Sneed Blamed Capt. Boyce, After the elopers’ arrest in Win- _ §mipes, Capt. Boyce had the indict- — ments quashed and on the day this _ (was effected he was killed by Sneed, ~ who believed his victim had con- &epirea with his son in events pre- ceding the elopement. Mrs. Sneed is said to have testified be- “5 fore the grand jury that she loved Boyce pe * and that her husband had d. oled her af- — & ¢ection. After her return from Canada | she was put into the sanitarium again, and when she obtained her release by > habeas corpus proceedings she charged a . that she was treated cruelly in the —* —* manager of a ranch in the western part of the Dominion. At the time of the ” ® killing of his father he ¢ clared Sneed Le * had taken advantage of a def¢nseless i ' man, and said he would not return to ‘Texas then, because of the intense feeling. Besides his mother, Boyce is survived by three brothers, all wealthy cattle- men and bankers. Lynn Boyce, one of the brothers, tried to attack Sneed and his lewycre at Sneed’s trial for the kill- g of the elder Boyce, but was over- wered. Sneed’s, second trial for the ® previous killing had been set for Nav. 11. , On the night of Saturday; Jan, 18, feed shot Capt. A. G.

One of them was Boyce, who. _ he believed, had made the remark. | Sneed said he started firing as fast ‘as he could “on the impulse of the moment.” Feb. 29 the jury in the | Bneed case disagreed and was dis- charged after being out 112 hors. The jury stood seven for acquittal. Stirring incidents marked the trial of Sneed. Spectaters were searched on entering the courtroom because of the intense feeling aroused by the case.

We did not want the women to realize that they were being constantly shadowed. ’ “Then came the big clews—conversa- tions variously overheard between tne women. I cannot tell you just what acheme enabled us to overhear these conversations. Our people insinuated themselves into places where they heard the talk. Of course, we used . ‘stools.’ | “The first of these conversations was ‘to the effect that “Lefty” and “‘Gyp,” in ' their hiding places were ‘not lonesome.’ J }

Tt was learned that they were occupy- ‘ng an apartment from the back win- dows of which they could see tne mov- ing pictures in an airdome in the next atreet. It was learned that this apart- ment was over a laundry and that the ¥ name of this laundry was either the ‘a Brigkton, Bright or New Brighton. 3 An additional clew was that the fire- escapes on which the young men would git and watch the moving pictures were as of an extraordinary kind.

Both Prisoners Silent, Commissioner Dougherty sald that neither of the prisoners made _ the slightest comment after his arrest, nor during the motor car ride to headquarters, Their bearing at police headquar- ters was remarkable for its lack of bravado or appearance of sullenness over their capture. They looked seri- ous enough but acted quietly and were polite and correct in speech. For four and a half hours they were questioned, but neither broke down. Some valuable admissions are said to have been obtained, but nothing more, It was learned definitely that the men have occupied the Woodward avenue flat.for just exactly a month, having rented the apartment Aug. 15, paying $15 for the first month in advance. On the other hand it is believed that prior to that date they may have had quarters elsewhere. | because the’ detectives learned that under an assumed name they pur- chased their furniture on the install- ment plan July 25.to the amount of $329. The step which really led to their capture—their wives leaving New York last Tuesday and not returning, taking up their residence permanently from that time with the two fugitives ——was caused through the complaints of the landlord, He said he had been given to understand that the rooms were rented to a married couple and demanded to know why the wives of the young men 4id not come and live with them, So In order to remain in their hiding places, Louie and Gyp told their wives that they had better come ang stay there. Naturally the men 4id not mingle much with their neighbors. They did, however, have frequent men visitors and their young wives came to visit them at least twice a week, some- times three times. There were no drunken carousals at the flat. The only time that there was anything to drink was when one of the women would occasionally purchase beer. Whitman on Important Errand.

Schepps~ will im- plicate Becker by his testimony, but the Becker defense is said to have ob- tained affidavits that Schepps, in Hot Springs recently, said Becker had nothing to do -with the killing. To investigate this phase of the matter and to. get evidence to contradict such affidavits, the District Attorney is go- ing to Hot Springs. According to this theory of the plans of the defense, “Lefty Louie’ and “Gyp the Blood” were arrested at this time as oppor- tune witnesses {n Becker’s behalf,. tlie police having been in communication with the pair. They are experted to testify that Rose; Vallcn and Weter are the real culprits and that Becker is innocent,

— — “Police Could Get Them Whenever They Wanted To,” Says Whitman. District Attorney Whitman of New York was in St. Louis las‘ night on his way to Hot Springs.. His purpose in going there is to take depositions bear- ing on the prospective testimony of Sam Schepps in the Rosenthal murder case, _ When he was told by a Post-Dispatch reporter of the capture of Lefty Louie and Gyp the Blood the District Attorney said, “I am glad to hear it. I have said all along that I believed those two men were in New York, and that the police could get them whenever they wanted to make the arrest. “Their capture will make no difference in my plans for the next twe or three days. I shall proceed to Hot Springs and take depositions.”’ Whitman soon after -isited the Post- Dispatch office, where he read 4is- patches sent to this paper from its New York bureau, telling of the capture in detail. By means of the Post-Dispatch leased wire to New York he commun!i- cated at length with Assistant District Attorney Moss in New York.

HUNTERS BESIEGED "IN HOUSE AFTER A LAME MANS SHOT Fred Butenhoff, Whose Right Leg Was Broken by Auto, In- jured in Left Limb.

CHASED BY ANGRY CROWD

E. M. Zumwalt, Who Pired on Caretaker, and John Lavin, Taken by Mounted Police.

Angry St. Louts Qounty farmers yesterday afternoon surrounded the house where Elijah M. Zumwalt and John Lavin, hunters, had taken ref- uge, and dared them to lay aside their shotguns and come out. The cause of the hunter’s flight, and of the neighbors’ demonstration, was the shooting of Fred Butenhoff of Rich- mond Heights, caretaker of the Maf- fitt tract, by Zumwalt. Zumwalt and Lavin, whe had rushed uninvited into the home of Elliott Hughey, 7519 South avenue, remained in the front room there, and Zumwalt brandished- the shotgun at those who approached. While they were there, mounted policemen summoned by telephone, were on the way, and they soon after rode up and arrested the men. As the shooting occurred in the county, the policemen turned the men over to Deputy Sheriff Wengler, who took them to Clayton. Wife Gives Bone From Leg. Butenhoff, victim of the shooting, lives at 7425 Ethel avenue. Last Novem- ber he was struck by an automobile driven by R. BE. Funsten, and his right leg was broken. The broken bone did not heal readily, and the surgeons finally had to remove a ¢inch section of bene which they thought would have to be replaced by a strip of bone from his left leg. Otherwise, they said, it would be necessary to amputate the right leg. Mrs. Butenhoff then offered a Sec- tion of bone from her leg: —* JS 5 7 %. oats a os cee EE 1a 2 — Phin Me: — fas Ree ips pw * — =. Be seh A

Although St. Louls boys and girls have returned to school for the new term and are busy with their school duties, they have not forgotten the babies of the tenement and are still working to help the little ones. They realize, evidently, that the tenement babieg are not by any means out of danger, the danger of sicknescs and death caused by impure milk during the hot summer time, and they are zealous in behalf of these less fortunate children of the city’s crowded tenement districts. Their spirit of helpfulness is a splendid

HUSBAND CRUEL, SAYS WIFE IN CROSSBILL Mrs. Carrie Young Declares She Was Pulled Around the Room by Her Nose. Mrs, Carrie Young filed a cross- bill Saturday in Clayton denying al- legations in the suit for divorce filed by Frank R. Young. The wife’s answer charges her hus- band with extreme cruelty and with not contributing sufficiently to her support. She says his income is $200 a month, but that he gave her only $7 a week, the exact amount of her board. Money for incidental expenses she had to borrow from her father. At one time, she says, she used a nickel to telephone to her husband and for this recklessness he grabbed her by the nose, she says, and pulled her around the room, Mrs. Young says her husband is worth $15,000 and she asks alimony. One of his possessions is said to be a skating rink in Carlyle, Ill, which, ‘|}she says, is worth $3000.

