NEW YORK, July %.—Howard Elliot, president of the Northern Pacific, was elected this afternoon president and di- rector of the New York, New Haven & Hartford. His election takes effect Sept. 1, 1913. ; At a later date, when plans which directors of the New Haven and Elliott have agreed upon, are worked out, will become chairman of the company, and, as such, direct its affairs through a president, just as Judge Elbert N. Gary manages the Steel Corporation. Elliott was a railroad official in St. Louis 17 years, and his wife formerly was Miss Janet January, member of a well-known St. Louis society family. Two years and a half ago he refused the presidency of the Missoufi Pacific, although large financial inducements were offered. It was reported that a $100,000 salary was offered him, but he said it was not so much as that. ne IMULHALL STORY TO STAND WITHOUT CROSS-QUESTIONS Democratic Senators Decide to Let 5000 Letters Speak for Themselves.

Mulhall’s story of his lobbying activi- tice for the National Association of Manufacturers, as unfolded before the Senate Lobby Committee, is to be al- lowed to stand virtually without cross- questioning from Democratic members of the committee. Senators Nelson and Cummins, who, yesterday began a severe questioning of the witness on many of his statements, probably will continue to demand more detailed statements on his letters as they are introduced into the record, but the Democratic members, Senators Ov- erman, Reed and Walsh expect to let the Mulhall story stand principally on more letters.

Mrs. Gal- loway protested in court that it was not her horse. “I saw the horse in the field and led it out,“ she said, because I felt sorry for Mr. Frazer, and now he sues me.“ Mrs. Galloway declared her horse was not near Frazer’s cornfield the day the damage was done, but that it was being used by a neighbor in making a trip to Swansea. EX-PRESIDENT OF PERU AND SON IN PENITENTIARY LIMA, Peru, July 2%.—Augusto Legula, former President of Peru, and his son, were arrested this morning and sent to the penitentiary. Their arrest followed a riot last night during which six pcrsons were wounded subject only to the directors. As a con- dition of his accepting the place, he in- sisted that he be given a free hand in selecting his subordinates and heads of departments. This has been agreed to. Elliott also stipulated that a system best described as “intensive rallroading shall be established. There will be num- ¢rous vice-presidents, more perhaps than the New Haven now has, and the duties of each will be clearly defined. Heads for Departments.

' Elliott One of Three Eminent Louis Railroad Builders of Re- cent Times. Howard Elliott is one of three men who, in recent years, have laid the foundation in St. Louis for eminence as railroad executives. The other two are W. C. Brown, president of the New York Central, who was Elliott's asso- ciate in the management of the Bur- lington’s Missouri lines 20 years ago, and the late Charles M. Hays, head of the Grand Trunk system, who was lost with the Titanic. Eliiott, a native of New York, came West in 1881 after graduation from the Lawrence Scientific School of Harvard University, and entered the service of the Burlington as rodman at $2 a day. He rose to important offices in the K“ line, one division of the Burlington, with headquarters at Keokuk, until 1890, when he removed to St. Louis. In May, 1891, he was made general freight agent, with headquarters at oat. Louts, of the Burlington’s Missouri lines, more than 1000 miles of road iu all. In 1896 he became general manager of the same lines, with headquarters at St. Louis and St. Joseph. In 1900 he de- clined an offer of the general manager- ship of the Burlington’s main division, with headquarters at Chicago, because of his desire to remain in St. Louis. The next year he was elected vice- president of the Burlington. in charge of maintenance and «operation of all St. pondence, that members of the House were his close associates in political campaign work and in efforts to head off labor legislation. The Senate Com- mittee also has indicated that it will not permit a general cross-examination of Mulhall by attorneys or officers of the manufacturers and those officials will attempt to make Mulhall defend his statements before the House Commit- tee next week. Mulhall said today he went to Massa- chusetts in August, 1910, and wrote to General Manager Bird of the Manufac- turers of conferences Lodge and Charles E. Hatfield, man of the State Committee.” “Senator Lodge pays us all kinds of compliments for the work we are doing and I know we will have his aid en | actively during the next campaign,’ wrote Mulhall. In other letters tha month Mulhall wrote “through our efforts we havs- beaten the Hon. T. D. Nichols of the Tenth Pennsylvania and we also have beaten the notorious George A. Pearre of injunction fame, in the Sixth Mary- land.“ Aug. “‘chair- 30, Mulhall wrote to President [Taft asking for an interview for Bird dend himself. “It will be a great help to have a number of the leaders of the manufac- turing associations in touch with the leaders of our party throughout the country in the present crisis,“ the let- ter ran. Interview With Taft. Mulhall swore he received a reply from C. D. Norton, the President’s sec- retary, arranging the interview for Monday afternoon, Sept. 12, at Beverly. | Senator Nelson questioned Mulhall: closely about items in the expense ac- counts which frequently showed $80, amounts paid to two party workers“ for services in the Sixth New Jersey District. Mulhall swore he dealt with | a man named “Feeny” and that he paid | bim the money in cash, usually meet- ing him in a Philadelphia hotel. The items appeared almost every week. Oct. 5, 1910, Mulhall wrote to former Senator Foraker ebout his talk with President Taft, saying he had submitted names of men who would help in the campaign. He seemed to scrutinize the list very closely,“ Mulhall wrote, “and talked as if John H. Taylor of Hast Liverpool] and D. M. Hanna were not enthustastic | friends of his. “He was greatly pleased with the work I told him had been done in Massa- chusetts and other states, and advised me to inform our people to do every- thing we possibly could to keep in touch with leaders of the conxressional com- mittee, so that we might be able to help in close congressional districts.’’ St. with Senator g Nuss TWGDD OPROW... — , A | A WATERS: FOR ‘COME BACK’ Reveal More Culinary Sins, While Awaiting “Come Back“ Testimony of Hotel Men.

Municipal gambling houses, where country boys coming to St. Louis with bank rolls to have “their time“ could be “trimmed” in approved style, according to rules and regulations laid down by the Council and House of Delegates, was strongly urged as 3 novel provision of the proposed new St. Louis charter by John M. Gomes of 5948 Horton place, real estate dealer and former horse- sLoer, in an address to the Board of Freeholders Thursday night. The Freeholders, reclining in their easy swivel chairs, perked up and took im- mediate cognizance of this startling sug- gestion. Freeholder Rowe, constitutional stickler, became so absorbed in the sub- ject that he forgot to ask Gomes how such a provision could be inserted in the cnarter within constitutional limitations. “The pleasantest man in the world to associate with is the professional and successful gambler,“ said Gomes by way of introducing the subject. ‘I believe in encouraging sports. There will always be gambling, and the city might as well control it. “You see, the counfPy boy works on the farm all summer and saves a bank roll of $300 or #400.

The young man told his sister, Miss Mignon Morrow, 16 years old, and she took the news to her mother. The fa- ther had been out ot the city and was expected to return on a morning train, and the first understanding of the po- liceman’s words was that some accident had befallen the head of the family. The Morrow family removed to St. Louis a month ago from Whitehall, Ili, H. C. Morrow is president of the White- hall Sewer Pipe Co. and decided to leave that place only when his St: Louis interests nad come to outweigh those in his home town. Russell Morrow was a student last year in Culver Military Academy, at Culver, Ind.

A few days ago two of his military academy friends, Lawson Arnold and Byron Carpenter, came to St. Louis to visit him. Two girl friends were also visiting his sister, and the three youths and three girls were planning an out- ing tor Saturday afternoon. This was the subject of conversation as the young man left the breakfast table. The youth's body was removed to the morgue without deing taken to the Mor- row home. The brother said arrange- ments would be made for its removal to an undertaking parlor as soon as the Coroner’s approval could be obtained. Witnesses who were standing on the rear platform of the front car or sitting ir the front bay window of the trailer, said they did not see how the fatality could have been prevented by any act of the crew.

OTHERS TO BE BANISHED 2 Warden Hopes to Quell Mutiny dy Sending Second-Termers to Auburn Prison. a By Associated Press. >. OSSINING, N. T., July 25.—Sixty ~“~convicts, the dregs of New York City’s | -s. .eriminal class, were taken one by one '% from their cells in Sing Sing prison to- are day and placed aboard a train for the r State prison at Auburn. Recent riots in Sing Sing caused the Wurden to take no chances. Each con- ee vict was handcuffed heavily and shack- led and then chained to his place in the |e railroad car which had been brought 2 Ty’ 2 S 8 inside the prison enclosure. As 100 prison guards did this work in 2 the State armory, a company of naval militia waited for a call to protect the town in case the transfer of convicts resulted in a prison mutiny. There was little sleep in the prison last night. At intervals some of the prisoners would start to howl and bang on their cell doors. The din would con- tinue until the angry convicts had worn themselves out. When the first convicts were taken to the car more than 1000 prisoners rushed to their cell windows and cursed and howled and yelled threats at the keep- ers. On the train to which the car was at- tached the prison officials expected to find friends and relatives of the con- victs and threats had been made that attempts to release the men might be looked for between Ossining and Au- burn. For this reason there were al- most as many guards on the train as there were convicts. The town of Ossin- ing last night and this morning was full of men breathing vengeance against the prison authorities. After he has rid the prison of the second-termers to be transferred to Au- burn, Warden Clancy expects to have no more trouble keeping order. The rest ‘of the second-term convicts are to be bent away tomorrow. To them and a few more desperate sympathizers the Warden attributes the mutinies, the two fires in the prison shops and the at- tempt to murder a negro convict wh the mutineers regarded as a traitor. . bia?

