PISTOL CLOSE BY ARTIST'S BODY ON HIGH RIVER CLIFt Discovery Near Grafton Reveals Suicide’ or Murder Several Months After Occurrence. MAN IS NOT IDENTIFIED Brushes and Colors on Almost Inaccessible Bluff Show He Was. Painter. The body of an artist, who either had killed himself or been murdered, was found Tuesday on an almost inac- cessible shelf of a cliff overlooking the Mississippi River,. a pile and a half south of Grafton, Ill. An inquest will be held Wednesday by Coroner Bray of Jerseyville to determine the cause of Geath. . The cliff along the river at this point rises almost perpendicularly 100 feet from the river bank to a shelf about 30 feet wide, and extenfs upward a sheer 50 feet. The ground is covered with thick underbrush. George Reddick, 20 years old, a trap- per living ina tent on the river bank half a mile north of where the body was found, was out Tuesday afternoon set- ting his traps. In the belief that the cliff. which is rarely ever visited, would be a good trapping place, the trapper laboriously climbed to the shelf where at the high- est point, overlooking the C., P. & St. L. railroad tracks, 100 feet below, and near the edge of the precipice, he found the body of a man lying on the ground, The right arm was outstretched and a re- volver lay near the hand. Apparently the body had been there several months. The man’s coat was rolled up and formed a pillow under his head. The clothing was of good ma- terial. A square handbag contained sev- eral paint brushes, oil cans and colors. In the revolver were three empty cartridge shells, another had _ . been struck by the plunger and failed to ex- plode, and the hammer was cocked. No bullet marks or evidence of external violence which would lead him to sus- pect murder could be found by Red- dick. The artist wore a blue shirt, brown trousers, low-quarter black shoes size &, black socks, and a Stetson hat No. 6%. The coat was of black material. Reddick notified the authorities at Grafton and several persons went to the cliff late Tuesday afternoon. Cause of Death in Doubt. Opinions differ as to how the man reached the spot where he met his death. It is not believed that he fell from above, because the body was found too far from the face of the cliff. The body was not removed and the clothing was not examined to see if pa- pers could be found which might lead to identification. This was left for the Coroner. The Coroner and his jury will have to make the difficult climb to the shelf to view the body. WRITES WIFE “NOBODY LIKES ME,” KILLS SELF Mrs. Lizzie Miller, 1021 Park avenue, at 7 a. m. Wednesday found the body of her husband, John C. Miller, 44 years eld, an iron worker, on the floor be- tween a gas range and a kitchen cab- inet. Four gas burners were turned on. The keyhole and cracks about the door and windows had been stuffed with paper. Mrs. Miller told the police she knew of no reason why her husband should end his life. The police found a note in the kitchen in Miller’s handwriting. It was addressed to his wife, and said: “T will say good-by to all. There is no time in this world for me. Nobody likes me. Lizzie, you will now have time to—(the word is blurred, but resembles ‘“dress’’). You can have a lemon.” eeeE_ ee ae nee eens and only added together. Louis field completely. homes.

Officials realize that any outward exhibition at this stage, either of con- dolence.for the fallen Madero regime or satisfaction in the accession to power of resented by the Mexican people and do much to prejudice the status of Ameri- cans in Mexico. For the present the attitude of the the Diaz :«volution can be accepted as completely*successful. Ambassador Wil- gon and the other members of the diplo- matic body of the Mexican capital will immediately recognize Gen. Huerta as the de facto leader of the temporary government. This must be done that look after the interests of their own peo- ple. But what will follow that action must be determined by the develop- ments of the immediate future, for there must’be substantial evidence of the per- manence of the new Government and its ftability to bring peace out of the chaos which has prevalled in Mexico before po- litical recognition may be extended.

MEXICANS KILL U. S. INSPECTOR Wife Rides 25 Miles Only to Find Him Dead; Rangers Pur- sue Slayers. WASHINGTON, Feb. 19.—Details. of the killing by Mexicans on the Texas border of American Customs Inspector John S. H. Howard, and an: unnamed prisoner and the serious wounding of two other officials, were reported to Sec- retary MacVeagh by Customs Collector Harvin of Eagle Pass, Tex. It was cold- blooded murder, said the Collector. Customs officials on Feb. 10, at an isolated spot on the frontier arrested two Mexican smugglers whom they were taking to the Marfa (Tex.) jail when they were intercepted by companions of the smugglers, who fired a volley, wounding Customs Inspector Joseph Sitter and ‘Inspector Harvick of the Texas: Cattle Association, besides killing Howard. For 15 hours the wounded men lay helpless and unassisted. Mrs. Howard made a heroic effort to save her hus- band’s life, riding frantically for 25 miles on horseback, only to find him dead. Collector Harvin foresees a hard bat- tle if the posses of Texas Rangers and citizens find the culprits.

HUERTA ALWAYS A LOYAL DIAZ MAN MEXICO CITY, Feb. 19. RIZZLED, a veteran cf a (5 score of campaigns, indeed one of the tried ‘ignters and leaders of the deposed Forfiro Diaz himself, Gen. Victoriano Huerta, after the enforced retire- ment of the man who ruled Mex- ico so long, was readily accepted as a valuable ally by aiadero. Huerta, it would appear, took the high ground that the will of the people should always direct his po- sition reganding the warring fac- tions in Mexico. While greatly attached to Diaz personally, he gave his allegiance to Madero and directed the Federal forces in the uprisings of ‘Jrozco and the Zapatistas and early in the campaign of Felix Diaz, who succeeded in besieging Madero in his own palace. So Huerta has fought effectively for the regime of Diaz’s successor. Yet many are now recalling, in view of the events of yesterday, the words of farewell that Gen. Huerta spoke to Porfiro Diaz when the aged and broken “iron man’”’ of Mexico was departing from his native land to his Spanish exile. Huerta commanded the _= soldiers who escorted Diaz to Vera Cruz, the seaport, and standing before the assembled soldiers, told his old “chief, with every outward show of emotion, that at no time in the revolution that had displaced him had he (Huerta) or the Mexican army been other than loyal to their old chief.

SE | 7 MINERS KILLED BY GAS EXPLOSIO

One Man Injured in Accident at Eldorado—Rescue Workers Go to Scene. Seven miners were killed Wednesday by an explosion in the Seagraves coal mine at Eldorado, Ill., and at least one man was injured. Twelve members of the Illinois State mine station at Benton departed at noon to go to the mine to enter the shaft and find whether other miners were entombed. The accident was caused an piosion of gas near the entrance, soon after the full force of miners had been icwered imto the shaft. It is said that about 150 men were at work at the cf the explosion. The Mayor of [ld rescue by eX- time rado told the Post- iNspatch by long distance telephone at 1 c clock that it is believed that all of the men have been taken out of the mine and that none were trapped in distant rooms.

oT. LOUIS GIRL, 17, IN NEW ORLEANS Miss Mary Robinson, Seminary Student, Elopes With an Automobile Dealer. News of the ‘marriage of Miss Marv B. Robinson of 5566 Page boulevard to Pernard W'. Fitzgerald, an automobil- dealer of New Orleans, reached the ycung woman's friends in St. Louis Wednesday. At the same time, in a telegram from New Orleans to the Post- Dispatch, came details of an elopement which was both interesting and surpris- ing to friends and relatives of the cou- ple, particularly to Fitzgerald's aunt, with whom he resided at. 722 Jefterson Davis parkway, New Orleans. Miss Robinson is. 17 years old and is considered a beauty. She is the daugh- ter of J. D. Robinson, formerly of the Scuthern Hotel and now connected with the Illmo Hotel in East St. Louis. Mr. and Mrs. Robinson moved to St. Leuis from New Orleans about a year ago and went to board with Mrs. Anna Jackson at the Page boulevard ad- dress. ing a seminary in Virginia, joingd thei in June. Went There for Mardi Gras. About three weeks ago, Mrs. Jack- son told a Post-Dispatch reporter, Mrs. Robinson and her daughter went to New Orleans for the Mardi Gras fes- tivities. Last Friday Mrs. Jackson got @ letter in which Mrs. Robinson ex- pressed a fear that her daughter was about to be married. Beyond saying that she and her sister, a resident of New Orleans, were opposed to the match, Mrs. Robinson gave no further details, Mrs..Jackson said. The story telegraphed by the Post- Dispatch correspondent at New Orleans is this: There.was a theater party in Miss Robinson’s honor the other night, and Fitzgerald was invited. Before depart- ing he told his aunt to leave the fire banked in his room, and to set out a bottle of wine and two glasses, as he would be out late, and would bring a friend home with him. Left Show to Be Married. When the play was well under way, Fitzgerald and Miss Robinson § slipped out of the theater, sped in an automo- bile to Gretna, a suburb of New Or- leans, and were married by Justice Danauer. Fitzgerald's aunt was astounded when he arrived with his “‘friend,’’ but she readily forgave and blessed them when explanations had been made. A touring car was presented to the bride by her husband's business associates the fol- lowing day.