KIOTO, Japan, Sept. 14.—The body of the late Entperor, Mutsuhito, was Placed tonight in the imperial mau- soleum &t Monoyama, an _ imperial estate about five miles from Kioto, with full rites of the ancient Shinto religion. Mutsuhito had been exceed- ‘ingly fond of the surrounding scen- ery and had expressed the desire that this should be his last resting place. =m an early hour in the day gré. (crowds had gathered along the road t6 Monoyama, hoping to get a glimpse of the funeral procession. The roadway to the imperial tomb / was hung with crepe, draped on white panels., A double line of soldiers and sailors flanked the route, which, cut- ting through famous tea fields, had been built up to a height of sixty feet in some places and terminated in @ court of honor two miles square in front of the shrine. “Jn the road had been -placed arc limps and braziers, the lights of waich were visible for Berne by Farmers. Unpee «rriving at Monoyama, the casks? wis removed from the train ané frased upon a funeral palanquin. This was borne by 100 farmers of Yaseo village, in gray hemp costumes, Approaching the /burial hall, the psneted doors were thrown open, re- vealing a stand on which the casket was placed. Prince @ushimi, cousin of the late Emperor, and Prince Kan- In, the representative of Umperor Yoshihits, and the princes represent- ine the other members of the Imper- ial family entered and took up their alloted places, while tre offic'als us- sembled to the right and left. A black ‘ourtain was dropped over the door- ‘way. The top of the palanquin was removed and the casket pisced on a carrier, which bore it to the tomb, all on the plateau bowing to the ground in final reverence. Prior to the Interment, @ great pro- Cession was formed at the station, In which the loca! authorities participated. All the ancient implements of war and ritualistic ornaments were carried be- » hind the casket. Sandals Carried on Table. Immediately following the palanquin ghamberlains carried on a low table a pair of imperial sandals covered with white damask satin. This is an ancient Custom; in olden times a boy attendant aiways followed the imperial palanquin carrying a pair of sandals. Amid prayers and the. chanting of _ dirges the processi® moved to the wile burial hall. The vau in which the Em- s body was placed is of great an- 4 tiquity. It is ciroular in shape, with three steps running around the side. The interior is 15. feet by % feet-in di- mension, while the outside diameter is 30 feet, and a large space of ground has been laid out around it as sacred. The interior is lined with granite, and at the four corners of the stone covering four clay figures were buried in ac- cordance with the custom of ancient times, when figures of men, girls or beasts were buried to guard the !m- perial body. .

They will find a retreat from the city’s lack of sympathy on Leon- berger’s 160-acre farm near Bates- ville, Ark. Last Wednesday Mrs. Wittman, dis- covering what was in hand, followed her daughter and Leonberger to the city hall, where they went for a third ees fe implore the license clerk to authorize them to marry. But even the magic number of three failed to soften the official’s heart. Mrs. Wittmann arrived in haste only a few minutes after the disconsolate couple had departed. The young couple obtained a lii- cense at Edwardsville and were mar- ried there. Mrs. Wittmann then re- lented, and instead of a soéolding, be- stowed upon them a kiss of blessing. Leonberger has worked two years as shipping clerk in a grocery store at 656 Skinker road. earthenware holders were then placed in front of thé tomD. Prince Kan-In read an address to the end and with representatives of the imperial family knelt and wor- shipped the spirit of, the dead. These were followed by the imperial princes and others present. The offerings were then withdrawn and the doors of the burial hall closed, concluding the burial ceremony. Fear has been expressed that others of the older gefierations of Japanese would follow the example set by Count Nogi and his wife in killing themselves as a mark of loyalty to the dead Em- peror. In view of this fear the new Emperor has made announcement that it is his wish that no more veterans take their lives. Ji om _" * UV. 8.

Dispatches from Chicago and from Fulton, > att relate that Miss Mary Z. Malone, "a Callaway County scnool teacher, was Siebold’s second wife. He married her August 27, it is charged, at her home in New Bloomfield, and took her to Chicago recently with him. He was arrested by Chicago policemen at 2956 Emerald avenue, on requests from the Callaway County authorities Mrs. Olga Mayer Siebold is the owner of the row of flats and stores in which the Khas her tome.

He got out in 7 years and a half, and told me he wanted to make a man of him- self. I thought he would do better, so I married him. He is a good book- keeper, and said he could make a good living for wus, but that didn’t influ- ence mé 80 much, for I have enough to live on. “Aug. 11 I found a letter in his pocket with the name of Miss Mary Malone of New Bloomfield, Mo., on the outside of the envelope. He said, when I asked him about it, that it was a business let- ter, and I let it go. Labor day I went to Pacific to visit a sister, and when I returned my husband had left. “I found he had gone to New Bloom- field, and by writing to the Prosecuting Attorney of Callaway County and to a mifiister, the Rev. Mr. Reynolds, I learned that he had been married there to Miss Malone. “I don’t know why he should have done this. He could have had a com- fortable home with me, whether he was working or not—and most of the time lately he was not, “It wouldn’t surprise me now to learn that he has other wives. He told me he had a wife in Detroit, who died. I wonder if she did.” Mias Malone of Prominent Family. The dispatch from Fulton states that Miss Malone comes of a prominent Cal- laway County family. According to the Prosecuting Attorney of Callaway County, Siebold, though not much more than 80 years old, has served a number of prison terms in Michigan, Iowa, IIli- nois and Missouri. His long term in Jetf- ferson City was for forgery and larceny. It is not believed at Fulton that Miss Malone knew of his prison record. His acquaintance with her is said to have started through correspondence. At the time of his martiage, it is stated, Siebold persuaded a >.w Bloom- field liveryman, T. C. Herring, to in- Gorse a $100 draft drawn by Siebold on ‘Anthony Matre of St. Louis, but the pa- per was returned as a forgery. Siebold said im Chicago that he would not return to Missouri without extradi- tion papers, and the Sheriff of Calla- way County has gone to Jefferson City to get such papers. Snowstorm at Denver.

After Youn g Right-Hander Bags First} Game, 3-2, Recruit Redding Loses “ Second to Braves, 1-2

BOSTON, Sept. 14. FTER pitcher Griner had handed the Braves a 3—2 walleping in the opening skit of today’s double-header, Manager Bresnahan trotted out another juvenile, pitcher Redding, from the Greenwood (Cotton States League) team, who was thumped, 11—2, giving the Card- nals ah even split in the Dill. Opposed to Griner in the first show was Mr. Dickson, who did remarkably well until the eighth round when the Cardinals hopped on to him for a pair of tallies, just. enough to give them, the contest. Dickson had the better of the hit argument, 8—7. “Buster”. Brown, an ex-Cardinal, was Redding opponent In the second fame. Inasmuch as his mates had piled up a five-run lIead in the first four rounds, he had easy salling and permitted scores in| only the fourth and eighth sessions. To assure the victory, however, the Braves ham- mered Redding -hard In the eighth and shoved over a half dozen more runs, Starting the first game, Dickson got In wrong by passing Ellis after Gilhooley had fanned. The Rube ad- vanced on a wild pitch and acored when Koney shot a single to center. Big Ed went to second when Sweeney fumbled Jackson’s return, but died there when Evans elevated fo Jack- SOD, , *-It remained 1—0 until the seventh wheh tlhe Braves collected a pair of runs and assumed the lead. For a starter, Hauser and Ellis watched MeDonald’s purty pop drop for a dou- ble. He moved up while Galloway tossed out Sweeney. Kirke then hit a double to right and Mac tallied after which Titus singled and Kirke paid off. Devlin also poled a single, but Maranville, a newcomer from the New England League, tapped to Gri- ner. Rariden was purposely passed and Dick nm rolled to Kelliher for the final a se of the round. The Braves enjoyed their lead a short ‘while, however, as the Cardinals jumped to the front in their section of the eighth. Bresnahan injected himself in the game to swing for Griner. He poled a gingle to right and sent Rollins in to run for him. Gitlhooley forced Rollins, but Elis’ single shoved Frank to third. While Dickson was tossing out Gallo- way Gilhooley scored and Ellis ad- vanced. Korey followed with a double and drove in Fillies with what proved to be the winning run. Geyer pitched the efghth-and ninth rounds and a fast play saved him from tying up the score... In the ninth, with on,» gone, Titus paraded. He was forced by Devlin, but Houser, batting for Ma- ranville, doubled to center and Devlin tried to score, but was cut down on the relays of Gilhooley and Hauser to Wingo, ending the game. A total of 16 base hits was made off Redding, whose doom was sounded in the very first round, when three runs were scored. Brown, on the ather hand, scattered eight bite over nine reunds and held the St. Louleans te a patr of S ANS Oor r Pal ercwoconweP>

