Crow, attorney for the Government in the Terminal case, Was at his farm in Eureka, Mo., Mon- day, and did not see copies of the in- terlocutory decree and the opinions of Judges Hook and Sanborn. The substance cf these documents was repeated to him by a Post-Dispatch reporter. He said: “I think, of course, that ion. The interlocutory decree is not final, and the Government will be heard on the final decree. “We are going to keep on fighting, and if the final decree is not satis- factory, we will appeal again to the Supreme Court, Possibly some steps may be taken on the interlocutory decree.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., June 16.— Scientists in the Harvard Medical School are trying to read the brain of the late Dr. Maurice Howe Rich- ardson, ex-member of the faculty of that institution. The examinations are being conducted secretly in the neuropathological department and under the direction of Dr E E. Southard, Dr. Richardson was a firm believer that thoughts make definite lines in the brain, and the present examina- Judge! tion is being conducted in accordance Hook is right in his dissenting opin- ! with his wishes as expressed in his will. He believed that a person's thoughts were recorded and were at the time of thinking visible on the outer walls of the cerebrum. He held that if these lines were read and the seat of the thought located it would make it possible to correct defects 'in the brain by surgical operations. was accomplished by the American forces during the night with the loss of of six men killed and seven wounded. Reports of the engagement reaching here by wireless from the Island. of Jolo are but meager. All of the Ameri- cans killed were members of the BeV- | eral companies of scouts. In the first, advance upon the mountain last week the Moros were nearly dislodged from their positions. The number of dead among the Moros is not known. Last night’s battle .began just before dark. The fighting was fierce, the na- tives repeating their desperate sorties with bolos, but the American advance was so determined that the Moro's stole away, and left the mountain clear.. They are now at large, and will be pursued ceaselessly. Pershing Praisesx Troops. Brigadier-General John J. Pershing, commanding the Department in Min- danao, is leading the forces, and is en- thusiastic in his praise of the ‘conduct of his men, The killing of the six Americans today makes the death total 11 in routing the forces of the Sultan of Jolo. The first attack was on Thursday, when an American captain and three Philippine scouts perished. It is believed that the losses on the part of the enemy have been heavy. A second fight, tt has been learned, occurred Friday, and one man was killed. The attacks were a part of a plan, formed carefully a month ago, in the in- terest of permanent peace in the archi- peligo. In the north disarmament had been effected peaceably, and it had been hoped that through the good offices of the Sultan of Jolo, the savage Mo- hammedan tribes in the Jolo group and in Mindanao might likewise be induced rto give up their weapons.

Judge Sanborn wrote a brtef opinion upholding the interlocutory decree.

Mrs. Gerda Ruth, a widow, 2% years old, was Knocked down by a motor cycle ridden by John M. Jackson of 4148 Washington avenue at 8 o'clock Monday morning at Sixteenth and Lo- cust streets. Her skull was fractured, and she was taken to the city hospital, where her condition was critical. Mrs. Ruth resides at 4740 College av- enue, and is employed in the neck- wear factory of Ely & Walker, on Washington avenue. She was on her way to work when the accident oc- curred. Jackson, who is an underground foreman for the Union Electric Light and Power Co., accompanied Mrs. Ruth to the city hospital in the auto- mobile of a passerby, who offered his assistance when Mrs. Ruth was run dewn. Jackson surrendered himself to the police, and gave @ common law bond of $800, signed by Eliah C. Frese, be- fore Judge Miller of the Court of Crim- inal Correction to answer any charge that may be brought against him. Jackson told a Post-Dispatch repor- ter that he was riding his motor cycle to work, and as he came east on Lo- cust street Mrs. Ruth, who was walk- ing north on Sixteenth, stepped from the curbing to cross Locust street. . eeeen says that when he sounded his horn Mrs. Ruth became confused, first starting to step back on the pave- ment and later going ahead again, which brought her directly in front of the motor cycle. If she had stood still Jackson says, the accident would not have happened. EXPLOSION IN MULE’S KICK Four Men lrobably Will Die as Result of Mine Accident.

He declared that if that basis were extend- ed to the whole Burlington system, the value upon which rates were to be based would exceed by $115,000,000 the capitalization of the system.

S. Senate Investigators Prepare to Resume Hear- ing, With the Operators Giving Their Side ‘Reign of Terror.’ CHARGED AGREEMENT - IS NOT LIVED UP TO Renewal of Industrial War ‘Said to Be Based on Claim of Discrimination in Em- ploying of Miners and Beating of 4 Men. CHARLESTON, W. Va., June 16.— With industrial war again declared in West Virginia, the Senate Coal Strike Investigating Committee today confront- éd a situation critical and complicated. Word from the isolated sections of Paint Creek and Cabin Creek that the strike was again on, drifted into Charleston from a half dozen sources, and representatives of mine operators, miners and State officials sought in vain for word from the little camps along the creeks, The union attorneys appearing before the committee said that they were cer- tain the men had declined to go back to work today at meetings held yesterday, tut they were unable to make any esti- rate of the number of men who struck. There were comparatively few union inen in the field, they said, but they be- lieved both union and nonunion men decided to quit. for days the New River miners, num. bering 15,000, have threatened trouble, and it was feared the new outbreak on Paint and Cabin Creeks would precipi tate a struggle there. The miners meeting at Eskdale and Kayford, according to reports reaching Charleston, voted to renew the strike on the ground that the operators had net fived up to their agreement to take the strikers back to work without dis- criminating. This claim and the story that mine guards had “beaten up” four men on Cabin Creek on Saturday caused the decision. With feeling between miners and mine operators again keyed up to a high pitch, the Senate committee prepared to call upon the mine operators for their side of thie controversy. Ex-mine wuards, detectives and special agea‘s and miners and union operators threnged the lobby of the hotel, where the committee was in session, and crowded the room where the hearing was being held. Contradiction and explanation of the Stories told all last week by the men and wctcmen who lived through what former Gov. Glasscock called a “reign of terror’ in the strike district was tne program of the operators, and they had witnesses on hand. The commitiee urged that the number of witnesses be held down tc the lowest possible figure, but the attorneys for the operators in- sisted that their case called for a great mass of testimony. Only Senators Swanson, Martine and Kenvon were on hand to begi: the hearing, Senators 3o- rah and Shields having returned to Washington last week. Glances of bitter resentment and an occasional muttered word among she scores of men gathered about the coro- mittee hotel bore witness to the ill feeling tha: still prevails here. The story of Lee Calvin, ex-mine guard, re- lating to ‘he shooting up of the strik- ers’ camp «tf Holly Grove, have crystal- lized much of the ill feeling, and even among the attorneys before the com- mittee an cccasional glance of bitter- ness shows the undercurrent of resent- ment. . The presence in Charleston of Joan P. White, president of the United Mine Workers of America, resulted in several conferences among union officials. ife was in Charleston principally to make an appearance and give bail in the criminal cases brought against the mins officials in the Federal courts for a! leged conspiracy under the Sherman law. “SALVAR" CURES RHEUMATISM FREE BOOK.

BOY DIGGING CAVE KILLED WHEN ROOF COLLAPSES Henry Carden, 10 years old, was killed Sunday by the collapse of the réof of a cave which he and other boys had been digging in Bums’ Hol- low, west of St. Charles, Mo. Tons of earth fell upon him, His _ brother, Julius, who wae in the party of boys, escaped without injury. Julius and the otlers made frantic efforts to eave Henry, but so much earth was piled upen the boy that he was dead before the resenvers could get to him. Iienry Doeckhard, 13, was rendered unconscious when some of the earth struck him, but soon revived. The boys had dug some distance inte the side of the hill, and when the cave-in occurred Henry Carden, who was farthest from the opening, was the only one who could not es- cape. He started to run when the earth began to crumble, but was un- able to reach the open air. He lived with hfs mother, Mrs. Kate Carden, a widow, at Second and Franklin streets, St. Charles.

