Nervousness resulting from her failure to pass an examination for the position of teacher in the Protestant Orphans’ Home of Webster Groves was responsi- bie for the death of Mrs. Josephine J. George by carbolic acid poisoning, her friends believe. Acquaintances said Thuisday' she looked strange and srrmed greatly de- rressed on learning she had not qualified for the position. She Was Christian Scientist. She was an ardent Christian Scientisi and her death, Wednesday afternoon, Was surrounded by unusual circum- stances. About 10 p. m. Tuesday she was found in her room suffering from carbolic acid poisoning. It was said at the home, 135 South Elm avenue, Web- ster, that she had mistaken a carbolic acid solution for water in the dark. She had prepared the solution as a remedy for insect bites, it was said, and placed it near her bed on retiring. On the other side of the bed she placed some ice water. The impression given et the house was that she had awakened and drunk the solution instead of the water before she was fully in possession of her faculties. Mrs. George was attended by Dr. Mar- chall Baker, who lives near by, and by Christian Sciencs practitioners, who came in at her request. Dr. Baker said her mouth and throat were terribly burned. Mrs. George's friends believe that in her distravght condition, following her failure in the examination, she swal- lowed the acid by mistake, believing it to be water. Mrs. George was a widow and resided with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Jackson. For the last five years she had taught in a kindergarten for chil- éren of some of the wealthiest residents of Webster Groves. A verdict of acci- dent was returned by the Coroner.

REFUSES TO TARE SHOWER: ATTAGKS Bather, Told of Rule, Breaks | Youth’s Jaw With Mop Handle. Charles Patrick, a lifesaver at the For- est Park Highlands bathing pool, in- sisted on enforcing the management’s rule that all swimmers must take a shower bath before entering the pool and as a result was beaten on the head with a mop handle. His jaw was fractured and his scalp torn. Frank Burch, 27 years old, of 40083A Castleman avenue, was arrested after several witnesses had pointed him out as the assailant. He denied having struck Patrick. The attack occurred about 4 p. m. Wednesday. Patrick was seated on a steol on the pool walk and his back was was about to step into the pool. Patrick told him he: would have to get beneath the shower bath before going into the pool and Burch, according to witnesses, replied that he would do nothing of the kind. Because several deaths have occurred in the poo) as the result of swimmers going into the water while their bodies were in a superheated condition the management has made a rule that all bathers must cool] their bodies in the shower bath before venturing into the pool. According to witnesses, Burch, when told by Patrick that he could not en- ter the pool without first availing him- self of the shower, picked up a mop handle about three feet long and brought it down on Patrick's head with such force that it broke. into three pieces, Bathers fled from the pool upon seeing the assault and before Burch trolman Pine. Among the witnesses were Mrs. J. C. King of 6370 Waterman avenue, Mrs. Blumeyer of 3405 Shenandoah avenue, G.

Me- letio of 4916 Page boulevard, Lyal Swin- bil) of 2607 Sutton avenue, and Harold Sulphy of 5307 Waterman avenue. Patrick, who is 19 years old, and lives at 4519 Clayton avenue, was given emergency treatment on the grounds by Dr. M. E. Sheets of 4359 Clayton ave- ue, who stated his condition was seri- ous. He was then removed to his home. BUCKINGHAM GEMS VANISH Mfs. Carrie Chappell Reports Jewels Worth $400 Lost.

MONEY” She Says He Is Nearly Twice Her Age, Was Taken by Friends to Be Her Father. Basing her complaint principally on two “gushy” and sentimental letters she found in her husband’s coat, Mrs. Lela Schulze. 22 years old, of 4015A Lin- dell boulevard. filed a divorce suit, Thursday, against August B. Schulze, a bank cashier, who, she says, lacks but one year of being ‘twice her age. Schulze, according to his wifa is connected with the Peoples’ Bank of Berger, Franklin County, Mo., but for many years was employed by various banks in St. Louis. Mrs. Schulze re- sides at the Lindell boulevard address with her mother, Mrs. Nan V. Welt- mer. In her petition, which was filed by At- torney C. Porter Johnson, Mrs. Schulze alleges that her husband failed to sup- port her and that he corresponded and associated with other women, in St. Louis and elsewhere. The two letters will be an exhibit In the case, Johnson says. Z aS oe ae Pee oe! Althouch the writer of one letter ad- Gresses Schulze as “Dear old Bebby”’ and “My fat Bebby,” and the writer of the other asks him to exchange photo- craphs with her, Schulze declared they were only “letters of friendship,’’ his wife says. Objects to Terms in Letter. Mrs. Schulze says she vould not agree with her husband that such endearing erms would be applied by a woman to man of his age merely on the ground of friendship. ‘‘He admits he is 48, but he looks lots older, and I believe he is,’” she said to a reporter. “He was a grass widower dand had a daughter 16 years old when LL. married him.’’.. «. ipicagenn Mrs. Schulze Fownll the letters two weeks ago while visiting her husband at Berger. They were a painful revelation to her, she said, although she and her husband had:-lived apart a great deal of the time since their marriage, May 4, 1910. One of the Louis, June 7, lows: “Dear Old Bebby: I was a bit sur- prised at your promptness, and if you keep it up I sure will be crazy about you. My flunky says ‘1 might be crazy, but I am not a d—.fool.’ I'll take to- day off and write to you, for I am all signed out tomorrow—a good time in the country.

Wants “Flat Silk Gauses.” “I know it is lonesome up there, Web, for you, and really your last note made me feel like taking a day off and beating it to Berger and you. I can’t imagine where you live or how far away you are, as the place is not on the map. Your short hours please me very much. That will give you so much more time with me if I get a chance to spend a day with you, which I hope will be soon, “Although it might press you, I will just let you pay the railroad fare, Web. I don’t want that kimona now—bought myself one, But I do want a couple of the flat silk gauzes (Italian silk) pink. They are so swell, The little girl at the house wears them and I am crazy about them. I want them if you don’t mind, Whai say? “Yes, I know how to spell your name, but I don’t want to spell it that way. I guess that will hold you for a while, won't it? “Surely you have been in St. Louis sincé you took that position, but haven't given me a thought. Am 1 right? Mr, Dick has written several] times, but I just can’t see that fellow, and what's more, I hope I will no* be bothered with him this summer. They will surely have to call the trouble wagon if he hangs around here, for I am agoing to put my foot in his face. “Lots ef Love’ From “Nellie.” ‘“Spose you will miss the ball games up there but you can read the score. Well, a good girl is right. I vowed never to walk anything but the straight and harrow path and am likely to take the vell ere long. “Well, fat lover, will I see you soon? Let’us hope so. Lots of love. Nellie.” The other letter was written at New York City, June 7, and the writer ad- dressed Schulze as “Dear Bert.” After informing him that she has sent him her rhotograph and wants one of him In re- turn, she writes: “When do you expect to get your va- cation? I would like to know so if you can arrange to spend it with ms I can also make my plans. As ever, Kate.”’ Mrs. Schulzé says she has learned that a registered letter was sent to “Kate’’ from Berger, Mo., July 1. Mrs. Schulze is a siender brunette, and is considered beautiful. She told a Post-Dispatch reporter that the ro- mance between her and Schulze began four years ago, when Schulze was casii- fer of the Yandeventer Trust Co., to letters is dated at St. 1912, and reads ax fol- ICTY FINDS COAL AND OPENS MINt IN FOREST PARK Vein of Bituminous Fuel Found on Site of the U. S. Govern- ment Building at Fair. SUPPLY FOR MONKEY CAGE Under the Coal Is Heavy Layer of Fire Clay, Which Experts Say Is High Grade. A coal mine in Forest Part, :ately dis- covered, promises..to help in cutting down the municipal high «ost of living. The city will burn next winter many tons of fuel on which not only the bridge arbitrary, but the aia freight charge and the operators’ profit have been saved. A vein of high-grade bituminous coal has been found on the spot where the United States Government Building stood at the World’s Fair, and is now being mined for the city’s use. Thirty tons of the coal have been taken to the Forest Park bird cage, and 15 tons to the monkey house, which have io be heated in winter. As more is dug out, it will be supplied to the other parks, to which 150 tons have already been sent. Belongs to the City, The only cost to the city will be that of mihing and hauling; for the coal raturally belongs to the city. Fifty tons of coal are now piled up near the place where it was taken out, awaiting orders from the Park Commissioner as tc its disposal. Landscape gardeners’ found traces of the coal while they were at work recent- ly preparing the ground for a terrace garden on the slope below.the park shelter house, When pieces of coal were discovered near the surface, it was supposed they might have been left there is some way by the Government coal testing plant, though the plant had stood almost a half) mile away. Layer of Fire Clay. The'gardeners had ctitiosity enough to follow the trail of the coal, which was at first loose and scattered pieces, but which-aoon led into a well-defined vein of a good grade of fuel. Fred Marshall, supervisor of landscape work, put a man at work digging the coal. Another man was soon added, then a force of laborers was detailed to the task of mining. Under the coal is a layer of fire clay ' to 10 feet deep which experts pro- nounce of high grade.

