of our manufactured products. Our exports of manufactured pro- ducts last year (fiscal year 1912) ex- ceeded $1,000,000,000. The evidence at hand—much of which will be pre- sented in this series of articles, and more in the Tariff Reform Commit- tee’s forthcoming handbook on export prices—shows that a very large pro- portion, if not the bulk, of these ex- ported goods are sold abroad for lewer prices than are obtained in our own protected market. The aver- age difference is probably 15 per cent. In some of the highly protected man- ufactures the export prices quoted to our “agent for Newfoundland” were as much as double (100 per cent high- er than) the domestic prices. As nearly all classes of manufac- tures are exported*and, as Charles M. Schwab testified in 1901, nearly every- thing is sold cheaper for export, this average difference of about 15 per cent between export and home prices for our manufactured products af- fords a fair measure of the minimum of our tariff tax. For it goes with- out saying that if our manufactur- ers can in one year sell a Dillion dollars’ worth of their products for export for $130,000,000 less than they are getting for the same quantity of similar goods in our market we would, if there were no protective tariff? between us and foreign prices, be able to save about $2,000,000,000 a year on our estimated home con- sumption ef $138,000,000,000. This estimate of home consumption is derived from the census figures of $20,000,000,000 as the value of our manufactured products in 1909. De- ducting $1,000,000,000 exported, we have left §19,000,000,.000 for home consumption; but this total repre- sents a considerable duplication of products in various stages of manu- facture, so that a fair estimate of our total home consumption is §18,- 000,000,000, Proves the Case Again. The average ad valorem duty on Auti- able imports last year was about 42 per cent. While it is more than probable that half of this rate, or 21 per cent, is effective, yet jf domestic prices are increased by only one-third of this rate, or 14 per cent, the tariff tax on mani- factured goods alone is over $1,800,000,000 at wholesale. At retail this tax will much exceed $2,000,000,000. That this estimate of our tariff tax ia not excessive can be shown in many ways. For instance, this rate of 14 per cent does not half cover the difference between the cost of living in England and in this country, as ascertained by the British Board of Trade in 199. Think what $2,000,000,000 a year means! It means a saving of over $19 a year per family on manufactured goods alos. The tariff tax on other goods wi!! tn- ereass this amount by 820 or §% a fam- fiy. It means $100 a year per family of teriff tribute to our protection fetish.

The Manufacturers’ Argument. Some of the Republican politicians still repeat the parrot cry that our man- vfactured goods are sold for export without profit and in order to keep our mills running continuously—all for the benefit of the American workingm:2nr, of course. Ignoring the fact that, as shown by recent investigations, a very large pro- portion of the employes in our steel, textile, sugar and otrer protected mills are not American citizens at all and are working for miserably low wages, is it not absurd to suppose that our manu- facturers would export a billion dollars’ worth of goods a year at a loss and that their exports would be growing at the rate of much more than 100 per cent a decade? Why, if this export business is so unprofitable, do the protected manufac- turers scramble madly for the export trade? Our “export agent’ found him- self deluged with “follow up” letters of export sales managers anxious to sell their goods at 10 to ® per cent cheaper than they could be bought at whole- Sale in this country. Here is a sample of such correspondence coming from the sales manager of a large furniture manufacturer, whose output is protected by a duty of 4 per cent, and who sells abroad 2 to 2% per cent cheaper than he does at home: Seeking Export Trade.

Yet if you grant my request, I assure you that your courtesy will be all the more greatly appreciated on that account. I wish you would tell me, tn con- fidence, why our company has not received your order for some of the, goods since sending you our cata- logue some Yme ago. Is it bec@uec you have not yet defi- nitely decided to place an order? Is it because the goods as described and illustrated do not seem to meet your exact requirements? Or is it some other seemingly good and sufficient reason which you will frankly tell me? As our apparent failure te get in touch with your needs isa matter of keen regret to me personally, I sitn- cerely trust you will give me a can- | | PROTECTED BY DUTY OF 40% did reply, for the courtesy of which I thank you in advance. Very truly yours, , Sales Manager. We think it safe to assume that our protected American manufacturers, selling $1,000,000,000 worth of goods abroad in a year, are neither, fools nor philanthropjsts. For we have evidence from “the protected manu- facturers themselves that their export business is done at a profit rather than at the loss so many of them pretend they suffer whenever they are accused of discriminating against the American consumer. At a hearing before the Senate Fi- nance Committee on Feb. 7, 1912, Senator Simmons asked: “As a matter of fact the object of exporting is to make money, is it not?” J. D. Frederick, representing the Kokomo Steel and Wire Co. of Ko- komo, Ind., replied: “The object of exporting is to make money, of course.” “Then you think it (barbed wire) can be made as cheaply in this coun- try as it can anywhere else; but it is not sold as cheaply in this country as elsewhere. You think the tariff is the cause of that difference in the price here and elsewhere?” asked Senator Simmons. “It will enable them to get higher prices; there ts no question about it,” Mr. Frederick replied. “Otherwise the tariff is not a protective measure.” No Benefit to Labor. From no point of view, except that of our thousands of protected million- aires, can the sale of manufactured good for export at lower than home prices be justified. There ix no com- pensating benefit to labor when goods are sold at higher prices in the home market, for in order to maintain these higher prices production must be re- stricted.. If lower prices for export are indulged tn in order to keep our mills running for the sole benefit of labor, why do our philanthropic man- ufacturergs not try reduced prices at home for the same reasons? Why did our manufacturers stop selling their goods at low prices in Hawali and Porto Rico after these islands became a part of the United States? Is it not always true, as Charles M. Schwab testified in 1908, that our manufac- turers “usually charge abroad what we can get,” and that they also do the same at home? Consequently, while it was considered good policy to sell goods cheap to Hawalians and Porto Ricans in order to keep our mills runing when they were outside of our tariff walls, it became very bad policy not to charge Hawaiians and Porto Ricans all the traffic would bear when these islands were inside of our tariff walls. The “keep-the mills-running” argu- ment always loses its force when ap- plied to our own consumers, whose hands are tied by the tariff and who are therefore at the merey of our un- grateful protected trusts, Is not a tariff system that permits of these export-price evils one of perfidy and dishonor? Does not this abuse of pro- tection expose the fallacies of the pro- tective system? Fire Kills Carnival Antmala.