Judge Hook, in his dissenting opin- ion, held that every semblance of the bridge arbitrary between St. Louis and East St. Louis should be wiped out, and that the Circuit Judges should not stop merely with the lan- guage of the Supreme Court, but ehould go further and make the de- cree so specific that it would be im- possible for any misunderstanding to arise as to what the court meant when it. said the arbitrary should be abolished. Favors an Injunction. Judge Hook also declared that the in- terlocutory decree should contain an in- junction against the continuation wf the practice of charging an arbitrary. “I don’t think I am mistaken in say. ing that my brothers sustain the de- fendant in thelr contention,” said Judge Hook, referring to the right ot the railroads and the Terminal Associa- tion to charge an arbiirary. “Their view is not fully expressed, but it is foreshadowed in the interloc- utory decree. That decree is, in sub- stance, in the form of the one entered by the District Court, which we va- cated. “No Release From Arbitrary.” “It contains no injunction or award of the release against the continued imposition of the special rates and charges sought by the Government in its proposed form of interlocutory de- cree. I, therefore, deem it proper and timely to put upon the record what I think the Supreme Court said it in- tended and a recital of what the de- fendants are’ still doing. It is not pre- mature, It is in response to the motion of the Government, submitted to us after full argument.” Judge Hook protested against delaying the injunction he referred to until the final decree should be entered. He said that the District Judge had intended, originally, merely to enter a final decree in the same language as the Supreme Court’s mandate with respect to the ar- bitrary, and intimated that he thought that was what the two Circut Judges in- tended to do. “Should Be Decideq Now.” “The question of an injunction Is up for decision now,” he continued. “The combination known as the Ter- minal Association is still acting as a terminal agency. The Supreme Court holds that while doing so, certain special arbitrary charges cannot law- fully be made. If what defendants ad- mit what is still being done is wrong, it is wrong now; and the Govern-. ment is entitled to an injunction at this time and to know definitely just what is enjoined, Referring again to the Supreme Court’s order with respect to the arbitrary, June Hook, after quoting the court's full order on this sub- ject, said: . “The principal difference between my- self and my brothers, as well as be- tween counsel, is over the meaning of the last of these paragraphs (the par- agraph referring to the abolition of the arbitrary). “I think that when read as it should be read in the tight of the entire opinion and the record in the case, the meaning ie quite clear. But whoever is right, I begun with the baccalaureate address of eg Sah By hibition be expressed in the decree with such detaii gathered from the opinion end the record, that no doubt can be reasonable of its scope and purport. Kears Further Controversy. “This is especially important in a vase of injunction, a violation of which not to be done then that the decree be accompanied by an opinion indicating definitely the attitude of this court, to the end that the parties may conduct themselves accordingly. “To put the precise words of the fifth paragraph (the paragraph refrring to the arbitrary) without more, as is pro- posed, does not end the case, but es- tablishes a starting point for further controversy and litigation. “In considering the fifth paragraph it should be borne in mind that the Supreme Court holds that the Termi- nal Railroad Association can lawfully operate only as a terminal agency ot the various carrying railroads. “As such, it may make the ugsua! charges for terminal services, like switching and warehousing, but it can- not lawfully interpose itself as a trans- portation company between the West- ern roads at St. Louis and the Eastern roads in East St. Louis, and mak»? charges for services of that character. “It logically results from this that the two cities constitute one commercial and manufacturing center, connected and served by an aggregation of term- inal facilities, in which all the rail- roads are or may be interested and Which all may use. “As regards transportation rates. the several localities of this industrial center shoulg be upon a parity with- out discrimination, arbitrary or dif- ferential. Otherwise the association becomes at once an unlawful combi- nation of currying railroads.” Holds Name of Bridge Charge Is Not Important. Judge Hook said further: “It is not important what this charge for transportation across the river be- tween St. Louis and East St. Louis may be called. In the testimony it was re- ferred to interchangeably as an arbi- trary, a differential and a_ special Charge. The Supreme Court refers to it as ‘a special or go-called arbitrary charge.’ “Mr. Perkins said, ‘It makes no differ- ence what you call it, arbitrary or dif- ferential or what, it is an amount paid.’ “It is equally unimportant whether it was imposed by the Terminal Asso- clation, as was once the case, or as it is now being added by the proprietary railroads to their freight rates. In either case it is not a terminal switch- ing charge, but is a_ transportation charge, as to which the two cities are not on a parity. “Combination Not Lawful.” “The combination of terminal facih- tiles at St. Louis cannot lawfully op- erate, or be operated, as carrying rali- roads. The record before the Supreme Court showed clearly that when the sest Was taken, the special charge was not being made as a separate, distinct item, but was added to and included 'n the freight rate within the 100-mile drea “Worked Hardship on Trade.” “Mr. Perkins testified that it was still there. I think that the Supreme Court was dealing with the situation so dis- closed and with the substance, not the form. “Whether imposed by the Terminal Association as an agency, or by the pro- prietary railroads as the principals, the arbitrary was equally objectionable as a transportation charge and worked a hardship on the commerce of St. Louis. The Supreme Court Order. “I repeat here the directions of the Supreme Court: “The abolition of auy special or so-called arbitrary charge for the use of the terminal facilities in respect of the traffic originating within the so-called 100-mile area, that is not equally and in like manner ap- take it as highly desirable that the pro- plied in respect of all other traffic of a like character, originating outside that area.’ ’’ fhe Paragraph in Dispute. The paragraph containing the Supreme Court’s decision on the arbitrary, over which the controversy has been waged between counsel for the Government and may be followed by punishment; if it is { counsel for the Terminal and railroads, is as follows: “By providing for the abolition of any special or so-called arbitrary charge for use of the terminal facilities in respect to traffic originating in the so-called 100-mile area that is not equally or in like manner applied in respect to all other traffic of like character originat- ing outside of that area. Crow, for the Government, contends that it was the intention of the Supreme Court in this paragraph to completely abolish the arbitrary, but the railroads contend that this language of the courts legalizes the arbitrary, just so it is charged in all territory alike. Mxists Only in 100-Mile Zone. The arbitrary exists now only in the 100-mile area, being principally upon coal. It was abolished outside of that zone several years ago. The Government contends that under the interlocutory decree, the Terminal could legalize the arbitrary within the 100-mile zone by re-establishing it out- side of that district. Crow had directed his fight to obtain a decree that would completely wipe out the arbitrary, both inside and outside | of the 100-mile district.

JOHNSTOWN, Pa., bers of Congress were sharply arraigned here today by Representative Bartholdt of Missouri in a ‘speech at the German day celebration for their alleged atti- prohibition other He took for his June 16.—Mem- tude toward and Sumptuary legislation. text “‘Personal Liberty,’’ and called on all “‘liberal’’ citizens to join in a fight ’ to offset the ‘Puritan cause.’ “Are you aware that the last Congress , composed of a Democratic House and, Republican Senate,” ‘he demanded, | “passed a prohibition measure by more: than a teo-thirds majority; and that’ the lawyers, who constitute % per cent of the membership, knew it was Uun- constitutional, and voted for it anyhow? It is a fact. “President Taft true to his oath to! defend the legislation, had the courage — to veto the bill, but the same two- thirds majority, although eight had tak- en exactly the same oath as the Presi- dent, passed it over his veto. Liberties Are in Danger. “When things have come to such a pass that responsible law makers will overthrow the Constitution for a popu- lar fad, do you not agree with me that vour liberties, for which the Constitu- tion is our guarantee, are the great possible danger?’ The Missourian declared the struggle of the age in the United States was be- tween the Puritan and his blue laws, on one hand, and the pleasure-loving Germanic people on the other. He de- nounced the collection of funds in churches and by religious organizations,’ which, he charged, were used to intimi- date law makers in both the national and the state Legislatures. “The struggle between these two whol- ly different theories of life is on, my friends,” he said, ‘and it is becoming fiercer every day. The attempt to fur- ther and further restrict our liberties in a Puritan sense, is carried on in the carb of a religious movement, and the ministers of all churches and the mem- bers of all congregations are constantly called upon for support, and for money to maintain lobbies in both the national as well as all state capitals, and these lobbyists are cracking the whip over our law makers, and urging them to pass more and more restriction laws, laws which, in their mistaken zeal, they belleve will make people good. Worlg Stop Movement. — “I do not exaggerate, my friends, when I say that if this movement is not stopped, and stopped soon, tlie American people will find themselves wrapped up in a network of ‘don'ts’ which will completely hamper their freedom of action. And instead of be- ine free men in all matters of per- senal conduct, they will be slaves fet- tered by the chains of unamerican laws.”’ Bartholdt demanded what was to be dene to combat the prohibition move- ment. He partially answered his query by asserting that Germans throughout the I’nited States would be a unit in opposing any encroachment on their personal liberty.

Red-headed women partake of many of the characteristics of the blonde and while they are courag- eous, they are not as sturdy as the dark-haired.

The statement says Dr. Shaw “has reached a state of mind which prompts her to make wild statements and employ insulting language.”’ The statement says this dcucision was reached when Dr. Shaw “made the fol- lowing statement before the Senate Committee on Woman Suffrage: ‘We do not fear that little band of professional anti-women going around the country advocating home, heaven and mother.