GIRL WEDS USHER, if QUITS HIM IN DAY; | MOTHER WILL SUE Annulment of Hasty Marriage Will Be Asked by Parent of 17-Year-Old Daughter. Mrs. John Birmingham of 4348 Itask: street is preparing to bring suit to an- nul the marriage of her daughter, Jo- sephine, 17 years old, to Jess Langley, 18, whose address both the mother an: wife say they do not know. Langley was an usher in a vaudeville and moving picture theater on Sixth street, when he met Miss Birmingham. He had gold braid on his hat, gold braid on his coat at the shoulder points, gold buttons on the coat and, on occasions, golden words of romance could flow from his tongue. When Josephine, sent shopping by her mother, stopped to see the show. Langley was the usher who showed her to a seat. Never had Jess seen stich a lovely blond vision and never had Jo- sephine encountered such a polished and urbane usher. Josephine went often to the Sixth street theater, and one day Jess pro- posed that he quit work for a day and meet her at 9 a. m., saying they would make a round of all the “‘movies.”’ They visited only one picture show. Then they went to Clayton and were married. Returning, they went to the home of a friend of his in South St. Louis, The next morning, shé says, he asked what she had done with that 15 cents he saw her have on the wedding day. When she demurred, she says he declared: “Say, our honeymoon is over. If we're going to eat today, we've got to get out and dig.’’ Wedding Ring gy fa Color. The angry bride was fingering her wedding ring. When she pressed it, the ring. was bent out of shape, she Says. She looked at it more closely. Twelve hours’ wear had played havoc with it. ‘Tt was not nearly the same color it had been the day before,’’ she says. “That’s a 10-cent ring,’ she says she exclaimed as she fled: from the house with her 15 cents still her own. That was Dec. 21, and she has not_seen Jess since. She had a letter from him sev- eral days ago in which he informed her that he would never be a married man

St. Louis, Mo, July 20, 1912.—"“We

noticed smal] lumps breaking out on my oldest boy’s legs. They started to spread, and then sores broke out all over his face. The sufferings were terrible. One of the remedies we used was » which is very widely advertised for eceema, but this irritated the sores so badly that the child couldn’t stand the pain. Finally our physician recommended Resino!l Ointment, which immediately cooled and gave the child relief. So I got a cake of Resinol Soap and used it for his bath, and in a week's time his skin was clear and al! of the sores were healed.” (Signed) Mrs. F’. W. Turner, 1668a S. 8th St. Resinol a safe skin treatment OU need never hesitate to use Resinol Soap and Resinol Ointment. There is nothing in them to injure the tenderest surface. Resinol is a doctor’s prescription which for seventeen years has been used by eareful physicians for all kinds of itching, burning, unsightly skin affections. scribe Resinol freely, confident that its sooth- ing, healing action is breught sbout by agents wo bland and gentle as to be suited to the most delicate skin—even of a tiny baby.

The work was to have been completed by Nov. 1, 1911, he gaid. The present emergency gate is 10 feet above the bed of the river and during extremely low water the city water sup- was to extend under the bed of the river several feet south of the tower and 10 feet lower tham the present gate. When the’ workmen reacned the shore line it was found that the tunnel was out of line and did not meet the shaft by about 2 feet 6 inches, according to Wall. The construction company then had to lay out the lines again and dig part of the tunnel again to make it meet the shaft. The false excavation then wns filled up with concrete and the new tunnel was connected and completed about Jan. 1, Wall said.

I do not believe any Governor would let political considerations influence his de- cisions, and surely he would not be moved by pique or selfish personal mo- tives. “The idea of home rule legislation is to give St. Loufs control of its affairs, and so long as the laws of the State are obeyed and the Police or Excise boards are not used or permitted to be used for improper ends, the State authorities have no concern.”’ o Fixing of Police Pay. On the question of giving the Munici- pal Assembly the right to fix police salaries and determine the organization of the department he thought there could be no objection, if the assembly will see to it that the work of the de- partment is not impaired by the cur- tailment of the force or possibly, through internal dissensions, subjecting the departsaaent to demoralizing influ- ences. ‘St. Loufs pays its police out of its own revenues,’’ said the Governor, “and St. Louis is entitled to determine the compensation of the police.” The Governor added that he knew lit- tie about the makeup of the Police De- partment in St. Louis, but believed the department was one-of the best in the United States. New Commissioners. Temporary new Police Commissioners for St. Louis will be announced by the Governor in a few days. Former Cir- cult Judge Jesse A. McDonald, Samuel B McPheeters, John J. Sheahan and Charles P. Williams are conspicuously mentioned for places on the Police Board. The tenure of the new commissioners will be limited to the date in which the pending home rule bills are intended to go into effect. There is no emergency clause to the bills and they cannot pos- sibly become laws until about June 20, makes it playable by any and every one. Why should not all the pianos sold be player:pianos, excepting that they cost a little more? But this is drifting from the subject. The point in mind is—there remains but twenty more of these player-pianos to be sold throughthis liberal of liberal plans. Hence, the time to act is here. There can be no further delays. Success comes where it is courted and deserved Everything that could be suggested as being of benefit to those who should want to buy a good piano, was put into this co-operative plan to make it the success it has been. : | First. Every effort was put forth to bring the price down to the very Jast dollar. poration. _-_ ee oe ee ee | ee om me -~_- =| -— > ~-~— 7 puts ithe player-piano in yourhome the same asthe. — piano—take your choice — There is no cash payment to be made in buying under this plan. The terms under this co-operative plan are: One dollar and twenty-five cents a week, if you decide upon - a piano, or two dollars a week if you decide upon a player-piano. Or, putting it another way—you are privileged to take one hun- dred and ninety-five weeks (three years and nine months) to pay for your insigument, it matters not which instrument you select —the piano or the player-piano. The five dollars you pay is paid as a privilege to par- ticipate in the many advantages of this sale —more like an initiation or entrance fee with this difference—that your five dollars under this plan are credited to the price of the instrument you select. This leaves a balance of two hundred and forty-three dollars and seventy-five cents, if you select a piano, or a balance of three hundred and ninety dollars if you select a player-piano. How to obtain one of the instruments on this associate plan To take advantage of this unusual sale, all you have to do is to send or bring in five dollars, for which we will at once give you a receipt. This five dollars is credited to your account on the co-operative books. The co-operative plan then allows one hundred and ninety-five weeks’ time in which to pay the balance—at the rate of one dollar and twenty-five cents » week if you select & piano, or two dollars a week if you select a player-piano. There are no further pay- ments of any kind to be met. You can make your selection at once—to morrow—next day—next week or any other time convenient to you. It will be delivered immediately—next week or next month. The time you select your instrument and the dafe of delivery is wholly optional with you. If not convenient for you to personally select your instrument, we will make the selection for you under your instructions, with the understanding that, if at the end of a thirty days’ trial it is not satisfactory, we will refuad your money. / Throughout this sale, the store is remaining open until 9:30 o’elock.