NEW RULES WILL HELP: FOOTBALL, “HAM FISH SAYS ‘Former Harvard Star

Says } Offense Will Be Greatly BOSTON, Sept. 4.—The change in the . foothall rules giving an extra down and permitting the forward pass te be . thrown any distance within the field of play, and also 10 yards beyond the goal line, increases the strength of the of- fense to such a degrea that the de- fensive formations. will he completely changed to meet the strengthened at- tack. ft is more than Iikely that most of the teams will adopt the system now used at Harvard of giving signals an the defense, thereby letting the linemen and what they will do on certain Plays. The defense will be obliged to shift far faster than ever before and some meth- od of gtving signals on the defense wil] probably be used by all the big teams. Material Very Important. The question of material is uppermost in the minds of the coaches, and for the next two weeks all that is ay allable will be carefully scanned, so that by the fair idea as to the physica] merits of the candidates. The 11 men and the | substitutes who Play in the opening game are the nucleus from which the final line is picked, which tends to prove kow fmportant material is. This year, however, the size and speed of } the players ts of the Sreatest im- | portance. The ine mer will have to be more powerful to meet the rushing game which ts certain to result fram the extra down. ‘ A combination of weight and speed has always been desirable for a line Position, but it hag never been at such a premfum. The guard position, which has of late years been a sinecure, will regain some of fts prestige, as it is a vulnerable position for Short gains, and an average of two and a half yards a down will enable a team to advance the ball suecessfully. Beef Trust Line Needed. The result of the change im the rules ts that the Hnemen will be calle? upon to do twice the amount of work hitherto constd- ered necessary and wilt accordingty requtre tthe strongest kind ef physique to excel at their positions, The 170-pound tackle of last year is antiquated by the present rules and bigger players will be found im their piaces. The center position will be fitled by the same shifty type as lest year and will be used on the defense backing up the line of scrimmage, as more ground can be covered by this method of play. Of course, the center’s style of play wit! depend a great deal on his ability as a de © player behind the line The ends ‘and back positions are unchanged as re- garde the type of player. but al! positions will require players of more stamina and “ strength because of the increased require- ments of the game. Big Team Lines All Weak. Yale and Princeton are equally handicapped | by having only otte varsfty lineman to start the season with, whereas Harvard is slightly better off with the return of both tackles. | It had been hoped that Gardner, the star \ackle of the beginning of last season, who broke his arm in the Princeton game, would be able to play this year, but ft is now will be keenly felt. Harvard, Yale and Prineeten are well pro- |\vided with experienced back field and end material, amd the mafn efforts will be to- ward developing [fmemen. Of all the col- leges, Pennsylvania fs by far the best equipped to start the season, having 15 vet- erans to choose from. There is considerable dispute whether the [ long forward pass will do away with punt- Ing, but {it is searcely likely that any game af football can be evolved that would not | necessitate the services of a good punter. The new rules areée a welcome change from last year and should make a more in- teresting and exeiting game. The Rules Committee has continued the policy begun fn 1906 of making the game more fun to pity and more excitifig to watch, and as football ee eer nr ee Glen Echo Wins Last Match From Normandie, 36-15 Glen Echo golfers scored a decisive victory over the Normandie represen- tatives in the third and decisive match of the annual inter-club team series yesterday afternoon.

BOUT that “world’s greatest out- field’”’ the Boston Red Sox are ac- cused of having, the binoculars we have trained on that highly touted body of men have thus been unable to lecate them. Perhaps we might see them with a Lick telescope. Of course, it’s easy to detect Mr, Speaker; but he doesn’t focus in with these other little objects out in the garden, commonly identified as Lewis and Hooper. The fact of the matter is Speaker this season is the only big man in the Bos- ton outfield, Hooper and Lewis being in the .240 and .260 classes, or thereabouts. Speaker is right on the edge of the .400 division. + J TERRORS IN THEIR TIME, ROBABLY the greatest outfield of modern baseball times was that boasted by the Detroit team when MclIn- tyre, Crawford and Cobb were in their prime. This trinity of terrors formed an outfield that needed neither binocu- lars nor telescopes to ‘‘see’’—the naked eye was enough, for they were always “there. ~ fe * MORE HEAVY ARTILLERY. § Yep men who have helped Speaker do the “killing’’ of opposition pitchers for the Red Sox are Stahl and Gardner, both of whom are in the .300 brigade and — eae * ae « ARMY GAME DEAD FOREVER. Cc OACHES who are figuring that the new rules will bring a revival] of “army” football are figuring on chick- ens that will never hatch, in all proba- bility. i

i Four downs in which to gain:the re- quired distance of 10 yards, and the add- ing of a one-point inducement to the ‘bring back the “rushing”’ game to its ] pristine prominence. But said pristine prominence was produced by a quite different cause, in the early days of the game. In those times the push-and- pull game was permitted; the runner, too, could crawl along on the ground for a few extra Inches, unless pinned immovably; the runners could hurdie, and the heavy linemen were drawn back to mass on a given point of attack. * PUSH-AND-PULL NEEDED. HE fourth down may prove of but very little use to straight carrying tactics. No attack can march the length of the field unless the runner’s teammates are permitted to help him along. Even then the result might be dubious to- day. For in the old time, when elevens had only a five-yard distance to gain in three downs, an average of but 60 inches for each down, and could use all sorts of push-and- pull, mass on tackles, hurdles and what not, it took an extremely capable eleven to va- rade down the field and shove across the line for a score. NEVER GIVE UP THE BALL. U NDER the present system of four downs, the attack must average 2% yards for each attack or lose the ball, Also, none of the aid can be lent the runner which were in vegue during the army game days. The only point which leads to the belief that the rushing game may be used with bet- ter success than formerly is the removal of the forward pass restrictions. The use of this play may possibly be resorted to in order to keep the defense from closing up. But even this is dubious, as the dreaded chance of losing possession of the ball is the bugbear of all captains. * . . The chances are that kicking will still olay a very prominent part in the coilege game. The one thing certain is that teams will have a better chance than formerly to get across the goal if they happen to get pos- session of the ball within the ehemy’s 10- | yard line.

Tesreau Should Finish at Top of N. L. Pitchers Ozark Mountaineer, With Giants» Is Sensation of Parent Body.

Jeff Tesreau’s phenomenal winning streak, if maintained, will surely land him at the top of the pitching ladder in the National League this season, Tesreau. was slow in round- ing to, but the fans the country over now are familiar with what the mass. sive mountaineer from the Ozarks has done for the Giants in the final dash down pennant way. Tesreau’s mark is 17—5, a percent- age of .772,: which equals that of Mar- quard, 26—8. True, Marquard has worked in and won more games, but Big Jeff's winnings of late have really saved the McGraw entry, Lew Richie of the wubs is pushing Tes- reau, 16—6, but the Cubs have been losing of late and Richie stands an excellent chance of dropping back. On the other hand Tesreau is im- proving. So are the Giants. Steele leads the Cards, 12—11, Har- mon with 17—17 is the iron man of the club. Also the league. The fig- ures: . New York, lL.

1 Joe Wood Makes Runaway Race of A. L. Pitching| Boston Star’s Record of 31—4 Is by Far the Best in Junior Organization.

| There’s nothing to the race for pitching honors in the American League but Joe Wood. The _ speed- flinger of the pennant-winning Red Sox has a record of 31—4, which is so far ahead of all other marks that there’s no competition in the race. Eliminate Wood and there is little excitement for the runner-up posi- tion, Plank’s 22—5 is next to Wood, while Hall’s 17—6 isn’t far away. Dubuc’s record of 17—9, consider- ing that Jean is pitching for a team as low in the race as the Tigers now are, is surely praiseworthy. Hamilton, 12—11, leads the Brown- les. Powell's 9—15 is next. Benz of the White Sox has the honor of los- ing the greatest number of games. His reverses total 18. The figures: Boston, L. Pitcher. S Oren .. . ids Pitcher. ~ PCI Ct * ea a ae Colling .....