In the hair business there are many crafts. Some are makers or salesmen of wigs and toupees and switches. Some are experts in perfumery and oils. But the artists are the “first-class ladies’ men.” They are the ones who can show a prima donna 11 different ways to make a coronet or a braid. And many a bud at the old Home Circis balls owed her first evening’s success to a twist given her hair by First-Class Ladies’ Man Elm. Women Walited for Him. Elm was in the heyday of his glory es a “ladies’ man’ in the period of the Home Circle balls. He had a hair dres-, sing parlor at. the Southern Hotel then. he told a reporter yesterday, and he re- how Mrs. James O'Fallon and Agsier and other famous beauties the by-gone years used to hurry wr at dusk and wait their turns fa him to dress their hair allied ‘irs, narlior for ‘he hail. used to be so great on the balls, he says, that those eouldn't eget chairs would take carpet while they waited Crusip s of the nis on the “ry turn. he was wont to go from hous: ‘ house, dressing the hair of the beau- ‘ice of the old days. Often, he says, he had so many appointments of an eve- ning that the last would not be made until midnight. But “first-class ladies’ men’ in those days were rare and even Then hourr-greeted him with a smile when he came. Louisa KeHogg, who was a prima donna pf the sixties, was one of wie customers. But Elm is old now and he wants to retire. He is at least 7l, and he may be 8. All he will say about it is that he is more than 70. But you would not think it to look at him. His eye is bright and burns with the ardor of youth. His hair is long and thick and black, as is his beard. But if you get real clese to him and look real hard at the hair and the beard, you will see that at the roots they are snow white. ‘Jearned Work From Father. ~ Bim has been dressing the hair of St. Louis women ever since the war and he has made a fortune out of it. His big, = castle style of brick and stone house t Woodland is ‘one of the finest resi- acabes in St. Loufs County. The grounds cover 16 acres. He learned the trade of hair dressing from his father in England and has been in the business ever since he can remember. | ,On retiring, he is not going to sell cut his business on Broadway, but is going to turn the whole shop, stock and all, over to his employes, of whom there are nine. He has incorporated the busi- ness and distributed gratis a fifth por- tion of\the stock among the employes. Seventy years of study of people’s hair has brought Elm to some queer conclusions. Why don’t women become bald like men do? They do, responds Elm, but they never let anyone know it. “Ms far as I am able to observe,” said Elm, “there is no more reason for a woman, But when it comes a man accepts it, whereas a woman would just as soon walk down Olive street without her shoes and stockings as without hair on her head. “The only difference is that there are more men than women who become I think this is due to men’s care- Young men going into the business today, he suys, will not put in the time studying how to make a wig, and that is the reason so many persons’ hair does not fit them. It was Elm’s skill as a wig maker that was che foundation of his fortune in St. Louis as “first-class ladies’ man." He had come to St. Louis at the close of the Civil War, after short periods in business in New York and Chicago, and established himself in a little storc- room on the ground floor of the oki Lindell Hotel at Sixth street and Washington avenue. One day he observed a corpulent put sturdy man standing bareheaded in tie Lindell lobby. With the eye of an art- ist in hair, Elm observed that this man’s hair stuck out in one place in the back ane in another place in ‘:ont in a way that first-class hair ought ret to stick. The man was Crozier, rich foundryman of North St. Louis 30 years ago. Wig That Wasn’t a Wig. ‘Dear, sir,” said Elm, seizing the stranger by the arm, “come into my shop. I wish to speak to you about your hair.’ ‘“Tmpossible,” responded Crozier. “I have no hair. This Is a wig.’’ “So I observed,” answered Elm. “I want to make you a wig that no one will know is a wig.” Elm says he did make a wig for Cro- zier that the casual observer. could not tell was a wig’and Crozier told all his bald-headed friends and business came with.a rush. Then the Lindell burned down and he estabjished his°shop in the storeroom at Walnut and Broadway on the ground floor of the old Southern. This hair dressing parlor was about the only part of the old Southern that Awas not destroyed by the fire. The fact was commented on at the time as one of the freaks of the fire. Elm says it was an idea he had which saved the store room. He says he showed the fire chief how, by keeping the hose plying on a certain point, the flames could be kept off from the hair dressing parlor. Abroad Elm will indulge an unusual fancy. He is going back to Newton Ab- bot in Devonshire, England, where he was born and learned hair dressing, to look all his poor relatives. Every year since he came to St. Louis he has taken a trip to London or Paris to buy stock and get the newest ideas in hair.

COND ORCED Millionaire, Husband of Former Virginia ‘Lee Few Months, on Trip to Alaska. Special to the Post-Dispatch. CHICAGO, June 16.—W. D. Boyce, * millionaire Chicago publisher and ex- plorer, who remarried his divorced first wife here Saturday, has departed with his bride on their second honeymoon, Which they will spend in Alaska. The interlude between their legal sep- aration in 1908 and their remarriage was eventful for the publisher. In 1910 he married Miss Virginia Lee o St. Louis, daughter of former Lieutenant-Governor John A. Lee of Missouri. They sepa- rated three months after the wedding. Last April the second wife, who was #NMany years younger than Boyce, got a divorce, custody of their baby daughter Son Opposed Marriage. This marriage was bitterly opposed by Boyce’s son, who was about the age of Miss Lee. When the father broke the news of their coming nuptials, the son attacked him and knocked him down. The wedding took place in Chicago and the pair departed at once for Europe. On their return Boyce went to Chicago and Mrs, Boyce to Santa Barbara, Cal. In a little while gossips were busy in Ft. Louis and Chicago with rumors of i.n irreparable quarrel between them. These were at first denied by relatives of both. At that time it was said that Boyce had pianned to remarry his first wife in the event of a divorce. Diverce in Galifornia. The divorce action was brought in Santa Barbara. The allegations were that Boyce had deserted his bede after three months.in London. Boyce did not offer any defense. The judge at first suspected collusion between them, but, after'a conference with Mrs. Boyce’s| lawyers decided this was not so and granted the decree. In the five years since she was di- vorced, the first Mrs. Boyce has enjoyed an annuity of $22,000, which was settled upon her by the publisher when they separated, Boyce is 52 years old.

ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH MONDAY EVENING, JUNE 16, 1913. SUMATRA GASOLINE 1614 CENTS A GALLON Rothschilds Concern Brings in Immense Cargo to Wrest Trade From Standard Oil. SAN FRANCISCO, June 16.—A new battle between the Rothschilds and the Standard Oil Co. was started here when the Dutch tank steamer Kessler arrived Saturday from Sumatra with 3,000,000 ’ gallons of gasoline. It is the best grade of ‘paraffine oil produced in the Orient and the first consignment of many which will be used to wrest from the Standard Oil Co. its American supremacy. The cargo was consigned to the Amer- ican Gasoline Co., controlled by the _ Rothschilds. The product will be dis- tributed on the Pacific Coast at 16% cents a gallon, beginning July 1. Other big tank steamers are already on the way here to increase the supply before the cargo of the Kessler has been used. MAN, 80, BITTEN BY DOG H. G.