After a big corporation , hha relented and given her its consent and blessing, Miss Eléanor Cronin, $75,000 heiress of her father, the late ‘““Judge Jim” Cronin, went to the city hall Thursday with: Hol- rean Johnson of 3744 Finney avenue and obtained a license to wed. Miss Cronin and Johnson attempted to cbtain the license Tuesday, the day orig- inally set for the wedding, but it was re- fused because she is only 17 years old and. her guardian, the Mercantile Trust Co., would not consent. Her father died about six months ago and her mother died a month ago. Get Special Dispensation. After obtaining the license Miss Cronin and Johnson said they would be mar- ied Thursday afternoon at St. Malachy’s Church. A dispensation for the mar- riage was obtained from Archbishop Glennon Tuesday, as Johnson is not a Catholic. After being balked in her first effort to obtain the license, Miss Cronin went to Festus J. Wade, president of the Mercantile Trust Co., and pleaded with him to give the company’s consent. Aft- er a long conference, she agreed with Wade that it would be better to wait a year until she should be of age. Thursday morning Miss Cronin was called to the telephone in the D’Ariles Hotel, Morgan and Walton avenues, where she has been living since her mother’s death. Consent and Blessing. Virgil M. Harris, trust officer of the Mercantile Trust Co., was at the oth- er end of the wire. He told her the company had decided to give her not only its consent, but its blessing. Hurrying downtown, she went to the motor cycle shop where Jéhnson is employed, and told him the glad news. When they reached the marriage li- cense office the written consent had reached there. Johnson formerly was a motorcycle racer, but has promised Miss- Cronin he will never again ride in @ race. Since her father’s death Miss Cronin has been attending to the insurance agency which he established after re- tiring from m politics.

Michael May, engineer on Missouri Facific fast train which left Union Sta- tion at 9 a. m., Thursday, for Kansas City, was scalded to death when the engine left the track at Fern Glen, 2) miles from St. Louis, at 9:45 a. m. His firsman, J. F. Stankey, was injured. An official report from the railroad company gave the information of the accident and said that no passengers or mail clerks were uninjured, only the engines being derailed. Two engines were pulling the train. The first was overturned into a ditch, and the second left the rails, but re- ruained upright. One mail car also was derailed, but did not turn over. -A relief train was sent from St. Louis and until the track could be repaired, trains were detoured over the Frisco tracks. Reports from the scene of the wreck said that Stankey was badly scalded and his recovery was doubtful. He was treated at Valley Park by Dr. F. P. Knabb. ° May and Stankey jumped from the en- gine when they felt it leaving the rafis and were caught under it as it toppled over. Stankey freed himself and rolied into the Meramec River, whence he was pulled out by soldiers who were pas- sengers. | —_— EDISON WORKS 122 | OUT OF 144 HOURS WEST ORANGE, N.

Authaud of Chillicothe were nominated for the two judgeships of Di- vision No. 2, PROGRESSIVES FOR HOME RULE The Progressive party’s home rule plank, adopted with the rest of the platform at the Jai Alai convention Wednesday, declares for bi-partisan police,» excise and election boards, with the power of removal by the Governor in case the officials are derelict in their duty. It does not suggest how the bi-partisan boards shall be chosen, whether by election or appointment. The Democratic and Republican platform, to be adopted by the State platform conventions of those parties within the next few weeks, will con- tain home rule planks. Attorney- General Major, the Democratic nomi- nee for governor, has declared him- self in favor of home ruie for all the larger cities, and has given the im- pression that he believed in making the local officials virtually inde- pendent of the state government. John C. McKinley, Republican nomi- nee, has cited the fact that he wrote the home rule plank in two previous state platforms, as showing that he is for home rule. The Progressive platform declares for woman suffrage, equal opportun- ity for the negro, the commission form of government for cities, the improvement of the Mississippi by use of Panama Canal machinery, the merit system, the short ballot, the initiative and referendum.in city and county government, and the recall of elected officials, judges being neither specifically mentioned nor specifically excluded. It is declared that new trials should not be granted on er- rors not affecting the justice of ver- dicts. The widows’ allowance, or pension plank, advocates the extension throughout the State of a plan now prevailing in Kansas City. It pro- vides for the payment to mothers of a sum sufficient to enable them to cate for their children at home, in- stead of putting them in orphanages. Mrs. Henrietta Cosgrove of. Joplin introduced this plank. Of the other planks, a number were adapted from the national platform, They relate to the eight-hour work- ing day for women, workingmen’s compensation acts, and insurance against sickness and age. The super- vision by the State of stock and bond issues, aS a Means of protecting the public against “wildcat” stock, also was urged. Revision of the taxation laws is favored, but the party is not committed to the singe-tax movement. PROGRESSIVES GET 6 CALIFORNIA DISTRICTS SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 5.—Belated re- turns from Tuesday’s primary election give the Progressive Republicans six congressional nominations to five for the Taft supporters. In the close Third and Highth districts, Charles F. Curry and E,. A. Hayes (incumbents), regular Re- publican, won by narrow margins. The Progressives nominated more than 80 of the 100 Republican party candi- dates for the Legislature, as opposed to the Taft Republicans. The Phelan (Wil- son) wing of the Democracy won from the Bell (Clark) faction throughout the State. As the Progressive victory insures the nomination of presidential electors pledged to Roosevelt, Taft leaders here have begun discussion of plans for plac- ing candidates on the November ballot. By the ruling of Attorney-General Webb, their Only recourse is to launch special petitions, each of which must bear the names of 11,000 voters who did not par- ticipate in yesterday’s primaries, and even then they will not be allowed the party designation. Lucy Goode White, a newspaper wri- ter, Was nominated by the Socialists for the Superior bench in San Francisco.

Ff Plea That They Are Not to Blame for Death From Tri- china Overruled in Suit. By Associated Presa. NEW YORK, Sept. 5.—In overruling @ demurrer interposed by Armour & Co. in a damage suit brought by Sophia Kel- terer, who alleged that she had been poisoned by trichina-infected pork, pre- pared by the defendant, Judge Noyes in the United States District Court today tuled that the packer, not the middle- man or retailer, is responsible. “The p cer should be held respon- sible for e result of negligent acts which he can readily foresee,”’ said the Court. “The iron manufacturer who fails to inspect a piece of iron cannot foresee that it will be used in a boiler and cause a ship to sink. But the meat packer who fails to inspect his products for poisonous parasites or ingredients knows that polgon will poison and that the per- sons to be poisoned through his neglect will be those who eat his products and no one else.” Armour & Co. contended that &@ mage ufacturer who deals with the middlerfan and not directly with the consumer was not responsible.

$500 to him, not knowing that he owed large amounts to others. Mrs. Ida A. Sullivan, wife of a por- trait and landscape painter, said Hof- man impressed on her, when he took $600 as a loan from her, and promised 6 rer cent, that the transaction was confi- dential. The only person she told was her husband, and he assured her, she says, that her money could nowhere be safer than it was with Hofman. George Stockman is a huckster. He lately asked Hofman, he says, for the return of his $100, and received four checks. All have been returned by the bank on which they were drawn, he said. Hofman’s acquaintances said they could not understand where the money had gone. His business was prosperous, they said, and -his houses were usually rented. Some of them have heard that he lost $6000 to $10,000 by acting as se- curity on another ‘man’s note. HURT GOING TO FIRE

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, Sept. 5.— Willard Hansen, former County Attor- ney, Was arrested early this morning .in company with 10 other persons on the charge of bribery and swindling. Hansen and the gang have been watched by the police for fave weeks, and his arrest followed an attempt to take a suit of clothes from the police station, which was being held as evi- dence in a murder case. For the last five weeks, it is charged, Hansen has been paying two police de- tectives $50 a week for protection of a gang of fake poolroom operators. The detectives have been taking the money and turning it over to the Chief of Po- lice. Several hese ago Hansen asked the detectives to leave the closet door open fn which the suit of clothes was stored. 3% They agreed, and when the attorney was leaving the police station with the cloth- ing he was arrested. Following his ar- rest, the poolroom was raided and the operators arrested. Hansen conducted the prosecution against former Chief of Police George Sheets, who was charged with grafting in connection with the McWhitier broth- ers’ swindle here several years ago. BACKACHE

NOT A DISEASE

Baekache is a symptom of organic ailment or derangement. If you have backache don’t neglect it. To get permanent relief you must reach the root ef the trouble. Read about Mrs. Woodall’s experience. Morton’s Gap, Kentucky.—‘‘I suf- fered two years with female disor- s ders, my health was very bad and “4 1 had a continual Sa backache which faa was simply awful. ea 1 could not stand aon my feet long enough to cook a meal’s victuals “without my™back 1 nearly killing me; with it 1 had other pains which I could hardly bear.