WASHINGTON, Aug .244.—The Adams and American Express companies in- dicted for violations of the interstate commerce act, must gototrial. There is no escape through pleadings that they are not corporations or companies, with- ih the meaning of the law. That, in effect, was the decision of Tederal Judge Hazel at Buffalo, in an opinion today in the case begun by the Interstate Commerce Commission against the two companies alleging over- charge and granting unlawful conces- sion. Recently Judge Hollister, in the United States District Court at Cincinnati or- dered a similar indictment against the Adams company quashed, because, he held, the company, being merely a stock association and not a corporation, could not be indicted. He held that it would be neecssary for the Interstate Com- merce Commission to cause the indict- ment of individual stockholders in order to maintain a case in court. The com- mission realized that such a proceeding would be impractical. Judge Hazel held that the indictments brought at Buffalo were sound because in law the express companies are legal entities and indictable as such, under the interstate commerce act. The com- mission will press the case. ¢ |Ray Too, Active in Politics, House Committee Asserts Continued From Page One. not being used for political poses,” The report declared the Secretary of War had determined that the com- mittee should not see certain papers bearing on the case, said to have been found in the office of Gen. Ed- wards, head of the Insular Bureau, on Feb. 17. In the charges, relating to the wife of an employe of the War Depart- ment, on account of which Maj. Ray was severely reprimanded, the com- mittee concluded there was ample justification for not proceeding with the courtmartial, as the employe who complained effected a reconciliation with his wife and refused to press the charge, Maj. Ray a Missourian, Maj. Ray was born in La Plata, Mo., Oct. 11, 1859. He has been active in IIi- nois politics for years, and is a rail- road man of vast experience, having been secretary of the Illinois Railroad and Warehouse Commission. He was married Dec. 9, 1884, to Miss Fannie Plant of Boonville, Mo. He ts the own- er of three fine farms near Kansas City. He entered the army May 21, 1896, af.er having served under M. A. Hanna in rounding up the trainmen’s vote in 1896. Brigadier-General C. H. Whipple, re- tiring paymaster of the army, told the House committee investigating Ray’s political activity, Feb. 10 last, that charges of conduct unbecoming a gentle- man and an oficer against Maj. Ray had been suppressed at the suggestion of President Taft. Available to Committee, Under date of July 14, 1911, Presi- dent Taft wrote tv Gen. Whipple regarding omission of two or three pages of a War Department report called for by a House resolution, and in the letter Taft said: “The part of the record omitted refers to a charge against Maj. Beecher B. Ray of illicit relations with a certain married woman, in respect to which I was consulted by you. *.° *% I saw Mr. Sweat in New Haven and told him that deprecated its being brought out, as I thought it would tend to blast the reputation of a married woman who, as I understand, was living happily with her husband.” The President declared he wished that the whole record would go to the committee if the committee de- sired it. At the time of the ifivestigation, Ray, in Chicago, declared: ‘“‘The pub- lic will. be astonished when they hear how I have been pursued.” In a letter to Paymaster-Genera! Whipple, marked ‘“Persorfal and Confi- dential,”” President Taft wrote July 6, 1910: ‘Maj. Ray did me some service of a political character years ago, at the instance of my brother (Charles Pp.

VANDERBILTS GIVE DANCE IN ORIENTAL HALL AT NEWPORT Ballroom Built for Occasion Re- flects the Light and Color of the East. NEWPORT, R. I., Aug. 24.—An Ort- ental city glowed on the spacious grounds of “Beaulieu,” the summer home of Mr. and Mrs. Cornelius Van- derbilt, who gave what. was said to be one of the most elaborate private enter- tainments éver known even in this sum- mer colony. On the cliff overlooking the bay had been erected’ a ballroom, 100 feet long and 90 feet wide. The trees and plants of the surrounding grounds were out- lined with tiny electric bulbs of warm colors. Guests brilliantly dressed paced the splendid Oriental domes and long row of tropical plants into a room whére paintings, luxurious divans and the fur- nishing generally gave the scene the atmosphere of the East. The entertainment began with the presentation of a new musical comedy by a. company from New York. Then there were four quadrilles. The first, representing the four seasons, was given by young society women in appropriate costumes. A Persian quadrille came next. There was a gypsy quadrille, in which members of the Russian, German and Mexican embassies participated with Newport society women, including Countess Szechenyi, who was Miss Gladys Vanderbilt before her marriage. A Russian quadrille was led by Mrs. Cornelius Vanderbilt and Henri de Bach, secretary of the Russian embassy. Fol- lowing the quadrilles there was supper for 400 guests; after which came a co- tillon, led by Elisha Dyer of New York and Mrs. Vanderbilt on one end and by Craig Wadsworth and Mrs. Nicholas Longworth on the other.

