FOWL AT FEAST A GIFT Boarder Who Helped Cook Meal Tells of a Powder From Blue - Package Used by Her. Mrs. Myrtle B. Neff, 2% years old, of £29 South Wighteenth street, is dead, Mrs. Margaret McWilliams, 24 years old, is at the city hospital in a serious con- dition, and Mrs. Neff’s husband, Harry, and Lee Trimble, a United States Ex- press Co. clerk, are ill as a result of eating a supper of chicken and dump- lings, Sunday night. An autopsy will be made to determine whether ptomaine poisoning caused death or whether some poison as contained in a small paper Package, the contents of which were used for baking powder. Trimble and Mrs. McWilliams and her husband, John F. McWilliams, are . boarders at the Neff home. The chicken which formed part of the dinner was furnished by Trimble, who said that it had escaped from a coop in the ex- press company’s office at Union Sta- tion. The dumplings cooks with the chicken were made by Mrs, McWil- liams. Mrs. Neff's 5-months-ola son, Ralph, Was asleep in an adjoining room when the meal was served. Neff told a Post-Dispatch reporter Monday that Trimble several] times had brought chickens home from the express office. Stands in Granite Pot. The one he brought Saturday night was killed at noon Sunday, and dressed and put in the icebox. It was stewed at 4 p. m., and left standing in a granite Ware pot until 6 p. m., when Trimble returned from work. Mrs. McWilliams volunteered to make the dumplings which were stewed with the chicken. The other foods served at the meal were mashed potatoes, banan- as and coffee. When the supper was served, Mrs. McWilliams, according to Neff and to her own statement later at the city hos- Pital, saig@ «be was not hungry and did not care to eat, Four Sick After Meal. After tasting the stew. Mrs. Neff said to Mre. McWilliams that the dumplings had a queer taste. Mrs. Mc- Willlams then consented to taste the dumplings. She ate part of one and drank a cup of coffee. Neff and Trim- ble each ate three pieces of chicken and several dumplings. Both drank coffee and Neff at a banana. Mrs. Neff ate heartily of the chicken and dumplings and mashed potatoes. As they were rising from the table all four became ill. Dr. F. W. Lester of 3455 Shenandoah avenue was called. He found Mrs. Neff and Mrs. McWil- liams unconscious and worked over them until 11 p. m., when he departed, saying they seemed to be out of danger. At 4 a. m. Neff found his wife again unconscious. Dr. Lester was recalled and he advised that. Mrs. Neff and Mrs. McWilliams be hurried to the city os- pital. Mrs. Neff died a few minutes after arriving there. Tells of Making Dumplings. Neff and Trimble remained under treatment at home. Mrs. McWillams, though not out of danger, was in a eondition to make a short statement at the city hospital Monday. “I made the dumplings,’ she said. “When I took a baking powder can from the kitchen shelf I found it was nearly empty. I told Mrs. Neff there was not enough baking powder. Mrs. Neff then handed me a little flat blue paper pack- age and said: “*This is baking powder. the dumplings.’ I did. “When I went to the table I wasn’t hungry because I had eaten at a rest- aurant late in the afternoon. I ate part of one dumpling and some of the chicken gravy. “T noticed at once that the dumplings had a queer taste. It was a peculiar salty flavor with an added bitter taste.”’ City hospital physicians say they have been unable to determirie the exact na- ture of the poison. Thus far, they say, Mra. McWilliams has been free from the convulsions which usually accom- pany ptomaine poisoning. EIGHT-NINTHS OF SALARY TOO MUCH TO GIVE WIFE Alton Judge Frees Prisoner When Woman Asks for $8 of Husband's 89 Wage. Magistrate Lessner of Alton, Monday | ruled that one-ninth of a man's weekly salary is not a sufficient allowance to him. Gus Wise, a quarry worker earning $9 a week, was charged with disturbing his wife's place. Mra. Wise said she would withdraw the prosecution if Wise would promise to give her $8 of his salary every Saturday. “I will listen to no such proposition,” said Judge Lessner. “The defendant is @ischarged. I would advise him to go to Sweah and get another job and leave his wife to follow him or stay here as she may see fit.

NEFF ACCOUNTANTS FIND > FIANCES OF EAST 6 ST. LOUISIRREGULAR Report Presented-to Council by Mayor Emphasizes Discrepan- cies Exposed by Post-Dispatch. FURTHER INQUIRIES URGED Experts Say Investigations Were Limited and Should Be Much More Extensive. - Mayor Chamberlin of East St. Louis Monday afternoon told a Post-Dispatch reporter that later in the afternoon he would send to the City Council a fe: port of expert accountants showing fhe condition of East St. Louis finances. This report shows discrepancies in the city account even greater’ than those shown by the Post-Dispatch two months ago. The accountants’ report shows: 1. A discrepancy of $3741.61 in one special improvement fund. 2. That three bonds of another im- provement fund, aggregating $1500, had been paid twice. 3. That six redeemed bonds are missing from the files of the city. 4. That another bond: issue of $9900 was in duplicate and that the duplicate bonds were signed by, city officials and to all appearances are regular and could have been sold. 5. That a check from the Southern Traction Co. for $1000 in settlement of special taxes was not presented for payment, although two years old, and that the taxes were not paid by other means. 6. That many citizens of promi- nence have been permitted to escape payment of taxes. 7. That a large of paid bond coupons have not been canceled in accordance with law, but are per- mitted to remain in various offices, The accountants’ report says that these could be raid a second time and that the practice affords an op- portunity for wholesale robbery of the city. lAmited in Investigations, The report explains Yat the ac- countants were emplos only to make an examination for the purpose of pre- paring statements showing the condli- tion of the revenue fund and special funds at May 3, 191s, and that the em- ployment did not call for an audit or verification of the accounts, with the ex- ception of the disbursements of the spe- cial improvement bonds redeemed. The report says that, in view of the discoveries made, there snould be a com- plete audit of the Treasurer's accounts, an audit of all coupon transactions, and an audit of the Special Tox Collector's office. These recommendations were made to Mayor Chamberlin July 2. He has taken no action regarding them. The acocuntants state in their report that former Treasurer E. Fred Gerold promptly “‘made good’’ the full amount of the discrepancy of $3741.61 when it was called to his attention. number Mrs Maraarer MEWitiiams FAIR SKIES, NOT MUCH TEMPERATURE CHANGE — TEM Jery ATURES. ] , VWentesdes*s Temperatures.

The accountants found that there were cutstanding bonds tu the amonut of $3600 in excess of the amount shown by the hooks. These bonds were issued to the Murphy Construction Co. and had ac- crued interest of $141.61, making a total of $3741.61. The contractor’s bill was e2754.01. Gerold, as Treasurer, turned over to the construction company the tonds and accrued interest coupons and his check for $12.04 to make up the total of the contractor's bill. Bonds Not Accounted For. The accountants found that Gerold had entered on his books the payment of $3754.01 to the contractors, but had not entered on his books the reecipt by him from the city of the bonds and interest amounting to $3741.61.

