PRICE ONE CENT ~ LETTING ARMS BE ~ SENTINTO MEXICO ‘Conferences Betv Between Presi- dent and Congressional _ Leaders Planned to Discuss Repeal of Neutrality Stat- ' ute, Which Leaders Seem ' to Favor. SUCH ACTION WOULD HELP INSURGENTS Acting Scretary Roosevelt Orders Admiral to Investi- gate Reported Holding for Ransom of American Rail- way Chief. ————————— By Associated Press WASHINGTON, July 23.—Repeal of fhe neutrality proclamation prohibiting exportation of arms to Mexico is being considered by the administration as the next step in the Mexican situation. Con- ferences between President Wilson and congressional leaders were planned to- day for a discussion of the proposal to which many leaders have given their approval. While official statements were lacking | today as to what support President Wil- gon has given to the project, a partial canvass of the House and Senate For- eign Affairs Committees today led those interested in the move to believe that the prohibition against shipments of arms could be repealed with little delay. Might Adjust Itself. It is understood to be the belief of pméministration officials that should free @xportation of arms be permitted to all factions in Mexico, the present situation might adjust itself. The Constitutional ists repeatedly have said that lack of arms was the only bar to quick victory. The repeal is proposed on the ground that there is no recognized government in Mexico and that when the prohibition was enacted a regularly constituted gov- ernment. recognized officially by the United States, was in existence. Acting Secretary Roosevelt today calied on Rear Admiral Cowles at Guay- mas to investigate the report that Thom- as Hind, assistant general superintend- ent of the Southern Pacific Railway in Mexico, is held for ransom by Mexican Federals there. The State Department was without information on the incident. The supply ship Buffalo has gone from Guaymas to Topolobampo and report- ed conditions quiet at the latter port, ana the battleship Louisiana, which went to Tuxpam, has returned to Vera Cruz. - his latter movement leads Navy De- pertment officials to conclude that a measure of order has been restored at Tuxpam, relieving Americans of the @anger they were in when the battleship ‘was sent there under rush orders. State Department reports today said that, while the activities of American cowboys at Madera has strained condi- tions there, there is said to be little dan- @er except to the persons responsible for the killing of two “El Mgohos” ban- dite. Gen. Pancho Villa of the Constitu- tionalist forces is reported to be tak- ing an interest in the safety of Ameri- cans at Madera, the Federals having no force in the neighborhood. Suspension of communication between Saltillo and Monterey and Torreon is reported from Saltillo with no communi- cation over the National Railway to the -pouth. No further discussion of Mexican af- fairs was had today in the Senate. Sen- ator Fall’s resolution for protection of - Americans there had gone to the calen- dar and Fall did not attempt to renew the request for action on it. JAPANESE SPEECH EXCITES MEXICO T eeeneeeneeenneiel New Minister Said to Have De- ' clared His Country Was Ally Because of U. S. MEXICO CITY, July 23.—The Japanese Minister to Mexico on his arrival here yesterday was met by 5000 cheering * Mexicans, and the extraordinary cor- @lality of his reception brought from him a speech which has aroused ex- cited comment everywhere in the capi- tal, and which Mr. O'Shaughnessy, charge d'affairs of the United States 2 Jegation, promptly has taken steps to have transmitted to Washington with his own deduction as to its purport. he Japanese Minister, greeted with. @ chorus of “Banzai,” made an address Japanese, translated into Spanish by _ ghe of his attaches, and thus spoken oer to the crowd. This makes not at al! wend the full purport of the diplo- oS ae mat’s remarks, but it is intimated that he announced the existence of a strong hotel bilis ‘by sleeping on an adjoining solved Wednesday when the police re- |St. Louis to Get Time Each Day by 800-Mile Wireless| Municipal Clocks Will Ee Set by Accurate Government Observations, if Plans of Fire Alarm Official Are Successful. Municipal clocks in St. Louis will be set daily at accurate time to be received by wireless telegraph from the Wnited States Government station at Arlington, Va., if the plans of J. McD. Johns, Su- perintendent of the Police and Tire Alarm Telegraph, succeed. A wireless receiving station is now be- ing constructed on the city hall of suf- ficient power to receive wireless flashes from the Government observatory 800 miles distant. Rallroads May Install Wireless. Railroads are considering the construc- tion of wireless receiving towers at Union Station, where correct time may be received to regulate watches of train- men. If this is done, St. Louis will be- come the time center of the Mississippi Valley. When the city hall wireless apparatus is in working order an operator will press a button which regulates to the fraction of a second the master-clock operating the city time system. All of the other municipal clocks will be set automatically by the master-clock. ; St. Louis. U. Gets Time. Government time from Arlington Its now being received at 9 o’clock every night at the St. Louis University obser- vatory, Grand avenue and Pine streets, the largest wireless station west of the Great Lakes. Steel towers 150 feet above the ground have recently been installed. Henry L. Dahm, 20 years old, a stu- dent, is in charge of the wireless sta- tion. He is co-operating with Johns in the installation of the municipal receiv- ing station. Could Regulate All Clocks. With four or five wires placed in a spare room it is possible, according to Dahm, to set accurately each day all of the clocks in St. Louis residences and business houses. Connections can be made with a wire bedspring, he said. Dahm has been specializing in thun- derstorm work and has invented an ap- paratus, he stated, which will overcome etheric waves projected by thundéder- storms. This would overcome the great - est handicap of the wireless service - thunder and lightning. Suburbanites Want Service. The wireless time service was suggeast- ed to Johns, he told a Post-Dispatch re- porter, by many requests for fire alarm signals in St. Louis County, which would be too expensive to install with wire connections. Many business men, in- surance agents and others living in the suburbs, desire fire bells in their resi- dences, he said, to acquaint them with fires in the vicinities in which they are interested. Johns took up the matter with Dahm and officials of St. Louis University. The result was the beginning of the in- stallation of a station from which the alarms, cheaply installed, might be op- erated by wireless. DOZING MAN GETS THE WRONG GR:P Rushes Toward Train, but the Satchel Owner Overhauls Him and He Explains. Warren H. Stuff of Waterloo, Io., with $100 and a draft for $190 in his pocket, arrived in Union Station soon after mid- night Wednesday on hir way to Charles- ton, Mo., to buy a carload of watermel- ons. Being tired and a stranger in Bt. louis; he did not go to a hotel, but slept on a seat in the waiting room, ; H. L. Dare of Cleveland, O., manufac- turer of pool tables, also was saving seat. A train caller passed through the station at 7 a. m. shouting ‘“‘all aboard for St. Charles.” Stuff, still dozing, grabbed the first grip in reach and started for the mid- way. “How dare you,”’ shouted Dare, being aroused from his sleep by his grip being pulled from between his feet. Stuff was heading for the, midway gate, heedliess of Dare’s cries, when Dare ran up behind him and shook him violently. “Where are you going with my grip?” Dare demanded. Stuff rubbed his eyes and appeared to be dazed. “Well, I'll be hornswaggled,”’ he said, ‘I've just woke up.” To policemen Stuff identified himself, produced his checks for his own grip and his money. Dare was satisfied, as could be seen when he invited Stuff to have a drink. BODY OF MOTHER TAKEN ACROSS OCEAN 3 TIMES Dying Request and High Price of Funerals in Breslau Cause Complications. NEW YORK, July 2.—Mrs. Anna Reinhagen of Newark, N. J., sailed on the Kaiser Wilhelm II for Bremen, tak- ing the body of he? mother across the ocean for the third time in four weeks. Mrs. Reinhagen’s mother died in New- ark a few weeks ago, with the request to be buriéd in her native city of Bres- lau. The daughter bought a first-cabin passage for herself, and, accompanied by a collie and parrot, sailed with her mother’s body for Bremen. At Breslau Mrs. Neinhagen found the cost of a funeral almost prohibitive. She bought first-class passage for home on the Kaiser Wilhelm II., arriving here with the body July 6. On the way to America Mrs. Rein- hagen decided to comply with her moth- er’s dying wish. When her sister, Mrs. Mar Perlmutter, and the undertaker from Newark, met her at the steamer in Hoboken, they pleaded in vain with her to allow the body to buried in New- ark. NEGRO STEALS LIFE-LIKE PICTURE OF CHICKENS Matt Reynolds Couldn't Resist the Temptation of Six Painted Fowls. St. Louis’ Mona Lisa mystery was covered Mrs. Mary Kelly's oil painting of six white chickens and got a con- fession from the thief. The picture was taken by Matt Rey- nolds, a negro, 81 years old, of 28986 $200,000. Mrs. Connor alleged that addiction to strong drink had caused Mrs. Miller to be incapable of managing her affairs. DAUGHTER DROPS | SHIT FOR GUARDIAN FOR MRS. MILLER Case Based on Mother’s Alleged Addiction to Drink Is Dismissed. A legal action- which had been fol- lowed by many developments was ter- minated in the Probate Court Wednesday when Mrs. Marie’ Connor of Boston withdrew her suit to have a guardian appointed for her mother, Mrs. Georgi- ana Miller of 6436 Maple avenue. Mrs. Miller is the widow of a railroad man who left her a fortune valued at In her suit, filed last April, After the daughter’s suit had been filed, Mrs. Miller gave out an interview in which she said she believed that her friendship for W. W. Gardiner, a St. Louis dentist, was the real reason for the attempt to prevent her from having further control of her property. Gardiner’s wife, Mrs. Olive Wilcox Gardiner, was then suing for a divorce. While that suit was pending, Mrs. Gardiner filed a suit against Mrs. Mil- ler for $100,000, alleging that Mrs. Miller had alienated the affections of Gardi- ner. This case is still pending. Mrs. Gardiner on June 16 last withdrew her divorce suit. Gardiner told reporters that it did not mean a reconciliation. A warrant charging Gardiner with assault was issued July 12 on com- plaint of Mrs. Minnie Laux of 6149 Delmar boulevard, at whose home Mrs. Gardiner was then staying. Mrs. Laux alleged that on July 4 Gardiner struck and kicked her in front of the Page Boulevard Police Station. Gardiner, according to Mrs. Laux, jumped out of a buggy in which he had been riding with Mrs. Miller and attacked her. He denied that he beat or kicked Mrs. Laux, and said he merely told her she should stop tel- ephoning Mrs. Miller. The case against him is still pending. unpleasant messages to In withdrawing Mrs. Connor’s suit Wednesday her attorney, John S. Leahy, told the Court that there had been a great change in the conditions which led to the filing of the suit and that hi: client did not care to carry it further. ST. LOUIS PAGEANT PLANNED FOR FALL MAY BE POSTPONED Spectacle Has Grown Too Large to Be Easily Handled With Fall Festivities. OPEN-AIR PLAY PLANNED Spring of 1914 Actual 150th An- niversary of the Founding of the City. The St. Louis pageant, planned by Mayor Kiel as a part of this year’s fall affair that it probably will be decided not to hold it the coming fall. The coming autumn, it is true, will be the one hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the departure of Pierre Laguest La- clede from New Orleans on his expedi- tion up the Mississippi. But next spring will be the one hundred and fiftieth an- niversary, the sesqui-centennial—might as well learn that word now—of the actual founding of St. Louis. So it will be an even more appropriate time to celebrate than in the tall of 1913. Fortunately, the city is not bound to any fixed date. Pierre Laclede did not conduct his movements on railroad time schedules, and historians are delightful-| ly indefinite as to the day when he first steered his trading cratt petween the free bridge piers, tied up at the foot of Olive street and arked what that big new white building was. It was some time in the spring of 1764, book-writers say, and the pageant planners are per- fectly willing to let it go at that. Celebrated in 1839. In 1839 the people of St. Louis celebrat- ed the seventy-fifth anniversary of Le- clede’s arrival. A printed program of the celebration has come into the hands of the Pageant Committee and it shows that a parade of the Fire Department was a principal feature. With the aid of the veteran volunteer firemen, thig pa- rade probably will be reproduced as part of the pageant. The question of date rests with the Executive Committee, which has re- ferred it to an Advisory Committee. John H. Gundlach is chairman of the Executive Committee and Luther Ely Smith secretary. Charles A. Stix is chairman of the the task of raising the sum, roughly estimated at $50,000, which will be re- quired for the big show. W. W. La- Beaume is chairman of the Production Committee, which will devise and stage the performance. Otto F. Karbe is chairman of the Organizations Commit- tee, to enlist the support of civic bodies. | Luther Ely Smith on Publicity. George J. Tansey is chairman of the’ Transportation Committee, and Luther Ely Smith probably will be secretary of the Publicity Committee. A. E. Bost- wick is chairman of the Book Commit- tee, which will select historical scenes and incidents to be illustrated. Other members of the Executive Com- mittee who will be assigned to various subcommittee tasks are Lambert &E. Walther, F. H. Smith, George W. Sim- mons, J. L. Hornsby, H. W. Barth, vice- chairman; Dwight F. Davis, Mrs. Philip N. Moore, Mrs. Sarah Spraggon and Miss Charlotte Rumbold. It has been proposed to engage Percy Mackaye, playwright and/pageant mas- ter, to supervise the St. Louis produc- tion. The present plan is to énact, on the slope of Art Hill, in Forest Park, four, five or six scenes from the history of St. Louis. The scenes will not be tableau, but will be acted out in pantomime, to tne accompaniment of music. Customs and Costumes. To connect the various scenes histor- ically, processions showing the costumes and customs of various periods of St. Louis life will be given between scends. In these processions, 800 to 1000 horsemen and horsewomen will appear. Some wil] ride bareback, some on Percherons (brewery horses), and some on ordinary steeds in the usual way. In the lagoons, early settlers’ canoes will scrape against the Indians’ birchbark craft.’ It will take a field glass to see the show satis- factorily. ee BAND CONCERTS TONIGHT O’Fallon Park, Fischer’s Band.