The balance on the player-piano is payable 2 do weekly, WITHOUT INTEREST. This gives you 195 weeks time in which to pay for . the piano or the player-piane. Second. Every week’s extra time that was possible to add to reg- ular piano terms was added—the time being stretched out to one hun- dred and ninety-five weeks (or forty- five months) as against thirty-two months—the usual terms. Third. The usual form of piano guarantees was entirely dropped, and in its stead, a guarantee as strong as could be written in the English lan- guage, was jointly signed by both the manufacturer and ourselves (as shown herewith) and given to the purchaser of each and every instru- ment, Fourth. It was thought that by offering to give the purchaser his money back would best assure him that he was getting a ‘‘square deal,’’ and this also’ was included in the plan. So to every purchaser under this co-operative plan we said: ‘‘ Try CO-OPERATIVE GUARANTEE We, Marshall & Wendell, manufacturers of piano Number », and the un- dersigned sellers jointly euarantee said piano for the period of five years from date.

UTILITIES | WHO KILLED YOUNG ~ BILLIS ASSURED! WALSH REVERSED Unanimously Indorsed by Joint Conference of Democratic Members of Assembly. Special to the Post-Dispatch. JEFFERSON CITY, Feb. 19.—Gov. Ma- jor’s public utilities bill, providing for drastic regulation of all‘the public serv- ice corporations of Missouri, was called for engrossment in the Senate today, following the unanimous indorsement of the bill by the joint conference of Dem- ccratic members of the House and Sen- ate. In the Democratic conference, which began yesterday afternoon and insted until 2 o’clock this morning, Sen- ators Lysaght of St. Joseph and Carter of Clark. and Representative Dumm of Cole County made a hard fight on the bill. Senator W. G. Busby of Carroll and Representative W. P. Phelps of Jasper, who introduced the bills, defeated the cpposition at every point in the long battle, The influence of Senator Reed, who lined up against the measure, was felt only slightly. Several times during the debate enemies of the bill attempted to force an adjournment. Representative Hay of Callaway, leader of the ‘‘dry” forces, finally moved that the adjourn- ment resolution be declared out of order. “T sat through the home rule caucus vesterday,” said Hay, “and I took my medicine. ‘“‘Now I think the opponents of this bill ought to give everybody a chance to dis- cuss it. The Democratic platform de- clared for a public utilities bill and the appeal to the party spirit contributed largely to the administration victory. “The bill carries an emergency clause, but this was amended to make it effec- tive April 16. Pass Amendment. Another amendment extended the pass privilege to railroad bondsmen. The bill deals rigidly, however, with the question of free transporation. It forbids,an em- tloye of one railroad from riding free over another road and otherwise re- stricts the pass abuse. The steam railroad interests under the leadership of Martin L. Clardy, head of the Missouri Pacific’s lawyers, made the last serious opposition to the bill. The Burlington railroad was a fac- tor but its corps of attorneys who came to Jefferson City in a private car, were unable to stem the tide that had set in for the enactment of the utilities law. The corporation agents declared that the bill was more far-reaching than- either the Wisconsin or New York acts and tended to provide an ‘unreasonable’ regulation of public utilities companfes. Gov. Major expressed gratification over the action of the caucus. ‘It shows,” he said, “the Democratic members of the Legislature are resolved to carry out all the pledges in the Demo- ‘cratic platform.” The commission is to consist of five members appointed by the Governor at a salary of $5500 a year each, with a sec- retary at $3600 and an attorney at $4500. Provision is made for the employment of expert accountants, engineers and clerks. Governor’s Plans. The total cost to the State, according to figures compiled by Gov. Major, will be about $50,000 a year. This is less than the sum required to maintain the Board of Railroad and Warehouse Commissioners, which is to be abolished. Two members of the Raflroad Board, John A. Knott, Democrat, and Frank Wightmann, Republican, are to serve on the Utilities Commission for four and two years respectively. Gov. Major says the other three members will be selected without regard to politics. “Tt will be my aim,” said the Gov- ernor, ‘‘to get the very best men pos- sible to carry out the work of the commission and it will be the most im- portant public work ever carried on in Missouri. ‘If necessary I can choose the com- missioners from outside of the State. Ability of a very high order Wwill be the chief requisite to a position on the board.”’

WEDNESDAY EVENING, FEBRUAKyY 19, 1913.

Supreme Court Action Based on Letter—Shot Brother of Girl He Admired. The Supreme Court at Jefferson City Wednesday, reversed and remanded the case of Albert G. Butler of St. Louis, convicted of killing Eugene Walsh at Bruno and Sulphur avenues, three years ago, and sentenceed to 10 years in the penitentiary. The case was reversed because the jury had been permitted to give weight to a letter which was not introduced in evidence. The letter, which was the di- rect cause of the killing, was one that had been written by Butler, and fell into th@ hands of members of the Walsh family. In the letter Butler had made a reference to Miss Nellie Walsh, with whom ‘he was in love. He was called to the Walsh home one Sunday afternoon to explain statements in the letter. A quarrel resulted, and

| Eugene Walsh, in his room upstairs, shaving, went down to settle it. He was shot and killed by Butler. Butler at one time boarded in. the Walsh home. His attention to Miss Walsh was distasteful to her and mem- bers of the family. At the trial it ap- peared, from the testimony, that his | love for the girl was so intense that he was not entirely responsible for some things he said and did. HUSBAND BREAKS DISHES, SHE SAYS; ASKS DIVORCE Wife of Packing House Manager Also Wants Court to Allow Her $20 a Week, Mrs. Amelia Spiegel of 4723 Alaska avenue filed suit in the Circuit Court Tuesday against Solomon Spiegel, manager for Morris & Co., packers, 339 She asks $20 a week in the future and $69 for the period between Jan. 238, when they separated. The couple were married July 23, 1891, at Trinidad, Colo. Mrs. Spiegel sft.ys in her petition that her husband has been in the habit of absenting himself for two weeks at a time, re- turning home in an intoxicated con- dition.

IGOE AT DINNER SAYS KEEP HOUSE DELEGATES Congressman-Elect Declares Districts Should Be Repre- sented by Their Own Men. Congressman-elect William L Igoe, at a dinner given in his honor at the Jefferson Hotel Tuesday night by the thembers of the House of Delegates, declared that in the preparation of a new charter for St. Louis the Board of Freeholders should avoid abolishing the House of Delegates. “My observation,” Igoe said, “is that the House of Delegates should be retained. I do. not necessarily mean that there should be two houses in the Municipal Assembly, but if there is only one the members should be selected from districts and not from the city at large. I believe that the man elected from a district is more competent to represent the will of the people than is a man chosen at large who attempts to know the will of the entire city.” The occasiOn for the dinner was the retirement of Igoe from the House of Delegates. He will take his posi- tion as member of Congress from the Eleventh District March 4.