Car Stripped of Tirea. One of the robberies for which detec- tives say they have enough evidence to warrant prosecution of these men, was'! the theft, July 4, of an auto belonging |! to W. EF. Roberts, broker, 5773 McPher- son avenue. This machine was stolen from Fourth and Olive streets July 24. It was found Aug. 18 at Thompson, a village near Mexico, Mo. Another theft was that of the car of Henry Langenberg of 49 Westmoreland place, a member of the Merchants’ Ex- change. This car was taken from Fourth and Pine streets Aug. 8 and was found abandoned and stripped of its tires and tools in front of 315 Emma avenue the next day. Charles H. Hill in front of whose home the auto was left, said four men drove it there. Siolen Automobtile Sold. Another theft was that of the car of Dr. Daniel H. Hope of Cape Girardeau Mo., was here on professional business. The machine was taken from Seventh and Olive streets July 8 and was sold several weeks later to Dr. J. Scott Wolff of Festus, Mo. The police gay Dr. Wolff has identified Joseph Murphy as one of the men who sold him the machine and a photograph of Thomas Murphy as that of another. Another theft was that of the car of A. R. Byrd Jr., of 54288 Delmar boule- vard, which was taken at 4:0 p. m. Broadway and Olive street. Half an hour later this car ran down Stan- islaus Loisel, aged 7, of 118s Lesperance street, at Broadway ‘nd Gratiot street. The boy was badly hurt, but the men in the car didn’t stop. Theft in Front of Bank. 16 an automobile belonging to the trick Co. was stolen from in front of the Central Nationa! Bank Building, and this theft the police believe they have traced to the same gang. It was stripped of tires and tools and abandoned on Natural Bridge road half a mile north of Man chester avenue June 16 an Leo Landau was stolen at Grard nues. Landau leaped longing to Carl J. Vogel, 3225 Longfel- low boulevard, and started in pursuit. After Vogel had shot several times at a man in the stolen car, !{t halted and Thomas Murphy was found in it, ac- cording to the police. Won Sympathy, Released. Afterward Landau declined to prose- cute and Murphy was released. He won Landau’s sympathy by saying he was drunk and was only going to take a little ride, with no intention of keeping the machine. While the police at the time had an idea that these thefts were perpetrated by the same gang, tney had no infor- mation as to who these members were. The first clew was discovered when the Langenberg auto was recovered. it was a riding whip, on which Detectives went and determined merely who from Julv Hivdraulic Press also automobile belonging to 5646 Waterman avenue and Magnolia ave- into a car be- of In were the initials T. M. through their records to hunt for Thomas Murphy because he had the same initials. When the Roberts car was found, however, the police had something more tangible than a suspicion. The machine was fitted with tires that had been taken from the Langenberg machine. Furthermore, a wallet full of papers had been left in the Roberts car, and among the papers was a photograph of Thomas Murphy. Detectives say they discovered that the men took their autos to towns where there were fairs, conventions, etc., and used them as taxicabs. Among other towns they worked in this way, accord- ing to the police, are Macoupin, IIL, Festus and Mexico. The detectives lost trace of the men after they abandoned the Roberts’ car at Thompson. They say the gang learned it was being followed and scattered. Arrested With Hobo Gang. Thomas Murphy, who ts also known as Joseph Kenney, was one of a gang of alleged hoboes arrested at Eureka.

LOUIS POST-DISPATCH. a oa 26 OWNERS REJECT MINERS’ PROPOSALS AS TO Tht UNION Companies Tell Board of Media- tion They Will Agree to Arbi- trate Wage Question Only. CLASH OF ARMS FEARED -ompanies Hold 4000 Guns in Readiness—Foreigners Believed to Have Dynamite. > By a Staff Correspondent of the Post- : Dispatch. FARMINGTON, Mo., Aug. 2.—The first public conference between the five , lead mining companies and representa-_ tives of the 5$™=0 striking miners In the | Flat River district was held this morn- ing in the presence and under the aus- pices of the State Board of Mediation end Arbitration. Recognition of the union, which is a branch of the Western Federation of Miners,. at once came to the front as the chief issue between the two sides. ' The men’s demand for recognition of the union, as set fcrth at the beginning of the strike, means that the employers shall retain from the wages of union employes each month the smount of their dues and forward the money to the head officials of the organization; that no union man Can be discharged except upon approval of the Grievance Comrrittee of the organi- gation, and that all nonunion men em- - ployed by the companies must become members of ‘the union within 30 days or be discharged. W. D. Davidson, who did all the talk- ing for the miners, said the matter of wages could be arbitrated, but that the men would not yield in their demand for recognition of their union. This, he said, was considered by all the men as the more itmportant part of their de- mand. A. J. Meier of St. Louis, representing the mine operators, said the companies had decided not to recognize the union, and that this decision was final. “No Loss by Recognition.” Davidson, replying to this decla- ration, said the mine operators had nothing taglose by recognition ofthe union, and that they would not find the union trying to run their busi- ness. He then added: “There is no telling what may en- Bue unless we arrive at a_i settle- ment.” There has been much uneasiness here mror the possibility of an armed clash between the foreign element of the mi- ners and the mine owners. The mines are surrounded by stockades and these inclosures are manned by watchmen. The mines have 1000 riot guns and 3000 repeating rifles, with thousands of rounds of ammunition. The foreigners are believed to be in possession of much dynamite. Agreement Rejected by Men. The board met primarily for the pur- pose of receiving a report from the miners on the rejection of the compa- nies’ proposal to settle the strike by an increase of 20 cents a day in wages. This plan was submitted by the boara to the men, and was voted down unan- imously by acclamation, Saturday, at meetings of the six local unions at Flat River, Bonne Terre, Leadwood, Desloge, Elvins and Herculaneum. It is now charged by the employers that the vote was taken after several inflammatory speeches, and that the result, while agreeable to the Socialistic element in charge of the meeting, did not represent the calm judgment of a majority of the miners. They say the vote should have been by ballot, to give the conservative men an opportun- ity to express their judgment without incurring the censure of those more impetuous. ’ This point was emphasized by Arthur Bb. Shepley of St. Louis, who spoke in behalf of the operators. He said the cperators would not consent to recog- nize a union which decided such a mat- ter as the settlement proposition by a rising vote. Objects to Federation. Meier voiced the operators’ objection to the Western Federation of Miners which has become well known througn several strikes in the Rocky Mountain region, and the headquarters of which are in Denver. He said the companies might feel dif- ferently about recognizing a union which was chartered in Missouri, and was a creature of this State. He would be willing to advise his company, the St Louls Smelting and Refining Co., to recognize such a union, he, said. Miner Pieads for Peace. Davidson said he could not see that the location of headquarters, or the fact of incorporation in a particular state, made any difference. He _ said the unions were not trying to deprive the companics of a fair profit, and that if the companies would submit figures to show that they could not grant the re- quested wage increase and continue to make a fair profit, the men would give due consideration to figures. No sun showing had been made, he sald. ' He urged the operators to recede from their attitude of non-recognition, and paid that up to this time there had been ho personal! ill-feeling, that the men had been orderly and the companies had acted frankly and without showing malice. ' Meler spoke of the operation of pumps, to keep the mines from being flooded, nd said his company had its engineers, uperintendents and office employes at + task, some of them working hours a day at this unaccustomed toi) Soon, he said, these men would be “all 3 and if their place was not taken by thers, the mines would be deluged. He ked that the unions permit some of eir men to work at the pumps. : Aska for Secret Ballet. -B. H.

Meier said that the company hesi- tated to precipitate a possible con- flict by putting outside men to work at the pumps, but that the compa- nies felt something would have to be done to protect their property. It has been freely predicted that the employment of strike-breakers, in any department of the work, would start trouble with the Slavonian and Hunga- rman element among the strikers, who are Wholly dependent on the mines for a livelihood. With the miners who afe residents of this region and who can re- turn to farms and live there until the strike is settled, the situation is not so acute. . To Begin Arbitration. Chairman Dysart of the Board of Arbitration and Mediation, said that, as the board had not been able to ac- complish the task of mediation, there was nothing left for it to do but to sit as a board of arbitration, make a pro- posal for settlement and submit the proposal to both sides and to Gov. Major. Neither the board has any power to enforce the accept- ance of its terms by either side. Dav- ldson expressed approval of this plan, and said he had no wish to break off negotiations.