The law- vers said they had not had sufficient time to prepare answers to the several allegations in the petition. An application of the attorneys for the hotel for leave to amend the petition to prevent the activity of pickets at Union Station in pursuading arriving strike- breakers to depart, was refused by the court.

Mayor Kiel told reporters Friday that he had issued an order prohibiting joy riding in city automobiles. The order was issued after an automobile bought for Building Commissioner McKelvey was wrecked at Vandeventer place and Vandeventer avenue Thursday night when three members of the House of Delegates were riding in it. “City automobiles hereafter must be used for city purposes only,.“ said Mayor Kiel. “I have heard reports that city machines were being used for joyriding.

Telephone messages to Ella Miller, occupant of a downstairs apartment at 1820 Kennett place, which were heard by neighbors using the same party line, caused city detectives of the morality squad to be sent to the house Thursday night. With the ald of two new patrol- men and a woman, they obtained evi- dence on which they arrested Miss Miller and Joseph Gavin, a boarder at the house. She ig charged with rent- ing rooms for improper uses, and with selling liquor without a license. Most of the residents of Kennett place, which is a respectable home street near Lafayette Park, stood on their porches, or on the sidewalk, to witness the arrival of the patrol wagon. There were expressions of approval from some of the neighbors as the detectives escorted Miss Miller and Gavin to the convevance, Among the near neighbors are Jus- tice of the Peace Frank M. Kleiber and Police Sergt. Michael Klein. Special Officer Chrismer had been in- formed by some of the neighbors of the telephone messages which had been heard by the users of the party line. and he tried to obtain evidence by the same method. Ho telephoned to the house several times, seeking to rent a room there, and while the answers were such as to in- dicate that he was on the right track, he did not get anything definite enough to use as evidence. He enlisted Probationary Patrolman Dennis McGrath, in civilians clothes, and sent him to the house at 9:30 p. | m., with a woman who consented to act for the purpose of getting evidence. Dennis McGrath, in civilian’s clothes, McGrath and the woman reappeared later, and said that a room had been rented to them, and that four bottles of beer had been sold them at 15 cents | @ bottle. Chrismer then had the woman go back to the house with another pro- ' bationary patrolman, Joseph Kobes, and they returned and made a similar re- port. The raid was then made. Ella Miller, after the arrest, did not deny the charge made by her neighbors. „„I had to pay my rent somehow.“ she said. She and Gavin were released on bond.

Mayor Kiel announced Friday that he Will take up with City Counselor Baird on his return from Europe the question of what action shall be taken by the city against the Manu- facturers’ Railway (Busch line) be- cause of fts failure to construct a belt line on the Bast Side. This line was to be operated in connection with in- nance granted to the railroad in 1906. Paird departed Thursday for a European trip, and attaches of his office said he expects to be gone for four weeks. His departure surprised several members of the . Municipal Assembly, who had made it known that they expected to ask the City Counselor for an opinion on several features of the pending Alton and Mississippi ordinance for an eastern approach to the free bridge. Baird Gone When Mayor Returns. Baird told a Post-Dispatch reporter Tuesday he would take up the East Side belt line ordinance of the Manu- facturer’s Railway with the Mayor when the Mayor returned from Dal- las. The question had been pend- ing in his office some time, he said. Mayor Kiel returned Friday, but Baird already had departed. The absence of Baird indicates, ac- cording to members of the Municipal Assembly, that no legal opinion as to the right of the city to operate a belt line, as provided in the Alton & Mis- sissippi ordinance, or whether the or- dinance will repeal legally, the loca- tion of the Reber approach, can be had until after the return of the City Counselor, This they say, would de- lay action until after the proposed election on the free bridge bond issue. The question of whether a penalty can be collecteck from the Manufacturers’ Railway for not complying with the old ordinance, one of the first important grants made to it by the city, was raised by the clause which specifies that the railway should construct a belt line at least seven miles long on the Fiast Side within five years, to be operated in connection with inclines and a line of ferries across the Mississippi River to be maintained by the railroad. Work was to be begun on the belt line within six months after the ordi- nance was granted in 1906, and the belt and ferry lines were to be completed and in operation within five years, the ordinance directed. The time limit ex- pired in April, 19122. The Manufacturers’ | Railway is subject to a penalty of $25,000 for failure to carry out the provisions of the ordinance. Forfeiture of $26,000 Paid. The question whether another ordi- | nance, passed in 1907, authorizing the | extension of the tracks of the Manu- | facturers’ Railway 10 miles through city streets to the southwestern city limits is still effective, or whether the payment a few months ago to the city of $25,000 forfeiture oy the railway en- empts it from prosecution and allows it to retain its rights to the proposed extension, also is being considered, ac- cording to Mayor Kiel and Baird. George F. Moore, general manager of the Manufacturers’ line, told a Post- Dispatch reporter Friday that attor- neys for the road had advised its of- / ficials that the railway retains the rights granted in the ordinance, Former Mayor Kreismann and members of his administration have asserted that the payment of the penalty made the pro- visions of the ordinance invalid and took all its rights away from the rail- way. r brother, Henry H.

Mayor Kiel was asked if he had rec- ommended that such an approach be built at the expense of the city, or if he approved it. He replied he had not recommended the bill, and had not given the meas- ure much thought since it was in- troduced. He said he was undecided as to how he will act on it if it is passed by the Assembly. Moore, when asked the position of the Manufacturers’ Railway on the question of building an Bast Side belt and line of ferries, asserted the company hag been advised by its at- torneys that it retains its rights under the grant because legislation is pending against the company. A clause extends the time limit, he said, if litigation prevents the car- rying out of the provisions in the time specified.

Western Federation Renews De- mands, but Companies Won't Consider Grievances. GUY MILLER’S STATEMENT Union Board Member Compares Low Michigan Wages With Those of Other Districts. Mich., July 2%.—With six militia ‘companies on duty and other State troops en route from both the upper and lower peninsulas of Michigan, the strike of copper miners quieted measurably today, the third of its ex- igtence. There was practically no dis- order up to noon. The union leaders held fast to their | previous attitude, demanding recogni- | tion of the Western Federation of Min- era, but this was not even considered by the company managements. The pinch of strike conditions, however, spread more generally through the score or more of communities dependent upon the mines, mille and smelters. The action of Hancock retailers in re- fusing further credits to customers yes- terday was repeated in other sections of the district, and it was announced that the wholesalers would take similar ac- tion Monday. A number of union and nonunion men predicted the strike was likely to evolve into a long siege. Outlines Cause of Strike. At union headquarters, plans were laid for a big mass meeting next Sunday and for district and local meetings tonight. and tomorrow and Guy E. Miller, Colorado member of the Executive Board of the Western Federation of Miners, issued a state- ment in which he compared condi- tions in the Calumet district. with those in other copper producing sec- tions. „Tue cause of the strike here was deep-seated unrest, the extent of which the company managements failed to realize,” he said. “In asking recognition of the union, an eight- hour day, abolition of the one-man drill and improved conditions gener- ally, we have simply tried to put the miners and surface workers of the Lake Superior mines on a par with men doing similar work in other parts of America. “In Butte, for instace, the minimum wage, with copper at 15 cents, ts $3.75 a day for underground men, and in no case does it go below $3.50. In Arizona it averages $3.76, but in the Calumet district the minimum Is froin $2 to $2.25 and the men here have been working from 10 to 18 hours a day, whereas in the other mining sec- tions, eight hours constitutes a day's work. | “These facts should effectually dis- pose of any argument by the company that competitye conditions in the metal markets oompelled them to keep their men on the long hours and low wage basis that has prevailed 9285 Danger of One-Man Drill. “Insistence on the abolition of the one-man drill is made on similar grounds, and also because the men em- ployed on them undergo back-breaking Inbor under peculiarly dangerous condi- tions. The minimum weight to be han- died on such a drill is 150 pounds and it is a strenuous task to set up, brace and tend such a machine. Only a few days ago a miner working alone in a slope was struck down bv a fall of rock and he laid ‘there for hours before as- sistance reached him. “Recognition of the union, we feel, is a reasonable request, inasmuch as we think that men who work in a given in- dustry. should be allowed some voice im determining conditions under which that industry is to be conducted, just as an ordinarily citizen has a voice in the affairs of the government which 1 him.“ he attempt to improve bee here came to a climax July 14, when the Federation sent a request to all the companies that within a week they set n date for a conference. One company rotused to acknowledge that such a let- ter had been received. The others merely placed them on file, but vouch- safed no reply. There was nothing for the men to do then except strike, and I believe the companies were considerably sur- prised by the extent of the movement. A union's strength is not always meas- ured by the number of its active mem- bers. At the Baltic location, a body of strik- ers Clashed with deputies, removing their stars and ordering them away. The mine management considered call- ing for troops when one of the officers was beaten, but the disturbance ended quickly and the union men marched Way to other mines on the South range. kat. emfwyp cmfwyp cmfwyp......