What Are Query: ere |Are the Claims of Sanatogen Exaggerated? Calories? , have heard it said that the composition of Sanategen is kept secret, that a dollar’s worth of wheat flour hax many times more calories than a dollar's worth of Sanatogen, and that your claims generally are exaggerated. I have been taking Sanatogen and it has helped me, but such criticiem puzsies me. Answer: We have received several letters similar to thia. Probably others have heard similar criticiama. is for their benefit as well as for the information and enlightenment of the general reader that we present the following facta, ao that “he who runs may read.’’ Japa the date of its origin ir Ger- many, fifteen years ago, the ex- act composition of Sanatogen has been published im. booklets, adver- tisements, in letters, and in fact, whenever and wherever occasion of- fered. Moreover, this composition is stated plainly on a leaflet that is wrapped around every packet of San- atogen sold to the public. So you see the assertion that we are hiding the composition of Sanatogen is plainly untrue. While it is correct to say that a dollar’s worth of flour bas many times more calories than a dollar's worth of Sanatogen,/it is iikewise true that a dollar’s worth of oleomar- gerine has many times more calories than a dollar’s worth of finest steak, and a pound of laundry soap or lard has just as many calories as fifty eggs. Calorie Value versus Food Value Calorie value is not food value. It simply expresses the heat or energy producing value of a given substance. It is neither scientific nor correct to attempt to express food value sim- ply in terms of calories. A calorie is only a measure of heat, representing the amount of heat that a food can produce in the body or outside the body, provided it can be digested. A food substance can be high in calorte value, yet on account of the difft- in nutrient value. The most valuable and vitally necessary portion of the food in health or in disease is that which repairs tissue waste or builds new tissue. Without it the body dies. Such portion of the food is called protein, taken from a Greek word meaning flesh. Sugar, starch and fat do not build tissue or repair it. They do furnish fuel to produce energy. Hence protein has true nutrient value, but the other kinds of foods only energy value. To assert that the calorie or energy value of a food means the same thing as its nutrient value is deceptive, conveys a ‘totally false idea, and is contrary to fact. Reinforces Daily Diet Sanatogen is a scientific. food for those who are run down or nervous. It is not intended to replace daily food, but to be given with it. Sana- togen is a scientific compound de- signed to act as a help to nutrition, | endowed for that purpose with spe cial nutritive and tonic properties’ not found in everyday foods. In noint of easy and perfect digestion Sanatogen is not approached by even the most easily digested ordinary food. As a reconstructor of nervous energy Sanatogen stands in a class by itself. Are our claims of Sanatogen exag- rerated? Any claims made for a substance intended to promote health must be capable of proof in two ways They must first of all be in harmony with known scientific facts, that Is to say, they must be theoretically cor- rect. Second, they must have been verified by actual experience; that is to .say, competent observers must have seen actual evidence of the re- sults claimed for such substance How does Sanatogen stand in this respect? Sanatogen's Chemical Elements As vou know, Sanatogen is an orig- ina] chemical compound of about 95% purest albumen of milk (protein) and 5% glycerophosphate of sodium. The two substances form a chemical union so original and useful in its design that it has been granted Letters Pat- ent in nearly every civilized country. We claim that this compound is able to produce superior results upon di- gestion and assimilation, upon nu- trition, and that, above all, it is cap- able of acting as a tonic upon the nervous system. Can this claim | bear theoretical investigation? How does Sanatogen actually behave in the human system? Has this ques- tion ever been pangs nye investi- gated? Has it ever béen shown that the human organism takes up the phosphorus of Sanatogen better than it would take up the inorganic kinds of phosphorus? Yes, most emphatically, such in- vestigations have been made by phy- sicians of high reputation. One of these, by Professor Tunnicliffe of King’s College, London, was read be- fore the International Congress of Medicine in 1906. This authority found that the taking of Sanatogen was followed by most remarkable increase of phosphorus and of albu- men in the system. Not only was this increase due to the constituents of Sanatogen themselves, but it was clearly shown that Sanatogen s0 acted on the other foods taken with it that the system appropriated from them much more albumen and phos- phorus than it did under a diet with. out Sanatogen. Now this proves very definitely that Sanatogen acts first of all as a cell food, and second as a pur- veyor of phosphorus to the nervous system. Similar investigations were made by several other scientists and with equally definite results. Scientific Bastia for Our Claima So here we have a scientific basis Sanatogen does invigorate the ner- vous system, since debility ef the nervous system, is very often, if not always dependent upon a loss or de- ficiency of phosphorus, and if the system can be brought to absorb with the aid of Sanatogen more organic phosphorus than it is able, unaided, to extract from the ordinary food, a strengthening and invigorating of the whole nervous apparatus is nat- ural and logical result. If we can bring the body to absorb more al- bumen (protein) through the blood into the body cells, we inevitably increase the efficiency, endurance and resistive force of the organisms. Now as to the practical results. The final test of the efficiency of any preparation lies in the crucible of experience. Sometimes a product is right in theory, but fails lamentably in practice. Sanatogen's Achievementa’ What is Sana ‘s record of achievement if actual practice? The medical profession of five continents have tried it, are using it, and surely their experience, their opinion, should count. We have received by aetual count over 16,000 original letters from physicians who have themselves watched the effect of Sanatogen u those for whom they have: prescrib it. There have appeared in the lead- ing medical journals of the world over 120 original contributions by members of the medical profession, Including authorities of world-wide renown, which contributions detail results produced by Sanatogen in a variety of conditions. Medical Opinions From this authoritative material we have drawn the claims we make on behalf of Sanatogen. When we say that Sanatogen will invigorate and vitalize the nervous system we do not say it simply because we think it will, because we personally believe it will, but because from the authori- tative reports which we have received there can be no doubt that it will do these things. When we say that Sanatogen will enrich the blood, that it will be of remarkable benefit to frail and anemic people, we say this because we have back of us the in- controvertible evidence of scientific authorities. When we say that San- atogen will give you better health. better strength, that it will reju- venate and endow you with added power to endure and to resist, we do not use these terms because they sound well, but we merely reiterate what thousands of doctors have vir- tually said, either in their letters to us or in original articles which have since become a definite part of medi- cal literature, Only to {fllustrate: A New York physician, head of a clinic, writes, after detailing his ex- perience, that he considers Sanatogen almost as a specie in anemia, that is to say, he considers Sanatogen al- most unfailing in anemia. When a physician of standing makes such an utterance, based upon actual] r: vation, and when his utteran is corroborated by hundreds of -other physicians, are we not justified in saying that Sanatogen will help anemic people? Prof. yon Noorden. head of the most famous medical clinic in the world, the first medical clinic of the University of Vienna. writes that he considers Sanatogen an excellent albuminous preparation. and that he finds it especially valua- ble in anemic conditions. Is such an. utterance from one of the greatest living authorities to be {gnored? Prof. C. A. Ewald of Berti acknowledged authority. states eee ae he has watched th ge iar observed excellent r neurast claim, our statements Bf pn oat ‘ . co = tive, as indeed they should be, - far tn recommending a preparation, however goat it may be, to overstep the border line o° probability is wrong. In that it raises false hopes in people for whom such preparsa- tion was never intended. Sanatogen Not a “Cure All” We do not claim Sanatogen to be « eu for consumption, Brights Siseaes. etc, We claim it to be ply and truly a tural, healthful food-tonic, designed to the efficiency of the human system, to aid digestion and aesimilation, to ect as tonic upon the nervous system: tn ort, ta strengthen the fundamental sources which. make for health and strength and long 4.

To Have Health, Bowel Regularity Is Necessity — How Best to Obtain it. If woman’s beauty depended upon cosmetics every woman would be a picture of loveliness. But beauty lies deeper than that. It lies in health. In the majority of cases the basis of health, and the cause of sickness, can be'traced to the action of the bowels. | The headaches, the lassituge, the sallow skin and the lusterless eyes are usually due to constipation. So many things that women do habit- gaily conduce to this trouble. They Jo not eat carefully, they eat indi- gestible foods vecause the foods are served daintily and they do not ex- ercise enough. But whatever the particular cause may be it is im- portant that the condition should be corrected. An ideal remedy for women, and one especially suited to their deli- cate requirements, is Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin, which thousands of women endorse highly. Mrs. Jennie Snedeker, 1041 West Monroe St., Chicago, testifies that she is “cured of grave stomach and bowel troubles by using Syrup Pepsin and without the aid of a dnctor or any other medicine.” All the family can use for thousands of mothers give it to babies and chil- dren. It is also admirably suited to the réquirements of elderly people, in fact to all who by reason of age or infirmity cannot stand harsh salts, cathartics, pills or purgatives. These should always be avoided for at best their effect is MRS, JENNIE SNEDEKER only for that day, while a genuine remedy like Syrup Pepsin acts mildly but permanently. It can be conveniently obtained at any drug store at fifty cents or one dollar a bottle. Results are always guaranteed or money will be re- funded. You will find: it gentle in action, pleasant in taste, and free from griping, and its tonic proper- ties have a distinct value to women. It is the most widely used laxative- tonic in America today and thou- sands of families are now never without it. If no member of your family has ever used Syrup Pepsin and you would like to make a personal trial of it before buying it in the regular way of a druggist, send your ad- dress—a postal will do—to Dr. W. B. Caldwell, 417 Washington St., Monticello, Ill., and a free sample