And I cannot too strongly denounce the baseness of making such an attack upon an honest man who is now dead and whom Mr. Archbold never ventured to assail while living. “Moreover, Mr. Archbold shows per- fectly clearly, as published reports say, that his corporation had contributed in order to get value for its gift and that the gift was made with the expectation of receiving a proper consideration. ‘I do not for one moment believe that Mr. Bliss made any such remarks to Mr. Archbold, as Mr. Archbold says. For example Mr. Archbold states that he and the late H. H. Rogers visited me at the White House and that I then remarked to them that there had been some criti- isms about campaign contributions. This is a falsehood. Neither on that occa- sion or on any other one was one word said either by me to Mr. Archbold or by Mr. Archbold to me about campaign con- tributions. *“‘Moreover, let it be remembered that long before the campaign of 1904 I had had a sharp run-in with the Standard Oil, and had shown them just what they could expect from me. This was when we were passing the Bureau of Corporations act. I found out that the Standard Oil people were opposing the passage of the act; that two of the rep- resentatives had come down to Washing- ton to oppose it, and that they had sent telegrams to various Senators and Rep- resentatives against it. I got hold of these telegrams, published some of them and forced the bill through. Likens It to Frameup. “Tt seems that the course of Mr. Pen- rose in this matter and the bringing in of Mr. Archbold to testify bear close analogies to what in the New York po- lice situation at this time would be called a ‘frameup;' and this is shown by the questions which Mr. Archbold is asked and those he is not asked.’’ The Colonel reiterated his frequently made denial that he ever knew of the Standard Oil contrébution, except as a rumor, and again quoted his letter and telegram to Cortelyou, written when he heard the rumor, demanding the return of the Standard Oil's $100,000. He insisted this letter and telegram were sent in ab- solute good faith. He interprets Archbold’s testimony about his anxiety that the then Presi- dent should know of and feel grateful for the contribution to clearly prove the money was given through an unworthy motive and in expectation of an unlawful consideration, and winds up with a note of triumph that the whole episode proves that he is the only man of whom the Archbolds and Penroses of national politics are afraid. FLINN SAYS HE’S READY TO TESTIFY candidate for But He Wants ‘Senators Oliver and Penrose to Help Tell About Pennsylvania Politics. PITTSBURG, Pa., Aug. %.—William Flinn said today that he is ready to go to Washington and testify before the Senate committee investigating cam- paign contributions if summoned. “But when I appear I want it to be with Senator Oliver, Senator Penrose and others who know something about campaign collections in Pennsylvania,” he said. Asked what he thought the Senate committee might ask Penrose and Oli- inn said: parr Sejocasho be enlightening to hear what they might tell regarding cam- paign assessments on the liquor people and the other corporate interests in this State in other years. These things have not been told, and they ought to be given to the public.” Alexander P. Moore, publisher of Flinn’s paper. the Leader, wired to Pen- rose suggesting that Penrose have Sen- ator Oliver called upon to testify con- cerning assessments levied n corporations in the Pittsburg dis- ry Moore charges that Senator Oliver and B: F. Jones Jr., head of the Jones & Laughlin Steel Co., collected approxi- mately $100,000 from corporations to be in the Taft primary fight last 1 No denial js made by Jones that his company alone gave $75,000 to the | Taft club.

R. BE CALLED Says Frenzied Cry of “Liar” Will Not Answer the Charges of Archbold. WASHINGTON, Aug. %4.—In reply to the statement of Col. Roosevelt in New York, Senator Penrose said: “Col. Roosevelt's relations with Standard Oil Co. clearly have been established. The Standard Oil Co., through John D. Archbold, contributed $125,000 in the Republican national cam- paign of 1904. Col. Roosevelt did not deem that amount sufficient and de- manded an additional contribution of $150, 000. “In reply to the disclosure of these facts, Col. Roosevelt submits a letter which in police circles would be known as a ‘frame-up’ and an attack upon me personally. The exposure of Col. Roosevelt’s negotiations with the Stand- ard Oil Co. are such that the frenzied ery of “liar’’ will not satisfy the people. John D. Archbold’s statement before the Senate Investigating Committee sub- stantiated every assertion I made on the floor of the Senate on Wednesday re- lating to the Standard Oil Co.’s contri- bution in the campaign of 194. Mr. Archbold appeared before the committee at his own request. Members of that body informed me today that no such request had been received from Col. Roosevelt. “T intend to follow this matter to the end. Mr. Archbold left Washington this afternoon with the understanding that he would again appear before the com- mittee and submit books and other rec- ords bearing upon the Standard Oil Co.’s contribution. I shall insist that all the persons mentioned in my statement in the Senate Wednesday, including Col. Roosevelt, shall be summoned by the committee.’’ ACTRESS SUES STEAM BOAT FIRM FOR $6000 Miss Rose Abbey Says She Was Struck by Missile in Fight Among Deck Hands.

Douglas Shoe Co., 616 Olive street, there is on exhibition all the styles of foot- wear for men that will be worn this fall and winter. From this exhibition it will be seen that there are changes in men’s shoes from time to time just as there is in everything else that they wear. One of the big departures this year is that more button shoes will be worn by men in 1918 than for several years past, and in consequence the patent leather shoe will be seen on the street less, but will retain its function for evening dress. Oxfords for winter wear are going out of fashion, and the high-top shoe is coming back to ita own for all the year round. Tobacco Box Bank Falls.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 24.—With both heuses of Congress today marking time awaiting agreement on a single appropri- ation bill, the adjournment of the sec- ond session of the Sixty-second Congress was assured before sundown. Early today both House and Senate sent the general deficiency appropriation bill to a conference over minor disputes and both settled down to clear the decks for adjournment. The adjournment resolution was drawn in. the House and awaiting the passage of the final appropriation bill before its introduction. Plans were arranged to have President Taft go to the Capitol about mid-after- noon and take up the task of sign- ing the bills passed in the final mo- ments of the Senate. The House took a recess until 4:30 p. m., to await a report of the con« ferees on the general deficiency bill. Murdock’s fight, against the conference report on the postal appropriation bill, providing payment of not more than $35,000 to the Terminal Association of St. Louis for carying mails across Eads Bridge collapsed today when the report was adopted with only Murdock voting against it. This, the leaders say, prac- tically asured adjournment of Congress before night. The House disagreed with the Senate on certain amendments to the general deficiency bill and the bill was sent back for further adjustment. Representatives Cannon, Fitzgerald and Sisson were named as managers for the House. No serious delay was expected. Signa Bill Omitting Tartee Board Provision.