Official Member of the Body to Serve Without Pay. HE ASSAILS THE CHIEFS

Declares Janis Complained Be- cause His Name Wasn’t Get- ting in the Papers.

Hf. Spearman Lewis, whose abundant “pep” has been a large factor in the organization of the Bull Moose party in St. Louis and Missouri, is no longer sec- retary of the party's State Committee. By the action of the State Committee, at a meeting Wednesday night, the sec- retary will be a member of the commit- tee and will serve without salary. Both these provisions eliminate Lewis, who is not a member of the committee, and who has given his entire time to the party work since June 27, and has de- pended on it for a living. Says He “Rode Them With Spurs.” William H. Walker, national commit- teeman, says Lewis was released as a means of saving money. Lewis says the reason was that he rode Walker and Paul V. Janis, vice-chairman of the committee, ‘‘with spurs a foot long.’’ The spurs were, presumably, the ones he won in the Eleventh District congres- sional campaign of two years ago, when he served as publicity agent in Theron E..Catlin’s campaign. That was his first political work, his previous career hav- ing been that of a theatrical press agent. Lewis ‘‘talked turkey’”’ to the commit- tee before it passed the resolution af- fecting him, he said. He told the mem- bers he had been the first man to un- branch of the party, and that his trou- bles with Walker and Janis had arisen over his demand that they get their coats off and organize the State, and over the contents of the display window at the headquarters, 517 Olive street. Lewis said he had “‘Votes for Women” painted on the window, and that Walker objected. He said Walker and Janis cut two negro delegates out of a photo- graph, and that he and the negroes ob- jected, “and it took a week to square that row.”’ Lewis said he and Janis parted com- pany when, on a Sunday afternoon, Janis ‘‘whined for three hours that he was not getting his name in the news- papers as vice-chairman.”’ While Lewis was trying to make his male associates work harder, he com- plained of the way the women at head- quarters were required to work. Dicta- tion to stenographers frequently did not begin until 6:30 p. m., he said, and the Progressive party, which favors an eight-hour day for women, was put in the position of making the women in its employ violate the nine-hour law. Complained to Roosevelt. Lewis said he had “badgered, jollied and bullied’ in the attempt to get the committee to adopt some definite method of financing the State campaign, but that his efforts had been in vain, and that in a week the treasury would be empty. “I told Col. Roosevelt in his private car Tuesday evening,” he said, ‘“‘that our State headquarters was a burlesque, and that if within 10 days he did not send an organizer of experience to Mis- souri, the State would be hopelessly lost to the Progressive party.” He added that his remarks ‘‘seemed to sink in,”’ as Col. Roosevelt at once had wired Senator Dixon concerning an rae, for Missouri. ) J. L. STEVENS HEADS IOWA MOOSE TICKET Nomination of Full State Ticket Interrupted by Roosevelt’s Speech. DES MOINES, Io., Sept. 56.—With John I. Stevens of Boone as their nomi- nee for Governor, Iowa Progressives in convention here yesterday put a third party State ticket in the field, over- coming opposition to the plan by a vote of nearly 5 to 1. Judge Stevens, who was on the reception committee to meet €ol. Roosevelt, was named by acclama- tion, just as the Rodsevelt party was entering the Coliseum. The speech of Col. Roosevelt inter- rupted the State ticket nominations, but after he had left the hall, the following were named: Lieutenant-Governor, BH. G. Allison of Oneida; Auditor, C. F. Meyer, Elkader: Treasurer, N. F. Baker, Lucas; Rail- road Commissioner, Ira Nichols, Iowa Falls; Secretary of State, H. A. Morey of Waverly. Congressional candidates were nomi- nated by caucuses for five districts as follows: Second, Herman K. Zeuch, Davenport; Third, R. E. Leach, Inde- pendence; Sixth, J. H. Patton, Grinnell: Seventh, George C. White, Nevada: Fighth, L. W. Laughlin, Mount Ayr.

A city postman ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH. $i a year. “My pian,” said a Post-Dispatch reporter, would make the Government surety for its owa postal employes throughout the country, but without expending or risk- ing a cent of Government money. I have suggested in speeches at postal conventions that each postal employe, instead of being required to go to & bonding company to stand surety for him, pay into a fund to be managed by officials designated for the purpose the amount required for his bonding fee. “If the men, by creating for them- selves a bonding fund, can cut down the expense of. their bonds and at the same time make it absolutely sure that the Government will lose aothing, this “plan should be well worth while. “Let us say that each of the 320,900 postal employes should pay into the fund an average of $3. That would create a fund of $960,000 at the start. In the service are many expert account- ants some of whom could be put in charge of this co-operative bonding fund. In case of a defalcation it would be a mere matter of bookkeeping for them to turn over to the Government the amount missing, thus protecting the people without the necessity of litiga- tion.” Postmaster Akins was invited to speak cn this topic at postal meetings in At- lantic City and Boston Sept. 3 and 4, but was detained here on account of a rush of work. He says that he expects to place the matter in ths hands of the House Committee on Post Offices and Post Roads with a view to the drafting of a bill to authorize the automatic ponding system.

‘revision up-| vp oa. ‘i SEPTEMBER 5, 1912. ~~~ THURSDAY EVENING, to pick this analysis to pieces, and will gay that these 15 samples are not representative. Then let ‘us take the line of fancy weaves of the Lip- pitt-McColl group of tariff-favored mills, on which the duty was jacked up by Senator Aldrich to an average of 60.33 per cent. On only eight of these nine samples are correspond- ing data available. On these fancy goods the labor cost is supposed to run very high, and on that theory the mill owners “put over’ their Srab of higher duties. But on the eight Lippitt-McColl fabrics the duty averages more than two and one-half times the total cost of the labor that the duty pretends to “protect.” As a matter of fact, the investiga- tions proved that it is not the mills enjoying excessive protection that pay the highest wages. The mill Operative does not get more than a small fraction of the benefit. Some- one else pockets the profit. On cotton duck, represented in the Tariff Board’s cotton samples, the duty amounts to more than 12 times the total cost of the labor entering into the finishéd product. Still the Peyne-Aldrich bill boosted the duty on each of these fabrics. In not one instance among the 100 representative cotton fabrics does the Payne-Aldrich duty amount to less than the total labor cost. On sample No. 80 (fine gingham) the duty is 101 per cent of the total labor cost, and on cotton tapestry, sample - No. 93, the duty is 101.4 per cent of the total labor cost. To appreciate how relatively small is the part that wages Play in the cost of production, the reader should compare in the accompanying table the columns headed “Total .Manu- facturing Cost Per Square Yard” and “Total Labor Cost Per Square Yard.” Then see the column “Duty Per Square Yard,” and the fact will stand out in bold relief that the excessive duty is os of tariff injustice. The fabrics on which the exorbitant profits are made are the products of the rich New England mills whose owners have been active contributors to campaign funds and confidential advisers to Republican ‘tariff legislators, The fabrics on which only reasonable profits have .been possible are the products of the general run of mills, partiquiarly of the South, Wage Stati ti Hidd It has come to be admitted even by the friends of high protection that the ‘tariff has not been passed on to the American workingman—not all of it, nor even a fair proportion. It has been an open question whether. the American standard of wages is enough higher than the Buropean to make the American workingman actually better off than his European competitor, whose living costs him less. The Tariff Board was expected to get the facts concerning labor at home and abroad, and give Congress a basis for intelligent legislation. In its investigations of the cotton manu- facturing industry it acquired the necessary data—but what did it do with it? The published report contains many wage and labor-cost figures from En- gland, but they are inadequate for comparison with wages and Iliabor costs in thig country. From the board's presentation of the wage fig- ures in English and American mills it is utterly impossible to draw an intelligent conclusion, for similars are not compared with similars. Labor statistics for the textile in- dustry in Germany were far more intelligible. The German figures are of vast importance to Congress and to the American cotton manufactur- ers because the German industry has thrived under its low tariff, and both manufacturers and workers are sat- isfied. What we could learn ifn Ger-

metres, were transposed. into dollars and yards, the wage and labor-cost comparisons were made, and the board had before it facts te prove: 1. That the German textile operative receives, yard for yard of production, nearly as much end in many instances MORE than the American mill worker.

pretense that the high protective tariff was levied principally for his benefit. We have been told, for in- stance, that the wages paid to Amier- fean textile operatives were nearly Paoudle the .wages in England. The popular supposition has been that the American wage scale made the greatest part of the difference be tween our high cost of production supposedly much lower cost. The Tariff Board's investigations have established what well-informed honest men in the cotton manu- ' facturing industry have admitted for a long time, namely: i. That on the whole the cost of production in the United States is no higher than it is abroad. In many classes of fabrie we excel in efficiency and manufacture at lower cost than our greatest competitor, and. 2. While the“Knglsh mill operative, with-his lower cost of living, recelyes lewer Wages, he produces on the average léss .. than the American operative. Suppressed Labor Table. The Tariff Board suppressed a table of percentages prepared by its ex- perts and statisticians disclosing the relation between the tariff and the cost of labor,’ This table showed that #he tariff on cotton cloth is between two and three times the total cost of the labor entering into its produc- tion, This fact the “non-partisan” Tariff saw fit not to publish. : the Tariff Board’g 100 samples of cotton cloth ig too long to be entertaining to the average reader.