Cahokia Creek, which winds its way through the heart of East St. Louis and floods the streets every time it overflows its banks, has been bridled at the source and will be converted into & jhuge sewer near mouth, as a part of the flood protection scheme embraced in the 3l-mile levee along the Mississippi River front, which will cost $6,500,000 and which is now under construction. Ever since East St. Louis became a way station as the first of a group of cities around St Louis, Cahokia Creek, black, oily and slimy, has had a habit of creeping into the back doors and front yards, and shooting great torrents of water down the streets, tearing up pavements and doing all sorts of dam- age. l East St. Louis tried for a long time to elevate itself above the flood level, using some millions of carloads of tin caris and other rubbish, but it was not until the people organized a sanitary district, under an Illinois law, that real flood relief work was undertaken. Creek Hardest Nut. The hardest nut to crack in the flood problem was Cahokia Creek. Engineers took hold of the creek away up at the TheLittle Poag, where it has its source, and built a diversion channel from the bluffs to the Mississippi River to carry off the water. The channel is four and one-half miles long. While waiting for the portion of Caho- kia Creek which flows through East St Louls to be turned into a drainage sewer, the engineers have built several Aoodgates connecting with the levee near the Mississippi to hold the flood Waters in check. Those gates hang vertically across the mouth of the river, the pressure of water from the creek being sufficient to keep them open when the Mississippi River is low. When the river gets high the pressure closes the gates and prevents the water backing into East St. Louis. The building of the 31 miles of levee is one of the largest enterprises eve: undertaken by any group of cities along the Mississippi River. When the wal! is completed, not only East St. Louis but Granite City, Madison and Venice, ond several hundred .square miles of land, will be protected from floods. More than 70,000 people live in the dis- trict and the property values exceed $100,000,000, The money for building the levee is being raised by taxation on property within the district. | Hider Than Filed Record, The levee is being built three and one- half feet higher than the highest flood record, and engineers are of the opinion that it will permanently solve the flood problem for all east side cities and sur- rounding territory. The levee, in some places, consists of a concrete wall, and in other places it is built of clay. The entire levee, how- ever, will be faced with concrete, making it impregnable against floods. The levee first approaches the river front at Venice.

Ail roads and strearos in, the flood ‘istrict are drained by automatic flood gates, similarly constructed to the Ca- hokia creek gates, but much smaller, Bullding Up Property. At a point south of the Merchants’ Bridge property owners have resorted to a novel scheme to build up a 150-acre tract of low ground. This ground is be- ing elevated 25 feet by dirt sucked from the bed of the Mississippi. A 2%-foot centrifugal pump has been erected in the river and is driven by a motor of 1000-horsepower, operated by Keokuk dam water power. Millions of gallons of water are being pumped from the channel of the river into the space behind the sea wall. It is estimated this water contains Y per cent solid matter, which is deposited within the inclosure, while thé water is carried back to the river through a flume. About 15,000 cubic yards of dirt is deposited over the 150 acres of space every 24 hours. It is esti- mated that 171,428 carloads: will be re- quired to build up the tract, which will be used ss the site of the switching yards of the Terminal Railroad Associa. tion. The yard will be the largest in the ald, having a capacity of 10,000 cars. SALESMAN SEARCHES FOR BRIDE OF TWO WEEKS (Kansas City Man Says She Is Second Woman to Become His Wife in Two Months.

He met his present wife two weeks before their marriage, he told the police. Hertz is 31 years old. He could not be found at the Buckingham Hotel Frt- day by reporters. On Inquiry at room 313, Central National Bank Building, where he was said to have an office, a reporter was told that Hertz applied to the company for a job as salesman a week ago, but they knew nothing of his whereabouts. HUSBAND THINKS HIS BRIDE WAS KIDNAPED Kansap Tells Police of Strange ‘Man Who Spoke to Her When They Were in Park. IOLA, Kan., July 25,—Charging that his bride of less than a week had been kidnaped, Harvey Dean, aged 24, son of wealthy parents, who live near Pleasanton, Kan., appealed to the po- lice here for aid in finding her. Dean told the police he and his wife, who is 16 years old, were in a park when a strange man approached and addressed Mrs. Dean. Dean said the stranger became defiant but de- parted when he ordered him away.

Copyright, ra * oo 2 Co. ork LONDO * il Temarkable dis- cussion on the treatment of criminals took place at the annual meeting of the British Medical Association at Brighton. The Rev. C. B. Simpson, chaplain in- spector of prisons, said he had been beth amazed and amused at articles of sloppy sentimentalism setting forth that imprisonment does not act as a deter- rent to crime. He maintained that the attitude of many who are sent to jail is once bitten, twice shy.“ Capt. St. John, honorary secretary of the Penal Reform League, believes that all the harm done to society by all the burglars and all the thieves is a mere English Workman Says He Is En- titled to Estates of Waterford Family. SPIRITED AWAY AS CHILD He Is Son, He Says, of “Mad Marquis, and a Married Wom- an With Whom Marquis Eloped. Copyright, 1918,“ by Press Publishing Co. (New York World.) LUNDON}, July 3.—A preliminary stevo in what may prove to be a sensational fight for a peerage and large estates was taken today in the Chancery Court. The claim is that of George Tooth, a London gardener, who asserts that he is the real Marquis of Waterford. The fifth Marquis, known as the Mad Mar- quis, eloped with the Hon. Mrs. Vivti- an, whom he subsequently married, July 3, 1872, after she had been divorced. She died April 4, 1873, after a child, born six days previously, was announced to have been stillborn. Tooth claims that the child was not bagatelle compared with the harm done| by law courts of England. Everybody knows,” he declared, that the law courts are making crim- inals day by day; so we have to pro- tect ourselves, not only from criminals, but from people who deal with crim- inals.“ Prof. Benjamin Moore of Liverpool said that crime is a good thing because it brings us to understand gociai prob- lems, for New Orimes. “Perfect laws would show that we were no longer progressive,” he said. Old crimes are disappearing and new crimes are arising and I trust new crimes will always arise.“ Dr. Passmore of the Croydon Lunatic Asylum urged that when a man first commits a crime somebody should be appointed to see whether he is insane or criminal, and he should be treated ac- cordingly. Miss Allen of the Woman’s Social and Political Union then gave her experience of a period of imprisonment as a suf- fragette. She said: “IT have asked suffragettes in jail what is the one thing they most craved while ip prison. Their reply was: ‘Coffee, vinegar or alcohol.’ As for myself, dur- ing the three weeks I spent in Holloway Hopes |} Jail, I used to lie awake between 3 and t o’clock in the morning and say to my- elf that if I got out I would take green chartreuse, although I had never taken any in my life before. But when I came out I refrained from doing 80, because I was afraid. There is not enough sun- shine and fresh air in prison, and long sentences undoubtedly cause a weaken- ing of the will.” Crime Is Necessary. Dr. Bishop, barrister-at-law, said: “Crime is necessary. It cannot be F volded. What we have to do is not to eradicate it, but limit those excesses. The administration of criminal law should not be the exclusive privileges of lawyers unless they are experts in polit ical economy and psychology. The most interesting speaker at the meeting was Prince Peter Kropotkin, the Russian agitator, who, since his escape from the fortres of St. Peter and St. Paul, has spent most of his time in England. The Prince is 71 and recent- ly has recovered from a severe illness. He was introduced to the audience as „an old jail bird,” who had spent two years in Russian jalls and a further period in French prisons. The Prince told the meeting that imprisonment is no deterrent to crime. “Twenty-four hours of bread and water and a plank bed might be a deter- rent to people accustomed to good food.“ he said, “but it is no deterrent to those who sleep under bridges or by the shores er the Thames. Prisons are the univer- sities of crime and we must do some- thing to change our system.“ AMERICA AND ASIA IN TOUCH BY WIRELESS Messages Exchanged Between Stations in Alaska and Siberia. NOME, Alaska, July %.—Direct wire- less communication between America and Asia is now an accomplished fact, the United States Army Signal Corps Station here having been in nightly communication since Sunday with the Russian station at Anadyr, Siberia, 500 miles west of Nome. A message from Baron Kleit, governor of the Siberian province of Kamtchatka, was transmitted, extending congratu- lations on the establishment of wire- less communication between * and America. The Russians operate a chain of four stations between Anadyr and Viad:- vostok and for the last six months the Signal Corps operators here have been trying under orders from Washington to establish communication with the Russian stations. . ily Head t Pi one eet 6 Dr Pat. ae M.