Gerold told the accountants when they called his attention to the discrepancy, they report, that before its discovery he told the Mayor and a clerk in the Comp- troller’s office that his official cash was “unaccountably over’ about $2700, and that he would hold that amount pend- ing the examination of the accounts. After he had accounted for the $3741.61, he contended that his personal cash was “unaccountably short about $1000.” Bonds Redeemed Twice. In going over the pond records, the accountants found that three bonds of the Missouri Avenue, Front street to Vandalia Railroad Imporvement, for $500 each had been twice paid. They found a record that a warrant had been is- sued to former Treasurer Frank Holten for the payment of these bonds, Nos. 2, 42 and 62, in July 1909, and that another warrant had been issued to Gerold for the payment of the same bonds in April, 1913. The bonds were found and showed that they had been canceled April 7, 1913. Comptroller Rodenberger told the ac- countants, they reported, ‘‘that he could not understand how these bonds could have been redeemed by Mr. Gerold un- less they had been surrendered to the Comptroller's office without being can- celed and were subsequently taken from his files.”’ ‘“‘We requested Mr. Gerold to advise us to whom he made the payment for these bonds’ the report continues, “and he stated that he would look the matter up and let us know. Mr. Gerold has inot to date (time of preparation of that part of the report) complied with our request,.’”’ In a postscript, the acountants say that July 22 they again called on Gerold for a statement and that he gave this explanation: “The Comptroller's clerk, who kept my cash book, kept it in such a way that I could never tell the amount of the cash balance except at the end of the month, and about two or three months ago, after the book- keeping for the month had been completed, the cash book showed a balance of about $1609 or $1700 in excess of the actual balance in the bank. “I told the Comptroller's clerk that there must be an error in the accounts somewhere, which may have resulted from a disbursement having been made for which I did not re. ceive credit. A search was then made of the warrants paid and bonds re- deemed and three uncanceled bonds for $500 each were found in the Comptroller's office, and from the fact that these bonds were uncan- celed it was assumed that they had been paid by me and that I did not receive credit, and the failure to give me credit accounted for the difference between the cash book balance and the bank balance. Issued Voucher to Himself. “I then made, or caused to be made, a voucher in favor of myself, which at the time appeared neces- sary to relmburse my cash account. I do not admit any shortage or im- proper use of these bonds and the matter is now In the shape in which it was originally, and when I pro- pose to make good the amount at this time I do so because I don't want a cloud on my offietal actions.

The story told by the policemen is one- sided, in that they have only Hayes’ version. The three men whom Hayes intrusted with his money have not ap- peared to tell the entertaining tale which they, from their different stand- point, might relate. Hayes told the po- licemen that— He fell in with a stranger near Union Station, Friday morning, and the man took him out to Vandeventer place to see the fine residences. At the entrance of the place another man came up and asked the way to the Southern Hotel. The three walked toward Olive street and the stranger proposed that thev match coins.

The third man, when told of the coin matching. said Hayes must be “That is,”” he added, dition that he has $1500 of his Of course, good faith. he must show that could have paid the bet if he had lost.” Hayes admitted that he had not the money with him, but said he would get own. it. He agreed to meet the others at! the game place Sunday morning, and when the time came he was there with the $1500, in $20 bills, stuffed in his coat pocket. Between Friday and Sunday Hayes had been to Fort Scott, Kan., 338 miles from St. Louis, money out of a bank. Waliting for Remittance. While two of the men counted his money, the third asked him to step out into the hall. When he went back into the room, the two men had gone, and not one of the yellow-backed bills was in sight. When he stepped back into the hall, the third man had dis- appeared. Hayes says the first man he met Intréduced himself as George J. An- derson. A heavy set man giving that name took a room at the Beers, and reserved another room for two friends, whose names he said were Bailey and Adams. One of the latter two is be- lieved to have been the same man who rented a room at the Rluegrass Hotel, giving another name. Hayes says one men told him he was at the Bluegrass. Hayes is staying at the Y. M. C. A.,, and will go back to Greenfield as soon as a remittance of the small remnant of his Fort Scott bank account reaches him.

She said she supposed then that she was about third or fourth and was amazed, after she had been helped into the boat, to learn that the laurels were hers. The race, which was the club’s second annual event of the kind, was witnessed by hundreds of persons who lined the river benks from the starting point, in front of the South Side Fishing Club, to the end in front of the rowing club.

The winner started with a crawl stroke and kept it up for the first quarter of a mile, until its speed had brought. her well out in front. ‘Then she took a less fatiguing side stroke the rest of the course. “The side stroke is an easy one,”’ she said. ‘‘I found I was able to hold my own with it and took things easy. “Although I didn’t know we were skating. She had trained hard for this race for two weeks, most of her train- ing being in the pool at Fairground Park. Occasionally she swam in the Meramec and once or twice in the Mis- sissippi. Miss Wirfs swims all of the usual strokes except the trugdeon, which she is learning. She began swimming in a small pool six years ago, and it has become her favorite pastime.

HEART ON RIGHT SIDE Discovery Made When Boy Is Run Over by Ice Wagon. BROCKTON, Maas., Aug. 25.—Keen as is the interest of surgeons in the ease of Henry Dickerman, 15-year- old Brockton hospital patient, whose heart has been forced from its nor- mal place to his right side, it is no keener than the interest of people who reside near the boy’s home. Several weeks ago the boy was run over by an ice wagon. His ribs were crushed and the chances of his recovery seemed slight. But he fought the pain, and today was taken to his home for the remainder of his con- valescence. Surgeons say the heart will re- main on the right side and that the boy will regain his strength.

PAINTING ON GRAIN OF CORN, LOST IN ’69, FOUND Advertisements Abroad Recover Tiniest Work for Camden (N..J.) Artist. CAMDEN, N. J., Aug. 2.—William Schultz of Camden, N. J., despite a life- time spent in painting subjects In he- roic size, has the distinction of having made the smcllest landscape painting in the world. It was executed on a grain of corn and the painter has now recov- ered it. after having lost possession of the picture for 40 years, in which it has traveled through Europe, attracting wide attention. Having lost track of the picture, which he made tn 1869, when he was 19 years old, Schultz decided recently to try to recover it. He advertised in several for- eign newspapers, with the result that the landscape came to him in its origi- nal frame a few days ago. The grain of corn used came from an ear that Schultz plucked on the estate of James Buchanan, fifteenth President of the United States, at Wheatland, Pa. He had gone there to attend the ex- President’s funeral and had plucked the ear of corn as a souvenir. THE DAY IN CONGRESS WASHINGTON, Aug. 3.