She declared in her peti- tion she was married to Morris 2) years ago, and is the mother of his 10 chil- dren. Mrs. Nellie Morris, who testified Mor- ris had lived as her husband for 11 years, the last few at Wentzville, was denied a right to the property by the jury. The case was heard on the petitions filed by the women and the arguments of their attorneys. No evidence was heard, and neither of the claimants were in court. Judge Moehlenkamp in- structed the jury that they could estab- lish the relationship by the allega- tions in the petitions, The property left by Morris amounts to about $500. Morris died Jan. 1, 1913, at Wentzvilie. He was living at that time with Mrs. Nellie Morris. When her attorney went to the Pro- bate Court Tuesday to file her claim to the estate he met the attorney for Mrs. Eliza Morris, who was there for the same purpose. HOUSE FAILS TO PASS ALIENS BILL OVER VETO Lacks Five Votes of Following Example of Senate on Immi- gration Measure. By Associated Press. WASHINGTON, Feb. 19.—The House today refused by a vote of 213 to 114 to pass. the Dillingham-Burnett immigra- tion bill over the President’s veto. Five votes changed from the negative to the affirmative would have given the two- thirds necessary to override the veto. Opposition to the measure was re- newed as soon as Representative Bar- nett of Alabama, chairman of the Im- migration Committee, moved that the till be reconsidered and passed over the President’s veto. Representatives Gold- fogle of New York and Curley of Massa- chusetts delayed action for two hours by demanding the reading of the bill, covering 26 printed pages, the Presi- dent's message and the message from the Senate. Representative Burnett, appealing to the House to override the veto, declared that Secretary of Commerce and Labor Nagel’s report, upon which the Presi- dent based his action, was “bristling with misinformation and misstatements.” . The bill, vetoed by President Taft be- cause it imposed a literacy test upon immigrants, was passed over the Presi- dent's veto in the Senate by a vote of 72 to 18. Support of the President’s position was voiced by only a few Senators. Sena- tors Lodge and Dillingham leading the fight to override the President, declaring the measure contained so many import- ant provisions for the exclusion of crim- | inal, diseased and insane aliens that great harm would result to the United States if it did not become law.

On the assertion of residents of the vicinity that two violent explosions pre- ceded the fire, Lograsso was arrested. He was released, however, when Capt.

The family was at. the home of Lograsso’s Rosie Parie, 1422 North Sev- enth street, when the fire started.

COLON, Panama, Feb. 19.~—The United States of Colombia is to sue the United, States of America for $20,000,900 for damages incurred through the loss of the Panama Ratlroad. The Colombian Congress has _ fust passed the bill authorizing the suit. It is to be begun in some American court. The Colombian claim is founded upon the fact that the Panama Railroad Co,, under its concession, paid a yearly tax to the Colombian Government of $280,- 000 gold. The contract was executed in the year 1867, and the Colombians figure that but for the untimely independence of Panama, their Government would bave received this tax of $14,500,000. In- cluding the interest upon deferred pay- ments, the claim would run up to slight- ly more than $20,000,000. The Colombian Congress has been pro- rogued for a month. It met in special

It does not prove that the Diaz-Huerta dictatorship is strong enough to es- tablish order and construct an efficient and sat- isfactory governmental organization. It leaves Mexico worse off because a military dictatorship has been substituted for a legal government. Mili- tary despotism can maintain order only by force, and exists only so long as it has the strongest battalions on its side against all those who have ambitions to wield dictatorial power. Nothing {could be worse than a military dictatorship, sup- ported by muskets or a succession of military dictators. Mexico’s problem will not be solved until a constitutional government, supported by a loyal majority of the people, devoted to order, law and the public interest against all other interests is established. Until the army is merely an efficient instrument of a superior civil authority, Mexico will be torn by revolutionary conflict. , Whether or not this will be done, depends upon the patriotism of the men in control, and the ac- tive patriotism of a majority of the Mexican peo- ple. But until the people themselves, under the leadership of patriotic representatives demand ef- ficient constitutional government the calamity of American intervention threatens both coun- tries.

The sections of the Cooper act which authorize cities to create public utility commissions and which empower the local commission to obtain information from public utility corporations should not be repealed. Missouri needs a law of this kind. The value of the law will be measured by the character and ability of the men appointed on the commission.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE How About Night Phone Rates? To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch.

Why were the half rates for night toll tele- }. phone service withdrawn in Missouri, while still remaining in effect in the adjoining State of Ar- kansas? Are the Missour! lawmakers “asleep on the job” in this matter, or are the Arkansas solons better “getters” for the people? Telegraph companies have always given a re- duced rate on night business. They now trans- mit a 60-word message at night for the same rate as charged for a day message of only 10 words, and if the telegraph companies can af- ford to make the reduced night rate, then the telephone company could profitably do likewise. There being more large cities @nd a denser population in Missour!, one would naturally sup- pose that telephone service would cost the com- pany no more, if as much, per capita served, as in more sparsely settled Arkansas. We Mis- sourians are “easy marks” or we would never have tolerated this discrimination, and‘ every phone user in the State should at once file his protest with our lawmakers. MILITANT.

In an Oklahoma court proceeding in which the Government seeks to have a land sale nullified, it appears that Tom Hickory, an aged Indian, had agreed to sell the land to a friend for $8000. The Government Indian Agent, who had ap- praised the land at $16,000, objected to the sale. The Indian protested to the Court, “I no want $16,000. I want $8000. Indian keep his word.” What percentage of white men would object to the Governmient’s relief from a like bad bar- gain just for the sake of keeping thefr word? What percentage of white men would not hold the Indian to his bad bargain if it were possible? White men thrive on each other’s bad bargains. The law of contracts is the most elaborate that we have.

The Sunday Post-Dispatch wanted to know who invented the new Hesitation Waltz. Prof. F. BE. Parke, one of the oldest dancing teachers in St. Louis, taught his pupils that step, and it {is just as Mr. Jacob Mahler said it is, new in name only. Prof. Mahler and Prof. Parke are both dyed-in-the-wool dancing instructors and what they don’t know about dancing is not worth knowing. As for the Hesitation Waltz, it cer- tainly was danced long before Miss Martin, Harry Trimp, Ann Drew, Clarence King or Herbert Cost ever thought of dancing. This {s from one who knows. G. L.

The ad is not dead with the day, it runs through a defined season and will be read by people who spend money. The newspaper ad may reach 100,000 people, many of whom are unable to buy; the Grand Opera program will reach at least 6000 people who are spenders. Strange, if the 6000 opera spenders are not among the many thousands who read the news- papers, that the Grand Opera managers should eagerly seek newspaper publicity. Perhaps here- after they will substitute articles in programs for articles in newspapers. It would save news- paper space. ‘Explanations that Congress does not wish to

THE UNDAUNTED EIGHT. Before joining the chorus: of anti-suffragette men who will feel a shameless gratification that only eight of the original band of marching suf- fragettes continue to put their best foot forward, at the rate of 15 miles per day, tor Washington, let us rather. consider the handicap under which ore-half of the band were compelled to fall out of the ranks, leaving an undaunted eight to reach the goal, if even that number may be able to do so, It is usually charged that suffragettes don’t pat- ronize the corset counter, but the charge has nev- er been proved. The 50 or more male newspaper corresPondents who have accompanied the suffra- ‘brass brick to another white man. ecnsiderable transactions of white men are re- duced to writing in contract form. The Ccele- bfated statute of frauds requires that most con- tracts shall be evidenced by a writing. Little is left to a man’s word, in business. Under the white man’s law the seller has al- ways been presumed to be able to look after his own interests. As for the buyer, the law’s maxim, caveat emptor, let the buyer beware, warns him to guard against fraud. We do not mean to im- ply that the white man is not honest. He is hon- est in his own highly sophisticated way. In considering the contrast between the white man and the red man it is significant, and a tribute to the latter, that the white man always capitalizes the red man’s honesty and disguises himself as an Indian when hé sells a gold-plated When we re- flect on the red man’s simple honesty and the white man’s sophisticated honesty, it is easy to understand why the white man now has virtually everything that the red man used to have. = = — Se