NEW YORK, Sept..14.—The official seal of approval has been placed on the I! sport. of boxing as has been conduct- ed in New York, by Sheriff Julius Harburger, who recently had some correspondence with Gov. Dix, re- garding the suppressing of the pro- posed Wolgast-McFarland fight. Sheriff Harburger attended the At- tell-Thomas fight in Madison Square Garden last night and afterwards nade this statement: “Before the boxing began I made a formal statement to the referee, I said if the affair developed into a brutal prizefight, I would stop it my- self, arrest the principals and arrest the referee, I think from my obser- vation of what happened that the af- fair was conducted in an orderly man- ner in strict accordance with the pro- visions of the law. “The bout, to be explicit was, in my opinion, a pure and simply boxing ex- hibition and instead of being a brutal affair, it was a contest that might be conducted in any respectable house- hold or in any reputable institution 290} devoted to this branch of the sport. I propose to visit every boxing exhi- bition under my jurisdiction, as Sher- iff of New York County, and will ex- ercise my authority in such a manner that brutality cannot and will ‘avt occur.’ SOX BUNCH HITS AND BEAT YANKS CHICAGO, Sept. 14.—Keating weakened in the sixth and seventh innings today - and

— on — Games Responsible for Failure of England's Athletes

G. Foster Sanford, Well-Known British Publication That J. Bull’s Athletes Are Not ‘Try- ing” in Half Their Home Races, Yale Authority,, Declares in

— e e — in American authority on the 8 Sandford, the former Yale footballer. In the course of a long article in Sporting Life of London, Mr. San- ford says: “Twenty-five years ago England ' better facilities and three timos + many athletes in training 4 merica. Now America has ag good facilities and probably three times s many athletes as England. For- merly England knew more about training than America. Now America knows as much about training 45 England. Formerly England trained e same as she does today. Now \merica has learned all England had teach, and has thrown in improve- ments here and there. England is a slave to custom. America only re- tains a custom so long as it is the best. Up to twenty-five years a&0 ‘America had comparatively few ath- letic organizations; these afforded small chance for competition. When meets were held they were at wide- ly separated places. Consequently our men lacked experience and often ran green. Competition has always been available in England and up to the last few years her athletes ran with a better understanding than Ameri- cans. How Times Have Changed. “Not long ago England held Amer!i- ca safe at the distances. Now Ameri- ca has a score of runners who are within a few yards before or behind ‘Ingland’s best individuals in these events. The explanation for this is— first, the law of average, and second, he Marathon craze, from which we have emerged with any number of ance men. Consequently, if we were to go no further, we would find this comparison would sum up as fol- lows: Instead of America being a5 one is to three with inferior equip- ment and poorly trained, we find that the last twenty-five years have given America a favorable ratio of as three is to one, with equal facilities and superior organized training. “But England's position of pre-eminence has not been sacrificed to dilatoriness or waning ability. She has kept up her usual pace of development. but from the above causes someone has gone faster and that one hag just commenced to go. In another four years I shall be honestly surprised if Amer- ica loses a single event, from a jump to five miles, inclusive. Certainly the conditions at present are such that if Engiand and America were to come together in -a dual meeting it would be no contest, ‘What I have said about conditions in America some of you may have perhaps to accept because of your inability to check me up. I am now going to discuss the Eng- lish athletic system, and here at least you will know if I err. I tell you that there is no system in vogue on the face of the earth where professionalism masquerades ag amateurism as it does in this United King- — — ATHLETICS BEATEN , TWICE BY NAPS CLEVELAND, Sept. 14.—Cleveland took both halves of * double heaaer from Phila- delphia today, 5 to 3 and 4 to 2, the second game being called at the end of the fifth inning because of darkness.

FE ae BRT — FTER lstening to excuses for ani explanations of their defeat at the Olympic games, the English have at last been rudely answered br — NEW YORK, Sept. 14. ‘rt. This bold critic is G. Foster dom. Proof?—You shall have it, Let's peep at what goes on at, say, some of the meetings I could name, We enter — the heats; we see thousands of people stand- ing In the enclosure and we note there is @ terrific hustle and hubub. We hear a jar- gon of sounds. With difficulty we listen it out and we have something like this: “Two to one ber one—two to one bar one. I'll take three to five the favorite—even money on the field—even money on the field—and this from a hundred or more throats at once. Faults, Not Form Developed. “Here is a thing that stands in the way of your athletic prowess; here is a thing that makes professionals at heart of prac- tically every’ gthiete in England outside of university circles, Mighty few men are triers without their bit down—‘making their exen’ they call it, and this if they can by winning a heat only, and then not going through in the final—this in order to save their mark. How about Chien system of sav- ing? In America, every time the gun cracks every man is a trier. Not so here. What effect does this have upon your national! abil- ly? Do you think you are getting your maximum of efficiency from your athletes? Not at all, I think that 831-3 per cent of your athletes dwarf their possibilities through practising deceit-in form, they develop faults instead of form. “Suppose Mike Murphy. the greatest living trainer, were brought over here. The inter- club reversals of form would drive him fig- uratively crazy in a month, No, Bngland. you don’t want any trainer, no matter how good or great. Your system of bookmaking, betting, saving, pulling for mark and the like leaves no room for a trainer. How is he to tell whether what he sees you do is a virtue or a fault? No Chance to Beat America. “England, a glance at the records of your past and present champions will prove con- clusively that your athletic prowess has not waned, and that if you can rid yourself of the conditions above referred to so that your men are competing for the prize, and for that alone, you may in time reduce the game to a condition of every man a trier every time. Then, and only then, can you have efficient training. ‘“‘Under these revised conditions you will take a tremendous leap forward, but this can never be. It does not lie within your English breast even to contemplate discard- ing an ancient custom, objectionable though it be. Everything considered, I advise thar you forget the phrase—or, at least, use it less often—‘Sport for sport’s sake.’ And if you are afraid of being beaten, Mr. Lehmann has given you the proper advice: ‘Withdraw from international! competition.’ For I pre- dict that the full time available under the rule of perpetuity will never again see you cock of the athietic walk. This is not to your discredit. America has 90,000,000 peo- ple, and before another five years have rolle@ over our heads will have 10 ath- letes in the field to England's one, all under proper supervision, | and in the hands of — trainers.’ — — — OLDFIELD SETS NEW RECORD FOR A MILE CLEVELAND, Sept. 14.—Twice to- day at North Randall, near here, was the automobile record for a mile on a circular dirt track broken.

——— ire tte ae 2 COLONIAL CO. HAS. NEW FLANDERS LINES The newest automobile change in * St. Loufs is the placing of the agency here for the Flanders electric car and the new Flanders Six, a gasoline car. They are manufactured in De- troit. ‘The new agent is the Colonial Automobile Co., 3948-50 Olive street. Henry Debold is president and gen- eral manager and Louis Goodhart vice-president and sales manager. The eompany will distribute these lines in West Illinois and the’ east half of Missouri. The contract is for 800 of the Flanders 6-40 cars, 200 of the Flanders 6-66 seven-pas- senger touring cars and 125 Flanders Colonial electric cars. The salesrooms are to be hand- somely fitted and the 1913 Colonial electric demonstrator will be here Thursday. The other lines will be shown at the sixth annual Auto Show at Forest Park Highlands. AUTO FIRMS IN NEW HOMES The Locust street automobile col- ony promises to continue to grow. Two new firms are to be located on that street in a short time. One of these is the Oldsmobile Co. of Mis- sourt, of which Gratiot Cabanne is manager. That company has leased 3206-8 Locust street and is now hav- ing it fitted up as a model sales- roém. ‘The other company, a factory branch, has not yet made its an- nouncement. The Hudson-Phillips Automobile Co. has taken a long lease on the motion picture show building on North Grand avenue, just across the street from the Odeon. The premises are being fitted up to be one of the handsomest show rooms in the West. John H. Phillips is president of the company.