Schuetz an East St. Louis motor cycle patrolman, when riding a motor cycle known to the East Side po- ~Mee as the “hoodoo” machine, because geven patrolmen of the cycle squad have been aeriously injured while riding it in the last two years, received injuries Sunday which may cause his death. The machine crashed into a’fence at the Fielleville fairgrounds when Schuetz was making a speed test preparatory to en- tering a five-mile race.* His wife had urged him not to enter the contest. . BSchuetz’s skull wae fractured, his lower jaw was broken, and he was injured in- ternally. He was taken to St. Eliza- beth’s Hospital. Follows Her Husband, Mrs. Schuetz recalled Sunday morning to her husband his former injuries re- ceived While riding the machine and the accidents in which other patrolmen had figured and asked him to remain at home. When he left, saying he was go- ing to Belleville to compete in the races, which were given under the auspices of the Hast Side Motor Cycle Club, his wife followed him on a street car in the . Roepe of inducing him to stay out of the race. Schuetz had been takey from the park in an ambulance a ff * minutes before she arrived. She the \went to the hospital to aid tn nursing him. ; Schuetz was one of the first policemen to be hurt while riding the “hoodoo” ear. Fifteen months ago he lost contro! of the machine and collided with an au- tomobile driven by Dr. O. J. Culbertson of East St. Louis. His skull was frac- tured and his chin Was broken. He was in a hospital nine months and in that time a dozen operations were performed “afore he recovered. Lose Control of Machine. Puen he was in the hospital, Steve Hess, who succeeded him, lost control of the machine and his right leg was broken when the car crashed into a post. Members of the police force then be- gan to refer to the machine as a “hoo- doo”’ and several refused appointments to the cycle squad when they learned they would be assigned to ride the un- lucky car. John Fitzpatrick was the next to be hurt. He fell off when the steering gear became loose and the machine ran into a ditch. John Barlow, who later became Night Chief of Police, and is now under suspension, then took charge of the machine and a few days later fell off and was seriously injured. Henry Lewis, his successor, was thrown off when the machine became @mmanageable for some unknown rea- fon, and was painfully bruised. motor cycle then was pronounced top- heavy by expérts and was sent to garage for repairs. Machine Badly Wrecked. Earl Prosser was assigned to the car when it came frgm the repair shop. He did very well with it for a few weeks, but one day it got beyond his control and ran down an embankment. His right leg was broken. Elmer Griffin next took the machine, and a few days later he was on the injured list, having lost control of the machine and bumped into a tree. Schuetz returned to duty three months ago and has since had charge of the - heedoo machine. He asked Chief Payne for permission to compete in the races at Belleville. He had sped twice around the track when he lost control and the machine collided with a fence post. Sev- eral spectators standing near the fence were thrown down and bruised.

Philips and several] companions crossing the river from Delhi to Taylorsport at daybreak. When they neared this shore the skiff capsized. Philips’ companions swam for the shore, but he could not swim, and would have drowned had not Zurelby leaped into the water, caught Philips by his collar and fought a stiff current back to shore. Zurelby went home, and was at sup- per with several friends when Philips appeared. He was carrying a _ rifle. “You saved me, didn’t you?’ witnesses say he said. *“*Yes,’’ replied the old man. Without another word Philips ts alleged to have shot his rescuer in the brain. He turned then and ran for the river. A posse pursued him, and fired several shots, but he escaped. The only explanation is Philips was made insane by his narrow escape from drowning.

By Associated Press. WASHINGTON, Aug. %.—Slavery in the full meaning of the word exists throughout the Philippines, even in the city of Manila, and peonage is general in the islands, according to a special report Commissioner Dean Worcester has made to the insular Government. It has not been received by the War De- partment, but copies are in the hands of other officials. Filipinos in parts of the islands, he- says, commonly capture children and sell them into slavery for profit, some being sent to China, where they are dreseed in the native fashion. Some children have been enticed from their homes by slave agents upon promises of scholarships in schools and some of those, in an instance which Worcester reports in detail, were sold, and others were farmed out for money. Giri Bought for a Cloak, He cites the case of a 18-year-old girl bought for some pigs and a cloak. The Supreme Court of the islands released the slave trader, on the ground that no crime had been committed, because no physical force had been used. This one case Worcester says, has blocked other slavery prosecutions, The Philippine Assembly has blocked lawé for the suppression of the traffic, he says, because many of its members came from provinces where slavery flourishes. One of his reports on the traffic, he says, lies tabled in the Phil- ippine Assembly. Difficult to Get Facts, Worcester declares he had great dif- ficulty in getting facts of slave cases and intimates that reports are withheld by the officers of the Philippine constabu- lary. He cites the case of a Philippine assemblyman caught owning a slave girl in Manila, and says: “I could obtain conclusive evidence of a hundred, a thousand, 0,000 of them, but why multiply cases. It is simply a case of time and work.” He charges that Philippine Assembly- men maintain peonage on their own farms. Stove, Range and Furnace Repairs. A G.

Women, some young and some mid- dle aged, former pwuplis of the Visita- tion Convent, filled the chapel of the Belt avenue institution Monday morn- ing, to attend the mass in honor of Sis- ter Anastasia’s golden jubilee. She is assistant to the superior. Some of Sister Anastasia’s associates in the religious lUfe told their visitors how, in the 60 years of service which were being commemorated, the faithful nun hed left the convent building but three times. The first time was when, with others of the order, she rode from the oki convent at Nineteenth street and Cass avenue to inspect the work on the pres- ent building, then being erected in Cab- anne. The second time was when, 71 years ago, the removal to the present building took place. The third time was when, 10 years ago, she went to Ta- coma, Wash., for a three years’ stay in a school there, to which her services had been loaned. Pontifical mass was ceteDdrated at 10 a. m. in the chapel, the celebrant be- ing Bishop Hennessy of Wichita, Kan. He has been acquainted with Sister Anastasia for many years, and came to St. Louis for the observance of her jubilee. He was assisted by a number of St. Louts priests, including Fathers O’Rourke, Morgan, Finan, O’Brien and Kennedy and Father Tuohy of Mont- gomery City. Many gifts of gold coins, books, re- ligtous objects, palms and flowers were received by Sister Anastasia. Before she entered the oH Visitation Con- vent, 50 years ago, she was Miss Mary Helen Dougherty of Edina, Mo. G@rand-Leader Zatertaine Employes at Forest Park HigWands.