Testimony Estimates Annual To- tal of $1,000,000 in Tips to St. Louis Waiters. The inside story of ‘come-backs,” which has especial interest for those with appetites for club sandwiches, was told to the Counc!!! Committee on Legis- lation Tuesday afternoon by waiters, formerly employed in the largest St Louis hotels, who urged the passage of the Arendes anti-tipping bill. “‘Come-backs,’’ the waiters told the Councilmen, are articles of food which are left on one customer's plate, and which are taken back to the kitchen, fixed over and served in new forms to other guests. Hash, club sandwiches and chicken broth are the commonest products of the ‘came-backs,” H. 5S. } Phillips told the committee. Phillips said he was employed at the Jefferson Hotel for eight years before the lockout of white waiters a month ago. Others Corroborate Story. H. C. Satterlite and T. I. Clark also said “come-backs’’ were used at the Jefferson, Planters, Maryiand and Amer- ican hotels. ‘‘We were under strict orders,” said Phillips, ‘“‘not to throw away any food that could be used again. The ‘come- backs’ are heaviest at night, when peo- ple who are not very hungry order a chicken, a duck or a steak and eat only a part of it. Chicken ‘come-backs’ go futo club sandwiches or chicken broth. Left-over steak is used for stews, soups and hash. Vegetable ‘come-backs’ are put into the icebox and served again next day.” Club sandwiches, at the larger hotels, are priced at 30 to § cents, not inclhuad- ing the waiter’'s tip. In urging the Council to pass the Arendes bill, which provides a fine of $10 to $8 for tipping a Waiter “one-half thet zt fine to go to the informant), the waiters estimated the total amount paid annu- ally in table tips in St. Louis as $1,000,- Average $800 a Year. Testimony showed there are 1000 union waiters here and each of them receives an average of $800 a year in tips. The ag- gregate tips of nonunion waiters will run $200,000 a year. The average salary of a waiter is $30 a month, out of which the “‘bus’’ boy, or walter’s assistant, is paid from 40 to 50 cents a day and the head waiter $2 a month. The workday is from 12 and 15 hours. “My salary,’ he said, ‘‘was $30 a month, but that was used up for neces- sary expenses about the hotels. The item of breakage is very important on the debit side of a waiter’s ledger. Some- times we broke one, occasionally two or three dishes a week. The lowest pricid dish was about 2 cents and now and then a $2 one was dropped. Has to Tip the Chef. “Besides this we were compelled to furnish our own uniforms and keep them in repair. I paid by busboy 60 cents a day anf the head waiter $2 a month. When I wanted to get something for myself in the kitchen I gave a dime to the chef. There was a split several ways on our wages and the end of the month a waiter who was bright and capable and had many friends seldom had more than » vig for his own household ex- penses.” Satterlite, who said he had worked at the Jefferson, Planters and American previous to the strike, told of the poor food served to the waiters by the ho- tels. “Stale bread,” he said, “which had been served before, bits of steak left over and stews made from scraps of meats, mussed over by diners, were served to us. Unless we tipped the cooks we got nothing better than taint- ed meat.” Clark, former employe of the Jeffer- gon, said often he had to work from 18 to 2 hours and received no pay for overtime. “The most we ever got was $1 a day, and for a living wage we had to de- pend on tips. It is not the waiters’ fault but the fault of thé people who run these places. If the tipping system could be abolished it would be a blessing for the walter. Arendes Decries Practice, CounciIman Arendes, who introduced the bill, is chairman of the House Com- mittee at the Liederkranz Club. “We pay our waiters about $2.50 a day,” he said, ‘and yet they are spoiled py members giving tips to them. The practice is abominable. I sincerely hope that if the pending ordinance becomes a law the prosecuting authorities will enforce it to the letter.” Chairman Fletcher of the Committee on Legislation probably will call another meeting of the committee to hear the managers’ side of the story, particularly with respect to the alleged service of second-grade and left-over foods. — Cardinal Gibbens Is 78.