~ 7 ; SOLD SIX The sale of five Henderson cars in one week, and the demonstrator only’ on ex- hibition since day, Sept. 6, is the rec- ord of the Model Automobile Sales Co., the distributors for this car in Missouri and Southern Illinois. This car, although introduced to the automobile world but a short time, is now one of the best known on the market, and has been in- troduced by newspapers only. Those who purchased cars are T. H. Selkirk, Theodore’ Koester, H. F. Dilser, W. F. Whitcomb .of Monroe City, Mo., and Harvey Nash of Joplin, Mo. LARGE PEERLESS LINE Anticipating the possible addition to the Peerless line of trucks of a truck of smaller capacity than the 8-ton by the Peerless Motor Car Co. at Cleve- land, the Brown Automobile Co. will not renew its contract with the Federal Motor Truck Co. at Detroit. Allen Baker, former salesman for the Brown Automobile Co., is interested in the formation of the Federal Truck Co. of Missouri to sell the truck for Missouri. INCREASE GOODRICH PLAN At the already extensive plant of the B. F. Goodrich Co., Akron, O., although the largest rubber factory in the world, several more acres of floor space will be added by the time snow flies. Work is already begun on a six- story cffice building which, with a two-story addition to the present quarters, it is hoped will be adequate for handling the rapidly growing business interests of the concern, SHOWING 1913 PEERLESS The Brown Automobile Co. has re- ceived a 1913 Peerless demonstrator, with electric self-starter, and is show- ing it to a large number of prospects.

Have you that really approached the Paige at a thousand dollar price? If you have, come and tell us about it and give the Paige another good looking over just to make sure about it. The PAIGE Car gives more real automobile value, judged from any or every viewpoint, for a thousand dollars than any other automobile ever built. We make the statement so plain for $1000? » $1000 ever seen any other car because it is true. We dn’t tell you the Paige is a regular $2000 or car. Itisn’t. But it is just the best auto- mobile that can be built and sold for $1000. Come and examine the Paige in every detail of construction Compare the Paige with other cars selling for an equal or higher price. Come ride in the Paige — test its power, silently it runs, see how | 7 see how smoothly and comfortably it rides, see how simple its operation is. If you aren’t very familiar with automobiles, bring with you some- one who: is—bring an expert if you know one — come study the Paige, then consider the character and stability of the organization which builds it, and we will leave it entirely to-your judgment as to whether it isn’t the car you want. The Paige is built in 5-passenger touring model, fore-door roadster, mile-a-minute type raceabout, and two beautiful models, electric lighted and completely equipped, La : Coupe, $1500, and Sultana Sedan, seating five, $1600 Regular equipment on other models includes genuine mohair

J UTZ. 3206 Locust St. ‘Motor Co, | Motor UTUMIN FOREST 10 BE MOTI OF FALL AUTO SHOW First Exhibit of 1913 Cars at Forest Park Highlands to Be Leading Event of Veiled Prophet’s Week. At a late hour Saturday afternoon ar- rangements were made by the Show Committee of the sixth annual Automo- bile Show to allot the spaces Sunday morning at a meeting to be held at the Army and Navy Club, 3004 Franklin avenue. By Tuesday afternoon every automo- bile dealer in St. Louis will be advised as ‘to what space he has been allotted at the show at Forest Park Highlands, Oct. 7-12. The Show Committee -onsists of H. B. Krenning, chairman; Frank R. Tate, Samuel Breadon, W. C. Anderson, John H. Phillips and T. L. Hausman, and Robert E. Lee, show manager. Applications for space are about 40 per cent greater than the amount which is for sale by the Show Committee. To meet this it is probable that.the Show Committee will have to build additional roofage at Forest Park Highlands. The displays of accessories, it has been de- cided, will .be put into the concession buildings in the northeast corner of the Highlands. A long line of commercial vehicles will be parked in front of these buildings, with only an aisle between. Carpenters are busy at the Highlands this -week building an enormous floor, which is to be placed in the theater to level it up and make it available for automobile display space. This floor will cost In the neighborhood of $1800. Mass of Autumn Follage. The contract for the decorations for the show was let Saturday afternoon to the Metropolitan Floral Co. The decora- tions will consist of a profuse use of 4reen and autumn leaves, oak bark and twining grapevines and grape leaves. These will be trained over rustic ‘trel- lises, so that all of the woodwork under the pavilions will: be entirely hidden under masses of foliage. The entire ef- fect will be such as never was seen in St. Louis before and the cost will be several thousand dollars. The big front entrance and rotunda is to be trans- formed into a tropical garden with a large fountain in the center and a sunken lake in which game and goldfish will be seen swimming. For Monday night 6000 engraved invitations will be sent to the most prominent people in St. Louis, invyit- ing them to attend. Tuesday night the show is to be kept open until aft- er midnight to accommodate the peo- ple who have waited downtown to see the Veiled Prophet’s parade. Thurs- day afternoon and night there will be a reception by the exhibitors and their ladies to the women drivers of St. Louis. It is now found that there are more than 600 of these. By next Thursday St. Louis will be plastered all over by the beautiful show posters gotten out by the Show Committee. These show a remarka- bly ‘pretty girl at an automobile steering wheel with a characteristic automobile headdress, the coloring in which will be sharply set out by a mass background of delicate blue shade. x First Show of 1913 Cars. The unusual feature of the St. Louis Automobile Show is in the fact that the 1913 models of all the cars repre- sented in St. Louis will be seen for the first-time at the St. Louis Show. The rule heretofore has been that the new models are first shown at the big New York Show, which does not come until January, but the St. Louis deal- ers have “put one over” on the whole trade by holding their show in the fall. The fall show idea has been ap- proved by most of the manufacturers and dealers and the idea which origi- nated in St. Louis last year is being copied by such cities as Indianapolis, Cincinnati, Chicago and elsewhere, though none of them have gone into the plan on the eldborate scale un- dertaken by the St. Louis Automobile Manufacturers and Dealers’ Associa- tion. It is estimated that there will be shown at Forest Park Highlands 350 automobiles and trucks at an average valuation of $2000. That would mean an assemblage of $700,000 worth of automobiles in one spot and a further exhibit of nearly $100,000 worth of accessories, tires and supplies. BIG MILWAUKEE RACES START NEXT TUESDAY The first event of Milwaukee's speed carnival, the Grand Prix race, will be run on Tuesday, Sept. 17, over a course 8.2 miles. in length. The cir- cuit which was improved at a cost of more than $25,000, has proven itself to be one of the speediest of road courses in America. That the race for the Grand Prize Cup of the Auto- mobile Club of America will be a slashing contest from start to finish is made certain by the character of the drivers who are entered in it. David Bruce-Brown, the two-time winner of the Grand Prize race in America, will be seen at the wheel of a monster Fiat machine. Ralph de Palma and Hughie Hughes, the two drivers who captured the loftiest hon- ors at Elgin, are entered. De Palma will drive a Mercedes, and Hughes will be seen at the wheel of his wire- wheeled Mercer; Teddy Tetzlaff, the best known of Western drivers, will be a team-mate of Bruce-Brown, and Caleb Bragg will also drive a Fiat The speed king, Bob Burman, will be at the wheel of a Benz machine. Er- win Bergdoll will be a teammate of Burman’s, as will also Joe Dawson, the winner of the last 500-mile race at Indianapolis. There are several other noted drivers who have made tentative entries whose names will be announced before the entries close on Monday. The Vanderbilt Cup race, Sept. 21, has a notable list of drivers, many of whom will be seen in the Grand Prix also. Among the pilots are Ralph Mulford, Knox; Hughie Hughes, Mer- Mercer; Teddy Fiat; Ralph De Palma, Mer- |

EXCHANGE “IS ENJOINED E. E. Felkel Gets Order Tempo- -rarily Restraining Suspension. A temporary frestraining order was fasued by Judge Shields yesterday pro- hibiting the Merchants’ Exchange from enforcing an order of suspension against Pdward EK. Fetkel, one of its members. Sept. 19 was fixed as the time for argu- ments to mike the injunction perpetual. Felkel, who is president of the Missouri Commission Co., was recently expelled from ‘Change because he published an article in a trade paper criticising the administration of the Merchants’ Ex- chang®. In his injunction suit, which was filed Thursday through the law firm of Jud- son, Green & Henry, he avers that the action suspending him was illegal and was fone without jurisdiction. Chris- tian Bernet, John I. Messmore and Mar- shall Hall, officers, are included as de-