Because it impeaches nut only-tneir fidelity to the trust im their hands, but their moral courage as well. It implies that they are too cowardly to loot the offices before asking the people to approve a bond issue for bridge approaches, but will loot them after such approval has been obtained. That statement calls for prompt, emphatic de- uial, for the honor of the rien whom it accuses and for the honor of St. Louis. = = _-_ a a A ST. LOUIS BUILDING FOR ST. LOUIS By William 8. B. Dana, Architect and Author. There is a surprising lack in our great cities of facilities for scientific reception and hospital- ity for the army of strangers coming to their doors. Persons arriving at depots or wharves are, many of them, quite at a loss to plan their time and movements economically while in the city. Station attendants, policemen, taxicab drivers and pedestrians are asked for information and advice; guide books, maps and directories are stu- died, and finally, after the loss of days of time and a great deal of energy, the visitor has suc- ceeded in making at most a hazy and unsatisfac- tory acquaintance with the place. St. Louis, despite the lessons of her World’s Fair, is as deficient as others in this respect. Why should she not have a permanent St. Louis Building opposite the entrance to Union Sta- tion, containing all helpful information of the city and its activities, so that persons from any part of the world could go there immediately upon ar- rival for introduction to and enlightenment of the city? In such a building could be shown, as is done in foreign cities, a raised model of the entire city, with the different sections named, as well as the great thoroughfares connecting them. This should occupy a commanding central position in the form of a level table, round or octagonal. A wall map of the same proportions, with the streets and parks plainly marked, would be an in- teresting and valuable companion piece to the mode}. Another great wall map might show exclusively the street railway system, the direction and movements of cars being vividly displayed by an electric-lighting arrangement. A separate map of the business district giving the location of the important buildings, and ac- companied by giant photographs; also a diagram of the meshwork of railroads, showing on a large scale the connection of St. Louis with all other cities and states, should make part of the collec- tion. In another room, or possibly rotunda, might be placed a series of paintings of the city’s finest panoramas, its parks, handsomest residence sec- tions; also the architectural beauties, public and historical buildings and monuments. Wealth and health statistics, comparative and Britain, ‘absolute; statistics of growth, commerce, manu- facturing, education and religion could be pre- sented on charts in a big and yet artistic manner. A building such as described would serve as a directory in architectural form, which would be of mutual benefit and enlightenment to all t?s city’s interests on the one hand, and those of its visitors on the other. LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE Car Service in Walnut Park. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I nave read with a great deal of interest the complaint of “Civis,” in last evening’s Post-Dis- patch, and am surprised at the statement he makes. I am now, and have been for a@ num- ber of years, a resident of Walnut Park, and I know from personal experience that the service given us by the United Railways is equal to that of any other line (considering the condi- ticns) in the city. It is our own fault that Union avenue is in such a condition. We have tried for years to get a sewerage system; now that we are get- ting it, “Civis” is wondering why they make a circuit around the opening. Why don’t he walk from Union avenue to where he lives? The cars were running on good time until some Wal- nut Parkite soaped the track. Do you «expect the United Railways company to build up our subdivision? If so, you are mistaken. Why don’t you boost, instead of knock? We have now an ordinance passed to pave Wren avenue. Let us have one for Gilmore and Thekla ave- nues, also, and have granitoid walks Iaid; if not by us, by the city. Then we may be able to say we belong to the city, and not before. We are simply a small’ portion of a large city, we have ideas of our owr WALNUT PARK. BANK OR GOVERNMENT CONTROL. The pith of the amendments to the currency bill urged by the Chicago conference of bankers is the substitution of bank control of banking and cur- rency for Government control. The object of the bankers is to retain and enlarge their control of finances and credits of the country. They are fighting for power. We may safely put aside the minor amendments suggested by the bankers as of slight 4mportance. They are merely concession ammunition. The vital point is the control of the Federal reserve board, the issuance of notes by the banks, not by the Government; a central reserve bank instead of regional reserve banks and the elimination of the compulsory provisions of the present Dill. The reported rejection of the principal amend- ments by the President and the leaders of Con- gress was to be expected. The points in the pres- ent bill to which the bankers object are funda- mental. , They involve a principle of banking and currench to which the administration is pledged. It cof not accept these amendments without stultifying itself. It would violate the principles which its leaders have advocated as the founda- tion of Democratic government. The only issue raised by this attack on the principle of the administration bill is the question of the sanity of the bankers. How can they jus- tify their demand for an abandonment of the vital point and foundation principle of an administra- tion measure in order to serve their interests, as the price of their support? How can they justify their proposal to sacrifice public interests for thei? own private interests in Federal legislation affect- ing all the people? How can they justify asking the Government to betray the people for the bene- fit of the banking interest by turning over control fof currency and credit it to the bankers? The demand on the part of bankers for control of the entire banking, currency and credit system of the country could be paralleled in foolish in- solence only by a demand on the part of the rail- roads to control the Interstate Commerce Com- mission and the regulation of railroads. The adoption of the currency bill as it stands would be a great step towards financial stabil- ity. It embodies the principle of co-operation. It concentrates banking resources and strengthens credits. The bankers must know this. It would have been wise on their part to have accepted the effort of the administration to put American business, including banking, on a sounder basis and co-operated in perfecting and passing the administration bill. It is not the last word in legislation of this kind, but it is a most desirable first step. An overwhelming majority of the people stand with the administration in its currency and bank- ing measure. The bankers should consider public sentiment. They will have to abide by it in the long run. .The Government is not without ample power to deal with recalcitrant banking interests, = = a President Wilson, dealing with Huerta, is giv- ing the world an illustration of. how to use a giant’s strength like a gentleman. = = > of. A ALIGNED WITH CIVILIZATON. “The public moral support of Great France and Japan, and the diplomatic co-opera- tion of Latin. American republics, adds great strength to President Wilson’s Mexican policy of peace and constitutionalism. The wisdom of the policy is now apparent to all intelligent men. It is admitted by all except the wild-eyed jingoes. Insisting upon constitutional government as the only reliable authority capable of enforcing law and order, the President has based the action of the United States upon a fundamental and in- vincible principle. If Huerta finally rejects our program, he isolates himself from the: moral sup- port and sympathy of the civilized world. He avowedly sacrifices the interests of Mexico to his .own personal interests and ambitions. He assumes the role of an opponent to constitutional government and a menace to law and order. Huerta will go far to justify the President’s view of his Government if he refuses to yield to these just proposals. He will invite disaster for himself and the consequences to Mexico which he himself is pretending to avert. It is difficult to conceive of such folly, but, in any event, now the sincerity and good will of the United States will be demonstrated. We have aligned ourselves with civilization. —_—-—— = = — a The one factor in our most notorious criminal case which encourages faith in human nature is the unceasing loyalty of a mother to her son.

AN INTOLERABLE INSULT. One of the best features of a German city gov- ernment is the publication, once a year, of a com- plete list of the city’s employes—name, post of duty, salary, date of appointment, promotions won, if any, and date of expiration of term of office. This data, published separately (as are reports of all the several municipal departments and public utility undertakings), in pamphlet form, and to be had by any citizen at cost of printing, enables citizen-stockholders to check up the public bustness as they do their private af- fairs. Inasmuch as not even the humblest employe of a German city gets his appointment for any other cause than fitness for his task, proven by passing a rigid civil service examination, these lists of German city employes are rolls of honor. These facts are recalled, for consideration by citizens of St. Louis, on reading, in a local Dem- ocratic newspaper, the statement that it is the purpose of Mayor Ktfel and his associates to arbi- trarily remove from office, after the vote on the bridge approach bond issue, every city employe who received appointment from a Democratic ad- ministration or from the administration of former Mayor Kreismann. It is certain some of the men thus menaced with removal are skilled public servants; that their experience in the posts they occupy, gained in the public service, is an asset which the tax- payers are entitled to possess, and that their sum- mary removal, to make place for untrained par- tisan appointees, will be as gross a waste of the municipality's resources as would be the wanton dentruction of tte physical property. ee en eee ie eee even if The Full-Crew Law. fo the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. The people of Missouri should assist the rail- read men in their effort to place another brake- man on the long freight train. Regardless of what the officials may say, we men, who risk our lives every day, know there is danger in only having two brakemen on the 50-car trains. It is not possible to properly inspect such trains with only two men, as the train must be pro- tected in the rear by the flagman, leaving the front man more than he can do. The result is hat many wrecks happen which are due solely to lack of inspection. The railroads have been buying larger en- gines every year and increasing the number of cars per train, but they have never made an in- ‘crease in the number of men to handle the larger trains. There were two brakemen 25 years ago, when the average cars in a train were under °0 The number of brakemen is still two, while the cars have increased to 50 and 60 and, in some cases, 80 and more. Also, the cars have increased in weight about three times. Neither the people of Missouri nor the em- ployes are responsible for the water in the stocks of the railroads, that being the only reason they cannot put on more men and still pay good divi- dends.