Bank Stockholder Opposes| $50. 000 Boss to Hdwards Complaint Made. to Comptroller plains Against Directors of Bank of Commerce Creat- ing $100,000 Pension Fund. . &X protest against the action of the directors of the National Bank of Com- | merce in giving to Benjamin F. Ed- wards a $60,000 bonus when he retired from the presidency of the bank aah to the ediipehotiey ‘or’ the Currency at Washington by John P. Herrmann, a stockholder. Herrmann is a St.’ Louis real estate dealer. A . Post-Dispatch reporter learned of his protest from one of the bank’s directors, whom Herrmann had notified of his action, This director said it was his understanding that .Herr- mann had notified the other directors to the same effect. Herrmann contends that, under the national banking laws, the directors have no power to pay out the bank’s funds for services not actually per- formed, and hence, that bonuses and pensions are unauthorized and illegal uses of the stockholders’ money. Herrmann Silent on Action. When Herrmann was seen by a re- porter Wednesday, he declined to speak for publication of his protest to the Comptroller. He said he was co-operat- ing with the officers of the bank to make the administration of the new president, Tom Randolph, successful. President Randolph said he knew the legality of the bank’s pension fund wes under investigation by the Comptroller, but would not admit that he had heard anything similar as to the Edwards gift. When Edwards retired three months azo, the directors voted to pay him $50,- 000, of which $17,000 was the salary 2% would have earned as president had he served to the end of the year for which he had been elected. The balancu, $33,000, was paid as an inducement for Edwards not to re-enter the banking business in St. Louis. * Withdrawal a Compromise. In voting the $50,000 to Edwards, the directors acted on the recommendation of a committee of five, appointed early in the spring to devise a plan for the reorganization of the bank. A group of stockholders had opposed the con- tinuance of Edwards as president. His withdrawal was the result of a com- promise. Four directors of the bank are credited with having voted against the Edwards They were: L. Ray Carter, Edward A. Faust, Sam M. Kénnard and W. 8. Thompson. The directors who are credited wit): having voted for the resolution appro- priating $50,000 for Edwards were: W. K. Bixby, E. T. Campbell, James Campbell, . George O. Carpenter, Samuel C. Davis, Edward F. Goltra, John A. Holmes, H. P. Knapp, F. August Luyties, Thomas H. McKittrick, Eltfas Michael, Fred C. Orthwein, Clay Arthur Pierce, Tom Ran- dolph, Charles Rebstock, E. C. Simmons, W. D. Simmons and Harry R. Wallace. The minutes credit James W. Bell also with having voted for the resolution, but it is understood that he assserts he was not present at the meeting. Pension Fund $100,000, The bank's $100,000 pension fund, which was to have been apportioned among the old and faithful employes of the in- stitution, has been built up out of the earnings during the last ll years. The directors, in creating the fund, provided that after 6 per cent had been set aside on the capital stock, surplus and undivided profits, a percentage of the excess earnings should go to the pension fund. Since the Herrmann protest became known to the directors, the latter have eppentres the SAlk's Ais S006 with S..

EDWARDS Continued From Page One. any ruling made by the Comptroller of the Currency. It could not be learned that any action had been taken by the directors on the protest against the Edwards bonus. When Edwaris was seen by a Post- Dispatch reporter in the office of A. G. Edwards & Son Brokerage Co., with ref- erence to the Herrmann protest, he said: “I know nothing about it. I will not discuss it.’’ There has been some individual] dis- cussion, among the directors, as to what would happen if the Comptroller should order the Edwards $50,000 bonus re- turned to the bank’s funds. Under the circumstances, it is not believed thgt Edwards would be willing to return the money, and the question is thus raised whether the directors will be liable for it. If they should be held so Hable, the further question whether those who voted against the appropriation are lia- ble equally with those who voted for it, is also of interest. NEGRO STABS WHITE MAN WITHOUT PROVOCATION Ironworker Thinks Negro Be- lieved Him Street Car Man and Sought to Avenge Shooting. Oliver Barton, an ironworker, 0 years old, of 3231A Laclede avenue, is in a critical condition at the city hospital Wednesday from a stab wound in the right chest inflicted by a negro Tuesday night while he was standing at Compton and Laclede avenues. The negro es- caped. Barton told the police he never had seen the negro before and had not apoken to him before he was wounded. He said the negro left a crowd of blacks, walked across the street and stabbed him without warning. He cannot account for the stabbing unless the negro mistook him for a street car man and stabbed him in re- taliation for the shooting of a negro near the car sheds Tuesday by James S. Cude,.a conductor of the Laclede line. Superfluous Hair Truths Stop eens eaten oe fe Saaltiewed the most rong on Proof when makers questionable gern ee make aiathas claims.