In the absence of Street Commissioner Travilla, Chief Clerk Crutchmar assured the Bull Moosers that every effort would be made to finish a part of the street at least, so that automobiles can drive to the entrance. He said the con- tractor would be asked to devote, himself to the Delmar avenue end of the street, and, if possible, it would be put into condition to be used by Sept. 3. If this cannot be done, the Colonel and his ad- mirers may have to walk over a rough trail to the building. PEARL HUNTERS LUCKY Taft Gems From Mussels Near Alton Bring $110 and $5o.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. WINONA, Miss., Aug. 24.—Swinton Permenter, son of a planter, today was acquitted on a charge of ‘having mur- Gered Janie Sharpe, a pretty 18-year-old girl, who was the belle of the rural hill neighborhood and was found slain in a clump of bushes. It was generally believed that violence would be attempted against Permenter, should he be freed, but there was no demonstration. The verdict was not un- expected and ther¥ was a big guard of armed deputies in the courtroom when the jury made its report. The mother of Permenter was in ou and when the verdict was announced, rushed to her son and took him in her arms. Both wept profusely. Two years ago Miss Sharp was found dead in a pine wood on the edge of her father’s plantation. Permenter, her fi- anee, on his first trial was convicted, but the Supreme Court ordered a new trial. In the meantime Permenter’s familys led by a younger son, Walter, engaged private detectives in an effort to uncoy- er additional evidence bearing on the girl’s death. One of the detectives, Ben Walker, was killed last fall and three weeks ago the brother, Walter Permenter, was found murdered. It was believed the charge from a shotgun which killed Walter Per- menter at his home, was intended for his brother, who was inside of the house at the time. The assassin, who fired from ambush, escaped. The Permenters will move to a distant State, as they fear the whole, family will be assassinated. SICK LAWYER KILLS SELF Former Partner of P, H.

By Assoctated Press. JUAREZ, Mexico, Aug. 24.—Some- where south of Juarez, Pascual Orozco, with 600 followers, is said to be hemmed in by Federal forces, and has small chances for escape. Upon his success or failure in evading capture or death at the hands of the Federal troops, is declared to hinge the success or failure of-organized revolu- tion in Northern Mexico. The purpose of Orozco, if hs can escape from the trap set for him, is to join the main rebel forces already mov- ing toward the west coast, with the ob- ject of securing control of a seaport through which ammunition may be !m- ported, and the revolution continus2d. All but a few of Orozco’s troops have been moved successfully into Sonora: Orozco, in leaving Juarez, miscalculated kis time, and his progress has met with mdny difficulWes. Anticipating his arrival on the coast, Orozco has ordered ammunition shipped Officials here infer that the order issued vesterday from Washington, for the United States gunboat Vicksburg to prvo- ceed from San Diego, Cal., to Guaymas, is in a great measure intended to pre- vent ammunition running there.

Bidwell, who are walking, unattended, from Topeka, Kan., to Washington, D. C., spent Saturday visiting interesting places in St. Louis. They planned trips to Shaw’s Garden, through the exclu- sive residence districts and to points of historic interest. The women are representing a Topeka newspaper on their tramp to the East. Their only source of revenue during the trip is derived from the sale of postal photographs of themselves in walking cotume, They departed from Topeka Aug. 1 and expect to reach Washington about Oct. 1. There is no time limit on their journey, and they are traveling leisurely. “We are taking our time,’ said Mra. Bidwell, “and are seeing all the princi- pal points of interest in the towns we pass through. “I was in St. Louls many years ago when Wentworth place was one of the most exclusive residence sec- tions. I suppose the new residence dis- tricts will be a revelation to me.” There is no Wentworth. place listed in the St. Louis city directory now. Mrs. Bidwell said she and Miss Copp had not been annoyed in the slightest since leaving Topeka. Their trip, so far, has been without unpleasant incident, she said. The trip to Washington was planned as a diversion and without any special ob- such a trip, but both declare they felt well and able to continue their journey.

Teddy’s goat was auctioned off for $2.50 in front of the A. C. Mann Com- mission Co., 714 North Third street) Fri- day. Mann said anybody could have had the goat for 50 cents over in the stockyards. It was called Teddy’s goat because the employes of the commission com- chief around its neck, fastened a labor- er’s.cap on the “antlers” and painted “Bull Moose’ on its right side. Then, to even matters up, someone painted ‘‘Taft’’ on the left side of the goat. When the Bull Moosers tried to rub out the “Taft” they found it wouldn’t erase. The goat was put on top of a big box. Louis Zweibarth, a Bull Mooser, got it and then sold it to I. Gozovitch, who is going to take it to a Hungarian picnic at Ridge’s Grove, Sunday. The goat was restive while being raf- filed and seemed to want to butt some- thing.

Injuries When He Slips and Fajis.

The elder Krumbach attempted to run in front of the auto- mobile, but slipped and fell under the wheels. His right arm’ was fractured and he was injured internally. His advanced age was a factor in causing death, the hospital physician said. The auto truck was drawing a trailer on which was mounted a heavy compressed-air clean- ing machine.

PITTSBURG, Pa., Aug. 24.—War- den John Francies of the Western penitentiary, known as “the convict’s friend,” is having a telephone sys- tem installed throughout the big prison at Riverside. The wires will run, not only through the great buildings,:- but out in the yards and to the front lawns. Francies said today he was doing this to lessen the labors of the men. The prison and grounds cover a large tract of land. The warden says that frequently when a man working at one end of the prison needs a tool, he must walk the entire length of the prison grounds to get it from the tool house, “I’m having the telephones put in to increase the efficiency of my working force,” said Francies. “It is not the intention to install telephones in each cell,, but to get our work going under a better system.” Taft Signs Medicine Label Bill.