David, who expected efforts would be made to serve warrants on his cliént based on the indictment found by a Federal grand jury in New York. Lamar, who testified before the Senate Lobby Investigating Committee recently that he had impersonated public men in telephone conversations in his Wall street campaigns, was indicted for pos- ‘ing as an officer of the Government for purposes of fraud.“ Attorney David declared the warrant would be registered, for at the present time it would be “inconvenient” for his client to go to New York. “I have heard that the warrant was to be served today,” he said. “I do not know personally what is in the in- dictment against Mr. Lamar, for, de- spite my efforts to obtain a copy of the true bill, I have been/ denied that priv- ilege. My client is ready to appear be- fore United States Commissioner Taylor here, but he will fight any attempt to remove him from Washington at this time.“ Lamar has been living in a downtown hotel since he gave his testimony to the Senate committee. Both the late J. Pierpont Morgan and the present J. P. Morgan, with Louis Cass Ledyard, Henry R. Davison, Tem- ple Bowdoin, Arthur E. Newbold, Wil- liam Pierson Hamilton, Edward T. Statesbury, Charles Steele, William H. Porter, Thomas W. Lamont and Hora- tio G. Lioyd, composing the partnership of J. P. Morgan & Co., are mentioned as persons whom Lamar is accused of having attempted to defraud. According to the indictment, Lamar employed “cunning acts and deception’ in an effort “to fraudulently deprive said persons aad corporations of divers sums of money. The Government bases its action on an opinion given in 188 by Benjamin Harrison Brewster, formerly United States Attorney-General, that in a broad and general sense a member of Congress is a Government officer.“ Sec- tion 32 of the Federal criminal code, under which the indictment 16 found, provides as punishment upon conviction a fine not in excess of $1000 or impris- onment of not more than three years. The articles of jewelry stolen were gifts to Governor and Mrs. Dunne and she prized them highly. 5 * we 7: - - 7 20 * Tn , 2 o Pr ee ee . 1 2 — 3 N * i . 7 * rer BY BO 7 . y * 8 * — People Are Renting Safe Deposit Boxes Just at this time more people than usual are renting safe deposit boxes.

In a statement issued today the commission says it has no jurisdic- tlon over the compensation pald by the postal service for hauling the mails. In part the statement follows: “The commission does not consider that the provisions of the parcel post act to the effect that certain changes may be made by the Postmaster Gen- eral, with the consent of the commis- sion, contemplates that the commis- sicn shall necessarily hold hearings on such proposals, but when, after such investigation, as it deems fit, the commission is satisfied that the proposed changes are ‘in order to promote the service to the publie or to insure the receipt of revenue from such service adequate to pay the cost thereof,’ it is proper for the commission to give its consent to the change, The question of compensation to the carriers for hauling the mails is a mat- ter of contract between them dnd the Postoffice Department in sonnection with which this commission has no ju- | risdiction.” Appears Before Committee. In an answer to criticism of his -pro- posed reduction of rates and the in- crease of size of parcel post packages, Postmaster-General Burleson today ap- peared before the Senate Postoffice Committee with Chairman Clark of the Interstate Commerce Commission. The Postmaster-General read a letter from the Interstate Commerce Commis- sion stating that it was satisfied that conditions were such as to prevent the shipment by parcel post of many arti- cles and that the proposed changes were in order to promote the service to the public, - Senator Bristow said he believed the Postmaster-General had authority to change the rates and zones if the In- terstate Commerce Commission ap- proved. Other Senators agreed, but questioned his authority to abandon the distinctive stamp. “I felt that the Congress wanted the Postmaster-General to go ahead and improve this service and not to be con- tent with standing still,.“ said Burleson. We are going to make money on this new business and we will be able to make further reductions in rates.“ Chicago Revenue Increases. Since the introduction of the parcel post, said Burleson, the revenue of the Chicago Postoffice had increased 21.63 per cent, He believed that due to the parcel post, and added that was the greatest income in the history of the Chicago office. That's because the big mail order houses are located there,“ suggested Senator Bristow. “They were honestly in favor of abol- ishing the parcel post stamp,” returned Burleson. . Postmaster-General Burleson produced figures to show that on 20-pound pack- ages the Government would make a profit of 10 cents. Senator Bryan de- clared there would be a loss of 8 cents.

Minority’s Ball of Discontent In- terferes With Clean Putt to Hole Against Physician. The Glen. Echo Country Club is stymied. While the majority of the membership is in a position to make a straight putt to the hole of prosperity, the minority has the ball of discontent in such a position that it inte:feres with the play. This describes the situation as out- lined to a Post-Dispatch reporter Fri- day, following the continuance for a week of Dr. Leland Boogher’s suit in the St. Louis County Circuit Court to re- strain the club from denying him its privileges. In golf a player is said to be stymied when the opposing player’s ball.is be- tween his ball and the hole in such a position that it interferes with his scor- ing. Club Needs Long Green, Officers of the club deny that it is “in the hole.“ At the same time they admit that the club would be more prosperous if it could get a little more “long green” from the members in return for the fine ex- panses of “fair green” which it is giving them. ‘It would also like to realize the proper dividend of substantial appreciation for the thousands of geranium plants and rose bushes which embellish the club grounds and the less ornamental but more or less useful staff of 40 servants maintained at the clubhouse. It was learned Friday that this ap- parent discrepancy between the demands of club members and.their appreciation of luxuries which have made the club famous, caused John O. Ballard to re- sign as secretary and director of the club. Calvin L. Robinson was elected to succeed Ballard. Rich St. Louisans who ofganized the have found that “bunkers” and “haz- as well to club management as to the fine green expanse of countryside on which their favorite game is played. A former officer of the club, whd is still a member in the ranks, told a Post-Dispatch reporter Friday that the principal trouble was that the members who insisted on luxuries sel- dom visited the club, while those who went there most often did not spend enough money to support the luxu- ries. : Went Home for Meals. While 40 servants were idle in the clubhouse, an equal number of members would be out on the links. When they were through playing, the members would hurry home in their automobiles or on street cars without stopping to order dinners or to spend money for re- freshments,”” he said. “A club with the pretensions of the Glen Echo cannot be run unless the members spend money there. Some of the members would visit the club only two or three times a season and when they saw that the dining room was not filled, they would argue that this must be because of some fault of the service. Between the members who wouldn't spend when they were there and the members who wouldn't regularly visit the club a condftion arose which made it necessary to levy assessments to meet expenses. . Denies Financial Troubles. Despite Dr. Boogher's injunction suit to restrain the club from collecting as- sessments from him after his election as a life member, officers of the club do not believe they “foozled their ap- proach’’ when they planned to make it the most luxurious golf club in the neighborhood of St. Louis. The club is not in financial diffiel- ties and everything will be all right,” said Secretary Robinson Friday. ine present controversy is the result of spite work.

FRIDAY EVENING, JULY 25, 1913. TRACE FOR QUEEN IN DOUBT/| GHAN GANG PARTS HUSBAND OF dl AND BRIDE OF 17 Mr. and Mrs. Jones the Victims of Complications. Which In- volve Both on Charges of Bigamy. JESUP, Ga., July 24.—A sentence to seven months on the chain gang for big- amy broke up the honeymoon of Nathan E. Jones, aged 60, and his 17-year-old bride, Who was Hattie Riosela Robertson. The bride is under bond to answer to a charge of bigamy at the November terms of court. Eight years ago, after his first wife died, Jones married Miss“ Alice Drig- gers. Immediately after the ceremony she told him she was already the wife of H. 8. Driggers. Thereupon, Jones says, he simply ordered her off his farm and told her never to return. He married Hattie a few weeks ago, soon after their first meeting, at the home of the girl’s mother, Justice of the Peace J. J. Cleary performing the cere- mony. Hattie, it appears, had been married to a Mr. Thomas, but she had told Jones that Thomas had admitted to her that he had two other wives, and te Jones’ mind she was thereafter free to marry someone else. When Sheriff Price learned of the latest marriage he sent his deputy, Rogers, to Screven, where the Jones farm is located, to arrest the couple. Jones, hearing of it, locked up the house, and with his bride and a bundle of clothes and food, started across country. Deputy Rogers traced them to the farm of a Mr. Chauncey, in Pierce County, 11 miles from Screven, and arrested them and brought them to Jesup. In jail the two were permitted to talk to each other in the bride's room for a short time every day, and they seemed to be very happy. Ves, we're spending part of our honeymoon in jail, but it’s our honey- moon just the same,“ said the bride, smiling up at her aged spouse, whose hand she was holding in the yard of the jail during a short walk that was allowed them in the open air. “I just couldn’t live with that other husband of mine. He told me one day that he had another wife; he bragged to me in fact, that he had two or three other wives. So I left him and went back home to mother. Then Nathan came along, and I fell in love with him, and so I married him.” “For eight years,” sald the husband, looking down fondly at his bride. “I lived free from women after I had run that Alice Driggers off my farm. But when I saw Hattie Rosdla a month ago I just had to marry her. And as soon as I get out of this jail trouble, Hattie and I will be perfectly happy together. Both appear to be guiltless of biga- mous intent, and in view of all the cir- cumstances there is very general sym- pathy for them. CANNOT SPEAK EACH OTHER’S LANGUAGE; WED Greek and Hungarian Belle Ac- quainted Two Days—How He Proposed Mystery. GARY, Ind., July 25.—A young couple, neither of whom can speak the language of the other, eloped to- day to Crown Point. There they took the marriage vow by means of an in- terpreter. On their way home they were ar- rested at the instance of the bride's father because of her youth. They were taken to the Gary police sta- tion, where neither could give the other a word of comfort. Later the father relented and they were re- leased. Manuel Courititis, 28, a Greek, and Juliana Gaitis, a Hungarian belle of 16, are the principals. Courititis and two days and John Gaitis, the bride’s father, can’t figure how he proposed to her, unless by means of the sign language. SON OF W. H. WIDER IN GRAVE CONDITION Rallied After Death Was Fear- ed, Following an Operation for Appendicitis. Gerard Wider, 16-year-old son of Wil- liam H. Wider of 5512 Etzel avenue, was in a critical condition Friday at St. Luke’s Hospital, following an operation for appendicitis. Thursday night hope for his recovery was almost abandoned, but Friday morning physicians -said there had been a slight improvement. He js the younger of two sons of W. H. Wider, who is connected with the Scudders-Gale Grocer Co. Mrs. Wider died at St. Luke’s a year ago, after. an operation.