Dry legislation seems to have a multiplicity of wet nurses at JeaTerson City. | a. — a A STRONG UTILITY MEASURE. As amended and adopted by the Democratic caucus, the Public Utility Commission bill fs : strong, comprehensive measure, giving the com- mission to be created under it ample powers tc regulate public service corporations. But in one respect it might be improved. We do not indorse Senator Reed's objection to the Public Utility Commission bill on the ground that the Governor should not be entrusted with the power to appoint the commissioners, but his suggestion that the large cities might suffer on account of the great task of regulating all utilities in the State which is imposed on one commission, is worth considering. While it may be wise to concentrate all the power of régulation in the State commission, the interests of cities would be better safeguarded if

Southsast Missouri. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I have seen articles in your paper a number of times referring to the Ozark country as a farm- ing and land investment opportunity. I do not wish to reflect in the least upon that section, as it has many things to recommend it and make it attractive to many who might want to locate upon a farm. But, what seems strange to me, having seen this section alluded to so many times as a farm- ing’ country, that people, especially St. Louisans and Missourians, constantly point to that section, apparently to the exclusion of another section of your State, a section comprising perhaps 6000 square miles of as good farming land, as good soil as can be found in all the Mississipp! Valley. I refer to Southeast Missouri. The great drain- age canals or ditches have opened up for fanming purposes thousands of acres of land that is as rich as the Valley of the Nile. The rich drained lands of the southeast part of your State have been ignored. They have never been boomed or advertised. I firmly belleve thousands of settlers are now in Texas and Okla- homa, that would today be living in Southeast Missouri! had they but known of that section and its wonderful soil. | AN OLD ILLINOIS SUBSCRIBER. Coffeen, _ Tl. Actual News From Mexico. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Once more I have to congratulate the Post- Dispatch for its enterprise. In reading the paper this afternoon I was able to find out from a trustworthy source what is actually taking place in Mexico. Your action in sending a staff re- porter to Mexico City assures your readers daily information on a situation that seems to have been obscured rather than made clear. While other papers today were telling of “the palace being riddled with bullets” the Post-Dispatch was describing the desultory shooting in the streets, shooting that did little damage to proper- ty and was more picturesque than fatal in its consequences. 5S.

From the Toronto Mail and Empire. The Railway Commission has issued a circular to motive power foremen on the Canadian railways urging the impor- tance of a renewal of locomotive wheels before the flanges are badly worn. In- spectors in the service of the commis- son report that many locomotives on passenger trains have sharp flanges, in some cases the flanges being worn down below the master car bullders’ standard allowance gauge. Some of these locomotives are running on fast passenger trains, thus inviting much unnecessary rigk to the safety of hun- dreds of passengers. As a rule, when a locomotive jumps the track, the accident ts ascribed to some peculiar defect in the track, rather than to insufficient flanging on the loco- motive. It is undeniable that many sup- posed raf] defects are in reality the out- come of defective driving wheel tires. The Railway Age Gazette tells of 100 rails on an Ilinois railroad being bro- ken on one trip by a flattened driving wheel.

JUNGLE TALES FOR CHILDREN Written for the Post-Dispatch By Farmer Smith. R. ELEPHANT was dancing around first on one foot and then on the other singing soft- ly to himself: “Sun comes up in the morning, And rides around all day; Moon comes up in the evening, And hasn't long to stay.’’ Mr. Elephant stopped suddenly and looked around. A tiny little voice was calling him: “Pjease, Mr. Elephant, do be careful not te step on me.” Looking down the huge fellow saw a little violet smiling up at him out of a bed of moss. “What is that?” asked Mr. Elephant. You almost stepped on me,” replied the Little Violet. “Why, the ideal’ exclaimed Mr. Ele- phant. “Of course I would not step on you. Are those tears in your eyes dew drops or what?” “No, Mr. Elephant, I’ve been crying.” ‘What have you been crying about?’ asked the Big Fellow. “yr cannot understand why the sun does not shine on me as it does on the daisy,” said the Little Violet. “tia! ha! ha!” laughed Mr. Elephant. ‘Why, my dear Little Violet, don’t you know that if the sun shone on you it would burn you all up? That is why the violets always grow in the shade. Daisies are not beautiful like you.” “Oh, thank you very much, Mr. Ele- phant,” gaid the Little Violet, nestling down in the moss, “I shall never be dis- contented again.” The Name of It.

A @ poor trader in Frankfort- on-the-Main. His ambition was to be rich. He and his wife wanted their five boys to succeed, and Frau Gudula lived to see her sons rise to be among the wealthiest men in the world. Before the sons of this trader died they controlled the financial destinies of the world. There were ‘no numbers on the houses in Jew street, so Maier Amschel put a red shield over his door to distinguish it from the doors of his neighbors. They called it the house of ROTHES SCHILD, and the sons took the name of Rothschild. Now the house of Rothschild possesses a fortune of billions of dollars. Morgan and Rockefeller combined probably are not as rich as the Rothschilds. It has been estimated that the banking house founded by Maier Amschel. owns more than 400,000,000 pounds sterling. Invested at 4 per cent that fortune would bring more than a million dollars’ interest every five days. All of Maier Amshel’s sons became bankers; Anselm, the eldest, in Frankfort; Solomon in _ Vienna, Nathan in London, Karl in Naples, and James in Paris. Of the banks that they opened, three remain— those in London, Paris and Vienna— still in the hands of descendants of the men who founded them. Maier Amshel’s wish was that his descendants inter-marry, and this custom has been followed almost without exception. Whenever pos- sible, cousins have wed each Other. Ignatius Balla has written “The Romance of the Rothschilds,” and it has just been published in London. In this book he tells interesting anecdotes of Maier Arschel, Frau Gudula and their five sons. The Landgrave Made the Move and Won. wat AMSCHEL as a boy was in- terested in old coins, and it was this interest that took him to work in a banking office, where he began to

Amschel ‘found the Landgrave deep in a game of chess and he stood behind him, watching the game. “Do you play chess?’ the Landgrave asked him. “Yes; and if Your Highness will kind- ly make this move, the game will. be decided in your favor in three moves.” The Landgrave made the move and won. He became interested in Amschel end helped him to his banking success. He Had a Carrier Pigeon News Service. } HE aged mother, who saw the in- fluence of her sons increasing daily, rejoiced to see the power to which she had given birth. Once a Frankfort woman came to her to complain, “War is breaking out,” she moaned, “and they will take my only son, as I cannot pay the money to release him from military service.’’ The aged Gudula smilingly consoled the distressed mother with the words: “Do not be afraid; there will be no war. My sons will not provide the money for it.”’ Nathan, the founder of the English house, was the most gifted intellectually and he was the chief worker in building up the house of Rothschild. He used many methods to get information upon which he bought and sold. He had a carrier pigeon service from Paris and from Frankfort and he paid well for in- formation. When captains of vessels arrived in port they always hurried to him to sell the news of the lands from which they had come. | | 4 “It Was the Happiest Moment of My Life.” | MAN who cut James Rothschild’s operation: ‘‘As I cut them I reflected ir. my mind: Thou now hast in thy hands the foot of the man who holds the whole world in his hands; art now a man of consequence.