Every car ar- riving at the garden added to the crowd, while many came on foot or in automo- ing the trip from the Carondelet district. The pile of rubbish that accumulates at the garden each year is large and when burning it makes a bright fire. In former years it has been burned in the day time, attracting little attention. Numerous telephone calls from per- sons who wanted to know the nature of the blaze were received at Police Head- quarters and the Fire Alarm Office, while the rubbish was burning. A Ser- geant and a Patrolman ran half a mile to turn in a fire alarm, and a lot of men and boys, on reaching the garden, climbed over the walls in the belief that the buildings were on fire. No damage was done to the plants, it was sald at the garden Saturday. GIVES HIMSELF UP, BUT HAS HARD TIME Official Who Surrendered Cuba, on Shortage Charge, Hunts Police on Return. NEW YORK, Aug. 24.—The new fad of giving yourself up to the police has be- come such a rage that New Jersey !s go- ing in for it. First prize goes to Dr. J. Nelson Elliott, Health Officer for Pas- saic for three years, who stepped out with the explanation that he was go- ing to a meeting of the Mosquito Ex- termination League, and didn’t come back. A discrepancy of $1045 was discovered and he was hunted, but the police didn’t get any clew until word came from the Havana, Cuba, police that Elliott had surrendered there. Elliott offered to go back to the United States if they would send him a ticket, which Chief Kendry did. The ship had docked at Brooklyn pier 15 minutes before they arrived. They were much excited, asked for help to find Elliott and then they started back for Passaic. As they stepped off the ferry boat in Jersey City, Elliott greeted them, ex- plained he had been looking for them for about-two hours, and they accepted his apology. in New York Police Want 819,350,000, NEW YORK, Aug. 2%.—Budget esti- mates of the various city departments for 1918 show a large increase in the expense of running the city.

To the man marriageé is incidental, an attribute to worldly success. To such a being as Stephanie this conception is monstrous. “It seemed to her,” says the author, “that he ‘kissed himself in her and his new joy in the evidence of his own powers more than Stephanie.’’ Her whole fem- ininity rebels against such “married partnership.”’ Follows then the tragedy. What her husband cannot offer Stephanie, Law- rence Trent can. Thrown together by Raleigh's constant absence, Stephanie and Trent fight heroicaily against the age-old temptation. But at the fall when their lips have met in their first kiss, Stephanie throws her arms about Trent’s neck, weeping: “You have broken my heart, Cheri, you have broken my heart!” So far as Stephanie is concerned the struggle has been as bitter as the sur- render is complete. “One sometimes imagines it would be easier to continue to love if one promised not to—it is so final, so in the past to make a contract of One’s sensation!” she cries out once in the battle. “She had yet to learn,” says the autbor in an aside “that it takes more power to swerve an American from his straight and narrow path of the mar- ried sanctities than to keep him in it.’ In her woman's heart Mme. Bianchi finds much sympathy for Trent. “It is the woman who is the dare-devil in love always,” she apologizes for him. “The man is bound to remember his standing among men. And if a man will temporize with temptation, who bet- ter than a woman knows what it means and to what it leads.”” And yet in spite of this Mme. Bianchi pauses long enough to hurl such a gibe as: “A woman's reputation is a mirror, cracked after it is but breathed upon by suspicion. And men are @ group of pots and ket- tles, loath to call each other biack. The story ends in the only logical way. After a final fight Raleigh gives up his wife to Trent, finding his compensa- tion in the attainment of the ambitions which have shaped his whole life. “The Sin of Angels” is Mme. Bianchi's only book set in American life. Her opigrammatic style, her brilliancy of ment as to athe proposed application of the doctrine if its advocates should triumph. SBellamy’s fantastic concep- tion of the socialistic state in his ‘Looking Backward,"’ has been a fig- urative thorn in the ‘sides of ‘the seri- cus friends of the Marx propaganda ever since its publication because ene- mies of the cause have taken ammuni- tion from it to “‘shoot the socialistic idea full of holes.”” Bellamy’s concep- tion was chimerical, and, at times, ab- surd. Prof. Spargo endeavors to make a serious presentation of the ideal to- wards which millions are striving. All the probelms, particularly those bear- ing on the relation of the state to the individual and the extent to which the individual’s individuality is to be. lost, if lost at all—which Prof. Spargo does rot admit—are considered from every point of view. His conclusion is that individual effort, genius and talent will not be hampered in the slightest degree, while the comfort, convenience and scale of living of everybody will be changed infinitely for the better. The fate of private property and the status of the family and the remuneration of inbor under the new order are consid- ered exhaustively. The book has been compiled from lec- tures Prof. Spargo has delivered in his collegiate work, and the ideas he ad- vances have received the approval of leading ‘“‘scientific” socialists. Right at this time Prof. Spargo’s book is Frobably more useful to Socialism than any other before the public, not ex- cepting, so far as general Public “‘con- sumptioa” is concerned, the works of Karl Marx himeelf. Socialism was the. oretical, @ mere dream, when Marx wrote. Prof. Spargo’s work represents its materialization. Cuebsch). “THE LITTLE RED HOUSE.” MANDA M.

The Brazilian Coffee Trust, operated by foreign money kings, working outside the control of our National Anti-trust laws, have im- posed a tax upon American Citizens which has raised the price of even the cheapest grade of coffee from 15c¢ to 25c per Ib. During three past years this trust has taken Hundreds of Millions of Dol- lars from the pockets. of American Citizens. a It has given Brazil 85 Millions of Dollars with which to retire her National Bonds. © It has given Brazil 10 Millions of Dollars to pay interest on her bonds. ; ‘ It has given Brazil a “bought and paid for” supply of coffee on hand worth 90 Millions of Dollars and— It has paid millions upon millions of profit into the coffers of the Foreign | Money Kings, and yet the coffee people report a falling off in sales of about © 200 million pounds in the past two years. “@ Why this Heavy Reduction?