“> /VSCOUNT'S HER COMING TO MARRY ANEW YORK GIRL

Hon. Oliver S. B. Brett to Wed Miss Antoinette Hecksher; Troth Once Broken. — |

Special Oable to the Post-Dispatch and New York World. by Press Publishing Co. Copyright, ae 2 ia) LONDON, —X 14.—The Hon. Oliver Sylvain Baliol Brett, eldest son and heir of Viscount Esher, left London to- day on the Campania for New York, where he is.to marry Miss Antoinette 1, and | Heckscher, only daughter of Mr. Mrs. August Heckscher. His younger brother, Capt. Maurice V. B. Brett, re- cently became the husband of Zena} Dare, an actress. No member of the Brett family was; at Euston Station te see him off and hé was tncommunicative. It is wneertain, he said, whether his | father, the Viscount, or any member of) the family will attend the wedding, but it is extremely unlikely, he added, that Zena Dare and her husband will be present. The prospective bridegroem denies that his family is hostile to his mar- riage to the New York beauty and heir-} ess. He made his first visit to New; York in February of 1910 soon after his defeat for Parliament on the Liberal! ticket. On his return to England it was reported that he would marry Zena Dare. Early in 1911 it was aanounced |, that he was engaged to Miss Heckscher, who is a sword fencer, a horseback rider and a suffragist. On Christmas eve came word that she had broken the engagement on account of his liking for chorus girls. She then went to Paris and later to London Where it is now said the affection be- tween. them was renewed.

Mother of Bride-te-Be Objected to Cherus Girl Proclivities. NEW YORK, Sept. 14.—The Heckshers are an old Philadelphia. family who moved to New York a few years ago. [It was stated last fall when the breaking of the engagement was reported that one reason therefor was the opposition of Mrs. Hecksher to the chorus-giri pro- j clivities of the men of the Brett family, 4 | and Deaths.

— — including the Viscount who long was, Lora High Constable of Windsor Castle. It is said that this acquaintanceshiy, with Gayety girls in the last 25 yeas has mitigated against his entrance i’4to London’s most exclusive society.

ST BY WIFE IN STORY OF LOVE FOR GIR Mrs. Dunn Assents When Hus- band, Dismissed From Church, Asks if He’s Forgiven. GOING TO OLD HOME “Did No More Wrong Than Smoking Cigarette if | Were Smoker,’’ Says Preacher. The Rev. William T. Dunn, 49 years old, leaving his Granite City pastor- ate because of his lovemaking with 19-year-old Estelle Massey, paused in the task of moving yesterday aft- ernoon long enough to say to a Post- Dispatch reporter: “What I did was Ro more wrong than it would be wrong for me to smoke a cigarette, if I were a smok- er.” He added that he was not a smok- er. Dunn, his wife and six children, were in the midst of boxes, roped-up bundles and burlap-covered furniture when the reporter called. The wife listened, seemingly without disap- proval, while the minister told of his car rides and buggy rides with Miss Massey, and of the kisses and caresses which he said they ex-~- changed. Miss Massey was organist in his church, the Dewey Avenue Methodist. Promptea by Wife. At times Mrs. Dunn prompted her husband or corrected minor points of his story. When he assailed the characters of some of those who had found fault with his conduct, she nodded her head emphatically. “Some people are talking about ‘me,” said Dunn, “who are not half 60 good as they try to make it appear. I never have been away from my family over night since I have lived in Granite City. Can all those who are abusing me say as much?” The family, Dunn said, was on its way back to Donnellson, Ill., where he held a pastorate for five years before his transfer to Granite City two years azo. In June, 1910, he was tried before the congregation of his church in Donnellson, on charges which Mrs. Ida Girard, a young di- vorcee who had formerly lived in his home, was said to have made against him. Dr. William A. Allen, Clyde Jett and Herbert Kessinger stated that Mrs. Girard had told them a shocking story of her life at the minister’s home. Lire. Girard was summoned, and repudiated the story which she 1d been quoted by the three men as having told them. Said Woman Was Angry. Dunn said at that time that he | not doubt the men’s statement that the woman had told them such a story, but he said the story was ‘alse, and that Mrs. Girard had been ingry because, after her marriage nd separation from her husband, the Dunns refused to take her back to ve with them. Dunn yeaterday said he owned property in Donnellson, and that he intended to return there and live un- til he could decide what to do nert. He said he would like. to become an evangelist, but did not know how his prospects of doing such work would be affected by the disclosure of the past week. “I feel like the one to whom Christ said, ‘Go and sin no more,’” he re- marked. “I feel that I am forgiven, my wife has forgiven me and her, haven’t you?” The wife nodded as- sent in the curiously meek dnd im- passive manner which marked all her part in the conversation. He said his love-making with the young organist originated in a call which he made at the home of her mother, Mrs. Joseph Mikschi, when he sat alone with the girl on the porch. She expressed her wish to visit the parks in St. Louis, and he took her some days later to Tower Grove Park. He told his wife of this, and she said she should have gone alone. Took Wife With Them, later they took her with them. The exchange of endearing wérds, and of love notes, began at that time “I love you next to Jesus,” he wrote in one ofthe notes. A few times, he says, he kissed and caressed her. He never talked to her of running away with him, he says, and marriage was not spoken of between them. He says he encouraged her to go with young men, because, as he was mar- ried, his love for her could lead to nothing. After they had gone to Mra, Dunn, confessed their indiscretions and re- eeived the wife’s forgivenness, Dunn said, he did not meet Miss Massey again. “I could hold her hand in }mine now without a wrong thought,” he sald, “and if I were to drop dead, I know I would go to Heaven.” Besides the six children of his pres- ent marriage, the minister has three grown children by a former marriage. He is a grandfather. The young woman was at home last night, guarded by members of the family, who did not wish her toe go out of their sight. Two members of the congregation accompanied .the minister to the train which took him to Donnellson, their chief purpose be-. ing to see that he went alone His family remained behind to take care of the household goods. Members of the congregation told of Dunn’s last sermon,’ which was preached in the church last Sunday night In spite of the command of sev- eral parishioners that he stay out of

Himself, that she might have the mate she loved, was told in the courtroom of Municipal Judge Fry, today. James BF. Carabine, his wife, Stella Ruth, and Oscar Galley, the other man, were the principals in the drama. Mrs. Carabine had married Galley without firet obtaining a divorce. She was charged with bigamy, and he with living with her. “Judge,”’ said the husband, “I don’t want to prosecute them. I love the woman and I don’t want to see her go to jail. I am 4 years old, she but 24, Galley is 2, and they love each other. I wasn’t good enough for her, Judge, I never made her happy." “I want her to have her chance for happiness, your honor,” Carabine add- ed, “so I ask that you let them go. I am willing she should get a divorce and marry this man. I give her to him willingly, for I know she will be hap- Oier than she was with me.’ Judge Fry said he would take the plea of Carabine under advisement and continued the case until Monday.

— — — — — - a eee oe OS APPROACH GRANTED "BY EAST ST. LOUIS The ordinance vacating East Side Streets and alleys for the construction of the Reber-Associated Retailers ap- proach to the free bridge, passed Friday night by the Bast St. Louls City Coun- cil, was formally accepted yesterday by Acting Mayor Gundlach in behalf of St. Louis. This completes the necessary routine matters in cennection with the disputed route and officially locates the eastern approach. The ordinances passed by the Munic- ipal Assembly prior to the resent pri- mary election, at which the bond issue was defeated, authorized and directed the Mayor to request the passage of an ordinance vacating the Bast, Side Streets and alleys to be traversed and to accept the grant in behalf of St Louis. In compliance with the same ordinances the legal department of St. Louis last week purchased and paid for the strip of ground 2200 feet in length | to extend the Rebér approach across the Terminal tracks in East St. Louis by an elevated structure, as recom- mended by the Associated Retailers. The purchase price was $18,000, The strip was deeded to St, Louis by tne Denverside Connecting Railway. Gundlach told a Post-Dispatch reporter 60 HURT IN FIGHT AT IRISH FOOTBALL GAME Display of Flags Starts~Genuine Battle at Belfast—25 Taken to Hospitals.