He never went to bed without putting a loaded pistol under his pillow. He saw a would-be assassin in stranger. Two men came to visit him once. The visitors bowed silently and felt nervously in their pockets. Rothschild thought his visitors were assassins. His face was tense and he swiftly seized a large book and flung it at the men. With desperate energy he laid hold of everything within reach and threw it at them, shouting for help at the top of his voice. His servants rushed in and found

BANKING HOUSE 10 BE BEST IN WORLD Elegant Marble Structure to Be _ Erected at Wall and Broad Streets, New York. WILL COST $1,500,000 Plot Worth $4,000,000, Making Property Most Valuable Ever Occupied by One Concern. NEW YORK, Feb. 19.—J. P. Morgan & Co. will have the finest private bank- ing house in the world when the de- signs are executed for the new build- ing which will replace the present structure at the southeast corner of Wall and Broad streets. Not only will the new building be a magnificent bank- ing house, but it will as well pe a most complete office building for the firm's exclusive use. Besides all of the best features of the modern office structures, this will have private sleeping rooms and bachs for use of the members of the firm on oc- casion, and a terrace on a level witn the top floor, where, on pleasant days, meals may be served in the open, or where the firm members may take a little recreation away from busy walks. Upper Floors Suspended. In construction the building will be one of the wonders of the city. I+ will be but four stories high and the three upper floors will be hung from great trusses just below the roof, instead of resting on steel girders, as in the or- dinary building. Many of the features of the etructure can be described only by the use of su- perlatives. In the first place fit will cost $1,500,000 and maybe $2,000,000. The bank- ing floor will be the largest in any pri- vate banking house in the world, cover- ing an area of 15,000 square feet. In this great area there will not be a pillar

wor a post, these being unnecessary by reason of the floors above being sus- pended. The exterior of the structure anid much of the interior will be of Tennes- see marble and some of the blocks to be used will be the largest ever em- ployed in building construction in this city. Largest Private Vault. The foundations will be seven feet thick, while the vault will be the !argest in any private banking house, equaling ix size those in the Bankers’ Brust and the Guarantee Trust buildings. It is said that the plot on which the structurs will be erected is worth in the neigh- borhood of $4,000,000. This added to the cost of the building makes the banking Louse the most valuable property in ‘the world occupied by a mangle di isiness concern.

JJANNUS CRITICALLY ILL FOLLOWING OPERATION Aviator Had Appendicitis Attack and Was Removed to St. John’s Hospital. Antony Jannus, a Benoist aviator and holder of several world’s records for hydroaeroplane flights, is critically ill at St. John’s Hospital, following an opera- tion for appendicitis performed Tuesday. He became ill Saturday at the De Luxe Hotel, University City, where he lives. His condition became so serious Tues- day morning that he was removed to the hospital for an operation. He first was attacked with the ail- ment at Fairview, La., when he was making a flight from St. Louis to New Orleans. He flew 65 miles in his hydro- aeroplane to reach a doctor, and col- lapsed near a river landing. He was at- tended by a doctor in a houseboat and recovered after an illness of three days.

St. Louis Athletic Club’s Main Event Fails to Please, but Peppers-Dalwitz Go Develops Plenty of Action— Schieberl a Disappointment.

By Harry S. Sharpe. Referee for the St. Louis A. C. and the Post-Dispatch’s Boxing Authority. a IGHT rounds was not enough to settle the question of supremacy between Oliver Kirk and Joe Genail, last night at the St. Louis Athletic Club, and at the end of the mill there was little to choose between them. It may be that Genail had a little more force behind his blows, but Kirk evened this b having a bit more speed and snap to his. It was not the clever, scientific box- ing bout many admirers of both men thought it would be and was marred by more clinching and holding than seemed necessary. It was seldom that the box- ers exchanged blows that they did not finish the passage at arms by clinch- ing, though they observed the rule fair- ly well against hitting while holding. They were both a little slow about breaking from the clinches and each blamed the other for not doing so quick- ly. Kirk and Genail are graduates of the amateur ranks in this city and began their professional careers about the same time and are equally conversant with the rules, clean-break and all. It is probable that each has a wholesome respect for the ability of the other and neither cared to take chances in standing off and boxing it out. Genail has a wicked punch that is apt to score a knock-out any time, while Kirk has a fast left jab that works with punish- ing effect when his opponent will stand away and refrain from clinching. Both Men Are Careful. In the first round both men were cau- tious, though they swung some hard blows that missed their mark. The sec- ond round was almost a repetition of the first. but in the three succeeding rounds some good boxing was done, barring the frequent clinches. Probably the hard- est hitting of the bout was done in the fourth round, when Genail landed some hard swings to the head and body, while Kirk cut loose some stinging up- percuts. The last three rounds were, in my opinion, very even, with first one having a slight advantage and then the other, but neither was at any time in seri- ous danger of being knocked out. Genail and Kirk weighed in at 12 pounds at 3 o’clock, and this weight ap- peared to suit both. Schieberl Again Disappoints. The semi-windup between Clifford “Peanuts” Schieberl and Tom McAn- drews, eight rounds at 118 pounds, was somewhat of a disappointment, but it was mostly due to the awkwardness of McAndrews in his style of covering and persistent holding. In a majority of the rounds Schieberl was the aggressor, but McAndrews covered with his hands and arms, presenting only the back of his neck and head to hit at, and Schie- berl slapped away at this, but without much result. At times McAndrews stood up and boxed in fairly clever fashion, but he did little of this. McAndrews started off by doing much hitting when holding and when T stopped the bout for an instant in the second round to explain to McAndrews that this was a viola- tion of the rules there was much hissing by the spectators, who seemed to think he was being placed at a disadvantage. His offense consisted of wrapping one hand about the head or neck of Schieber! and then continuing to hit with the other. Under the rules, when a boxer holds with one or both hands he is prohibited from hitting again until after the breakaway. It is a penalty he brings on himself and is intended to discourage unnecessary clinching and degenerating the bout into a standing rough-and-tumbie fight. Schieber! demonstrated in his bout here with Jerry Dalton of Indianapolis that he is quite a clever boxer, but against his op- ponent’s style last night he was hardly able to show much, though he succeeded in out- pointing him and is entitled to the decision. Peppers Shows Imprevement. The real surprise of the night was fur- nished by Nick “‘Kid’’ Peppers, who held ‘clever Charlie Dalwits to a draw after eight

witz’s clever left hand jab was not so much in evidence as it has been in previous bouts and he did not seem so fast as usual. It was noticeable, too, that he did more clinch- ing than is his habit. This bout was almost as good as the main event, though it did not create quite so much excitement among the Spectators. Geiger Beats Klein. Joe Geiger of St. Louis outboxed ‘‘Young’’ Klein of Memphis, Tenn., six rounds at 150 pounds. As on a previous occasion when these two met, the bout was something of a burlesque, the comedy being furnished by the grotesque poses of Klein. A disagreeable feature of the entertainment was the unrestrained coaching of some of the seconds, who used a torrent of abusive and foul language to the evident disgust of many of the spectators who were unfortunate enough to be within hearing. |

| Hub Fans Think Stallings May | Prove Another George Stovall

AN George Stallings, the firey commander of the Braves, do for Boston what George Stovall did for St. Louis? Stovall startled the uni- verse last year by blasting the Browns out of last place—a notable achievement. Stallings is much the same type of lead- er as Stovall, but can he steer those hopeless tail-enders of the Hub out of the cellar? Should he succeed it’s hard to forecast now what team will be the new occu- pant of the National League dug-out. Stallings has some fair performers. In lerdue, Hess, Tyler, Brown, not to mention his recruits, he has very su- perior flingers. Bill Sweeney is a big league second sacker, while Bill Mc- Kechnie, formerly of the Pirates, should win out at ether short or first base. Jackson is a good outfielder while in Gonzales, the Cuban, Stallings is said to have the makings of a great catcher. Rut there’s still a hole at third and an- other in center, since Vin Campbell has decided to quit. Speaking of Campbell, it is well to spike all rumors of the St. Louis boy ever returning to the national game. Even a lucrative berth in New York wouldn't interest the speed boy. He has quit baseball for keeps and now is engrossed in the automobile ac- cessories business in Pittsburg. Clark Griffith is a world ,»eater for sav- ing St. Louis cast-offs from going to the minors. He rescued Frank Laporte and Barney Pelty and now tries to keep Joe Lake in the big League. While in New York Griff engineered a few trades that weak- ened the Yanks and strengthened the Browns. And them we all remember that he fired Huggins, Oakes and Mowrey to get such gecond raters as Beebe, Stark and Fromme. The Olé Renyerd is a wonder!