YOUNG, URGED TO STAY, HOLDS UP HER RESIGNATION Takes Three Days to Reconsider After Mayor and Other Leaders Ask Her To. ROW WITH SCHOOL BOARD Chicago Women Planned Huge Mass Meeting to Protest Against Withdrawal. By Aesociated Press. CHICAGO, July 15.—Mrs. Ella Flagg Young, who yesterday resigned as su- perintendent of Chicago's public schools because of friction with members of the School Board, announced today that she would take under consideration for three days the question of withdrawing her resignation. Mayor Harrison, President Reinberg of the School Board and Many women’s clubs and civic organizations have appealed to Mrs. Young to remain in her position. She is 68 years old. Plans for a huge mass meeting of women to protest against the resigna- tion of Mrs. Young were set on foot as soon as it became generally known that Mrs. Young had decided to give up the position. That Mrs, Young should have been influenced to present her resignation by the conduct of mem- bers of the Board of Education un- friendly to her aroused the indignation of many prominent women. Every woman's club in the city was notified of the meeting, which was set or Sunday evening at the Auditor- sa Among those active in the move- ment to induce Mrs. Young to recall her resignation are leading suffragists and social workers. Calamity Says Jane Addams. The resignation of Mrs. Young is a calamity,”’ sald Miss Jane Addams of Hull House, “If she was forced to re- sign by opposition to her policies, steps immediately should be taken to sweep away the opposition. Chicago cannot afford to lose a woman of Mrs. Young’s force of mind and executive power. Sentiment is unanimous that to accept the resignation would be a tremendous blunder.” . Mrs. Young stated in her letter of resignation that “I shall be relieved from laboring under the handicap of indefinitenes., which influences a person in making plans to be ex- ecuted by another almost from their inception,” and would make no com- ment. The resignation was given to take ef- fect Aug. 13. Mrs. Young: has been connected with the Chicago schools 61 years and is an ex-president of the National Education Association. Her salary was $10,000 a year and she hag been in office four years. It was reported that new members of the school board not favor- able to her politics would be ap- pointed by Mayor Harrison in the next two weeks. Another rumor was that the board was likely to decide against Mrs. Young on a spelling book question. She accused one of the members of the board of having worke. against the interests of the schools in the spelling book matter, and this has brought about much ill feeling. The book trust was against her. Aristocratic Touring Cars. By hour, day or trip; no meters. Reliable Auto Livery Co. Lindell 2660. Delmar 1510.

Trophies Three handsome trophies have been sent to Adjutant-General O’Meara of ‘the National Guard of Missouri by the Du Pont Powder Co.—these to be con- tested for by the various company or- ganizations of the National Guard of the State. One of the trophies has been turned over to Col. Nelson G. Edwards, com- manding the First Regiment Infantry, N. G. M. and is on display in the win- dow of the J. Kennard & Sons Carpet Co., Fourth and Washington avenue. It is in the form of a large shield, made of mahogany, surmounted by a spread eagle on a union shield and two crossed flags, all executed in silver. Be- low this, in the center of the shield, ts a bronze circle, enclosing the words, „National Defense Trophy.“ On each ‘side of this are spaces for the names of succeeding winners. Under the circle are two crossed olive branches, also in silver.

Delegates to the conference will be present from Wyoming, Kansas, Utah, Idaho, Colorado, Washington, California, Oregon and Arizona, the states having full women suffrage. Illinois, in which women recently won a modified right to the ballot, also may obtain representa- tion. Ways and means of bringing in- fluence to bear locally in the various states still regarded as dary territory” by the suffragists, will be considered at the conference, which will be executive. Thirty-eight members of Congress have signified their intention of attend- ing the banquet to be given by the “‘pil- grim” suffragists, who will storm Con- gress Thursday. A number of these have promised to deliver addresses. The ‘pilgrims’ are converging on Washing- ton in automobiles from all points of the compass, according to a statement is- gued today from the headquarters of the National American Woman Suffrage As- ' pociation.

Special to the Post-Dispatch. . NEW ORLEANS, July 2.-—Miss Au- gusta Agnes Edwards, a stenographer, 29 years old, tragically avenged herself upon George W. Riehl, a married man ruining her life, and then planning to street here last night. He died an hour later at the Charity Hospital. After fatally wounding Riehl with a shot in the left temple, Miss Ed- wards fired three of the remaining shots in her revolver at Rienl's still erect fig- ure, but they went wild. The fifth bul- let she saved for the purpose of killing herself, but deciding on an impulse that “he was not worth my Hife,“ fired the last cartridge at Riehl after he had fall- en to the sidewalk. It also missed. Then, as seores of passersby scattered in all directions, she stepped to the curb- stone and a moment later handed the smoking weapon to a policeman, to whom she remarked coolly: “T killed him because he wronged me and tried to desert me.“ But she fainted on being taken to the First Precinct Po- lice Station, a few blocks away. Deliberately Planned Deed, That Miss Edwards had deliberately resolved to expiate her misstep by a double crime was disclosed when she was searched at the police station. In her handbag was found a note in her writing which was intended as a post- humous explanation of her deed. It read: “Tl the undersigned, premeditate mur- desert her, by shooting him on the ST.

EDWARDS, 4734 Laurel street.“ Riehl was 48 years old and was book keeper for a shirt manufacturing com- pany. He had previously been a jeweler. His death disclosed to astonished rela- tives and friends that he had been secret- ly acting a double role through an in- trigue with Miss Edwards, who was for- merly employed as his stenographer. According to her, their relations had ex- isted two years. Mrs. Riehl was pros- trated by the disclosure. When Riehl left his office at 8 p. m. Miss Edwards was waiting for him on the sidewalk. After exchanging greet- ings they fel] into step together and walked along Carondelet street until they reached Common street. Strugglied for Haudbag. There they stopped and bystanders heard her voice raised as if in re- proaches, while the man sought to quiet her. Suddenly .they were seen to be struggling for possession of her hand- bag. Riehl, probably alarmed by his companion’s words and fearing what the bag might contain, seized if and at- tempted to open it. The young woman jerked the bag from his hand, tore it open and snatched out a revolver. Then came one shot, then three more in swift succession, and then, after a short interval, a fifth one. Miss Edwards, her resolution falling at the last moment, only half carried out her plan and spent the bullet reserved for herself in a last shot at Riehl. She was arraigned in cout on a charge of murder this morning, and despite the note in which she admitted the crime was premeditated, pleaded self-defense. She declared that Riehl was attempting to get the revolver from her handbag, and that she was quicker than he.

FREDERICK EDWARDS IS FREED OF GIRLS’ CHARGE Wellston Suatise Holds That Ev- idence Exonerates Him of Accusation of Attack. Frederick Edwards, of 3421 Market street, was exonerated Thursday by Justice Braun at Wellston of a charg2 of attacking Anna Dockum, 17 years old, during an automobile ride in St. Louis County, July 14.

Edwards’ wife was in court aod heard the testimony of Miss Dockum and her companions, Clara McKinney and Coy Haynes.

Miss Dockum is employed at the Lig- gett & Myer Tobacco Co. factory. Misses McKinney and Haynes are em- ployed by the Wagner Electric Co., at Wellston. They board at 682 Easton avenue.