Celtic supporters unfurled a green and white flag and started to parade, Lin- field partisans displayed. a Union Jack. Immediately stones, bricks and clinkers were hurling through the air. The police were powerless. The opposing mobs, theusands strong, surged toward the playing field, where a battle was fought. The report of a revolver caused many to leave the grounds, but the stone throwing soon was resumed inside and outside the grounds, More revolver shots were fired, but police reinforcements stopped the fight. Twenty-five persons were taken to hospitals.

HEAR CHIEFS WILL DESERT A Reports That Federal Leaders in Northern Mexico Will Join Revolutionists. By Associated Press. MEXICO CITY, Sept. 14—Despite the / precautions taken by the police, the ¢itu- }ation here tonight is tense in view of the anniversary celebration tomorrow might of Mexican independence. Though the Zapatistas, who threatened to enter the capital tomorrow, are far away, it ls feared that partisans will start riots. Persistent rumorg ere current that @n or before Monday, the independence anniversary, the military element, hith- @rto loyal to the Madero Government, particularly the forces operating along the Mexican border, will take sides With the leaders of the present rebel- lion. It is known that Mexican secret serv- foe men at Juarez today telegraphed President Madero that ithey feared a counter-revolution in the Army of the North. : * Federal Leader Inactive. Failure of the Federals to pursue the rebels active east and west of Juarez, which is headquarters of Gen. Victorinano Huerta, ‘commanding the army in the North, seems responsible fer the rumors. In this connection it is pointed out that troops were sent into Sonora, via the Arizona border, only on* orders from Mexico City, following demands from Washington that Americans must be protected. Mentioned for President. It is pointed out that Gen. Rabago, with the main body of the Federal cavalry, remains inactive at Casas i Grandes, while rebels continue to op- " erate near Ojinga and along the Ari- gona border. Rabago is under Hu- erta, who has ben mentioned fre- quently as a Presidential possibiity. The itncident in the Chamber of Deputies yesterday when President Madero was hissed and the name of Former President Diaz cheered, has caused a stir among army officers. By Wire From the Washington Bu- reau of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, Sept. 14.—The Man- ning and Mackintosh claim of $106,- 190,204.89 against the Mexican Gov- ernment held by J. P. Morgan and an ‘American syndicate will never be presented to Mexico for settlement by the United States government. This the Post-Dispatch is able to state on high authority. Earnesto Madero, Minister of Finance of Mex- fico has announced that the claim is invalid. The Manning and Mackintosh elaim 4s British—that is, the principals were ' British subjects. It grew out of moneys and. supplies advanced by Manning and Mackintosh during Mex- ' feo’s war with the United States. 7 The buying of the British claim by an American syndicate, was the main part of a plan for grabbing for the United States all of wer Cali- fornia say the agents of the Madero government here. These agents have » kept the State Department posted re- garding the scheme, which was this: To ask President Madero to settle the claim in full, to do which would wreck the government. On the refusal of President Ma- Gero to pay, and the refusal was ex- pected, the matter was to be pre- gwented a second time through the United States State Department. In - gase of failure then to get a settle- ' ment the syndicate was to offer “‘to @a@just.” The only settlement which the syn- Gicate would agree to according to the Madero agents was to be the ced- ing of lower California to the syndi- cate. It is known that this government long h@® coveted lower California. The syndicate hoped to get the penin- - gula, sell it to the United States for ' “twice what it cost and pocket $1065,- - 190,204.80.

TOPEKA, Kan., Sept. 14.—The annual car shortage in Kansas is on earlier than usual this year, despite timely warnings from railroads and efforts of shippers to escape this yearly annoy- ance, Along the line of the Santa Fe offi- cials of the roads held meetings early in the season with farmers and grain deal- ers. An informal agreement was made that wheat would be stacked and threshed on specified dates and offered for shipment at a certain time. The plan has worked very well, through faithful co-operation of the railroads and the shippers. In some parts of the State the failure to get cars and bunching the offerings of grain has caused all sorts of confu- sion. At Bloom farmers filled the ele- vators and all available cars. Then the wheat brought to town was dumped in a pile and 10,000 bushels are now on hand, piled up beside the railroad track. The railroads insist there are enough cars to move the crop and that the trou- ble comes from lack of co-operation. They say that shippers do not load or unload cars promptiy and connecting lines do not use proper dilligence in re- turning equipment. General prosperity which enables most of the wheat growers to hold their crops is helping to relieve the congestion, but the situation is serious enough to keep the railroads busy night and day with everything on wheels at work.

Real estate operators say that a re- vival of more than ordinary importance is developing in realty and business circles in St. Louis. This opinion is based upon several large projects, re- vealed during the week, for downtown business structures, and upon other indications of activity. Among them are plans for the im- provement of two prominent Twelfth street corners with elaborate new build- ings. The largest and newest project is be- ing discussed for the southeast corner of Twelfth and Locust streets. This structure is to provide for a hotel with na grand restaurant and cafe. Construc- tion will represent $1,000,000. The site is owned by the Culver brothers, who also own the northeast corner of Twelfth and Olive streets, giving them control, with the exception of an intervening 25-foot strip, of the entire half block on the east side of Twelfth street, between Olive and Lo- cust streets. ~ The Holbrook-Blackwelder Real HMstate Trust Co., it is understood, is managing this project. Bo reticent are the promoters as to their plans that it could not be ascertained defi- nitely whether the building is to in- clude the entire half biock er only the Twelfth and J.ocust corner. A seven-story building now vacant occupies the Locust street side of the half block, while tempornry two-story buildings are on the Olive street quar- «ter of the block. Large struct: *es have been projected Several times {:." the Olive street site, but each time they have collapsed. Hietcl Is Probable. Plans he+. beenwrawn for an elab- orate buili..n:; at the southwest corner of Twelftii ond Olive streets, a 16 or 18 story structure being considered. This will be either .a hotel or a mer- cantile building, the former being preferred, it is said, if the proper tenant can be found., The premises are occupied by the Merchan's' Tlotel block, an anctent five-story «t:octire, the returns from which are ‘i...’ -c;uate to the enhanced ‘value of tiie site.

To Be Built at Cost of $230,000 Between 21st and 22d Streets for Dr. T. M. Sayman. An eight-story building to cost $230,000 has been designed by Albert 8S. Grover for Dr. T. M. Sayman for the north side of Franklin avenue, between Twen- ty-first and Twenty-second streets. The building will occupy a lot front- ing 120 feet on Franklin avenue and ex- tending 155 feet in depth to an dlley in the rear. It will occupy a position sim- ilar to that of a corner building, as it will have a 2-foot driveway extending entirely along the eastern side. With this driveway the building will be light, and ventilated on three sides. The fourth, or western, side will also re- ceive light from a court facing the three-story building on the west now oc- cupied by Dr. Sayman’s company. ° The building is to be eight stories and basement in height, of reinforced con- crete skeleton construction, with con- crete walls and exterior brick walls. The building is to be heavily construct- ed for manufacturing and warehouse purposes. The exterior will be faced with a dark red-brown brick, with gran- ite and terra cotta trimmings. The building will be supplied with four elevators, two of them on the front side of the building for the accommo- dation of passengers to the roof garden and one large elevator on the east gide, which will serve as an exit for the pas- sengers. The basement will contain a series of large fireproof vaults jn which to store drugs, oils and spices. The building will be equipped with an elec- tric-lighting plant. The building will be heated by steam with the vacuum system. There will be ad ~~ w 4 we Fee AO Ch 671 Ns, Ate Naren jab int rs OE . , POTS TE ae ae Sx nee . .

The differ- ent portions of both the main offices and the various offices and departments throughout the building will be connect- ed with an intercommunicating _ tele- phone system, and also a pneumatic- tube system through which papers may be quickly transmitted. The contract has been awarded -+o the W. M. Sutherland Building and Con- tracting Co., who are now proceeding with the work.

MORE STORES FOR TENTH AND LOCUST There has been a decided movement of high-class retail merchants to the vicinity of Tenth and Locust streets in the last 60 days. Whelan-Aehle-Hutch- inson Jewelry Co. has opened a beauti- ful store, which is one of the most up- to-date west of New York. There are many novel features in it that are new to St. Louls. This attractive store is the magnet for many similar stores which are in the course of remodeling. Mr. Kamin- ski, formerly of Withmar, Gray & Ka- minski, will open a handsome store at 319 North Tenth street for the sale of china and glassware. This store was leased by J. A. Goodwin of Papin & Tontrup, for a term of years. This leaves only two stores for lease in the neighborhood and negotiations are pend- ing for both of them and may be closed at any time.