P. I. Says He Be- lieves That Route Best for Free Bridge. FINDS GERHART PLAN HIGH Also Will Recommend That AI- ton & Mississippi Line Be Used as a Spur. President Kinsey of the Board of Public Improvements told a Post-Dis- patch reporter Monday that he would recommend to the House of Delegates, in his report on free bridge matters Tuesday night, that the Reber approach be not abandoned. While he will tell the House that the Alton & Mississippi approach would be feasible from an engineering stand- point, Kinsey holds that at least 2330 retained, and that the Alton & Missis- sippi approach, if adopted, should be made a spur of the Reber approach. City Counselor Baird recently gave an opinion that the Reber approach could not be abandoned, but that it could be amended by changing a part of the route. To Answer House Questions, Kinsey’s report to the House will not deal with the transportation side of the question, or with the matter of ex- pense, and it will not be a recommenda- tion that the Alton & Mississippi ap- proach be adopted, but merely an ex- pert answer to questions asked by the House regarding it. The House, May 20, passed a resolu- tion asking the President of the board to confer with the officials of fhe Alton & Mississippi Belt Railway & Trans- portation Co., to ascertain whether its offer to give the city a right of way over the belt line, was still open. The House also asked the President of the board to report on ths advan- tages and disadvantages of the route, and later a joint resolution of House and Council asked him to report on the feasibility of each of the proposed East Side approaches. Less Cosily Than Gerhart Route. Kinsey said that, in regard to the matter of expense, he was ready to say only that the Alton & Mississippi route would be less costly to the city than the so-called Gerhart, or northeast ap- proach. He was not prepared to make a close comparison of the cost with that of the Reber approach, as ex- tended by the Associated Retailers. The Alton & Mississippi route consists of the right of vgay for a belt line 21 miles in length, extending to Madison County, Ill, on the north. It runs southeast from the end of the bridge, then turns toward the north. “1 SHOULD WORRY,” HE SAYS TO $15,000 SUIT|/ Mascoutah Farmer Says He Has Never Been in Chicago Where Man Was Hurt by Auto. “T should worry!” was the only re- mark Frank Wolfersberger, a farmer of Mascoutah, Ill., made Monday when served with notification that John Pol- lack of Chicago had brought a $15,000 personal injuries suit against him. The farmer explained his don’t-care attitude by declaring he could prove that had not been anywhere near the place where Pollack was hurt. Pollack was run over by an automo- bile on a Chicago street. The driver of the machine never stopped to assist him. He got the license number of the car, however, and had it looked up. The records showed that tre number was issued to Wolfersberger. Wolfersberger declares he has never been out of St. Clair County with his machine and that he never was in Chi cago in his life. He believes the number on the car which hit Pollack was a forgery. he CONSTIPATION BREEDS DISEASE Keep cleansed with “ACTOIDS.” They cure Biliousness, Indigestion and Grippe 2% cents.

QUTWARD QUEET N HAWAL, BUT FEELING IS TENSE 191,000 Population in the Is- lands, Upward of 94,000 Are Japanese. JINGOES INFLAME THEM Honolulu Whites Prepared for Anything During Controversy Over Land Bill. Special Cerrespondence of the New Ycrk World and Post-Dispatch. HONOLULU, May 27.—Now that Cali- fornia has put on the lid and screwed down the cap so far as anti-alien land Ownership is concerned and it is now up to the Federal Government to carry the chip‘on its shoulder or make @ new treaty, there is probably no place in the world that is more in the world’s eye at the present moment than these islands. With more than 4,000 Japanese in a population of 191,000, Hawali is the place of all others outside of Japan where the Japanese pulse-beat can be felt with a certainty. All ‘n all, the islands are in & peculiar position, and the situation will get more peculiar until there is a final settlement of “injured feelings”’ that seem to exist on both sides of the question. If anything should happen, Hawali has 'been picked out as the first place where the Nipponese: forces would make a strike. Everything on the surface here appears as serene as a summer's day, but it’s only on the surface. From what can be learned, preparations are being made to meet anything that comes along or that is liable to turn up within the confines of Hawaill. It is the belief here that it is a good ithing to look the situation right In the face. There is little said about war with Japan, and there is nothing said that would in any wise tend to stir up 'the Japanese unnecessarily, for there is no denying that there would be some ‘thot times in the old town” if anything should be started. Firearms are being /cleaned up, and the gun stores report increased sales of automatics during the last few weeks. However, no one is losing any sleep over it. Ever since the California Legislature sprung the anti-alien land bill quite a number of prominent Japanese from the mother country have passed through Honolulu on their way to the coast with the intention of inte ceding for Japan and making an attempt at quashing the cbnoxious land bill. All have held meet- _Ings here for the benefit of the Jap- enese, and some of them have been of a fiery nature. A daily paper of this city |said that the Japanese left the hall with sreat shouting and with their eyeballs spitting fire—or words to that effect. Each of these foreign speakers has seen fit to seemingly stir up the ‘‘feel- ing’ by such utterances as: “Japanese have always been patient, but there comes a time when the Japanese race must show their manhood and be firm.’’ and “our treaty is being violated and Japan must not stand for that.” While they preached peace in the strongest terms, and bowed and scraped, characteristic of all Japanese, they ‘seemed to let no opportunity escape to ‘insert some phrase or sentence that would have the effewt of inflaming the crowd. Meetings of the Japanese have been ‘held re,ularly. At times they have be- | come extremely demonstrative, but \there are a number of cool heads who | | have caused them to listen to reason. i Since the signing of the land bill there is a lessening up of the strain. With the number of forts, barracks, i**Big Betsies,’’ mortars; disappearing searchlights and the four thousand and more troops here, Hawali feels com- paratively safe for the time being. But this is all on the fkland of Oahu, the island on which Honolulu is situated. There are three other large islanas, where many plantations are located and thousands of Japanese are employed, especially on the “big island,’’ Hawaill, where are located the majority of the Tapanese. In the event of war, {it is thought that the Japanese on this island (Oahu) could be taken care of easily, and by tying up the small interisland steamers there would be no way for the masses of Jap- anese on the other islands to reach the capital city. At the same time it Is thought that {t would be necessary to dispatch many troops to the other islands to protect the whites residing there. The exact feeling regarding the Jap- snese here is being kept strictly under ene’s hat as far as public expression {fs made, with an exception here and there of one who gives vent to his private opinion publicly expressed regarding the subjects of the Mikado, and it ts noticed that at such times he ts heartily cheered. Right in the midst of the “heated sea- son” the pastor of one of the largest churches in this city preached what he termed a “peace sermon,” the whole of Hawall should at once,.give the Japanese the franchise and all other rights that go with citizenship. From the expres- sions heard on the street it would seem that the divine had selected a most in- epportune time to spring any such ideas on American people. He has been answered rather sharply through the columns of the daily press. To show how well Hawaii has things in hand here and to what extent the Federal Government is guarding things it has been remarked that at Fort Ru- ger, that operates Battery Harlow that ruards the city of Honolulu, there is a Japanese servant in nearly every house.

BROOKINGS lIronmaster Presents Address of Congratulation on 25 Years of Peace. ‘EMPEROR AN INSPIRATION’ St. Louisan Signally Honored in Being Among First to Have an Audience. Rv Associated Press. BERLIN, June 16.—The twenty-fift" anniversary of the accession of Em peror William to the imperial throne was celebrated today throughout te German Empire as a general. holiday. The commemoration, which had been deferred from its actuai date out of respect to the memory of the Empervr'- father, Frederick, coincides with the forty-second anniversary of the trl- umphal return of his grandfather at the head of his victorious army after the Franco-Prussian war and natural!) Was marked by considerable military display. Emphasis, however, was laid also on the peacefl aspects of the Emperor’s quarter century reign—industrial anil civic developments and the material prosperity of the country. The presentation of an address from the America:' Peace Society by Andrew Carnegie, RK. S. Brookings of St. Louis and J. G. Schmidlapp of. Cincinuaai gave the Emperor an opportunity of bringing out this aspect of the occa- sion. He responded to Andrew Carne- gie’s congratulations on the completicn of his 25 years’ peaceful reign with an emphatic ‘; hope we shall have 25 years more of peace.”’ Brookings, who is president of the cor poration of Washington University, and a member of the Carnegie Peace Foun- dation, was signally honored in being selected as one of the small number of the ruler’s American guests. The address presented by the Amer- icans was, ir part, as follows: 2 Years of Unbroken Peace. “To His Imperial Majesty, the Ger- man Emperor—On behalf of organiza- tions and societies which represent the effort of American citizens of every section, creed and race to advance the cause Of civilization, we venture to ex- press to Your Imperial Majesty our con- gratulations upon a reign notable in countless ways, in none more so than in the maintenance of 25 years of un- broken peace between Germany and the other nations of the world. “The memorable words of Your Majes- ty shortly after ascending the throne, ‘The peace of my country is sacred to me,’ came both from the head and from ‘ne heart. Sacred, indeed, the peace, isc, order and the prosperity of the German people have been. . “More than once during the last 2% years it has been the high privilege »* Your Majesty not only to exercise peace. ful forbearance, but to inspire it in others. “We beg to tender our thanks to your imperial Majesty for what you have done to prevent war and to advance the coming of the day when there shall be peace upon earth and good will to men. ‘In addition to the preservation of peace, we know well that every depart- ment of the Government has received ond is receiving your symnathetic co- operation. The remarkable developments in: the commerce and the industries of Germany and the improvement of agri- culture, are due’much to Your Majesty's judicious and unwearied efforts. Advances in Every Field. “Those of us engaged in the develop- ment of the industries, the commerce, the education, the science and arts of your country and in promoting as far as lies in our power the brotherhood of man, unite in expressing to Your Maj- esty our sense of obligation for the ex- ‘nple your reign of 25 years has set. We congratulate Your Majesty upon .e notable advance niade by Germany ir. every field of human effort during your peaceful, prosperous and civilizing reign. ‘‘Long may it continue unbroken?’ LEAHY FIRM GETS $5163 FEE IN CASSIDY CASE Judge Holtcamp Allows Greater Part of Claim Which the Widow Resisted. An award of $5163.60 was made by Probate Judge Holtcamp Monday to the law firm of Leahy, Saunders & Barth for work performed for the estate of Abner C. Cassidy, a stock dealer. The firm claimed $6663 for its services, and the widow, Mrs. Antoinette Cassidy of New York, resisted the claim, declaring it excessive, but the Court, after a hearing, allowed the greater part of it. E. C. Crowley of New York appeared as Mrs. Cassidy's lawyer. A suit filed by John 8. Leahy, one of the lawyers, and involving the con- tinuance of a trust created for part of the Cassidy estate, was on trial Monday | in Judge Cave’s court. As Mrs. Cas- sidy is seeking to terminate the trust, and Leahy, as trustee, is opposing the plan.