The plan so far defined is to offer the friendly offices of the United States to bring about a peace- ful settlement of the war between the Mexican factions, ; A commission, probably with Secretary Bryan at its head—if he can spare the time from the chautauqua circuit—is to be sent to Mexico to make a thorough investigation of the situation and try to induce Ss np and the Car- ranza insurgents to submit their causes to a popu- lar vote. The election is to determine which fac- tion shall undertake the Government with the rec- ognition and moral support of the United States. There will be sneers from both American and European jingoes at this policy of peaceful media- tion. It lacks the dazzle of militarism, the thrill of the strong arm and the lure of conquest and exploitation. It has no attraction for the world ad- venturer, the sordid concessionaire or the greedy; financier. As the policy of a great republic, standing for liberty and striving for leadership in peace and progress, it has substantial and shining merits. It is an appeal to reason. It thrusts aside selfish advantage and favors the immediate benefit of Mexico and the ultimate good of both peoples. It ‘checks bloodshed and promotes peace and good will. } Until the mediation has been tried the United States will observe a strict neutrality between the warring forces. Neither will be permitted to ob- tain arms in this country. The attempt to mediate may fail. The Mexicans may prefer to fight out their differences, in which event we shall be in the same position that we are now, with the advantage that we have tried in a friendly spirit to bring about peace and the avoid- ance of complications which may lead to war be- tween the two countries. We shall have proved our good will. | Should the peace policy succeed we shall have accomplished much for Mexico, for the United States, for civilization.” Mexico will be relieved of fratricidal war and will have a stable govern- ment. We shall be freed from the possibility of a bloody and costly campaign. The cause of peace and of international amity will be greatly strengthened. Success would mark one of the brightest pages in the annals of American diplomacy. = = i i A The $400-a-year families at the forks-of-the- creek are going to find it hard to understand why a passionate friend of the people thinks he needs to lay by $10,000 a year. = = rr NIPPING ‘‘INCOMPETENCE’’ I’ THE BUD. The one point assigned for the failure of ef- forts at ending the telephone strike is the compa- ny’s attitude on the reinstatement of employes whose discharge is attributed to incompetence. Before the House of Delegates Committee Clara Dill testified that just after being commended she was discharged as “unsatisfactory” by an official who saw her coming from a union meeting. Mazie Julian testified she worked a year at the Webster Exchange and was discharged after being ques- tioned about.unionism. Mazie Forest testified she worked five years at the Main Exchange and was discharged after declining to sign a pledge not to join the union. “We will nip this thing in the bud,” Manager Hiss is reported as saying. Does the company still insist these girls are incompe- tent? Does it delay settlement because settlement would mean their reinstatement? Miss Nellie Carter’s case is particularly interest- ing. She worked 10 years, becoming supervisor of the Tyler Exchange. She testified she was dis- charged because she said the union would be a good thing. Is it to nip in the bud her “ineompe- tence,” discovered after 10 years, that the com- pany is delaying an adjustment? Telephone operators require peculfar qualifica- tions. The service is exacting. The heroism of individuals maintaining lines of communication in the crises of flood, fire and storm has won for them a distinctive place in the public mind. Up to a recent date they have been among the poorest paid of all women workers. To reject mediation that would do justice to faithful workers is un- justifiable. Secretary of the Navy Sephus Daniels does not affect jewelry, but having been presented at Los Angeles with the Pacific Ocean can hardly refuse to wear it as a watch charm. = = — ae VEGETATING. A nice old gentleman, aged 89, who signs him- self “Vegetarian,” favors us with this thrilling account of himself and his adventures: I know from observing my fellow creatures that too many men and women violate the laws of nature and suffer for it I am now 89 years old. I never have a headache or toothache. I have all my own teeth as sound as ever. I never eat animal food. I am a vegetarian. I drink no tea or coffee, never smoke, never have in my life drunk one drop of beer or wine or whisky. It must have seemed a good deal longer than 89 years. It would be interesting to know just how long 89 years seem to a vegetable—to a really prudent vegetable. | Those ascetic human specimens whom we may properly classify as flora are certainly among the most curious of our phenomena.

It was only the other day that the dean of cigarette fiends died in Mex- ico at the age of 149, having succumbed to nico- tine more than a century ago, to say nothing of throwing his promising young life away eating meat (when he could get it) and drinking coffee— and marrying a new wife every few decades or as often as death bereaved him. This graceless old reprobate belonged evidently not to the flora but to the fauna of his region. We are unable to say whether he retained his own teeth intact up to the moment of his untimely death (under cir- cumstances which we forbear to mention need- lessly out of consideration for the relatives), but he left a line of children ranging up from 6 months to 127 years, scores of whom are now en- gaged in the great enterprise of tearing down or building up empire in their promising country, furthering the world’s work, helping progress and contributing to the eventual civilization of man- kind. b As Poor Richard said in his Almanack, the no- blest question in the world is, What good may I do in it? It is not, How long may I stay in it? = = * — ne r LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE citation and Jingoism. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The country will know shortly how far the change of party control at Washington involves. a change in policy of militant exploitation of. human lite on the basis of coolie labor. As this poli¢y has correlated with jingoism during three administrations, agents of militant, plutocracy who have been put into the United States Senate as Democrats are now plotting to make exploita- tion a policy of the present administration, They have involved the obtuse Secretary of State in a plan for exploiting Central America, not differ- ing at all in purpose from that introduced in Hawaii when this system was inaugurated under compulsion from the United States Government, The same purpose appears unmistakably when it is proposed that our troops shall invade Mex- ico. We have illustrated in Mexico now the inevitable results of government under which men, women and children are made and kept marketable as coolies, under government control to keep up the supply .of cheap labor. As Mex- loans have been thus exploited by, their own position of plutocrats from the United States, Germany and Great Britain, seekfng in Mexico to find or to make human life cheaper than they can find it or make it at home. When this gross and long continued oppression convinces Mexicans who have been thus exploited that death is bet- ter than life under such conditions, they show that they prefer to die fighting. Except as human life can be reduced te its lowest levels of de- gradation and kept there, this will inevitably result as soon as exploitation begins to succeed fully under its own standards. If human intel- ligence is not suppressed the success of this policy at its climax must be followed by mas- sacre to continue the dividends which have been drawn from it. Even the work of homicide is ifkely to prove so costly to all concerned, in- that it may “stagger humanity.” In the case of Mexico, it must appear to im- partial reason, that Mexicans are rational in concluding that. they would rather die than live to be thus exploited with the same system ex- tending to their posterity after them. If they die as fighting men, rather than live as degraded commodities in the cheap labor market, that certainly is a privilege the Constitution of the United States ‘gives us no warrant of theory for denying them, nor is there in it a shadow of warrant under which we may interfere with them. When allowed to “take over” the flag as a commercial asset, that they may carry it beyond the Constitution in search of the cheapest labor which can be kept in subjection, the banded cor- porations which demand the coolie system as a Twentieth century substitute for chattel slavery, have shown that they know how to practice the jingoism which makes it appear that this is manifest destiny for the glory of the United States. As the spirit of exploitation operates abroad, however, it must show itself at home, creating issues which all reasonable men wish to avoid. To continue four years longer the exploitation of human life, which has been systematized dur- ing the last 12 years, may compel an accounting in full from those who are responsible for this} attempt to use governments as agents for dealing in human life as a commodity.

I have read that the Daughters of the Reveolu- tion contemplate erecting a monument to Brad- dock on the scene of his defeat. Braddock’s defeat was ignominious because of his ignorance and refused to take the advice of the Colonial officers serving under him, who were experienced in Indian warfare. He fought, failed and died before the Revolution. Washing- ton served under him. If the Daughters must needs erect a monument to a British officer, while so many American heroes are unhonored in that way, why not erect a monument to Gen. Howe, who died leading his soldiers into the breach at Ticonderogo, for which gallant death he lies in Westminster Abbey. A VIRGINIA DESCENDANT OF GEN. HOWE. Tuxedo, Mo. ae NEWSPAPER MEN IN OFFICE. From the Chicago Tribune. For some unexplained reason President Wilson has taken a great liking to newspaper men. He has a newspaper owner and editor, Mr. Josephus Daniels, as his Secretary of the Navy. Secretary Bryan, by a stretch of the imagination, might also be called a journalist. The real editor of the Commoner, Mr. Metcalfe, has been made Civil Administrator of the Canal Zone. Mr. Galloway, of the Civil Service Commission, is a practical newspaper map. Mr. Lane of the Interior De- partment, has had a varied newspaper career. Mr. McAdoo’s secretary, R. Newton, was a re- porter. Mr. Bryan's third assistant, D. F. Malone, has written for the magazines, and Mr. Bryan's secretary was a reporter. “Bob” Rose has a place in the Foreign Trade Department, and it is pro- posed to make Prof. Ford of Johns Hopkins, journalist of wide experience.