But the duty is 984 cents a yard, so the American mill can get its price of 2714 cents and the jobber cannot import in competition. Safe within the tariff wall, the jobber adds on 5 or 7 cents and the retailer 15 or 1714 cents, and the American-made ‘‘French Plumetis’’ reaches ‘the con- sumer at 00 cents a yard. So that-the ten yards of ma- terial required for this frock costg at retail $5. The. tariff tax on the ten yards amountg to 971% eents. Tracing the sale of this class of goods, the Post-Dis- patch’s_ tex- tile expert found them mis branded and -sold as ‘French Plu- excellent imi- The actual cost of pro-

ia figures in such a way as to drive ome the significance of these sup- pressed data. This table, herewith printed, shows: 1. That the total. manufacter- ing cost in America of the 15 fab- rics, including the raw cotton, averaged 11.46 centg per square yard. 2 That of this total cost of 1146 cents, 2.62 cents represents all that was charged up to labor cost. But the tariff on these fabrics un- der the Payne-Aldrich law averaged 7.9 cents a square yard, or exactly three times the total cost of labor, and 69 per cent of the total cost of production, labor, material and all. Material (cotton) alone represents 60 per cent of this total cost,

What fact could more convincingly damn the hypocrisy of the high-pro- tectionists? Consider that the Ameéri- can cost of producing these goods is little or no higher, and in some cases less, than the foreign cost. Remember that the tariff is an tmport tax in- tended to equalize the difference be- tween cost of production at home and abroad. Bear’ in mind that the bulk of this difference has been supposed to lie in higher wages paid in Amer- ica. Then.if .the high protectionists were honest and the tariff .justly made, according to the theory of the Republican platform, the duty would be somé fraction of the total labor cost instead of three times its total. Lippitt-McColl Labor Cost. Special privtlege doubtless will si ated by the second table showing who makes the profits on these same 15 fabriés. The percentage of manu- facturing profit represented in the first column of figures is the net ‘profit, after paying for labor, ma- terials and all such fixed charges as repairs, insurance, depreciation, etc. On seven of the 15 classes of goods the maker’s net profit is 40 per cent to as high as 53 per cent; on five it is 18 to 36. per cent, and on Only three does it fall so low as 12, 11 and 39, respectively. Dividing the 15 fabrics again into and the German report suppressed, Digested German Data. The statistics. for Germany were procured for the board by Dr. Charles W. A. Veditz,- who was sent on an extended tour of investigation in Germany and Switzerland. He brought back data on about 200 samples of representative fabrics ana cotton manufactures.

Germany's average duty on 45 oth- er cotton fabrics which were § not juggled in the Payne-Aldrich revis- jon ig 20.2 per cent; the American duty is 44.58 per cent. Germany’s average duty on nine fabrics which were the subject of “jokers” in the Payne-Aldrich bill is 9.22 per cent. The American aver- aze duty is 60.33 per cent, Shock to “Stand-Patters.’’ The result of Dr. Veditz’s investi- gations-of labor costs in Germany was a shock to the members of the Tariff Board who did not want to publish facts too damaging te special beneficiaries of the American tariff. There can be no other acceptable rea- son for the suppression of the facts brought back from Germany. As the German figures were di- gested by the board’s accountants and it became obvious that the Ger- man wage statistics would shatter some of the old-time theories of the “stand-patters,” Dr. Veditz’s work was shelved. Its suppression was regard- ed as scandalous by attaches of the board who knew its significance. Cause ef Cotton Depression. A great deal has been heard since the panic of 1907 and particularly in the last two or three years to the effect that the cotton goods industry reaction, but from all sorts of causes, among oth- ers the possibility of a change of tariff.

n i iW -a oe n a eee eae oe . > . ig . ie > EE EI SSE GTS LE TIT CREE pitt ; . ‘ . bets Fb Ch StS THURSDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 5, 1912, Jana exports of cotton manufactures re- mained about stationary. The sion ef the cotton trade in 1911 was dué to the Inevitable adjustment of supply and demand, and was in no wise af- fected by the protended fear of tariff changes. Herror of tariff juggling was used as an excuse by “men who did not know” to explain why the industry was in the doldrums. The real fact ¢; we have been producing more than we could consume On an enormous scale and entirely out of proportion to our last decade’s growth in population, while our excessive tariff has fostered inefficiency and has failed to push the protected American manufacturer out from its sheltering walls to seek the world’s markets. Tariff Heights Unexplored. It is not uncommon in the tradsa to hear a prominent manufacturer say he wants the tariff “high enough to keep out foreign goods.”’.. He had this under the Dingley law, but allowed poliiical manipulation to make it appear differ- ent. He supported what he honestly supposed to be the proper tariff. The trouble is the manufacturers as a whole have not known what the tariff has really amounted to, and it is only re- cently they have been compelled to real- ize that they must wake up and under- stand it. While the Payne-Aldrich cotton ached- ule was under consideration the selling agent of one of the largest textile con- cerns in the world asked me how much were the duties on ginghams. I told him from 35 per cent upward, according t> the different fabrics. He replied, ‘Oh, well, that’s all right.”” ‘“But,’’ I said. ‘the Payne-Aldrich law increased the duties.””'**You don’t tell me! I’m sur- prised,’’ was his reply. Now, as a mater of fact, the great manufacturing concern which this man represents does not make excessive profits. It is an example of the progress of the American cotton industry: it has constantly cheapened its products by modern machinery, and has reached a high state of efficlency—so much so that its operatives receive higher wages than abroad. This ts an example of that part of New England’s cotton industry that should not be classed with the others who are looking for special tariff favors.

Mrs. Hyram Watson Says Hus-} band Choked Her and Drank to Excess. Capt. Hyram Watson, master of the steamboat Belle of Calhoun, was sued for divorce Thursday by Mrs. Mary J. Watson of 1624 North Fourteenth street. She alleges that he applied epithets te her and on one occasion, when she re- fused to turn certain money and real estate over to him, choked her so hard that blue marks appeared on her neck. She charges also that he drank to ex- cess and that he often came home in the early morning hours and boasted of having been out with other women. Mrs. Watson asks the court to restore to her the name of Colther, which was the name of her first husband, who died. According to the petition, her marriage to Watson took place in Hast St. Louis Aug. 23, 1909, and the separa- tion came Feb. 15, 1911. Her husband, she says, is known also as Aroy Wat- son.

ome VAPOR NEW FLY KILLER A Atmosphere Charged With Alco- holic Distillation Is Deadly. WASHINGTON, Sept. 5.—A new fly- killer was tried in the District Health Office. Several hundred flies were lib- erated in an atmosphere charged with an alcoholic distillation of the long-leaf pine and were dead a few minutes aft-

a nea erwesd. se ‘adele’ all saan ot strong enough to provide a short drink- less drunk for human beings. Dr. Joseph C. Shepard of Wilmington, N. C., discovered the new killer. The demonstration was given by his as- sistant, Dr. L. J. Morel. It was ex- plained that flies breathe through pores, and that the pine-leaf product closes the ports and thus stops respiration. The mixture, it is stated, is not injurious to human beings. - a

The girl entered the Hempstead School for the term, but Thursday she and Stone met by appointment, and went to St. Charles, where ‘they were married by Justice Knott. When the girl’s parents were apprised of the wedding they insisted that the couple remain apart until a second cere- mony could be performed by a rabbi, and the couple- agreed, the bride re- turning to: her home, and Stone going to his.

the success of that venture had inspired a robbery of his own. Following so closely upon the attempted robbery of the Cincinnati southbound passenger trah: on the same road at al- most the same spot, the night previous, the work of Edwards is considered most daring. Hdwards first crawled aboard the en- gine not far from New Orleans anc cov- ered En ineer Baer and the fireman with two revolvers. He carried a small va- lise in which he had dynamite and ni- troglycerin. The belief is he thought there Was an express car on the train and that he intended to blow open the safe. The train was stopped and with the en- gineer s@6 fireman preceding him at the point of a revolver, Edwards rifled the mail car of all registered mail and then robbed the mén passengers in the sleep- ers and club car of their valuables. He did not offer to molest women. Fifty- six men were searched, but many of them, having been warned, hid their money before the bandit arrived.