St. Louis have not yet been able to find out definitely the effect of the 2-cent rate law in the matter of passenger traf- fic. Officials of various roads declared creased, and that thus far there had been no noticeable change in the number of passengers carried. The law went into effect on July 1 on the Wabash and the Chicago & Alton railroads, and on July 4 on all other roads in Missouri, except the Frisco, fare schedule until July 15. Low Rate No Stimulus, He Says. J. G. Hollenbeck, general passenger agent of the Missouri Pacific Railroad, said the 2-cent rate had not stimulated business. He said that reports from his agents in various parts of the State indicated there had been a decrease in the volume of bustness done this month, as compared with July of last year. Hollenbeck said the incomplete re- turns of this month, together with the decrease in business done while the Same law was in effect several years age, indicated to him that there would be a general falling off in passenger receipts of more than $1,500,000 annu- ally. Frisco Reports Increase. Alex Hilton, general passenger agent of the Frisco, said that for the first two or three days after the Frisco put Mthe reduced rates into effect there was a decided increase in passenger traffic. This was because the new law had been advertised widely and many . people postponed trips until it was effective. ~ Short traffic in Missouri has increased about 7 per cent since July 15, over the same period of last year, Hilton said. He declared, however, that the difference between a 2-cent and a 3-cen{ fare decreased the aggregate earnings about 23 per cent, as there had been no impression on long-distance. travel. Employes in the office of the: Gen- eral Passenger Agent of the Burlington said they had kept a close watch on the effect of the 2-cent rate, and that it had made no difference in the num- ber of tickets so]d in St. Louis. J. D. MeNam@ra, General Passenger Agent of the Wabash, declared that the 2-cent rate did not create travel. He said the Wabash had sold practically the same number of tickets this month that was sold during the first 22 days of July last year. With the exception of July 4, no ex- tra coaches have been needed by any of the four railroads in order to handle passenger traffic, it was said. Frauenthal Tells of Increase. B. W. Frauventhal, genéral ticket ticket agent at Union Station, said the sale of tickets so far this month amounted to approximately $5000 more a day than what was sold during the same period of last year. About 62 per cent of the tickets sold in St. Louts are bought at Union Station, he said. The increased sales, he said, have been dis- tributed among 20 railroads. $100,000 for Old Maids’ Home.

HELE T CONGRESS Muthall Korice St Statement That Indianan Was Retained When Member. WATSON DEPENDED ON ~=>tters Showing His Work for Tariff Commission Make Pro- found Impression. By Associated Press. WASHINGTON, July 23.—With three- fifths of the Mulhall letters in the rec- ord, the Senate Lobby Committee today hurried along in an effort to finish the Treading by tomorrow. The committee decided to expedite things as much as possible by putting ‘BCcores of letters into the record without | specific identification. In answer to a. blanket question by Senator Reed, Mul-— ; hall swore to the authenticity of the whole National Association of Manufac- | turers’ correspondence turned over to the committee. “MacVeagh a Mugwump.” Former Secretary MacVeagh was dubbed a mugwump in a letter from former Representative Watson to Mul- hall Sept. 18, 1909. Watson, evidently _tving. to land Secretary Schwedtman of the Manufacturers on the Tariff Board, wrote that President Taft was appointing men only recommended by MacVeagh. “If he were a Republican we might reach him,’’ wrdte Watson of Mac- Veagh, “but he is a mugwump and I am not hopeful of final success, for I will swear I never on earth knew what to do with @ mugwump inasmuch as lI have no right to kill him.” ‘Mulhall, writing to General Manager Bird of the Manufacturers, advised him to be “in good fighting shape on Sept. 12, to visit the White House at Bev- erly with me.”’ Mulhall paused long enough in his task of identifying letters, reports and telegrams relating wo his work as lébbyist, political fixer and strike breaker to tell the committee yesterday that he had unintentionally reflected on games Ely Watson in one portion of his testimony. Mulhall had testified he had ad- ‘vanced $500 to pay Watson ‘for serv- ices to the National Association of Manufacturers in connection with the tariff commission in 1909. A confu- sion of dates led the Colonel to say the money was paid wnen Watson was still in Congress. Yesterday he corrected his statement and said it Was a month after Congress had ad- journed. . “The correspondence traversed. by Senator Reed and the Colonel for five hours showed that Watson was active uring the session, of which he was @ member. In 100 reports and letters passing between officials of the N. A. M. and Watson and Mulhall, Watson's mame occurred 97 times. That he was the one man at the ®apital on whom the officials of the N. A. M. deperded for information regarding the plans of not only President Roosevelt but Mr. Taft, his wBuccessor, and the Republican lead- ers in both Houses of Congress was revealed clearly. Watson wa* made to appear by the correspondence as the leader in all the undertakings of the N. A. M. in bring- ing abeut the tariff commission which, Col. Mulhall testified, was to head off any genuine revision of the tariff by fhe Republican party. —— ee SEE meen Y Gee ae Man) Facsimile Letters, Mailing Lists, eto, ORPHAN ASYLUM HAS _ FIFTH TYPHOID DEATH (wenty-Six Children Under Treatment, but Check of Dis- ease Is Believed to Be Certain.

Mrs. Harry A. Powell, carrying her big baby boy, a year old, called at Po- lice Headquarters Wednesday morning to ask that she be permitted to travel to Pine Bluff, Ark., with her husband, who will be taken there to answer a charge of forgery. Her father, A. V. Verdue, a wealthy planter of Star City, Ark., is his accuser. Sheriff Stewart (of Pine Bluff is on theway here to take him. | | “1'11 stick by you forever, Harry,” the young woman assured the prisoner. She said her father had sent her trans- portation to Star City, but she wished to go to Pine Bluff with her husband and remain there until the case against him is disposed of. If she goes home, she fears her father will not let her go to Pine Bluff. - She told a Post-Dispatch reporter earlier in the day at ner boarding place, °651 Washington avenue, that Powell's story of having obtained $500 by forgery, ‘for the purpose of giving her a good time and buying clothes for her and the baby, was true. She had not known, she said, how he got the money, but she did know he spent most of it on her, and very little on himself. She said, as he had done, that although her father owned a 7W- acre plantation and had a big bank ac- count, she never before had had any of the pleasures of life which money can buy. She said she would tell her fa- ther that she had had the benefit of the money, and would urge him, for this reason, not to prosecute Powell. A few weeks ago Powell found on the floor of Verdue’s office a $500 certificate of deposit of the First National Bank of Pine Bluff, Ark. He told his wife he had “made a killing” at craps, and then went to Pine Bluff, where he signed the name of his father-in-law to the certifieate and cashed it. ‘“‘Here’s where Hattie gets one good time,’’ he says he remarked to himself. He brought his wife and year-old baby to St. Louis and spent the money for dresses, jewelry and _ entertainments. When the money was nearly gone, the wife wrote to her father for transpor- tation home. The reply came through the Pine Bluff Sheriff, in the form of a request for Powell’s arrest. He was tak- en at his boarding place, in the pres- ence of his wife ane baby, Tuesday aft- ernoon. Wilson Considers Letting Arms Be Sent to Mexico Continued From Page One. States Government for an unequivocal declaration of its position in the ques- tion of intervention in Mexico. The statement was drawn up by Dr John Wesley Hill, president of the fo- rum, and Dr. Henry Allen Tupper, its special peace commissioner, who, in the last year, has made three trips to Mex- ico to study conditions. ‘While the International Peace Fo- rum,’ says the statement, “stands un- reservedly on the platform of peace, nevertheless it is not unmindful of the fact that the resources of peace may be exhausted, making drastic measures necessary.” The forum suggests that the United States insist that the present disturb- ance in. Mexico cease within thirty days and offer its services to help the Mex- ican Government restore peace in this period. If, after thirty days, conditions remain unimproved, the forum recom- mends the appointment of a commission ‘which shall in a diplomatic, but posi- tive manner, approach the whole ques- tion with an insistence that the lives and property of Ameficans and all for- eigners should be protected and a stable government should be established.’’ for Captive’s Bible Used Cigarette Papers.