Ie fears such action would dangerously ydistract public attention, and the atten- tion of Congress, from pending tariff and currency bills, and he thinks it more important to pass these measures than to accomplish any other result at this time. The President is, moreover, more impressed than his Attorney-General with the possibly unsettling effect upon ceneral business that would follow dras- tic criminal action against the masters of these great trusts and the probable appointment of receivers for their prop- erties. The foregoing statements were made to. me by à distinguished trust prosecu- tor lately in touch with the Attorney- General. That official, my informant as- serts, has not become less but rather more skeptical concerning the sincerity of the trust “dissolutions,” under com- mon ownership of their constituent com- panies ostensibly competitive, which were arranged with the aproval of his predecessor in office, Mr. Wickersham. Nor is the President less than former- ly impressed with the vital need to break down trust monopolies in this country, as witness the following ex- cerpt from one of his syndicated arti- cles, published throughout the country Sunday, July 2: “I have been told by a great many men that the idea I have, that by re- storing competition you can restore in- dustrial freedom, is based upon a fallure to observe the actual happenings of the last decades in this country; because, they say, it is just free competition that has made it possible for the big to crush the little. ‘TI reply, it is not free competition that has done that; it is fllicit competition. It 1s competition of the kind that the law ought to stop, and can stop—this crushing of the little man. —— WRITERS OF NATIONAL SONGS. From the London Chronicle, Most of the songs that have made history were written by men who had no other claim to immortality. The ‘‘Marseillaise” is the only production of Rouget de Lisle, which has sur- vived, and “The Wearing of the Green“ was the work of an anonymous pur- veyor of ballads for the street hawk- ers of Dublin. Mas Schneckenburger, an obscure Swabian merchant, who never published anything’ else, com- posed in 18% some verses of which the burden was thus translated: “Dear Fatherland, no danger line, Firm stand thy sons to watch the Rhine.” Little was heard of these until # years later, when the Franco-German War gave them an enormous vogue.

Thus their competitors can be put out of business, one by one, wherever they dare to show a head.

FTER the meeting had broken up, and young George Maxwell had enthusiastically shaken hands with his friends and sup- porters, he hurried home to tell the family the great news. He had been nominated for the Legislature. His mother laid aside her magazine and leaned back in her rocking chair to listen to George's brisk and rather excited account of the doings at the eaucua, She was not at all surprised that he had recéived the nomination; she would not have been surprised if it had been for the governorship, although George Was only a couple of years out of law school and was in no danger of break- ing down from stress of legal business. His father, glancing up over the top of his newspaper and spectacles, re- marked: “Well, George, now that you are in it, you mustn’t disgrace the family by los- ing the election. If you do, I shall have an engagement with you in the cellar.” He said this in a certain significant tone, that recalled to George some vivid memories. Jenny, the impulsive Jenny, whose ad- miration for her handsome and popular brother was unbounded, stood on tip- toes and kissed him. From that moment Jenny was a most ‘rabidly partisan politician. She took George’s campaign in charge. She had never cared much for newspa- pers, but now she studied them religious- ly, and read every scrap of news on the “situation.” She poured over the editorials, too, and, with all the arguments at her dainty finger tips, she routed the grocer in debate, convinced the butcher and rose at 5 o’clock one morning to exact from the milkman a solemn promise to vote for George. She pointed out to them all that the opposition candidate was a mere ma- chine politician, one that could not pos- sibly receive the vote of an honest man who knew his character. It was quite true that this hapless candidate could not possibly receive the vote of a susceptible man—after the lat- ter had talked with Jenny. Both directly and indirectly Jenny ‘worked for the cause, Mere acquaint- ances, who had not seen her for months, were pleased by her chatty little visits, and told their fathers and brothers what a nice little girl Miss Maxwell was and how her brother was running for the Legislature. Jenny saw to it that there were fa- thers and brothers to tell; mere voter- less families were not favored with calls from her just then. If George had not forbidden it, Jenny would have made a house-to-house can- vues in the district. As it was, she was beating to a standstill the boys in the club who were campaigning for But Jenny could, of course, do other things besides conduct a political cam- paign. For example, she could dance. If you had asked Jenny if she liked characteristic answer “Oh, I just lo-ove Thus it was that che went to a ball at the armory one night just before the ‘ . This did not mean, however, that Jenny was taking even a brief va- cation from her campaign labors; not at all, .

She was too alert a campaign Worker to miss a chance like this. Are you taking much interest in the election this year?” she began. Oh, yes, a little interest,” the youn man answered carelessly. But every voter should take more just a little interest,“ said Jenny with spirit. “If the men took more in- But I am work- | with him.’ The smile was again robust. Well, will you dance this waltz with me? He was an excellent dancer, and Jen- ny was about to consent smilingly, ptt she caught herself in time. She had no intention of sacrificing op- portunity and duty for mere pleasure. “I shall be delighted to,” she said, not rising, but smiling up at him, “pro- vided you give me something.” Anything.“ exclaimed the young man recklessly. , “Oh, no, you wouldn’t,” replied Jen- ny, studying her fan for an instant, “but I am not going to ask you w give me much—just your promise tc vote for my brother George.” „W-h-a-t!“ | It was a long drawn out exclamation. ending in a laugh as he stood looking down at her. Jenny felt that her opin- ion of him was beginning to change. He had impressed her as being such a gen- tleman, and here he was laughing at ap- parently nothing at all. It was silly, to say the least, Jenny was inclined to be indignant. I'm sure I don’t know what amuses you so,“ she said with some asperity, “put I do know that you can’t have the dance till I have the promise. ff you don’t hurry,” she added, glancing up at him with a sudden and extremely allur- ing smile, we'll miss half of it.“ That would never do—never in the world,” he exclaimed with much posi- tiveness, but you see, it is a very bad practice to make election pledges. It is responsible for lots of abuses. “Oh, dear, this dance will soon be half over, and you asked me for it? Do you consider yourself very gallant?’ “But I may have strong convictions against voting the way you Ask.“ “It is such a lovely waltz, too.” . She was swaying her head gently to the music. “Isn't there some other promise I can make you?” Why. certainly not,” said Jenny. Privy os I promise,’ he exclaimed u the tone of a man ace — evitable. pga sts “On your word of honor?’ questioned Jenny, gazing at him searchingly. “On my word of honor,” he repeated solemnly but saying to himself: “If the boys should get hold of this, they would guy me for a year.” “I'm glad vou weren’t obstinate very long,” remarked Jenny as she placed. a small gloved hand on his shoulder, “because I was just crazy for this dance. Of course you were only trying to be tantalizing. I knew from the start that you would give me your promise.” “Oh you did, did you? Well, I want to tell you one thing, and that is that you are simply a wonder as a cam- paign worker. Why, you can do things with just a few smiles that no blessed man in this oity could accomplish if he should work for months at it. When your brother George runs for President he must certainly make you Chairman of the National Campaign Committee,” “I shall help George all I can, of course, if he ever runs for Pre:@dent,” said Jenny seriously, “but that can’t be for a long time yet. A man must be quite old—35, isn’t it?—before he can be elected President.” “Yes, and I have no doubt that is the only reason George isn’t running this year.” ‘ If Jenny noticed this sarcasm she paid no attention to it. Her mind was relieved now, and she gave herself up completely to the spirit of the dance, When the music died'away and she sat down she was in a glow. She thought very well of the good-look- ing gentleman at her side. “Do you know,” she exclaimed, “I would like very much to have you meet my brother George, I am sure you and he would be congenial. Wouldn't you like to come up to our house election night? We are going to have a few friendg in to hear the returns and to celebrate George’s victory with à little dance.” “You are very kind indeed,” he said with a smile, “but I hardly think 1 shall be able to help you celebrate George's victory—not this year,” he udded in an undertone to himself. Tou see,” he went on, “I already have an engagement of much the same kind for election night.” “Oh, I see,” exclaimed Jennie brightly; “you are going to celebrate the victory of the ticket somewhere else. It will bo a great night, won't it? zou must meet George, anyway. Here he comes now.“ Jenny's brother was approaching smil- ingly. Her convert turned around. The eyes of the two men met, and while Jenny was struggling mentally: to [SOMETHING NEW * * EMERY | bevILED SARDINES ThE AWNING . DRESS, A COOL, COMFORTABLE SUMMER CREATION — VERY MODEST- .

HE tongue is really a group of muscles, some running from root to tip, others crogsways, Any one of these museſes can be used separately or in combination with the others, so that we can move the whole tongue in any direction—lengtben or shorten it, hollow or arch it. The tongue is moistened by the mucus made by the mucous membrane that lines the mouth and by saliva from the salivary glands. The mucous of the mouth is controlled by the nervous sys- tem and can be greatly disturbed by worry or fear. That is why when we are very much worried or suddenly frightened our mouths become so dry we can hardly swallow. The surface of the tongue is closely covered with little points. In each one of these points is the end of a nerve of taste that runs from the brain to the tongue. These little points are called taste bulbs and they are most abundant on the sides and the tip of the tongue. They are fewer on the back of the tongue, because that part of it is used mainly to roll the food and throw it into the throat. The human tongue is comparatively smooth, showing we are descended from creatures that were vegetarian. A tiger’s tongue is so rough it will draw blood if you allow him to lick your hand.