Forces Train to Start Again. Edwards completed his trip through the five Pullmans and the club car and

The scene of the robbery was in a swamp and the holdup man wanted to reach a spot where his escape would be easier. Engineer Baer got his train under way and proceeded at the bandit’s order, watching his chance. He had noticed that the heavy brass torch which is used around the engine was lying near and when Edwards’ head turned, the engineer seized it and struck the robber a terrific blow on the skull, making him helpless. Supt. Charles Marshall of this division of the road was a passenger on the train and he obtained the robber’s va- lise and redistributed his booty to the passengers who had been neld up. Marshall said that only one passenger on the train had a revolver, and that he was afraid to use it, in fear that he might hit one of the members of the engine crew. Unconscious at Intervals. When the train reached Bay St. Louis, Miss., the robber was taken off and placed in the charge of the railroad surgeon until policemen and detectives from New Orleans arrived there in a special train. He was unconscious at intervals. Edwards is 6 feet 6 inches in height, and weighs 130 pounds. He appears to be about 30 years of age. The Limited, somewhat schedule on account of the etops, proceeded on its way. behind its frequent

Your editorial, “How Teeth Affect the Public Health,” in the Sunday: Post-Dispatch is an evi- dence of certain advancement. The care of the mouths of children under 10 years of age means more to their future welfare as individuals than any other one thing. A healthy mouth means a strong body and quick, active brain. The children of today are to be the citizens of tomorrow and both parent and community should be vitally interested in the kind of citizens they are to make. Statistics have shown that 95 per cent ef school children have defective teeth and that the brightest students invariably have good teeth, the chances, therefore, are appreciably bet- ter for scholarship and promotion with the child having g0o0d teeth. In addition to pneumonia, diphtheria and tuber- culosis, other diseases or suffering such as in- flammation of the tonsils or fauces, indigestion, eruptive fevers, headache, earache, perhaps, some cases of appendicitis and various nervous diseases, including some cases of epilepsy may be induced or predisposed by defective or neglected teeth. In Chicago, Cleveland and Rochester free den- tal clinics ate maintained for the benefit of the school children—it will be so in St. Louls even- tually. The local dental society for sometime have been vpiy & service gratis to schoo] chil- dren, provided it can be done with system, but in order to have sufficient momentum behind this offer the hearty co-operation of-the press, School Board and such societies as the Children’s Welfare Association and Mothers’ Congress is esseritial. R. H. M. i cceedainnaiimaamemeeant Accidents in Skyscraper Construction. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. . Speaking about skyscrapers, if the law was en- forced there would not be so many accidénts on construction work. Just stop and think of the present big construction under way and not half completed—how many men will be crushed to death or crippled for life on account of the neg- lect of the contractors, or job foremen trying. to Save some expense by not buying scaffold boards. There really should be an inspector on such a job for the purpose of seeing that this law is en- forced, for humanity’s sake. Someone has to do this class of work, why not give them some con- sideration, as they are human and have someone adcpending on them for support? EDWIN SHEA.

There Are Women and Women. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Looking through my newspaper files today, I note with pronounced amusement an argument in your People’s Letter column as to whether women should be considered as a toy and detriment, or in the light of a helpmeet and general highbrow. One young man asserts the former, while the second, who is married congenially and has a g00d salary the latter. Cannot these well mean- ing, but misguided writers understand that they are both correct? They are both right in go far as each is concerned... The first one’s surroundings, etc., throw him in contact with the first mentioned type; probably will continue to do so. Ags one’s surroundings and environment is their own par- ticular world, of course he is correct in his as- s¢rtion. His views will gradually change as he gets older. The other fellow is right also, as far as his world is concerned. I would suggest that these young men join the Progressive party. Do that, and think of something else. The Bull Moose discourages such profitless ideas, and would not countenance for a minute such ragtime arguments at any of its meetings. I think the hot weather is affecting these two boys. HARVEY W. QUACK QUACK. Selfish Smokers. To the Hditor of the Post-Dispatch. Canpot something be done to stop the smoking on the cars? Last week I got on a Delmar car and found it full of tobacco smoke. I went to the front part of the car to get as far away from the smoke as possible. I truly believe there were & dozen smokers, scattered through the car up to within three seats of the front. Whenever the car stopped, all the smoke came to the front. I found I was getting very sick from the stench of the smoke, and I had to get out. The front of the car was so full with people I had to get off at the back end. I held my nose as I walked back, for I was afraid to breathe any more smoke, and two of the smokers laughed in my face. After a little time in the open air I got on another Delmar car and found smokers on the middle seats, The first car was full, oe 70 passengers, yet a few smokers were allo to make it too nasty for the comfort of the ordinary man or woman. Can’t the car company stop the smoking, or must there be a law? MRS. Ma. L. B Buthanasia. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The pathetic plea of the New York woman, incurably paralyzed, that the doctors be permitted by law to put her and similarly afflicted human beings out of their sufferings, shows how un- reasonably we are bound by custom, tradition and prejudice. During our civil war, hundreds of thousands of able-bodied men killed each other, more than that number were wounded and con- tracted diseases from which they suffered ever afterward and transmitted them to posterity, Custom and tradition call this honor and glory. A jury condemns another fellow being to death for a capital] crime. This is justice; it is néces- sary “for the preservation of society.” But if a jury of physicians should decide to put painlessly out of existance the suffering incurable, idiots, hopelessly insane, abnormal criminals, infants bern incurably deformed or hereditarily tainted, this would not be for the “preservation of so- ciety,” but would be murder. How absurd and in- consnstent we are! JEFF MACKAY. More Transfers Needed. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. In a morning paper I read an atcount of a reporter’s personal experience with the. new transfer system. The item was headed “One Fare Will Pay to Any City Point.” 7 This reporter sets down his experience with the rew transfer system in getting from one point to another on the payment-of a 5-cent fare, but unfortunately, his appetite for street car rides always started him on an east and west line, then transfering on north and south line and again transfering to east and west line. I hope the next time he goes for a joy ride on the United Raflways Co.’s joy cara he will start /- in Walnut Park on Union line with only a 6-cent fare in his jeans and that his destination be, oh, uth St. Louls not within reach of r fi?

= FACTS ABOUT LABOR. From the New York World. In 38 branches of mining and manu- facture, 26,116 adult male workers aver- aged $475 a year in wagss. Out of 3% average wage-earners in mine and factory enumerated, only one] was American-born. The average yearly income of 15,000 families was $721. The married employe does not get enough wages to support a family. Wife and children-must work for wages or keep boarders, Of 16,000 families, only two-fifths. were supported by the earn- ings of the men. In 2038 families in the fron and steel industries, 70 per cent of the family income was earned by the men. In 746 families of cotton operatives, ‘‘only slightly more than ons-half’’ the family income was earned by the men. Chil- dren earned 30 per cent; wives, in the mills or by keeping boarders, the re- mainder. Uf 17,000 industrial families, three out of ten had boarders or lodgers; there were 246 persons for every 100 sleeping rooms. The mill cost of news-print paper averaged in 1911 (Tariff Board figures) $22.98 a ton. Average selling price, $43.90. Labor cost “approximately only 10 per eent of total cost,” or not far from $3.30 & ton. The duty on stzel products is “from three to 16 times” the labor cost. To put on the market a yard of a cer- tain worsted suiting cost $1.71. The weaver got 5 cents a yard. The duty is $1.08. : An all-wool serge cost to produce @ cents a yard. The labor cost was 9 cents. The tariff is 49 conts; more than the total] cost; more than five times the labor cost. ‘Tabor unions * * * have been dis- rupted.” “The American wage-earner has largely disappeared.” Protection adds to the profits of ths “manufactur- er, mine-operator and wholesale mer- chant.”