Eee te OO — — —— — — — — — DEMAND FOR LAND IN PROPOSED NEW F, Felix Scalzo Buys Ground at Eighth and Howard Streets From Board of Education. MANY OFFERS REPORTED Company Promoting Terminals Has Obtained Options on Many .Parcels in District.

As indicated from the transfers of holdings there during the week, spec- ulators already have made their ap- pearance in the area of the indepen- dent terminal system, projected by the Newport Warehouse and Ter- minal Co. The most notable transfer was that to Felix Scalzo, the fruit king, of the southeast corner of Eighth and How- ard streets, for $4100, the grantor being the Board of Education. Another speculator had spied the holding and had offered Charles P. Mason, secretary and treasurer of the Board, $4000 for it. In compliance with the laws, the holding wag ad- vertised and sold to the highest bid- der, Scalzo’s rival declining to bid more than his original offer. The let runs 86 feet*8 inches on Eighth street by 125 feet on Howard Street. A one-story building of nom- inal value occupies the site, which will be improved with a business block if the terminal project should collapse. The holding at 1131 North Broad- way was purchased at the Court- house by Conrad i, Schopp of the Conrad Schopp Fruit and Produce Co. for $5800. The sale was made by Charles E. Giraldin, trustee, the prop- erty formerly being owned by the C. H. Evans Realty Co. Since the announcement of the plans of the Newport Warehouse and Terminal Co., agents report a host of offers for holdings in the proposed terminal area, extending from Mound to Carr and from Broadway to Tenth street. According to one of its representa- tives, the Holbrook-Blackwelder com- pany, which formed the, Newport company, already has obtained op- tions on many parcels in this district, WESTMORELAND LOT SOLD The Mercantile Trust Co. reports the sale of lot U in Westmoreland place. It is the sdutheast corner of Westmore- land place and Union avenue, the pur- chaser being Walter H.

Substantial Revival of Operations Is Foretokened by| Unusual Building and Speculative Activity in Various Parts of the City. | William Maffitt, vice-president ¢ the Mercantile Trust Co, has 1 4409 West Pine boulevard, nerl occupied by Mra, Daisy 8S, Niedring- haus. CHANGE HANDS Subsidiary of Commonwealth

Within the last week, the St. Louls realty market has received an impetus which foretokens a substantial revival of operations in this sphere. Concerning investments, there is a distinct demand for high-grade build- ings in the business centers of the city, and for attractively situated modern flats and apartments. A resumption of building operations “has created new market strength which is daily becoming. more marked, accord- ing to realty men. As to downtown St. Louis, this is es- pecially true, the Railway Exchange building, the Laclede Gas Light Co.’s building, the new 10-story Cella Hotel, or the American Hotel Annex, as it is to be known when it is completed at Sixth and Market streets, and the 2- story Commonwealth Trust building, constituting,’ in addition to many mi- nor operations, four sky-scrapers of the first magnitude, virtually under way here, whereas a year ago not a build- ing in. this category was building. Plans are being exploited for numer- ous other buildings of this class includ- ing, in several instances, hotel struc- tures of monumental proportions, which it is believed soon will augment a swirl of operations in downtown St. Louis. Speculative Advantages, The enchancement, as a result of the upbuilding, has awakened capital- ists to the speculative advantages of carefully selecting investments in this area. A strong featu of the situation is the flood of capital available for high class building operations in the St. Louis field. With the demand for holdings in the eastern part of the city, in both north and south St. Louis, the railroads, so potent a factor in the St. Louis realty market preceeding tse World’s Fair, are again scented. The movement in these ‘enters was started witb the tncorporation of the Newport Warehouse and Terminal Co., a subsidiary of the Holbrook-Blackwel- der Real Estate Trust Co., which seeks as an independent terminal and factory domain 2 city blocks lying between Broadway and Tenth street and Carr and Mound streets. This obviously is the inception of a buying campaign of the railroads, the termina! facilities of which have become Inadequate to the greater growth of the city. A corresponding demand for fac- tory sites, with shipping advantages, will be coincident with the establish- ment of new terminals, the absence of requisite warehouse and factory accom- modations having retarded the growth of the city, which is now bursting its bounds. Many Apartment Houses. Countless apartment buildings and flats ranging in price from $5000 to $500,- 000 are projected, the tendency of both renters and investors being toward this character of houses. Construction in the residential dis- tricts, which was retarded at the out- set of the year by inclement weather, according to Alexander M. Cornwell, vice-president of F. J.

Loeal Money Market. ‘ The second week in September is never a very crucial period with the St. Louls banks and trust companies, although it is usually the case that shipments of funds to the territory con- tiguous are either —— their maximum or maintaing an even level at that time. In 1912 there has been a slight gain in shipments; but this does not have any great degree of significance, because in many sections there have been few withdrawals of any large size, and in approximated 10 per cent of their nor- mal as gauged by previous years. This robably accounts to some extent also or the lack of calling of loans, One prominent Fourth street house with an unusually good credit has fol- lowed the recent policy of paying off any and all loans advanced to as much as § per cent. The independence of the investment banking firm in question has of course served to strengthen its credit, while giving the local institutions larger cash reserves. ST. LOUIS STOCK QUOTATIONS. — Bid.

Trading was large- y in the hands of professionals, The Government crop report, which was posted at the close of the sessirn on Monday, was probably the most paportant single item in the news budget. This document was beerishiy , construed, both on wheat and corn ‘but owing to the fact that it had been discounted, it failed to cut much fee in the actual] drift of the market. An indicated yield of riearly 8,000,- 000,000 bu for corn could not be other than extremely bearish, and after the posting of the figures, the longs in hat cereal were noc very enthusias- tic, but there were ups and downs, owing to the operations of the pro- fessionals, who found good oppor- tunity to get in and out, so that fluctuations were sharper than might have been expec Another bearish factor was the enormous rung of wheat locally, at primary points generally, but more particularly in the Nerthwest. The movement of spring wheat is on in ng earnest, oe there is no check n sight, unlesg it comes through a famine of cars and space in which to store the great flood of grain, Stocks are beginning to reflect the movement in large increases, This is particularly the case in the North- west. Stores at Minneapolis and Du- luth show tremendous gains for the week, and will continue to de so until the height of the movement has been reached. Chicago, §t.

TO WIFE WHEN SHE FLOPES THIRD TIME Walter Evans Took Her Home in Chains First Time She Went Away With Burley.

Mrs. Walter Evans of Carroliton, Ill., has eloped for the third time with William Burley, and Walter doesn’t care if.she never comes back. To show his indifference on this point and his general good-will, he accom- panied them to the station when they left the third time, expressed the hope that they would live happy ever after and waved good-by to them. Evans had made sure, before seeing them depart, that they did not have any of his money with them. He /eould worry along very well without his wife, but he needed his money to live on. The first time they ran away: they took $500 of his along, and Evans pursued them relentlessly un- til they were captured and brought back in chains. It was a town spec- tacle when the Sheriff marched down the main street with the man and woman handcuffed to him. After Evans had recovered $280 of the amount, which was about $280 more than he expected to see again, he was so grateful to them for bring- ing that much back that he forgave them and took Mrs. Evans home with him. Burley was kept locked up a few days and then released. Evans skipped out again and were found at Roodhouse and arrested and brought back, but again Evans for- gave his wife on condition that she quit eloping and stay at home, and Burley again escaped prosecution. But Mrs, Evans never did like Car- rollton and last Monday she told Evans she thought she would run away with Burley again. Evans said very well and went.to the station with them and saw them start to ‘Jerseyville. | In Jerseyville Mrs. Evans went to work and Burley went to live at a boarding house. Every evening after Mrs. Evans’ work was done, they met and went uptown and saw the moving pictures and other sights of a great city, and seemed to be very happy, but Friday afternoon Burley left on the 3:30 train. Mrs. Evans was at the station and bystanders heard Burley tell her to take a later train and meet him some-

where up the line beyond Carrollton. Mrs. Evans left on the 7:30 train, go- ing in the direction Burley had gone.