G Result Medium Sunday POST-DISPATCH [Post-Dispatch Want Ads : the “Wants” With a PULL ) - GRAND JURY IS 0 TAKE UP DAYLIGHT STREET CAR CRASH ” Creve Coeur Passengers, More Than 20 of Whom Were Hurt, Complained to Motor- man of Speed of 30 Miles an Hour—Car Stalled on Track Struck in Daylight—Buy in Remarkable Rescue. The injuring of more than 20 passengers in e rear-end collision between two ‘‘moonlight cars’’ on the United Railways Creve Coeur Lake line in daylight, and on a straightaway stretch of track, at 7:40 p. m. Sunday will be made the subject of an investigation by the St. Louis County grand jury, witk a view to fixing the responsibility and returning indictments. This was the third serious accident on this line in five years. In each ade the others one man was killed and many passengers hurt. The investigation, according to Prosecuting Attorney Lashly, will not | be confined to an effort to determine what employe or employes of the} company were directly responsible for this particular accident. Officers and officials of the United Railways Co. ‘will be called upon to explain why cars are permittec to run close together and at high speed with na block signal system or other adequate safeguard against accidents. Passengers on the crowded car winci crashed into another which had bee: stalled Sunday evening protested agains the speed and apparent recklessnes with which Motorman John F. Harnw: ran the car. Several of them Monday said that they saw the danger of a eollision and that they saw the car ahead and warned Harmon to cur slower. Speed 30 Miles an Hour. The motciman, they said, maintatacd the speed until it was too late for cre airbrakes to stop the car in time to prevent a wreck. These passengers say , that the car was running at least % > miles an hcur and was within a short distance of the car ahead when Har- inon applied the air to the brakes. At the De Baliviere sheds of the Unit- ed Railways Co. it was said that the schedule running time between De Bali- viere avenue and Creve Coeur Lake, a distance of 18 miles, is 4 minutes. To cover this distance in the allotted time, without any stops, a motorman would have to run his car 24 miles an hour, Many stops are necessary on this line on. a busy Sunday. Picknickers.get on and off the cars at many stations. In order to make up for these stops and still get to Creve Coeur Lake in the allotted 45 minutes, the motormen must maintain a speed of considerably more than 24 miles an hour. Passengers Feared Disaster. Mrs. Christina Thielman of 1006 North Compton avenue, one of the injured pas- sengers, said that Harmon ran his car at terrific speed between Creve Coeur Lake and the place where the wreck occurred. She said she heard severai passengers say: “This motorman will kill us all before we get to town.” Mrs. Thielman’s daughter, Mrs. Walter Wat’ son, who also was on the car, said she noticed that a sign at a trestle in- structed all motormen to slow down .o a speed of six miles an hour, but Har- mon ignored the sign and took the tres- tle at high speed. Elijah Bigham of 2211 South = Thir- teenth street, who was on Harmon's car with his wife and baby, said that many of the passengers were fright- ened at the speed with which the car was being run and called out warnings to the motormen. Bigham said the car was rocking to such an extent that many passengers feared their small children would be hurled from it. Capt. McCulloch, president and ,en- eral manager of the United Railwavs Co., told a Post-Dispatch reporter that cars on the Creve Coeur line were run- ning less than five minutes apart Sun- day afternoon. Motorman’s Excuses ented. Motorman Harmon at arst “said thar his airprake failed to work. This was denied by passengers. Later Harmon said that 5,2 failed to see the other car because some bright light blinded ‘im. Passengers know of no such light. The to St Louis from the lake, sun had just set and no headlights aad been lighted on any of the cars. The passengers can find only one. explana . tion for the wreck. They say it was dae solely to what they regard as the criminal carelessness in the running of Harmon's car. The accident occurred at Marion Sima avenue, five miles west of St. Louls and near the Midland Valley Golf Club grounds. Two cars had been stopped because of a broken guy wire. They were loaded with passengers returning when a third eastbound car, also crowded, crashed into the rearmost of the mo- } tlonless cars. ~ tured, head, Those Most Seriously Hurt. Those most seriously injured were: Mrs. Dora Bigham, 24, 2211 South Thir- ‘teenth street, right hip, thigh and leg fractured and internally hurt. Mrs. H. J.

Mrs. Rena Carouthers, 55, 1531 South Ninth street, right hip and thigh and left arm broken, hands and feet crushed. H. J. Davis, 1518 Lafayette avenue, spine injured and leg wrenched. Mr. and Mrs. Davis were so badly hurt ~~ they could not be brought to St. Louis. id Wilton Carouthers of 1531 South 1 inth street, who leaped from the second ar with 2-year-old Vivian Bigham in is arms, both escaping without serious ajury. He was sitting on the front seat of the car and might have been crushed to death if he had not jumped off. Wilton saw the motorman set nis brakes and jump, and also saw the other car just ahead. With the baby in his arms, he stepped to the side of the car and jumped as far as he Gould a mo- ment before the crash. He fell in a field, where he and Vivian were picked up later. Mrs. Bigham and her husband, Elijah, gave an outing Sunday to her mother, Mrs. Reina Carouthers, and other rela- tives, who were going to Arkansas to spend the summer. Mr. and Mrs. Davis weré in her party. Mrs. Bigham and her party, with the exception of Wilton and the baby, occupied the third and fourth seats from the motorman. Cars Are Run at High Speed. The accident occurred on the United Railways division which is most popular with Sunday outing crowds, and on which cars are run at short intervals and high speed. Officials of the company Monday said they were trying to place responsibility for the collision. Motorman John F. Harmon and Con- ductor Judson Tremain were in charge of car No. 816, which crashed into car No. 800, which was motionless, and manned by Motorman John E. Lang- ston. and Conductor J. W. Futhey. Both cars were of the “moonlight’’ type of summer car, with cross seats and canvas tops. While passengers on car 816 saw the motionless car ahead, Harmon, the mo- torman, said after the collision that he did not see it until too late to stop his car. When he did try to stop, he said, the airbrake failed to work. Two Cars Are Teiescoped. Harmon’s car struck the one ahead with such force that the cars were tele- scoped and half the front seats of Har- mon’s car and the rear seats of the other were demolished. The passengers of the forward car had seen the wreck impending and jumped to safety. The cars were so wedged together that a wrecking crew failed to get them apart and they were towed into. the city, still telescoped. Dr. Hogan, who was among the first to reach the injured, told a Post-Dis- patch reporter that, according to ac: counts given’to him by passengers, tne wreck occurred because the cars wer? running so close together and at such high speed that it was impossible for the motorman of the following car to stop in time to prevent a collision. Passengers told Hogan that Motorman Harmon had been using his airbrake throughout the trip and that it was working well. They also said that the air “took hold’ when Harmon tried to stop his car just before the wreck, but the distance was too short. Capt. McCulloch, president and gen- eral manager of the United Railways Co., Monday confirmed the statement that the cars were running in very short space. McCulloch Discusses Accident. “It is necessary to run the cars very close together on that line on Sundays to accommodate the traffic,” said Capt. McCulloch. “The public demands quick and adequate transportation to and from the lake. It would be impracti- cal to operate a block system on that line because the cars run so close to- gether that there would always be two or more in the same block.” As to Motorman Harmon's statement that his air brake failed to work, Capt. McCulloch said: ‘That is the motor- man's usual excuse for an accident. ’ Cars on the Creve Coeur Lake line are run at high speed, especially on Sun- cays. Eighteen extra cars are added to the usual equipment of six cars for the Sunday traffic and the cars run about two and one-half minutes apart. The extra cars are manned by motormen and conductors drawn from other divi- sions. These men as a rule have only a slight acquaintance with the Creve 3 PAGES 9—16.