The careful dats It involves an inquiry into what a vast aggrega- tion of corporate power, including, perhaps, have agreed to do in this year of grace, 1912. It is immaterial] whether Perkins, the incarna- tion of corporate resource and power in national life, has formally and literally “underwritten” Reosevelt in the manner in which Morgan & Co. or Kuhn-Loeb subscribe to a guaranty. The probability is that Perkins has not committed his program to paper, issued a prospectus, opened sub- scription books or actually syndicated Roosevelt. The great Perkins prospect has not been listed or traded in on the curb. The promising tholdings have not been advertised or loudly hawked about. The “underwriting” of a trust candidate is not done in that way. It is a secret and silent financ- ing, and the half is not told, alas, even in inves- tigations and under oath! But irrespective of the direct outcome of the “un- derwriting” issue before the Senate Committee, the great fact must inevitably be borne in upon the mind of the country that Perkins himself is in effect an underwriting. For what other purpose could Roosevelt have made him fund-raiser and financier of the campaign? Perkins is the personification of that enormous resource which Roosevelt himself described as “the Morgan interests so friendly to us,” plus vast independent interests of Perkins’ own direction. Compared to the breadth, depth and power of the sources for which Perkins directly stands, the late Marcus A. Hanna’s interests were inexten- sive and imsignificant. Hanna headed a grocery concern, and out of it his interests gradually grew into iron and coal and lake shipping indus- tries. He was a mine owner; he was president of the Chapin Mining Co., of the Cleveland Trans- portation Co., of the Cleveland City Railway Co., and the Cleveland Union National Bank; a direc- tor in the Globe Shipping Co., and the Union Pa- cific Railway, to which directorship President Cleveland appointed him. Substantially these rep- resented the breadth of the man financially. His interests were local by contrast to those of Per- kins. Hanna was a growth and an influence of the middle country, though to be sure he exer- cised a sway beyond his immediate sphere. Hanna was not essentially a Wall street man. There was relatively little of Wall street in his system or his composition. When George Walbridge Perkins stands behind Roosevelt and becomes responsible for the financ- ing of his campaign, it is in his substantial ca- pacity of political leader of Big Business, which has reared ten times as high since Hanna’s day. The sponsor of Roosevelt and ex-partner of Morgan is Chairman of the Financial Committee and Director of the International Harvester Trust, Director of the Stee] Trust and of Standard Oil’s own bank, the National City; Chairman of the Board of the Pere Marquette Railroad, and Di- rector in eleven other giant corporations—North- ern Securities, Northern Pacific Railroad, Mar- quette and Bessemer Dock and Navigation Co., C. H. & D. R. R. Co., Cincinnati, New Orleans & Texas Railroad Co., Erie Railroad, Bankers’ Trust Co., Astor Trust Co., German-American In- surance Co., German Alliance Insurance Co., and trustee of the New York Trust Co. What further underwriting could a campaign have? If Perkins is for Roosevelt, what trust can be against him? When imports as in July break all records, the boosting of home prices behind the tariff wall is shown to be overdone. A BULL MOOSE BATTLE HYMN. The picturesque idea of “standing at Armaged- don,” sword in hand, has aroused a Progressive poet, George Sylvester Vierick, to attempt a battle hymn in the manner of Julia Ward Howe’s stirring Civil War lyric. It is styled “The Hymn of Armageddon,” and one line runs: “For he shall free the toilers as Abe Lin- coln freed the slaves.” Socialist poets have been writing battle hymns with that refrain, lo, these many decades, and some of them, such as those by William Morris and Walter Crane, have been full of fire and inspiration. The only trouble was that the tcilers were not aroused, and the ‘“Deliverer” did not appear. But now that the friend of Harriman, Morgan and Perkins shows up, it only needs some bleat- ing verse to complete the job. A ragtime battle hymn would seem to be the most appropriate form. : ° - » 2g The Colonel professes a lack of confidence in Mr. Penrose’s veracity: Public confidence in the Colonel's own veracity has received a few stag- gering blows during the past year. = = , OPEN ATB SOHOOL’S ALUMNI.

To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Does the Park missioner stop to consider that the breathing places in our congested down- town district are not provided for the small chil- dren alone, that the thousands of older people who live in this district, most of them working on the inside all day, in badly ventilated shops ‘and stores, should receive just as much, perhaps more consideration in providing for their health and pleasure.in these small parks? Sreen, is merely a mass of cinders and hard ground, with a few benches scattered here and there. The most thoughtless thing of all is being done now at Carr Park. This park, once a re- freshing breathing place of trees and grass, has become almost half bare. A great many of the Older trees hav been cut down and the younger trees usually die shortly after transplanting; but the thing which I believe is worst is the taking away of the cooling fountain in the center, sur- rounded by grass and benches, and turning it into a granitoid wading pool for the children, which from observation at other parks has struck me as a pretty dirty and unsanitary device. I am glad to see the extension of our play- grounds system; it is a great thing for the chil- dren. - However, the grown-ups should be remem- bered. As much as possible of this valuable gsround shoutd be utilized for the growth of trees, grass and flowers; the children should also be taken care of, but too much of this valuable space should not be unthinkingly turned over to them without consideration on the claims and comfort of the elders. CARR STREET. Brutal Treatment of Horses. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I am living in a neighborhood where there is a lot of delivering done, such as laundry, express, ice, coal, and in fact most every kind, and I get ®0 nervous from seeing the cruelty to horses and mules. I often think what will become of such cruel people when they die? Some of those poor horses go to work as early as 5 o'clock in the morning and work until about 9 at night and I suppose some of them never know what it is to get any water or feed from the time they leave until they returr; in fact some of them do not Icok as though they ever had feed or water from one week until another, they are in such poor con- dition. Now why can't there be a law which will prevent such brutality. A KIND WOMAN. Priggishness in the Library. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Today, one of the hottest this season, I went to the Public Library to exchange a book. JI went in my usual hot summer garb—the shirtwaist. I wasn’t in the reading room five minutes, when I was accosted by a gentleman, who claimed to be the watchman, and was told that I was not per- mitted to be on the premises in shirt sleeves. I wish to state right here, that I have no grievance against this watchman, who acted gentlemanly and evidently according to his orders, but any- way, I was told to either put on a coat (which I had not) or get out.’ Now I ask you in the name of common hot weather sense, why have they such fool rules in our public institutions? I can go to any first-class place in St. Louis during this hot weather in a shirtwaist and no offense is taken. Why not in the Public Library—a hot and poorly ventilated place at best? I was ajurorinacriminal court here lately with one of our most particular judges and was told there, when I made a bluff of putting on my coat that I could leave it off. Why not in the Library? Ien’t this carrying style and manners~a little too far, when the thermometer registers 90 degrees and more above? The joke of this was (as it ap- peared to me) the young man in the reading room, who replaces the books on the shelves, an em- ploye of the Library, was working in shirt sleeves proper, suspenders and all, But then, I am only a taxpayer! payer sweat, is that it? rather—— Make the tax- I must say that I felt SORE, Why the Cars Jerk.