In these instruments metal tubing has been used = throughout, and, as noted in the illustration, they are SS made with double sliding panel cpening in front. Ta, These Krell Royal Player-Pianos can be played manually with the hands as well as used as a player-piano. And one of the most important features in con- necticn with these Royal Player-Pianos is the fact that we believe them to be the most lasting instruments of their kind on the market. You may buy one of them now, and if ordinary care is used, the instru- ment can be enjoyed for a generation. | * The sale begins tomorrow morning promptly at 8 o’clock, and. will continue only until the 100 instruments are sold—the. quan- tity, which is allotted to us and which we were especially commis- sioned to sell. The price is extraordinarily low—$385., (Fourth Floor.) The Royal Player-Piano in this sale will be priced most moderately—indeed, extremely low for an instru. ment of so many sterling qualities. Notwithstanding the low price, these instruments embody all the essential points found in similar player- pianos which exclusive piano stores around town are gelling at $500, and, yes, $600! ‘About Terms— We will surprise you at the easy manner in which one of these instruments may be purchased. | Any instrument in this Piano Store can be secured by the payment of a small sum down and less each month, For this special sale of Royal Player- Pianos at $385, we are making even more xudvantageous terms than usual. Two little girls, Mildred Jakel of 3508 Hartford street and Dorothy Logue of 3622A Hartford, collected $14 for the Pure Milk Fund to save the babies. They are justly proud of their achievement, and are now duly enrolled as members of the Post-Dispatch Pure Milk and Free Ice Fund League and a league member- ship card has been mailed to each. Five helpful children, directed by Mrs. George L. Green of 5055 Cabanne avenue, gave a fair on the lawn of the Green residence and earned $10.40 with which to save the tenement tots. Those taking part were Margaret, Louise and George Green Jr. of 5055 Cabanne; Lucille Steiner, 6051 Cabanne, and Clara Tomkins, 6050 Cabanne. They brought the money down to the Post-Dispatch with great enthusiasm and promptly were enrollea as mem- bers of the League, little George Green Jr, being among the youngest of that splendid organization's big membership. An interesting show was given, arfd refreshments sold, by three bright girls at 1988 Burd avenue, realizing a total of $3.18 for the fund that saves the tene- : ' ment babies from death due to impure a = Ss milk during the hot summer time. Those taking part were Clara Seidel of 1938A Burd avenue; Grace Levin, 1942 Burd, and Adeline Franzel, 1938 Burd. They presented four little plays en- titled, respectively, “The Unhappy Life,” “The Bluff Boarding House,” “Aunt Mabel” and “Three Fighting Children,” and also were heard in a number of pretty songs and recitals, highly distinguishing themselves. Two little girls, Dolores Newell, aged 10, of 2208 Missouri avenue, and Hallie Marten of Columbia, Mo., the latter vis- iting her cousin, Mrs, Otto E. Kuster of 2214 Missouri avenue, collected pen- nies from their friends and neighbors to help save the tenement babies. They asked for contributions of 1 penny from each member of a family, and, in this novel manner, collected a total of $3.48 They wish to thank all who contribute4 to the good cause. ‘Two kind-hearted boys, Ernest and Richard Elliman of 6233 Waterman ave- nue, conducted a lemonade stand for two days and earned $2.50, which they ‘gent to the Pure Milk Fund “with their good wishes.”’ This evening, at the residence of Wil- liam Block, 1233 Walton avenue, a num- ber of children will give a lawn car- nival for the benefit of the Pure Milk Fund to help save the tenement babies. They will serve refreshments donated by neighborhood merchants, and hope to realize a handsome sum for the good cause. The advance sale of tickets at 5 cents each had reached a total of $87.40 at last reports, and al! signs point to, a big success. Those who will take part in the car- nival are: Lillian Fremder, 12 years old, of 474 Vernon avenue; Beatrice Frem- der, 10 years old; Estelle Block, 12 years old, of 1238 Walton; Béll Block, 11 years old; Claudine Block, 9 years old; Fan- ple Gollub, 14, of 1241 Walton: Miriam Gollub, 11; Katharyne Litman, 12, of 1229 Walton; Bertha Roud, 9, of 122A Walton; Victor Fierstein, 12, of 13344 Walton, and Robert Verschlieser, 12, of 1336 Walton. On Saturday afternoon, Aug. 2, at the Shenandoah Theater, 2318 South Grand avenue, a dramatic version of ‘Hangel and Gretel,” telling the same picturesque story as is told in Humperdinck’s ex- quisite fairy opera of the same title, $ will be presented by a juvenile company for the benefit of the Pure Milk Fund. The Shenandoah Theater is kindly do- nated for the occasion by Manager Fiynn, and lantern slides advertising the performance will be exhibited at both the Shenandoah and Juniata The- ;aters this week and next. | The helpful cltildren are happy in . their work. “The quality of mercy is included a Scarf, a Portfolio for sheet and 24. rolls of Music for | — the player-attachment.

That the temporary closing of the lo- cal boxing clubs, due to hot weather, was not the real reason for the hurried departure of Leo Kelly, the Compton Hill lightweight boxer, for Los Angeles, a day of two after Harry Trendal), Kelly’s rival, left for the same city, is the statement of friends of the red- haired lad from the reservoir region. These declare that Kelly is chasing Trendall in the hope of getting on with the “pride of the patch” in a 2%-round fight, in which he feels confident he can pit away Ris opponent.” Trendall has had the better of several short engage- ments with Kelly in the past, although one bout was called a draw. Trendall was lured West by Promoter Tom McCarey, who virtually promised the local fighter a good bout. He was wanted for a mill with Leach Cross, but could not make connections in time. Kelly had no sooner heard of Tren- dall’s departure than he packed his grip and three or four days later entrained for Los Angeles. Neither lad should have difficulty in getting bouts on the coast, although a match between this pair would be of du- bious interest to Los Angeles.

NEW YORK, July 23.—A cable mes- sage received in this city early today announced the death ot Anthony N. Brady, noted capitalist and Brooklyn Rapid Transit director, at the Carlton Hotel, London, a few houra before. Death resulted from angina pec- toris. The report was a shock to financier friends here, for Brady had sailed from New York only a week ago, apparently in good health He was much broken in spirit, however, having grieved for several months over the death of a daughter and three other relatives killed in the wreck on the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad at Westport, Conn., in Oc- tober, 1912. Remarkable Career. Brady’s career of 72 years was inter- esting. He was born in Lille, France, and came to this country with his par- ents when a child of less than five years. At 15 he was obliged to quit school and earn his own way in the world. | He started as cashier in Delavan Ho- tel barber shop, in Albany, sometimes tending bar, and ended his career a rec- ognized power in the world of finance. His first large accumulation of money was gained through a chain of tea stores which he established soon after reaching his majority. From tea he turned to contracting and became prominent in Democratic . poli- tics. He became interested in gas and, with others, purchased gas plants at Troy, Albany and Chicago. He took up extensive holdings also in various New York city corporations. In Wall street he was known as a free lance and his methods won for him in some quarters the sobriquet of the ‘Wall Street Mole,’ because financiers were unable to say just what Brady was doing until they were confronted with results. Fortune Placed at $25,000,000. The extent of Brady’s fortune is un- known, but an estimate published today places it at $25,000,000 and “probably more.’’ He was a director tn nearly sixty cor- perations and controlled some of the largest public utilities in this city and State. He was particularly prominent in local transaction, light and power companies, being president of the New York Edison Co., chairman of the Rapid Transit Co., and a trustee of the Consolidated Gas Co. Surviving are his widow, Mary Marcia , Myers Brady, five children and 11 grand- children. ‘THOMAS L.