Mrs. Harry Perry of 309 Bell avenue went to the Mounted District Police Station Monday and reported that she was forcibly taken away from her hus- band in Forest Park at 1:30 a. m. by five men, representing themselves 4s detectives, and taken to a ravine and attacked. She was accompanied by her husband when she made the report. She told the‘police she and her hus- band went to the park at 10 p. m. Sun- day, and sat down on a bench about 30 — feet from the Chouteau avenue station. They fell asleep on the bench. “T was awakened at 1:30 by some one grabbing me roughly by the arm,” she told the police. “I saw five men gath- ered around us, two of them holding my husband. They said they were detec- tives and wanted to know what we were doing there. I started to explain, but they ordered my husband to leave, say- ing they were going to take me to the police station. ‘He protested, but they forced him to go away, and started across the park with me, saying they were going to take me to the Mounted District Police Sta- tion. They stopped in a ravine and knocked me down. They held me a . prisoner for half an hour, and released me. I went back to the Chouteau Ave- nue Station,. and there found my hus- band. He had been wandering around trying to fine some one to help him ob- tain my release from’ what he believed to be detectives.” Mrs. Perry said she hearll one of the men called Candy, and another Mur- phy.

Under the common law which goes back 10 er more centuries in America and the British islands, every man attacked who “backs to the wall” which prevents him from retreating further, has a right to put his back against the ‘wall and do his best, as the “fanatical Moros” ‘are now doing in the Philippines. When we read of the “heroes of the Alamo,” dying with their backs to the wall, we do not stop to ask whether they are fanatical or not or even whether they were wholly right or not. We thrill in answer to the story of one of the “best fights” in American history. So of the fight on Wounded Knee creek under the admin- (stration of Benjamin Harrison. We know that. it was a great fight, when a hundred Dakotas, after being cheated, starved and oppressed into intolerable degradation on their reservation by American “grafters,” left the reservation and took up position for their last stand. When, surrounded on all sides by machine guns and rapid firing rifies, they stood in their wretched rags, sang their tribal death song and fought to the last man, this appeals to us once more as an illustration of what “the best fighting” means. We do not stop to ask how “fanatical” they were ‘in dying. We feel somehow, that when the worst comes to the worst, men do their best with their backs to the wall, keep humanity from being hopeless of itself ér wholly ashamed of itself. So of the “Crater Massacre,” in the Philippines‘ —we can never forget it when the “fanatical Moros” for whom there was no chance of escape from the machine guns which circled the crater, fought as long as they had a man to keep his feet. We may easily forget whether it was Capt. Pershing or some other officer who was made a Brigadier-General for killing them in carrying out “our policies,” but what we cannot forget, is the quality of the courage which shows at its best in its last extremity with its back to the wall. When pushed to the 1 extremity, “fa- natical Moros,” are once more doing their best, it is sure of being remembered long after all explanations of why they ought to be killed are forgotten. . We could wish that our “brown brothers” in the Philippines would practice Christian civiliza- tion” as it is “our policy” to teach it. Then by “turning the other cheek”; they might escape the last extremity. Still in their behalf, if not im our own, we feel that “the next best thing to Mving victorious, is dying game.” One tribute to the Kaiser is that in the twen- ty-fifth year of his reign the emigration from Germany was only 18,545. It was considerably greater during the lifetime of Bismarck, ap- * praised by history as a greater man. = = % a, “ae ' POSTAL BANKS AND EDUCATION. Congressman John E.

Artist Theodore Dube—which is tantalizingly suggestive of Daub—is doing a portrait in oils of President Wilson for exhibit at the Paris salon. If what the artist says about the Presi- dent’s face is a clew to the way he is painting ic, he justifies the suggested name. For he de clares that Mr. Wilson’s face is utterly unique and unlike any other. There will be a prominent citizen or two in almost every town who will resent this blow at their distinction. St. Loyis, for its part, has two eminent jurists who justly pride themselves on looking like Wilson. For he is a type and evi- dently one which the Creator admired since it was so frequently made the pattern. Thousands of lantern-jawed men are vain of the features of him who so modestly sang: “For beauty I am not a star; There are others handsomer far, But my face—I don’t mind it, For I am behind it; It’s the people in front that I jar.” A good many of our Presidents have been men of jaw—and this in no invidious sense. George Washington, albeit a handsome man, is portrayed as slightly “undershot.” So was John Adama, though his face was so round that the ‘protrud- ing feature was inconspicuous. The mouthpiece of the nation and the world’s democracy was strongly set in Thomas Jefferson. Old John Quincy Adams had by no means a weak chin, and “Old Hickory” Jackson's jaw was the model of Wilson's. Martin Van Buren’s was of the slightly modified but still plain type sometimes called “jimberjawed.” Lincoln’s portraits give him a great length of jaw line and a protruding nether lip. If Artist Dube in proclaiming Wilson unique is hinting at a purpose to make Wilson merely beautiful (which would necessarily be at the expense of the jaw) we warn him against tamper- ing with this much-prizeq American feature and mainstay. Next to Wilson’s backbone, Wilson's noble jaw is the thing upon which the country is chiefly relying just now. = = i i The legal bar on the funds of the Mark Twain monument commission is a joke Mark himself would appreciate. a RATIO OF SALOON DENS TO POPULATION. Whether the legal ratio of law-abiding saloons is fixed at one to every 500 of St. Louis popula- tion, or at one to some other figure, there is no doubt as to what the ratio of disorderly, law- defying saloons should be. That ratio should be fixed at 0 saloons for each 687,407 of population and should be shifted to prevent any, increase in that kind of saloons as population increases. The license of the third disorderly saloon to be put out of business in a month has just been revoked by the Excise Commissioner. Consid- erable work still remains to be done before the 0-to-687,407 ratio is approximated, but the sup- pression of the three dens already dealt with is noted with public approval. Other property-de- preciating places of the same class should heed the warning. = = ~~ Fr The Hon. A. B. Lambert is going to try for a hydroaeroplane pilot’s license. If he is smart he will take Col.

Arbitration will have won one of the greatest of all its triumphs, if it can tranquilize the un- fortunate squabbling among the Balkan states. Ac- ceptance of the suggestion of Russia, which has the same relation to them the United States has to certain Latin-American states, came at a critical time. Each race is over-elated and inclined to an absurd estimate of its own part in contributing to the Turkish rout. Each displays a large, conspicu- ous chip on the shoulder of its Balkan blouse. Their jealous animosities are the greater because of the, very fact that they have lately been in al- liance and are as difficult to harmonize as the re- sentments of civil war. Indeed, war now among these allies would have ‘the essential features of civil war, with all its bitterness. Its sufficiency to so perilous a crisis may put the arbitration principle on a new plane in Europe. Enlightened diplomacy and Algeciras and London conferences have done valued service there in the cause of peace, but arbitration as understood on this side of the water has been little employed in adjusting distinctively European disputes. Europe is very familiar with the principle, but this is due chiefly to the service of its rulers as umpire in ar- bitrations to which some country of the Western Hemisphere has been a party. If arbitration can satisfactorily and permanently dispose of 45,000 square miles of territory in land- hungry Europe, it ought to acquire a repute in war prevention on that continent as great as it already enjoys on this. The rear-end street car collision should be ob- solete. Systematic and automatic precaution would make & go. = = * i i MAKE LODGE REPAY THE $16,000. Public docwnents printed at the Government Printing Office under the order of either house are entitled to be franked through the mails. Exact reprints of matter which has previously appeared in the Congressional Record are also entitled to free transmission under the signature of a member, whether the reprint is made at the Government Printing Office or elsewhere. But the 63-page pamphlet of which the sugar lobby sent 320,000 copies through the mails un- der Senator Lodge’s frank was neither an exact reprint from the Record nor“matter on whose publication as a document the Senate had pro nounced. The lobbyists made additions to and changes in the copy to suit their own purposes. Its carriage without payment of charges was & $16,000 fraud on the Postoffice Department. So plain a technical violation of the letter of the law and so flagrant a violation of the spirit of the law should not be dismissed without ac tion directing attention to its character. Why should not Senator Lodge be sued for the $16,000 lost to the department through the transaction? Or why should he not be sued jointly with the particular lobbyists who mailed the pamphiets?