I suppose because they are “full,” Hope this simple answer to still simpler ques- tion relieves him of a great mental strain. S. T. REET CARR, Public Ownership With a String. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Someone has suggested lately that St. Louis oveht to own a subway, Theoretically, perhaps, yes, but hadn’t we better wait till we find out whether we can own a bridge? And will the peo- ple of this fair city ever again try to own any- thing, at least in the way of public utilities? I trow not. Suppose we shéuld dig a subway ditch 30 feet wide and 30 feet deep from Fourth street to Grand avenue only and the pinheads should defeat all efforts to finish it for a period of say 10 years, wouldn’t that be delightful? Oh, no! No more public ownership in our’n. What more do we want? Haven't we got the United Railways and the Terminal Association? ; E. T. M. Equal Justice for Both Sexes. To the Bditor of the Post-Drspatch. The custom of the police in detaining under ar- rest young girls or women found in company of men and boys, during raids on immoral hotels and cisorderly houses, calls attention to a most glar- ing injustice. News accounts of such incidents utually read: “The girls were sent to the police ccurt. The men were released,” What I wish to ask is, why ts every means used to humiliate the unfortunate women thus apprehended, while their male companions in dis- henor are allowed to go their way unexposed? Why make a social outcast of the woman, and unjustly spare the male of the species? Should he not be made to feel his guilt as well as she? It is gratifying to note that steps are being taken to reclaim delinquent young women. That women are setting about to save Tr own sex, forecasts a cleaner moral atmosphere for the fu- ture. Should not the men now step to the front and do as much for their own sex? Would it not be a good idea for some of the numerous olvic ‘'mprovement bodies in the city, to begin a move- uple of the taxicab register would ne school.

Mr. Gray of Indiana: The annual ex- penditures of the United States for the Army and Navy is, in round aumbers, $300,000,000. To comprehend the magni- tude of this vast sum and the appalling waste and loss to the people which it represents, it is only necessary to con- sider some of the services it would give if diverted from the channels of mill- tarism and employed in the arts of peace and civil life. If available for education, it would give $10,000,000 to establish and maintain a great national university three times as great as our largest university. It would give $48,000,000 to establish a new university in each State supported annually by $1,000,000 each. It would give $96,000,000 to establish 100 new public high schoals for each of the states supported annually by $20,- 600 each. It would give_ $24,000,000 to establish five new normal schools for each of the states supported annually by $100,000 each. It would give $24,000,000 to establish five new technological schools for each of the states supported amnually by $100,000 each. It would give $21,000,000 to establish 8) new agricultural schools for each of the states supported annually by $16,000 each. : It would give $48,000,000 to the common school fund, or $1,000,000 annually to the school fund of each of the states. It would give $10,000,000 with which to purchase textbooks for-all pupils in all schools, public and private, in all the states of the Union. : And it would give a quarter of a mil- lion dollars to each of the states an- nually for public libraries. The annual cost to maintain the mili- tary of the world is more than $2,250,- 000,000, a sum which bewilders the hu- man mind and defies comprehension.

One sees them now, despaired and sick, When Hope, persisting in the past, Collapses like a ton of brick, And the bitter truth is out at last, The shouting and the tumult keep A lot of rooters unafraid, But you always find them in a heap When the final standing is displayed They never realize what kind Of ball the local fellows play Until they come out way behind Upon the last and final day. The better way, so we have found, Is not to have a team at all, But on occasion drop around To see them scramble for the ball. It doesn’t matter, anyway,, Nor should it gray a body’s nair, And the happier and better way Is absolutely not to care. TOWELS, ETC. Behold!

It seems that Queen Mary was busy with her morning job of washing dishes in Buckingham Palace one day in the early spring when the King, who was mowing the lawn, notified her that the Duchess of Mar. malade was knocking at their front door. The Queen ran ‘to her boudoir ami slid hastily into what ghe thought was her new shirt waist, then jerked a belt about it and flew to the waiting Duchess. Imagine her on Ta after the caller had gone away to find she had gotten into one of the King’s shirts by mistake, and this shirt, of course, had tails in front and aft just Mke any other shirt. Well, the Queen was go mortified she Gidn't show her face outside the palace kitchen for three weeks. You can imagine her astonishment when she finally ventured out to a flinch party to find every woman present wearing a shirt waist with taille. The Duchess had spread the news that the Queen was introducing the etyle and the fashien had thoughtless Mary knew what awful conse- quences were going to follow that unfor- tunate episode.—Monroe County (Mo.)