NOTES DO IT NOW. Do you boast St. Louis’ climate? Do it now! It is always beet to time it. Anyhow. If you do it In good season There is never any reason Why there should be any treason, Do it now. If Mr. Hedges could trade his luck for that of some other baseball magnates he could afford to give « bie barns DEEPENING THE MISSISSIPPI. It looks as if the man who built the Keokuk Dam had discovered something. They have 65 miles of water above that dam. navigable for vessels drawing !5 feet, and while they were getting that Water they were providing electricity for cities as far away as St. Louis, which is distant by the river some 2% miles. Of course, as a good many people are pointing out, it wouldn’t be possible to build other dams like that all up ani down the river and provide deep water and electric current ad infiinitum. N» great probliom like deepening the Misc- Sissippi is ever that easy. There wou. be an obstacle somewhere. The mau Cooper, who built the Keokuk Dam, would die; or we would drown East St. Louis; or something would happen to Col. Goethals, who understands that sort of thing. We couldn't have dains all the way from the lower river to St. Paul, with deep water between the dams. It looks as if we could, but anybody with a pile driver and a little cement could do it, and that ig not sufficiently complicated. It coulda’t b2 so. Deep water in the Mississippi is an engineering problem. Nevertheless, there is a growing dispo- position to drown all the engineers in that deep water above the Keokuk Dam and build a series of dams like it through the whole length of the river. You can get laughed at by saying sv, but Cooper was laughed at. Remember that. The Keokuk Dam will pay for itself. More dams like it, though, would cos a lot of money. It is not easy to see why’ they should not pay for therm- selves, too, but you understand when you recall that deepening the Mississippi is an engineering problem. That makes the difference. Artist Knowles, who went into the Maine woods dressed like Herr Wand- schnelder’s naked truth, sends out word that he killed a bear on a recent™rosty morning. There must have been a ter- rific struggle for that fur coat. Why couldn't the civilizea nations try President Huerta for the assassination of Madero, and settle it that way?

Quackenbos, specialist in mental and nervous diseases, and pro- fessor emeritus of Columbia University, has said with the authority of an ex- pert: ‘“‘The ear is one of the most deli- cate organs of the human body, but our disregard for Itz well being through sub- mitting to barbarous ‘and altogether un- necessary noises cannot fail to bring about lasting ill effects.

I met hiia —whetr I was first courting Jen- nie. He used to watch us when I called for her to go out walking. He often happened wo meet us- at the street entrance of her mother’s apartment. I knew that he envied me. I xnew that he was jealous; and I knew that he wanted Jennie. He did not get her, however; I looked out for that. We were married inside of a year. Then we tyvok a tittle set of rooms im a comfortable house in West One Hundred and Fourteenth street, and I fondly hoped that I would see him no more. It took us some time to get settled enugly, and then I began to find out things. I learned that a towel-rack is no place for a man to hang his neck- ties, and that closet floors are made to hold masculine shoes and rubbers. Also that a male human, even ff he is mastried, cannot place a wet giass on top of the family icebox without in- curring the wrath of his oerderty spouse. I began to see how much I had lost in the years of my quiet bachelor ex- fetence and to wonder how old Mary. who used to make up my room, had borne with me so iong. But order,car come out chaos; and in due time ' came to order, as I am quite peace- able by nature, to say nothing about training. The greatest strain on our domestic relations arrwwed when Jemnie began “to attend a cooking scfiool. There she learned many new things and new methods of doing of things. Inci- Gentally I-learned a few things my- self, second hand. But the breaking point, or the mear-breaking point. was coffee. I had always flattered myself that I knew something about this soothing product. I bought it carefully, had it properly ground and carried ft home with punctual regularity. It was the cooking school that led to the crisis. “George, dear,” said Jennie, as I opened a fragrant can, “this must be done differently.” “Well?’ I ventured. “I mean,” she said, be ground.” “But it is ground,’ I answered. saw the man grind it myself.” ‘But, dear,” she went on, “you Gon’t imagine that I am going to let you drink coffee that has been put through the semmcn gerinder ‘of # grocery store!” So that was it! I was too precious to be imperiled by a drink that had been made in the old, plebelan way. There was certainly some comfort im that. Therefore, the best grade of domestic coffee-miH was bought and duly installed in the kitchen equipment, | ) The next morning I heard a furious grinding tn our apartment. Going to the kitchen I found Jennie hard at the task which had always been performed by our grocery boy. When she finished the grinding she looked at me. She did not say any- thing, but I got her message without the ald of the Marconi code. Then I reflected that no manly man would let his wife grind coffee, and I made up my mind that. I would do that part of the household work in future. And I did. I turned the crank daily. I nearly tore the machine from its fastenings on’ the wall.’ Then I shaved, as was cus- tomary, but alas, not as usual! I cov- ered up some of the results with court- Plaster and went downtown to think it over. | At last I concluded that I could not king opera- Plainly there I could stop I “that it must "- barber. Tantino was a mind He knew what I was thinking of every time I sat down. Under the speli of Tantino’s eloquence I was re- peatedly shaved, trimmed, massaged, and shampooed, until I longed for the time when I could keep a barber on my household employment list. Meanwhile I was spending some money with Tan- tino; but not as much as other people have spent with more pretentious seers and _ prophets. During all this time an idea was re- volving in my mind that would sepa- rate me from Tantino and make me again master of my cup and brush. It wouli also solve the overwhelming problem of the Gaily coffee grind. I have always been partial to pets. In my single loneliness I was attended by a strong and handsome squirrel, se- curely maintained in a brass cage. I ' gave him to old Mary when my bachelor days came to an end; I now longed for him again. I felt that he could help me. Bo’ I went to Mary and bought him back. His name was Hero and he lived up to it. I got him a new cage, con- taining the necessary rooms and bath. He had also the latest device in tread wheels... He traveled so fast that all I could see Of him was a furry tail hiding a body that seemed to make an incredible number of revolutions per minute. Here, surely, was energy going to waste. I took up the study of machin- ery. 1 delved into the science of belts and pilleys. YT found that units of ap- plied motion have to be increased in Girect. preportion to the volume of re- Sistante to be overcome. In short, I re- duced “h orsepower to squirrel power. I worked in the kitchen, night after night: Hero seemed to underst: nd what I wae doing: I» knew. that he was’ on my sid@ Jeritiie watched with amase- completed, and the motor was connected up, as the machinists gay. A belt hung from the wheel rim on the coffee mill. When the belt was thrown over the wheel projecting from the cage, Hero would do'the rest It took but a moment to adjust the belt. The next moment saw Hero at work. It was beautiful to watch the application of power. Hero started. His tread-wheel revolved and the grinding wheel inside the mill began to go round. ‘“T'll fill it up with coffee,” I said to Jennie. ‘“‘We might as well commence now.” ‘¥Tll tt up with ground coffee,”’ said Jennie. ‘‘Don’t make it too hard for poor Hero. Hero had no trouble with the ground coffee. When I. filled the mili with full-grown beans, however, my heart sank within me. The machine would not work! I looked at Hero and he looked at me. )I never saw such an expression before in the eye of man or beast. It was sorrow and failure combined. I was disgusted and discouraged. Here was my pet project knocked flat. How I wished that Hero had been born a bulldog imstead of a squirrel! Jennie soothed me as best she could. I went to bed and dreamed. Visions of power units came and went. Am- pheres, volts and rheostats cast their awful shadows over me. Like Cdlum- bus, Galileo and Lincoln, I had tried to rescue my fellow man from slavery. They had succeeded! I had failed! It was an hour beyond my usual time when I awoke in the morning. The aroma: of fresh coffee floated in from the kitchen: Had Hero put on a spurt? Ah, no! Jennie had arisen before me: my breakfast was ready. I ate it and went downtown with some courage, not unmixed with resignation. When I came home that night Jennie was all smiles. The dinner was per- fection. After dining she took my hand and led me to the kitchen. The squir- rel was discreetly covered from my sight. Jennie showed me plenty of new- ty ground coffee; but my eyes were fixed on the cage. It seemed to have grown since morn- ing. I went over to it and lifted the cover. Then I understood. My dear Jennie had exchanged Hero’s box ‘or one that was much larger. It now con- tained Hero—and three squirrels. Worm- an’s wit won! “It was only a question of power,” she said. “Your idea was all right; all you neéded was more units.”’’ After a triumph like that it was hard to have MacWalters butt iu. As my squirrels were grinding merrily, a few mornings later, I chanced to ‘look across the open court which sepa- rated us from the vacant apartment opposite. Vacant, did I say? No; it was now tenanted by an at- tractive young woman and MacWal- ters. They were shouting with giee. I knew that they had seen my squirrel motor at work. Hven as they looked I thought I saw the woman trying to conceal a field glass in the folds of her apron. So I gave our elevator boy a dollar to find out the names #f the two tenants. “Mr. and Mrs. MacWaters, sir,” he said to me that evening, ‘‘fine people, too. Just married and moved in. Gave money to the janitor and elevator man, fine people, sir.’’ Well, perhaps they are. I didn’t care. The squirrel motor was good enough for me. It worked splendidly, for a ttme. Then it came to a halt, which I hope will be only temporary. One evening after dinner our bell rang sharply, and Jennie admitted two men to our modest parlor. They wanted to see me. One of them had a brusk, busi- nesslike air. The other one looked de- cidedly clerical in dress and appearance. The business man gave me a card which indicated that he represented the S. P. 3 ae I was amazed. Then the clerical gentleman told me, with tears in his voice, of the shock- imals. He went on to say that house- hold pets should make a special ap- peal to our sympathies on account of their helpless condition and their ab- solute dependence on their human keep- ers. He had no desire to cause my arrest in this inatance,. although the use or abuse of my squirrels might fully warrant such a proceeding. I was speechless; but Jennie found her tongue. She wanted to know what was the penalty. “No penalty yet,” replied the busi- ness man. “It is customary in such cases, however, to make a small do- nation, as.an evidence of repentance and good faith.’’ What could I do? I wanted to fight, but there was poor Jennie! Something had to be done. it. “Here is a ten dollar bfll,”” she sald “Please place it to our credit.”’ That was nearly all. Then they went their way.