NOLAN'S TACTICS ENABLED NELSO 10 DEFEAT TERRY Ritchie’s Manager Tells of Stuff He Pulled as Front Man for Durable Dane. By Robert Edgren. A Special Correspondent of the Post- Dispatch. NEW YORK, Feb. 19.—Billy now here as manager of Champion Wil- lie Ritchie, has had some experience in handling fighters and promoting cham- pionship encounters. He has been in the game a long while and ought to know what he is speaking about when he discusses affairs of the ring. His recollections are interesting. Says Billy: “The Nelson-McGovern fight over in Philadelphia in 1908 was the biggest fight ever held in this.country before or since. By that I mean-it drew more money than any fight ever held here or in any part of the country. The gate re- Nolan, ceipts figured something like $26,000. but that doesn’t begin to tell the story. The house was sold four or five times over that at least. The $26,000 was the total of the face value of the tickets counted, but comparatively few got seats for that fight at the box office rates. Why the late John W. Gates paid $1000 for seats, and I know another fellow who bought 1000 $ tickets and sold them for at least $15 apiece. Police Needed to Check Crowd. “The doors of the club were closed at 8 o’clock, and hundreds who came over on special trains from New York, after that, were barred. There were 50 mounted police outside the doors from 5 o’clock on, and 100 were on foot. They had the time of their lives keeping ‘he crowds in check. I remember it took me an hour to get from the Bingham House to the club with Nelson that night. “Yes,” went on Nolan, reflectively, “that was the biggest and best adver- tised fight in this vountry, and it was only six rounds. Why, the New York papers issued extras on it, just like they did in the Spanish-American war times. “I'll never forget that argument Joe Humphries and I had the day of the fight. When we went into executive session to have an understanding of the rules, what constituted a knockdown and what Terry should be told to do in case he put Nelson right down off the reel. You know Terry was slip- posed to be a bit off in the top flat at that time and Humphries was his manager. ‘‘He argued all of two hours on the ques- tion of whether Terry should step back to the ropes after dropping Bat or should stand right over him waiting for Nelson to get up. Real Secong Story Tactics. ‘‘Humphries would jump at me with hot words and I’d bound right back at him. Looked like we were going to mix it up right there ourselves. I tell you Humphries was a great fellow to work with. ‘‘We were in Harry Edwards’ parior over his saloon in North Juniper street, in Phila- delphia having this war of words. The saloon downstairs was jammed to suffocation and outside another crowd awaited the news of the conference. It had been rumored that the fight was off because I wouldn't stand for the rules or the demands of Hum- phries, but there never was a chance of calling that fight off at any time. No, sir-ee. “Only two newspaper men were admitted to the conference and this was agreed to only after a prolonged wrangie. I wanted to bar them all. A Philadelphia scribe and a New Yorker finally got in. They were to report to the other newspaper men after- ward. ‘It seems now as if Humphries and I ar- gued for hours there, every once in a while heavy knocks on the door indicated the im- patience of the crowd below and the frozen- out newspaper men, while the two writers inside scribbled pads of news. “Oh, it was hot stuff for them, and it was good press work for the fighting Hum- phries, and I finally and naturally agreed rules, when we came out of the room, per- the news that the fight was on I have all the More of That Goldfield Stuff. “The stuff we pulled in the ring that night is tty well known.

Only Sythe .comparat ve failure of the crop last year prevented an ear- , redtiction, Kinsella said. Last Au- the Brazilian coffee plantations promise of a yield of 14,000,000 bags. | a few Weeks, however, cold rains and winds came from the south and last- ¢4 for days.

Gradual- ‘Phe “valorization deal’’ was explained by Kinsella as follows: Bight years ago the Government of ‘the Brazilian State of San Paulo, where = most ef the coffee is raised, bought up $000,000 bags of coffee, meeting the ex- : pense by issuing bonds which were}, ' bought up by North American capital- ‘§sts. In order to further increase its ; revenue and raise the price of coffee by keeping the supply down, the Govern- eet also put a virtually prohibitive on the planting of young coffee .and imposed an export duty of : bag on coffee. on Planting Nallified. tax on planting has been a dead letter for the last two rs. The ex- duty still remains, but there are that it soon will be removed, ahd the agitation against trusts in the a United States is one of the factors 3 1 eking to that end, Kinsella believes. ‘The objects of the valorization deal how have been attained, Kinsella says, a and there is no further need of it. The 3 _ bonds have been met and the Govern- | ment of San Paulo has gained an im- mse profit. Many coffee roasters in United States, however, have been 9 of business by the high prices n coffee, he saye. increases brought about by the involved principally the lower of coffee, having little effect on | better qualities.

By ‘arene ne om the New York Burea e Post-Dtapatch. NEW YORK> Feb. 19.—T he Evening Post, in its copyrighted financial re- i view today, says: “All the principal markets more cheerful today, and prices at New York, London and Paris showed fractional gains. At, Berlin a late re- action offset for the most part the early advance, but the tone every- re appeared firmer than yester- penin and ig a full point om the morning. United States Steel, Reading and Lehigh Valley were also exceptionally strong in the last hour. The market became quite active in the final trading, and many of the Standard shares were heavily dealt in. There was no special change in the character of the trading, how- aver, the market being largely pru- tion of f and with very little indicsa- onc of increased outside panpert. ‘The recovery appeared to be base! as much as anything on the feeling that the heavy selling of vesterdayv had been somewhat overdone, and that there was nothing in the situa- tion to justify extreme pessimism. “It was taken for granted also that the turn of affairs in Mexico was st least in the right erection. and that there was now a better chance for a gacetul settlement of all difficul- “This view was certainly influen- tial in promoting the recovery in for- eign markets. More Gold Exported. “Another gold engagement of $1,000,000 was made for South America, which brings the total withdrawals for that country up to $15,850,000 since Jan. 9 last. This is within $450,000 of the amount which Paris bankers predicted some time ago would be shipped to Buenvws Ayres from the United States. “To both France and South America we have lost $26,850,000 gold since th- ear opened, and it is clear thdt condi- ions are still favorable for the coa- tinuance of the movement to Argentina at least. “All the gold thus far taken for that markét has been for the account of for- eign banks, chiefly those at Paris and Berlin. . “Call money rates were again fairly easy, owing in part to the dullness of the stock market, and in part to the desire of banks, both.here and out of town, to employ most of their money in demand loans rather than in loans running for fixed periods. “There was, if anything, a broader demand for time money, and it was evi- dent that various borrowers who a month ago were not taking time money at all, were asking now for consider- able surns for periods varying from 4 days to six months, “The banks here did not press any large sums for employment on time, but some Wall street institutions made advances for correspondents at out-of- town points. “There were also some importart transactions in mercantile paper, an from the character of the buying tt was evident that numerous banks of the West. which were large lenders on call in Wall street in the cloging weeks of 1912, were investing heavily in com- mercial paper, at virtually a 6 ‘per cent basis.’’ ee Qe NEW YORK BOND SALES. 3232833222223222 232 233 — Uta St bat at etre nt Pin ed bk oe 383888 ; Maryta 3 or ic « - Ry.

Broomhall’s official “The wheat market opened %d lower in sympathy with America yesterday, and more favorable reports from In- dia. Following the opening the mar- ket was very dull, but the deeline was checked by the fewer Manitoba offers and the strength in the more distant positions in Buenos Ayres. Expectations are for liberal worlds shipments this week and a good con- tribution from Argentine, ut these appear to have little effect on values. “Liverpool corn Opened unchanged and later declined %d on éasier American cables *and @ wsenerally quieter demand.