PLEA FOR REASONABLE EXCITEMENT. S there anyone here for the single tax? Then will he kindly sound a whoop. The battle waxes very lax, And the banners generally droop. We hate to see a good old cause Like the single tax . :dbagged around, And promise tumultuous applause To the first man who will stand his ground. Or whether right or whether wrong, His clamor would be welcome still, And many a worn and jaded throng Would be so grateful for the thrill. There must be something in the thing— They've advocated it so long— But to hear the opposition ring One would suppose it very wrong. Thou follower of Henry George And Fels the naptha man, arise— Rendered brave by a rising gorge For all the opposition lies! Chase then around and round the State That slander such a goodly causé, And win for thine honor’s own estate The waiting commonwealth’s applause! In mortal fear of getting shot, The long-haired gentlemen have hid, And no one is explaining what Vancouver, for example, did. For want of leadership the fight Becomes a comedy for cranks, And men who clamored for the light Are safely hiding in the banks. Thou undiscovered Roosevelt Of this old theory, arise! Before thy wrath the foe shall melt Like snow beneath the summer skies. The farmer in his fear shall cast His pitchfork somewhere in the grase, And having vanquished them at last, The single tax project shall pass. The Hon. Pete Bolts. 4 oO Me a ae ypewriter.

THE POST-DISPATCH DAILY SHORT STORY

Not that Cleo bore the most remote resemblance to either of these worldly ladies in any re- spect whatever. She was merely actu- ated in her selection by that unintelli- gent romanticism whose ears are tickled by high-sounding appellations. ‘ ie In the beginning she was a homely, ’ 4 Metrack ger gt ee . \ if 359 ; ‘ af t ’ | «i z coul ood-hearted, ather had a garden a little way from San Naturally she made. occa- awkward, flax-headed, sional trips to market, and when she/f was about 17 she began to get city- struck. , So presently she came to town and ‘went to work in a restaurant.

Our Freddie would hide in a hard place. (In his eagerness and unaccustomed lightfootedness, father tries to take up, with his toe, a rug that is nailed to the floor. The rug gets the best of it, and makes him take the count.) Mrs. W. (solicitously): Oh, dear, dear! Did you hurt yourself, papa? Now I think we have played long enough.

I give my entire time and thought to the care of my home I consider that $20 a week continues to repre- sent my economic value. My hus- band agrees with me, and we have never had a serious differencé\about money. When we have saved $5000 we intend to purchase a suburban home. MRS. L. W. V. This Husband Has Nothing te Do But Pay Bilis, Now here is a very unusual view from a husband, who writes: Dear Madam—By devoting 12 hours a day to the hardest kind of brain work I manage to average $10,000 a year.. My wife employs two serv- | ants.. She has no children. I give her a@ personal allowance a week which she claims is insufficient. I do not spend nearly $500 a year for clothes. Why should my wife be un- able to dress herself on $500 a year? She makes no effort to live within her allowance. I am constantly pay- ing milliners’ and dressmakers’ bills. I never do it without a protest, but what good does it do me to protest? I merely exhaust my own nerves and take part in a nasty scene. Some times, when I coms home, I am ex- asperated by the very air of comfort even luxury—which my money has earned. I am not in my home long enough to enjoy it. I rarely have time for any talk with my wife that is not a wrangle over bills. It even makes me angry sometimes to see how fresh and pretty she looks. For I think, What is all tfis to me? What do I get out of it except the eternal obligation to pay, pay, pay. If we lived mors simply we could put by a great deal of money and I might have the hope of being able to retire from business eventually. But what American man can hope to be able to retirs from business so long as he can crawl to a car going downtown? In France and Germany a man works with the definite purpose of acquiring a competence and of retir- ing to live on his income. His wife recognizes his right to a middle-age of eass and helps him to put by

Because of its peculiar power of ab- ‘ sorption, also because it serves every emolient purpose, ordinary mercolized wax is perhaps the most valuable com- plexton béautifier discovered within re- cent years. If one uses this she needs no tollet cream. Some use poder afterward, but this is not necessary’ and is inadvisable, particularly when one perspires freely. This rule for applying mercolized wax has been found very satigfactory: Wash the face with warm water, drying lightly. Before thoroughiy dry, anoint face and neck with the wax, but don’t rub it in. The favorite way is to use before retiring, allowing it to. remain on all night and washfhe it off in the morning with warm water. All druggists have this wax In original one-

NONE NEW BOXING CLUBS’ OPENINGS PROVE BLOOMERS Auto Drivers Postpone Show Ar- ranged for Friday, Follow- ing B. W. A, “Frost.” The postponement of Friday’s sched- ar boxing bouts before the Auto Driv- * Club means that two of the seven de organizations which planned fistic entertainments have failed in their in- augural attempts. The first fall down occurred last Saturday night, when so few members of the Brewery Workers’ avsoviation turned out for the Kirk- Genail encounter that. Genail refused to gO On. Secretary Williams of the Auto Dr:v- ere’ Club said the hot weather was the reason for the postponement of that club’s show. He says a boxing card will be arranged later in the month, although the same boxers will hardly perform. The postponement of the Auto Driv- ers’ show means that the next biff en- tertainment will be held at the Busi- ness Men’s Athletic Club in the Jai Alai Building next Thursday night. Harry Trendall and Johnny King are to go on in the feature scrap. Bob Dougias, acting as secretary, match- maker and athletic director of the new club, has arranged one of the two pre- liminaries. It will be between Adolph Eaton and “Kid” Farmer. Trendall Not In Shape. all has returned from Memphis, where he mixed in a draw bout with Joe @herman Monday. Trendall blames his poor condition for his failure to make a better showing against the Southerner. He has started training for his engagement with King. Young Attell Decorated. Young Abe Attell, the local chap, showed that he is improving by fighting a draw with Willie Purcell of Cincinnati in Red- land. Atte]l returned from Garry Herr- mann’s town, wearing his right optic in mourning. He says the fact that he was sonceded a draw with a home product fs a pretty good indication that he had a shade over Purcell. Purcell is the same fellow who fought a draw with Oliver Kirk last March and whom Kirk wants to slam again. Bob Douglas wants the members of the Busiriess Men’s Athletic Club to come out to the Jai Alai in the day time and engage in a little physical culture, handball and bas- ket ball.

Sallee Pitches Cards to Front in Reds’ Final Koney and Mowrey Drivé™ th Three Runs, While Slim One Shuts Out Foe. TELDING nine well-separated hits and only one base on halls, Harry Sallee, the Higgsinsport Huckleberry, blanked the Reds Wednesday, 3—0, in Rhineland. Sal received erroriéss support, while Messrs. Ma. gee, Koney, Mowrey and Evans mixed in timely wallops. and the Cards managed to cop one bout in four played.

The Cards won out in the fifth. Bresna- han opened with an infield single. He was forced by Sallee, who proceéded to second on Huggins’ out. Magee walked and scored ’ all the way from first, behind Sal, on Mow- rey’s long single to left. Mowrey took sec- ond on the throw-in and scored on Koney’s single. Despite their victory Wednesday the Car- G@inals are hopelessly beaten by the Reds on the son's play. To date the proteges of cial ows six victories. They have lost 18 to O’Day’s oddities. That's a big fall- down from last vear. when the Cards won 16 and lost 6 to Clark Griffith’s gang. This National League race is getting as noisy as a drum corps in a moving picture show. The Giants can’t win with any reg- wlarity. but neither can the Cubs. While MecGraw's men were splitting 50 and 5O with the Phils. the Cubs bowed to the Pirates, and the New Yorkers thereby Increased their lead to six full games. Tf the Giants break even for the remain- der of the season the Cubs will be forced to win 20 of their 29 games to tie for the flag. Such a spurt by the Bruins is as improbable as Roosevelt's election. Have you noticed that a born-in-Missour! boy is the mainstay of the Giants? Big Jeff (Chariey) Tesreau, who hails from the Ozarks, is the pitcher who wins regularly for w. Marquard has been beaten almost every/ out, and, worst of all, he’s being hit hard. The Rube its showing the saffron in wholesale quantities. Speaking of Tesreau, it’s a fact that the big fellow is earning only $1800 for this year’s work. Of course, he'll cut in on the world’s series jackpot, but his straight salary fis only $300 a month. And he’s of more value to his team right now than Matty or Marquard, either of whom is getting twice his salary. Allen Hancock, one of the M. A. C. swim- mers. paid a visit to Tesreau's father down in 8t. Francis County the other day. Senior Tesreau vouchsafed the information that the big pitcher was pulling down all of $1900, end as Jeff sends home most of his wealth, Pa Tesreau should know whereof he speaks.