To the Editor of the Post-Dispatcr The question of adequate transportation in this city is more than the question of furnishing a seat for every passenger. While this can be done,» and is done in other cities larger than 8t. Louis, where the problems are more complicated, the real proposition for the average St. Louisan during the rush hours in St. Louis is not a seat, but the possibility of getting standing room on a car. Here is a practical fllustration. I am located at Seventeenth street and Washington avenue, and frequently have to take a street car down- tewn. It not infrequently happens that from the top of the hill at Seventeenth street I can see the receding car disappearing at about Seventh street, while the next car is coming around the corner of Jefferson avenue or Twenty-sixth street.* As @ result the cars are crowded even at this time of the day, a situation which Is not warranted by any condition existing, and which I am confi- — oe be tolerated in any other city. F. WwW. CS The Full Crew Law. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The letter on the full crew law is misleading. Before the days of air brakes and automatic couplers, three brakemen were necessary. Now, with the air brake, the engineer is the brakeman; a third man is no more needed than 12 wheels on one wagon. They have nothing to do but ride and look wise and some of them don’t look that way. On the division on which I work they are called ornaments; they add nothing to efficiency or safety. The State of Missour! ordered their employment the same as any other State official. It seems to me the State legally is responsible for their wages. Has Missouri! a half million to give out this way every year or not? ENGINEER. Proposed Advance in BR. R. Rates.

Since the pay-as-you-enter cars have been in use, it takes considerable time during the rush hours for all the passengers to board the car. Most conductors seem to become impatient un- der such conditions, and generally give the mo- torman the starting signal while there are still four or five men or boys to get on. In order to ride home or downtown morning and evening half the men must take a chance and hang on the outside of the car for some distance. This might be remedied by the cond&ctors receiving notice to be more careful. T. M. ®. ‘*Absolution Is Free,’’ fo the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. ‘Popes s0ld absolution for the most horrible excesses.” The writer of the first editorial in your Wednesday evening’s issue quotes this line as if it were true. The sentence serves as a fair type of a kind of literature which has poisoned the minds of not a few honest men in England, where it was originally written, as well as in other lands, against our chureh. To Catholics the statement carries its refutation on its face. I ask the privilege of your columns to make its absurdity evident to your other readers who are lovers of the truth. In virtue of the words of the Savior, “Whose sins you shall forgive, they are forgiven,” the Catholic Church teaches that all her priests, Popes included, have power of forgiving sins, pro- nouncing pardon or granting absolution (cal) it what you will) to repentent sinners. By the teaching of the same church the priest not only may, but must, grant this absolution to all sinners who come to him contritely confessing their sins. I am not asking your readers to accept this con- soling doctrine of the old Mother Church just now, but I do ask them to keep before their minds for @ moment just what the teaching is and has ever been on this point, namely, that all priests, even Popes, must freely grant absolution to all penitents who rightly seek it. It was stated in the editorial that the Popes sold absolution. It was like saying they sold the air. Why should any shrewd old sinner pay papal prices for a commodity that he could get from any priest in Christendom for absolutely nothing? Not only could he get it for nothing, but he could get it much more securely for nothing. Common sense tells us, and Catholic doctrine concurs in teaching that !f a Pope were to try to sell absolution he would sin and sin griev- ously, and the purchaser would sin grievously also. Why then should a man who is striving to obtain absolution or forgiveness for his sins not go and obtain it easily and securely for nothing from any priest, rather than put himself to the inconvenience of seeing the Pope and paying him money by which the conscience is burdened with another sin without being cleansed of its former stains? Were the money-burdened men.so prod- igal of their coin in the brave days of old? Your paper every now and then recites the story of priests of our time who risk thefr lives In fires and flood and pestilence and war just to be able to give absolution—and give it for nothing—to all manner of persons, rich as well as poor, but especially to those guilty of “horrible excesses.” There never was an age in which there was not an abundance of suth priests in the church, and there never was an age in which Popes needed to sell, the Senator annoyance. The suit would fix more coulé sell or s6ld indulgences. St. Louts. JOHN SMITH.

The shop was go full of wonderful flowers that, once among them, I found some dif- * ficulty in making m¥ choice. Hence I : : t missed the train, and returned to my studio, incensed by the delay. A let- ter for me had just been delivered. It told me that on the previous morning Berthe had married my brother. I coula have welcomed a pistol shot —my world rocked. Berthe lost, false, Gregoire’s wife! I reiterated it, I said it over and over, I was stricken by it—and yet I could not realize that | actually it had happened.

Ah, that mocked me, that I could not tear! A year before I should have rushed to the cafes for forgetfulness, but now, as the shock subsided, I turned feverishly to work. I told my- self that she had wrecked my peace, my faith in women, that I hated and despised her; but I swore that she the triumph of wrecking my career, too. I said that my art still remained to me—that 1 would find oblivion in my art. Rrave words! But one does not re- eover from such blows 80 easily. ‘o> months I persisted, denying my- self the smallest respite, clinging to a resolution which proved vainer ‘daily. Were art to be mastered by dogged endeavor, I should have con- quered, but alas! though I could com- pel myself to paint, I could not com- pel myself to paint well. It was the perception of this fact that shattered me at last. I had fought temptation for half a year,.worked with my teeth clenched, worked against na- ture, worked while my pulses beat and clamored for the draughts of dissipation, which promised a speed- fer release, I had woed Art, not as her lover, but as a tortured soul may turn to one woman in the desperate hope of subduing his passion for an- other—and Art would yield nothing to a suitor who approached her so, I recognized that my work had been wasted, that the struggle had been useless—I broke down. T need say little of the months that followed—it would be a rebt- ord of degradations, and remorse; alternately, I fell, and was ashamed. There were days when I never left the house, when I was repulsive to myself! I shuddered at the horrors that I had committed. No saint has loved virtue better than I did during those long sick Gays of self-disgust; no man was ever more sure of defying such hideous temp- tations if they recurred. As my lassi- tude passed I would take up my brushes and feel confident for an hour, or for @ week. And then temptation would ereep on me once more—humming in my ears, and tingling in my veins. And temptation had lost its loathsomeness now—it looked again attractive It was a siren, it dizzied my conscience, and stupefied my common sense. Back to the mire! One afternoon when I returned to mv rooms, from which I had been absent since the previous day, I heard from the concierge that a visitor awaited me. 1! _ elimbed the stairs witbout anticipation. 7 - oa My thoughte were sluggish, my limbs leaden, my eyes heavy and bloodshot. ‘wilight had gathered, and as I entered I discerned merely the figure of a wom- an. Then she advanced—and all hel) seemed to leap flaring to my heart. My visitor was Berthe. I think nearly a minute must have passed while we looked speechlessly in each other’s face—hers convulsed by * entreaty, mine dark with hate. “Have you no word for me?” she whispered. “Permit me to offer my congratula- tions on your marriage, madame,” I sald. “I have had no earlier oppor- tunity.” “Forgive me,” she gasped. “I have come to beseech your forgiveness! Can the wrong I did you?’ i ‘ Now I understood what had procured me the honor of a visit from this woman, and I triumphed devilishly that I was the elder twin. *“‘Madame,”’ I answered, “I think that | owe you no explanations, but I shall say this: the evil. courses that you de- plore were adopted, not vindictively, but in the effort to numb the agony that you had made me suffer. You but reap as you have sown.” *“Reform!”’ she sobbed. She sank on her knees before me. “Silvestre, in mercy to us, reform!’’ “I will never reform,” I sald inflex- ibly. “I will grow more abandoned day by day—my past faults shall shine as merits compared with the atrocities that are to come. False girl, monster of selfishness, you are dragging me to the gutter, and your only grief is that he must share my shame! You have robbed me of my soul, and you have no regret but that my iniquities must react on him! By the shock that stunned him in the first flush of your honeymoon, you know what I experienced when I re- ceived the news of your deceit; by the anguish of repentance that ~ overtakes him after each of his orgies, which re volt you, you know that I was capable of being a nobler man. The degrada- tion that you behold is your own work. You have made me bad, and you must bear the consequences—you cannot now make me good to save your husband!” Humbled and despairing, she left me. I repeat that it is no part of my con- fession to palliate my guilt; the sight of her had served merely to inflame my resentment—and it was at this stage that I began deliberately to contemplate revenge. | But not the one that I had threatened. Oh, no! I bethought myself of a venge- ance more complete than that! What, after all, were these escapades of his that were followed by contrition, that saw him again and again a penitent at her feet? There should be no more of such trifles; she should be tortured with the torture that she had dealt to me—I would make him adore another woman with all his heart and brain! It was difficult, for first I must adore, and tire, of another woman myself—as my own passion faded, his would be born. I swore, however, that I would compass it, that I would worship some woman for a year—two years, as long as possible. Though he would be at peace in the meantime, the longer my enslave- ment lasted, the longer Berthe would suffer when her punshment began. For some weeks now I worked again, to provide myself with money. I bought new clothes and made myself presenta- ble. When my appearafice accorded bet- ter with my plan, I paraded Paris, seek- ing the woman to adore. ’ You may think Paris is full of ador- able women? Well, so contrary its hu- man nature, that never had I felt such indifference toward the sex as during that tedious quest; never had a pair of brilliant eyes, or a well-turned neck ap- pealed to me so little. After a month, my search seemed hopeless: I had viewed women by the thousand, but not one with whom I could persuade myself that I might fall violently tn love. How true it fs that only the unfore- seen comes to pass! There was a model. one Louise, whose fortune was her back, and who had long bored me by an evi- dent tenderness. One day, this Louise, usually so Constrained in my presence, appeared in high spirits, and mentioned that she was going to be married. The change in her demeanor interest- ed me; for the first time, I perceived that the attractions of Louise were not limited to her back. A little piqued, I invited her to ‘dine with me. If she had said “yes,” doubt- less that would have been the end of my interest; but she refused. Before I parted from her, I made an appoint- tnent for her to sit to me the next morning. “So you are Louise?” I palette. “In truth,” she answered. “No regrets?” “What regrets could I have? He is a very pretty boy, and well-to-do, believe me!" “And I am not a pretty boy, nor well- to-do, hein?’ “Oh,” she laughed, “you do not care for me!” “Is it so? I said. “What would you say if I told you that I did care?” “I should say that you told me too late, monsieur,’ she replied, with a shrug. “‘Are you ready for me to pose?” And this changed woman turned her — back on me without a seru- ple. A little mortified, r attended strictly to business for the rest of the morning. But I found myself, on the following day, waiting for her with impatience. “And when is the event to take place?’ I inquired, more eagerly than I chose to acknowledge. This was by no means the sort of enchantress that I had been seeking, you understand. “In the spring,” she said. “Look at the ring he has given to me, mon- sieur; is it not beautiful?” I remarked that Louise's hands were very well shaped, and, indeed, happi- SD CASTORIA going to be married, said carelessly, as I set the HOM the elevator boss’ business In which our hero, with the aid of boy, booms his with astounding and startling results. every minute. , This is No. 6 in the series of extraordinary doings of the slickest office boy in St. Louis.