POLICE DECLINE TO PUT ON A SUNDAY DINE. ST. LOU Won’t Enforce. Law Because Dramshop Men Need St. Louis’ Weekly $35,000. Although the Retail Clerks’ Union of East St. Louis is advocating a strict Sunday lid for all retail stores, the sa- loon men there need not worry. Mayor Chamberlin, Chief of Police Payne and Harry B. Carson, president of the Po- lice Board, all said Wednesday they did not wish to close the saloons on Sunday and prevent them from reaping their $35,000-weekly crop from St. Louis. Board of Directors of the Brooklyn. The clerks recently placarded the city with notices calling attention to city and State laws which required all retail houses to suspend business for the first day of the week, saloons included. It was said the Merchants’ Assoication was in sympathy with the clerks, provided enforcement of the law should be uni- versal. Wen’t Enforce Saloon Law. ~~ Chief Payne declared the laws would not be enforced as to the saloons. Those in other business could close if they wished to, he told a Post-Dispatch ra- porter, but it was optional with them. “The matter of enforcing the State WEDNESDAY EVENING, JULY 23, 1913. several times,”” he said, “so far as our saloons are concerned. Gov Deneen twice stated it- was his opinion that the enforcement of the law should be Ieft to the will of the community. ‘Kast St. Louis believes it is botter b have the saloons open on Sunday, so long as St. Louisans come over here each week and spend between $35,000 and $50,- 000. The money thus poured in is the principa) source of revenue of these places and if we closed the saloons this revenue would be lost. “Our. people do not desire the Sun- day lid. If it were submitted to a vote, I believe 90 per cent of the people would cppose Sunday closing. I do not believe either that candy stores, confectioneries, cigar stands, etc., should be closed either. The Sunday crowd is essentially a holi- day crowd looking for places to spend its money, and these firms do their biggest business on Sunday.” Chamberlin Keeping Mayor Chamberlin said he believes the saloons of East St. Louls are now kept by law-abiding men, and that if a Sunday lid were imposed the liquor buaf- ness would get into the hands of law- less persons. He pointed to the St. Louls lid clubs as a horrible example. He said in his last campaign he prom- ised not to clamp down a lid so long as the saloons were orderly, and he was prepared to keep this promise. Carson says he doesn't think the ga- loons ought to be closed, because :t would result in innumerable unlicensed barrooms. surely it is much easier for the board. sr to select a place from the Post-Dis- patch W’ants than to spend several aft- ernoons traveling about town to find a room.

After drinking heavily for three days, Henry Strauss shot and killed himself, following an attempt to shoot his wife, Mary, at their home in the rear of 4084 North Twenty-fifth street, Tues- day night. Strauss worked irregularly at his trade as a car finisher and his wife went out as a laundress to aid in supporting him. He had not worked since Saturday and arrived home intoxicated in the evening. His wife returned from work a few iminutes later. Mrs, Strauss Wednesday said that she and her husband went into the house and that she tried to induce him to eat supper. Suddenly, she says, he ex- claimed: ““‘We won't eat together. We'll go away together.” At the same time he dreW a revolver from his pocket and leveled it at her. Mrs. Strauss grappled with him. Hv pulled the trigger and the bullet broke a window pane. The wife ran int» the yard and sought refuge at the home of ] vancea on Strauss, intending to knock the revolver from his hand, but before he could reach him Strauss put the muzzle of the weapon against his own head and fired a bullet into his right temple. Strauss fell dead in the yard while his wife looked from a window of the Weiss home. A fall about a year ago injured Strauss’ back. Since then, his wife said, he drank heavily at intervals. They had been married 18 years. If you have inviting rooms, tell ef their merits through Post-Dispatch Wants and you may be sure you wiil get the attention of the largest number of readers.

These/{ women argue that, if others can go in with skirts reaching only to their knees, they ought to be permitted to go in with dresses that reach ail the way to their ankles. What they don’t realize is the way their old summer ginghams cling to them in the water. Girls Easily Dealt With. “The girls With suits too light in color or th weight are more easily dealt with. When they are told: the ‘suits will not do, they apply for suits, or go home or to a store to buy something that will do.” There is no part of the pool set apart for women, but -Miss Rumbold says this does not mean that “pick-up” ac- quaintances can be made by men, after the manner of certain dance halls. ““‘We can’t prevent men from speaking to girls,” she said. ‘‘For all we know, they may be acquainted. But any girl who is, offended at being addressed by a stfanger has only to call one of the guards. They will escort the man ‘from | the pool—it has already been done aby.) eral times. Neo Ducking Is Allowed. “And no man, whether he knows a girl or not, is permitted to start any ducking or other horse-play. Several men have been ordered out for that sort of thing.’”’ ; When the new fence around the pool has been put up, those in charge hope that persons living in the Fairground neighborhood will provide their own sults, put them on at home, and go to and from the povl with raincoats over their bathing suits. They will then merely have to pass through the shower bath and the turn- stiles, and this will relieve the demand for dressing rooms. The fence will also make it necessary for everyone who goes in through the entrance turnstile to go out through the exit stile, thus automatically checking up the safety of bathers. !

Miss Adelaide Wehmeyer, 20 years old, after living more than 18 years with Mr. and Mrs. Julia Wehmeyer, 4321 North Eleventh street, as their foster daugn- ter, has departed, leaving notes in which she said she means to search for her mother. Wehmeyer reported to the police that since the young woman’s disappearance he has been unable to find $150 which he entrusted to her for safekeeping. The Wehmeyers took Adelaide from an .orphan asylum in Davenport, Io., when she was 18 months old. Mrs. Wehmeyer received a note from Adelaide, reading: ‘“‘Good-by forever. It is now Ill o’clock and I must catch a train at 12:4: I go to find my mother.”’ The young woman, who is described as a tall and striking blonde, had been employed as a model in a Washington avenue millinery house. i Lived With Wife Two Days.