BOLF TITLE LES BETWEEN TRAVERS AND CHICK EVANS Indications Are That This Pair Will Meet in National Final. WHEATON, IIL, Sept. 5.—With three rounds remaining on the national ama- teur championship at the links of the Chicago Golf Club, the event was Hever before so much in doubt at the corre- sponding stage. With Hilton of England early disposed of and Seckel, Byers, Kirkby, Fownes, Travis and Herreshoff out of the running, one has only to fig- ure from past performance amd present form to conclude that Jerome Travers and Chick Evans are the best two chances. As between the two, Travers would be the favorite but for the fact that Evans is really putting well this year for the first time. However, his short game took a vacation Tuesday against Tillinghast, while Travers had a putting streak, Wednesday afternoon, that electrified the gallery. Evans is very much at home on this course, but that does not count for much against the player who is in a class so much by himself as to seem lonesome, Briton Can’t Stand Heat. Cooler weather would help Norman Hunter, the Scotchman, greatly, who was actually #11 Wednesday morning from the heat. Abroad Hunter declares they would never think of contesting in such heat. * Paul Hunter is pretty certain to beat Kerr today, the latter having defeated Seckel, one up at two rounds. That would probably bring Hunter of Chicago als. test will Chick

CLUB RETURNS SEPT. 30 Three-Game Clash With Reds Here Will Then Wind Up Local Schedule. By W. J. 9’CONNOR Six defeats and t) \%e victories is the unenvied record which the Cardinals bring back from their junket to Chicago and Cincinnati. Bresnahan’s men open a four-game series with the Pirates at Robison Field Thursday afternoon, and, with the ex- ception of three games with Cincinnati early in October, this is the last time they will show at home this season. After closing with the Pirates here Sunday, they hit the blazed trail for the East, where they play 18 bouts dur- ing the latter part of the month. Then they jump back to the home lot on Sept. 30 for three bouts with the Reds and will close their season in Chicago on Oct. 6. Bresnahan’s presence behind the bat le the’ only interesting feature of the club’s playing, at thie late date. Roger intends to labor in the majority of the remaining games, 80 as to get a line on his young pitchers wbo will report be- tween now and closing time. Roger on the Job. Incidentally this activity on the part of the manager indicates that he is not worried by the repeated rumors that he will be trad- ed before the 1918 campaign. Roger is going along as though all was serene in the busi- ness office and in the face of such disquiet- ing rumors his conduct is commendable. Bresnahan’s failure to work regularly early in the season caused many of the Robison Field fans to grow! in disappointment. How- ever, Roger probably acted wisely. By mak- ing Ivey Wingo shoulder the onus and re- sponsibility he gave the firey-haired young réceiver a chance to develop into champion- ship timber. Indeed, critics around the cir- cuit are unanimous in their belief that in Wingo Bresnahan has the grandest young catcher developed in the major leagues in recent years. He can hit, throw and’ run. But more than that. he’s a born hustler. The Right View. Wingo is a kid, while Roger is reaching the shady side of his baseball career. There- fore, why should not Wingo be primed for regular duty next season ?. Bresnahan jumped into harness in Cin- cinhatl, ‘Tieeday, after Being on the bench for mera, two months, He received WoodburfY ‘and Griner.

With Ballee working Wednesday narry a steal was credited to Bescher, Marsans, Grant, Hobby or any of the other speed boys. Sal doesn’t yield a long lead and anystime the enemy hasn’t a flying start, Bresnahan will flag them at Hugginsville. Magee its Hitting Well. The hitting of Lee Magee is one of. the few bright spots in the Cardinal club, dur- ing these dark days. Lee has connected for safe knocks in his last 17 games without a miss. On the reoent trip he punished the‘ horsehide to the tune of .400, getting 14 hits out of 35 times at bat against such pitchers as Lavender, Cheney, Richie, Lei- field. Benton, Fromme and Suggs. Lee's one weakness—if he has any—was his hitting. As a fielder he has few superiors. With his speed and his youth he must be regarded as a better fily chaser than Sheck- ard, who, despite his age, looks like the best left gmrdener in the parent body. Bescher also is & g00d one, but Magee looks better than Speedy Bob doing everything but stealing bases. In that department Bescher is supreme. And now it seems that Bresnahan will be farcead to leave Magee in left, although Roger was not inciined to put Piash there originally.

in Search Hedges Combs the Minors of a Backstop

Growing Corps of Young Pitchers Makes Necessity of a First- | Class, Experienced Catcher Almost Imperative.

By CLARENCE F. LLOYD. The annual quest of R. L. Hedges, owner of the Browns, for a first-class backstop, is on. For years it has been the contention of the followers of the team that the lack of a top-notch mask- man has kept the Browns from win- ning and despite efforts to bolster in this department no men of the Bresna- han, Archer, Stanage and . Sweeney stripe have been produced. In 1908 the Browns were knocking at the pennant door. After the season was over Hedges laid plans to grab a good catcher. Lou Criger, the veteran now serving as a Brownie scout, was obtained from Boston. He was picked as the man to put the Browns on the map. But Lou had been ill the season béfore and didn’t show as he was ex- pected. Next Jay Justin Clarke, unquestion- ably one of the best all-round catchers landed. When Hedges slipped Art Griggs to the Naps for “Nig” he thought he had pulled one of his prize deals. But Clarke, like Criger, had about reached the end of his string and he failed to help. New Material Is Fair. The Colonel has a couple of crack youngsters coming up for trial. But he doesn’t want to depend on the juveniles. Bob Alexander, unearthed by Jawn Mc- Closkey, has done well. He did most of the backstopping on the club’s pres- ent trip and officiated in most of the games that the club won. Catcher Croassin of the Binghampton (New York State League) team is said to be the best juvenile in those parts. He comes at a good price. Catcher McAllister of the Montgomery (Southern League) team is an- other member of the team still to report. They have good records in their respective leagues, but Hedges.will be the busy indi- vidual during the drafting period trying for others. There are several backstops now in the class AA leagues who would help in the game when in his prime, was/.

the | Browns. These men are not purchasable and the only chance to land them is via thé draft route. That’s what Hedges proposes to try. Three Desirable Men. Hedges hasn't intimated what big mitt artists he is seeking. But it wouldn’t be surprising if Pat O’Connor, the former Pi- rate, now with Kansas City; Catcher Wells of the International League or Catcher Owens of Minneapolis comes this way. O’Connor and Owens have had their trials in the big show, and as first-string men do not rank as top-notchers. Hedges is rely- ing on his youngsters to develop for duty in future years. What he needs is an experi- enced man to work next season and to han- die his excellent staff of young twirlers. Browns Play at Detroit, The Browns get going Thursday after two days of enforced idleness. They perform in Detroit Thursday, Saturday and Sunday. In- Cidentally the men af Stovall figured prom- inently in the baseball world during the playing of their last three series of games. They knocked the Nationals of Washington out of what slim chance Griff’s team had of heading off the Red Sox in the American League pennant. The team is due in St. Louls next week. The inaugural game of the home-coming will be against the Yankees, next Tuesday. It’s safe to say that supporters of the Sportsman’s Parkers will turn out strong to welcome home @ tail-end team that looks like a real ball club. Catcher Jimmy Stephens, who had been nursing an injured thumb in St. Louis, while the Browns were in the East, rejoined the team in Detroit Thursday morning. He an- swered a hurry-up call from Manager Sto- vall because Bob Alexander, the McCloskey recruit, injured a finger in Cleveland Labor day. ‘“‘Red’’ Smith, who, although serving his first season in professional baseball, has al- ready been promoted. Catching with -the Ben Millers last year, he was signed for this season by the Hannibal (Central Asso- ciation) team, where his good work attract- ed the attention of the Lincoln (Western League) team, which purchased his release. de has been hitting above .300 all season.

Now, the Pirates you must face, Roger dear, And you'll have to take a brace, Roger dear; For the fans are in a stew, They are feeling mighty blue And they think it’s up to you, Roger dear.