Some idea of what life will be like when the individual has his own wire- less tower exactly as he now has his cwn windmill may be gained from the following story of William Waller, who is putting a tower up on his place at Warrensburg, Mo. “Mr. Waller,” says the Warrensburg Star, “is putting in wireless at his home on Ming street, and will soon be ready to gossip with any wireless station with- in a radius of 1500 miles during the day and 3000 miles at night. He has con- structed all of his wireless apparatus with his own hands. The construction of such a station is said not to be a very intricate problem for electricians, but a plant equipped to transmit to any great distance is rather expensive, but by no means prohibitive. Mr. Waller’s plant will cost $600.’’ THE MAN ON HORSEBACK, In Monroe County is @ negro whose ec- centricity is his love for riding a stick horse. He frequently makes trips to Paris, some two miles distant, and makes very good time. He attended the fair last week riding his favorite ‘‘horse,’’ and when a saddle ring was shown he entered and made hig horse cavort and otherwise act up, greatly to the amusement of the spectators. He got the blue ribbon, of course.—-Monroe City News, EXHORTATION, When others laugh, is the time to laugh, Be cheerful amongst your friends; When favors are shown you, do your half; For injuries make amends?

THE POST-DISPATCH DAILY SHORT STORY EYOND the end of the ele- vated road Delaware avenue runs wide and bare along the old river front of Phila- delphia. If you will follow it past the old fish market, past wharves piled high with freight and merchandise, past great merchantmen lying bows-in to the street, their bowsprits running high above your head, past long, low windowless stores leaning at weird angles on their hate age foundations, you will come at length to the great twin wharves of the American Line reaching far out into the stream.

She married Morris, and they built a vig house north of the city—a house that is still standing and is known as “the Jumel Mansion” and that for years was the center of local fashion and gaiety. Then came the Revolutionary war. The colonies broke away from England. Party lines were everywhere sharply ¢rawn. In sections where the patriots were in power the adherents of King George had a hard time. The same rule applied, in inverse ratio, where the Tories were in power. And Mary fell under suspicion as a loyalist. As a result, in the autumn of 1776 she was attainted of treason. Her property was confiscated and she was forced to flee from New York to the safer depths of the Hudson River dis- tricts. Washington, whether by chance or through sentimental memories, used her New York mansion as his headquert- ers. Later, when his army was driven 4 she ever had been.

The Little Courtesies. Y dear young men, don’t neglect the little courtesies of life. I know that the bluff, off-hand, athletic manner is considered the best form nowadays; but the strong- est suffragette of them all appreci- ates good breeding. It’s a little thing to give one’s seat to a lady in the car. It’s a little thing to ask a girl’s per- mission to smoke, even if you know she doesn’t mind. It’s a little thing to put a gulding hand on her arm when the two of you are crossing the street. In fact there are lots of virtues more substantial than politeness. But it is a strange assistance in making life liv- able. Ask Your Escort.

The chief constituents of tea and coffee are a substance called caffein, certain es- sential oils and large quantities of tan- nin. Caffein in small quantity stimulates the brain and the nervous system and helps to dispel fatigue. When taken ’n large quantities and frequently repeat- ed caffein will cause depression. It ig the stimulating effect of coffee that recommends its use to many people. It is well known how coffee will revive a person who is fatigued and exhausted. When taken shortly before retiring it will prevent sleep by virtue of the stim- ulating action of the caffein contained therein. The same is true of the use of toa.

In the case of young children and eertain adult persons the use of tea and coffee acts like mild poison. These beverages should be forbidden to them completely.

Sans Plan to Train in Texss for 1913 Season practicable by Both Local Clubs. By CLARENCE F. LLOYD. It’s still a long way off until report- ing time for the 1913 season, but Presi- dent Hedges of the Browns had fully made up his mind that his players will NOT prepare for the next campaign in St. Louis. He is already casting his eyes about for a stamping ground for his athletes next spring and will prob- ably pick a ‘spot in Texas. Like Roger Bresnahan, the Colonel thought it possible to train the players in St. Louis last March. After stalling around in the cold and snow for four or five days, the men were chucked aboard a Pullman and sent ta Montgom- ery, Ala. Owner Hedges and the Montgomery management are very friendly, but the former has announced that the Browns will not go to that section of the coun- try again next spring. The years that the Browns prepped in the Lone Star State always found them fit when they returned to St. Louis. That's the prin- cipal reason Hedges has picked that place. Stovall Likes Texas, Too. However, the Colonel has not had it al) to say in this respect, but Manager renee See the magnate that T a good place. He visited that place with the Cleveland club severa!) years. Incidentally, it was while on one of these jaunts in the spring of 1910 that Stovall first showed signs of possessing managerial ability. Jim McGuire, then leader of the Naps, and eager to give a recruit a tria) with the first team, put Stovall in charge of the Yannigana. This probably didn't meet Stovall's approval, but once at the things. The “kid” team did even better than the regulars on the barnstorming tour. Among other things was a clean sweep of a three-game series against the Car- dinais in Little Rock, and even with Bres- nahan having a majority of his regulars on duty. That tour probably caused Owner Somers of the Naps to consider Stovall as a prospect should he ever need @ leader. But getting back to the Browns and their training trip. The Colonel has aiso Cecided to have the men report in the last week of February, about a week eariier than usual. «That's because he wants the players in condition for the annual spring series with the Cardinals. Under the terms of the agreement s‘gned by the Colonel and the late Stanley Rebison, the teams were to spread the seven games over three Saturdays and Bundays if possible. This is agreeable, inasmuch as each side is eager to grab the money from the fane who have become hungry for baseball after the long cf season. ‘The exact location of the training camp hasn't been selected, but it wil! Probably be in the neighborhood of Waco or San Antonio, Owner Hedges has always been strong for Ban Antonio, and {f it is pos- sible, he'll probably obtain that piace.