Lawiessness Inexcusable in Both Cases. Te the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I read all your editorials with considerable care, and sometir:es with some edification. I have just read your brief editorial,, Anarchy and the Navy.” In it you write “Public opinion de- mands that the strong hand of authority deal in no uncertain terms with those who disgraced the navy and defied the laws at Seattle.” Now, my dear Mr. Editor, I can’t comprehend the force of your statement. The great mass of the patriotic American public sympathizes with this mad ott- burst of patriotic indignation. I do not see how aman with a spark of patriotism can find in his heart any other feeling than sympathy for those brave young men who “took the law in their own hands” and wrecked the headquarters of these traitors. A few months ago a woman was mobbed on Broadway, in front of the courthouse in this good city, and within a block ef your offices... these young fellows pelt a defenseless woman -with eggs and decayed fruits. She was preach- ing the tenets of the “Industrial Workers of the World,” and though this mob was within the shadows of your great building, you did not de- nounce it editorially or in any other way. seems to me that you go out of your way to as- sail men who wear the uniform of the country that you should at least respect if you cannot defend. A KENTUCKIAN. The Traffic Squad. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. This body of men is picked from the entire Police Department to protect pedestrians in the downtown district from being run down by reck- less auto drivers who have no regard for the rights of others; all due respect to those who Grive their cars as the law requires and at all times under control. It is a fact that when of- ficers for any reason absent themselves from their respective corners many automobile drivers wilfully break the traffic ordinance. There are streets in this city where night after night many drivers run their cars at the rate of 40 to 60 miles an hour. The very few accidents in the business @is- trict speaks well for the efficiency of the squad when we consider the many drivers running wild through the streets who imagine themselves ex- perts when they have acquired the skill] of start- ing and stopping a machine. Members of the Traffic Squad need no eulogy; they come nearer toeing the mark of duty than any other class of city employes. P. H. McFARLAND. Relieve the Poor ‘“Watchdogs.’’ fo the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Last night, the moon being full, and extremely brilliant, there was a terrible epidemic of bur- glaries on the street where I reside. I am sure or this because the “watchdogs” kept by my neigh- bors kept up an incessant barking, yelping and howling for at least two hours, during all of which time I lay awake, hoping against hope, that the police would come along and relieve the poor, persevering “watchdogs” who were barking their heads off in the vain hope of frightening the prowling burglars or arousing their owners. The heat was terrific, and I was suffering from nervous strain, but I could not help sympathizing with those poor four-footed “guardians of the peace,” who spared neither effort now larnyx in protecting their masters’ lives and property. Worn out at last, I fell asleep, and I am morally certain that the pack of “man’s best friends” kept up their warning cries till daybreak, I have noticed they always do this when the moon is full, which makes one wonder that burglars choose such a time for their greatest activity. Cannot we arouse our police to this fact, and get them to stir themselves, with the view of giving the overworked “watchdog” a well-earned rest? CITIZEN, The Sunday ‘‘Idd.’’ To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. After reading Frank Putnam's article in the Sunday Post-Dispatch today I am boiling with indignation. Why can’t those writers confine themselves to facts? Portland, Maine—it does not deserve the condemnation heaped upon it. Practically every building within the center of Portland, as well as throughout the other sec- tions, is occupied and clean, orderly, attractive scenes greet the eye. Compare this with the vice-infested portions of St. Louls. Empty houses by the thousand—poverty, loafing, every form of dissipation—and why? Lidlessness. The decent people move out. We have a large district in St. Louls given over to vice and booze. How much time do our peo- ple of decency or our guests in the city spend in that district during the six days and nights per week when there is no Hd? If they will not support idleness, immorality, booze six days in the week, why sheuld they do so on the seventh or after midnight? Now let’s be fair. We are a decent city. By an overwhelming majority we lead quiet, home lives, and are not ashamed of our German citi- sens or their beer gardens. We fee] they repre- sent decency. And the lid which prevents buying boose on Sunday isn't much of a iid, anyway, for anybody with the price can buy Sunday beer on Saturday and if Mr. Putnam pill go out after facts he will find miles of homes with nice little ice boxes filled with bottled beer for’ the Sun- day consumers and all round the town pienic Tought one day in the week to prevent men from themselves from their families by _— SS yf me & I saw ; It ‘ —_ks wat _ ast Sess Se -= =. + bh | ay ~« —o~ > -~—_ — THE MEXICAN CHAUTAUQUA—A HINT. ——_—_—_ JUST A MINUTE Written for the Post-Dispatch by Clark McAdams. pay And the wind goes softly 6 WHEN THE CORN IS IN THE TASSEL HEN the corn is in the tassel is a lovely season, too; You can see the plumes a-waving to the reaches of the sky. The air is fresh and fragrant, and the sky is soft and blue, And the prospect is alluring as the fields go marching by. There’s a flavor in the wind of the imminence of Fall, When all the tasseled harvest shall be gathered into shocks; When the fields shall turn to gold, and the whistling quail shall call In the glory of the morning from the shelter of the stalks. eed HEN the corn is in the tassel, it is easier to dream Of all the charms awaiting when the Summer shall have gone; It is easier for imagery to bridge the gulf between And wait the season’s coming while the days are getting on. There are Summer days ahead, but they don’t seem quite the same When the corn is in the tassel, and the sun begins to rise day a little later, with a softer, duller flame, wy 4 singing down the reaches of the skies. The United States Department of Agri- ‘culture, which is making up the regula- tions for the protection of migratory birds, is disturbed by the dual life of the bobolink. One of the most delightful and helpful of birds in the North, where ‘t enthuses poets and catches bugs, the bobolink in the South is the bane of the rice grower’s life. It reaches the Caro- linas and the Gulf States on its south- ward migration just when the rice is in the milk, and the damage it does is enormous. A better name for it would be the tariff bird, for, like the tariff, it ir good for one section of the country and bad for another. Lieut. Harold Chase Woodward of the New York National Guard, is thought to have restored the Fourth of July. He has invented an explosive which doesn’t go off unexpectedly. It is called trotol, and the United States Government, which fires a good deal of its ammuni- tion unexpectedly, is said to contem- plate using it exclusively.

She was a spinster herself, and she saved that amount by not having a husband. Peaches are plentiful, and it is said that they will be cheap. Evidently peaches cannot be kept in cold stordge. LOST ART OF BUNCO STEERING. From the New York Tribune. It is like a voice from the dim past, an item of mid-Victorian news, to read of “Grand Central Pete” and his demise. The “king of the bunco steerers,” he was called. And he seems te have been as famous in his day as P. T. Barnum or the Centennial. Why is he a forgotten name to the present age and why is the art of which he was so great an ornament all but ex- tinct? There are several reasons, we suppose. Probably the world has grown a little wiser, for one thing. What with universal newspapers, and snappy, ready-made suits for advanced dGress- ers, and theaters everywhere and movies for all, the latest ripples in metropoli- tan deviltry penetrate to the veriest crossroads in no time. Who ever sees a real, sure-enough farmer of the old school in New York today? Also, and more important, the trick- ster has moved on. Why mess around with a gold brick or such obsolete stuff when the noble printing press which prints for all can turn out a batch of stock certificates prettier, more inviting and far safer to sell? Yes, “Grand Central Pete’ is dead, and with him passes a forgotten art. But Wall- ingford lives, and with him a new and marvelous method of making the other fellow poor quickly. SUMMER IN TH® Crry.

According to Dr. C. Muthu of the Mendip Hills Sanatorium, Hindoo doc- tors understood the germ theory and inoculation 6000 to 8000 years ago. In an address delivered before the Royal ® Society of Medicine Dt. Muthu said that the Hindoo civilization was the most ancient in the world, and that their medicine was as old as their civilization. They excelled, he said, in materia medica and chemistry; they were the/,, first among the ancients to practice the dissection of the human body and to employ minerals and mercury internally. They understood the germ theory, the circulation of the blood and inoculation for smallpox. Their successful treat- ment of snake bites astonished Alexan- der the Great, and their surgery was bold and skillful, for not only did they set broken bones, but they trephined the skull, gave anesthetics in serious opera- tions, and even amputated Iimbs. After the death of Buddha, when surgery began to decline and medicine flourish more, medical houses and hos- pitals were established in India which were provided with medicines and in- struments and attended by physicians who relieved the sick and suffering, but long before Buddha there were medical schools and colleges. Arab medfcine, which was founded on Hindoo medicine, taught European physicians as late ag the seventeenth century, and Wéstern people owed a great deal to India in this direction. VOODOOISM IN CURA. From Betencourt (Cuba) Cable to the New York Sun. That little 4-year-old Onelio Gar- cia, who on June 20 disappeared while on his way home at the farm Sardi- nas, was murdered by negro voodoo- ists to obtain his blood for witchery practices, the same that happened with little Zolla at Guira de Melena, and with little Luisa at Alacranes, there is little doubt.

A horse that had seen better days, and many of them, stood near him, panting painfully with drooping head. South- Ward the prairie rolled away to the horizon. Northward the mountains climbed to the clouds. The cry of a distant coyote smote the ‘pilence. The shadow of a circling buz- zard swept about the tree. The man glanced upward at the sub- stance of the shadow, shrugged his shoulders, and said, ‘You are early, my friends. The feast is not yet prepared.”’ Then he fixed his gaze steadily upon tke distant mountains. Down the pass that cleft them asun- der six dark objects appeared in rapid, undulatory motion. The man under the .s tree dropped his head upon his breast and closed his eyes. When he looked up again six horse- men were approaching at a long gallop. They were dusty and rough looking. One of them carried a rope at his saddle bow. They slackened their pace and ad- vanced cautiously. The man under the tree hailed them from where he sat. “Looking for someone, gentlemen?’ . “We was,” replied the man with the rope. “We ain’t now.” _ The man under the tree stood up, was tall, straight and handsome. “Make it short,” he said. “With a good horse instead of that plug I might have been over the line. But last night was a dark one, and I was in a hurry.’ ‘You surely was, stranger,” said the man with the rope as he dropped the noose over the head of the hatless one. “’*Nother case of haste makes waste. -. Best hoss in th’ camp was in th’ next stall.”’ The six drew a short distance away and consulted in low tones. Then the .man who had carried the rope called out, “Stranger, you admit takin’ the hoss, don’t you?” ’ The hatless one smiled and nodded. . “There ain’t no use of a trial,” urged the man who had carried the rope to the other five. “I’m a law-abidin’ citi- gen, but when a man pleads guilty there ain't no use a wastin’ time a tryin’ him. “Stranger, the jedgment ob this Court is that you air guilty of hoss stealin’, the particular hoss bein’ Dick Atp's old black Bill-there.