Fighting Ghost of Joplin Gets Australian Bid Offer Made Jeff Clark for Five Fights-in Australia Is Declined. Misto’ Jefferson the nom de guerre of “Fighting Ghost,’’ Clarke, who, under has been the medium of many a killing by the sports of Joplin, Mo., and who recently has been campaigned by Ref- eree Jimmy Bronson, also of Joplin, is climbing rapidly into notoriety. Fol- lowing his defeat of Joe Jeanette in a six-round bout at Pittsburg, Bronson received a wire from Australia from Hugh McIntosh guaranteeing the Mis- souri smoke a considerable sum for five bouts, to be staged in Australia, against opponents to be named by McIntosh. The offer was. declined. In a letter to the sporting editor of the Post-Dispatch Bronson writes: ‘‘The flattering offer to Clarke to go to Austfalia for five fights was declined by us, as we are campaigning for the middleweight title. We had already posted $1000 in Pittsburg to meet any fighter in the world at middle weight. This $1000 guarantees a side bet of $5000 which we are willing to risk against any- body making the weight. ‘“‘We decided, therefore, to stick American soil until we hear from challenge.’’ Clarke and Bronson are on their way to Joplin to rest up from their campaign, which has extended now over one month. Citizens of Joplin raised $1000 for the purpose of sending Clarke away where he could get bouts and show his class. Clarke has whipped them all on his trip. He weighed 162 pounds in his bout with Jeanette ,who stripped for that fight at over 195 pounds. Clarke jabbed Jeanette at will throughout the mill and won handily. Bronson declares all the middleweights of the country are afraid to hook up with his protege. on this ss — 4

John Horgan of St. Louis, the title holder, departs Thuraday evening for San Francisco, where he is to defend his laurels against Joe Carney, a former champion, Sept. 25, 26, 27. Horgan, despite the hot weather, has been practicing several: hours each day for the last couple of weeks. He expects to retain his title. En route, Horgan will play several ex- hibition matches to keep in trim. His first stop will be in Kansas City, while he has also scheduled® contests in Denver, the former home of Carney, the man he is to meet. Horgan expects to arrive i San Francisco about Sept. 15. If Californians take kindly to champlon- ship pool, it is probable that several other matches will be arranged on the Coast. Hor@in accepted the present offer because it was.better than any of the other bide. The champion has “he right to name the place of holding the contest. The “Banker’’ won the title from Carney and also defended it against Jawn Daly of New York in St. Louis last winter.

STRAWS SHOW THE WIND. DDS of 7 to 5, held by the money changers to be the proper risk on the Bostqn Red Sox, snould the Giants win the National League flag, tell the popular opinion, in advance, of the prob- able outcome of the 1912 world’s se- ries. In the minds of fans who have fol- lowed the recent careers of the two] clubs the Giants have as much chance to whip the Red Sox as a handless man has to beat a carpet. The belief is based on the presen: condition of McGraw’s pitching staf?, which may be described in mathemat- ical values as 1 plus. As the Red Sox staff, in the same terms, is 4 plus, and as the team back of these four is much stronger than that behind the solitary Giant star, the odds are unavoidable, to such as contemplate risking a meal ticket on the issue. + * a TESREAU McGRAW’S LONE ACE, | ages pitchers are in wretched state. Tesreau is the only sound one in the bunch. Marquard seems hopelessly gone, while Matty has won two of his last seven starts. Wiltse, Ames and Crandall are utter negatives. they winning only when the club bats out a victory for them. Nor can the tired-out members of the staff, Marquard and Matty, gain much relief. Their best efforts are needed to keep the present lead in the League race. Tesreau can’t do it all. om - 200 ABE ep EE

STOCKS RECORD HIGHER PRICES N WAL STREET = E Union Pacific, Reading, Ameri- cap Tobacco Lead the Up- ward Moventent. TRADING ON SMALL SCALE St. Paul Road Shows Excellent Earnings—Banks Shift Loans to Interior. By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch, #10, NEW YORK, Sept. 5.—The Evening} M. Post, in its copyrighted financial re- view today, says: “On a volume of business rather smaller even than that of recent days the stock market advanced this morn- ing tentatively and irregularly. At the higher midday level activity was con- siderably increased and further ad- vances occurred, part of the buying or- ders apparently coming from out-of- town sources. Before the day was over a dozen stocks had risen a point or more. | “There wag at no time, however, any genuine activity, and at intervals the market returned to the apathy and indifference which has become familiar. Politics had apparently ceased to be an influence, even the betting on the curb received no stimulus. St. Paul Makes Good Showing. “Among the railway earnings’ reports for July the St. Paul showing was con- spicuous, its net receipts being the rgest of any correspondifg mouth since the panic year. Most of the Na&thwestern systems are not yet mak- ing so favXrable a comparison, but the beginning of the spring wheat move- ment is yet to come. “The Bank of England's weekly state- ment reported further increase in re- serve, and in the ratio of that reserve to liabilities. “Its gjld holdings are now above 42,000,000. pounds sterling. Only on five occasions during the past 16 years—two of them in September, 1911, and three in June, 1910—has this total been exceeded: “Interior banks continued to lend here, and some large loans were made on the over-the-year basis. There was no special rise in rates, but the offerings on time were smaller. The banks again lost currency to the sub- treasury, the net drain since Friday being just about equal] to the $4,800,- 000 actual surplus which the banks reported last Saturday. Banking Position Strengthened. This development led to general dis- cussion of the probable changes to be shown by the banks at the close of.the week, the feeling being that the bank position would be considerably reliev2d by the shifting of loans to out of town instittuions, “In addition to this, the banks are ex- pected to benefit from the return of the cash paid out, last week to the great number of: people who left the city for a three-day reeess. The direct shipments of cash have been rather heavy and withdrawals by. certain trust companies, which reported..Jess than the. required reserve last week, have been consider- able. The market has been full of inter- sting cross movaments but the expecta- tions are that the banks will be-abi> o make a much stronger showing?on ‘at- urday than they did a week ago.” NEW YORK CURB GLOSE Specially reported G.

A round of the leading St. Louis banks and trust companies today disclosed, the fact that conditions are normal at pres- ent.as regards the transportation of the cotton crop in the territory usually served by the institutions in this city. While shipments have recently been at the average daily rate of $1,000,000, the deposits of the banks and trust com- panies have been s0 well maintain>d that the forthcoming showing under the next call for statements for national and state banking authorities will show an extraordinary degree of reserve strength. Bids of 5% per cent for three and four months loans, over-the-year money, were frequently heard of during the day. Regular cus- tomers found it a simple matter to bor- row on this basis, but new money was not so readily forthcoming. There was little said concerning demand loans. ST. LOUIS STOCK QUOTATIONS. Bid.

Liverpool cables were fully up to expectations, but the official weather forecast for showers in arts of the Eastern belt and West “exas were considerable, and it was re- ported that leading trade interests were again heavy sellers in the absence of a more active demand from iimese.

Wheat | 2 ned steady to firm in the local et and during the early pommel” a mest strength was display':d. This, though, was entirely wiped out in the late trading, when values slumped fully le on general selling, headed by important commission houges and indi- vidual traders in Chicago. Lats news was —o bearish on both wheat and corn. Ing s and Snow, the crop experts, were out with bearish reports on the Indian cereal and prices for coarse grains worked lower, closing “at or near the low level for the day. Pattsn of Chicago, who has just re- turned from Europe, was reported to be taking an active part on the Selling side. There was a total absénce of bull steam, however, and anything like ag- gressiveness on the part of bears would Goubtless havé résulted in a sharp recss- sion in prices, as sentiment here and in othet domestic grain centers is largely c favorable to the selling side. Outside of light showsts and some cloudiness in the Canadian Northwest, the weather may presented almost ideal conditions for in. Clear skies pre- vailed in the est and Southwest, ex- actly what is nesded for moving grain and promoting the growth and ripening ef corn. Liverpool responded in a measure to the et nt anges in this country on Wednes- day, but Continental cables were mixed, and news from abroad was of a rather bearish charact>r. Buenos Ayres closed weak at 2%c lower on Wednesday, on favorable Weather and crop prospects. Argentina shipments for the week are estimated at 800,000 bu, and corn exports at 5,950,000 bu. The Northwestern Miller, reviewing the outlook in its territory, says that rains early in the week have delayed harvest slightly and caused 2& slight lowering of quality to wheat in the shock.

Corn futures opened steady in the local market, but the strength was of short duration, as a flood of selling de- veloped in Chicago, which was reflected in a sharp recession in prices there and at other markets.

The Hustler. HERE is a good story concerning a certain trip of inspection, when Louis Hill and a party ef offi- cials were taking a peek at the sta- tion agentg somewhere along the line in Minnesota. At a station we may call Oscarville an agent, perhaps fore- warned, was observed frantically moving trucks and cleaning up. “There’s a hustler for you,” said on of the party. ‘ “Humph,” said Hifi.

At another station the agent met them smflingly, smoking a good cigar ang clad in his best clothes. He was frankly idling, yet nothing was askew. “Well, what do you think of that?” commented one of Hill's friends, “there’s an agent who hag time to loaf.” “Humph,” said Hill. A month later the loafer was pro- moted, “If a man can get his work done without doing it himself he’s the man for me,” was the explanation of the railroad president.—Metropolitan.

He Got the Name. SNOB was once put up for a prom- inent club where inen meet nightly to discuss political or billiard questions’ of the hour. Unfortunately for him he was not elected and his wrath was ter- rible. Forgetful of English manners and cus- toms he wrote an indignant letter to the secretary of the club, demanding the name of the member who blackballed him. The secretary’s reply was brief: ‘Dear Bir:—His name is Legion."’— London Tid-Bits.