I hope you are not trying to win her over to your side, because she’s my best worker. Why, she’s about the worst enemy you've got, Eaton.“ “I know she is,“ replied Eaton, grin- ning. “You wouldn't believe it, but she has actually made me turn against my- self. She has convinced me, Maxwell. that the only way I can be a good citl- zen and save my self-respect is to vote for you.” ° There was an outburst of laughter. Jenny stood bewildered. „What in the name of common sense are you men talking about?” she man- aged to ask. “Why, you little goose,“ said George, turning to her, “don't you know that this is Mr. Eaton, my op- ponent?” . Jenny gasped. She leaned heavily against her brother’s arm and said faintly: «= “George, I wish you would take me over to the lemonade table, I’m—lI’m choking.” | But despite Mr. Eaton's confident forecast, George did triumph at the polls, and on election night Jenny helped to celebrate in joyous fash- ion, though with perhaps just a tinge of regret over the disappointment George's victory must have caused his defeated opponent. | As for Eaton, he attributes his de- feat entirely to Jenny. He is too am- bitious and clever a politician not to make strenuous efforts to secure as his own ally a campaign worker of such exceptional quality. | He has been conducting a very spe- clal and personal campaign lately, with much more chance of victory than he had when he was running for the Legislature, for Jenny is no longer his political foe. In fact, it locks very much as if she would man- age his next campaign. Copyright, 1913, Um Frank A.

ICTURE to yourself a home of the utmost refinement on the outskirts of Boston,” ex- p plained the de luxe book salesman, I mount the long, dark porch and touch the button. A butler ushers me into the sumptuous parlor. I give my card to the menial, who bears it away on a tiny silver tray. Soon there is rustling of silken garments and a statuesque woman of matchless beauty stands in the doorway. She regards me sweetly for a moment. “Books?” she inquires. No, madame,’ I hasten to assure her. ‘I have called to interest you in a tour of the world. You can view the great and beautiful places of the earth, can visit the out-of-way places where the ordinary traveler never goes—al] from your easy chair. As an illustration 1 will take you on a three-minute trip through Morocco.’ Then I bring out the prospectus and begin to show the pretty pictures. This shows the seaport city of Tan- gier. Here we have a portion of the harbor. The manner of loading cattle on board ship, tying a rope around their horns and hoisting them up. Here we stand in the busy public market. And now we will journey to the edge of the desert.’ Thus I chatter on after the usual way of creating interest in the books I show. PDO you know, I was thinking of taking a trip over there,’ she replies. Here you have it right in your easy chair,’ I say. ‘A tour of the world from your easy chair. Think what that means in this busy day and age! Think of the trouble and fatigue I can save you! Think of the money it would cost you to make this trip—and of the time it would consume, Here you have it right at your elbow. Five dollars down and $ a month.’ ‘**7’4 dearly love to have them, but my husband forbade my buying any more books.’ But these are not books, madame,’ I return, handing her the order blank. ‘These are tours of the world. Sign your name an the dotted line. You want them.’ „ ‘Well, as long as they are not books Tul take them. Can I pay cash?’ I assure her that while it is unusual, I will take cash in full. “She writes me out a check and the next day the set is delivered. I'll bet my job against a Mexican cigarette that when they arrived the lady had not waked up to the fact that they were books after all.“ * * | CHOOSING YOUR OCCUPATION Letter carriers are em- ployed under the rules of the United States Civil Service Commission.

That's because rowing and beer usu- Under present con- ditions, however, officials of the county would prevent the sale of beer on Sunday. That means that no rowing would be possible on that day. It isn’t that the oarsmen themselves require the amber fiuid, but the sale of that which is cold and foamy is al- most essential to the success of a re- gatta. The oarsmen, at least the Southwest- ern oarsmen, do not care to go to Peoria again next season. There's no guarantee that the course opposite the Raden Rowing Club will be ideal on the date of the regatta. For that reason the logical course is at Creve Coeur Lake. Lost 88 in 1904.

The officials are for holding r c saying RESIDENT HEDGES of the Browns and Branch Rickey, secretary of tho club, are in Montgomery endeavoring to gain control of the Mont- gomery team of the Southern League. Many persons are mystified as to the motive of the St. Louis owner in desiring this club. While we are not wont to betray con- fidences, we feel a certain duty in tak- irg thé public on the inside in this matter. The fact is that, having two teams under his control, if the Browns lose favor with the fans here, Mr. Hedges will be able to substitute the Montgomery club, sending the locals to the Southern League. The plan is no new oné. In the past the St. Loufs management occasionally sent down for sections of the Houston (Tex.) club, whenever the local outfit seemed unable to hang onto eighth Place in the American League. It was found the Texas League was able to hold its own. quite as well as the Browns. 9 * „ Aha! Here's the Reason. M* HEDGES explains his attitude toward the Montgomery team by thet he has interest in four or five of that club’s players and he is merely desirous of protecting his rights, in case the club should be sold to an outsider. “Protecting” said rights, in the past, has proven about as useful as posting a sentry over a Swiss cheese.

HIS staff reminds one very much of ‘the oft-toutéd curve-twisting bunch owned by the Cardinals a few years back. Writers of the time were fond of referring to the best pitching staff in the League.” The outfit included Raymond, Lush, MeGlynn,' Beebe, Fromme, Karger and Sallee. Of this “great pitching staff“ not a single one, with the possible exception of Sum Sallee, has ever since deserved to be called a truly first-class, consist- ent, reliable pitcher.

But the great“ part still remains to be proven. * * * Are Players Irresponsible ? HERE has been a hint out that some St. Louis players are dis- couraged over conditions on the club— which team does not matter—and are not taking the best of pains with their work and condition. That's one of the cases where the baseball club oWner really can claim the public’s sympathy. When owners sup- port baseball players at expensive hotels for one entire month in spring, actually PAYING MEN TO ACQUIRE CONDI- TION THEY THEMSELVES SHOULD BE MADE RESPONSIBLE FOR, they have a reasonable right to expect their hirelings to do their best to keep the physica) shape thus obtained. But the pains expended frequently are wasted, when the player lapses into late hours and gadding habits. If he is taxed with the matter he usually sulks, “lays down“ or crosses his teammates in play. ¢ * Hey! Stop Thief! ; / Pram probably do not stop to think that such actions are equiv- alent to reaching into the club owner's pocket and abstracting money. He is paid to deliver certain goods, or to do his best to, and if he takes the pay without delivering, he is getting cash on false prétenses. Players, however, because of the han- dicaps that are thrown about the dis- posal of their services, are prone to re- gard any chance to do“ a club owner as legitimate. The magnate is “prey” for the player, if the latter can get away With the ill.“ A team made up of players imbued with this idea will never get anywhere. * * * "Twas a Sizable Gathering. R.

MONTGOMERY, Ala., July 25.—Presi- dent Robert L. Hedges and Secretary Branch Rickey of the St. Louis Browns departed from Montgomery last night after what is claimed to have been a fruitless interview, or series of them, with certain local business men who held an option on the baseball franchise ot this city in the Southern League. When the conference adjourned on Wednesday night it was stated that practically a complete understanding had been reached and the deal would be consummated Thursday morning. Thurs- day morning at 11 o’clock the conference was resumed, but Hedges immediately announced a changed front, and stated that he did not care to become finan- cially interested in the franchise with local business men. Hedges has a working agreement with the Montgomery club for an option, or first choice, of any one player on the Montgomery team each year. Because of the apparent close alliance between Montgomery and St. Louis, there have been various rumors that Manager Dobbs would be given the man- agement of the Browns next season. Dobbs denies strenuously that any such thing is in contemplation, however. — eꝙ—8 — Smith Will Not Be Fined.

The visiting clubs get half of each general admission price that’s the bleachers—apd 25 cents on ail pavilion and grand stand seats. In- asmuch as there are no bleacher seats to speak of in the Polo Grounds, the Cardinals got virtually 25 cents for each of the 50,000 fans who paid to see the five-game series, That nets about $12,300 in round fig- ures. Koney’s salary is said to be $6250, while Huggins’ annual income from the managerial graft is réputed to Fhe $7500. Their combined salaries total $13,750 for the season. However, the income from this one series in New York virtually wipes out this heavy expendi- ture, giving the club a chance to pick up enough in the other 149 games to pay Magee, Mowrey, Harmon, President Britton, Secretary Seekamp, Dick Shaner and the other high-priced attaches.

C. Parke defeating Maurice McLoughlin, three gets to two, while R. Norris Williams defeated C. P. Dixon, three to two. McLoughlin was badly off his form in the start of the play against Parke. He had nothing but his service and excel- lent judgment on out“ balls. It took 18 games to play the. first set, Mc- Loughlin being rather fortunate to win, 10—8. Both men made 68 points in this set. McLoughlin broke badly in the second set and let Parke carry it to deuce, and finally won, 7-5. Parke also won the third set, 6-4, but in the fourth Me- Loughlin played his best tennis, win- ning, 6—1. The effort was a dying one and the steadiness of his older op- ponent won in the final set, 6—4. Williams’ games were 8&6, 3-6, 6—2, 16, 7—5. It was nip and tuck with this pair throughout, the last set going to deuce. The victory gives each nation one point of the three néeded to win the trophy. Saturday Hackett and McLoughlin will oppose the British team in doubles. This match is considered close, by experts, and its result uncertain. The international title cannot be de- termined until Monday, when the sec- ond pair of matches in singles will be played. McLoughlin will meet Dixon, while Williams will oppose Parke.