Say, Eeth’,” I says, ‘I’m goin’ to become o’ this dump.” “Is that what you’re hired for?’ she says. “Maybe not,” I says. “But I got am- bitions,”” I says. “‘I’d like for to see things rushin’ here like they do down the hall at Lawyer Schmalz’s. Look down there,” I says, holdin’ the door open, “there goes a couple more |§in, and the only livin’ thing that’s come near our ranch so fur is the letter car- rier.

I’m swappin’ baseball dope wid Joe, the bootblack, down by the elevators, when in comes a lady wid a black eye and a baby, and she says to me: “Is they a lawyer in the buildin’, young man?’ I’m just about to snag her when Mike, the starter, butts in. “Sure, lady,” he says. “Lawyer Schmalz, room 1823,"" he says.

They come in lookin’ for a law factory and Mike shoots ‘em up to Schmalz, Well, well, this is worth lookin’ into!’’ So I begins to pound me bean for to find some way 0 gettin’ into the game. At first I thinks I’ll tel] Mike I’m next to him and offer him twicet whatever Schmalz gives him if he’jl steer them into our mill; but I ain’t any too strong wid the wig roughneck. Then I thinks o’ Samniy, the Swede chauffeur o’ the elevator. Him and me’s thick as a couple o’ gun- men. So I slips into the car and says to him: “How much does Mike hand you,* I says, “for all them guys you lugs up to Schmalz’s sweatshop?” I says. “Me?” ho says. “Nuttin’.. Why?’ ‘“‘Why shouldn’t he?” I says. “He gets his, all right, and you’d oughter be fn on it.

Start in,” I saya, “and see. You know the name—Hadley—room 1907. Keep track o’ how many you shout us,’ I says, “and leave the rest of it to me!” I goes back to the ranch and wafta, wonderin’ will it work. Pretty soon the boss comes in and goes into his inside office. . “Any clients called?” he sings out. ‘Not yet, sir,” I says. “It's early yet.” ‘ He gives a kind of sick little laugh, like he was discouraged, and I says ¢) ann ness had brought ae certain Gharm to her face. “Do you know, Louise, that I am sorry that you are going to marry?” I exclaimed. “Oh, get out!” she laughed, pushing me away. “It is no good your talking nonsense to me now, don’t flatter your- self!’’ Pouchin, the sculptor, happened to come in at that moment. “Oho,” he shouted, “‘what changes are to be seen! The nose of our brave Silvester is out of joint now we are affianced, hein?’ She joined in his laughter against me, and I picked up my brush again in a vile humor. Well, as I have sald, she was not the kind of woman I had contemplated, but these things arrange themselves—I be- came seriously enamoured of her. And, recognizing that Fate works with her own instruments, I did not struggle. For months I was at Louise’s heels; I ‘was the sport of her whims, and her slights, sometimes even of her ingults. I actu- ally made her an offer of marriage, at which she snapped her white fingers, with a grimace—and the more she ficut- ed me, the more fascinated I grew. In that rapturous hour when her insolent eyes softened to sentiment, when her mocking mouth melted to a kiss, I was in Paradise, ecstasy was so supreme that I forgot to triumph at my ap- proaching vengeance. ‘So I married Louise; and. yesterday was the twentieth anniversary of our wedding. Berthe? To speak the truth, Jmy plot against her was frustrated by = accident. You see, before I could communicate my passion to Gregoire I had to recover from it, and—this inso- lent Loulse!—I have not recovered from it yet. There are days when she turns her remarkable back on me now-—gen- erally when I am idle—but, mon Dieu! the moments when she turns her lips are worth working for. Therefore, Berthe has been all the time quite hap- py with the good Gregoire—and since i possess Louise, upon my word of honor I do not mind! THE END.

The event has attracted 231 golfers, a surprisingly large number, in- asmuch as both local and out-of-town players were tardy in entering the event. A few days ago it seemed that the entry would be a small one, but the experts entered with a rush at the last minute. The 82 players making the lowest scores in the qualifying round Monday will compete for the championship. The next 82 lowest score makers will com- pete for the President’s Cup, while the follewing 82 will be eligible for the Di- rectors’ Cup. Players eliminated in the first round of play in the championship flight will be eligible to play for the Consolation Cup, and players losing in the first round of the President Cup competition will play for the Secretary’s Cup. Champion Will Net Compete. While the out-of-town entry is a large one, Harry G. Legg of Minneapolis, the four-time winner of the tournament, ts" missing. Legg was unable to come to St. Louis because he is a member of an ‘s making a tour of the Pacific Coast. His faflure to come here in an effort. to win the title for the fifth consecutive time has caused some surprise among the golfers. Legg’s absence, however, will not mean a lack of good competition.

By JOHN J. McGRAW, Manager of the Giants? -AM convinced that the Philadelphia club is the one the Giants will have to beat to win the pennant. The Phillies are sticking out in front there with great persistency and refusing to budge. They have played pretty well around the circuit and have stood up, well against all the clubs, much tect] than I expected they would. It has long been my opinion that the Phillies are playing beyond their natural speed, but perhaps this is the first sea- son they have hit their normal gait un- der the efficient management of Dooin and Locke. The pitching staff opened like a whirlwind, and it is going like a whirlwind yet, although I thought it had been torn wide open in the series with the Giants in the last part of May. The Phillies have shown the most consistent form of any team in the League so far. Whether or not they win the pennant Gepends upon whether they can hold this form or something fairly close to it. Alexander, Seaton, Chalmers and Rix- ey were the four twirlers who carried the burden in the early part of the trav- eling. Then Chalmers and Rixey showed signs of declining, and now young May- er is flashing a lot of good games for his club. Rixey is also working smooth- ly again, so that Dooin has a quartet of substantial pitchers. Fight in the Team. There is. more fight in the team than it has shown in previous seasons.

Cravath has been one of the wallopers of the League this sea- son, and is batting right up at the top. Magee is a reliable sticker, and Luder- us, Knabe, Doolan and Lobert are all going better than they did previously. If a couple of the first string men should be injured, Dooin would be badly off for substitutes, but luck has been with the club so far and it may stick throughout'the season, In which case the Phillies are going to be a very tough bunch of boys to beat.