Then there were seven free men under the tree, and the rope was coiled on the arm of the man who had brought a? “Take the hoss, stranger. He’s yourn. good, but he’ll take you to th’ wife an’ children.” But the hatless one shook his head. “Gentlemen, I'll be frank with you God knows I am too near the grave to dare to lie. I am not a criminal. “Two years ago I had a good business, a happy family, and a comfortable home. My partner ruined me. In one awful day I lost everything. Then I was offered a good position as manager of a Mex!i- can plantation. I accepted the offer thankfully and with my little family had almost reached our destination, when I hoped to recoup my fortune, when I learned that the company had failed and had made an assignment. *“‘We were homeless, among strangers. My wife, who had never known in un- gratified desire, was sinking under our adversities. I could find no employment. I gave them every dollar I had and left them in two little rooms, intending to work my way northward into God’s country, where I might find steady em- ployment. “I was a hundred miles north of here when that letter reached me. I was sick, had found no work, and had no money. In desperation I took a horse and rode him until he dropped. You who have wives and chfldren can under- stand. “I did not want to steal. But they are after, me for taking that horse. I threw them off the trail last night, just before I took this horse from, you. But they have struck it again by’ this time. They are well mounted. _I cannot escape un- less I catch the midnight train south at the station. “And even then—I have no money. You may’ as well proceed. If they catch me they will take me back. I prefer this/tree. It is—nearer home.”’ When six earnest men are of the same opinion a conclusion is soon reached. The man who had brought the rope an- nounced the result of the hasty consulta- tion. “Stranger—I can’t pronounce / your name, nohow—you’re agoin’ home, We ain’t no millionaires, but we’ve dug up enough coin here to see you through, an’ @ little to spare. Jump that roan, quick. Here’s your hat. Bob’s th’ treasurer of this syndicate, ’n’ he’s goin’ with you tc bring back the roan. “You kin make it if you hustle. That’s all right—we know what you want to say. We're rough, but we’re white. So long. Get a move on you now ef you'll taiss th’ train.” Twenty-four hours later Bob returned to the little mining town from the south, leading the,:roan and bearing a sealed message from the man who" had car- ried the rope. My Generous But Hasy Friends: It looked like a bold game, but there was everything to gain and nothing to . lose. Hanging is hanging, whether for horse stealing or for murder. I was really sorry for the children when I found the letter in his pocket, but I needed hi# clothes and horse, and he was stubborn. It is very bad form to travel in convict’s stripes. Kindly in- form the Sheriff when he reaches your town that at present my address is Cen- tral America. Most thankfully youra, At 6:30 that evening the Sherite of Maricopa County and two deputies in search of Richard Earl, alias “Slick Dick,” confidence man, escaped con- vict and later murderer, galloped into town from the north and had a very interesting interview with gix wrath- ful and crestfallen citizens. At. 6 o’clock they departed slowly over the same road they had come. None showed a disposition to talk. At the summit of the pass the Sher- iff halted his weary horse, turned in his saddle and gazed down upon the town long and thoughtfully.

Her great soulful eyes were her chief beauty and these she enhanced wonderfully by painting the brows and lashes with India ink steeped in rose water.

She al- ways removed every trace of makeup from her cheeks by rubbing them with cold cream made from mutton suet and then wiping them off with white wine or toilet vinegar.- And thus by using first a-cream and then an astringent she kept her olive skin smooth and fine grained and it never grew coarse, as such complexions are apt to. Just as Rachel had reached the height of her fame, another woman of very different character retired from the French stage with a large fortune. This was the famous Mile.

* torn Pleads for Attendants to Release ve! Him So He Can Get Back Into Game. — _ William L,, known for many years as Wee Willie, Sudhoff, of 4157 Glasgow avenue, formerly a star pitcher for the Bt Louis Browns, who is in the observa- tion ward at the city. hospital, violently Was somewhat quieter Wednes- day, but physicians believe his case is incurable. The doctors Tuesday were inclined to ’ believe his condition was due to an old of the head, which he might have when he was hit by a pitchea ball or in a train wreck. Such accidents happéned to Sudiioff in 1906 and 1904. _A more careful study of bis case, how- - ever, has led them to think his condi- tion is the result of an incurable malady of long standing. If he does not show early improvement he will be removed to the city infirmary. The diminutive ex-pfitcher is. living over his baseball days in his mania. All morning he pleaded with attendants to release him sad he could get back in the game. “One season I pitched r) games and won 80," he said. “I am still good. I can get a chance if only I can get out of here.” Budhoff is 38 years old. He became ¥iolent at his home Monday night and his wife called an ambulance. Two pa- trolmen found it difficult to overpower the demented man. Mrs. Sudhoff is a frequent visitor at the hospital and has tried to aid the Goctors in quieting her husband, but without much success. .- . ST.

The*® Dawsons separated June 18, 1912, after being married 17 years, and Daw- son went to Denver, where he engaged in business.

By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, July 23.—The Evening Post, in its copyrighted financial re- view today, says: “Buropean Stock Exchanges halted today, much’as our own did yester- day, and they gave no response. to the news that a peace conference had been agreed on by the Balkan States. “The truth probably is, that the quarrels of these bloodthirsty little powers have already ceased to affect the financial mind. After a period in which the acberoenageck oe and Servian campaigns were placed in the. cate- gory of Japan’s nchurian war, the world’s conception of the Balkan armieg and governments is ‘revert- ing rapidly to that set forth in An- thony Hope’s stories, and in the ‘Chocolate Soldier “London, however, again bought some 286,000 shares on arbitrage in this market—a su port which put u prices fractionally at the start, though it failed to sustain the up- ward movement. “Isolated declines occurred in stocks where. moderate seemeg to attract little support, This was particularly true of New Haven Shares and of those two unlucky products of old-fashioned Stock Ex«x- which had over- stayed their time—Mexican and Cal. ifornia petroleum. “Outside of these few points of special weakness the day's net tn gag were irregular and unimpor- ant. “It was remarked by Stock Ex- change people, however, that where- as a month or two ago the market would invariably grow lifeless after each upward reaction, the same thing happens now after each decline.” “Nothing of any very definite purport came to light in the news today. The Southwestern drouth did not appear to be broken, but the weather predictions the: section indicated rain, Grain markets hardly moved at all; cotton went lower. “The fortnightly ‘idle cars statement,’ which is not Se to be especially signifi- cant in ‘this’ between-seasons period, showed an increase of 5700 in the-side- Sy gy equipment. The present total 69,406 is the largest since the opening of June last year, but it exceeds by only -600 cars the total of a year ago week, “That statement was followed, it is well remembered, by. so rapid and ur- gent a requisition on railway facilities ue to the trade recovery and the heavy movement of grain, that within eight weeks there was an actual shortage in supply of freight cars. It will be ex- tremely interesting, therefore, to study forthcoming statements in this matter. “The Iron Age weekly review of the steel and iron market hardly suggested any material change in conditions, efther for better or worse. What it describes as an improved d d and sentiment in the trade during the week it attributes to the market’s vefinetion of the better feeling in financial circles. ——- = NEW YORK BOND SALES.

The buying was based on cash and export demands, which continue heavy. Corn futures took the opposite course and declined slightly, on low temper- atures over the growing belt, rains in Iowa and Nebraska and prospects for precipitation in Kansas.