By John J. McGraw Manager of the Giants. j NEW YORK, Aug. 25. HE Athletics have been badly bent T within the last week, when they dropped three out of four to Cleve- land and had a tough time with the other clubs in the West which have been rated as easy picking. The whole team right through, from the pitching depart- ment to the outfielders, has been in a slump, but I do riot believe the Athletics will break entirely and lose the pennant for several reasons. The principal ground for my belief that the Athletics will play the Giants in the world’s series are that they have the na- tural strength which, combined with the lead that they possess at present, is a great little handicap to be overcome by any club in second place in the latter part of August. So much faith have the admirers of the Athletics in their ulti- mate success that they are now betting three to one on them in Philadelphia to win. And there are so many strangers in town, they tell me, that a lot of mon- ey has been bet at these odds, plenty of persons being ready to take the ‘‘one”’ end. It is true that the Athletics have been in 2 worse slump for the last 10 days than they have encountered at any other time this season or in 1910 or in 1911, when they won their world’s cham- pionships. Men, who have been consid- ered steady veterans, have gone all! off their normal form. Barry was taken out of the game last week because he was going badly, and Barry was consid- ered to be one of the infield mainstays. ‘Connie’ Mack put Oldring, a regular outfielder for the last several seasons, at shortstop, and he seems to be hand- ling the job in pretty good shape. The cracking of his veterans is what wor- ries a manager. Catchers Way Below Par. HE catching department is all T shot to pieces, and the Athletics have been forced to depend upon young Schang, who is putting in his first season in the big League, to do the bulk of the work recently. Jack Lapp broke his finger in De- troit the other day, and Lapp was the only veteran available, as broke his finger in batting practice before the game in Philadelphia three weeks ago. Both Bender and Plank fave shown distinct signs of weakening during this trip and have been beater with disconcerting frequency lately. The young pitchers, following the ex- amples of the veterans, have been falling off in their work, too. “Connie” Mack is up against a tough proposition at present. I know what it is, for I have faced it my- self, in fact did last August when the of the Glants, and my team seemed to be falling apart. It is then that a manager must drive, drive, drive, using all the means in his power to put his club back on its feet again. Mack can do this, and I believe he will come through with the cham- pionship finally for two reasons The Athletics are a team of fighters. I know this from my own experience with them. Let Cleveland draw up very close so that it looks as if the Naps were going to finally cop, and that Philadelphia bunch will fight like demons. Then they are sure to get out of this slump within a week, especially since they will be playing the St. Louls Browns. That club should pull a team out of any slump. The most alarming symptoms in the catchers and the fading of the pitch- ers. Veterans Too Har@ Worked. F Schang should be injured, and a catcher in the big league is a bad risk for an accident insurance com- pany, Mack weed be strictly up against tt for receivers. As far as I can find out frem baseball gessip and several talks with American Leaguers, there is nothing radically wrong with either Bender or Plank except too much work. They have not sore arms nor has either | Philadelphia now. Thomas | JOHN J. MOGRAW should fix them up, and Mack is trying to give them that now. If he can just keep comfortably ahead until these two pitchers get fit again, the Athletics should breeze through in strong style. Neither Bender nor Plank have ever been rated among the “iron men"’ of the game, and yet they have been doing the work of “iron men’ all season. I have wondered that neither was broken before this, but Mack worked them smoothly and cleverly to get the ‘ast ounce out of each bit of energy expend- ed, and it looks as if he had just about reached the mark. The reason I do not rate Cleveland as dangerous is because the club has never shown the punch when it has been up close to the Athletics at any time this season. The Naps had a grand chance to get into the immediate going after they had taken the series from ‘‘Connie’’ Mack in Cleveland last week and ap- peared to have the Athletics on the run. Their lead had been cut to five games anda half. The Philadelphia team went to Detroit and lost the first battle there, but Brimingham’s men dropped two to Washington right away. The Cleveland team cannot Keep out of & slump when the Athletics drop into one, and it will never win a pennant in this way. The same conditions have put. the Giants comfortably far in advance of The Phillies hung on to my club all the last Western trip, as if if they intended to make a race of it. — ee aaew-~--- padisiieiohes Nationals Still Hope to Beat Out Giants in Pennant Race. And then they came home and indulged in a slump which wiped them right out of the going. The trouble with the Phil- udelphia club has been the lack of enough good pitchers. As long as Seaton and Alexander were able to alternate in the box, practically, it was a close race. Giants’ Slump Expected. HE Giants have not been going any T too well lately, I'll admit, but it is a normal condition. They are out in front in pretty good shape, and a little slump was due. Word comes to me from Philadelphia that the Quakers have not yet given up the idea that they will win in a drive. “They are figuring over there,"’ a base- ball man from Dooin’'s town told me the other night, “that you will ease up now and that the players on the Giants will not hustle so hard, figuring that the championship is cinched. The Phillies hope to take another spurt in Septem- ber and catch the Giants off their guard and pass them before they can get go- ing again. Two things were responsible for the apparent slump of my club last week. The pitchers were not going very well, and we caught the Pittsburg team at its best time of the year and moving at the pace which was expected to win it a pennant before the season began. That is the great trouble with the Pi- rates. They are terrivly slow in getting under way, seldewm really starting be- fore late August or September. If they could break into sc:e league whose season began ‘n Sepcember and ran through the winter months, the Pitts- burg club would have a grand liftle chance. If Clarke’s team had shown the ball throughout the summer that they had on display at the Folo Grounds last week, they would hav? ¥en right vp in the race all year, as the «xperts predicic:i they wouid oefore the season negan. ee tt 1913, by John J. McGraw.) Outfielder Pratt’s Weak Second Sacking Nets Mackmen Victory ERRILL PRATT is proving con- [) Clusively by his actions around second base these days that he's an outfielder. Pratt tried hard to es- tablish his case last vear, and time was this spring when, with Balenti on the bench, he could have been given an opportunity to displace Jack John- ston. But for reason unknown Pratt remained on second. Derrill started the Browns on the road Cubs crept up to within three games: jin dizzy to ruin Sunday. He messed up two plays succession in the first frame and the resourceful men of Mack. by a judicious distribution of bunts, put together five runs before Manager Sto- vall had time to exercise the recall on Karl Weilman. The future champions won, 9—1. It was a keen disappointment for 10.000 fans, the heftiest turnout at Hedges’ Park during the Browns’ recent stand at home. The Browns went completely to smash in the ovening epic and the enemy batted around on Wellman. Dwight Stone than was called in and he checked the run-getting. Bender worked for the aliens and had the locals locoed. He was under wraps all the way. The Mackmen'’s opening attack was a beautiful exhibition of smart hitting. After Murphy beat out a bunt to Pratt. Oldring Athletics’ condition fs the shortage of. and Collins also followed with successful bunts. Mack then switched his aitack, BRa- ker ‘“‘hitting it out."’ His best was a pop to Pratt. but McInnis and Walsh followed with savage slams. each netting two has- socks and the show was salted right there.

He's superstitious and amused the fans Sunday by standing in one spot during his team's time at bat. He would carefully put his heels in the same tracks during each round. Eddie Collins had a big day. He gleaned besides hooking a hassock on a steal. His defensive work was on a par with his batting, the error charged to him being partly a wild throw by Barry. who was too hasty in trying for a double play. a... - Walter Johnson Needs Six More Victories to Smash Two Big Records Victory No. 14 in Walter Johnson's string of consecutive conquests, was «gleaned Sun- day in.

NEWPORT, R. I., Aug. 25.—Maurice McLoughlin of California and R. Norris Williams of Harvard, by winning their matches in today’s semifinals of the all-comers tennis tournament here, be- come the finalists in the event which entitles the victor to the championship of the country. The opponents for the title match were members of the tennis team which brought back the Davis interna- tional trophy from England, a few weeks ago. In the tournament abroad both men played two singles matches both beating Dixon, the British player, and both losing five-set matches to Parke, the other British singles star. McLoughlin today outclassed his for, Wallace Johnson, Pennsylvania State champion, 6—0, 7—5, 6—1. This was in the face of reports that Johnson ‘ad been beating McLoughlin in practice matches. Williams took it very easy with his op- ponent, Nathanial Niles. He won the first set, 6—4, and then let himself be put into the awkward position of 8—0 against him, in the second set. He worked out of it beau- tifully by winning three live games in @ row. Nevertheless, the set went to deuce, Williams winnings, Niles came strong in the third set and won, 3—6, but Johnson put on full steam in the last set and walked in, 6—1. McLoughlin is at hie top speed now, and is favorite to beat his youthful Harvard op- ponent tomorrow for the championship of the country. -_ - ("SA Municipal Golfers to Have Entire Week to Play the First Round While it lacked the class of city golf championships held under other .us- pices in the past, the municipal golf tourney, begun Saturday on the Forest Park links, proved a banner one in point of entry.

At that time the respective manage- ments pour the “‘next year’’ balm over the wounds and slip quietly through the schedule. ‘Next year,” when it rolls around, nearly always proves to be the twin of the year preceding. 2 > + Time to Get Busy. HIS time, however, there is hope for one St. Louis club—a contingent hope, depending much on who the mys- terious ‘‘next manager’ of the Browns proves to be. Whoever the new leader may be, he will have an improved lot of material to work with. The early de- spair that struck the fans here roused the club’s management to effort, with the result that some good players are coming up. Covington, now with the team, Walk- er, recently purchased from Kansas City for three players and a cash con- sideration, Manning and Walker, from Montgomery and other minor leaguers of reputation are on the list. - >. . Especially the Sluggers. FIRST SACKER, a shortstop and two sluggers will have to be found in order to help the club materially. The new material is as likely to furnish this as any yet obtained by any big league outfit. The pitchers and A REAL CATCHER the team already has, not to mention an outfielder who is SOME outfielder. * ° . ; More than ever it will be UP TO THE 1914 LEADER of the Browns to PUT THE PUNCH in the team; for, from the present outlook, the club own- Nh; in Local Baseball.

The St. Louis Feds have won four straight from Kansas City. While it is contrary to all the laws of baseball av- erages for any St. Louis club to win four straight games from anybody, it !s true, nevertheless. * . * Webster Groves, this State, is on the map, likewise in the swim.

HAT Jack O'Connor limit of $3500 has been blown sky high, as the deal which sent Allison, Compton and Brief and a bunch of cash to Kansas City for Clarence Walker, testifies. That's the most elaborate investment in a player the Browns ever made, on pa- per. The three players represent close to an aggregate of $7500, which would be the waiver price. The cash considera- tion is unknown in amount. The best previous price paid by the Browns. so far as has been made public, was thef said to havefl $5000 for Rube Waddell, changed hands when Connie Mack let loose the big incorrigible. * _ m A $3500 Goldbrick. HE Browns also cut loose with $3500 for Sailor Flannagan—and on a mere tip, too. A tip that for rankness had it on limberger in a high state of decay. That $3500 might as well have been used to light a perfecto, for all the Kood it acucmplished for Sailor Flan- ugain, Was the very Admiral of false alarms. Wiilingness to invest money counts for something, in baseball, and the raising of the limit in Camp Browns, is one of several encouraging signs for “Next year.”’ . . . A Horrible Example? “” AMES J. CORBETT, Kid MecCov and Catcher Larry McLean (until recently of the Cardinals’ celebrated ‘dry battery’’) will make a lecture tour fall. In support of prohibition they will endeavor to portray the evils of alcoholism. Larry McLean will be Exhibit A. Some Reason to Smile. NEW YORK report declares that every member of the New York Giants is crabbing and sour, except Mc- Lean. Larry is still emiling. He can't get over the accident of fate which shunted him from a tail-ender to a world’s series pie-cutter. a . * Not Yet Helpless. T HOSE poor, crippled Athletics must have thrown away their crutches on arriving in St. Louis. The manner in which they outran the Browns Sun- day indicates a reserve burst of speed that even the appalling hospital list sent out from Chicago two days ago does not appear to have handicaped. Mack virtually had his regular club In the fleld against the Browns, and it showed few signe of decrepitude. That it will be winging along at its best flight, about world’s series time, thee is little reason to doubt. Holders of world’s series tickets o% the Mackmen may sit tight. cree this .

It wee noted by the fans at Sportsman's Park Sur - day that Lavan, who has been with the Mackmen only four days, slready has changed his style of hitting. Mack wae asked if he was responsible for Lavan's new stance at the bat. “No, I didn't change his etyle; Dut of course we're al! taiking to him about his hitting. He met the ball squarely in Chi- cago. I itke this fellow." And this statement from Mack only deep- ens the Lavan mystery. Clarke Griffith says Lavan is destined to be the game's great- est. Col. Hedges predicts that Lavan wii! be a star in a few years; but with si. : Lavan was let go. When asked why, i.
